Lilly's Returning Cash to Shareholders With Generous Dividend, Stock Buybacks
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Eli Lilly (LLY) could be a solid investment.
The drug maker boasts a generous dividend yield, a substantial share buyback program, a new cancer drug and several promising drugs in development.

Lilly -- whose shares traded Thursday morning at $63.16, up 16 cents -- has a dividend yield of 3.2%, compared with 1.9% for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. The stock, which trades at 17.6 times this year's estimated earnings, has risen 23.5% so far this year, compared with an 8.2% gain for the S&P 500.The company is the middle of $5 billion share buyback program which it launched last year. In April, Lilly received approval for its stomach cancer drug, Cyramza. According to Bloomberg, analysts say the drug could generate $1 billion in annual sales. That would help offset the loss in sales from osteoporosis drug Evista, which lost patent protection in March, and the probable loss in sales from Cymbalta, a depression treatment that has been Lilly's top-selling drug but that will lose market exclusivity after this year, >>Read More: Teva Dividend Could Be Cut by Bank of Israel's Rate Cut Last week, Lilly reported positive results for its late-stage studies of its psoriasis treatment, ixekizumab.

TheStreet Ratings team rates LILLY (ELI) & CO as a Buy with a ratings score of B. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate LILLY (ELI) & CO (LLY) a BUY. This is driven by a few notable strengths, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, reasonable valuation levels, increase in stock price during the past year and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income."

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the central bank stands ready to take additional steps to boost U.S. growth and cautioned lawmakers against budget moves that would harm a "sluggish" recovery.
The Fed "will continue to closely monitor economic developments and is prepared to take further action as appropriate to promote a stronger economic recovery in a context of price stability," Bernanke said today in testimony to Congress's Joint Economic Committee in Washington.

Airlines Mired in 'Crisis' as Margins Shrink, IATA CEO Says
Airline profits forecast to total $28 billion in the three years through 2012 may be unsustainable as over-capacity and looming regulatory costs weigh on margins, the head of the IATA industry association said.

Ford Said to Pay UAW Members $9,700 in Bonuses This Year
Ford Motor Co. will pay most of its United Auto Workers- represented employees a $6,000 signing bonus and $3,700 in additional profit sharing this year, people familiar with terms of their tentative four-year agreement said.
Workers with a year or less of service will get a $5,000 signing bonus, said three people familiar with the agreement who asked not to be identified before the union announces the details. Ford will also make annual $1,500 payments to its UAW workers, which take the place of cost-of-living adjustments in their pay, one of the people said.
Ford committed to adding 12,000 hourly jobs in its U.S. manufacturing plants by 2015 as part of the agreement, the Dearborn, Michigan-based company said this morning. The figure includes 5,750 more UAW jobs than a previously announced 6,250 hourly positions to be added by the end of 2012, Executive Vice President John Fleming said at a news conference. 420.

BMW Dangles 19% Discounts as China's Luxury Market Cools: Cars
China is turning into a buyer's market for luxury cars as dealers for Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, Daimler AG and Volkswagen AG's Audi offer discounts to maintain sales as demand cools.
In Beijing, BMW dealerships are giving markdowns of as much as 19 percent on a 3-series car, while some Mercedes dealers are selling the C-Class Elegance model at 20 percent less than the suggested retail price, according to cheshi.com, a pricing guide tracking more than 3,000 dealers in the country.
BMW, Daimler and Audi, the three largest luxury carmakers, face slowing sales growth and falling prices in China, the world's largest automobile market, as some cities impose driving curbs and the central bank tightens lending. The growth in demand for high-end vehicles cooled to 29 percent the first eight months of this year from 48 percent in 2010, according to researcher J.D. Power & Associates. 1120. Moved at 13:15.

