Why would you join in our Old City Tour insteed of just walking around on your own?
Mey be we should fist point out that averge age of the moments that you're going to visit over 1000 year in th Old City. Does it start to attract your attencion ? Imagine you're in the Hagia Sophia on your own and reading your guide book: "The marble jar was brought from Pergamon during the reign of Sultan Murad III. Orginally from the Hellenistic period, it was carved from single block of marble." Which jar? Where it is? Don't lough, it's serios, you're in a building over 2500 square meters. Or you're in the Blue Mosque and still reading. "The most inportant element in the interior of the mosque is the hirab." Well ! Is there a sing pointing to the mihrab?
These are only few examples to clarify a professional guide wold be how important while you're visiting the Old City. But you should aslo consider about lo huge cue in front of the Hagia Sophia and Topkapı Palace ticket booth. This is surely annoying to spend hours in the cue if you're visiting Istanbul for a limited time. But don't worry ! You will override the cue once you enjoy our tour. We're professional pass for museums to not stick in the cue.

JDRF, the Government, and Adults with Type 1 Diabetes
Although I was diagnosed at age 8, I spent most of my childhood pretty much oblivious to diabetes advocacy. My family raised money for the annual Walk to Cure Diabetes, but that was it. Only in high school did I become more aware of the devastating impact that diabetes has on people. I applied to be a JDRF Children's Congress delegate at age 15, and in June 2001, my mother and I traveled to Washington,…Read more »

Syrian army troops have killed 175 opposition fighters, many of them linked to al-Qaeda-linked groups, in an ambush described as one of the deadliest attacks by government forces near Damascus, according to state media.
An opposition group alleged that Wednesday dawn's ambush was carried out by the Lebanese Hezbollah group, which has been instrumental in helping President Bashar al-Assad's regime push back rebels entrenched in the suburbs of the Syrian capital.
Syrian state news agency SANA quoted a field commander in the Eastern Ghouta area as saying most of the rebels killed in the assault near Oteibah lake, southeast of Damascus, belonged to the al-Qaeda-linked Nusra Front.
The report claimed several of those killed were foreign fighters who came to Syria from Saudi Arabia, Chechnya and Qatar.
The agency posted several photographs on its website showing dozens of bodies of men, some with leg wounds, lying in a dirt track of an open field.
Some were wearing fatigues, but most wore civilian clothes and appeared to have been carrying bags of clothes and bottles of water that were scattered on the ground.
Activists told Al Jazeera the fighters were killed while trying to cross from the eastern side of Damascus to Adra, north of the city, using "a risky road" because of an ongoing government siege.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least 152 opposition fighters were killed, most of them Nusra Front and other fighters from allied brigades.
Reinforcing that report, Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV aired exclusive footage of what it said was the ambush, showing at least two large bombs that were detonated along the route used by the opposition fighters.
An army colonel told the Lebanon-based Al-Mayadeen channel that his troops acted on intelligence and the rebels lost "more than 150 men".
Syria's pro-government Al-Ikhbariya channel aired its own footage of the aftermath, showing soldiers milling about as dozens of bodies of rebels lay scattered on the ground.
The station also broadcast images of what it said were rebels' weapons, confiscated by the army.
Delegates' kin arrested
In another development, a US administration official said on Wednesday that the Syrian regime had arrested relatives of the opposition's delegation to the peace talks in Geneva earlier this month.
The US was "outraged" by reports that the Syrian government "has arrested family members of the Syrian opposition coalition delegation to the Geneva II peace talks, designated delegates as terrorists, and seized delegates' assets," Jen Psaki, State Department spokeswoman, said.
"We call on the regime to immediately and unconditionally release all those unfairly arrested."
Among those held was Mahmoud Sabra, the brother of Geneva delegation member Mohammed Sabra.
Through such actions the Syrian regime was "not only defying the international community but also seeking to suppress the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people", Psaki said.
A second round of the UN-led talks in the Swiss city, dubbed Geneva II, broke down in acrimony on February 15, only weeks after the rival parties sat down in January for the first time in the three-year civil war to seek a political settlement.
So far no date has been set for the talks to resume.
Meanwhile, in Damascus, Assad held talks on Alaeddin Boroujerdi, head of the influential Iranian parliamentary committee on national security and foreign policy.
Later Bouroujerdi said he discussed the latest military developments with Syrian officials.
Also on Wednesday, the international mission to rid Syria of its chemical weapons by June 30 said that a batch of sulphur mustard, widely known as mustard gas, was shipped out of the country.
Sigrid Kaag, head of the joint operation by the UN and the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, called for Syria to continue its efforts to relinquish its arsenal "in a safe, secure and timely manner, through systematic, predictable and high-volume movements".
The mission to eliminate Syria's chemical stockpile said the Assad government has missed at least two deadlines in the past two months to remove chemicals.
Separately, Chris Gunness of the UNRWA relief agency said a humanitarian team was permitted to work from one of its facilities in Yarmouk, a besieged Palestinian district of Damascus, for the first time since December 2012.
He called this "a highly encouraging step towards re-establishing full services and humanitarian access to Yarmouk" and said 450 food parcels were distributed "without the involvement of third parties".
Yarmouk refugee camp, which houses about 18,000 Palestinians and an unknown number of Syrians, has seen some of the worst fighting in the capital, leading to severe food shortages and widespread hunger.
More than 100 people have died in camp of starvation and hunger-related illnesses, according to the UN.

