The casing is pretty good in build and material. It doesn't feel cheap and rivals the real casing in every matter. Everything fits as intended. The accompanied buttons where pretty horrible overall as they gave out a mushy feeling to the controls, thus making them somewhat unresponsive. There's few oversights ... Read more

Great value for money. Case is a very high standard and finish is almost as good as the original (so close that most folks won;t be able to tell).

This item really does dress up your old drab DS and puts on a very good show. It is however a bear to get installed.

If you're bored of the current color of your DS lite, why not change it up with one of these? The only con was that I paid $20.98, vs. the current price. I suppose it was worth it then though.

Connect Women: Break the Isolation
2010 VOF Week 1
Connect Women: Break the Isolation
Zimbabweans have lived through extraordinary times. Our crisis has been analysed from every conceivable angle. People know that at the height of the crisis Zimbabwe had the record for the world's highest inflation, 5 billion percent. There was no food in the shops. Long queues were the norm. You saw a queue and joined it, only asking later what the queue was for. A queue meant there was sugar, or fuel or corn-meal or perhaps salt.
Stories that captured the lived reality of women's lives were few; their struggles over the last 10 years, their triumphs, their hopes and their dreams. These stories of needed to be told by women. Web 2.0 means that we can start telling the stories and shaping the news about my world, as experience it not as decided by editorial policy or limited by repressive legislation. This is what l find exciting about Web 2.0
The story for the media was that unemployment was at 80%. What it meant for women was that there was no money for maternity fees and therefore you had to give birth at home. The equivalent of 5, 75 seater bus loads of women were dying each year as a result of preventable complications. This information should have elicited outrage. It did not. I am hopeful that Web 2.0 will provide a platform for me to share, the reality of our different lives as women in Zimbabwe.
In March 2008, people voted, tired of the sewage, the bone dry water taps and the humiliation of fighting over bread. The vote was crucial. The result was violence. The beatings were called "re-education". People had the temerity to demand change. How wrong! How unthinkable! International media covered the violence. UNTOLD were women's experiences of violence. How rape was used to punish women in politics. They were punished for being daughters, wives and sisters of opposition "enemies" of the government. Later the stories came out, when it was too late for many to receive the emergency treatment to prevent HIV infection. Months later the pregnancies started showing. Homes and hearts are still breaking. The displacement continues as wives are chased away for having been raped. UNTOLD is the isolation and fear.
Women responded. Their advocacy organizations evolved into humanitarian agencies. We tried to reach out to sometimes nameless and faceless women in the outside world who could stand in solidarity. We desperately brainstormed on women in the UN, international media and international NGOs we could tell of our need. We needed material support, solidarity and an end to the deaths of women and children.
We are bracing ourselves for more elections in 2011. How do we multiply our capacities beyond Zimbabwe? How do we mobilize support to ensure that organizations of women are empowered to serve and save women? This is where my new community of women on World Pulse comes in to mobilize support and solidarity for women in Zimbabwe. Connecting women's capacities.
Strong and Inspiring Post
Hi Catherine,
I am totally in awe of your inner strength and determination! I cannot imagine living in such a condition-where so much injustice occurs towards women and children as in your country. Indeed there are many parts of the world where women are subjected to such plights and it is up to them to strike back and to try to change their destiny as best as they can. People like you are an inspiration to others who suffer the same fate. Voicing out your intention and reaching out for women solidarity throughout the world through Web 2.0 can help open the eyes of others to act out and provide their support!

For years people have been questioning Janet Jackson about her body size (whether it be too big or too small) and with her new book, True You, the 40-year-old is finally ready to reveal her secrets.
In the book, the Grammy-winning singer writes about "my routine, my workout regimen, my nutrition. I wanted to talk about it," she says while talking to ABC News about her new movie, Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls, out November 5. Check out the full interview in the video below.
The youngest Jackson - who was often called "Dunk" by her brother Michael because her overweight shaped resembled that of a donkey - goes on to reveal the issues she has had with her body since adolescence. At 10 she was made her acting debut, getting as Penny in the hit '70s show Good Times. But "on our first day of shooting they bound my chest because they thought my breasts were too big. I was developing early. It made me feel that the way I am, it's not good enough."
This wasn't the first time Jackson's chest was an issue. Back in 2004 during the Super Bowl, the singer performed a duet with Justin Timberlake singing "Rock Your Body" in the halftime show. At the end of the song with the lyrics "Gonna have you naked by the end of this song" Timberlake tore off a part of her costume, exposing a pierced breast. The incident was described later as a wardrobe malfunction, but many TV viewers complained to the network who ultimately had to pay a half a million dollar fine.
Have you ever felt insecure about your body? Chime in below!

Snow Leopard Range
Fast Facts
- Type:
- Mammal
- Diet:
- Carnivore
- Size:
- 4 to 5 ft (1.2 to 1.5 m); Tail, 36 in (91 cm)
- Weight:
- 60 to 120 lbs (27 to 54 kg)
- Protection status:
- Endangered
- Size relative to a 6-ft (2-m) man:
These rare, beautiful gray leopards live in the mountains of Central Asia. They are insulated by thick hair, and their wide, fur-covered feet act as natural snowshoes. Snow leopards have powerful legs and are tremendous leapers, able to jump as far as 50 feet (15 meters). They use their long tails for balance and as blankets to cover sensitive body parts against the severe mountain chill.
Snow leopards prey upon the blue sheep (bharal) of Tibet and the Himalaya, as well as the mountain ibex found over most of the rest of their range. Though these powerful predators can kill animals three times their weight, they also eat smaller fare, such as marmots, hares, and game birds.
One Indian snow leopard, protected and observed in a national park, is reported to have consumed five blue sheep, nine Tibetan woolly hares, twenty-five marmots, five domestic goats, one domestic sheep, and fifteen birds in a single year.
As these numbers indicate, snow leopards sometimes have a taste for domestic animals, which has led to killings of the big cats by herders.
These endangered cats appear to be in dramatic decline because of such killings, and due to poaching driven by illegal trades in pelts and in body parts used for traditional Chinese medicine. Vanishing habitat and the decline of the cats' large mammal prey are also contributing factors.

