Danger n' Opportunity
Crisis! Crisis! Crisis!
A Crisis is the point of time when it is to be decided whether any affair or course of action must go on, or be modified or terminate; the decisive moment; the turning point. And the current global financial crisis is definitely a turning point, in fact it has spun the world around and it will go down in history… just like past, presents and future crisis’s. So, if crisis calls out 2 words, danger and opportunity, we thought it will be interesting to see who emphasizes what, when discussing a crisis. Who sees this more as an opportunity and who sees it as a horrific danger & how they see the balance between the two: danger and opportunity.
John F Kennedy: " When written in Chinese, the word "crisis" is composed of two characters. One represents danger and the other represents opportunity.”
Bill Gates: "I'm quite worried about the fiscal imbalances that we've got and what that might mean in terms of financial crisis ahead”
Donald Trump says:" it's both a very tough time and a great opportunity. There are great opportunities right now for people when you say average family. It's an unbelievable time to buy a house and especially if a bank happens to own it because they've put the money in so it's not a question of getting financing. The money is already there. Go out and make a deal.”
Stuart Wilde: “In a time of crisis we all have the potential to morph up to a new level and do things we never thought possible.”
Al Gore: “We sometimes emphasize the danger in a crisis without focusing on the opportunities that are there. We should feel a great sense of urgency because it is the most dangerous crisis we have ever faced, by far. But it also provides us with opportunities to do a lot of things we ought to be doing for other reasons anyway. And to solve this crisis we can develop a shared sense of moral purpose. (talking about the environmental crisis)”
What do u associate with the word “Crisis”? Tell us here…..

There's a new kid in the Zoo
From the wonderful mind of Art Cashin: forget the Bears, no more Bull, the latest addition in the financial zoo-- its all about the Platypus. | |
What is a Platypus? Glad you asked: "The Platypus is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to eastern Australia. Together with the four other species, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. The unique features of the Platypus make it an important subject in the study of evolutionary biology and a recognisable and iconic symbol of Australia" | |
Here is the complete CNBC article with Mr. Cashin's analysis. And here is Chadwick Matlin analysis from Slate, commenting on this as well. What's next, adding Bambi to the mix ? The big question still remind, did the market bottom already and, the more important question: is it time to jump back into the market? | |

don’t need to get it over the net, just over the moneyline!
If you’re not following either “sport” then you should, both are f.a.n.t.a.s.t.i.c
(regarding umoo we maybe a bit biased)
We want to spotlight our Mini tournaments in relation to beach volley.
Why? How?
Well, it’s just 2 players per team in beach volleyball, and with our mini tournament, it’s just 2 to 10 players max, so both are pretty intimate games. You can play volley and a mini indoors or outdoors, barefoot too if you like ☺ but imagine if you did have internet access near a beach, you could play a mini on the sand, but 4sure it’s a little less energetic than playing volley in the sand.
But then again by participating in a mini tournament, you’ve got a better chance to win and you can double, triple and even make 5 times your money!!
Enough said, right?
