Square Mile set to lose world's financial first place while bonuses fall to lowest level for more than a decade
The City of London is set for further pain as bonuses fall to their lowest level for more than a decade while the Capital is also on course to lose its spot as the world's biggest financial centre.
Forecasts for the payouts due around Christmas and the early months of 2013 expect the bonus pool to total £1.6billion or £6,400 a head.
According to the Centre for Economic and Business Research, that is down from a peak of £11.6billion or £33,000 a head in 2008 - and down from previous forecasts of £2.3billion for this year.
Falling from the top: City jobs will drop to 249,000 this year against 254,000 for America's financial capital, according to the CEBR
It comes as the number of jobs in the
so-called Square Mile's financial services industry drops below the
number in New York and Hong Kong by 2015 as London loses its dominance
amid a shift to the Far East.
But the CEBR reckons a 'short-sighted over-regulation, penal taxation and banker bashing' in the UK is also to blame.
And it means the Government could
reportedly lose about £30billion to £40billion a year in tax receipts
because of the decline in City activity, compared with revenues received
at the peak of 2007.
Bonuses are also a big contributor to the Exchequer's coffers.
CEBR chief executive Douglas McWilliams said: 'The biggest loser from this is the taxman, who typically earns more from City bonuses than the employees.'
Once the loss of income from a much
smaller City, lower corporation tax, stamp duty and other City-based
taxes is totted up, government revenues from the Square Mile in the
current financial year could be just £40billion compared with the
£70billion it received in 2007/08.
London's financial services sector employed 280,000 people in 2011, compared with 262,000 people in New York.
However, City jobs will fall to 249,000 this year against 254,000 for America's financial capital, according to the CEBR.
By 2015, London will employ 237,000 -
a third less than at the peak in 2007 - against 249,700 in New York and
247,900 in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong has jumped from half London's size to overtaking London within a decade.
Despite fewer people being employed here, London still holds the largest share of the world's foreign exchange trading at 38.1 per cent, compared with 17.9 per cent for the US and 5.6 per cent for Singapore.
Lower bonuses reflect slowing City
activity during 2012. Share trading is down 20 per cent in value
compared with last year. Trading of government bonds is down by a third
and currency trading by 5pc this year.
Additionally, the number of mergers
and acquisitions has fallen by around a third and even the dominant
derivatives market is also down by a fifth in 2012.
But City firms are also paying higher base salaries while cutting bonuses to avoid the kind of public scrutiny that has sparked banker bashing.

corsa is a n reg 1.4 16v corsa B
nova is an SR F reg
with they fit????
they are avos and have front and rears
the coilovers i bought for my nova would apparently also fit a corsa and tigra.
i have changed various corsa and nova front and rear shocks, would hazzard a good guess saying yes they will fit
will the rears fit heard they wont,
what i ideally need is sumone who has avo coilovers on a nova which for a corsa,
do they rears fit,
the rims i am using are speedlines
it will be close with speedlines 3mm spacers perhaps????????????Fitted on mine just
Mark Beeson
If its a NOVA I might know. Ive tried/fixed everything.
Nova 280+ bhp and a quaife straight cut gearkit + ATB and water injection and 6 pot calipers that wont fit! Now I have a power steering setup for my nova!
I also own a Citroen Xsara VTS
should be a slightly firmer ride in comparison to the corsa due to the corsa being heavier, i have heard they fit though!
i also have avo coilovers on my corsa which were originally on my old nova. they fit fine. handles well too, if not a little harsh! i have compomotive rims on mine in 49mm offset, had to fit 5mm spacers, cos adjustment nut on coilovers were catching on tyres; what you get for winding them right down!!
did the rears fit mate???

They were showing off LED lightbulbs, a new CPU heatsink and a new HTPC case, but the most interesting is the 2 kW power supply that is shown powering TWO complete systems including a Quad-CrossFire system and an SLI system. I don't think we could have demonstrated the "overkill factor" any better myself.
Enermax quietly takes center stage
Subject: Cases and Cooling | March 5, 2008 - 05:53 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Enermax's Modu82+ 625 Power Supply does offer three 25A 12V rails with a maximum of 600W, but that's not the what the real draw is with this PSU. What really gave SPCR a charge when they were reviewing this PSU is the fact that it is the quietest fan cooled PSU they have ever encountered. It also has an impressively high efficiency rating, check out the full review.

