On March 12th, beginning of my new life started. I see so many changes in me. I Never usually call. Now ……. You know these things happen. Now all things changed. Yes its just the beginning of another phase of my life.
I and My friend sathya Went to see kochadaiyaan movie on kasi theater first day release. It was a good experience to see the 3d animation movie in chennai with such big crowd. I and my friend enjoyed the super star rajini every move and dialogue.
Then in evening i went to see the 3d movie of kochadaiyaan as earlier i saw 2d movie of kochadaiyaan. When i compare the kochadaiyaan 3d with 2d. 2d is simply nothing. If u want to watch kochadaiyaan then see only in 3d. In 3d it is awesome.
We all know that kochadaiyaan is super star Rajini movie and it is a 2014 Indian Tamil historical fiction-action film. It is the the first India Motion capture 3d movie ever. This movie was Written by K. S. Ravikumar and directed by debutante Soundarya R. Ashwin.

| ★★★★★ Excellent
Disappointing that you have picked out one poor review to shoot hole in. While I will take it on faith that your rebuttal to the poor review was correct, It odd that you find a 38 minute wait for pub fare acceptable and cannot locate your response to any additional "credible" negative reviews. My advice to you as a business owner is to try and take the criticism constructively and use it to improve your business rather than take a defensive stance. In the customer facing business it is the only way to survive and flourish.

Omaha police investigate a report of shots fired. They end up locating the suspects vehicle, leading to a search. In the same area, a pedestrian was reportedly hit by a vehicle.
Police say the pedestrian hit by the vehicle is not related to the search for suspects who ran from police, or the shots fired call. However, it all happened in the area of 41st and Ames Avenue.
As of 12:30 p.m., police were searching a neighborhood northwest of the area and had one suspect in custody, they also recovered a stolen vehicle that the suspects were reportedly driving and a stolen weapon inside of that vehicle.

Park City 2012: The QueerDance Preview
Once again, movie lovers and industry insiders will be gathering in Park City, Utah this month for the annual independent film orgy known as the Sundance Film Festival (January 19-29) with additional action unspooling at the longstanding alternative event known as Slamdance (January 20-26).
The LGBT offerings for 2012 look to be slimmer than in years past but here's a sneak peek at some of the titles debuting in Park City that you'll be wanting to keep an eye out for at your local LGBT film festival this year. Caveat: I have not actually seen any of these films except one (My Best Day which I heartily recommend).
At Sundance:
From out gay writer-director Ira Sachs (The Delta, Forty Shades of Blue) comes the autobiographical romantic drama, Keep The Lights On. Set in the late '90s against a New York City backdrop this is the lone gay feature in the highly competitive U.S. Dramatic Competition.
The U.S. Documentary Competition hosts the premiere of two exciting new films: Love Free or Die, a portrait of openly gay bishop Gene Robinson and How To Survive a Plague, an overview of ACT UP and TAG (Treatment Action Group) that promises to be a heartrending and inspiring testament to the heroic activists of the era. Kirby Dick's latest film, The Invisible War also includes one lesbian interviewee as it investigates the problem of rape within the U.S. military.
How To Survive a Plague
The World Dramatic competition showcases the British coming-of-age drama, My Brother The Devil as well as Young & Wild, a Chilean feature about a bisexual teenage girl in Santiago.
A pair of lesbian features premiere in the NEXT section: from Aurora Guerrero the highly-anticipated Los Angeles Latina lesbian love story, Mosquita y Mari and from Erin Greenwell (Big Dreams in Little Hope) a terrifically quirky and cinematic ensemble comedy-drama, My Best Day which stars the wonderful Ashlie Atkinson as a lesbian janitor who spends the 4th of July helping her straight girl friend find her long lost father.
My Best Day
In the New Frontier section actor-director Terence Nance presents his feature, An Oversimplification of Her Beauty which explores his desire for a woman he has just met but is described by the Sundance press office as being of LGBT interest.
The Documentary Premieres section includes an exciting new project from portrait photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders. About Face explores the lives and careers of such super models as Cheryl Tiegs, Jerry Hall, Christie Brinkley and Marisa Berenson as it looks back at the fashion world of the 80s.
In the Premieres section look out for Elijah Wood's gay character in Celeste and Jesse Forever as well as Justin Long playing gay in For A Good Time, Call (by gay filmmaker Jamie Travis). Lastly, in the festival's Spotlight section Your Sister's Sister features a lead lesbian character played by Rosemary DeWitt.
Titles of interest in the Shorts category (according to the helpful folks at the Sundance press office) include: Dol (First Birthday), Fourplay: Tampa, The Thing and The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom.
Looks like there are only two films of interest this year at Slamdance: James Stenson's Kelly, a documentary portrait of a troubled and struggling rural transgender teen in Los Angeles and the provocative German drama, Heavy Girls (Dicke Maedchen) about a man who lives with his elderly mother and becomes involved with his mother's male caregiver.
There are always lots of panels, discussions and other programming for festival attendees in Park City. As they have for the past several years, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) will be doing several days of programming around the opening weekend of the festival — including panel discussions and a filmmaker lounge. Here are links to details about three exciting panels: Funding through Social Media, Keep the Lights On, Love Free or Die. Be sure to visit GLAAD.org for additional panels and events.
Also check in on the Outfest Facebook page to see if and when the annual Outfest Queer Brunch is announced (details were not available at press time). And that's the sneak peek at Park City for 2012!
In the crowd sourcing spirit: Please post in the comments field below if you hear of additional LGBT-interest films or have other info to share.

