Faced with ultralow interest rates, cautious savers have bought consumer staples stocks for their relative safety and income, but the group now looks "overstretched" and "vulnerable to a significant correction," wrote Tom Graves, an analyst with S&P Capital IQ, in a research note this past week.
One reason investors love these stocks is that if the economy slips back into a slump, shoppers will still presumably buy their Cheerios, Campbell's chicken noodle and Tide detergent.

The income advantage food stocks have long enjoyed over the broad market has narrowed, notes Graves. Dividend yields shrink as share prices rise. The average food stock now yields 2.3%. Among S&P 500 companies that pay dividends, which make up more than four-fifths of the index, the average is the same, 2.3%. There's also the matter of dividend growth potential. The median food company paid out half its earnings over the past year as dividends, versus one-third for all S&P 500 dividend-payers. Dividend payments have been surging, but in coming years, companies that currently pay out less of their earnings as dividends may have the most room for increases.
It's not all bad for food. This year's corn crop looks likely to be much larger than last year's, which should keep ingredient costs in line, and projections for food companies to increase their earnings by 7% this year look achievable, says Credit Suisse's Moskow. But investors seeking safe harbors should scrap the notion that some industries are inherently safe regardless of price. Price is a key predictor of future performance, which makes it a key measure of safety. The food business remains stable, but its extreme popularity has made it, if not unsafe for investment, less safe.
CONSIDER SOME ALTERNATIVES. The five companies below turned up on a screen for stable earnings, modest valuations, healthy dividend yields, recent dividend growth and plenty of room for more payment increases.
Boeing has long attracted negative attention for delays in bringing its new Dreamliner to market, followed by battery malfunctions that grounded the planes. But jumbo jets aren't smartphones; new models sell for decades and mechanical glitches in early runs are common. The Dreamliner's fuel efficiency and passenger comfort continue to bode well for sales, and while the stock has risen of late as investors come around to that view, it's still cheap. That's because the Dreamliner, which is burning free cash now, will begin adding to it next year. Free cash flow will double to around $12 a share by 2015, says Wells Fargo Securities. That's 14% of the current stock price, which makes Boeing's dividend, at 2.2%, look likely to take flight.
Travelers takes a conservative approach to managing its investment portfolio and balance sheet, which helped it avoid steep losses during the Great Recession. It's reputation for stability has also allowed it to charge premium prices for its insurance. One downside for insurers in general is that, as ordinary investors know well, putting cash reserves to work at safe, reasonable interest rates has rarely been more difficult than now. On the other hand, a lack of ability to rely on portfolio winnings to boost earnings has made insurers more finicky about keeping basic insurance underwriting profitable. Margins are on the rise. Travelers goes for 12 times earnings and yields 2.1%.
L-3 Communications isn't immune to the steep, pending budget cuts known as the sequestration. Management says they could trim 65 cents a share from earnings, or around 8%. But the company has been active in pruning its diverse portfolio of defense programs of ones that are most vulnerable to cuts, according to Deutsche Bank analyst Myles Walton. He points out that L-3 has the best free cash yield among its peers, 13%, and that it combines a 2.6% dividend yield with a stock repurchase program that can reduce the share count by 7% a year. For investors, that's like owning the target of a slow-moving takeover.
House prices are rebounding and housing starts are up. Both signs bode well for toolmaker Stanley Black & Decker, but according to Morgan Stanley, an even better predictor of Stanley's sales success is the pace at which construction payrolls are rising. Construction has been one of the strongest contributors to job growth in recent months. Accordingly, Wall Street expects revenue for Stanley to rise 9% this year. Shares go for 15 times earnings and yield 2.5%.
Occidental Petroleum has underperformed this year amid a squabble over leadership, detailed extensively last week ("What Occidental Petroleum is Really Worth," April 8, 2013). The board, led by a former chief executive, said in February it's looking for a replacement for Stephen Chazen, who is only the company's third chief exec in a half-century, but has been on the job less than two years. Analysts found the timing of the announcement odd. Chazen, 66, was expected to step down anyway within a few years. He has cut costs but also presided over an unremarkable run for the stock. Despite the drama, shares look cheap at 11 times earnings and a 3% dividend yield. Oxy's stability is enhanced by its limited use of leverage and its predictable business of scooping up older oil deposits and using advanced drilling technology to exploit them.

