"To place a man in a multi-stage rocket and project him into the controlling gravitational field of the moon where the passengers can make scientific observations, perhaps land alive, and then return to earth--all that constitutes a wild dream worthy of Jules Verne. I am bold enough to say that such a man-made voyage will never occur regardless of all future advances."
Lee deForest, American radio pioneer ; 1957

Diner Reviews
Despite the restaurant being
packed we were seated right away. The special menu had a good selection of choices. The service was attentive (we never had to wait long between courses). While the appetizers were very good and the deserts were excellent we were disappointed in both of our main courses. I ordered the Montauk skate and while the dish was well prepared the portion size was more like an appetizer. My wife ordered the stuffed veal and while that was also well prepared the veal was very fatty so most of the dish was not edible. There was a large group sitting next to us where several people ordered the same dish and they had the same disappointing results. Needless to say if we return we will not be ordering these two main courses."

My friend and I chose Harvest on
Hudson for our Hudson Valley Restaurant. Everything was impeccable! Food, service, choices on menu for price fix. I highly recommend this restaurant anytime of year. The view is incredible, as well."
Dined on 3/10/2014
It use to be that it you wanted to
go out for a great meal or celebrate a special occasion Harvest would be the place to go. Six of us dined on Sunday evening and although we had a good time it was nothing to write home about, especially for the price. The service was neither poor nor great, the menu choices were so-so, and a few of the dishes arrived warm but not hot. I must say the next time I think about Harvest, I'll think again."
Dined on 3/9/2014
Six of us had brunch at Harvest to
celebrate my sister's engagement. Our server was friendly and didn't rush us...we spent ages talking before we ordered and she kept the mimosas coming. Everyone loved their dishes and there was enough of it so that no one ordered dessert, though I'm sure it would have been delicious. I'll be back when the weather's warmer to eat outside!"
Dined on 3/9/2014
Very professional, outstanding
service and food. All people in my party of four enjoyed the experience immensely Would definitely recommend this restaurant."
Dined on 3/8/2014
My first visit was last autumn
when we were able to dine outside at a table overlooking the Hudson River. This past Saturday we dined indoors. The main dining room is beautiful but since we arrived early for our reservation we decided to eat at one of the sitting areas near the bar rather than wait for a table. It was great! Unique cocktails, good food & excellent service make for a fine evening. A little out of the way (about 30 miles from NYC) but well worth the trip. Looking forward to our next visit."
Dined on 3/8/2014
We hadn't been to the Harvest for
a few months and had forgotten how great the food is! This is a big restaurant so noise level is high but eating at 8:30 pm once it's time for coffee & desert it's half empty and much quieter. We noticed 2 large dinner parties of 15-20 people which didn't interfere with the service or standards of the restaurant. This is a great restaurant for large parties or parties of 2. We had pasta dishes that were excellent as were the appetizers. We've never had a meal here we didn't enjoy! Only CON would be the service, we waited a long time for our bill & had to flag down the waiter to get it. Because it was late they were focused on resetting tables rather than taking care of their existing customers."

