Advice about wildcards in TXT records. Proposed change: Add a note in section 6.1.2 warning about the effect of wildcard TXT records on finding DKIM key records. 3. The issue of multiple occurrences of header fields that may only occur once. Proposed change: Add text to section 5.3 recommending that verifiers check that the message complies with specs, and that they not validate a non-compliant message. Add a new section 8.14 to the Security Considerations, explaining the attacks that can be done using this exposure. As John Levine noted, there is incorrect text in 18.104.22.168. Namespace. ,-- INFORMATIVE OPERATIONAL NOTE: Wildcard DNS records (e.g., *.bar._domainkey.example.com) do not make sense in this context and should not be used.

'-- Change to: ,== Wildcard DNS records (e.g., *.bar._domainkey.example.com) could be used for logging purposes. '== 3.6.1. Textual Representation t= Flags, ... There might be some informative text added to clarify repeated use of a tag-list identifiers, unlike tags, is allowed. It seems some domains create separate t=y and t=s entries rather than t=y:s, for example. 6.1.2. Get the Public Key ... Was: ,-- NOTE: The use of wildcard TXT records in the DNS will produce a response to a DKIM query that is unlikely to be valid [a] DKIM key record. This problem applies to many other types of queries, and client software that processes DNS responses needs to take this problem into account. '-- Change to: ,== NOTE: The use of wildcard TXT records in the DNS might be used for logging proposes, but its use is discouraged as it will have a detrimental effect on DNS caching. '== CHARTER FAIL: 8.14. Attacks Involving Addition of Header Fields Was: ,-- For example, a message with multiple From: header fields violates Section 3.6 of [RFC5322]. With the intent of providing a better user experience, many agents tolerate these violations and deliver the message anyway. An MUA then might elect to render to the user the value of the last, or "top", From: field. This may also be done simply out of the expectation that there is only one, where a "find first" algorithm would have the same result. Such code in an MUA can be exploited to fool the user if it is also known that the other From: field is the one checked by arriving message filters. Such is the case with DKIM; although the From: field must be signed, a malformed message bearing more than one From: field might only have the first ("bottom") one signed, in an attempt to show the message with some "DKIM passed" annotation while also rendering the From: field that was not authenticated. (This can also be taken as a demonstration that DKIM is not designed to support author validation.) To resist this specific attack the signed header field list can include an additional reference for each field that was present at signing. For example, a proper message with one From: field could be signed using "h=From:From:..." Due to the way header fields are canonicalized for input to the hash function, the extra field references will prevent instances of the cited fields from being added after signing, as doing so would render the signature invalid. The From: field is used above to illustrate this issue, but it is only one of > several fields that Section 3.6 of [RFC5322] constrains in this way. In reality any agent that forgives malformations, or is careless about identifying which parts of a message were authenticated, is open to exploitation. '-- Change to: ,== A message with multiple From: header fields violates Section 3.6 of [RFC5322]. With the intent of providing a better user experience, many agents tolerate these violations and deliver the message anyway. Any message containing multiple orig-date, from, sender, reply-to, to, cc, message-id, in-reply-to, and subject header fields will not produce a valid signature. See Section 5.3. Verification and presentation layers will not always process headers in the same order or confirm content synchronicity. Allowing multiple singleton header fields within a message to verify as having a valid DKIM signature enables trivial spoofing exploits not always remedied by use of h=from:from, for example. '== From: accounts(_at_)big-bank(_dot_)com (Displayed) From: accounts(_at_)mallory-bank(_dot_)com (Not Displayed) DKIM-Signature: d=mallory-bank.com... (signature valid when From: accounts(_at_)big-bank(_dot_)com not prefixed.) Users may expect DKIM messages from big-bank.com to be rejected when not signed by big-bank.com on the basis of ADSP or ISP policy. Unless multiple-singleton headers are prohibited from receiving DKIM pass results, then users are likely to believe a message with a prefixed From: accounts(_at_)big-bank(_dot_)com will be assumed to have been signed by big-bank.com. Use of h=From:From: would be controlled by mallory-bank.com, and not big-bank.com, which could simply use h=From. The primary use of DKIM was to serve as protection from phishing, where checking for multiple singleton header fields represents a trivial amount of overhead compared against signature validation. -Doug _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html

