TUESDAY, May 10 (HealthDay News) -- Many tanning salons in the
United States don't warn teens and young women about the skin
cancer risks posed by tanning beds, according to a new survey.
The American Academy of Dermatology's online poll included more
than 3,800 white females aged 14 to 22 from across the country who
were asked about their tanning knowledge, attitudes and
The survey found that 43 percent of indoor tanners said they had
never been warned about the dangers of tanning beds by tanning
salon employees, and 30 percent said they hadn't noticed any
warning labels on tanning beds.
And the survey revealed some potentially deadly misperceptions
about tanning beds.
Younger tanning bed users (aged 14 to 17) were twice as likely
as older users (aged 18 to 22) to incorrectly believe that tanning
beds are safer than the sun (39 percent versus 15 percent), and
more than three times as likely to incorrectly believe that tanning
beds do not cause skin cancer (26 percent versus 8 percent),
according to the results.
"Indoor tanning poses a significant health risk, especially for [white people] because of their fair skin. Studies have found that UV [ultraviolet] radiation from indoor tanning beds increases a person's risk of developing melanoma by 75 percent," Dr. Ronald L. Moy, president of the American Academy of Dermatology Association (AADA), said in an academy news release.
"Contributing to this problem is the fact that tanning bed facilities currently are not required to verbally warn patrons of the known health risks of UV radiation and, in some cases, they may be misleading the public by falsely promoting artificial UV light as safer than natural sunlight," he added.
Moy noted that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration currently
classifies tanning beds as a Class I medical device. This means
they are subject to a minimal level of regulation and oversight,
similar to tongue depressors, bandages and crutches.
"That is why it's important that the FDA change the classification of indoor tanning devices to reflect the significant health risks that they pose, often unknowingly, to tanning salon patrons," Moy added.
The AADA supports the Tanning Bed Cancer Control Act, which
calls on the FDA to review its classification of indoor tanning
beds and to introduce enhanced consumer warning label rules for the

Nokia's CTO Peter Green may be on indefinite leave, but he's certainly leaving his responsibilities in capable hands. Nokia Research Center interim CTO Henry Tirri may be exactly what Nokia needs as it upends its world and plots a new strategy with Microsoft. As my colleague Michelle Maisto pointed out on this blog post, CEO Stephen Elop isn't getting much from the Nokia old guard as he tries to implement a radical maker-over for the company (Unfiltered: Nokia CTO leaving just as things are getting good). I have no idea whether Tirri will be an 'Elop man' in the CTO's office. In fact, I hardly know Tirri at all. I've only had one interview with Tirri for a story I wrote in 2009 about the radical changes wireless technology would undergo in the next 15 years. Though it was only a one-hour interview, it was one of the more interesting interviews I've conducted in my 11 years covering this industry.
I spoke to Tirri specifically about mobile's role in the semantic Web�how devices will stop being passive receivers of information and will start actively sensing and start actively creating and interpreting that information, the same way our senses and our brains record and process information today. Here's the excerpt:
The Invisible Internet is associated closely with the concept of the �Internet of Things,� in which a multitude of everyday objects are connected wirelessly. In such a world, not every object will have the intelligence to make decisions for itself � your carton of milk doesn't need an advanced processor, only the ability to communicate what it is and its expiration date � but collectively they'll create a form of ambient intelligence, allowing them to self-organize as a group. If the Invisible Internet of Things does become a reality, the Web will cease to be merely a virtual space, where people interact with one another from behind a PC or phone's screen, and become a real space � �meat space,� if you will � where thousands of objects, both personal and public, interact with one another.
The one element, besides a radio, all of those objects have in common is awareness. They have to be able to sense one another as well as their surroundings. Embedding devices and objects with that kind of sensitivity probably is the smallest challenge the Internet of Things faces right now, said Henry Tirri, head of the Nokia Research Center. The core sensors needed in the network of the future already are embedded in the average smartphone today: GPS and cellular triangulation sense location; accelerometers and digital compasses sense movement and direction; digital cameras can see for the devices. Some of those sensors need to be refined, but for the most part, devices already have access to enormous amounts of raw sensory data, Tirri said. The challenge for the industry is processing that data, interpreting it and combining it with data from other sensors to make it useful. Once the technology overcomes those problems, there's no limit to what can be wirelessly enabled, he added.
�In today's world of handsets, we talk in billions; in the future, we will talk about trillions of devices,� Tirri said. �Radios and sensors will be very small. They will be in everyday devices like coffeemakers and key chains, as well as all consumer devices, but also things you wouldn't think you'd have wireless capabilities, like chairs, tables, even your bed.�
Unfortunately most of my interview with Tirri went unused for lack of space, but in the hour-long phone call I certainly learned enough about to Tirri to know he's got some visionary ideas. Elop is trying to remake Nokia and restore its former glory as an innovator in handsets in mobile services. To do that, I can only assume, Elop will need some visionary thinkers to shape Nokia's long-term technology strategy. He might have just such a thinker in Tirri.

