Meet the SEC's 6,500 Whistleblowers (WSJ)
Retirees were the largest group with 365 tips. Investors were second with 290 complaints. Engineers came in third. But whistleblowers come from all walks of life. They include a diesel mechanic, an antiques dealer and a longshoreman; there's an agronomist, two people who listed themselves as "ex-wife" and a veterinarian. There are also a number of current and retired military servicemen and enough hospitality and service employees to suggest executives should watch what they say in restaurants, bars, hotels and taxis…Engineers, at first blush, might seem to be an odd profession for informants, but honesty, integrity and fixing errors are drilled into them during training, said Norman Fortenberry, executive director of the American Society for Engineering Education. "It's fundamental in our code of ethics," he said. The code states, among other virtues, that engineers "must be dedicated to the protection of public health, safety and welfare." "It is a matter of both personal and professional pride," Mr. Fortenberry said. The adult-entertainment industry, however, operates under an entirely different code. Among prostitutes, secrecy is sacrosanct, said Dennis Hof, proprietor of the Moonlight Bunny Ranch and other legal brothels in Nevada. "We have a sacred bond with our clients," he said. "Money can't take precedence." Mr. Hof said any of his employees would be fired and disavowed if they were to release privileged information about any of the brothels' clients. Air Force Amy, a popular Bunny Ranch mainstay whose real name is Deanne Salinger, said clients constantly reveal material, nonpublic information. At first she said she would approach Mr. Hof to see if they should invest based on any of the tips, but they agreed that it wouldn't be wise. "I dummy up a lot, I really do," she said. "I've been around a long time and you just don't talk."
BofA Deal With U.S. Is Hung Up Over Penalties Tied to Countrywide, Merrill (WSJ)
Bank of America has offered $13 billion to end the government's mortgage-securities probe, including a combination of fines and consumer assistance, which could include credit for measures such as writing down the values of mortgages for struggling homeowners. But the Justice Department is demanding billions more—and wants a bigger chunk in fines, these people said. Bank of America, which has already shelled out some $60 billion for crisis-era legal problems, has told the Justice Department it is willing to pay for the past misdeeds of Countrywide and Merrill Lynch—but not at levels it considers overly punitive, according to people familiar with the talks. Bank of America scooped up Countrywide and Merrill with the encouragement of regulators after housing troubles nearly sank both firms. It wants the penalty related to the firms' past misconduct to come in the form of consumer assistance or other so-called soft money that has a less severe impact on Bank of America's bottom line than a cash fine, these people say. The Justice Department has so far rejected Bank of America's proposal, and the U.S. could file a lawsuit within weeks if the two sides don't reach a deal, according to people familiar with the matter.
Former Goldman Options Trader Becomes Argentina Taxi King (Bloomberg)
After 23 years trading stock options at Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Merrill Lynch & Co. and his own hedge fund, Russell Abrams is piling into his most exotic gamble yet: as a Buenos Aires taxi impresario. Abrams, 48, plans to invest as much as $100 million of his own money to build a fleet of Buenos Aires cabs, undaunted by the prospects for Argentina's second default in 13 years, the fallout from the peso's devaluation in January, inflation of about 40 percent and the economy's first quarterly contraction since 2012.
Startups Uber and Airbnb Court Business Travelers (WSJ)
The fast-growing technology startups this week each announced new versions of their apps geared toward booking business trips. Both companies also struck deals with Concur Technologies Inc., the expense-reporting software used by more than 20,000 companies. Appealing to corporate clients would give the young technology companies a toehold in the business travel industry, which is expected to generate $1.21 trillion in revenue world-wide this year, according to the Global Business Travel Association.
New Venture Fund Binary Capital Focuses on Mission, Not Just Metrics (Dealbook)
Binary Capital closed its first fund on July 17, raising $125 million — a hard cap — in just three and a half months. It turned away nearly half as many dollars. The goal of the fund is relatively straightforward: invest in 15 to 20 very early-stage consumer technology companies that have the potential to have a global impact. The partners plan to contribute to that impact by giving a portion of their carried interest to charitable organizations chosen by their entrepreneurs. Eventually, they also hope to team up with global nonprofit groups to use their technology and resources for causes in the developing world.
Marijuana Is a Welcome Wedding Guest in Colorado and Washington State (NYT)
Earlier this month, when Ellen Epstein arrived at the Devil's Thumb Ranch in Tabernash, Colo., for the wedding of her friends Lauren Meisels and Bradley Melshenker, she, like the other guests, found a gift bag waiting for her in her hotel room. But rather than a guide to activities in the area or a jar of locally made honey, the canvas bag contained a rolled joint, a lighter and lip balm infused with mango butter and cannabis, along with this note: "We wanted to show you some of the things we love the best." […] All of the floral arrangements, including the bride's bouquet, contained a variety of white flowers mixed with marijuana buds and leaves. Mr. Melshenker and his groomsmen wore boutonnieres crafted out of twine and marijuana buds, and Mr. Melshenker's three dogs, who were also in attendance, wore collars made of cannabis buds, eucalyptus leaves and pink ribbons. Before going into dinner, the guests were given a baby marijuana plant in a ceramic pot with their name and table assignment written on a card in green ink, in the kind of stylish script you might find on a container of artisanal goat cheese. The tables were named after different strains of marijuana, like Blue Dream, Sour Diesel and Skywalker (the groom's favorite strain). Ms. Epstein, who was seated at Skywalker, said that everyone at her table, where the ages ranged from 40 to 70, passed around a device similar to an electronic cigarette — except that it contained hash oil instead of nicotine. "It didn't feel weird or bizarre," she said. "It kind of becomes a new cocktail."
Traders Bemoaning Losses Detect Volatility Reprieve (Bloomberg)
Currency traders are detecting the first signs of what they've been waiting for all year: a revival in volatility that may help trim their losses. Tensions in Ukraine and Gaza, together with interest-rate increases from New Zealand to South Africa (SARPRT), are helping push up a measure of price swings by the most since January. Volatility had flattened in recent months as policy makers continued to provide unprecedented amounts of cheap cash to spur growth. While rising volatility increases uncertainty and risk, it also creates opportunities for traders to profit on changes in exchange rates. Parker Global Strategies LLC's index of currency returns rose 0.5 percent last week in its biggest gain since March.
Activists Peltz, Icahn Reap $556 Million on Dollar Stores (Bloomberg)
Peltz's Trian Fund Management LP earned an estimated $368 million on its investment in Family Dollar Stores Inc. (FDO), which Dollar Tree Inc. of Chesapeake, Virginia, agreed to acquire for about $8.5 billion. Fellow activist Icahn will reap $188 million for two months of saber-rattling, regulatory filings show.
Los Angeles Clippers Sale to Ballmer May Proceed: Judge (Bloomberg)
The record $2 billion sale of the Los Angeles Clippers to former Microsoft Corp. Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer is headed toward completion without the consent of Donald Sterling, capping three months of controversy over the billionaire owner's racist comments. California Superior Court Judge Michael Levanas in Los Angeles yesterday issued a tentative decision that Shelly Sterling has sole authority to sell the National Basketball Association franchise to Ballmer. She had removed her husband of 58 years from control of the family assets based on the findings of two doctors that he's mentally incapacitated. The ruling brings Ballmer a step closer to taking ownership of what witnesses called a "trophy asset" at a three-week trial pitting the Sterlings against each other.
Citi to hire 100 bankers in Asia, eyes more business from smaller clients (Reuters)
Citigroup plans to hire as many as 100 bankers in a renewed push into Asia-Pacific commercial banking, following in rival HSBC's footsteps with a strategy that focuses on selling smaller corporate clients a wider range of products. Global banks like Citi and HSBC are now concentrating on small to medium-sized clients due to a dwindling number of $10 billion-plus IPOs from Chinese state-owned companies – deals which had sustained investment banks in the region over the last decade.
Pavlok Wristband Shocks You If You Don't Complete Fitness Goals (HP)
Need that extra motivation to get in shape? A fitness wristband due out in 2015 will zap you if you miss a workout. Pavlok's bracelet also has other kinds of negative reinforcement to get you off your duff, but it's the electric shock that's getting the buzz. "Sometimes crazy works," Pavlok CEO Maneesh Sethi says in a promotional video. For some, the gizmo might provide sticker shock as well. An alpha prototype , available now, costs $249.99.

