Larson, Male Chorus Climax Missions Week
After Decision--What Then?
"After decision — what then?" will be the subject of Dana M. Lar-son's
address in the All-Student Rally tonight at 7 p.m. in the college
In this last service of Missions Emphasis Week, the Rev. Mr. Lar-son,
missionary to Assam, India, will endeavor to tell what preparations
to make between the time a student decides to go to the foreign field
and the time he is actually sent out. He will also stress the obligation
that each one has to be "alive" spritually here at home in order to be
an effective missionary.
The male chorus will provide
special music for tonight's service.
They will sing, "I Am With You"
b y Harkness, "Fight the Good
Fight" by Boyd and "Perfect
Peace" by Caldbeck.
In this morning's chapel service,
Herman G. Tegenfeldt, missionary
to Burma, spoke on 'God's Plan
for Me," in which he emphasized
t h e importance of seeking a n d
obeying God's will.
During the week, Home and For-eign
Missions have been presented
by Garnet Jenkins from Canada,
Walfred Danielson, former General
Conference Missions Secretary
Robert Klingberg, Associate Home
Missions Secretary, and the Rev.
Mr. Larson and the Rev. Mr. Tegen-feldt.

Christian Service
Activities Increase
According t o a recent report
given by Robert Featherstone, di-rector
of Christian service activi
ties, gospel team work as well as
other Christian service activities
increased last quarter o v e r the
same period in 1952.
Covering the period from Sep-tember
30 through December 19,
there were 160 assignments made
in 1953 compared to 90 in 1952,
and 155 different students partici-pated
last quarter over 98 in 1952.
Of the 160 assignments, 104 were
in the Twin Cities, and 56 were
outside of the Cities.
In this report, it was indicated
that there was a 77% increase in
assignments and a 58% increase in
the number of students used. A
marked increase was also noted in
the calls for gospel teams from
the Twin City Conference churches
and from the non - Conference
churches outside the Cities.

Dr. Lorenz Eitner, professor of
art at the University of Minnesota,
will lecture next Wednesday, Jan-uary
20 in the Student Center
Lounge at 8 p.m.
"What makes a work of art
great" is the topic on which Dr.
Eitner will speak, and along with
the lecture, he will project slides
illustrating both good and bad
works of art. In presenting his
subject, Dr. Eitner will discuss
many of the great paintings both
old and new—their quality, con-tent
and form.
Dr. Eitner, who was born in
Australia, came to the United
States in 1935, did most of his
graduate work at Princeton Uni-versity,
receiving his Ph. D. there
in History of Art, and began
teaching at the University of Min-nesota
in 1949. The courses which
he teaches at the university in-clude
Survey of Ancient and Me-dieval
Art, Modern Painting, and
introductory art courses.
Next Wednesday's program is
sponsored by the Cultural Council.
Bill Slivka, chairman of the coun-cil,
urges all students to attend
this lecture.
Dr. Elving Anderson
Students Urged
To Buy Books
Mrs. Walfred Peterson, manag-er
of the bookstore, has requested
that students who haven't as yet
purchased their textbooks do so
immediately. Many students will
have to buy new books for the
last part of the quarter, but they
should be purchased now, as all
unused books will be returned to
the publishers the end of this
Once these books are returned
to the publisher, it takes at least
two weeks to reorder them. There-fore,
students are urged to check
the book lists available in the
bookstore for all bookstore for
all books needed during the quar-ter.
The ceremony at the university,
campus marks the latest goal in
a course of scholastic endeavors
going back to 1939, when Elving
Anderson enrolled in Bethel Jun-ior
College. At first he planned to
go into the gospel ministry, and
he had a student pastorate for a
time during his seminary training.
However, when he received his
Bachelor of Arts degree from the
Unniversity of Minnesota in 1945
and Dean Carlson asked him to
teach at Bethel, he accepted the
job. Here he felt he fitted better.
"I like the classroom situation,"
he says; "you can check your work
and evaluate the results of your
teaching as a pastor cannot." He
continutd -teaching at Bethel aad
studying at the University, and
got his Master of Science degree
in 1949.
Now Dr. Anderson plans to
make Bethel the place of his
teaching career. On the side, he
would like to keep on with re-search
at the University such as
he has been doing for the past
five years.
When asked how it felt to be
a Ph. D., Anderson replied, "I
think that high school graudation
is the most thrilling one. After
that the graduations start coming
along every few years."
Dr. Anderson is the second Be-thel
College professor to receive
a degree since the beginning of
the school year. Paul Grabill re-ceived
a Ph. D. from the Univer-sity
of Illinois on September 26,
V. Elving Anderson Receives
Doctor of Philosophy Degree
V. Elving Anderson, Bethel College's assistant professor of zoo-logy,
passed a milestone in his career last December 17 when the Un-iversity
of Minnesota conferred on him the degree of Doctor of Phil-osophy.
Dr. Anderson majored in zoology, minored in physiology. His doc-toral
thesis, which will be published in the near future when he has
included more data, was on the heredity of human breast cancer.
Honor Roll Announced;
Five Students Have 'A' Aver.

Page 2 THE CLARION
"Honor to whom honor is due." This an-cient
adage is not intended as a rational
ization for empty flattery, but it should
rather typify the expressed appreciation
of those grateful for a job well done. Re-cently
two moves by two campus groups
deserve a note of rightful recognition (per-haps
the one more than the other, though
both are significant).
The planning, programming, and adver-tising
activities carried on by the F M F
in preparation and presentation of Mission-ary
Emphasis Week merits a word of ap-preciation.
The displays of souveniers and
relics from the mission fields set up in the
student lounge have succeeded in giving a
better-than-average picture o f interesting
sidelines on the mission fields. The frontal
decoration of the chapel has been very
unique in impressing on-lookers with the
global aspects of the cause of Christ.
In short, due to the commendable efforts
of the F M F it could be well said that
Bethel campus has been made increasingly
conscious o f world - wide missions. The
CLARION takes this opportunity in ex-pressing
a sincere note of gratitude for
this splendidly executed project.
The other action which deserves mention
and recognition is that taken by the com-mittee
of the junior class that decided the
choice of the junior class play for this year.
The selection of "The Tragedy of Julius
Caesar" by William Shakespeare and
"Samson Agonistes" by John Milton indi-cates
an upward trend.
This action arouses the earnest hope
within many of us that a high caliber play
from the cultural standpoint might become
a traditon for years to come. Perhaps at
last we have grown out of the idea that
the high school type drama should set the
pace for college level appreciation.
Such an undertaking by the junior
class ought to be carefully encouraged by
-- students and faculty. This year's effort
may be considered an experiment. Its suc-cess
will inevitably enrich the college year.

