Almost Heaven Saunas Princeton 6-person Outdoor Steam Sauna
Item #688160
The 6-person 8' Barrel Sauna has the same construction attributes as the 4-person model, but will accommodate up to six people. The long interior benches will allow six people to sit in comfort, or two people to stretch out and fully recline. You will experience the health and relaxation benefits of a traditional steam sauna that will reach temperatures in in excess of 190F. You can sprinkle water on the hot rocks to generate a burst of steam that engulfs the entire room with steam and a blast of heat.
The Barrel Sauna is constructed of hand-selected, high-grade Western Canadian red cedar. The lumber is hand-milled into a ball and socket profile that allows the staves to fit snuggly together when drawn tight with the stainless steel bands. The sauna is designed for outdoor use and will heat in 30-60 minutes, even in the coldest of temperatures. The thick cedar construction is a great insulator, allowing for low operating costs in any climate.

Rated 5 out of 5�by sbeadles Love this Jacket I purchased this jacket because I have good experience with the North Face Products I've had in the past but the deciding factor for me was the High Visibility color. I wanted / needed the jacket for riding my motorcycle in light rain and wanted to be as visible and safe as possible in those rainy, misty situations. Just came back from a 7 day trip on my bike and had several occasions to use the jacket and it performed better than expected. I tucked the hood into the back collar and zipped it up and no problems with the rain getting in. Also, the adjustable cuffs on the sleeves allowed me to have air flow into the jacket to keep me cool when it wasn't raining. Overall, I love the jacket, fit & quality are up to North Face standards and the price was reasonable. Glad Dicks offers quality products like this to choose from. :-) September 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Chaz K Wanted a Waterproof(rain) outer garment I bought this jacket only a couple of weeks ago. Am looking forward to the first time I will need to use it. I made the purchase based on the reputation of the product maker and having several acquaintances who own North Face clothing. September 4, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by TravelingGrammy Returned this product At first I really liked the Stinson jacket, but after researching, I found that North Face had a similar jacket for just a few more dollars that could be packed in its own pocket, had a better hood adjustment and had underarm zips. Because of those 3 important features, I returned the Stinson North Face jacket and bought the Venture Jacket directly from a NorthFace Store. September 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Steve Nice Jacket Nice lightweight jacket. Water proof and warm enough for a cool rainy day. August 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Starshiptrooper This Jacket met my requirements I was looking for a high quality jacket for cooler weather. It has been generally warm, but I did get to use it a few early mornings that were cool. The jacket has shown itself to be comfortable, so far. I have not encountered any precipitation conditions yet, so I cannot comment how it works under those conditions. August 27, 2014

GFP News - October 4, 2012
- Deer Die-Off Prompts Reduction of Some Unsold East River Licenses
- GFP Receives Grant To Repair LaFramboise Island Trails
- Salmon Station Open For Egg Collection
Deer die-off prompts reduction of some unsold East River licenses
DEADWOOD, S.D. - The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department has conducted surveillance and taken reports of dead deer across many counties in southeast and south-central parts of the state to help determine the severity of this year's Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) outbreak.
Reports of dead deer has GFP taking actions to reduce harvest and encouraging hunters to visit early with landowners to determine local impacts and opportunities.
"The deer die-offs reported have been local in nature for many areas and not evenly distributed across each county," GFP Secretary Jeff Vonk said. "Because the impact of EHD can vary, it is essential that hunters check with their local landowner on the status of the deer herd on properties they hunt."
Vonk added that GFP is still actively monitoring the deer herd throughout the state. "We are grateful for the cooperation we have received from landowners and hunters. We have a common goal of doing what is best for our deer herd, and we will continue to evaluate additional reports and take further proactive measures if necessary."
In response to the deer die-offs in eastern SD, the GFP Commission took emergency action at their October 4 meeting which provided Secretary Vonk the authority to immediately reduce the number of licenses available prior to the second drawing of the East River Deer hunting season.
As a result of the Secretary"s actions, all unsold licenses have been removed from deer hunting units in Bon Homme, Hutchinson, Yankton, Clay, Union and Charles Mix counties.
In addition, the Commission and Secretary Vonk authorized the elimination of all unsold licenses in southern Perkins County as a result of further EHD developments there.
Hunters have also been given the option of turning in their deer license if they feel it is in their best interest to cancel their hunting plans. The license and associated tags must be returned to the GFP Licensing Office before the start of that respective season. If applicable, GFP will reinstate hunter preference points for the first drawing.
Hunters desiring a refund for a deer license should send their license, including all associated tags, to: GFP Licensing Office; 20641 SD Highway 1806; Fort Pierre, SD 57532.
GFP Receives Grant To Repair LaFramboise Island Trails
PIERRE, S.D. - The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department announced today that it has received a grant in the amount of $1,596 from the South Dakota Parks and Wildlife Foundation to repair LaFramboise Island trails that were extensively damaged by last year's Missouri River flooding.
