El Salvadoran Sentenced for Social Security Fraud
United States Attorney Deborah R. Gilg announced that Oscar Armando Amaya, 20, of El Salvador, was sentenced in Omaha today by United States District Judge John M. Gerrard, to serve four and a half months in prison, for Social Security fraud, in violation of federal law. In addition to his prison term, he will serve three years of supervised release following his release from prison.
On August 3, 2012, Homeland Security Investigators encountered Oscar Amaya, whom they believed to be an MS 13 gang member, working at the Asian Market, 321 North 76th Street, in Omaha. They determined he was illegally present in the USA and was working under someone else's Permanent Resident Alien number and an unassigned Social Security Number.
This case was investigated by Homeland Security Investigations.

"One year into it, learning how this game is played at this level, it's definitely been an advantage."
Bruce is one of many who hit WVU expecting to play the 3-3-5 odd stack instead of the current 3-4 that transitions into a 4-3.
"In high school we ran a little 3-3 stack," Bruce said. "I was pretty good at it, but at that point I was one of the bigger kids. I looked pretty good at it. So I was thinking, ah man, a 3-3 stack, I should do pretty well. But going against people 100 pounds heavier than you, it's not as easy.
"Now, though, we're running a 3-4 defense and it's a lot better fit for me."
Bruce looks anything but small, but he begs to differ.
"I'm smaller than most linebackers at 6-2, 226," he said. "The way I see other people, they are huge."
For WVU fans unfamiliar with Bruce's game, he gives the lowdown.
"Fast-paced, always running to the ball, a hustler," he said. "I won't stop. At all."
And the more changes the better. Bruce, however, admits he's ready to become a creature of habit.
"I'm definitely liking the changes," he said. "But I'm hoping they stay the same for a while."

I just ate cheese, er I mean. Umm. yeah. So this seems like a useless waste of time, that is watching this film. Wouldn't any animal develop what ways we might teach them to communicate if we were to steal them/it at birth?
The chimp-human connection is frequently subject to human arrogance, sometimes cloaked in love, other times defined by science, and often supported by stupidity. Project Nim has it all. It makes awful reality, but a great movie! This is definitely my favorite movie of the year... ummm, decade.... ahhh, how about so far this century? See it.
A fantastic movie. no scripted drama could do this story justice. HErt renching and hopeful a triumph. i
A 40 year old story that really comes across as silly by today's standards. Very poor directing. This movie looks like a cut-and-paste job, really. There was nothing to be learned, nothing that sheds a new light on today's mistreatment of animals, for example. Silly staff sexual inter-relationships get into this story and make the whole thing cheap and stupid.

Hi Chris. Enjoyed your blog. My husband is also an 11th generation grandchild of Richard Warren. His lineage continues through Richard and Elizabeth's daughter, Ann, and her husband, Thomas Little.
ReplyDeleteRichard Warren is my 11th Great Grandfather. My mother's genealogy books were handed to me after her passing earlier this year. How would I check to see if my Warren line is approved by GSMD?
ReplyDeleteHello cousin. I am descended from Richard Warren through his daughter Mary (Bartlett) Warren. I have submitted four other lines to the GSMD, but I don't do that anymore. They priced themselves out of my ranged at $100 per Supplemental App. I'm secure in my facts and don't need another piece of paper to validate my research! I keep hoping that other family members will want to join and when they do I will give them some unproved line to join with.

