Wal-Mart's PR Clouds Demand Lower Valuations
Bill is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Deserved, undeserved, or most-likely--somewhere in between; Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) bears the burden of bad public relations. Its anti-union stance, labor cost controls, and corporate scandals have turned off a lot of would-be customers. This is a shame, since by and large it is just a firm that turns a profit, not a demon or evil force. Wal-Mart even does great charity at the local national level, which is often ignored.
But investors should not buy Wal-Mart until it trades at a significant valuation discount relative to its competitors, since these other firms do not have such ominous dark clouds over their brands.
International Bribery
Wal-Mart's global growth could slow as the scandal of alleged bribery in Mexico, India, and other foreign markets inspire internal and governmental crack-downs.
Recently Wal-Mart has launched an exhaustive investigation at Bharti Wal-Mart, its joint venture in India, regarding possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (this is a U.S. anti-bribery law). The Indian venture has suspended some employees and decided to put the planned store openings on hold until after the inquiry is completed.
The U.S. Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission are looking into accusations that Wal-Mart employees bribed Indian officials so it could open more stores quickly. After the Indian government's go-signal to allow foreign companies invest into multi-brand retail store chains last September, Wal-Mart had been aggressive in trying to increase its foothold in the world's second most populous country. A Wal-Mart email stated, "We remain excited about the opportunity to grow our business in one of the world's most vibrant economies." Wal-Mart had launched a joint venture with billionaire Sunil Mittal's Bharti Enterprises for wholesale operations in 2007.
A team of investigators summoned certain employees for questioning and barred them from entering Bharti Wal-Mart's offices until after the probe. Wal-Mart would not comment about the details pending the completion of the inquiry.
India's Enforcement Directorate is also asking for pertinent documents relating to Wal-Mart's investments in the country, probably in response to a lawmaker's letter to PM Manmohan Singh asking about irregularities in Wal-Mart's investments.
Wal-Mart Does Good Things, Too
First and foremost, we ought to respect Wal-Mart's enormous contribution to the economy. Only the armed forces of the United States and China employ a comparable number of people. Moreover, a substantial part of its market comes from rural Americans that many other companies have largely ignored.
Wal-Mart also participates in charitable efforts. It was one of dozens of companies that raised funds for the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Wal-Mart is also one of 39 companies that have each pledged the Red Cross $1 million.
The hurricane was definitely a big deal: it caused over $50 billion in damages. The effected area's political leaders praised this fundraising effort. Chris Christie, New Jersey Governor said, "I want to thank Wal-Mart." The Governor added, "They have been extraordinarily generous to the state of New Jersey in many different ways."
Wal-Mart was not the only or most generous donor. The Red Cross has also received donations from corporations such as Target (NYSE: TGT), Kohl's (KSS), and Citigroup (C) and others. All-in-all, Wal-Mart demonstrated that it can be a good corporate citizen. It was not a leader, but it did its part.
Customers have to Cross Picket Lines
The planned online and store protests against Wal-Mart failed to decrease traffic at its more than 4,500 stores and clubs spread across the U.S. The world's largest retailer sold more than 1.3 million TVs, about the same number of dolls, and 250 thousand bicycles. Wal-Mart said about 22 million customers were drawn by its promotions on November 23, higher than last year's crowds. Protests took place at 26 stores only, participated by less than 50 associates.
The protests were spearheaded by International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and the United Food & Commercial Workers International Union to demand for better pay and benefits, predictable schedules, cheaper health care plans, options to work full-time, and a minimum wage of $13 an hour. The union-backed protesters strongly oppose the retailer's alleged manipulation of hours and benefits, and discrimination against women and minorities.
The organizers failed to win participation from Wal-Mart's 1.4 million employees who probably feared for their jobs in spite of the alleged treatment they get from their employer. A thousand protesters showed in Paramount, California; a hundred marched with signs in Secaucus, New Jersey; and about seventy people in Miami Gardens, Florida among others, but situations appeared to be generally normal.
Wal-Mart filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board which accused the unions of violating labor laws by picketing illegally and which questioned the unions' capacity to represent its employees and asking for investigation and immediate injunction.
Comparing Valuations
Investors shouldn't buy Wal-Mart shares until they are much cheaper than the shares of its peer firms. Today, this is clearly not the case:
Paradoxically, most of these discount stores are pricey based on valuation. With the exception of Target and Big Lots (NYSE: BIG), these firms trade at earnings multiples that are greater than the S&P 500. Investors seeking defensive stocks in this industry should be selective and only consider these three stocks since they are attractively valued.
Many of these discounters priced for growth, presumably because investors expect consumers will flock to the cheap deals. This growth trend is "baked in" the stock prices of Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, and Dollar General.
Investors should refuse to pay a higher multiple for Wal-Mart than for the broader market given its bad public relations. As alternatives, they should consider Target and Big Lots. They are cheaper and better-liked companies.

Smooth `date doctor' Will Smith tutors losers on how to pull women, but only in a wholesome relationship kinda way. His composure, though, is rocked when he falls for a feisty newspaper reporter (Eva Mendes), whose research skills lead her to believe that he's the equivalent of Magnolia's pussy-hound Frank TJ Mackey... That's it, really. Smith's big-grin presence halts the deterioration from `a bit poorly' to `critical', but it's about as complex as Celebrity Love Island, albeit without the booze-fuelled fumblings and the butting of C-list celebrity egos.