Latest Memo Pad Articles
BILLIONAIRES, STILL: If anyone needed reminding that these are tough times for billionaires too, Forbes' annual billionaire list, which has shrunk from 1,125 to 793, was released Wednesday evening. One of those left out this time? Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, presumably because of shifting valuations of his company amid worries about monetizing social media.
Even those who kept a spot on the list saw their fortunes diminished, however. LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton's Bernard Arnault is number 15 on the list at $16.5 billion, versus the $25.5 billion Forbes estimated on the 2008 list. L'Oréal heiress Liliane Bettencourt placed 21st on the list, with estimated net worth of $13.4 billion. Last year, the magazine guessed her wealth at $22.9 billion. Giorgio Armani and Ralph Lauren tied for 224th on the list, with $2.8 billion each, down from $5 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively, according to the 2008 list.
Brothers Donald and S.I. Newhouse Jr., whose holdings include Condé Nast Publications (parent company of WWD), are jointly listed at the 132nd spot, with $4 billion in estimated net worth — half of what Forbes estimated last year. They tied with News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch, whose fortune also declined by about 50 percent. William Randolph Hearst 3rd, whose family owns the Hearst Corp., was billionaire number 430, with an estimated $1.7 billion. (Last year, the magazine pegged his fortune at $2.4 billion.)
Gaining a spot in the top 10 was Spanish fashion entrepreneur Amancia Ortega, whose $18.3 billion fortune was partly made from Zara, and who was down only slightly (relatively speaking) from the $20.2 billion estimated in 2008.

Johnson Publishing Gets Credit Infusion
Results have been mixed as company attempts to "reposition" itself.
Johnson Publishing has secured a line of credit as it continues to "reposition" itself in the marketplace.
The company behind popular African-American titles Ebony and Jet announced it has agreed to a revolving credit facility with Gibraltar Business Capital. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"As the curator of the African-American experience—past, present and future—we are thrilled to work with Gibraltar Business Capital as we reposition this iconic firm," says Desiree Rogers, CEO of Johnson Publishing, in a statement.
Linda Johnson Rice, chairman of Johnson Publishing, adds: "This relationship will allow our company to execute our strategic goals, strengthen our brands and lead to future growth."
This isn't the only weighty financial move Johnson Publishing has made recently. The company sold a minority stake to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. in 2011, though exact terms were not disclosed; it sold its historic Chicago headquarters a year before that.
While the plans moving forward from here are vague—Rogers and Rice were unavailable for comment—the J.P. Morgan investment was accompanied by attempts to bolster editorial and cosmetic products (Johnson Publishing also owns a beauty division, Fashion Fair). Ebony and Jet were both redesigned in the last two years.
The publications have had mixed results however. Circulation and ad pages have each gradually trended upward for Ebony, but Jet has suffered double-digit losses in both categories since mid-2011, according to the Alliance for Audited Media and PIB.
Ad pages have fared especially poorly for the title, down more than 25 percent, partially due to a frequency reduction. Published 39 times a year in 2010, Jet plans to put out just 20 issues this year. Both magazines have been significantly discounted, as well.

Cheap Trick and Pat Benatar (featuring Neal Giraldo) hit the Pearl at the Palms Hotel & Casino over the weekend, giving fans "a powerful show," according to the Las Vegas Sun.
CT played a set full of hits including "The Flame," "On Top of the World" and "I Want You To Want Me," and also reworked a version of the Big Star song "In the Street."
Benatar and Giraldo began by telling the audience they'd be "guinea pigs tonight," before playing one song from every era of their existence. Benatar told the crowd "either you'll drop dead or we will," in reference to the group's long career of hits.
The couple also told stories between songs on the setlist, which included "Heartbreaker," "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" and "We Belong."

