Fabs, I confess! I'm a NUDE-ist! Never. Underestimate. Dynamic. Elongation. Who doesn't want the illusion of longer legs? Bright colors are great for accents, but neutral-hued shoes are a bare essential for spring. It's a movement that I took on the road. On a trip to NYC for meetings earlier this month, Jovita and I were ready to do business. Her taupe tone is a must-have this season. The peep toe pumps popped against my dark denim and cropped trench. I told a similar blue and beige color story on my return, pairing Ondrei with a striped tee, navy scarf and brown leather jacket. This slingback's keyhole gives a sexy peek at flirty chic! So who else out there is a NUDE-ist? Will you show some skin in these barely there beauties?

If you've already gotten a head start on your spring cleaning, then surely you've disposed of a few old accessories. Which means: you can shop for some new replacements guilt-free! After all, spring is the season of revitalization and renewal, and what better way to freshen up your warm-weather wardrobe than with a bold handbag? We've compiled a collection of styles in every color of the kaleidoscope so you can shop the shades you love all in one place. Whether you opt for a nude neutral or pick out something from our old friend ROY G BIV, I encourage you to get a little crazy with your carryall this season. Be brave and intensify your traditional dark duds with a tangerine satchel or create a colorblock look with a yellow tote bag and blue and green separates. Because with so many hues from which to choose, there's no excuse for being boring!
There's been a lot of emphasis on pastels and nudes this season. And while they are prevalent, they're certainly not the only key spring trends you'll see. My personal favorite is oceanic influences. After working in the fashion industry for almost 5 years, this is the first 'new' concept I've seen. Plus, I love how designers have incorporated these inspirational elements into their collections. From fishtail gowns and high-shine metallics to shades of coral and textured details, signs of the sea have totally washed ashore. And one great way the most fashionable of landlubbers can keep this fad afloat is with metallic magenta platform pumps.
Look what I found! It's video footage of Avril Lavigne's private performance at her launch party in Hollywood earlier this month. She sang four of her chart-topping hits to a packed house at The Viper Room to celebrate the exclusive debut of her Abbey Dawn shoe and handbag collection on JustFab.com. Today we have another exciting fashion milestone to commemorate: select Abbey Dawn apparel is now available on JustFab.com at members-only prices! From devil-horned hoodies and slogan tees to graphic-print tanks and cocktail dresses, you can wear Avril's edgy designs from head to toe! So to get you in the mood (and to please those who were bummed that they missed the show), I encourage you to watch her intimate concert and rock out as if you were standing in the front row. Then you can shop your heart out. And be sure to let us know what you thought of her performance and the collection!
Not sure if you've heard, but nude-hued shoes are kind of a big deal this spring. And by 'kind of a big deal' we mean absolutely, positively, cannot-go-another-minute-without-owning-a-pair essential. But why exactly are these barely there phenomenons so super fantastic that we can't stop talking about them? Because they're not just en vogue, FABshionistas; they are the ultimate ultra-sexy accessory. By blending in with your skin, they lengthen your legs, glorify your gams and, in general, make your stems look sensational. So to aid in your quest for the perfect pair of leg-elongators, we've compiled an entire collection of flesh-toned styles and put them all in one place. We guarantee that if these Blushing Nudes don't cause your cheeks to become immediately flushed, they'll certainly bring some color to the face of your man du jour. So will you go nude this season?
Avril Lavigne's new collection of Abbey Dawn shoes and handbags is a hit on JustFab.com! Styles are flying off the shelves faster than you can say 'What the hell?!' From studded high heels and graphic-print flats to tough boots and bold handbags, these stage-worthy accessories are making us fall to pieces! But we knew you'd love the pop star's super rock 'n roll, super edged-out styles. The question is: what does the 'Wish You Were Here' singer think about her punk designs? Watch her 'Give 'Em The Boot' video now to find out!
Thanks to Cher and Christina Aguilera, Burlesque influences are back in a big way. Not only is this form of theater extravagant, over-the-top and insanely sexy, it's also evocative of fashion from the 1920s that we've been seeing on the runways. And while lacy lingerie and sheer thigh-highs may not be appropriate for your everyday ensembles, you can still incorporate a touch of temptress into your outfit with corset-inspired accessories. Whether you opt for a high heel stiletto, flirty flat or even a seductive shoulder bag, the irresistible lace-up detail will help you unleash your sass and reveal your flair for the dramatic. Just be prepared to put on a show!
Mint green was all over the spring runways. Pants, dresses, button-downs, you name it, designers like Tory Burch, Rodarte and Diane von Furstenberg made it. But just because the fashion lords say it's great, doesn't mean us real women can pull it off. As cool as seafoam can be, it also has the potential to make you look a bit sickly. But have no fear, FABshionistas, the experts at JustFab.com are here to save your style. They put together a few looks, just in time for St. Patrick's Day, that will have your friends green with envy!

