why would you think someone is a racist? because they don't want you sexually? that could be just their preference. as I prefer thin to athletic women. does that mean I am a chubbyphobic? no it is just my preference. my friend loves the bigger girls and cant see why I like the thinner ones. its quite often just a preference. Im so tired of hearing the race card! If they don't want to be with you, why would you want to be with them?

Are there racists in the lifestyle? Unfortunately yes. More than the average population? I don't think so. Nothing turns us off more than when someone makes racist comments often it can be the turning point between choosing to play with a couple our not. What bothers me most is when racist people assume since you are the same race as they are that you must agree with them. We choose to not associate with racists both in and out of the lifestyle.

Hi all....just wanted to add a few comments and pose a question 1....this lifestyle is one of choice.....it is one based on personal and individual preferences. Sure there will be unwarranted responses and many unwelcomed replies, but as an adult we should recognize and respect those indifference then move on..
2.....If race is such an issue then how do 5 blind couples have an orgy full of passion and intimacy if 3 of the participants are black , 2 are amputees, 3 are transvestite with the remaining.2 over weight
Remember.....these 10 people are blind....what are their reactions towards each other if they can only rely that which is not seen nor viewed....only a sense of what is being presented to them

Pls understand the definition of racism/racist and prejudice. Prejuice is prejudging someone on there appears, or forming a false fact If I only prefer petite over full figure women, I could be showing signs of prejudice on the basic of size. When you use words to describe people or a race of such as jews, muslin, people of color, etc...because of economy reasons, now you're borderline racist. For example, old white men that have daughters in the porn business are tolerate of white men fucking their baby then a black man. Also, White men are more likely to visit porn site, become members and feel comfortable watching other men fuck and suck white women. So, the porn industry has fewer black men and women in the business. Porn industry has made the choice, you white people need to understand that you as consumers made them change. It's called supply on demand.

I agree, personal preference in who you have sex with is not racist, it's simply a preference. Would you call someone racist if they wanted ONLY blacks, (a common occurrence) I think not. Would you call it racist if I said I don't have sex with redheads? Not unless you are a redhead even then you'd say "OK". (I love redheads by the way) I'll be honest, I'm fat, because of that many won't even talk to me. However others love my size. I don't rant and rave about how I'm being discriminated against. My wife is short (4'11) some don't like that. Her reaction (and mine) their loss. She as a rule she doesn't play with AA men, that is her right just as it's your right not to play with fat or short people. As for someone saying "you're a nigger and I don't play with niggers", that is completely out of line. No excuse for rudness. If someone contacts us who we do not wish to play with, for whatever reason, our response is "Sorry but you're not our type". Usually we get a "thank you for responding" and that's it. We did get one that called us racist but if you read our profile it's only black MEN that we don't play with.

I know that it is a little late in this post but need to express myself.
It is not stated in our profile but my wife will not play with black males and here is the reason why; and racism has nothing to do with it.
12 years ago my wife was single and living alone. 5 black male youths broke into her house, beat her half to death, tried to rape her, stabbed her 9 times and tried to cut her throat.
Racism has nothing to do with her not wanting to play with blacks, it is fear; even after all this time. She still jumps when I try to hug her from behind if she is not expecting it and we've been married 10 years.
Who you do and do not want to play with is a preference, whether it is people of different races or sexual orientation. There are people who state on their profiles, "Absolutely no Bi or Bi-curious males". I can't understand why people would want to exclude half of the population as swing partners but that is their preference and who am I to tell them different.
All I have to say. Hope I did not offend anyone.

To me the life style is about being comfortable with what you do.Just because you may not want to play with another race doesn`t make you a raciest.As long as you treat all persons with respect your just enforcing your own boundrys.Wheather it be who you play with or what you will or won`t do.

I think it's funny that ebony10inch criticized bullfrog12 for his bad spelling but misspelled "fantasy" in his post.
As for bullfrog12 after reading your profile, it seems as if you're a married man who is creeping behind his wife's back on here. Which is looked down upon on this site and in general and adds to the negative attention that single guys get on here.
It also looks like your sexual orientation is in question because in your profile you put that, "I will love to meet a woman who is willing to or already love anal sex and the husband will love to suck my cock."
As for the racism issue, I personally haven't encountered racism on here. People have certain preferences as far as race, size, hight, etc. So I don't take the fact that a single woman or couple that doesn't respond to me as them being racist, even though sometimes I might think it at the back of my mind.
Certain people have certain biases in their regular lives that they bring into the lifestyle. I don't think this way. We're all human and we all can learn something from one another.