Glad Icahn is still able get out and do some "saber-rattling" despite his old age…
Moynihan grows a pair. Well done to him.
"Many pot enthusiasts think of alcohol as an old-fashioned, old-school toxin whose overuse can inflame family tensions and cause people to say horrible things, especially at weddings. In comparison, marijuana, they contend, is more like a tonic that calms people down and makes them like each other more rather than less — perfect for a wedding, they say. "
"Mr. Melshenker, who runs a back country fly fishing and skiing outfitter when he feels like it, is counting on his parents not asking what he is doing with his trust fund…"

She soooooo likes you!!!! You seem like a really sweet guy and shes trying to drop hints and shes not telling who it is because shes nervous that if she says you you will be creeped out and it will ruin ur friendship shes just scared she wants you to ask her out go for it I;m soooo sure thats she likes u hope this helps good luck!!!!
Wake up to 23 text messages waiting to be answered on your phone. Check your email/facebook/twitter and have 295 likes on that new selfie you took of yourself. You want more attention though, so you shower up, put some clothes on, put on the makeup, and snap a quick selfie of yourself that you quickly upload to facebook. Maybe this one will get you even more likes.
The drive from Montrose is brutal to downtown Houston and when you get to the office your phone is rattling with text messages of several white knight traders, two alpha stud investment bankers, and your best friend who wants to go shopping. You get hit on by a nice guy on the propane desk who is slightly above average looking, but not good enough so you friendzone him before he asks for your number. Get to the workstation on the trading floor, where the managing director gives a lecture on how women traders have it so bad in America and how there is still male privilege out there. You grit your teeth at how unfair women have it. Men are pigs!
You check your facebook and you have 113 likes for your selfie (don't worry, it's still midday). You accidentally trip on your way to the ladies room and 29 men and several women come over to help you and ask you if you are ok and if they could help you walk to your destination. You refuse, and check on your cell phone. Sally is bitching about Maggie, and although you hate them both, they are your best friends and you love it when they talk **** about each other to you, cause you love the drama.
After walking past a parade of men at work who tell you how amazing and pretty you are, you meet up in the custodian's closet for a quickie with Travis. He's a natural gas scheduler, but he has a motorcycle and plays drums in a band. Who cares if he still lives with his parents and he's 27? He's hot.
After work, you meet up with your girlfriends to go clubbing. You are hit on by an uncountable amount of men, and after using several of them for free drinks, you ditch them and start dancing with your girlfriends. Several more average looking guys try to dance with you. Even a manlet oil trader tries to dance, and you laugh him off. Finally, you run into two hot Dodd-Frank guys and they start grinding up against you and your girlfriend. You leave the dance floor and go make out with one of them for awhile. Your fat girlfriend comes over to cock block you (after all, the night is still young) and you leave him to go find other hotter studs.
You notice in the bathroom that you've gained some weight. Who cares though, you're an indepdent woman, and men should learn to love women with curves. You gossip and take some more selfies with your girlfriends in the bathroom, then you head back out to the dance floor.
As you dance some more, some fat of yours rubs up on another woman from a midstream group, and she gets pissed. You throw your drink on her, and thousands of white knights come to aid both sides. The bouncer would kick you out, but you are unaccountable for your actions, since, after all, you are a hot woman.
A 2 oil trader who looks like Brad Pitt comes over to talk to you. Sure, he's alright, but he's probably only 5'10 and not that cute. You make out with a few men, until you find that guy who just transferred in from the Omaha office who looks like Thor who you bring home. You ditch your friends and get worked over by alpha cock."
In the morning you wake up to 38 text messages…and your selfie you uploaded yesterday had 374 likes! Today is going to be a good day!
Well duh, unless you're investing in primary issues.
One would think that with all the spare time you have, being unemployed, that you'd be funnier.
she's 200lbs+ if she's a she-
Wish I would've seen Cockmeat's comment before reading that…
Let's see your "funny" credentials first, please.