I had the opportunity of spending
Christmas vacation with international stu-dents
at Bear Trap Ranch in the Rocky
Mountains of Colorado.
There I met international students from
Egypt, Chile, India, Malaya, Japan, Indo-china,
Philippines, China, Finland, Ger-many,
Panama, Formosa, Palestine, Hawaii,
and Australia.
I remember that when I for the first
time had entered the log cabin and was
still standing in the open door and shak-ing
off the snow of my shoes and coat,
another student walked up beside me and
said, "I am Jimmie, I'se from Hongkong."
I turned around, somewhat startled by this
rather interesting introduction, but when
I met Jimmie's searching eyes, I also told
him my name. And when we then looked
through the open door, looked onto those
snowy mountains till our eyes reached the
top, I was really glad to be here.
This was my first acquaintance with
Jimmie. Later on in our conversation
Jimmie, who comes from a home where
ancestor worship is practiced, remarked:
"I would like to have a religion in order
to overcome the emptiness in my life."
Or Bisham, a student from India, a mem-ber
of a Brahman family, "I wish I could
believe in a just God. I want to go back
to India and want to help to push forward
the industrial development of my country.
But I am afraid that I won't be very
effective, as long as I have no spiritual
backing up. And India is a land where
those spiritual and intellectual values are
much more prevalent than those material
Besides Hinduism and Christianity there
were also Mohammedanism and Buddhism
and several philosophical systems about
God and man represented in our midst.
They all showed great respect for Jesus
Christ. Again I saw something of the un-iversality
of our great Lord Jesus Christ
had many things of importance to say to
And when Cesar, who came from Pana-ma
and studies architecture—he was often
sketching a building or a scenery—rec-ognized
that Jesus Christ was the answer
to his search, he explained, "Friedhelm, I
do not understand everything about Chris-tianity,
but I do want to receive Jesus
Christ, the gift of salvation."
Cesar and I sat down. We opened the
Bible and listened to God's Word. Togeth-er
we prayed- for forgiveness of sins in
Cesar's life.
The next day Cesar told me how glad
he was that now he could be sure about
his salvation. "I am glad that I do not have
to worry longer about salvation. But I
want to be grateful to Jesus Christ. I
think that I owe him my whole life."
This was a rather unusually rich week
when we in discussion talked about our
home countries, about our impressions of
America and the American people.

"not counting Sun.
and holidays"
by Don Richardson
Born in the autumn of 1950 as an over-flow
activity of a local church young peo-ples'
group, the Bethel Tract Team thrived
in its infancy. Its parents were unimpor-tant
people. Only one could even be class-ed
a student leader; many were freshmen.
It had no official guardian.
Its first year was a miracle. Though ex-posed
often to sub-zero temperatures for an
hour or more at a time in downtown MM-neapolis
and St Paul, it continued to gain
strength. While yet an infant it success-fully
entered the arena with competitive
activities. Soon it gained campus-wide re-cognition
and seemed able to stand at last.
The next three years found it continual-ly
popping up in Bethel student life. How-ever,
its first strength began to waver.
From an unexplainable source some form
of cancerous disease was starting to take
hold. It became less able to stand the
cold and good weather; it could no longer
shoulder competition. It made several ef-forts
to regain its former strength, but
such efforts did not last long enough.
Now, at 'length, the wasting process is
complete. The Tract Team is dead.
Its grave has been bedecked with few
wreathes, and its epitaph contains a
line, "It was a noble experiment." But
for those who were closest to the Tract
Team it was more than a noble experi-ment.
For some it was the incentive for
• their first witness for Christ; for others
it provided a step to spiritual growth; for
others it was a ladder to Christian leader-ship;
for several forgotten people it was
the agent of divine grace. These lament
its passing and rightly so.
The Value of
An Education
by Rip Moore
Our inquiring- reporter heard the other
day about one of the fine arts of student-craft
which has been flourishing at Bethel
for some eighty years. His curiosity ar-oused,
he began inquiring of various stu-dents,
"What is meant by 'padding' class
papers?" Here are some of the answers
he got:
A freshman: "Padding a paper means
using unnecessary words to make it long-er."
A sophomore: "Padding a paper means
putting more words into it than you need,
in order to make it appear that you have
more material than you really do."
A junior: "Padding is an expression that
denotes the practice of using long and
superfluous words to express an essential-ly
simple idea, for the purpose of adding
bulk to a paper for which the student has
actually exerted himself very little to gath-er
A senior: "Padding refers to the very
excessively (and unnecessarily) lengthy
phrases, the literary allusions "full of
sound and fury, signifying nothing," the
elaborately erudite circumlocutions em-ployed
to clothe with a false aura of know-ledge
a motley conglomeration of half-thought
thoughts and vapid generaliza-tions,
that the wily student fills his pages
with when faced with the task of writing
a thousand words for the professor and
having, to put it frankly, absolutely noth-ing
to say."

people who fail, fail because they cannot

it is that the age-long problem among

men and the warfare among nations.
And the reason is selfishness ; which

covetousness. A minor reason also is

Dear Editor,
This year we have had a high opinion of
the feature page of the CLARION, but
we couldn't help noticing a flaw of policy
in this recent contest between the various
classes of the college. Due to the some-what
vague editor's nate, it was very hard
to understand the exact basis of judgment
and selection. This would have made it
easier for contestants to compose their es-says.
Also we wonder if it was as well pub-licized
as it might have been. Something as
important as this should have •had a couple
posters at least. And too, would it not have
been much better if the essay of the seniors
had appeared first since they are the most
advanced class a n d should have pre-eminence?
We will admit the need and worth of
this contest and also the literary merit in
the essays published, but we think the
above criticisms deserve attention.

