Ex-Soviet engines fingered after Antares ROCKET launch BLAST
Re: Depressing
Designing rocket engines is hard. VERY hard. You have to mix very a very volatile fuel and oxidizer in the combustion chamber thoroughly to ensure complete combustion. And, you have to do this at some rather incredible temperatures, temperatures which are very close to the melting point of even the most refractory materials. And, these refractory materials have to withstand some fairly high pressures, and are subjected to extreme temperature changes. Plus, the chamber material has to withstand both fuel and oxidizer materials without reacting to either one. Now, couple this design with the fact that the fluid dynamics of rocket chamber combustion isn't a well understood science (definitely not well enough to adequately computer model), and the fact that instabilities can build up such that the combustion process goes non-linear and starts to pulse or vibrate, which can stress those refractory materials well beyond their limits, and the end result is that it's VERY hard to design a new rocket engine. Furthermore, rocket engine designs don't necessarily scale very well, which means that the only way to design a new rocket engine is to build a full size model and empirically test it. But, even static testing can't try all of the conditions that a rocket engine will encounter during its flight. So, it's not too surprising that even a tried and proven 50 year old design may encounter some conditions which cause it to go BOOM in a most unpleasant way. :-/ Rocket science is HARD.

Blame WWI, not Bin Laden, for NSA's post-9/11 intel suck
Any discussion of the Espionage Act of 1917 should also include the Sedition Act of 1918 (which was really just a modification of the Espionage Act of 1917). That made certain types of speech illegal. Somewhat surprisingly, it was upheld by the Supreme Court, although some subsequent decisions make it unlikely that it would be used again.
Cunning Reg reader cracks LOHAN hot coupling condundrum
Conductive Grease
The conductive grease sounds like a good idea. Note that Copper oxidizes, producing Copper Oxide (I or II), which is either non-conductive, or a semiconductor. The conductive grease should prevent the oxidation. One could also get fancy and Silver plate the interior of the Copper tubes (Silver Oxide is a conductor); consider some of the electroless Silver plating solutions, which will deposit a few Angstroms of Silver (Cool-Amp is one maker (I have no connection, etc.).).
You might also consider ensuring that the end of the Copper tube has a slight flare to it, or, at least, is deburred. Cutting Copper tubing tends to produce a burr, or slight squeezing of the tube at the cut point, and, if you're counting on a dependable release, you don't want anything binding at the end of the Copper tube.
You could also consider some type of spring contact that would be inserted in the Copper tube. I'm thinking of something along the lines of a piece of Beryllium Copper that is folded and soldered to the wire.
Good luck with it!
P.S. Remember that any landing you can walk away from it a success.
Anonymous develops secure data over ham radio scheme
47CFR97.113(4) still prohibits encrypted communications on the amateur radio bands in the US:
"(4) Music using a phone emission except as specifically provided elsewhere in this section; communications intended to facilitate a criminal act; messages encoded for the purpose of obscuring their meaning, except as otherwise provided herein; obscene or indecent words or language; or false or deceptive messages, signals or identification."
Thus, anyone using encrypted communications would quickly find their connection dropped (if they were using someone else's node), or would be quickly triangulated and reported. Amateur radio operators are VERY protective of their bands and privileges.
Now, it might be possible to use some of these techniques on some of the ISM bands (47CFR18):
or, maybe even using the limitations in Part 15 (47CRF15):
And, of course, they could definitely be used up in the "uncontrolled" RF spectrum space (which is most of the way up to infrared now).
However, some of the things they'll be fighting are, with conventional radio equipment, they'll either be seriously limited to their data rate (2400 bits per second for unmodified VHF/UHF radio equipment, closer to 300 bits per second for unmodified HF radio equipment). Or, they'll be seriously limited in their range (for VHF/UHF/microwave/infrared bands). There's a bit of trade-off involving data rate and distance/power; for example, some of the QRSS techniques allow for minimal power for extreme distances, but at the expense of data rate (1 bit per second or less?).
Still, I think they're thinking that radio equipment can't be easily located, which is obviously false. Foxhunts (e.g., searches for hidden radio transmitters) typically take less than 30 minutes for a well trained team (and, there are a LOT of well trained teams out there). Even mobile transmitters can be pretty quickly located. I've seen some amateur automated bearing location equipment which will provide the bearing to a signal in well under one second (which allows for a dynamic, real time bearing, even for a moving transmitter).
Plus, there's a technique of performing "RF fingerprinting" of a transmitter's output that allows it to be uniquely identified (e.g., signal rise time, quiesce time, noise characteristics, etc.). Heck, for that matter, there has even been quite a few successes locating receivers, via their local oscillator radiation (e.g., British TV locator vans, radar-detector-detectors, etc.).
Thus, before Anonymous puts too much credence in this approach, I think they need to do a bit more research of just how many holes there are in it. Yeah, tracking down such an RF link may require that some people get out of their easy chair to locate them, but it's certainly possible (and, when you make those bureaucrats get out of their easy chairs, well, they're not going to be happy!). ;-)
Oh, yeah, ditto the comments about the US$10,000 fines, per day, for unlicensed radio signals. I saw a news article just yesterday where the FCC imposed a US$46,000 fine for a violation. You REALLY don't want to get them mad at you!

