SHOTZ! is a theatrical pressure cooker that every month gives six groups two weeks to write, two weeks to rehearse, two hours to tech, and two chances to perform all-new short plays every first Monday of the month at the Kraine Theater in the East Village. Unified by three common criteria, each collection of plays captures a variety of perspectives around each month's theme.

Dry Garlic Ribs-Canadian Chinese Style
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 2 hrs
This is the recipe for the true Canadian-Chinese type of ribs very popular around Ontario, Canada. You can't find these state side, unless you have this recipe!! Having grown up on the canadian border near Cornwall, Ontario in a town named Massena, NY, most of my relatives were from the canadian side so we crossed the border frequently and ate at the many chinese restaurants there. These are very sweet, sticky and delicious! You can use babyback pork ribs, country style pork ribs. This also turns out great using beef ribs, too. I've even used this recipe to cook boneless, skinless chicken in...it's just that good. Very simple ingredients, but don't let that fool you!! You'll see! I also find that you don't have to parboil them like some folks do..I cook them right in the sauce in the oven...gives them more flavor.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 -5 lbs pork spareribs, cut into individual pieces
- 1 1⁄2 cups water
- 1 1⁄2 cups dark brown sugar
- 4 1⁄2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 -6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons dry mustard
- Have your butcher cut the rack of ribs the long way down the middle, then you can cut them between the bones into small pieces.
- Place the ribs into a shallow baking pan in a somewhat single fashion.
- Combine the water, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic and dry mustard into a small saucepan.
- Heat the sauce until the brown sugar is dissolved and the mustard isn't floating on the surface.
- Pour the sauce over the ribs in the shallow pan.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350* for about an hour.
- Remove the foil and stir the meat.
- Allow to cook 45 minutes more or longer, stirring every 20 minutes so the sugars don't burn, until the meat is very tender.
- We love this served over rice, but can be used just as is on the plate!
Most Helpful
What we get in Northwestern Ontario are called Dried Bon Bon Ribs from some great Chinese Restaurants here. These were not even close. Sorry, did not care for these at all.
I made to recipe but I used country style ribs. Very good. I will make this one again.
First off: The guys said these ribs tasted just like the ribs you would get from our local Chinese food restaurant. My neighbour thought it was a honey garlic sauce I used and I quickly explained that there was no honey used in this process so I'm not sure if that was a good thing or not but she loved the recipe!

Recent reviews
Outstanding 4.6 /5 from 89 reviews
We extended our stay so this is my second review in a few days. We love this hotel. We have noted that the beds are inconsistent. Some are very comfortable and some are a little hard. Also, some double rooms have double beds and some have twin beds. Some rooms have windows, others have balconies, and 3 have access to a lovely large balcony with room for 3 tables. If you book long enough in advance, you can be more specific about your requirements. We also had one family roo. With a double bed and a twin for the Child. The restaurant downstairs doesn't open until 7:00 or 7:30 but there is a lovely family restaurant called Chirrbirri with better prices just down the street that opens earlier.
This is our second stay here. The view from the countryside rooms is lovely. I would not recommend the street side rooms where we stayed the last time because they are very noisy as people leave the restaurant downstairs and the sound of their voices bounces off of the walls of the lovely medieval city. That staff cod not be more attentive. Without exception, every person. At the desk has helped us choose our itinerary, recommended lovely abbeys to visit, gotten us restaurant bookings, and helped us replace a parking g ticket that we washed in a pocket. We live this place and plan to stay her again.
The terrasse outside room with its fantastic view was a pleasant extra to our stay

