Before Twitter and YouTube could respond, millions of users saw video of journalist James Foley being beheaded. An equally large number of people were privy to naked photos of celebrities on sites such as 4chan and reddit, after a hacker illegally stole the photos from the cloud. These were eventually removed, but not before a surprising controversy rose up around these instances: Should social media sites be in the business of censoring content-and, by extension, users?

Reviews of Touch of Evil 1958
Part of Noir-November
"He was some kind of a man. What does it matter what you say about people?"
The end justifies the means. That was his mantra. Shortcuts, grandstanding, rule-bending, hubristic excess and excessive hubris—all was fair game, so long as the final result was the desired one. No one else followed the rules. They were too busy whoring and bellowing and thieving and lying. Or else they did follow the rules and ended up with nothing. You could…
A grotesque and itchy carnival-funhouse noir that resists efforts to engage it on normal cinematic narrative terms of plot and character. A lurid, nightmare Mexican dreamscape, populated with preposterous, cartoon-like personas. The common critical wisdom is that the classic noir era is bookended by The Maltese Falcon and Touch of Evil, the former more of a prototype, and the latter more of a parody. I watched the original theatrical release cut, and look forward to watching the 1998 restored version.
Noir-November #16
More like "Quite a Bit of Evil"
Orson Welles supposedly set himself a challenge to make a great movie from a bad story; the result is this magnificently seedy potboiler, springing from the mystery of who blew up a non-entity with dynamite. Fairly soon, said mystery is safely forgotten as Charlton Heston attempts to play a Mexican detective (it's actually probably his funniest, most vulnerable performance) and Janet Leigh is left alone in a motel room with a gang of greasy hoods as well as Mercedes McCambridge…
Technically impressive (camera work, lighting and so on) but somehow I seem to have missed something.
There just seemed to be too many characters I didn't care about and a meandering plot that was a jigsaw puzzle of emotionless and confused pieces.
The pacing is off and the tone is really inconsistent. Some of the casting is poor, Charlton Heston doesn't convince as a Mexican police detective for example and neither does Marlene Dietrich as a Mexican something or other.…
Noir-November Challenge! Movie #34
The story was as grimey and gritty as Orsen Well's character Hank Quinlan! A character that was the highlight of the film! Another pleasant surprise was Marlene Dietrich's brief but memorable role as Tanya!
The opening scene was a magnificent piece of cinema! But it felt clunky in its storytelling! And I just couldn't wrap my head around Charleton Heston playing the mexican Ramon Miguel Vargas! He played it about as well as my honky white…
This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.
A truly marvelous film from start to finish and the best scenes may be the first and last. I can't believe I gave up after 30 minutes last time, mumbling something about how offensive Heston's Mexican accent and fake tan were. Safe to say I missed the point.
Who's to say if this is closest to what Welles' intended, but Walter Murch plus wild auteur seems to be safe bet for masterpiece. The plot is so dark and the characters…

I am attempting to help reduce when I hand out a database session (I am using NHibernate) so as to only hand one out if the incoming request is for a object that requires a session.
I know there is a way to get to information in the HttpApplication that would let me determine this, but I am not sure if it is as straight forward as I would like, or if I have to implement some logic based on the route request...etc.
Can someone recommend some way that I can review the request for determining this?