During Photo East Expo, I had the good fortune to listen to Ken Kaminesky talk about his work as a travel photographer. What interested me most was his approach to social media marketing and how he uses it to further his work. Here are a few things I heard.
While photographers used to only sell photographs, they now have to sell themselves as authorities—voices to be reckoned with. The bigger your influence, the more opportunities you get. And in this connected world, your influence reaches far beyond people you know or who might see your work in magazine—the whole world is (potentially) watching and listening to what you have to say. So go ahead: start that blog already, post on Facebook and Google +, and tweet those 140 characters. Social media marketing expands your audience.
The important thing is to not just sell you fares or yourself, but to also have real conversations. Social media marketing is about sharing stories, inspiration and advice. Reach out to people and—provided that your images and words are compelling—they will follow you. Once you've established a following, don't be surprised if clients come knocking on your door: many companies seek successful bloggers to promote their products or services. You come with a built-in audience; what advertiser wouldn't want that?
Having a good presence in social media will also help with your travel plans. You can contact local boards of tourism or chambers of commerce, share your data with them and see if they can subsidize your travel or, at the very least, open doors for you. Maybe they can arrange a private visit to a museum during off-hours so you have the whole place to yourself? Or grant you access to off-limit spots? The important thing here is that you need to have done your homework and know what to ask for.
Lastly, social media marketing is about connecting with people. All these quick little virtual interactions help forge relationships, which in turn can become real-life friendships. Announce your next destination on your networks and reach out to people you know who live there. Instead of showing up in an unknown city, you now have friends waiting for you there. And nothing beats hanging out with a local to find truly off-the-beaten-path cool spots! It will be enough to make you forget all the long hours you've logged in front of your computer, I promise.

CAPE CORAL, Fla. A driver escaped injury late Wednesday evening when the vehicle he was operating ended up in a Cape Coral canal.
Just after 10:45 p.m., firefighters responded to the 3400 block of NE 14th Place for a report of a car in the water. During the search, it was confirmed by Cape Coral Police that the driver was located, was uninjured and was the only occupant of the vehicle.
According to the crash report, the vehicle was travelling 60 mph in a 30 mph zone on NE 34th Lane, when it ran through the stop sign, crossed over NE 14th Place, and into a vacant lot. The vehicle then hit a dirt embankment and ran into a canal.
A witness described the crash to authorities, and heard the driver climb from the canal, saying he just broke up with his girlfriend.
The owner of the vehicle was located a short distance away, asleep at his residence. He was soaking wet, with minor lacerations to his right hand.
He was not tested for alcohol, but was cited for leaving the scene of a crash.