Gov't reaffirms commitment to long-term care
- 'Huge opportunities for IFAs in long-term care advice'
- Panel stresses need for advice to help elderly
- Partnership talks to councils for long-term care services
More on UK Regulation
During a meeting of the all-party parliamentary group for local government on social care, he said the Dilnot commission's report into funding long-term care was "not in the past" and that the government was set to respond to the recommendations.
Mr Gallagher said: "The government has recognised the importance and urgency in addressing this area. It remains the case that it will respond to the questions it asked Dilnot to look at."
However, he added the recommendations Dilnot made "do involve a cost, so the government has to think of how to implement the cost. There is no simple or straightforward answer to that."
He went on to tell the cross-party committee of MPs there is a "huge amount of ignorance and lack of awareness" on how the care system works and that it must be fair and reward those who plan ahead for their own care.
He added any new funding system must integrate other services, such as the NHS and housing, with local government playing a leading role in delivery, and particularly supporting self-funders.
The comments followed a report in the Financial Times that suggested social care reform will be delayed until the next Parliament, despite coalition promises in 2010 that legislation for a legal and financial framework for adult social care would happen in 2012/2013.
Janet Davies, joint founder of care consultancy Symponia, said: "While the government tinkers around the edges of the problem, real people still need care.
"Future generations will get a better deal but hundreds of thousands of elderly people are already either in care homes or receiving assistance at home. For most, any reforms will simply be too late."
Spokesmen for the DoH and Downing Street declined to comment.
Toni Chalmers-Smith, senior financial adviser for Hertfordshire-based Tee Financial, said: "So many people are going into care and their families don't have a clue what it will cost.
"By delaying these reforms the government is delaying the whole social care debate, which we hoped would bring the subject into the public arena to be openly discussed.
"There is a total lack of information about care costs and these reforms created an opportunity for a public awareness campaign. We must keep the momentum going. It really must be addressed and I hope it is in parliament."

Heinz Cuts Energy Costs 13% at Food Processing Plant
Heinz has reduced its carbon emissions by 17,000 tons since 2006 at its UK factories in Kendal, Cumbria and Kitt Green with the help of Carbon Trust, reports Food and Drink Digital.
The foods company also has cut its energy costs at the UK factories, saving more than 13 percent of its annual energy costs in the Kitt Green food-processing complex alone, over the last two years, reports Carbon Trust. An energy audit of Heinz' production lines helped the foods company achieve the energy savings.
Heinz energy managers discovered that a lot of energy was required to heat cold water to rehydrate the dried beans, as well as create the steam to cook the beans in their cans, reports Food and Drink Digital.
By capturing and recycling the waste heat from these processes, less energy is now needed to heat the water, which also has resulted in a drop in carbon emissions, says Carbon Trust.
Hugh Jones, director, solutions, the Carbon Trust, told the news site that there many opportunities to save energy and cut carbon emissions by changing the way companies manufacture everyday products.
Other initiatives that helped Heinz cut energy use and carbon emissions include improving the efficiency of its boilers and making design changes to production line machines.
The foods company also is looking at ways to produce power from waste and use more renewable energy in an effort to help the company meet its goal to cut global carbon emissions 20 percent, based on 2005 levels, by 2015, reports Carbon Trust.
Heinz, along with some of the UK's largest retailers Asda, Boots, Tesco and Sainsbury's, also has voluntarily agreed to reduce the carbon footprint of its grocery packaging by 10 percent by 2012.

'Things Being What They Are' transcends male stereotypes
I'll admit I wasn't doing cartwheels upon learning the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre's holiday play, Wendy MacLeod's "Things Being What They Are," involves two middle-aged, avowedly heterosexual men bonding over brewskis. One of the many reasons I go to the theater is to escape such conversations, which are frequently slathered in cliché when they're not conducted in guttural utterances.
But as MacLeod's smartly written, warm and funny play makes clear, such stereotyping isn't fair to men, and it certainly isn't fair to this moving and entertaining production, which marks the talented Michael Cotey's Chamber directorial debut and features winning performances from actors Dan Katula and Ryan Schabach. »Read Full Article

'Lone Ranger' returns, surprisingly, to thrilling entertainment like yesteryear
How subversive of Disney to release during the Fourth of July holiday a comedy action film that is in part about the American Indian genocide.
Those who go to "The Lone Ranger" because it stars Johnny Depp will come away satisfied by a performance that reminds them of his "Pirates of the Caribbean" character. And the film contains elements — silver bullet and "William Tell Overture" included — familiar from the TV series and, before that, radio show. »Read Full Article
'Revertigo' author Skloot appearing at Boswell
Floyd Skloot's new memoir, "Revertigo" (Terrace Books), covers many topics: a community theater production of "The King and I," New York accents, his mother's remarriage, books he tries but just can't read.
But its big subject is the unexpected, devastating attack of vertigo that struck him on March 27, 2009, and lasted 138 days. In putting together this book, Skloot writes, he realized "my work was exploring balance and its loss, how the forces of uncertainty and sudden change and displacement had shaped me since childhood, as it shapes many of us..." »Read Full Article