The Chicago School Teachers Strike Reveals the Need For School Choice Comments
350,000 students are still out of school in Chicago. The Teachers Union called what the Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel referred to as a "strike of choice". The Mayor did not stop there, he added "And it's the wrong choice for children." The Mayor is correct. However, the right choice is school choice. Continue Reading

I agree with practically everything you said, the one thing that would still concern me if everything went the way you stated. That concern would be the Church taking taxpayer money for the parents choice of a Parochial school over the "public school" since it would be paid by taxpayers contributions, which would then allow the Government to have a say in the schools overall rules and regulations. It would give the government to much say in the way we run the schools and I think the government needs to stay out of the Religious institutions/schools. That's been the problem between the Churches and the State. You have the State controlling social issues or social charities you give them the power to rule against them. Those who feed from the troth will be forced to take what is given. Time to wake up!

Where are all the "compassionate and tolerant" liberals who believe in "choice?" Their problem is not that school choice is a threat to good governance, but it is a threat to government control over the minds of our impressionable children.

Kasoy, I agree, I do believe that if parents would like to send their children elsewhere, then their taxes should be cut accordingly so no tax credit etc has to given in the first place. I just wish there was a way to accomplish this without hurting the kids who remain. I think a strong public education system, if done properly, could be a huge asset to this country. Today that is very questionable.

This is the same comment I wrote in another article here on the same topic: The Fed is spending $10,540/student when some parents pay lower tuition to send their kids to Catholic schools. Isn't it time to wean the Fed out of public school funding? Either it could give vouchers or tax credit to parents who opt to place their kids in private school or home schooling. Our grandkids can get better education and moral values in Catholic schools. Deacon, you hit it right on the head!

The Liberty Movement is ALIVE!Submitted by PatriotsUnderGod on Fri, 04/05/2013 - 12:23
I just talked to Tom Woods on the phone 50 minutes ago... he was filling in for Peter Schiff once again on the radio and I called in...., what I just told him is, what this Liberty movement is doing right is pushing people towards self-education in American History with the same fervor we are buying up guns and ammunition!
(I plugged the Daily Paul too, because one fellow patriot here purchased me a gift membership to Tom Woods' Liberty Classroom and I am indeed making the MOST of it)
I told Tom that I became a critic of David Barton of Wallbuilders(and Fox News, and now Glen Beck FAME) as I saw David Barton clearly violate George Washington's admonition in his Farewell Address to "beware of the spirit of Party". David Barton for years has been giving seminars on American History to predominately fundamentalist Christians; he has one heck of a personal collection, and he personally inspired me to start my own collection of primary sources of American History.
Once Barton has won you over to his argument that "we've lost our way and moral underpinnings", he has enough sway & credibility to influence how you vote....granted, most of his audience are already the religious right and Christian Coalition folks from the 80's & 90's, but, anyone experiencing the common angst and FEAR that this ship is going down KNOWS the "rah rah Republican Party" crap is, and has been MORE statism and MORE spending since Ronald Reagan took office.
Now Tom Woods just assured me that David Barton is AGAINST Nullification, so, get yourself an audience of Christian Republicans and SCHOOL them on the issue!
The fact of the matter is, these churches, and their leadership, and their congregations full of conditioned and easily led conservative sheep are quite ignorant of one profound quote by Noah Webster that David Barton has on his website...which is... The Ecclesiastical Establishments of Europe that serve to support tyrannical government are NOT the Christian religion, but rather abuses and corruptions of it
Folks, its the churches that are NOT teaching their flocks American History; and our founding attitude that is opposed to centralization....and, unfortunately, the printing press is what the central/parent government has used to bribe, blind, and radically change our national identity to heap upon itself a benevolent dictatorship that is going to be extremely difficult and painful to throw off!
Self-education and re-instituting Statesmanship in representative government is what this Liberty movement is all about...and it begins with YOU personally...stop waiting to be lead, and LEAD yourself right where you are....we need courageous and confident men to stand up and stand out, not critics and doubters!
Now get busy, and get educated, and start debating , defending, and TEACHING what you learn...that's our fuel in the brushfire of Liberty Ron Paul has lit!
- Login to post comments
The ugly truths are being exposed...like it or not.
The whole issue of secrets and how we keep them is increasingly in the news, and because of the unprecedented access to information via the internet, we are headed for a major confrontation between the government and the public over the issue. The genie is out of the bottle and it's not going back. People need to turn away from fear and open their eyes.
I think we can come to a compromise.
The liberty movment is undead.
Free market capitalism isn't right for America because it works better. It's right because it's free (and it works better).

"We've moved beyond the Mises textbook. We're running in the open market." - Erik Voorhees
Am enjoying Liberty Classroom, too. Glad you stuck around to share these thoughts, by the way. :)
Because as long as there is a desire for liberty there will be a liberty movement. Liberty has been in the hearts and minds of humans since the beginning. It was a desire well before Ron Paul and it will continue well after Ron Paul.
It is not about politicians as no politician can deliver liberty.
Like you stated in your post, educate yourself, teach others and watch people wake up.
"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living."
― Dr. Seuss
The liberty movement is alive and well here in CO
It is very hard to keep up with at this point since it is moving so fast. I think that it has morphed into more local movements. Below is the facebook page for our non-profit group that I am the VP of. We have had great turnout to our events including the protest of Hickenlooper that made national headlines. We even have sherriffs protesting Obama's visit and are involved in our local sherriff's races.
As Judge Napolitano said
As Judge Napolitano said "Where is freedom? Freedom is in our hearts. If it dies there, forget it. No judge, no speech, no book, no cable tv, no legislature is going to bring it back. But if it lives in our hearts, no government can for very long, keep it away."

Thank you.

