PITTSBURGH -- Sitting in new coach Mike Tomlin's office the other day, I got the impression he will be about as meat-and-potatoes as any other coach in football. On the wall of his office are three blown-up Steelers prints.
Dear Annie: I read with interest your Feb. 27 column about holding on to health-insurance benefits when changing jobs, but what about pay?

Ken Whisenhunt, who is scheduled to interview for the vacant Cardinals head coaching job in Arizona Friday and has already spoken with the Atlanta Falcons about their opening, has emerged as the favorite to succeed Bill Cowher in Pittsburgh, a source familiar with the Steelers' search said Friday.
It's going to take a while, isn't it? To see the Pittsburgh Steelers take the field and not think of Bill Cowher as the face -- the unmistakable face -- of that storied franchise. The jutting jaw. The flying spit. The look of complete disgust that launched a thousand heart palpitations whenever he aimed it in the direction of his chastised players.

My wife and I both contribute 8 percent to our 401(k)s and $200 a month each to IRAs. We have a little over $500,000 in total retirement savings (401(k), rollover IRAs and IRAs).

What do you think about this plan - and do you have any suggestions for the top-five dividend-producing stocks over the past 10 to 20 years.