Yogeshwar says 150 guesthouses in forests will also be shut down
In a move to preserve and protect wildlife, the State government has decided to order closure of all private commercial resorts located in the vicinity of wildlife sanctuaries in the State. The Forest Department's guesthouses located inside the forest will also be closed.
Minister for Forests C.P. Yogeshwar, who held a meeting with department officials on Monday, told presspersons that notices would be served to owners of all private resorts asking them to close them as they are causing harm to forests and wildlife.
According to the Environment Protection Act, 1986, no construction work to promote tourism must be taken up in a 10-km radius of protected forests. However, as there is a great demand for resorts from tourists near wildlife sanctuaries, many resorts have come up in the vicinity of reserved forest areas.
Private parties have illegally constructed 30 resorts by encroaching upon forest areas. So, now it has been decided to order closure of all commercial resorts in the vicinity of the forest, Mr. Yogeshwar said.
According to the Minister, tour operators have been disturbing tigers and other animals by taking their vehicles near them. He said private resorts, including Jungle Lodges and Resorts Limited, should try to earn revenue from tapping potential of non-forest area tourism spots.
The department's Principal Secretary will tour wildlife sanctuaries and formulate guidelines to restrict the movement of tourists and vehicles inside the reserves, Mr. Yogeshwar said.
The Forest Department has also decided to shut down nearly 150 guesthouses inside forest areas.
New guesthouses will be built outside the forests for carrying out administrative and other works of the department, Minister Yogeshwar said. He explained that there is a huge demand for forest guesthouses from relatives of IFS officers and other higher level officials as there are as many as 177 IFS officials in the State. And, the Forest Department has been spending lots of money on maintenance of those guesthouses, he added.

text: Ndamukong Suh Facing Disciplinary Action from NFL Print article Send a Tip by Cameron Scales 9 Sep 2013 post a comment Detroit Lions Defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh has become familiar with the NFL's disciplinary protocol over his three-year career. Drafted in 2010, Suh has been ejected from a game, received a two game suspension, and paid numerous fines for his controversial on-field play. It didn't take long into the 2013 season for Suh to put himself on the League's radar once again. After the Lions intercepted a pass in Sunday's 34-24 victory over the Vikings, Ndamukong Suh threw his body at the knees of Viking center John Sullivan while his teammate sprinted for the end zone. Both Sullivan and Suh were well behind the play at the time and the illegal block drew a 15-yard penalty that negated a Detroit defensive touchdown. In an NFL player poll, Ndamukong Suh was rated as the dirtiest player in the NFL, receiving four times as many votes as the player who came in 2nd. Detroit will need Suh to stay on the field and out of the NFL disciplinary offices if they are to improve on last year's 4-12 record.

DEFINITION of 'Medallion Signature Guarantee'
One of several special certification stamps which guarantee that the signature authorizing the transfer of securities is authentic. A Medallion signature guarantee is commonly required when an owner wants to sell or transfer securities, such as stocks or bonds, which are held in physical certificate form. If you hold securities through a broker, you will not need to get a signature guarantee to sell or transfer the securities.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Medallion Signature Guarantee'
In order to provide a Medallion signature guarantee, an institution must be a member of one of three Medallion signature guarantee programs: the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion program, the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program and the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program. Normally, you can obtain a Medallion signature guarantee at a financial institution where you are already a customer. A small charge may be assessed for this service by your bank.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Mariners designated hitter Corey Hart will miss four to six weeks with a strained left hamstring.
Hart was placed on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to Sunday. Seattle recalled infielder-outfielder Nick Franklin from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday to take Hart's place on the roster.
The 32-year-old Hart injured his leg while stealing second base during the fourth inning of the Mariners' 6-2 victory at Minnesota on Sunday. He has appeared in 37 games, hitting .209 with five home runs and 17 RBIs.
With no one other natural DH on the roster, manager Lloyd McClendon says he will mix and match to fill Hart's vacancy in the batting order.

A Saunders County man has been sentenced for the long-standing sexual abuse of a child and an unrelated drug charge.
Richard Strenger was sentenced Monday to 20-60 months for Possession of a Controlled Substance, 60 months for Third Degree Sexual Assault of a Child, and 30-40 years on his conviction of Attempted Sexual Assault of a Child.
The time will be served concurrently, meaning that sentence tops out at 40 years. With Nebraska's Good Time law, Strenger could be out in half that time.