Makes 6 to 8 servings
Ingredientsadd to shopping list
- 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons dried herbes de Provence*
- 1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
- 2 (3 1/2-pound) chickens
- *This dried herb mixture can be found in the spice section of supermarkets and specialty foods stores. If unavailable, use a mix of dried thyme, basil, savory, and fennel seeds.
Place butter, herbes de Provence, and salt in small bowl; mash with fork until blended to thick granular paste. Starting at neck end of each chicken, carefully run fingers under skin of breasts to loosen. Starting at each side of main cavity, carefully run fingers under skin of thighs to loosen. Rub herb-seasoned butter on chicken under loosened skin and on outside of each chicken. Truss chickens by tying legs together and tying wings flush to sides. Enclose chickens in extralarge resealable plastic bags. Chill at least 6 hours. DO AHEAD Chickens can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated. Let chickens stand at room temperature about 30 minutes before cooking.
Remove spit from rotisserie attachment and prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread chickens on spit, pushing close to center. Reattach spit to motor. Place shallow disposable foil pan(s) under chickens for drips. Close grill, inserting stem of instant-read thermometer through hole in hood of grill to monitor temperature. Maintain temperature at around 400°F by opening vents to increase heat and closing vents to reduce heat. Cook chickens until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 170°F, about 50 minutes. Turn off grill, but do not open. Let chickens rest in covered grill 10 minutes.
Slide chickens off spit and onto platter. Cut each chicken into 6 or 8 pieces and arrange on platter.
TO GRILL A WHOLE CHICKEN WITHOUT A ROTISSERIE : If using a charcoal grill,arrange coals on either side of a disposable aluminum baking pan, dividing coals equally. If using a three-burner gas grill, light burners on left and right, leaving center burner off. If using a two-burner gas grill, light burner on side opposite disposable pan. Insert an instant-read thermometer into top vent of grill or place oven thermometer inside grill on grate over pan. Bring temperature to 350°F to 375°F. Place chicken on grate above pan. Close grill. Adjust grill vents or heat setting as needed to maintain temperature.

Asia Airfreight Terminal, an air cargo terminal based at the Hong Kong International Airport, reported that tonnage throughput in November was 69,150 metric tons (about 76,225 tons), rising 12 percent from November 2011.
In November, the terminal handled 49,887 metric tons of export cargo, up 13 percent year-over-year; and 18,869 metric tons of import cargo, increasing 9 percent from last year. Transshipment cargo volume was 395 metric tons, down 11 percent compared with the same month in 2011.
From January to November, total export throughput was 451,302 metric tons, increasing 3 percent from the same period last year; and import throughput was 194,055 metric tons, rising 2 percent from last year. Year-to-date transshipment cargo volume plummeted 45 percent to 5,458 metric tons.
"In November, driven by the launch of a number of new high tech consumer products, we saw an uptick demand in the export to North America and Europe, and import from Southwest Pacific," said Kenneth Yeung, AAT's general manager of corporate development. Overall annual performance should be slightly better than expected, he added.

Night before last I woke-up during the night listening to a loud storm outside my window and mourned the loss of summer. I was wearing flip-flops Tuesday and yesterday I put on socks for the first time in months. We had a sudden 40 degree drop in temperature. September is my favorite month and it lived up to all its glory this year. Thank you September. We'll probably have a few more pleasant days before real winter comes, but yesterday's weather was an unpleasant reminder of that pending reality.

Oooooo! I'm rubbing my hands with glee just looking at those stacks of beauty! So many darling darling pieces! Which does cause me to wonder... when you purchase a fabric, do you have a standard amount that you usually go for? Or does it vary each time just depending upon how much you love the fabric?ReplyDelete
I've been trying to figure out what I do and it seems like I'm all over the board. No rhyme or reason to it -- which means that sometimes I have enough and sometimes I run out. So I'm curious if you've got a better system...
those are some pretty piles of fabric. I'm glad I don't live in UT anymore, I don't miss the snow!ReplyDelete
It's been getting cold in the mornings here 55-ish but by lunch time it is back to 75-ish Gotta love the south fro something, that something is called FALL!!!
ah, i remember those cold snow days in utah.ReplyDelete
it use to snow on my birthday, IN MAY.
now i just have rain.
i see pretty fabric that i want in your stack.
lucky lucky!
From the looks of things, you're getting more of a fall than we are! I keep hoping it'll shape up but so far there about about 4 total trees that have changed. The rest are just dropping dead leaves. Weird. It can still happen.ReplyDelete
I was looking at the mountains this morning while I drove the kids to school and I thought how weird they looked with snow on the top and red leaved trees below. Crazy weather indeed! Love the fabrics, it makes me want to do the same. The only problem is I don't have all those pretty quilting fabrics to display.ReplyDelete
I couldn't wait to see the mtns this morning to see if they had been dusted with snow but alas, no. :( Hey, don't focus on WINTER, it is just fall afterall. Enjoy the season!! Lovely stack of fabric you have there.ReplyDelete
Waawaawaaa....whoa is me....I have these BEEEEUTIFUL mountains to look at every morning and they have a little powdered sugar on them...waawaawaa!;) It was 45 degrees this morning...in VA!!ReplyDelete
Yes, I am curious too...when you buy fabric do you have a rhyme or a reason about how much? And also, you are sorting that fanfreakintastic stash of yours...how do you sort it? By collection or color? Can't wait to see your Monster Stash Closet in all it's colorful glory!
Guess what I am going to do next Wed....gonna walk around downtown Frederick!:) Hoping to find some vintage sheets!;)
I wish you could stack that wonderful fabric on my shelf!!ReplyDelete
Those fabric stacks look wonderful...sorry for your drop in temperature...but we sure needed it! First time we've been below 90 during the day since May!ReplyDelete
What lovely fabrics, yes the weather is changing even here, this winter at least i will have some hand-made socks now i know how to do them lolReplyDelete
Hugs Janice
what beautiful stacks. I spy a lot of my favourites in there.ReplyDelete
I wish I could see snowy mountain tops. I can see a grey and wet field, and some trees.
oh so many pretties in your stack there! The weather has turned cold here too, highs of 50. we turned our heat on sep.30th, that mad me sad!ReplyDelete
A few people asked if I have a system for how much fabric I buy. I wish I did! :) If it's something I like but I have no idea what I'm going to do with it (yet) I buy a half yard of a fat quarter. If I find stuff that is 50-75% off I tend to buy a little more so I have pieces for borders, backs, etc. Most of my fabric purchasing is decided purely on how little money I have to spend to get it. :) That probably doesn't help, but there you have it. I wish there was more rhyme or reason.ReplyDelete
Your stash is beautiful. I love it when I put on something I haven't worn and find a quarter or yes! jellybeans. It is like a gift.ReplyDelete

