US Bancorp Stock Offers Stability In The Banking Space
- US Bancorp second quarter earnings were impressive in my opinion. Net income may have been flat but this was achieved on lower margins even as the balance sheet grew.
- This bank doesn't have the same regulatory requirements as the big banks in the US. Essentially its a big regional bank and this gives it an advantage as to where to grow its business.
- Its efficiency ratio is one of the best in the sector which means more cash drops to the bottom line (for consistent share buybacks and dividend pay-outs). This is why it has a loyal shareholder base.
U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:USB) reached $46 a share in July but has since tumbled back down to around $41 a share. The majority of bank stocks were up in 2015 by mid year but Chinese volatility, European stagnation and also a 100+ point drop in US equity markets in August all prompted the Federal Reserve to maintain interest rates at zero for the foreseeable future.

US Bancorp's Q2 earnings were mixed with net interest margin dropping to 3.03% from 3.27% in the year ago quarter. Nevertheless, investors shouldn't overlook that this bank has the highest "NIM" metric among any of the major banks and this metric will only increase once interest rates start to finally rise in the US. This bank also has the highest loan to deposit ratio in this sector (89.5%). Loan growth is an imperative metric in the banking space which US Bancorp has achieved in the past few quarters. Furthermore, when you couple its loan growth with its excellent record in terms of charge-offs, this bank still looks very attractive at these levels. Let's discuss.
Firstly, the main reason why net income was basically flat ($1.48 billion) year on year in Q2 2015 was because as mentioned above its "NIM" metric fell to 3.03%. Its "NIM" was 3.27% in Q2 of 2014, but the bank still managed to keep income from this segment flat at $2.7 billion. Operating on lower margins, the bank was still able to grow its balance sheet over the past 12 months. Its cash balance grew over $5 billion to almost $18 billion and its deposits grew to almost $300 billion (8.9% YoY) with loans at $246 billion. What investors need to remember here is that although the bank is less profitable at the moment because of its huge deposit base, I see this situation being temporary. Deposit holders may show up as liabilities on the balance sheet at the moment but once interest rates rise, I'm betting majority of this money will get moved into different products within the bank. Analysts sometimes forget that the "cost of switching" banks is both time consuming and troublesome for customers which is why I believe US Bancorp will convert many existing deposit base customers to its more profitable products going forward. Therefore, when the next earnings are reported in October, expect net income levels and net interest margin levels to be again falling year on year . However, watch the balance sheet. With retail spending rising in the US, expect good loan and deposit growth, which over time will impact the share price favorably.
Secondly, this regional bank can't compete with the major banks in the US, like Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) and JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:JPM), but I see this as an advantage. Being a regional bank currently operating in 25 states, the bank can pick and choose where it wants to do business. Some areas in the US have not recovered as fast as others since the great recession (SouthEast) but other areas have recovered well (west) and that is where US Bancorp is prominent. Also this bank isn't subject to the strict regulations that the big banks are. This gives the bank more leeway with its customers which over time strengthens customer relationships. Furthermore, we can see this in action with its consistent declining charge-offs. Customer relationships are very important and even though smaller branches and online banking is the future, regional banks will still take their share of the market because many customers demand face to face banking.
In the banking space, one of the most important metrics that analysts go by is the effiency ratio which basically is the percent of net revenue consumed by operating expenses. Most banks have an effiency ratio of 60%, but US bancorp is closer to 50%. This means more revenue can drop to the bottom line which should be bullish for future earnings (see chart)
For income investors, it is very unlikely that a bank stock can consistently return increasing amounts of capital to shareholders, if the respective bank stock has an increasing efficiency ratio. US Bancorp doesn't have this problem with 76% of its net income currently being paid back to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks. The company's present dividend yield is 2.48% and although regulators in this space limit dividend payout to 30% of net income, I don't foresee the bank stalling the growth of its dividend.
Furthermore, the bank repurchased 14 million shares in the second quarter of this year which shows the bank's commitment to its shareholders. Share buybacks reduce the amount of outstanding shares over time which make existing shareholder's stakes more valuable by aiding earnings growth.
When a bank ups its capex spend substantially, which US Bancorp could do because of the cash-flow it generates, profits are always affected in the short term, which would definitely alienate some shareholders. This essentially is why this bank has turned out as it has. It concentrates on responsible risk management and in doing so, it does its business well by churning out profits every year.You will never see explosive growth with US Bancorp but as a dependable anchor in the banking space, there are few others who can match it. Therefore if you believe the US equity markets look a little top-heavy at the moment but still want some of your portfolio allocated to finance, then US Bancorp stock would be a good option.

