Between The Lightning Strikes: The Making Of Paul
"Paul" Review
Graeme Willy (Simon Pegg) and Clive Gollings (Nick Frost) are two man-child cybernerds from the U.K. on vacation in the good ole' U.S. of A to fulfill a lifelong dream of attending San Diego's Comic-Con to be followed by a tour of the mighty Southwest's greatest UFO hotspots. Pegg and Frost, lifelong friends and frequent collaborators, worked with director Edgar Wright on their last two films, the cult faves Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. This latest collaboration, Paul, is directed by Greg Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland) and finds the two Brit gents in a more amiable space - at least until a certain little alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) pops into their lives and turns their American holiday into an extraterrestrial adventure they will never forget.
Paul may very well present an interesting dilemma for fans of Pegg and Frost, many of whom thrived on the edgy irreverence of Shaun of the Dead and celebrated Hot Fuzz, a gleeful and celebratory action genre parody. Paul is edgy, but it's a more subdued edginess that constantly feels like it's on the edge of balls to the walls irreverence but never quite crosses the line. Similarly, Paul is an affectionate and surprisingly sweet ode to all things Spielbergian in the sci-fi world, an affection that leads to more than one delightful and well-timed cameo. Yet, as much a tribute to 70's and 80's sci-fi as is Paul, too often Pegg and Frost too often rely on that gimmick to sell the entire set-up and, more than once, obvious humor is set aside in favor of a laugh of familiarity at a line, a scene or a character from the past.
In all likelihood, the kinder and gentler nature of Paul comes courtesy of Greg Mottola, who may lack Edgar Wright's inventiveness and irreverence but who makes up for it with an ability to tap into the heartstrings unlike anything Wright has been able to put on screen thus far. If you could weave together every film that Mottola has directed so far in his career and toss in an alien, the result would be Paul. In short, while Paul feels like a lesser script from Frost & Pegg, there's no problem at all with Mottola, who takes this film where it needs to go and, perhaps arguably, ends up with a vastly different beast than would have been created with Edgar Wright at the helm.
Paul is part buddy flick, part road trip, part retro sci-fi and part good ole' fashioned chase flick. Things start off rather slowly with our boys partaking of the sensory feast known as Comic-Con, yet doing so in a way that feels soft and muted. It's as if Pegg and Frost knew that it was these fanboys (and girls) who have made them famous, and they go to great pains to poke ever so gentle fun at them. It's too gentle.
However, once Comic-Con is over the boys hit the road we get a delightful array of unusual characters, from an alien-friendly waitress (a well disguised Jane Lynch) to a bible-quoting campground queen named Ruth (Kristen Wiig, who gives what may be her most well-rounded and appealing performances yet) they meet shortly after a very earthly crash landing brings Paul into their lives.
Speaking of Paul. It's when Paul shows up that Paul the film really takes off. As Mars Needs Moms proved this past week, you have to sell an alien and an alien's story just right or nobody, as Disney found out, nobody shows up.
Paul gets it right. Paul is a foul-mouthed, scrawny and goofy little bugger who has been held by the U.S. government for the past 60 years since a crash landing on our planet. During that time, he's shared his wealth of knowledge (Dare I say "universal?") with the government, world leaders and even filmmakers (Agent Mulder was his idea!). However, his well of knowledge is running dry and the government has just about figured out that the only way to get anything else out of him is to take his brain.
Oh, wait. That involves killing him. Yikes.
Paul, as he's known (and, yes, it is explained in the film!), escapes from an agent who is transporting him but has another agent on his trail (a deliciously deceptive Jason Bateman) and two underlings (Bill Hader and Joe Lo Truglio) under the watchful eye of "The Big Guy," whose identity I won't spoil here.
Paul is created as an absolutely delightful and wonderful alien, a sort of stoner E.T. who is unquestionably far more advanced than any human he encounters but who is, yes, also possessing of some hilariously humble human qualities.
After almost a decade of working together, it's not surprising that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost exhibit a laid back, easygoing comfort with one another. This has to be one of the few films where the inevitable gay stereotypes can't possibly be considered that offensive, because these two gents feel so comfortable together that the idea of coupledom isn't that far out of the ballpark.
For my taste, Paul rests squarely between the sheer genius of Shaun of the Dead and the more low-key yet still entertaining Hot Fuzz. Paul will be infinitely more entertaining if you actually "get it," if you understand its cinematic and pop culture references and recognize its lines, scenes and characters. It's hard to imagine, actually, that fans of virtually anyone who is in this film will be disappointed as everyone is clearly on the same page as Pegg, Frost and director Greg Mottola. While Paul never achieves comedic greatness, it is so funny and genuinely good-spirited the majority of the time that it's impossible to not enjoy time with these people.
It should go without saying that Pegg and Frost are once again a delight together, Frost being much more front and center than is usually true for these two. Kristen Wiig is absolutely perfect as Ruth, whose initial repulsion of the ironically more humanist Paul leads to a mind-melding encounter and a sort of shapeshifting consciousness for the blossoming young woman. Jason Bateman is cast perfectly, a rather stoic straight man amongst a sea of lunacy, while Blythe Danner shows up near the end and practically steals the show as the grown up woman who first discovered Paul's presence when she was a little girl.
Paul is filled with a kaleidoscope of 70's and 80's tunes, and D.P. Lawrence Sher's camera work nicely captures the action sequences and the frequently larger than life facial expressions. Kudos, as well, to the entire special effects team for creating a vastly superior alien in 2-D than the folks over at Disney could muster up with Zemeckis's almost dead and buried stop-motion capture crap.
While Paul may never quite achieve the greatness for which it constantly seems on the verge, the film is without a doubt one of early 2011's most pleasant surprises and yet another genuinely entertaining, affectionate and heartwarming slice of American culture from the hearts and minds of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.