Emeritus Launches New Customer Satisfaction System
In the first survey of its kind for the nationwide senior living company, Emeritus (NYSE: ESC) is rolling out a new customer satisfaction system to be implemented beginning in December.
The company has contracted with a third party, Mindshare, that will allow Emeritus to survey its residents and their family and friends both on their general satisfaction levels as well as specific day-to-day feedback they might have.
Emeritus will then analyze the information to implement changes within its communities and company as a whole.
"If you ask the right questions, with the right frequency and the right people, you'll get very actionable data," says Doug Baynham, vice president of Strategic Business Enhancement. "You can give yourself a score, which is typically what our industry does, but we want to do the opposite—down to the specific person and building to have a positive impact on the customer."
The surveys will be rolled out by email, phone and online, with residents able to access the surveys at any time of day or night.
Currently Emeritus is working to collect email addresses for its residents and their family members who are interested in contributing to the initiative, with the launch planned for December 2 with subsequent surveying to take place throughout 2014.
Mindshare will help then analyze the data that is collected, so that Emeritus can respond down to the community and individual level.
"We don't know what we're going to get back, but we are committed to responding appropriately," Baynham says. "We are looking at this as an opportunity to improve, to get better and to be more connected with the communities."
Though the results will help Emeritus better serve the company's residents, the effort is not in response to critical media coverage of the company that aired earlier this year, Baynham says.
"This is more a response to the wildly important goal that has been in place the whole year," he says. "We always want to get better and be responsive. Each of our buildings has been collecting information anecdotally on a regional or community basis. This is the first time we've done an entire, company-wide survey."

Yes, well sending an email to a 93 year-old resident doesn't sound too smart to me. Whatever happened to snailmail? These people are not in the generation where they use computers much. If they want to get a response skewed by age then this is the way to do it. Elderly people have been warned not to respond to telephone calls asking for personal information so good luck there. Plus my mother, who lives in an Emeritus home has no patience with staying on the phone for a survey. Send her the paper version and she will respond. Drop it off at the desk on the way to the dining room. Easy.
I recently moved my mother from an Emeritus facility because I was concerned for her well-being. Why would Emeritus listen or respond to email when they didn't respond to me or my mother when the comments were in person, writing and through their Ethics First system?
I have nothing laudable to say about the management. The caregivers and med techs did their best under untenable conditions. If you're wondering if I shared all this with management, I did.

RELEASED: June 10, 2010
EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire chapter of the Golden Key International Honour Society and the University Bookstore recently collected more books than any other college, university or library in this year's Better World Books textbook drive.
Internet bookseller Better World Books collects used books and textbooks from more than 1,800 college and university campuses and 2,000 libraries throughout the United States and Canada. The books are then resold in an effort to "go green" and support worldwide literacy initiatives. As a for-profit social venture, Better World Books has converted more than 33 million donated books into more than $8 million in funding for literacy and education, and diverted more than 13,000 tons of books from landfills. The annual book drive is one of the UW-Eau Claire chapter's biggest projects.
As a representative of UW-Eau Claire's Golden Key chapter, the book-drive contest winner, senior Audrey Mohr, New Ulm, Minn., service/book drive chair, will take an all-expense paid trip to Uganda and South Africa with Better World Books and Books for Africa representatives in July. Mohr will experience the impact of the program by visiting the urban and rural schools and libraries that benefit from the book drives.
"Not only does this project save tons of discarded texts from area landfills, it puts millions of books into the hands of people that need them," said UW-Eau Claire's Golden Key chapter adviser Paula Stuettgen.
"When the competition for the trip to Africa was announced, UW-Eau Claire was fortunate enough to have an exceptionally large number of textbooks to be discarded from the textbook inventory, ready to be shipped," said Stuettgen. "Our chapter's longstanding relationship with Better World Books, Books for Africa and the University Bookstore allowed Golden Key to be in a perfect position to compete and win!"
As both a service project and a fundraiser, the book drive will create funding for Eau Claire's Golden Key chapter that will go directly back into chapter literacy education programs in Eau Claire, including its annual fourth-grade essay contest.
According to Heather Lee, assistant manager of the University Bookstore, about 12 tons of textbooks were donated. It took two weeks of preparation and volunteer help from students in a business ethics course to pack them up. Lee is an honorary member of the UW-Eau Claire chapter of Golden Key.
Amy Lowther, a Better World Books account representative said she is amazed at the efforts put forth by UW-Eau Claire.
"Their Golden Key chapter is incredibly strong and they consistently run an outstanding book drive year after year," Lowther said. "Paula Stuettgen's brilliant leadership and the unparalleled support of the University Bookstore have helped Golden Key's dedicated students make a wonderful impact on environmental sustainability and worldwide literacy."
Runners-up in the contest were the Upsilon Mu chapter of Phi Theta Kappa at Illinois Central College in East Peoria, and Book Brigade of King's University College at the University of Western Ontario, Canada.