Harvest is the perfect place for a
special and memorable celebration."
Dined on 3/8/2014
I don't know why I am don't come
here more often for dinner. The food is consistently wonderful and the ambiance transports you to a Napa-like feel without the plane ride but with all of the panache."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Disappointing as soon as you drive
up. Two guys standing outside telling you where you can and cannot park. Why not just provide valet service. Waiters were OK, but nobody spoke English.. Very hard to hear about specials of the day. Food was good, not great, and I found it to be very over priced. About 100 bucks a head with one bottle of wine. I might go back one day but only for a special occasion. I will NOT goout of my way for this place though. Too many other better restaurants in NY.."
Dined on 3/8/2014
This was not our first time at
this restaurant, but certainly the first time we were there where there was no Grey Goose and where one of their specialty drinks that was on the menu, was not available. That being said, I still give the restaurant a four star overall rating because the service, food and atmosphere are always the best. All the appetizers were cooked to perfection - I recommend the dates wrapped in bacon - they are superb! We ordered two salads for the table that all five of us would share and they were more than happy to accommodate us and the specials and pastas were delicious, cooked exactly as described and tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant to all as their menu is very diverse and there is something for all!"
Dined on 3/6/2014
I went here with two very good
friends for a nice girls night out. The view of the Hudson River was gorgeous. The servers were very nice, but they also got a bit mixed up at one point with one server taking one portion of our order and another one coming and asking about he same thing. I had their homemade pasta in bolognese sauce (sorry - didn't spell that right, but you get the picture). Their wine selections were varied and interesting, and dessert was fabulous. I would definitely go back again and would recommend it to friends."
Dined on 9/7/2013
What a great dinner! Went for my
husband and his twin brother's 50th Bday and had a great dinner! The restaurant was so inviting with an attractive different feel. It was nice and open, very classy but yet comfortable furniture and decor, the service was great, and the menu offered such a variety, and all was spectacular. I can't wait to come back!"
Dined on 2/28/2014
We have been invited here and
hosted here. Service is always lacking. We have to ask for the waiter, and look for him throughout the meal. When you finally get your drinks, the waiter will never return to ask if you would like another. The food is O.K., not great, especially for the pricing. Needs new selections. Not running back here. It's been declining over time."
Dined on 3/5/2013
What a great place to go to. This
time sat at the bar and met a new friend. Talking and laughing, Just a great time. Then off to dinner at a nice corner table. Food was fantastic. Service great. Could not ask for a better time. I only wish I lived closer."
Dined on 2/23/2014
Overall, warm place and delish.
This is a very pretty restaurant with an upbeat energy and overall the food was really very good. The pasta was a teensy bit overcooked but everything else was very tasty. The service was acceptable though the waiter seemed a bit dorky, mispronouncing a few key words. One of the best river restaurants around, and tough to find this great mix of fun and food and a pretty atmosphere in these parts."
Dined on 2/22/2014
Wow !! What a wonderful
experience, worth the trip and a hotel stay."
Dined on 2/20/2014
I have no complaints with the
food. The food is delicious! My only gripe is the service. We weren't in a rush so it didn't really matter to us, but it was very very VERY slow! I feel like our waiter should have checked in with us more than he did. We always had to flag him down if we needed a refill on our drinks. By the time we paid our bill and was ready to leave it was after 10:00pm. Definitely a 3 hour dinner! I am hoping the next time I come, they fix the slow service!"
Dined on 2/21/2014
Harvest is always a great choice!
Food, service, and ambience is always top notch. The outdoor seating in the nice weather is terrific."
Dined on 2/21/2014
This restaurant was recommended to
us by friends who happened upon it last year while on a weekend trip. So when we booked tickets for a comedy show in Tarrytown, we decided to try it. It was an absolute pleasure to experience a lovely restaurant with great service and a very enjoyable atmosphere. The wait staff was excellent--attentive, but not annoyingly so, as we have experienced in many other places. The food was wonderful. They have some very imaginative combinations. Out table was at the back wall of windows/doors, overlooking the Hudson River. We had an early dinner due to having to get to the show, so we were able to enjoy the view for a while. This was a great experience in every way. We will definitely return."
Dined on 2/21/2014
I was not really impressed with
the food. Oi ordered cod dish and husband had braised beef. Both were served in some type of a casserole dish. My cod was boring with white potatoes and his beef was so so. Pretty place though. Service was ok"
Dined on 2/20/2014
A wow when you enter but I would
not go past the bar if you're hoping for a great meal. Everything was over salted and not well prepared. The servers couldn't be more helpful and present but nothing made up for the poor food. Oysters too large, tilefish did not taste fresh, and eggplant was smothered in a thin red sauce that was salty and tasteless, the eggplant itself tasted like it was saturated in oil, which tells me that everything is prepared long in advance and sitting, waiting for the sauce to be added. I am amazed at the great write ups for this restaurant."
Dined on 2/21/2014