Archive for the 'Japanese vehicles' tag
A carefully preserved, time-capsule… 1979 Honda Civic CVCC Wagon?
1979 Honda Civic Wagon. Images courtesy Specialty Cars Limited.
By the late 1970s, Japanese automaker Honda had hit its stride in the United States, earning a reputation for affordable, dependable and fuel-efficient cars. As with many other imports, Hondas were prone to tinworm in states where road salt was a winter fact of life; thanks to this, and to the inexpensive car's perceived "disposable" nature, few well-preserved, low-mileage examples of first generation Honda Civics exist today. When one cropped up as a Hemmings Find of the Day (since sold), it was time to take a closer look.
The Honda Civic in question was a station wagon variant, built for the 1979 model year and equipped with the fuel-efficient, 63-horsepower, 1.5-liter Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion (CVCC) engine, which Honda had debuted in the U.S. in 1975. Fuel efficient, it was also particularly clean burning, thanks in part to its stratified-charge design, which utilized a second (smaller) combustion chamber, fed by a second (smaller) intake valve, that burned a slightly richer mix than that supplied to the cylinder itself through a conventional intake valve. It was the flame from the precombustion chamber that ignited the air and fuel mixture in the main cylinder, resulting in more complete combustion (and hence, lower emissions) than conventional engine designs. Ensuring the correct distribution of air and fuel to each precombustion chamber and cylinder was the job of a three-barrel carburetor, specially developed for the Honda CVCC engine by Keihin.
Initially, Honda claimed fuel economy of 49 miles per gallon highway, based upon home market testing of the Civic hatchback. By 1979, the EPA rated a five-speed manual transmission-equipped Civic hatchback at 31 MPG city and 44 MPG highway (33 MPG combined), which was significantly better than the fuel economy from American cars like the Ford Pinto (22 MPG combined) and Chevrolet Chevette (29 MPG combined). The survivor example pictured here, recently sold by Specialty Cars Limited, was equipped with the optional Hondamatic two-speed semi-automatic transmission, which lowered the fuel economy to a combined 28 MPG per EPA estimates, and surely didn't aid the Honda's acceleration.
That negative aside, the car was said to wear its original paint and carry its original tires, which had gone well beyond their useful service life. Per John Kuhns of Specialty Cars Limited, only the car's battery and a slave cylinder had been changed, although the AM/FM/8-track and rear speakers looked to be in-period add-ons. Originally sold through a Honda dealership in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, the car was recently inherited by the granddaughter of the car's original (and sole) owner; aside from that, not much is known about the car's history. How it remained so well preserved, or why it racked up less than 254 miles per year over its three-and-a-half decade life, will likely remain a mystery.
It was advertised for $11,900 or best offer. John advised that the car sold for $11,000 to a Canadian dealer who had acquired it for a specific client. That's more than double the car's original price of $4,909, including the Hondamatic transmission; whether it will be driven regularly or added to an existing collection is unknown, but the market for clean, original (and, preferably, low-mileage) Japanese cars is growing. Though this Civic Wagon surely won't appeal to all collectors, those with a passion for Japanese cars from the 1970s will appreciate it as a piece of automotive history, and a window to the not-too-distant past.
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1979 Honda Civic CVCC station wagon
While it looks as clean as a fresh restoration, this 1979 Honda Civic CVCC station wagon for sale on Hemmings.com has apparently been kept untouched and in pristine shape for 35 years. The car's single owner obviously cherished it – after all, he or she loaded it up when it was new – even though they put less than 9,000 miles on it. Hard to imagine there being a cleaner, lower-mileage example out there; also hard to imagine that any buyer will be pressing this car into daily driver service. From the seller's description:
Silver blue with blue interior, 4 door hatchback wagon, One owner from brand new, Only 8,900 actual miles from new, Original paint, Original tires, The only parts of the car that are not from 1979 are the battery and a new slave cylinder (I have the originals of both), Hondamatic transmission (automatic), Rear defroster, Heater, Chrome luggage rack, Deluxe hood with air scoops, AM/FM radio with 8 track player, An absolute survivor, Runs and drives excellent, All of the lights and guages work properly, Still has the factory installed paper on the driver's sun visor, Original owner's manual.
Location: Latrobe, Pennsylvania
Status: No Longer Available