Advisor Perspectives welcomes guest contributions. The views presented here do not necessarily represent those of Advisor Perspectives.
The Downside Hedge Twitter Sentiment indicator for the S&P 500 Index (SPX) closed Friday with a reading of +19.4. We consider a print of +20 near a market low as an initiation thrust that often signals a resumption of an uptrend. Friday's reading indicates the market should continue to move higher in the near term.
Smoothed sentiment held up fairly well considering the 5% sell off over the past few weeks. It barely fell below the zero line which reflects the large volume of tweets we saw calling for a bounce near 1600 on SPX. We feel fairly confident that there is a triangle pattern in smoothed sentiment that is created from a longer term uptrend and a short term down trend. If smoothed sentiment can break above its down trend line it would create a buy signal based on one of our criteria for trading individual stocks. The long term trend line holding in sentiment with the 50 day moving average holding in price creates a possible setup. An initiation thrust followed by a break higher in smoothed sentiment creates the buy signal. We'll post an updated chart on Downside Hedge and on Twitter @DownsideHedge if we get a signal.
We're seeing an interesting shift in sentiment from the small consolidations in February through April. Those smaller price moves brought with them much more fear on the daily indicator and substantial dips below the zero line on smoothed sentiment. More traders then believed that the market was putting in an intermediate term top. During that time period we observed a lot of tweets mentioning underlying technical indicators pointing to lower prices. We are not seeing that today. Instead, most traders are focused simply on the need of a short term consolidation or correction before moving higher.
Support and resistance levels generated from the Twitter stream stayed mostly the same this week. There is major support below the market at 1600 and 1585 on SPX. Above the market traders are now targeting 1650, 1680, and 1700.
The sell off last week did some damage to Twitter sentiment for leading sectors. Only energy and financials held above the zero line. Sentiment for utilities moved back to positive territory suggesting that traders believe the recent correction in that sector is a bit overdone.
It appears that the market is poised to move higher over the near term. The important support level of 1600 on SPX held, we almost got an initiation thrust, the tone of tweets is constructive, and smoothed sentiment looks like it will flash a buy signal. A failure in smoothed sentiment at its down trend line and a break below its uptrend line will cause us to change our opinion to a resumption of the down trend.
Note : I've created a video that focuses on how I use the indicator to trade individual stocks.
Here's some written explanation about the video that clarifies some things and also describes what the annotations on the charts mean.
Here also is a download page so readers can load the sentiment indicator into their own chart packages. It's located here.

MONTROSE, Colo. (KKCO) - A Montrose family is frantically searching for their 82-year-old father, Tom Boylan.
According to a neighbor, at 10:30 p.m. last Tuesday, 82-year-old Tom Boylan got into his 1990 white Chevrolet Suburban. He let the engine heat up for about five minutes. Then he headed north. That was the last time anyone saw him.
The vehicle is white with a light blue strip. The driver door and front fender are both a dark blue. The license plate number is 540-PCP.
Some say Boylan's disappearance could be linked to a case of dementia. But his son, Tommy Boylan, disagrees.
"I don't see him being out of it so much to where he would just forget who he was or where he was or anything like that," says Boylan.
The family hopes that foul play is not that case, but as the days go by that hope is slowly dwindling.
Montrose Police has received tips in the case. Several callers saying they saw a confused elderly man, wearing suspenders, wandering around Wal-Mart.
Boylan is notorious for wearing suspenders. He is about 135 pounds, 5'10" and wears glasses.
The police are waiting for surveillance footage from Wal-Mart, but unfortunately that could take a few more days.
For the Boylan family they are anxious to bring their dad home and are asking for prayers and support from the community.
Anyone with information about Boylan is asked to contact the Montrose Police at (970) 252-4010.

Ari Melber is an Emmy-nominated journalist and lawyer. He serves as Chief Legal Correspondent for MSNBC, covering the Justice Department, Supreme Court, FBI and legal issues, and reports across all NBC platforms, appearing as an on-air correspondent and host, reporting original stories for NBCNews.com, and providing legal analysis on programs such as "The Today Show" and "The Nightly News."
Melber also serves as a guest host for shows such as "The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell," "The Rachel Maddow Show," and "Hardball." He anchors and writes an MSNBC series on inequities in the criminal justice system, Presumed Guilty, and a series on legal and policy challenges in counterterror, Rules of Engagement. In his reporting for MSNBC, Melber has interviewed Attorney General Eric Holder, Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, Judge Richard Posner, U.S. Solicitor General Don Verrilli, Senators Ted Cruz, Al Franken, Mike Lee, Cory Booker and Rand Paul, and a wide range of policymakers and experts.
A 2014 profile in the Columbia Journalism Review dubbed Melber a "rising star" who "wants to solve problems," and his reporting and writing has been cited by The New York Times, Washington Post, Washington Times, Guardian, Rolling Stone, National Review and The Economist. Melber writes columns for Reuters and is a former correspondent for The Nation and a former columnist for Politico; his writing has also been published by The Washington Post, The Atlantic, The American Prospect, The Baltimore Sun and The New York Daily News, among others.
From 2009 to 2013, Melber practiced law at a major New York firm, specializing in First Amendment, reporter's privilege and copyright litigation. Melber received a J.D. from Cornell Law School, where he was an editor of the Cornell Journal of Law and Public Policy, and he is a member of the New York Bar.
During the 2008 general election, Melber traveled with the Obama Campaign on special assignment for The Washington Independent. He previously served as a legislative aide to Sen. Maria Cantwell, and as a national staff member of the 2004 John Kerry Presidential Campaign.
In 2010, Melber authored a 74-page report for techPresident, a nonpartisan website covering political technology, analyzing the first year of Organizing for America, the 13-million person network that grew out of the 2008 presidential campaign. Northwestern political scientist Daniel Galvin called the report "the most comprehensive and insightful account of Obama's 'Organizing for America' to date," and the report's findings were cited by The New York Times, The Washington Post, National Journal, Rolling Stone and the BBC.
Melber has been a featured speaker at Oxford, Yale, Harvard Law School, Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, the Columbia University Political Union, NYU, Georgetown University, USC, The Center for American Progress, The TimeWarner Summit, Alpha Phi Alpha, the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, and several state bar associations.
Melber has contributed chapters or essays to the books "America Now," (St. Martins, 2009), "At Issue: Affirmative Action," (Cengage, 2009), and "MoveOn's 50 Ways to Love Your Country," (Inner Ocean Publishing, 2004). His investigative reporting has been cited in over twenty nonfiction books, including "Power and Constraint: The Accountable President After 9/11," "Shelby County v. Holder: a New Perspective on Voting Rights," "Managing Alone: Obama, Organizing for Action and Policy Advocacy in the Digital Era," "Political Campaign Communication: Principles and Practices," "Rethinking Arab Democratization," and in academic journals including, among others, The New England Journal of Medicine, The Middle East Journal, International Affairs, American Behavioral Scientist, Catholic University Law Review, the Journal on Telecommunications & High Technology Law and Boston University Law Review.