Silver Lake Said to Review Yahoo Deal With Alibaba, DST
The private-equity firm Silver Lake, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and Russia's Digital Sky Technologies are discussing a possible joint bid for Yahoo! Inc., three people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
The group contacted Yahoo and its advisers in recent weeks to inform them of a possible offer, said one of the people, who declined to be identified because the talks are private. The discussions are still at an early stage and it's not certain that the group will agree to make a bid, the people said.
Alibaba Chairman Jack Ma said last week he is "very interested" in buying Yahoo, six years after selling a 40 percent stake in China's biggest e-commerce company to the owner of the most-visited U.S. Web portal.

India, Afghanistan Sign Strategic Pact Amid Strain With Pakistan
India and Afghanistan signed a strategic partnership agreement that officials of their governments say will allow for Indian training of Afghan troops in coming years, a step that may exacerbate the two countries' tensions with Pakistan.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai and India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh signed the accord in New Delhi a day after Karzai accused Pakistan in a televised speech of foiling his attempts to make peace with Taliban insurgents by secretly backing their war effort. While U.S.-led forces currently train Afghan troops, their main combat force is scheduled to withdraw by 2014 and Karzai also wants Indian help, his spokesman, Hamed Elmi, told Afghanistan's Tolo TV yesterday.
After years in which Karzai kept India at arm's length on security issues in Afghanistan, his willingness to seek military training "is a joint message he and the Americans are sending to Pakistan that, if you don't come on board and stop supporting these guerrillas, we have an option to strengthen ties with India," said Amin Saikal, an Afghan political scientist at Australian National University. 730.

Libya's Oil Output Rising; Second Largest Refinery Restarts
Libya aims to raise crude oil output to more than 500,000 barrels a day by the end of October, the chairman of state-run National Oil Corp. said as the North African nation resumed operations at the Zawiya refinery, its second-largest.
Damage to energy infrastructure probably amounts to less than $1 billion and mostly affects non-production facilities such as worker housing, Nuri Berruien said yesterday in an interview in the Libyan capital Tripoli. The country's goal of restoring crude production to 1.7 million barrels a day within 15 months is a "conservative figure," he said. 750. Moved at 4:00. By Robert Tuttle.

Contraceptive Injections Double HIV Infection Risk in Study
Using contraceptive injections such as Pfizer Inc.'s Depo Provera doubles the chance women will catch HIV and transmit it to a male partner, a study found.
Researchers from the University of Washington in Seattle followed 3,790 African couples in which one partner was infected with the AIDS-causing virus. Women who used hormone-based contraceptive injections were twice as likely to acquire and pass on HIV as those who didn't, the researchers wrote today in the journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases.

Crosslink Ventures Turn Into Hedge Fund Bet as Hybrid Firm: Tech
On the eve of its Aug. 11 initial public offering, Carbonite Inc., a Boston-based firm that provides online data backup, cut its offering price to $10 a share from a range of $15 to $17.
Presentations to attract investors had collided with a 2,000-point plunge in the Dow Jones Industrial Average during the previous 14 trading days. Carbonite was determined to go public, even though 10 other companies had postponed their debuts, Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its November issue.
Michael Stark, who runs San Francisco-based Crosslink Capital Inc., knew Carbonite. He'd invested $12 million in January as part of a venture-capital deal.
After Carbonite lowered its price, Stark placed an order of 1 million shares at the IPO, doubling his stake to 8.3 percent, split between hedge and venture investments. By the closing bell, Carbonite had gained 24 percent to $12.35. The stock climbed further, giving Crosslink a 28 percent return in a month, trouncing the 3.3 percent gain for the Nasdaq Computer Index. On Oct. 3, the shares traded at $12.
Stark's Carbonite investment is quintessential Crosslink. The firm, with $2.15 billion under management, tries to make money from a hybrid strategy of providing venture funding for private companies and hedge-fund investments to profit from public ones. The setup lets the firm double its bets when it perceives good opportunities. 830. Moved at 9:25. By Kambiz Foroohar.