The funds granted to GFP were provided by contributions from members of the Capital City Bicycle Club of Pierre and have been held in a dedicated account at the Foundation for the purpose of improving or repairing bike trails in central South Dakota.
"Bike riders in our community are anxious to access the trails on LaFramboise again," said Tom Lee, president of the Capital City Bicycle Club. "We know there is considerable expense involved in making these trails usable after the flooding, and we are happy to contribute funds to help with the cost."
Although the main trails are scheduled to be open on Saturday, Oct. 6, additional cleanup and repair of the trails will be needed, noted Ryan Raynor, GFP district park supervisor.
A volunteer work day has been organized for Oct. 6 to help clean up and repair trails. Interested volunteers should meet at the picnic shelter at 9 a.m. Volunteers are asked to bring their own pruners, rakes, non-motorized saws and protective gear if possible.
Salmon Station Open For Egg Collection
PIERRE, S.D. - The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department has opened the Whitlock Bay Salmon Spawning Station for the 2012 season, but the flood of 2011 may make it a challenge to gather enough adult salmon for egg collection.
Fisherman caught fewer salmon this year, and GFP personnel expect fewer salmon than usual to show up at the spawning station.
"The low number of salmon in Lake Oahe is due to a loss of salmon during the 2011 flood," said GFP fisheries biologist Robert Hanten. "The extremely high water release from Lake Oahe pulled salmon congregating near the face of the dam through intakes into Lake Sharpe. We did gain some North Dakota salmon, but fewer angler catches this year indicate low salmon numbers in Lake Oahe."
Fisheries crews will electrofish on Lakes Oahe and Sharpe in an attempt to collect additional adult salmon for egg collection.
Chinook salmon do not naturally reproduce in Lake Oahe and would not exist there without GFP collecting eggs, raising young salmon and stocking them back into the lake for anglers.
Each year, juvenile Chinook salmon are stocked throughout Lake Oahe. They then disperse throughout the reservoir until becomiong sexually mature. Flowing water down the fish ladder attracts the mature fish to the station where GFP personnel collect, sort and spawn the salmon.
The Oahe salmon fishery is very popular with anglers. Surveys show a high percentage of salmon anglers travel more than 200 miles one way for the chance to catch the hard-fighting fish.
Whitlock Bay Salmon Station is 18 miles northwest of Gettysburg by West Whitlock Recreation Area. The station is open for tours from 9-11 a.m. on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays during October; the fish ladder observation deck is open to the public at any time. Group tours can also be arranged by calling 605.223.7681.

Our First Glimpse of Rising Price Action
A: Since all of us are always so curious about which way prices are headed in Manhattan real estate, lets keep today's discussion on price action tools to watch. Lets also define price action as the general trend in closing prices as they become public record giving us the first glimpse of "where bids came in" for deals signed into contract 2-3+ months ago. The first place I look to find quantifiable trend changes in Manhattan price action is the Streeteasy Condo Index. Then I expect the brokerage's in-house quarterly market reports will confirm or disprove what UD real-time inventory trends have been signaling for months and what the Streeteasy Condo Index is showing for sales prices. With the latest info in on the SE index, we get our first glimpse of rising price action as deals finally close and become public record.
I want to be clear I am talking about general market price trends here for all of Manhattan by analyzing same unit repeat condo sales. There are a bunch of ways we can further slice and dice Manhattan up, whether its:
a) by prop type, coop versus condo price trends
b) by price point
c) by neighborhood
d) by bldg service level or age
e) by quality tier (think rooftop PH condos in Tribeca w/ Hudson river views, etc)
The fact is that in Manhattan every building is its own local marketplace and that is where you should focus when a target unit needs to be priced out. So for this discussion lets just keep it simple and focus on the recent uptick in broader market price trends for Manhattan.
Below is a chart showing the SE Manhattan Condo Index from 2005 to July 2012 (using the downloaded data), with a little formatting to the range on the left side vertical axis so the market changes are a bit easier to visualize:
Lets recap the major trend changes this price action index for Manhattan experienced since 2005:
2005 Pre-Euphoria --> This is when sales offices for a host of new dev's started to open up. Inventory was very tight back in these days and I recall buyers' rising excitement over new projects that weren't even close to completion as they wanted in on first level pre-construction prices. Most sales offices would only release batches of units which often sold out in weeks and then was followed by higher prices as sponsors filed new amendments to take advantage of the rising demand for new dev supply. Tight inventory, rising demand.
The Peak --> Supply builds as 100s of sales offices are kicking into high gear. I put the peak of the Manhattan marketplace at deals signed into contract between early and fall 2007. The brewing credit crisis was yet to have any meaningful impact on bids. Growing inventory, high demand.