Malan blames four-day form on Middlesex's T20 misery
7:58am Friday 20th June 2014 in Sport By Stuart Amos
Teddington's Dawid Malan has blamed the new county cricket structure for Middlesex's poor T20 Blast form.
The 26-year-old opener got a first ball duck, but saw his side collect their first win of the competition with an eight-wicket triumph over Somerset at the Kia Oval on Wednesday night.
The domestic fixture list was altered this season to see four day games start at weekends, allowing T20 matches to be spread throughout the campaign – rather than in a specific window.
Middlesex are riding high in the LV= County Championship Division One table – despite a surprise six wicket defeat to Nottinghamshire earlier in the week – and Malan has admitted that has been the side's focus.
"The new structure means you do not get a lot of time to practise your white ball cricket," he said.
"We finished at Nottinghamshire game on Tuesday and were playing T20 on Wednesday night and then again on Friday.
"Because we are doing so well in the Championship we are obviously concentrating on that, which means no time to practise limited overs cricket.
"It also means I've had no time to fit in the odd game for Teddington, which is not ideal."
Twickenham CC's Gurjit Sandhu claimed 1-34 in Wednesday's T20 win and he could be on show when Middlesex take on Glamorgan at Richmond's Old Deer Park ground on July 3 (5.30pm).
"Because we have not done so well, we will probably be looking to give the younger players a go," he added.
"Gurjit is clearly a player they are keen to develop because he is a left arm seamer and they are uncommon."

WEST ST. PAUL, Minnesota — Police say investigators have found the car sought in the shooting death of a police officer in Minnesota.
St. Paul police announced the finding in a tweet late Wednesday afternoon. The message did not say where the car was found.
Police say Mendota Heights officer Scott Patrick was shot about 12:20 p.m. after pulling over a car just past the city border in West St. Paul in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. He died later at Regions Hospital.
Patrick, a 19-year veteran, is the first police officer slain in the line of duty in Mendota Heights, a St. Paul suburb of about 11,000.
Police are looking for a suspect, 39-year-old Brian Fitch Sr.

"I never do this," David Horowitz, a public relations executive for ABC, said as he picked up British actor Roger Moore at Kennedy Airport. "Can I have your autograph for my son?"
It was 1986, and Moore was in New York City to do some publicity for the network. A year earlier, he had starred, at age 58, in "A View to a Kill." It was his last James Bond film but also the first that Horowitz's son saw in the theaters. In that movie, Moore's 007 takes on Christopher Walken, an evil genius/rogue KGB operative/Nazi-experiment-gone-awry who flies around in a blimp, out of which he sometimes drops people. Moore, alternating between black and white tuxedos, Paris and San Francisco, does recon at a horse track, skis, and has a chiaroscuro sex scene with Grace Jones before saving Silicon Valley and ending up safely in a shower with yet another woman. All of this capped by a theme song performed by Duran Duran.
That combination made a profound impression on Horowitz's 8-year-old son, for whom the notion of a secret agent man who never overly exerted himself proved just as healthy a role model as an all-star first baseman who smoked in the dugout. So when Horowitz returned home to Queens after a day of shepherding Moore around the city, it caused a stir when he produced from his weather-beaten briefcase a signed promotional headshot of Moore, himself looking rather weather-beaten, with crow's feet around his eyes, a rogue's smile on his mouth, an unbuttoned white collar on his neck and rugged furrows in his Hollywood-tanned brow. The picture was quickly framed and hung above the light switch in young Horowitz's room. For years to come, a flicking on of the light revealed a scrawl on the glossy's upper right-hand corner that read, "To Jason, With my best wishes, Roger Moore."

Our Amazing & Creative Alumni: Camille Keedy Malmquist '96
Pastry chef
By Nadine Fiedler
From the Summer 2011 Caller
When most people think of creative arts, they often overlook the culinary arts. It is a realm of unlimited imaginative (and edible!) possibilities. Camille Keedy Malmquist '96 works in one of the most demanding of the culinary arts, pastry-making—and she does that in Paris, where the best pastries in the world are made, in one of the best pâtisseries in that city.
Camille first moved to France to teach English after college, but what she loved best was cooking and baking. Back in the States, she pursued training in culinary school in California, and worked in restaurants and bakeries in Dallas. She and her husband then moved to Paris, with no jobs in hand. Every bake shop wanted experience in France, but finally the family-owned Pâtisserie Couderc took a chance on Camille. There she's honed her pastry-making skills, and now she's learning the art of chocolate.
"The recipes in the traditional French pastry shop where I work are based on classic techniques, practiced over and over. I have developed some new flavors for the chocolates, but mostly my creative outlet is cooking at home and writing my blog," says Camille. "Creativity is very important in the pastry arts, though. Once you understand how the ingredients work and how they work together, you can start creating your own desserts with the flavors and textures you're after."
Camille doesn't plan to live in Paris forever, and she's contemplating opening an ice-cream or chocolate shop when she returns to the U.S. But for now, Camille enjoys the daily work in her corner of Paris, making food that makes people happy: "It feels good to produce something tangible with my hands every day. I love starting the day with crates of eggs and cream and flour and sugar, and finishing it with enough cake to serve hundreds of people. People serve desserts to mark important events, and it's nice to feel that in some way, I'm part of the celebration."
"My Catlin Gabel teachers Josée Overlie and Marie Letendre instilled in me a lifelong love of France and the French language. I went on to major in French literature in college, and my French language skills were a big part of the reason my husband and I decided to move to Paris."