Saturday night Bethel won its first athletic contest of the year. It
was a lackadaisical performance that in many ways looked more like
a satire of basketball instead of an actual contest.
The first quarter was the most game-like quarter but it rapidly
regressed into a rat race which found Bethel leading at the final

Robles Virtual Cemetery at Find A Grave
Let me acknowledge here and now that I have used the masthead logo above from the actual Find A Grave website. Hope they don't shoot me as I am a contributor to this wonderful and free site and utilize their logo with the humblest respect.
Most genealogists will be aware of Find A Grave and their contribution to the research of our ancestors so don't let me preach to the choir, as it were. However, for the Sonoran Jackrabbits family, La Familia Robles (The Robles Family) of Arizona, California, Sonora, Mexico (mainly) let me tell you a little about the site so that you also may become interested in contributing to Find A Grave.
Basically, it's a virtual graveyard. No, the concept is not as cold I may make it sound. Here in one place a person wishing to locate the final resting spot of their loved, and maybe unloved ones, may be found. The contribution of information regarding the deceased comes from people like you and me. We upload to the site biographical information, historical information, photos of the individual and perhaps (hopefully) their headstone marker to the cemetery where they are buried. There are thousands of cemeteries with millions of memorials listed for all 50 states and all around the world. If the cemetery doesn't exist on the Find A Grave site you may add it.
We don't just add our family information to this site, but others. Imagine how marvelous it is at midnight to find the resting spot of someone you have been looking for, for over 40 years and just never seemed to have been able to locate when you traipsed all over the cemetery in the heat and the cold where they were suppose to be buried. I know because it happened to me.
Around midnight sitting in Little Rock, AR, tired and thinking I'll check just one more name on a whim, I entered my brother's name, David Joe Vasquez under the Globe Cemetery, Globe, AZ search and to my amazement his name appeared. I clicked on his name and found myself looking at his headstone. I have been looking since I was 18 years old (that was awhile ago) to find his grave....even our mother who is 91 years old now could not recall where he was buried....him having died as an infant when she was 18 and too poor to afford a headstone for him at the time. The city records for the graveyard could not tell me which plot was his. But someone knew and has honored his memory with a beautiful marker.
Located, at last, because of a stranger's kindess to take a photo and upload it to the Find A Grave site. And there are probably thousands of stories like mine.
Now, here is what I think is the really cool aspect of Find A Grave. They allow us to create a virtual cemetery for our loved ones. No matter which cemetery they rest at we can 'bury' them at our virtual cemetery. That's almost inconceivable until you do it. I created a virtual Robles Cemetery where our loved ones from 20 different cemeteries are gathered together, so to speak. The link for it is below.
Find A Grave from a genealogy point of view really is invaluable. Gave great happiness to a 91 year old woman who now knows her child has a headstone to mark his existence. It was found from 1000 actual/cyberspace miles away. You can't put a price on that. But from a practical standpoint, while it's ALWAYS preferable to be able to visit the actual cemetery you are researching, it is not always financially or timewise practical to do so.
Robles family I challenge you to stop at that cemetery you are so used to just driving by, armed with your camera so that you, too, may become a contributor to Find A Grave.

Watching my two children open the many gifts they were blessed with from friends, family and their parents, over the holidays raised a question for me. What can I give my children that they can enjoy when I'm no longer around? What can I give them that they can share with their Children's, Children's Children? The answer for me is Commercial or Income Producing Property. Namely small to mid-sized Commercial Real Estate. By small to mid-sized I mean assets whose value is in excess of $1 Million. I understand that Commercial assets is not as exciting to my children as the new leap pad games they received for Christmas but it's certainly the gift that will keep giving. In this article to we will explore three advantages to building a legacy with Commercial Property.
Income producing Real Estate in general is a great long term investment because of the high demand. As an investor in Apartment Buildings, I need only point to the basic needs of life, food, shelter and clothing, to justify that there will always be a need for shelter. Of those three needs, the need for shelter is, in my opinion, most important to the average individual. The Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2011 Consumer Expenditures News Release reports that the average American spends 26% of their income, before taxes, on housing. As we examine our own economic spend plan housing is undoubtedly the largest bill for most of us. This further supports the claim that real estate is in large demand.
Next, Income producing assets are great long term investment because of the principal of leverage. One of my mentors used to say "You make money in real estate when you buy not when you sell… you must Buy Right!" Quoting him here is not as impressive without the Southern accent over the word 'Right.' What he meant is that buying a property must be done strategically with the goal of making money in the forefront. You must be able to leverage the money you use in a deal. Leverage occurs when money is borrowed at a certain interest rate that is less than the rate of return of the property. Leverage enables a commercial asset to pay for itself. What better asset to have than an asset that not only produces income but produces income in excess of its expense. Leaving such an asset for the generations that follow you is powerful.
Lastly, Commercial Property, namely property whose value is in excess of $1 Million, can more often than not support itself. The income produced from the monthly rents can be used to pay the mortgage and hire a staff of professionals to maintain the asset. Of course you can do everything yourself (Not Recommended) but if the property makes enough income to hire a professional lawyer, accountant, landscaper, property manager etc. why wouldn't you? More importantly, if your Children or your Children's Children are passionate about something else and don't want to be full time real estate investors they can hire professionals to manage the asset that funds your legacy.

Supergiant says still no date for Transistor, but aiming for 2014
Last we'd heard, Bastion-creator Supergiant Games' next project, Transistor on the PC and PS4, would be out early this year, but with no release date for the title yet the indie studio seems unlikely to hit that wide mark. But they are still "on track" for 2014, says the studio.