NVIDIA 9800 GTX images show up, bore us
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 5, 2008 - 03:59 PM | Ryan Shrout
Some images have surfaced of the NVIDIA 9800 GTX and according to the notes on the page with them, the 9800 GTX will be a G92-based product and will basically be a higher clocked 8800 GT/GTS card. Not a whole lot more data, but if you wanna see what a video card looks like, I guess you can look here; not much to see.

[H]ard|OCP has put together a beast to test out CrossfireX. Four CPU cores thanks to the QX9650, 4 graphics cores thanks to a pair of HD 3870 X2s and even 4Gb of RAM. All of that power is pitted against Crysis, as well as some other popular games. Read on to see what [H] thinks about CrossfireX, and AMDs chances of being picked by the power gamer.

If you have never heard of Nexuiz, you are not alone, but you are missing out. The original release was back in 2005, and they are now up to version 2.4 which is much more highly polished than the original. Phoronix has a bevy of screenshots as well as links to the Alientrap website where you can download the game for Windows, Linux and OSX.
Give it a try, it's free and easy to set up, who knows you might even like it.
A case you can keep your beer in
Subject: Shows and Expos | March 5, 2008 - 12:09 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Thermaltake is showing off a very interesting case at CeBIT. Running copper pipes all throughout the case and using a simple compressor and expansion chamber, they've created a refrigerated case! Sure there are some problems with implementing the design, but I am very glad that they showed it to HEXUS.

The Yoggie Gatekeeper Pico is a little USB device, about the size of a flash drive, that protects your PC from attacks coming over the network. With it's software installed it works it's way into Windows' networking stack and convinces it to send all network traffic through the Pico, where it is scanned for anything nasty. Think Computers did find it to be effective, but there were also some features of the Pico that they took issue with.

Sound Blaster's new X-Fi Xtreme card is an Audigy in disguise, though it does use the PCI-E bus. The card isn't a complete waste though, the Guru of 3D found that the new chip does offer some improvements to the Audigys of old, but it is a far cry from a X-Fi. As a bonus, the card even gives a good reason to upgrade to Vista.

AMD Shows off 45 nm Shanghai at CeBIT
Subject: Processors | March 4, 2008 - 03:58 PM | Josh Walrath
We knew near the end of 2007 that AMD was expecting the arrival of the first 45 nm Shanghai samples around the first of the year. It now seems that those initial samples were fairly successful as AMD is showing off working 45 nm silicon at CeBIT. The chips in question are apparently Shanghai based and they are running a variety of OSs and applications. AMD is of course not talking about things such as clockspeed, but we can assume that the products being shown are likely the first major respin from the original samples that showed up early in January.

Return dates set for 'Survivor,' 'The Amazing Race'
CBS also sets 'Surviving Survivor' and 'Live for the Moment' specials for spring
CBS announced a slew of midseason scheduling plans on Monday (Dec. 21) morning, including the spring returns of "Survivor" and "The Amazing Race."
As was announced during the "Survivor: Samoa" finale (and had already been reported extensively online for months), the 20th edition of "Survivor" will be "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains." The season, pitting two teams of "Survivor" all-time favorites, will premiere on Thursday, Feb. 11 with a two-hour episode.
"Survivor" will also get an hour-long special titled "Surviving Survivor," airing on Thursday, Feb. 4 and focusing on the post-"Survivor" lives of many memorable castaways. Will some of those memorable castaways then be featured on "Heroes vs. Villains"? Who knows.
Another special will, this one from the "Survivor" team of Jeff Probst and Mark Burnett, will air on Thursday, Jan. 28. "Live for the Moment," shot long ago as a pilot, focuses on how individual lives were changed by single moments.
Meanwhile, the 16th installment of "The Amazing Race" will hit the starting line on Sunday, Feb. 14. Unlike the 15th installment, "The Amazing Race" will not get a two-hour premiere, because it will be followed by the time slot launch of "Undercover Boss," fresh off its Feb. 7 post-Super Bowl debut. "Cold Case" will also be migrating back to its 10 p.m. home on that night.

Oscar Guide 2011: Best Costume Design
(The Oscar Guide will be your chaperone through the Academy's 24 categories awarding excellence in film. A new installment will hit every weekday in the run-up to the Oscars on February 26, with the Best Picture finale on Saturday, February 25.)