When my holy grail fragrance free shampoo and conditioner was phased out in a rebranding, I was super bummed. It can be a challenge to find gluten free, vegan products, especially in fragrance free forms that cater to dry skin and curly hair. And I lost more than a shampoo and conditioner – my basic bath products must be multi-functional.
I guess I'm pretty demanding. I need my conditioner to function as a rinse-out, leave-in, styling product, and shave cream. It has to work for a good, soothing scalp scrub on no-poo days. I like my shampoo to double as a body wash. And, in case it's not obvious, the ingredients must be very clean. Pony and cupcake optional.
Desert Essence Organics Fragrance Free Shampoo: This works well for my once or twice a week shampoo habit, and as my daily body wash. Desert Essence actually makes a separate body wash, which is fine, but the ingredients are nearly identical, and I prefer the extra moisture that comes with a shampoo. This product could lean more toward moisturizing than it does, but since I don't shampoo often I'm happy with it. It lathers more than many natural shampoos. It's a solid performer, and, I think, would please those with normal or oily hair as well.
Desert Essence Fragrance Free Conditioner: The shampoo meets my basic needs, but the conditioner is definitely a holy grail product! I'm not sure why the company doesn't have it in the organic line packaging, as it does have several organic ingredients. It's very thick and moisturizing – the perfect curly girl conditioner. It's awesome for a scalp scrub, and makes me feel clean and fresh without the need for a daily shampoo. It leaves my hair very soft, and makes a great shave cream. It's perfect on days I use henna, to rinse out the last bit of graininess. On its own it's a nice moisturizing leave-in and a great styling product. I also love to mix it with other styling products to get the consistency and performance I want on any given day. A pump of this makes my Rahua Hair Wax and John Masters Shine On even more versatile. A great trick to add extra moisture (and scent if you like) is to mix it with a few drops of your favorite oil. A bit of May Lindstrom's The Good Stuff makes this heavenly on days I want scent.
It makes me so happy to find these basic products in a fragrance free version. An extra bonus is that they are quite inexpensive. At $8.99/8oz, and add on that it's not hard to find them on sale, it's a good bulk purchase. The upside down squeeze bottle packaging is utilitarian, so I bought glass pump bottles to dispense the products. Much more convenient, and prettier.
What are your fragrance free favorites?