City to pay $600K to make courthouse handicapped accessible
Updated On: Jan 24 2013 06:30:41 PM EST
The city is getting ready to pay about $600,000 to make the $350 million courthouse accessible to everyone.
Since it opened in June, there has been an issue with handicapped accessibility. Turner Construction, which contracted the courthouse, and the city have been at odds over who is responsible and who should pay to make it right.
Allen Morris, who uses a walker, was trying to open the door to leave the courthouse Thursday, and it was difficult for him to maneuver to try and push the door open, then go outside. He needed someone to help.
"There is not a whole lot that can be done, maybe as far as someway to let somebody know that you are there and having a problem and somebody would be inside and open up," Morris said.
Since the courthouse opened, people in wheelchairs haven't been able to get around because the doors are too difficult to open and access is limited, even though Duval County taxpayers paid millions of dollars to build the new facility.
During a meeting Wednesday of the courthouse oversight committee, city officials said they are giving in and will spend contingency money and pay to have 100-200 automatic doors installed throughout the courthouse, including those doors leading into courtrooms.
"We really need more electronic doors with the push buttons on it," Betty Whyche said.
Whyche, who is in a wheelchair, says it's only fair because the courthouse is for everyone. She said it's a problem if disabled people can't get in a courtroom to take care of their affairs.
The installation of the doors is expected to be complete in six months.

Bankrupt Morals In Bankrupt Stocks
NEW YORK ( TheStreet -- Cancelled stocks are the walking dead in penny stock land.
They are set to die but continue to trade. These stocks are usually collateral damage from a bankruptcy ruling based on creditors demands to protect their assets, usually in bonds. Most often, a judge will divvy up the company's carcass, leaving the largest slice to bondholders while equity investors watch helplessly as a stock is cancelled.
Most sane investors would question why in such cases anyone would buy a soon-to-be-cancelled. The answer is simple: the low price, often in pennies, seems too good to pass up.
"A bunch of people trade in the Q's," said Zvi Rhine of Sabra Capital Partners, referring to companies in bankruptcy which have a "Q" added to their ticker. "Every now and then a Q stock will rip."Cathy Hershcopf is a corporate bankruptcy lawyer at Cooley LLP who said she's always surprised that investors trade in equities that have almost no value and little prospects for improvement. "When a company declares bankruptcy, there usually isn't enough money left for the creditors to be paid in full, much less give any value to the equity," Hershcopf said. Investors often lose money because they fall prey to speculation and rumor, the currency of Internet chat rooms. A common rumor is that an 'equity committee' will be formed to save a stock, thereby pushing the shares higher and sucking-in unsuspecting buyers. However, these rumors rarely pan out. Once a judge hears from creditors and declares a cancellation, the stock's life comes to an abrupt end, and shareholders lose all their money. Rick Szambel of Albert Fried specializes in bankrupt stocks and says he's a frequent target of the bankrupt-stock rumor mongering. "Even when I'm right, I am criticized as being wrong,'' Szambel said. "I quote directly from the disclosure documents, so I'm not wrong. Most regular people don't know where to find these documents or know how to understand them." Nonetheless, anyone can say anything on the Internet, Szambel said. "Just because someone says it on the Internet, doesn't mean it's true."

Hey, I know! Why not base the SFPark on market pricing?
Uh, SFMTA? Just because something "makes money" for you doesn't mean that it's good for San Francisco…
We were going to get congestion pricing for just the "downtown core" in the Financh, but now it looks like the plan has expanded to the "Northeast Cordon."
Here it is, straight from the BOMA people.
"$60-80M annual net revenue"
"If direction from policymakers to pursue further, next step would be environmental review."
I didn't take these photos, but I'll tell you, I've seen a lot of corruption regarding free parking for SFGov employees in the SoMA area, so I believe them.
Here's a photo essay with captions from Jim, who went on a walkabout yesterday.
Take a look:
"There are the People who pay up front to park in a lot, $25-$70. There are the people who feed meters but many of those wind up paying $72 to the City long after the last pitch. And there are those who play the system and possibly cheat and pay nothing for parking in a "red zone" with the help from "winking and nodding" SFMTA Parking Control Officers.
All these photos were taken within a 50 foot circle near 2nd & Townsend at 2:15 P.M. on Sunday April 7, 2013 during the Giants/St. Louis Baseball game.
1) Number 1 shows what the average slug must pay for parking for the Giant's game at 2 in the afternoon, i.e. $70.
2) Number 2 shows a Handicapped placard vehicle getting free Giants game parking in the "red zone" of the SFFD at Second & Townsend. Handicapped placard holders may not park in "red zones."
3) What appears to be several private vehicles of S.F. firefighters parked in the "red zone" claiming to be working by their Official Papers on the Dash. Is it mere code for "don't ticket a fellow City employee?"
4) Several motorcycles getting ticketed (TC27, 219) for expired meters by the PCO who just drove by the "red zones" without seeing cause to stop.
5) Photo of SFFD Headquarters at 9:30 A.M., Sunday April 7, 2013 in case you think a lot of people work there on a Sunday.
Instead of the SFMTA MUNI DPT SFPark happy talk what you've been getting from the San Francisco Examiner, why not check out what the New York Times has to say about San Francisco's expensive SFPark new parking meter program.
"PLACE "smart" in front of a noun and you immediately have something that somehow sounds improved."

I'll tell you, when the Imperial Japanese Navy tried to invade Wake Island back in WWII, their first attempt, which involved months of planning, failed. The IJN was highly embarrassed but they knew that it was their job to impose themselves on Wake, to "manage" Wake, so they came back and succeeded on their second try. (And they beheaded a few Marines, but, byegones…)
And I'll also tell you, when the Imperial SFMTA tried to impose SFPark on the Mission Bay and the Dogpatch and whatnot, their first attempt, which involved months of planning, failed. The SFMTA was highly embarrassed but they knew that it's their job to impose SFPark, or whatever they're calling it now, on the area. The college boys of the SFMTA just know, they just know it, that it's their job to increase the power of the SFMTA and have the SFMTA grow and grow and grow.
Get all the deets on the Second Invasion of Mission Bay right here, and below.
And oh, here's SFPark.info website, written by people who don't approve of the worst aspects of the SFMTA and SFPark (or whatever they're calling it these days.)
All right, now back to the official stuff. Uh, and in case you don't know it, SFMTA, you suck – more proof of this is that your website has "insecure content." [UPDATE: Good job, MUNI! You took care of that. Someday, you'll get the hang of the whole "Internet" thing.]
Or so they say:
In closing, MUNI sucks!
Posted on 05.25.12 in Announcements, Parking Planning|Share:
The public is invited to join the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) at our second Mission Bay parking planning community meeting. We will discuss the revised plans for parking management in the neighborhood and gather public input. As Mission Bay evolves, we need to ensure that everyone on the road—cars, buses, bicycles, and pedestrians—can travel safely and smoothly.
The SFMTA seeks public input on the following:
During the open house section of the meeting, attendees can review plan details, talk directly with project planners, and submit written feedback. The public comment period follows.
CLICK HERE to learn more about Mission Bay parking planning
CLICK HERE for directions to the meeting venue, including nearby public transit
Please feel free to email us if you have any questions about the location or the project.
All right, let's see here, by the numbers:
1. "Parking Availability" – What this means is that the SFMTA is taking money from the Feds to put in new parking meters and raise prices on existing meters.
2. "Pricing" - What this means is that the SFMTA is taking money from the Feds to put in new parking meters and raise prices on existing meters.
Does that about cover it?