If there's one technical branch in the Academy that can be trusted above all others to prioritize the craft ahead of the film, it's the costume designers: where others often merely check off consensus frontrunners, they routinely single out outstandingly costumed films with little to no buzz in any other race, whether it's as highbrow as "I Am Love" or as downright dodgy as "Troy."
They've certainly lived up to that reputation this year. Not only are three of the five nominees listed in this category alone, but two of them were widely panned by critics: nominating them seems a subtle assertion of independence on the voters' part, particularly when they had the safer option of nominating less distinctive period garb from Best Picture nominees like "Midnight in Paris" and Costume Designers' Guild nominee "The Help." As is stands, only four of the Guild's choices made the cut, as the Academy came to the rescue of arguably the baitiest threads of the bunch.
The nominees are...
"Hugo" (Sandy Powell)
"Jane Eyre" (Michael O'Connor)
"W.E." (Arianne Phillips)
There's no denying it's an attractive lineup, though I do wish it wasn't all period (well, save for half of "W.E.," but we know that's not the reason it's here). We're used to the branch's routine sidelining of contemporary costuming – spare a thought for David Robinson, whose perceptive, character-attuned styling of "Young Adult" and "Shame" deserved at least a Guild nod – but it's a shame they couldn't be bothered with fantasy work this year, in particular the late Eiko Ishioka's dementedly beautiful creations for "Immortals." Bring on "Mirror, Mirror."
While Kris and I both predicted first-time nominee Lisy Christl's bid for Roland Emmerich's what-if Shakespeare yarn "Anonymous," it's probably the nomination that the fewest pundits saw coming in this category. Though it's the only nominee here without a Guild nod, that omission is far more surprising than this inclusion: ruffled Elizabethan garb is a regular fixture in this category, and the lavish over-styling of Vanessa Redgrave's Queen Elizabeth I alone was surely enough to secure its place. Given the Academy's known predilection for English historical pomp in this race – it's only four years since the Virgin Queen's frocks and collars copped an Oscar here for another critically lambasted flop, "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" – it might well be enough to net the win, too. That this is the film's only nomination isn't too much cause for concern: "Marie Antoinette" managed the same feat in 2006.
Though his costuming isn't my favourite in the category, Mark Bridges is nonetheless the name I'm happiest to see here. A master of late-period kitsch, he deserved nominations for "Boogie Nights," "Blow" and "The Fighter," but this is the first time the Academy has come calling. No surprise that it took earlier, more elegant period garb to get him here: his crisp evocation of 1920s Hollywood glamour in "The Artist" is restrained by his standards, but still characterized by his playful sense of couture, as opposed to mere dutiful authenticity. The details and complications of designing a tonally rich wardrobe for monochrome shooting should not be underestimated: BAFTA's costume branch certainly didn't, handing the film their award, but general voters might respond to more colorful fare. And the film's overall momentum may not necessarily be a factor: no Best Picture nominee has won this award since 2004.
That Best Picture nominee, of course, was Martin Scorsese's "The Aviator," for which Sandy Powell, arguably the most revered designer currently working, won her second of three Oscars to date. The most recent of these came two years ago for "The Young Victoria," whereupon Powell irked some with an acceptance speech that included a blasé reference to her previous wins, and complained of the category's resistance to contemporary costuming. The branch clearly didn't mind, given that this is her third consecutive nomination (and tenth overall), though it's for yet another period piece: in "Hugo," her fifth collaboration with Scorsese, Powell clothes the less moneyed classes of 1930s Paris. It's typically bright, attentive work, and if the leading nominee turns into a technical sweeper, Powell could easily benefit -- but aside from decorous touches like Sacha Baron Cohen's gendarme uniform and recreations of George Melies's fantastical film costumes, the cast's bobbled sweaters and drab overcoats may not be ornate enough for voters.
The second of three lone nominees in the category, "Jane Eyre" is comfortably the most acclaimed of them: indeed, the well-regarded, visually lush Charlotte Bronte adaptation probably has its March 2011 release date to blame for not showing up in more categories. If it was going to score anywhere, however, this was the place: Michael O'Connor -- who took the Oscar on his only previous nomination, for 2008's "The Duchess" – has assembled a delicately shaded wardrobe that ticks the Academy's corsets-and-breeches box while subtly defining differentiations in character and class: lovely as they are, the film's threads also display more wear and weather than most period pieces usually consider. Perhaps I'm letting myself be led by personal preference, but I believe the combination of fabric-heavy prettiness and the film's good reputation gives it a potential edge in this category. The question is whether enough voters remember it from the spring.