Recycling bottles
Ah, yes, recycling bottles. It they were serious about that, then they'd make bottles with a 12 inch opening instead of those little half-inch openings. After all, it's devilishly difficult to hit a half-inch opening to refill them after you've consumed the contents. ;-)

Re: Yeah, right
More information on fusors can be found here:
And, agreed on the availability of Deuterium. It used to be pretty common for physics students to make ice from heavy water (Deuterium Oxide) to put in drinks. The Deuterium, being slightly heavier than Hydrogen, causes the ice cubes made from it to sink rather than float (And, no, I don't think I'd drink one of those drinks, although several people have. And, there's some evidence that a slight concentration of Deuterium may actually help memory, although too much of it may be fatal.).
P.S. I'll get my coat. It's the one with the heavy ice cubes in the pocket.
Facebook: We want a solar sky cruiser comms net that DARPA couldn't build
Why? The whole premiss of Facebook is based on advertising. But, who wants to advertise to a civilization that doesn't have any money to spend on the advertised products?
Or, maybe the advertising isn't about physical products, but ideology? Oh, sure, that'll go over well when the advertising prompts the next revolution. How long until some administration starts buying obsolete microwave ovens, removing the doors/interlocks, and starts beaming interference up to those planes? :-(
Plus, what happens when the batteries on one of those birds deteriorates just a bit, and allows it to drop down into a commercial air traffic corridor, taking down a commercial airliner in the process? Can you say "Liability"? I bet there are a LOT of lawyers that can! US$60M? That'll be a drop in the bucket when the suits are finally settled.
BOFH: Is WHAT 'running slow'!? GOD
Decades ago, our group moved into a set of temporary trailers, while a building was being renovated for us. A year and a half into the six month stint in the trailers, I was able to upgrade my office from an interior office to an office with a window, and <gasp> a thermostat. No more suffering from a horribly cold or a horribly hot office (usually at different points during the same day). Life was good...for about two hours. Then, the endless stream of people along the same duct started showing up, complaining that their office was too hot/cold, and could I please increase/decrease the thermostat. I finally decided that the best way to handle this was to let them fight it out outside my office door (and, make a small fortune selling tickets to the fights!). Eventually, we were moved out of the temporary trailers (We were only in them for about 6.5 years of the six month period.), and, as they were demolishing the trailers (or, should I say, finishing demolishing them, since they were pretty well demolished by the time we moved out of them anyway), they discovered that the heating duct attached to the heat-pump controlled by the thermostat on my office wall had never been attached to anything!
P.S. True story!

Facebook throws servers on their back in HOT TUBS of OIL
For a better approach, why not use Ethanol and Dry Ice? (And, if things get too bad, the techies can resort to drinking the coolant!). Note that this isn't unprecedented (Err, the Ethanol and Dry Ice, not necessarily the techies drinking it, although that has been known to happen, too!).
There are some mainframe manufacturers who have resorted to using Helium as a cooling agent (e.g., "TCM"). Plus, there has been some work done on using Liquid Nitrogen immersion as a cooling agent for overclocked systems.
Large electrical generators are frequently cooled by Hydrogen gas (It has a low viscosity, so as to not interfere too much with the rotating components, and conducts heat well. Of course, one has to have a very good seal on the bearings, else one runs the risk of the "Hindenberg Effect".).

