"Recent results as well as our own due diligence confirm that surgical robotics is evolving into a platform technology with several new procedure categories gaining traction. As the company sees increased uptake in these procedures, we see the revenue trajectory as sustainable in the +18% 20% range annually whereas consensus estimates call for a slowing in outer years." The firm also said that the combination of solid revenue growth and the potential for the company to more aggressively deploy capital should share price outperformance.

Analysts have an overall Buy rating with an average price target of $609.14 (6.1% upside potential) for ISRG.

There are a few positive factors for ISRG:

Stronger revenue growth (3 year average) of 10.6 (vs. the industry average of 2.8)Higher operating margin of 40.3% and net margin of 30.1 (vs. the averages of 15.9% and 11.6%)Stronger ROE of 21.1 (vs. the average of 13.4)ISRG has zero total debt and has a total cash of $1.32BISRG generates an operating cash flow of $814.20M with a levered free cash flow of $567.81MTechnically, the MACD (12, 26, 9) indicator is showing a bearish trend, but the MACD difference converged in the last trading day.

14 FA Cup Mango Incyte Ball

My arms are pretty weedy. I struggle to lift shopping bags; have to stop intermittently to flex my fingers before struggling on. I get other people to twist open stiff jar lids for me. I can do four to five pull ups, just.

So why is my hand gripped, vice like arm poised at a sharp 90 degree angle by World Champion arm wrestler Neil Pickup, and do I have a hope in hell?

Well yes, says Pickup, but not against him. "Arm wrestling is a bit like physical chess. Does technique come into it? Absolutely. In a match between novices, the person with the technique is probably at a 70:30 advantage. Because what you can do with that is literally neutralise your opponent's strength."

He's right. With the three tips he gave me, I have gone on to win every arm wrestle I've had. I tried it at the pub, against co workers, and with my housemates. My mum crumbled in seconds. And now, dear reader, I will reveal the secrets to you and scupper that advantage.

First, set your body: keep your upper arm close to your chest and lean in, feeling the pressure on your bicep. On the count of three, don't push but pull up towards your nose, thus disengaging your opponent's wrist. Now you have them, dead fish like, roll over and down, with all the force you can muster. "Like a tyre lever," explains Pickup.

But is this fitness? As with any sport, to be good you have to put the hours in. Pickup climbs a four inch thick shipping rope wearing a weighted belt and walks himself up and down a vertical I beam (the steel girders normally used for holding up buildings), clinging on with crimped fingers.

All of which make for gargantuan forearms, drainpipe thick wrists and trouble free trips back from Tesco.

The cyclist: Three and out

I have bought a new bicycle, which is of no interest to anyone bar me, but notably, perhaps, it brings the total number of bikes I own to three. And, according to The Rules, an indulgently snobbish guide to cycling, this is the minimum number a rider should have blocking his or her hall (where the carpet may already have been ruined by the greasy fitflop rain drips of two bikes).

The correct number of bikes to own, above that minimum, the book adds, is "n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned." The equation may be re written according to circumstances, The Rules goes on, as "s 1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner".

I will now cap my ownership, not because my girlfriend would dump me otherwise (she might) but because she would find it difficult to enter her own flat, where I'm her tenant. I may have also risked losing my deposit on account of that blackened carpet if she'd been mercenary enough to take one.

Yet three is a modest number for many cycling types I know. For others, the real risk of a domestic incident keeps the number down. Charlie warns: "My brother in law once owned a beautiful steel bike (his pride and joy) until his first wife took a hacksaw to it after an argument, she carefully cut it into 10cms long sections and left it in a pile in the front room."Takin' it easy: 'Hide and clean'

A recent conversation with my friend Naomi brought back fond memories of working together in a Dublin restaurant a number of years ago. We Fitflop Electra Strata recalled our joint motto formulated on the job; one that is particularly pertinent during the set up and break down portions of restaurant life: "Hide the things you can't clean; clean the things you can't hide". A catchphrase I feel (but I'm Fitflop Frou Danmark not going to get too worked up about it) that should be held dear by catering staff and anyone else in search of the easy life.

10M of fake designer clothing

Toronto police say they have recovered $10 million worth of counterfeit merchandise in a series of raids on Toronto area retailers.

The seized property included items with high end brand name labels Fitflop Floretta Danmark fitflop such as Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Armani, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Chanel, Hugo Fitflop Fiorella Danmark Boss and Nike.

Lorne Lipkus, of the Canadian Alliance Against Software Theft, told CTV's Canada AM on Tuesday that took part in the raid, helping police discern between counterfeit goods and genuine articles.

"This was different because we'd never seen a manufacturing and assembling factory in the basement of a store that was selling bridal gowns," he said. The basement of that particular shop, Lipkus said, was filled with counterfeit shoes such as Nike Shox, that were being assembled and repackaged and were almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