The Credit Crisis --> All bets are off as buyer confidence plunges and so do bids. Buyers start to price in 'future downside risks' in their bids and deal volume plunges as sellers fear the worst. The best deals were had in the early months of 2009. Rapidly rising supply, plunging demand.
Stabilization --> We see a progressive reflation starting in the lower price points and moving to higher end price points as we go through 2010 and 2011. Buyers start to realize the 'end of the world' isn't happening from Armageddon fears in 2009. After a quick pop off the bottom, Manhattan prices tend to stabilize in a trading range for much of 2010 and early 2011, before the high end sees a big uptick in activity in mid 2011. Supply starts to decline, demand starts to return.
The Recent Up-Trend --> The last 5-6 months saw very strong contract activity with the peak occurring around May. These deals are starting to close and the Index is beginning to reflect the rise in "price action". I still expect this trend to continue as the pipeline of pending sales remains high. Inventory is very tight, demand continues to be relatively strong compared to years past.
It makes me so excited to see the UrbanDigs real-time tools accurately predict future price action trend changes by tracking inventory shifts in this fast paced craziness we call Manhattan real estate. In the end, nobody knows where those bids are on a mass level until the City Register files the closing; and that could take anywhere between 2 weeks to 5+ months. In the meantime, we are all screaming for this information so that we can properly advise our clients and manage both buy side and sell side expectations on market changes that may be occurring in real-time. No easy task.
But this uptrend that started 3yrs ago and went into overdrive over the last 5 months, was easy to interpret using UrbanDigs tools. Now comes the price discovery part -- expect more to come.

Sept. 6: A Berwyn man charged with drunken driving was carrying two pairs of brass knuckles when he was stopped earlier this month, police said.
Justin M. Gilley, 23, of the 4200 block of Home Avenue, Berwyn, was charged with driving under the influence, DUI with a blood-alcohol level greater than 0.08, driving without insurance, speeding, improper lane use and unlawful use of a weapon, according to Palos Heights police.
Gilley's car was stopped at about 2:46 a.m. in the 12000 block of South Harlem Avenue, police said. Cops on the scene determined Gilley was intoxicated. During a search, an officer recovered two pairs of brass knuckles. Bail was set at $3,000. Gilley is due on Sept. 27 in Bridgeview court.
Sept. 5: A driver was slapped with a DUI after cops spotted him make multiple traffic violations.
Mladen Zugaj, 39, of the 17000 block of Grissom Drive, Tinley Park, was charged with driving under the influence, driving without a rear plate light, following too closely and improper lane use, according to a Palos Heights police report. Officers stopped Zugaj at about 9:10 p.m. in the 13500 block of South Harlem Avenue. He was pulled over for allegedly committing several traffic offenses.
Zugaj was found to be under the influence of alcohol, police said. Officers at the scene placed him under arrest. Bail was set at $3,000. Zugaj is due on Oct. 22 in Bridgview court.
Aug. 30: Cops trying to pull over a PT Cruiser watched as the driver repeatedly nodded off behind the wheel.
Joanne O'Marrah, 61, of the 13500 block of Kristoffer, Orland Park, was accused of drunken driving and possessing heroin , police said. An officer was called at about 4:29 p.m. to the area of 159th Street and Cicero Avenue for a report of a driver who might be intoxicated, according to an Oak Forest police report. The caller pointed to a black PT Cruiser and cops followed the swerving car for several blocks.
The officer turned on the lights and sirens and pulled up next to the car, the report states. The driver, O'Marrah, continued westbound on 159th, slowing to 25 mph in a 45 mph zone. O'Marrah appeared to be repeatedly falling asleep at the wheel.
Cops in two cars eventually boxed in the PT Cruiser and brought it to a stop, the report states. Police said O'Marrah acted confused, gave incoherent answers to questions and had a strong odor of alcohol on her breath. She told cops she needed to sneeze and rubbed her nose frequently while speaking.
One officer noticed a white powder substance on the driver's nose, the report states. A clear, pint-sized vodka bottle could be seen next to the seat. O'Marrah fell on the grass during a test for sobriety. She was unable to finish the remaining tests.
Police called an ambulance to take O'Marrah to Palos Community Hospital, the report states. While she was being transported, police searched her purse and allegedly found three foil packets filled with a white powder that tested positive for heroin. O'Marrah was charged with possession of a controlled substance, driving under the influence, illegally transporting alcohol, failing to stop for an emergency vehicle and improper lane use.
Sept. 5: A New Lenox woman who allegedly sped over the limit was charged with drunken driving, police said.
Gita Avgeris, 33, of the 200 block of East Woodlawn Road, faces charges of driving under the influence, illegally transporting alcohol and speeding, New Lenox police said.