Rudy Carpenter (born April 15, 1986 in Westlake Village, California) is an American football quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League. He was signed by the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in 2009. He played college football at Arizona State.
Carpenter led Westlake High School to a 14-0 record and the 2003 California Interscholastic Federation Division II championship. Carpenter was named the Los Angeles Daily News Offensive Player of the Year. He was also given a pre and postseason All-America selection by Prepstar Magazine. Carpenter was listed as the No. 67 player in California by SuperPrep Magazine and listed as the No. 36 player in California and a preseason All-American by SuperPrep Magazine. He was rated as the No. 20 quarterback in the nation by Rivals.com. He played in the Cali-Florida High School All-Star game. His statistics as a senior included 2,705 passing yards (163 completions on 262 attempts) and 36 touchdowns and only six interceptions, and he also rushed for 626 yards and seven scores and led Westlake to a Division IV Championship and a 14-0 season.
Carpenter started the final five games of his freshman season. During that time he was the most efficient quarterback in the country and led the Sun Devils to a victory over Rutgers in the Insight Bowl. The following fall, Sam Keller, whose injury allowed Carpenter to become the starter in 2005, was named the starting quarterback by then-ASU coach Dirk Koetter. But two days later, Koetter reversed his decision and Carpenter was given the starting job. Keller subsequently transferred to Nebraska and Carpenter went on to have a less than desired season. In 2005, Carpenter earned second-team Freshman All-America honors by Scout.com and was named an honorable mention Freshman All-American by Sporting News.

From an athletic perspective, research reveals that strength training improves golf performance by increasing club head speed and driving power 8. Empirical evidence indicates that strength exercise may also enhance other physical activities s as tennis 9 and cycling 10.
While all of these health and performance factors are important, perhaps the most compelling concerns for most seniors are the three "B"s. These are bodyweight, body composition, and blood pressure. Generally speaking, senior men and women are concerned about gaining weight, getting soft, and experiencing elevated blood pressure. They have already discovered that dieting doesn't produce permanent weight loss, and that walking is not very effective for firming muscles. Quite true. They are afraid to try strength training because they've heard that it will increase their blood pressure. Untrue.
Several small-scale studies have shown that strength exercise is effective for decreasing bodyweight11, increasing lean weight 12, and reducing resting blood pressure13. In addition, strength training results in a higher resting metabolic rate 14 and greater daily energy utilization 5.
But what specific changes can seniors expect from a basic program of strength exercise? We recently analyzed data on 1,132 men and women who completed the South Shore YMCA basic fitness program 15. All of the participants performed 25 minutes of strength exercise and 25 minutes of endurance exercise, two or three days per week for a period of eight weeks.
The strength training program included the following Nautilus exercises: (1)leg extension; (2) leg curl; (3) leg press; (4) chest cross; (5) chest press; (6) super pullover; (7) lateral raise; (8) biceps curl; (9) triceps extension; (10) low back; (11) abdominal; (12) neck flexion; and (13) neck extension. Each exercise was performed for one set of 8 to 12 repetitions, at a slow movement speed (2 seconds lifting and 4 seconds lowering), and through a full movement range. Resistance was increased by approximately five percent when 12 repetitions were completed.
The endurance training program involved treadmill walking and stationary cycling. Participants exercised at about 70 to 75 percent of their maximum heart rate, and progressively increased their training time to 25 minutes of continuous aerobic activity.

I'm Pat Rosenheim, a.k.a. the PandA Trader.
I no longer use MS Excel spreadsheets to record dividends. I am now using Google spreadsheets for my holdings and to record dividends. They are as up-to-date as I can manage, but will lag by a day or so due to delays in the cost basis reporting from the brokerages. The share prices should update close to real-time, however, with a possible slight delay (~20 minutes) from Google.
On my Google spreadsheets, you can find portfolio holdings, dividend amounts, dates (dividend pay dates, record dates, declaration dates, dividend amounts, ex-dividend dates, etc.). I have moved the cash and withdrawal amounts to the Google spreadsheets as well as the dividends spreadsheet. I will still post screenshots on the Dividends Received page.
I only post for my holdings, but they're as accurate as I can make them. The symbols are; ACSF, ARCC, ARR, BDCL, BDJ, BFK, BGH, BKN, BTA, CEFL, CLM, CRF, CSQ, CXE, DFP, DHF, DHY, EAD, ECC, EVN, FFC, FHY, FIF, FLC, FPF, GAIN, GLAD, GOF, GUT, HIX, HPF, HPI, HPS, HYB, IVH, JPC, JPI, JPS, KIO, LDP, LEO, MAIN, MAV, MFM, MHI, MITT, MORL, NAD, NEWT, NHF, NRO, NRZ, NVG, NZF, OAKS, OIA, ORC, OXLC, PDT, PFD, PFO, PHK, PHT, PMF, PML, PMM, PMX, PSEC, PSF, RA, REML, RFI, RNP, RQI, SAR, SCM, STK, TICC, TLI, TPZ, TWO, & UTF. Quite a list, eh? (82 total issues held; 16 common stocks, 4 ETNs, and 62 CEFs, of which 17 are tax-free muni CEFs.) Most pay monthly! Only ARCC, BDCL, MITT, NEWT, NRZ, OXLC, SAR, STK, TICC, & TWO pay quarterly.
This series of blog posts is issued `weekly, but since the majority of our holdings pay dividends near the end and/or beginning of the month it may not always warrant a publishing blitz. There are usually 4 posts in the series when posted. The sharebuilder updates are issued weekly and the monthly withdrawal update is issued monthly. I think you should try to catch all 4, plus the sharebuilder updates and/or the monthly withdrawal update if you're so inclined. Occasionally I'll throw something else up for ridicule or admiration like my recent final posting about "Profiting from Preferreds", so feel free to be entertained!
Of course, if something major happens I might be tempted to throw something up about that. Or not. Like the recession, depression, World War III, or whatever…
From now on I will make monthly sharebuilder investments (Usually on the 1st Tuesday) using all 12 of the 12 monthly 'free' trade credits for each "investment day", with additional trades (if any) under the AIP plan costing $1 each. I will be investing equally. It's all shown on the ind-PandA, Roth-P, & Roth-A account tab.
I have partially moved our Roth accounts from Fidelity to Capital One Investing (ShareBuilder), initiating the first part of the transfer around March 1st. The second and final partial transfer was completed for my wife's Roth. The 3rd and final partial transfer of my Roth completes the transfers for both Roth IRA accounts. When that first transfer became effective for the 2nd investment day in March, I began to make weekly sharebuilder investments (usually every Tuesday) using 4 of 12 monthly 'free' trade credits, with additional trades (if any) under the SIP plan costing $1 each. The next month was a "full" investing monthly, with 4 investment days, so I initially invested equally based on adding 3 ETNs to the account (BDCL, CEFL, MORL). I have now switched to the investment schedule located on each account tab on my Google spreadsheets, and I plan to invest in the top 12 holdings in Annualized Return in each account. It's all shown on the individual account tabs on my Google spreadsheet. Or, maybe I'll do something different. Who knows?
Anyway, let's continue with a look at the dates;
The most up-to-date method to view our holdings and expected dividends is to click here (will open in a new window).
Here's a look at the dates spreadsheet, showing the ex-dividend and pay dates of each dividend (also shown on the calendar). I sometimes use info like this to time purchases or sales after a stock goes ex-dividend, due to the anticipated drop in stock price, or to make sure I own a stock before the ex-dividend date to ensure I am entitled to the dividend. I mainly use it to keep track of the dates and amounts of the dividend. YMMV!
Click here for the dates sheet.
Look on the right side and you'll see a chart (table) sorted by last declared ex-dividend dates.
This is that table;
But, as always, "Don't be hasty" as Treebeard would say. 😉
I'm not telling anyone to buy anything or giving anyone any advice, because that's illegal. You see, I have no letters after my name, like RIA, CFA, etc. I SIMPLY DO NOT GIVE ADVICE. I only tell (and show!) what I do. You, like me, are all alone in this.
And remember, always do your own due diligence!