Trmalova vila je patrová stavba v pražských Strašnicích postavená v  letech 1902 až 1903 tehdy jednatřicetiletým Janem Kotěrou pro ředitele veřejné obchodní školy Františka Trmala z Toušic (1866–1945) a jeho ženu Růženu. Nachází se v ulici Vilová 91/11. Jedná se o první pražský realizovaný projekt rodinného domu od Jana Kotěry a jednu z nejvýznamnějších tamních staveb. Vila – jedna z Kotěrových prvních prací – je postavena v duchu anglické moderny, avšak objevují se v ní i prvky české lidové architektury. Součástí objektu je též zahrada s roubenou kůlničkou a prostory pro hospodářská zvířata. Dnes je v budově muzeum Jana Kotěry.

Dějiny budovy

Projekt pochází z roku 1902, vila byla dokončena v roce 1903. Již za osm let, roku 1911, ji však František Trmal prodal manželům Wálkovým. V roce 1945 nad budovou byla vyhlášena národní správa a roku 1950 přešla do vlastnictví státu, který zde zřídil kulturní středisko. V té době byla i opatřena nepůvodním červeným nátěrem. Po Sametové revoluci se stává majetkem Městské části Praha 10, avšak docházelo k rychlému chátrání. Na přelomu 20. a 21. století (v letech 1998 až 2001) byla budova zrekonstruována a restaurována a od 1. dubna 1999 je zpřístupněna veřejnosti. V současné době vila slouží jako Kotěrovo centrum – odborné studijní zařízení pro badatele v oblasti architektury bydlení, s malou expozicí přibližující dílo Jana Kotěry.

Popis budovy

Stavba byla postavena na tehdejší periferii města (okolní domy byly vybudovány až po druhé světové válce). Budova je jednopatrová s výraznou střechou. Ta je na průčelí ozvláštněna četnými detaily, arkýři, komíny, hrázděnými štíty a vikýři. Ústředním místem stavby je patrová schodišťová hala, v níž je malovaný trámový strop. V přízemí budovy se nacházela kuchyně s jídelnou, salón a pokoj pro služku. V patře pak dětský pokoj a ložnice.

Architekt vedle domu samotného navrhl i okolní zahradu, do které umístil křivolaké cestičky a okrasné keře. Zahrada byla z budovy dříve přístupná otevřenými verandami, takže s domem vytvářela jeden celek a měla navozovat atmosféru venkovského bydlení. Celý pozemek byl obehnán plaňkovým plotem, který se však již nedochoval.