Pick Your Poison!
What: A night of drag king and burlesque performances
When: 10 p.m. Saturday
Where: Tubby's Bar, 4350 Fowler St., Fort Myers
Admission: No cover; 21 and older only
Information: (239) 274-5001 or
All of us could use a little spice in our weekend routine.
So how about having a little fun while you shake up your gender role perceptions? A new show called "Pick Your Poison!" presented by Hen House Entertainment in Fort Myers this Saturday promises to do both.
It's a new burlesque and "drag king" troupe that's a Southwest Florida first. According to its founder, it fills a unique niche in the area. Jodi Hahn, who goes by the stage name Autumn Skye, formed the group after moving here from New York and discovering a distinct lack of entertainment choices for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. What choices did exist tended to cater less to the ladies, she said.
Getting out there
Hen House seeks to expand those choices for that population, as well as the horizons of adventurous or curious folks who just want to experience something a bit sexy, edgy and fun.
"Let us be your first time," said Billy Table, one of the lovely ladies who performs as her alter ego King William. She's also the driving force behind TwoThreeNine.com, a new website providing listings for cultural and entertainment events in Fort Myers.
"We want everyone to feel welcome," said Hahn. "It was created primarily as something to instill more life and provide representation for the lesbian community." However, men are certainly invited, and might find it a refreshing alternative to more familiar adult entertainment choices, she says.
Layers of fun
Autumn Skye delivered a preview burlesque dance performance last weekend as the finale for a feminist art event hosted by Cool Hand Luc's in Fort Myers, a funky new coffee and ice cream café that's proven a cultural event fire hose of its own. Donning a fedora and red-sequined gown, the petite beauty batted lashes and bandied flashes of shimmering underclothes, accompanied by a sultry Nina Simone tune.
The vaudevillian display seemed a welcome antidote to an all-or-nothing culture where to admire the female form as a form of entertainment one can choose a strip club on one end of the anemic spectrum or an art museum on the other.
Table explained, "The way we perform, you can come up to us, we'll give you a kiss on the cheek, you can kiss us on the cheek, give us a dollar. It's not offensive — it's fun.
"You don't have to be a woman, you don't have to be gay," Hahn said. "You just have to have an open mind. You're not going to see something that's going to give you nightmares."
A royal drag?
Although they don't occupy a mainstream role, drag queens have enjoyed a good degree of visibility with the help of such iconic figures as RuPaul and breakout films such as "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert "and "The Birdcage (La Cage Aux Folles)." The cultural landscape, though, has yet to warm up to their male-impersonating counterparts.
People love burlesque today because it incorporates all the old-school glamour, satire and highlights the female form — it's something that many women can actually see themselves doing.Baby Doe, burlesque star
People dress and perform in drag for different reasons. A common theme between kings and queens, though, is an exploration of identity as a dynamic process rather than a fixed state. They often strive to caricature certain accepted gender-associated traits, rather than aiming for a dead-on imitation of the other sex. The basic point is to create an illusion that engages audience members to find some space for play within their expectations.
"There's a unique beauty about someone who can be a drag king," said Hahn. "If you take a pretty girl, and you're able to make her handsome at the same time — how many people can do that?"
Your cup of tea
The women of Hen House assure us that between the female burlesque dancers, the drag kings, an assortment of music and styles and a healthy dash of humor, there will be something for almost everyone. That's the story behind the name of the show, "Pick Your Poison!"
"It's a variety show," explained Hahn, "so there will be burlesque dancers and drag kings. But within that, each performer is very different from each other. Whatever you're into, whether you're a guy, a girl, or straight or whatever, if you open your mind up enough, you will find something that is your cup of tea."
Hahn also said she hopes by being a powerful presence in the community, the group will increase awareness of LGBT issues and help people struggling with their sexual identity to feel less alone. Compared to New York she said, "People are much more in the closet" in Southwest Florida. She hopes to develop some energy with Hen House and when the time is right, ultimately establish a pride parade in Southwest Florida.
"It's ludicrous we don't have one. … I think people should be done being quiet. This place is changing a lot," she said. "And this is going to be a tidal wave."

What makes a video horrifying? That's easy—living beings trapped in a tiny enclosure for most of their lives, having sensitive body parts chopped off without painkillers, being repeatedly beaten with metal rods and canes, having metal rods shoved up their anuses and hard canes rammed into their vaginas, being slammed head first against the ground and left to convulse and slowly die, and being forced by captors to move … even with injuries so severe that they have to drag their legs behind their bodies. This is the stuff that horror movies are made of.
I don't think many will argue with the notion that factory farms and slaughterhouses are the perfect backdrops for horror movies—there are strange metal contraptions everywhere, along with hooks for hanging bodies, gates, conveyor belts, metal rods and canes, violent workers, knives, blades, blood and body parts, and even powerful bolt guns that are *supposed* to kill when driven into the brain. So it's no surprise that the factory farm video footage from "The Most Horrifying Video You'll Ever See!" is legitimately horrifying.
So many people LOVE to watch horror movies but don't even realize that these gory scenes happen in real life. That's why YOU should take the opportunity to show everyone just how gruesome factory farming is. All you need to do is share "The Most Horrifying Video You'll Ever See!" on Facebook or Twitter. It's as simple as that.
Here's the deal:
Here's an example:

Love this cleaning product! Cleans so well and without any remaining residue or film. Thank you for this great product!
I have been using this Glass and Surface cleaner for years and recently started using it on the tile in my shower. WOW, it removes the tough water spots and shampoo/conditioner splatter that is dried on. It is both safe(don't have to cover my mouth, open windows or wear gloves when using) and effective! Thanks for a great product! Binski
We were looking for a cleaner to use on our Stainless Steel topped dining table after dinner time. We had tried "stainless steel" cleaners,even environmentally friendly ones, but they all left the top of the table looking way too oily.. Other surface cleaners including Seventh Generation's surface product left streaks. We ended up using this product because a) it doesn't leave any streaks b)dries clear without leaving the table feeling oily c)its non-toxic so I don't have to worry about using it on stainless steel dining table.

