I'm a huge fan of investing in stocks, as you can probably tell by my almost 100% allocation to the asset class in myFreedom Fund. More specifically, I'm very enthusiastic about investing in ownership stakes with high quality companies that have a history of rewarding shareholders by paying out a portion of profits via dividends. Furthermore, I stick to an even narrower universe of these high quality companies that not only pay these dividends, but raise them on a regular basis (at least annually). I've discussed before why I'm such a huge fan of this strategy, known as dividend growth investing. But today I'm going to reveal one of the biggest reasons I'm so enamored with investing in stocks as an asset class, and this can be broadly applied to stocks that pay dividends or do not pay dividends.
With investing in stocks, one needs to consider that the potential upside is almost unlimited while the potential downside is limited to only your original capital investment. You can invest $1,000 with "Company X" and this equity stake can only do one of three things: it can appreciate in value, it can depreciate in value or the value can stay static.
Obviously the least desirable of these three outcomes is that the value depreciates. But this is the true beauty in investing in stocks. Your stock can only depreciate to $0, but nothing more. A stock cannot go below $0. Therefore your biggest downside is losing all of your capital. If "Company X" goes bankrupt and your entire equity stake becomes worthless (actually highly unlikely in reality) you lose all the capital you initially invested. In this case you lose $1,000.
But what if the company becomes wildly successful?
Let's say you hold your equity stake in "Company X" for 20 years and the company increases in value by a factor of 10. That means your $1,000 investment becomes $10,000. That's a capital gain of $9,000. And if "Company X" pays dividends your initial investment has a gain that is even larger than this (especially if you're reinvesting the dividends). You risked $1,000 and gained $9,000 in this case. Think it doesn't work like that? Doesn't happen in real life? Think again.
Let's take a look at a real-life example.
You could have invested $1,000 in Altria Group Inc. (MO) (then known as Philip Morris) on 5/25/1983, which would have bought you 16.88 shares (closing price $59.25). That was 20 years ago. Those shares are now worth $15,023.80 on a split-adjusted basis (you now have 405.06 shares). That means you only put $1,000 on the line, but received over $14,000 for a gain of 6,390.83%. In this case the downside was 100%, but the upside turned out to be over 6,000%. (Source)
Obviously this is cherry picking a name from the past, but the point remains: your downside to investing in stocks is limited only to the capital you invested, while the upside is theoretically unlimited. Therefore, I feel the reward to investing in stocks far outweighs the potential risks. And this risk can be mitigated further by diversifying your capital into many different companies. I personally plan to have equity ownership stakes with at least 40 different companies by the time I'm done investing fresh capital and living off my dividend income.
This risk/reward relationship is one of many reasons I personally prefer stocks over every other asset class available.
For comparison sake, let's take a look at some of the other popular asset classes available:
With bonds, this upside/downside relationship does not exist in nearly the same manner. Your upside is limited by the coupon (yield) the bond gives you, as well as any potential capital appreciation that may exist by way of interest rate changes which could make your bonds more valuable if yields on new bonds fall (obviously unlikely looking forward as we are in a low interest rate environment). Bonds do not allow you to share in the growth of a company, however, so potential appreciation on your bonds is much less than stocks. The downside of bonds is a bit more limited than stocks, though, as bonds have a higher ranking in the capital structure of a business, meaning that if a business goes bankrupt bond holders are first in line to get reimbursed. However, the risk of capital depreciation is still there, and bonds are more sensitive to interest rates. Bonds have a tighter upside/downside spread in my opinion, meaning the downside and upside are both more limited than stocks. But I don't want limited upside. I want unlimited upside. Bonds, in my opinion, are much better for capital preservation, rather than capital growth.