OK, I subscribe to all the major business news magazines & papers. I set my alerts to get any kind of corporate business information that will give me a competitive advantage. I get tons of alerts a day- so much that it annoys me to no end. But I need to do it. Tonight, as I search through the internet, I wonder why the only "black corporate news" I've gotten in a while was the story on Xerox's new incoming CEO. Now, don't get me wrong. I understand the huge significance of this. I am very proud of Ms. Burns. But where is the rest of "our news"?
I get my "black news" from Black Enterprise, Black Engineer, The Network Journal, you know the standards. But outside of that, you never ever see any black news from Wall Street, or the Fortune 500 set unless it's about Barack or Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Robert Johnson or Magic Johnson. I never really paid much attention to it because I've always had my old stand by BE.
As I set out to create my Google Alerts, I did a search. Black Corporate Women as a search was almost non-existent. African American Corporate Women did no better as a search term. I know we're out there. I don't want to just see them when Working Mother trots them out in their "diversity" issue or the BE top Blacks in Corporate issue. I swear to you, if I didn't know the names of many prominent Black people in Corporate America, I'd be lost. I know who to search for to find news on them. But what about others who are looking for role models and turn to the web for information only to be disappointed? I found more links on crap (sex ads, naked women, black women got attitudes) than anything of substance.
We've got to start holding the media outlets accountable. This is not new. As much as I love BE, I need some diversity in my reading material. Why is it I still get shocked when I see a person of color in the pages of Fortune, Forbes, Bloomberg (a rarity) or any of the news tv channels?
What are we going to do about it?
Til next time,
Adrienne Graham

Star Tribune Reporter Larry Oakes Dies at 52
By: Scott Gillespie | Star Tribune
To be honest, many newspaper stories, editorials and columns are routine. Get the report or news release, make a few phone calls, and write up a dozen or so coherent paragraphs. Home for dinner by 6.
Larry Oakes wrote hundreds of those everyday stories during his 30-year career as a reporter with the Duluth News Tribune and the Star Tribune, and he did them well.
But we should remember Oakes, who took his own life this weekend in the hills outside Duluth, for his ability to give voice to the vulnerable and marginalized. That's what drove Oakes, 52, and that will be his legacy in journalism.

A-List Faction Kindly Asks SAG Not to Totally Destroy Hollywood
A sturdy cross-section of topline Hollywood talent from Tom Hanks to George Clooney to René Auberjonois today urged SAG leadership to back down from its '09 strike threat. Maybe even more noteworthy: Who's missing?
The letter echoes the more moderate tack previously taken by Clooney and others, with 130 signatories suggesting that continued negotiation and — sooner than later — a settlement with the studios would be preferable to nudging the film industry into a fiery, recession-era cataclysm:
We feel very strongly that SAG members should not vote to authorize a strike at this time. We don't think that an authorization can be looked at as merely a bargaining tool. It must be looked at as what it is — an agreement to strike if negotiations fail.
We support our union and we support the issues we're fighting for, but we do not believe in all good conscience that now is the time to be putting people out of work.
None of our friends in the other unions are truly happy with the deals they made in their negotiations. Three years from now all the union contracts will be up again at roughly the same time. At that point if we plan and work together with our sister unions we will have incredible leverage.
As hard as it may be to wait those three years under an imperfect agreement, we believe this is what we must do. We think that a public statement should be made by SAG recognizing that although this is not a deal we want, it is simply not a time when our union wants to have any part in creating more economic hardship while so many people are already suffering.
Endorsees include Hanks, Clooney and fellow A-listers Charlize Theron, Helen Mirren, Diane Keaton, Alec Baldwin and Kevin Spacey — and none of the notorious Olive Garden Star Chamber (including Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep and Warren Beatty) who've been rumored to support the strike-authorization movement. A few other notable absences include Ben Affleck (whose wife Jennifer Garner and BFF Matt Damon both signed), Hanks's spouse Rita Wilson, and Michael Douglas, who is probably just worried that he'll never get his residuals if he rocks the boat. We'd probably play it the same way, even if it meant not aligning ourselves with the likes of Bruce Boxleitner.
Anyway, the tribal warfare is on! Call your shots below.