Daily Links: Answers and Myths Edition
Published on - March 18th, 2010 (by J.D. Roth)
As many of you have noticed, my book is making its way into stores. Your Money: The Missing Manual is now shipping from Amazon, and should find its way into brick-and-mortar bookstores over the coming month. I'm excited (and scared) to have this let loose upon the world. I've done my best to create a book that can help people improve their financial lives, and I know I've packed it with great information, but there's always a part of me that worries that I could have done even better, you know?
Though the book is out now, the "launch" ceremonies aren't officially underway. My publisher is putting together a PR push for early April, and I'll start doing more marketing myself in the next week or two. To start, I've contributed 5 practical tips for saving money over at O'Reilly Answers. (O'Reilly is my publisher.) Go take a gander — and while you're there, feel free to leave a comment with your tips for saving.
In non-J.D.-related news, here are some other interesting financial articles I've found recently:
I mentioned the new blog Pop Economics about a month ago, but I'm going to mention it again. I like it. A lot. The author tends to stay on the economics side of personal finance (as you might guess from the blog's title), but his articles are informative and interesting. I particularly enjoyed the recent rant about the problem with gold bugs. I've considered writing an article about gold myself, but don't have the guts. (I'm not a fan of gold as an investment, and I know saying that will make some people cranky.)
Earlier this month, Steve at Brip Blap wrote a post called "How to Make Money on Facebook". But the post is really about how to lose money in a negotiation. When you're buying something — especially a house — you put yourself at a disadvantage when you let the other side know how much you want to buy. I learned this lesson the hard way when I bought my Mini Cooper (I gushed about the car to the salesman, who could then get me to pay even more). When you're negotiating, let the other side do the talking.
In her article about the myth of the $18,000 wedding, Laura Rowley argues that people think they're supposed to spend that much because they've been told that's how much people spend — even though that might not be the case. While researching my book, I was frustrated to find that a lot of the figures we financial fanatics hold dear are actually based on myth. (For instance: Can anyone show me the purported Dun & Bradstreet study that shows people spend more with credit cards than without?)
How did I miss this when it was first posted at The Consumerist last November? I don't know, but this is awesome. Here's a video from a former Bank of America customer-service rep that explains why she was fired: because she stopped denying people who needed help:
If you can't (or don't want to) watch the video, The Consumerist has a complete transcript.
Finally, I've been very busy for the past few months. Or years. Which may be why Marissa Bracke's post about why she stopped working with busy people hit home with me. Maybe I need to change my outlook.
This article is about Spare Change
I take that woman as an inspiration. I work at a bank (thankfully, not collections but deposits) and when deciding what fee's to waive or refund, I think about what is fair for the circumstances.
I still say no a lot, but there's some nickle and diming I refuse to do. I'm a top performer as well. I consider it the reason for my top performing. I'm training new people right now and I teach the same ideas.
Loved the BofA lady on the Daily show the other week.
I can tell you that Dun and Bradstreet can't find the mythical 1993 credit card study. They sent my research assistant an email saying it did not exist and *they* think it is a lie. We're still pushing on it though.
Are you going to do any book signings? I was bummed that Cakewrecks never made it out near us on their world tour.
oooh good point, Nicole. J.D., you want to travel, right? Come sign books! I don't know if that would really make you any money but it might be fun.
I use the word "busy" to fill in for my crappy memory. I am very socially active and sometimes I really can't remember right away what I did last night or last weekend or last month. I have yet to figure out a cure for that. Am I relying on my calendar too much, or am I delegating to off-site storage?
Final comment: that Bank of America former-employee post should be the final nail in the coffin for anyone considering closing their accounts with a big bank. I'm so glad I moved to credit unions ten years ago. That story makes me feel sick.
J.D., post your rant about gold! We need more spirited debates on this site.
You have to remember that there's a spectrum involved: in general, 10% will strongly agree with you; 10% will strongly disagree…it's the other 80% who will actually be helped by the debate (and those folks comment least!)
The last big debate on your blog, started by me, drove tons of traffic to your site, tons of traffic to *my* site, and heck, one guy even found out he had Celiac disease (which I only mentioned offhand.) Had I to do it all over again, I'd write that post again. I had a blast with it.
P.S. I own physical gold and it's been a great investment, appreciating some 35% since I bought it…but even I think this reeks of a bubble. I plan to sell and use it as part of a house downpayment…whenever I actually do that…no concrete plans yet.
Your book just showed up today from Amazon. I'm eager to get started on it.
Congrats! So neat to actually hold the thing in your hands, isn't it?
Never heard of the Dun & Bradstreet study, but there have been a few academic studies about people with credit cards spending more.
"Effect of payment transparency on consumption,"Dilip Soman, 2001.
"Always leave home without it," Drazen Prelec & Duncan Simester, 2001.
"Effect of payment mechanism on spending behavior," Soman, 2001.
Good work on the ex BOA employee!
Something about the supposed ex-BoA employee doesn't seem right. It just seems a little off to me.
I'm sorry, but the BOA story was like someone blaming a gun store owner for letting them buy and criminally misuse a weapon. Yes, there are sad stories out there and yes, I would agree that 30% interest is steep. But honestly, that is not BOA's problem. I'm sure a lot of people would disagree; but they are a corporation that exists in a capitalist society. Churches, family, charity, etc. are there for situations like this. I do not work for a corporation, but I am sick of Americans blaming every woe on the "evil capitalist corporations". The sob story is the same tool being used to try implementing the Health Care bill. Drag some kid in front of the cameras and try to tug the ol' heartstrings. The BOA employee was fired for not doing her job…period. If she really wanted to help maybe she could have contacted some charitable organizations, etc. But people please….there will always be poor, there will always be hungry. But corporations and companies are not responsible for their well being.
Congrats about your book. I hope to buy when it becomes available here in Brazil…
I also write about finances, and I am always reading your article.
Congratulations again.
Thanks for pointing to the gold story. I'm always impressed not only by the quantity of readers you send over but by the quality of the comments and notes they send my way. It really speaks highly of the community you've built here.
The video is very disturbing and a good reminder about why I don't have a credit card any longer. I refuse to support the credit card industry, and fortunately I'm a position to make that stick.
Congrats – just bought your book last night J.D. from amazon.com – this is the first nonelectronic book that I've bought in ages and I cannot wait to read it! I used the advice in your blog to pay off all our debt before we started building a much smaller house to move to in the spring and look forward to keeping our finances in better order going forward.
Congrats on your release and good luck!
Good lists of posts too! I'm also hesitant about buying gold as an investment…
The $18,000 Wedding article sparked a bunch of posts elsewhere as well (like Frugal Confessions, which led to my post)…it's amazing what things cost and the amount of people willing to splurge since it's their wedding day.
For anyone looking for great cheap or inexpensive wedding ideas, head over to offbeatbride.com . My weddings (yes I had two) were featured there. It's just ripe with people having wonderful days without spending TONS of moneys and doing things that matter to them. Vegan weddings, Rockabilly weddings, you name it, it's there.
JD- I love this site! I was referred here by a friend and am here daily now. I am having a hard time getting and navigating around here today because I think the amount of traffic coming here is shutting down the servers. Not a bad problem for you! Gratz on the new book, I look forward to picking up a copy in the next few months when my budget allows
JD – will any electronic versions of your book be available for purchase?
Ben, it is Bank of America's fault when it fails to treat people fairly. What other type of organization can change the terms of contracts around at will just because they feel like it. If you bought a car from me on a loan at an agreed upon rate, you certainly wouldn't' be happy if there were special laws that allowed me to change the payment around at will. Yet, that is what banks are allowed to do.
As an example, there were thousands of people who were paying their credit card bills on time. Then Congress started talking about passing laws that forced Credit Card companies to stop arbitrarily changing their policies. Credit Card companies, Bank of America included, responded by significantly upping rates on current accounts. Where one might have been paying fifteen percent, he or she would now paying thirty percent. If you are living on a fixed income, that could be a huge matter.
Further, what other type of organization is allowed to borrow money at zero percent from the government [e.g. the tax payers], and turn around and charge the same tax payers thirty percent interest? Bank of America is such an organization.
The issue is one of basic fairness. I feel no sympathy for banks like Bank of America. It is a myth that if you are facing financial trouble, the banks will work with you. They will not. They essentially force people who are willing to pay their debt into bankruptcy.
"Studies show" is the biggest crock phrase ever. So many bloggers and mainstream media use it to make their 'opinion' seem more credible.
I always spend more carefully when using the credit card. Why? Because there is much more accountability in knowing that my husband will see everything when the statement comes. It's far too easy for me to let cash just slip through my fingers, but knowing that every penny I spend will be there for both of us to see is a good reminder to exercise self-control. We are on the verge of paying off our home in our thirties and I can guarantee I would not be enjoying this financial security without my dear husband's conservative nature.
Thanks for sharing that video. Just last week I opened checking, savings, and a holiday CD account at my local credit union. I was sick of dealing with Bank of America's practices. I'm glad I did. (Now to just get everything moved over there…). This video just underscores my feelings on the subject. I want out.
The rep I worked with at the credit union sent me a hand-written card just days after I'd been in saying "Welcome! We're glad you found us." A quick and easy gesture, but I appreciated it.
(Meanwhile, a credit card payment I'd made online with BoA — transferred internally from one account to another, a process which was supposed to take just a few hours — did not post until the day my bill was due, despite sending it SIX DAYS earlier.)
Congrats on the book release!!
Got my copy from amazon and added it to library thing
(as have two other library thing members). Looking forward to it!
I think this blog is great and I have learned a great deal in a short period of time…thank you. The point that resonates in these blogs is that we need to be responsible for ourselves and the way we spend and manage our money. We need to make a commitment to changing these habits. The video about Bank of America bothers me because this is not the spirit of this blog. We should not blame, we don't have time for that. If you don't like the integrity of the organization then leave, move on, there are many banks you can apply to. Everyone is going to find something wrong with any business they work in; you don't have the right to make decisions on your own volition because you don't like a policy. I am an exec and I would never hire that person if I knew they did that. They will do it again, just like the person said. We need to get rid of this type of thinking and be proactive for ourselves. Why spend your time complaining? We have choices, do not get stuck blaming or complaining, spend your energy increasing your knowledge to make yourself better.