Ala court rejects appeal by death row inmate
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The Alabama Supreme Court is turning away an appeal by a death row inmate from Madison County.
The justices on Friday refused to consider a new trial for 36-year-old Jason Michael Sharp.
Sharp is on death row at Holman prison after being convicted of capital murder in 2006 in the slaying of Tracy Morris.
Morris was sexually assaulted and stabbed to death in 1999.
A state appeals court ordered a new trial for Sharp but reversed itself last year. His appeal centered on whether prosecutors improperly removed blacks as jurors in Sharp's trial.
Sharp is white and so was his victim.

It's hard to tell which gets noticed first, the great graphics or the sense of humor. The opening is a does-it-better-than-star- wars cut-scene where our heroes go catapulting through a futuristic rush-hour on a rocket sled, and things just get more visually attractive from there. The overall future/cartoon aesthetic comes across just gorgeously on 1080p, and all the animations are as smooth as they are polished.
And then you get to use the weapons! From the relatively prosaic fire-blaster and grenade launcher you start with, you swiftly build an arsenal of supremely destructive energy-whips, beam-cannons, multiple rocket-launchers, and all-powerful world-destroying rhino-guns which all pack a satisfyingly destructive punch. The auto-upgrading experience mechanism just adds to the fun as you find your favorite guns becoming more powerful as you use them.
But then these are all wrapped up in a well executed story package that has the right blend of excitement, pacing, and whimsy to make the game outstanding on basically every front.
There are downsides, sure. It's a hair on the easy side (though the achievements can make it less so). But you'll be having too much fun to care too much.
The good: unbelievable polish in every aspect. good controls, great weapons, and a downright excellent story. plus the ratchet and clank sense of humor remains intact.
the bad: the game is on the easy side until you re-play it in the challenge mode.
Bottom Line: it's definitely a PS3 classic.

This game is probably best if you've never played a R&C game before. Or if you're a youngster.
These days I look for games that WOW me, and R&C Future didn't at all. The PS2 games are absolute gems. Future just fell a little flat.
I get the feeling that, at some point, they'll build an all new R&C that really feels polished and well conceptualized -- a true cartoon game for grown ups. But R&C Future isn't it.
Definitely worth a rental though.

You are Ratchet, a furry fox/cat like creature with a love of cartoonish weapons and a robot sidekick who can transform himself into all sorts of helpful gadgets, and who normally rides on your back like a backpack.
What makes this game so much fun are the different variety of weapons and how they mutate as you gain experience with them. I mean, who wouldn't want a remote-control tornado? Especially when you can control where it goes by tipping the controller while you make ratchet run around in other directions? It's fun to go through the game the second time on challenge mode and upgrade these weapons still further.
The environments are colorful and fantastic and so fun to explore. I particularly enjoyed the planet of the dinosaur-like creatures, especially because Klank tranforms into wings and you can glide all over the map tipping the controller like you are controlling the glide.
Interspersed are hilarious cut-scenes and star wars-like space combat sequences.
This is the first video game in over a year that I thought was fun enough to be replayed. And that's saying something, because I go through games like potato chips.

You really have to experience this-- some of the later planets you visit are so gorgeous, the stuff in the background, the skies, the backdrops, the sheer size of everything.
The writing is great, the humor is fun, the characters are good.
The framerate is steady, and it is amazing how much stuff is happening at once. On the pirate level, I looked up in the sky, and it's this roiling, cloudy sky, like we've all seen in fps'.
But there's like 5 levels of sky, and they're not flat, they're like these diaphanous ribbons, flowing along, at different depths, and frequencies, colors. And that's just the sky.
This game shows that the holy grail of "pixar-like" videogames is now upon us.
I went out and bought it, and it was worth every penny, gotta send the rental back for y'all!

First Impressions

From the start the game teaches you how to play. While most games have tutorials, R&C does not, but it does tell you along the way. The whole first mission you learn almost everything you need to know but it plays better than a tutorial. Don't be fooled by its cartoony nature however, this game is no walk in the park. Sure I may not be the best player in the world, but I would think with at least 15 years gaming experience (That's right, no life) that R&C would be a breeze. I was defiently wrong, I have died numerous times throughout my adventures. Though R&C doesn't have a penalty system like some games, it does however use save spots where you are returned to (With everything you had upon dying).
From there, the gameplay is smooth, nice story, and very entertaining. I didn't notice any glitches and was overall very impressed for my first time playing a R&C title. They say that first impressions are important, well Ratchet And Clank: Tools of Destruction made a great first impression to me, so I will go with the crowd on this one and slap a big fat (9). Hope you take the time to rent it and enjoy it yourself.
Very Good
Very good platformer.