Don't Rely on Baby Products for SIDS Prevention
From pricey mattresses and mattress covers to sleep positioners and expensive baby monitors, have you been swayed by products that claim to lower risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)? Don't believe the hype.
The Scoop
According to a message from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the FDA "has never cleared or approved a baby product to prevent or reduce the risk of SIDS." Furthermore, the FDA states, "the Agency is not aware of any scientific studies showing that a medical device can prevent or reduce the risk of SIDS."
Yikes! So what does the FDA want us to show caution when buying? Examples of common baby products that may be labeled with unproven claims to prevent or reduce SIDS risk include: baby breathing and movement monitors; mattresses and mattress covers; crib tents; pillows; crib bedding, including bumpers and blankets; and last but not least, infant sleep positioners.
In fact, when it comes to this last item, the FDA says it is aware of at least 13 infant deaths over the past 13 years linked directly to use of infant sleep positioners. The FDA's key concern is that sleep positioners can cause babies to suffocate if they manage to roll onto their stomachs.
"These products are absolutely not necessary and they can be very dangerous," Susan Cummins, chief pediatric medical officer in the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health, says (via the Toronto Globe and Mail).
Baby Sleep Safety
We get the message: these products don't work to reduce risk for SIDS. So just what does? Research shows that the best way to reduce SIDS risk doesn't require a special shopping trip. According to SIDS experts, babies should sleep alone, in their own sleeping space, with no other people in the crib or bassinet. Sleep surfaces should be firm without any loose bedding and babies should be placed on their backs to sleep. Parents should also take steps keep cribs and bassinets free of pillows, blankets, bumpers, sleep positioners, toys, and other objects at bedtime and during naps.
Simple and cost-saving. We like that preventing the tragedy of SIDS may boil down to basic things every parent can manage.

The Bakersfield Californian asked the following California State College, Bakersfield Alumni on February 2, 1988 about their opinion on earning university status to become California State University, Bakersfield.
The Bakersfield Californian, Tuesday, February 2, 1983
Alumni Reactions to CSB becoming a University...
- Kern County Supervisor B.A. Public Admin, 1983
"I think it is certainly well deserved. Cal State has provided an excellent level of education and training for many in the community."
"It's the attitude of the community that it is, in fact, a good institution. We should be supportive and encourage young people in the community to get an education here."
- Camille Gavin
- Author and Columnist, M.A. Education, 1979
"I think perhaps it will give CSB more prestige and pride in itself."
"Perhaps it won't be something to come about in this year, but in the years to come. It's a step forward."
- Geary Taylor
- Kern County Administrative Officer B.A. Business,
1974 M.A, Public Admin, 1976
"I know they've been working very hard."
"The designation of university vs. college I don't think in any way diminishes the quality of the education they had before. Now, possibly, they'll be able to more easily attract good faculty.
"When I went there, the class sizes were small and the kind of personal attention I thought was great. I know that classes are larger now and I hope they don't get away from that feeling."
- Pauline Larwood
- Kern County Supervisor M.A. History, 1976
"I think it's very beneficial for the service area of the university. We have many people who want to continue their education and, through the years, have gone elsewhere."
"The County of Kern is the largest employer in the country and we have many technical people, from engineers to sanitation people."
"Private industry also has many people with science and technology backgrounds. I hope we could do something so people can do their postgraduate work here and not have to drive to Los Angeles or other places."
- James Childs
- Bakersfield councilman B.A. Sociology, 1971,
M.A. Counseling and Personnel Services, 1981
"There's no doubt that a university status for a school adds to the prestige of that school and it adds an aura of successful community."
"Personally, I'm extremely fortunate that I got my education there. I did my classes all at night while I was working two and three jobs."
- PFraney.jpg
- Kern County Auditor & Tax Collector,
B.S. Business and Public Admin, 1973
"It's recognition by the college system that they provide good programs."
"I think that university status will probably provide a broader scope of programs for students, like oil engineering or something for the oil industry. It would be very much of a benefit. There is a lot of talent locally and some if it has to leave to get an education."
"It's a partnership, the college with community. The university status doesn't change that. If anything, it will continue to get better."

Trey Burke had 22 points and nine assists and was one of five Michigan players to score in double-digits last night as the fifth-ranked Wolverines routed IUPUI 91-to-54 in an NIT Season Tip-Off first round game at Crisler Arena.
Michigan will try to improve to 3-and-0 tonight when they host Cleveland State in a second round Tip-Off contest with the winner moving on to the tournament semi-finals a week from tomorrow at Madison Square Garden.
Also coming up tonight, 14th-ranked Michigan State will attempt to rebound from its season-opening loss last Friday to U-Conn in the Armed Forces Classic as the Spartans face off against Number-7 Kansas at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta.
And Western Michigan has its home opener tonight, taking on Marygrove at University Arena in Kalamazoo.