When using WordPress 3.5 (tried with 2 different installations) and latest Attachments version 3.0.4. I can't seem to attach PDF, DOC or TXT files.
When attaching, I can SEE all types of files in the new Media pop-up window, but after selecting for example one pdf file and clicking "Attach", nothing happens. The Attachments field still shows only "Attach files here!" message and "Attach files" button.
But, when selecting the image file as attachment, then everything works as it should and the attachment is visible with the 3 fields for Title, Caption and Copyright showing and attachments working/showing in the loop. Oh, and yes, the "filetype" property in the functions.php is set tu null.
Strange thing is, on one of the 2 installations I upgraded from the 1.6.2. version and the migrated PDF attachments from older version are visible (in admin and on the webpage).

History and information about Bilstein and their products.
Shock absorbers. What do they do? The shock absorbers reduce and slow down the vibrations from the springs. LMPerformance chose BILSTEIN SHOCKS for its customers because BILSTEIN is a recognized name in the field of suspension design.
The mono-tube gas pressure technology was developed by BILSTEIN and remains the standard in automotive construction. This BILSTEIN technology involves the keeping of the oil in the absorber under pressure, preventing it from foaming when temperatures and loads are increasing. The BILSTEIN technology gives the vehicle a high level of traction and more precise handling.
The BILSTEIN company produces mono-tube gas pressure shock absorbers and twin-tube shock absorbers. The BILSTEIN mono-tube gas pressure shock is first in motorsports and series-production sports car because It provides a large effective surface on the working piston. This results in increased damping power, better handling and improved improves the dissipation of thermal engergy outward senabling a high level of performance. The majority of vehicles, however use the twin-tube shock absorber.

Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
A healthy and simple recipe that yields a wonderfully elegant dish. Great served with sticky rice.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 16 ounces tilapia fillets (4 fillets)
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced very finely
- 1⁄4 cup miso
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Whisk together everything except for the fish filets.
- Submerge fish in sauce to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- In nonstick or lightly oiled skillet, sear fish over medium high heat for 4-5 minutes or until fish is white and fully cooked.
- Remove fish from pan and plate filets.
- Pour leftover marinate into skillet and stir for 5 minutes while sauce thickens.
- Drizzle over filets.
Most Helpful
This was very tasty, it did not need addition glaze as a sauce though. I made enough but didn't use it since it would have masked the tilapia. Really nice browning on the fish, maybe 1/2 the recipe though.

Could you please upgrade to the latest revision of trunk and see either if the issue is resolved or if you get a more explicit error message?
Also, have you used the exact example given in the documentation or have you customized it a bit. If you could post the exact code you've used, that would be helpful.

I downloaded trunk and got the error:

all work.

- Severity changed from Normal to Release blocker
Thank you for providing this code sample.
I confirm that something seems quite wrong here; either in the admin documentation, or in the ORM. I would have imagined that "birthday__year__gte=1960" would be a valid lookup, but maybe that isn't supported by the ORM; if it isn't supported, then the admin documentation sample should be fixed. If it should be supported then this would be a bug in the ORM. I thought this might have been a regression introduced by [17450], but reverting the change from that commit doesn't make this code sample work either.
It's late and my brain is a little fried. As a cautionary measure, I'm marking this ticket as release blocker until we dig out the real nature of this potential bug.
comment:4 Changed 4 years ago by julien
- Component changed from contrib.admin to Documentation
- Severity changed from Release blocker to Normal
- Triage Stage changed from Unreviewed to Accepted
Ok, I've verified with the 1.3.X branch and there is no regression here. The ORM simply does not consider "birthday__year__gte" a valid lookup. So I'll just fix the documentation issue.

Be Nothing Presents: Molly Nilsson + Support
Molly Nilsson
Molly Nilsson has been running her own label and producing her own music since 2007, releasing 4 albums, several eps and producing evocative videos that elaborate on the themes she is obsessed by.
The music released under own moniker is a heartfelt rendering of romanticised pop music, gloriously DIY in method and honest in practice. Clearly influenced by the minimal synthesizer pop of the 80s but also adept at timeless melancholic song writing, each song presents a compact sound world which twinkles with a sense of loneliness and the warmth of its opposite.

