Great item for my woodland themed nursery. Soft toys are really good quality, look better in real life than pictures. I thought the arm was white, but is off white, so slightly cream. Shame as cot is white and thought it would match but still pleased.
So lovely. Doesnt need batteries. Perfect for my sons enchanted theme nursery. Very happy with this product. Fantastic price as well.
love it,highly recermended
This looks beautiful and my son loves it. the only issue is it a bit loud but still lovely
The mobile was delivered quickly and well packaged. It is cute and fits in nicely with the woodland theme of my daughter's nursery. I was able to assemble the mobile easily and attach it quickly and easily to the cot. My daughter loves watching the owl and the toadstools rotate to the music and it's great that it doesn't need any batteries. The only thing I would suggest to improve the mobile is to include a fabric cover for the plastic arm that attaches to the cot. It looks fine as it is just white but it would look more attractive with a nice matching fabric to cover up the plastic. All round it's a lovely mobile and I am pleased with my purchase.

Shirtless NC State Wolfpack Jock Twerks In Locker Room
Baseball is officially our new favorite sport. Earlier today it was Brad Ausmus made us want to get to first base, and now NC State Wolfpack's John Mangum is inspiring us to sing "Take Me Out To The Ballpark."
The hunky collegiate star took over teammate Brett Austin's Vine to give us an master's course in locker-room twerking.
You're welcome.
who cares about the song whats the whole video
He lives 20 mins from me. Love him
Twerkkk on my FACE WITH THAT DOPE ASS!!
Madd city Kendrick Lamar
WOW now thats an AZZ!
anyone know the song?
My goodness the LANGUAGE some of you people use.
God what a nice ass.
Yes, people are disgusting. People like you who make it a point to get on here and be an ignorant fuck tard. What are you trying to prove? Go back to your hole, troll, and call me when you're happy with your life and stop wasting your time worrying about others.
What we know about this man/instant icon:
1. His name is John Mangum.
2. He is a sophomore in college.
3. He plays baseball, and he's actually a catcher *LOL*, for NC State.
4. He is REALLY FUCKING HOT.
5. HE CAN TWERK. Like, really twerk.
I WIsh you would twerk on my hard on, maybe break my dick with that muscly ass
Mommy like....unf
damn love me some thick whiteboys :)
Oh so "yummy" and delicious wouldnt it be great to have a penis in someone elses feces container! Disgusting, people are disgusting.
why are you even here?
I bet you give head to truckers.
Oh shut up "Notgay", I bet you're sterile
hes a fag
Love how your username is 'not gay' because you feel the need to point that out to everyone. Who are you trying to convince, you utter fucking cunt. Bet you'd love a big fat one in you.
So anal isn't okay, but sticking your penis into someone's urine container isn't?
Actually, women don't pee out of their vagina - it's strictly a birth canal. Women have 2 holes actually - one for peeing and for birthing.
Soooooo...every vagina u stuck ur penis into was free from urine residue??? I doubt it seriously. Most women except after showering/cleansing has a little odor. Usually related to a little off balanced ph and human waste residue. Next time u are licking all around down there just know ur more than likely getting a few urine/feces spores and bacteria in ur mouth!!!
Women pee out of their elbows. If you look very closely you can see the nozzle.
container is*
That"s how Brazilian boys dance Funk down here........ lol.... lol... delicious thou....
And, he's supposed to be straight? Hmm....
Does his sexual preference matter? No one is "supposed to be" anything. Who gives a flyin'...
yes of course, he is dancing, not fucking a guy. You are jalous, I wanna fuck his ass
Damn... fucking yum
Wow, can't stop watching that gorgeous arse. Wish he was in my locker room.
This is delicious. I've been watching this on a loop since yesterday...
I cant get it to play. There is a video right? :(
I just got fired from my job for watching it for the last hour and not actually working... they'll have to pry me away from the desk...
Yummy ! i can watch this all day and night
Where do I buy one of these for use at home? Shut up and take all my money!
damn I would damage the hell out that ass
Sure, he's hot, but there are plenty of hot bodies to look at on the internet. I can't stop watching because his happiness is infectious.
looking good i love jocks::
hahaah Adoro! =D Ele é como sempre, lindo e animado!
he is cute, hot and funny, AND he plays baseball. Nice body !
Thanks God he doesn't have diarrhea...
Wow :)

(LAKEFIELD) Lakefield Pizza Hut employees are trying to figure out how they're going to move on without Dylan Gammon.
Mr. Gammon, 20, died in hospital on Saturday (Nov. 24) following a single motor vehicle crash on County Road 32 on Saturday (Nov. 24).
Peterborough County OPP say a vehicle was traveling south on County Road 32, between Hickey Road and the Centre Road, at about 9 p.m. Saturday when it left the road, striking a tree before crashing into the Otonabee River.
Pizza Hut manager Janet Petigrew, who went to school with Mr. Gammon at St. Peter's Secondary School in Grade 9 and 10, says her staff is deeply saddened by his death.
"He was always smiling," she says.
"He was friends with everyone and Lakefield is really devastated by this right now."
She says Mr. Gammon started working at Pizza Hut two-and-half years ago. Most recently, he was working the morning shift in the kitchen, preparing everything for the day ahead.
"He was a really hard worker," she explains.
Ms Petigrew says Mr. Gammon's girlfriend Hailey Judges and his mother were the most important people to him in the world.
"He loved his girlfriend and mom so much," she says.
Mr. Gammon had just started playing hockey again and owned a black Mazda with a really good sound system, according to Ms. Petigrew.
"You could hear him coming from blocks away," she says with a laugh.