There's kind of an unspoken theme among clean beauty enthusiasts: wash your hair as infrequently as possible. It's almost like it's a goal we aspire to, something that earns you bragging rights if you can actually manage to get your hair and scalp to a happy place while only washing every few days. Of course, I speak from the perspective of a woman with fine hair that gets oily if you look at it the wrong way. Some of you, like Alexandra, have the kind of hair that begs not to be washed. (You lucky things!)
When we wash and how we wash ultimately depends on two factors: your hair type and the products you use. One of those is completely out of your control; the other is all about trial and error. This can be a slow, frustrating, and expensive process. That's why we cherish this community and your comments on the subject! Help a sister out, right? We got an email from Leticia, a "confused reader" who has been following the blog, reading through all the advice on cleaning up your hair routine, and has a very valid question for us all: but why? Take a look at what she has to say:
I have been following your blog for a little while now… really wanting to move all of my products to "clean" ones but do it slowly and not break the bank! So I thought I'd look through your site and see what others are using. After reading through several routines, I started noticing that people aren't shampooing very often; or they only shampoo their scalp and condition their ends; or they only condition every couple days; and what's with the oils I'm seeing people putting in their hair and leaving overnight?? I love reading through the routines, but I guess I am just wishing they would say WHY they do what they do, you know?
I generally shampoo and condition every other day with dirty products… does this mean it will change as I use clean ones? How will I know? Why would you only shampoo your scalp and not the rest of your hair? And why not condition all of your hair? Doesn't the conditioner replace what you stripped out with the shampoo? Or does the "stripping" not occur with clean products? Do you have a good resource that may talk about some of the why's behind our products, not just products themselves?
Girl, we totally understand! You're not the first reader to seek similar advice, but the whole question about why we do the things we do could be incredibly valuable in helping someone understand which advice might be best suited to their hair type and personal needs. And who better to explain than YOU, dear readers. So let's hash it out in the comments, shall we?
What's your hair routine? Do you shampoo? Condition? Apply oils? Let us know WHY your routine works for you!
Sometimes having curly hair can feel like having a pet (that you never asked your parents for). It needs constant love and attention, petting, fluffing and calming, and you can't just leave it out in the rain and expect it to behave.
Then one day you discover that, in fact, it's not as needy as you thought. It actually wants to be independent, and if you just let it do it's thing and don't coddle it like a crazy person, it might actually be able to survive in the wild.
K, this is a weird metaphor. But it sort of sums up what happened to me and my curls and I went clean. The constant monitoring, treatments, and loads of leave-ins proved to be a bit moot once I just learned to let it be, not wash it much (or ever), and use a good, thick, natural conditioner. Suddenly: Nice curls, responsive to heat if I wanted to style it, and I could even sleep on them and not look like a total animal in the morning.
For a while there, I flat-out lost my taste for hair products, because it was such a revelation not to need them. But these days, I'm working my way back to the middle because—as I almost forgot—the right products can do a lot for a curl. It can make it springy and tight, or loose and lovely. And this line does it all.
Who is Jessicurl? Some quick reading on their website says it's a brand started by a woman (Jess) who grew up fighting her curls until one day she discovered a natural and DIY approach to haircare and learned to love them. Sound familiar? Cut to: Ten years later she has her very own line with very nice people working with her. These folks were kind enough to send me their entire Rich and Radiant Collection, which I've now thoroughly tested.
Note: There are a few ingredients in the line that aren't perfect. The last two ingredients in the conditioners and leave-ins get a question mark on SkinDeep (4-6), though I've never heard of them (have you?) and the cleansing cream contains a PEG. While that gets a low hazard score, if memory serves PEGs run the risk of being contaminated with 1,4-dioxane—which is really bad stuff. I have not emailed the folks at Jessicurl about any of this yet (feel free to post in the comments, guys), but given how clean the rest of the line I'm feeling a bit forgiving about it. Especially on the products that I'm obsessed with. :)
OK, let's go through it!
Hair Cleansing Cream ($16.95 / 8oz): Touted as an alternative to shampoo this product foams just a little, featuring gentler surfactants. As promised in the description, your curly hair will actually look great on the same day as washing (on the rare occasions I wash, I've found this to be true with most good natch, and non-stripping, shampoos). Remember when your curls were absolutely destroyed by hair-washing and you had to wait several days for them to get back into their groove? Man, those days sucked.