ELIZABETH SHAFIROFF
PRESIDENT/BOARD MEMBER
Elizabeth (Liz) became involved in animal rescue in her early twenties when she adopted her first dog: Rusty, a Shiba-Inu rescue who came from a kill shelter in Kentucky. This began her strong affinity for all animals, and she soon became a foster mom for pitbulls who were scheduled to be euthanized at New York City's Animal Care & Control Centers. Years later, she began traveling outside of the United States and was shocked by the overpopulation crisis of stray animals and the suffering of working animals.
On her first trip to Nicaragua, Liz began seeking out local animal rescuers and veterinarians in an attempt to learn more about the stray and working animals that seemed to be everywhere she turned. Liz was immediately moved and inspired by their dedication and passion for animals despite not having the resources they needed for their work, largely due to a lack of funding. Global Strays emerged from her desire to help these rescuers, local veterinarians, economically disadvantaged pet owners, and their communities.
Ingrid Arneberg
Ever since Ingrid and her grandmother rescued, rehabilitated and released an owl when she was a little girl in Indiana, she has been passionate about taking in animals and rescuing them. Ingrid believes that because animals are here with us, on this planet, as fellow beings, it is our responsibility to be their voice and take care of them. Their love is unconditional and they bring magic to our lives.
She is a member of The Raw Food Chef Alliance. She is working on her raw food chef certification with the Pachavega Raw Food Culinary Institute based out of Nicaragua.
Ingrid is on the Honorary Board of the Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center in the Hamptons. She is also on the board of the Guardian Angels, where there is an Ingrid Arneberg Animal Rescue Van that responds to animal emergencies, animal neglect and abuse, as well as spay and neutering.
She loves all dogs and animals, but Ingrid has a soft spot for Akitas, a notoriously misunderstood breed. It is extremely important to Ingrid to continue to help animals around the world that need care.
LINDSAY FEINSTEIN
Lindsay discovered her passion for animals when she rescued her first kitten at the age of 4 and nursed him back to health. Since then Lindsay has been a constant supporter of animal non-profit organizations including Best Friends Animal Society in Los Angeles, The ASPCA of New York City, and Austin's Yorkie Haven Rescue program. Lindsay currently has a nearly 17-year-old Yorkie named Mia whom she rescued at 3 months of age.
LEYLA LIGOURI
It was at a young age Leyla developed a love and passion for animals. Having spent endless hours at the stable, she learned the meaning of responsibility and compassion. About four years ago, Leyla took in a rescue pit-bull named Frankie. Having grown such a deep love for him, Leyla felt obligated to better educate herself on the misunderstood breed. Through Frankie and her own research, Leyla has been able to change people's perception of pit-bulls; her goal is to continue to create awareness on the breed.
JEAN SHAFIROFF
Jean especially fell in love with animals when her oldest daughter decided to adopt Charlie, a chihuahua. Since then the family has owned several rescue dogs and cats. For many years Jean Shafiroff has served on the Honorary Board of the Southampton Animal Shelter and has chaired their gala for many years and, she was honored by them at their Annual Gala in 2017. For the past few years she has served as the Ambassador for the Southampton Animal Shelter and as an Ambassador for American Humane. Jean is an animal activist who believes that animals should be treated with dignity and respect

It seems impossible that we're approaching the three-year anniversary of when my husband went into the hospital ... and didn't come home for a long time.
Sometimes it seems like just yesterday, and sometimes it seems like a lifetime ago. So much has happened since then.
If you haven't been reading this blog for that long, the short story is that he drove himself to the clinic, they sent him to the ER and shortly afterwards he was in the ICU awaiting surgery. Things went wrong, they told me there was no hope - pick a time to pull the plug - and the next day he woke up and his condition started improving. Slowly.
Meanwhile our money situation was dire, and hospitals aren't cheap. Although I hated the idea, I wrote a blog post and asked for donations. I was overwhelmed with the generosity of strangers. And grateful to friends. And astonished at how my life could go from worrying about whether Bob would have a home to come home to ... to being comfortable spending time with him, knowing that the bills would be paid for a short while. I could breathe for a while.
It was the worst time of my life, and also the most amazingly wonderful time, when I realised how wonderful people really are. I felt very loved and very comforted at a time when I needed it most. And it wasn't even the money, but it was the fact that so many people were so caring.
I promised the universe that when I was in a position to give back, I would. I'm a big believer in karma, and in doing good without expectations of payback. Paying it forward, so to speak. And paying back when good things have come your way.
Have a cookie. Photo from From Cupcakes to Caviar.
For me, that payback time is now. And I'm asking you to help me with that payback. Please.
My friend Janet Brand - you might know her from the blog From Cupcakes to Caviar - just asked online for prayers and good wishes, and when I pressed her for details, she reluctantly told me.
Janet's husband's company recently stopped providing health insurance for spouses, and the family can't afford to pay for private health insurance to cover Janet. They're one of the many families who make too much money to get free insurance, but who struggle every month over paying monthly bills, food, and other expenses, and there's not enough left for that big insurance bill every single month.
I know exactly what that's like. I was there, too. So, like me, she crossed her fingers and hoped that everything would be fine. And ... she's not. She's experiencing symptoms of a very treatable type of cancer. She knows it well because it runs in the family. She knows what the future looks like, but she can't afford to pay for treatment, and she can't afford medical insurance.
She was asking for prayers and good thoughts, but what I want for her is medical help.
So, here's the plan. I twisted her arm really really hard, and she set up a GoFundMe campaign to collect money to pay for her insurance and her deductible. She's not asking for money for a blogger trip, or a new dishwasher. She's not asking for money to buy shoes. She needs money for basic healthcare to save her life.
Janet has two children who need her a lot (besides the ones who are grown) - one in grade school, and the other is special needs. It's not like she can run out and get a job, because childcare would cost more than she could earn. She's a hardworking gal who takes care of her kids, her house, her husband, and her blog. Now she needs some help taking care of herself.
Janet is one of the funniest people I know, and I absolutely refuse to lose another friend because they delayed medical treatment.
If you have some spare money, consider sending some to her GoFundMe campaign. She's only asking for enough to cover insurance and the deductible for a year, but I'd love to see her get a cushion to cover food and maybe some childcare, because there may be some days when she's not going to have a whole lot of energy for daily tasks.