Carboneum suphuratum
Requests: If you need specific information on this remedy - e.g. a proving or a case info on toxicology or whatsoever, please post a message in the Request area www.homeovision.org/forum/ so that all users may contribute.
carboneum sulfuratum
The English name carbon comes from the Latin carbo for coal and charcoal,[56] and from hence also comes the French charbon, meaning charcoal. In German, Dutch and Danish, the names for carbon are Kohlenstoff, koolstof and kulstof respectively, all literally meaning coal-substance.
Source: Wikipedia
Traditional name
English: Carbon disulphide, Alcohol Sulphuris, Alcohol Lampadii.
Used parts
mother tincture Q
Minerals; Organic Compounds; Acyclic Carbon Compounds
Original proving
Proved by Permerl and Noch; and intorduced by Buchner; Allen: encyclop. Mat.Med., Vol. II,617,X,425,653; Hearing: Guiding Symptoms, Vol.III, 397.
Proved by H. H. Crippen in 1891.
Description of the substance
A clear, colourless or yellowish, mobile highly refractive and very inflammable liquid. Poisonous. Imiscible with water, miscible with alcohol or ether; odourfoul prepared by heating charcoal with varpourised sulphur.
Extremely flammable [flashpoint -30°C], colourless, toxic fluid with a characteristic ethereal odour [fetid when impure]. It is a parasiticide, but is seldom used other than as an industrial solvent, in rubber works, in the extraction of fats from seeds and in the manufacture of man-made fibres. It is prepared by heating charcoal with vaporised sulphur. Burns with a blue flame.
The highly refractive liquid is slowly anatomised in air, which gives it a very unpleasant odour when it gets old. When it is burned, there is a blue flame, and part of the sulphur is discarded unburned. The liquid is not soluble in water.
It is a strongly endothermic compound. Therefore on the burning of carbon disulphide a lot of heat is released.
In nature, very small amounts of carbon disulfide are found in gases from volcanic eruptions and in marshy areas.
Carbon disulphide is a solvent for phosphorus, sulphur, selenium, bromine, iodine, fats, resins, and rubbers.
Chemical properties:
Carbon disulfide evaporates at room temperature, and the gas is more than twice as heavy as air. Carbon disulfide easily forms explosive mixtures with air and catches fire very easily; it is dangerous when exposed to heat, flame, sparks, or friction. Vapors can be ignited by contact with an ordinary light bulb. It is incompatible or reactive with strong oxidizers; chemically active metals such as sodium, potassium and zinc; azides; rust; halogens; and amines. When exposed to heat or flame, carbon disulfide reacts violently with chlorine, azides, ethylamine diamine, ethylene imine, fluorine, nitric oxide, and zinc. When heated to decomposition, it emits highly toxic fumes of sulfur oxide; it can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. It is miscible with anhydrous methanol, ethanol, ether, benzene, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and oils.
Currently there are three manufacturing processes used to produce carbon disulphide. Of the three
processes, the Charcoal-Sulphur Process, Electrothermal Process, and the Methane Process, the methane-Sulphur Process is employed the most. Other processes of production, using different pyrites or hydrocarbons have been proposed, but are not currently used (Encyclopaedia of Chemical Technology). Through these processes, each year, more then one million tonnes of carbon disulphide is produced.
Charcoal-Sulphur Process
The basic process for the Charcoal-Sulphur process has changed little since it was first developed over a decade and a half ago. The process takes place in retort stands were molten sulphur is vaporized and superheated. This vaporized sulphur is then reacted with charcoal at 850-900°C in the retort stand at slightly above atmospheric pressure. A multitude of gases are created from this reaction, including carbon disulphide, hydrogen sulphide, carbonyl sulphide, and inert, where the crude product of carbon disulphide is separated using a train of condensers, scrubbers, and oil absorbers. The product is then further treated in distillation columns to increase its purity (Encyclopaedia of Industrial Chemistry).
Electrothermal Process
The Electrothermal process is an adaptation of the Charcoal-Sulphur Process. In the Charcoal-Sulphur process, heat for the process is transferred through the retort stand walls, causing high heat loss to the atmosphere. In order to make the process more efficient, the process is heated within the retort stand through the passing of electric current between graphite and steel electrodes underneath the charcoal bed. The sulphur is added in the same way as in the Charcoal-Sulphur process, and the carbon disulphide is extracted the same way (Encyclopaedia of Chemical Technology).
Methane-Sulphur Process
The current accepted practice, started about the 1950?s, for the synthesis of carbon disulphide is through the catalyst-aided reaction of sulphur and natural gas (methane) (The New Encyclopaedia Britannica). The process takes place at 500 - 700°C and uses either silicon dioxide gel or aluminum oxide as a catalyst. The catalyst is used to speed up the reaction of methane and sulphur, and isn't itself changed in the reaction. The reaction results in the production of carbon disulphide as well as the by-product dihydrogen sulphide.
Since sulphur is usually added in excess of the stoichiometric amounts needed, the product gases have to be cooled to 120 °C to condense the excess sulphur. Carbon disulphide is then separated from the gas stream by condensation and absorption in a solvent (mineral oil). The carbon disulphide is then stripped from the solvent, purified in a distillation system, and then caustic washed to remove traces of dihydrogen sulphide (Encyclopaedia of Chemical Technology).
Health Hazards
For workers in the carbon disulphide industry, many health problems exist due to the ingestion, skin contact or inhalation of carbon disulphide. When ingested in small amounts, normally through air borne gaseous vapour, workers can experience vomiting, irregular heartbeat, or even enter a comatose state. If ingestion occurs over a long period of time, liver, kidney, or nerve damage can result.
Through inhalation, again through airborne vapour, the main affects include drowsiness, chest pains, and irritation. If inhalation of carbon disulphide continues for a long period of time, effects on the brain can occur leading to paralysis. Through skin contact, and eye contact, the same symptoms can occur as in inhalation. Blurred vision and irritation can occur if exposed to for a long period of time. Due to the wide health affects of carbon disulphide, as well as multiple types of exposure to the chemical, it is hard to find a safe way of dealing with the chemical in the industrial sector.
(Materials Safety Data Sheets)
Environmental Impacts
- Carbon disulphide exists in small, non-persistent amounts in the environment.
- Although carbon disulphide can be very toxic to humans, it is only moderately toxic to aquatic life.
- Carbon disulphide does not leach through soil or sediment.
- Accumulates very little in living organisms.
- Highly volatile from water.
Although it can have great toxic effects when present in large amounts, it isn't found in the environment typically in amounts large enough to be detrimental.