Next up!
Too Shea! Conditioner ($16.95 / 8oz): This is a really nice hydrating conditioner that leans more towards the sticky than the greasy side in consistency. I've been using this most days as my conditioning cleanser and it's absolutely great. The whole lines smells good too, in a natural good way, and the presence of peppermint in this conditioner makes it perfect for waking up in the morning shower. This conditioner gets my solid stamp of approval, and I think it would work especially great for women who don't want their curls weighed down. I, on the other hand, also happen to enjoy a really heavy conditioner too… Which is why I use it in tandem with…
Deep Conditioning Treatment ($16.95 / 8oz): This conditioner is the bomb. It's so thick that it's almost tough to squeeze it out of the bottle. Heavy and rich, it literally seems to detangle curls on contact. Funnily, it has almost the exact same ingredients as the previous conditioner, but the proportions must be totally different. According to the description, I'm not the only curly girl obsessed. While it was once marketed as a weekly treatment, so many women started using it daily. That's what I've been doing, and the results are GREAT.
OK, that's a wrap for now. Tomorrow I will cover the three amazing styling products that came in the set. But tell us, curlies and wavies: What is your washing and conditioning curl ritual? Have you heard of JessiCurl?
Among the strange and regrettable things that I did to my hair between the ages of, oh, 12 and 30, were semi-regular VO5 Hot Oil Treatments. Who among you remembers this deep-conditioning concoction? Just for laughs, I pulled up the ingredient list (which probably hasn't changed in 30 years)—and Oof…
I'm not sure what shocks me more 1) the fact that there's not really any oil listed, or 2) that there's actually aloe vera high up on this otherwise unpronounceable list.
Anyways, I used to love warming that little bendy plastic bottle (itself likely filled with BPA and phthalates) in scolding water, and then pour the stuff all over my sopping wet head. From there, on went a plastic bag for minutes (hours?) of sitting, as this stuff seeped into my young and vulnerable brain scalp. Le sigh. While I have no recollection as to whether this treatment had any effects beyond placebo, I did love the idea of deep conditioning my hair—a ritual I've lost sight of in my cleaner years.
Unfortunate really, since deep conditioning was made for my type of dry unruly hair. You'd think I'd be soaking up the argan and coconut oil on a nightly basis, and yet as much as I love natural oils everywhere on my face and body—I actually despise the feeling and results of oil in my hair. Note: I'm not talking about a little argan on the tips, which I do like, but a full oil soak like they give you during those otherwise amazing ayurvedic massages I rave about. Anyways, I'm getting to a point here I swear!
See, a little while back a reader asked—nay begged!—that we crowdsource on this very topic. Lindsey, you see, is trying to grow her hair long, and desperate for your tips on how to get beautiful shiny, conditioned hair sans the chems. Which got me thinking: I wouldn't mind some recommendations myself.
What I do know, Lindsey, is that washing less—or almost not at all—can seriously improve hair luster for some. Though depending on the nature of your hair it can also turn it to a greasy mess for a period. Otherwise I'm a big believer in eating healthy fats for skin and hair.
What about you guys? Are we deep conditioning? Are we using oils, or just leaving in our favorite natural conditioner for a spell—maybe making our own mix with avocados?
When a brand says right on their website, "what goes onto your skin, goes into your body," I'm going to take a closer look.
I did just that with Griffin Remedy and found some go-to products. Though I typically look for unscented skin and hair products, sometimes I do appreciate a light, energizing scent in the shower. This clean, vegan, gluten-free brand makes a variety of products, and I'm a regular user of their hair care.
Griffin Remedy Daily Shampoo and Daily Conditioner: Both have a pleasant, mild orange scent and are my very favorite scented hair products. The shampoo lathers nicely, and cleans thoroughly but gently. I shampoo every few days or so, and this one is the best for when my hair is really feeling dirty. I often choose this shampoo after a coconut mask, and it gets out just enough oil but leaves what my hair needs. The combination of the orange shampoo and the coconut oil smells sooooooo good. The conditioner is fantastic for no-shampoo days, especially when I don't need a huge amount of moisture, but I want to use a little something. I also like it for post-shampoo, and it's great for helping to rinse out the last bit of henna after I color. They also make a Restorative line (lavender scent) that is more moisturizing, and have a Volumizing line too (lemon verbena scent). The prices are quite reasonable, much less expensive than most clean brands I've tried ($8/8oz bottle). I find them in various local stores, including Whole Foods, and you can order online.
I've also tried in-store testers of some of their lotions (lovely, especially the grapefruit). Have you tried anything from this brand?