We are pleased to introduce you to 'Bellport Landing', a gracious 1880's home situated on Main Street in the heart of Bellport Village. Our home has been welcoming families and friends to Bellport Village for twenty years as the former 'Great South Bay Inn'.
Now, under new ownership, we are offering you the same wonderful home to those who are looking to independently host a family reunion, accommodate a wedding party, hold a baby shower, or simply to escape the city and enjoy the many wonderful amenities that Bellport Village has to offer. Rent it for the day, the week, or the month. We are committed to making your stay as comfortable as we possibly can.
'Bellport Landing' offers the beauty and charm that you would expect to find in an antique/historic home. It features wood floors throughout, two wood burning fireplaces, detailed molding and double hung windows. The first floor includes a spacious living room and dining room, kitchen, sunroom and three of the six bedrooms. A split staircase off the living room leads to a hallway connecting the other three bedrooms. Having been an 'Inn', the layout of the home affords guests the opportunity to socialize together in the common/public areas but then retreat to their respective private bedroom/bath area.
There are six bedrooms in all, each with their own unique character and charm! Each of the three 'master' bedrooms feature a king/queen bed, flat screen TV, and en-suite bathroom. One of the masters has a working fireplace, the other has an alcove with a pull-out sofa bed.
The kitchen is clean and efficient and fully equipped for the serious chef! It features a commercial Viking six burner stove with griddle and double ovens below, a Subzero refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave.
Dining Room:
The dining room is located in the home's center and is a wonderful space to share a meal together or gather around the bar for cocktails and conversation. The round table can be expanded to seat up to 8 people. French doors open off the dining room to allow access to the sunroom for additional seating.
Living Room:
The living room affords plenty of comfortable sitting areas, whether it be to cozy up the the fireplace, watch TV, play a tune on the piano or catch up on your email (of course, WiFi), you'll find a spot to suit your needs. A second set of french doors also allow access to the sunroom.
Outside Space:
located off the sunroom is a deck which leads to a large brick patio with a pergola. There is plenty of outdoor seating for enjoying a meal or just catching the great westerly sun.
Please note that, like many other older Bellport homes, ours has a cottage located in the back of the property, which we rent out to our tenant, Steve. Steve quietly comes and goes and we ask that you please be respectful of his space and he will not interfere at all with yours.
Once you've gotten comfortable here at home, it's time to venture out and explore Bellport Village. Leave your car in the driveway because you won't need to travel very far!! In less than a five minute walk, you can choose to eat in any one of Bellport's five restaurants or, better yet, pick up dinner at the local market and a bottle of L.I. wine and cook up a feast. How about taking a stroll down historic Bellport Lane. Bellport Lane is lined with beautiful old homes with white picket fences. The Lane will lead you to the marina and yacht club that directly overlooks the Great South Bay. From this spot, Bellport's private ferry delivers residents and their guests to a gorgeous stretch of clean, uncrowded ocean beach. Yes, this is Fire Island National Seashore! You just got here without getting in a car!

The 2012 Outback Bowl should have its name changed to the Bounceback Bowl.
The Georgia Bulldogs and Michigan State Spartans, two teams that fell short in their respective conference championship games, will look to end the season on a high note at the other's expense Monday.
Georgia won 10 straight games overall and seven straight SEC games before running into a buzzsaw in a 42-10 loss to No. 1 LSU in the SEC Championship. Meanwhile, Michigan State was the victim on conference realignment. Because of the addition of Nebraska into the Big Ten, the Spartans had to play in the conference's first championship game instead of automatically qualifying for the Rose Bowl. Michigan State lost the title game to Wisconsin 42-39 and the chance to smell the roses.
Time: January 2, 2012 at 1 p.m. ET
Location: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Florida.
TV Schedule: ABC
Odds: Michigan State is favored by 3

Jam Rostron, Bolton-born, Berlin-based is welcomed to the Domino Publishing family.