Even Charles McCann, the owner and builder of the home that encompasses the Walnut Street Inn, struggled to decide what was appropriate. In his unpublished biography (we have a copy here at the Inn if you want to read it) he said while building the home he chose not to add electricity because he thought it was a fad and was not going to become widespread. Within two years he realized he had made a serious error and had to wire the house well after construction.
And the dilemma continues.
Recycling and energy conservation are some of our issues today. When I think about it, my Ozark family, and I would imagine many of your families as well, were recyclers from an early age.
Shortly after I was born my father starting building our family home himself. That home is still in construction today, some 57 years later. One of my jobs as a pre-teen and early teen was to be the official family "nail puller." Dad would recover old wood from houses being torn down around the town to be repurposed into wood for the continuing construction of our house. All winter (it seemed to me) he would pile up the old boards on the north side of our house, awaiting the appointed hour of my summer vacation. I would be "hired" to remove said nails from each board creating a functional "new" piece of lumber. My memory tends to be embellished with time, but one summer I distinctly remember dad salvaging a bunch of oak tongue and groove flooring, where the nails were put in at a right angle above the "tongue." Not only did it seem impossible for me to get out the nail without totally destroying the "tongue," this extremely hard, antique wood gave up nails like a snake leaves footprints. Each nail-less board came at great cost to my young psyche. Every day after listening to my whines about my meager output, my dad would demonstrate how to easily remove the nails from the boards. I was sure each of his boards must have been rigged to give up their nails so easily. I imagined him sneaking in at night, drilling holes in his example board, then slipping old nails into the drilled holes. Molehills became mountains, and it wasn't long until I had weaseled my way out of this horrible task and found my way to the Tally Ho Motel swimming pool. Thanks Dad.
But I digress... One of the ongoing conversations among the Walnut Street Inn staff is how to be good stewards to our environment while running our small business in the most efficient and appealing way. In your home you can choose to sacrifice ascetics for stewardship. If you wish to add recycle bins for paper, plastic, glass, aluminum, tin, compost, etc. in your living room, you may do it. You can put them wherever you want. If you choose to efficiently hold laundry until all loads are full and energy and water usage is at a minimum you can do that as well.
We, on the other hand, have a dilemma; how do we maintain the atmosphere that attracts guests to the inn while doing the right thing for the environment? We are also under the gun of a 2:00pm check-in time. Everything has to be ready at that all important "witching" hour.
We have compromised by adding small, labeled, recycle trash cans to every room. We also put a card in every room that says "We can all do our part.." that goes on to describe our recycling efforts and offers guests staying more than one night the opportunity to request we don't change their sheets and towels every day (to cut down on detergent, water and energy usage.)
Guest response has been overwhelmingly positive. In fact, it is not unusual for a guest to be seen wandering around our parlors or gardens with an empty plastic water bottle in search of our recycle containers.
So for these little changes we breathe a collective sigh of relief and move on. We have not destroyed the ambiance of the Walnut Street Inn.
What's next? Hmmmm...well, if I could get each guest to pull 20 weeds out of my yard before leaving...

Badrinath and Anirudha rescue Super Kings
A partnership of 73 between Srikkanth Anirudha and Subramaniam Badrinath helped the Chennai Super Kings recover after losing three early wickets against the Central Stags at Kingsmead in Durban.
The pair, who came together in the 8th over built a vital partnership which helped the defending Indian Premier League champions recover from 40-3 after winning the toss and deciding to bat.
The Stags, who started the game by taking two early wickets will be disappointed with the way they let Anirudha (42) and Badrinath (52) turn the game around allowing the Super Kings to reach 151-4.
The pair's partnership was ended in the 16th over but South African Albie Morkel completed the recovery by building a 38 run partnership with Badrinath to put the Super Kings in control.
Earlier on the Stags bowlers utilised the pace and bounce in the wicket to trouble the Super Kings experienced batting line up with a number of short balls; 19 year old Adam Milne was the pick of the bowlers impressing with the new ball.
The innings started off badly for the Super Kings as they suffered a double blow early on losing Matthew Hayden (0) and Suresh Raina (4) inside the first two overs.
The pressure will now be on Hayden after another failure with the bat, the former Australian test player hasnt played since the IPL in May and with David Hussey missing out; his place in the line up could be in jeopardy.
With Hayden and Raina departing early on the Super Kings played cautiously with Murali Vijay and Badrinath taking 6 overs to build their 3rd wicket partnership of 35 before Vijay was dismissed by Doug Bracewell.
Despite the disappointing start the Super Kings will now feel confident of opening their Twenty20 Champions League campaign with a victory thanks to Badrinath and Anirudha whose vital partnership will now give their bowlers a target which should be easily defendable.