How to Lift With a Weight Belt:
Many weightlifters use a weight belt when doing specific exercises. A weight belt will help prevent injury by supporting your lower back while under strain. Although you probably don't need a weight belt for most exercises, you will want to use one during exercises where an increased weight may cause your muscles to fail or seek other muscles for support. This is why professional weightlifters use them in squats, clean presses and snatches- Perform your exercise motions with little or no weight. Focus on your form so that it is clean and you are using the desired muscles
- Wrap the weight belt around your lower back. The thick part of the belt should sit along the lower back, with the buckle at your navel
- Cinch the belt so that it is held securely in place. You want it tight, but not so tight that it impedes breathing
- Perform your exercises with added weight. Once again, make sure that you are using proper form
- Undo the belt in between sets to allow your abdominal region to relax
- Cinch the belt once again for another set. Repeat this until you have completed your workout regimen
How to Use a Waist Trimmer Belt:
The waist trimmer belt is produced by a variety of companies and can be purchased in most major retail stores or from the individual companies online. The belt is made of a flexible, neoprene material that is washable and comfortable to wear during a variety of activities. The belt is one size fits all and should fit most body types- Place the waist trimmer belt around your stomach and use the Velcro straps to fasten it. You can wear the waist trimmer belt right up against your skin or over clothing. The waist trimmer belt is fitted and offers back and stomach support. The neoprene material causes your body to keep in heat in this area as opposed to naturally dispelling it. The extra body heat warms up your core and causes your body to perspire more than normal, even while in a sitting position. This device can be worn during most activities and can cause a visually slimming effect by smoothing out the midsection and aiding in proper posture
- Partake in cardiovascular exercise while wearing the belt. The belt helps support posture so that when you are practicing activities such as jogging or running, the belt helps the muscles to properly support the body. As the device holds in heat, it will cause you to sweat a substantial amount more than you would normally, which causes the body to lose water weight. The loss of water weight in the midsection can help to reveal muscle definition
- Perform some type of exercise to see optimal results from the belt. Even if you aren't a fan of running or jogging, lift weights, or practice aerobics or yoga. The belt doesn't actually cause fat loss. The belt causes the body to shed water weight. True fat loss can be realized from exercising regularly. The belt is not a miracle piece of equipment but rather a weight-loss aid