In May, the world's largest social network went public in what was one of the most highly-anticipated IPOs in history. But, as Metallica might say, the soothing light at the end of Facebook's tunnel turned out to be a freight train. Thanks to an exorbitant valuation, exchange glitches and growing skepticism about Facebook's ability to make money, shares of Facebook stock, which was priced at $38, were quickly battered to the twenties, and then to the teens.
Facebook can't turn back the hands of time and redo its public debut, but it can convince Wall Street that it is going to make money and lots of it. And that's precisely what it has been focusing on since May.

FOREX-Dollar on track for weekly gain on debt deal optimism
- Tweet
- Share this
* Dollar rises vs yen on prospect of U.S. debt deal * Obama and Republicans struggle to reopen gov't, raise debt limit NEW YORK, Oct 11 (Reuters) - The dollar was on track for its first weekly gain in five against a basket of currencies, as optimism grew that the U.S. Congress will reach agreement on a stop-gap deal to avert a devastating U.S. default. President Barack Obama and congressional Republican leaders moved to end their fiscal impasse on Friday but struggled with the details for a short-term reopening of the federal government and an increase in the U.S. borrowing limit. With no certainty that a deal will be struck to raise the limit by the Oct. 17 deadline, analysts said, the dollar will remain pressured while safe-haven currencies such as the yen will be attractive. Worries about the U.S. budget and debt crisis had driven the dollar index to an eight-month low last Thursday. "Investors have happily noted the shift in negotiating parlance by diving head first back into riskier asset pools," said Christopher Vecchio, currency analyst at DailyFX in New York. "The Australian and New Zealand Dollars, which bended but didn't break this week, are leaders alongside the euro." The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, was little changed at 80.383 on Friday but pace for a gain of 0.3 percent this week, the first weekly rise since early September. Options investors are curbing bets that profit from a stronger dollar, with one-week euro/dollar risk reversals showing options investors sought the smallest protection against the euro's depreciation since January. One-year risk reversals show demand for euro puts, the right to sell the euro at a future date, at its smallest since April. The dollar rose 0.4 percent to 98.49 yen, having hit a session peak of 98.57 yen, according to Reuters data, the highest since Oct. 1. Support is seen at the 200-day moving average of 96.87 yen. The euro rose 0.2 percent to $1.3550. The dollar rose 1.1 percent against the yen for the week, its best week since August 23. Paul Bednarczyk, head of research at 4CAST In London, said markets were hoping for a deal before the end of the weekend. "If we get a deal that is more than just can-kicking, then equities will go up and dollar/yen will go up with it. There is a very reliable correlation at the moment and nobody is going to fight it," he said, adding that the dollar could target 100 yen. High-yielding, growth-sensitive currencies rose. The New Zealand dollar gained 0.6 percent to $0.8323. The Australian dollar added 0.2 percent to $0.9467. The fiscal impasse has taken the spotlight off the Federal Reserve for now. But expectations are growing the Fed will have to evaluate the impact of the government shutdown, now in its 11th day, before it scales back its buying of $85 billion per month of Treasuries and mortgage bonds. "A short-term deal would keep the level of uncertainty relatively high and likely keep consumers' and business sentiment pressured," said Omer Esiner, chief market analyst at Commonwealth Foreign Exchange in Washington D.C. "The ongoing fiscal drag would, in turn, likely keep the Federal Reserve from scaling back its monetary easing further into 2014." A survey showed Friday that U.S. consumer sentiment deteriorated in October to its weakest in nine months as the first federal government shutdown in 17 years undermined Americans' outlook on the economy. The dollar showed little reaction to the data, given the bigger concerns surrounding negotiations in Washington. "If it was not already, it will be near impossible for the Fed to commence tapering before year-end if only a six-week debt extension is agreed," said Tom Levinson, FX strategist at ING, in a note to clients. He said the dollar index would struggle to sustain a rally to 81.00, the level it reached before the U.S. central bank surprised markets on Sept. 18 by opting not to start trimming its bond buying.

craftsman tools are one of the best tools.when you make a purchase sears goal are that the customer are completely satisfied with that purchase.If for any reason you are not satisfied simply return your purchase in it original packaging with your receipt.Great policy.
My wife's previous bypass pruners from another store had broken. I found these at Sears and bought them for her to use in her garden.
Initially I was a little disappointed to find that when I got home after buying them that they are no longer made in the US. But with all the quality issues that these pruners have I'm not at all surprised.
The pruners are sharp but don't appears as durable as her previous ones, which coincidentally only lasted one season. The locking mechanism sticks and is nearly impossible to operate with one hand. The handles are hard, oddly shaped and uncomfortable to hold for longer periods of time.
In retrospect, even with the lifetime warranty I would steer clear of these Craftsman Bypass Pruners.