Gifted Education - A Resource Guide for Teachers
Who Are Our Gifted Students?
Perceptions of giftedness vary even among gifted education specialists. At one time "gifted" was the term used to describe those students who learned quickly and obtained high scores on IQ tests. While these abilities still contribute to our understanding of giftedness, the findings of many researchers have given us a deeper understanding of intelligence.
Today "giftedness" is generally accepted to include a wide range of attributes, from the traditional intellectual measures to interpersonal abilities.
Howard Gardner and Joe Renzulli are among the researchers who have had considerable impact in recent years on our understanding of giftedness. Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and Renzulli's three-ring conception of giftedness are useful starting places for classroom teachers attempting to identify gifted behaviour among their students.
The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (Gardner, 1983)
Gardner's model of intelligence describes capabilities in seven areas. The following summary of these capabilities is drawn from Thomas Armstrong (1994):
- Linguistic: The ability to use words effectively both orally and in writing (e.g., writer, orator).
- Logical-Mathematical: The ability to use numbers effectively and to see logical relationships and patterns (e.g., mathematician, scientist, computer programmer).
- Spatial: The ability to visualize and to orient oneself in the world (e.g., guide, hunter, architect, artist).
- Bodily, Kinesthetic: The ability to use one's body to express ideas; to make things with hands; and to develop physical skills (e.g., actor, craftsperson, athlete).
- Musical: The capacity to perceive, discriminate, transform and express musical forms (e.g., composer, musician).
- Interpersonal Intelligence: The ability to perceive and make distinctions in the moods, intentions, motivations and feelings of other people (e.g., counsellor, political leader).
- Intrapersonal Intelligence: Self-knowledge and the ability to act adaptively on the basis of that knowledge (e.g., psychotherapist, religious leader).
Historically, gifted students have been identified by excellence in linguistic or logical-mathematical realms. Students with outstanding abilities in other areas may not have been identified for gifted programming. A broader search for giftedness and a commitment to its development includes all of the intelligences.
According to Gardner, performance within each of the intelligences is developmental. Development may or may not occur at the same rate for all of the intelligences. Gifted students will show patterns of development that exceed their peers in one or several of the intelligences.
The Three-Ring Conception of Giftedness (Renzulli, 1986)
After an extensive analysis of research studies of gifted individuals, Renzulli concluded that giftedness involves the interaction of three sets of characteristics: above average intellectual ability, creativity and task commitment. This interaction may result in giftedness in general performance areas such as mathematics, philosophy, religion or visual arts, or in the performance areas as specific as cartooning, map-making, play-writing, advertising or agricultural research.
Treffinger (1986, p.40) defined the characteristics as follows:
Above Average Intelligence
- Advanced vocabulary
- Good memory
- Learns very quickly and easily
- Large fund of information
- Generalizes skilfully
- Comprehends new ideas easily
- Makes abstractions easily
- Perceives similarities, differences, relationships
- Makes judgments and decisions
- Questioning; very curious about many topics
- Has many ideas (fluent)
- Sees things in varied ways (flexible)
- Offers unique or unusual ideas (original)
- Adds details; makes ideas more interesting (elaborates)
- Transforms or combines ideas
- Sees implications or consequences easily
- Risk-taker; speculates
- Feels free to disagree
- Finds subtle humour, paradox or discrepancies
Task Commitment
- Sets own goals, standards
- Intense involvement in preferred problems and tasks
- Enthusiastic about interests and activities
- Needs little external motivation when pursuing tasks
- Prefers to concentrate on own interest and projects
- High level of energy
- Perseveres; does not give up easily when working
- Completes, shares products
- Eager for new projects and challenges
- Assumes responsibility
Renzulli's three-ring concept of giftedness has helped educators to look for more than intellectual ability in identifying students with potential. We now recognize the importance of creativity. When these two factors are combined with task commitment, there is potential for giftedness.
Task commitment refers to the passion and the perseverance that follows when students are involved in problems, topics and projects of their own interest or choosing, in our outside of the classroom. Gifted students are typically committed to task that are personally meaningful. A lack of commitment to a task assigned by someone else does not necessarily mean the student lacks task commitment. For example, failing to complete classroom assignments is not an appropriate reason to exclude a student form gifted programming. Therefore, educators using task commitment as an indicator of giftedness should do so carefully.
Renzulli (1986), Treffinger (1986) and Feldhusen (1992) suggest that one goal of education is to identify the exceptional strengths, talents and interest of students and to develop programming to help them optimize their potentials. The intent is to develop programming which reflects a student's uniqueness. Areas within school programs that provide opportunities for talent identification and development are shown in the Feldhusen graphic (1992, p14) on page 10.
Gardner's and Renzulli's work illuminates the need to identify student potential in a variety of ways and to develop multiple programming options to meet each student's unique needs.