Best way to install programs?
Hey all! My first post here. Hopefully I can get some good answers!
I've been a long time XP user and avoided the move to Vista until very recently. I'm lucky enough to be able to use Windows 7 full version through Technet now, so I'm moving everything to that today. My question is, when installing applications, it seems a lot of programs have trouble with the new Program Files and Program Files (x86) that Vista and 7 use. Because of the permissions, I suppose. I installed World of Warcraft and it says to move the program somewhere else, because patches will not work properly if it's installed to the default "\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft" folder. I would really like to use Defaults for everything, I don't want to install into seperate folders. Keeping things in \Program Files and \Program Files (x86) as they are by default is what I want to do. If I install everything using "Run as Admin" fromt the right-click context menu, will I have problems down the road with permissions? Is it bad to do this? Should I always run the installer by just double-clicking on my current user (which is in the admin group anyway)? I want to know the best installation practice to get the best security (use of UAC) but I don't want to gimp my programs so that I have to "Run as Admin" everytime I use them, or they need to patch, etc. What's the best method of installing things on Vista and Windows 7 to get the best mix of security, but still use the default installation locations? Currently as a safety, I just installed things to their own folders I made. For example: \Games\World of Warcraft \Games\Guild Wars \Programs\Mozilla Firefox \Programs\Sony Vegas And so forth. This way I'm avoiding the "\Program Files" and "\Program Files (x86)" folders. Is it ok to do this? I feel I'm basically bypassing some of the Windows 7 security features by doing this, but wondering if I HAVE to so that my apps can get the proper permissions to freely update as needed. Sorry for the long post, but I've been looking around on this and haven't really found definitive answers. I'm sure I'll have more questions for any responders as well. |

Hi and welcome to seven forums Im confused. You say I would really like to use Defaults for everything. then I just installed things to their own folders I made. Using default is by far the best bet. You can break alot of updates/upgrades by using non default locations. Could you tell me again what you would rather do. default, or different. Again welcome Ken |

IMO, I don't see it as any problem creating your own game folder and installing the games there...

Usually it isn't a problem but some updaters will break if they dont find things where they think it should be. I regularly move my doc's to a different drive, put pgms where I think they should be but the OP asked abt default or not default. thats the only reason I posted that. Ken |

Thanks for the responses so far.
@ZigZag3143: I WANT to install everything to the default of \Program Files or \Program Files (x86), however, Windows Vista and Windows 7 both have special security on those folders, preventing programs from self-updating, downloading patches, stuff like that. So to get around that, I've installed in custom folders, like \Games and \Programs. For example: Warcraft's installer told me to install somewhere other than \Program Files (x86) intentionally, because it said it would have problems patching if the game was installed in that folder. It's because of Win 7's special restrictions on the \Program Files folders. So, my point is, if it's going to be a problem to put things in Program Files now because of these special restrictions, should I just continue to put things in custom folders like \Games and \Programs? I haven't had any problems doing this with any of my apps that I've tested so far. Currently I do the same on an XP machine that I use also and all works ok. I just would rather use the default if possible, it seems that I'm circumventing part of Windows 7 security by installing outside of \Program Files. At least, the way the permissions appear to be set by default. Does installing programs with "Run as Admin" get around any future problems since it was elevated to Admin status? Or does that help at all? Create more problems, etc? |
My System Specs |
19 Aug 2009 | #6 |
Why is Program Files so hard on programs now if they are installed there, and if so, why is it still the default for everything? If I install things to Program Files, and choose "Install as Admin" or whatever, will I bypass any installation problems? I don't want security hassles, so if something is going to keep itself from updating because it's in Program Files, I'd rather put it in it's own \Programs or \Games folder. If everything WILL work ok, I'd prefer to use the default Program Files location. |
My System Specs |
19 Aug 2009 | #7 |
when I said default I was infering their defualt. where-ever the app wants to put itself. That way whatever upgrade would know right where to find it. either way its not an important issue. More importantly the use-ability of the system is more dependent on the UAC setting. My best advice pick a method and stick to it. Ken |

19 Aug 2009 | #8 |
Thanks Zig. I appreciate the responses.
One more thing: Should I install all programs with "Run as Admin" or does simply double clicking them like the old XP intallations work fine? PS - Posting on my freshly installed Win 7 work machine, woohoo! |

I ironed some dry-clean only jackets & the iron now has melted stains. I scrubbed but it wont come off. tips?
I scrubbed it with a light duty scouring pad with soap but now when I turn the iron back on, the old stains are melting off and staining my new clothes.
Can I clean it off completely somehow?
Or do I have no option but to toss it?
And is it just dry-clean clothes that I must avoid ironing in the future?
Thanks in advance.

