Guilty Plea in Online-Poker Case
NEW YORK—A U.S. citizen admitted Monday to helping online-poker companies circumvent laws prohibiting the processing of Internet-gambling payments.
Bradley Franzen, who lives in Illinois and Costa Rica, was among 11 people charged last month by U.S. authorities in a crackdown on Internet poker. The founders of the three of the largest online-poker companies doing business in the U.S. also were charged.
Mr. Franzen, who operates a company that matches merchants with electronic-payment processers, said he helped online-poker companies find people to process electronic payments, including those by U.S. gamblers. In October 2006, the U.S. made it a crime for companies to knowingly accept electronic payments in connection with Internet gambling.
"To avoid bank restrictions, they used shell companies and phony websites," Mr. Franzen said.
At a hearing Monday, Mr. Franzen pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud, to accepting funds in connection with unlawful Internet gambling and conspiracy to commit money laundering. He faces as many as 20 years in prison on the money-laundering conspiracy charge.
Mr. Franzen said he understood that "millions of dollars" were processed but didn't know the exact amount. According to a plea agreement with prosecutors, Mr. Franzen agreed to cooperate with the probe.
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan have alleged that the poker companies, using third-party payment processers, disguised billions of dollars from U.S. gamblers as payments to nonexistent online merchants for golf balls, jewelry, flowers and other merchandise.

Montreal trio Land of Talk, spearheaded by vocalist and songwriter Elizabeth Powell, have released their sophomore full-length album, Cloak and Cipher. Joining Powell on the album are Eoin O Laoghaire (bass) and Andrew Barr (drums) and special guests drawn from the Montreal music scene and beyond including Patrick Watson as well as members of Stars, Silver Mount Zion Band, Wintersleep, Besnard Lakes, Arcade Fire and Esmerine.
The follow up to 2008's critically adored debut LP Some Are Lakes, Cloak and Cipher's ten tracks mark an electric step forward for the band musically and sonically, establishing Land of Talk as one of Canada's most exciting new musical voices. Recorded in Montreal's Breakglass Studios in the Fall of 2009 with producer Jace Lasek (Besnard Lakes, Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown), the return to the studio was a homecoming of sorts after nearly two years of life on the road that was punctuated by the release of 2009's Fun and Laughter EP. Following the release of Some Are Lakes, Land of Talk joined Broken Social Scene on a North American tour where in addition to opening the show, Powell joined the collective on stage nightly and left critics taking note, including the New York Times raving in their live review, "[Powell] proved herself a strong guitarist and a calmly arresting lead singer... She made a virtue of directness and brevity, letting small details speak for themselves." While the buzz around Some Are Lakes was steadily growing, these staggering live sets brought attention to Powell's stand-out voice and undeniable presence as a front-woman to watch.
With the release of Cloak and Cipher, it's clear that Powell and company took the power of these live shows and focused them into a more complex, textured and sophisticated musical composition. This record is the document of Powell's past and future, cleaved together. In those teenage years, an analog child, her recordings were strictly to 4-track tape. Cloak and Cipher's songs were roughed out in the digital Garageband software, a first for Powell. It afforded her the space to return to her old process - isolated, quiet, layered construction. Realized in the studio, these songs became vast yet intricate: expansive arrangements anchored by taut instrumentation. The lyrics are borrowed newspaper headlines, veiled confessions, and passages from books, annihilated and morphed into song. Tracks like "Hamburg, Noon" swing tensely between acrobatic vocals and rumbling guitars while "Swift Coin" roars to the fore like an eviscerating siren; exploding into a rollicking and joyous guitar anthem. The halfway point, "The Hate I Won't Commit," featuring a piano solo from Patrick Watson, weaves between abrasive and gentle, expanding through choral backing vocals and distressed, emotive pleas from Powell. "Quarry Hymns" is the sweetest and saddest Land of Talk you will hear, insistently driven by Arcade Fire's Jeremy Gara on drums. The record concludes with the dreamy and ethereal "Better and Closer" gently rocking you asunder.

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Welcome to Store Tour, ROBOT 6's weekly exploration of comics shops, and the people who run them; think of it as the retailer version of Shelf Porn. Each Sunday we feature a different store, and also get to know the person behind the register.
To discover a comic store in your area, visit FindAComicShop.com
This week's store is Dragon's Lair Comics and Fantasy, 2438 W. Anderson Lane, Suite B-1, in Austin, Texas. We spoke with creative director Megan Ruch.
Three comics — Persepolis, Saga and Drama — were among the 10 most frequently challenged books last year in U.S. public schools and libraries, according to the American Library Association. This appears to be the most comics to make the list.
The organization released the annual findings of its Office of Intellectual Freedom as part of National Library Week. In 2014, the OIF received 311 complaints to remove or restrict materials in public libraries or in school curricula, up only slightly from the year before.
Persepolis, Marjane Satrapi's memoir of her life as a child and young adult in Iran during the Islamic revolution, came in at No.2, with complaints frequently citing "gambling, offensive language [and] political viewpoint" as well as its "graphic depictions." Although the ALA doesn't note specific challenges, we reported last year on incidents in Oregon and Illinois.
Cartoonist Tom Beland, best known for True Story, Swear to God, has posted a series of sketches showcasing comic book heroines — and in one case anti-heroines — as they enjoy a little time to themselves.
Medusa multitasks while reading the newspaper and Storm whips up a fluffy cloud elephant, while Sue Storm won't allow a little thing like a multi-pronged attack by villains tear her away from a good book. It's not all Marvel, though: You'll also see Alana and Hazel from Saga, and Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy from DC Comics.
