The goal of this project is to conduct primary research on individuals who served and died in the First World War in Europe. You are asked to write an essay that tells the story of one service person's actions during the war. The information you compile will be sent to the Canada Remembers Division of Veterans Affairs Canada to become part of a national databank. Please read and follow all instructions carefully.
Your teacher will assign to you and your fellow students the name of a service person inscribed on the cenotaph in your community. These names will be added to a larger comprehensive list of service personnel names from the First World War, all of which will be researched using military files held at Library and Archives Canada, and military history textbooks, databases and Web sites.
The service person's name assigned to you must be copied correctly, just as it appears on the cenotaph. This will allow you to access the databases of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Veterans Affairs Canada and Library and Archives Canada.
Once you know the name of your service person, write it on the "Library and Archives Canada Order Form for Military Service Files" template given to you by your teacher. You are now ready to follow Steps Two through Five to complete the required research.
Go to the Library and Archives Canada Web page Soldiers of the First World War (1914-1918) to obtain information about your service person. By typing the surname and given name of your service person in the spaces provided, you will obtain the service/regimental number or rank and a record group reference, which contains the box number. Please enter these data in the designated columns on the order form. Once the names and data have been added by all students, your teacher will verify the information and ensure that it is complete. (Your teacher may wish to add a few more names of service persons and their corresponding data in the event that a particular file cannot be located.) Your teacher will then fax the completed order form for military service files to Library and Archives Canada.
Once Library and Archives Canada receives the order form, employees in the Researcher Services Division will copy and send the information to your school within 30 days. If your school is located in the National Capital Region, your teacher may wish to arrange a visit to the Canadian War Museum to consult original military service files as part of a workshop.
If you are researching service persons whose Attestation Papers are digitized on the Soldiers of the First World War (1914-1918) Web page, you can download and print them. They will provide more details to complete your "Military Service Record" and "Service Personnel Information" templates.
Download and print the "Service Personnel Information" template and the "Military Service Record" template from the "Starting Templates" folder on your school network server. Once you receive these templates, you can access the following Internet sites to complete as much of the information as possible. These two sites provide different details that you will need to complete your work.
On the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site, simply fill in the criteria for the search fields and obtain information on your service person. When completed, go to the Canadian Virtual War Memorial site of Veterans Affairs Canada and continue compiling research on your service person. Follow the criteria outlined on the templates to gather as much information as possible. The two most important pieces of information you are looking for on the latter site are the service or regimental number (e.g., 781324), which will help you obtain even more information at other Web sites, and the battalion to which your service person belonged. Once you know the specific battalion (e.g., 2nd Battalion), you can research it further on the Internet or on the Library and Archives Canada Web site by accessing the ARCHIVED - War Diaries of the First World War.
Be very careful in copying down information. Please ensure that you cite all information properly. See the essay on Clarence Garfield Mainse in the "Finished Templates" for footnote and bibliography examples.
Once you have accessed the above information from the Internet and have completed the templates, scroll down to the bottom of the Canadian Virtual War Memorial page that contains the information for your service person, and open the "Cemetery Plan" if one is given. Copy and paste this onto a blank page. To reduce the size of the graveyard image, save a copy of it as a jpeg file, then cut and paste it onto the "Grave Reference" template provided in the "Starting Templates" folder. (See "Grave Reference" example in the "Finished Templates.")
Once you have established the country where your service person is buried, the date of death, the number of the regiment and the battalion, you must investigate to see what battles were taking place at the time your service person died. This is going to take some time and will require organization, thorough research and deduction skills to pinpoint the battle. Once you have pinpointed the battle, you can access the Internet sites listed below for battle maps and more information.
For an overview of the major battles of the war, visit The War Times Journal and scroll down to "Battles & Campaigns". A second Web site that provides excellent background is Trenches on the Web Library.
There are many additional Web sites to help you understand the First World War. For a selected list, see "Further Research" in the main menu of this project site. Please ensure that you cite all Internet sources and the information you obtain from them correctly in your bibliography. Remember, these Web sites are starting points and you will need to search the Internet extensively for more information on the First World War.
Once you have established a general knowledge of the European theatre of war, you will begin to work on creating a complete profile of your service person. It is important to realize that you are about to write history, bringing a face and a name as well as historical detail to an individual in your community. Until now, this individual has remained largely anonymous. You will become the expert on this service person by writing an essay and completing the templates. In the end, you will be able to describe what your service person did during the First World War and reveal how, when, and where your service person died. (See the essay on Clarence Garfield Mainse in the "Finished Templates.")
Publications that are easily accessed at school or at the local public library are important for your work. Among the many sources on the First World War, Library and Archives Canada recommends the following texts as excellent starting points for your research.
Berton, Pierre. Vimy (Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, 1986).
Dancocks, Daniel G. Legacy of Valour: The Canadians at Passchendaele (Edmonton: Hurtig Publishers, 1986).
Dancocks, Daniel G. Spearhead to Victory: Canada and the Great War (Edmonton: Hurtig Publishers, 1987).
Swettenham, John. To Seize the Victory: The Canadian Corps in World War I (Toronto: Ryerson Press, 1965).
These texts provide background to Canadian battalions and major battles of the First World War. Use the indexes or chapter headings and search for specific words such as the battle in which your service person died (e.g., Vimy), the battalion (e.g., 2nd Battalion), or the division (e.g., 1st Division). You may not be able to locate your service person exactly, but if you know the battalion and the date of death, you can cross-reference that information to specific battles. By using these research techniques you will gain a better understanding of what happened to your service person.
Also, all students must refer to the book written by Colonel G.W.L. Nicholson, entitled Canadian Expeditionary Force, 1914-1919 [PDF 1492 KB]. It is a comprehensive study of battalion movements, and lists the dates and battles which will help you pinpoint the movements of your service person. This source provides you with facts about the battle in which your service person fought and died. You will be able to confirm this information when you review your service person's medical records contained in the military files sent to you from Library and Archives Canada.
Use the following guideline to search Nicholson's book for the information you need. If you are looking for specific battalion information, scroll down to Index - Part II, pages 660 to 671. If you are looking for information on specific battles, scroll down to Index - Part I, pages 615 to 659. For information on Canadian Units in France and Belgium and what battalions were in which divisions, scroll down to pages 516 through 518. To find out where battalions were mobilized in Canada, scroll down to pages 525 through 528. If you need to know the commander of specific divisions and battalions (Canadian Officer Corps), scroll down to pages 511 through 514. To view six battlefield maps from Nicholson's book, go to Canada and the First World War.
Examine the documents contained in your service person's military file sent to you from Library and Archives Canada. Once you have done this, you are ready to write the history of your service person, drawing from all the information you have gleaned from the military file, textbooks and Internet sites. Please see the essay on Clarence Garfield Mainse as an example of a completed history with correct use of footnotes and bibliography.
Often the military terminology used in service personnel files is written in an abbreviated form. To help you understand it, Library and Archives Canada has provided a list of abbreviations and acronyms with corresponding terms and meanings. Please see "Military Abbreviations, Terms and Meanings" under the Resources to Complete Cenotaph Research.
Your teacher will make arrangements to have your completed research saved onto a CD-ROM. Make sure you write your name on your essay and your service person's service or regimental number (e.g., Clarence Garfield Mainse, 781324, by John Smith). It is essential that you save your work in Corel WordPerfect or Microsoft Word format.
Lastly, Library and Archives Canada wishes to thank you for working on this national project and for taking the time to write a historical account about one individual who served and died in the First World War - a history for all to appreciate at the local, national and international levels.