A re-imagined super-thin card-case style wallet crafted for the design conscious minimalist.
Thanks for checking out the Minimalist™ wallet by CAPSULE™. Our Kickstarter campaign has ended, but you can go to our website (www.capsulewallets.com) to connect with us and get more info. You can also find us on Facebook for additional updates.
As featured on Uncrate, Forbes, Acquire Magazine, CoolMaterial, and TheAwesomer.
What is the Minimalist™?
The Minimalist™ is a modern wallet for a streamlined lifestyle. We crafted an everyday essential that is sleek, simple and finely constructed—the perfect blend of design and function.
Like your keys and phone, your wallet is something you carry with you every day. Unfortunately, for lack of a better option, many of us have surrendered to big bulky bi-folds, or overstuffed and under-designed "thin" wallets. Today, I'm pleased to introduce you to a better option—the Minimalist™.
The problem with thin wallets
After studying other card case wallets, we noticed most of the generic pocket designs did not store cash well. After storing a few bills, you have to fold your cash multiple times and stuff them into increasingly tight pockets, leaving your wallet bulky and your cash disheveled.
Wallets with magnet or metal money clips don't work well either. These features often lack ease of use, requiring both hands to position cash into place. From a design perspective, these features are clunky and awkward; they cause your wallet to bulge even before holding any cash and the hardness of the features result in wallets that sit uncomfortably in your pocket.
As a result, current wallets end up sacrificing purpose for the sake of being thin. At CAPSULE™, we believe a wallet designed to be thin should still successfully function as intended—neatly holding both cash and cards.
Why the Minimalist™ is better
After many iterations, we finally arrived at the Minimalist™—a wallet designed to be a staple in your daily life. We refined the best ideas that card cases had to offer and integrated our unique CashStrap™ feature. The end result, is a wallet equipped to sleekly store your everyday cards and neatly organize your cash, while maintaining a low profile in your pocket.
The Minimalist's™ appearance is decidedly analog. No crazy space age fabrics or metals. Simply a functional wallet crafted with precision, using high-quality leather and premium manufacturing techniques.
Every design detail was carefully considered to produce the best blend of form and function—an aesthetic that is purposeful and understated. The stitching is minimal. The pockets are strategically placed. And the CashStrap™ feature offers a smarter way to secure your cash.
CashStrap™: A new way to hold cash
What sets the Minimalist™ apart is the innovative CashStrap™ design which allows you to store and remove cash with ease.
The CashStrap™ functions to support your everyday need to carry cash. We like to think of it as a more versatile pocket for your paper money.
The Minimalist™ has two pockets
The front pocket provides quick access to one or two of your most frequently used cards and the top pocket safely stores an additional two to four cards. The Minimalist™ comfortably carries six cards, though it can easily accommodate a few more.
* Minimalist™ Wallet: Product Demonstration
*How well is the Minimalist Constructed?
(Section added from FAQ on Oct. 7) We designed the Minimalist™ to be a wallet we would want to carry. The material is a top-grade full-grain calfskin nappa leather that has been expertly finished for a soft feel and lasting durability. There are reinforced stitches at specific stress points and the edges have been sealed with a finish coating for added wear protection, durability and a seamless visual effect. The leather will be reinforced in strategic areas for additional structural integrity and the pockets will be lined to enable smooth storage of cards. These are typical characteristics of the finest leather goods, and we are excited to be able to offer these features on the Minimalist™.
Thin from start to finish
*** Update #3 NEW COLOR AND LEATHER OPTIONS!
Please help "Kickstart" us to success
So here is where you come in. We're a modest upstart company with limited resources and we have to be strategic about where we focus our efforts. We've been crafting the Minimalist™ for friends and family and trying to meet the demand word-of-mouth has generated for the wallet. We can't make these efficiently on our in-house sewing machine; therefore, we have worked hard to scale the design and find a manufacturer that could satisfy our exacting production requirements. We have selected our manufacturing partner and have factory samples in hand. All we need now is the go ahead from you.
We feel strongly about the Minimalist™ and know that there is nothing on the market like it.
Your funding will go directly towards helping us satisfy the production tooling costs and minimum order requirements of our respected manufacturing partner, and to help us sort out other issues like brand packaging and product distribution. Any additional funds will be put towards additional intellectual property registration to further protect our ideas surrounding this project.
Production Plan
- Production of the wallets will take 15-20 days from the day we give the final go ahead (for a minimum order quantity).
- That will give us 3-4 weeks to ship product to our backers at the beginning of December 2012.
With your support and backing, we expect to have the wallets in your hands by December, just in time for the holidays. Please share this link (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gadgetomi/minimalist-by-capsule-the-definitive-essentials-wa) with any of your friends and family that might be frustrated with their current wallet situation; or better yet, gift them a Minimalist.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
Robert and the CAPSULE™ team

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
The most basic risk is managing a scheduled delivery by the end of the year in time for the holidays. If this project funds, we have lined up our manufacturing partner to begin ramping up production immediately after the project closes. We have also reserved a production slot to occur in mid-to-late October if we're fortunate enough to meet our funding requirement earlier. We also have a back-up production facility to manufacture the wallets, should any significant issue arise with the first facility that would prevent an on-time delivery.
Other risks include the ability to procure the leather for the wallets. Due to the finishing process, there could be a delay if we don't place the order early enough.
As a first production run, there are always unexpected issues that could arise. To manage these risks, we have consulted with other experienced designers and product buyers to ensure that we have considered all the potential delays.
We don't anticipate this to be of concern, but should the quality of the wallets not meet our design standard, we will incur a delay to address these issues with our factory.
We plan to keep our backers involved throughout the process as we work to meet the production timeline. We appreciate your support and can't wait to share our experience of bringing a product to market.
Before tackling wallets, I spent 12 years as a management consultant running projects for some of the world's largest and most complex companies. Having been under the pressure of delivering results for demanding clients such as Apple and WalMart, I value the importance of careful project management and controlling expectations. I'm extremely excited to be embarking on this project with the support of Kickstarters like you.
At the conclusion of the Kickstarter campaign, we will be sending out a survey where you can make your final color selections and quantities according to the schedules below.
Early Adopter:
First Minimalist™ (Black or Brown): $40
First Minimalist™ (Slate Blue): $55 (add $15 to your original pledge of $40)
Each Additional (Black or Brown): add $40
Each Additional (Slate Blue): add $55
Please add an additional $5 for International shipping (one-time).
$45 Backer Level:

The total capacity will depend on the specific combination of cards and cash. Generally, the ideal configuration is 4-6 cards and a handful of bills. However, we have stored up to 10 cards concurrently with 20 bills.
When empty: height: 3.8 in (97 mm) x width: 2.8 in (72mm) x depth: 0.2 in (5 mm)

These are typically characteristics of the finest leather goods, and we are excited to be able to offer these features on the Minimalist™.
The CashStrap™ is currently optimized for US currency, which is standardized at (6.14 in × 2.61 in × 0.0043 in = 156 mm × 66.3 mm × 0.11 mm). For reference, the usable height underneath the CashStrap™ is approximately 3.4 in (87 mm).
With a clever fold or two it should accommodate most banknotes. Please let us know if you are an international customer and we can help you determine if the wallet at the current dimensions will meet your specific needs.
Not currently. We are exploring the possibility of adding an RFID version of the Minimalist™ for those that require the blocking technology.

Two years ago Raj Rajaratnam received the longest-sentence ever handed down for violating insider trading laws. Suddenly, people are worried that he's been treated too kindly—all because of the complaint of an unnamed source in the same prison.
The impetus for the renewed attention on Rajaratnam was a column in Tuesday's New York Post by John Crudele reporting that Rajaratnam, the former hedge fund manager convicted of insider trading in 2011, is "kickin' it big in the Big House—with a personal 'manservant' at his beck and call."
"He's reigning like a king," a prison insider tells Crudele.
I spoke to a source who has visited Raj in jail. He described this as "rubbish."
Rajaratnam's "reign" includes living on the top floor of the hospital ward of the Federal Medical Center in Devens, Massachusetts. This means that Rajaratnam has access to a private toilet, an outdoor balcony, televisions and adjustable beds. All of Devens is a medical facility, but the top floor of the hospital ward is allegedly especially desirable. The "manservant" is actually a prison employee whose job it is to assist the residents of the ward.
Rajaratnam is in fact very sick. He suffers from Type II diabetes, which a former Federal Bureau of Prisons assistant director described to the court that sentenced Raj as being "under poor control." The official, who was asked to report to the court on Raj's health by Raj's lawyers, said that the diabetes had damaged his nerves, eyes and kidneys, and resulted in chronic anemia. His doctors say he needs a kidney transplant. In 2007, Raj suffered an inexplicable stroke.
Crudele's source describes Rajaratnam's condition as being like a "common cold." The sentencing judge and prison officials obviously disagree.
Is it possible that Rajaratnam is receiving "special treatment?" Of course. Perhaps prison officials and employees are treating Rajaratnam better, hoping that when his sentence expires a decade from now he'll somehow reward them (Crudele says the 'manservant' hopes to be Rajaratnam's driver after his release). But we're hardly justified in jumping to that conclusion based on the word of a single, unnamed prison insider who spoke to Crudele.
Crudele's column is garnering a lot of attention. It evokes memories of "Club Fed"—the notion that white-collar criminals tended to receive light sentences in facilities that were more like country clubs than prisons. Those stories were always exaggerated. No one ever played golf at a federal prison, although the now-closed Elgin Federal Prison Camp did have tennis courts. But even at Elgin, the original Club Fed, prisoners were required to work for 8 hours a day and sleep in a dormitory surrounded by fellow convicts.
It is true that in the past white collar criminals were unlikely to receive long prison sentences. In the 1980s, white collar crime poster boys Ivan Boesky and Michael Milken each received less than three years.
But those days are long gone. Following the accounting scandals of the early oughts, Congress passed laws significantly increasing federal penalties on white collar crimes. Judges and the Justice Department also got tougher. Bernard Ebbers, former chief executive of WorldCom, was sentenced to 25 years in prison for a massive accounting fraud. Jeff Skilling, the former Enron executive, received a sentence of more than 24 years for his role in Enron's collapse (which was later reduced to 14 years). White collar criminals, particularly those unfortunate enough to garner significant public attention, now face long, hard time behind bars.
(Read more: White Collar 'Country Club' Prisons? Not So Much)
Luke Mullins extensively described the new reality for white collar criminals in a long article for The American in 2007 titled "Enter a 'Hellish Place.'"
"As the Bureau of Prisons has worked to establish parity between the rules at prison camps and higher-security facilities, legislators have lengthened the sentences of white collar offenders. Between 1997 and 2005, the average white collar sentence has increased 24 percent, while the average sentence for a drug offense has risen 2 percent," Mullins explained.
It's not clear that this is progress. The driving force behind these changes were not rooted in empirical evidence. They were the result of politics and public outrage largely tied to stock market losses.
"The process was driven not by data that showed that current sentences were, for example, failing to deter, but by entities in the system—judges on the Judicial Conference's criminal law committee, the Probation Office, and the DOJ—who all favored higher sentences," public defenders Carlton Gunn and Myra Sun argued in a 2011 article for the American Bar Association's Human Rights Magazine.
To be sure, there is little evidence that long sentences for white collar criminals actually produces much of a deterrent effect.
"The corporate workers who are considering establishing shells to inflate the profit of their corporation would just as easily be deterred knowing that they could receive 10 years in prison as to receive 25. Where general and specific deterrence may have an effect when the robber decides whether to be armed or not in committing the robbery, the SHAME in the community is by far the harshest punishment felt by the white collar offender. That shame is felt irrespective of whether the sentence is 10 years or 25 years," Ellen Podgor, Stetson law school's Gary R. Trombley Family White-Collar Crime Research Professor and Professor of Law, has written.
Podgor points out that most white collar criminals are forever incapacitated from recidivism by the mere act of conviction. This is surely true when it comes to Rajaratnam. There's no way he is ever going to be in the position to trade on insider information ever again. His criminal career is permanently over regardless of how long he serves in jail.
Criminal justice is also supposed to include an element of proportionality, the idea that the punishment should fit the crime. Insider trading is illegal but it is also very nearly a victimless crime. The long sentences that we've seen over the past decade for white collar criminals have arguably gone over to the side of excess.
"The most obvious comparison for the emerging attitude toward white collar criminals is the harsh punishment we give to people involved in the drug trade. But both represent increasingly irrational and inhumane levels of punishment," Jonathan Simon, a professor of law at the University of California, Berkeley, told the New York Times back in 2005.
Simon's comparison of drug crimes with white collar crimes is helpful because it explains one of the reasons that the treatment of the latter has grown so much harsher in recent years. Before sentences were extended and prison conditions made harsher, there was a clear disparity between the way different classes of criminal were treated. This resulted in unseemly racial, economic, and social disparities in sentencing, among other problems. Camp Elgin was, for example, 66 percent white—which is far from a proportional representation of the broader prison population. These disparities were considered by lawmakers, the federal judiciary, and many legal professionals as a serious human rights problem.
Harsher sentences for white collar criminals has certainly helped narrow those disparities. But there's no reason why the ratchet should not have gone the other way: reducing the sentences for non-violent crimes that aren't considered white collar. Indeed, that article in the American Bar Association's Human Rights Magazine argued that the disparity had been closed "in the wrong way."
"There is an obvious alternative remedy for the disparity between sentences for white collar crime and sentences for blue collar crime. That is the reduction of sentences for blue collar crime, or even a partial reduction for those sentences and a partial increase in white collar crime sentences," Gunn and Sun argued.
The complaint that Rajaratnam is getting "special treatment" is a version of this same dynamic. It's driven not by evidence, but by anger over a perceived disparity and a strong dose of class warfare (Crudele describes Rajaratnam as a "billionaire baby.") A fear that a rich guy is somehow getting away with it.
Rajartnam, of course, is not getting away with anything. He's an unhealthy man serving the longest sentence ever handed down for insider trading. If he serves his full sentence, he will be 65 when he emerges from prison. Could we make him suffer more? Undoubtedly. Fortunately, our criminal law system isn't yet aimed at maximizing the suffering of those we convict.