The GLAAD Media Awards are traditionally a fairly mainstream affair, with the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation recognizing outstanding portrayals of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities in works that reach a wide audience. Although in the past, the organization has honored the likes of Fun Home, Luba and Strangers in Paradise, the outstanding comic book category is typically heavy on superhero titles released by Marvel and DC Comics.
However, with the announcement this morning of the nominees for the 26th annual GLAAD Media Awards comes a couple of big surprises: Just one superhero series is singled out, and, for the first time since the comic book category debuted in 2003, there are no titles published by DC or its imprints.
What if I told you that you could get a sculpture of Saga's Lying Cat? No, not "Lying."
Mike Bauerlein recently shared online the details of a 3D modeling commission he undertook of the fan-favorite character from Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples' hit series. Using ZBrush and reference pulled from the comic, Bauerlein captured the details of Lying Cat while staying true to Staples' art.
As the reviews editor for Comic Book Resources, I accumulate a lot of collected editions. For better or worse, trade-waiting has become a part of the comics landscape, but it's easy to tell when a collection rises above the pack. Whether it's through superior craftsmanship, incredible bonus material, attention to the little details or a combination of all three, there are always a few trades that rise to the top, and make for an enjoyable reading experience and a fantastic display piece.
Thus, here are a few of my favorite collected editions of 2014, factoring in the strength of the original material, and what makes the collection worth picking up for those that might already own the single issues — ranging from budget-conscious trades up through the incredibly pricey omnibus editions.
This will not be a post about how Saga is awesome. I've written 30 of those already. No thrilling over Lying Cat here, no desperation for the next issue, none of my hopes to see The Will return to action or for [SPOILER] to [SPOILER] and [SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER].
Nor will I lose my cool over the fact that, right now, my bookshelf contains two excellent and weird and hilarious China Mieville (China Mieville!)-penned trades of Dial H, complete with blink-and-you'll-miss-'em anti-MPAA digs. Or that Neil Gaiman, in the – yikes — almost two decades since I picked up my first Sandman trade, has evolved from Sensational Comic Book Writer Neil Gaiman to MechaGaiman, Devourer of Worlds, Savior of Publishing and Champion of Art. Or that Genevieve Valentine is writing Catwoman!
I won't flip out about The Wicked + The Divine or Chew or either Marvel, Ms. or Captain.
Given the commercial and critical success of Saga, the space opera from Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples, it seems likely the Image Comics series has been eyed by more than a few film and television producers. However, the writer says he would be more interested in a video-game adaptation.
"That's actually something that has come up," he told The Verge. "A Saga video game, particularly if it's sort of about characters other than the main characters in our story, is really exciting to me — even more exciting than a film or TV show. So, uh, never say never."
Crime | Artist Josh C. Lyman reports that thieves broke into his car sometime on Monday or Tuesday and stole about 40 pieces of original art (some of it commissioned), 1,200 prints, plus convention setup materials, art supplies and clothes. "I'm more devastated in the fact my originals are all gone … some of my better non-commissioned work of the last 3 years … along with all of my tools I have earned and acquired during the aforementioned periods. Tshirts and the like I can slowly replace … but it's the matter of having all this potential art for shows gone; along with all the posters I had left," he writes. Lyman contacted police and has notified local comic shops to keep an eye out for the missing work, and he has posted images of the stolen art. [Facebook, via Bleeding Cool]
Censorship | Rachael Jolley takes a long and wide view of the pressures that political cartoonists are subject to, looking at several recent attempts to suppress editorial cartoonists as well as the history of tensions between creators of political cartoons and those they portray; the article also includes comments from Neil Gaiman on the topic of censorship. [The New Statesman]
Publishing | The British independent publisher Great Beast, which has released the work of Dan Berry, Marc Ellerby and Isabel Greenberg, among others, will close on Jan. 7. Founded in 2012 by Ellerby and Adam Cadwell, the publisher was something of a victim of its own success, as Cadwell explains: "As the group got bigger, as the books became more successful and as we widened the range of shops we sold to there became more of a need for the management and promotion to come from one or two people and Marc Ellerby and I (Adam Cadwell) happily took up that role. However, as time went on we found that the time spent working for the benefit of the group was getting in the way of us actually making our own comics, which is why we started the group in the first place… We looked at many ways of monetising the group so we could pay someone to run things whilst still giving the creators the bulk of the profits but we just couldn't find a fair way to make it work." [Great Beast Blog]
Passings | Dr. George Slusser, co-founder of the University of California, Riversides' renowned Eaton Collection of Science Fiction & Fantasy, passed away Tuesday at age 75. Curator emeritus and professor emeritus of comparative literature, Slusser expanded the Eaton holdings from 7,500 items to more than 300,000, making it the largest publicly accessible collection of science fiction and fantasy literature in the world. It encompasses novels, journals, manuscripts, comics and manga, fanzines and anime, and includes first editions of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Action Comics #1 and The Fantastic Four #1. "Over three decades, George Slusser built the Eaton Collection up from a small core of titles into the world-class archive that it is today," Rob Latham, co-director of UC Riverside's Science Fiction and Technoculture Studies program, said in a statement. "The field of science fiction scholarship owes him an incalculable debt." [UC Riverside]
Graphic novels | Although BookScan's September list of the bestselling graphic novels in bookstores is populated largely by old stalwarts — The Walking Dead, Attack on Titan, Saga, Watchmen — Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 1, the only Marvel title on the chart, clung to the Top 20 in its second month of release (although it slipped from No. 4. to No. 20). Bryan Lee O'Malley's Seconds, meanwhile, climbed in its third month to No. 6. One new manga debuted at No. 12: Noragami, about a homeless god who does odd jobs as he tries to build up his reputation; the anime is already out, which probably gave it a boost. [ICv2]