"Anonymous" isn't the worst-reviewed film to receive a pardon from the costumers' branch this year: by tapping "W.E.," the deservedly trashed, fiction-framed biopic of Wallis Simpson and King Edward VII, they ensured that Madonna can forever put "director of an Academy Award nominee" on her CV. Sneering aside, however, it's a good call. The Material Girl was smart enough to hire previously nominated ace Arianne Phillips ("Walk the Line") for a sartorial showcase in which Simpson's noted fashion-icon status is integral to the narrative: snazzily patterned suits, liquid evening gowns and outlandish hats play at least half of Andrea Riseborough's studied performance, making some sense of Abbie Cornish's fetishization of Simpson's look in the film's sleekly dressed modern-day scenes. Madonna may be fuzzy on the finer points of filmmaking, but the lady knows her clothes. That said, this late Weinstein Company release is as widely unseen as it is unloved, which should scupper its chances.
Will win: "Jane Eyre"
Could win: "Anonymous"
Should win: "Jane Eyre"
Should have been here: "Immortals"

Back in the fall of 2005, the Federal Reserve, U.S. Treasury and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) realized that community banks were loaning funds to the housing and real estate markets at a pace above what these regulators thought was prudent. Guidelines were set and monitored via quarterly filings to the FDIC. These guidelines were formalized by the end of 2006. They included the following stipulations:
Overexposure to construction and development loans: The first guideline states that if loans for construction, land development, and other land are 100% or more of total risk capital, the institution is considered to have loan concentrations above prudent risk levels, and should have heightened risk management practices.
Overexposure to construction and development loans, including loans secured by multifamily and commercial properties: If loans for construction, land development, and other land, and loans secured by multifamily and commercial property are 300% or more of total risk capital, the institution would also be considered to have a CRE concentrations above prudent levels and should employ heightened risk management practices.
These guidelines have been and continue to be ignored by the FDIC!
Bank Failure Friday
The FDIC closed four more banks last Friday, three of which were publicly traded and on the ValuEngine List of Problem banks.
25 banks failed in 2008
140 banks failed in 2009 with a peak of 50 in the third quarter
157 banks failed in 2010
22 banks have failed year to date in 2011
344 banks have failed since the end of 2007
I still predict 500 to 800 bank failures in total by the end of 2012 into 2013.
The publicly traded banks were Habersham Bank (HABC), Clarkesville, Georgia, Charter Oakes Bank (CHOB), and San Luis Trust Bank (SNLS), San Luis California. These banks are on the ValuEngine List of Problem Banks with overexposures to both C&D and CRE loans. The C&D ratios to risk-based capital were 639.3%, 239.5% and 245.8% respectively, versus the 100% maximum guideline. The figures were 1239.7%, 814.8% and 587.6% respectively for CRE loans, versus the 300% maximum guideline. The banks' real estate loan pipelines were 98.4%, 96.5% and 100% respectively, where 60% is a healthy pipeline.
The FDIC continues to be slow in closing banks that no longer deserve to service Main Street USA.
The FDIC is ignoring the guidelines for exposures to C&D and CRE loans in choosing banks to take over the assets of failed banks. Banks are getting a back-door bailout with favorable loss-sharing arrangements with the FDIC.
Three of the banks that acquired the assets of Friday's failed banks were also in violation of the regulatory guidelines for exposures of risk-based capital to construction and development loans and to Commercial real estate loans. SCBT National Association (SCBT) has risk ratios of 145% for C&D loans and 423.7% for CRE loans that are 89.3% funded. Bank of Marin (NASDAQ:BMRC) has a risk ratio of 67.4% for C&D loans, which is fine, but has a 485.2% exposure for CRE loans with a loan pipeline that's 78.7% funded.
First California Bank (NASDAQ:FCAL) has a risk ratio of 41.5% for C&D loans, which is fine, but it also has a 358.2% exposure to CRE loans with a loan pipeline of 86.9%. ValuEngine rates each of these banks a HOLD. The FDIC policy of rewarding banks with overexposures to real estate loans is deciding which banks fail and which banks survive. This is wrong.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Six rookie quarterbacks played on Sunday, and all of them took the majority of the snaps as well.
That is staggering. One of every five teams in the NFL started a rookie quarterback on Sunday. That doesn't happen often. What was called a weak quarterback class is turning out to not be very weak at all, and three of the guys drafted in 2011 look like they may be long-term starters.