experience one of the best places in westchester"
Dined on 2/17/2014
I just reviewed this restaurant on
Tripadvisor , so I feel like I'm repeating myself. It is a gorgeous property and the service is always great....but...I feel the menu is lacking. The food is very expensive and seams a little one-sided - not enough choice for those of us that like "mainstream" plates. I don't want to really "complain" I know we can go elsewhere...but we do like this place."
Dined on 2/15/2014
We dined here for lunch on Monday.
Service was good initially but as more people arrived (all seated very close to one another in an empty room) the noise level grew and the service declined. My husband ordered the lentil soup which he enjoyed. The pear and goat cheese salad which was ok except for the stale croutons - with wonderful warm bread on the table they are unnecessary! Iced tea was served warm with ice cubes melted on top - easily fixed when we asked for more ice. The chicken paillard salad was tasty but had too little chicken. Quattro Fromagi Pizza was good once the oil pools were blotted off the top. The chocolate pecan dessert was too sweet - I was thinking brownie and it was basically rubbery pecans in choc. syrup"
Dined on 2/17/2014
Very nice touch for Valentine's
day. I especially appreciated the rose and the chocolate covered strawberries. A glass of champagne would have been nice too. I also would love if cappuccino came with the price fixe."
Dined on 2/14/2014
The food never disappoints, but
Harvest on Hudson is a frequent choice of ours as a convenient meeting point between Manhattan and Westchester. The riverside setting can't be beat for outdoor dining and view, but tabletop and brick fireplaces make the winter atmosphere warm and inviting."
Dined on 2/16/2014
You can always rely on their fair
wine pricing and ambiance. We went there during cold wintry evening and had an enjoyable candle-lit meal with a real fire burning in the fireplace. Service needs some work but you get what you pay for. Order octopus (very tender) with beans and nicoise olive tapenade and mushroom risotto with bacon and truffle oil. Pass on the sardines and skate (much stronger fish flavor than ones prepared without the cartilage)."
Dined on 2/16/2014

We had a wonderful Valentine's Day
dinner. The three course set menu had a number of good choices and was reasonably priced. The atmosphere was especially good and they added a few touches to make it a special occasion. We hadn't been there for a while, but will keep it in mind for the next occasion."

Two memeber of our party were
caught in NYC traffic jam. The hosteses were very accomodating and kept our reservation open while we waited for them. Obviously this could not happen during the summer when it is packed but we really appreciated it. Service at the bar was great. Food was great as always. Service at the table was a little less attentive then it could have been."

We had reservations for 8 people
last Saturday night at 7pm. We arrived earlier than our guests due to the snow, and went straight to the sofas by the bar area. As each of our friends arrived, they also sat at the sofa and we all had a leisurely coctail before dinner. We were never rushed and the staff did not once push us to hurry up our drinks so we could be seated (but mind you, it was a little slow probably bc of the weather). We finally sat down at about 7:45. We ordered both off menu and the specials, and we each tried other people's dishes. I can vouch that it was ALL excellent. The Mahi Mahi was so tender and moist. The rabbit was succulent and melted in your mouth. Everything was delicious. No complaints at all. Highly recommend."
Dined on 1/25/2014
Been there many times. This was
the first time where I was thoroughly underwhelmed/disappointed. Four of us, four different appetizers (salads=ok,, soup=meh, octopus=terrific. Entrees were all overly salty, fish had too many bones (not whole fish, this was tilefish filet), steak was bland. Pinot Noir (glass) was more like a Chianti and waitress said , "Yes, I hear that a lot." but did not offer to swap it out for something drinkable. Hostess/Greeters seem like sorority sisters; happy to talk to each other but not to guests. Still, it is a very pretty place. Noise level is moderate (unless you're seated near a large group.) Get the hostesses attention and ask to be re-seated if you're looking for quiet/romantic evening."
Dined on 1/25/2014
My husband and I had been to HOH a
few years ago and loved it. We remember the food being so good that we looked forward to going back again. Finally, an occasion came up and we booked a Saturday night with family from out of town. The atmosphere is very lovely and warm. The service both for drinks and dinner was good. The food, however, was just OK. We ordered for appetizers the shrimp, bacala fritters and fried calamari. They were ordinary. Our entrees included mahi mahi, venison, eggplant parmigiana and steak. Only the steak seemed to get a better than average comment. Given the cost of dinner, I would only go back to HOH if I were to hear from friends that our experience was unusual and the exception to the overall consensus."

We used to consider this our
special treat for important occasions. We'll be looking for a new place after our last visit. Other than the stunning view, Harvest lacks one main ingredient. Personality. The waitstaff and hostess were dull and unfriendly. And our meal based on the waiters recommendation was tasteless. It was surprising to see this undersized entree provide less interest than a bowl of cornflakes. We're not complainers and are easy to please so I won't bother mentioning the slow, robotic service. However, when you pay premium prices you really should expect more. Disappointing is something we rarely say coming out of any decent restaurant. If you significantly lower your expectations you won't be disappointed here."