Single DIN: 1 DIN dimensions will work with all single DIN installation kits we have to offer. Single DIN radios are the most common size for after-market stereos.
Single DIN slot with flip-out screen: The DIN stereo includes a retractable, flip-out screen. Before purchasing, make measurements to be sure there is no interference with dash accessories such as A/C vents or shift levers.
Single DIN slot with a larger face: Standard single DIN size, but the display is larger then the standard single DIN size. Due to the nature of the larger face, problems may arise when installing in particular vehicles. These stereos are great for single DIN slots where you want a larger screen.
1.5 DIN: This size is very uncommon in vehicles, however this size opening is most commonly found in Chrysler and Chevrolet vehicles.
Double DIN: Approximately 4-inches in height, this size is becoming more common every year. Prior to 2000, this size was typically only found in Japanese vehicles such as those made by Honda or Toyota. Now, it is becoming more popular for many vehicles to be fit with a Double DIN opening.
Detachable / Removable faceplate security: The most common anti-theft feature. It allows you to take the faceplate with you, thus disallowing operation, which deters theft.
Security Codes: Mainly a feature in high end video units which do not have a detachable face / screen. Once the unit is uninstalled (or stolen), a security code (or PIN) is required upon reinstallation. Though you no longer have your unit after the theft, the thief also does not have your security code, which makes the unit useless. The hope is the thief knows which units have security codes and he/she chooses not to steal your unit because of the security code.
Ghost technology: This is not commonly used, but can be found primarily in a select number of 2004-2005 head units. It creates an illusion that no unit is installed by appearing completely black when turned off. Potential thieves may steer clear because it appears as though no head unit is installed.
Anti-theft covers: Similar to ghost and hiding faces because they only create an illusion that the face/unit is not in place.
ESN: Stands for Electronic Serial Number. Allows the disabling of the radio and allows tracking if it is stolen.
Some manufacturers display peak power ratings on the face of their products to increase the appeal to consumers. The RMS power rating is more accurate, and we recommend using it for product comparison.
Dot-Matrix Text Display: A simple display which uses dots in specific illuminated color(s) to light up and form letters or numbers that are displayed on the receiver.
Graphic or Motion Display: Typically found in mid to high-end receivers and give your text information and receiver more life by adding motion, backgrounds, or multiple colors to your display. There are types of graphic displays such as 3D Graphic, Motion, and OEL (Organic Electroluminescent) displays. They can range from one color to full color displays and typically allow you to select from one of many built-in animations, background images, screensavers or other graphics to enhance your experience and add an extra bit of personality to your system. Some units also come with software that allow you to load your own customizable pictures or animations.
LCD Monitor Display: Can be as small as 2" or as large as 10". Some LCD displays are motorized for angle adjustment. LCD monitors display full motion video playback as well as your standard text such as track status, radio station information and more depending on the receiver's features.
Multi-Color: When more than one color is on the display, for example one part of the text is white, while the other part is blue.
Variable-Color: The display colors can be changed by the user. If the default color of text/display is blue for example, the user can change the settings to where the color turns to red. Variable color displays are typically described in detail in the item's description.
TFT-LCD Display: In-dash receivers with a video screen that display multiple colors and often times video such as DVD, navigation or other video sources.
This rating applies to both external car amplifiers, as well as the amplifiers inside of in-dash stereos.
RCA Composite Inputs
These are your typical red, white, and yellow RCA composite cables that are common among devices with audio and video inputs. The red and white cables are dedicated for audio. The red cable is for the right channel and the white is for the left channel. The yellow cable is specifically for the video signal. Because this type of auxiliary cable contains 2 channels of audio, it will support stereo sound.
This is commonly referred to as a mini-jack or a headphone jack. It is a 3.5mm plug that transfers audio only. There is a right and left audio channel on the plug which allows for stereo sound playback.
3.5mm AV Input
These plugs look similar to the common 3.5mm mini-jack, however they carry a third channel dedicated for video.
This means that an auxiliary input is possible, but only with the use of an optional accessory. These optional adapters will sometimes use the CD Changer port or other port on the back of a unit that might restrict the use of other expandability features. These accessories are typically sold separately.
Some in-dash head units are built-in with the navigation features, while others require an add on navigation box. Other navigation options include portable navigation units that you can take with you or attach to the dash of your vehicle.
If "Yes", then the aftermarket stereo is compatible with steering wheel remote controls. If an additional accessory is required for the steering wheel controls to work properly, a compatible piece will be listed.

If your looking for a dvd player for a low price this is the one. Good picture, easy install and looks great.Bluetooth works great. Cons is that it could use more settings for sound and more than 1 color illumination, but overall very good product. I'd recommend buying. It has 2 video outputs which i wanted so i could run 2 headrest monitors and works perfectly. Very satisfied.