Imagine if you will an organization called, I don't know, how about SFFOOD.ORG? And instead of its former policy of giving away food for free for the most part but also charging a little bit of money to some people, it decided to give away a smaller amount of free food and then charge a lot of money to more people. And then imagine that if SFFOOD knew you were really hungry, then it'd charge you even more. And then imagine that its slogan would be "Food Availability & Pricing."
And then imagine they made some bullshit website about how much happier you'll be spending less time waiting for food you now have to pay for. (You know who values convenience over money? Rich people, that's who.)
Do you see why your bullshit initiatives are met with deep skepticism?
Hello, SFMTA? It's me, Margaret. The Internet called – it wants its URLs back. Don't you already have a website, SFMTA? So why do you need a different one for every project you do? Like the CultureBus – you had a special website for that too, right? (Until you lost interest in it…)
And aren't we going to pay back the Feds the $20,000,000 "grant" or whatever they're loaning us to pay for the new meters (and bullshit website) from the new revenue? (That's my understanding – disabuse me of that notion if you wish.)
Hey SFMTA, why don't you just be straight and tell drivers that they're just going to have to pay more for parking, just tell them that their free ride is over? Why don't you tell people that it's impractical to make them put 72 quarters per hour into a meter so that's why you want to use credit and debit cards and whatnot?
And why does every policy from the SFMTA have to be advertised as a win-win for all concerned?
Why does the worst-run agency in San Francisco have to be so Orwellian?
Oh, and here's the kicker:
"After the SFpark pilot phase is complete in the summer of 2012, SFpark will evaluate the effectiveness of the project and prepare a proposal for expanding SFpark across the City for the SFMTA Board to consider after public outreach."
Can you see those Godforsaken souls way out there at 46th and Kirkham feeding the kitty for them to park their cars in front of their houses?
Here's the link to LIVESOMA, which is a great blog that I didn't really know about* until recently.
*Are there other great blogs out there in the 415 that I haven't heard about? Tell me, tell me!
Is San Francisco really going to start charging admission? All right, but this "Gateway" idea is a whole lot different from the "downtown core" proposal from a few years back, in'nt?
I mean, what's stopping San Mateo from putting up their own tollbooths? Or charging a per-capita two dollar fee for all BART riders coming into Daly City Station as compensation for us taking up all their space and breathing all their air?
Just sayin, bro.
These guys with the flashlights at night on Post Street (and other places about town) provide the questionable "service" of pointing out where empty parking spaces are. They'll guide you in and then expect compensation of an undefined amount.
This casual parking program is certainly cheaper than SFPark, cause, you know, that's going to add up when we start paying back the Feds the eight figures they're fronting for all those sensors on the ground.
However, the flashlight people are even more patronizing than the people that made the SFPark marketing materials, because they don't do anything. I mean, if you're looking for parking, how could you miss these spaces plain as day?

Environmental permits approved for Beech-Nut plant
FLORIDA, N.Y. (AP) - A large Beech-Nut baby food factory planned
in the Mohawk Valley has moved another step closer to reality.
The state Department of Environmental Conservation has approved all permits required for the construction of the plant in the Florida Business Park in Montgomery County.
State approval for the $124.8 million proposal by the Hero Group/Beech-Nut requires a habitat mitigation plan including 48 acres of land be maintained as grassland to protect bird species, and replacement of disturbed wetlands.
The company plans to build a 600,000-square-foot facility and move out of its plants in Canajoharie and Fort Plain. Officials say plans are to keep about 356 jobs in Montgomery County and add another 135 positions.

Chile: high court blocks Patagonia hydro scheme
Cross-Posted from WW4 Report, Mon, 05/14/2012
Chile's Supreme Court on May 11 issued a ruling blocking construction of the Cuervo hydroelectric dam in Patagonia until further environmental studies have been carried out. The dam was one of three hydroelectric plants proposed by Energía Austral, a private joint-venture between Anglo-Swiss mining giant Xstrata Copper and Australia's Origin Energy, to supply power to copper mines in the area. The court found that the project failed to file a required soil study with the National Geology and Mining Service, overturning a decision earlier this month by Aysén region's Environmental Evaluation Commission giving the project the green light. The environmental advocacy group Chile Sustentable welcomed the decision, hailing it as "a tremendous achievement for the citizens." Chile, the world's leading copper producer, needs to double its electrical generating capacity in the next decade to meet requirements of a planned massive expansion in the mining sector. The two remaining hydro-plants in the Energia Austral mega-scheme, Blanco and Cóndor, still await approval. (International Water Power, May 14; Jurist, May 13; Reuters, May 11; AFP, May 8)