As of Thursday, August 18, 2011
© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
Norcross Gwinnett police say a woman was struck and killed by a train before dawn Thursday near Norcross, while a male she was with jumped out of the way.
Gwinnett police spokesman Cpl. Edwin Ritter said officers responded at 5:45 a.m. to tracks near Jones Mill Road and Button Gwinnett Drive, a straight stretch of railway running parallel to Buford Highway. The female pedestrian was dead at the scene, and the male was uninjured, Ritter said.
Neither person was identified Thursday morning.
"Everything indicates that it was an accident," said Ritter. "The male got out of the way; the female could not."
Gwinnett police Sgt. Brian Reddy said the couple apparently had been trying to cross the tracks to a fast food restaurant. Ritter said police found two trains at the scene.
"It's possible they thought all that noise was from the other train," he said.
Ritter said the train that struck the woman was operated by Norfolk Southern. Police had cleared the scene and all roads were reopened before 11 a.m., he said.
A spokesperson with the Norfolk Southern Corp. was not immediately available for comment.

APHA Policy Process and the Role of Health Informatics & Information Technology (HIIT)
Jiunn-Jye Sheu MSPH, PhD, CHES
Chair, HIIT Policy Committee
Vice-Chair, HIIT
APHA represents more than 50 disciplines in public health and related fields, and has many motivated members and staff who work closely with members of Congress, agencies at all levels and other public health organizations to ensure that public health is a priority in the legislative and policy-making process. APHA is also frequently consulted by governmental agencies, news media, corporations, and non-profit organizations for the scientific opinions for certain public health problems/issues. APHA constantly runs a policy system to have its policies and position statements on various public health issues prepared for the publication in The Nation's Health newspaper.
HIIT is the information technology unit of APHA and plays a significant role in the nation's health information technology (IT) development. APHA has identified the policy gaps for 2009. The nation's public health and IT is listed on the priority list among related fields. HIIT members are encouraged to participate in the policy process as APHA policies do have long-range impact on the public health of the country or even the world.
The policy development process is open to full participation of the members to ensure careful review by appropriate APHA boards, committees and other membership entities. The policy process has two major components:
(1) Proposing new policies/position statements and archiving the existing policies; and
(2) the Policy Committee of HIIT is responsible to call for, review, and make recommendations to the proposed new and archiving policies/position statements in the area of health information technology from its members. APHA accepts new policies all year long and encourages members to submit their proposed policies and/or position statements to their prospective Section/SPIG/Forum/Caucus. The due date for new proposed policies/position statements is usually in early February, while May is for the archiving policies/position statements.
Update-New policy & position statements received in 2009
8 in Health Disparities/International Health,
6 in Environmental Health,
6 in Access to Care; and
6 in Public Health Science and Infrastructure
Update-Major categories for policy archiving received in 2009
9 policies in Immigrant Health,
26 in Unintentional Injury; and
36 in International/Global Health. The HIIT Policy Committee reviewed: The Need for Universal EHR & Public Health Information Systems Based on Open Source Code. Members are encouraged to propose new policies/position statements as early as possible.
The APHA Joint Policy Committee (JPC) will hold public hearings for the proposed new and archiving policies and position statements during the 137th Annual Meeting & Exposition in Philadelphia from Nov. 7-11, 2009:
· Sessions 257.0; 258.0; 259.0; and 260.0 will be held on Nov. 8 from 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. The meeting room will be indicated on the annual conference program. All members are welcome to attend these sessions. Detailed policies/position statements can be found on APHA's Web site.
· Latebreaking proposed new policies will be accepted until Nov. 7 at 6 p.m. (EST) to firstname.lastname@example.com in electronic format. Members who did not catch the regular deadline are welcome to submit. If you have any question and/or want to join the HIIT Policy Committee and the Health Informatics Information Technology Special Primary Interest Group of APHA, please feel free to contact Dr. Jiunn-Jye Sheu, chair of the Policy Committee, at firstname.lastname@example.com or (352)391-0583, ext 1310.