Cops found a vehicle speeding at about 11:43 p.m. near the intersection of Cedar and Fir, police said. During a stop, an officer determined that the driver was under the influence of alcohol and had an open container. Avgeris posted bond and was released.

Small Cool 2010: Kathryn's Cozy Contrast
Little Division #3
Who Lives Here: Kathryn + 1 + cat
Location: Burlington, Vermont
Size: 690 square feet
What is your favorite element of your Small & Cool home? I love the contrast of the airiness of the white walls and high ceilings with the cozier feel of the black livingroom space. Friends love our never-ending gallery throughout the place.
Thumbs Up Voting is only activated for 48 Hours — so don't delay!
What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your Small Cool home? Lighting! There were no fixtures in the apartment when we moved in (something I failed to notice on the sunny day we rented the place!)

Love that you weren't afraid to do black walls in a small place.
I really want to hope that I'd like this but crappy lighting and odd angles (with the exception of #3 & 4) make this a hard one to judge, although, I appreciate the apartment layout.
I love the black wall! It looks great with the sunburst mirror.
i can still appreciate the style and design of this very real and cozy space, regardless of picture quality/lighting. it's hard to take pictures in a small space! especially if you don't have any photography training.
i'm not getting a feel for your condo from the photos you submitted. you mentioned dark in your description and i wonder if it is your camera or the lack of lighting. the artwork on the walls seem a tad bit much for my taste. but appreciate that you put it all out there.
It seems to me that any "dark" is definitely a product of the photography. This is a lovely home and full of personality. I would feel very comfortable here.
Thanks for your 'thumbs up' and sorry about my crappy camera work! It's tough to take panoramic shots when you're inside a small (cool) space.
I'm guessing it may also be tough to get my deposit back with all the holes I've put in the walls, not to mention the black paint...
I'm just glad that after three moves in three years I've managed to fit all my existing furniture in each place (and I get to keep trying out new layouts and colour schemes).
Oh my goodness, I LOVE this!!!
I love your space! It's fantastic! I'm a huge sucker for black walls, too, so good on you for just going for it! It looks great. :)
Hope you don't mind my asking, but where did you get your sofa from?
I like the "gallery" idea and might use it in my next place, as I have tons of artwork and stuff for the walls.
I hate purple. Really hate it. And I gave you a thumbs up. This was nice. Very good job.
Is it purple or black? It looks purple.
Still it is nice.
Who cares about the quality of the photos. I think this place is beautiful and original. Thumbs up!!!
Love this.
I think this would be my very favorite so far, but the pictures are really bad. Why oh why? But still, thumbs up!
I dont think the pics were THAT bad!
I loved the purple/black wall, but not sure it works with the white-ish colour of the other wall?
But I still think it looked cosy and warm and lived in
Even though the photos are poor quality your home still looks lovely.
I'm liking the window frame on the bedroom wall, and where did you get that gorgeous mirror?
Krissy B - the sofa is from IKEA. It's the EKESKOG. It's huge (almost 8' long) and comfy (40" deep) and often a challenge to fit into a small space or up the flights of stairs when moving, but sooo worth it. It seats 4 or 5 during movie nights or family visits and is the size of a single bed for hosting an overnight guest.
laurapescot - glad you like the place, even with the 'purple'. The wall was meant to be black. Sometimes in the daytime there is the faintist tinge of eggplant to it. I think the paint colour was called 'Napoleon'.
AngelaDee76 - the mirror was a total score at Pier 1 (about 6 years ago).
If we could get some sunshine here in Vermont, I'd be happy to retake & repost some crisper photos. I think the low light from the drizzy, grey spring days *sigh* is resulting in the grainy-ness.
Favorite so far! The dining room is especially lovely. Great job!
Also, hooray for Burlington! It's nice to see VT entering into the game.
There's actually something charming about the grainy photos -- like they were taken with my old Kodak Instamatic. Good luck covering that black wall when it's time to move;-)
Thanks for the votes!
Gvinton- the dining table is probably my favourite piece. It's decoupaged - covered with ticket stubs, maps and other paraphernalia from a 3 month trip through France, Italy and Greece. The best thing about it is it doesn't show crumbs or spills.
I think the murky, vintagey, 70s-summer-afternoon quality of your photos works beautifully with the aesthetic of your place. Neat and dreamy. I like.
What's happening on the dining table? Collage? I like the tones.
Great use of space and I really like the dark wall. I also have a very dark (brown) wall in a rather small room and love it - everything really stands out against it.
i like the pics -- they have a very vintage better homes and gardens kind of thing going on with the color wash and grain. everyone is so pissy about their digital.
did you use a digital camera to the pics?
oh -- and the black paint will cover with killz. you will give your landlord a heart attack if you don't paint before you move out. i had an old roommate that insisted on a black dining room. i was busy painting everything else dark purple.
This makes me want to move to Burlington.