They have delivered top notch graphics. I have a Sony 1080p, and am just blown away by how awesome this game looks, nothing thus far can match this game!
Humor is a must, even for us adults, and this certainly entertains with some all around humor for everyone! The kids love the pirate scenes.
Game play is smooth...and unlike past R&C where you could spend mind numbing hours trying to gather up nut's and bolts, this game moves along allowing you to advance both in skill and money. It's slightly easier than previous R&C games...but given the detail, humor, maps, and "special" items it's been great fun...without the extra frustration!
The game is very playable, with little curve in learning it....making it fun for all ages!
Gimie them bolts!

Loads of weapons and tons of baddies to take your frustration out on, overall the game was a little short without replaying it that is. Game defently has replay value.
I gave it a 9 because the final boss was disappointing, the whole fight I was thinking in my head "Please don't be the final boss" over and over.
R&C never disapoints and in this instance it stands strong.
Just Awesome!!!

Just plain good single player fun!. In an industry saturated with the FPS... this is well deserved... and will go down in PS3 history as one of the best games the PS3 has to offer!
BRAVO Ratchet, Insomniac and SONY!
A disappointing performance from a series fav..

Gameplay: It's the same old, same old in this department (not that it's a bad thing!) You'll be beating baddies with all sorts of new weapons, and some that have clearly been inspired by past titles. You'll soon find which weapons will be most helpful during the game. I personally found it better to upgrade the core of weapons I used most in contrast to spacing it out to all of them. One of the most annoying aspects in the game though is the sixaxis controls. They're poorly done in all scenarios, and quite honestly, are boring.
Graphics: This is where the title excelled. The graphics are smooth, and the environments are vibrant. It doesn't differ much from past titles, and old fans (and new ones) will highly enjoy the differing backgrounds on all of the planets.
Story: I liked the idea of finding out about Ratchet's past when I first heard about the game, but for me, it all seemed to drag on throughout the experience. One thing I've always admired about this series (and found in this title as well) is the wit and humor included within the cut scenes and off-remarks during gameplay. Some of our favorite characters return, and new not-so-notable ones are introduced. Overall, it's a decent job on story, but it left me unsatisfied.
Sadly, I have come to the conclusion that I've outgrown this game. The graphics are stunning, the story is decent, but the gameplay gets so mundane considering it's a cinch to beat. There's variety, but there's no challenge. I don't even have the desire to go back and beat it on hard!
My recommendation: If you're 13 or younger, it's a definite rent. Any older and this game, despite it's vivacity and charm, might be too boring in its ease.
Yup, it's a PS3 Insomniac Game

The camera control can get a little poor, just like any game. This generally happens if you're up against a wall. Other than that, I haven't really had any problems and I'm currently about half way through the game (in my estimation).
The only other thing I'll say is that some of the music is a little cheesy. This is especially true when you find the Titanium Bolts (secret items). It seems like they did it almost on purpose, making it similar to Windows 3.1 music, but it's still a little too...well done, in order to be sure.
I've read reviews which complain about the difficulty level being too easy. Yes, it's a bit easy (not incredibly so, but still a bit easy). That's if you stick to the main quest without seeking any of the extra's, which take a little more work.
That's about all I've found which is negative. The graphics are amazing, whether you're playing on a standard definition TV or HDTV. The detail level is surreal, with many things happening in the background, most of which are completely interactive. For instance, the random flying cars can be blown down with your weapons.
The best aspect, however, is the combination of balanced weapons, as well as fairly tight control (even the sections which require sixaxis movement are fairly well done). I played the first Ratchet and Clank game, as well as the PSP iteration, but haven't touched the series elsewhere. The weapons have always been a strong point in this series, but they are much improved in R&C: ToD.
The best part is that they're balanced really well. For instance, if it fires quickly, it won't be as powerful and vice versa. In addition, most weapons serve a specific purpose. This is one of the few games where I actually enjoy every weapon.
All around, this is a great game, and you owe it to yourself to at least rent it if you own a PS3.
Is that a PS3 game???

Starting with the amazing graphics and fantastic sense of humor that we expect from the series, this is by far the best R&C ever. Great game play which has not change a bit ( for good), great voice acting, and a wonderful music score that take you through the ups and downs of the story line this is a must own for the PS3.Thank you Sony for let us believed once again and give us hope to look forward to things to come

I am a fan of the earlier incarnations as well as the first two Jak and Dexters, which I associate as great examples of this gameplay, but this game was like using my head to break a piñata, lots of colors and sweet treats but I can't manage any enthusiasm to do it again.