So who shined in Week 14 among the rookies? Read on for my grades of all six.

The Top 10 Conservative Idiots, No. 269
November 20, 2006
Powder To The People Edition
This Thanksgiving week, we here at Democratic Underground are giving thanks for the fact that conservative idiots are about to lose control of the United States Congress. But not to worry: there are still plenty of conservative idiots left in this country, and we've got ten of 'em right here for your enjoyment. As usual, don't forget the key!
Chad Castagana
Chad Castagana of Woodland Hills, CA, had a worse post-election hangover than most Republicans - he was apprehended by the FBI last week after allegedly sending letters filled with white powder to liberal celebrities and politicians. According to the Los Angeles Daily News:
Federal agents said he had sent more than a dozen letters containing a mysterious white powder to Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, "Late Show" host David Letterman and "The Daily Show" host Jon Stewart among other high-profile figures. Castagana used aliases such as "William Shatner" and fake return addresses and sent the letters over a three-month period, beginning in September, according to the FBI.
Many of the notes inside the envelopes contained death threats, insults and anti-Semitic phrases, federal agents said.
Radar Online kindly posted some of those notes. Check out Castagana's awesomeness:
To Keith Olbermann: "There are too many demagogues in America. All of you are poisoning the well! Time to give your kind a taste of your own medicine."
To David Letterman: "more then one way to frag a demagogue... your kind are the real poison"
To Nancy Pelosi: "CUNTFACE. IMPEACH THIS."
Not quite as eloquent as the Unabomber, but there you go.
Let's learn a little more about Chad. Again according to the Daily News:
On an old van parked in the driveway of Castagana's hillside home, the phrase "Death to all liberals" is inscribed on the van's dirty back window.
Castagana lived in a beige, multistory hillside home on Baza Avenue with his 78-year-old mother, Geneve, reportedly suffers from diabetes and rarely ventures out.
He didn't like to be spoken to, said his closest neighbor, Diana Anderson.
"He said to me, 'I don't have to talk to people face to face,"' she said Monday. "I guess that's why he used the mail."
Castagana "described himself as a compulsive voter who votes Republican, and he said that he sent the letters to specific individuals because he did not like their liberal politics," according to an FBI affidavit.
Hmm... so he's 39 years old, lives with his mother, has a dirty old van with "Death to all liberals" written on the back, votes Republican, and doesn't "have to talk to people face to face." If you think that sounds like the very definition of a member of FreeRepublic.com, guess what? You're right!
It turns out that Castagana is - or rather, was - a member of Free Republic. (The connection was made here on Democratic Underground by morgan2.) His account isn't there any more, but fortunately several people were able to grab his profile before he was banned. Check it out:
I am a lifelong Conservative Republican .
I have an Associates Degree in the Science of Electronics .
Ann Coulter is a Goddess and I worship Laura Ingraham and Michele Malkin .
English is the langauge of the United States of America- - our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution are written in the langauge that expresses our civilized freedoms .
Spanish is the language of Banana Republics, beyond that it belongs in a European country.
Funnily enough, "Marc Costanzo" had plenty to say about the fake anthrax attacks over at FR, where his signature line read, "Name your poison."
So much for "liberals supporting the terrorists." It seems that conservatives are the terrorists.
Fox News
Now that the Democrats have regained both houses of Congress, the honchos at Fox News are as desperate as Rush Limbaugh shaking an empty bottle of OxyContin. Last week the Huffington Post obtained an internal memo allegedly written by the network's senior vice president for news editorial, John Moody. The memo reveals some interesting tidbits about the mentality at Fox News.
For example, did you know that everyone who works there considers the Democratic victory in the November elections to be the end of the world? It's true. Why else would Moody feel the need to comfort his troops?
The elections and Rumsfeld's resignation were a major event, but not the end of the world.
Yes, cheer up, little Foxers. It's not the end of the world. But hey - just because it's not the end of the world, it doesn't mean that you can't report it like it's the end of the world. The memo goes on to say:
The war on terror goes on without interruption. Jennifer Griffin sent info on Hamas' calls for attacks on American interests. And let's be on the lookout for any statements from the Iraqi insurgents, who must be thrilled at the prospect of a Dem-controlled Congress.