Dividends are the hottest niche in the exchange-traded fund world, and there's little mystery why.
It's interest rates. Bonds, money market funds and certificates of deposit are paying out such paltry sums to savers that the dividend yield of the Standard & Poor's 500 not only exceeds the interest rate on 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds but now does so by more than half a percentage point -- 2.1% versus 1.5%. "If you look at the traditional income products, many of them actually have negative real returns when you factor in inflation," says Neena Mishra, director of ETF research at Zacks Investment Research. "Income investors are looking for alternatives, and many of them are turning to dividend ETFs."
Since the start of 2011, the number of dividend ETFs has soared from 29 to 49, according to Morningstar, and the total assets under management in the category has ballooned from $22 billion to $47 billion. This is one instance where investors are clearly not chasing performance, as the category has produced rather mediocre total returns. iShares Dow Jones Select Dividend Index dvy -0.8304498269896193% iShares Select Dividend ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 85.98 -0.72 -0.8304498269896193% /Date(1472245200322-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1523469 AFTER HOURS 85.9607 -0.0193 -0.022447080716445685% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 21014 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 3.1394324261456155% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (ticker: DVY) -- one of the oldest dividend ETFs and, until recently, the largest -- lost 0.9% every year, on average, over the past five years, while the S&P 500 lost 0.3% in the same period. It hasn't fared any better in 2012; DVY's year-to-date return is 6.3%, while the S&P has returned 7.9%. By comparison, Morningstar's equity-income mutual-fund category also trails the S&P; the category has lost 2.6% annually over five years, and returned 5.4% year-to-date.

Is the New Money-Market Fund an ETF?
The Good Times Can't Last Forever
Still, if you want income and can accept the fact that the monthly dividend payments will not be as predictable as, say, income from a bond fund, dividend ETFs do have appeal. Like other equity ETFs, they track stock indexes that are usually well-diversified and easy to buy and sell, and they have lower expense ratios than comparable actively managed mutual funds. The largest dividend ETF, for instance, Vanguard Dividend Appreciation vig -0.29277432954678534% Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 85.14 -0.25 -0.29277432954678534% /Date(1472245200022-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 767346 AFTER HOURS 85.14 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 713 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 2.0953723279304675% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (VIG), has an expense ratio of only 0.13%, even cheaper than the already-cheap Vanguard Equity-Income fund (VEIPX), which charges 0.31%. That expense difference comprises a big chunk of the performance gap between Vanguard's ETF (five-year annual total return: 1.9%) and its actively-managed equity-income cousin (1.22%). "The lower-expense products tend to do very well," says Michael Iachini, ETF analyst at Charles Schwab Investment Advisory, which consults on portfolio construction for individuals and advisors.
Investors who buy dividend ETFs do need to keep close tabs on their funds' holdings. One problem is that the indexes these funds track tend to favor stocks with the highest dividend yields, and those stocks aren't always the highest quality companies, which means investors could be setting themselves up for a problem. The highest-yielding stock in the S&P 500, for instance, is Duke Energy DUK -2.2146090786736816% Duke Energy Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD79.92 -1.81 -2.2146090786736816% /Date(1472245331634-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2364847 AFTER HOURS USD79.98 0.06 0.07507507507507508% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 35874 P/E Ratio 21.0443162967059 Market Cap 55064878738.4033 Dividend Yield 4.2792792792792795% Rev. per Employee 784946 More quote details and news » (DUK), which has a 13.8% dividend yield but a world of management and acquisition troubles. "For some investors, active management probably is the way to go when it comes to income-oriented products," says Amy Charles, director of closed-end fund research at Raymond James Financial.
Another problem with dividend ETFs is their lack of transparency, at least when it comes to how they select stocks. When you buy a conventional ETF like Powershares QQQ qqq 0.14578509561787154% PowerShares QQQ Trust Series 1 U.S.: Nasdaq 116.78 0.17 0.14578509561787154% /Date(1472245200383-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 23602706 AFTER HOURS 116.68 -0.1 -0.08563110121596164% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 293257 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 0.9818462065422161% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (QQQ), you know it will hold the 100 largest stocks by market capitalization in the Nasdaq Stock Market. When you buy the largest dividend ETF, Vanguard Dividend Appreciation vig -0.29277432954678534% Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 85.14 -0.25 -0.29277432954678534% /Date(1472245200022-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 767346 AFTER HOURS 85.14 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 713 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 2.0953723279304675% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (VIG), you're buying a bit of a black box. All you know about its stock selection is that the holdings will have at least 10 years of dividend increases and will track Mergent's "Dividend Achievers Select Index." And how exactly is the Dividend Achievers Select Index assembled? "Mergent does not disclose our methodologies," says Karlyn Johnston, the indexer's spokeswoman.
In other words, if you're going to buy Vanguard Dividend Appreciation -- a fund that has outperformed its category over the past five years and is a favorite of Morningstar ETF analyst Timothy Strauts -- or any other dividend ETF -- you need to check the holdings regularly. If you don't, you run the risk of getting into the kind of trouble investors in dividend ETFs found themselves in five years ago.
Any dividend-stock index that puts a premium on high dividends could back shareholders into a disproportionate number of low-quality stocks—particularly if corporate earnings are in decline. That's exactly what happened in 2008 and 2009, when many of the highest-yielding stocks heading into the financial crisis were bank stocks. Bank managements were slow to cut dividends even as the crisis deepened, which caused bank-stock dividend yields to soar. (Yields often move in the inverse direction of stock prices.)
Consequently, several dividend ETFs wound up formulaically increasing their exposure to financials at a time when the human managers of traditional equity income funds were cutting back. "DVY got killed because it loaded up on financials right as the crisis started," says Strauts. Between September 2008 and March 2009, Dow Jones Select Dividend's share price fell 56%. Another dividend ETF, PowerShares High Yield Equity pey -0.5047318611987381% PowerShares High Yield Equity Dividend Achievers Portfolio U.S.: NYSE Arca 15.77 -0.08 -0.5047318611987381% /Date(1472245197559-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 361049 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 3.2073557387444516% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (PEY), became even more overexposed to financials -- in October 2008 bank stocks comprised 55% of total assets -- and it wound up losing 67% over the same period.
Dividend ETFs may look the same on the outside, but underneath the label they can have very different ingredients. Peter and Maria Hoey for Barron's
One reason to like the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF is its focus on companies that grow their dividends, as opposed to those with the highest yields. While that doesn't preclude VIG from becoming overexposed to financials or any other sector, it did perform less badly during the financial crisis, losing only 39%.