Publishing | A television reporter pays a visit to the Last Gasp offices to talk about the Kickstarter recently launched by the longtime publisher of underground comics (and other quirky books). It's worth a look just to see the owner's amazing collection of oddities. [NBC Bay Area]
Legal | Hirofumi Watanabe has withdrawn the appeal of his conviction last month on charges of sending more than 400 threatening letters to venues in Japana connected with the manga Kuroko's Basketball. The 37-year-old former temporary worker admitted to all charges during his first day in court, but mpoved to have his conviction overturned after he was sentenced to four and a half years in prison. Watanabe, who said he doesn't feel guilty for what he did and won't apologize, acknowledged that he sent the letters out of jealousy of the success of Kuroko's Basketball creator Tadatoshi Fujimaki. [Anime News Network]
Manga | The most promising new market for manga right now? India, where the comics market in general is exploding. Kevin Hamric of Viz Media says manga is already well known there and fans can't get enough, while Lance Fensterman of ReedPOP, the company behind New York Comic Con, talks about the planned collaboration with Comic Con India. The one obstacle: the same one that afflicted the American manga market, Japanese publishers' reluctance to license their properties. [The Japan Times]
Conventions | Attendance at the second annual Salt Lake Comic Con was estimated at between 120,000 and 130,000, putting it on a par with the big shows like Comic-Con International in San Diego and New York Comic Con. Even better, Stan Lee proclaimed it "the greatest comic con in the world" (but he probably says that to all the shows). [The Salt Lake Tribune]
Conventions | The scale of the first Las Cruces [New Mexico] Comic Con was considerably smaller, with expected attendance of 3,000 to 5,000, but organizers were pleased with the event, which featured a Yu-Gi-Oh! tournament, a Comic Strip Burlesque show, and appearances by Jim Steranko, Power Rangers stuntman Jason Ybarra, and the 1966 Batmobile. [Las Cruces Sun-News]
[Editor's note: Each Sunday, Robot 6 contributors discuss the best in comics from the last seven days — from news and announcements to a great comic that came out to something cool creators or fans have done.]
In some ways, this is the best of times and the worst of times for those who are interested in bringing comics to a broader audience. As the hubbub died down over Milo Manara's Spider-Woman cover, another story went viral, about a comic shop where an employee allegedly made a crude joke about a "rape room" and then fired a trainee who complained about it. While debate continues to rage over what exactly happened there (the store owner denies it), Bloomberg did a big story on how the number of women comics readers is growing and becoming an ever more important sector of the industry.
With this in mind, I want to call out three things that happened this week.
The first is Gene Luen Yang's speech at the National Book Festival. First of all, it's impressive that a comics creator is given such a prominent platform at an event that isn't actually focused on comics. What Yang had to say was even more impressive. He spoke about the African-American creator Dwayne McDuffie, whose love of comics first caught fire when he encountered the Black Panther, a black character created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. The Black Panther wasn't perfect, but, Yang said,
All of these flaws were lost on Dwayne McDuffie when he first encountered the Black Panther in 1973, at the age of 11. What struck him was the character's commanding sense of dignity. The Black Panther wasn't anyone's sidekick. He wasn't an angry thug. He wasn't a victim. He was his own hero, his own man. As Dwayne describes it, "In the space of 15 pages, black people moved from invisible to inevitable."

Topic Title: Level 2 Probopass [Overview]
Probopass is one of the best utilizers of the FEAR strategy. It possesses unique traits over other FEAR users such as Aron, such as the ability to retain Sturdy even if Stealth Rock is up, which enables it to pull off its strategy with greater effect. When Probopass gets in safely, it is a terror to stop, although there are certain Pokemon in OU that can still shut it down, provided they get a chance. Steel-types, Leech Seed, multi-hit moves like Bullet Seed, hail, and burn status all threaten to break Sturdy. Quick hazards from the many Custap leads, such as Skarmory, Forretress, and the rarely seen Crustle, are also a pain to Probopass, as enough hazards down will break Study and nullify its strategy. In addition, Probopass requires a large amount of team support to be used effectively, a factor that means it's often overlooked by many batters in favor of something more reliable.
 [SET] name: Pain Split (Level 2) move 1: Pain Split move 2: Protect move 3: Toxic move 4: Magic Coat / Taunt item: Leftovers ability: Sturdy nature: Bold evs: 252 Spe ivs: 0 HP [SET COMMENTS]
This is the only reason Probopass should be used in OU. The set's concept is simple: Sturdy keeps Probopass alive so it can use Pain Split, which heals it and drains the opponent's health. Pain Split should be used sparingly when the opponent is low on health, as they will need to have at least 26 HP left to keep Probopass alive. Protect recovers the damage taken from Stealth Rock or a layer of Spikes, scouts for dangerous attacks, and stacks up sandstorm or poison damage. Toxic hinders those that try to utilize healing moves, and Magic Coat bounces back moves such as Taunt and Spore. Alternatively, Taunt can be used to prevent Probopass from becoming setup bait. Aron is Probopass's main competition, as it works fast and well. Probopass's ability to switch into hazards, and its access to Magic Coat and Taunt are its advantages over Aron. It should also be noted that when using Probopass, one mistake will render him useless, so when in doubt, scout with Protect.
 [ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]
Berry Juice can ease prediction and gives Probopass a free turn to do something potentially useful like setting up Stealth Rock, but the ability to switch into a layer of hazards will be sorely missed. Having sandstorm active is a must, so Tyranitar or Hippowdon are needed partners. Toxic Spikes users, such as Forretress and Tentacruel, help provide residual damage. Furthermore, they can provide Rapid Spin support, which isn't required but definitely recommended, as too many layers of Spikes pushes Probopass over the edge. Probopass can switch into two layers of hazards by using Protect twice in a row, but this strategy only works 50% of the time.