Remove Images Film Critique Shooting blanks Fred Durst's directorial debut goes limp August 21, 2008 Sorry Cube, to be a rapper-turned-actor you actually have to act. It's impossible to talk about movies without taking into consideration the influence of their directors. The "auteur" stratagem for categorizing and analyzing directors whose original work carries identifiable themes and methods for working with actors and shooting conditions has ingrained itself into everyday discussion. But there's a category of hack directors constantly being shoveled into Hollywood's readymade system whose lack of fundamental competency insults the director's job title with impunity. Such is the situation with Fred Durst, whose introduction into the Hollywood community comes as an exercise in remedial storytelling. Durst never settles on whether Curtis or Jasmine is the protagonist of the piece, and puts the audience in the tedious position of waiting for one character to finally establish his or her dominance. It's a waiting game that never pays off. It doesn't help matters that Ice Cube is allowed to carry on his trademark monotone hangdog delivery that drags down every scene he's in—and he's in a lot of scenes. The movie is ostensibly about members of an economically distressed American small town inspired by their local sports heroine to come together and make it the best place they can with the limited resources at hand. Nobody here has the common sense or motivation to look for a better life elsewhere. Everyone seems stuck in some naïve state of arrested development, with the possible exception of Coach Fisher (Matt Craven) who gets booted from the storyline to insure that Ice Cube can infect every bit of narrative space available. We get rah-rah community scenes in a church, in a Main Street bar and in the bleachers at football games, but there's never any signification of reality or inner life for any of the characters. When the locals come together to raise funds for their football team to travel to Florida to compete in the upcoming "Super Bowl" championships, even the large cash amounts being contributed seem out of sync with everything we've been led to believe about these characters. The Longshots is a movie with no regard for details. It's an idea for a movie that was passed off on someone with an idea about wanting to direct a movie. It's surprising that Keke Palmer fares as well as she does and a testament to her acting ability that she's able to elevate a movie that threatens to fall apart at any minute. If there's a lesson here, it's that you can and should judge whether or not to see a movie based on its director. Personally, I hope to never have to suffer through a film that gives its directorial credit to Mr. Durst. MTW |

Today we are exploring off-dry wines as part of the monthly virtual tasting event known as Wine Blogging Wednesday. This month's tasting is hosted by Beau over at Basic Juice.
My entry in this category is an Alsatian wine from one of the most famous producers in the region, Domaine Zind Humbrecht. The father and son operation has been in existence since 1959 when the marriage of the Zind and Humbrecht families brought together a passion for winemaking and some of the best land in Alsace under one roof. Leonard Humbrecht and his son Olivier (notable for being France's first Master of Wine) churn out a staggering number and variety of wines of exceptional quality from their various Grand Cru and name designated vineyards. The family has about 70 acres under cultivation, split among dozens of small vineyards which they have acquired over the years.
Zind Humbrecht keeps yields in these vineyards extremely low, sometimes half as much as the legally permissible tonnage for the appellation. This is helped by the fact that many of their vineyards are very difficult to work except by hand, having steep rocky slopes that permit only humans and horses to pass.
This wine is a single vineyard designate from the Heimbourg vineyard near Turckheim, a medieval village on the banks of the Fecht river. This parcel of grapes actually used to be considered part of the Grand Cru vineyard named Brand (also owned by the family) but was later delimited as separate by officials, and is now simply sold as "lieux-dits" or single vineyard designate. A rocky limestone strewn patch of grapes, the Heimbourg vineyard grows Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Gewurztraminer grapes.
Given a designation of Vendange Tardive, or "VT" to fans of Alsatian and German wines, the grapes for this wine were harvested late, and contribute a moderate sweetness to the wine that theoretically puts it more in the dessert wine category than it does in the off-dry category that I am supposed to be writing about.
Tasting Notes:
This wine is a medium yellow-gold color in the glass and wafts scents of honeysuckle and warm hay (and do I smell sunshine ?) into the nose. In the mouth it is silky and smooth with primary flavors of clover honey, vanilla, candied orange peel, and paraffin. Medium sweet (due to the late harvest), I found the wine lacking some acid balance and complexity to make it truly fantastic as opposed to just tasty. The wine finishes smoothly, though without profundity.
Food Pairing:
This wine is good as an aperitif wine or as a dessert wine. I had it paired with a lovely Fatted Calf's spiced torchon of foie gras on a caramelized ramp and white bourbon peach tartlette.
Overall Score: 9
How Much?: can be purchased these days for $100
This wine is available online.
Alder: I think this wine simply needs more aging. Four days later I found this wine had jumped in complexity and deliciousness (is that a word?) (Say, from a 92, to a 97) - wish you had been there to retaste.
I have two more bottles...think I should wait 3-5 years before opening the next one.
Caveat: I love Alsatian Gewürztraminer.
I met Oliver Humbrecht last month - he went through a selection of his wines and talked of the vineyards and his passion for bio-dynamic wine-making. Loads of tasting notes which I am in the middle of writing up for spittoon. None are cheap though, sadly.