Everything was greater than I
expected but a cup of coffee after lunch would be added to rate of lunch prix fix menu, lol"
Dined on 1/17/2014
I've been to Harvest more times
than I can count. The views are great but in the winter much of the ambiance is lost. However, we dined next to the fire place, which was nice. Food was very food, service equally. I will be back at some point, it's one of my go-to spots."

Even that won't necessarily generate a dramatic new upsurge in launch demand for SpaceX and United Launch Alliance, the companies supplying it. But it can start moving the government out of the equation, Gerstenmaier says, as more customers appear with station-bound payloads and—eventually—passengers to conduct research there.
"At some point there may be enough of a commercial market generated independent of NASA," Gerstenmaier says. Beyond the ISS end-of-life in 2028, microgravity research probably will be conducted on a commercial orbital facility, he says. His directorate already has an agreement with Bigelow Aerospace to install a small inflatable structure on the station to support that company's plans to build stand-alone inflatable research facilities in orbit.
SpaceX also has plans to use Dragon as the basis for commercial "Dragonlabs," and there are other private proposals as well. "Our job is to use [the ISS] to essentially provide the proof that that market is there," Gerstenmaier says.
Cost-conscious lawmakers are resisting NASA on funding multiple vehicle developments, while agency managers say it is in the government's interest to stimulate competition now because it will hold down costs later.
"We think it's good for everybody, the private sector and the government," says Phil MacAlister, director of NASA's commercial spaceflight development effort. "And not just in terms of cost. It's also good in terms of safety. We see these companies all trying to outdo each other in terms of safety and performance."
SpaceX posted a $54 million "paid-in-full standard launch price" for the Falcon 9 in 2012, and carries 24 flights of the new rocket on its manifest through 2017, not counting the ISS missions with Dragon. So far, most of its revenue has come from NASA for the Dragon flights, and it remains to be seen what will happen to the overall cost of launch-to-orbit on traditional one-flight rockets as the competition does (or does not) develop.
Former NASA Administrator Michael Griffin, who holds an MBA as well as multiple engineering degrees, calculated for a 2011 International Astronautical Congress paper that "existing market incentives are insufficient to bring about human space development by private enterprise, even under very optimistic assumptions. The ISS logistics market is too small, no single competitor can expect to capture it all, the rate of return is low in relation to other investments having less risk, and in any case that market is temporary."
Griffin's analysis was based on a hypothetical human-rated traditional system able to deliver 9,000 kg to the ISS, developed at a cost of $700 million. Reusable launch vehicles could dramatically change the equation, in theory, and some of the new space entrepreneurs—SpaceX founder Elon Musk, Bezos at Blue Origin and Mark Sirangelo at Sierra Nevada—are working to build launch vehicles that are at least partially reusable without the huge turnaround costs NASA experienced with the space shuttle.
At least two commercial reusable spaceplanes are gearing up to begin suborbital flights with paying passengers in the next year or two. Ultimately the lessons they learn may play into reusable commercial flight to orbit, with all that implies in terms of market growth.

TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars
Austin Collie suffered a concussion this preseason, his 4th in the last 21 months, but it was a minor one and it looked like he would be back for week 1. He practiced before week 1, but was not cleared and the same thing happened week 2. It's very likely he just did not get clearance from a doctor. This week, he went through the same routine at the beginning of the week, but it looks like he's finally been cleared as the Colts have listed him as probable on their injury list.
It's unclear what his role is, but the uncertain makes both him and Donnie Avery poor fantasy options this week. It's worth noting that, before the injury, Collie was Andrew Luck's favorite target in the preseason and the last time he had a capable quarterback, he ranked 9th in the league in yards per route run in 2010, before getting hurt. He should be owned in all leagues and monitored because he could end up being startable in the future as the #2 option on a good passing attack.
Meanwhile, top pass rusher D...