CP boss calls for halt to hazardous tankers
'Almighty dollar' behind reluctance to take action
Amanda Stephenson, Calgary HeraldPublished: Wednesday, February 19, 2014
Thousands of older model tank cars currently hauling crude oil on North American railways must be retrofitted or retired immediately, Canadian Pacific Railway CEO Hunter Harrison said on Tuesday.
In his first major speech in Calgary since taking the helm at CP in 2012, the blunt-talking, sometimes controversial railroader told a Calgary Chamber of Commerce audience he has been speaking to "everybody that will listen" about the dangers of the DOT-111 tanker cars.
Implicated in July's horrific Lac Megantic train explosion, DOT-111 tanker cars have been shown in several studies to carry a higher risk of rupture in a derailment. Safety officials in the U.S. and Canada have called for immediate action on these cars to make shipping flammable crude by rail safer, but governments on both sides of the border have so far failed to commit to any sort of legislated phase-out or retrofit program.
Canadian Pacific Railway CEO Hunter Harrison, addressing a Calgary Chamber of Commerce lunch at the Telus Convention Centre Tuesday, said governments need to act immediately to begin the phase-out of the type of rail cars shown to be more dangerous in a derailment.
Ted Rhodes, Calgary Herald
"Stop them (these cars) tomorrow. Don't wait for a study, we know the facts," Harrison said. "You know what it comes down to, and I hate to say this, it's the almighty dollar. Who's going to pay for this?" Though they bear the brunt of public outrage in a spill, for the most part, railways like CP do not own the tank cars they transport - the cars are owned instead by leasing companies and shippers. Experts have said retrofitting the 72,000 older-model cars in service across North America could cost owners anywhere between $30,000 to $70,000 per car.
While some industry groups have suggested it could take 10 years to rid the North American transportation system of the older DOT-111 tank cars, New York-based transportation analyst Anthony Hatch told the Herald he thinks it could be done within two to three years if governments ordered it, "It would mean some disruption to the supply chain, but not permanent, and hopefully higher safety levels and public reassurance," Hatch said in an email.
CP, like its rival Canadian National Railway, announced last week it would implement a surcharge for customers using the older model cars. Harrison applauded Saint John-based Irving Oil, which on Monday announced it will remove older cars from its fleet.
"I think it was a good signal. I think they stood up for what they believed in, and I was proud to see them do it," Harrison said.
As a carrier, Harrison said, Canadian Pacific is not allowed to say no to shipping oil - it is legally required to transport whatever commodity is brought to it. While Harrison said crude oil can absolutely be shipped by rail safely, he said he would feel better if all shippers would move to tank cars built to 2011 safety standards or better.
It's not just a crude issue, he added.
"There's stuff we're hauling, and it's going right through your community, right by your door, and it's a whole lot more dangerous than crude," Harrison said.
Booming U.S. shale oil production as well as a pipeline bottleneck has led to significant increases in crudeby-rail shipments in the last two years. According to Statistics Canada, in 2011 about 68,000 carloads of fuel oils and crude petroleum were moved along Canadian rail lines. In 2012, that rose to nearly 113,000. Between January and September of 2013, some 118,000 carloads had already been moved.

Be rest assured. When I was 60 and my wife was 54, we undertook an arduous tour for 27 days including Badri, Kedar, Gangotri, Yamunotri etc apart from Gaya, Varanasi and Vaishnavo Devi etc. We took our mother in law who was at that time 78 year old. Ponies are available at the Gowri Kund. Air at top is thin but if they don't have any major problems, they can easily have Darshan. After Kedarji, you may go to Badrinath also.

keep shooting themselves in the foot. From what I can see business are going to shun windows 8 just for the amount of training it is going to need. After all IT budgest are being cut world wide at the moment, it's not as if there's buckets ofcash lying around.
Now they are alienating all of the smaller software devs out there by forcing them to use the Metro Interface, which IMO is not suitible for a desktop environment. Phones - Yes; Tablets - Yes, but not desktops.

Standing NEXT to an HTML coder is like standing NEXT TO GOD
Ok I will bite..
I understand that the article is supposed to be read "Tounge in Cheek", but anyone who describes HTML as a programming language needs to start writing in assembler. This will teach you the basics of real programming and give you the building blocks and understanding of what is really happing "under the hood",which can then be applied to any other REAL programming language.
HTML, by my definition cannot be described as a programming language as the basics are missing. I.E Branching, Looping and conditionals. As I see it HTML defines the layout and content of a web page. Which in turn is parsed by the browser calling the appropriate real code functions along the way to produce the desired web page.