Dynegy Inc. (DYN:US) reported third-quarter net income of $22 million on revenue of $446 million, three days after the last of the companies in the power producer's group emerged from bankruptcy reorganization.
For the three quarters ended Sept. 30, the net loss was $265 million, Houston-based Dynegy said yesterday in a regulatory filing. Revenue for the nine months totaled $1.07 billion.
In August, Dynegy got permission from the bankruptcy judge to sell its non-operating Danskammer plant for $3.5 million and the assumption of environmental cleanup obligations. The collapse of a sale to another purchaser disabled the four so-called operating companies from implementing their plan until Nov. 4, although it was approved when the judge signed a confirmation order in March.
The Dynegy parent previously left bankruptcy under a separate plan.
For a rundown on the two bankruptcies and sale of the last plants, click here for the Aug. 23 Bloomberg bankruptcy report.
Dynegy Holdings and the four operating companies filed under Chapter 11 in November 2011. The ultimate parent Dynegy Inc. filed under Chapter 11 in July 2012 and emerged from bankruptcy along with Dynegy Holdings in October.
Dynegy rose 1.2 percent to $19.73 yesterday on the New York Stock Exchange. The shares reached a 12-month closing high of $24.76 on May 21 and a low of $17.96 on Nov. 11, 2012.
The case is In re Dynegy Holdings LLC, 11-bk-38111, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York (Poughkeepsie). The case for the parent is In re Dynegy Inc., 12-bk-36728, in the same court.
Suntech Seeks Dismissal of Involuntary U.S. Bankruptcy
Suntech Power Holdings Co., once the world's largest solar-panel maker, filed court papers urging a judge to dismiss the involuntary Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition filed in mid-October by four holders of some of the $541 million in convertible notes.
Based in Wuxi, China, Suntech advances several reasons why the involuntary bankruptcy is defective. Most prominently, Suntech says that at least two of the four involuntary petitioners acquired their claims expressly to file an involuntary petition, an action prohibited in bankruptcy law.
Suntech points out that none of the petitioning noteholders filed a required statement saying they hadn't purchased the debt to file an involuntary petition. The petitioning noteholders include Trondheim Capital Partners LP and Michael Meixler.
The court should dismiss the case "in the interests of creditors and the debtor" under Section 305 of the Bankruptcy Code to ensure there is no disruption of ongoing negotiations with holders of a majority or more of the notes, Suntech said.
Dismissal of the involuntary petition will come to bankruptcy court for a hearing on Dec. 12.
Suntech says the four creditors own only 0.27 percent of outstanding debt. Suntech defaulted on the notes in March.
New York was also the wrong place to file, Suntech says, because the company has no place of business or assets in the U.S.
Instead, the New York court should allow Suntech to proceed with the bankruptcy it filed voluntarily in the Cayman Islands, the company said. Eventually, Suntech said, the four creditors will be allowed to vote on a reorganization to be proposed in the Cayman Islands, where the company is incorporated.