Facebook reassures adland: We've got s**tloads of users

Burger-rage horse dumps on McDonald's: Rider saddled with fat fine
Interesting comments, but maybe I can shed some enlightenment.
Note that most drive-through order systems require some way of sensing that a car is present (else the order taker has to listen constantly to noise in their headset). That may be via a magnetic loop sensor in the pavement. These are notorious for not sensing smaller vehicles, such as bicycles, motorcycles, and horses, as well as pedestrians.
As for taking a horse inside a McDonalds, there are usually (health department) restrictions that only service animals may enter. However, horses can be service animals!
P.S. I'll get my coat, it's the western style duster, with big pockets that I can fill with burgers while riding my horse.
PRISM scandal: Brit spooks operated within the law, say politicos
I always seem to get those terms, inside and outside, mixed up. After all, it's easy to get confused. Which side of the line am I standing on? Is that the inside or the outside? Isn't it all relative?
P.S. I also have trouble with the concept of left and right. Maybe that's why I had such trouble in kindergarten? ;-) I ought to be a shoe-in for a job with an intelligence agency!
P.P.S. I'll get my coat. It's the one that's inside-out (or, is that outside-in?).

I happened to be unaware of this fact, and, while driving through Greencastle one night, almost ran off the street from the amazement of seeing it!
V1 Flipping
I seem to remember that one technique for bringing down V1s was for a pilot to edge his plane close to one, and insert a wing under the V1's wing, and flip it. Apparently, the control system in the V1s wasn't able to cope with the device becoming inverted.

Pyongyang to unleash NUKULAR horsemen of the Norkocalypse?
Nuclear EMP
The scariest scenario may be that NK mounts one of their nukes on one of their missiles, and flies it well over SK or Japan, whereupon they detonate the nuke, causing a nuclear EMP. Given the electronics in both SK and Japan, such an EMP could do an INCREDIBLE amount of damage. :-( Plus, it wouldn't be a direct strike, nor would their be any direct casualties. That could create a bit of a political nightmare, since there's no equivalent retaliation in kind (An EMP doesn't damage a 15th century feudal society.). Plus, if NK spouts off that it was a nuclear reactor powered satellite that only exploded because SK/Japan/USA shot it with a missile...

As for the screen burn-in problems, that's mostly to do with sputtering of the electrodes by the electron/ion current in a plasma display (And, there was a similar burn-in problem for certain monochrome CRTs, caused by the electron beam, for a static image, burning the phosphor coating.). That shouldn't be a problem for lasers, at least as long as they don't go with an ultraviolet laser, which could cause some burn issues (Ohoh, did I just ruin someone else's patent application?).
Or, use a ultraviolet laser, and paint a phosphorescent strip on your arm, allowing the laser to make the phosphorescent area glow/fluoresce, seemingly by magic. Perhaps image this with a optically filtered camera (on the other side of the glasses?) to perform the detection. (Ohoh, another idea publicly disclosed?).

Bagis slams Greek Cypriot ambassador to Ireland in Dublin

Turkey's EU Minister and Chief Negotiator Egemen Bagis yesterday made a speech on the new difficulties faced by Europe and Turkey at the Institute of International and European Affairs (IIEA) in Dublin, Ireland.
In his speech, Bagis said that Ireland's EU term presidency to start as of January 1, 2013 would be a historical turning point in regard to Turkey's relations with the EU.
During a question and answer session following his speech, Greek Cypriot Ambassador to Ireland Michalis Stavrinos told Bagis that Turkey should implement the Ankara Agreement and its Additional Protocol. Bagis responded by asking Stavrinos which part of Cyprus he was from.
Bagis then reiterated that Turkish Cypriots voted in favor of a UN plan to reunite the island in 2004, while Greek Cypriots had rejected it. "Take good note of what I said and convey it to your government. You have to honor your commitments first. Tell your government to quit its silly policies," Bagis said.

I agree with you. If you look across these boards here at Style Forum there are many very specific threads which come and go and are often repeated over time. Nothing against that.
As you say any new thread should avoid skinhead in the title these days.
I am happy to give a list of what I wear now that harks back to the Day and where I get it.
Sadly ALL youth cults get there looks withered down with age - look at all those fat 40 something casuals in JD sports reissues and Dallas Tachinni tops infecting high streets nationwide - theres a look that was popular for barely 18 months in a style thats lasted since 79 till today .. same with 'skinhead ' - boots braces , rolled up jeans and check shirt .... the poor old Teds got it even worse with the sharp early 50s 'Edwardians ' loosing out to cartoon teds in cheap drapes and bad brothel creepers ...