Curious. Why, after Americans have soundly rejected the Republican party at the ballot box, would the nation's most fair and balanced news network want to go out of their way to find statements by Iraqi insurgents for no apparent reason other than to make the Democratic party look bad? Send your answers on a postcard to:
John "Goebbels" Moody
Vice President of Propaganda
Fox News
New York, NY
George W. Bush
George W. Bush went to Vietnam last week, "embracing the former U.S. enemy as a symbol of progress," according to the Chicago Tribune. "(Laura and I) were talking about how amazing it is that we're here in Vietnam," he said.
Amazing indeed, considering the lengths Dubya went to to avoid going there in the 1960s and '70s. But it turns out that Our Great Leader did learn a lesson about his unnecessary war in Iraq from America's unnecessary war in Vietnam, and that lesson is: "We'll succeed unless we quit."
I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "Hang on a minute... we lost tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers in Vietnam, killed a million civilians, and ended up pulling out when the North overran the South, yet now we're on friendly terms with the Vietnamese government, so how on earth does one glean the lesson 'we'll succeed unless we quit' from this experience? Is the president suggesting that we should have stayed in Vietnam and suffered the deaths of even more Americans and Vietnamese? Or is he laboring under the misapprehension that we actually won that war?"
If that's what you're thinking, don't worry - you're not insane. George W. Bush, on the other hand, is batshit crazy.
By the way - in yet another classic example of Bush diplomacy, the White House displayed the wrong Vietnamese flag on their website prior to Bush's trip.
They used a picture of an old flag which, according to Think Progress, "hasn't been the official flag of Vietnam since South Vietnam surrendered to North Vietnam in 1975. The display of the old flag is highly incendiary to the current Vietnamese government."
Oh well. Another day, another national embarrassment.
Glenn Beck
Two weeks ago America elected its first ever Muslim congressman, Keith Ellison (D-MN). Keith's platform included "immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq," "universal single payer health care" "energy independence through increased use of renewable energy," and "a strong and comprehensive public education policy." Apparently the voters of Minnesota's 5th Congressional District liked what they saw, because Ellison won in a landslide.
Unfortunately all those people who voted for Keith Ellison were obviously misled, so thank goodness for CNN's Glenn Beck who last week Beck pressed Ellison on his real intentions. Here's the transcript:
ELLISON: How you doing, Glenn? Glad to be here.
BECK: Thank you. I will tell you, may I - may we have five minutes here where we're just politically incorrect and I play the cards face up on the table?
ELLISON: Go there.
BECK: OK. No offense, and I know Muslims. I like Muslims. I've been to mosques. I really don't believe that Islam is a religion of evil. I - you know, I think it's being hijacked, quite frankly. With that being said, you are a Democrat. You are saying, "Let's cut and run." And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, "Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies." And I know you're not. I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way.
No doubt a lot of Americans feel this way. And no doubt they're all ignorant racists - excuse me, "politically incorrect" - like Glenn Beck. Ellison was apparently so thrown by the question that he forgot to take off his mike, get up from his chair, and give Beck the finger while walking out. Instead he said this:
ELLISON: Well, let me tell you, the people of the Fifth Congressional District know that I have a deep love and affection for my country. There's no one who is more patriotic than I am. And so, you know, I don't need to - need to prove my patriotic stripes.
Which, to be fair, is a much classier response. Not that Beck deserved it.
The Republican Party
The GOP is clearly in a state of denial and disarray - last week they re-elected the same leaders who just led them straight into the minority, John Boehner and Roy Blunt. And speaking of minorities, it seems that the Republican party is so hard up for leadership that they've decided to give Trent Lott a second chance.
Boehner and Blunt were comfortably re-elected, proving that House Republicans are still keen to "stay the course" despite the fact that their minibus just drove through a guardrail and is currently bouncing to the bottom of a crevasse. The big losers in last week's House leadership election were arch-conservative John Shadegg (27 votes) and Rep. Joe Barton of Texas, who garnered an impressive one vote.
Things were closer on the Senate side, at least for the number two spot. While Mitch McConnell - who was running unopposed - grabbed the Senate Minority Leader position, Republicans gave a good hard look at Sen. Lamar Alexander for Minority Whip before plumping for Trent Lott by 25 votes to 24. Lest we forget, Trent Lott was drummed out of his job as Senate Majority Leader in 2002 after announcing, "I want to say this about my state: When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either."
So congrats, Repubs! You just picked a pair of losers and a disgraced racist to lead your party into a bold new future. Best of luck.