With its bright lights and boozy bars, Las Vegas has long been used as a stage for birthday celebrations. Mountain Bike magazine tapped into that tradition to host a trio of events at the annual Interbike convention in Sin City this week to commemorate its 25th Anniversary.
PHOTO: HB, Hans Rey, Ryan Leech, Mike Cushionbury and Ned Overend hammer in Bootleg Canyon.
The magazine kicked off the celebration with a ride at Bootleg Canyon on Tuesday with some of the sport's legendary figures, including Ned Overend, Joe Breeze, Hans Rey, Brian Lopes, Kirt Vories, Wade Simmons, Ryan Leech and others. Retailers attending the convention were also invited on the ride and spent several laps rubbing wheels with the greats on Bootlegs twisty, rolling cross-country trails.
During the trade show, Mountain Bike is displaying a gallery of 15 indelible images that have run in the magazine over the past 25 years. The photographs include shots of John Tomac, Roland Green, and Willow Koerber, as well as some of mountain biking's greatest trails and destinations. "Nothing captures the power, beauty, pain, and joy of a ride like a great photograph," said Lou Mazzante, Mountain Bike's editor. "Our staff spent weeks pouring over 25 years of Mountain Bike issues to select our all-time favorite photographs." The photos have been professionally framed and will be auctioned off online. To view the images or to place a bid, click here [31]. The auction runs until November 1 and all proceeds go directly IMBA.
On Thursday, the magazine is also hosting a panel discussion with Ned Overend, Hans Rey, Marla Streb and mountain bike pioneer Gary Fisher. The wide-ranging conversation will cover the past and future of the sport, and will allow the riders to share their favorite memories with the crowd. The discussion will be held at the Mountain Bike photo gallery at 2 p.m., Thursday, at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Fisher is also the subject of a feature story in the November issue of Mountain Bike. The commemorative 25th anniversary issue also profiles 10 revolutionary new trails, the next generation of mountain bikers, 25 perfect products, an illustrated history of the mountain bike, and much more. It will be available on newsstands October 5.
"For 25 years, Mountain Bike has been the voice of mountain biking. We've taken our readers to great destinations, introduced them to influential riders, given them a seat at legendary races and shown them great products that make their rides better," said Mazzante. "To commemorate this milestone anniversary, we wanted to showcase that rich history, but continue to keep looking forward. New trails are being built almost everywhere. It seems like more kids than ever are riding and racing. And bikes and gear continue to improve. The next 25 years look like they'll be even better than the past 25."

You should notice,
This gag of lull,
When you utter sermons,
How others, fill your means,
Patronizing your sprite critic.
Air is fumes, and reek,
Elapsed intimacy,
Scarlet waving it,
In my direction,
Hands on your wheel,
Take me out tonight,
Drive me out of this tight.
You do, annoyed notice,
My jitter-manic,
My entertaining relish,
Thrills you bitter,this day
As repeating eyes rotate.
But silence is your full-mouthed gale,
Closed shut soupier,
But in brown eyes,
Expectation of my waking up,
To a better you.
Take me out tonight,
Drive me out of this tight,
Even with out you.

"The Summit was a successful gathering of school leaders who all care about the same thing – creating and maintaining healthy schools for healthy children. I left the event inspired
by the work, passion and dedication of my peers and am excited to be a part
of the healthy indoor environments in schools movement."
– Tracy Washington Enger, U.S. EPA
SHIELDS participants hold the Declaration of Commitment poster and pledge to lead the green and healthy schools movement
On July 12, 2012, over 60 school health leaders gathered in Washington, D.C., for the inaugural School Health and Indoor Environments Leadership Development Summit (SHIELDS) to discuss the future of the green and healthy schools movement. Held at the National Education Association Headquarters and hosted by EPA's Indoor Environments Division, this one-day event brought together a variety of stakeholders including school, government, non-profit and industry leaders.
SHIELDS was designed to allow participants to understand and connect with one another's assets and missions. Each attendee signed a declaration of commitment to the SHIELDS vision of green and healthy indoor environments in schools that promote healthy children and improve student and staff performance. Throughout the day, participants shared their knowledge of best practices, provided access to their network of partners and stakeholders and collaborated in action learning activities that strengthened the community and advanced the vision.
The Creation of Pacing Events
The SHIELDS collective vision
The school leaders divided into teams to plan and design action learning events called "Pacing Events" which are intended to generate actionable commitments. This activity led to the formation of nine events, including trainings, conferences, webinars and regional engagements. Teams created posters advertising their events and displayed them in a "marketplace," where they networked with their peers by exchanging requests and offers to help with each event, including offers of event space, volunteering to be a speaker, and providing sponsorship.
Participants left the Summit with the connections and opportunities needed to advance clean, safe and healthy indoor environments in schools. Stay tuned to hear more about these nine exciting pacing events – one of them may be near you – and to find out how you can join these school health leaders in implementing the vision of green and healthy indoor school learning environments.

Meeting Needs…Changing Lives
110 Veterans Blvd; Suite 535
Metairie, LA 70005
It's all about relationships.
Since 1969, it has been the mission of the the men and women of The Personnel Consulting
Group to offer the most professional and caring direct hire and temporary personnel
placement services available. It is not a mission we take lightly. What we do affects
the lives of so many people. It is sobering and humbling that we have the ability
to build bridges in peoples lives that bring companies, families and successes together.
The bottom line of what we do is not a "transaction." It is a relationship. Our results are measured by the long term success of individuals in the position for which they have been recruited – and that means success for the companies in which they work as well. We know we are doing our job when our clients continue to come back to us for their recruiting needs and professionals thank us for locating them for the right position.
You've Invested…They've Gained
"You've Invested, They've Gained!!"
It simply means that the privilege you give us to serve you makes it possible for
us to support -
We have built a family of professionals to work with the candidates and clients who
have entrusted us with their futures and their success. In an industry with an
average tenure of less than 2 years, almost half of our staff have been with the
company for over 20 years, with over 60% having 10 years of service. Such amazing
longevity has enabled us to strengthen and enhance our business and personal relationships
with our clients and candidates as well as within our own office.
The mission statement is very brief but to the point: "Meeting Needs, Changing Lives." It's PCG's history, and by the grace of God, it will be PCG's future.