Best neighborhood spot in Fed Hill – I almost hate to write this, because Porters already tends to get very crowded during happy hour (5 to 7) up until about 8. But Porters is the best neighborhood bar in Federal Hill, in my opinion. There's just the right mix of regulars, people who live nearby, and people who are just visiting the neighborhood. They serve awesome food at very reasonable prices (considering the quality of the ingredients and creativity of the chef) and they offer pretty good wines to pair with it. It's part sports bar, part restaurant. You could sit at, or stand near, the bar if you just want drinks and maybe a snack. Or get a table in the bar area, or the more formal dining room. You'll find the beer and wine selection to be awesome, the food to be surprisingly tasty, and the people (both staff and other customers) to be happy, warm, and friendly. There's nothing to NOT love about this place.
Porter's is reopened under new ownership! – Porter's has just re-opened under a new owner and the place looks great! It's very cozy and there are plenty of tvs to watch your favorite teams! The new menu is upscale bar food/comfort food with a twist. Definitely something for every one! Brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 3pm. Very convenient to grab a bite before a Ravens or Orioles game! Parking can be hard, but there is a non residential area just 2 blocks away in front of Digital Harbor High School.
Great Atmosphere, Great Food – I ate at Porters on a Sunday evening in Dec 08 and it was pretty packed, but not so crowded that there was a wait. I went with my two toddlers and their grandparents. Really liked the variety on the menu and the chicken cheese steak was excellent. Only negative was the long wait for the food to arrive and their was a bit of an attitude given from the bartender when we asked that they change one of the stations to show a different game. She indicated she'd do it in a few minutes, but then failed to change the channel. I can give her the benefit of the doubt, given the amount of customers she was trying to cover, though she seemed annoyed at my request.
Editorial Review – Catch the game on six plasma TVs and take advantage of daily food and drink specials, burgers, seafood and brunch.
Great Little Pub, Ok food, Ok service – We visited Porter's for the first time last night. The atmosphere is welcoming, definite neighborhood type of bar. They have a fabulous wine by the glass selection (and the menu is laid out well), but the glasses of wine are very small. The beer selection was above average but they were out of several taps leaving few choices available. The service was not so great - the waitress forgot our soup, brought out the wrong item, and did not ask if we wanted a second round of drinks until the meal was over. Dinner was large portions, but the food was just average. All in all it wasn't a bad experience but does not rank top of my list.
Good Federal Hill pub – It's a nice relief to come to Porters after all the craziness on Cross Street. The owner, Joe, is such a great guy. I love the new booths they've added, too.