"Hello Ladies" is a new comedy about singles in L.A. led by Stephen Merchant. The comedy premiered on Sun., Sept. 29, 2013 on HBO cable. HBO has released a free YouTube video, so even non-subscribers can view the series premiere of the comedy. Attached is a trailer of the series. To see the entire first episode, see HBO's You Tube video.
Merchant stars as a geeky tall guy named Stuart who has aspirations of being a ladies man in the competitive world of Hollywood celebrities. The series also stars Christine Woods, Nate Torrence and Kevin Seisman.
Stephen Merchant (Golden Globe winner as writer-executive producer of "The Office UK" and HBO's "Extras") debuts in his first lead role in the comedy which is sometimes awkward and uncomfortable but does provide some laugh-out-loud moments.
Stuart (Merchant) searches for the woman of his dreams amidst the dazzling nightlife of Los Angeles. He is a financially secure man with a good career and a nice car, but he has romantic aspirations that far exceed his looks or appeal. Stuart is tall (6'7") import from the UK who works as a web designer. He sees himself as a ladies man, but the ladies do not agree, snubbing him at every turn.
The awkward would-be ladies man enjoys camaraderie with his female tenant/roommate Jessica (Christine Woods -"Go On," "Perfect Couples") an unsuccessful actress with a web series who has an unstable relationship with her caddish Hollywood handsome agent. Stuart hangs around with Wade (Nate Torrence -"Get Smart," "She's Out of My League"), pining for his wife who has dumped him. Kives (Kevin Weisman -"Alias") is in a wheelchair but he uses disability to pick up women, a source of some uncomfortable humor. Guests on the show include Crista Flanagan, Jenny Slate, Sean Wing and Sarah Wright.
"Hello Ladies" was created by Stephen Merchant, Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg; executive producers, Stephen Merchant, Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg; co-executive producers, Danny Chun and Ron Weiner; producer, Dan Kaplow. To join the Twitter conversation use the hashtag #HelloLadies.

I honestly can't believe that I haven't posted this session from last fall, but better late than never I suppose. I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph this awesome couple and their adorable new puppy. Just before the shoot Mia called to let me know they were running late due to a slight wardrobe mishap, Bailey had chewed a hole in Daddy's shirt. Oh the wonderful joy's of a new puppy, but their cuteness always makes up for the bad things they do (like chewing up your favorite pair of Irregular Choice shoes). I had such a great time photographing Mia, Dexter, and Bailey, they are the cutest little family! Oh, and, if Mia looks familiar to any of you that would be because she was Miss Illinois USA 2007 and she truly is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the out.

Why do we work?
I work with high school students helping them figure out what to do after high school and beyond. We talk a lot about careers and what job they should get. In our conversations, I think the most common question that I get asked, is what I love about my job…or how did I find the job that I love. I turn the question back on them in a different way…"Why do we work?"
Answer: To support a lifestyle
Careers, we all strive to find the perfect career for ourselves. I find that most people seek first their career, and then find the lifestyle that suits the career. You want to be a doctor? Super–you now have nice cars, a large house, and lots of debt (forgive my generalization). The most common mistake that I see in people choosing their careers is that they seek first the job, and then the lifestyle. It should be the other way around!
If we refer to my previous post about the meaning of life, life is about relationships. It's not about careers or jobs. Our job is simply a way to get paid to support a lifestyle. If you love what you do, then it compliments your lifestyle of choice. I love interacting with people, clients, and working with technology–my lifestyle is built around this, thus I love my job. If I was a day trader (which I tried out for a quick spell…oh the stress!), I might have the money, and golly I enjoyed the work, but it didn't support the lifestyle that I wanted that included relationships with my friends. It was an amazing job, but it didn't support the lifestyle that I desired.
Where am I going with all of this? …I'm not trying to have people dropping their careers and starting new ones… I'm simply pointing out a tendency that we have to forget what life is all about. Don't worry about what job you get for the job…does it support the lifestyle you want to lead? …and yes, being a doctor can most certainly support a lifestyle that is desirable. I don't mean to rag on them–terribly sorry if that's how it sounded.
Careers. We all hear about them and how important they are, but do we really inspect why we have a job at all? We all desire a lifestyle. This lifestyle is determined by things that are important to you. I enjoy being able to take pictures with fancy cameras; for you it might be snowboarding. Whatever we find important in our lives affects our lifestyle and influences how much money we need to live the lifestyle we desire. We get that money from our job. That's pretty simple: we have a job to earn money to support our lifestyle.
Let's get practical for a moment. Yes?
Here's what I did…My financial planner suggested that I write down five or six, no more than seven, key aspects of my lifestyle that I desire. Once those are down, use them as a guide for my job/career. It's similar to what I was saying in my post about organization…mission statements are key. While this isn't a mission statement per-say, it is a practical tool to make sure that what I'm doing measures up.
So that's that.