Russia will be playing for gold for the first time since 2007 at the World Junior Hockey Championship after dispatching Sweden 4-3 in a shootout in their semi-final encounter. They will now face Team Canada on Wednesday at 7pm et/4pm pt in a game you can catch on TSN.
It will be the eighth time that these two sides have faced each other in the final game since the tournament changed it's format in 1995. Canada holds a 4-3 advantage. Russia has not captured gold in this tournament since beating Canada in the final in 2003 in Halifax.
Denis Golubev scored once in regulation then and the shootout winner while Dimitri Shikin made 25 saves and stopped all three shots he saw in the shootout.
"We have a good locker-room, players respect each other and we have a friendly atmosphere," said Russian coach Valeri Bragin. "When we found our weaknesses during the season, we tried to improve them by bringing in character players, so you see it [Monday] and [Sunday] and that's why we can equalize in the last minutes and manage to win.
"It's all about the character of the team."
It was a game that lacked intensity in the early going as the majority of fans at the half-full HSBC Arena were awaiting the start of the second semi-final game between Canada and the United States later in the evening.
Captain Vladimir Tarasenko opened the scoring for the Russians in the first period while Golubev added to the lead on a contentious play in the second period that was the talking point of this one.
Russia dumped the puck deep into the Swedish zone for what should appeared to be a clear cut automatic icing call. However it was waved off by a linesman allowing Stanislav Bocharov to pounce on the loose puck and feed Golubev who beat Robin Lehner for his second of the tournament.
The Swedish bench erupted in anger demanding an explanation from the officials, however the goal stood and Sweden were in a 2-0 hole.
Following the game Lehner was furious with the officials for waving off the icing.
"The (expletive) refs have a double standard," said an irate Lehner. "They can't scream icing and then call it off. That's not the refereeing standards in a tournament like this. It wouldn't have happened if Canada was playing that's for sure."
While they could have cracked, the Swedes instead turned up the pressure late in the period. They were eventually rewarded as the point shot of draft eligible prospect Adam Larsson eluded Dimitri Shikin in the Russian net pull Sweden within one. The power play marker was Larsson's first of the tournament.
Sweden kept the momentum in the third period as Detroit Red Wings' prospect Calle Jarnkrok redirected a shot past Shikin to square things at two goals apiece.
It appeared as though Sweden had punched their ticket to the gold medal game late in the third. With Dimitri Orlov in the box for slashing, Patrick Cehlin beat a screened Shikin from long range to give the Swedes their first lead of the game.
That lead would be short-lived as moments later the Russians evened things at three apiece as Sergei Kalinin banged home an equalizer after a mad scramble in front of the Swedish net to send this one to an extra frame.
Overtime solved nothing despite several great scoring chances by Sweden.
"We [played] our worst game when we needed it the most," stated Swedish coach Roger Ronnberg. "We played tight, we got caught in their trap system in the neutral zone over and over and didn't get the regular flow in our game.
"It was a difficult game for us, I felt the guys weren't that relaxed and hungry as they had been earlier in the tournament."
Sweden were forced to play without likely top 10 pick in the upcoming NHL draft, Gabriel Landeskog who will miss the remainder of the tournament with a sprained left ankle.
The Russians now move on to the gold medal game on Wednesday against Canada while Sweden will face the United States in the bronze medal game.