History of sustainability at Henkel
Henkel's sustainability strategy has continuously evolved. Since Fritz Henkel started his detergent business in 1876, the company's vision was to make people's lives easier, better and more beautiful. From the very beginning, Henkel has taken responsibility for its employees, neighbors and the community. In 1912, a first-aid center was set up at the plant and a full-time nurse was hired. Since 1927, Henkel continuously improved its occupational safety through systematic accident prevention. The introduction in 1959 of regular ecological quality checks for detergents and household cleaners was one of the first steps to make sure that products and production had no harmful effect on the environment. In 1991, Henkel was one of the first companies to sign the Business Charter for Sustainable Development of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). Today, worldwide management systems for safety, health, environment are in place, and the concept of sustainability is firmly anchored in Henkel's corporate policy.
Fritz Henkel founded Henkel & Cie in Aachen; workforce: 3 employees; manufacture of the first product named "Universal Laundry Detergent" based on waterglass.
Persil was developed as the first self-acting laundry detergent. It relieved housewives of the laborious rubbing by hand and the attendant wear and tear on the fabric.
Henkel became the first company in the chemical industry in Germany to employ a safety engineer, who was responsible for planned accident prevention. Alongside his safety tasks, he sought to improve conditions of work.
Launch of the solvent-free Pritt glue stick and Persil 70. The enzyme-containing Persil 70 was given the claim "biologically active."

CATEGORIES MoviesWhile "Hunger Games" still reigns supreme at the box office, "Catching Fire" is already heating up.
A few weeks ago, "Hunger Games" director Gary Ross shocked the world when he officially bowed out from directing the blockbuster's sequel, "Catching Fire." But now, according to the Hollywood Reporter, the odds are in Francis Lawrence's favor.
Lionsgate has been scrambling to fill the captain's seat of its hit-to-be; the selection had been narrowed to Lawrence (whose films include "I Am Legend" and "Water for Elephants"), and Bennett Miller ("Moneyball"). According to insiders, both directors met with Lionsgate Thursday and the studio is said to favor Lawrence.
The other directors who were considered include Tomas Alfredson ("Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy"), Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu ("Babel"), Cary Fukunaga ("Jane Eyre") and Duncan Jones ("Source Code").
Looks like it's reaping day for "Hunger Games" directors! (Really trying to get the most mileage out of these terms.)
"Catching Fire" will hit theaters November 22, 2013.

Diesel fuel filters
I have an IH 454 with a 3cyl diesel. I've never owned a diesel before and would like to change the 2 fuel filters. They are screw on canister types. My question is how do I get the air out of the system once I screw the new ones on? Or do I even have to remove the air from the filters?
Paul Allard
Re: Diesel fuel filters
Howdy VT
I do not know the 454. But every diesel I have you put the filter in the canister and fill it as full as possible with fuel before putting it on. On most tractors there is a mechanical fuel pump that will have a arm or lever on it. And typically you would crack a line and pump the arm on the fuel pump until you get all the air out of it. On Cat diesels their is a plunger pump to pump it with.

Re: Diesel fuel filters
One more thing. On Cat dozers the tank is mounted high like a tractor and you have to shut off a valve near the tank or fuel will pour out of it while you are changing the filter. You may have to do the same on that tractor.

Re: Diesel fuel filters
Thanks Cowboy, guess I better get a maintenance/owners manual before I start this process. I've been avoiding diesels to long, time to learn a little about them. I just love the added power, especially when digging rocks out of the driveway or lawn. I'm going to leave it inside and plugged in the evenings prior to snowfall. The main reason I got it was to plow snow.

Re: Diesel fuel filters
UInfortunately I do not have an IH 454 Owner's/Service/Parts manual available. The closest I have is the B-275 which is a diesel as well. I doubt if it is similar to the 454 though..... although the basics may be of help. The whole set is there.
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: Diesel fuel filters
Not pos about 454, but all my IH diesels have bleeder screws on top of the filter castings!----IH diesels are a bear to get going once the system has been opened, so prepare yourself for some royal cussing while you are working on them!
Moose usually takes me 2 sets of filters before I can get him started after filter change, or run out of fuel! thanks; sonny
Re: Diesel fuel filters
Thanks guys, I have found the bleeder screws. I have a manual but I guess I was just getting lazy about reading it. I most cases people who write manuals assume too much to the first time reader. I have sever electronics manuals that neglect to tell you how to turn the damn thing on. My manual states that the main cause of dirt in the fuel system in caused by owners changing fuel filters. I was also attempting to top off the hydraulic/transmission fluid. Lots of info there about capacities and types but not a clue where the filler plug is located.
The problem is probably because this is an original owners manual from IH.
Paul Allard
Re: Diesel fuel filters
Clean around the filter areas really good,---Air hose and good blow gun will get most dirt and dust off, then look at the gasket surfaces, and wipe them carefully !
the parts look-up on Messicks IH parts might show where the filler plugs and full level plugs are!
They have exploaded views on there, and IE works best to navigate there site!---I have FF, and it dont do well over there! thanks; sonny
Re: Diesel fuel filters
I put a second filter on my Perkins diesel. Plumbed it so I could switch between the filters with two three way brass valves. Never had to worry about air in the system and could switch filters with the engine running.