text: * Nikkei has fallen 0.2 percent for the week * China PMI may determine Nikkei's direction later in the day - traders * Shin-Etsu Chemical soars on strong results, dividend hike By Ayai Tomisawa TOKYO, July 24 (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei share average fell on Friday morning after dismal corporate earnings on Wall Street, while some investors hugged the sidelines ahead of key Chinese economic data due out later in the day. The Nikkei share average rose 0.4 percent to 20,609.62 in midmorning trade. For the week, the index has shed 0.2 percent so far. U.S. shares fell after the likes of 3M, American Express and Caterpillar disappointed the market with weaker-than-expected earnings. Sentiment in the Japanese market should depend on the Markit Flash China Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), which will provide the latest clue to the health of the world's second-largest economy, analysts said. The data is due out 0145 GMT. The Chinese stock market rout that wiped out as much as $4 trillion in share values at one point has rattled investor confidence. Some investors are concerned the market meltdown could hurt the economy, analysts said. "Although the result may have little impact to the whole Japanese market, companies which have big exposure to China such as Fanuc Corp may be hit if the data is worse than expected," said Takuya Takahashi, a strategist at Daiwa Securities. "The market's mood will likely depend on the data today." On Friday, construction equipment makers underperformed due to Caterpillar's sales declines in key markets. Komatsu fell 1.6 percent and Hitachi Construction Machinery shed 1.4 percent. Bucking the trend, Shin-Etsu Chemical jumped 4.1 percent after reporting strong April-to-June results and raising dividend forecasts to 110 yen per share from the previous year's 100 yen per share for the year ending March 2016. Major exporters were mixed, with Toyota Motor Corp flat, Nissan Motor Co gaining 0.4 percent and Panasonic Corp dropping 0.2 percent. The broader Topix fell 0.3 percent to 1,660.58 and the JPX-Nikkei Index 400 declined 0.3 percent to 14,973.34. (Editing by Ryan Woo)

It occurred to me last week that my iPhone, iPad, iPhone, Nexus and Mac beep a lot and disturb me all the time. Being so connected can be really annoying, not to mention the amount of battery drain push notifications and email use.
I made some changes and the result is an iPhone that stays charged 50% longer and a fraciton of the notifications.
1. iPhone/iPad email fetch
Blackberry introduced the world to push email, and Apple continued the tradition. There are very few circumstances I need an email the second it arrives, so I switched it off. To do this go to Settings > Mail > Fetch. Switch off push and have the phone check for new emails hourly. This saves a yersslot huge amount of battery and annoying vibrations.
2. Reduce email volume
My morning ritual is to delete junk mail sent overnight. This takes at least a minute to do every day (around 6 hours a year). Unsubscribe to everything, most businesses should be communicating with you through a social network or an App. Most spammy emails will have an unsubscribe link that you can click and confirm at the bottom of their emails. Once you have done this, go to your inbox, select a spammy email, sort the list by name and delete all historical ones. This alone recovered 6GB of storage on my Gmail and iMac.
3. Local notifications
Most apps will try and get your permission to accept notifications. Its their only way to remind you to open their App! Some apps abuse this privelage and sent far too many notificaitons – Zynga are a great example. So if you love Words with friends but dont want to delete it to stop spammy notifications, follow these steps:
- Settings
- Notifications
- Find the spammy app
- Switch off all options (see pictured)

I have attached an example of this message:
When opening Outlook 2010, the screen is hung on "loading profile". This started happening on multiple win7 pc's here, whether pointed to the old 2007 Exchange server, or the new 2010 Exchange server. Cannot figure out why. The only thing that changed recently was that we replaced the primary and backup 2003 domain controllers with 2008R2. The forest and domain were prepped prior to promoting and demoting. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Jun 29, 2012 at 10:30 UTC
I figured this out. The problem was Symantec Antivirus was running on the Exchange server. Once I turned it off, I was able to connect via Outllook 2010.

Can you run outlook with the /rpcdiag flag and see which server it's trying to connect to? Is that server still online and accepting connections?
Jun 14, 2012 at 2:24 UTC
I would try an OST rebuild on the problematic machines, or better yet, new mail profiles altogether.
Jun 14, 2012 at 2:31 UTC
Shot in the dark, but I had this issue with my Windows XP PCs here....
Reboot in safe mode, go into services, and disable
Microsoft .NET Framework NGEN v4.0.xxxxxxxx
Jun 14, 2012 at 2:32 UTC
Yes, both the original 2007 Exchange server is still online and functioning with most of the email accounts, some working some not. The 2010 Exchange server was implemented today and I moved my mailbox to it without any errors, but now profile hung on loading when opening Outlook.
Jun 14, 2012 at 2:49 UTC
Are you running any kind of VoiP software on the PC that integrates into Outlook?
I'll add on to it now... had to run away a minute ago.
So we have Shoretel as our VoiP phone system. The call manager integrates into Outlook which spawns a helper process called Agent.exe - This process is what controls the background addins that work inside Outlook for Shoretel. So to fix this issue what my users do is:
Open task manager.
Sort by name.
Kill all processes named Agent.exe
Restart Outlook or if it was trying to start, it will autostart correctly now.
Let me know if this works for you.
Jun 14, 2012 at 3:26 UTC
Close outlook, go to ctrl panel and then mail. click profiles, click add, create a new one. on the bottom check the box to allow you to choose every time outlook is opened.
open outlook, choose the new profile. set the user account back up. If it loads then we know it's a corrupt profile. (either OST or something else)
I've seen this happen with outlook 2010 on a exchange 2010 and exchange 2007 compatibility environment quite a bit. (we are migrating to 2010 but are not finished yet)
this always solves it for us.
Jun 14, 2012 at 3:28 UTC
As an edit, your not nuking or changing the old one so you can always re-try the old configuration.
Jun 14, 2012 at 3:39 UTC
Press WinKey+R. In the Open field, type outlook.exe /resetnavpane
Press WinKey+R. In the Open field, type regedit and hit Enter

try running

this will show what servers outlook is going to, it may be trying the old server for a referral first
If so after it timeout it should be ok