Readers of my column know how much I love a parade.
What's better than being with the family, enjoying beautiful weather, checking out the floats and the marching bands, and grabbing as much candy thrown on the ground as possible?
Of course, there's always politicians in parades, giving me a flimsy reason to write columns such as this.
Last week I covered the Downtown Youngstown Holiday Parade, the former Youngstown Christmas Parade, that returned for the first time in close to 20 years.
At The Vindicator, reporters rotate weekend shifts and last Saturday I was on duty. That meant my main assignment was the parade. I was looking forward to the parade, and wasn't disappointed.
The city is working to revitalize itself. Bringing back a tradition ¬≠— yes, I realize they changed the name and replaced "Christmas" with "Holiday" — like the parade was a great idea. The parade began in the 1940s and at its peak in the mid-1950s, there were 50,000 to 60,000 at the event each year.
You can tell right away among the politicians who are parade veterans and who's in need of parade assistance.
No doubt Youngstown Councilwoman Carol Rimedio-Righetti, a 2010 Democratic candidate for Mahoning County commissioner, came prepared and ready for battle.
Rimedio-Righetti, D-4th, was on top of an Army National Guard vehicle that appeared to be a modified tank. She was standing on top of this thing rolling down East Federal Street like she was leading a charge. In a way she is.
If Commissioner David Ludt, an 11-year incumbent, decides to seek re-election, the two will face off in the May 2010 Democratic primary. Ludt's campaign team has proven to be one of the most organized and effective in the Mahoning Valley. Rimedio-Righetti is going to have to be at the top of her political game if Ludt runs for re-election. He makes that decision next month.
People were giving the parade participants enough room to get down East Federal, but it got tight at Central Square, where it ended.
That's when Councilman John R. Swierz, D-7th and one of the parade's organizers, took care of business.
Politely, Swierz, a retired firefighter, told those watching the parade on the square to stay behind the solid white lines. They listened. It was either listen or get run over by a marching band, but Swierz did a nice job.
County Auditor Michael Sciortino is a parade expert.
He has the perfect combination of a respectable looking float/truck combined with not only good candy, but enough candy to last the entire parade.
When I'm with the family, I grab a few pieces of candy — all right, a lot of candy — when it's thrown in my direction.
But I was working and had to remain professional. I had to fight back the repeated urges to grab Razzles and other choice street candy staring at me inches from my feet.
While looking down for a moment, Sciortino hit me in the chest twice with miniature candy canes. Cheap shots, but he has good aim.
When the parade was over, Sciortino still had a lot of candy canes and Kisses left in bags. He told me to grab some for my daughters.
I did the first part. As for the second, well, I ate it all on the way back to the office.
My kids don't know anything about it so let's just keep that between us.
As for those in desperate need of parade improvement, three Youngstown City Council members stood out.
DeMaine Kitchen, D-2nd, and Jamael Tito Brown, D-3rd, drove in vehicles smiling and waving. Neither had signs on the outside of the vehicles to identify them.
Councilman Paul Drennen, D-5th, walked the cold parade route with a large white bucket of candy. Apparently it wasn't enough candy. He was running out well before the parade ended forcing him to cut back on how much he tossed to the crowd.
Live and learn.
Im glad you enjoyed the parade David!
I remember the Christmas Parade and how the downtown lit up at Christmas. Strouss's and McKelvey's windows were a site to see, and we children looked forward to their Christmas unveiling each year....they were always beautiful! As a traditionalist, Holiday doesn't get it for me. Christ is the "reason for the season" and when we forget that or push it aside in commemoration of "Holiday" we as a society lose. I'm sorry, but I would never attend such an event until the name is restored....Christmas Parade.....now that has a far better sound....and reason....for me. Merry Christmas!!!
Yes, Jesus gave his life so we could shop at McKelvey's and Strouss! Always remember, Jesus is the reason for going into credit card debt at 22% interest, to buy things made with Chinese slave labor, sold by minimum-wage employees, that no one really wants! As long as we call it "Christmas" instead of "the holiday season", it's okay!
And are you sure it wasn't called the Santa Claus parade back in the day? Because Jesus isn't enough of a god, so we need to make a special god just for Christmas?