She didn't want to ask for money, and she only agreed when I pointed out that her children really need her. And then she thought about it.

C-130 with Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System grounded
08/08/2013 03/07/2012 przez Redakcja Świat
In what officials describe as "a prudent measure," all military C-130 aircraft equipped with the Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System have been placed on operational hold after one of the aircraft crashed yesterday.
A MAFFS-equipped C-130 from the North Carolina Air National Guard's 145th Airlift Wing crashed while battling a fire in southwestern South Dakota at about 6:30 p.m. Mountain time yesterday, officials said.
"There were casualties, and our thoughts and prayers go out to those who were injured and those who lost their lives," U.S. Northern Command officials said in a written statement today. "The family members of these airmen are especially on our minds. We will provide further details on the status of the casualties soon."
The cause of the crash has not been determined, and the incident is under investigation, officials said. At the time of the crash, the crew was fighting the White Draw Fire near Edgemont, S.D.
Yesterday's crash was the first in the 40-year history of the MAFFS program, a joint Defense Department and U.S. Forest Service program that provides additional aerial firefighting resources when commercial and private air tankers are no longer able to meet the Forest Service's needs. MAFFS is a self-contained aerial firefighting system owned by the Forest Service that can discharge 3,000 gallons of water or fire retardant in less than five seconds, covering an area a quarter of a mile long by 100 feet wide.
The MAFFS-equipped fleet is spending today getting the crews together to "reflect, reset and review," said Air Force Col. Jerry Champlin, 153rd Air Expeditionary Group commander. "We all need to make sure our crews and planes will be ready to re-engage in the mission safely."
U.S. Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell said the agency is deeply saddened by this tragic incident. "The agency fully supports the decision by the military to stand down its MAFFS operation to address the needs of personnel and families and ensure the safety of the mission when it resumes," he said. "The agency will continue to allocate available firefighting assets according to the prioritization of incidents."
It is not known when the MAFFS aircraft will resume operations, officials said.

Meet Daisy, the 'Perpetually' Pregnant Christian MILF of OnlyFans
Raised in a strict Christian household that gave her conflicting messages about sex, she has channeled all her sexual energy into her now-infamous submissive housewife persona
If you looked through Daisy's OnlyFans, you'd think she was constantly pregnant. After all, she tells me, nine months of pregnancy can yield up to four years worth of videos and pictures. That said, she's not currently pregnant, though she's hoping to change that by April.
Daisy, a mom of three, never shows her full face in her content, and is hesitant to reveal too many details about her identity. But even with much of her face obscured, it's clear she's the embodiment of a specific all-American fantasy of a hot Christian mom: blonde, white, bosomous, full-lipped and, of course, pregnant. If blonde isn't your thing, no problem — she's got wigs in every color. And while she does feature both pregnant and non-pregnant content, the former is her signature, part of the fertile, breedable image she's built for herself.
Though Daisy isn't currently religious, she promotes herself as a "good little church girl gone wild" and was raised within a sect of Christianity (she declines to say which) that taught her sex was strictly for reproduction. Along those lines, it was considered her duty as a woman to "multiply and replenish the earth with Christian babies." And so, her OnlyFans has presented the opportunity to turn all this on its head. She can be as horny and sexually liberated as she pleases while still enjoying motherhood and the sensuality of pregnancy. More than that, she can help some of her 30,000-plus subscribers, many of whom have been raised within the same ideology, see the power in doing the same.
Before the pandemic, Daisy was a business consultant for tech start-ups, where she helped establish their customer relationship management processes. This job took her around the country, often working well beyond a typical 9-to-5 schedule. "I missed out on my older kids' childhoods because I was working my ass off in an office for 15 hours a day, making like $50,000 a year," she says. "At the time, I thought, 'This is good, I'm setting myself up for my future.' But I missed their younger years. And now, I just had another baby, and I'm finally able to be home with him all day. I have to consciously always remind myself that it's a privilege and a blessing that I get to be home."
She gets to do this, of course, because of OnlyFans. When the pandemic shut down her ability to work, a former boyfriend (Daisy and her husband are in an open relationship) texted her out of the blue to say that the sexy photos she'd previously enjoyed taking for him would be a good fit for OnlyFans. His wife, he told her, was making around $4,000 to $5,000 a month doing the same thing. As it turns out, he was totally right.
Daisy was able to share the natural parts of her sexuality — being submissive, having a breeding kink — for an audience eager for this type of content, particularly when it featured her pregnant. "It's the fantasy of someone who can be just a completely normal mom and someone that you go to church with, but also has these desires," she says. "It makes [subscribers] feel comfortable, talking to a motherly type of character. It makes them feel more vulnerable, and so they're able to fantasize and relate more. A lot of them will be like, 'Oh my gosh, yes, I finally found a church page — I'm so turned on by you being a Christian, and also a naughty one.'"
Again, while Daisy isn't always pregnant, the persona she's built for herself on OnlyFans is true. She really is a housewife and a stay-at-home mom, and OnlyFans allows her to enjoy that life even more. She has to be careful not to spend all her time working on her OnlyFans, however. She might have help for posting content and managing the page, but she still responds to every message herself.
This presents its own battle, as she has to choose when to work and when to enjoy just being home with her family. "There are hours where I say to myself, 'I could have just made $500,'" she says. "But I'd rather just be sitting here reading books to my kids. So it's something I keep in mind, because there's no amount of money that's out there that would be worth sacrificing these everyday moments I'm living."
Luckily, these everyday moments are exactly why Daisy's fans like her so much. "I'm really into the whole 1950s housewife thing as a kink," she says. "I know other people are, too, so I just decided to show that off because that's the reality for me. I can take a video of me washing dishes without a bra on, and that's literally something I would be doing, anyway."
With her next pregnancy on the horizon, Daisy doesn't plan on changing up her lifestyle anytime soon either. She'll once again shoot throughout the entirety of the pregnancy, showing off different wigs and outfits to keep things interesting, storing up several years worth of content to share. She might not be able to stay pregnant forever, but on OnlyFans, she can at least pretend.