Physical real estate certainly has the potential for significant upside, but real estate is hyper-local meaning that values on real estate are specific to a geographical region. Also, real estate is much different from a business. A business produces revenue, and therefore profits, via products or services that it sells to the public or other businesses. Real estate is simply shelter. It doesn't actually produce anything. Real estate can produce rental income for the owner, however, so income can be squeezed from this asset class. For the most part, residential real estate valuations are tied to incomes. If incomes fall, residence values fall in kind. If incomes rise, people can afford more luxurious abodes, and therefore usually bid up the prices of local real estate. Also, it's much more difficult to diversify with physical real estate as real estate holdings typically tie up a large amount of capital due to the costs of one physical holding. It's relatively easy to pay $7 to buy $1,400 worth ofChevron Corporation (CVX) stock. You can't really do this with real estate. The transaction (friction) costs are much higher, and in most cases you're not talking about fractional ownership like you are with publicly owned companies. You also have ongoing maintenance and tax costs. Because of this, I would more likely prefer to own real estate via Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) that behave and trade much more like stocks.
Overall, the upside/downside relationship with real estate is mixed. Your downside is not as great as stocks, because the odds of a property going to $0 in value is almost impossible. However, you could purchase a property that needs unforeseen repairs fairly quickly that can drain any available spare capital you have, and local markets could make it difficult for the asset to appreciate appreciably over the rate of inflation. Also, the odds of physical real estate appreciating at the rate of a group of wonderful companies with fantastic products/services and ones that operate with sufficiently high margins is very unlikely. This opinion is backed by the Case-Shiller Home Price Index which shows that home prices as an aggregate havebarely appreciated over the rate of inflation going back over 100 years. Also, this doesn't take into account the value of your time, as physical real estate tends to be more hands-on than stock ownership. Overall, I view the downside of real estate more limited than stocks, but the upside also not nearly as attractive as what stocks have potential for. Also, the difficulties of diversification, high transaction costs, hands-on nature and need for local market knowledge are traits that make real estate as an asset class less attractive than stocks (in my opinion).
I'm not even going to discuss gold or other physical metals. I've revealed my distaste for gold before. Upside and downside are completely dependent on what the next guy down the line is willing to pay for your unproductive metal.
And cash is obviously unattractive for many reasons. It will only depreciate over time, as inflation eats away at its purchasing power. So, you're guaranteed to slowly bleed money while your upside is basically non-existent. Cash is useful, however, when there are few attractively valued opportunities out there. When markets fall, bringing assets back into valuations that are near historical norms, cash can be useful to take advantages of opportunities. Cash is only good when you're turning it into an appreciating asset at attractive valuations looking out over the long-term.
Some people may think I'm crazy to put almost all my wealth into stocks. But I don't think I'm crazy at all. I think stocks represent the best possible opportunity to build wealth in a capitalist society. Owning pieces of high quality companiesand reinvesting the profits they send you via rising dividends is simply a fantastic way to build your wealth over the long haul. Picking a great group of high quality companies that pay, and increase, dividends while allowing time and compounding to work its magic will almost certainly provide you the greatest risk/reward relationship available. Your downside is limited only to original capital you've invested, while the upside is limited to the potential of the company you're investing in, the price at which Mr. Market is willing to pay for your ownership stake in said business, whether or not you were reinvesting dividends and your own emotional limitations (trying to time the market). Buying and holding quality companies for the long-term whileignoring the noise will eliminate almost every single potential drag on your investment upside.
How about you? Do you enjoy this upside/downside relationship in stocks?