Police Find Stolen NDSU Fleet Vehicle in Red RiverPolice are looking for information about a truck stolen from North Dakota State University's fleet that wound up in the Red River on Sunday morning.
FARGO – Police are looking for information about a truck stolen from North Dakota State University's fleet that wound up in the Red River on Sunday morning.
Fargo fire and police personnel responded at 7:30 a.m. to a report of a vehicle in the river near the 1400 block of Elm Street North. They found a 2007 Dodge Durango with state plates sitting upright in waist-deep water.
The discovery set off a search for possible occupants who may have tried to escape into the cold water. But no one turned up, and police now believe the truck was put there intentionally.
"Somebody probably just put it in gear and let it go down the hill," said Sgt. Kevin Pallas.
He said the truck was in gear and the keys were in the ignition when police found it.
Elm Street skirts close to the riverbank at that stretch, and often is closed when the water is high.
It's not clear when the truck went into the river, but it likely happened before the snow fell Sunday morning because the tracks leading to the river were filled in with snow, Pallas said.
He said NDSU didn't know the vehicle was missing until it turned up in the river. Police are still working to figure out who took it.
"This seems like it was maybe intentionally done," Pallas said.
Fargo Fire Department Capt. Dane Carley said the discovery was initially treated like a search-and-rescue operation because of the risk of hypothermia.
Divers and dogs were on hand until authorities determined no one was in danger.
"We had to approach it that way," Carley said.
The truck was later towed from the river.

Johnny.S gave this placeAbsolutely divine!Hi Ed, I'm not sure if you remember me or not. I stayed at your resort during the weekend of February 9th with my boyfriend and another couple. I wanted to thank you so much for your great hospitality. Not only was your resort beautiful from beginning to end, the hospitality was truly exceptional. You really personalized your service for us and we all wanted to say how much we appreciate it. We all had an amazing time. Thank You!

Monkey0fframp gave this placeJust returned from our first stay with Ed Lugo.Having a birthday that falls during spring break, SUCKS unless you're staying with Ed. My partner and I spent spring break at this wonderful little oasis just off the strip of Wilton Manors. Ed arranged everything we needed for a peaceful trip, from stocking our fridge with complimentary drinks and snacks to arranging a massuese in our secluded private courtyard. He had all the info on which bar or restaurant to go to, but more importantly, where NOT to go. We were not dissapointed with any aspect of our trip, we felt like locals.

Rachel82 gave this placeVery Satisfied Honeymooners! Will return!My husband & I just returned from our honeymoon stay in villa 2406 (2 bedroom, full kitchen, dining & living room areas). We really couldn't be any happier with our stay. I found it while researching online and emailed the resort back in February before booking to ask if we could bring my small dog. I received a quick response with a friendly message from Ed giving his permission. Upon checking in, Ed greeted us with a glass of wine and chit chat. The office is decorated beautifully with fresh flowers everywhere. Ed was warm and genuine, offering up reccommendations for nearby restaurants. He introduced us to Lourdes, who showed us around the pool area & to our villa located about 5 steps from the pool- it is absolutely gorgeous! Especially at night, the pictures & reviews do not lie. The decor inside the villa was boutique-like, tastefully done and very nice. There were fresh flowers throughout, robes, chocolates, complimentary snacks & drinks, a nice display of chilled champagne with glasses and chocolate dipped strawberries. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you'd need to cook in. The first night we used thier outdoor grill & had dinner on the back patio, which was beautiful. The heated pool is lit up very nicely at night, and paired with the waterfall & exotic foilage everywhere, it is simply stunning. Everything screams romance and relaxation! We spent time lounging in the hammock & hottub. We also pretty much had the pool to ourselves most of the time, which was great because I could have been perfectly content never leaving this property during our entire honeymoon. A nice touch is their outdoor shower made private by more trees & various foilage. Lourdes took great care of us, checking on us daily, bringing extra towels, etc. Although we refused daily housekeeping, it was offered to us. She even offered to walk our dog! There was someone on the property 24/7 if we needed anything. This place is so uniquely private & so close to everything at the same time. We reccommend visiting Le Patio restaurant if you're looking for a romantic dinner out, a 5 minute walk from the resort (amongst various other close by restaurants). There are plenty of things to do in town & the resort is a 10 minute drive from the beach as well. All in all, we loved this place & will be back. The value, hospitality and personalized touches you get for the price can't be matched. While coming home yesterday (we live on the other coast), we had driven about an hour when I realized I left some clothes in our unit by mistake. We called Ed & he kindly offered to mail them to us. If you are considering this place for a private getaway with your significant other, DO IT! You won't be disappointed. I highly reccommend 2406 for it's amenities and location by the pool. You could comfortably have 2 couples stay in this unit without it being too cramped, which is exactly what we hope to do in the future. Thanks again Ed & Lourdes! You guys are wonderful hosts!

Yes, but requires a PSP with the game to run... like is show in this video at 04:19
Oh, I understand now. Not good for people who don't have a PSP and want to play this game.
Thanks for the clarification though.
I did get it and installed it and I now get this error:
Whats wrong now?Code:$ nopdrm.py NPEA00007 nopdrm.pkg /usr/bin/nopdrm.py:71: RuntimeWarning: tmpnam is a potential security risk to yo ur program unselfed = os.tmpnam() Error decrypting metadata: No such file or directory Failed to unself the EBOOT.BIN!
I tried to install PSL1GHT and half of it failed. I did exactly like it says on the website (PSL1GHT.COM)
Turtles Reshelled is just like the old arcade game but with the obvious graphics upgrade.
No, I can't. Requesting not game but small PSP connector app, that works only with Dreamy Theater 2nd PS3 version.

