    blackberry stock advice

    There are still an awful lot of outstanding short positions on RIM so its hard to really gauge how much of the pop is coming from a squeeze and how much might be institutional buyers coming back in. Yeah, it looks like a classic case of buy on rumour, sell on news but RIM was somewhat...

    Wow, RIM stock is on fire. Its totally gone parabolic. The question is how much more can it go before some sort of correction.

    Where to Sell car?

    For a second I thought you were talking about this one but I guess not http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/showthread.php?167280-FS-2004-Toyota-Echo-CE-with-A-C-Hatchback-144K-KM-3500 In any case, you'll probably get more selling privately than you would to a dealer. If you don't want the...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    When I watch people try to skip for the first time, they are usually overjumping the rope which means that they can't end up skipping for very long at all. Once you get the timing, coordination of it, you end up jumping very little as the rope passes and can therefore skip for a real long time...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    There are some great words of wisdom in that link. Especially on the importance of deloading and not overusing training to failure. Those are two surefire ways to plateau and get stuck in a rut which Ive made the mistake doing for many years. It does feel counter-intuitive at times since its...

    Live: 2014 Corvette Revealed!

    Its a worthy, great looking redesign. Never really been thrilled by Corvettes in general but this one looks great. I wonder what the price tag will be? There are a lot of fast machines these days for reasonable money so lots of competition out there..

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    Django Unchained was probably the best movie out of the recent batch of new flicks out there I've seen. Its nearly 3 hours but is good fun all the way through.Did not really like Skyfall - plot is cliched and kind of pointless. Didn't like that Killing them softly flick with Brad Pitt either...

    2013 - Maybe a new bike

    Hey Kool I really really llike the motor in the VRSC's, so much fun. I somewhat prefer some of the design elements/details on the VROD Muscle over the Night Rod os Id personally get a Muscle between the two but the Night Rod is a bit more comfortable and I dig the blacked out look. Moving on...

    2013 - Maybe a new bike

    You can get rear controls put on a Vrod which changes the rider positioning quite a bit. RE: FZ8. At the show Brampton Powersports had a few 2012 Anniversary editions for $7999. Thats a pretty great deal and a great looking motorcycle.

    Fish oil supplements...... yay or nay?

    The Omega 3-6-9 / Udo's Oil supplements are a waste of money. Here's why. The sales pitch that accompanies these blends usually talk about how its important to manage the ratio of omega 6 to 3 consumed. They state the ideal ratio is 2:1 so they sell you a capsule where these are pretty much...

    Fish oil supplements...... yay or nay?

    Omega-3 fats from Fish is a yay all the way. Don't do it because your trainer says so as trainers are usually not as informed as they sometimes appear to be. Do your research and you'll find out how beneficial getting omega-3's in your diet is. Common sense should tell you that eating the...

    Not trying to create an argument or anything but I as I said before, I was talking about the effectiveness of learning traditional martial arts for the sake of self-defense not being a professional fighter. Furthermore, Machida's origin is Karate however, he's training everything just like all...

    Mount Everest, in two billion pixels

    Amazing. You really get a sense of perspective when you see how tiny that base camp is.

    They are still going to charge service fees, but they are going to be optional for those that want their services, mostly enterprise. I guess its competition that is driving this change. Perhaps this puts more money in the pockets of their carriers which will perhaps push carriers to sell the...

    blackberry stock advice

    So the quarterly numbers are out and I don't really see much drama in them. Cash is up to 2.9bln, subscribers is flat/slight decline at 79mil, small loss on the quarter. Technically they beat analyst expectations. Not sure how the market will react but I don't think its going to be all that...

    Thats sort of the problem with many traditional martial arts that are learnt for the sake of self-defense... You can't even really spar let alone practice 100%.. And when you are training self-defense type sequences you can basically only do drills. And with the drills, the attacker attacks in...

    French baby almost eaten

    In Australia, a bird swept down and stole a steak off my BBQ when I stepped away from it momentarily. I saw it pick it up and fly away only to drop it mid-air. It wasn't even close to the size of an eagle. So I suppose its possible an eagle could try to do this but I think its fake based on...

    blackberry stock advice

    I use Questrade for trading as their fees are lower than the banks. They arent perfect but they are pretty good. Regarding RIM, its an incredibly speculative and volatile stock and the best seat in the house is probably on the side lines. The risk/reward proposition was a lot better when RIM...