Peru: Asháninka indigenous people fight hydro scheme in new war zone
Peru's Apurímac-Ene River Valley (VRAE), which exploded into the news last month when Shining Path guerillas briefly took 36 pipeline construction workers hostage, is the scene of a contest between the local Asháninka indigenous people and economic interest seeking to develop a hydro-electric mega-project in the area, to export power to neighboring Brazil. The proposed 2,200-megawatt Pakitzapango hydroelectric dam would flood much of the basin of the Río Ene, as the Apurímac is known after it enters the Amazonian lowlands. The project would mean relocation of 15 Asháninka communities, numbering some 10,000 inhabitants, and it is conceived as but the first of six dams in the area that together would generate more than 6,500 megawatts under a 2010 agreement signed with Brazil. All told, the five-dam project would displace thousands more people. Brazilian companies Electrobras, Odebrecht, Engevix, Camargo Correa, and the Brazilian National Development Bank (BNDES) are driving the push for the mega-project.
For now, the project is stalled due to a legal challenge brought by the Central Asháninka del Rio Ene (CARE), a local indigenous organization, on the grounds that it would impact lands within the "buffer zone" of the Asháninka Communal Reserve, an area of forest officially set aside for the use of the indigenous people in Satipo province, Junín region. Lands in the "buffer zone" of adjacent Otishi National Park would also be flooded. The Foreign Relations Commission of Peru's Congress is set to consider whether the government should fight to revive the project this month. President Ollanta Humala has yet to take a stand on the question.
The renewed Shining Path violence in the VRAE has heightened passions over the project. The Asháninka fought the Shining Path when the guerillas invaded their territory after being pushed out of highland Ayacucho region by the army in the '90s, and bore a disproportionate burden of the war against the guerillas. Of the 70,000 who were killed over the two decades of war, 6,000 were Ashaninka (who only number some 25,000 by the estimate of Ethnologue). "This is why the Ashaninka brothers say because we have sacrificed while our families disappeared, I'm not going to give away our land so easily to the state," CARE's president, Ruth Buendia, told the New York Times. (NYT, Indian Country Today, May 15;The Atlantic, Dec. 14, 2011; CARE, March 28, 2009; International Rivers)

As those of you who keep close tabs on the trials and travails of La Familia Falcone know, one of the biggest mistakes Phil made in the last several years was the time he borrowed $113 million from a gated investor fund to cover personal taxes, for which he had failed to set aside enough cash. Falcone learned the hard way that clients don't take kindly to these sorts of things– even if you pay them back, with interest– and that the Securities and Exchange Commission doesn't either. Point taken, all that jazz. In retrospect, it might even make sense to Phil re: why people got upset. Having said that, there is no way he, or anyone for that matter, could have predicted anyone would get their panties in a twist over this: Read more »

Obviously When Bank Chief Said Bailout Money Was For "Bleeding Patients" He Was Referring To The Kitchen In His New Waterfront Condo, Which Required A Viking Stove To Replace An 80's-Era FrigidaireBy Bess Levin
Yesterday afternoon, former Mainstreet Bank chairman Darryl Lane Woods pleaded guilty to criminal charges stemming from misuse of TARP funds. According to prosecutors, Woods' crime was two-fold. Part one involved applying for bailout money in November 2008, and then using the $1 million his bank received to purchase a $381,000 vacation home in Ft. Myers, Florida. Part two was responding to a February 2009 inquiry from Sigtarp head Neil Barofsky, who wanted a detailed account of what Mainstreet had done with the their cash with this: Read more »
The basic thing about investing in big banks' unsecured debt is that once upon a time it was a pseudo-risk-free proposition because, like, it's a bank, what could possibly go wrong,1 and now it's like,2 hi, you are buying the mezzanine (call it 10-to-30%-loss3) tranche in an actively traded and extremely opaque CDO full of goofy stuff and, hey, put a price on that.
I don't know who'll be good at putting a price on that but it stands to reason that Jes Staley, the former head of JPMorgan's investment bank who left for BlueMountain shortly after several billion dollars of JPMorgan's money made the same voyage, would. He thinks so anyway:
On a panel at the Bloomberg Hedge Funds Summit in New York, Mr. Staley discussed what is known as resolution authority, in which regulators help wind down failing banks. The process of adapting to these new rules, he said, would give banks a "more clearly defined capital structure," and thereby create opportunities for investors.
"There's going to be tremendous mis-pricing between the different levels of the capital structure in these banks," Mr. Staley, who is known as Jes, said on the panel.
One imagines that, if all goes according to plan, then at some point between now and the end of time:
- There will be some bank debt (deposits!) that is bail-outable and more or less government guaranteed;
- There will be some other bank debt (repo!) that is collateralized and more or less money-good, ish;
- There will be some other other bank debt that is bail-inable and more or less clearly mezzaniney and going to be toasted in any bank failure; and
- People will believe that.
Once, in 2007, the people who ran RBS though it would be a good idea to buy a Dutch bank with lots and lots of toxic assets. It proved to be not so good an idea, so RBS needed to raise some cash. So it sold £12 billion worth of new stock in June 2008.
In the face of a £28 billion net loss it announced a few months later, that fresh capital evaporated rather quickly, forcing a new share sale to Her Majesty's Treasury. The people who bought those £12 billion in shares, unsurprisingly, aren't thrilled about what happened to the value of those shares before and after nationalization. So 12,000+ are suing, seeking several billion pounds from Fred Goodwin & Co., which makes the loss of his knighthood seem rather a bargain. Read more »
Cyprus Finds Exciting New Way To Make Everyone MiserableBy Matt Levine
Things in Cyprus: kinda bad. There are better places than here to read about it; I particularly recommend Joseph Cotterill here and here, pseudo-Paweł Morski here and here, Mohammed El-Erian here, the FT's coverage here and here, the Journal's round-up of analyst reaction here, etc.
The basic story is that Cyprus's government and banks are both massively overindebted and need a bailout, and the EU and IMF will provide a €10bn bailout, but they demanded that Cyprus chip in some €7bn, which it has decided to do by means of a tax on deposits in Cypriot banks of 6.75% for up to €100,000 and 9.9% above €100,000. (Is that rate on bigger deposits marginal or absolute? No one knows!) Those numbers are being renegotiated and may end up not being approved by Cyprus's parliament.
The various reasons to object to this boil down to its violations of absolute priority; the way things are supposed to work is more or less: Read more »

The Hunger Games & Revolution
The Hunger Games will open in theaters around the country today and the movie will undoubtedly send readers scrambling for the sequel–a timely book that could help the younger generation think about these revolutionary times.
The Hunger Games focuses on the personal struggle teenage girl named Katniss Everdeen. In Suzanne Collins' sequel, Catching Fire, that personal struggle expands in a country-wide revolution. Even though Catching Fire was first published in 2009, certain scenes feel ripped from our current headlines.
Yesterday actor Penn Badgley compared The Hunger Games plot to the Occupy Wall Street movement: "It's the one percent [killing the kids] … I think you'd have to be blind to not see that … If this doesn't end in revolution, it's irresponsible, because of everything it's bringing up."