Four-Links – King of the Hill Corvette, Nemo car replica, homebuilt EV in Manhattan, Nissan heritage collection
* No, the King of the Hill Corvette was not a propane-powered special. Rather, "King of the Hill" was the nickname given to the prototype LT5-powered ZR1s, and one Corvette enthusiast went all the way to England to find the wrecked King of the Hill Corvette above, then proceeded to restore it.
* Remember the Nemo car from League of Extraordinary Gentlemen? One hot rodder liked the lavishly decorated six-wheeled car so much, he's started building a replica of it. The last update we see was from a couple years ago, so we have to wonder if he's made any more progress on it since then. (via)
* This Manhattan-based homebuilt, VW-chassised, canvas-bodied electric vehicle has been stumping NYC carspotters for a while, but MAKE magazine recently caught up with the builder/owner to find out more about it.
* Nissan has put its fairly sizable heritage collection online, including an entry on this Type 80 van from 1937.
* Finally, the Fiat Jolly and the Mini Riviera Buggy weren't the only such beach cars. We've previously linked to CoolBeachCars.com, and this week we also came across a Flickr page that displays the wide variety of vehicles that fit into the beach cars mold.
Four-Links – vintage Watkins Glen photos found, Z wagon revealed, '70s concepts, retractable Corvette
* When cleaning out his wife's grandfather's possessions, John Oliver came across an old Leica and plenty of vintage photographs he'd never before seen, including a batch from Watkins Glen taken in September 1956. (via)
* Datsun 240Z designer Yoshihiko Matsuo also penned a sport wagon that never got built. At least, not until recently, when Z restorer Jay Ataka built it. Japanese Nostalgic Car has more on the car and its conception.
* Ronan Glon at Ran When Parked found 10 concept cars from the Seventies that he thinks should have been built, including the 1973 NSU Trapeze above.
* Chevrolet didn't build a Corvette with a retractable hardtop, even as a concept. But GM designer Francis H. Scott did – and he built it in his living room, no less. Mac's Motor City Garage has the story on it.
* Finally, how Porsche crash-tested its 904.
Four-Links – Old Car City, correction ahead?, big GM engines, Toyota History Garage
* Earlier this year, the Sometimes Interesting blog talked with Dean Lewis, proprietor of Old Car City in Georgia, which he claims to be the world's largest (4,000-plus cars) and oldest (late 1940s) junkyard, and illustrated the story with plenty of Galen Dalrymple photos. (thanks to Dan Roth for the tip.)
Photo courtesy Bonhams.
* Rick Carey, auction editor over at Sports Car Digest, wondered aloud this week whether the collector car market was due for a severe correction that could take place as soon as this coming week, when all eyes turn to Monterey.
* GM's FastLane blog this week took a look at some of the corporation's largest engines. That 702 GMC Twin Six up there? Puny compared to some other engines mentioned in the article.
* Ronan Glon of RanWhenParked recently took in the Toyota History Garage in Tokyo, an interesting display of all sorts of cars in a less-than-expected (for Toyota, at least) setting.
* Finally, Stance Is Everything last week introduced us to the Tachyon Mini, a tube-frame, Mini-bodied, Porsche-powered hot rod.
Better, perhaps, than new – Jeffrey Mader's 1972 Datsun 240Z
Jeffrey and Susan Mader with their 1972 Datsun 240Z. Photos by author.
The Datsun Z, which debuted in the United States in 240Z form in 1970, was the first Japanese sports car that American buyers took seriously. Despite the car's popularity, few early models have survived the ravages of time, and even fewer have survived in unmodified form. Though restored on several occasions, Jeffrey Mader's 1972 Datsun 240Z is one such car; to say it looks as good as the day it rolled off the assembly line is a bit of a slight, because, quite frankly, it looks better than that.
Jeffrey's passion for the 240Z dates to his childhood, when his early sports car dreams were shaped by his father's 1970 240Z. Over the years, he admits to owning "numerous" examples, including a few that are currently mid-restoration. The star of his collection, however, is a lime green (technically, 112 Yellow) 1972 240 Z that was purchased in 2007, and served as one of the Nissan Vintage Z program cars restored by Pierre'Z Service Center in Hawthorne, California.
The Z has been a long-term part of Nissan's identity in the United States, and when rising prices and slowing sales killed the 300ZX at the end of the 1996 model year, Nissan assumed the car's absence would be temporary. An all-new Z-car would arrive in 2002, but to bridge the gap (and remind U.S. customers of Nissan's heritage), the automaker had a flash of genius: To keep the model fresh in the minds of American customers, it would offer restored 240Zs, complete with 12-month, 12,000-mile limited warranties, for sale though select Nissan dealerships in California, Texas, Florida, Georgia and Virginia.
On paper, it was a brilliant plan, but in application it was hurt by several factors. Initially, the quality of the restoration was not up to customer expectations, particularly in light of the Vintage Z's $24,950 asking price. This was addressed quickly enough, but the cost of refurbishing the cars turned out to be higher than anyone had anticipated, and even with a price increase to $27,500 the venture proved unprofitable for Nissan. While the automaker had initially discussed restoring 200 Datsun 240Zs, in the end the program rebuilt just 37 examples, including two procured by Nissan for its own collections.
Jeffrey's 1972 240Z was one of the later cars restored in the program, and thus benefits from the knowledge gained on reconstructing earlier 240Zs. Though the 2.4-liter, 151-horsepower, inline-six engine was restored by a shop in Texas as part of the original Nissan-backed program, Jeffrey had it gone through again in 2013; at the same time, the engine bay was repainted in the car's original color, though the exterior paint remains original to the car's 1999 restoration. Aside from the period-correct slotted mag wheels (a dealer installed option), the car remains in stock form, with no engine, exhaust, suspension or body modifications, and Jeffrey intends on keeping it that way. It may not be numbers-matching (Nissan made no effort to pair original engines with original chassis during the Vintage Z program), but it certainly is rust-free and in showroom condition.
Jeffrey and his wife, Susan, enjoy the car as much as their schedule allows in the spring, summer and fall, and the couple drove the 240Z to the Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car show from their home in Sudbury, Massachusetts. A friend suggested trailering it, but Jeffrey never entertained the idea for long. "What's the point of owning a car like this," he told me, "if you can't enjoy it on the road?"
A little bit of this and a little bit of that at the 2014 Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car Show
Photo by the author.
As David LaChance, editor of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car magazine, put it this past Saturday, the best thing about the annual Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car Show isn't necessarily the cars themselves, but the variety of the cars and the fact that everybody in attendance seemed to sincerely enjoy checking out cars that weren't like their own. David will have full coverage of the show in the November 2014 issue of the magazine, but for now we thought we'd showcase that variety with some of our initial photoimpressions from the show.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1975 Toyota Celica GT notchback