In contrast, Powershares High Yield Equity may boast a higher dividend yield -- 3.7% to VIG's 2.1% -- but it also owns lower-quality companies.

"If I'm an investor, I'd want to research whether these stocks' dividends are going up for the right reasons or the wrong ones. You don't want to buy a dividend ETF just because it has an above-average yield."
The same goes for international or emerging-markets ETFs, many of which have alluringly high yields, anywhere from 4% to 10%. That may make them a smarter way to play emerging markets, but they're not a replacement for income investors concerned about safety and steadiness. Among the challenges associated with investing overseas -- and especially in emerging markets -- are lax accounting standards and uneven enforcement in countries such as China.
That said, for ETFs specifically focused on quality dividend-paying companies, dividends can be a backdoor way of screening out the poorer risks. "If I'm running an investment fraud," says Morningstar's Strauts, "I'm probably not paying a dividend."

And perhaps not coincidentally, Wisdom Tree Emerging Markets also has the superior three-year average annual return: 14% to 10.5%.

Another strategy: A "low volatility" equity ETF. A recent study by economist and quantitative-investing expert Robert Haugen found that low-risk stocks -- those less prone to wild swings in price -- outperformed the market from 1990 to 2011. While low-volatility ETFs do not intentionally select high-dividend stocks, many of the steadiest-performing companies do pay higher dividends. Thus the largest low-volatility ETF -- Powershares S&P 500 Low Volatility Portfolio splv -0.9243896657975824% PowerShares S&P 500 Low Volatility Portfolio U.S.: NYSE Arca 41.8 -0.39 -0.9243896657975824% /Date(1472245200007-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3538732 AFTER HOURS 41.91 0.11 0.2631578947368421% Volume (Delayed 15m) : P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 1.8660287081339713% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (SPLV) -- boasts a dividend yield of 2.9%.
The Largest Dividend ETFs
The ETF industry is highly concentrated, and when it comes to picking a fund, bigger is often better. While there are 49 dividend-focused ETFs on the market with a total of $47 billion in assets, the 10 largest make up more than 90% of those assets, or $43.5 billion. Stick with the well-established funds.

February 01, 2008

Back in December, New Jersey's state officials repealed the death penalty. They didn't use it anyway, so the decision probably had little real effect.
After all, the most infamous denizen of the Garden State's death row was Jesse Timmendequas. And if anybody ever needed killing, this waste of human skin does.
In 1994, the state of New Jersey plopped this monster and his two fellow sex offender roomies into a neighborhood full of unsuspecting people and across the street from the home of seven-year-old Megan Kanka.
Sex offenders, especially child molesters, are extremely difficult to rehabilitate.
Jesse was no exception. And in the twisted wiring that passes for his brain, he found a lust object in seven-year-old Megan. He used the old "Want to see my puppy?" bait line to persuade the little girl to come into his home. He raped her. Smashed her head into a dresser. Strangled her with his belt. And raped her corpse. The next day he confessed to the crime.
Three years later Jesse Timmendequas was convicted of kidnapping, aggravated sexual assault, and murder. He was sentenced to death. And can you think of anybody who deserved the needle more than this guy?
But two months ago, Jesse Timmendequas received a Christmas present when Gov. Jon S. Corzine signed a bill that repealed the state's death penalty. He is now serving life in prison without parole.
I recap this story, not because of some particular desire to explain the origin of Megan's Law, which requires sex offenders to register and is named for Megan Kanka, but to point out the following: This guy was on death row three years longer than Megan Kanka drew breath.
Which begs the question: Did New Jersey even really have a death penalty? I mean even with appeals, Jesse Timmendequas should have been scragged, toe-tagged, and bagged long before the Y2K celebrations. But no one has been executed in the Garden State since 1963. I repeat…1963.
The powers that be in New Jersey had so little support for capital punishment that they didn't even seek it in cop killings. Maybe such a capital punishment-supporting jury could have prevented the travesty of justice that occurred in Newark two months before Gov. Corzine repealed the state's death penalty.
Back in July 2005, Newark Special Officer Dwayne Reeves, 28, was gunned down in front of the high school where he served. At the time, he was trying to handcuff Blood gang enforcer Khalil Tutt, 28, who was intent on attacking a student who had fought with his younger sister.
His trial was held last October. And despite eyewitness testimony that Tutt had killed Reeves, the jury reduced Tutt's first-degree murder charge to reckless manslaughter. Prosecutors believe the jury was intimidated.
Fortunately, justice wasn't totally blind in this case. Superior Court Judge Michael Casale was so pissed by the jury's verdict that he used the jury's guilty verdicts on some ancillary charges to give Tutt 30 years. Of course, Tutt's attorney is appealing the sentence.
Would Tutt have been convicted of murder if the prosecutors had sought the death penalty? Who knows? One thing is certain, however, even if he had been sentenced to face the executioner that day never would have come. And that's true whether the state's death penalty had been repealed or not.
New Jersey didn't have the stones to carry out the death sentences handed down by its capital case juries since 1976. So there was no point in the state having capital punishment.