I had such a renewing weekend. It started off with a very sleepy time out with friends on Friday night, but evolved (with the help of two mornings of glorious sleeping in) into something beautiful. A comfortable, renewing, stretching the bones and connecting with what matters kind of weekend. I think I'll have to gather my thoughts and save it for another post, but for now, here's my weekly look at a few things I've found in life and over the wonderful world of the interwebs that have made my life a little bit sweeter this past week – enjoy!
1. Etre Touchy. Someone on my twitter tweeted a link to this company that makes gloves specially for those of us who choose to live in near-arctic climates for most of the year – what a great idea! How many times am I fumbling with my camera settings wearing big gloves, or freezing to death when I have to take them off. The timing of this discovery, however, could have been better. Almost makes me sad that winter is over now. I take that back. Cool gloves, but there's not a lot that could make me sad that winter is over! Check them out at their website: http://www.etretouchy.com/ (And there's always next year!)
2. My New Shoe Laces. Bought new shoes this past week as my old ones had a lot of mileage under their belt and they came with these crazy bumpy laces – THAT DON'T COME UNTIED! Seriously, who was the genius who came up with that? I want to give whoever they are a hug.
3. A Thing For. I found this blog this past week and have been going back for hits of inspiration…let me try to explain: inspiration boards + beautiful photos + colour palettes + evoking different moods and atmospheres = love. Or maybe I should just let the photos do the talking… http://athingfor.blogspot.com/
4. To Do Lists. Every Sunday night/Monday morning I sit down and make a list of things I need to – and want to – accomplish in the week ahead. It totally makes me feel prepared; makes me sleep a bit easier at night; makes me feel like I've got a game plan, a challenge – the challenge is to complete the list! And there's nothing better to me than crossing things off. Maybe I'm just an organizational freak. But it works wonders for me.
And speaking of my to do list….I'd better get to get to it! Wishing you a great week……xx

Dockworkers and terminal operators reach agreementSTEVEN GREENHOUSE
THE NEW YORK TIMES | December 29,2012NEW YORK TIMES PHOTO
Cargo ships dock at Port Elizabeth, N.J.,. The International Longshoremens Association, a dockworkers union, reached a deal to avoid a strike that had been set for Sunday.A top federal mediator announced Friday that shipping companies and the East Coast longshoremens union have reached a deal on their main point of dispute and that the union has agreed to drop its threat of a coastwide strike this Sunday.
The mediator said the two sides have agreed to extend the existing contract by 30 days to Jan. 28 to try to reach agreement on other remaining issues, including what the companies say are antiquated work rules.
The partial agreement means that the union, the International Longshoremens Association, will not carry through on its threat to have 14,500 dockworkers go on strike this Sunday at 14 ports stretching from Boston to Houston.
While some significant issues remain, I am cautiously optimistic that they can be resolved in the 30-day extension period, said the mediator, George H. Cohen, the director of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service.
In a news release, Cohen said the two sides had reached an agreement in principle on a particularly contentious issue, known as container royalty payments.
The companies share those payments with union members for each ton of cargo handled. The union had for months denounced the companies proposal to freeze those payments for current longshoremen and eliminate them for all future hires.
The United States Maritime Alliance, a group of shipping companies and terminal owners, says it paid $211 million in container royalties to the dock workers last year, averaging $15,500 per eligible union member.
James A. Capo, the alliances chairman, said the royalty payments amounted to $10 an hour on top of what he said were already generous wages.
This issue seems to have dwarfed anything else, Capo said in an interview this week.
The maritime alliance said the longshoremen earn $124,000 a year on average in wages and benefits, including the royalty payments. Union officials said those figures were exaggerated and put average annual wages at $75,000 before benefits. Under the current contract, most longshoremen earn $32 an hour.
The container payments were created in the 1960s to compensate the longshoremen because many lost their jobs as seaports embraced automation and the use of standardized, 40-foot-long containers to ship goods. Largely as a result of those trends, employment of longshoremen in the Port of New York and New Jersey, the busiest East Coast port, has dropped to 3,500 from 35,000 in the 1960s.
The shipping companies see the royalty payments as a relic of decades past. The union still sees the payments as a core part of wages and as an important way to share productivity gains with members. The payments come to $4.85 a ton, the union said.
Harold Daggett, the unions president, resisted the push by the shippers alliance, known as USMX, to freeze the royalty payments. As the strike deadline approached, he said, USMX seems intent on gutting a provision of our master contract that ILA members fought and sacrificed for years to achieve.
Matthew Shay, president of the National Retail Federation, applauded Fridays announcement but said a contract extension does not provide the level of certainty that retailers and other industries were looking for.
We welcome todays news that a contract extension has been reached, he said in a statement. However, we continue to urge both parties to remain at the negotiating table until a long-term contract agreement is finalized.
His federation and more than 100 other business groups wrote to President Barack Obama last week urging him to invoke his emergency powers under the 1947 Taft-Hartley Act to enjoin a strike. Labor experts said Obama would have been caught between fears that a strike would damage the already-weak economy and worries that enjoining a strike would anger allies in the labor movement.MORE IN National / World BusinessCAMBRIDGE, Mass.