Double Standards for US War Crimes
Guns But No Butter
Stuck in a Job at the End of the World
Very little sympathy is felt for Air Force personnel assigned to fire nuclear missiles that could end all life on the planet. But their grim, boring and existentially absurd job has eroded staff morale so much that their collapsing competence has added to the world's risk, explains John LaForge.
Reaping the Seeds of Nuke Tests
The warnings about fallout from nuclear tests six decades ago often noted that cancers from the radiation would probably not begin appearing in large numbers for many years. But that time is now – and medical experts are wondering whether the surge in some cancers is a result, writes John LaForge.
Nuke Sludge Leaking at Hanford
The U.S. rush to build a giant arsenal of nuclear weapons during the Cold War created an environmental disaster at Hanford in Washington State along the Columbia River. Clean-up costs are staggering and radioactive sludge threatens to contaminate the region's water supply, writes nuclear watchdog John LaForge.
Punishing Anti-Nuke Protesters
A twisted part of modern America is that harsh punishments are given to people who stand for truth and justice, while torturers and war criminals go free. That's the case for Bradley Manning who released secrets and anti-nuclear protesters who tied "crime scene" tape to a nuke site, as John LaForge says.
Muzzling an Anti-Nuke Trial Defense
Federal prosecutors, who are seeking long prison terms for three anti-nuclear-bomb activists as punishment for entering the government's Oak Ridge bomb-making complex, want all moral and legal questions about nuclear weapons excluded from the trial, reports John LaForge.
Boy Scouts Still Embrace Discrimination
The pledges of the Boy Scouts of America to follow the nation's laws and to befriend those who are different are increasingly at odds with the club's continued rejection of gays and people who don't believe in God, discriminatory policies that former Eagle Scout John LaForge protests.
Double Standards on Civilian Deaths
Whenever U.S. forces inflict massive civilian casualties, it's a "mistake" or the fault of the targets because they were "hiding" in populated areas. Yet, when civilian deaths occur in the country of a "designated enemy," all ambiguity is swept aside and no excuses are accepted, a double standard addressed by John LaForge.

A couple days later, I checked my order status. I noticed that they had shipped out different parts from the ones I had ordered. The parts they were sending are stated on their website as being specifically for versions 13 and up. It even says that on their website.
I emailed their customer service with my concerns, and someone named "Ryan L." assured me that the new parts would work in place of the parts I ordered, and that my parts had been replaced by the parts they were sending me.
"Ryan L." had this to say, exactly: " I did some research and found the source of confusion. The original 4-wire control module has been discontinued by the manufacturer, and the new 6-wire throttle kit and controller replaces the discontinued parts. It will still work, it just upgrading it essentially from a 4-wire to a 6. Thats why the link ordered as the 6 wire kit and gave that breakdown. Sorry for the confusion."
Of course, "Ryan L." was wrong. The parts they sent are not a replacement for the parts I ordered. The parts I ordered do have a newer version, but they did not ship me the newer version.
Besides, I ordered the parts I needed, that fit my Ground Force, and that were listed on their own website. If they didn't have those parts in stock, or could not get access to them, they should not have them listed on their website. They certainly shouldn't have substituted parts that are listed for a different version of my Ground Force, especially without confirming the substitution with me first.
I emailed back to customer service and specifically said this: "I still have a concern about the parts, especially the Controller, as your website listed different parts for versions 1-12 and for version 13+. It just seems odd that a part listed everywhere as only for version 13+ will work on a properly on a version 12. But I'll give the new parts a try when they get here, and see if they work --- you guys know more about this stuff than I do!"
Apparently, they do not know more about this stuff than I do, because the parts came in, and they do not hook up to my version of the Ground Force.
I contacted them for an RMA so I could return the incorrect parts that they sent to me. They actually told me that I would have to pay return shipping and a 10% restocking fee.
Yes. Because THEY made an error, they want me to pay to ship back the incompatible parts, and want me to pay a 10% fee on top of it.
I replied to them that it was their error, that they should provide me with a prepaid shipping label, and that there should be no restocking fee, because it was their error, not mine.
The unhelpful customer service person who replied to me, "Ed P.," actually had the nerve to say this: "THe [sic] parts you ordered, you ordered online with no assistance from a CSR so if the parts are wrong, unfortunately it's because you ordered the wrong parts."
Seriously, Ed P.? You shipped me different parts from what I ordered! You shipped me parts that aren't even a correct replacement for the parts I ordered!
From the day they packaged the wrong parts for shipping, I contacted them that they were not sending what I ordered, and made them aware of my concerns that the parts would not work.
Avoid this company at all costs. There are plenty of places to order repair parts. When they make an obvious mistake as sending me the wrong parts, and not only blame me, but make me pay for their mistake, well, that just isn't right.
I have all the emails and order status documentation to prove that this was their mistake, and they have no regard for the customer when they make an error. They will rip you off.
Now I have to pay to return the parts to this disreputable company and file a charge back with my credit card, all because they refuse to take responsibility for their own incompetence.