"The textured paper makes these special and the clean design is perfect for my business which doesn't have a logo yet. Love them!"
"I really love the design of this card! It has such pretty colors with just the right amount of text. The colors are catchy yet calming. I am very happy with these cards!"
"I was concerned that the typeface might be a bit small, but it all looks great. Very professional, and a bit swish also. I could not be happier."
"I've just reordered these for the 4th or 5th time. They are so great-looking: chic, sharp, elegant and with just the right degree of moxie. I always receive compliments on them, and the paper quality is great. I also really liked being able to personalize the back (I added the fleur-de-lis). I will keep ordering these!"
"I was looking for something that was simple and beautiful at the same time. I came across this card and knew it was what I wanted. The detail with the color of the name along with the thin lines adds such a nice touch. I was not expecting such a good quality with the paper and was pleasantly surprised. I already have recommended this card along with the site to my friends. Thank you!"

Senator Harkin Address Shows Appreciation for Maharishi U
Senator Tom Harkin's 2013 commencement address last month delighted his listeners with humor, wisdom, and a deep appreciation for Maharishi University of Management.
He began by quipping, "I realize I was probably selected to be your speaker today because Oprah wasn't available." He then expressed his deep appreciation for MUM's approach to education.
"I do want you to know of my highest respect and admiration that I have for this university, for what you have done, what you have become here in Iowa, the nation, and the world, and especially for what I consider to be the best holistic approach to education and wellness in life at any university anywhere on the globe," he said.
Then he moved to the heart of his talk — Senator Harkin's 10 rules for living. He began with rule number 10: Don't panic, you'll find a job. And he reassured the graduates that their MUM education had prepared them well: "My confidence is based on one thing — because you came to the right school. I have nothing, as I said, but admiration for what this university has accomplished in such a short period of time. In a unique way you have put the 'higher' in higher education."
Reassuring graduating students that their practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique is also important to their professional success, he said, "At this university, education is also about training, focusing, freeing the mind. It's about raising consciousness. Here you have been beautifully prepared intellectually and spiritually for all the challenges you will face in the world out there, so you should go forth with confidence."
As rule number one, he urged graduates to be part of something larger than themselves, emphasizing the importance of contributing to their community. He said an important part of that was knowing who they are, with the Transcendental Meditation technique helping to achieve this.
"Most of the people who I have known who have been both successful and happy are those who know themselves — who they are," he said. "This university has taught you to have the mental strength to transcend the vicissitudes of life, to know yourself. It prepared you well for that outward journey."
And in a short postscript, he returned to the microphone to give a sign that he explained meant "I love you" in sign language.

Sometimes, I get the urge to write articles on here that are so far removed from personal finance that it would likely drive away a big chunk of the people that come here for personal finance stuff. For example, I was strongly tempted yesterday to write a lengthy diatribe about the season finale of Lost, but I resisted the temptation and instead wrote about gardening tools. About a week ago, I thought about hammering out a lengthy paean to my favorite musical group of all time, but then I wrote about goals instead.

Discovered this in NOLA during the distillery tour (highly recommended if you are in New Orleans). If you are a fan of ginger beer drinks, this is a spicy twist and not too sweet. A great summer drink.

A favorite farming cliché is, "The best thing you can apply to your field is your shadow." That's true for any crop, but it's especially true for wheat, says Farm Journal associate agronomist Missy Bauer.
"It's going to take time in the field to learn your wheat," Bauer told a group of about 100 wheat farmers at the 2013 Farm Journal Michigan Wheat College. "I like working with wheat because it's very responsive to management."
Farmers who attended the event, held June 25 at the MSU Crop and Soil Science Research Farm in Lansing, Mich., received valuable crop scouting advice from Bauer, independent crop consultant Ronan Cummins and others, before practicing scouting techniques themselves. Bauer says at minimum, there are five times winter wheat farmers absolutely need to be in their fields.
Put some extra TLC in your fields, and you'll be rewarded at harvest, Bauer says.
"It's not uncommon to see 8 to 20 bu. yield gains just by putting in more time for careful management," she says.