Get ready to saddle up for the PRCA Championship Rodeo.
Bull-riders are ready to take this year to the Extreme.
Steph Scheurer tells us what it takes to be a professional in this sport.
"To ride bulls, you gotta know you want to ride bulls," says Shane Gunderson, Stock Contracting Business.
Shane Gunderson was a bull-rider for 12 years.
And he's not full of bull when he says it's not if you're going to get hurt riding them, it's when.
"I broke my arm. Broke my sternum," says Gunderson.
Bumps and bruises aside, he says working with bulls is in his blood.
"It's a young man's sport but if I had to do it over again I'd have went twice as many," says Gunderson.
When Gunderson quit riding bulls, he started buying bulls - elite livestock that is a part of the PRCA Championship Rodeo here in Bismarck.
And buckaroos are ready to get buck wild in an extreme way.
"When you pit a 150 pound cowboy against a 2,000 pound bull that you don't know what he's going to do. I would call that extreme," says Wally Mosbrucker, Promoter.
Standup: "It's the Xtreme Bull-Riding tour. Fifty of the top bronco busters in the country will be taking famous bulls like Buck wild and Pandemic by the horns for what has been called the most dangerous 8 seconds in sports."
"When you're dealing with wild animals, you never know what's going to happen. There is no script, you know, you kind of have an idea of how things should go but it don't always work out that way but you're going to see some tremendous talent here, not only in the contestants but in the livestock," says Mosbrucker.
Talent that is sure to keep you at the edge of your seat.
"Expect the unexpected," says Mosbrucker.
The XTreme Bull-Riding Tour is tonight.
Friday and Saturday night will feature all seven of the standard rodeo events.
Tickets are 10 dollars for children and 20 dollars for adults.
The rodeo begins at 7:30pm each evening.

A 15-year-old Boy Scout was deemed a
hero and recognized as an honorary firefighter Tuesday night at the Nacogdoches
City Council Meeting.
"He saved a church and saving a
church is always a good thing," said Anthony Oliphant, Father.
Ketavian Oliphant was attending an
Eagle Scout ceremony at the North Street Church of Christ in March.
Oliphant said he heard a beeping noise
and smelled something burning from down the hall.
"I went in there and the whole kitchen
was filled with smoke," said Ketavian Oliphant.
Officials say a meal was being
prepared for after the meeting and left unattended when the fire started.
"I felt my way through the smoke
to the kitchen and I found the fire extinguisher and I sprayed it out,"
said Ketavian.
Church and fire officials say because
of Ketavian's quick and decisive action no damage was done to the kitchen and
guests were able to enjoy the reception after the ceremony as planned.
"When we find out about ordinary
citizens that aren't necessarily trained not necessarily equipped but are doing
something that goes about and beyond tonight we get a great opportunity to
recognize that," said Keith Kiplinger, Nacogdoches Fire Chief.
And his father says this moment of
heroism was preparation for his dream career.
"He said he wanted to be a
firefighter, so that's a good look right there if he wants to grow up and be a
firefighter," said Anthony Oliphant.
Ketavian has been Boy Scout for eight years
and fire officials say his choices are a perfect reflection of the
"The Boy Scout's motto is to be
prepared and in this instance Ketavian was prepared," said Kiplinger.
Officials from the North Street Church
of Christ also presented Ketavian with a proclamation of thanks.

Getting a higher education in Florida remains a good deal. The state's public universities have become more efficient in an era of scarce resources, and some — like the University of Florida and Florida State — consistently manage to rank among the best in the country and the most affordable.
Despite that, state universities are in a bind. They can't continue to deliver the quality education that Florida's parents and students rightly demand without getting more help. They're hobbled by a chronic lack of public investment, pressure to limit tuition, and competition from other states. All of this represents a challenge to the state's leaders and the Board of Governors as they initiate a nationwide search to replace departing Chancellor Frank Brogan.
The state has to step up or face an erosion in educational quality.
This year, the boards of all 12 state universities agreed to Gov. Rick Scott's request not to seek a tuition increase if the state restored $300 million in spending cuts and came up with millions more in additional funding. That's an improvement, but it hardly makes up for as much as $900 million in cutbacks since 2007.
Tuition increases during that period took up some of the slack, but it's not realistic to expect students and their families to continue to make up for underinvestment by the state.
University tuition remains a bargain in Florida, but the financial burden on students is nearing a ceiling. Less than a decade ago, tuition made up about 20 to 25 percent of the cost of a student's education. Now, it's closer to 50 percent, and more on some campuses.
Meanwhile, university students face daunting challenges as a result of changes in financing rules that could put a college degree out of reach for many. They are being squeezed especially hard.
First, Florida's Bright Futures scholarships have become tougher to get because the state increased the minimum ACT test score required to qualify — from 21 to 22. Next year, the cutoff score becomes 26.
This would strike Florida Atlantic University and Florida International University particularly hard. Their percentage of eligible freshmen would drop from 80 to 20 percent, according to a report prepared by the University of South Florida. At the same time, lifetime eligibility for federal Pell Grants is being reduced from 18 semesters to 12 and student loan interest rates are going up.
In sum: Not a pretty picture. The limitations on access to a university education, the pressure to keep tuition low, and the funding shortfalls represent a triple whammy for the universities.
Without more funding, there are fewer professors and classes, making it next to impossible for students to graduate in four years — a goal set by Gov. Scott and the Legislature. Without salary increases, the best faculty members become easy pickings for rival institutions in other states.
It is all well and good for Gov. Scott and lawmakers to push for new accountability standards and $10,000 bachelor degrees. But that does not address the most urgent needs of the university system, nor the critical issue of educational quality and its inextricable link to the state's economic growth.
The next chancellor must be ready to meet the challenges head-on, have a strong grasp of the problems facing higher education and possess the political finesse to deal with a tightfisted governor and legislators. They like to talk about improving the university system but so far they haven't been willing to make the needed investment.