It's time for some more exciting new releases from Topshop Make Up – this is the Make Up Edit SS13, with a selection of trend-led products as designed by Topshop Makeup Artist Hannah Murray and the Topshop Design Team. Described as a premium make-up collection that encapsulates those essential, ultimate products to create a sleek polished make up look with a flash of high definition colour.'
And when you see the pictures you will realise that when they say a flash of colour, they aren't kidding…!
First up a mention of the packaging, the glossy silver does have a premium feel but overall I actually prefer the main line of Topshop make up packaging as it feels a little more unique than this collection. I do like how it has the more delicate white dots – as a nice little nod to the main line style.
Now on to the colours…starting, erm…subtle?!
First up is the Lip Paint in the shade 'Low Down' and there is nothing low or down about this bright orange! Right now it looks scary, but I'm sure on tanned skin in Summer it will look just stunning. Sadly I doubt my skin will ever look quite tanned enough to pull it off though!
Next there is 'Straight Ace'…another not so subtle shade! A bright, bright, purple – this one is different to any other purple looking shade I've ever had before. Previously I've had ones that look purple in the bullet but when applied look softer or sheerer – not this one though. What you see if what you get – bight, unashamed purple. Very smooth, very creamy, purple.
Then there's a safer feeling classic product in the form of 'Carbon Copy' mascara – love the wand on this – big fat fluffy brush. Just how I like it!
Then my favourite of the bits I've been playing with – a stick blush in 'Acting Up', which is described as an orange shade. But I find it's on the slightly coral shade of orange, not too orange and when blended it's gorgeous! The swatches above show it blended out and swatched heavily to show how it contrasts.
This is just part one of my posts on the Topshop Make Up Edit SS13 collection – I have another one to come soon!
But what's your view of this Edited collection from Topshop Make Up? Loving the colour pop or a bit daunted by the intense colour?!
Topshop Make Up Edit SS13 available from 15th Feb at topshop.com (prices starting from £6)

Baguettes: sourdough levain and a little Rye
Another go at baguettes. Made this weekend. 70:20:10 (AP:Bread:Whole Rye); 68% Hydration, Overnight retardation at 50°F. Excellent wheaty flavor, with an edge (probably the Rye). All the Bread flour was prefermented feeding the levain builds. This dough is essentially the same as that I mix for sourdough batards; only difference being 45;45;10 (AP:Bread: Whole Rye) flour ratios.

World of Warcraft patch 3.3.3 is now live, giving players an all-new, all-random way to queue up for the game's popular player-versus-player battlegrounds.
Much like the previously implemented Random Dungeon system, the Random Battleground system, live today in World of Warcraft, allows solo players and parties of up to five characters join a queue to be inserted in a randomly chosen battleground scenario. Players won't know what battleground they are participating in until they zone in, adding a little bit of variety of the game's end-game fare.
I say end-game fare, because the feature is currently available to level 80 characters or higher, which should be pretty much everyone at this point anyway.
The Random Battleground feature replaces Daily Battleground quests, with the new feature awarding players additional honour to spend on all that shiny equipment they so crave.
Head over to the World of Warcraft patch notes page for more information on the changes instituted in patch 3.3.3, or just log in and see for yourself.

It's Spring but Cattle Markets are Still Frozen
April 23, 2013
by Derrell S. Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist
There seems to be a chill on cattle markets…both literally and figuratively. Cattle markets remain hunkered down due to weather and other impacts. The unrelenting cold, wet spring continues to have a variety of impacts on both the supply and demand sides of cattle and beef markets. Domestic beef demand is stagnant and certainly seems to be lacking the seasonal push that usually accompanies warm weather.
Choice boxed beef cutout has been hovering near the $190/cwt. range with little sense of direction the past three weeks. The Choice-Select Spread has widened seasonally but is the result of weaker Select values rather than strength in Choice values. International demand for U.S. beef has also weakened amid Russian concerns with Ractopamine and weakness in major markets, such as Mexico, where relatively high U.S. beef values have been aggravated by a somewhat stronger dollar since January.
There is growing evidence that extended cold weather has increased beef cow liquidation. Total beef cow slaughter has been up 11.1% the last 4 weeks after declining early in the year. Year to date beef cow slaughter is now down a scant 3.7% from last year. Increased beef cow slaughter appears to be regionally widespread, though regional slaughter data are incomplete. In Region 6, the Southern Plains, beef cow slaughter has been up 15.2% the last four weeks but is still down nearly 12% for the year to date. Oklahoma auction data confirms the recent increase in cow culling as cow and bull volumes in federally reported auctions have been up nearly 23% since mid-March after declining over 24% from January through mid-March.
The latest Cattle on Feed report also suggests weather impacts on feeder markets. Unexpectedly large March feedlot placements were largely concentrated in Texas and Kansas. The Kansas placements were mostly heavy weight feeders from winter backgrounding programs. In contrast, the Texas placements were spread across lightweight to heavier feeder cattle and were likely partly the result of drought induced sales. Some may have been directly from cow-calf liquidations and others the result of forage shortages in winter stocker programs. The fact that large placements occurred in conjunction with weak feeder cattle prices suggests that the movement was more of a supply driven market situation rather than demand driven.
The Cattle on Feed numbers may also suggest implications for the broader cow herd. The number of heifers on feed has fallen sharply since the middle of 2012. The April 1 heifer on feed inventory was down 7.6% year over year. However, this value is less of a decrease than the January 1 heifer on-feed total, which was down 9.5% from the previous year. This likely indicates that much of the increased feedlot placements were heifers, probably including some heifers designated as replacements in the January inventory report. The combination of increased beef cow slaughter and relatively more heifers on feed at this point likely means that any prospects to avoid […]