FLU OUT BREAK. INFLUENZA EPIDEMICS. NATIONAL PANDEMIC. These alarming phrases are being tossed around media outlets conveying a serious and severe flu season. What's the deal? Is the hype warranted? More importantly, do we on Long island really have to be worried?
HERE ARE THE FACTS. New York has already seen two pediatric deaths and 18 children nationwide have died due to the flu this season. 19,128 cases of influenza have been reported in New York at the present time. In comparison, the total amount of positive laboratory tests for the flu last year only amounted to 4,404.
Also, while Hurricane Sandy may be long gone, her overwhelming effects have placed many of us Long Islanders at increased risk for contracting the flu due to less than optimal living arrangements, lack of access to healthcare providers, and from the increased stress of rebuilding our homes and businesses.
THE FLU IS HERE, and based on the CDC's numbers, we haven't even reached the peak yet. State officials took note and heeded the public health warnings - New York State Governor Cuomo understandably declared a public health emergency in New York. Such an order isn't for show or political credentials.
By Cuomo declaring such an emergency he gave pharmacists permission to administer flu vaccinations to people who previously weren't able to receive them - most importantly young patients between the ages of six months and 18 years old. This order suspended state law that previously restricted pharmacists from administering the vaccinations to minors.
Health officials everywhere are stressing how important is it that everyone, adults and children, get their vaccine - and it's not too late considering the flu season can last as long as May.
SO MANY REMAIN VULNERABLE. During their most recent conference, the CDC stated that the current vaccine uptake estimates indicate only 36.5 percent of people six months and older have received a flu vaccination this season.
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) states on their Vaccine Education Center website, "Many people who die from influenza actually die from complications related to the illness, such as pneumonia or a secondary bacterial infection. Most of these people did not have the vaccine.
In some cases people had the vaccine, but it did not work well enough or at all for them. We know that for every 10 people who get the vaccine, about six or eight of them will be protected from influenza. The others may still get influenza, but in most cases - not all - their disease is mild."
How devastating can influenza be? History reminds us that it can be vicious and unforgiving. The 1918 influenza pandemic killed 21 million people in a single influenza season.
And of course we only need to look back to the flu season of 2003/2004, one of the most lethal seasons in the past 35 years, with more than 48,000 deaths.
Unfortunately, the dominant type of flu during that season is the same one seen this year.
VACCINE SUPPLY. Still need to get yourself or your family vaccinated? While supply is low, if one is willing to make phone calls, then you'll be able to find a clinic or pharmacy distributing the flu vaccine. To make the hunt easier, use the HealthMap Vaccine Finder. The site includes more than 40,000 locations across the United States. Users can plug in their addresses or ZIP codes and find which sites are offering vaccine close to home (http://flushot.healthmap.org/).
ARE THE 2012-2013 SEASONAL FLU VACCINES SAFE? Yes. Over the past 50 years, flu vaccines have been shown to be safe in multiple of national and global studies. The 2012-2013 flu vaccines have a similar safety profile as past seasonal flu vaccines.
According the Centers for Disease Control, the most common side effects seen with the flu shot are soreness, redness, tenderness or swelling and nasal congestion after the flu vaccine nasal spray. The CDC and FDA closely monitor the safety of seasonal influenza vaccine and other vaccines, and work to quickly identify new or rare adverse events, or health problems following vaccinations.
GOOD HYGIENE. After vaccinating oneself from the flu, practicing good hygiene is an important part of staying healthy.
Proper techniques include: washing hands often, using a hand sanitizer, and keeping surfaces clean.
People should avoid touching their eyes, nose and mouth, as these areas are the main portals that viruses enter.
An often forgotten tip that can decrease the spread of germs is using a tissue to cough or sneeze and then discarding it immediately.
The media has it right this time; the flu season is not to be easily dismissed. If you haven't already, protect yourself and your loved ones - get vaccinated today. Stay safe and healthy!

I've been doing strictly CrossFit for the last year, and I've lost 40 pounds in the process. However, I've lost a fair amount of strength as well. I started looking for a strength biased program that I could use to increase strength while still doing metcons. I found Chris's Conjugate CrossFit program, and started it last week. I have to say that I love the workouts so far. My first ME upper day I pressed 160 (185 is my old PR), and yesterday was my second ME upper and I easily pressed 165. I felt like I could have done 170, but I thought it'd be a better idea to leave some in the tank. I understand this doesn't mean a ton since it's only been one week, but I thought I'd put this out there for anyone who may have been thinking about this program or for someone who's been searching for something similar. Thanks for a great program Chris!
Nice work on the weight loss.
I know that there are a couple of Crossfit gyms that use some of the information from that article in their training (one of which is Crossfit Strength in Charlotte - I post their daily workouts here).

Chris's article was one of the things that helped push my training toward a conjugate model. I think it is a good and overall natural blend to those wanting to build strength and still maintain a good conditioning base.
If you have any questions about the program feel free to ask here. Remember to really push those PRs on ME days. Don't get emotionally charged for the lift, simply approach it with focus and a reasonable degree of intensity. The accomplishes the goal of leaving some in the tank for when you attempt an all-time PR.
I run CrossFit Strength in Charlotte, and we have seen dramatic results with our people. Chris' article was the catalyst for our programming. Can't say enough about the effectiveness of WSBB training for strength and explosiveness. Our clients, young and old love the training.