The fella in the light Mac is a very smart dresser.Around `65 I had my hair in a similar Style.
flyfronted. I agree,i never liked Teds but that original Edwardian jacket i always thought looked smart.Remember the 70s tv programme Upstairs downstairs ? i thought that the rich upstairs men dressed very smart ( Edwardians ).Like the early Mods dressing sharp,all people remember about Mods now is parkas and scooters,the less said about the " mod revival " the better IMO cheapo clothes and t shirts with targets on.
Always thought Teds were the first to go to a Tailor, and tell them the length of sleeve etc.Before that you copied your Father.

Great Documentary with a lot of footage i've never seen before,and being an ardent Faces follower,i've seen most of it I believe.The early live interviews in Richmond and Archway were a treat.Shame that Mac was not included,seeing as how Woody and Kenny Jones made it in there?
Im a big Rod/Faces fan, like yerselfs i found the early footage of him fascinating, did his old fella say he had 2000 shirts or was it 200?
The interview with him and Britt in the back of the motor was funny, his face said it all when questioned re the Susan george incident.
Rods haircut was the first i ever asked for, it looked good when i came out the stylists, im afraid mother hadn't quite grasped blow drying, probably why i look so miserable

There were some who had the "Mohican"about in `69/`70.I know because one of our rival Mobs used to have a few with that haircut.It did not last too long though.
Like this kind of thing?
That's quite a shocking style statement for them days. I would have thought when Taxi Driver came out (Feb 76) it would have been pretty controversial. I'd imagine a good haircut to get you into a fight but a bad one to get you into a club ..... or a job ...... (or a bird!)
Interesting, how did these rival mob with mohicans dress? Did they dress smart or ivy-like? Or would you see them walk around in bomber jackets?

|Church of St. Thomas the Apostle
Saint Thomas Church, Sandor-Saloli
|St. Thomas the Apostle
|22 May 1998 Diocese of Vasai
|Provost and rector
|Very Rev Fr. Francis D'Britto
Sandor(* 19°22′00″N 72°48′15″E / 19.366539°N 72.804165°ECoordinates: 19°22′00″N 72°48′15″E / 19.366539°N 72.804165°E ) is a village in the Vasai-Virar region of the historic Lata region of the North Konkan, located in the District of Thane in Maharashtra state, India. The natives of Sandor are predominantly Catholics who converted with the arrival of Portuguese in the region, although there had also been some Nestorians descended from converts made by the Apostles, St. Thomas the Apostle and Bartholomeo the Apostle.
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (January 2013)
The natives of the Vasai region are predominantly people whose culture derives from a composite of the Konkani substrate, overlaid by the Portuguese, Marathi and British rulers. The Sandorians are predominantly of the Vadval sub-ethnic group, and speak the Vadval dialect, which is considered by the government as a dialect of Marathi, although this view is disputed.
Following the conversions of 1564, a Portuguese noblewoman,Donna Irina, had a chapel, Our Lady of Help (Nossa Senhora da Ajuda) built in the village for the converts. The first mass was held in this chapel on 11 November 1566 by the Jesuit missionaries. A Sandorian tradition states that St. Gonsalo Garcia, martyred by the Buddhists in Japan, was present as a young boy at the foundation laying ceremony of the chapel.
The chapel was renamed after St. Thomas the Apostle, when in 1565, his picture was brought from the fort and enshrined in the chapel. It seems that sometime or the other a new church was built a little further towards the north occupying the actual site on which the present edifice stands. The church was destroyed by Muslim Arab invaders from Gujarat in 1571, and was reconstructed in 1573.
Fr. Pedro de Almeida S.J., was appointed the 'Pai dos Cristaos' for 1574–1576, with charge of the Christians of Sandor and Papdy parishes.
In 1679, Arabs from Gujarat once again attacked and damaged the church. In 1690, a certain invader by name of 'Kakaji' also attacked and damaged the church.
The Maratha invaders of 1739 did not destroy the chapel, although the Jesuits were forced to leave and it was thereafter served by the secular priests.
The chapel was enlarged in 1889. The three altars of the chapel are from one of the original churches in the Bacaim Fort. At some time, a cross and a grotto to Our Lady of Lourdes was added.
It is not known when the chapel was elevated to the rank of a parish church, but from the evidence, it seems to be some time before 1574.
Subsequently, the parishes of Our Lady of Remedies at Remedy, Our Lady of Grace at Papdy, Mae de Deus (Mother of God) at Palle, Our Lady of Mercy at Merces and St. Michael the Archangel at Porim (Manickpur) were carved out of it (1574–1606).
Sandor and the rest of the Vasai region were not disturbed by the intra-Catholic Padroado-Propaganda conflict as the region remained firmly faithful to the Archbishop of Goa and refused to accept the authority of the Vicars Apostolic of Bombay and their successors, the Archbishops of Bombay.
In 1886, the northern part of the Archdiocese of Goa was carved out as the Diocese of Damao, including the Vasai region, and it was only in 1928 that the two dioceses (Damao and Bombay) were merged, so that the Vasai region came under the Archbishops of Bombay for the first time in 1928.
At present, the parish of Sandor also serves the village of Saloli. The church celebrates its feast 9–15 December every year, and has a big feast in the evenings.
The village of Sandor has now been made part of the Municipal Corporation of Vasai-Virar.
Started in 1971 under the leadership of Very Rev. late Msgr. Philip Tavares the then parish priest of the Church. This society is a part of Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Paris, France, an international organization of Roman Catholic lay men and women of all ages, whose primary mission is to help the poor and less fortunate.
Founded in 1833 by Frederick Ozanam, a French lawyer, author, and professor in the Sorbonne University of Paris to help impoverished people living in the slums of Paris, France.
The Society numbers about 950,000 in some 132 countries worldwide, whose members operate through "conferences". A conference may be based out of a church, community center, school, hospital, etc., and is composed of Catholic volunteers.