I like this radio don't get me wrong. Having a DVD player and SD slot is pretty cool. But this head unit lacks in any type of anamations. All the backgrounds for the home page suck except one. The DVD player worked pretty s***ty because of the safety feature, I grounded the breaking wire though which made it work fine after that. Also there's barley any adio customization as far as EQ and what not. Bluetooth fors fine. No phone book access through the unit though. It's a nice unit but I'm sure there are better for the same price. If you are looking for simple, this is it.

I purchased this stereo back in May and have had nothing but problems with it. First, the listing said that I would receive and iPod cord with it and it never came. Often times when the stereo comes on the screen is blank and pixelated. The users manual that comes with it is pointless because it doesn't tell you about any of the settings except the screen calibration.

MIRACLE Hackathon | October 2015
MIRACLE is a European project which provides a data model to create an interoperable age-ratings and classification solution (Machine-readable and interoperable age classification labels in Europe). In essence, it would avoid the necessity for any adult to get familiar with the many different age-rating and classification systems whenever he/she wishes to restrict unsuitable content or choose suitable content for a child.
On the 19th and 20th of October, the MIRACLE project hosted a Hackathon which brought together 8 teams of experienced developers. The aim of the Hackathon was to showcase the use of the MIRACLE data model through an app or a service.
Martin Schmalzried from COFACE was a member of the jury, tasked with examining and selecting the winning entries. The winning entry was an application called SMILE which used face and voice recognition technology to estimate the age of a user. This technology is very promising as protecting younger children from harmful content is of utmost importance, especially with the upcoming virtual/augmented reality revolution.
The runner-up, Family Alert, was an application which enabled real-time parent/child interaction regarding authorization to view certain content/game/service. Encouraging discussions between parents and children over the suitability of content is of utmost importance, as it may trigger important conversations about sexuality, violence, racism, xenophobia, gender stereotypes and so forth, all of which are key in developing resilience to harmful online content.

Social networks are being used more and more bychildren. Over 20% of 9-12 year olds use Facebook and 38% are using online socialnetwork tools. This raises concerns revolving around the protection of privacyand private data, cyber bullying, and contact with strangers and exposure toinappropriate content.
There are a number of basic recommendationsthat help in addressing these issues:
1. Parents should promote a healthy and balancedlifestyle before focusing on the "technical" aspects about the use ofnew technologies and accessing social networks. A healthy life balance initself reduces the risks of children being harmed online.
2. Parents and adults should practice what theypreach since many adults themselves spend hours in front of screens and set abad example for their children.
3. Parents should also make the most out ofavailable tools to protect their children from advertising and inappropriatecontent.
4. Companies such as online social networkproviders should implement "easy fixes" which benefit everyone viameasures such as systematic encryption of private data or a high privacy bydefault setting.
5. Companies should also enhance user controlover privacy features such as the access of applications to phone book contactsand the likes.
6. Finally, more awareness raising needs to bedone around the features of social networks and how these work in order toreduce misuse or abuse of these features (for instance, the "like"button and the spread of spam).
As regards children, they require specificattention. Children are considered to be vulnerable users and as such, shouldbe entitled special protection measures online and offline.
Services and products (devices) offered tochildren need to be age-appropriate and must be at the forefront of businessconcerns. So far, smartphones and tablets have a single interface designed foradults but used by children.
The role of family organisations, includingCOFACE, is not only to lobby companies and public authorities to create a saferonline environment for children but also to educate and raise awareness of bothparents and children on the positive use of new technologies.