It's black!? Uh-oh. I gave it a thumbs up because I thought it was a nice use of purple as a backdrop for video watching!

NCAA swings and misses again, this time with Oregon and Chip Kelly
6/26/13 in NCAAF | Tyler_Waddell | 426 respect
Oregon, which had paid a scout close to $25,000 to sway recruits into committing to the Ducks and then covered the tracks, escaped a bowl ban—which seemed almost inevitable.
It's quite puzzling how Oregon was handed such a inconsequential slap on the wrist, only having to endure three years probation and a loss of two scholarships over as many years (the total dropping from 85 to 84).
What's even more laughable is the 18-month show-cause penalty Kelly has to serve, which means he can't coach collegiate sports for the next year and a half. His $6.5 million-per-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles tells me he won't be itching to get back to the college level anytime soon, so this sanction is nearly pointless.
Actually, the penalty as a whole is a joke. It's like the NCAA held Oregon's hand while giving it a shot on the arm, and then kissed it and told it that everything was going to be alright. AND the Ducks got a lolipop to take home.
Let's take a look at some of the NCAA's most recent work and compare it to its investigation with Oregon:
Ohio State got hit with a bowl ban over players pawning off memorabilia for tattoos, in addition to loss of three scholarships per year for three years and a three-year probation period.
Pac-12 Conference rival USC had a two-year bowl ban for the Reggie Bush scandal that was never directly tied to the university or football program. The Trojans lost 10 scholarships per year for three years (a crippling amount), received a four-year probation period and was forced to vacate its 2004 BCS National Championship win.
Whether Oregon deserved a postseason ban or not, the biggest swing-and-miss here is with Kelly. He was the ringleader of the football program and had full control over this scandal, meaning he should have to deal with the repercussions—not everyone he left behind to clean up his mess.
Former Ohio State coach Jim Tressel was given a five-year show-cause penalty for covering up his findings on the Buckeyes' scandal, which revolved around a couple star players. He also was forced to serve a five-game suspension in the NFL after accepting an advisory position with the Indianapolis Colts.
Kelly fled Eugene just a few months before the NCAA released its findings, and it's arguable that his wrong-doings were much worse than that of Tressel's, who was just trying to protect his players. Kelly deliberately broke rules and won't suffer any consequence—and is making a couple extra million in the process.
NCAA President Mark Emmert and the Committee on Infractions have been walking on thin ice after their last few cases, and the ground beneath them is beginning to crack.

Markets flash warning signals
With the averages hitting new highs, many stocks are overvalued fundamentally and overbought technically.
This week all five major equity averages set a series of new all-time highs, or multi-year highs. As this occurred the pundits on financial TV called for S&P 1700 saying that stocks were still cheap. At ValuEngine we disagree.
Friday morning we show that 66.3% of all stocks are overvalued, where readings above 65% define a ValuEngine valuation warning, which typically occurs prior to a market top. Today we show that 26.6% of all stocks are overvalued by more than 20%. We also show that 15 of 16 sectors are overvalued, with 11 sectors overvalued by double-digit percentages. This makes investing more like trading technical momentum.
As stocks move to new highs they become overvalued fundamentally and overbought technically, and can trade above their risky levels. Many stocks and indices form parabolic upside patterns that become bubbles, and all bubbles eventually pop.
Apple (AAPL) can be viewed as the poster child for this pattern. When Apple was trading above $700 a share on Sept. 21, several Wall Street analysts raised their price target to $1,000. One headline posted on the Internet on Sept. 18 says, "Apple will cross $1,000 within 15 months." At ValuEngine our price target was just above $700 and the stock was downgraded to hold from buy at that time.
Even with a valuation warning, when you cannot confirm a market high based upon the technicals, you get higher highs as the bubbles continue to inflate.
On April 19 I wrote on that while warning flags were flying, a stock top could not yet be confirmed (TheStreet) as the weekly chart profiles did not shift to negative. A week later on April 26 I wrote on TheStreet, Dow, S&P, Nasdaq Poised To Recapture March/April Highs and this week we have seen a continuation of higher highs.
On Thursday the major averages set new intra-day highs at; 15,144.83 Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU), 1635.01 S&P 500 ($INX), 3428.54 Nasdaq ($COMPX), 6417.38 Dow transports and 970.46 Russell 2000. Dow transports ended Thursday below Wednesday's low at 6341 setting up a potential key reversal given lower closes today and Monday.
Over the past several weeks I indicated that weekly closes above my semiannual pivot at 1566.9 on the S&P 500 would indicate upside potential to my semiannual pivot at 965.51 on the Russell 2000, which has been accomplished. A close today above 965.51 Russell 2000 indicates a potential continuation of the bubbles to my semiannual risky level at 3583 on the Nasdaq. If this occurs, the valuation warning will intensify particularly with the yield on the 30-Year Treasury above 3%.