Frequently asked questions
These will help answer some basic questions – if in doubt consult your legal advisor or intellectual property expert.
1. What is intellectual property?
Intellectual Property (IP) is created when an idea takes some tangible form. IP can mean a brand, invention, design or other kind of creation. IP can be legally owned.
2. What sorts of intangible assets do we create?
A few examples of assets which embody IP that you may create and that support your work and enhance your reputation are:
- Software, methodologies and databases that you use in mathematical modelling;
- Databases, reports, plans, charts, diagrams and drawings that you compile to support your work or share with others;
- Training that you develop for your people;
- Your corporate logo, name and trade marks for products and services;
- Equipment that your people invent to support their work.
- Technical drawings and specifications;
- Designs - for example for corporate clothing, engineering projects, or corporate public relations materials.
3. What are Intellectual Property Rights?
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) are legal protections available to an owner of IP which give the owner control over their IP.
The main types of IPRs are:
- Copyright which protects material such as text, graphics, DVDs, software and broadcasts.
- Database Rights which may protect the investment in obtaining, verifying or presenting the contents of the database.
- Design Rights (registered or unregistered) which protect the visual appearance of products
- Patents which protect technical inventions
- Trade Mark Rights (registered or unregistered) which protect our brand names and logos
Confidential information may also be protected by legal agreements. Confidentiality is complex; consult your legal colleagues on how you may be able to use it to support your business.
Often different aspects of a creation are protected by a combination of IPR.
4. Who creates our intangible assets?
All your employees and any outside parties e.g. consultants or contractors whom you engage to do work for you.
5. Who owns our intangible assets?
The intangible assets created by your staff in undertaking their duties at work is usually owned by your organisation. The determining factor is the terms of their employment contract. You need to decide whether you need to own the intangible assets created for you by others, in particular suppliers you pay to do creative work for you. If you do, you need to ensure that your contracts assign ownership to your organisation. Speak to your procurement and legal colleagues.
In the case of information and documents created by civil servants and other officers or servants of the Crown, they are Crown copyright, which is owned on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen by the Controller of HMSO (the Director of Information Policy and Services at The National Archives ).
Works in Crown copyright are available for re-use by third parties under standard licensing terms, unless they qualify to be excepted from marginal cost pricing and the department has been accredited under the Information Fair Trader Scheme .
6. What do we need to do to manage our intangible assets?
Regardless of what intangible assets (IA) you create you need to:
- Clearly identify what IA you are creating e.g. software [X] software [Y] data set [Z] etc.).
- Clearly identify who created each asset, and if created under contract, detail the contract used
- Clearly identify any other IA that has been used in the creation of this new asset.
- Clearly explain what your organisation needs to do with this asset and check you have the necessary permission and rights.
7. How much time will managing IP take?
Less overall if you manage it well from the outset. How much time it takes depends on when you start managing the intangible assets, what type and how much you have and how you need to manage it to support your business targets.
You will find you need a balance of time between:
- setting up your organisational framework and educating your people, and…
- troubleshooting problems you find that need solving in the short term
8. Public money paid for these things. Surely the purpose is to share them as widely as possible?
That's true to a large extent. Firstly, as a matter of principle, protecting your intangible assets is not about restricting access, it is about protecting your content and exercising a degree of control in access to those assets.
Policies and legislation governs the ownership and access to public sector information. These policies have been developed by the National Archives and must be considered before embarking on commercialisation.
As the question suggests, in most cases it will not be appropriate to charge for the re-use of public sector information. In any case you will generally seek to encourage others to reuse your IA. Here, it is important to have the appropriate license which sets out clearly how others are able to use the intangible asset and their reciprocal obligations, if any.
You are advised to seek legal advice on drawing up a licence.
9. How do we give away/lose our intangible assets?
By not:
- securing them in contracts with suppliers or partners;
- licensing them under appropriate terms when you share things (e.g. data or software) with others;
- making others aware of our rights e.g. by marking documents to indicate release conditions;
- seeking statutory protection for them e.g by registering certain rights;
- keeping inventions secret until protected/registered;
- ensuring that staff understand that confidential information must be kept confidential;
- enforcing rights against infringers.
10. What are the reasons we need to do this now?
Intangible assets (IA) management is one element of good business management. Not considering IA in your work risks damaging your organisation's finances, operations and reputation. By failing to secure and protect your IPR you run the risk of: wasting public money, not meeting your targets, and being involved in damaging disputes with others.
11. We need to buy something that may have intangible assets in it from another organisation, what do we need to do?
- Identify what you need to do with the product you are buying (e.g. do you need to copy it, modify it, give it to third parties).
- Then look at the contract with the seller (or licence from the seller) and check whether the terms permit you to do the things you need to do with it or not. If not you will need to renegotiate the terms.
- Ensure your people clearly understand what they are, and are not, able to do with it if they need to use it.
12. Does the required approach to intangible assets depend on how much money we spend?
No. Even small amounts of spending may create important intangible assets that your organisation comes to rely on. You will need to decide how you prioritise your resources to manage the assets that are important to your business.
13. I think another organisation is using our intangible assets without our permission, what should I do?
Seek advice from your legal/IP department or from a specialist IP lawyer.
14. I think I have created some intangible assets. Where do I go for assistance in protecting it?
Seek advice from your legal/IP department or a specialist IP lawyer.
15. What is the position regarding public sector information?
Through government initiatives such as the data.gov.uk initiative, efforts are being made to encourage the re-use of public sector information. This is being achieved, in part, by making government datasets available free of charge through simple non-transactional licences, managed by The National Archives.
For advice on re-use policy, contact The National Archives .