Toyota's Celica, launched in the U.S. market for the 1971 model year, was accused of borrowing heavily from the Ford Mustang's styling playbook. Like the Mustang, the Celica used a three-bar taillamp arrangement, a familiar C-pillar shape and a prominent hood with a recessed grille. Unlike the Mustang, however, the smaller and lighter Celica was available only with four-cylinder power, which relegated it to the category of "sporty car." Most were viewed by successive owners as disposable transportation, which makes this 1975 Toyota Celica GT notchback, for sale on Hemmings.com, something of a rare find. It's been modified from stock form over the years, and it now sports a replacement engine, a new interior, later Celica Supra wheels, an aftermarket audio system and Japanese-market fender mirrors. As one would expect from an import of this vintage, there are rust spots and bubbles, but the current owner describes these as cosmetic, not structural. As a weekend driver, this appears to be a fun car for those raised on Japanese imports, or it could serve as a decent starting point for a full restoration to stock trim. From the seller's description:
1975 Toyota Celica GT Notchback, It comes equipped with the original 5 speed manual transmission and newer Toyota 20r engine. The chassis has 46,141 miles on it, but that may increase slightly as I do drive the car occasionally. The engine is not the original unit, but according to the previous owner it was installed with only 10,000 or so miles. I cannot, unfortunately verify that. The interior has been redone, again by the previous owner, in a white/beige leather combo that looks rather nice combined with the non-original metallic blue paint. The Celica is equipped with air conditioning, which has been recently filled and runs very cold. As you can tell, it is not entirely original. Here is a list of modifications and upgrades that differentiate it from a vanilla Celica GT:
- Wheels from a 2nd Generation Celica Supra. The rubber still has a great deal of life left in it. No wear spots.
- An aftermarket stereo system, with a stealthed radio occupying the space where the original unit once was. It has two speakers under the dash, on passenger and driver sides (thankfully the door cards were not cut), two on the back package tray, a rather large subwoofer in the trunk, and a decent amplifier. It works well enough, and has an input for an mp3 player. Unfortunately the antennae is disconnected, so radio reception isn't the best.
- A rear window louver. This may be a matter of taste. I'm personally rather fond of the funky 70′s charm, and it doesn't inhibit the rear view at all. Though it is a bit worn and the paint may be flaking off.
- JDM spec fender mirrors. One of the most unique features of the car, not original for the U.S. market. Again, just part of the charm. They work rather well, although adjustments may require two people.
- A front chin spoiler, body color. Made of fiberglass (?), and matching ducktail spoiler.
- Yellow high-beams and added fog lights, with interior switch.
- Full Flowmaster exhaust with Summit catalytic converter.
- K&N air filter to match with Aisan carburetor.
- A locking gas cap.
Most of these changes were made to suit the taste of the previous owner, except the K&N air filter, and the yellow high-beams. It may not be in everyone's taste (understatement), but keep in mind that any or all of these things could be changed.
Now for the bad. As with most vintage cars in driver condition, there are some issues. Luckily, they are almost all cosmetic.
- The most apparent issue will be the rust. Considering the reputation that this vintage of Japanese cars has for rusting, it is in surprisingly good shape. There is only one hole, and that is in the passenger's front wheel well. It is about 2 inches across, and certainly not structural. The otherwise lovely paint is marred by a number of bubbles, some in groups. None of them compromise the body shell, and are probably the result of pinhole rust covered by a less than perfect paint application. On the underside of the driver and passenger door sills, there are some small rust holes.
- The headers are rusted. There are no holes in them, but they don't look so good compared to the newer engine and exhaust. Consider replacing.
- There is a small chip in the windshield, passenger side. It hasn't gone all the way through the glass, nor has it splintered outward.
- There is a dent in the rear bumper.
- The rear spoiler has some paint issues on the trailing edge.
- The driver's seat belt is frayed, but functional.
- When the interior was redone, whoever did the work screwed up the leather on the driver's side b-pillar. It's not discolored, but a bit misshapen.
Here is a list of things that were repaired since purchase:
- A new alternator was installed, as the old unit died. Driving without headlights at night is an experience I hope to never have again.
- The tubing leading from the radiator to the engine had a leak. Subsequently replace all tubing.
- A new oil filter was installed.
As you can see, most of the work this car would need is cosmetic. It is entirely mechanically sound. The engine pulls hard through the gears (be prepared for the 5100 rpm redline), it shifts smoothly, and in fifth gear cruises nicely at 75 mph. Despite the relatively low 110 horsepower, its light weight and tall fifth gear give it a top speed of 105. It may be an old car, but it has the resources to be a comfortable and fun daily driver. Slow cars driven quickly are a blast.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1982 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser
As owners will remember, there was nothing luxurious about the FJ40 series Toyota Land Cruiser. Built for function over form or comfort, these utilitarian off-road vehicles were noisy and punishing to drive on road and possessed a thirst for gasoline most often associated with muscle cars. Those flaws aside, FJ40s were capable off-road and reliable enough to provide owners with decades worth of service (at least until the tin worm attacked in earnest). This 1982 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser for sale on Hemmings.com will need a bit of rust remediation and perhaps a fresh coat of paint (on the hood and gas cap door, anyway), but it's presented as a one-owner truck complete with its original (and rare) air conditioning and power steering. From the seller's description:
Runs perfectly has it did the day it was purchased. Everything works, lights, fans, switches ect…..
Original Owner, Original Title, Original Window Sticker, Original Dealer Receipt of Payment, Original Toyota AM/FM Cassette, Original Owners Manual, Original Paint, Original Power Steering, Original Air Condition, Original Catalytic Converter and exhaust
Rumor has it that only 300 FJ"s entered the US in 1982 which was the end of the legacy. To have a truck like this in this condition is remarkable. This truck has never been apart at all. Top has never been removed. The amount of trucks that had factory air along with factory power steering was a handful. The body and frame are rust free! Dealer sticker is still on the rear door sill.
From the pictures you can tell the paint has faded off the hood. From stone chips over the last 32 years the front of the hood (rust) needs to be addressed. Also, the gas door paint is off as well from keys rubbing while locking and unlocking the fuel door. I did not want to have anything repainted. It is too easy to assume something was being hidden. There are no surprises here. This is a very rare opportunity to own an original condition example of the rarest FJ40 model in existence. There are a many that have been "restored" and put back together, but they are only original once!
Remember this is not a show truck, this is a well preserved 32 year old Toyota.