The past twelve months have seen a major correction in growth stocks in Canada and throughout the world. As I write this newsletter, I sense that this correction is coming to an end and that new leadership in the stock market is beginning to emerge. With the unanticipated Brexit now behind us, markets appear to be settling down and record low interest rates make equities the most attractive asset class to own for most investors.
We believe that the global demographic slowdown is behind much of the social and political instability we face in the world. Growing dissatisfaction by voters in Europe, the UK, and the US is in part related to the fact that economic growth and therefore opportunities for better jobs and prospects are becoming scarcer. The outlook for demographic growth, and by this I mean growth of the employable part of the population in most advanced economies, is modest and likely to stay that way for a while. Thus, I suspect we will face a restless and dissatisfied world for some time to come.
Against this backdrop of modest growth, we are still finding high growth companies trading at attractive multiples. We are in a sense reloading the portfolio with companies for which we see the growth opportunities in the next cycle. This process started in Q2 and is continuing in Q3 as we take profits in some companies and establish or add to positions in growth stocks that we think can beat the market in the coming 5-7 years.
The first half of 2016 has seen a major correction in growth stocks and resurgence in materials and precious metals stocks. For example, Gold stocks were up on average by 94%1 in the first half of 2016 while technology stocks were down 6%2. During this time the S&P TSX Composite Total Return Index rose 9.84%3, while the Capital Ideas Fund was down 9.56%4 over the same time period. We expect better returns in the second half of the year.
I started my career as an equity analyst in Singapore in 1992. At that time, SE Asia was in the midst of a major economic boom, and growth companies were easy to find. Most of the growth companies I encountered were focused on a rapidly growing population and/or rapidly growing incomes amongst a nascent middle class. Virtually all of these companies were growing organically and didn't need to acquire other companies. In the early 1990s, most companies in SE Asia could grow quickly simply by increasing production, adding locations, or expanding in some other way into a rapidly growing market.
When I returned to Canada, I was able to get a job fairly quickly as an analyst, and the first company I initiated coverage on was a small engineering services company based in Edmonton. Stantec was founded by Dr. Don Stanley in 1954 and went public in 1994. At the time that I initiated coverage of Stantec, the company had revenues of roughly $212MM, and was largely unknown in the investment world given its small, $79MM market capitalisation. The company also had a new CEO, Tony Franceschini.
Q. Stantec is growing by acquisition, acquiring engineering and consulting firms consisting of 50-250 professionals. Why not just hire 50-250 engineers from engineering schools and the marketplace?
A. Engineering firms have sticky client relationships. While recurring revenue is not guaranteed, if the prices a firm charge for its services are fair and the quality of the work is high, a significant amount of repeat business comes to the firm. A group of engineers that we could potentially hire have tremendous skills, but they don't have the entrenched client relationships that drive the profitability of our industry.
Q. But the companies you acquire are not free. You are paying a premium compared to what it would cost to simply hire more engineers. Is it worth it?
A. That's a good question. We employ over 2,000 professionals at the moment and we have asked some of the smartest people in the company to analyse this very issue. What we have discovered is that if we can acquire other professional engineering companies at a low multiple of EBITDA, a start-up is unlikely to be anywhere near as attractive from a return on capital perspective both in the short term and long run. In making these calculations, the valuation discipline we employ is critical. We often meet with a firm that is potentially for sale, and they initially balk at our price. But many return to the table and accept our price for reasons ranging from a lack of other options to their desire to sell to a firm that cares about culture and quality.
Q. Are there other benefits from growing by acquisition rather than growing organically?
A. Yes. We now have unique engineering expertise all over the world and our management systems are geared to cross-selling those skills in markets in which we have recently acquired a company. The fact that we sell these services through existing relationships is critical. This is hard to quantify, but I can list many examples in the past year where we won major contracts and the recently acquired firm, which didn't possess the skill set at the time of acquisition, nonetheless played a critical role in helping Stantec get into the competition and in many cases win the contract.
A few years after I initiated coverage of Stantec, I became a financial services analyst and therefore didn't maintain coverage of the stock. But Stantec continues to execute its strategy and is now one of the largest engineering services companies in the world. Gross revenues are now approaching $3.0BN and the total number of employees stands at more than 22,000. From a shareholder perspective, the story is equally impressive. At the end of 1999, the stock was trading at $1.39 and today it trades at $33.62. Including dividends, Stantec has delivered a compounded annual growth rate of 23% over the past 16 years. Amazing!
From time to time, a few companies that are growing by acquisition blow up in a very public way, leading some pundits to argue that any company that grows through acquisition is somehow less attractive than a company that derives most or all of its growth from organic sources. What these pundits fail to see is that all companies can falter if they make poor capital allocation decisions, which can be broadly stated as 1) they acquire bad businesses and assets, 2) they pay too much or 3) they use too much leverage. The pundits argue that the growth-by- acquisition model is simply a bad model, whereas I argue that any company that allocates its capital poorly and/or uses too much debt will find itself in the dog house, regardless of whether or not it is an organic grower or a growth-by-acquisition company. In fact, I would argue that in some industries, growth-by-acquisition is in fact the superior model.