We've talked about the tramadol on line loopwing turbine before, and also about solar powered toy fuel cell car. But the two have been thrown together in this awesome wind-powered, electric-toy-car kit. Tamiya has partnered with Loopwing to create the kit, which requires what is likely to be a great deal of assembly. But, once you've created your system, the wind turbine will charge the car enough to keep it running by remote control for 3.5 hours.
If I were 13 I would be begging my parents for one of cheap tramadol sales 120 tabs these things, and I'm nearly asking my wife right now. The biggest surprise of all is the price, a mere $30!

I wonder if you could take this system, rip apart the car, and use the parts to charge regular batteries for things like cameras and can you buy ultram over the counter mp3 players.

Our company, LearnOnLine, Inc. intends to add a computer interface to viagra drugs online this device so that users can see the real-time voltage, current and power outputs of the turbine graphically plotted on a computer screen.

Fingerprint Powder
Latent powder and magnetic powders have been the choice of fingerprinting experts for years. Select either black, white, bichromatic, fluorescent red, fluorescent green powder and more, depending upon the latent surface.
Use white powder on dark surfaces and black powder on light surfaces. Bichromatic powder is useful on light and dark surfaces. Fluorescent powders work well on wooden surfaces, such as rifle stocks and wood paneling. They can also can be used with filters and UV lights. Add $1 for fluorescent powder.
We also carry fluorescent powders which are applied with either a magnetic wand or a feather duster. Fluorescent powders are used in conjunction with a UV light and goggles, usually orange.

Out of a few other powders I tried this was the best one. With the others I had an issue with the powder sticking to the subject and clumping up. I wanted a very fine powder and this worked the very well.

ALBANY, N.Y. -- If lawmakers do not vote and raise the debt ceiling, the effects on the nation's economy could be felt in households across America.
Economist Hugh Johnson stresses that if no deal is made to increase the debt limit, we will all feel the ramifications.
"If you default, that could create enormous issues in the financial markets," said Johnson, who highlighted the importance of raising the current $16.7 trillion debt ceiling.
That ceiling is how much money the United States Government is authorized to borrow to meet obligations as far as Medicare benefits and interest payments on national debt and tax refunds.
"If we default on our debt and don't make payments, it will have serious implications on interest rates and impacts on stock prices and impacts on the economy," said Johnson.
The public could feel that when they go to buy a house or a car, as those interest rates could sky rocket. Also, Johnson says, it will send a negative message to other countries.
"It isn't just domestic investors, but investors throughout the world. What does it say if we can't pay our bills?" he said.
But some lawmakers argue it is dangerous to keep raising our level of debt here in the United States.
"What they are saying is we should have some real hard revenue reform, which means tax increases or spending cuts so we don't continue to borrow more money because that's not good for the financial health of the economy."

My dad has worked with many crazy, strange and funny people in his long farming career. One of them was an old guy named Jack... Old Jack was one of those guys who never retired, but worked right up until the day he died. He told stories every day, and one day he related to my father what had once happened to him when he was plowing on the night shift. He died many years ago now, but this little movie will ensure that one of his most regrettable moments will live forever.

Nice and crisp animation. Straight to the point story line. It was as if i could hear Old Jack telling it to a group of people over a camp fire. Word for word i got the story. I agree with your decision to leave out any kind of music (pertains to the feeling of hearing over a camp fire). Music would have ruined the blunt humor being dished out to us. I give my condolences to the passing of Old Jack. Hope to see more of his life experiences.

Eunuchs in D.C.
That is probably the greatest post title I will ever have. Do you know what a eunuch is? They are 100% manhood-free people who were often tasked with guarding consorts and harems (their lack of any sex drive made them trustworthy). Because they became so trusted by their rulers, they got seats of power. The Eastern Han Dynasty of China is a great example of | Read More »