It's awful business practice to send a customer a part they didn't order, that will not work on the item they are ordering it for, and then to make the customer pay to ship that wrong part back to you.
Lesson learned. Never deal with a company whose terms and conditions do not state that they will pay for return shipping when THEY make a mistake.

All school meals (breakfast and lunch) include a choice of entrée, milk, and fresh fruit and vegetable bar.
Paying/Prepaying for School Meals
Student balances follow the student from school-to-school within the district and remain on the student account from one year to the next.
You are welcome, and encouraged, to prepay your child's meals. To help assure that each child eats lunch, we may allow a child to "charge" up to two meals (the parent/guardian is responsible to pay for any meals served to their student), but students who have a negative balance in their meal account will not be permitted to charge meals until their account is paid and current. (An emergency lunch of a sandwich and milk is available to students who do not have money in their account.)
Upon request, the balance of your student's account can be refunded. Refunds take approximately three weeks to process and the refund check is mailed to the parent/guardian. To request a refund, call the Child Nutrition Services office at 253-931-4972.
Internet/Online Payment Option
PayOnline Instructions (by clicking on the link, you are leaving the Auburn School District website):
* This convenient, safe, and secure option is available to you through MealTime Online. You have the option of paying for meals using a Discover, VISA, or MasterCard credit or debit card. Your account will be set up through MealTime Online (not the Child Nutrition Department of the Auburn SchoolDistrict); a minimum deposit of $25 is required and each transaction is charged a processing fee (the fee will be displayed prior to payment being made).
Our Mission: In a safe environment, all students will achieve high standards of learning in order to become ethically responsible decision makers and lifelong learners.

Woman plummets to death in Southie - 0 Comments
BOSTON — A woman in her early 20s plummeted to her death last night, falling down a shaft on the roof of a Summer Street building, city fire and police officials said.
The woman fell from a seven-story-high roof to the third floor of the South Boston building through a blind shaft without access from the building interior, said Acting Deputy Fire Chief Ronald Marston.
It took more than an hour to locate the woman after emergency personnel got the call about 8:30 p.m., said Marston.

CONCORD, NC – Next week, more than 220 motorsports journalists, including 41NBC.com's Terry Miller, will gather for the most prestigious preseason media event in sports, the 31st annual NASCAR Sprint Media Tour hosted by Charlotte Motor Speedway. Running Jan. 21-24, the tour offers credentialed journalists four full days of unrivaled access to announcements from NASCAR's biggest teams.
"This four-day event provides more than 100 media outlets with newsworthy content to get fans revved-up for the upcoming season," said Marcus Smith, president and general manager of Charlotte Motor Speedway. "It takes a lot of cooperation and support from Sprint, the race teams and NASCAR to make it possible, and I'm just as excited as our fans to hear what the drivers and owners have to say about 2013."

Brazen robbers stole from Riverton woman's garage while she was outside may have been identified
RIVERTON — A pair of alleged burglars, who police say walked into a woman's garage and stole her credit cards while she was outside mowing her lawn, may have been identified.
Unified police say they are looking for 35-year-old Jason Kettler and 31-year-old Chauntae Petersen.
On June 24, police say a man pulled into a Riverton driveway, stole golf clubs and several other items out of the homeowner's garage, smashed a window of the woman's car and stole her credit cards. The man and a female accomplice are then believed to have used the credit cards at least eight times at various business around the valley, said Unified Police Lt. Justin Hoyal.
Investigators released several surveillance video pictures Monday from the home and stores where the credit cards were used, Hoyal said, which resulted in a number of tips from the public that identified Kettler and Petersen.
The pair were last seen driving a red, four-door, 1999-2001 Subaru Impreza with a sunroof, spoiler and vents in the hood.
Kettler, who has a lengthy criminal history, according to Utah State Court records, was charged June 12 in a theft incident and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Anyone with information can call police at 385-468-9391.