Section: Banking.
Apply 1st Account (opens overlay window)
We designed our current account with one thing in mind. You. And with a range of features designed to help you get the most out of your money, you'll spend less time banking - and more time living. What's more, you don't have to take our word for it - as the UK's most recommended bank, you know we come with a great reputation.*
Apply 1st Account (opens overlay window)
* From July to December 2013, 53% of first direct current account customers had actually recommended their bank in the last year. The closest brand over the same time period had 44% of current account customers recommend their bank. Source: Charterhouse Research Customer Contact Survey, covering 8 major banks in England & Wales, based on 19,415 contacts.
** Open a 1st Account, then transfer your banking and salary/income of at least £1,000 per month to your 1st Account using the Current Account Switch Service within three months of your account opening and we'll add £100 to your account. This offer is only available for people who haven't previously held any account with first direct and is limited to one payment per customer or joint relationship. Incentives are paid within 28 days of criteria being met. This offer may be withdrawn at any time without notice.
Banking with first direct is different. To start with, you can call and speak to a real person 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. If you prefer, you can access our Internet Banking service wherever you're online, or use any of our Mobile Banking facilities, including our Banking on the go App for Apple and Android devices.
But the truth is, it's difficult to imagine what makes banking with first direct so special unless you've actually had the experience. That's why we introduced our Service Guarantee: we're so certain that our service is better than anyone else's, if you're not happy banking with first direct after six months, you can move banks and we'll give you £100 for your trouble.
***Here's how it works. We'll pay £100 per customer or joint relationship if you close your 1st Account within 12 months of opening it, as long as a monthly salary or income of £1000 or more has been paid into that account for at least six months and you haven't previously had an account with first direct. You must contact us to claim the Service Guarantee prior to closing your account. You'll also need to have transferred your banking to that account using the Current Account Switch Service. We'll pay the £100 into your 1st Account prior to its closure. All accounts with first direct have to be closed and your 1st Account transferred to another bank/building society. Incentives are paid within 28 days of criteria being met.
It's our job to make your life simpler, and that starts when you switch to first direct. We can transfer your banking using the Current Account Switch Service. This service covers the transfer of your Direct Debits and standing orders, credit/debit balances (subject to overdraft limit agreement), regular bill payment details and the closure of the account you are transferring from on the date you choose. You will also benefit from a 13 month redirection of incoming credits and debits from your old bank to your first direct account. If anything goes wrong with the switch, as soon as we are told, we will refund any interest (paid or lost) and charges incurred on either your old or new current account as a result of this failure.
Please note: As part of the Current Account Switch Service your old current account will close on the day that you choose to switch.
If there is failure in the switching process we will refund any charges or interest you've paid to us, and if you are a Northern Ireland customer your old bank should refund any charges or interest you've paid to them.
If you are a Northern Ireland customer and you use our switching service we can offer you an overdraft free of overdraft interest and charges for three months from the date that you open your account with us, subject to our usual credit assessment criteria.
Find out more about switching your banking
We give you an automatic £500 formal overdraft when you open your account and the first £250 is free of overdraft interest. We will charge you overdraft interest on overdrafts above £250 and we may apply an overdraft setup fee if you request an informal overdraft more than once every six months.
See interest rates and charges for details of our overdraft fees. If your account is linked to an offset Mortgage interest on your overdraft balance will be charged at your mortgage rate.
Banking with first direct usually costs £10 a month, but we'll waive the fee if you pay in at least £1,000 to your 1st Account each month or maintain an average monthly 1st Account balance of £1,000 or hold a selected first direct additional product. For new customers we waive the fee for your first six months. Take a look at our interest rates and charges section for details of the additional products.

|Show or hide Sweep facility makes your money work harder
Our sweep facility makes it easier for you to get into the savings habit. Once a month (whichever date you prefer) we can automatically sweep up any money you haven't spent into one of the eligible first direct savings accounts***. Just let us know, and we'll do the rest.
***Eligible savings accounts are: Savings Account, Everyday Savings Account (removed from sale 20 March 2009) and Everyday e-Saver.
|Show or hide Real people, not machines
You'll always speak to a real person here in the UK when you call us. No automated routing systems, no punching in numbers on your keypad, no waiting at the tone to say 'yes' or 'no'. Just a friendly voice every time you call.
|Show or hide Beautifully designed Internet Banking
You can view your account online from the comfort of your chair in seconds, with much greater access and flexibility in managing your money. You can also choose to view your account statements online and save paper.
|Show or hide Text alerts
To make sure you're always in touch with your finances, we can send you text alerts at no extra charge when your salary's in or when your balance reaches a specific level. Just let us know what you'd like to know and when.
|Show or hide We never close
It's your money, so you should be able to access it whenever you like. So we're here for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year - public holidays included. In fact, ever since we started, in 1989, we've never closed. So when we say you can give us a call anytime, we really mean it.
We've put together a selection of services and benefits to go with your 1st Account so you're prepared wherever you are - at home, abroad, or on the road.