Bitter Springs is a serene palm-fringed thermal pool within the national park, 3km from Mataranka along the sealed Martin Rd. The almost unnatural blue-green colour of the 34°C water is due to dissolved limestone particles.

Water birth in Germany
Comments (5)
there is no facility in place at LRMC to do a water birth. The labor rooms only have showers. If you're looking into a natural birth, take a look at giving birth off base. The Germans are really into minimal intervention with birthing.
I have known a few ladies who have had water births at St. Johannis or with a homebirth
I'd speak directly with the Tricare office. The Tricare office in the Ramstein clinic have always been pretty knowledgeable and have always given me correct information.
I know when we were doing fertility testing here in Germany, the German RE's office couldn't bill Tricare for DH's sperm analysis since he could get it done at a MTF. We needed a more in depth one than LRMC did so we had to pay for that OOP.
Please let us know what ends up happening
larelkelly, if you find out can you please let us know? I would like to know as well.

But they do not tell one key step you must take before making every single trade. If you don't do this, you will lose money. And this step goes against the whole concept of online trading. Furthermore, it is not mentioned in the instruction, the tutorial, the trading page, or anywhere on their website. So how would you know. And if you don't, you will lose lots of money and when you complain they will blame it on you without refunding you.
This key step is that you must call Etrade before making ANY foreign trade when starting with US dollars. They don't tell you this in advance, and it means that Etrade Global Trading is using deceptive adveristing when they say their system allows you to fully manage your account online. Stay away from Etrade!!
Did they even consider that people who use Etrade to trade in foreign markets may actually be in the foreign market and it would be difficult to call the US? Even so, why wouldn't they just tell users up front: "You must call!"
So I wanted to trade in several German stocks. Per Etrade's "step-by-step instructions". I checked each security to see if they were tradable before converting Dollars to Euros. Of the 6 that I looked at, 5 let me see the quotes, but there was a message that the stock was not tradable and there was no "Buy" or "Sell" button. That's fine, I didn't expect Etrade to cover all stocks in that market. For the 6th one, however, there was a "Buy" and "Sell" button and I could preview my order, so I knew that this one was tradable. I then converted US$5000 to Euros and the Etrade system allow me to place the trade.
When I noticed that the securities didn't appear on my portfolio, I checked the status of the order and saw that it had been "Rejected". I called Etrade Customer Service and they told me that it had been rejected because they didn't trade in that security!! I asked why it would show as tradable and actually take my order, they said that I should call them before every single foreign trade to make sure a security is tradable. So sorry, too bad. I lose my currency conversions in and out. This is ridiculous as 1. they are marketing this as Easy Online Access to Fully Manage My Global Account and 2. there is no-where on the entire website that says I should call every time before making a Global Trade.
By the way, I've noticed that NOW they changed this security, and it comes up with a message saying it's not tradable if you try to place an order. Doesn't this prove that the system tells you and that my situation was a flaw in the system. At the very least, shouldn't they refund my loss and warn users "Before converting currency, you must call Etrade to verify that Etrade trades in that security." This warning does not exist.
I have emailed and talked to Customer Support reps as well as the manager Richard Ikeh and they say that somehow this is my fault. I should have known to call them before exchanging currency. Huh!?!?! If the system lets you place orders on some securities and not others, and the system is marketed as a completely online system, why would I think I need to call?? And what if I'm overseas anyway??
Now after currency exchange costs and the depreciation of the Euro, my $5000 is worth $4500. They lost a 10+ year customer with assets of $100K-$400K over a measly $500.
Thinking back at this transaction, I think about what I would have done differently and given their instructions, the way the system works, and the marketing, I don't think I would have done it any differently. But if they had warnings, correct instructions, or a system that works, this problem wouldn't have happened. So doesn't that mean that they are at fault.
Bad system, deceptive advertising, and inadequate warnings make for a bad combination. If anyone else has had a similar experience please contact me so we can talk about options.