Don't Miss Out: Top 4 Yielding Hold-Rated Stocks: QCCO, EDUC, DSWL, VOC
Editor's Note: Any reference to TheStreet Ratings and its underlying recommendation does not reflect the opinion of TheStreet, Inc. or any of its contributors including Jim Cramer or Stephanie Link.TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our Buy, Hold or Sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates.
While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 4 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Hold."
QC Holdings
Dividend Yield: 7.90%QC Holdings (NASDAQ:QCCO) shares currently have a dividend yield of 7.90%. QC Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries provide various retail consumer financial products and services in the United States. The company offers payday loans, which provide cash to the customers in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity of two to three weeks. The company has a P/E ratio of 3.58.The average volume for QC Holdings has been 10,900 shares per day over the past 30 days. QC Holdings has a market cap of $44.2 million and is part of the banking industry. Shares are down 22.5% year to date as of the close of trading on Tuesday.TheStreet Ratings rates QC Holdings as a hold. Among the primary strengths of the company is its solid financial position based on a variety of debt and liquidity measures that we have evaluated. At the same time, however, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself, feeble growth in the company's earnings per share and deteriorating net income.Highlights from the ratings report include:- QCCO's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.28 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. To add to this, QCCO has a quick ratio of 2.13, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- QCCO, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 3.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 3.5%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. In comparison to the other companies in the Consumer Finance industry and the overall market, QC HOLDINGS INC's return on equity is significantly below that of the industry average and is below that of the S&P 500.
- QC HOLDINGS INC has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. The company has suffered a declining pattern earnings per share over the past two years. During the past fiscal year, QC HOLDINGS INC reported lower earnings of $0.43 versus $0.66 in the prior year.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Consumer Finance industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 80.3% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $1.73 million to $0.34 million.

Happy Birthday to Fredric March (August 31, 1897 — April 14, 1975)
At the dawn of sound, Hollywood was inundated with East Coast stage actors who were carried west on the strength of their vowels. These were men of illusion, men whose tongues and teeth neither gnashed nor squabbled, men who wrapped their creative egos in cigarette ads and stark white ties, men who would disembowel themselves on Bernhardt's grave before honking out the broad Bronx squawks of their youth—men consumed by the artifice of their profession and inflamed the inferiority of the screen. Fredric March, in my estimation, was the only one who emerged from the Vitaphone fury of 1929 with his dignity intact and the foundation of his legend laid.
He was a movie star built for the churning of the Thirties. He was trim, wicked, well-read, slick and beautiful and strong. He retained the deathless enthusiasm of the callow Midwestern college boy, circumspect in dress and self-consciously caddish in speech, who, having edged around the flu and the Front, plays at erudition with the bright boyish valor of a Sunday school savior. Art was gravely serious, as was love, and politics, and living, and—this Wisconsin upstart conveyed that devotion with a smile that, should we exhume them today, we would still find carved where the hearts of widows and shopgirls and ministers' wives once were. In a time of upheaval and shelved ambitions, women—for it was always the women—offered loving bouquets in the pages of Photoplay, strained to catch him in candid footage, hovered over the curious elegant "F" scrawled on the autographed portraits sent courtesy Paramount Studios, far-off, mystical, vividly dreamed Hollywood, California. Why? He was honest. He was forthright. He was in on the joke. There was no one like him, they asserted, because, in the vernacular of the fan magazines, they saw the fog lights of the Hudson and the porch lights of Racine and the accessible intangible magic midnight livewire of the downtown movie marquee gleaming in his eyes—his, and his alone.
Fredric March has been forgotten. In the grand narrative of the movies, of the American screen tradition which he helped forge, he is regarded as little more than a footnote in the champagne days of Depression Hollywood. He lacks the iconic masculinity that shields the legacies of men who were once less renowned than he. It was not until twelve years after his death that the Academy paid tribute to a man whose talent and tenacity enriched the art of film acting for over four decades. When he first appeared, critics hailed him as the brightest of his generation, but by the nothing-but-now Seventies, he was about as chic as a ragged mink stole he might have draped around Norma Shearer's shoulders at the Trocadero forty years before.
His work is hard to come by. The copyrights have been scattered and his leading ladies are reduced to crossed-out headshots in the production annals of our collective memory. Two thirds of his films have not been made available for home viewing since the heyday of the Laserdisc, and many of them—including the early pictures that made him a star—may never leave the studio vaults. He has no champions, no protectors, amongst the guardians of film history. We do not have much to justify a continued examination of his impact on our culture. But with what we do have, we can reconstruct in our imagination the creative arc of one of the most brilliant craftsmen to ever pose—as I like to think he did—beneath the baking lights of a patched-together sound stage, smoke whirling above him, illuminated in profile, stoic, sophisticated, sacred, only to snap out of the scene with a sudden grin and shout—"Oh, God damn it, I dropped the pipe! Do we have the shot? Or must we do it again?"