Sarah Montgomery Lewis Wilhite, 95, died on Friday, January 4, 2013.
Born July 31, 1917, in Marshall County, Tn., she was preceded in death by her parents, Hoyle Montgomery and Lizzie Long Montgomery; by her brother, Thomas Newton Montgomery, Sr.; and by her first husband, George Robert Lewis, and second husband, Oscar Robert Wilhite, both of whom she cared for with unwavering strength and love.
Mrs. Wilhite graduated from the University of Chattanooga in 1939. She earned a Masters in Education in 1971 from the University of Chattanooga and was a member of Delta Kappa Gamma. She taught for 40 years in the Hamilton County School system, primarily the fifth grade at John A. Patton, Signal Mountain Elementary and Thrasher Elementary Schools. Mrs. Wilhite has a place in the hearts of the many children she has taught; few households in the Signal Mountain area have not in some way been the beneficiaries of Mrs. Wilhite's positive influence.
Mrs. Wilhite has held affiliations with the League of Women Voters, Signal Mountain Garden Club, and Symphony Guild and has served as a tutor in the R.E.A.D. Program. She was a member of the Signal Mountain Golf and Country Club and was a member of the Tennessee Golden Girls Golf Group, having taken up the sport in later years. Mrs. Wilhite played golf well into her 94th year of life. For many years she was an active member of the Ladies Golf Association at the Signal Mountain Golf and Country Club. Throughout the years she participated in numerous golf events, receiving many awards for her outstanding play. On two occasions, her Seniors group won the Tennessee Senior Women's Tournament.
Among her most cherished relationships were those within the Signal Mountain Presbyterian Church, where she held membership since 1942. She served in many capacities there, including as an elder since 1991 and as a president of the Women of the Church. Under Mrs. Wilhite's leadership the women's service group "In His Service" was formed to carry out various projects for those in need and to encourage the use of each member's own gifts and talents to bring joy to others. She long worked in the Children's and Youth Departments at the Church. This year was the first year of Vacation Bible School that Mrs. Wilhite missed helping in some capacity. Since becoming a resident of the Alexian Village in 2001, she had made daily visits to the health care center, visiting patients and bringing them a loving greeting. Mrs. Wilhite's has been a life of service to others.
Remaining to cherish her memory and legacy are her brother, Hoyle Fleming Montgomery, Jr., of Lewisburg; sister-in-law, widow of her brother, Thomas, Kathleen Hill Montgomery, also of Lewisburg; stepdaughters Ava Wilhite Navin (Tom), Rita Wilhite-Foster (Richard), and Roberta Wilhite Esslinger (Sam); niece, Sarah Montgomery Lavender (Timothy); two nephews: Thomas Newton Montgomery, Jr. (Sherrie), and Robert Hoyle Montgomery (Emma); five great-nephews, three great-nieces, and three great-great-nephews.
Mrs. Wilhite's family is grateful to the congregation of Signal Mountain Presbyterian Church for their support and for the love and care they have shown her during her life and throughout her illness. Thank you also to the Residents of Alexian Village, their staff and her personal caregivers.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, Jan. 12, from 10-11 a.m. in the Greeting Room of the Signal Mountain Presbyterian Church. A Celebration of Life Service will follow in the church sanctuary.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Signal Mountain Presbyterian Church Children's or Youth Program.
Arrangements are by Lane Funeral Home, Ashland Terrace.