 [Other Options]
Probopass has very few other options as FEAR is his only set that isn't severely outclassed. He could function as a tank, but his atrocious typing renders him weak to the omnipresent Earthquake and Close Combat, and there a myriad of other Pokemon that are better for this role. Probopass can also function as a trapper, but is almost always outclassed by Magnezone, unless you want to use Probopass's access to Magic Coat or Taunt.
 [Checks and Counters]
Probopass can't finish off Steel-types as he has no way of dealing residual damage to them. Grounded Rock- and Ground-types can be dealt with, but only via Toxic Spikes or Toxic. Probopass also fears Pokemon with status moves, multi-hit moves, negative priority moves, Leech Seed, Substitute, and abilities like Mold Breaker. Any of these will render Sturdy worthless, making Probopass as good as gone. Changing the weather negates finishing damage, but Probopass can still whittle away at your Pokemon's HP. Flinches and hail are also very troublesome. Most teams already have a check to Probopass, such as Jirachi, Kyurem-B, Gengar with Substitute, Ferrothorn with Leech Seed, or Breloom with Bullet Seed, so all you'll need to do is keep them alive.
 Hide (Move your mouse to the hide area to reveal the content) Show Hide Hide Hide Overview: Mostly outclassed as a Pokemon except for its FEAR set Unique move pool and Sturdy create a good niche [Set] name: Level 2 FEAR move 1: Pain Split move 2: Protect move 3: Toxic move 4: Magic Coat / Taunt item: Leftovers ability: Sturdy nature: Bold evs: 252 Spe ivs: 0 HP Why this set deserves to be on-site: Can stall out (with sandstorm or toxic/toxic spikes) both offensive and defensive Pokemon Probopass survives an attack with Sturdy, then uses Pain Split to half the opponent's HP until residual damage finishes them Protect is to recover entry hazard damage to maintain Sturdy Toxic is to hit Pokemon using Recover Magic Coat protects Probopass from Taunt and Status Additional Comments: Leftovers is so Probopass can switch into Stealth Rock by protecting the next turn Berry Juice is for a Free Turn to set up Stealth Rock, a one time free switch in if no hazards are present, or cushion a badly predicted Magic Coat Probopass is different from Level 1 Aron because of his ability to switch in to entry hazards and does not need the opponent to have as much HP. However, Aron does his job quicker, allowing for less chance of secondary effects. Earth Power could be used for enemy Level 1 Probopass and Level 1 Aron Berry Juice allows for one misprediction or a free switch in Teammates & Counters: A Sandstream user or Toxic Spikes can help finish of the Opponent A Rapid Spin user helps remove spikes from the field Status, Hail, flinch, and Substitute Counter Checks and Counters: Status Hail Flinch Spikes (One layer without Stealth Rocks is acceptable) Substitute Users Non-Sandstorm weather (especially Hail) Lower Priority damaging moves Probopass can maim but not finish Steel Types, non-grounded Rock/Ground types, and Magic Guard users. Other Options: Maybe Stealth Rock, Block, Taunt, Gravity, or Sandstorm in the fourth slot if using Berry Juice? Earth Power for other Level Ones Overall there really is little change one can do on a FEAR set, because Probopass is helplessly outclassed if taking another role.

Catholic scholars
have taken the dynamite
of the church,
have wrapped it up
in nice phraseology,

and sat on the lid.
It is about time
to blow the lid off...-Peter Maurin
Few today can imagine that Catholic social thought has the pyrotechnic promise that Peter Maurin identified in his "easy essay," "Blowing the Dynamite." However idiosyncratic, the Catholic Workers' coupling of doctrinal orthodoxy and radical politics epitomized a faith in the church as an exemplary form of human community, an imperfect but anticipatory effort, in the words of the Catholic sociologist Paul Hanly Furfey, "to reproduce heaven on earth."
Among contemporary Catholics of all political stripes there seems little desire to recreate this radical ecclesial and political imagination. In short, the lid seems firmly sealed. Can it ever be pried loose again? A new movement of intellectual, ecclesial, and political regeneration calling itself "radical orthodoxy" offers some hope that the dynamite can still be ignited. These flamboyant advocates of change have already made the pages of Time and the Chronicle of Higher Education. That's not surprising given some of their virtuoso intellectual performances.

Brazil Real Advances Most in Two Weeks on Fed Stimulus Outlook
The real gained the most in two weeks as the U.S. dollar weakened amid speculation the Federal Reserve may announce more stimulus measures to boost the world's largest economy.
The currency gained 1.5 percent to 2.0289 per U.S. dollar, the biggest jump since June 5, trimming its decline this year to 8 percent. The yield on the Brazilian interest-rate futures contract due in January 2014 fell two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 8.03 percent.
"The real is just trading in line with other currencies, which is a rarity these days," Kenneth Lam, a Latin America currency and local rates strategist at Citigroup Inc., said by phone from New York. Speculation that Brazil's central bank will revive swap sales to limit losses in the currency faded "now that things are looking brighter, and people are speculating on more quantitative easing," Lam said.
U.S. Federal Reserve policy makers begin a two-day meeting today amid speculation they will take further steps to boost economic growth. Group of 20 leaders convening in Mexico focused their response to Europe's financial crisis on stabilizing banks as the International Monetary Fund raised its lending capacity to shield the rest of the world economy.
Interest-rate futures yields fell as the second preview of the Rio de Janeiro-based Getulio Vargas Foundation's IGP-M index rose at a slower pace. The second preview, which covers producer and consumer prices and construction costs in the 20 days beginning May 21, increased 0.63 percent. The index advanced 0.68 percent in June's first preview and climbed 1 percent in May's second preview.