Miatas to gather at Laguna Seca for 25th anniversary
Mazda North America's heritage collection. Photos courtesy Mazda North America.
When Miata fans from around the world gather at Laguna Seca on September 5 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the iconic Japanese roadster, the goal is to set a record for the highest number of Miatas gathered on track at one time. Breaking such a record would be a fitting way to set the stage for another key event: Mazda will be introducing the fourth-generation Miata at this year's gathering.
In 2009, Miatas at MRLS (Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca) debuted to honor the iconic Japanese roadster's 20th birthday. The event proved so popular that additional Miatas at Mazda Raceway meets were held in 2010, 2012 and 2013, and the gathering has grown in scope to include car shows, seminars, driving tours, a vendor alley, track days and even professional all-Miata racing. Thanks to Mazda's participation in this year's event, it's free to participate in all events that don't involve high-speed, on-track driving.
Organizers are looking to shatter the existing world record for the longest all-Miata parade (which involved 683 cars at the 2013 MAX-5 event in the Netherlands), not just break it. The goal is to get 1,600 MX-5s on parade for a new record, which requires more than a minor amount of preparation and advanced planning. Staging of the photograph will begin at noon, and if all goes as planned, helicopters and drones will photograph the cars by 5 p.m., followed by a free barbeque for attendees and participants. The record attempt is open to Miatas of any generation, but those wearing aftermarket body kits that significantly change the appearance of the car are excluded. To date, participants have registered 1,175 cars for this year's event, meaning that the record will almost certainly fall.
The chassis of the 2016 MX-5.
Mazda has also chosen the 2014 Miatas at Mazda Raceway celebration for the North American debut of the 2016 MX-5, and the car will debut simultaneously at events in Japan and Spain. The automaker will also bring its rolling showcase of heritage, concept and racing Miatas, as seen at this year's New York Auto Show, where the chassis of the next-generation MX-5 was prominently displayed.
Miatas at Mazda Raceway will take place September 5-7 at Laguna Seca in
Salinas Monterey, California. Advance registration is required to attend, and compete details can be found at MiatasAtMazdaRaceway.com.