I seem to have a problem "getting it done". I find that I am able to push myself into a seemingly good position, only to never find a way to checkmate and get the game over. In my hesitation my opponent manages to find some weakness and pulls off a win. What are some things to look for when you are in a good position and how do you turn that into a game ender? thanks in advance
You just have to know how to use all the pieces together. Try practicing some end game tactics, study your past games as well and see where you made mistakes.
when you are winning just learn to simplify as much as possible. if youre up a minor piece, a forced queen trade might be better than winning an extra pawn for example.

Cat Found After 3 Years, Long Island Lost Pet [PHOTOS]
A Long Island cat who had been missing for three years, has returned home.
A Long Island cat who had been missing for three years returned home to his owner on Jan. 17.
Charlene Lanigan, 64, never gave up hope after her cat McGee ran away from her home in January of 2010.
"I was devastated," she said. "He's a wonderful cat. He's friendly. He's beautiful and when he didn't come back, being it was January, it was cold, I was heartbroken."
While Lanigan stopped passing out missing cat fliers in her neighborhood and closed her doggy door at night for over a year after McGee went missing, she was still optimisitic about the cat's return. However, she was never prepared for the phone call she recieved from the East Islip animal shelter, exactly three years after McGee left home.
Bobby Boyle, 40, of East Islip said he came across McGee wandering around his background after superstorm Sandy. He said he knew the cat was too nice to be a stray. Boyle then started searching on Craiglist and other websites for missing notices about a friendly, fluffy cat.
"This is an expensive, nice cat," Boyle remembers thinking when he found the cat. "What is he doing here?"
Boyle said he took the cat to the Town of Islip Animal Shelter on Jan. 16. When he asked the shelter to scan the McGee's microchip, Lanigan's name and number popped up.
"I was there in 10 minutes; I flew to the shelter," Lanigan said, calling Boyle "my hero."
"My body went numb," she said. "Bobby returned him to the shelter three years to the day that he went missing. It was just amazing, absolutely amazing. He came in the house like he never left."
Lanigan said the only difference with McGee was that his tail was less fluffy and his meow was hoarse.
Shelter supervisor Joanne Daly said finding a missing pet after so long is quite uncommon but does happen. She said a few years ago, the shelter took in a shih tzu mix that had been missing for four years, and reunited a dog and the owner.
"The woman reported the dog missing -- I believe she was from Queens -- and the dog was found out here," she said. "Small dogs, nice cats, people find these, and they just pick them up and keep them, or give them away."
Lanigan, who successfully beat breast cancer in 2012, said McGee made her sure of one thing: "Never give up hope for anything in your life. There's always hope."

October 30th, 2014, 23:04 Posted By: wraggsterNintendo president says handheld refresh not needed because original 3DS is "at an earlier stage of popularization" overseas
Earlier this month, Nintendo launched the New 3DS and New 3DS LL in Japan, bringing an extra thumbstick, better 3D functionality, and added horsepower to the company's line of handhelds. In a post-earnings briefing with investors today, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said the new systems combined to sell 234,000 units in their first week on sale, more than any other hardware refresh the company has ever released.
Despite that promising start, Iwata said Nintendo won't be launching the systems in the US and Europe this year. He also acknowledged that Western gamers would only see a relatively thin slate of big 3DS releases this holiday season (just this month's Super Smash Bros. along with next month's Pokemon Omega Ruby and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire).
"Based on these observations, some might wonder if, apart from the domestic market, the sales of Nintendo 3DS will really be able to gain momentum in the overseas markets," Iwata said.
Iwata then noted that the 3DS is at a different "stage of popularization" in Japan than in the US and Europe. The handheld is nearing lifetime sales of 17 million in Japan, or about equal with the lifetime sales of the GameBoy Advance. As a result, Iwata said the 3DS' addressable market has nearly been reached, and the launch of the New 3DS was necessary to grow sales once again.
"To the contrary, neither of the cumulative sales figures of Nintendo 3DS in the U.S. nor Europe is more than that in Japan despite, based on the historical performance, bigger sales potential," Iwata said. "In short, Nintendo 3DS is still at an earlier stage of popularization in these two markets. Also, the difference in market characteristics shows up in the software sales pace. In the Japanese market, both hardware and software tend to sell during a short period along with a quick spread of information on them. In the U.S. and Europe, on the other hand, highly acclaimed games are likely to be longtime sellers."

title and video should be pretty self-explanatory, but just in case : the exploit that gets us code execution now works on the new 3ds, meaning an N3DS version of our homebrew launcher should be doable !
unfortunately, this was the easy part and getting everything else running will be insanely tedious and take a fair amount of time (a few weeks, by my estimate).
so essentially, this is a nice step forward, we're still on track and things are looking positive ! but we're not quite there yet, so sit tight.

Nintendo's website now allows you to buy certain downloadable games directly, forgoing the need to hop on to the eShop on your 3DS or Wii U. Eagle-eyed types saw a new "Buy Digital" button on Nintendo's North American site this week, allowing you to either buy and receive an eShop code or tie the purchase to your Nintendo Network ID. As a FAQ explains, if you use your NNID, that leaves the game ready to redeem and download on your Nintendevice.
As Tiny Cartridge details, you can also use your browser to pre-order certain eShop games. At the mo', this includes games like Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker,Super Smash Bros. Wii U and Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.Nintendo hasn't released a list of the games supported by the service, but did note it's currently only available for "select first-party titles."