A Brief History of the St. Bernard Rescue Dog
The canine's evolution from hospice hound to household companion
- By Jess Blumberg
- Smithsonian.com, January 01, 2008, Subscribe
Long before Beethoven drooled on the big screen, St. Bernard dogs were famous for an entirely different reason: saving lives. Since the early 18th century, monks living in the snowy, dangerous St. Bernard Pass—a route through the Alps between Italy and Switzerland—kept the canines to help them on their rescue missions after bad snowstorms. Over a span of nearly 200 years, about 2,000 people, from lost children to Napoleon's soldiers, were rescued because of the heroic dogs' uncanny sense of direction and resistance to cold. Since then, and through much crossbreeding, the canines have become the domestic St. Bernard dogs commonly seen in households today.
Hospice Hounds
At a little more than 8,000 feet above sea level sits the Great St. Bernard Pass, a 49-mile route in the Western Alps. The pass is only snow free for a couple of months during the summer and has been a treacherous route for many travelers throughout history. In order to help struggling trekkers, an Augustine monk named St. Bernard de Menthon founded a hospice and monastery around the year 1050.
Sometime between 1660 and 1670, the monks at Great St. Bernard Hospice acquired their first St. Bernards—descendants of the mastiff style Asiatic dogs brought over by the Romans—to serve as their watchdogs and companions. (The earliest depiction of the breed was in two paintings done by well-known Italian artist Salvatore Rosa in 1695.) Compared to St. Bernards today, these dogs were smaller in size, had shorter reddish brown and white fur and a longer tail.
At the turn of the century, servants called marroniers were assigned to accompany travelers between the hospice and Bourg-Saint-Pierre, a municipality on the Swiss side. By 1750, marroniers were routinely accompanied by the dogs, whose broad chests helped to clear paths for travelers. The marroniers soon discovered the dogs' tremendous sense of smell and ability to discover people buried deep in the snow, and sent them out in packs of two or three alone to seek lost or injured travelers.
Life-Saving Work
The canines made rescue excursions on the St. Bernard Pass for the next 150 years. Often the dogs would find buried travelers, dig through the snow and lie on top of the injured to provide warmth. Meanwhile, the other dog would return to the hospice to alert the monks of the stranded pilgrim. The system became so organized that when Napoleon and his 250,000 soldiers crossed through the pass between 1790 and 1810, not one soldier lost his life. The soldiers' chronicles tell of how many lives were saved by the dogs in what the army called "the White Death."
Although in legend casks of liquor were strapped around the dogs' collars to warm up travelers, no historical records exist that document this practice. But another legend was very real: famous St. Bernard, Barry, who lived in the monastery from 1800-1812, saved the lives of more than 40 people. In 1815, Barry's body was put on exhibit at the Natural History Museum in Berne, Switzerland, where it remains today.
Between 1816 and 1818, the winter snowstorms at St. Bernard Pass were particularly severe, and many dogs died in avalanches while doing rescue work. As a result, the St. Bernard breed living at the hospice came close to extinction. However, the breed was replenished two years later with similar animals from nearby valleys.
All in all, the St. Bernard rescue dogs were credited with saving the lives of more than 2,000 people until the last documented recovery in 1897 when a 12-year-old boy was found nearly frozen in a crevice and awakened by a dog.