Steve Narang, MD, a pediatrician, hospitalist, and the then-CMO at Banner Health's Cardon Children's Medical Center in Phoenix, was attending a leadership summit where all of Banner's top officials were gathered. It was his third day in his new job.
Banner's President, Peter Fine, gave a presentation in the future of healthcare and asked for questions. Dr. Narang stepped up to the microphone, asked a question, and made remarks about how the organization needed to ready itself for the changing landscape. Kathy Bollinger, president of the Arizona West Region of Banner, was struck by those remarks. Less than two years later, she made Dr. Narang the CEO at Arizona's largest teaching hospital, Good Samaritan Medical Center.
His hospitalist background was an important ingredient in the kind of leader Dr. Narang has become, she says.
"The correlation is that hospitalists are leading teams; they are quarterbacking care," Bollinger adds. "A good hospitalist brings the team together."
Physicians with a background in hospital medicine are no strangers to C-suite level positions at hospitals. In April, Brian Harte, MD, SFHM, was named president of South Pointe Hospital in Warrenville Heights, Ohio, a center within the Cleveland Clinic system. In January, Patrick Cawley, MD, MBA, MHM, a former SHM president, was named CEO at the Medical University of South Carolina Medical Center in Charleston.
Other recent C-suite arrivals include Nasim Afsar, MD, SFHM, an SHM board member who is associate CMO at UCLA Hospitals in Los Angeles, and Patrick Torcson, MD, MMM, FACP, SFHM, another SHM board member, vice president, and chief integration officer at St. Tammany Parish Hospital in Covington, La.
Although their paths to the C-suite have differed, each agrees that their experience in hospital medicine gave them the knowledge of the system that was required to begin an ascent to the highest levels of leadership. Just as important, or maybe more so, their exposure to the inner workings of a hospital awakened within them a desire to see the system function better. And the necessity of working with all types of healthcare providers within the complicated hospital setting helped them recognize—or at least get others to recognize—their potential for leadership, and helped hone the teamwork skills that are vital in top administrative roles.

Record numbers of baby seals born on North German islands
DPA/The Local · 1 Mar 2016, 10:26
Published: 01 Mar 2016 10:26 GMT+01:00
- Two sperm whales wash up on German coast (11 Jan 16)

- What's killing all the North Sea seals? (15 Oct 14)
Up to the 16th century, Germanic fishermen had a heart of stone when they brought the North Sea grey seal to near-extinction, seeing them as competitors for the precious fish in the area.
But the animal is more than just beady eyes and furry flippers. They never surrendered to the human menace and waited for centuries for the chance to reclaim their territory.
Until 1967 to be exact, when the species first reappeared in German waters around the island of Amrum. Roughly 30 years later, the first infant seal was born on Helgoland.

Ever since, grey seals have been busily reclaiming their former empire. Last year alone, 247 pups saw the light of day and felt the salty breeze of the Northern sea.
This year counts 317 newborns, which is "an absolute record" according to Helgoland seal expert Rolf Bäbel.

The cubbing season lasts from November through February, but seal lovers shouldn't worry: the pups are born with thick fur to protect them from the icy winds of the North Sea's cold season.
Naturally more and more German tourists feel drawn by the squealing cuteness and have been making their way up to the islands.
But there's a warning from the expert about getting too close.
"The female seals are aggressive about protecting their children", says Bäbel.
With reason - who wouldn't want to kidnap and cuddle with one of these little pups?

Amazing Work!!!
Amazing just amazing being a voice for this and watching it come to life it was really well done. Now knowing and watching the story only reason its an 8 is the story was a little like a smack in the face WTF moment but all and all i love it.
I liked it.
Paper flash is cool, and the soundtrack was fitting. I am confused by the story, but it was entertaining.
I love the way you avoided lip sync. Story is awkward (wtf?!), do they give you a topic or did you come up with it all by yourself? I need to know these things :|
It wasn't my intention to avoid lip sync. Lip sync wouldn't fit the style.
I've edited the author comments with a little more explanation of the assignment.
if you still have questions, feel free to PM me at any time ;).
I enjoyed it.
The animation itself wasn't spectacular, but I felt it suited the style. A bit more movement and change may have been better. The story was nice though it was a bit short and ended quite abruptly. I enjoyed the whole product, and these are the only things I'll really point up to your attention as needing improvement.
What IS this?
Um.... wut?