The Media
Incidentally, the media didn't seem particularly interested in the return of Boner, Blunt, and the Mississippi Hair Helmet, preferring instead to obsess over "divisions" within the Democratic party like they'd never seen a leadership contest before. Oh my god! They voted! And they didn't all agree on who the new House Majority Leader should be! This is the end of the Democratic party, I tells ya.
Apparently the media have forgotten that Democrats like to hash things out and debate issues, and the pundits seem stunned that the Dems aren't marching in lockstep like the Republicans have done for the past six years. By selecting Nancy Pelosi as the first ever female Speaker of the House, Democrats gave Republican commentators everywhere an opportunity to demonstrate their feelings about strong women. Here's Mort Kondracke:
Well, so, the history on House leadership is, we had the "Hammer" - Tom DeLay - and now, we have the "Wicked Witch of the West," you know, Nancy Pelosi...
Not ugly enough for you? Perhaps you prefer New York Post Washington bureau chief Deborah Orin-Eilbeck's take:
Forget 'The Devil Wears Prada' - the hot show in Washington is 'The Shrew Adores Armani.' In just a few short days, House Speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi has turned into a caricature of the shrill, petty woman boss.
Hmm. Methinks there might be just a little bit of sore-loserdom creeping in here.
Bill O'Reilly
Poor Bill O'Reilly seems a little confused about the identity of his corporate paymasters. Reacting with horror to the news that Fox Broadcasting would be airing a prime-time special on O.J. Simpson's latest shenanigans, the Falafel Master exclaimed:
Here's a man many believe did kill those two Americans, Nicole Brown Simpson being mother of his two children. Yet Simpson is participating in a project that is exploiting the murders. Shamefully, the Fox Broadcasting Unit is set to carry the program, which is simply indefensible, and a low point in American culture. For the record, Fox Broadcasting has nothing to do with the Fox News Channel.
Hmm. Fox Broadcasting has nothing to do with the Fox News Channel? Well, I guess if O'Reilly said it, it must be wrong. And it is. According to Radar Online:
That last part must have come as shocking news to O'Reilly's boss, Fox News Channel chief Roger Ailes, who also chairs Fox Television Stations, the group behind the forthcoming "low point in American culture." The shared "Fox" moniker is no coincidence, either. Fox Broadcasting and the Fox News Channel are both owned by Australian overlord and News Corp. founder and chief Rupert Murdoch. And the Fox Broadcasting Corporation - the people who program prime time for the Fox network - regularly air Fox News-produced programming, from coverage of presidential speeches to O'Reilly's special "documentaries" about people who hate children and Jesus.
In other words, Fox News Channel was conceived, launched, and continues to be run by the man who is responsible for running the selfsame stations that will, shamefully, broadcast Simpson's fantasy about killing "those two Americans" to millions of other Americans.
But more to the point, doesn't O'Reilly have far more important things to worry about than O.J. Simpson, like, I don't know, the war on Christmas?
Republican Wife-Beaters
And now, a helpful public service announcement for Republican legislators.
At the end of October, the wife of Rep. John Sweeney (R-NY) called police "to complain her husband was 'knocking her around' during a late-night argument at the couple's home," according to the Albany Times-Union.
The emergency call to a police dispatcher triggered a visit to the couple's residence by a state trooper from Clifton Park, who filed a domestic incident report after noting that the congressman had scratches on his face, the document states. No criminal charges were filed.
Gaia M. Sweeney, 36, told a trooper that her husband had grabbed her by the neck and was pushing her around the house, according to the document.
The Times-Union notes that 2006 was a "tumultuous" year for the Sweeneys, because:
Less than two weeks earlier, his son, John J. Sweeney, then 19, pleaded guilty to felony assault charges for his role in a fight that left another young man with skull fractures and blurred vision. The younger Sweeney initially faced the prospect of spending up to 15 years in prison, but a plea deal gave him youthful offender status and a sentence that included four months of weekends in jail and community service.
Sweeney, 51, has blamed his political opponents for his son's prosecution on felony charges.
Of course he has.
Meanwhile, State Rep. Mark Olson (R-MN) was arrested last week on charges of fifth-degree domestic assault after his wife called police to their Big Lake Township home. According to the St. Cloud Times:
Rep. Mark Olson was arrested Sunday and is in Sherburne County Jail, facing charges of domestic abuse, said Scott Gudmundson, chief deputy of the Sherburne County Sheriff�s Department.