My Swiss friends advised me when I was just a child that the Saint Bernard Dogs carried a flask around their necks to warm the victims and possibly save their lives; when they found them in the snow. This article declares it a myth. Is there no way to document it? I would like to know since this was my belief for so long.

Lucy, my girl is a Saint! Best thing ever. People should be know how wonderful St. Bernards are but are hairy and sheds a lot and the ear flushing is non stop but SOOOOO worth it.

But it's fine now, She dosen't want to come inside no more.

A fine article. However during my BSC (Hons) research I have found reference in books writen in 1829.
The only reference in this book to the St bernard is that the dogs of the St Bernard pass were actually Alpine Spaniels. Further reading suggested that Due to accidents the breed nearly became extinct, so they tried to engineer another breed in 1830 that they thought would fair better in the snows. The current St Bernard is believed to be a cross of the Alpine Spaniel and the Newfoundland. Before 1847 however, a pestilence struck the Alpine Spaniel and the breed was wiped out. Hence the current St Bernard took on the traditions of the Search and Rescue and the adopted the name St Bernard. The famous Barry at the Natural History Museum Berne, was modified in 1926 to resemble the current St Bernard.
The link above tells you far more information and started my interest in the history of the Alpine Spaniel and The St Bernard.
See what you make of it.

I own a ST Bernard dog is name is Brandy I need to know alot about ST Bernards
Posted by Dylan young on February 24,2009 | 12:54 PM
Dogs throughout human history have been our companions, workmates, protectors and part of the family. Although in this article the St. Bernard breed as a part of the rescue effort on the pass has been replaced by helicopters. Helicoptors cannot be used during severe weather and with the dwindling oil reserves in the far (not so) future St. Bernards may be called again to aid in rescue efforts.

is it true the st bernard dogs carried a barrel of whisky around their necks or is that all heresay in cartoon format apparently alcohol is not good in cases of hypothermia!!!

I am a St.Bernard owner,and found your article very intertesting.While some people pine to go to warm places in the winter it is my dream to see the swiss alps where my St. Bernard orginaited from. She is like my blood pressure medication.Your article was very informing. An intertesting read.

In 2004 I was shipped via SwissAir a St. Bernard born at the monastery. She resembles Barry, lean and healthy. American's breed for their idea of beauty alone and thus many health issues continue through the breed. The new Barry foundation preserves the Saints. I am grateful for your article.

I enjoyed this article, it provided wonderful facts about these curageous animals, I call friends.
Posted by Kathy Holdcroft on February 12,2008 | 04:25 AM
I am so happy to hear the full story on the St. Bernard, and on the interesting people instrumental in creating this breed for such a beneficent specific purpose. Would we could all be as focused on kindness in solving problems in the world.

Wonderful story! Thank you for the enlightenment.
Posted by Joanne Husak on January 22,2008 | 04:14 PM
This was one of the most interesting short articles I have read in any magazine. It corrected many erroneous ideas I had about these dogs. The only point that is not emphasized sufficiently in this article is how friendly they are to strangers.
Posted by John Nasou on January 20,2008 | 01:55 PM
This article I found while searching more information I found to be very disturbing, http://www.aapn.org/stbernard.html Why does this kind of thing keep going on?
Posted by Debra on January 15,2008 | 07:59 PM
In my later years, I'm reverent to the service of many animals to man -- particularly horses and dogs. The report that there is an ongoing activity to honor and continue the St. Bernard breed in a Swiss village is a rare bright spot in a current world of chaos and tension! Thanks a bunch!!!
Posted by Donald M. Mong II on January 13,2008 | 06:56 PM
We live here in north central Maine near Moosehead Lake. And our St. Bernard, JayJay, is enjoying one of her favorite seasons,winter. She doesn`t like the weather to be extremely cold, but this winter we`.ve had an unusual amount of snow and this has suited her just fine. Saints are great family companions---they just don`t know they are so big !

Good article. Brief but very informative. Thanks!

A wonderfully informative article about those loveable 4-footed creatures that risked "their lives" so that those unfortunate humans who fell, oftentimes 'thru the cracks' shall live ~ they should be 'enshrined'......