I've been toting with the idea of getting my barbell out at home and do some extra strength work in the evenings. My strength since joining CF has gone up but I want it higher to perform better in WODs, whether metcon or strength based.
I'll have to see if I can incorporate some of this into my workouts without adding soreness that will hinder the regular WOD. suggestions?

Matt, we do have a couple of BJJ guys and they pretty much follow the program as is, from time to time we may switch out the WOD for a CrossFit Football WOD to keep the time domain under 20 min. These guys get plenty of cardio when they roll at night during practice.
Thanks Tony, that's basically what I was thinking

What do you guys recommend for CNS recovery? I find that the ME days, especially ME lower, really take a lot out of my CNS. This is something new for me, as I didn't have this problem when I was under 30. I also didn't have any issues when I was doing nothing but CrossFit. I'm not sure if it sounds odd, but I feel emotionally drained is the best way that I can put it.
This might be you breaking into the program if you haven't been doing much strength work and mainly CF metcons before starting Chris' program. Also, if you are following Chris's program to the letter, you want to try and keep your metcons no longer than 10 minutes and avoid really heavy ones.
When you say CNS breakdown, what exactly are you referring to? For me I feel just drained all the time and not motivated.
My experience compared to others is that I might be sore/tight locally for a day, but usually not generally fatigued for several days after a Max Effort day.
Easy fix for your problem:
- Take a week off.
- When you resume training be sure to not get emotionally/physically excited prior to your 1RM attempt. Getting all jacked for every max on your ME days will quickly lead to burnout. There are training maxes and meet maxes. It's ok to get excited at the meet, but not in training.

Tom, you have to be a subscriber to the journal to read that (I believe).
Chris, I saw on the CrossFit forum that you're now in favor of a complete Westside program with two metcons a week added in. I'm interested in what has changed your mind.
Just further working with athletes. In other words, I'm always looking for better results and the full template plus 2 WODs seems to do just that.

Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — John Gallagher met Joe Mihalich 25 years ago, when he was a 10-year-old ball boy along for the ride with the LaSalle men's basketball team on a trip to Notre Dame.
He's been a fan ever since.
"Amazing guy," the Hartford coach said Wednesday night in the basement of the Gallagher Center. "Always been the same. An energy-giver, not an energy-taker.
Earlier in the evening, Gallagher had the bittersweet experience of watching his friend earn his 250th coaching victory at his own expense.
Pressure defense fueled Niagara's 75-59 win over Hartford and pushed Mihalich past his latest milestone.
Antoine Mason, who wrote "250" on the board in the locker room before the game, had 19 points, seven rebounds, three assists and three steals to lead the Purple Eagles (4-6) in their first home game since Nov. 18.
"We knew about it, we kept talking about it," Mason said. "We had to get it for him. He's a great coach."
Trailing 11-7 eight minutes into the game, Niagara used an aggressive, three-quarter court trap to storm back and build a big lead, forcing 10 turnovers that all lead to baskets while finishing the half on a 30-9 run.
"We took it personal this game and wanted to show that we can play defense," Mason said.
"That was our main goal, to run them off the line because they are a great 3-point shooting team, rebound and get out and run," said Ameen Tanksley, who filled the stat sheet with 16 points, 12 rebounds and three assists.
Hartford (5-5) came in shooting 37 percent from 3-point range and taking 41 percent of its field goals from beyond the arc. Struggling to get the ball across halfcourt on several possessions, the Hawks managed to shoot just 7 of 24 from long range against Niagara.
"Joe does a great job with his zone," Gallagher said. "We didn't do a good job, conceptually, attacking the zone."
On the other end, the Purple Eagles shot 50 percent from both inside and outside the arc and 70 percent from the foul line. But they did turn the ball over 22 times, of which most were self-inflicted.
"It's unacceptable," Mihalich said. "We're not good enough to do that."
Hartford used a 14-1 run to cut the lead down to 67-57 with 3:42 left to play, but a fallaway jumper from Mason ended the threat.
Malcolm Lemmons had a season-high 11 points, including an off-balance, off-the-glass 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer. Juan'ya Green added nine points and four assists. Freshman Tahjere McCall got his first start because of his perimeter defense and had four points, four assists and three steals. Marvin Jordan returned from a two-game injury absence to score six points. Devon White had six points, four rebounds and two blocks in his second game of the season.
The Purple Eagles will try to get Mihalich career win No. 251 when Sunday when the top team in Hartford's league, Vermont, visits the Gallagher Center.
After Wednesday's win, Mihalich called himself "a lucky guy."
"It means you've got good players, that's for sure," he said. "I say it all the time. I'm living the dream. I'm lucky to be here and lucky to coach these guys and the rest of the team."
In Gallagher's opinion, Niagara is lucky to have Mihalich.
"He's got to be considered one of the best coaches," Gallagher said. "He really knows how to get his guys to play hard. He does a phenomenal job recruiting. His plan is detailed. His guys know what they're doing.
"Put it in perspective. First, how many guys stay at one place 15 years? He's been offered five or six different jobs. We all know that. He loves the Niagara area. He turned down LaSalle, his alma mater. He grew up in Philadelphia, but he's from Niagara Falls. He's from Buffalo.
"... He's a great role model for young coaches like myself. For him to get 250, I know it was against me, but I'm proud to say he's a friend."