PTC Council eyes bigger slice of hotel-motel tax
Today, if you check into a motel, hotel or conference center in Peachtree City, on top of your room bill you will pay a 6 percent lodging tax.
The Peachtree City Council Thursday night will consider raising that to as much as 8 percent, plus taking a bigger cut of the tax.
The prospect of the council taking a bigger slice of the hotel/motel tax is being eyed uneasily by the city's Convention and Visitors Bureau, midway through its fiscal year, which would see less money going directly to it.
"We're not trying to take money away from the CVB," Mayor Don Haddix said at a workshop meeting Tuesday night. "This would just give the council more flexibility for the future."
Under the present arrangement, the 6 percent tax gets split three ways. The city's general fund gets a third — or 2 percent — of the tax while the CVB gets two-thirds — or 4 percent. Of that 4 percent, the city's Airport Authority then gets a sliver of that, about eight-tenths of 1 percent.
The council — operating under a new state law that allows more flexibility in setting and distributing the tax — wants to increase its share to half, necessitating less direct money for the CVB and the Airport Authority. The council indicated it would pass through an equivalent amount to the tourism board to make up for CVB's lost tax income.
Discussions Tuesday night mostly stayed away from notions of increasing the tax from its current 6 percent rate. Instead, the bulk of the talk was about the size of the tax pie slices.
Based on staff estimates, the change in percentages would add about $130,000 to council coffers, while taking away the same amount from the CVB and Airport Authority.
The topic has been added to the Thursday night agenda for a council vote.

The US financial markets regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission, last month said it would delay plans to require firms to file their quarterly and annual reports within 60 days of their financial period closings, rather than 75 days under current regulations.
The 60-day reporting requirement was due to come into force next year.
Although originating from the US, Sarbanes-Oxley affects UK companies that are listed on the main US stock exchanges.
Gartner has warned that the Sarbanes-Oxley regulations still pose significant challenges for corporate IT departments leaving no room for complacency.
IT challenges include verifying that information held within disparate systems worldwide is correct; and that controls are in place to prevent staff accessing unauthorised information. Firms will also need to show an audit trail of changes made to IT systems.
"For the 2005 budgets IT people should consider the technology necessary to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley," said French Caldwell, vice-president and director at the compliance service of Gartner.
He added that the technology needed to comply - to manage records and monitor business activity, business processes and corporate performance - could give firms a return on investment.
"[The technology] can decrease the storage you need and litigation costs may go down as you have an audit trail for everything you do."
The European Commission published a proposed directive on auditing earlier this year that has serious implications for IT.