Invest in America with Ford Motor Company
Joseph is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) is as American as baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie. My father, both of my brothers, and myself all began driving in Fords. My father's first car was a 1971 Ford F-100, my oldest brother's was a 1984 Mustang, my middle brother's was a 2003 F-150, and my first was a 2004 F-150. I had not even realized this until beginning to write this article. I guess the Solitro family is truly "Built Ford Tough."
Ford has been designing, manufacturing, distributing, and servicing automobiles and related parts since 1903. Ford owns the Ford and Lincoln brands, which are home to some of the most popular vehicles in the United States and across the globe. Ford's F-series has continued to dominate the United States as the best selling truck for 35 consecutive years. Lincoln is seen as a more luxurious brand of cars, which is shown in their higher than average prices. The Ford Motor Company faced plenty troubles during the economic downturn, but they have come out of it stronger than ever.
2012 & 2013
In January, Ford reported their strongest fourth quarter earnings in over 10 years. Fourth quarter pre-tax profit came in at $1.7 billion, and this brought Ford to 14 consecutive profitable quarters. Revenue rose 5.8% to $34.5 billion and earnings per share came in at $0.31. This blew past analyst expectations of $0.25 per share on revenue of $32.94 billion. North American sales surged over 12.5% and are expected to rise over 10% in 2013.
Earnings are expected to be back on the rise in 2014 and 2015. Analysts currently project earnings per share of $1.68 in 2014 and $1.98 in 2015. $1.68 per share would represent a 19.9% growth from 2013, an explosive number. The $1.98 in 2015 also shows a very high growth of 17.9% from 2014. These numbers make Ford worth owning right now. Management also said they expect to "command" a higher market share in both the United States and China next year.
The main issue facing Ford is Europe. The company's European unit reported a loss of $1.75 billion in 2012, and this loss is expected to grow to $2 billion in 2013. Ford says 2013 will be the bottom, as car sales have fallen to near 20 year lows. $500 million of Ford's 2013 losses will go towards restructuring that should help performance in future years. Ford owns an estimated 8% share of the European auto market, so leaving entirely is not likely. However, if Ford can turn around its European operations and get back to profitability, it would prove huge for the bottom line.
India is an emerging market that Ford is trying to gain a larger share of. They entered this market in 1996 and introduced their first car in there in 1998. At first, Ford's cars were too big and consumers did not embrace the Ford name. However, through research and development, Ford has brought one of the most popular cars to the market. The Ford Figo has done very well and has accounted for 85% of their sales in India year-to-date. The other 15% of sales comes from their less popular cars: the Classic, Endeavour, and Fiesta. Major auto companies are projected to grow by double digits over the next few years, so Ford is well positioned to benefit. They currently own a 2.6% market share in India, but this number could easily double if operations run smoothly and the Indian people learn to love Ford as Americans do.
General Motors (NYSE: GM) and Tata Motors (NYSE: TTM) are two of Ford's top competitors. General Motors manufactures and distributes vehicles worldwide, and includes brands such as Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac. As of January 2013, General Motors owns the largest market share in the U.S. auto market with 18.7%. Ford came in second, with a 15.2% share. In 2012, General Motors sold nearly 2.6 million new cars, while Ford once again came in second with about 2.25 million sold. Ford's sales increased by 4.7% from 2011, and GM's sales were up 3.7% in the same time frame. GM currently has the most U.S. sales in 2013 with about 195,000 cars sold. Ford once again comes in second with close to 166,000 cars sold. The General Motors and Ford competition is healthy, and both will continue to benefit from the recovering economy.
Tata Motors is the largest automobile company in India, bringing in an estimated $32.5 billion in 2012. They are also the fourth largest manufacturer of trucks and buses in the world. Tata holds a spot in the top 3 of the compact, mid size, and utility cars market, as well as the top spot in all segments of commercial sales. This is incredible strength, and it is shown by their sale of over 15,200 units in January. In comparison, Ford sold just 6,062 units during the month. One of the main things that sets Tata apart from their competition is their constant innovation. They are always bringing new products to the market. For instance, they released two new cars in the last 6 months and added the Tata Vista D90 in January. The people of India embrace all of these new cars, and sales have jumped. Ford has a tough competition in Tata, but if they can continue to introduce new products, they will be able to increase their market share and bring in billions of dollars in revenue.
The Stock
Near the close of trading on Feb. 22, Ford was trading at $12.46. It is down around 12.5% in the last month, so there is definitely room to run. At $12.46, Ford is trading at only 8.8 times earnings. This is cheap compared to the industry average of 15.59, but could be due to 2013 earnings matching those of 2012. For Ford's stock to look cheaper, you have to compare the current stock price to 2014 and 2015. At these levels, Ford trades at just 7.4 times 2014 earnings and 6.3 times 2015's earnings. If you put a cheap multiple of 10 on 2015's earnings, Ford's stock would trade around $20 per share. This would represent a 60.5% move up in just 2 years, not even factoring in reinvested dividends!
Dividend on the Rise
Ford doubled its dividend this year, just one year after bringing it back. The company stopped paying a dividend in 2006 due to mounting losses and other financial woes. The increase from $0.20 annually to $0.40 annually was announced in January. This means Ford yields 3.3%, which is big enough to attract investors looking for a dividend play. If Ford can grow steadily, the dividend should grow right along with them.
The Bottom Line
Ford is a great way to invest in America while having international exposure and growth potential. They are likely to outperform the market over the next 5 years, so I have made a CAPS call accordingly. They made it out of near-bankruptcy to become one of the strongest automobile plays around. I think Ford's stock can work its way back to the $20's, where they traded in the 1990's. If Ford can grow globally and bring European operations back on track, they could become more powerful than ever. It will take strong earnings and consistent growth to do this, but Ford is on the right path and there is no stopping them now. Ford Motor Company is a long term BUY.