|#1291 Subject: that should do for now Posted: 01/23/2008 10:25:25
Just your stats for now, those sats i don't get i'll just get them off Wild-dogs club if it's still up. Anyhoe I hope to have the e-fed home cleaned up for the show soon, just been busy with working out details of mine and Deaths tag team, Stern's back story, working on my first set of role plays for the Finale(yeah role plays their like promos but genrally longer and more detailed) because trust me It's as I told Death last night you guys are not going to see the Stern at the level i was at when i was here nope I'm brining my current A game here.
Oh Xavier, I hope you don't think i'm taking over which i'm not I figured I should set up the club page for this since I was the one who desgined it and coded it, which honestly wasn't that hard or complicated(for example: the background color is just a table statement that isn't closed) but I kinda want to contribute more to the show than playing Stern here one last time.
|#1292 Subject: one more thing Posted: 01/23/2008 10:29:58
I'm not speaking for Xavier who running this last show, but I don't see why you guys can't go to the club now and start getting some practice in since I know alot of you hadn't worked a fed since here. Now as for me I know I wont need it lol :-p
|#1293 Subject: Sounds good Posted: 01/23/2008 14:33:53

|#1294 Subject: Well if it's possible Posted: 01/23/2008 15:36:21
Pending if it's cool with you and we have enough guys ready How about the week of Feb. 20th as IWX will be on a one week break so me an death will should be free, well I would be freer(is that even a word) than normal as I would only have to possibly RP a match in my other Fed if I get booked(which is always. not complain it's nice ta be wanted) so yeah oh let me know what the show will be called as well so i can slap together a quicky logo for it.
|#1295 Subject: Oh heres a example of what I will be doing Posted: 01/23/2008 17:42:25
They aren't the best examples of what A role play is and I'm not trying to sound cocky but they will give you guys a idea of what to expect outa me.
Example 1:
The scene opens up to a little bar lying on the outskirts of Dublin, Ireland it's dark out
and the stars are dotting up the sky like a thousand little candles while the moon lays fat and bloated in the evening sky as the camera is now fixed on Chris from the right side as he walks up to the door and we hear the loud sounds of singing and laugher mixed with clinging glasses carrying on the air creating a warm feeling from within but this feeling is lost on Chris as he opens the door and makes his way in camera in tow. There is a slight cheer from the small crowd as he's seen almost like a conquering hero coming home from a brutal battle victorious. Chris ignores it and makes his way to the front of the bar where he's greeted by a familiar face.
Man(speaking in a thick irish accent): Good ta see ya made it brother it's been a long time.
Chris: Yeah three years is a long time, Tim but when I heard that your finally going to settle down I had to come, so where is the lucky lass?
Chris takes a spot next to time at the bar and leans against it lazily as Tim scans the bar and settles on a location and makes a come hither motion and out of the sea of people a young woman emerges she is a striking sight to behold with her long mane of curly reddish hair, deep green eyes that complement her fair skin and as she moves past him to he can smell her sweet scent. Chris is hard pressed to keep his instant attraction from coming to the surface but he can't deny that he wants her.
Tim: Christopher this is my fiancee Catlin and Catlin this is..
Catlin quickly interrupts Tim mid sentence as she comes face to face with Chris and extends her hand to him
Catlin: Your cousin Chris Stern, it's a pleasure ta finally meet ya Christopher, Tim can't stop talkin about his famous wreslter cousin from the states.
Chris takes her hand in his and instead of shaking it brings it up to his lips and gently kisses it while locking his eyes with hers
Chris: The pleasures all mine I assure you.
and with that Chris lets her hand down and flashes a sincere smile and if Tim is angry
at this display we hardly notice as he seems to rather just be chalking it up to Chris being Chris, besides his own Kin who is like a brother to him would never betray him like that.
Tim: So Christopher I know ya got a big match commin up this week but hows about you stay for a while and have a few drinks and we'll catch up on ol' times? Turns back to the bar and gains the attention of the bar keep and orders three pints as Chris and Catlin make their way to a free table in the back followed by Tim carrying Three pints of Guinness. As Tim places the drinks down as Chris and Catlin take their seats. Each of them grab their pints and raise their glasses
in the air.
Tim: Here's to new beginnings for as me and Catlin will start on our road of life together so My dear bother Christopher will begin his road to his first World Championship run in IWX.
Both Chris and Catlin join in with a unified New Beginnings and the three of them quickly consume their pints and place the glasses on the tables. Soon Tim eyes the bar with renewed interest something that isn't missed by Chris.
Tim: Well up for another round?
Chris seeing the opportunity to have some alone time with Catlin quickly agrees, and as Tim saunters off to the bar Chris smiles arrogantly to himself.
So Catlin how long have you and Tim been together?
about two years now, we had meet oddlie enough at a pub I was working at, he tried and tried for two months straight to get me to go out with him but I kept refusin, but he keep layin on the charm
|#1296 Subject: Feb 20th is a wednesday Posted: 01/24/2008 07:46:59

I understand that NCW needs to go down after this next show but would anyone here be interested in joining a new efed here on 1up? an entirely different experience with old friends and some new ones as well? I know that I would like that and I am in basically throwing this out there to try and see how everyone will respond.
|#1303 Subject: sounds good.. Posted: 01/29/2008 22:23:18