Greek Bailout
"The IGP-M report offset the positive movement in markets abroad," said Darwin Dib, chief economist at CM Capital Markets Asset Management, in a phone interview from Sao Paulo.
A European Union official said a politically acceptable path for renegotiating Greece's bailout will be sought. The official spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity in Brussels today.
Antonis Samaras, whose New Democracy party came in first in Greece's June 17 election, told reporters yesterday that he will hold a second day of talks today after "constructive" meetings with two party leaders.
The central bank has held currency-swap auctions, which are equivalent to selling dollars in the futures market, since mid-May to support the real. The swaps are a reversal of the bank's dollar purchases, which reached $7.2 billion in April, the most in 13 months.

Insurance premiums could be slashed by up to £15 a year after the government announced driving licence records would be uploaded online.
The searchable database would allow insurance companies, car hire firms and individuals to check speeding endorsements and other offences.
The My Licence project – due to be launched by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) in June - is part of the move to phase out the 'paper counterpart' document by 2015.
• Best car insurance companies
Currently, insurance firms 'price in' the risk of drivers being dishonest about points on their licence or making mistakes.
The new system would allow companies to access information using a driver's licence number. Meanwhile, through the gov.uk website drivers can gain access using a driver's licence number, national insurance number and postcode. The Association of British Insurers estimates honest motorists could save £15 through the digitilisation.
Car hire companies will also have their administration burden cut as they will no longer need to check drivers' details by phone.
Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude said it was part of the government's 'digital agenda' to save £1.2 billion by the end of 2015 and comes shortly after an announcement the paper tax disc would be scrapped.
Mr Maude added: "It is great news that DVLA is about to launch online driving records which can be used by anyone with a driving licence as well as by the insurance industry."
"This will enable insurers, for example, to price much more accurately, because they will not have to take anything on trust."
• Man achieves record 45 driving licence points
AA president Edmund King said 92 per cent of its members supported the move if it cuts down on fraud but he went a step further calling for other motoring databases to be improved too.
Mr King added: "We believe that a more accessible database of mandatory recorded car mileage from MOTs and change of car ownership forms would help to prevent illegal clocking.
"The Citizens Advice Bureau receive 80,000 complaints about used cars each year and a significant proportion relate to concerns about inaccurate car mileage or clocking.
"These databases should be more user-friendly in order to help reduce costs and the threat of fraud for honest motorists."

2016 Olympics- ISAF Half Yearly meeting - a Multihull perspective
by Paul Pascoe on 8 May 2011
A Mixed Multihull crew (BEL) competed in the 2008 Olympic Regatta © Richard Gladwell
The International Sailing Federation is a funny beast, and no more so than when the boats are selected every four years to represent sailing at the Olympic Games.
Classes and National Federations spend years positioning themselves, getting their supporters appointed to Committees, perhaps elected as Chairman where they see it may be useful, all with a view to influencing the outcome in their favour. And when it comes to making these decisions, you have no friends, strange bedfellows frequently arise and knives in the back are not unknown.
As much as the individuals would like to 'put the sport before our national or personal interests', National Federations have so much to win or lose by getting their favoured boat into the Olympic Games that it is impossible for these forces not to come in to play. In many large countries where the national body is funded significantly by the government, the sole definition of success, and therefore indirectly its funding, is the number of Gold Medals at the Olympics. They don't care about World Championships or Olympic Silver medals - just Olympic Gold medals.
In Brazil their number one sports stars from the Olympic Games across all sports are Torben Grael and Robert Scheidt.
With the 2016 Olympics being sailed in Brazil, the event was guaranteed to generate huge public interest in the selection between the two leading up to the Games and then at the Games itself. So in you own country, think of your highest profile Olympian across all sports, think of a home Olympic Games, only to have the International Federation pull your number one athlete's event from the lineup - front page news in Brazil and an international scandal.
So with this level of importance we all headed for St Petersburg to decide the disciplines, and in some cases the equipment (read 'boats' in non-Olympic terms). The Olympic Commission had presented their report, made a little tweak between November and May and all submissions were locked in by ISAF some weeks ago. The great news for multihull sailors was that every submission had at least one multihull on the slate, so barring any last minute political maneuvering, we were assured of being back for 2016 in one form or another.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing and in reality the Multihull was probably always going to get back, but stranger things have happened in the past, and we couldn't really take anything for granted. We had to turn up to all the meetings, put our case to various groups and clearly state why we should have a multihull in the Olympics. It wasn't until a vote in November where the multihull gained overwhelming support around the table that I was personally confident that we would get back in, and after the submissions were in, almost certain that we would get back in. However, last minute changes to submissions and voting procedures have happened in the past, so it wasn't until the announcement by the President that submission number 10 had achieved a majority vote could we relax for 2016.
In particular, the Star lobby has a long history of using their considerable influence, and this was again in evidence when they managed to have the Executive support a proposal that was more outlandish than anything anyone had thought possible. A submission that got zero votes at the Events Committee to make only one change to the lineup to remove the 49er of all things, and replace it with the multihull was voted by the Executive as their preferred solution. As much as I am keen to have a multihull back into the event, it would have been tragic to do so at the expense of the 49er. Suffice to say that it was highly unlikely that the support of this submission was unanimous with the Executive. Other websites have posted names of those on the Executive they believe were in support of the Puerto Rican submission, but it was very obvious which 'camps' would have voted in support. As well as the obvious Star lobby, the 470 Class must see that if the Olympics has two skiffs, there are then under threat for the 2020 Olympics.