I would much rather work for a small Software house, were everyone is on first name terms and people know what you do, as they are interested in you as a person, rather than a bum on a seat.
OK, my pay may not be as good as if I worked in a large company, but the quality of my working life more than makes up for it. I have enough to live on and a bit more besides, that's all I need financially. Chasing more and more money, does not make the job any better, it might make you feel better in the short term but underneath it all, you are still going to be unhappy, if it's a crap job with little or no recognition

FBI investigating shooting death of agent at Fort A. P. Hill.
By PAMELA GOULD
The FBI agent killed during Hostage Rescue Team training this week was wearing ballistic body armor, including a helmet, when he was accidentally shot.
Supervisory Special Agent Gregory J. Rahoi, 38, was fatally shot late Wednesday afternoon during training on one of the live-fire ranges at Fort A.P. Hill in Caroline County.
The last live-fire training accident at Fort A.P. Hill occurred in December 2000 when a Marine was killed, according to base spokesman Ken Perrotte.
The FBI would not provide details on the training being conducted this week. However, Agent Ann Todd, a bureau spokeswoman, said live-fire training is "a regular part of HRT training and has been since [the team's] inception."
The FBI's Inspection Division is conducting a review of the incident, as is standard any time bureau personnel fire a weapon, Todd said. She had no idea how long the review could take.
HRT is based at the FBI Academy on the grounds of Quantico Marine Corps Base. When not deployed, the team spends its time training at the academy, as well as sites across the country.
Rahoi was single. He grew up in the Milwaukee area and joined the FBI in April 1997. He spent the past six years as a member of HRT.
Todd said Wednesday "was a very sad day for the FBI."
Rahoi is the second HRT member to die in the line of duty. Both men died during training accidents.
Special Agent James K. McAllister died April 19, 1986, after falling from a helicopter on academy grounds.
Additionally, a third agent, who served on the SWAT team at his field office in Illinois, died from an injury received during training at the HRT facility dedicated in McAllister's memory.
Special Agent Robert R. Hardesty fell while training inside the Tactical Firearms Training Center. The 40-year-old died from his injuries on June 2, 2005.
HRT was created in 1983 to meet the nation's need for a domestic counterterrorism unit to address hostage situations.
Today, the team deploys worldwide and, as part of the FBI's Critical Incident Response Group, is charged with being able to depart to any crisis within four hours.
The team has responded more than 350 times on missions ranging from terrorism to violent crime to foreign counterintelligence investigations.
Training is aimed at preparing team members to deal with challenges such as barricade situations, manhunts, helicopter operations, cold-weather missions and weapons of mass destruction, according to the FBI's Web site.

NASHVILLE — The website for the Southern Baptist Convention is blocked on some military installations.
SBC spokesman Sing Oldham said the Department of Defense has assured denomination leaders that the blockage is a random event with no malicious intent. Even so, he called the blockage "deeply disturbing."
In a statement to the media, Oldham said, "If the government has blocked any part of the sbc.net website for any purpose that would be an unconscionable breach of trust with the American public."
Oldham said today some installations can access the site while others cannot. He said the problem may involve a software issue.
The Nashville-based Southern Baptist Convention is the nation's largest Protestant denomination, with 16 million members.
A call to a Defense Department spokesman by The Associated Press was not immediately returned.

March 2, 2012
The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) announced its plans to install 150 new solar-powered bus shelters throughout the Las Vegas Valley as part of its federally funded transit amenities program.
RTC GM Jacob Snow stated that not only will the new shelters provide an attractive, comfortable and shaded place for riders to wait for transit, but they will also save thousands of dollars in energy costs.
"These new transit shelters feature energy-saving LED lighting and solar panels that enable the shelters to power their own illumination without being connected to the local power grid," said Snow. "As a result, these 150 new bus shelters are estimated to save taxpayers about $54,000 a year in energy costs."
The shelters, built with recyclable materials, have room to accommodate a passenger in a wheelchair or other mobility device and will feature a bench, a receptacle bin, a display case for transit information and two advertising panels that will overall improve the experience of transit riders.
The purchase and installation of the 150 new energy-saving shelters is funded by a $1.8 million formula grant from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) that must be allocated for transit enhancementprojects such as transit shelters.
All 150 transit shelters are scheduled to be installed by the end of the year in Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas and unincorporated Clark County.
The new shelters were designed by Luchessi Galati Architects, manufactured by Tolar Manufacturing Inc. and installed by Outdoor Promotions, with Mailey Concrete pouring the concrete slab.
In 2005, the Nevada Legislature authorized the RTC to oversee bus shelters in Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas and unincorporated Clark County. The RTC is responsible for the installation and maintenance of bus shelters in these jurisdictions. In total, the RTC has approximately 3,500 transit stops valley-wide and 1,500 stops have shelters.