text: HuffPo Writer: Leggero's Non-Apology for Pearl Harbor Joke 'Normal' Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 5 Jan 2014 post a comment On January 4th the Huffington Post (HuffPo) ran a column describing Natasha Leggero's lack of apology to Pearl Harbor veterans as keeping with the comedic norm of not apologizing for jokes. To be clear, Leggero not only refused to apologize for mocking and laughing at Pearl Harbor veterans during NBC's News Year's Eve broadcast, but actually explained why she did not think an apology was necessary. In other words, she issued an non-apology. According to the HuffPo writer Ross Luippold, "apologies for jokes are rare, and non-apologies are even rarer." The HuffPo said Leggero's non-apology is "more in line with that of Joan Rivers, who refused to apologize for a joke about the Holocaust she made on a red carpet [in February 2013]." On January 3rd comedian Amy Schumer tweeted support for Leggero's New Year's Eve joke and Seth Rogen tweeted his opinion that Leggero is "funny as f--k." Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins

Hey Anna,
I read your column last week about going down on women and it made me wonder, do straight women like giving head? Or is it mostly just something they do to keep us happy? I'm certainly not complaining, but I was just wondering, especially since men don't seem to be doing as good a job reciprocating.
—Respectfully, BJ Inquirer
Dear BJ Inquirer,
While it's true that we women will do just about anything in exchange for a Craver Saver at White Castle, yes, some women like giving head simply for its own reward. Then again, "some" women like everything, even jorts and Bigfoot erotica. So, let's get a little more specific, since you asked so respectfully.
According to a 2010 Esquire survey, helpfully illustrated by melting popsicle imagery, 30 percent of women "loved it" but 46 percent said they only "liked it because he likes it." Nineteen percent said they "don't like it, but they'll do it," and you can practically see them rolling their eyes as you read that, while a scant 5 percent say they "won't do it at all." Also in 2010, which apparently was a big year for blow job studies, research from the University of Alberta found that the majority of 18- to 25-year-old women were "excited" or "stimulated" by the act; only 10 to 20 percent of women felt "disgusted" or "bored" by it.
"[B]oth intercourse and oral sex were associated with mostly positive emotions overall, which suggests that most young women are engaging in these activities because they enjoy them," researcher Brea Malacad said in PsychCentral. "Based on the results of my study, there is a percentage of women [just over 30 percent] who feel powerful when performing fellatio." And all this time, I thought knowledge is power. It just goes to show that we should never take sex advice from "Reading Rainbow."
Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this lady, Joanna Van Vleck from orgasmic meditation website One Taste, who claims she can orgasm from giving fellatio alone. "I actually don't care if he likes it or not. But the crazy thing that happens when you make that switch is that he likes it 10 times more," she told Cosmo. I watched the video of Van Vleck performing this "blow job for her" spectacle and it involved too much crying and snot for my taste. This isn't to say she wasn't having a good time, but that our versions of a "good time" differ somewhat.
In summation, there will always be some gals (and guys) who are doin' it out of a sense of duty or reciprocity, some who genuinely enjoy and get off on it, some who would rather watch TV shows about teenage pregnancy and some who'd prefer the fish, thanks.