GearSource has created a new Online project, LED Source, to deliver a range of LED products from leading manufacturers through its e-commerce Internet site.
Founder and president Marcel Fairbairn states, "LED's have obviously become a leading component of today's lighting market. Although we've never really been driven to establish a site for sales of new gear, the market for LED sales is so fragmented and confused right now. We saw an opportunity to step up and establish a sales entity online where we would could provide quality LED products to both dealers and end-users."
Dealers can apply with the company, and based on their special login profile, they will see pricing below that of an end-user. "It's really no different than any other dealership," adds Fairbairn. "We're looking for the right qualifications from our dealers."
Joining Fairbairn in LED Source are general manager and VP of technology Gavin Cooper, who comes from a very recent LED manufacturing and design background, and Cynthia Viteri, VP of sales, who has worked closely with Fairbairn in recent ventures including Gear-Source, Inc, Coemar USA, and Martin Professional. Additional staff members will be introduced in coming months.
The site is online now and has already provided products to clients including a chain of music stores, a top museum design firm, lighting resellers, and high profile clubs.
For more information, visit LED Source or call (866)900-4LED.

Game week: Men's lacrosse team unit breakdown
(Last in a series)
The JU men's lacrosse team opens its season Saturday against Towson at D. B. Milne Field on the JU campus (1 p.m.). This week, a three-part look at the various team units, attack, midfield and defense/goalkeeping.
Today: Defense and goalkeeping
Strengths: This could be the strongest area of the team and midfielders have a lot to do with that assessment. Sophomores Mike McCredie and Will Crenshaw, senior Chip Young and freshman Sam Haus all have flashed in the preseason and the team will be looking to junior John Linnan (12 points in 2011, six goals, six assists) to help lead the unit. Van Arsdale believes short stick midfield defenders are the heart and soul of the defense. " It's tough to be a good defensive team if your short stick defenders aren't very good and I think we have a good core of fast, aggressive, tough guys who have played very well,'' he said. "That's one of the things I'm excited about. That's a good corps to build around. Between the two ends of the field and what we have there's some good strength there and they keep getting better.'' Long poles also are something to write home about. Coach Guy Van Arsdale has a good corps down low led by senior captain Jake Ziegler and junior Tanner Gard. "Both have played a fair amount of lacrosse, understand how we want to play and are doing a terrific job of embracing what we're doing,'' Van Arsdale said. Junior Stephen Spindler, Ben Shaffer, Charlie Archer and Ben Carter all have flashed in practice. Long stick defenders there's Tyler Black and Austin Curtis are very athletic and ''really figuring it out,'' according to Van Arsdale.
Weaknesses: Understanding team concept and that defense in a team-unit game. "It's cliché, but you're only as good as your weakest link and our guys are starting to get that,'' Van Arsdale said. "They understand it's not just you and your man, you have so many responsibilities out there you have to be able to think, read, react and react quickly and aggressively and our guys are getting there. It's something we have to keep getting better at.''
Goalkeeping: Sophomore Pete DeLuca is the man and he has been "terrific,'' Van Arsdale said. DeLuca, who played 848 of 903 minutes last year, has made some changes as to how he's played technically in the past and is becoming an efficient and "very substantial'' goal keeper. Van Arsdale believes DeLuca needs to get better at how to take charge and assert himself out on the field vocally as well as stopping the ball. "He's a very bright guy, a very hard worker, very passionate about playing and all those things are reflected in his play,'' Van Arsdale said. "He will be the backbone of that defense and that's part of why we're excited about the defense.''