|#1304 Subject: Merry MuthaFcuking Christmas Posted: 01/30/2008 10:44:51
You get Dante, enjoy.
Im down for the last show. And yea, I'll extend the olive branch to help with matches and the like, once again, enjoy
|#1305 Subject: ok Posted: 01/30/2008 11:10:38
whats all this bull sh*t about a last show? What have I missed?
|#1306 Subject: Thats is true Posted: 01/30/2008 11:18:31
Feds live and die on two things decent decated management and decated players, if a fed is lacking one or the other it fails it's just that simpile. Take all the incarnations of NCW for example: it kept failing simpily enough because the majority of the guys would be really deciated in the beginning and but towards the end no one but a few were showing up for example season 2 when Hunter was in charge towards the end of his run all we had was me as Stern, Jack, Altone, Wild, Death, Wolf, Avenger, Billy Hill, and Dante(X) and that was it Altone left for a breif stint in OUW, Followed two weeks later by me, and that brought the actual roster down too 7 not a good number, Sure Avenger took over brought back Sgt. America, Hollywood Jayson and brought in the talented Mr. Stevens as Chaos and yet after more no shows and sqaush matches and such even the most dedicated of this place threw in the towel and NCW died again from what killed it the first time if i'm correct. which brings me to my point(i honestly don't think anyone will read any of this and i don't fucking care) If the players, e-talent, superstars whatever you wish to be called don't put in some effort or at least make the attempt it drags on us all the other people playing and the management. resulting in weaker rp/promos and thus a crappier show, because honestly compition brings out the best because you both want to win and will push yourselfs to promo better than the other and that makes the management happy because It makes them want to write a great show to refelect your work, in short better hype means better matches and better matches mean better shows and all of that attracts more people. Get it? good. Why do you think OUW has been around for 4 years while NCW couldn't even make it a full one three times already. As for decent Management that is easy and a blissfully short explination: If a fed is run by a moron or morons sure they may have a few decent months but the talent pool will soon seek greener pastures to play in and they'll close down..honestly who would want to deal with idiots?
|#1307 Subject: RE:Stern Posted: 01/30/2008 13:06:04
Amen brother! All that you said was true! I gotta admit thouh i got sick of efeds my self. I craped out of the 2nd or 3rd season but yeah so lets give this one last show a good well... last show lol. Whats the roster so far????????
|#1308 Subject: Here's who I know so far are confermed Posted: 01/30/2008 14:31:57
me as The true superstar Chris Stern, You of course Jack, Death, Wild, Rugged, Xavier Santos, Dante, Mr. Reality DG Poole, Hunter, Mansanty, and if needed I already said I will play Psychosis again as well making a total of ten/eleven so far that I know of Xavier of course would know more.
|#1309 Subject: who is interested in the new efed? Posted: 01/30/2008 19:23:57
I would like to know who is interested in promoing in a new efed as I and Chris Stern are going to be working on this together and before we do so we need a dedicated roster of people we know and some new people as well.
So what I am saying is: for those who are interested in coming in to this new efed send me a message ASAP and be prepared to promo for each match you are in and if you cannot then a valid reason must be given, we cannot have NCW number four now can we?
Also if there is anyone else that you people know that would like to join please get them to do so.
I look forward to hearing from each of my former NCW friends soon as it pertains to this last show and the birth of a new efed here on 1up.
|#1310 Subject: Seriously guys Posted: 01/31/2008 13:37:23
I know that you guys have been burned time and time again by the failing of NCW and are hesitent to put in your time to another failed e-fed, fine thats good I get it but I have some great ideas that will hopefully make this new fed work and make it a diffrent and fun experiance for you guys, plus as I told Death after one or two shows I will have what i would need to do some heavy recruitment drive, honestly were not asking much just for a little support from you and give us a shot trust me I will do everything to keep it from failing. seriously, i'm already planning on workin two charecters as well as helping with match writting and such.
|#1311 Subject: I guess Posted: 01/31/2008 19:45:25
I'm in since a whole bunch of you are going toward with it. Lets see how it goes and how long it last.
|#1312 Subject: Just a note Posted: 02/01/2008 18:57:00
This(to my knowledge) will not be another revial of NCW after the one night only/Finale show that will be it for NCW and the club page will serve as a memorial. This fed that me an death will start will be a New fed, new owners, new name, new titles(maybe) and so on.
just clarifying that.
oh and Jack thanxs for being willing to give us a chance. trust me the last thing I want to deal is another fed that i really start loving and it dies or it seemingly in the thrulls of death.
|#1313 Subject: great to hear Posted: 02/01/2008 20:39:41
From you Jack as I have always believed you to be a solid promoer from NCW that deserved to be World Champion but for some reason never got the chance to be. If you can maintain your promoing skills from the past, build on them, and stay the course with this next efed then you will without a shadow of a doubt be a contender in no time.
Avenger has told me that he will support us and aid in the moderation of this new efed should we want him to which quite honestly would be great as I have many duties in the real world to attend to at the moment.
I have heard that Wolf is on board, Wild-dog, Hunter may come in, and I do believe there are others who will join in time.
In the meanwhile Stern we need to come up with the name, rules, and pretty much all the info for this new efed ASAP as the Finale for NCW us coming up and I want us to have an announcement prepared for the show regarding the new efed.
Thanks everyone for coming back in to the NCW one last time and being willing to give it another shot in a new efed as it means a lot to me to hear from everyone I promoed with and against in the past, kinda pathetic really but I don't give a shit lol.
|#1314 Subject: Wow i'm impressed. Posted: 02/02/2008 05:21:18
First and for most thanxs to all of ya who are goin to give this a shot. okay death msg me either here or on IWX(though it's bassically dead) And well start brainstorming.
|#1315 Subject: Alright Posted: 02/02/2008 10:26:07
From what I can see, the NCW is going down. Right so far? And theres going to be some last stand show like OUW had i take it? If so, sure as hell better count my ass in! i love NCW man!
|#1316 Subject: ok so so far Posted: 02/02/2008 14:35:55
its (in no order)
Chris Stern
Wild dog
Avenger, altone are on the fense so for now they out. I hope I got everyones name, theres gonna be a flood of info in the coming days about the show, stay tune.
|#1317 Subject: I give up Posted: 02/02/2008 21:39:11
I hate tryin to pm someone on 1up. Death i tryed to message u twice didn't go through have some ideas goin and possible names for the new fed, would just tell ya to pm me in IWX but i doubt i'll be checking back since it's dead now(i'm takin osh's offer to join IIW but still will co-mod our fed) and it's to damned depressing to see another decent fed go out like that. so see if you can get a msg through to me(it lets me reply for sum stupid reason) and i'll send ya my ideas. -Jay/Stern/Psycosis

Final Score: Seattle 43, Denver 8
East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - The Seattle Seahawks rode the NFL's best defense to the franchise's first Super Bowl title. Peyton Manning? He never came close to winning his second. Seattle scored 12 seconds into each half and racked up 21 points off turnovers on the way to a 43-8 rout of the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII on Sunday. Percy Harvin's 87-yard kickoff return touchdown to start the second half came after Seattle also scored 12 seconds into the game on a snap that sailed over Manning's head and into the end zone. The safety counted as the Super Bowl's fastest-ever points. Manning might have set passing and touchdown records in a dream regular season for the highest-scoring offense of all-time, but his third Super Bowl was a nightmare from start to finish. On the field his brother Eli calls home as quarterback of the New York Giants, Manning threw two interceptions in the first half and both were turned into touchdowns by the Seahawks. Marshawn Lynch scored on a 1-yard run after the first pick and Malcolm Smith returned the second 69 yards for a 22-0 halftime lead. Cliff Avril hit Manning on the throw and Smith, the game's MVP, stepped in front of the floating pass. It was a red-hot start for Seattle in the first Super Bowl played outdoors in a cold-weather city. The climate wasn't a factor for either team. After months of speculation that the game would be marred by bad weather, especially during a winter that has seen so much of it, the temperature at kickoff inside MetLife Stadium was 49 degrees. Demaryius Thomas, who had a fumble that led to a Seattle touchdown, caught a 14-yard touchdown pass from Manning at the end of the third quarter and the Broncos got the two-point conversion on Wes Welker's catch, their only points of the game. Russell Wilson -- the former third-round pick -- was 18- of-25 for 206 yards for Seattle and Lynch rushed for 39 yards on 15 carries, never breaking off one of his "Beast Mode" runs. Seattle didn't need one in its second Super Bowl apperance. The Broncos fell to 2-5 in seven Super Bowls. The two wins came in consecutive seasons in 1998-99 behind quarterback John Elway, now the team's executive VP of football operations. They have another all-time quarterback in Manning, who has led the Broncos to the AFC's No. 1 seed in both of his seasons as their quarterback after missing his last year with the Indianapolis Colts following several neck surgeries. Manning, 37, was trying to become the first quarterback to lead two franchises to a Super Bowl win and was attempting to match brother Eli's two NFL titles. He threw for 280 yards, completing 34-of-49 passes, and is now 1-2 in three Super Bowls after going 1-1 with Indianapolis. Manning won his record fifth NFL MVP award after throwing for 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns in the regular season, both league records.