Why You Should Attend
The post-recession economic landscape and the emergence of new business and financial centers around the globe continue to confront the accounting profession with new challenges:
a renewed emphasis by the Securities and Exchange Commission on accounting fraud through the formation of a dedicated working group and the employment of new, data driven tools to ferret out signs of fraudulent financial reporting
a proposal for major revisions to the decades-old form of auditors' report for publicly-traded companies that would detail the handling of critical issues arising in the course of the audit
the emergence of simplified financial reporting of certain transactions for small and medium-sized privately-held companies
continuing issues with financial reporting by foreign entities and regulatory actions against auditors of companies located in countries that restrict access to auditor work papers
an enduring focus by the regulators on auditor independence, including in connection with the performance of non-audit services

Program Schedule
7:30 a.m. Registration and Continental Breakfast
8:25 a.m. Welcome and Announcements - ALI CLE Staff
Webcast Segment A
8:30 a.m. Current Developments and Course Overview - Mr. Eickemeyer
A review of this year's regulatory, litigation and business trends affecting the accounting profession and an introduction to the in-depth explorations of the program.
9:00 a.m. Keynote Address
Barry C. Melancon, President and CEO, AICPA, Washington, D.C.
9:45 a.m. Networking and Refreshment Break, sponsored by McGladrey LLP
10:00 a.m. The PCAOB's Perspective - Mr. Modesti and Mss. Armstrong and Preheim
The PCAOB director and deputy director of enforcement address the latest developments in the PCAOB's inspection and enforcement efforts with respect to both domestic and foreign audits and auditors.
10:45 a.m. Independence Issues - Messrs. Hauben , Hubbell, and Husich, and Ms. Rudolph
Independence is a core audit concept and is always a hot topic for regulators and litigants. This segment explores the issues that arise in the independence arena, the regulators' response, recommended preventive strategies, new AICPA standards, as well as the PCAOB and SEC standards applicable to public companies. The panel will consider implications of recent actions by the SEC and PCAOB against auditors in the broker-dealer and public company contexts.
11:30 a.m. Auditing and Accounting Issues and Substantive Defense Strategies in SEC and PCAOB Proceedings - Messrs. Cutler, S.Schreiber, Sorgen, and Waldon and Ms. Koenigs
Representing an accountant, and understanding the regulator's focus, in a SEC or PCAOB investigation calls for different skills and tactics than private litigation, because your adversary can also be the judge and jury. Practitioners, SEC and PCAOB personnel discuss key substantive accounting and auditing issues likely to dominate enforcement proceedings, initiatives and investigations this year. The faculty will also analyze effective defense and negotiation strategies, as well as trial considerations.
12:30 p.m. Networking lunch (provided)
Webcast Segment B
Litigating an Accountants' Liability Case: Hear from Plaintiff and Defense Counsel
Panels composed of experienced plaintiffs' attorneys and defense counsel offer practical advice on litigating an accountants' liability case, including motion practice; discovery strategies; electronic discovery issues; trial themes; motions in limine; witness selection and preparation; presenting accounting issues to a jury; the use of technology; and opening and closing statements.
1:45 p.m. Plaintiffs' Panel - Messrs. Dumain, Mr. Olts, and Sommers
2:30 p.m. Defense Panel - Mss. Cave and Coberly and Mr. Hubbell

4:15 p.m. Damages and Causation - Messrs. Dropkin, Kleidon, and Olts
An otherwise strong case will end badly without well-founded and clearly articulated causation and damages theories. The most effective defense is often a demonstration of the lack of proximate cause or damages with strong factual or statistical foundation. This session discusses the latest case law on these critical issues and the economic underpinnings of causation and damages theories and defenses.
5:00 p.m. Maximizing the Value of Testifying and Consulting Experts - Messrs. Eickemeyer and Love
Expert witnesses are a critical to an accountants' liability case. This segment centers on making the most of expert engagements and emphasizes how experts can contribute to every litigation phase.

7:30 a.m. Networking Session and Continental Breakfast

Client demands, budget constraints, and regulatory changes bring new challenges for accounting firms and their in-house counsel.