They are sharp and cut very well. They feel heavy and solid, so I hope they will last some time. The locking mechanism is plastic and a little hard to move, but it locks securely. Got them on sale, definitely worth the price.

I got this product at a great buy and ordered it online. The store pickup was very easy and quick. I have never had a problem buying online and picking up at the store. Sears is a great place to shop and always has quality products.

Very surprised at the apparent quality of these pruners given that I paid less than $4 for them. They have a good weight to them and fit comfortably in my hand. The locking mechanism is easy to use even with gloves on. Since it is winter here in New England, they haven't been thoroughly tested, but worked well trimming some small branches on the Christmas tree. So far, I would recommend these.

The main budget bill coming before California lawmakers today is a 777-page piece of legislation that spells out how the state will spend billions of dollars over the next fiscal year.
A Senate panel raced to consider the measure Thursday, along with a handful of related bills that arrived in committee fresh off the printer.
Passing the annual budget requires two dozen or more bills, the entire contents of which are virtually impossible for any one person to read in the days -- and sometimes minutes -- leading up to the floor vote.
The process inevitably comes down to the wire, a function of deadline procrastination and a desire to keep lobbyists in the dark after deals are struck behind closed doors, for fear they would generate enough opposition to unravel a compromise.
Those outside the Capitol criticize legislative leaders annually for a lack of sunshine.
"I think the bills should be in print for three days," said Bob Stern, a veteran government watchdog who helped craft the state's Political Reform Act. "I think three days would give everybody some chance to look at what's in these bills, particularly the budget bill, which is the most important one of the year. But it's usually provided at the last minute."
In last year's late-night budget vote, lawmakers approved a 73-page bill on education finance less than an hour after it reached the Senate floor. Assembly Bill 114 contained the guts of a compromise struck by Gov. Jerry Brown, Democratic leaders and the powerful California Teachers Association to prevent midyear teacher layoffs and curtail the powers of school district administrators.
Democratic leaders needed the union's support to reduce school funding, and districts might have killed the bill, given enough time.
On Thursday, the Senate budget committee considered less than half of the 24 bills necessary to carry out a balanced budget for the fiscal year that starts July 1. None was available online the previous evening.
Besides the main budget bill, which specifies the amounts spent on programs, lawmakers must pass other bills covering subjects from public safety to education that detail the steps necessary to save money or raise revenue.
Under Proposition 25, which voters passed in 2010 to force the Legislature to deliver on-time budgets, lawmakers say they must pass only the main budget bill by midnight tonight to avoid losing their pay and expense money. Democratic leaders plan to take up the main bill today and vote on most subject-oriented bills next week.
State Controller John Chiang withheld lawmakers' pay a year ago in part because he said they needed to pass the full slate of budget bills to meet their responsibility. But Chiang was disarmed by an April court decision that said he has no authority to judge the Legislature's budget.
Lawmakers themselves have the power to say whether a budget is balanced. They have essentially done so this year with a provision in the main budget bill declaring revenue at $94.4 billion, which assumes state voters will pass a November ballot initiative raising taxes on sales and upper-income earners.
The Senate budget committee met for an hour Thursday to consider 11 bills, while the Assembly did not convene its budget committee in advance of floor votes today. Notably absent from the Senate hearing were Republican lawmakers, who said they boycotted because the bills were not in print 24 hours beforehand.
"You've got to know what's in there if you're going to make an informed decision," said Senate Republican leader Bob Huff, R-Diamond Bar. "This process has taken partisanship and secrecy to new levels."
Republicans may know less this year about budget contents than ever before. Prior to 2011, a two-thirds vote of the Legislature was necessary to pass a budget, which meant Republicans had a seat at closed-door meetings and sway over the final product. Though Democrats had majority-vote budget power last year, they negotiated in an attempt to place taxes on a special election ballot.
This year, Democrats gathered signatures to place the tax initiative on the November ballot, and they have left Republicans out of serious budget discussions. Lawmakers did not hold two-house "conference committee" hearings on the budget this year, bypassing a process that once was instrumental to writing most of the budget.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg downplayed complaints about transparency, saying all of the individual budget proposals were vetted "in the light of day" during 60 different hearings this spring. He blamed Republicans for taking themselves out of negotiations and called their boycott "silly."
"The Republicans are desperately trying to find a way, I guess, to make a point," Steinberg said. "But what's been apparent around here for years is that when you sign pledges and you take extreme positions, you don't give yourself a chance to be as relevant as you want."
Steinberg said lawmakers and Brown were only about $200 million apart in a $91 billion general fund budget.
But it was not clear that Brown's position on the bill will come down to a dollar amount. The governor has called for dramatic cuts in key safety-net programs, including welfare-to-work, that Democratic legislators have resisted. And Michael Cohen, an aide speaking on behalf of Brown, blasted the Democrats' plan to take $250 million in funds that counties believe they are owed from pacts with redevelopment agencies.
The $250 million proposal was an example of why lawmakers often wait until the last minute to release details. Three hours after Democrats revealed that idea Wednesday, the California State Association of Counties condemned the plan and hinted that counties may sue.
"It's kind of a Catch-22," said Jeff Cummins, a political science professor at Fresno State, who recently published a study of state budget gridlock. "It's a good thing to have more transparency. But at the same time, it could hurt efforts at compromise if lobbyists get ahold of information and organize protests."