Magic drain 15 3s in rout of 76ersFeb 16, 2012 - 5:19 AM Orlando, FL (Sports Network) - If the Orlando Magic live and die by the three- pointer, they not only lived on Wednesday night, they thrived.
Ryan Anderson scored 27 points on 7-of-10 shooting from beyond the arc and Orlando drained 15 treys overall in a 103-87 rout of the Philadelphia 76ers at Amway Center.
Jameer Nelson tied a career-best with 14 assists and added 12 points, while Dwight Howard also had a double-double with 17 points and 14 rebounds for the Magic, who have won three straight and seven of nine.
"We're playing with a lot more energy," Nelson said. "It was a great team effort."
Lou Williams had 21 points and seven assists off the bench to pace the Sixers, who lost the finale of a three-game road trip after winning the first two in Cleveland and Charlotte.
Anderson lit up the scoreboard for Orlando in the first quarter. The Cal product hit 4-of-5 from beyond the arc for 12 of his 14 first-quarter points as he paced the Magic to 71.4 percent three-point shooting and a 29-16 lead after one.
"They just got out to a good start," Williams said. "It was just one of those nights."
Bolstered by the shooting of their bench, the Sixers clawed their way back into the game in the second quarter, only to watch Orlando's lead balloon again. Philadelphia's reserves drained eight of their 14 attempts from the floor for 16 points in the quarter, and an 8-2 run put the Sixers down six with just under two minutes to play. The Magic responded in force, however, scoring 10 unanswered points to end the half up 55-39.
Philadelphia continued to come up just short in the third quarter, staying within striking distance with a single-digit deficit in the final eight minutes of the frame, but never mustering enough to overcome Orlando's onslaught from three-point range. The Magic led 79-70 after the third.
Orlando held Philadelphia to just 23.8 percent field goal shooting in the fourth to prevent a final Sixers run.
Game Notes
Sixers guard Jodie Meeks made a three-pointer for the 25th consecutive game, tying the third-longest streak in franchise history...Orlando led by as many as 17. Philadelphia never led...The Sixers are 0-6 this season when giving up 100 or more points...Orlando recorded its 115th consecutive regular season sellout.

JotForm Blank Page When Creating a New Form in Google DriveAsked by Montrey Jackson on March 24, 2015 at 04:04 PM
When creating a new JotForm in Google Drive, the page is blank with the following URL:
I've tested our google drive integration and was unable to reproduce the error when I created it and also on a test submission.
Can you please try to clear your browser's cache to see if it helps?
Also, please share the URL of your form so we can inspect it further.
I tried clearing my browser and using a different browser and Google account. It still gives me a blank page when I click New and select JotForm to create a new form.
JotForm Support
Please make sure you are logged in to your jotform account https://www.jotform.com/login
and then do the integration process within the Form Builder.
Try following the steps as described on the user guide:
-How-to-Integrate-a-Form-with-Google-Drive1. First, open your form on the Form Builder and click on Integrations button on the toolbar.2. Select Google Drive on the list of integrations.
I am not sure why you have such URL... but during the integration process in the Form Builder it was not like that on my end.
Please retry as suggested. Inform us if issue still persist even after doing this already.
Tried this and I am still getting the blank screen when I try to create a new form in Google Drive. I added JotForm as a Connected App in Google Drive and when I click New and select JotForm in Google Drive, I get this long URL. http://www.jotform.com/google/drive/form/new.php?state=%7B%22folderId%22:%22JotForm%22,%22action%22:%22create%22,%22userId%22:%22113265015516559772939%22%7D
So will creating forms no longer work in Google Drive?
JotForm Support
Hi Montrey,
I was able to reproduce the problem when creating a form using the Google Drive app. I have now raised this to our developers for further investigation.
Here's my test: https://shots.jotform.com/elton/Screencast_17-47_25-03-2015.mp4
We'll inform you here once this is resolved.
Thank you!

A social media tool makes patients more liable to participate
Punit Dhillon, right, co-founded a company to develop cancer treatments two years ago in San Diego. The reason he chose the U.S. instead of Canada for his firm, OncoSec Medical Inc., is that it's easier to recruit patients for clinical trials south of the border. But now he has partnered with Smart Patients, an online community that creates a dialogue between doctors and patients and makes it easier for OncoSec to find patients interested in participating in trials. With him is Roni Zeiger, a co-founder of Smart Patients.
(Kim White For The Globe and Mail)
Mr. Dhillon, centre, is optimistic that his partnership with Smart Patients will lead to more efficient clinical trials and help expand OncoSec's next phase of research to Canada. With him is Roni Zeiger of Smart Patients, left, and Kevin Lawrence, also of Smart Patients, in Mountain View, Calif.
(Kim White For The Globe and Mail)
Kevin Lawrence works at the Smart Patients headquarters in California. Through Smart Patients, more practical aspects of clinical trials can be addressed, such as how far patients may be willing to travel, the number of treatments and how they are administered. This makes patients more apt to become comfortable with participating in a trial.
(Kim White For The Globe and Mail)
An employee at OncoSec handles a syringe used for cancerous tumours. Oncology clinical trials take an average of 50 per cent longer to conduct than those for other diseases, and the bottleneck is patient recruiting, which takes 75 per cent longer than with other diseases.
(OncoSec Medical Inc.)
A technician works in an OncoSec lab in California. "It costs millions of dollars for development of a new therapy. If we can economize on any aspect and get better understandings based on collaborations between doctors and patients, it becomes more efficient," Mr. Dhillon says.
(OncoSec Medical Inc.)