So the sequence of events at the meeting in St Petersburg went as follows:
Thursday - Events Committee meeting
Committee members debated the various submissions and all but one came out in support of keeping the keelboat discipline in one form or other. The Women's Match Racing was mentioned repeatedly in that countries had just purchased new Elliotts, and some were still on order to be delivered to countries starting their programmes for the 2016 Olympics. Dumping the discipline before they had even sailed in one Olympics was certainly going to be tough.
A working party had recommended a voting procedure for the meeting and this was the subject of a submission. Given that everyone knew that the multihull was discarded only after a late minute change to the voting procedure three years ago, the Committee were careful to have this thoroughly researched and any last minute changes would be viewed with considerable suspicion.
The Committee agreed on the voting procedure that was as follows:
• Submissions had been checked prior to the meeting and some were ruled invalid, e.g. Some had 'mixed single hander' and yet 'mixed' is defined as one man one woman.
• Each submission in turn would be identified, and called for a proposer and a seconder. This was to weed out submissions that had no chance of getting through. Each Committee Member could propose or second multiple submissions, and about a third of submissions were rejected at this stage.
• Voting then started. Each member cast one vote for their preferred submission. Any submission not receiving any votes in the first round was eliminated as was the lowest scoring submission. In the event of more than one submission receiving the same lowest vote, a runoff vote was taken and the lowest was eliminated.
• This process was repeated until one submission had more than 50% of the vote.
In the end, the proposal put forward was for the removal of the two keelboats, gaining 60% of the vote, with two other proposals, including the 5/5 solution with two multihulls received 20% of the vote. This was really a vote to retain the keelboats rather than a vote for two multihulls, but it would have been excellent for multihulls.
For anyone who felt that the Olympics should represent all disciplines of our sport, this was always put forward as the 'logical' solution. However the practicalities of it were that it would pit the Laser against the Finn in a runoff in November next year, as well as the 470 Men vs 49er, and 470 Women vs Women's skiff. This was just too big a leap for many people to take, and especially the 470 vs skiff would probably result in the skiff losing out in both cases. Losing the 49er would not have been good for the sport.
So at the end of Day 1, all looked good and in line with expectations. With this out of the way, everyone headed off to the regular Finn party at a local hotel. Part way through the evening a rumour went around that at the Executive meeting, they had voted to support a Puerto Rican submission to make only one change to the current lineup - to remove the 49er and replace it with a multihull. Groups of people then started talking and looking very serious, while others including myself thought 'what a load of rubbish, it's just a rumour'.
Friday - Day 1 of Council Meeting
'Shock' was the word most in vogue the next morning on picking up the submissions to be considered for the day. Sure enough the Executive had recommended that the Council support for the Puerto Rican submission to drop the 49er, replace it with a multihull and just keep everything else the same. The skiff mafia had turned up to the meeting expecting to just support the women's skiff not expecting that they would have to be there defending the 49er - a boat that is perceived to be relatively inexpensive to campaign, sailed by fit, athletic sailors with a huge amount of media appeal. This was going to be the same mistake as removing the multihull - removing the most media friendly boat from the lineup, despite everyone saying we need to improve our media exposure.
Obviously the Executive had a couple of people who had pushed it through and some other members of the Executive were not at all happy about the decision, as someone 'talked' to the media and the list of those on the Executive supporting the proposal was quickly posted on various websites.
And it wasn't just the various lobby groups that were upset. The Executive had setup their high powered Olympic Commission to research and make recommendations on overall strategy for the Olympics, World Cup and World Championships. They had taken the report to the IOC and discussed it at length, getting support for it's findings from the highest level. To then throw this out the door was a huge slap in the face to people like Phil Jones, Dick Batt, Chris Atkins and Co who had put so much work into the report. It will be a brave Executive member to ask them to take on any new role in the future.
However, once the Council meeting started, some sense of order returned. The Executive had also devised a voting scheme in the event that they had to cull the 36 submissions down to one. They had come up with a proposal that was straight out of the Wimbledon Open with a knockout voting system, with byes for any unmatched submissions. This was perceived by many to be a system that could easily be manipulated to favour a preferred submission, and viewed with considerable suspicion. Some very pointed comments were made between members of the Executive and members of the Council and the Council voted down the Executive submission soundly, sending a very clear message - the Council was not going to blindly follow the recommendations of the Executive.
Saturday - Day 2 of Council Meeting
With the Council voting the previous day to adopt the voting procedure used by the Events Committee, the first order of business was to request a proposer and seconder for each submission. This immediately reduced the number of submissions to seven. The proposer of each submission was then given the opportunity to speak the merits of their proposal, followed by an open forum where each member was allowed to speak once.
Many of the comments were recurring:
• We should not remove the 'discipline' entirely as we are just repeating the mistake of removing the only multihull
• The Women's keelboat has not even been run yet and we are already damning them
• We need to protect the investment in current equipment (a 470 argument)
• Media appeal is about how we present our sport, not about the boat (another argument for 470 over skiffs)
• Moving the sport forward (introduction of skiffs)
To my mind, the best line came from Phil Jones rebutting a previous speaker's comment that 'Sailing is a sport for life', in support of keelboats that allow older sailors to continue to sail in the Olympics. Phil's comment was 'Sailing is a sport for life, but the Olympics is not an event for life' which pretty much sums up the reason for dropping the keelboats. The Olympics is about youth and athleticism.
So after a couple of hours of recurring themes, and I suspect with no-one changing their vote at all, a first round vote was called. Ballot papers handed out, votes were counted and to the surprise of everyone, a winner was declared after the first ballot. The Chairman read out the votes as follows and it all ended with a whimper.