A close today below 965.51 on the Russell 2000 indicates risk to my semiannual pivots at 1566.9 S&P 500 and 5955 Dow transports. Below is my semiannual value level at 14,323 on Dow industrials. These levels will be with us until the end of June.
My prediction remains that the major equity averages will test my annual value levels at some point in 2013 at: 12,696 Dow industrials, 1348.3 S&P 500, 2806 Nasdaq, 5469 Dow transports and 809.54 Russell 2000.
The Dow utilities mini bubble pops
The utility average set a multi-year high at 537.86 on April 30 between my quarterly pivot at 524.16 and my annual risky level at 540.37. This index still has the largest distribution of buy rated stocks so downside to my monthly value level at 509.53 should provide a buying opportunity. There are 63 strong buy rated stocks and 125 buy rated stock in this sector of 215 names, thus 87.4% of all utility stocks have buy ratings.
On April 30 I wrote on TheStreet, Homebuilder Downgrades Cloud Earnings, and since then there has been five downgrades even as the PHLX Housing Sector Index (^HGX) set a new multi-year high at 205.95 on Thursday.
Beazer Homes (BZH) ($20.17 vs. $16.38 on April 30): Has been downgraded to "sell" from "hold" and set a new 2013 high at $20.65 on May 9.
Hovnanian (HOV) ($5.99 vs. $5.56 on April 30): Has been downgraded to "hold" from "buy" and tested $6.08 on May 7. This gave buy-and-trade investors the opportunity to sell at my semiannual risky level at $6.00.
Lennar (LEN) ($42.40 vs. $41.42 on April 30): Has been downgraded to "sell" from "hold" and tested $43.62 on May 9.
MDC Holdings (MDC) ($38.06 vs. $37.80 on April 30): Has been downgraded to "sell" from "hold" and tested $39.25 on May 2.
PulteGroup (PHM) ($22.85 vs. $21.21 on April 30): Has been downgraded to "sell" from "hold" and set a new multi-year high at $23.95 on May 9.
On May 2 I wrote a story showing (see TheStreet) that only Citigroup (C) ($48.60 vs. $45.87 on May 2) has a "buy" rating. Investors should consider booking profits on this buy-and-trade strategy on strength to my monthly risky level at $51.61.
On May 8 I wrote on TheStreet, Record High Transports a Second Chance to Sell and each of the eight "sell"-rated names traded sideways to up that day, giving investors a second chance to take some nice gains on stocks rated "avoid-source of funds." Friday morning we show that 83.2% of all transportation stocks are rated "sell" or "strong sell."
One of the Dow components I have been tracking, Caterpillar (CAT) ($89.95), has been downgraded to "sell" from "hold" and traded up to $90.69 on Thursday vs. my monthly risky level at $90.84.
At the time of publication the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.

This article seems to be nothing more than an ad for their "ValuEngine"
Sure stocks could be overbought - that's pretty easy to say when we're at all time highs. Their calls on what is and isn't overvalued is only as good as their models... which could be just as wrong as the models the analysis used to give Apple a $1,000 price target.
I need something more here. WHY are things overvalued - just because ValuEngine says so?
I say ignore this for general market movement, and look for early signs that the money being pumped in by the fed is finally making it's way to the consumer. Significantly increased demand in the domestic economy. These are the same things the Fed is looking for I would think. when they come inflation is going to follow, and QE will be retrenched. A question remains as to whether the Fed will try to anticipate inflation, or wait to actually see dubious upticks in CPI. Until those things happen expect the markte to keep holding its own or better as long as corporate earnings hold up to outlooks.
I majored in art-history, so this free advice is worth what it costs....
Boys and girls, you need to pay attention now.
let me share a pearl of wisdom or two with you.
We all have an investing style. Embrace it. It will be different and unique to you only.
Markets ultimately are like everything else. They rise.
Just pay attention and buy that which you know. Never try to be slick and time markets.
Making money in the market is merely a matter of using common sense and being patient.
Every stock I have ever bought has returned great dividends and appreciated better than
any other vehicle with which to invest.
Diversify your money a bit . That means cash, stocks, real estate. Gold or silver if you must.
Forget the hot tips. But do read everything you can find to keep yourself aware of what is happening to not only your investment vehicles, but other potential investments as well.
As for most all of the tips you receive, be thankful for them, but do not act on them.
The market may possibly decline temporarily, but will always rise in the long term.
Use that as your guide and you will flourish. I have.
Markets did fine today and did nicely for the week, at least we did....
I'm not sure what else to invest in at our age, so if there is a correction again...??
I will do the best I can and cover our azzes, then move on to the next level..
But I'm gonna sleep at nights...And not try CRAWLING that Wall of Worry.
Off to a Grad Party...Cheers.

I missed you so~ Its so good to be back doing business again.