Great story! I hope someone buys it from him and parks it - one less stang I have to pass in my Corvette because the Stang can't even get out of its own way. (I know, here goes WW3)
I'll admit this, even though it's a Ford, I would have bought the car on sight if I had seen that number!

What what are you talking about. The Boss 302 will kick your vette's ass.

Hey well both the Vette and the stang wont get out of the way of my blackbird! you both hold me back!
Apr 20, 2011 at 10:11 UTC
What what are you talking about. The Boss 302 will kick your vette's ass.
True... but my car is 11 years and and would probably keep up with it, but wouldn't beat it in a drag race. I think I'll trade it in for a Blackbird!
Apr 20, 2011 at 2:16 UTC
That's awesome, what a find.
Always been a Ford fan and my first car had a 302 (not a Mustang, not even close) so I was psyched to see them bring back the 5.0. Too bad I can't afford one.

BUFFALO (AP) In the final minute of a big win for the Buffalo Sabres, Ryan Miller (FSY) heard his hometown crowd chant: "USA! USA!"
At that point, Miller knew it was time to focus on the Olympics.
The star goalie made 27 saves in his final tuneup to help the Sabres beat the San Jose Sharks 3-1 on Saturday night.
GAME REPORT: Sabres 3, Sharks 1
"I'm glad the puck stayed out," Miller quipped. "I appreciate that they're behind me."
"It was great for him," added Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff, who will be an assistant coach for the Canadian team. "That pushes him off in a real good mood and on the right track. He really wanted to get that win before the break, especially in our own building."
Paul Gaustad (FSY), Thomas Vanek and Jason Pominville (FSY) scored in the second period to help Buffalo snap a six-game losing streak.
San Jose goalie Evgeni Nabokov (FSY), also in his last game before joining the Russian Olympic squad, made 25 stops for the Sharks and had his NHL-record 11-game road winning streak snapped. Kent Huskins (FSY) scored for San Jose.
"I don't know what happened," Nabokov said. "We gave up a few odd-man rushes and they took advantage."
The Sharks had the better chances early in the second period, but Buffalo broke a scoreless deadlock 5½ minutes in when Gaustad charged the net and tucked in a pass from the left corner by Henrik Tallinder (FSY).
Buffalo then incurred consecutive penalties but held the Sharks off the board, and then Vanek made it 2-0 with 7½ minutes left. He took a lead pass in the slot, faked to his forehand to get Nabokov out of position, then went to his backhand to flip the puck in.
"That's the difference in the game," Sharks coach Todd McLellan said. "If you put one of (the power-play opportunities) in, you're in good shape. You build it in the game that they're going to score in the game, but to do that two times in a row really took a lot of life out of us."
With 2½ minutes remaining, Pominville jammed at a puck along the right post and it deflected off defenseman Niclas Wallin (FSY) and trickled in.
Nabokov last gave up three goals in a period of a road game on Nov. 27 in Edmonton, but the Sharks won that game in a shootout.
"We had a tough couple of weeks," said Buffalo F Jochen Hecht (FSY), who will represent Germany in the Olympics. "Against one of the best teams in the league, we played in their end a lot. It shows how good a team we have if we're on our game."
Huskins ended Miller's shutout bid 5½ minutes into the final period, recovering an errant puck just outside his own blue line and wristing a shot from the left circle.
The game marked just the fourth time since Jan. 1 that San Jose did not get a goal from any of its top three point producers —Joe Thornton, Dany Heatley (FSY), and Patrick Marleau (FSY).
In recent weeks, Miller tried to deflect questions about the Olympics, especially before games when he was facing a fellow Vancouver-bound goaltender, which happened five times in a six-game stretch between Jan. 21 and Feb. 1. After this win, it was time for Miller to finally let his guard down.
"I'm looking forward to the tournament and (will) try to have as much fun as possible," Miller said. "It's going to be a great experience."
Miller also felt good about finding the win column again.
"For a while, it didn't seem like a lot was going quite my way after pretty much nothing went wrong in the first 40 games," Miller said. "The teams I've been with that have performed at the highest levels have always had something to overcome. I'd rather have it now than later."
NOTES: Buffalo is 13-1 against San Jose at home. ... Gaustad snapped a 20-game stretch without a goal. ... Nabokov's last road loss was Nov. 15 at Chicago. ... Seven of San Jose's 13 regulation losses have been by at least three goals. ... The Sharks ended their six-game road trip with a 4-2 record. They also went 4-2 during their other six-gamer in October.