Consider the fast food business. Let's say one owns a Tim Hortons location in downtown Toronto and that one has owned it for a decade. There are line-ups every morning for coffee, and the profit margins on coffee are very large. But it's been that way for a decade, so organic growth is limited. The owner of that Tim Hortons can double or even triple her expenditures on advertising but she is unlikely to get an increase in organic growth that justifies the increase in advertising. The smart thing is NOT to allocate capital to advertising. She owns a cash cow, and the smartest allocation of capital she can undertake is almost certainly to open another location.
But let's assume that there are no "new" locations available in Toronto. However, there are several other Tim Hortons owners in the area who are ready to retire, and might be willing to sell. She can do the math on their cash flows and make an offer to acquire these locations at a price that she can justify in terms of her cost of funds, hurdle rate, etc. Opening a new location in downtown Toronto is not an option, but acquiring existing stores might be the most intelligent way for her to grow her business. As she moves from one store to two, or ten or a hundred, then the attractiveness of this acquisition strategy might be significantly better than might appear to the casual observer given the possibility of synergistic benefits that come with scale.
The gas station industry has a similar dynamic. Let's assume you own 30 gas stations in Toronto. All 30 stations are very profitable and traffic flow is strong but not growing appreciably. However, getting a permit to build a new station in Toronto is nearly impossible. Increasing revenues by adding food, coffee, etc. has already been done. Like the Tim Hortons example, increasing revenues through advertising yields poor results. Thus, as the owner of the 30 stations, you have a veritable cash cow, but the only way to grow is either to start "greenfield" stations outside of Toronto or to buy out other station owners in your area of operations. Once again, as the owner of the 30 stations, you can work the numbers and decide at what price it makes sense to acquire versus at what price it makes sense to expand in the hinterlands. As your chain of gas stations expands, synergies probably exist that make the economics of buying existing stations even more attractive than might appear to the owner of a single location.
IT services and software companies appear to have a dynamic that is similar to that of Stantec. Companies like Donville Kent use software and IT services in our day-to-day operations, and the use of these companies' software and services is now quite entrenched in our firm. Everyone at Donville Kent is used to using the suite of software and IT services that is in place. The hassle of changing either software or IT services companies is significant (or at least perceived to be). Economists sometimes refer to this issue as "barriers to exit." The incentives to try a different product are low because the costs of changing over are perceived to be high.
Many software and IT services companies are viewed as attractive investments because a significant part of their revenues are recurring or "nearly" recurring. The clients are sticky in large part because the barriers to exit are high or perceived to be high. But the strength of the recurring revenue model cuts both ways. A software company with sticky client relationships competes with other software companies that also have sticky client relationships. One can only spend so much on advertising and promotion to lure away customers, because most of the potential targets will ignore this message. They can't be bothered with the hassles (real or perceived) with changing software companies. Thus, for many software and IT services companies, the best option for growth is to buy companies that are for sale as a means of acquiring new client relationships.
Companies in the fast food, gas station and software industries will continue to grow extremely effectively through acquisitions. However, this model, like any type of model, must be underpinned by intelligent capital allocation decisions. In Appendix 1, we provide a write-up on CRH Medical, a company that is growing primarily by acquisition. The report was prepared by Callum Scott, a summer intern from the University of Guelph, under the supervision of the DKAM team. Other companies we own that are growing by acquisition and are making consistently good choices with respect to the allocation of capital include TIO Networks, Biosyent, Spin Master, Constellation Software, Boyd, CGI, Open Text, Alimentation Couche-Tard, Enercare, and MTY Food Group.
A lack of demographic growth has led to slower economic growth throughout the world. Thus, finding growth companies is becoming challenging but not impossible. But don't be discouraged. My feeling is that the big winners in the coming decade are going to come from 1) companies that invent, make, or sell "new things" that nobody owns yet. Such companies typically operate in knowledge-based industries and, 2) companies that are superb capital allocators. My goal is to find the next Stantec, Paladin Labs, or Constellation Software. Some of the companies, like Dollarama and Home Capital, will be companies that grow primarily through organic means. But I sense that the majority of the companies we invest in will be companies in which a significant amount of their growth will come from acquisitions. Regardless of which types of companies we own, all will be superb capital allocators.
After beating the market for eight years in a row, we find ourselves trailing the market at mid-year by a significant margin for the first time since we started in 2008. However, we feel we have repositioned the portfolio intelligently and Q3 is off to a good start. Keep your fingers crossed. I am optimistic for the balance of the year.
Once again, much thanks to my wonderful team – Jordan, Ali, Jesse, Chris, Dominika, James, and Callum – and for the ongoing support of our loyal investors.