First Tundra for me.
By HG on Thursday, February 01, 2018After driving high end F-150 and Ram trucks I decided to give the Tundra a try and bought a 2018 Tundra Limited CM 4x4 with most available options. Prior to the Tundra I had a F-150 Platinum which was nice but had many recalls, TSBs and warranty repairs. They were free but it is an inconvenience to not have your truck while it is being repaired. Now to the Tundra: I lost about 3 MPG under like driving conditions but I knew that going in. The engine has plenty of power and the transmission is super smooth. Although the Tundra doesnt have every latest feature Toyota started to catch up with the 2018 model and the important stuff like BSM, ACC, etc. is there. I find the fit and finish great and there are no rattles or squeaks. I now have about 4000 miles on my Tundra and all I do is put gas in and drive it. The standard LED headlights are better then the ones I had on my last F-150 which I consider a big safety plus. I have the TRD suspension but find the ride still to be comfortable. The seats, instrument cluster and the remainder of the interior are nice and comfortable, even on longer trips. A whole new experience for me that I dont have to take in my truck for unscheduled maintenance, I guess it is true about the legendary reliability. There is room for improvement though. Why doesnt a 50K truck come with a remote start (not even available at this time)? The JBL premium stereo is subpar and I spent about 1200.00 for an upgrade from OEM Audio+ and also installed an electric lock for the tail gate. I would definitely buy the Tundra again!

Great Truck
By McCorkle on Friday, March 25, 2016I prefer the Tundra because it's not built just for looks or luxury. I have a Toyota Tundra Crew-max TRD Off Road. It's a great work truck. I bought this truck because it hauls great, performs well, and doesn't sacrifice comfort. Other vehicle companies are relying on the hype of it looking great and shafting performance.This is my second tundra Crew-max TRD. It's even great for the family.... can go camping with having no issues with space or the fact that you might have to drive through some rough terrain. If you want a reliable truck that performs great at everything you throw at it... this is the truck you want.

Great Truck!
By Tim on Friday, February 24, 2017I recently got my first Tundra, Ive wanted one for 10 years. Toyota quality is number one in my book. I dont think I will be trading this one in anytime soon. There are some things that should be looked at though. Gas mileage I feel like it could be a bit better, but then again I didnt buy it to get good gas mileage. Backseat I have the Crewmax which is huge and I love it, the only thing I wish was different was under the seat I wish the floor was flat and there wasnt a hump that was almost flush with the bottom of the seat. Besides those 2 things she is a pretty truck that I am proud to drive!

Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst thinks the Shandong Linglong case is a good weapon against Ted Cruz, so he's not letting up in swinging it.
On Wednesday, Dewhurst senior adviser Dave Carney faxed (faxed!) a letter to Cruz asking him how much he or his firm has received from the tire company.
The firm for which Cruz works is representing the Chinese company as it appeals a $26 million judgment awarded against it and a distributor in a lawsuit by a Florida businessman who said the company copied his blueprints.
The letter notes that on Cruz's personal financial disclosure form, he lists the company among entities by which he's been paid more than $5,000. The list appears to include clients for whom he's worked.
The letter, which accuses Cruz of "diversions and deceptions about your role in denying justice for American businessman Jordan Fishman," says:
"For transparency's sake, it is imperative for voters across Texas to know before Early Voting beings, how much money you and/or your firm has received since you accpeted the case to represent Shandong Linglong as a client?"
Cruz spokesman James Bernsen gave a stinging answer, but no amount:
"David Dewhurst has had 32 opportunities to ask Ted any question he wants, but doing so would require he stop hiding behind paid political staffers and actually show up for a real debate, something he's too scared to do, for fear of having to answer for his record of pushing a wage tax and increasing spending $72 billion.
"If Mr. Carney can actually find Mr. Dewhurst and drag him to a grassroots forum, he's free to ask any question he wishes, man to man. Texans are waiting."
Cruz's $72 billion figure compares the state budget total in 2002-2003 to the one in 2010-11. Dewhurst was elected lieutenant governor in 2002.

Here's what I did:
1. Googled Ohio State Archives
2. Landed on the Ohio Historical Society State Archives page
3. Clicked on the Newspaper Index link under the Digitization Projects section
4. Clicked on the Ohio Newspaper Index Search link under the Microfilm HOLDINGS List
5. Searched by County of Publication narrowing by date of death
6. BINGO! There it is: Roll 37403 Microfilm of the Dayton Journal, Dayton, Ohio from July1, 1879 to Dec 31, 1879.
7. Clicked on the Interlibrary Loan link (thinking "that's neat, never done that before")
8. Found out that my local library needed to place the request --> on to my local library's website
9. Filled in the online Interlibrary Loan Request Form
10. Went back to daily life....
11. SURPRISE! Got a call from my local genealogy department saying my microfilm had arrived! [Happy Dance!!!]
12. Relearned how to use a microfilm reader since most of my research over the past 10 years has been digital
13. Scrolled to the newspaper page dated around the time of death and held my breath...
14. Well, there it was - imagine that! I did it - NO index, NO digital search engine, just good ol' deductive reasoning.
Then reality sank in... wow, there is really something stirring about staring at the actual newspaper page that announced the death of a relative. This is real. This is personal.
I was able to read the other headlines on the page. These are the stories they read. This is the life they lead. For a moment I walked in their footsteps.
On column six it read,
Alas, the cause of death was not listed, but another gem lay buried there instead - the location of the family's home!DIED - JUDSON - Friday evening, December 26th, Charlie Raymond, son of Lewis and Ella Judson, aged 3 years, 4 months, and 7 days. Funeral from the residence, corner Brown and Hess, Sunday Dec 28th, at 2 p.m.