I hate fucking planes. This trip better make up for having to get on one again.
Think of it as a honeymoon…
You are better with actions than words I think. But I will hold you to that.
S'our honeymoon. I'll give you some bloody romance later.
I'm finding myself increasingly lucky that none of my plans ever rely on your charms, my pet.
I could be charming if I wanted to.
I'm not entirely sure we have the same definition of charming, Sebastian. But I appreciate the thought.
I'll charm the pants off of you.
OOooooo Looking forward to it~!
Yeah. Damn right I will. Like Romeo or something.
That only works if you drink poison because you believe me to be dead. We played out that tragedy already, love. And we're both still very much alive. And I prefer to keep it that way, at the very least on my own end.
Yeah, let's not do that one again. Not really in the mood for you to be dead or shit like that, let's be honest.
Darling please stop posting your weaknesses on the internet for the world to read. I'm not in the mood for such voyeurism this evening.
Then I'll just wait until the hotel, yeah?
Right then. I'll have you crying out there.
threaten what you will. I always repay a debt. You know that better than most.
I meant in pleasure, you know.
Mmm well that's a different story entirely~
I thought you might see things my way.
I just enjoy seeing you squirm~
You know I'm always going to be the trustworthy man you hired, so nothing to worry 'bout there.
" I'll romance the fuck out of you. " -Do tell me that wasn't your attempt at romance, Sebastian, darling.

January 2, 2013
The global economy faces further challenges in 2013, but solid fundamentals make some stocks appear attractive.
The European debt crisis, the slowdown in China, and other challenges weighed on stocks early in 2012 and may continue to keep markets volatile in coming months. However, corporate profits have generally held up well despite the troubled economic environment, and valuations (stock prices relative to earnings) remain appealing in many markets.
The managers of T. Rowe Price's international equity funds recently offered their outlooks in shareholder reports covering the 12 months ended October 31, 2012.
David Eiswert, Global Stock Fund
While we expect global growth to be modest over the intermediate term, we are optimistic that the path forward will be less rocky. Despite a low-growth environment, we see numerous opportunities among various companies. Outstanding growth companies with healthy balance sheets are plentiful, and many have been overlooked by investors due to widespread risk aversion.
Bob Smith, International Stock Fund
If extreme events can be avoided, stocks should move higher as many companies are performing well, continue to report solid revenues and earnings, and have fundamentally sound balance sheets. In our view, stocks are currently priced at reasonable, if not cheap, valuations.
Jonathan Matthews, International Growth & Income
Generally, we remain mindful that uncertainty creates opportunity for value-minded investors with longer-term time horizons. Stocks in many sectors and regions are trading at what we believe are very attractive valuations…we are confident that we are finding companies that will eventually see better earnings and revenues, even if their host economies remain lackluster.
Some slower-growing "value" stocks may offer opportunities for contrarian investors.
Ray Mills, Overseas Stock Fund
The muted economic environment is certainly challenging, but we continue to find companies doing a good job of controlling costs and growing profits.
Dean Tenerelli, European Stock Fund
…We believe the Continent has not yet hit the equivalent of an economic bottom. Austerity measures are encouragingly lowering debt-to-GDP rates—but at the cost of growth…On the bright side—and even after the recent gains in equity markets—valuations in European companies remain at 25-year lows and appear attractive. Many companies have strong fundamentals, with healthy balance sheets, low inventory levels, and growth opportunities outside their home markets.
Europe remains the weak leg of the global economy, but T. Rowe Price's London-based managers believe investor pessimism has left some companies with attractive valuations.
Leigh Innes, Emerging Europe Fund
Accommodative monetary policies in key global economies have provided a near-term tailwind for emerging markets. However, the repercussions of fiscal austerity in the eurozone, along with continued volatility in commodity prices, remain concerning and are likely to keep markets volatile.
Campbell Gunn, Japan Fund
Japan has faced a multitude of headwinds in recent years but has continued to demonstrate remarkable resilience. However, a sustained recovery will require a reversal in the trend of U.S. dollar weakness, which in turn is mostly a factor of relative central bank policy—a dynamic not entirely in Japan's own hands.
Japanese stocks lagged over the past year, hampered in part by the weakening yen, which weighed on returns for U.S. investors.
Gonzalo Pángaro, Emerging Markets Stock Fund
Across the emerging universe, disposable incomes and living standards are rising, the middle class is expanding, and consumer-driven industries are growing. We believe these trends will drive strong and sustainable growth for many years, even if the global growth outlook stays uncertain in the near term.
Emerging markets are generally in better shape than their developed counterparts.
José Costa Buck, Latin America Fund
Despite the past year's declines, we remain optimistic about Latin America's long-term growth outlook. In every country across the region, disposable incomes and consumption are growing strongly, and the middle class continues to expand in size and wealth. We believe these trends will drive strong and sustainable growth over time, particularly for industries driven by domestic demand.