Some aspects of your life may appear more promising than others, but no matter what the factors are, you can always stand to improve your outlook and consequently your approach to handling your life.

It's already been more than 15 years of our good relationship. I still remember our first meet. That was the occasion of my album launch and I invited him as a guest. After that moment, I got to know him personally. He is a good human being. He is very soft and helpful. He is unique with his style. His singing style and voice is exceptionally unique. I really admire his feelings while he sings. I personally feel proud to be his friend. As for his style, I just don't really have any idea; how to express in words. I am a great fan of his style. One thing; I start to wear half – pant after seeing him wearing. Now, it's my favorite and I feel more comfort wearing it.
We are literally from different genre of music. His songs are more touched with pop sort and mine touched more with folk. But still, I like his style and the way he sing. I do my hats off for his song selection. I can proudly say that, he is one of the best singers of Nepal. He looks very jolly with his outlook but at the same time, he is very sentimental and has a deep knowledge about every genre of music. We have been together during our Hongkong tour and after, we did the show together of Pokhara and Kathmandu. I respect him as my elder brother and for his soft and friendly nature.

A robber who claimed to be armed fled a Lancaster sub shop without money when an employee pulled a gun of his own, police said.
Lancaster police said the would-be robber demanded cash from Speed's Sub Shop, at 318 E. King Street, just after 10 p.m. Saturday.
The employee pulled and then pointed his own handgun at the suspect, who immediately fled the store empty handed, police said.
Police continue to look for the robber, who was described as a white man, about 20 years old and approximately 5'11" tall, and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans.

Over the past week all of our core health indicators improved even as the market consolidated. The worst that can be said about this market is that some of our indicators are starting to show over bought readings. However, over bought conditions can persist for a long time so all we can do is watch for them to turn back down. Another interesting point is that perceptions of risk are very low. This is positive for the market. This is one of the things most market participants get wrong. They believe that if everyone is bullish and measures of risk like the Volatility index (VIX) are low the market should fall. The problem with this belief is that those signals are almost never timely. Sentiment can stay high and VIX can stay low for a long period of time before the market corrects. I look for dramatic changes in those types of indicators, not a specific value to warn that the market may fall. Below is a chart of our
Another Week…Same Story
Another week has passed, but the same conditions persist. We're now going into the third week of the same story. Underlying conditions are strengthening while perceptions of risk are rising. Market participants are simply waiting. A few show nervousness and cause some price deterioration, then others see lower prices as a great short term opportunity and buy almost every intra-day dip. I won't go into the details of every indicator this week, but for those of you interested you can read this post since the conditions are the same. There seems to be a general consensus that this budget battle should be compared with July/August 2011. I believe that comparison is incorrect. Everyone seems to have picked up the narrative without taking time to think about conditions in 2011 (so this post falls into the category of eating cat). I believe that the fiscal cliff debacle of December 2012 is a much better guide for the current market. August 2011 had the overhang of bond rates all across Europe skyrocketing
Drowned My Phone
A couple of days ago I fumbled my phone and it fell right into a 24 ounce glass of water. It was completely submerged. I snatched it out as fast as possible and immediately dried off the outside with a paper towel. I figured that it would be dead, but didn't want to lose hope so easily so I opened it up and took out the battery and memory cards. After drying the inside I left it over night under a ceiling fan. The next morning I told my youngest what I'd done and he said he'd heard that putting it in rice would draw out water that might have seeped into the internal bowels of the phone. Since he'd got the information from the internet I figured it must be true. ;) Or at the least it couldn't hurt…so the phone went into a sealed bag of rice for another day. Then came the moment of truth. I put the phone back together and turned on. It worked!! My
Market Tops Give You Plenty of Time
Recently I've seen a lot of people mention on Twitter and various blogs that the market doesn't give you time to get out at tops. I have to politely disagree. If you're an intermediate or long term investor the market will almost always give you warning that it is preparing to consolidate. As an example, here is one of our early warning posts from last October. Often the first warning signs are well ahead of the actual top, so the key to successful investing is in waiting for the weight of evidence to turn before making major changes to your portfolio. Here at Downside Hedge we move money slowly as market conditions change. From mid February we've been seeing signs of deteriorating market conditions. Our canaries in a coal mine post on 2/19 highlighted some of the deterioration that we've been seeing. The S&P 500 Index (SPX) was trading near 1520 at the time. SPX is now near 1565 and most of those conditions are still in place. For a

Understanding Sentiment
Everyday, as the market continues to grind higher, I see sentiment on Twitter and various blogs get more and more incredulous. Almost everyone is talking about the correction that never came or the reasons why the market has to correct…and correct now. The reasons vary, but are almost always a multiple choice grab bag of the following: China's economy is slowing Europe is already in a recession US GDP is falling Greece's bond rates…I mean Spain's bond rates…I mean Italy's bond rates…well somebody's bond rates are rising The US is going to be downgraded by Moody's (today's new rumor…and it has to be true…I read it on Twitter) Oh yeah, Japan. I know I've been talking about Japan for 25 years now, but… The VIX is too low US budget negotiations are coming up soon…and you know that won't end well We've been at the top of the Bollinger bands for several days now AAII investor sentiment is way to bullish Margin debt is at record highs Equity, ETF, and
Dow Theory Buy Signals Do Not Exist
When the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is making new highs and the Dow Jones Transportation Average (DJTA) follows to new highs as well you often seen news reports exclaiming a "Dow Theory Buy Signal". If you use those reports to make investment decisions you're being misled by a writer who doesn't understand Dow Theory. There are no buy signals or sell signals in Dow Theory that indicate a specific date where you should go long or short. Robert Rhea in his book "The Dow Theory" went so far as to warn about buying or selling just after a confirmation of a trend change due to the risk of an abrupt correction near those points. Whenever prices have pushed through into new low ground in bear markets or to new highs in bull markets, it is usually safe to assume the primary direction will be maintained for a considerable time; but every trader should remember that from such new peaks or valleys secondary reactions can occur with amazing rapidity.