Excellent family driven country side hotel. Very friendly staff and a great restaurant with excellent German food. Good value for the money. Nothing to complain about.
The decor was lovely, the staff very helpfull and friendly, and the food was wonderful.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The room was incredibly clean, and I felt right at home. It was nice to have a restaurant just downstairs. The food is quite good. I had some forelle and my first piece of Schwarzwaelderkirschtorte, which were both excellent. I unfortunately missed the breakfast because I had to begin hiking by 7:30 to make it to the next town. It doesn't start until 8am. All in all, a really great place that I would recommend to anyone.
Beautiful construction with typical German Black Forest decoration that includes several paintings by local painter Hans Thoma. Friendliness from everyone; from the owner at the reception desk to the waiters at the restaurant, to the personnel cleaning the bedrroms. Excellent food and wine (Antonio can make really good recommendations regarding wine and liquors). The place is cosy and "gemütlich!" Nothing to complain about!
This is an excellent Black Forest hotel, with friendly, efficient staff, spacious rooms ( we had a balcony with a lovely view )and very good meals. It is a good centre for touring the southern Black Forest and for walking. It was excellent value for money. Our experience was very good - I think it would be difficult to reach without a car, but we did not try local transport.
The hotel is in a beautiful and quite place, with wonderful sigths to the Feldberg summit and the Titisee. Its situation is perfect: close to Freirburg, Belchen, Feldberg mountain, Triberg and Todtnau waterfalls, etc.
Extremely clean and nice! Great staff and great food! Fantastic dinner!
Please write at least 15 words
The pool is nice. The staff are nice. There is nothing to do after 8pm. No bar. You need to walk to a nearby pizzeria on a busy crossroads. Pricey for what it offers
Room and bathroom were big enough and clean, nice swimming pool, good breakfast. The prices are too high for the quality of the hotel.
The hotel was very close to the Ski lifts. The dinner was superb. Also, the hotel staff was very respectful towards being allowed for travellers to have pets with them.
The Hotel DIANA is very quiet and you can repose. The swimming pool and the sauna are very pleasant. It is near a Lidl. They did not change the "draps de lits" for 5 nights! The hotel is expensive for a 3 "étoiles".
Very friendly and helpfull staff. Eye for detail in every sense and personal attention by owners to guests selection of sauna facilities could be slightly extended for a hotel under Wellness logo
Only one word necessary to describe this hotel: wonderful! We stayed here for a short break. They have a large wellness offer (beautytreatments, massages etc.) which we enjoyed very much. Beautiful swimmingpool and sauna. Quiet hotel, fantastic wellness food, good service. We will come back! No remarks!
The Hotel is nice and has a good view on the village The weelness area is very short. The damfpad is old. Few places to rest near the swimmingpool and no place avalaible during the week-end. The dinner costs 29,5 Euros. Price per night too expensive
The people were great and the food was fantastic. The bed was too small.
Good location, local activities and reasonable facilities in the hotel. Very good food and service and friendly staff. 4 Stars have been given due to the presence of spa type facilities but these, while clean and in good order, were minimal. Pool was very cold and sauna's very small. Rooms were clean and tidy but also small and barely comfortable. This is a 3 star hotel at best. Hotel was difficult to find. Despite fairly good local knowledge we resorted to two phone calls to the hotel. Notscherei does not appear on road maps and is not recognised on Sat Nav. When booking on the web site there was no option to request a third bed for our son. On arrival they were surprised to see a fifth guest, despite out telephone request to hotelroom.com, this could have been averted if the hotel phone no. Or e-mail address had been included in the listing.
i liked the pool and restuarant no
great location. Easy access to winter sports and walking. good swimming pool
Very nice location, friendly staff Swimmingpool not supervised, noisy, choice of fodd restricted
Breakfast. spacious room. It was difficult to find the restaurant for dinner.
The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very nice and the hours for serving breakfast were perfect (available until 10 am). The hotel was convienent to the village. No soap or washclothes provided, but this is typical of european hotels.
Quiet place, in the country, very nice. Breakfast good. Missing soap in the room.
It's an excelent central point for starting excursions around: walking in the Black Forest or in the lakes around, Rhin falls, Friburg, Basel, etc. The personal in the hotel is very kind and gave us useful guidance about the best use of our time and the facilities, like free public transportation in the region.
This hotel was very over priced .The room was very small and dark and we had stayed in other hotels at this price and this hotel was not comparable. It was also very remote with nothing much around .