Valpo Draws 1-1 at Centenary on Friday Night
Friday, October 13, 2006A penalty kick goal for both Valparaiso and Centenary proved to be the only scoring on Friday night as the Crusaders and Ladies battled to a 1-1 double-overtime tie in Mid-Continent Conference play down in Shreveport, La.
The two schools played a scoreless first 45 minutes despite the Brown and Gold holding a 5-3 shot advantage.
Jackie Thomas (Overland Park, Kan./Blue Valley Northwest H.S.) put Valpo in front just 4:49 into the second stanza with a penalty kick goal, her fourth tally of the season.
Centenary (4-9-1, 0-3-1 Mid-Con) went a player down due to a red card in the 60th minute, but the Crusaders were unable to find the back of the net again on this night.
The Ladies tied the match with a penalty kick goal off the foot of Joanna Bunn with 17:27 to play, and the contest would remain 1-1 through two overtime periods.
Valpo outshot Centenary 16-6, including a 7-3 advantage on goal, while holding a 10-0 edge in corner kick opportunities. Erin Murray (Pleasanton, Calif./Amador Valley H.S.) made two stops for the Crusaders while Ali Hilsher made four saves for the Ladies.
The overtime contest for the Brown and Gold was Valpo's 13th straight without a defeat. The Crusaders are 6-0-7 in overtime contests during the span dating back to the 2003 season.
Valparaiso (11-3-1, 3-0-1) will remain in Shreveport for a neutral site match on Sunday morning against McNeese State. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m.

Belmont Stakes: Big Brown Runs and Studs
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
With the Belmont Stakes coming this Saturday — and a potential Triple Crown winner — the sports world again turns its gaze towards the horse racing industry and this year, all eyes are watching Big Brown. Can the horse with the UPS tie-in complete the Triple Crown, something that hasn't been done in, well, a freaking long time? Will his cracked left hoof hold up to a 1.5 mile gallop while carrying jockey Kent Desormeaux?
If the reports are from today's test run are to be believed, it certainly looks like Big Brown will be up to the challenge on Saturday but will he be able to hold off the seemingly made-for-the-Belmont thoroughbred in Casino Drive? Trainer Rick Dutrow, Jr. doesn't seemed concerned:
"There's not any issues with our horse," Dutrow said. "He's right on target. He's by far the best horse in the race."
These comments come on the heels of a little horse-racing trash talk from from the Big Brown camp towards Casino Drive and the rest of the field.
Obviously, Dutrow isn't worried about the safety or ability of his horse (and by safety, I'm referring to whether or not the cracked hoof would give Big Brown problems).
In other Big Brown news, after he retires, the horse has certainly has his future planned out — one of impregnating willing mares. According to reports, Big Brown will receive $100,000 each time he gets a female horse pregnant… and I thought Las Vegas hookers were expensive. Of course, you don't get to impregnate one either (eww), but I digress.
Finally, it has been revealed the final resting place of Eight Belles will indeed be at Churchill Downs.

text: Obama on JPMorgan debacle: 'This is why we passed Wall Street reform' 05/14/12 09:40 PMUpdated 09/06/13 07:02 AM facebook twitter like save share group discuss By Zachary Roth When JPMorgan Chase sheepishly announced last week that it had taken a $2 billion loss on risky derivatives trading, it underlined the fact that nearly four years after a crisis that nearly toppled the global financial system, we still haven't done nearly enough to make sure it can't happen again."JPMorgan is one of the best-managed banks there is," President Obama declared on ABC's The View, in footage that aired Monday evening. "Jamie Dimon, the head of it, is one of the smartest bankers we've got, and they still lost $2 billion … This is why we passed Wall Street reform."But has Wall Street reform solved the problem? "There's nothing to stop Jamie Dimon and JPMorgan Chase from going right back down the same road and doing this all over again tomorrow," Ed Schultz noted on The Ed Show Monday night. "Because it's perfectly legal."Wasn't the financial reform legislation of 2010 – better known as the Dodd-Frank law – supposed to end this kind of hazardous trading? Bart Chilton, Commodity Futures Trading Commission explained on The Ed Show that the problem is that many of the law's specific regulations haven't yet been drawn up – a task that falls to the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory agencies."We need to put the meat on the bones of Dodd-Frank," Chilton said. "They passed the law two years ago, but two thirds of the regulations aren't even in place. Regulators didn't even have a view of what it was. That needs to change."Chilton outlined one of the most important provisions in Dodd-Frank that he said regulators should be focusing on – the Volcker Rule, which bans banks from making bets with their own money. He said that until that rule is fully drafted and enforced, banks will continue to be able to place massive, risky bets with their customers' money - just as they did in the lead-up to the financial crisis – without breaking the law."Right now," said Chilton, "there's a troublesome duplexity within the banking system. They've got their own interest – their bottom line – and their customers'. We know who's always gonna win out."Of course, not everyone thinks we need to monitor the financial industry more closely. Asked in a recent interview whether the JPMorgan debacle means we need more or less financial regulation, Reince Priebus, the chair of the Republican National Committee replied: "I think we need less."

If you have ever felt like the whole world was against you, you can at least empathize with some of the pain of Jesus' calling: not only the religious leaders (vv. 24, 38) but his own family doubted him. Family ties were paramount (compare clan ties even in Rome-for example, Dupont 1992:106-8), and being perceived as antifamily brought even more reproach then than it does today (see Derrett 1973:39). Yet Jesus followed the practice he had demanded of others (8:21-22; 10:37): the kingdom of God comes first. Obedience to God's will (7:21; 21:31; 26:42) is what makes one Jesus' true brother, sister or mother (25:40; 28:10). When we acknowledge God as our Father, his family becomes our family, and our allegiance to him as Father must come before all earthly allegiances.
From this we learn both the importance of obedience and the futility of depending on other means of access to Jesus. Those who suppose they have some natural claim on the kingdom have no claim on it at all. But those who obey God's will for themselves have an intimate relationship with Jesus and can depend on him the way members of his immediate family can. Perhaps Jesus stresses the priority of spiritual family here because he hopes to be able to count on his disciples too.