Home For the Holidays
My youngest got home from Berkeley yesterday for Christmas break. By planning ahead he saved himself the trouble of packing. Two weeks ago he started wearing the clothes he would need for the holidays then used his duffel bag as a laundry bag. His college education is finally starting to pay off. Maybe he can become an efficiency expert when he graduates.
Would You Buy From a Store that Can't Add?
My wife was doing some Christmas shopping online last night and got the results in the screenshot below. If you haven't picked up the problem, the total should be $37.25. Instead of going to another site to make the purchase, she took the time to call their customer support line and have the five bucks credited back to her. I would have run from the site and avoided it in the future. She has a lot more experience in shopping than I do so all I can figure is she's right and I'm wrong. What would you have done? Another interesting thing she ran into last night was when she tried to buy a gift card online. The website had the card on the site, but when she tried to add it to her cart she got a message stating that item must be purchased in a brick and mortar store. She was shocked…and so was I. How much money are retailers losing because they have a poor online
How Tops are Made
Today we find ourselves watching a market that is in no man's land. After topping in mid September the S&P 500 Index (SPX) suffered a mild correction falling from about 1475 to near 1350. Now it is attempting to rally and is caught between its 50 and 200 day moving averages. Everyone seems to be asking the same questions. Have we topped? Is the bottom in place? Where does the market go next? With that in mind, we thought it would be a good time to talk about a few of our most important observations about market tops over the last 30 years. The first thing we've noticed is that tops take a long time to form. They're brutal to an investor who makes big bets using put options because of the time decay in their options while the market chops around, puts in marginal new highs, then chops around some more. Fortunately they're a bit less painful for an investor using put options, volatility, or other aggressive financial instruments

I have seen many false assumptions about imprinting littering this forum, so I thought that would do was I can to set the record straight. During the course of this post, I want to make the following points:
Before we can address this issue of whether or not Jacob and Quil are pedophiles, we first have to have a clear definition of a pedophile.
The following definition was taken from Encyclopedia of Mental Disorders:
Pedophilia is a paraphilia that involves an abnormal interest in children. A paraphilia is a disorder that is characterized by recurrent intense sexual urges and sexually arousing fantasies generally involving: nonhuman objects; the suffering or humiliation of oneself or one's partner (not merely simulated); or animals, children, or other nonconsenting persons. Pedophilia is also a psychosexual disorder in which the fantasy or actual act of engaging in sexual activity with prepubertal children is the preferred or exclusive means of achieving sexual excitement and gratification. It may be directed toward children of the same sex or children of the other sex. Some pedophiles are attracted to both boys and girls. Some are attracted only to children, while others are attracted to adults as well as to children.
Read more: http://www.minddisorders.com/Ob-Ps/Pedophilia.html#ixzz0SYKjrlTc
Now that we know what the word means we can analyze Jacob and Quil's behavior in light of the definition. Jacob and Quil are not in love with children; rather, they are in love with women who happen to be children at the present time. That they love people and not an age is very important. Jacob is not excited by Renesmee's age; he is besotted by her. As Renesmee and Claire grow into full womanhood Jacob and Quil will grow to love them more and more. If Jacob and Quil were truly pedophiles, when they reached a mature age, they would loose their appeal to these men.
Although Jacob and Quil are totally devoted to Renesmee and Claire, they do not have sexual urges or sexually arousing fantasies about them. There only desire is to give them whatever they want to make them happy. Neither Jacob or Quil have any intention of entering into a sexual relationship with Renesmee or Claire until they are physically, emotionally, and intellectually ready for it.
This is much more like an arranged marriage where the husband is significantly older than the wife and the marriage is arranged before or shortly after the child is born. I am thinking of the Disney version of Sleeping Beauty. I see the young prince looking into the cradle of his future bride. Now that isn't pedophilia because the prince isn't thinking about having sex with young child, but will wait until they are both old enough for marriage.
The bottom line is no sexual fantasies about children equals no pedophilia.
I have seen may people try to say that imprinting is not about procreation, but it most certainly is. There are two theories by the two people with the most information about imprinting.
Sam's theory is that wolves imprint to elevate the chances that the gene is passed on and ensure the continuity of the pack.
Billy's theory is that wolves imprint to elevate the chances of stronger wolves and improve the strength of the pack.
Both theory revolve around procreation. Because every viable theory coming from a knowledgeable source centers around procreation and inbreeding is bad for the children, I do not believe that a wolf would imprint on near kin. Actually I believe this is why neither Sam or Jacob imprinted upon Leah. All of them are direct decedents of a member of the last pack. Both Leah and Jacob have pack members on both sides of their families. I personally believe that Sam imprinted on Emily, a member of the Maka tribe, because the Quiluetes were getting a little too in bread. The pack needed strong new fresh blood and you don't get any stronger, newer, or fresher than Renesmee. I believe that this is the primary reason that Jacob imprinted on Renesmee, and it really didn't have anything to do with the fact that she is Bella's daughter. Remember in Forever Dawn New Moon and Eclipse didn't happen, and Bella and Jacob never fell in love, and Jacob imprinted on Renesmee anyway.
There is much made about how Renesmee and Claire don't get a choice. Of course that ignores the fact that Quil and Jacob didn't get a choice either. Actually Renesmee and Claire have more free will than Quil and Jacob. They could reject their wolf; even though, their wolf could never forsake them.
Claire and Renesmee do not belong to Quil and Jacob. It is the other way around. Quil and Jacob belong to Claire and Renesmee.
There have been people comparing Jacob's relationship with Renesmee as though he were grooming her. The reality is that she is grooming him.
I think were the imprintee's safety is not involved the imprinting wolf will give the imprintee whatever she wants. (The safety clause is the only reason I can think of why Jacob wasn't rushing to give Renesmee to Bella when it was obvious that Renemee wanted Bella.)
Pedophilia is never OK or acceptable; however, the wolves are not pedophiles because they do not have sexual fantasies about children.

