Asthma TV News Spot
2009-07-01 05:59:00 The video above is a local TV news spot that I did on Monday, May 18th, 2009 for the 5 o'clock newscast. This is a great opportunity I was given by the hospital. I think this figures out to be once every other month for me. Today's topic was asthma. It's been kind of frustrating for me, because on three other occasions, I was scheduled to be on, but for whatever reason, the segment was cancelled. So, that's why I really didn't mention things beforehand.Last weekend, as I have done on three other occasions, I went through my slides that I was going to present. I rehearsed the pace at I was going to speak (I tend to talk fast when I get nervous) and rehearsed the inflections (I did not want to sound monotone), and of course, I rehearsed the content of the slides.I thought that my almost 100 shows on live internet radio would prepare me for live TV. I was wrong. There were three cameras there and I got flustered as to which one I was supposed to talk in to - or was I supposed to t...

Schwarzer: We Deserve Europa Spot
2009-05-20 18:55:00 I’ve read comments from various pundits and fans alike, proclaiming that Fulham have been “lucky” this season and perhaps will utterly fail should they win a spot in next season’s Europa League. Don’t tell that to our big Australian keeper. Mark Schwarzer feels Fulham deserves a Europa League spot and it has nothing to do with “luck”. “We’re in this position on merit. It’s not there through luck after 37 games. It’s been the tremendous performances throughout the season that have got us in the position we’re in now.” Schwarzer spent 11 seasons with Middlesbrough before making the switch to Craven Cottage last summer. The move has paid off as Mark is having one of his best career seasons. “The key for us has been the consistency. We’ve been very fortunate with players not being injured and if there have been injuries they’ve just been minor little knocks along the way. That’s reall...

However most of them managed to close near opening.... and today, alot of them appeared in my screening. This sector is surely worth a second look for a couple of reasons:1. The 20-day MA holds.2. There are heavy volume in today's trading accompanied with reversal patterns.It must however has follow through buying... otherwise, could be another trap.Infact many of the component stocks showed sign of resuming the uptrend. If this is so, the last low should hold as we progress to test the previous high. Next week is May already... and tomorrow is the last trading day. I have got only 2 options: either i go long and hope the bear give me 1 more week to enjoy profit to the upside... or i wait patiently and short at the first pull back or bearish sign in May.

The Obama economy is failing, and Mrs Pelosi and her ‘rats own it   Yet, having seen Congress waste a trillion dollars on one phony stimulus bill, the public seems ill inclined to support yet another.   Mrs. Pelosi needs to get the economy turned around yet she does not have the votes for another stimulus.