The rapid growth in U.S oil production has surprised many investors all over the world. The liquid black gold has become a source of fascination. U.S. oil production has snatched away the attention from GCC region. According to the Department of Energy, U.S. oil imports will be less than the domestic oil production whereas this production is expected to be more than Saudi Arabia's oil production by 2020. Given that, every investor wants to benefit from U.S. oil and gas industry prospects.
To do that, one must identify the most promising bet out of the many players of the industry and invest some part of his portfolio in that stock. There are many opportunities; ranging from exploration to refining. I have identified one of the most promising stocks of oil and gas industry which is fundamentally strong and is currently available at a good price in the stock market: Helmerich & Payne (NYSE:HP).
The industry dynamics are changing and well designs are becoming more complex. These changes have increased the demand for high performance rigs that can carry out daunting tasks. As the demand for high quality rig increases and shale gas gets more visibility, Helmerich & Payne growth prospect become better. Helmerich & Payne has the world's highest quality rig fleet that remains in very high demand. It is considered the "Best of Breed" and HP charges premium day rates for these rigs. As Hans Christian Helmerich, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of HP, stated:
"Continuing to build the industry's youngest and most capable fleet not only positions us well going forward, but it also -- it allowed us to weather the turbulence we saw in the second half of last year. We are able to maintain our industry lead in terms of both activity and margins"
There are few facts that give HP an edge over its peers.
Long Term Contracts - Company's Edge
As of January 31, 2013, the company has 296 land rigs in U.S., 29 international land rigs and nine offshore platform rigs. In addition, HP is scheduled to complete another 5 new FlexRigs which will bring the company's total fleet of 330 land rigs and 299 FlexRigs. The five Flexrigs in the pipeline are already under long-term contracts with customers. It is expected that the company will build and operate three additional FlexRigs in U.S. with two exploration and production companies. The three rigs will also be built under multi-year term contracts and will boost revenue and profits of the company. These long term contracts provide sustainability to the earnings of the company and promise revenue growth for the future.
Premium Rates
The demands for the rigs have increased over time, especially for the high performance HP rigs. This demand induced shortage of rigs has allowed the company to charge premium prices to their customers, without curtailing the demand at all. Despite the premium charges, the HP rig utilization rate has not declined significantly. The rig utilization rate was reported at 85% in 4Q12 and 83% in 1Q13.
Financial Position
Looking at the numbers, one can easily say that the company has a strong fundamental backbone and its Financials look good. Earnings growth is slow but that seems to be an issue with the general industry. However, the price-to-earnings ratio is lower than the industry average and the PEG is favorably positioned. The overall risk of the industry is quite high, evident by high PEG, but HP's earnings growth visibility has lowered the uncertainty of the company's earnings.
I personally believe that the company should trade at a higher multiple than its peers due to the increasing numbers of long-term contracts for HP FlexRigs, which provides visibility of the future earnings.
In January, the company reported its record 1Q13 earnings and beat the analysts' expectation. The market unleashed bulls on the stock and HP reached its maximum close of USD 67.94, on 19th February 2013. Now, the investors have taken their hands off the stock and the stock trades at a price of USD 59.01.
Here is an overview of the earnings announcement of the company:
GLOBE NEWSWIRE -- Helmerich & Payne, Inc. reported record income from continuing operations of $159,611,000 ($1.48 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $844,572,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to income from continuing operations of $144,297,000 ($1.32 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $732,588,000 during the first fiscal quarter of 2012, and income from continuing operations of $149,606,000 ($1.39 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $829,447,000 during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012. Included in income from continuing operations for the first fiscal quarters of 2013 and 2012, and for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012, is income (after-tax) related to the sale of used drilling assets and investment securities of $0.08, $0.03 and $0.03 per diluted share, respectively. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was also reported at a record level of $159,603,000 ($1.48 per diluted share), compared to net income of $144,286,000 ($1.32 per diluted share) during the first fiscal quarter of 2012, and net income of $157,115,000 ($1.46 per diluted share) during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012.
Segment operating income for U.S. land operations was $234,388,000 for the first fiscal quarter of 2013, compared with $224,706,000 for last year's first fiscal quarter and $236,619,000 for last year's fourth fiscal quarter. As compared to the prior year's fourth fiscal quarter, the number of revenue days for the segment sequentially decreased by 208 to 21,743. The average rig revenue per day decreased by $285 to $28,040 during the first fiscal quarter of 2013, but the decline was mostly attributable to lower revenue from early termination fees during the first fiscal quarter. Also as compared to the prior year's fourth fiscal quarter, average rig expense per day for the segment increased by $14 to $12,634 during the first fiscal quarter, resulting in a $299 average rig margin per day decline to $15,406. The rig revenue and margin per day averages included $37 per day of early termination fees during the first fiscal quarter of 2013 as compared to $283 per day during the previous quarter. Rig utilization for the Company's U.S. land segment was 82% for this year's first fiscal quarter, compared with 91% for last year's first fiscal quarter and 85% for last year's fourth fiscal quarter. At December 31, 2012, the Company's U.S. land segment had 239 contracted rigs (including 161 under term contracts) and 54 idle rigs.
Valuation & Conclusion:
To better assess the company, I am sharing some key financials that I forecast. I calculated two fair values of the company based upon the current P/E and the average P/E of the peers. I believe that the company should be trading at a higher P/E than its peers due to the quality, demand and sustainability of its operations. So, rather than coming up with a subjective multiple, I have used the average multiple of the peers to calculate the second fair value. The P/E multiples of Patterson - UTI Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:PTEN), Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR) and Pioneer Energy Services Corp. (NYSE:PES) are used to calculate the average P/E for the analysis.
Company's earnings and EPS are forecast till 2014 to calculate the fair price of the company in each year. Current P/E and Average P/E are used to calculate two different justified prices each year. Every calculated price is higher than the current market price and offers great capital return potential for the investors. For 2013, current P/E results in an upside price potential of 18% whereas the average P/E displays a humungous potential price return of 98%. I strongly believe that sooner or later HP's multiple will fall in line with the peers as the market realizes this fact. Even if the market takes its time to correct the company's multiple, HP is still a great buy.
I'll rest my case with the following statement from Forbes:
In the case of Helmerich & Payne, Inc., the RSI reading has hit 29.6 - by comparison, the universe of dividend stocks covered by Dividend Channel currently has an average RSI of 49.7. A falling stock price - all else being equal - creates a better opportunity for dividend investors to capture a higher yield. Indeed, HP's recent annualized dividend of 0.60/share (currently paid in quarterly installments) works out to an annual yield of 1.01% based upon the recent $59.89