Former Anne Arundel County Executive John Leopold has paid a $75,000 fine for misconduct.
Court records show he paid the fine late last month, the Capital of Annapolis reported.
Leopold resigned in February and served 30 days in jail and two weeks of home detention for two counts of criminal misconduct. Leopold forced members of his security detail to perform campaign work and another county employee to empty his urinary catheter bag, prosecutors said.
As part of the sentence, Judge Dennis Sweeney ordered Leopold to pay a $100,000 fine to the state, or a $75,000 fine to the county.
Leopold is completing 400 hours of community service at the Anne Arundel Food Bank.

"It's a good weight... for a small woman." -Dorian Yates
Thursday, August 07, 2003(Legs)
Weight =167.5
Squats (325/4!)
These were a lot better than the set I did with 325 a few weeks back. The 4 reps were really solid and I might have been able to get another if I really wanted to push things.
1-Legged Smith Machine Calf Raises (3 plates per side / 6!)
Coordination is still difficult when doing these one legged.
Leg Extensions (190/8.5!)
This machine has a range of motion I don't really care for. Anyway, it is improvement.
Leg Curls(130/8!)
The 8 reps here felt pretty easy. In fact, they felt a lot easier than the less reps I did with the same weight from last week.
Hot Chicks:
1. This one wasn't at the gym, but had some brown hair tied back with some short and tight jean shorts. She was bending over to do some yard work. I got picked off as I drove by.
2. This one wore a sports bra and had some wavy dark brown hair tied back. She was maybe around 30-ish, but was too anorexic. She had what I call "corpse shoulders" where you lose what muscle you would naturally have in your delts even if you didn't work out. The sad thing though is that due to too many people being fat, someone like her is actually attractive even though she has passed a point where you start looking worse as you lose weight.
4. This one had a blue tank top with some navy shorts and nice lean body mass in the legs. However she carried a decent amount of fat to go with that lean body mass. She had some wavy brown hair tied back.
5. Miss Doll Face Karate Chick was going in as I was leaving, but she is still disqualified.
The winner of the day goes to Miss Weed Queen. She wasn't in the gym, but didn't have the significant drawbacks that the other 3 have.
Gym Mysteries:
1. There were curls in the squat rack.
Other Stuff:
1. I saw a really little kitten that I think was lost in a corn field today. It was a pretty small kitten (smaller than what they usually are when they can be taken away from their mother) Hopefully it can meet back up with its mother or at least know how to get by on its own. What I really hope was the reason is that it was not lost and just wanted someone to give it attention. (which seems to be the case a lot with stray animals)

clvmike19: I believe they play something like September 27th. I know it is Purdue's 4th game, which seems later than usual since it usually is the second or third for both teams. Some of the fans were talking about the possibly of College Game Day coming to town because it looks to be the only match up (as of now) between two top 25 teams that week. Someone said what I think will happen though, "That will be the week they stay in the studio"
FFeJ: I'm moving back to DBs to give myself variety in my routine and also because sometimes spotters help you too much. (which makes it tougher to gauge your progress due to differences in spots)
5-9 170
Well I cant wait for the season to start. The Brownies play tomorrow night at 8pm in Tennessee. Thatll be cool. Whats up with the karate chick? I didnt catch her DQ. What was it for? Ever think of hooking up with that one or any at the gym?

Weight = 166.5
Bench Press (260/2.5!)
I'm pleased with this set. I didn't hit failure on my own on the 3rd rep before the spotter jumped in, but probably wouldn't have gotten it on my own. I remember getting 250/2 when I got 270 for a max. The charts seem to underestimate my max on bench press. This set today makes me more confident in my estimated max for bench press. I think I could pull off 280 for a single since there seemed to be a 20 pound difference between my 2 rep max and my 1 rep max from before. 285 is also not out of the picture to get before I go back to school, but I'll probably end up with 280 for a max.
DB Military (60/13)
Even though these are coming after bench press and I can't really compare them to my old DB military (which was on my first set), I can say that this keeps getting better. I know variations in rest times can alter how well I do, but I'm sure things would have evened out by now. Since my numbers keep going up, it is safe to say that I'm getting better here.
DB Laterals (30/13!)
I probably won't go up to the 35s until I get 17 or 18 reps. Plus, I'll have to get used to different DBs which may drop my numbers slightly.
DB Incline (70/12)
Wow! These really jumped up after pretty much staying the same all summer. I'm wondering if the creatine I started to take again may have given me better endurance. My bad endurance usually makes me weaker by the final sets.
Nautilus Abs (210/17!)
Like other days, it has not been hard to add a rep to my previous best.
Hot Chicks:
1. None
Gym Mysteries:
1. None here either
Other Stuff:
1. I got a towing part for my Jeep. I probably won't be using it, but it just added some value to my vehicle due to it having an extra option now.
2. I'm still curious on if the creatine I started taking will add a surge to my strength like it did the first time I took it. I took it 2 years ago and had a big jump in strength over the month. It pretty much didn't really do anything after that. I quit taking it last December.
The Road to College Football:
14 days
It's only two weeks until Grambling plays San Jose State (who cares) and Kansas State plays California. Actually, I'd like to see a non-division IA team such as Grambling beat that racist coach San Jose State has if I remember right. I'm shocked that K-State is actually playing a division 1-A team in the non conference this year since their non-conference schedule is the laughing stock of college football every year.
I'm watching that great game where Michigan played Colorado in 94 back when Colorado had Kordell Stewart. That was an awesome hail mary at the end of the game. In pro football tonight my Colts play Da Bears. I'm sure it probably won't be on TV.
clvmike19: I noticed the Colts play the Browns on the first week of the regular season. The karate chick got the DQ because she put up a curtain when she was doing a workout on her own. That just seemed a little arrogant to me, so I'm waiting for her to prove me wrong. I don't really talk to anyone in the gym when I work out unless someone approaches me.
I have been complaining about how difficult Purdue's schedule is this year with visits to Michigan, Ohio State, and Wisconsin, but Notre Dame may have an even harder schedule. I honestly don't think any team in college football could run the table on either schedule.
5-9 170
Ouch. Away at the Big House, Camp Randall, and the Shoe! Im sorry man. Yeah the Brownies play your Colts. Im sure the Browns will blow it somehow They always do.
Well two more hours until Cleveland Browns Football begins again for 2003! I guess Ill watch this old Minnesota/Northwestern game on ESPN Classic. I Love Football!