Cilic reaches BMW Open finalComment on this story
Munich, Germany – Croatian third-seed Marin Cilic booked his place in the final of Munich's BMW Open with a straight sets win over wildcard Tommy Haas in Saturday's semi-final.
Cilic needed just 75 minutes to secure a 6-3, 6-4 win over former world number two Haas, who defeated Marcos Baghdatis in Friday's quarter-finals and also saw off top seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga earlier in the competition.
In Sunday's final, the 23-year-old Cilic will now face either Spain's Feliciano Lopez, the second seed, or Germany's Philipp Kohlschreiber who meet later on Saturday in the other semi-final. – Sapa-AFP

Not sure why I am so blah and lifeless today, I don't think I am getting enough sleep.
Last night I had to purchase school supplies for my daughter, who is in the 11th grade. Her teachers all specified 2" binders. Do these teachers have any idea how much binders cost - $7.99/each. If they had to buy 6 of these, maybe they wouldn't require them. I spent a whopping $70.00 last night at office max on just binders and tab dividers. Sheesh - I'm not only outraged, I am broke.
Did manage to improve my mood with a core rhythms workout DVD.
People always say the "first step is the biggest" and I leaped to the gym last night. It was so crowded, I guess because it was raining outside, but I managed to ride bike for 30 minutes, while I finished reading my book, Shutter Island. Boy was that book weird and creepy - but good, can't wait for the movie.
Today I started back to walking 30 minutes at lunch like I used to, and boy, do I feel so much better after having done that.
I just feel so darn good right now - Yeah for me - I just need to stay enthusiastic about it. I am glad I have SP to share these small steps with, because no on in my inner circle really thinks it's that much of a big deal - BUT IT IS TO ME !!
Today starts a new chapter - this is my favorite time of year, routine gets back to normal. School started today and with that comes my recommittment to getting in shape. I promised myself I would work out at the gym 3 days a week, regardless. I had grown lazy over the summer, I hate hot weather. But now is the time. I'm gonna do it - work on "me" - I'm totally motivated.
I had to splurge and have a hot dog from the football game last night, by splurging I mean that I did include that in my calories for the day. Why is it that ballpark dogs taste so much better than homemade. Hmmmmm!
I enjoyed my hotdog sitting on the bleachers under an umbrella in the rain. Something as simple as that is what makes life so good - It's the little things in life .

Attention DNP students
- 0Mar 30, '10 by Dr.Naija_QueenGreetings, I have viewed this forum many times as a guest and finally decided to join. After much thought, I have made the decision to pursue the DNP degree. I applied to a couple of schools and received acceptance. The school that I have set my heart on is the Medical University of South Carolina's BSN-DNP program. The track I have chosen is the Pediatric NP route as I am a pediatric nurse and wouldn't think of working in another specialty. My question is how are any of you who are in a DNP program (whether it be post BSN or post MSN) liking it? What are your views on your programs whether they be positive or negative? Are there any students here from MUSC's program? I do not want to discuss whether the DNP degree is a good idea since there are plenty of threads discussing that.
- 0Mar 25, '13 by Dr.Naija_QueenSorry, I am so late on this. I am at MUSC and am enrolled in the BSN-DNP program with the FNP track. As with any new program it is working out some kinks, but overall it is a good program. I'd do it again.
- 0Mar 26, '13 by PatMac10,RNI like the set up that MUSC has, with the option yo recurve your MSN along the way. I plan to apply there when the time comes.,

Borderlands 2 out September 18, gets AMAZING new trailer
Gearbox has announced a North American launch date for Borderlands 2 in a brand new trailer. If you're even mildly interested in this shoot-looting sequel, you'll want to watch it. It's full of so much Wub Wub.
Among the hot dubstep noise, we get to see all four playable characters in action, plenty of gameplay, and some nasty foreshadowing for the evil Handsome Jack. It's understandably gotten me just a little bit damp in my panties.
Who else is excited?