I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Given this morning's underwhelming earnings report by TNT and their resultant discussion of plans to divest struggling Brazilian and Chinese units, what do board members think? Personally, I wonder if we miscalculated jour strategy and jumped to swallow TNT whole when patience might have allowed us to obtain the business segments we really wanted on the cheap. It appears some entity or entities- I certainly hope not FDX- are going to acquire these key units in short order. Their investors conference is scheduled for March 25th and the announcement will be made then if not sooner. I'd be fascinated to know if UPS might be entitled to bid on those smaller divisions even thought the larger acquisition was nixed? If so, the break-up fee of $200M+ might have been worthwhile since the valuation of TNT's parts have decreased since the UPS acquisition activities caused such speculation. Thoughts?

Holding down a continuous beat is one of first things a drummer learns how to do. However, another crucial element of drumming is understanding how to utilize the cymbals. By incorporating cymbals into certain aspects of a song, a drummer has the ability to completely change the music's overall mood and tone. Within this section you'll find some of the top cymbal brands and types, allowing you to find exactly what you're looking for.
These days there is no shortage of superbly crafted cymbals, manufactured by well reputed and recognizable names. Companies like Sabian, Paste, Meinl and Zildjian are all trusted and respected throughout the drum world, thanks to their commitment and dedication to constructing incredible cymbals that are both durable and high in quality.
For a crash cymbal that explodes with astounding precision, the Zildjian K Kustom Hybrid Crash cymbal contains an innovative yet traditional surface that produces various tones depending on where the cymbal is played. Highly responsive and versatile, this cymbal is a great choice for both live shows and home studio recording. In the ride department, the Paiste 2002 24" Big Ride was made in conjunction with Alex Van Halen. Paiste has been a part of Alex Van Halen's unmistakable drum sound since 1983, and the 2002 Big Ride has a silky ping, along with a rich, full bodied sound that covers a massive array of dynamics.
Learning where to use cymbals in a song is an important step towards becoming a great drummer. For example, a crash cymbal has a loud but brief sound, so they're typically used for creating the occasional accent. Rides, on the other hand, shimmer with more sustain than crash cymbals, which makes them useful for maintain a steady rhythm. Of course, once you understand these fundamentals, you can then work towards creating your own signature style based on your unique set of influences and technique. And rest assured, you'll have no problem finding what you're looking for, right here.

Got to disagree with you Jen, I watched a few episode's of season 1 and hated Revolution. But that's my opinion, were all entiltiled to our own opinion. That's Democracy for ya.
on 08-10-2013 12:40 PM
Hi Alan,
Yeah, TBH it did take me a few episodes to get into it as it was slow to start, the other half got bored and decided not to watch it!
What type of shows do you like? I've just finished watching Ray Donovan, I also liked that however nothing I have watched recently compares to my ultimate fav... The Sopranos!

To be fair,yeah it took about 4 or 5 episodes for me to like the series,i was pretty much hating it at first,that Australian actress who was supposed to be British i hated with a passion,and Charlie's face looked like it had been slapped in every scene(still does really)
on 08-10-2013 12:54 PM
Hi Jen @Jenny-S
My fav's are usually most people's fav's. GoT, Blue Bloods, Boardwalk Empire. I loved the first episode of Blacklist. And excited about the Tunnel and Dracula.
I'm hear rumour's via different online forum's that VM could possibly be getting Sky Atlantic. Is this rumour true Jen. I hope not.
on 08-10-2013 01:16 PM
I agree Alan, the Tunnel looks interesting. As for Blacklist, I put it on the other night however I was busy doing other stuff so didn't watch it properly. I'm going to have to watch it again.
I haven't heard anything about Sky Atlantic going to Virgin Media, I see there is another thread on the Community relating to this. If anything was to happen in the future then it would get posted there.