Same president, same challenges
Seems the market was surprisingly surprised by Obama's win. With that uncertainty out of the way, the market's near-term course should become clearer.
Though President Barack Obama had been reported leading in virtually all the polls for some time, it would seem that the stock market had not been handicapping him as the winner, given that the market gapped aggressively lower on Wednesday in the wake of his victory. In fact, it took less than two hours for the market to shed just under 3%.
For those folks who had correctly expected this election outcome, you might have been scratching your head at how the market managed to hold together leading up to an election that was likely to result in dividend and capital-gains tax rate hikes, in addition to the fiscal cliff.
Of course, we don't know for sure that we will go over the cliff, as the can may get kicked down the road. But certainly from an economic perspective, there is not much chance that the next couple of years are going to be very different from the last four, i.e., pretty subpar from a gross-domestic-product and job-generation standpoint.
Thus, it will be up to low interest rates to keep some sort of a bid in the equity market.
I know that the hypnotized never lie
Now that the election is over and the market faces the reality of discounting those outcomes, the near-term direction of the market may be clearer and lower.
My recent strategy has been to short S&P futures, which I have done a couple of times for some brief trades. (Given that we have so many crosscurrents, holding any speculative position for very long is difficult and potentially dangerous, and not an advisable strategy for amateur investors to employ. And for the record, for me precious metals are not a speculative position, as that is a sector I have been involved in -- and expect to be involved in -- for some time.)
As regular readers know, I expect at some point the bond market will revolt, and though it is hard to say when, I was somewhat intrigued to hear on Tuesday night that a decent chunk of respondents to exit polls thought rising prices were our No. 1 problem. This is decidedly not what one would expect in the midst of a supposed deflationary period.
I have noted many times that declining prices in certain asset classes (such as real estate, which has stabilized for various price points and locales) is not deflation, so there is no point in rehashing all of that. And in the meantime, now that we have gotten our election out of the way, we can turn our attention to what the new leadership in China looks like, and what sort of stimulus programs its new leaders might have up their sleeves.
And from our à la carte menu, Apple turnover surprise
Speaking of tricks up one's sleeve, I am probably going to shock a few folks, but I decided to buy some near-dated Apple (AAPL) calls early this week (even though, as I said in a recent column, I think Apple's stock price has most likely peaked) after talking to Fred Hickey and reading his newsletter last weekend. (As an aside, if you have not subscribed to The High-Tech Strategist, I cannot recommend it more highly.)
As anyone who has read Hickey's most recent report knows, it is very likely that Apple will have an extremely strong quarter, yet, meanwhile, the stock has been in the penalty box. Thus, this is a bit of a contrary trade, and again, it is not a recommended course for most individual investors. But it will give me a bit of exposure to Apple's upside if the market decides it wants to rally in the wake of the election. The reason I chose to buy the calls, which expire before this column will be posted, is that I can limit my risk to a few dollars while Apple itself can swing wildly.
While it is very important to have conviction in your investment strategies, it is sometimes even more important to be flexible in your thinking. This trade on my part is certainly an example of that, as well as being contrary, given the recent performance of Apple's stock price.
S&P does not support this message
I was curious to see how the 1,400 level would hold on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) following the election, as that appeared to be a floor recently. But the first time the Spooz (S&P futures market) traded down to that level during Wednesday's session, it punched through it to 1,385 before bouncing. Meanwhile, the chart of the Nasdaq ($COMPX) looks even worse, as that index is now not only below its 200-day moving average, but gapped through it on Wednesday.
This sort of action is precisely the reason I was willing to squander only a few dollars on my Apple calls, which were basically a way to participate on the upside should the market have decided to rally in the wake of a victory for Mitt Romney.
At the time of publication, Bill Fleckenstein did not own or control shares of any company mentioned in this column.
bill you are such an idiot and conservative shill at times. EVERYONE with even half of a brain knows that the sell-off was due to the 50/50 popular vote split along with retaining control of the House and increasing the number of republican governors. that lack of a clear mandate will fuel the extremi sts in the House and allow them to cling to their borderline-tr easonous pledge to the lob byist never to compromise or raise taxes - ever.
back to the same old gridlock, bickering and fiscal terrorism of the past two years ....
how do you type at a screen with your nose growing a foot a minute?
If they don't like it, just quit or take a salary cut. After all, they are not contributing any more than the heroes working on the Foxconn production line.
I just need to know (in advance) when that policy and legislation kicks in. I expatriate, mortgage everything, buy long dated Apple PUTS and clean up.
All that remains is me laughing and my middle finger to the U.S. progressives.
This health care is a simple fix. Everyone pays into a pool every paycheck. Based on your salary, you pay 2,3,4,5 dollars every week or two weeks that goes directly into a American HealthCare Tax. Leave the businesses out of it and let the American workers pay into it. Even people who collect an unemployment check would pay 2 bucks a week.
With 100 million workers, you would generate almost a billion dollars a month.
Done. Have a nice day and "don't forget to tip your waitress on the way out."
The next 4 years will be slightly different from the last 4 because the Republicans blew it last summer.
All the President has to do now is make damn sure that the Republicans are on the record against tax increases and the he can let the Bush tax cuts expire and spending cuts occur on Jan 1 2013 with the peace offering of reinstating tax cuts for the middle class if the spending cuts are renegotiated. The Republicans can't hold out for reinstating all the tax cuts or they'll being shooting themselves in the butt
Next the President can offer to modify Medicare and Social Security eligibility by increasing age by 1 year over the next 12 years for people under 55 years of age. Finally, we'll be out of Middel East wars by 2014 and hell will freeze over or 2016 will occur before we get into another one.
Get ready to pay increased taxes on capital gains and dividends and be out of the market by 2014 when the Republicans take over and interest rates start to go way up.