Voice over: This is Adam. He's been thinking of switching his current account to first direct... but he's got just one or two reservations.
Customer 1: A lot of my friend's bank with first direct and they told me it's a great bank to bank with so thought why not give it a go.
Customer 2: I was scared if direct debits or things didn't change over properly or in time but it worked perfectly fine.
Colleague 1: We want to make sure that we get it right first time for the customer because that's the whole customer experience.
Customer 1: It was really nice, really easy, they took me through it really slowly, but made sure I understood what was going to happen. I picked my change over date and I was just banking with first direct.
Voice over: What Adam doesn't realise is the Current Account Switch Service makes moving everything over to first direct a doddle.
Customer 3: I just chose one day specifically that there was no wage going in or payment out and they hit that date bang on.
Customer 1: When you call up first direct the answer really quickly and it's a person who answers.
Customer 4: Everyone likes to speak to a cheery person on the phone, and definitely first direct customer service is the best I've ever come across.
Voice over: So if you're looking to switch to first direct, with the Current Account Switch Service youll find its quick, simple and hassle free.

Several million years ago, human ancestors began striding around on two legs, in what was a key moment in the evolution of modern humans. But the question of whether each species of prehuman left treetops behind and made their home in grasslands has not always been easy to discern from fossils, which can provide conflicting evidence.
Now, a team of scientists from Dartmouth College that has been studying a former hunter-gatherer population in Uganda has found clues among living humans that further muddies the picture, making it clear that even a modern human foot can be useful in impressive feats of climbing.

Why a Partnership School?
OPINION: Last week it was confirmed that my organisation the Manukau Urban Maori Authority had the opportunity to start and sponsor a Partnership School.
How did it end up like this?
OPINION: I couldn't believe what I was hearing when Mana candidate Kereama Pene said on Maori Television that he wanted Labour's Peeni Henare to beat the Maori Party candidate Rangi McLean for the Tamaki Makaurau seat.

I purchased a downloadable tutorial recently (from a legitimate site that sells software training tutorials) and had problems with a corrupted file. The files are in .zip format. After much head banging and emails back and forth with the site owner, we narrowed the problem down to my Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security 2011. I had to turn it off temporarily to download the file so I could get an uncorrupted zip file.
With TM Titanium running, the .zip file would seemingly download okay (i.e. the file size was correct), but when I tried to unzip it I would get an error message about a damaged archive.
I have downloaded zips from this tutorial site many times before and have NEVER had this problem with corrupted files in previous versions of Trend Micro. What's going on with Titanium? Is there some setting I can change so this won't happen again?
Thanks in advance,

this is a awesome peanut butter cake. i always get ask for the recipe.If the recipe calls for butter use butter or it will not set up right and don't forget all ovens are not the same so you might need to bake it longer. I have made several of these and never had a problem with any of them. This is a very moist cake. If you want more peanut butter flavor in the cake add a little more peanut butter but i think that with the peanut butter icing it is enough. bake in a cookie sheet only.
Tried this cake tonight and I checked and re-checked the measurements because the batter was water thin.? My cake has cooked for 40 mins and is still not cooked in the middle.

This cake is delicious! I'm not sure why it hasn't been rated before but its a keeper for me. Thanks for sharing it.
I made cupcakes instead of a cake and everyone LOVED them
I made this cake today and it was delicious! Very easy to make. I used 9" round pans & baked for 35-40 minutes (until toothpick came out clean). I added chocolate chips to one of the batters and yum yum. Both are fantastic and the cake is moist. The only trouble I had was the cake stuck to my pans even though I sprayed them with Pam. Next time I'll flour too and see if that works. Thank you for posting!
I followed this recipe as is, just added a little more peanut butter to the cake...the cake turned out great! I made my own cream cheese peanut butter frosting to frost it. I will be saving this recipe, thanks for sharing!
Very tasty and moist. I used 3/4 c peanut butter in cake portion and made cupcakes. Recipe made 26 regular size cupcakes with plenty of icing. I cooled the icing to room temp before I frosted them. Yummm!
Loved it. Really good.

Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - The Tampa Bay Lightning claimed center Nate Thompson off waivers from the New York Islanders on Thursday.
Thompson, 25, appeared in 39 games with the Islanders this season and totaled a goal and five assists.
"We are extremely excited to bring Nate into the organization," said Tampa Bay general manager Brian Lawton. "We really feel the team will benefit greatly from his tenacity, physicality and energy as well as his overall ability. We're looking forward to seeing him contribute."
Over three years in the NHL, which included the first season with Boston and the past two with the Islanders, he has three goals and seven assists in 86 games.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have swung a trade for the rights to non-import defensive lineman Hasan Hazime and the Edmonton Eskimos second-round pick, sending their second- and third-round draft picks to the Eskimos in exchange.
The Eskimos selected Hazime in the fifth-round of last year's draft. The 25-year-old played his college football with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in the United States.
The picks Edmonton received from Hamilton are the 10th and 24th overall in the upcoming draft.

10 picks for value, growth, income
Based on historic patterns of yield, these blue-chip stocks now offer excellent total return potential.
By Kelley Wright, Investment Quality Trends
A cash dividend is the most fundamental measure of return on investment, and it reveals several critical attributes about a company.
First, a dividend tells us the company has earnings. Second, a rising dividend trend suggests the company's earnings are increasing. Next, dividend increases reflect management's optimism about earnings. And last, a long-term track record of consistent dividend increases is a predictor for a rising stock price.
Putting this all together, we find that high-quality companies with long-term track records of dividends and dividend increases tend to fluctuate between two dividend yield areas -- one in which the price is low and the yield is high and the other in which the price is high and the yield is low.
Our contention is that the high-yield/low-price area represents good historic value. This means that over long periods this is the dividend yield area where a price decline has stopped.
This occurs ostensibly because knowledgeable buyers believe the return on investment from the current cash dividend, which determines dividend yield, and the capital appreciation potential is simply too attractive to pass up.
Does buying a stock at its historically repetitive area of undervalue guarantee the stock will not decline below that area? No, in the midst of a panic, rational thought goes out the window, as do stock prices.
What buying at a historically repetitive area of undervalue provides an investor is a position in a really good company that has historically provided an excellent long-term total return from that area; nothing more, nothing less.
Based on this strategy, The Timely Ten represents our top 10 recommendations, made up of historically undervalued stocks that show exemplary long-term dividend growth.
These stocks also have a price-to-earnings ratio of 15 or less, a payout ratio of 50% or less, debt of 50% or less and technical characteristics that suggest the potential for imminent capital appreciation.
The current Timely Ten are:
Eaton Corp. (ETN) -- yielding 3.5%
Chevron (CVX) -- yielding 3.7%
ExxonMobil (XOM) -- yielding 2.9%
Coca-Cola (KO) -- yielding 2.7%
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) -- yielding 3.9%
Union Pacific (UNP) -- yielding 2.2%
Air Products & Chemicals (APD) -- yielding 3.2%
United Technologies (UTX) -- yielding 2.6%
Procter & Gamble (PG) -- yielding 3.6%
Occidental Petroleum (OXY) -- yielding 2.7%

The Minnesota State Football Tournament is now underway at the Metrodome, but the championship playoff is bringing attention to a sport that has seen dwindling participation since 2010.
ESPN reports that Pop-Warner has seen a 10 percent decline in players in the last three years, and it appears fewer parents across the nation feel comfortable letting their kids participate in entry-level football programs due to concussion risks.
There's no question that for many small towns in Minnesota, the state football championship marks one of the most celebrated weeks -- but even with the deep sense of pride, safety concerns linger.
On Thursday, Underwood faced Ely -- and proud parents from both winning teams filled the stands. Those that spoke with Fox 9 News all seemed well aware that playing the game brings with it a potential risk of concussion and other injuries.
"It is something that crosses your mind with all the different injuries and things that you read in the papers," Mary Jo Biegler admitted.
Recent announcements from former NFL players -- including Tony Dorsett -- regarding chronic brain disease linked to concussions are keeping the issue in the forefront for football fans and players alike. Even Brett Favre admitted he sometimes suffers memory loss.
At the high school level, coaches and parents are aware of the issue. In fact, the Minnesota State High School League now has a short, online course on concussions that seeks to educate both parents and players.
"The players have been tested -- kind of a baseline test," Roxanne Thompson said. "They're aware of the signs and we have athletic trainer on the sidelines. That helps."
Knowing the risks -- as well as the warning signs is plenty of preparation for the parents who still let their kids play. One father told Fox 9 News that there will always be risks, but that the life lessons his son learns in team football far outweighs them.

Welcome back. We hope that you are ready for the start of a new school year! Clarion University has contracted with CampusLabs to provide a web-based organizational management software platform that we are calling CU CONNECT. Recognized Student Organizations (RSO) will no longer turn in paper registration forms to the Gemmell Information Desk. Instead, RSO leaders will create profiles for their organizations in CU CONNECT and the officer and roster information will be reported electronically. However, reporting officer and roster information is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the capabilities of CU CONNECT!
• Customize an organization profile with content and graphics.
• Post articles to a campus news ticker and allow commenting on group discussion "walls."
• Manage club rosters and fill positions with newly-recruited members.
• Send out e-mail or text messages (SMS) to specific officers, event attendees, or an entire organization membership list.
• Promote events through a virtual flyer board that simultaneously includes all posted events on a central calendar.
• Hold secure online elections for open officer positions.
• Upload lists of students, send out invitations, monitor RSVP status, and track attendance using card-swipe or barcode readers.
• Approve service hours completed by organization members.
• Store electronic documents, photos, and other files and control who can access them.