Staff was helpful. Provided information freely.
The pool, Sauna etc were nice.
we enjoyed our stay, breakfast was good,the pool and the sauna were excellent/ Cooler or Ice were missing
Good food, great location, excellent pool and leisure centre. Good walking nearby.
The staff was very helpful with directions and tried their best to answerall our questions in English.
Location. The view in room 218, with the little balcony. The rooms facing the hotel next to it might get the horrible noise they play all day long and they would have no view.
We had a room with a balcony facing the mountains, parking is easy and the hotel is easy to find. It is located in a small town and everything is within walking distance. The hotel is a little dated but our room was a good size.
Good service, clean, functional. Excellent food Small room, and very average breakfast
Very nice country side hotel. Very good service. We also enjoyed the restautrant which had very good German food. Not much to complain about.
German "Gastfreundlichkeit" must have its origins in this hotel. The friendly owners really did their best to make us feel at home. The dinner was a real treat too. Highly advisable to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in the Black Forest. Lovely hotel off the beaten track. Will stay there again.
It is a modest hotel with very nice and helpful staff. The decoration is authentique and beautiful. Restaurant(s) have very good quality/price ratio. Good choice for those who do not expect a lot.
Extremely friendly staff and very good catering As we arrived by car it was a small problem finding the place.
reception approach. room arrangement. foods.
we liked the room much it was big and confortable fpr 2 adults and 2 kids. There was family felling in the hotel.
The room, facilities were excellent as was the restaurant (even though we only got to use it for breakfast as they do not open it for Mondays) The shower drain was blocked and meant you had to have really short showers.
Friendly [family run?] hotel with English-speaking staff. Comfortable decent-sized room with balcony. Restaurant in hotel though we didn't eat there. Excellent breakfast. The bathroom though clean and in good working condition, looks very old and had a weird smell when we arrived. But no big deal, easily rid of by opening the windows.
Half board was very good.
very good stuff , nice room and good location. in room good mattress , but small pillows
Friendly employees, tasty breakfast with homemade products. Neighbourhood boring in April
The sevice and food were excellent. It was excellent value for money and I would return in the future.
Nice views, great room layout, clean, bright the room was large. It took us over an hour to find it!
The personal was very friendly, the room very beautiful, and the service very well. To recommend much!
staff is very freindly - speeking english , graet location .
Good position, helpful staff, very nice dining room and good food.Situated in a very attractive village.
Very calm and beautiful place in the middle of the black forest, close to the Titisee lake (10 min by train) and Freiburg (50 min by train). The staff was really kind and the restaurant very good, with German typical dishes. If you depend on the train to travel around please note there is one train per hour. Anyway you can buy a ticket for the whole day and the train station is a five minutes walk from the hotel.
We especially appreciated the service of the owners who where extremely helpful and nice. The family room was well equipped with living room, 2 separate bedrooms and a spacious bathroom . The hotel is definitely recommendable.
We had a huge family room, which was like an apartment. The breakfast was very good, and the area was beautiful. Our children loved the place. We loved all the little details around the room and the hotel. They spoke English. We were very pleasantly surprised with our experience there. We would definitely stay there again. They didn't get our notice that we needed an extra bed, which wasn't too much of a problem, as they had a long couch and brought up an extra comforter & pillow upon our arrival. Also, there was no soap in the room.
What a great hotel! My family and I, including two young children, recently stayed at the Landhotel Sonneck and loved it! Everyone on the hotel staff was helpful, friendly and took a personal interest in making our stay an enjoyable one. Excellent restaurant (the staff even printed an English menu for us). Highly recommended!
Very friendly staff, laidback, good food, great place
extreme clean rooms and excellent food
The high rating of this hotel is really deserved. Staff was like family, relax, very friendly and helpful. I really adored the place and for a relaxed weekend I certainly return to this hotel
Wonderful friendly welcome & advice re available activities.
Friendly staff, tolerance towards pets and clean an comfortable rooms. Price/quality was excellent! Nice breakfast and good food too!
Excellent service, very pleasant surroundings, superb breakfast..
We had made a reservation for 2 rooms online. Upon arrival, there is only 1 room available. Luckily, the owner helped to look for a pension house nearby to put us up.
Friendly family atmosphere. Cosy rustic ambiance. Food simple but good. Excellent value for money. Ideal for bikers.