This was a ringing endorsement of the work of the Olympic Commission and the Events Committee sending a strong message to everyone. The disconnect between the Executive and the Council has the potential to go far beyond a simple mismatch on submissions. The term most heard in discussions was about the amount of 'lost credibility' on the part of the Executive. To come out supporting a submission that was so far removed from the expectations of the vast majority of members was just astounding.
So what next?
The immediate task is for the Equipment Committee to come out with a spec for a multihull and a plan for evaluating potential boats. This will include a trial of some type, probably in Europe and most likely in conjunction with the evaluation for the Womens skiff. We need to make sure we get the right boat in the Olympics, and by 'right' this means a boat that will not leave us in the same position as we are now, where a fantastic boat was voted out of the Olympics because not enough countries were willing, for whatever reason, to campaign at the Olympics.
We need to look at two things:
1. What were the characteristics of the 2008 Tornado that meant that it wasn't embraced around the world, and we need to be brutally honest in this assessment
2. What are the characteristics of the Laser and the 470 that means that they are embraced around the world
We also need to keep in mind the ISAF Youth Worlds and make sure there is a clear stepping stone from the Youth to Olympic boat.
And even now we have to start working on getting a mens and womens boat in for 2020. The view of several of the multihullers in St Petersburg is that what will happen over the next couple of years is that initially, we will have a majority of men skippers and women crews, but gradually the women will become the drivers on the boat. Then in four years time, we will have a bunch of male skippers running around saying 'we want our own event'.
To make this a reality we need as many countries sailing a multihull as possible in all of the World Cup events from 2013 onwards, as this more than anything else provides ISAF with it's demographics. This is going to be difficult as we will not be choosing a boat until November 2012 and it will immediately cause a flood of orders for one lucky manufacturer but a backlog for potential campaigners. However, we need to work out a way to make it happen.
Dick Batt was to discuss the plan for evaluations with the Executive on Sunday, including people to include in the writing of the spec, hopefully this group will put out a spec within the next couple of weeks with an evaluation probably soon after the Olympic Games in 2012.
Between now and the decision on the new cat, there is a period where potential multihull campaigners will be in limbo, wanting to get started but having to hold off until the boat is decided. And the immediate period after the new boat is announced there will be a backlog of orders.
My advice to any young sailor thinking of doing an Olympic campaign would be to get yourself a team, preferably with a woman helm even if they have no cat experience, with an all up weight around 150kg, but with the flexibility to go up or down 10kg. Then go an buy the cheapest F18 you can find and campaign it for the next two years with a view to putting in an order to buying a new Olympic cat the day the boat is announced in November 2012 and then expect a delivery time of at least six months.
Any Olympic cat is most likely to be the same configuration as an F18, but it is no use trying to second guess which boat will become the Olympic boat as it may not have even been designed yet. The F18 has the best class racing and with many ex-Olympic sailors in the fleet has an excellent standard at the top end.
Youth Boat
The selection of the Olympic boat will also have an impact on the Youth boat. There should be a clear pathway, and preferably just an incremental step from Youth to Olympic boats. The 420 to 470, Laser Radial to Full rig are clear examples where a Youth Gold Medallist can make the step up and be competitive in the next Olympic cycle.
We're back, not quite the way we would like it, but back is back. Having had to sit out one Olympic cycle causing such huge disruption, ending careers and leaving people with boats that they can't sell, we have to make sure that for the 2016 Olympics we put in a boat that every little country in the world wants to have a crack at, making it impossible for ISAF Council members to even consider dropping us for future Olympic Games.
The objective is to be as successful as the Laser or the 470 in attracting countries to have a go at the Olympics. Multihulls are popular in areas where other forms of sailing are not such as Africa and Oceania, and we should be working at getting countries like Oman, Tanzania, UAE, Fiji, Papua New Guinea campaigning for 2016. The big countries will look after themselves and will campaign if the boat were two bathtubs strapped together, but we need to make sure that whatever we choose for 2016 is accessible, affordable and achievable for these other countries to campaign and have a shot at qualifying.
And finally, thanks to the multihullers who have put in their support over the years.
At this meeting - Roland Gaebler, Carolijn Brouwer, Darren Bundock and the person who attracted the most attention, Bundy Jnr, 9 weeks old and already has a wetsuit and trapeze harness.
It always sounds wonderfully exotic flying off the places like St Petersburg, but like most of us going to regattas you get to see the airport, the road to the venue, a couple of different restaurants and in the case of an ISAF meeting, the inside of a meeting room.
And a personal thank you for financial support from Nick Dewhurst, Will Sunnocks, Brian Phipps, Don Findlay and Simon Morgan.

My zsh is doing something odd, it is running an executable that is not the first executable on my path. I have a wrapper script for ssh but the wrapper is not being invoked while the real ssh binary is being invoked instead.
Some diagnostics:
$ echo $SHELL
$ echo $PATH
$ which ssh
$ builtin which -a ssh
$ alias
l.='ls -d .* --color=tty'
ll='ls -lh'
ls='ls --color=auto'
which='alias | /usr/bin/which --tty-only --read-alias --show-dot --show-tilde'
zcp='noglob zmv -W -C'
zln='noglob zmv -W -L'
zmv='noglob zmv -W -M'
I tried running 'ssh' in bash and my wrapper script was invoked, so it seems like it's a problem with zsh.
Please let me now if any other diagnostic information is needed.
I would really like to know why is it that the $PATH variable is being ignored when I try to invoke ssh.
Update 1
Added the output from 'builtin which -a ssh'

Working on a set of illustrations, featuring the classic Batman logo(s) -- perhaps later I'll release some of them as large wallpapers. The work is for pure fun, of course... :)
This is the first one. The shape of the logo is very close to the 1989 movie. In the movie (and in the original movie posters) they mostly used black and yellow; however, I imagine this particular Batman emblem to be glowing subtly from the back with blueish light, and maybe placed on the wall of his dark mansion -- maybe right next to the doorbell? :)
Any ideas for improving are welcome!