You may want a copy of this book in the form of a planar cellulose information
retrieval system, i.e. a printed book. They make good gifts, and are more familiar
to most of us than electronic copies. But finding a printed copy of a book is
sometimes difficult. This section is intended to give you some help by making it
easy to use the more common ways of searching.
1 The first column consists of links to the home pages of the biggest suppliers of books by mail: Amazon and Barnes & Noble. These two suppliers have mostly new books, and their new book inventory probably has an overlap of something like 90%, but this does not mean that they both have exactly the same price. Both of them also list used books from outside suppliers, and the used book inventories are usually quite different. ABE Books is a loose grouping of some 17,000 independent bookstores that list their inventory in a common database - most of these are used books that vary from just issued best sellers to rare and antique books.
From all three home pages you can do searches, look at comments, check prices of both new and used copies, look at various formats such as hardback, paperback, eBook formats and much more.
2 The second column has links to Barnes & Noble and Amazon pages describing their new eBook Readers. These have become very popular lately as they allow the purchase of new books and textbooks at prices lower than the printed copies, and in a format that many people find attractive.
3 Clicking on the links in the third column sends you to the supplier along with the ISBN (International Standard Book Number) of the book described on this page if we have been able to find that number. Note that an ISBN refers to a specific edition of a book. Thus a single book might have many ISBNs: Hardback edition, softback, large print, foreign language and so on. Usually the book listing on B & N or Amazon will have links to the other editions that are available.
4 Is our ISBN wrong, or perhaps missing all together. Help us out. Search on B&N and Amazon. If you find one, please let us know. Enter the thirteen (Barnes & Noble) or ten (Amazon) digit number (no dashes) in the boxes above and click on the Submit ISBN button. The numbers shown in the boxes are the numbers we have on file, or zero if we haven't found one.

The Beat Report: I cover the business of music & entertainment.
Though he's only 18 years old, Justin Bieber has had a year for the ages. The Canadian crooner released his third studio album, launched a world tour and continued investing in startups, adding to a portfolio that includes stakes in Spotify, Tinychat and others. All in all, he earned $55 million in 12 months.
"I do calls every week with my business manager and my lawyer," Bieber told FORBES this spring as part of a cover story on his budding venture capital career. "Each week I'm learning something about my business and what I need to know for my career."
But when it comes to the world's highest-paid musicians, Bieber is a relative pauper, barely breaking the top ten.
Hip-hop superproducer Dr. Dre leads the pack this year with $110 million, thanks largely to his Beats headphone line. He collected $100 million pretax when handset maker HTC paid $300 million for a 51% stake in the company last year, at the beginning of our scoring period; he and his partners later bought back half of what they sold.
"The brands are so aligned, Dre and Beats, it's just who he is," says Kevin Liles, former president of Def Jam Recordings, who now manages acts ranging from Young Jeezy to Trey Songz. "If you look at the biggest earners, the guys have been doing it for 20 years … what's happening now is people are really telling their truth."
Dr. Dre leads a slew of pop stars, rock icons, rap moguls and country crooners, many of whom bank the bulk of their bucks outside the recording studio. Though some artists—Jay-Z and Diddy, for example—owe their success partly to business ventures like Dre's, most of this year's top 25 are on the list because of touring.
"The concert business had another solid year as both artists and concert promoters used more caution in trying to achieve their touring objectives," says Gary Bongiovanni, editor of concert data purveyor Pollstar. "The good seats for major artists continue to be priced at a premium."
This year's list has a distinctly international flavor. Among the top five, only Dr. Dre hails from the United States. Pink Floyd rocker Roger Waters ranks second with $88 million, nearly all of it coming from his The Wall Live tour. According to Pollstar, he grossed $158 million on 63 shows in the first six months of 2012. Fellow Brit Elton John claims the third spot with $80 million, culled from over 100 shows in our scoring period.
Ireland's U2 ranks fourth, pulling in $78 million on the tail end of the group's record-breaking 360 tour—which grossed $736 million over three years. British boy band Take That rounds out the top five with $69 million, thanks to a wildly-popular reunion tour. The group grossed $61 million for eight dates at London's Wembley Stadium alone, the biggest single-stadium stand recorded to that point, cashing in on dozens of additional dates around Europe as well.
"The enormous level of business Take That did in the U.K. and Europe was truly mind-boggling," says Bongiovanni. "That's especially true when you consider that in the U.S. they would only be a theater-level act."
Our estimates are based on total earnings from May 2011 to May 2012—the amount of money an act makes from record sales, touring, endorsements, merchandise sales and other ventures before subtracting management fees, legal costs and taxes (which can gobble up the bulk of a big payday). The totals were compiled with the help of data from Pollstar, RIAA and others, as well as interviews with industry insiders including concert promoters, lawyers, managers, agents and, in some cases, the musicians themselves.
Other highlights on the list include Toby Keith, who tied Bieber for tenth with $55 million. With his Ford sponsorship now on its second decade and his I Love This Bar And Grill restaurant chain booming, Keith was the top earner among all country artists—unless you count crossover star Taylor Swift, who earned $57 million, same as Paul McCartney. Coldplay and Adele continue the British trend, claiming the 21st and 22nd slots with $37 million and $35 million, respectively. Eight of the top 25 acts hail from England or Ireland.
That success extends to Anglophiles as well: Jay-Z and Beyoncé, both close friends of Coldplay's lead singer, Chris Martin, combined to earn $78 million. The former Destiny's Child diva is one of just eight ladies on the list, but Beyoncé's song "Run The World (Girls)" still rings true—despite welcoming baby Blue Ivy earlier this year, she still out-earned her husband by $2 million.