Okay, so I drove down this street because I got lost while trying to find my way to go shopping. The street seemed to be too small to me. Or maybe it was the way that everyone parked on this street, none the less it was annoying. There were kids walking accross the street while everyone was trying to drive by one another without scratching eachother's cars. It was absolutely rediculous how it all went. I will never ride through there again but there are a few cute houses that I would love to take a peak into if I had the chance to .


Pinpoint Sizing....the X70 had an automatic auto-tuning pinpoint that many including myself were not fond of. We jumped into Prospecting mode to do our pinpointing, especially in trashy areas. Now the X705 has what is a VCO based manually de-tunable pinpoint. Hallelujah! Say Amen! You can select either mode that you want to use. For open areas with little trash and widely dispersed targets, you can go the Lazyman's Lobster route with the original pinpoint mode. For trash hunting use the "sizing" mode to isolate targets and size/shape them. If in sizing mode, when you push the button to pinpoint, two little quick blips/bleeps are heard to notify you that you are in "sizing" mode. For many this will dramatically cut down on the time of locating and recovering targets.

Taiwan December export orders rise for fifth month, but momentum slows

TAIPEI (Reuters) – Taiwan's December export orders grew for a fifth straight month but slower than forecast, raising some concerns that demand for its tech shipments will cool after the year-end holiday season.
Asia's 2016 electronics bounce is showing some staying power, underpinning the region's export-dependent economies as headwinds intensify because of rising global trade frictions.
The island's manufacturers are wary about U.S. trade policy as Donald Trump prepares to be sworn in as president later on Friday, with his protectionist agenda casting a cloud over the outlook on global trade.
Taiwan is benefiting from the tech cycle recovery, but it is also one of the most vulnerable to U.S.-China trade tensions, DBS said in a research note.
"The upcoming developments in U.S.-China economic and political ties after Trump's inauguration should be watched closely," the bank said.
Taiwan's annual orders rose 6.3 percent in the final month of 2016, below the 8.9 percent pace expected in a Reuters poll and also slower than November's 7 percent rise.
The value and pace of growth of export orders in January is expected to be lower than December, the economics ministry said when it issued the data on Friday.
"In the second half, we need to see how the overall economy is doing and whether new model smartphones will be able to attract demand," ministry official L.J. Lin told a news conference. She said U.S. trade policies will also be watched.
Taiwan's manufacturers are bracing for the traditionally low season for tech demand in the first quarter. Export orders are a leading indicator for actual exports 2-3 months ahead.
Taiwan's actual exports in December bounced to a four-year high and a key manufacturing activity gauge showed operating conditions at their best in nearly six years, pointing to new business ahead at home and abroad.
The world's largest contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co <2330.TW> warned last week of weaker business prospects for the current quarter due to the smartphone sector.
Taiwan's export orders showed stable gains last month in components related to smartphone manufacturing.
Information and communication goods orders in December rose 7.2 percent from a year earlier, faster than November's 6.9 percent, while orders for electronic goods climbed 8.1 percent, but were off from November's 10.1 percent pace.
Taiwan's orders in 2016 contracted for the second year in a row, but the value of orders for information and communication goods hit a record high of $133.5 billion, while those for electronics goods at $118.65 billion, was the second highest on record.
Taiwan manufacturers will be closely watching what policies Trump will enact to protect American jobs, as many operate factories in China.
The ministry's Lin, however, noted that a lot of Taiwan's export orders are sourced from the United States. "We have existing cooperations, so if manufacturing moves to the United States, it may not affect our orders as much," she said.