8:45 a.m.SEC and the Profession - Messrs. Mejia, Mixter, Woodcock and Zubairi and Ms.Rendón
With the formation last year of a Financial Reporting Task Force, the SEC's Division of Enforcement has signaled renewed interest in accounting matters. Current enforcement initiatives and trends will be discussed.
9:45 a.m. Developments on the Horizon - Messrs. Cheffers and Kueppers
Analysis of audit-based litigation trends can offer guidance on future risks and how to avoid them. This crucial segment examines recent case filings data, restatements, settlements and other developments of interest to both sides of the table. The implications of this data for accounting professionals, regulators, standards-setters and counsel are also considered.
10:30 a.m. Networking and Refreshment Break
10:45 a.m. The SEC's Whistleblower Program: Implications for Accounting Firms - Mss. Papez and Rendón and Mr. Morris
The SEC's Whistleblower program has momentum, presenting significant implications for accounting firms. We will report on the status of this still-new law and the SEC's program. The relationship between whistleblower law and auditor obligations under Section 10A, and otherwise, will be analyzed. We also will address what firms can do today to protect themselves.
11:45 a.m. Accounting Risks and Exposures in the International Arena - Messrs. Block, Roberts, Ruthberg, and S.Schreiber
International accounting firms face many challenges in the United States. This panel addresses the most pressing issues for them and the unique aspects of working with international firms, domestically and internationally. This session also discusses the SEC Administrative Judge's decision-now under appeal-imposing a bar on the China firms of the major accounting networks from auditing US companies.
12:45 p.m. Lunch on your own
Webcast Segment D
2:00 p.m.Data Security in the Accounting Industry: Identifying and Minimizing Risks - Messrs. Osinoff, Schreiber and Univer
Target and Niemen Marcus are recent data theft victims. While many perceive data security as a retailer concern, those in the accounting industry realize the need to ensure the proper precautions are taken to secure client data, as well as their own to avoid the hefty fines and potential litigation arising out of a data breach. This session explores vulnerabilities, due diligence standards, disclosure obligations, criminal sanctions and more!
2:45 p.m. Non - Public Company Accounting Litigation - Messrs. Eickemeyer and Herzog
While cases involving public company audits grab the headlines, the majority of cases against accountants involve privately-held companies and governmental or not-for-profit entities. These clients pose different challenges for their accountants than do public companies – and different problems for the attorneys who defend them, both of which will be discussed. This panel also addresses simplified reporting for smaller companies and the potential liability it presents.
3:15 p.m. Networking and Refreshment Break
3:30 p.m.Privilege, Internal Investigations, & Employee Discipline: The Ethical Trifecta - Mr. Berger
Something went wrong. A mistake was made, now requiring internal investigations and employee discipline. Yet, the threat of liability is on the horizon and privilege must be maintained. This session explorers this conundrum, while sharing strategies to help maintain privilege, as you march forward.
4:30 p.m. Adjournment
Total 60-minute hours of instruction: 14.5 hours, including 1 hour of ethics

Phillip Roth Reveals "I'm Done" With Writing
In today's New York Times Artsbeat Blog, legendary author Philip Roth revealed that he will no longer be in the business of penning novels. The 79-year-old made the comment in a recent interview with the French magazine Les inRocks. Referring to his latest work, he told the magazine, "To tell you the truth, I'm done. "'Nemesis' will be my last book."
He added, "I do not want to read, to write more. I have dedicated my life to the novel: I studied, I taught, I wrote and I read. With the exclusion of almost everything else. Enough is enough! I no longer feel this fanaticism to write that I have experienced in my life."
Roth gained fame with the 1959 novella Goodbye, Columbus, an irreverent and humorous portrait of American-Jewish life that earned him the U.S. National Book Award for Fiction. In 1969 he became a major celebrity with the publication of the controversial Portnoy's Complaint.
Roth has been one of the most honored authors of his generation: his books have twice been awarded the National Book Award, twice the National Book Critics Circle award, and three times the PEN/Faulkner Award. He received a Pulitzer Prize for his 1997 novel, American Pastoral, which featured one of his best-known characters, Nathan Zuckerman, the subject of many other of Roth's novels. His 2000 novel The Human Stain, another Zuckerman novel, was awarded the United Kingdom's WH Smith Literary Award for the best book of the year.

With Bong Joon-ho's Snowpiercer, Park Chan-wook's Stoker and Kim Ji-woon's The Last Stand they are three very different projects and only time will tell if they had a favorable experience in Hollywood and will want to stay, but today we've got news on one that will be headed home.
Kim Ji-woon, who has directed one of Hollywood's biggest action stars, Arnold Schwarzenegger, in The Last Stand, is reportedly booking a plane ticket back to his homeland. According to new reports, the talented director and jumped on a live-action adaptation of Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade, from writer Oshii Mamoru (Ghost in the Shell) and director Okiura Hiroyuki (A Letter To Momo).
Debuting in 1999, this twist on the Red Riding Hood story takes place in a "parallel reality in which the Nazis won World War II and Japan now exists as an oppressive military state patrolled by heavily armored state police, one of whom builds a relationship with a young girl who is part of a violent protest movement." It sounds like a fascinating story and one that will likely have more weight to it than his Hollywood debut. For those that want to get a glimpse, check out the full original feature below thanks to YouTube, as Kim Ji-Woon plans his take, titled Inrang. [Twitch]

Data provider, The Trading Floor, is targeting dealers that want to locate customers that qualify for the UK scrappage scheme.
The Trading Floor says it has data about the motor insurance requirements of two million motorists that could potentially take advantage of the scheme.
A spokesman for The Trading Floor said: "We already supply transactional data to many leading car manufacturers, insurers and motor dealers.
"We hold details about people's preferred contact channels, whether it's post, telephone, email or SMS, which further maximises the chances of a marketing campaign being a success."
The Trading Floor said dealers can use the information to define customers from postcodes, current vehicle type, length of time they've owned the vehicle, income, purchasing cycles and the number of family members.