October 11th, 2014, 22:54 Posted By: wraggsterToday in Japan, Nintendo released a new Nintendo 3DSer, make that, the New Nintendo 3DS. I bought one for Kotaku, so let's see how it sizes up to its predecessor.
At last month's Tokyo Game Show, I checked out the New Nintendo 3DS XL and was quite impressed with what I saw. While I've only had the NN3DS for a few hours, you can expect more detailed impressions later this week.
Until then, here are some photos that should give you a good idea of just how big the NN3DS lines up to the 3DS. Hint:
And here are comparison pics of the actual hardware:
One of my favourite things so far about the New Nintendo 3DS is it's covered in matte plastic. It's smooth and easy to the touch. While I like the way the original 3DS looks, the plastic can get sweaty after extended periods of play. Those who like a glossy plastic can swap out the faceplates to something else. Everybody is happy?
October 11th, 2014, 22:43 Posted By: wraggsterFuture Publishing has announced the closure of Official Nintendo Magazine and its attendant website, with the last issue, the 114th, to go on sale this month. The website will be shut down on November 11.
The magazine's subscribers will have their subscriptions transferred automatically to Gamesmaster magazine if they're not cancelled before October 17. Future has promised to try and find ONM staff jobs elsewhere in the company, insisting that the closure is not part of the recent wave of redundancies which have struck the publisher.
"The last issue of Official Nintendo Magazine, which launched in the UK in 2002, will be in stores on 14th October," reads a statement on the ONM website. "Throughout its tenure, Official Nintendo Magazine has continued to bring fans, news, interviews, previews and reviews on both new and retro Nintendo hardware and software.
"Nintendo will continue to speak directly to fans via Nintendo Direct, our social media and online channels and public events.
"Nintendo UK and Future will continue to work closely on future projects across Gamesradar.com, CVG, Edge, Kotaku UK and Gamesmaster."

Hot Sheet: Great and Powerful
BY Advocate.com Editors
March 08 2013 2:43 PM ET
5. BOOKS: Mundo Cruel
Luis Negrón's amusing collection of short stories weave gritty, funny, and intimate tales from the eclectic island of Puerto Rico. The stories, while all so unique from each other, share an undercurrent of sexuality that provides a true air of authenticity; the real Puerto Rico, not the fortress-like resorts or tchotchke shops of Old San Juan. Mundo Cruel was such a success in Spanish that Random House will release this English-language edition on Tuesday.

Recent Beach Haven reviews
"Where do you begin to rate this home? Classy decorating. Fresh, clean and bright. Convenient to shops and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood. Short walk to an excellent beach. Ocean and bay views. Friendly, personable and very accommodating owners. We plan on repeat rentals in this extraordinary beach house."Guest: Ed&Geri Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: October 8, 2014View listing
"My family loves the beach and this was the perfect house for us! There is plenty of room for the 9 of us ( 6 adults and 3 children). We could all be in the living room and dining area comfortably. The front to back deck let us enjoy the ocean views AND sunsets over the bay! We watched dolphins swim by on two occasions! The house is clean, well maintained. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, flatware, pots and pans. All appliances in good working order. Great water pressure in the showers. There is an outside shower for rinsing off the sand. The house is between two beach access ways which makes going to and from the beach so easy! I would guess 2 minutes to the water. The owners of this property were responsive and so helpful from my first email inquiry to the end of our stay! Such a pleasure to work with Raju! The house is located on the southern end of the island which is mostly residential. It is a very quiet area, away from the hustle and bustle, but a short drive to the shops and activities. Don't miss the Show Place Ice Cream Parlor and eat at/get take out from Joey's Pizza! Best beach vacation ever and we all hope to return to this house to make more family memories!"Guest: Karen P. Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: July 15, 2014View listing
"Cannot recommend this house more highly. The incredibly gracious and thoughtful owners have made sure it is super comfortable and has everything you could need. The spacious deck right on the marina is heavenly and it is a quick an easy walk to the beautiful ocean beach and a basically private smaller bay beach. Every member of my family from age 8 to 85 loved it!"Guest: Liz Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 21, 2014View listing
"stayed at the beach haven belle with two families (each having 3 children), so in total 6 kids under 6 years old! yes, we are adventurous, but the house made it easy with lots of beds/bedrooms and a massive television hooked up with cable and wifi. we rented two cribs from a local store, and everyone else stayed in beds since there are lots of options, including twins and largers. we arrived to a house with lots of the little necessities, like washing machine and dishwasher detergent and then we went to murphy's (only a couple blocks away) for anything else, including groceries. and we got lunch for the adults at pearl street market almost every day (so close!). went to fantasy island twice, played mini golf, went to the arcade, went to the local concert a clock away (wednesday nights)....everything so close and easy. beach badges waiting for us at the house too."Guest: safgator Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 27, 2014View listing