For the 15th consecutive year, Rose-Hulman has been named the #1 Undergraduate Engineering School in the nation by U.S. News and World Report (among engneering schools not offering a Ph.D.). A scholarly paper on innovation in the teaching of engineering, presented in the July 2010 issue of the Journal of Engineering Education, asked department heads from across the country to cite schools known for innovation in the classroom. Rose-Hulman was cited more times than any other school by a wide margin, and in fact, was cited nearly twice as many times as MIT.

Avengers and X-Men Trade Places On Classic Covers for Avengers #24 Variants
- Written by Jeremy Shane on Thursday, November 07 2013 and posted in News with Benefits
Source: Bleeding Cool
I can't say I understand the numbering system in comics anymore, but I always enjoy the homage to classic covers. For the variants of #24.NOW of Avengers, the X-Men and Avengers are trading places with each other on classic covers:
If, for some reason, you are still one of those fans that actually tries to buy all the variant covers of a comic, having not learned your lesson in the 90's, the covers are being distributed in batches of five for retailers that order enough copies of the comic. So you may have to do a bit of work if you want to get copies of all the covers in your collection.

Yeah, well, Ohio is an inferior academic institution.
Yeah, well, Ohio is an inferior academic institution.
Gotta love the Ohio hitler ad...
If they can come out of the half with a few early threes from Burke and THJ, I don't think it's out of the question to see us build enough momentum to make this a game. Still, with the way Sullinger is playing, it'll be tough to see us winning this.
15-4 rally to start the half. We'll get within 4 with 7 min to go, but we'll be down 7 with 4 min to go. Novak will hit a huge 3 to be down 4. I can't say how the final 3:30 plays out, other than GO BLUE!
Does he only predict football?
Is capable of falling apart with a couple calls against him. He can be a head case.
i hope Mitch M can bring some toughness to this team next season ... ala Zeller
I mean come on 13 points aint shit. We got Sullinger his 2nd foul, we only shot 25% and hit what 2-12 from 3 point land? All that went wrong and it is only 13. we can come back. If we hit 6 plus 3 pointers in the 2nd half I know it will be a game. Let's go blue
28% from the floor. That is all.
I wish CBB would go with the tip off for possession tie ups
Go away
Now, just go. If you're going to hate on Beilein, then go and start a thread somewhere (you can't here anyway, thankfully). I hear MLive is looking for content...
Wow great hands by Burke.
They're just playing harder than us.
we don't have our "A" game and they know it; we're their rival and they mean to plant us into the floor...
I don't think that speech that everyone was hoping for during halftime happened. It looks like maybe they just ate a few hot dogs instead.
How is that a foul if he is straight up and down
Defensive charge on Smith Jr. just now I think....
Just go away troll.
No flow whatsoever
Is it really good game planning to have J.Mo setting high screens on offense the majority of the time? What the hell is he going to do with the ball from the top of the arc? Once in a blue moon, he cuts through the key to open a passing lane. Otherwise it's like watching an oak tree take up space where a guard or SF should be.
Morgan looks good.
not Morgan's day
closer to the hoop...
Is it possible this could push us to the 4 line?
I don't think so, but I know nothing about what goes into the selection
what the fuck was that Jordan?!
Morgan 5 footer about 3 feet over the basket. ugh
Jeez, Morgan is not playing well AT ALL. Good choice to sit him down.
fucked game by M
I have no explanation for what that was.
Morgan...just wow
Even Graham Brown thought Morgans shot was awful.
Seriously, can't we get a hand-eye coordination coach to work with Morgan over the summer? His hands are Kwame Brown-level.
We just need Bacari to really work on his post game over the summer.
Then please go away.
Jesus morgan
missed the 3 footer by 4 feet
It seems like it does come down to being tired. Well, no more back to back games this season and that bodes well.
Yeah, but why are we tired and they're not?
But OSU's players are tired too. Thad Matta is notorious for only playing 7-8 players extensively.
Craft, Buford, and Thomas each played 38 minutes in their game against Purdue yesterday. And Sullinger played 36 minutes. Smith played 26 and Sam Thompson played 13. No other OSU player payed more than 3 minutes.
There have been nights in which he has had big moments, but just like today, I've seen it happen all too often. Jordan Morgan is playing like the Steven Threet of UM basketball, failing miserably while we wait for someone in next years recruiting class to replace him.
Hope we wear the Maize uni in the tourney
As a 5 seed