AP Pro Football Writer
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) -- An eventful, productive 10-year career with Minnesota for Kevin Williams has taken a sharp turn toward a final chapter.
First, the Vikings forced him to take a pay cut. Then they drafted his probable replacement with one of their three first-round picks in April.
Williams didn't get to be a six-time Pro Bowl pick by being a pushover. The 6-foot-5, 310-pound defensive tackle doesn't plan to meekly fade away.
"If we can bring a young guy to help us win and he just so happens to play my position, so be it," Williams said. "I still think I'm the top dog here and until proven otherwise, we're going to go with it."
Under the hefty extension he signed right in 2006, Williams made $7 million last season. He was scheduled to draw the same salary plus $500,000 in incentives for 2013, but the Vikings docked that to $4.9 million plus a $100,000 bonus. The final year of his contract, at $7 million for 2014, was voided.
The giveback to Williams was that his salary this season was fully guaranteed.
Slashing salaries for veterans to manage salary-cap space, of course, is simply part of the offseason routine for NFL teams. Left guard Charlie Johnson and tight end John Carlson also had their contracts restructured in order to stick around. Cornerback Antoine Winfield was stunningly let go, and the hope the Vikings had of him returning at a lower rate was dashed when he signed with Seattle.
Williams, the longest-tenured player on the team and the only one on Minnesota's defense who was here prior to 2006, has endured all kinds of ups and downs since he was taken with the ninth overall pick in the 2003 draft out of Oklahoma State.
Only eight of his 56

I had a traffic ticket a couple of years ago that went to collections (allianceone) and they are the worst people ever! my original citation was 1350.00 and this was 2 years ago, since then it went up to 3700.00 with no explanation of interest accrued and the original amount of the ticket
I initally had a payment plan set up with alliance one and had lost my job so I contacted alliance one to change my payment amounts and they refused to assist me, so at that time I informed them that I would not be able to send in the whole payment so the rep informed me they will accept the payment. well a month later I receive a letter in the mail from the dept of licensing stating my drivers license will be suspended, now I have a handicap child and a elderly family member I take care of so not being able to drive is not an option so I contacted alliance one whom in turn told be I can't start a payment plan without putting 50% down and they refused to provide me with a detailed record of payments I made and interest my account gained while in collections so I asked to speak to a supervisor and she was no help at all so now I am taking the chance of driving without a license and wondering how I would be able to come up with 1500 dollars
I do not understand how these people sleep at night and do not understand why I am not able to obtain info on my account and isn't there a limit to the amount of interest they can charge? I do not think that it is right that they can suspend your license for that and it's not like I am not making any efforts to resolve this matter. don't I have any rights as a consumer? help anyone???

In this time of economic down fall, sadly service went with it, I feel for you. I too having dealt with Alliance One myself, understand how careless and clueless they are. There are a few suggestions I have for you:
1) Move, I know it sounds crazy but specific counties in Washington are notorious for prosecuting their citizens to the full extent (charging locals the most money.) in order to make up for lost revenue, due to the current economy.
2)There are several class action suits against Alliance One/Signal Credit, join one. They will be forced to consider that their fees are unreasonable and negotiate a settelment, as far as the company accepting that their services are anything other than crude will not happen. They are a company and know that the bottom line is money and them obtaining as much as possible.
3) Obtain your own personal lawyer, it will cost less then the amount they are requesting from you presently and including the interest the amount will gain in the judicial process.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