Thrush and Yeast in breastfeeding mom and baby
8:31 am
March 23, 2010
Yes, your daughter will receive some of the good bacteria (probiotics) from your breast milk, so we recommend that you take the Ultimate Flora 50 Billion for now until you can start her on FloraBABY, and see if her condition improves.
FloraBABY is highly recommended because it is formulated specifically for the infant/toddler digestive system. This is important because from ages 0-4 their immune systems are developing and they need different probiotic strains than adults (such as Bifidobacteria infantis).
6:12 pm
I have a 3 month old little girl who has had oral thrush for 3 weeks. We tried two cycles of nystatin without any luck. The symptoms would disappear until the dosage was finished and then would return within a day or two. I am now myself struggling with yeast overgrowth and have turned to your products for help. I just purchased a bottle of the Ultimate Flora Critical Care 50 Billion and was curious if the will be any help to my daughter through my breast milk? I read online about mixing a capsule with a little water and dipping your finger in it for your baby to suck on but I wasn't sure if this was safe or not with your products.
I did notice you have a probiotic for babies but I am looking for something to help us until we would be able to receive probiotics it in the mail.
Thank you in advance.

As Ebola Surges, CDC Sends Aid And Warns Against Travel
It will take at least three to six months to contain the largest Ebola outbreak in history, the health agency says. Fifty-seven people have died in four days, raising the death toll to 729.
Vultures show Argentina no mercy
"Vulture funds" earned their nickname because they are, in a sense, scavengers.
They go after the debt of dying firms or crisis-addled countries, buying it on the cheap when nobody thinks it'll get paid back and many other creditors have given up and agreed to accept pennies on the dollar. Then, they sue to get it paid back in full. This can result in a situation where a vast majority of original creditors have agreed to accept a fraction of their original debt, leaving the vulture minority to win big.
For example, in the current dispute between a group of investors and Argentina, a firm called Elliott Capital Management purchased Argentine debt for $48.7 million and is now seeking payment of $832 million.
"These firms profit from the backs of poor people," says Eric LeCompte, executive director of Jubilee USA, a religious organization that lobbies for debt relief for poor countries and international financial reform. "One of the most tragic recent examples is money from debt relief was sent to Zambia, but that money for schools and hospitals was collected by vulture funds."
Funds have been aggressive in using whatever legal means they can to ensure full repayment of sometimes decades old debt. In 2010, Elliott Capital Management convinced a court in Ghana to bar an Argentine navy ship from leaving that country as a way to extract the money it says it is owed.
Such examples are extreme and give a bad name to what is otherwise a simple case of enforcing commitments, argues Edward Altman, professor of finance at New York University's Stern School of Business.
"Asking for full payment is totally appropriate," he says. The original owners of a country's securities are ill-equipped to negotiate when those countries renege on their commitments, and the vultures have the appetite and ability to play hardball.
Like vultures in the wild, vulture funds may serve an important ecological purpose.
"They provide in the case of distressed assets a liquidity that simply wouldn't be there," he says. (In other words, it's helpful to have somebody out there who will buy bad debt.)
There's a hole in international law
Whether morally bankrupt or legally secure, the reason why vulture funds can operate in the first place and why there is such controversy around them boils down to a hole in international law: There is no bankruptcy court for countries.
"When you, or I, or General Motors runs out of money, we can file for bankruptcy and there's somebody to oversee that process," explains Anna Gelpern, professor of law at Georgetown University and a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. "When a government runs out of money there is no such process, all you have are a bunch of contracts and it's every person and fund for themselves."
Theoretically, it's possible to write contracts when bonds are issued that lay out what happens in the case of a default. For example, to set out in the contract that if 90 percent of creditors agree to accepting 30 cents on the dollar, it applies to all creditors.
The problem, of course, is that nobody wants to talk about default when they issue a bond. Bankruptcy laws get around this problem by laying out rules in law. No such luck for countries.
Over the years, an informal system developed whereby countries would get a majority of creditors on board with restructured debt when defaults occur. But the Argentina case, the firms who sued "have thrown a big wrench in the process of coming up with a methodology for an orderly resolution of countries with debt problems," says Barry Bosworth, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution.
Gelpern points out that as firms and countries fight through international legal and financial systems, it's banks and financial institutions that suffer jabs and bruises along the way.
"You can't make Argentina do anything, but by golly, you can threaten anyone who has anything to do with Argentina," she says. "Going forward, countries will find it harder to restructure their debts, creditors will have to think about risk more carefully when getting involved with countries that are in trouble."
Holding individuals responsible for the financial crisis
In the aftermath of the financial crisis, there have been relatively few individuals held responsible for the roles they played, or the bad mortgages they issued and bundled together to pass along to investors. However, a former employee of the mortgage lender Countrywide Financial was fined Wednesday as part of a civil fraud case.