Annual Awards Dinner
Each spring at its Annual Awards Dinner, the Exploratorium celebrates great achievements in science, art, and technology by honoring special individuals chosen by their peers for their groundbreaking accomplishments, discoveries, or theories. Now in its thirty-third year, the Dinner is the Bay Area's premier event in its realm, referred to as the "Oscar Night of Science."
The Awards Dinner, which annually raises over $1 million, is also the Exploratorium's major fundraising event, enabling the museum to continue its prodigious work. The Exploratorium is much more than a collection of exhibits. In fact, what most people see when they visit is just a small part of what the Exploratorium is all about. Our reach goes far beyond the museum's walls, transforming teacher practices, creating alternative educational experiences, developing institutional partnerships, networks, and online communities, and extending learning experiences to people all around the world. Our goal is to give people of all ages not just the tools, but also the confidence they need to become active investigators and explorers, helping them let go of old, passive models of learning and see themselves as active partners in the learning process.

Marcin Gortat is a perfect fit for us right in his prime doesnt have the best D but he can improve. he would fit good right next too la , and Lillard could run alot of pick and rolls with him like nash when he was in PHX . what would it take too get him ? sign & trade hickson , jeffries(expiring contract) palvoic(expiring contract) too phx . backup SG/ Free Agent Nick Young, Oj Mayo, Tony Allen, Lance Stephenson, jj redick, Treke Evans, Wes Johnson, Randy Foye. one of thoses guys would be perfect too either come off the bench or start alongside lillard and batum id prolly go with Lance Stephenson(cheap) or Nick Young(instant O) then as for Eric Maynor 3 yrs 5 million. back up PF dante cunningham too a 2 yr 3 million as far as our 12th pick(best player on the board) or trade down(franklin) San diego state. so our roster next year would look something like this. bring matthews off the bench to give our bench some scoring.
1. lillard/maynor/FA
what do you think blazer nation ?
3.batum/clavor/2 round pick
Posted 04/10/2013 4:17 PM
Phoenix will trade Gortat but to free up cap room so they won't want JJ in return
Posted 04/10/2013 6:04 PM
Lance Stevenson ? If thats the kid from my hometown NYC, snatch him if you can. As for Gortat, i like that cat but id still prefer Timofey Mosgov.http://youtu.be/pe1TWI6nq_0. A 25 year old 7 footer with size and skill, and something to prove since he's just been marinating on Denver's bench. Last but not least is Mr. JJ Redick. That kid catching dimes from Lillard would be dangerous. Talk about having to play Lillard honest, Reddick will light that a#! up.
Beast squad:Lillard,Reddick,Batum,L.A. Mogov

Matthews is a more dangerous shooter than Redick

Mozgov is a quesion mark to me.....Theres a chance he can be a great center...but I dont know hes not getting ANY minutes...If George Karl saw something in him he would have gave him some minutes...
If we can get Gortat for some of the offers that I am hearing then pull the trigger......
Reddick will cost too much in my opinion. I dont think we need more 3pt shooters.

Redick is a great shooter and he was good this year as a 6th man on a squad that was in real turmoil. What made him good on the Magic team was the fact that he got open looks when Howard was working the post and getting double teamed.
I don't think we need more shooters. I agree we need a solid defensive Center to provide weak side help and rebounding. In the western conference, rebounding is key so going after Gortat would be a good idea. Hickson is good and I like him a lot, I just think he's a poor defender and we cant have that. 10.7 rebounds a night looks great on paper, but his plus/minus takes that right away.
I say we draft a strong wing man like Shabbaz Muhammad or a scoring sixth man like CJ McCollum and go after Gortat and trade hickson back to Cleveland for Tristan Thompson who is still in his rookie contract and will be a good back-up PF. He's really improved this year and plays well near the basket but can knock down open jumpers.

It was just a suggestion. JJ was a Cav before and now that he's a bit more mature and has shown how good he can be, he may be able to help that young core of Irving and Waiters. I don't see them trading Varejao or Speights so they could use front court help. A solid PF who will give effort and hustle. JJ is more suited to playing in the eastern conference anyway.
Again, Thompson is a young big who could be a solid back up to LA and could even hold that position in games while LA slides over to the 5 if we want to play small. His upside is what attracts me to the idea of seeing him in Rip City learning from the games best PF. And he wont dent our cap space. We could even throw a 2nd round pick in there to sweeten the deal.

First Game starts tonight. Houston is a tough first round opponent and they play exceptionally well at home. If we can steal a game or two at their place, I feel like we have extremely good chances.
P.S. Would anybody happen to have a...

The Blazers were winning!  That is the key word, were.  Blazers are living proof that you can live and die by the jumper.  Lately it has been dying.
Thank God they are 19 games over 500.  Mayb...

Hawes will be a hot commodity by the trade deadline, I would think the sixers could find a better offer.
However, I do believe Mo Williams could have somewhat of  a high trade value. Olshey needs to make a deal to get a big man while we...