European Commission
Brussels, 4 February 2014
Commissioner Michel Barnier welcomes the European Parliament vote on the Directive on collective rights management
I congratulate the European Parliament on having today adopted the new Directive on collective rights management and multi-territorial licensing of musical works for online use.
This Directive is a cornerstone of the digital single market. It will facilitate the entry of smaller innovative suppliers on the European market. It will also contribute to wider availability and better choice of offers of online music in Europe.
The Directive will modernise the functioning of collective management organisations (also referred to as 'collecting societies') which manage copyright and related rights on behalf of rightholders, such as authors or performers, across Europe.
It will strengthen and improve the governance and transparency of these organisations. It will, for example, give rightholders the possibility to be more involved in the decision-making processes of their collective management organisations, set out minimum requirements relating to the governance structure of collective management organisations and ensure timely and accurate payments of royalties to rightholders.
In addition, the new rules will foster and improve multi-territorial licensing by collective management organisations for online music services (such as music download services or streaming services). Going forward, it will be easier for those services to cover a multitude of territories and a large catalogue of music, which in turn will increase the offer available in the EU.
Today's vote reflects the efficient and constructive inter-institutional work that has been done on this file. I am convinced the Council will approve the adoption of the Directive in the coming weeks.
I am very satisfied with the results obtained. I would like to pay tribute to the work of the rapporteur, Marielle GALLO, and the shadow rapporteurs. Their commitment and spirit of compromise have resulted in a text which will benefit citizens and rightholders (authors, producers or performers, their representative organisations, as well as service providers offering innovative services online).
In July 2012, as announced in its Communication A Single Market for Intellectual Property Rights, the Commission adopted its proposal on collective management of copyright and related rights and multi-territorial licensing of rights in musical works for online uses (IP/12/772). This proposal was important for the completion of the Digital Single Market.
Collective management organisations act as intermediaries between rightholders in a variety of industries such as music, books and films, and the service providers intending to use their works. They license rights and collect and distribute royalties in circumstances where negotiating licences with individual creators would be impractical and entail high transaction costs.
Cases of mismanagement of rights revenue and long-delayed payments have shown that there is a need to improve the functioning of collective management organisations.
Furthermore, the collective management of rights also plays a key role in the licensing of online music service providers (music download services or streaming services). Online service providers often want to cover a multitude of territories and a large catalogue of music. Many collective management organisations have not been able to meet these challenges, and service providers have faced difficulties when trying to obtain the licences necessary to launch online music services across the EU, resulting in fewer online music services available to consumers.

17 Apr 2012
(HONG KONG) Dragonair today announced a new menu for flights out of Hong Kong featuring dishes inspired by Man Ho, the premium Chinese restaurant of the JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong.
From mid-April, Dragonair passengers on flights from Hong Kong to Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei and Kaohsiung can enjoy dishes from a specially designed inflight menu created by Man Ho. Dragonair has also for the first time introduced its partnership menu on other routes including Nanjing, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Chengdu, Kunming, Qingdao and Fukuoka. The new menu (see Appendix) will be served to passengers until mid-April 2013.
Dragonair General Manager Inflight Services Cecilia Leung said: "Passengers like to see a variety of food options when they fly and enjoy sampling exciting new dishes from time to time. The demand for Chinese meals and high-quality airline food is on the rise and our catering team has put a lot of effort into creating new surprises to meet our passengers' needs.
"Dragonair is delighted to once again join hands with the world-renowned JW Marriott Hong Kong for our latest inflight menu. This time we are pleased that travellers to other cities in our network in addition to Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei and Kaohsiung will be able to enjoy the fabulous creations from the Man Ho team."
Man Ho is the award-winning Chinese restaurant at the JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong, offering authentic Cantonese served in a contemporary style. Its kitchen is helmed by Executive Chinese Chef Ip Kwok Fai, who began his culinary career 33 years ago and his team was awarded a gold and silver medal at the Hong Kong International Culinary Classic competition 2011.
Chef Ip has designed the menus taking into account the unique considerations of inflight catering. To cater for the preferences of passengers from some destinations in Mainland China, a number of dishes have been given extra spice by using chilli as an ingredient.
"It is indeed a great honour for JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong to continue its long-term partnership with Dragonair and to have the opportunity once again to extend a selection of exclusive dishes by Man Ho onboard Dragonair inflight menu. It has certainly been a rewarding experience for me personally to be part of this exciting collaboration and to be able to showcase Man Ho's culinary creativity in the air. It has also been such a great pleasure working with the talented team of chefs from Dragonair; from the menu design, food tastings to the implementation of the final dishes, which I hope the passengers will enjoy," Chef Ip said.

We are a start-up company. Our technology for visualizing connections between companies has been sold to some of the major business information providers and used by a large number of their customers on a daily basis. Our tool provides a user friendly interactive way for exposing and presenting connections between companies, their holdings, directors and other related data.
An initial demo can be viewed at:
Try searching for 'Teva' and click on "view business map" link that appears as part of one of the search results
Our vision is that our company become a major business information provider. By leveraging our proven presentation ability, we'd like to provide an online data management tool with the ability to share business information for the business community, as well as small and large companies.
Our target audiences include two steps: (1) at present and (2) later on:
(1) First stage: The Holding Tree targets large holding companies, of various industries, which own dozens of assets/companies. These Companies are usually publicly traded and well established, such as: http://www.tevapharm.com/
It is usually the secretaries and general consels of corporations, which are the senior administration management of these companies that will most use it.
(2) Second stage: An internet community based Information provider targeting the whole business public, including: "business" users, small and large companies.
Since our target audiences have a time frame of two stages, we are in a dilemma: On one hand, we want to be a friendly, easy to use and light product coming from a young, hip, creative and innovative software company.
Such as: http://twitter.com/
On the other hand, we are presently catering to large, well established, usually public and quasi-"traditional" companies, so we want to express security (of information), credibility, professionalism, such as :
Pay Pal: https://www.paypal.com
We are, therefore looking for a logo with the following characteristics:
- HOLDINET – the name should be included in the logo.
- COOL and INNOVATIVE because of the cool and innovative features of our product.
- PLAYFULL, since we want our product to be FUN to use (and different than other CRM systems).
- NEET, CLASSY, CREDIBLE because of its first stage target – public traded companies
- BUSINESS oriented – as the product will target the whole business public.
- SECURITY – as it includes information, and users want to feel safe about the info which they provide
- DYNAMIC and UPDATED since the business info should be "ALIVE" and in "MOVEMENT".
- The NO list: NOT too shiny, glam or flashy colors. Should include no more than three colors, and should reflect the above mentioned.
Looking forward to seeing your proposed logos.