Mark Hughes dismissed claims that Brighton were hard done by after being denied a penalty during Stoke's 2-2 draw on their first-ever visit to The Amex.
And he applauded his team's performance after making it four points from six in their last two away games to show they have what it takes to roll out big results under pressure.
Brighton were screaming blue murder for a penalty – and seemed to have a case – when skipper Ryan Shawcross caught striker Glenn Murray inside the Stoke box in the first half.
Shawcross later intimidated he might have been lucky to escape punishment from referee Lee Mason amid an outcry from Brighton.
But Hughes said afterwards: "I had a look at it. My initial reaction was I felt the lad splayed his legs to get some contact and it was minimal contact on Ryan's heel.
Stoke City led on their first-ever visit to The Amex when Max Choupo-Moting outwitted defender Lewis Dunk to notch his third goal for the club.
Stoke then survived that penalty shout before Brighton were level just before the break when Pascal Gross swept home, but Stoke nosed back in front less than two minutes later when Kurt Zouma headed his first goal for the club from close quarters.
Brighton will feel they then deserved their second-half equaliser on the balance of play and refereeing decisions when Columbian Jose Izquierdo fired home following Stoke's failure to clear.
But Hughes admitted to mixed feelings afterwards, explaining: "I think our initial reaction is tinged with disappointment. Obviously, any away point gained is a good performance usually and a good result, but having got into a winning position on two occasions that's where our disappointment lies.
"The goals we conceded could have been avoided. We made a couple of mistakes on the first one and it was a similar story for the second one.
"I didn't feel Brighton were able to create anything of real significance in general play and never really got up a head of steam because of a good away performance in nullifying their threat and qualities.
"Overall, a good point and we will take it, but maybe that slight hint of disappointment.
Hughes added that he wasn't too flustered by Murray's ugly lunge at Kevin Wimmer soon after being denied his penalty.
Opposite number Chris Hughton said after the game that he remained convinced from the off that Murray should have won a spot kick.
Stoke's draw left them 15, but joint 12 on goal difference, ahead of Saturday's return trip south to face bottom club Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

A couple of weeks ago, Bill Geist, a correspondent for "Sunday Morning" on CBS, presented this humorous segment about a new book called PS: I Hate it Here. After watching the video, let us know what you think. (Please note that YouTube may contain objectionable content.) What can we as Christian camping professionals take away from these campers' letters to Mom and Dad?
That is TOO funny! Love it… Funny thing is, I remember those days! I remember being driven 2 hours home at the back of a school bus all by myself with just a very large city driver at the front of the bus. In retrospect, it was less scary to stay at camp! It didn't stop me, however, from returning year after year and building some incredible memories. Now my life is camp…go figure!


You should always ask yourself, "What happens when a user gets no search results?" Instead of only offering the user a message that says "no results found" try including specific, actionable suggestions to help the user get search results.
Speaker 1: Another tip that I give a lot of times around usability in search, again looking at results, is what happens if somebody doesn't get anything? Let's say that they use either some really complex search query, or maybe they completely slaughter the spelling of something or something like that. What happens?
One of the important things is, that a lot of times, all you get is like what we're seeing here. Here, I've searched on "Big Monkey," misspelling monkey. A lot of times, on most systems, this is what you get, "Your search did not return any relevant results," or any results or whatever it might be, and where that actually does give the user feedback, it actually lets them know, "You didn't get any results," overall the problem is that it's not really being helpful. If you have a user that is having some kind of issue and not really understanding something, you're missing a great opportunity to be able to help educate that user, just in time, so right as they make the error.
In this particular case, SharePoint Search 2010 actually does a pretty decent job of this. Don't be afraid to take it a step further. In the 2010 Search, actually a lot of times it gives you the suggestions, makes sure all words are spelled correctly, try different keywords, try more general words, and additional resources and that kind of stuff. You could also take it another step further. Let's say that you created some kind of search scope around very specific things that you wanted, people to find, or maybe it's a product catalog or something in there, and you could give very specific suggestions in there.
Overall, it's giving dissonant feedback, and potentially in that case, it's giving more specific feedback to the actual context that the user is working in.
One of the options that you can do is you can actually modify that search results piece that on the no results, and actually make some modifications, do your own HTML to give the users better feedback, which can help them self-correct, therefore, you're taking down their time in which they're demanding support or not being successful on a task.