Football Scoop is reporting Terry Bowden will hire CTC as Defensive Coordinator. Good Luck Chuck, try not to blow up Terry's staff!!!
Florida State Seminoles Wide Receiver Taiwan Easterling has a ruptured Achilles tendon and will miss spring practice
How does Chuck Amato fit into those plans when Fisher takes over? With Amato wanting to be a head coach again and head coach-in waiting Fisher expected to want many of his own hand-picked people on the defensive side, the answer is that he doesn't. I've mentioned before in this blog there is a need at this point to have it clear cut that Fisher makes the important policy and administrative decisions of the ilk that don't call for Bowden's stamp. With Chuck Amato's holding executive head coaching duties, that's not always happening. I'm not saying Fisher should have that title, just final authority on important administrative and disciplinary type issues not handled by Bowden.Steve Ellis-- Democrat
Has Chuck Amato lost some of his recruiting powers?
Oregon has Chip Kelley, the finest offensive mind in the college game, locked up for their HCIW spot. They're handling this well. Their coach has a fairly reasonable timeline to vacate the position. Further, they are letting their heir apparent make decisions about the coaching staff. Publicly! These firings and new hirings are mostly related to philosophy and recruiting ability. If only Jimbo had the ability to fire Chuck Amato, maybe we wouldn't alienate so many head coaches on the recruiting trail.

Dolphins NT Jason Ferguson recently said it's a toss-up as to whether he plays next season. He'll become an unrestricted free agent in March, and the 35-year-old is still recovering from a torn quadriceps. Head coach Tony Sparano seemed to indicate the team was moving on from Ferguson at a press conference for the Senior Bowl Jan. 28, and he discussed the difficulty of finding quality nose tackles at the pro level. "They really are (hard to find), specifically the good ones and the ones that are built to last. ... That being said, for us, we have (NT) Paul Soliai, who has been a good player for us this year. He's come along. He's a young player that's done some good things there for us right now on our team. Of course, Jason Ferguson was a guy that was with us. We'll see where we go and what kind of need (we have)."

Vancouver Whitecaps
2011 record (finish): 6-18-10, 9th West, 18th MLS
Key additions: LB/RB Lee Young-pyo, CB Martin Bonjour, MF Barry Robson, MF Matt Watson, MF Jun Marques Davidson, FW Sebastien Le Toux, FW Darren Mattocks
Key losses: GK Jay Nolly, MF Shea Salinas, MF Peter Vagenas, MF Nizar Khalfan
Projected starting XI:
Rochat - DeMerit - Bonjour - Lee
Camilo - Davidson - Koffie - Harris
Mattocks - Hassli
Bold prediction: The Whitecaps will be consistently a tier below MLS's top teams but will still be the league's most improved side in 2012, mounting a convincing playoff charge and winning the Canadian championship.
Biggest fear: That the use of decent veteran depth players like Matt Watson, Jun Marques Davidson, and Atiba Harris could crowd out some of Vancouver's exciting young talent in the forms of Russell Teibert, Bryce Alderson, and Gershon Koffie, leading to little improvement for 2013.
What are the Vancouver Whitecaps going to bring in 2012? Well, if I could promise an answer to that I'd quit blogging and start guessing lottery numbers.
The Whitecaps have a bright new coach of limitless potential in Martin Rennie. There are an exciting array of new players, a few of whom are quality prospects and the rest proven factors in good professional leagues. There are few big names (aside from MLS star Sebastien Le Toux and South Korean legend Lee Young-pyo, of course) but a load of quality players at every position bolstered by a couple real game-changers. On paper it can look awfully formidable: a lineup capable of withstanding fatigue and injuries and throwing punches with anybody. Why not go from Wooden Spoon to MLS Cup?
Then again, many of those experienced professionals come from the NASL and not every player, however talented, can make the transition successfully. Question marks abound, again, at every position. Is Joe Cannon a little old and injury-prone? Is Martin Bonjour just Greg Janicki with an import tag? Can Jay DeMerit keep it together for an entire season? Did we see the real Eric Hassli in the first half of last year when he scored like hell and terrorized the league, or in the second half when he played 60 isolated minutes before being mercy-killed? Can Davide Chiumiento play consistent professional soccer, can Omar Salgado and Darren Mattocks play professional soccer period... not a lot would have to go wrong for this team to start warming up another top-two draft pick.
It may average out to a decent run at a playoff spot. Rennie's had his doubters every time he's stepped up a notch but he hasn't coached a bad team yet. His formula hasn't changed much: at every stop he's brought in players he's familiar with, kept those capable of playing at a new level and discarded the ones who aren't without much ceremony. His more cerebral and psychological approach to coaching seems to appeal to the players. It's hard not to be optimistic as a fan, but reviewing the roster with a jaded eye reasons for cynicism leap out.
This is MLS. No team is perfect. But almost all of them have more known quantities on their roster and in their organization than the Whitecaps do. This season could go so many ways it's almost intimidating.