RIM promo: Buy two Playbooks, get one free
Maybe one PlayBook wasn't enough to get you interested in Research In Motion's tablet. But three? That's a whole different story.
At least, that's what RIM is banking on in its latest promotion. Business customers who purchase two PlayBooks through a designated reseller get a bonus one for free. In addition, they get their choice of accessories for each tablet.
It's the latest in a line of promotions offered by RIM and its retailer partners as it attempts to spruce up sales of its PlayBook tablet. After a bungled launch and a tepid response to the product, RIM is working aggressively to move the devices off the shelves.
The latest promotion, of course, isn't directed at consumers, but at the business customers that make up the most loyal part of its base. Companies can take advantage of this promotion to outfit their staff with PlayBooks, which are ideal for sales staff, field technicians, or any employee who works remotely. The offer represents a discount of a third off of any bulk order of PlayBooks.
Retailers have already begun offering discounts to consumers, bringing the price down to as low as $299 through a combination of in-store discounts and rebates. … Read more

European Central Bank President Mario Draghi has unveiled a long-awaited programme to buy up bonds and help bring down the borrowing costs of Europe's struggling governments.
The plan envisions no set limit on the amount of bonds the ECB could buy, making the programme "a fully effective backstop" against a further worsening of the debt crisis in the 17 countries that use the euro.
The initiative - dubbed Outright Market Transactions or OMT - goes beyond an earlier, limited bond purchase programme that was not big enough to decisively lower borrowing costs.
Mr Draghi emphasised that the new, unlimited programme by contrast was open-ended and had "no quantitative limits." He said it would work because it was "very very different from any programme we have had in the past."
The new programme would continue until its goal of lower borrowing costs is achieved, or a government violates the conditions attached to getting the help.
Markets remained buoyant today as investors cheered the ECB's package of measures. In Europe, Germany's DAX was up 2.1% at 7,113 while the CAC-40 in France surged 2.3% to 3,484. The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was 1.2% higher at 5,728. The euro, meanwhile, was flat at 1.2593 US dollars.
Bond purchases push bond prices up and interest yields down, since price and yield move in opposite directions. Governments can then take advantage of the lower yields when they borrow.
Countries must constantly borrow by selling new bonds to pay off old ones that are coming due. If rates rise too much, it can make it impossible for the country to maintain its debt burden. That is what forced Greece, Ireland and Portugal to seek bailout loans from other eurozone countries.
Spain and Italy are in the same difficulty now, with Spain paying more than 6% on 10-year borrowing and Italy more than 5%. The fear is that they are too large to bail out, and that a failure to pay their debts could trigger financial turmoil that could break the eurozone apart and disrupt the global economy. Following the announcement, Spain's interest rate on its 10-year bond was down 0.3% on the day at 6.09%, while Italy's 10-year rate was down 0.18% at 5.25%.
A key feature of the OMT is that countries that want the ECB to buy their bonds must first officially ask for help from Europe's bailout funds and agree to "strict and effective" budget policy conditions. The ECB said the International Monetary Fund - which has long experience pushing governments to stick with loan conditions - should be involved in enforcing conditions.