New Filings
Atlantic Club Casino Files in New Jersey to Sell Soon
The Atlantic Club Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, filed a Chapter 11 petition on Nov. 6 in Camden, New Jersey, designed to sell the property "in the near term."
The property has 801 rooms, 75,000 square feet of gaming space, and seven restaurants. Last year, revenue of $103.8 million resulted in a $43.3 million net loss. For the first nine months of this year, revenue of $88.6 million threw off a $7.4 million loss before interest, taxes, and deprecation.
The ultimate parent, Resorts International Holding LLC, acquired the project along with three others in 2005 from Caesar's Entertainment Inc. and Harrah's Entertainment Inc. The others were sold or given to secured lenders, leaving Atlantic Club with no secured debt.
When a sale fell through this year, the owners saw no alternative to bankruptcy given their unwillingness to fund losses and buyers' reluctance to purchase the property without protection from bankruptcy court. A sale while in bankruptcy requires approval from state gaming regulators.
Liabilities include $5.7 million in taxes and $1.7 million on capital leases. There is $9 million in accounts payable and $16.6 million in accrued expenses on the balance sheet, according to a court filing.
The casino rebranded itself for appeal to local gamblers, devoting 70 percent of the gaming space to so-called penny slots.
The bankruptcy will be financed with a $15 million secured loan provided by an affiliate of Northlight Financial LLC. The loan will pay 11.75 percent interest.
The Revel casino, also in Atlantic City, emerged from Chapter 11 in May with a reorganization plan approved by the bankruptcy judge in Camden.
The assets and debt of the Atlantic Club are both less than $50 million, according to the petition
The case is In re RHI Acquisitions NJ LLC, 13-34483, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of New Jersey (Camden).
Indianapolis Hotel Owner Files to Stop Foreclosures
The owner of the Hilton Garden Inn hotel in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, and six other hotels owned by Bharat N. Patel filed petitions for Chapter 11 protection on Nov. 4 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Indianapolis to stop lender National Republic Bank from installing receivers in foreclosure proceedings.
The Chicago-based bank has a disputed mortgage in the amount of $21.3 million on the Mount Laurel property, according to a filing in bankruptcy court. Taking all seven hotels together, the bank is owed $121 million, National Republic said in a court filing.
The New Jersey hotel opened in October 2011. It has 140 rooms and is 16 miles (26 kilometers) from Center City, Philadelphia.
Patel owns three dozen hotels in the U.S.
The bank is opposing the use of cash representing collateral for the mortgages.
The petition lists the assets and debt as both exceeding $10 million on the Mount Laurel property.
The first-filed case is In re Mt. Laurel Lodging Associates LLC, 13-bk-11697, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Indiana (Indianapolis).
Bankruptcy Filings Show More Signs of Bottoming Out
Bankruptcy filings in the U.S. remain on track to end up at the fewest in five years. Statistics in October suggest there might be an uptick in consumer bankruptcies in coming months.
The trend for business bankruptcies and corporate reorganization remains down.
The approximately 90,000 bankruptcies of all types in October brought the year's total to 892,000, a 13 percent decline from the same period last year, according to data compiled from court records by Epiq Systems Inc. (EPIQ:US)
October's total filings were 17 percent more than September on a daily basis, although 2.5 percent fewer than the same month in 2012.
Suggesting filings might mount in coming months, October recorded the fourth highest this year and the most since May.
The approximately 3,500 commercial bankruptcies of all types in October were the second-fewest in 2013 and 27 percent lower than October 2012.
October this year had the fewest Chapter 11s of any October since the recession. Chapter 11 is where larger companies reorganize or sell assets. October basically tied for the fewest Chapter 11s in 2013. Chapter 11 filings can be more volatile, because one company may file with 50 affiliates and each counts as a separate filing statistically.
The states with the most bankruptcies per capita in October were Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. That order has held since earlier this year, when Georgia replaced Alabama in second place.
Bankruptcies throughout the U.S. declined 14 percent in 2012 to 1.19 million from 1.38 million the year before.
The 2011 figure represented a 12 percent decline from the 1.56 million in 2010, the most since the record 2.1 million in 2005. In the last two weeks before the laws tightened in 2005, 630,000 American sought bankruptcy protection.
Bankruptcy Video
Listening in the Dark at the NCBJ; Executive Benefits
Bloomberg Law's Lee Pacchia asks Bloomberg News bankruptcy columnist Bill Rochelle how he responded when the lights went out during his luncheon keynote speech at the annual convention of the National Conference of Bankruptcy Judges last week in Atlanta.
In the video, like his talk at the NCBJ, Rochelle analyzes the two bankruptcy cases coming to the U.S. Supreme Court this term. He explains why the seemingly less important case, Law v. Siegel, may end up being more significant than Executive Benefits Insurance Agency v. Arkison, dealing with whether someone can waive the right for a final ruling by a life-tenured federal district judge.
Rochelle believes Law could be a watershed in federal jurisprudence if the opinion subjugates federal courts' historical equity powers to the plain language of an imperfect statute.
The video concludes with a proposal for a federal Court of Bankruptcy Appeals to resolve the 10 circuit splits that arose in the last year alone. Having uniformity in bankruptcy law throughout the country would bring an added benefit by deterring forum shopping, Bill says. To listen, click here.
Advance Sheets
Defaulting Is No Waiver of Stern v. Marshall Rights
A default judgment doesn't provide implied consent for the entry of a final judgment in bankruptcy court on an issue where the bankruptcy judge otherwise doesn't have final adjudicatory power, U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos ruled on Nov. 6.
The trustee for a trust created under a confirmed Chapter 11 plan sued in bankruptcy court alleging fraudulent transfer claims against company insiders. None of the defendants answered the complaint after it was served twice by mail.
After a default judgment was entered, the defendants in substance made a motion to vacate the default. In the process they raised a defense about the power of the bankruptcy court under the Supreme Court's Stern v. Marshall opinion two years ago.
The bankruptcy judge denied the motion for rehearing and entered judgment. On appeal, the defendants won.
The trustee argued that defaulting amounted to implied consent waiving defenses under Stern. Ramos disagreed.
Ramos said that courts finding waiver had cases where the Stern defense wasn't raised until after trial and lengthy pretrial proceedings. Thus, Ramos said there was no implied consent for entering a final judgment in bankruptcy court.
Consequently, Ramos treated the bankruptcy court's rulings as proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law, not as final judgments reviewed under Section 158(a)(1) of the Judiciary Code.
Ramos went on to find that the default judgment should have been vacated. He sent the case back to bankruptcy court for further proceedings because vacating the default didn't necessarily mean that the defendants had valid defenses defeating the lawsuit.
The case is Ariston Properties LLC v. Messer (In re FKF3 LLC), 13-bk-03310, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).
Web Addresses, Phone Number Aren't Estate Property
A competitor has no standing to reopen a bankruptcy and have the trustee sell property that wasn't scheduled and therefore not abandoned automatically, U.S. District Judge Liam O'Grady in Alexandria, Virginia, ruled yesterday in overturning a decision in bankruptcy court.
A company that ended up in Chapter 11 allegedly didn't schedule all of its property, such as computer servers, Web addresses and telephone numbers. A competitor, after the case was closed, filed papers to reopen the case.
The Chapter 7 trustee later held an auction where the competitor came out on top with an offer of $28,000, outbidding officers of the bankrupt company who had opened a business of their own using property they believed to be abandoned.
O'Grady first ruled that the competitor lacked the standing, thus invalidating the subsequent sale.
The judge next examined individual items of property to determine if they were or weren't scheduled and thus abandoned.
He said that servers fall within the rubric of "computers" listed on the schedules and therefore were abandoned and beyond the ability of the trustee to sell.
Looking to Virginia law, O'Grady said that a customer has no property interest in a Web address or phone number, thus taking those items beyond the trustee's ability to sell. He said that "subjective value does not equate to ownership under Virginia law."
Even if the Web name and phone numbers were property and weren't scheduled, they were executory contracts with the service providers automatically rejected when they weren't assumed. Since the underlying contracts went up in smoke, there was nothing for the trustee to sell later.
The case is Alexandria Surveys LLC v. Alexandria Consulting Group LLC, (In re Alexandria Surveys International LLC, 13-bk-00891, U.S. District Court, Eastern of District Virginia (Alexandria).