It was nicknamed "the Hustle" – a program in which Countrywide is alleged to have passed bad mortgage products onto investors. Since Bank of America acquired Countywide in 2008, the bank was fined nearly $1.3 billion for the fraud. Additionally, a former Countrywide employee, Rebecca Mairone, was fined $1 million, which the judge specified she should pay herself.
Unlike previous financial crises, pursuing individuals for their misdeeds has not been the norm in recent years, says Ken Thomas, an independent bank consultant and economist.
"We're seeing companies paying fines, but little actions against the people involved," he says. "After the savings and loan crisis, there were many savings and loan executives that went to jail. Here, we don't see that."
Countrywide's former CEO and CFO were also fined coming out of the financial crisis.
However, most individuals who have been targeted are typically lower-level employees who worked directly on the bad deals, says Michael Santoro, a professor at Rutgers Business School.
"It's a little more difficult to present evidence against people who have set policies in motion or who might turned the other way or who may have winked at something," he says.
According to the Securities and Exchange Commission, 174 companies or entities have been charged arising from the financial crisis. About 40 percent of those charges have been against CEOs, CFOs or other senior executives.
Many of those actions were on a different scale than this case, says David Zaring, associate professor of legal studies and business ethics at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
"Ms. Mairone, she's in a unique place," says Zaring. "There's an actual jury verdict that came in against her and a fine that was duly awarded after that verdict. Almost everything the SEC has done has been a settlement."
Zaring says earlier failed criminal cases against a pair of Bear Stearns employees might have been a deterrent, and that if the wrongdoing was such a widespread practice in the financial industry, it can be hard to single out individuals.
What other individuals have paid fines?
It's exceedingly rare for an individual to be singled out by the SEC and it's just as rare for those folks to pay any more than a couple hundred thousand dollars -- chump change. There are only a few other exceptions: here are the biggest penalties levied by the SEC in the wake of the Great Recession:
- Angelo Mozilo, former CEO of Countrywide, is the biggest exception to the rule by far. As part of a settlement with the SEC, Mozilo agreed to pay a record $22.5 million penalty, on top of another $45 million in "ill-gotten gains" to be returned to investors. Mozilo was also banned from running a public company for life. His CFO paid a relatively puny $130,000 penalty.
- Former Brookstreet CEO Stanley Brooks didn't settle with the SEC and a federal judge hit him with a $10 million fine. In addition to the penalty, the maximum allowed for his charges, Brooks had to pay another $110,000 to investors.
- From here, the penalties drop pretty quickly and leave the executive suite. Fabrice Tourre, a Goldman Sachs trader turned academic, was accused of defrauding investors and became a symbol of the economic crisis for many. The SEC sought nearly $1 million in fines from "Fabulous Fab," but he was eventually ordered to pay $825,000.
- Former Bear Stearns portfolio managers Ralph Cioffi and Matthew Tannin were notably aquitted of securities fraud in 2009, but they settled in a later civil case, agreeing to pay about $1.05 million.
How driverless cars could injure insurers
Pretty much everything bad that happens behind the wheel today is our fault.
"Today, 95 percent of accidents are actually driver error," says Robert Hartwig, president and economist at the Insurance Information Institute, an industry association.
When cars drive themselves, he says, people hope to see a lot fewer accidents.
"The data seems to support that these cars will be better drivers than most people, because they don't get distracted, they don't turn around and talk to their kids, they don't play with their cellphone," says Chris Shultz, deputy commissioner of community programs and policy initiatives at the California Department of Insurance.
And while you might think this would mean cheaper insurance policies, Schultz says the future of auto insurance has actuaries getting anxious.
"We might see decreased frequency of collisions, but increased severity," he says.
While policy holders might pay less, because your car is involved in fewer accidents, you might pay more because the cost of high tech repairs is higher.
Then, there's the liability question.
"What happens if I put my five-year-old in the back and press the button and say 'drive my five-year-old to kindergarten'? I don't think any policy makers know what to do with that yet," says Schultz.
"The question really turns into 'who is in control of the driverless car?'" says Frank Douma, a research fellow and associate director of the State and Local Policy Program at the Univeristy of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs and a research scholar at its Center for Transportation Studies.
The answer, says Douma, could mean analyzing data from the car after an accident – looking at its black box.
But while the knowledge may prove a relief to no one but insurers, self driving cars still have classic problems, in which liability is clear. So although we can expect to see a significant number of autonomous cars on the road by 2020, Robert Hartwig says, don't plan to cancel your insurance policy.
"Cars could still be stolen, trees could still fall on your car."
Kellogg's has a cereal problem
Kellogg's, maker of Froot Loops, Apple Jacks and Corn Flakes, could be drying up.
Americans aren't buying cereal like they used to. And that's led to a sales slump: Profits were down 16 percent last quarter.
Another factor is that cereals like Special K used to be popular because they were low-calorie. Now, however, Kellogg's CEO says Americans have become more interested in foods that are "more nutritious."

