With thieves I consort, with the vilest in short, I'm quite at my ease in depravity, yet all divines use me and savants can't lose me, for I am at the center of gravity. Who am I?

Ranger AbnRgr289, please ask your 6 to post another riddle!
Please be advised that she didn't answer that, I did!!! But she can post another one anyway.

Flutter kicks....

OK...new riddle:

My last four letters are an accounting-related acronym. Remove my last three letters and my first letter, and you will lose your lunch. Remove my last three letters, and my second letter, and you have a type of exercise. What am I?

Ranger Matador275,

thieves, vilest, depravity, divines, and savants all have a V in them

and V is the middle (or center) letter in graVity!

Dee Septor, the famous magician, claimed to be able to throw a ping-pong ball so that it would go a short distance, come to a complete stop, and then reverse itself. He also added that he would not bounce the ball off any object, or tie anything to it. How could he perform this trick?

Okay, well I'm pretty sure the word is churlish...and I looked it up:
1. Of, like, or befitting a churl; boorish or vulgar.
2. Having a bad disposition; surly: â€œas valiant as the lion, churlish as the bearâ€

Clearly I spent too much time thinking and not enough time reading...