Athena Silver Provides Update On Langtry Project
BOULDER, Colo., March 19, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Athena Silver Corporation (OTCBB:AHNR) is pleased to announce its completion of February 2013 obligations to the Strachan Trust with a payment of $125,000 and the issuance of 1,000,000 shares as required under the recently amended Lease/Option. Details of the transaction were described in the company's 8-K and November 29, 2012 press release. The Lease/Option amendment substantially reduces future lease and royalty obligations to the Strachan Trust for Langtry and calls for other payments to Strachan that will allow Athena to fully capitalize on the opportunity to reduce lease and royalty obligations on Langtry.
Athena also announced an update on its metallurgical work program at METCON Research in Tucson, Arizona. The bulk samples collected for the new tests were below the cut-off grade as the project resource is currently envisioned but a bottle roll test on the low-grade ore still yielded a silver recovery of approximately 45% after 96 hours of agitated leach with relatively low consumption of cyanide.
"We plan to do further analytical work using cuttings from our 2010/2011 confirmation drilling that will give us better control of the average head grade being tested and conduct more bottle roll tests at various head grades. One of our objectives is to investigate further the optimum level of crushing required to maximize our silver recovery," said John Power, President of Athena Silver Corporation.CALICO MINING DISTRICT UPDATE The Calico District continues to carry a lot of interest with major exploration firms aggressively exploring on adjacent claims: Adjacent to Athena claims to the Southeast , Pan American Silver Corporation (Nasdaq:PAAS) continues to advance its Waterloo silver project in the Calico District, which Pan American has stated contains a large historical mineral resource estimate in excess of 100 million ounces of silver. Pan American has also indicated that it recently finished a Phase II drill program and is waiting for final assay results but so far it looks very similar, maybe slightly higher than the old drilling that was been done in the '60s by Asarco. According to Pan American, they are budgeting approximately $3.6 million in 2013 on its confirmation drilling program, further metallurgical studies and a scoping study with a goal of publishing an updated mineral resource in 2013. Athena's Langtry project together with Pan American's Waterloo project are classified together as a "single significant deposit" by the United States Geological Survey which maintains a database of significant domestic resources for precious metals.