Latin American markets have felt the impact of falling commodities exports, but growing domestic demand creates long-term opportunities.
Anh Lu, New Asia Fund
We believe that economic growth across Asia will stabilize in 2013, and earnings expectations have been reset at more reasonable levels. However, we anticipate that financial markets will remain somewhat volatile in the near term and that events in Europe, the pace of the U.S. recovery, and the extent of China's slowdown will continue to impact investor demand for Asian stocks.
A slowdown in China's remarkable growth has weighed on Asian markets, but T. Rowe Price's Hong Kong-based managers are hopeful that the regional economy will stabilize in 2013.
Susanta Mazumdar, Global Infrastructure Fund
In this uncertain environment, we believe investors are looking for ways to access global growth opportunities with less volatility, looking for stocks that combine steady and sustainable dividend growth with moderate appreciation potential—stocks that form the core of our investment approach.
Rapid growth in emerging markets is driving investment in infrastructure, which may benefit a range of companies.
International investments are subject to market risk, as well as risks associated with unfavorable currency exchange rates and political or economic uncertainty abroad. Funds with a relatively limited geographic orientation and exposure to emerging markets have an increased risk level.

A healthy sex life is one important ingredient to a committed, monogamous, and intimate relationship. But what happens when one partner's desire to experiment doesn't gel with your idea of healthy sex?
Dr. Wendy Walsh: First of all, you should know that a healthy sex life can involve a wide range of choices, behaviors, and fantasies. It could involve toys, stimulating visual media, verbal fantasies, and yes, for some, even the addition of another partner or two.
There are three factors that define sex as healthy:
1. It occurs between adults only.
2. Both parties are fully consenting.
3. It is physically safe.
That leaves room for plenty of personal tastes, and finding a common ground where both of you feel satisfied can sometimes be tricky. Crucial to a healthy sex life is good communication. Learning to make sexual requests in a kind, rather than critical, way is quite an art. Hint: Talk about sex in the vegetable aisle, in the car, at the ball game, but never during the act. There is too much room for explosions when someone feels cornered in bed.
But what do you do when your partner is asking for a style of sex that doesn't feel right for you? First of all, recognize that this happens to every couple. It is impossible to be sexual clones. And, know that this doesn't spell the end of a relationship. So, thank your partner for being brave and honest enough to voice such a request. Then ask for some time to think about it.
While you're taking that time, look inside yourself for the reasons for your discomfort. There could be early childhood trauma related to a certain act. It could be that the moral conditioning you received in your formative years runs counter to this request. It might be that you feel insecure about your own body, and this particular request might make you feel too self-conscious. Or, perhaps it causes anxiety because it creates fears that your partner might have learned this thing somewhere else. If you are able, I also suggest that you talk to an empathetic therapist about your feelings.
Every conflict in a relationship is an opportunity to grow closer. The next step, once you've identified the reasons behind your decision, is to express them to your partner in a loving, non-defensive way. Hopefully, this will open up a conversation about sex that will create new avenues for you as a couple. Maybe there is a compromise. I like to say that talking about sex is half the fun! Perhaps in this conversation you will come to a new understanding of your partner and he/she will know you better. This can lead to closer emotional intimacy, which is the real glue to all relationships.
Finally, if your partner is attempting to coerce you through threats of infidelity or other pressuring tactics, you might want to rethink the relationship as a whole. No one should ever participate in coerced sex.
|Dr. Wendy Walsh holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and her area of interest is Attachment Theory, a psychological, evolutionary and ethological theory that provides a descriptive and explanatory framework for understanding interpersonal relationships between human beings. As a psychological assistant registered with the California Board of Psychology, Dr. Walsh has treated individuals, couples and families for a variety of mental health concerns including personality disorders, anger management, eating and substance disorders, and depression.
how can monogamous sex involve bring other partners into the mix? please explain, dr. walsh.

Thirty Bucknell University Relay for Life committee members pose in the Gerhard Fieldhouse with a check for the American Cancer Society.
Fifty-four Bucknell teams with 10-15 members each participated in the American Cancer Society's 12-hour Relay for Life on Sunday, April 20, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. in the Gerhard Fieldhouse and raised more than $82,000.
"This is the second-highest grossing collegiate relay team in Pennsylvania," said Joshua Goodman, co-chair for the event. "That's pretty good for only our third relay.
"And we couldn't have done it without the Bucknell Greek organizations, who were huge contributors. The five top teams were Kappa Delta Rho fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, Alpha Chi Omega sorority, Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, and Chi Phi fraternity."
The Bucknell Relay for Life team, which is part of the Colleges Against Cancer, will continue to collect donations until Aug. 31. Visit http://events.cancer.org/Bucknell for more information or to donate.