Joshua Atkins, a fourth-grader at Joseph Martin Elementary, understands how important it is to listen, concentrate and use time-management skills. His teacher, Elaine Dasher, encourages and motivates students as she introduces the standard/element for each lesson taught. While completing chores on his parents' farm, Joshua uses skills he has learned in school such as calculating perimeter and area, understanding the characteristics of geometric figures, measuring distance, comprehension of information read, identifying simple machines and explaining their uses (lever, pulley, wheel, gear, etc). Joshua said he is having so much fun he forgets he's working.

Where are the "wild things?"
They were at Taylors Creek Elementary on Sept. 30. The second graders in Melissa Aspinwall, Latricia Cobb, Jessica Nicholson, Jennifer Purcell, Katie Purvis, and Amy Yarbrough's classes performed an adaptation of Maurice Sendak's children's classic "Where the Wild Things Are."
Thirty-one students were invited to Midway Middle's First 9 Weeks Accelerated Reader Ice Cream Social Picnic on Oct. 24.
Celestine "Cela" Barrett, a third-grade teacher at Jordye Bacon Elementary School in Hinesville, was recently named local teacher of the year by the Hinesville Wal-Mart/Sam's Club/Distribution Center.
Coastal Electric Cooperative and its foundation began awarding more than $20,000 in Bright Ideas grants Oct. 24 to teachers in Bryan, Liberty and McIntosh counties.
During the NAACP's Oct. 16 candidate forum, a member of the audience questioned school board candidates about the Liberty County high schools' inability to make state AYP math requirements this year.
It's good thing Rick Evans says he "thrives on stress" because his job as director of maintenance for Liberty County schools had plenty of it.
On Sept. 16, the first of six sessions of PASSport (parents assuring student success) began with an introduction of the program. The evening's theme was "Winning with a Positive Attitude."
Six students from SGMS were inducted as new members of the National Junior Honor Society in a ceremony held at school Oct. 16. Members were selected by the chapter's faculty council for meeting standards of scholarship, service, leadership, citizenship and character.
The Liberty County Technology Office has begun a new program wherein its staff is recognizing teachers for their use of technology in their classrooms.
Students in Adriana Poole's fourth grade social studies class at Taylors Creek Elementary constructed Native American shelters upon completion of their unit of study on Native Americans.
LUDOWICI - The Long County Board of Education decided at its October meeting, to nix the idea of building a combined elementary/middle school and instead is looking at the possibility of building a new high school.
During its monthly meeting, the Liberty County Board of Education approved a new, large-scale data warehousing computer system for tracking and analyzing students' standardized test scores and performances. The system costs just under $45,000, which includes the initial installment and the first year of data collection. According to the board's projected budget, the data warehouse will cost around $20,000 a year to maintain.
Midway Middle School will have a math and science family fun night, "The Amazing Math & Science Race," on Thursday, Oct. 30.
Although the 2014-15 academic year now is in full swing, teachers, school leaders, parents and students still can access free, interactive digital textbooks through the Georgia Department of Education's website.

Full quote:
by American Mythos
CBS news: In an appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, President Obama told the Comedy Central host Thursday that the response to the Sept. 11 terror attacks in Benghazi, Libya was not optimal. Stewart told the president, in regard to the administration's performance in the aftermath of the attacks, that quote - I would say and even you would admit it was not the optimal response - at least to the American people as far as all of us being on the same page. Here is what I will say, if four Americans get killed it is not optimal, the president responded. And we are going to fix it, all of it. And what happens during the course of a presidency, you know the government is a big operation at any given time, something screws up and you make sure you find out what's broken and you fix it. - end quote It's obvious to anyone who isn't a disengaged headline skimmer (which is how coughlins gets all his news and what informs his opinions of world affairs) that the president was speaking about the response to the attack, not the deaths themselves.

After posting a video off of the J Dilla CD we get another track released the day before the album is released. Another Detroit inspired track which seems to be the big theme of this album. The beat is obviously on point and light years ahead of a lot of producers. Snag this album tomorrow and support a production legend.

Goerge Mason High School?
Chronicles of Dust
Yup! Good old George Mason High School of Falls Church VA!!
I graduated a few years back. My little brother still goes there. Are you attending there or are you from another local school?? --J. Murchie
Hey Greenhorn. No, I don't go to school there. I only ask because I've lived here for 21 years and never heard of it. My wife graduated from George Mason University 2 years back and I graduated from South Lakes 11 years ago and I even played a couple of sports in the region for SL, and I just had never heard of the high school. It just struck me as strange.

Haha!! Yeah, George Mason is a pretty small school. When I was a student there were only 400-500 students from grades 9-12. George Mason is really tiny unlike the rest of the public schools in the D.C. area. I had a couple friends who went to South Lakes. I'm actually kind of surprised that you have not heard of the school based on its reputation. It has been ranked nationally numerous times as number 1 in the country for G.P.A. averages. That is probably due to the fact that the size of the school is that of a large private school. I lived in Falls Church all my life until I moved out here to California last summer. Good to hear from a fellow Northern Virginian!! --J. Murchie