Summer Series 2012: Celebrating Your City
This delightful Alamo City that we call home has a vibrant culture and a rich history that makes it unique. Every once in a while it's worth taking a tourist's approach. Head downtown and re-engage yourself for a fresh perspective of what your city has to offer.
For our 4th Summer Series blog, we went to the heart of San Antonio to put this couple in the midst of quintessential landmarks in order to capture their city. They are starting out their lives together with some incredible jobs and a swanky apartment downtown. We thought they were the perfect fit for our "classy tourist" inspired photo session. We kind of cheated in this "engagement" photo shoot because our couple, Adrienne and Wilson, are already married….BUT good news is that they're adorable and in love…so it works, right?
We are thrilled to showcase the La Villita and Hemisphere Park area. We hope it inspires you to revisit these neat and historic areas. Adrienne and Wilson are delighted to call San Antonio their home and we hope to have provided some classic portraits for their new downtown abode. Big thanks to them for helping us celebrate good ol' San Antone. Visit their whole gallery HERE.
Call us today to schedule a portrait with your favorite San Antonio landmarks! (210) 828-5167

Fantastic pictures, the couple really looks like they are having great time showing off our city!!!

During services this past weekend, Dr. Hunter reminded us that God has given us the ministry of reconciliation (2 Cor. 5:18). Once God reconciles us to Himself, He wants to reconcile us with others as well.
Do you have a relationship with someone that needs repair? The following resources may help you identify and work through practical steps to restore broken relationships and build new ones.
Reconciliation by John Jones
In this book, Jones relates his experiences as a minister of reconciliation to people seeking legal advice for broken relationships.
Connecting by Larry Crabb
Dr. Larry Crabb expands on his lifelong work in the field of psychotherapy to adopt a Biblical approach to healing the deep wounds of the soul. It's an approach that focuses on building intimate, healing, mini communities in our lives and churches.
The Peace Maker by Ken Sande
Sande gives Biblical guidance for conflict resolution that takes you beyond just resolving conflicts to true, life-changing reconciliation with family, coworkers, and fellow believers.
These resources (and more) are available in the Bookstore, so stop in or give us a call!

The hot mortgage REIT sector gets a bit frothier as Javelin Mortgage (JMI) files to raise $125M...
The hot mortgage REIT sector gets a bit frothier as Javelin Mortgage (JMI) files to raise $125M in an IPO. The recently formed business, managed by ARMOUR Residential (ARR), will - what else - borrow short, lever up, and buy MBS. (S-11)
Track new comments on this story
This news story has 16 comments:
ARR has disappointed with all of the secondary offerings and also the drop in dividend payouts from $0.12 to $0.09 in less than a year. I sold my last tranch for a loss because of the last divy drop from $0.10 to $0.09.....between the two accounts I manage, I held 27,000 shares. You just don't know when they are going to issue another secondary or lower their divy payout. They're drunken sailors at ARR.
I agree, this one makes me nervous had 20k and just sold today if it dips 10 points i may buy again before x div date.
you can tell the managers are only looking out for the managers
i would look for the div to continue to drop until the return goes to 10%
do you have any other monthly div stocks that you like?
i have phk,psec,hix,agd also like hyd but it only pays 5% -
if you took a loss on this last drop to about 7.39 or so,,,,you are late to the party. I have about that many, collected from 6.6.5,,,6.80,,,,7.01..... get the idea. These levels are a good cushion but not a price to start. (IMO)
Thanx Mike-------------I bought VNR yesterday & was up all night thinking of the politics going on in oil & gas.
I do have ARR in my trading account for now,but in my IRA I'm keeping ARR preferred A plus my royalty & mlp's. This way I build the cash & keep my accountant sane ! -
Javelin is intended to be the non-agency sister of ARMOUR, much like the relationship between AGNC and MTGE. We'll see how well the ARMOUR management team handles the credit risk introduced by investing in non-agency MBS. Non-agency MBS have had quite a run - not sure how much more room is left to the upside. I think Javelin is late to the party. Of course, as long as the yield curve remains positively sloped, mREITs are guaranteed to be profitable.
Every time some company issues more stock or changes something, lots of folks panic thinking they are trying to hide something. Look at NLY and CIM. Am I happy with both of those. You bet yur best anchor matey!
ARR is one of the best paying REITs and when something changes, many want the others to head for cover. This is just another expansion and proof that the industry is vibrant.
I will be watching the new offer, and all the other pertinent facts regarding owning a stock, and buy more or sell some as the facts NOT the emotions govern my thinking.
Holding ARR for the reason I got in, for the dividend.