Warning: Residents Beware of Jury Duty Scam
Durham County court officials
have been informed that Durham County residents were recently targeted in a scam involving jury duty.
A caller informed the resident that a bench warrant had been issued because they had failed to report for jury duty. The caller then instructed the resident to make a payment by telephone in order to satisfy the bench warrant.
The resident was suspicious of the call, and rather than provide any information, contacted the Jury Office to follow up.
Court staff and the Sheriff's Office will NEVER contact citizens by phone or email and ask for Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, money, or any other sensitive personal or financial information. Do not give out such information over the phone or by email.

Eclipse Architecture
by, 02-11-2012 at 03:24 PM (1226 Views)
Eclipse is based on plug-ins and uses them to provide core functionality as compared to different other application where hard coded functionality is normally used. Eclipse is based on a runtime system called Equinox that is an implementation of OSGi core framework specification.
This plug-ins is software components that allow Eclipse to extend using other languages like Python or C. Also this plug-ins provides support to work with network applications. Using this plug-ins, you can write extension to Eclipse environment. For example CVS and Java is supported in Eclipse with many other third party plug-ins based version control systems.
At the core of Eclipse is a small run-time kernel. Everything other than this kernel is a plug-in. This plug-ins is integrated with Eclipse in same way like other plug-ins is integrated. This makes all new features are created equal. Eclipse has a support for large variety of plug-ins, for example UML plug-in for UML diagrams and DB Explorer etc.
The Eclpse SDK includes following:
Eclipse Java Development Tools
Java compiler
Full model of the Java source file.
It supports code analysis and advanced level refactoring of code. Eclipse also supports use of workspace where a set of metadata allows external file modifications.
For Java, widget toolkit is implemented by Eclipse that is called SWT. Many other Java applications uses AWT or swing but Eclipse uses a GUI layer called JFace which support building of applications based on SWT.

He said most candidates will not engage in negative campaigns about their opponents because while they may pry some votes loose from their target, those votes may not necessarily go the way they want. They could just as well go to one of the many other candidates.
"That's one of the reasons — the very practical reason — why you're not getting the kind of sharp distinctions between candidates that you would get in an ordinary two-person campaign," Cohen said.
Cherryhomes framed it differently, telling one audience last week that the candidates were running for the city — not against one another.
Stephanie Woodruff, a businesswoman and a member of the city's audit committee, has pursued a similar approach. An opponent of the stadium and of a proposal to bring streetcars to Minneapolis, she touts her motto of "people over projects" at campaign events. But she generally does not tell audiences which of her rivals have supported those deals (Hodges and Samuels voted for streetcars this fall).
Woodruff took more veiled digs at a forum of American Indians last week when she said that Minneapolis doesn't need to be the greenest city in America, a top tenet of Andrew's platform. She did not name him.
"It's like a secret code the candidates are using," said Larry Jacobs, a political-science professor at the University of Minnesota who has hosted mayoral campaign forums.
"I worry that the candidates are maybe overestimating the time and the patience of voters to really sort out these subtle distinctions," he said. "Voters, for the most part, are just too busy with their everyday lives."

Another Republican Pol Fails Purity Test
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 05-09-2010 - 9:48pm
Incumbent Utah Senator Bennett failed the Republican purity test by striking to cooperative a tone with Democrats. David Brooks on MTP today admitted this is a terrible mistake for Republicans.
Goodbye Senator Bennett and all your years of service, the party told him. The clear message to all Republican pols, anyone cooperates with the Dems and they are out out out.
Good luck Senators Hatch, Graham, Snowe and Collins next time your turns are up. The Republican Senators better slink down to Jim DeMint level if they want to survive.
This really isn't going to help Republicans. Ronald Reagan knew that to be successful the party had to appeal to moderates. Ronald Reagan was a man who knew something about politics. Rudderless Republicans today are letting the most conservative currents carry them far far right. This is not going to help them, needless to say the rest of us
I have written off the Republican Party. They are going to be extinct soon if they keep this up.