Ok, it's one of those things which have left most of us in awe whenever we've witnessed it - self - sucking. Yes indeed, Solo Suck is a site dedicated strictly about men who can actually give themselves head. Most of the picture galleries are taken from videos of our webmaster - Al Eingang. Apparently he's been at this for a while now and is quite good at it. Although his and other self-suckers' video are for sale, the pics are free. Watching this stuff, I get a mixture of many different reactions. First of all, I wish I could do it, so there's some envy for sure. LOL. Secondly, the athleticism of the these blokes is quite outstanding of course. And lastly, pure lust as I get to see some very large and gorgeous cocks. Site navigation is a bit confusing as the site is created in an old school format. However, after following the main menu to the left, I was able to get around most of the site. The links at the top of the pages are mostly for purchase and information in case you're interested in any of that. You can find some how-to's in the event you'd like to try this yourself. Who knows? Maybe you can learn to suck your own cock! Cool site.

How to Optimize and Analyze a MySQL Database Tables using phpMyAdmin in Godaddy
If you have deleted a large amount of data from a table or if you have made so many changes to a table with variable length rows such as TEXT, VARCHAR, BLOB or VARBINARY columns.
When you delete the rows then they are maintained in the linked list and further insert operations reuse the old row positions of the table. You can use "Optimize Table" option to reclaim un-used space and de-fragment the data file for optimal performance of your database.
If a lot of changes have been made to a table then optimizing the table can sometimes significantly improve dramatic performance of the database.
Just follow the process to optimize and analyze a MySql database tables.
Step-1: First log-in into your Godaddy account.
Step-2: Click on Launch button of web hosting.
Step-3: Now click on MySQL under Databases drop down section.
Step-4: Login into your phpMyAdmin account.
Step-5: Now select the database which you want to optimize from the list in the left column of phpMyAdmin.
Step-6: Select the tables which you want to optimize by checking the check box in front of each one or just clicking on Select All if you want to optimize all the tables.
Step-7: In the drop down box you will get "with selected:", here you have to select "Optimize Table".
Step-8 :If you want to analyze the database then just select "Analyze table" instead of "Optimize Table".
By this option you can optimize and analyze a mysql database.

Well, we wondered who would be the first public figure to call Barack Obama "the worst president in history" -- an appellation applied to most White House occupants at one time or another.
We just didn't think it would be Dan Quayle's son.
Ben Quayle, 33, who is seeking the Republican nomination for a U.S. House seat in Arizona, has cut a commercial denouncing Obama, as well as "drug cartels in Mexico" and "tax cartels in D.C."
For good measure, the former vice president's son ends his stark ad by proclaiming: "I love Arizona. I was raised right. Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place."
Note that Quayle, a lawyer and managing director of a Scottsdale, Ariz., investment firm, has also been criticized for alleged links to a racy website, claims his campaign has denounced as a smear.

Purple Piecing Plus wearable art jacket by Lila Hendricks
(Image by Meryl Ann Butler) Permission Details DMCA
The Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival held Feb. 25 28 in Hampton, VA, drew over 10,000 people.
The 2006 Quilting in America Survey reports that there are more than 27 million quilters in the U.S., and that 17 percent of all American households say they have at least one family member who participates in quilting.
Big Blue by Peggy Jebavy
With over 100,000 square feet of exhibit space, and more than 150 vendors, Festival attendees had plenty to do in addition to viewing the 22 special exhibits filled with over 500 quilts, textile art, and wearable art. Over $24,000 in prizes were awarded at the show.
Paisley Peacock by Pat Holly won 1st Place in Innovative Quilts.
Many Americans have fond memories of special quilts made by favorite aunts or loving grandmothers, and quilts have always been associated with the adventures of early American pioneers. However, our association with fibers goes back many thousands of years further than that.
According to the Sept. 11, 2009, edition of Science Daily, "A team of archaeologists and paleo-biologists has discovered flax fibers that are more than 34,000 years old, making them the oldest fibers known to have been used by humans. The fibers (were) discovered during systematic excavations in a cave in the Republic of Georgia. "
Really Wild Flowers by Sharon Schlotzhauer won a 3rd place ribbon.
But quilting has come a long, way, baby, from the calico squares of yesteryear. Contemporary quilts are breaking through the limits of textile art and dancing across the boundaries of mixed media art forms.
Circles of Life by Linda French won Best of Show.

The Well by instructor Esterita Austin.
Carol Britt, owner of Batiks Etc. & Sew What Fabrics, has been quilting since 1972 and in business since 1982. Carol says, "Quilting is such an innately positive activity! We take raw materials of relatively little value and create something of great worth on artistic, healing, and monetary levels. So much of what women do is temporary: a meal is eaten, dishes always need to be washed, and clothes get dirty so it's a special joy to design and make something of lasting value."
Carol Britt of Batiks Etc. & Sew What Fabrics
Free demonstrations were offered by local needle-art guilds as well as in many of the vendor booths, and attendees had opportunities to win raffle quilts.

Commercial Crash Maybe Not So Bad
Experts say the commercial crash will be a drag on the economy for years to come, but shouldn't cause the upheaval we've seen.
"The problems in both the residential and commercial real estate sectors combined will, essentially, be a drag on the broader economy, said Matt Anderson, a partner with Foresight Analytics, a real estate consulting firm in California. "The good news for economic growth is that it's not nearly as reliant now on real estate, both residential and commercial, as it had been going into the downturn.""

the youngest female who was accused of witchcraft had only been 5 years old.
over a period of 10 months, 165 people were accused and killed for witchcraft in Salem.
one person was pressed to death in result to not admitting to being a witch. He had rocks piled on his chest until he confessed, and in the end, he ended up dying from weight of rocks.
witch trials were common in central Europe; Germany, France, Switzerland, and Belgium.
In the 1600's, multiple cultures believed that those who were witches contained the power to:
help cropping
make humans or animals fertile
and beheld magic to cure the sick
Matthew Hopkins
John Steame
Witches were most commonly woman, very few men. Reasons as to why people were convicted of witchcraft:
they were wealthy
conversed with themselves
did not go to church
did not have a male living in the house
burned at stake
suspects deprived of food, water and sleep
hung to death
Salem Witch Trials of 1692
occurred in Massachusetts, from 1692-1693
hearings for the people accused of witchcraft
death of over 200 unjustified individuals
a small group of girls made up a story that 3 women in town were witches
they women later on were executed
Tests and Trials:
attached a rock too your leg and threw you into a river
poked with a needle, 'Pricking'
put on a scale and weighed against two bibles
stripped and searched for the devils mark