Responding to mounting international pressure in the wake of its bloody raid on an aid flotilla in May, Israel announced it will ease its three-year-long blockade of the Gaza Strip, forbidding only weapons and related material. —JCL
Al Jazeera English:
Israel has said it will announce a revised list of goods allowed into and out of the Gaza Strip, easing its blockade on the territory.
The office of Binyamin Netanyahu, the prime minister, said on Sunday that it would publish a revised list of banned goods "as quickly as possible".
The new list is said to be made up of weapons and "weapons materials", with all other goods to be permitted entry to Gaza, which is ruled by Hamas.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office promised to issue a revised list of prohibited goods "as quickly as possible."

The dried ones are great in winter, but supple fresh fruit's a luxury from summer to early fall. Just sink your teeth into their velvety skin for the delicate crunch of tiny seeds in sweet, tender flesh. Sure, you can cook figs--but they're best simply adorned.

- " This hostel is ideal for someone looking to spend a night in London on the cheap. If that is your situation, pull the trigger, you won't find a better deal. A longer stay might be a bit rough. No extras here (other than a free breakfast, which is fine): no towels, no lounge most of the time, and minimal security. Not the most comfortable stay I've ever had, but there wasn't anything gross or unbearable about it. For 13 pounds a night, I call that a win. "

- " The location was great - right next to all the major museums, but that's about the only thing I liked about this hostel. They didn't have a working key for me my first night there to my room (which was in the damp, smelly basement), so I had to ask to be let into my room each time I went in or out. They have a kitchen but no accessible utensils or equipment. There was essentially no common area. Staff would constantly argue with each other and did not make me feel welcome. "
- 07 Jun 2014 Anonymous USA
- " I was pleasantly surprised. It is not a Marriott, there's one down the street, but it was clean, the staff was very nice. As a place to sleep, which is all I wanted, it worked out perfectly. And the location is great for activities in the South Kensington area. It was a much better value than the hotel I stayed at the next night. "

- " No complaints other than when having asked about leaving my bag at reception for safe keeping and that I'd be back at noon (12) I was told OK, no problem. When I returned at 11:50- Reception was LOCKED, no one around AT ALL. despite yelling "HEELLLLOOOO" for 20 mins, and ringing the front door bell. After 12:20 someone appeared and I asked about how to get to my bag, he graciously called the Manager who came quickly. I felt his yelling at the man who called him for me was misdirected. "

"They turned out a little more on the chewy side than the crispy, but they were really good. Next time I might also try broiling them for a short time at the end. Everyone enjoyed them. Thanks for sharing!"
"Not really what I was expecting; they had more of a cake-like texture, and while they had a definite chocolate taste, it wasn't that "brownie" taste."
"Used mini-chips instead of regular, but otherwise followed the recipe, and they were great. The picky 10-year old loves them. Thanks for sharing!"
"Absolutely marvelous. I added a teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice to the dry ingredients, and really liked the taste. Thanks for a great recipe!"
"I'd never cooked asparagus before--it always seemed so intimidating. Finally, I came across this recipe and wow! Very simple; very good. (I did add grated parmesan after removing it from the oven.) Two hours after eating, my husband is still talking about how much he liked it. This is definitely one I'll make again. Thanks!"
"Great idea! Thanks for sharing."

"Very, very good. Took it to a meeting at work, and had to give the recipe to half the people there. Will be making this again."
"It is wonderful...very light, with a great texture, and it has just a hint of sweetness. I used light cream cheese and instant oatmeal, and we think it turned out great. Even my kids liked this one."

Is this a good bat for contact hitters?
The 2014 Rawlings 5150 Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB513) balanced feel will make it a very popular choice among many contact hitters.
Is this bat considered Babe Ruth certified?
The 2014 Rawlings 5150 Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB513) is able to be used in Babe Ruth play allowing barrel diameters of 2 5/8". Depending on the league and their physical size, the player could use a higher drop weight.
I am 14 a freshman and high school contact/power hitter and was wonder if this would be a good bat for me?
Yes, the 2014 Rawlings 5150 Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB513) would be a great option. It provides the balanced swing weight that most contact hitters are looking for. It also is a one piece design that has a more responsive feel, which a trait that most power hitters prefer.
Product Description
New! The 2014 Rawlings 5150 Alloy BBCOR Bat! Rawlings is out to prove that they truly are on the cutting edge of BBCOR design technology. The original 5150 Alloy BBCOR was one of the first BBCOR bats to hit the market, yet it achieved uncommon staying power and popularity for years after its release. That's because players barely noticed a difference in performance, swing weight, and durability from their BESR bat. Now that Rawlings has had a chance to perfect the design even further, this year's 5150 Alloy BBCOR is sure to be even more popular! The unique feel offered by Rawlings' BBCOR bats is made possible through Precision Optimized Performance (pOp) Barrel Technology that isolates extra weight to a smaller region of the bat, translating into extra swing speed. Made from the ultra-responsive 5150 Alloy, this one-piece design features an extra-long barrel design and a balanced swing weight that is over 200 M.O.I. better than any other competitor. The end of the barrel features Rawlings' proprietary Bi/fusion process that joins the Comp-Lite end cap to the 5150 Alloy frame to give it more durability and more pop in one single, solitary unit. With a 7/8 Inch tapered handle and premium synthetic grip, the BB513 will feel incredible in your hands. Rawlings: The New Standard of Speed! The BB513 is BBCOR Certified and legal for high school and collegiate play. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!
About Rawlings
Holy Cow, that's great service. I look forward to using the bat in my over thirty league game this coming sunday. Great job.