Posted from the new ixda.org
For those with short memory spans:
I designed mobile applications in the pre-iPhone world. It was painful and
discouraging. The release of the iPhone has changed the "mobile value chain"
forever (I doubt Google's Android or the Palm's WebOS would have gained much
traction, let alone seen the light of day in an iPhone-less market). Even if
that were the only thing to have come out of the iPhone's release - and it
isn't, by a long shot - that would be enough for me.
Mmmm... this reminds me of something... the start of another OS war?
My 2c worth - I have had Macs all my working life and remember the
old OS flame wars back in the '90s (yes, I'm an old stager!)
I own the latest macBook Pro yet don't have an iPhone. My Nokia 6650
works fine; has for some time. Just came back from a conference (UX
Australia) and still didn't get a good BUSINESS case for owning one
from any of the many Mac and iPhone toting attendees! However I love
them - just don't want to spend a motza for the privilege (here in
Australia data plans are ridiculously expensive and the phone itself
is over $1,000 to own - my last one was free on quite a cheap plan).
There will be people who love them and depend on them- that is my
main worry. I'd prefer NOT to be as connected and contactable when
it suits me - to the point I don't take my laptop to conferences so
I don't get bugged by work while I'm away - they shouldn't need my
hand to hold every day and if they do I don't know how they got hired
in the first place :-)
Which brings me back to- via a tortuous route - to the original "all
iPhones are crap" kind of argument I get from paranoid Apple haters
(who also often say iTunes is the Devil BTW!). They often put up with
their own often disappointing choices and dig themselves into holes
defending them. Thus the all Apple stuff MUST be crap roundabout.
We've had the OS wars - Microsoft won the software war through the
conservative nature of corporates who forced decisions on the general
punter, also mainly conservative not knowing what else to do. Apple
won the hardware war due to doing what they know best - complete
integration of the hardware/software micro-economies with the Mac and
its iLife suite, iPods and now iPhones. I can only see Apple
continuing on its upward path, and Microsoft being distracted by such
oddities as the Surface! ;-)
Apple, through the iPhone, has changed the nature of mobile
communication and commerce - get over it Apple haters ;-) TFIC
Seems as if we got some reali IPhone fans here huh? :)
With regards to my friend:
It dropped out of his hands and fell to the ground. No one ran it
over with a truck :)
Let me remind you that in Denmark we chance mobile phones each 6
months due to our contracts. Its not rare at all to change a mobile
phone that often here. I can obviously not make a general statement,
and I purely write what I experience.
If the IPhone was so amazing to use, why did those I know change to
NOKIA after the 6 month period? They could simply get another phone,
renew the contract and carry on using IPhone. Yet they did not. I
guess I will have to get one myself, before making you guys upset ;)

Drug case ends in plea dealJune 24,2013WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A woman who admitted to selling heroin and Oxycontin from her home a year ago to undercover informants will do 30 days on the prison work crew and then enter intensive substance abuse treatment.
Ashley Blanchard, 20, now a resident of Springfield, struck a plea agreement Friday that saw her plead guilty to two felony counts of a sale of heroin and sale of a narcotic resulting in a one- to five-year sentence that was almost entirely suspended so that she can participate in drug treatment.
Vermont Assistant Attorney General Evan Meenan told the court that cooperating individuals working with the Vermont Drug Task Force had gone to Blanchards residence in Chester in February and March of last year and bought drugs from her in the mud room of her home after first arranging the transactions over a series of text messages.MORE IN This Just In

text: Newcastle Kayak Tours. As the world's largest export coal port, Newcastle has a genuine working harbor. It's fascinating to watch the huge freighters as they line up beyond the harbor in the open sea, come through the heads, fill up with coal, and depart. Since the steelworks closed down in 1999, the harbor has opened up to visitors and is lined with smart apartments, hotels, and restaurants. For a close-up look at the giant ships and smaller boats, hop into a kayak for a guided excursion with Newcastle Kayak Tours. The two-hour (A$45) blue tour is the easiest and most popular—it begins at Dog Beach (so named because dogs are allowed), skirts past Queen's Wharf, and then meanders up Throsby Creek and past Newcastle Marina. Limited to 12 paddlers, the tour takes in all the highlights, and you may even be fortunate enough to spot dolphins. Longer and more challenging tours are also available. New Castle, NSW, 2300. 0468/929152. www.newcastlekayaktours.com.au.

Do you ever feel like you are drowning in coupons? There are so many and you are so far behind in organizing them, but you don't want to stop getting new ones because you may miss that BIG deal? That is where I am today!! I have discovered I am a COUPON HOARDER! The more I try to organize, the more unorganized I feel! So…here is my plan:
Step One: Only cut out the ones that I KNOW I want to use. No matter what sale I find…I want to use a few of my high value coupons on items that my family uses everyday! Those are the ones I am cutting! I am not going to file them in the ever growing binder. I am going to clip them together and just place them in the front of my binder. That way…everytime I open my binder they are there in the "wrong" place to remind me to use them. All the other coupons that I reasonably think I will use are going in the back of my binder until I have nothing better to do than clip and sort!
Step Two: I am going to purge my coupons! I have several that I have saved "just in case" I find a good price. I have TOO MANY COUPONS! I need to not be a coupon hoarder! I have a group of ladies that share coupons at church! They are getting all of these extras!
Step Three: Repeat! This happens to me ALL THE TIME. I am, in fact, a coupon hoarder! So…when I start to feel like my binder zipper is going to bust…I will repeat this process and not feel guilty about giving away coupons that I may someday use.
