Please don't just look at the dividend yield without analyzing the sustainability of the company's dividend.

For example, CenturyLink Telephone recently had a dividend yield of over 8%. It was a dividend darling for many until last month when it announced it was cutting its dividend by 26%.

Look at the payout ratio (too high a ratio might indicate the dividend is in danger) and the company's history of raising its dividend.

Someone above mentioned Coca-Cola (KO) and ExxonMobil (XOM). Neither of those companies are paying really high dividends but both of them have raised their dividend every year for decades.

ETA: Full disclosure...I own both KO and XOM and have for many years.

What's the board's thoughts on PGH?

Looks like a decent dividend (as the OP is requesting) and they released their 2012 numbers and it seems they exceeded the expecatations.

ETR: 5.3%
LMT: 5.2%
MO: 5.2%

MO cut their dividend back in 2008 but it has been going up nicely since.

If you're open to MLP's I'd look at SEP and EPD.