Former daCosta Cup player stages 4th annual football camp
Robert Hemmings gives back to Barrett Town
BARRETT TOWN, St James — More than 130 students from the Barrett Town community in St James recently participated in the 4th annual staging of the Help To Impact Lives (HTIL) summer football camp held on the grounds of the John Rollins Success Primary School.
During the five- day camp, the students aged between six and fifteen, received all- purpose shoes and soccer gear as well as lessons in basic football skills.
According Robert Hemmings, the president of HTIL, a non-profit organisation based in North Carolina, the turnout for the camp this year was the largest since the inception of the programme.
Hemmings, a native of Barrett Town, is a former Cornwall College daCosta Cup football player who is now a computer software programmer residing in North Carolina.
He noted that the success of the camp was made possible by several dedicated volunteers, and expressed gratitude to the board of the Rose Hall Success Primary for the use of the facility.
Several of the students in attendance received prizes based on their performance during the camp.
Among they was Damion Smith who won the Most Outstanding Football Scholar Trophy for the third consecutive year.
Meanwhile, the Rose Hall Basic School was presented with a cheque for $102,000 at the end of the camp. The funds represented the proceeds for a raffle organised by HTIL in collaboration with Robert Hayles of Bottom Road Truck Inc.

Over the years the Africaserver has developed a variety of projects.
Below you see a overview of them with a short description.
The educational projects are listed on a seperate page.
Below you see a overview of them with a short description.
The educational projects are listed on a seperate page.
Virtual Museum of Contemporary African ArtAfter making numerous virtual exhibitions about African artists and artist collectives with the Africaserver a logical next step was the founding of the Virtual Museum for Contemporary African Art. Since it has become a stage on which African artists present themselves to the world. A number of them have found their way to an international audience.
Africanhiphop, hip hop from the motherlandAfricanhiphop.com originated from the editorial staff of the Africaserver. In the meantime it has spawned into a large independant site with lots of information on African rap and African hiphop and with a large and faithfull audience.
Bongotoons, journalism to look atThe virtual exhibition Bongotoons shows work from eleven prominent Tanzanian cartoonists: more than 200 cartoons presented in an interface resembling the popular tabloid newspapers. A unique section of the site is a gallery with animated cartoons. Also featured: the history of cartoons and comics in Tanzania and biografies of the artists.
Virtuele exhibitions, a museum in the makingThe Africaserver made several virtual exhibitions on African artists and artist collectives. From North, South, East and West Afrika. Paintings, statues, photography, 'internet-installations'. These were the predecessors of the VMCAA.
Friqueshun, the power of music and danceThe place on the Africaserver that served information on African music and dance. It was a continuation of the Newsletter of the Afrika Foundation Baobab and the Foundation 'de Afrika Centrale' both published (on paper) in the 90's. In the new Africaserver Magazine music and dance will again get their rightfull place. (archived project)
Housing Generator, houses for hopeThe project 'The Housing Generator' was an initiative to renew the South African cities and their habitat. The project aimed at urbanisation and affordable housing. We produced an online presentation of the competition results and the winners. The opening of the exhibition displaying the winning designs in Johannesburg was at the same time the first presentation of the Africaserver to the world. (archived project)
Africa Television, tv vibranciesAlso known as Afracam. An initiative of the Evert Vermeer Foundation. Afracam was broadcast on local television in Amsterdam. We put it on the internet, then still an experimental excercise. (in Dutch, archived project)

Okay, good luck getting a table any time during the period defined as "brunch" in a college town—in other words, the operating hours (7-3:30, seven days a week) of this homey Southern-themed cafe. A favorite with students and townies alike, Mama's Boy was named "best breakfast" five years in a row by readers of alt-weekly "Flagpole." The kitchen dishes up standbys like eggs and grits, corned-beef studded hash, and fried-chicken stuffed biscuits. Tables of sorority girls indulge in comfort food extravaganzas: "Chocolate Cake for Breakfast" is a menu fixture, and yup, the dish is exactly as billed. You can order granola topped with whipped cream or get there early on Pancake Tuesdays to carbo load.
Lunch options are hearty farmhand-sized portions: pork chops, fish and grits, meatloaf sandwiches. And, of course, this is Athens, so there are vegan-friendly options (we love the hearty tofu stir fry and consider the veggie plate a cut above the standard Southern cafe fare) and a few more ambitious items, such as the oxymoronically rich and light salmon cakes Benedict.
Whatever meal you're indulging in, leave room for the main attraction: a massive square biscuit, buttery and flaky and drizzled with tart raspberry preserves served in a squeeze bottle.