Beach Haven Vacation Rentals are Shore to Please You
The beach, the shore, the waves, the sand. It's difficult not to dream of a vacation with these ingredients. Beach Haven vacation rentals on Long Beach Island NJ have all of these elements and, as we way, they are "shore" to please you. There are Beach Haven vacation rentals for traveling groups of every size. Cottages can be rented for couples or even individuals who are trying to get away. There are also very large Beach Haven vacation rentals that can accommodate reunion groups. Of course, there are also many options that fall between these two extremes.
Fun: On Or Off The Beach
In addition to the amenities available in Beach Haven vacation rentals, there are also many fun things to do in the area. The Thundering Surf Waterpark, for example, is a great attraction for young people and families. There's also Mr. Tee's Putt & Play? and Surf City Island Golf?. So if you want to get off of the sand for a day, there are lots of fun options. Just don't get caught in a sand trap!

Dorian Finch (closing set), Mosaics
Hotel Utah
500 4th Street
San Francisco, CA, 94107
This event is 21 and over
Hunters. is a San Francisco alt-folk band.
We've just finished our second album, Treeline.
It's about love and breakups and liars and cheats and mental illness and housing shortages and we even have a song about a best selling novel on there.
In the past, some small music websites have said things like this about us:
"Their brand of folk music is second to none!"
"If you're a fan of alt-country you're going to fall in love with this. It's likely that it will be your best friend on your next big road trip."
But we think you should come listen to us and see what you think.
For a taste, you can check out our first album here: http://welcometohunterson.bandcamp.com
Dorian Finch, a rootless Bay Area transplant from California's Central Valley, writes angsty dream-pop ballads, twee punk crush-songs, and coming-of-age folk operas for more instruments than she knows how to play. Dorian and her Korg synthesizer are the only constants in a shifting band of friends and collaborators.
Dorian first started songwriting in 2010; a couple hundred songs and several sidewalk shows later, she finally began the arduous recording process for her first concept album,Young Ironsides. A lo-fi demo version of this album came out in May 2012, with the official release soon to come.
Based out of San Francisco, Mosaics formed in late 2012 from what originally began as a solo project recorded in a cramped bedroom. Playing breezy, summer-tinged indie rock that is best enjoyed with a cold beer, the group has begun performing at venues in and around the Bay Area in support of their upcoming EP set for release this summer.

Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) Wednesday announced Vermont law enforcement agencies and related justice programs received grants totaling more than $2.4 million from the U.S. Department of Justice. The grant awards were included in Fiscal Year 2014 spending and will support local and state efforts to reduce crime and tackle the state's substance abuse problems. Among the grant awards is funding provided through the Leahy-authored Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Program.
Leahy, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the senior most member of the Senate Appropriations Committee said, "As a former prosecutor, I know these grants will assist local law enforcement agencies across Vermont in making our communities safer. Supporting programs that confront opioid addiction, we can take a step toward ridding our state of this blight, and I am proud that the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Program is again providing local law enforcement agencies with the resources they need to keep our officers safe."