About Us
It is widely accepted that the cheesesteak sandwich was born in South Philadelphia sometime during the 1930's at Pat's Steaks. Some sources say that the sandwich was originally thin sliced rib-eye marinated in pizza sauce, until Pat's put cheese on it. A real cheesesteak consists of steak, real American or Provolone Cheese. It's simple and tasty. 75 years later, Benny's Cheesesteaks was born. Based out of Dublin, Ohio, Benny's brings authentic cheesesteaks. We try to stay true to the history using lean thin sliced steak, fresh grilled onions and American Cheese. We cook it to order and serve it on Italian bread from Amoroso's Baking Company. The bread is what makes our cheesesteaks famous! You simply cannot make an authentic cheesesteak sandwich without an authentic Philly roll, according to Philadelphians. The roll must be long and thin, not fluffy or soft or too hard. You can add green peppers, mushrooms, sweet peppers, hot peppers or even olives. We'll make it any way you like it. We're sure that once you've tried one, you'll be back for more!

Patient Comments: Deep Vein Thrombosis - Diagnosis
How was your deep vein thrombosis diagnosed?
Comment from: Gamblin Queen, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: March 30
All of my vital signs were 100% normal. Was told that the clot developed on both sides of my vena cava filter and was six inches from entering the artery to my heart. I was also told I was alive because the clot travelled down my leg instead of up my leg. In other words the clot started at the filter and travelled down. Thanking GOD for wonderful miracles. I am on 5mg Coumadin and I take 10mg Coumadin two days a week. I also take one aspirin with the Coumadin and the blood work still looks like I am not taking any of the medication.
Comment from: Englishman, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: February 08
I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis and prescribed an unloaded brace to ameliorate pain in the knee. I wore this brace every other day or so. One day I developed this huge pain in my calf that was wearing the brace. I could not sleep for two nights and the calf swelled up. I have now been diagnosed with DVT. I have since discovered that there are known risks for blood clots while wearing a brace which I was not made aware of. I certainly would not have had it on so tight, would have removed the brace whenever I was sitting down, and perhaps would not have worn one at all. BEWARE people!
Comment from: 45-54 Male (Patient) Published: October 17
Had ankle surgery, everything went well. Cast was little to tight on my calf. After about 10 days started having pain in the calf, continued to get worse. Ended up going to emergency room. They were skeptical but ended up cutting the cast and doing an ultrasound, lo and behold had one in my calf. Ended up spending the night and the next day in the hospital while they pumped me through of blood thinners. Then a week of bed rest at home with 2 injections a day in the stomach plus oral Coumadin. All gone now but what an ordeal.
Comment from: J, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: September 08
I am a 55 year old male. I have been diagonosed with deep vein thrombosis twice. The first time I was in a long car ride from NY to NC. I had pain and swelling in my leg. I went to the doctor, got a sonagram and was given IV heparin. Another time a year later I had a little chest pain, not much but they discovered a blood clot near the lung. Again IV Heparin, then Lovenox shots for 2 weeks at home and Warfarin was prescribed. This time I have been tasking Warfarin for 4 years and I noticed my leg was swollen. This time they are considering a filter.
Comment from: agitatum, 75 or over Female (Patient) Published: January 31
I had a nasty ankle accident 5 years ago and my feet have never been the same since. I get a lot of pain in both feet and legs. My feet and legs are both very discolored, a brown-red, sometimes almost black, and it can be painful when walking. I have just been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease stage III what ever that means? The doctors were questioning DVT.
Comment from: chyl, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: June 06
I was diagnosed with DVT 3 days ago. I worked as a staff nurse-midwife in our hospital my unit was the busiest area in all department. I was always experiencing leg cramps specially when I am so tired. I got swelling on my calf for 2 weeks and pain also. I was just thinking it was just a simple lack of electrolytes so i took my serum electrolytes all are normal. So i went to ER they gave me pain reliever and refer me to orthopedic department. When i was in ortho the doctor examined me i put the creep bandage to ease the pain, the doctor removed it and advised me to go to vascular specialist. That day i didn't go immediately cause I came from night duty then my allergy attack also so i have 1 shot of hydrocortisone in ER i was so drowsy that day. So i came back next day to vascular, immediately suspect DVT, doppler was done and it was found out it my popliteal artery right leg. So my doctor advised for admission. I was admitted for 4 days with a shot of clexane 0.60 twice daily and on loading dose of warfarin 10 mg then 5 mg next day then daily my INR test. Upon admission my INR was 1.06 only my blood was so viscous. Thank you God it was found out so early.Now i am starting my treatment on warfarin 3mg daily with diet control and restriction to the food that can affect the warfarin. I was thinking that I am so healthy cause only muscle pain..but don't ignore any pain that we can feel in our body because it means something wrong inside our system...thank you so much..

Agricultural and construction equipment powerhouse -- and Fiat Industrial subsidiary -- CNH Global (NYSE: CNH ) announced Monday that its board of directors has approved the "best and final offer" put to it by its parent company back in November.
Accordingly, assuming its shareholders approve and the regulators are feeling magnanimous, CNH will soon merge with a Fiat subsidiary temporarily named NewCo. Current CNH shareholders other than Fiat (which already owns 88% of the shares) will be paid 3.828 common shares of NewCo for each share of CNH which they now own.
CNH's shareholders are expected to vote on and approve the merger at the company's annual general meeting of shareholders on April 5. At this same meeting, shareholders are expected to vote on a resolution to not pay a regular dividend in 2013.
CNH shares closed Monday trading down 3.7% at $43.04.