Texas A&M-Kingsville researcher receives Fulbright Award to study in Chile
KINGSVILLE - March 28, 2014
Julie Navejar
email@example.com or 361-593-2590
A wildlife researcher and faculty member at Texas A&M University-Kingsville has been awarded a prestigious Fulbright Award to study and teach in Chile. Dr. Fidel Hernández holds the Alfred C. Glassell Jr. Endowed Professorship in Quail Research and is a research scientist with the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute (CKWRI) which is part of the Dick and Mary Lewis Kleberg College of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Human Sciences. He will be going to the southern region of Patagonia in Punta Arenas, Chile from August 2014 through January 2015.
"I am very honored and humbled by this award," Hernández said. "It represents an important milestone for me professionally. The scholarship, however, represents so much more than an award. It represents the fulfillment of a personal and professional passion of mine to learn of the conservation of natural resources of remote and foreign landscapes while contributing to the betterment of their communities."
"There are few honors a person can receive as noteworthy as this one," said Dr. Fred Bryant, Leroy G. Denman Jr. Endowed Director of Wildlife Research for the CKWRI. "We are so proud of Fidel for this accomplishment, his recognition, and the prestige it brings to the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute."
"This is a tremendous honor for Fidel, and it reflects the quality of the faculty in the college and the university," said. Dr. Allen Rasmussen, dean of the Kleberg College of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Human Sciences. "Because of the caliber of work he does, it will make other fellows and the organization look to our students and faculty.
"This will extend way beyond his work in Chile because the Fulbright program creates an international network with all of the Fulbright Fellows. He will become part of this network over the next year. This will link A&M-Kingsville to this network and give both our students and other faculty more opportunities and exposure," Rasmussen said. "Just as important, Fidel will bring back experiences that will help our students better understand very different ecosystems and his new network will improve our students' study-abroad opportunities."
"I first visited South America five years ago, and I became fascinated by the continent. Its culture, history and ecology simply invigorated me," Hernández said. "I returned twice after my initial visit and now have traveled extensively throughout the continent. Although my travel was during my summer vacation and for personal enjoyment, I relished the learning experience and incorporated the ecology of the continent into my rangeland and wildlife ecology courses at A&M-Kingsville. I wanted to formally mature this learning experience beyond summer trips."
Hernández will be teaching a graduate course at the University of Magallanes (UM) called Ecology and Management of Wild Lands and Animals. "The course represents a synthesis of information from four courses taught at A&M-Kingsville. The objective is to integrate information on soils, vegetation, biodiversity and human subsistence into a holistic, sustainable view of ecosystems," he said.
His research subject will focus on the guanaco/sheep conflict that is occurring in that region of Chile. Guanaco (pronounced wanako) is a wild, llama-type animal with very fine wool. Hernández said guanaco populations have been declining severely in Patagonia since the introduction of domestic sheep during the 1800s. Both the guanaco and sheep compete for the same pastures.
"Conservation agencies recently have promoted the sustainable harvest of guanaco wool as a solution to the conflict. Their wool can be harvested by live shearing and often sold at much higher prices than sheep wool," he said. "However, social and ecological factors limit sustainable harvest of guanaco wool as a conservation tool for the species."
"People living off the land still view guanacos as a competitor with sheep, despite their economic value. They also believe the costs of conservation are borne solely by them while the benefits are enjoyed by outsiders. I will be investigating the community attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs toward livestock grazing and conservation to identify incentives for, and barriers to, guanaco conservation," Hernández added.
And after his work in Chile is done? "One goal of mine is to develop a field-abroad course to Chile where A&M-Kingsville students will be exposed to international issues and learn of rangeland and wildlife ecology in a foreign country," Hernández said. "I also wish to build upon this initial research to create collaborative research opportunities for faculty and student exchange between universities.
"The university houses the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute and the King Ranch Institute for Ranch Management that engage graduate and undergraduate students in a wide variety of studies on rangeland, wildlife and ranching issues. The University of Magallanes houses the Institute of Patagonia that investigates natural resource issues of the region. Valuable opportunities exist for student and faculty exchange between the two universities," he added.

Acer Travelmate 8104 - ATI Graphics card, widescreen problems with 1680 x1040 res.
I had a look on the ATI site which talks about linux drivers but I am afraid that I do nto know how to install these. I tried to follow the instructions but I just get an error message. I downloaded the drivers on windows and tried to access them from FC3 but no luck.
The graphics card is a, ATI Mobility Radeon X700. It does not appear in the choice of cards in the system set up section and the display also does nto appear in the choice of options. So at the moment I am using linux with a generic set up.
Can someone give me some instructions to follow please so that I can use linux with 1680 x1010 screen resolition.
Many thanks for any ones help on this.