Legend is legend..let's see who could touch that sum.
Oh please Micheal was virtually bankrupt in his last days and now thanks to this exploitation of his image by some individuals he is raking it.
MJ died almost BROKE.. BANKRUPT! and he shouldn't even be considered on the same list as those who are actually ALIVE! he belongs with the Marilyns, Marlons, Elvis' list, you know DEAD! POSTHUMOUS! He was a drug addict with some serious child molestation issues, even if they weren't true. Millions believe he did it and that will always overshadow his stellar career. It doesn't matter how much money he is making now, he isn't really making it.. It's the corporate business pulling in the revenues, not MJ… think before you post your hateful, disturbing, somewhat full of jealousy and envy against Madonna post… YOU WILL NEVER EVER BE AS SUCCESSFUL AS MADONNA IN THIS AND THE NEXT MILLION LIFETIMES… so stop the BS and report the TRUTH…
I don't actually see a musician on this list. Although fair enough I did stop reading after that revolting auto tuned Canadian nightmare. Sad, sad list.
Fair enough. Highest-paid, rarely equates to best, in any field.
Roger Waters, Paul McCartney (and some others) no musicians? Come on …
uhhhhh, where is Madonna on this list? I mean I know you guys hate her – what with all your Roger Freidman BS from earlier this year but really?
she has the most successful tour of the year, a film, a golden globe, a perfume, a second perfume, a shoe line, a #1 album globally, and the biggest audience in television history with the superbowl.
it was predicted Madonna Inc. would take in close to $500 MIL this year – even if it wasn't that high, where is she on this list?
i guess if its May 2011 to May 2012 that would make sense – but really guys, why do it that way – why not most of 2011, most of 2012?
but Roger did – glad you guys came to your senses.
Congrats to Michael Jackson for being number one but I'm a little surprised Madonna wasn't even in the top 25. That doesn't make sense considering her staggering ticket sales and sold out concerts. Where'd all that money go?

Bill Singer, Contributor
I am a critic of the inept and ineffective
It surprises most public investors that despite all the recent stock market crashes and data hiccups that there is no single comprehensive and readily accessible database regarding orders and executions. Instead of a unified database, each of the securities industry's self-regulatory organizations ("SROs") maintains its own separate audit trail system to track information relating to orders in its respective markets, resulting in an often Byzantine world in which no single, readily available snap shot of market data is available.
To critics of the present-day system of Wall Street regulation such as myself, this hodgepodge approach to trade data is akin to blindfolding the market's cops – and dangerously so in the face of fast moving tsunamis on the order of the recent Flash Crash. The last thing we need is for the SEC to be trying to contact several market centers over clogged phone lines or frozen online connections as the markets are melting down and panic is afoot. Unfortunately, that scenario isn't all that removed from reality.
On July 11, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") voted to require the national securities exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") to establish a market-wide consolidated audit trail ("CAT") in order to enhance regulators' ability to monitor and analyze trading activity. SEC Approves New Rule Requiring Consolidated Audit Trail to Monitor and Analyze Trading Activity (SEC Press Release 2012-134, July 11, 2012).
The new rules require that the exchanges and FINRA jointly submit a comprehensive plan detailing how they would develop, implement, and maintain a consolidated audit trail that must collect and accurately identify every order, cancellation, modification, and trade execution for all exchange-listed equities and equity options across all U.S. markets.
As explained in the SEC Press Release announcing the approval of the CAT rules:
[A]mong other things, the rule requires SROs to jointly submit a plan – called an NMS plan – to create, implement and maintain a consolidated audit trail. The rule specifies the type of data to be collected, when the data is to be transmitted, and how the data is to be prepared for regulatory use.
In particular, the rule mandates that the NMS plan:
Requires each national securities exchange and FINRA as well as their respective members to provide certain detailed information to a newly created central repository regarding each quote and order in an NMS security – and each reportable event with respect to each quote and order, such as its origination, modification, cancellation, routing, and execution.
Requires certain data to be reported to the central repository by 8 a.m. Eastern Time the following trading day – and be subsequently available in an aggregated format to regulators for their analysis.
Requires all reportable events to be tagged and stored by the central repository in a linked fashion allowing regulators to accurately follow an order through its entire life cycle from generation through routing, modification, cancellation, or execution.
Requires each broker dealer and national exchange to be assigned a unique, cross-market identifier to be reported to the central repository along with every reportable event.
Requires each customer as well as any customer adviser who has trading discretion over a customer's account to be assigned a unique, cross-market customer identifier to be reported to the central repository for every order originated.
Requires SROs and their members to synchronize the business clocks they use to record the date and time of any reportable event, and require timestamps – reported for each event to the central repository – to be in millisecond or finer increments.
The new rule becomes effective 60 days after its publication in the Federal Register. SROs are required to submit the National Market System ("NMS") plan to the SEC within 270 days of the rule's publication in the Federal Register. Once the SEC approves the NMS plan, the SROs are required to report the required data to the central repository within one year, and members of the SROs are required to report within two years. Certain small broker-dealers will have up to three years to report the data.
Frankly, one wouldn't think that the creation of the CAT and its implementation would be the source of much friction on the SEC – think again. This is one sausage that you probably don't want to watch them make. Consider the disparate and often dueling views expressed by the SEC Chair and commissioners cited below.
Sorry Bill, but I am confused, didn't the SEC mandate this back in 1999 or there about? OATS? Wasn't OATS developed while Mary was heading NASD? Weren't the vast amount of new regulations because NASD was colluding with Market Makers to fix the price of securities being traded? And around and around we go. I think I hear fiddles..
"In a gambit with such low odds of success that traders question its legitimacy, someone wagered $1.7 million that Bear Stearns shares would suffer an unprecedented decline within days. Options specialists are convinced that the buyer, or buyers, made a concerted effort to drive the fifth-biggest U.S. securities firm out of business and, in the process, reap a profit of more than $270 million.
Whoever placed the bet used so-called put options that gave purchasers the right to sell 5.7 million Bear Stearns shares for $30 each and 165,000 shares for $25 apiece just nine days later, data compiled by Bloomberg show. That was less than half the $62.97 closing price in New York Stock Exchange composite trading on March 11. The buyers were confident the stock would crash."
Mary said 5 years ago she'd tell us who placed the put!
Let's not fool ourselves. Insider trading is flagrant. I think back to all the firms, who were found to have their Investment banking divisions pressuring the research departments to write favorable reports for their customers. Then their brokers taking those reports and soliciting their customers. Even without the brokers knowledge of the cozy relationship between IB and research departments, the heads of those departments knew. Now would not each instance have been a separate fraud? I don't think anyone was charged. Poor Martha..