Science-fiction "contemplates possible futures." So says a new Smithsonian article, and it doesn't seem like a particularly controversial thesis. As the piece says, sci-fi tries to think about what's to come for civilization. "The future is a safe, sterile laboratory for trying out ideas in," as Ursula K. Le Guin says.
But it's worth remembering that in sci-fi, the future actually isn't safe or sterile at all. On the contrary, with its alien invasions, evil empires, authoritarian dystopia, and new lands discovered and pacified, the genre can look as much like the past as the future. In particular, sci-fi is often obsessed with colonialism and imperial adventure, the kind that made the British Empire an empire and that still sustains America's might worldwide.
The link between colonialism and science-fiction is every bit as old as the link between science-fiction and the future. John Rieder in his eye-opening book Colonialism and the Emergence of Science-Fiction notes that most scholars believe that science fiction coalesced "in the period of the most fervid imperialist expansion in the late nineteenth century." Sci-fi "comes into visibility," he argues, "first in those countries most heavily involved in imperialist projects—France and England" and then gradually gains a foothold in Germany and the U.S. as those countries too move to obtain colonies and gain imperial conquests. He adds, "Most important, no informed reader can doubt that allusions to colonial history and situations are ubiquitous features of early science fiction motifs and plots."
The iconic example of colonialism-inspired sci-fi is that most important of sci-fi stories, H.G. Wells's War of the Worlds. As Rieder says, Wells begins his book with an explicit comparison of the Martian invasion to colonial expansion in Tasmania. "The Tasmanians," Wells writes,
in spite of their human likeness, were entirely swept out of existence in a war of extermination waged by European immigrants, in the space of fifty years. Are we such apostles of mercy as to complain if the Martians warred in the same spirit?"
Here the Martian conquest is presented as analogous to, and even as just retribution for, Britain's colonial genocide. As has been visited on them, so shall it be visited on us.
With Wells in mind, it's easy to see colonial metaphors throughout the sci-fi that followed him. In many cases, as with Wells, these works flip the racial dynamic that characterized the most influential imperialist ventures of the last few centuries. In such stories, sci-fi is about "them" (a non-white, foreign civilization) doing to us (Western, largely white powers) as we did to them. Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan and Into Darkness, for example, imagine a non-white antagonist who preaches the colonial ideology of eugenic culling against the less biologically perfect, Western-ish protagonists.
Even works in which the invaders are white can come off like historical fiction envisioning an inversion of Anglo hegemony. Take Terry Gilliam's film Brazil, about a totalitarian Britain conquered and occupied by Germany, in which native English people are second-class citizens. From Brazil, it's only a brief hop to 1984, which, as I've pointed out here at The Atlantic, can also read as a reverse colonial parable. Rather than seeing the novel as a riff on Hitler and Stalin's brand of totalitarianism, as it's usually interpreted, you can instead think about it as inspired by the repressive state in which Orwell served—British-controlled Burma.
Even the Terminator films fit pretty easily into a colonial narrative. At first, they may seem far afield from geographic conquest; the plot, after all, hinges on time-traveling robots, not invading aliens. But Rieder points out that for Wells, the War of the Worlds was a battle not only across space, but across time. Wells's Martians, with their giant craniums and atrophied bodies, were meant to be a warning of our own evolutionary future, just as the Tasmanians were generally viewed by Westerners as preserved, primitive living remnants of the evolutionary past. Thus, the computers in Terminator can be seen as not-fully-evolved colonial servants, who eventually evolve into more-advanced colonial masters.