Foie Gras? Loopholes in the law? [moved from San Diego board]
- Dagney Jun 21, 2012 09:05 PM
So....apparently it's only illegal to sell it. Does that mean we can still get it "free" with other menu items that will cost about the same as a foie gras dish? This law is such bs. Not to get off topic, but I am so over this tell-me-what-to-eat nonsense. If anyone needs me I'll be in the kitchen with some TRANS FATS.
There are a number of possibilities how foie gras will be also available in restaurants in the future including the "free" version. Just google it and you will find some suggestions how to work around the law
As the clock strikes Midnight on June 30th, many restaurants on the "Left Coast," are working with "foie gras" special meals.
I have this feeling, that anyone, who wishes foie gras will be killed, though the same folk will never recommend that for serial murderers. Same for large soft drinks in NYC?
I'm not a legislator or lawyer, but I believe the backers of this piece of legislation foresaw people trying to use loopholes, so it's worded more generally so as to prohibit the SERVING of the liver of any bird which is overfed purposefully so as to increase its liver size.
The word "serving" includes free portions.
re: J.L.
What if there was a buffet table of foie gras and it was "self-serve"?
In all seriousness, the law will not be enforced in CA -- either by law enforcement for PETA-type organizations.
Plus, it is only illegal to sell foie gras produced in CA -- not the foie imported from out-of-state, and it is certainly not illegal to possess such imported foie.
re: ipsedixit
What, there will be no "Bird Liver Police" force?!
Envisioning Eliot Ness deputizing a whole new breed of gastronomic cops, trained to bust foie gras speakeasies all over our fair metropolis...
re: Tripeler
Was thinking the same thing -- a sketch about foie narcs by some Bay Area-based comedy troupe. They confiscate the "goods" but back in the squad car have a George Forman grill hot-wired into the cigarette lighter for cooking and chilled Sauternes in the cooler.
re: maria lorraine
Hey, in SF, a fine cigar is evil and is reason to have one banished to the "outer regions," but if you are toking a doobie, regardless of what your witch doctor has prescribed, you are OK.
Nah, though I have to be in that "odd city by the bay," I just pay zero attention, and just dine elsewhere on this globe. Such is life.
re: Bill Hunt
who thinks a fine cigar is evil? i know people who smoke 'em here, and they co-exist just fine with the pot-smokers.
and you'd have to pay some amount of attention to know that there is a ban here - and um, not just here, but in all of CA.
re: ipsedixit
I asked Hudson Valley a short while back if they would ship their stuff to private customers in California and they said they would not but are working on it. They filed suit (with two others) in CA immediately after the ban went into effect. (I believe you would have read that other thread as you posted there after your post here. This is for others reading this thread.) (http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/8564...)
re: J.L.
where is the word "serving"?
Well, we made many of the "pre-foie gras" events, but missed many too.
I just dine elsewhere, and do not look back.
Sorry that some of my favorite chefs in the CA-area cannot legally serve it, but such is life.
I only have to deal with it, about 1 - 4x per month, but luckily get to travel to other environs.
Here we go!!!
I'm not a lawyer but the law (linked above) does say that the product may not be sold in California. So this could turn on where 'title' to the foie gras changes hands. A restaurant can't legally buy it in California, but can they buy it out of state and serve it within California?
Some lawyers are going to have fun with this.
re: Midlife
The first fun argument that comes to mind is what technically constitutes the act of "serving." Could a server carry a plate of foie gras to a table on a tray, set the tray on a stand, and then leave? Allowing the guest to pick up the plate on his/her own?
This whole thing is so annoying and just smacks of overt government control. Who is going to enforce this law? I work in law enforcement and I can tell you we will have NOTHING to do with this petty bs.
re: Dagney
Well............ the law says nothing at all about "serving"............. just SELLING. I doubt that serving will find a home in the legal playground, but lawyers will be lawyers, so maybe.
re: Dagney
<<Who is going to enforce this law?>>
I would anticipate that CA has hired a bunch of IRS agents, on their "off time," to patrol every restaurant, to enforce the law. I would also imagine that CA will do a Web site, encouraging everyone to "turn in any restaurant, or patron, which/who does not adhere to our edict... " Hey, that worked well for Adolph Hitler, only 80 years ago.
I will just not worry, on my once to twice monthly SF trips. I will get my "fix" elsewhere.
re: Bill Hunt
It's already well known and settled that this law is not going to be enforced. By anyone.
re: Bill Hunt
Wow, I didn't realize the state coffers overfloweth so...
re: PotatoHouse
It comes free with and 30$ order of Brioche toast and Rhubarb Gastric !
re: Dagney
I sure hope so. I think that was what was happening in Chitown.