He was arrested at 7:45 p.m. at Calvin Christian School, 8966 Pierce St. NE, according to Blaine Police Chief Dave Johnson. He was handcuffed and transferred to Sherburne County without incident, Johnson said.
The moral of the story? Well, the news of Sweeney's arrest broke on October 31, and he lost his seat on November 7. Olson, on the other hand, was re-elected on November 7 and then arrested on November 12.
So the lesson for Republican legislators is clear: When beating your wife, try not to get caught until after the election.
Republican Phone Jammers
Four years ago, New Hampshire Republicans plotted to foil a Democratic get-out-the-vote operation by jamming phone lines on election day. Last week, a former telemarketer pleaded guilty to his involvement in the plot. According to the Associated Press:
Shaun Hansen, of Spokane, Wash., is pleading guilty to two federal counts of conspiracy to commit interstate telephone harassment, stemming from the Election Day 2002 jamming of get-out-the-vote and ride-to-the-polls phone lines run by state Democrats and a nonpartisan firefighters union. In exchange, prosecutors agree not to oppose his request for a sentence reduction, according to U.S. District Court papers dated Nov. 6.
No sentencing date was posted. The charges carry a total maximum sentence of seven years in prison and $500,000 fine.
Laura Ingraham, take note. On her election day radio show, Ingraham urged her listeners to jam the Democrats' voter emergency hotline, which was set up for people who experienced difficulties voting. Here's the transcript:
RECORDING OF HOWARD DEAN: We have a hotline - 1 888 DEM VOTE - anybody can call that. If they feel like there are voting irregularities, we�ll send some folks over to the polling place in a matter of minutes.
(Phone ringing) OPERATOR: Leave a message with your question or press pound to be transferred at no extra charge to your local election protection team or the state Democratic Party. (Dialing) Your call cannot be completed at this time. Please try your call again later.
INGRAHAM: Wait a second! So - (laughter) you call 1 888 DEM VOTE - otherwise 'Dim Bulb Vote' or 'Dumb Vote' - and all you do is get transferred to muzak, then they cut you off. This is what I'm thinking. Tell me if you think I'm crazy. This is what I'm thinking. I think we all need to call 1 888 DEM VOTE all at the same time.
Hilarious! Surely there's nothing more amusing that trying to block people from casting their vote. Thank goodness we have people like Laura Ingraham to remind the world why America is a beacon of democracy.
The joke might be on her though - at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing last week, Sen. Pat Leahy quizzed the Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division on whether Ingraham should be investigated for vote fraud. Oops! Sucks to have the Democrats in charge, eh?
Rush Limbaugh
And finally, good news, people! Like the happy citizens of Iraq, Rush Limbaugh feels liberated. From his radio show the day after election day:
Now, I mentioned to you at the conclusion of the previous hour that people have been asking me how I feel all night long. I got, "Boy, Rush, I wouldn't want to be you tomorrow! Boy, I wouldn't want to have to do your show! Oh-ho. I'm so glad I'm not you." Well, folks, I love being me. (I can't be anybody else, so I'm stuck with it.) The way I feel is this: I feel liberated, and I'm going to tell you as plainly as I can why. I no longer am going to have to carry the water for people who I don't think deserve having their water carried. Now, you might say, "Well, why have you been doing it?" Because the stakes are high. Even though the Republican Party let us down, to me they represent a far better future for my beliefs and therefore the country's than the Democrat Party and liberalism does.
I hate to break it to you Rush, but the reason people have been saying "Oh-ho. I'm so glad I'm not you," is not because they'd have to do your show the day after the election. They just mean it as a general comment.
But anyway, as you can see Rush now admits that, on behalf of his Republican overlords, he's been blatantly lying to his listeners all these years because "the stakes are high." What you don't know is that the transcript on Limbaugh's website has been altered. He actually said that no longer going to carry their water unless they give him steaks and get him high.
The Top 10 will be taking a break for Thanksgiving next week - have a great holiday, and we'll see you in two weeks time!

Having not gone through a four-game losing streak in almost four years, the fact the Thunder avoided that is definitely the most important thing. Especially considering the opponent, and the location. Playing the struggling Wolves at home, the Thunder sort of got right. They scored 127 points, shot 57.8 percent from the field, dominated the boards, went 9-14 from 3, didn't miss a free throw (22-22) and got big performances from Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant and Kevin Martin...