Don't bother shopping around for your contact lenses
The other day, an email came in from a big online contact lens store that said, starting Aug. 1, we can all forget about getting a deal on the most popular contact lenses.
What's happening is something called unilateral pricing. Johnson & Johnson, which makes the top-selling Acuvue brand, is joining other manufacturers, like Alcon and Bausch & Lomb, in telling eye doctors, big box retailers and online stores that they can't charge less than a certain amount.
"If the retailer sets the lenses for below that price, then the supply of that particular contact lens would be cut off," Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota, said as she opened a Judiciary Antitrust Subcommittee hearing on the new practices.
"If the point is to save consumers money, I don't know why we have a minimum price we can't go below," R. Joe Zeidner, general counsel at the discounter 1-800-CONTACTS, told the panel.
The lame police are making us raise prices soon. Stock up now. #NeverRunOutOfContacts http://t.co/may0A1I2FS pic.twitter.com/fcqQdFth8B
— 1-800 Contacts (@1800CONTACTS) July 30, 2014
But pricing experts say unilateral pricing is not always bad for consumers.
"They can compete on other things," said Barbara Sicalides, a partner and antitrust expert at the law firm, Pepper Hamilton. Companies like Bose use unilateral pricing to maintain cachet. Others, like Samsung, use minimum prices to help combat "showrooming," helping stores staffed with knowledgeable salespeople compete with online sellers.
"One benefit is that you're going to have more services provided to you when you buy some very complex products," says John Zhang, a pricing expert and professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
But buying contacts is different. Your doctor has already told you what to buy, and gets paid separately for the exam.
Eliminating discounts may make you more willing to buy directly from the optometrist. That's the accusation made by contact lens discounters like 1-800-CONTACTS.
At the hearing, Dr. Millicent Knight, Johnson & Johnson Vision Care's head of professional affairs, said the new pricing is simpler and cheaper for most. It eliminates cumbersome rebates, and has "a price that is actually lower than the current national average selling price to consumers," she said.
But that's just the average. For the roughly 10 percent of shoppers who buy online, according to Euromonitor, prices will likely go up.
And, all of this is perfectly legal, as long as manufacturers aren't actively coordinating prices among themselves or with retailers.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- The man accused of dragging another with his vehicle before lunging at Cape Coral Police on Christmas Eve appeared before a judge this morning.
David Westerman faces charges of aggravated battery for dragging a man with his truck, and also for assault on a police officer.
Police shot him after he allegedly ignored their commands to stop the vehicle, and attempted to hit an officer.
According to the State Attorney's Office, Westerman has disregard for the value of life and the value of police.
The defense said the victim, who was dragged by Westerman's truck, had several cases pending him.
Westerman is not allowed any contact with the victim, and will be held without bond.
His next court date is January 27th.