Blizzard have released a new 'talent calculator' for forthcoming World of Warcraft expansion Wrath of the Lich King; the utility will help players find the new stuff being added with the add-on, and how to make the most of the new content.
The calculator will cover all the game's classes, and there will of course be a focus upon the new Death Knight class - and its related talent trees.
You can access the new talent calculator online, although we still don't know exactly when the expansion itself will arrive, beyond the ramping-up of coverage surrounding the new title.
More Lich King soon.

Longhorn Network's 5 New Shows: Why No One Will Watch Them
The amazingly awesome Longhorn Network, which will provide all the UT anyone could ever hope for, announced five new shows today.
And no one in their right mind will watch any of them.
Of course, the Longhorn Network is not designed to appeal to anyone in their right mind. It's designed for UT fanatics.
But even a UT fanatic would have a hard time tuning in to these programs:
Longhorn Legends - A roundtable discussion featuring coach Mack Brown and the three biggest stars of his Texas tenure: Ricky Williams, Vince Young and Colt McCoy.
To be sure, the idea of Mack Brown swapping bon mots with VY and Ricky Williams has some appeal. But we're guessing they shot a season's worth of shows in one day, and the only preparation Williams and Young did was read the quick paragraph provided to them pre-show highlighting the career of whichever Longhorn Legend was about to be discussed, of whom they had never heard. Colt McCoy, on the other hand, will no doubt have boned up for weeks just to refresh himself.
The Season: 2005 Texas Longhorns - A look back at the magical season that began with lofty expectations and culminated in a Rose Bowl triumph over USC and the 4th national championship in UT history.
Somehow this doesn't add "...and the only national championship in decades upon decades." We can't wait for the episodes on the Louisiana-Lafayette and Rice games.
Texas' Greatest Games - A countdown of the 10 best games in Longhorns football history, as selected by a blue ribbon panel of writers, former coaches & athletes.
A blue-ribbon panel? Why, that's the best kind!! They can find 10 games not in black and white, we hope.
Texas' Greatest Athletes - A countdown of the greatest athletes across all sports in UT history as selected by a blue ribbon panel of writers, former coaches & athletes.
Is it possible that UT actually put together two blue-ribbon committees? That's a lot of ribbon. We are positive the show will include information on which of these people earned a UT degree or not.
Traditions - A look at the history of some of the unique traditions of the University of Texas, including Bevo, Big Bertha, Smokey the Cannon, the World's Largest Texas Flag and the Hook 'em Horns hand sign.

A season's worth of shows means, we can only assume, full episodes on, say, Smokey the Cannon. "Riveting" doesn't begin to describe it. And how can they possibly squeeze everything about the Hook 'Em Horns hand sign into a mere 30 minutes? You're going to be leaving too much on the cutting-room floor, Longhorn Network!!
We can't wait for season two, especially Bevo VIII: The Turbulent Sixties.

Photographers are getting back to basics. Instead of using special effects and creative papers to make fanciful images, today's popular prints are sharp depictions of reality.
To achieve such an effect on an inkjet printer, enhance your slide, print or digital file with a computer imaging program's sharpening feature. Be careful, though, because it's possible to over-sharpen a picture, which makes its grain too prominent.
Accessories, called plug-ins, for imaging programs also help make clear inkjet prints. Nik Sharpener lets you sharpen pictures for specific sizes and viewing distances, and Genuine Fractals lets you make large prints from small files.
While you have your picture on the computer monitor, play with the contrast control. By exaggerating the difference between the light and dark areas, the picture looks sharper.
Remember that what you see on your computer monitor is not always an accurate representation of the print. The resolution on the monitor - 72 dots per inch (dpi) for Macs and 96 dpi for PCs - usually differs from the dpi on the printer. So keep practicing and make notes of the settings.
A photo-quality inkjet printer has a resolution of at least 2400 x 1200 dpi. Canon, Epson, Lexmark and Hewlett-Packard offer such printers. Plan to spend $500-$1,000 for a fast printer with excellent image quality. That said, if you have a good original picture and you use photo-quality inkjet paper, you may be pleased with printers in the $200-$250 price range.
Paper makes a real difference when it comes to making sharp inkjet prints. Look for heavyweight, high-gloss paper for long-lasting prints.
Also check out the archival quality of the paper you are considering. After you have taken all the steps to make a sharp inkjet print, you want it to be around for a while.