Terrible stick and poke tattoo
Submitter Comment: I was browsing youtube and I was looking at some other stick and poke tattoos when some how stubbled across this little gem!
What is awful: Where do I start! this lady is using india ink which is hardly a proper pigment for tattooing and could possibly be harmful! She thinks that dipping a dirty sewing needle into hydrogen peroxide will make it "sterile". She doesn't wear gloves, they are outside being exposed to so much bacteria just waiting to infect the "victim", there is no stencil of any sort and the end result looks as if a kindergardener took a sharpie to her arm!
How it can be fixed: Go to a PROFESSIONAL!!! Don't do home tattoos with dirty equipment! hydrogen peroxide will not sterilize that needle, only an auto clave will get ride of all that bacteria!! and don't let people who look that normal poke you with anything!

Kimchi is a Korean condiment made of a combination of vegetables (usually cabbage, carrots, radishes, turnips and/or green onions) that are pickled and flavored with spices such as garlic and ginger. Look for it in Asian markets and natural food stores, usually in jars in the refrigerated section.
Serve this relish on hot dogs with hot mustard. Brush the mustard on the hot dogs just before removing from the grill. Drizzle with a little Sriracha sauce for a truly "hot" dog!

Spanish Fork • Following a weeklong trial and eight hours of deliberation, a jury late Friday night acquitted Roberto Miramontes Román of the 2010 slaying of Millard County Deputy Josie Greathouse Fox.
A jury of six men and four women found Román, 40, not guilty of first-degree felony aggravated murder, but convicted him of felony counts of evidence tampering and illegal possession of a dangerous weapon.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Román will be sentenced on the two lesser counts Oct. 10 by 4th District Court Judge Donald Eyre.
Román on Thursday took the witness stand to claim that the deputy's own brother, Ryan Greathouse — who was allegedly involved in a drug deal just minutes before the fatal shooting — had pulled the trigger of the AK-47 that killed Fox.
Juror Nicole Kay told The Tribune there was "an absence of evidence about Ryan Greathouse — at all. We could not rule out the possibility that that story [told by Román] could be true."
Asked what jury deliberations were like, Kay replied: "Have you ever seen "12 Angry Men?" After a certain amount of deliberation, certain doubts came forward. We just had more and more doubts."
Doug Fox, the husband of Josie Fox, blamed the verdict on the judge, saying he had kept critical evidence from the jury.
Referring to Román's alleged confession to police, Doug Fox said: "He admitted he done it. That flat-ass tells you that he's guilty."
Defense attorney Stephen McCaughey said, "I think Román's testimony was what this case was all about. [Jurors] looked at that and all the other evidence and came to the conclusion that they did."
Millard County prosecutor Patrick Finlinson declined to comment.
Earlier Friday during closing arguments, Finlinson had worked to pick apart Román's version of how Fox died.
The deputy and detective who drove to Ryan Greathouse's home in Leamington after the Jan. 5 shooting said the man did not appear to have been crying, as Román testified Thursday. Deputies also questioned whether Román could have made the 22.8-mile drive from the shooting scene to Leamington in the nine or 10 minutes he said it took.
Finlinson blasted Román's story, calling it "insult to injury" and a "convenient" tale that prosecutors heard for the first time Thursday.
"Blame the dead guy," he said of Greathouse, who died in April 2010 of a drug overdose. "Blame the guy who can't defend himself. Blame the guy who can't respond."
"Ryan Greathouse did not kill his sister," Finlinson added.
The prosecutor added that Román's account, which contradicts a confession he gave police a day after Fox's death, does not fit with the evidence in the case.
"All of the credible evidence in this case, all the believable evidence, points to the inescapable fact that this defendant killed Josie Greathouse Fox and then ran away," Finlinson said.
But McCaughey told the jury: "The decision you must make is important. Here you can send a man to prison for the rest of his life."
The defense attorney said prosecutors had failed to present enough evidence for a conviction beyond Román's original confession to police, which Román said he gave because he feared for his children at the hands of Greathouse.
"[Román] knew what [Greathouse] could do," McCaughey said.
Outside the courtroom, Mike Román said he's glad his brother's story is out now. "He's been telling us all along he never done it."Next Page >

Sussex County secession: Serious or just a fun debating topic?
One of the "regulars" at the conservative political blog, "Delaware Politics", raises the issue of Sussex County, seceding from the rest of Delaware.
Fascinating topic, but probably almost completely within the theoretical realm.
History: Since West Virginia became a state during the Civil War, no U.S. state has successfully emerged from parts of an already existing state. (Although some Western territories were carved out from bigger territories prior to statehood, just like the Canadians got a new territory in 1999 when the Eskimo/Inuit territory of Nunavut was carved from the much larger Northwest Territories.)
Size: Given Delaware's already diminutive size, does anyone really honestly think a state of Sussex would somehow jump ahead of the other longshots from bigger states? (Such as Northern Colorado, as discussed in that blog posting)
Politics and constitutional law: Any new state would require legislative approval of the affected states, plus the U.S. Congress. So you think the Delaware General Assembly would ever agree?
Practicality: Obviously, it would make much more geopolitical sense for Sussex to unite with aggrieved counties of Maryland's Lower Eastern Shore or even the complete Eastern Shore. But then, you'd need legislative approval from the respective legislatures in TWO state capitals. Fat chance!
Long-term demographics: Promoters of Washinton DC statehood have somtimes come up with schemes where Democratic-majority DC would achieve full statehood status by being paired with a territory that would be considered reliably Republican. Trouble is most U.S. territories don't meet those criteria. Then came a proposal to give DC at least one U.S. House seat by pairing it with the addition of a Congressional seat from Utah. That fizzled.
So on paper, wouldn't it make perfect sense to pair DC statehood with Sussex statehood? Problem: DC is apt to remain reliably Democratic, but one could argue Sussex County is not necessarily a lock to remain reliably Republican in perpetuity. Reason: New older residents moving into beach areas from the Washington suburbs and elsewhere, plus some young professionals, coupled with Hispanics. The clock is ticking...
(But as I suggested above, I regard this more as a fun theoretical exercise than something serious.)
Here's that post from Delaware Politics...

Isn't Delaware small enough already?
Wed, Aug 21, 2013 9:23pm
I think the grievances described in this story could apply to just about any state these days. Right off the bat I can think of our home state of Illinois and the increasing disconnect between the Chicago and St. Louis metro areas and the remaining people throughout the rest of the state.
Sadly, the big cities control everything just about everywhere and the rural folks are hung out to dry.
I also stated in a previous post a few months back that if states had a county-by-county electoral college system, Republicans would win almost every time.

For many decades, there were talks of New Castle County rejoining Penn, while Kent and Sussex would join with the Maryland Eastern Shore and the attached Virginia counties to form a new state called Delmarva.
It was not just talk. It was a serious idea in several circles.
Mike from Delaware
Thu, Aug 22, 2013 1:30pm
JimH: I remember that.
Maybe that would be a good thing for Kent and Sussex Counties to join up with this new "Delmarva" state; their taxes would probably drop [unless Salisbury's population is large enough that they'd have the same problem as they now have due to the Wilmington Metro Area] where NCC/Wilmington's population is far larger than the lower two counties and far more blue than those lower two counties. Interestingly, this past election Kent County went Blue [Dover's minority community has grown]. So maybe Kent would want to stay with NCC rather than Sussex and Eastern Shore MD/VA.
But for NCC, even being a "Blue County", our taxes here are a lot less than in PA, so why would we vote to become a part of the "Keystone State", and end up paying more taxes?
I could see a state of Delmarva that included the entire state of Delaware with Eastern Shore MD/VA. The population would be far more balanced, giving NCC less say [which would be why NCC wouldn't go for it, but would make Delaware a larger state with many more natural resources; maybe we'd have enough population to rate a second House seat in Congress and maybe 4 electorial votes in national elections. Could be interesting. One DEM and one GOP House member. Would make the state's elections more interesting as the GOP might actually have a chance to win the Governorship again, etc.
I wonder if those commercial TV stations in Salisbury would be allowed to move their transmitting towers to Dover so the entire state of Delmarva would be able to receive in-state commercial TV news? Would those stations start covering Wilmington and NCC more? Gee, Delmarva would have two commercial airports [at the present time both New Castle and Salisbury have air service].
Could be interesting on a number of fronts.

Mrpizza: I haven't read any of Bill smith's post since the Weekend open forum. What's the point? That's why I haven't replied to any of his posts. He simply hates people like us, & frankly I've grown weary of his hateful posts & no matter how me, you, or anyone else here has tried to have an intelligent discussion with him as soon as you disagree with him, he starts hurling the hate speech. So rather than give him power to insult me & my beliefs, I just don't bother reading his posts.
It's a free country & he certainly is entitled to voice his opinions here just as you or I. But that doesn't mean I have to read & respond to his hatred. I just scroll by any post by Bill Smith & read everyone else's posts.
It's a lot less stressful that way. Have fun arguing with Bill Smith, better thee than me.

Upstate and Lower Delaware are definitely two different worlds existing in the same state but Delaware is just too small to divide... Colorado, on the other hand, is a different story.
Mike from Delaware
Fri, Aug 23, 2013 5:43pm
EarlGrey: a realtor a few years ago explained to me that she believes that eventually Lower Delaware will become Blue, because of all the out of staters from The Northeast & DC that find our homes & taxes far less expensive & choose to retire here. Most of those folks will be liberal. Do the math. Delaware will probably become even more blue than it is now. So their urge to leave us fine folks from NCC may be short lived.