Use spray on oven cleaner and wipe with a clean rag-rinse well. Allow electric iron to dry 24Hrs before pluging in and using. If your scrubing scratched the surface use 440grit sand paper to smooth it then lightly rub with wet 440grit sand paper to polish the surface to a non-stick finish. Good Luck!
Scorching is what causes stains on the iron, and that's due to ironing with a too hot iron and using water or starch. Dry cleaning itself doesn't prevent ironing (at least with an iron without the non-stick coating — as I've ironed a lot of dry cleaned clothes over the years without issue).
You can try one of those Magic Eraser style scrubbing pads (Mr. Clean brand for example) and scrub with it (will take elbow grease, but it won't ruin the iron surface). Or use a lye based product like an oven cleaner (this is best, but you have to use the iron for a while steaming to make sure to get rid of any junk in the steam holes).
But it's important to turn down the heat so scorching won't happen. It needs to be just hot enough that when you spray the fabric, it won't burn. Experiment with a 100% cotton pillowcase. You'll get the the feel what temps work best with what fabric — especially cotton/poly blends. Once you do, you can iron anything (including how to not get fusable interfacing glued all over an iron) without worry.
I fear you've committed a cardinal sin! It would appear that ironing the stain has fixed the stain to the fabric. You could try an age old stain removal dodge by ironing over the offending mark with brown wrapping paper between the iron and fabric. Sometimes works. The idea being that the "stain" sticks to the paper leaving the fabric clean.
As to not ironing in the future I suggest you check the label & see if tumble drying is suggested or not. I find some items so market still need a light iron to make them look presentable.
Hope this helps.
You can get a pad of 000 or "fine" steel wool and get it sudsy with complexion or Ivory soap and polish the sole plate with that. Too much water and the pad will not glide across and too little water it will not work either. A Brillo pad will work too but since it is coarser it can scratch. Be sure to completely wash off any traces of steel bits since they will rust and stain. Do not use oven cleaner since it will pit an aluminum sole plate. It would be OK for a stainless one though. The ways that I know how to get scorch out of fabric involve washing in water, so I am not sure how to get them out of dry clean items. Any fabric can be ironed, it is just some that require low temperatures.

The Lightning were outshot 39-18 in the game.
When the Detroit Red Wings come to town, it's an opportunity for every other team to see how they measure up. Whether you like Detroit or not, they have been almost inarguably the most successful franchise in hockey for more than a decade. They have a system and a program, and it doesn't matter who the players are or even who the coaches are, they win hockey game. That's how they could absorb the losses of Hall of Fame caliber players like Steve Yzerman and Brendan Shanahan without skipping a beat. They are the measuring stick.
In the 2003-2004 regular season when the Lightning scratched a clawed their way to a point against Detroit in a very evenly matched contest between what would eventually become the first and second highest point totals in the league, it became very clear the Lightning were a legit contender for the Stanley Cup they hoisted at the end of that season. Tonight? Not. Even. Close. Yeah, I know it was a one goal game on paper, but when you get outshot by more than a 2:1 ratio and get completely outclassed in the final frame when you entered the period with a one goal lead to protect, it shows that you're miles behind the big dogs.
Now the Lightning have their first three game regulation losing streak of the season, and one has to wonder if the scenario we wondered about this summer on Bolt Prospects is potentially about to come to pass. Will the organization pull together, or does this all degenerate into a circular firing squad? Honestly, I think there's only two people who can really pull this out of the gutter right now: Vincent Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis. This is their team and it's been their team for years. The solutions clearly aren't coming from the front office or the coaching staff, so they need to come from inside the room from the team leaders.
Steven Stamkos was -1 in 9:51 with 1 hit and was 40% on draws.

Tesco aims to re-engage consumers with 'new conversation' in spring ads
Tesco has outlined its ambitions for a spring advertising campaign that it promises will engage British consumers in "a new conversation" with the brand.
Matt Atkinson: Tesco's chief marketing officer outlines spring ad campaign
In a video blog on YouTube (see below), Matt Atkinson, the supermarket's chief marketing officer, admitted that it had mooted dropping the slogan 'Every Little Helps', but ultimately decided it was a "really poignant statement of Phil [Clarke, Tesco's chief executive]'s intent".
Also appearing in the blog, the staff at the brand's ad agency, Wieden + Kennedy, admitted that the brand needed to "get back to what 'Every Little Helps' set out to do – it's all about helping".
Atkinson said: "It has to be not 'Every Little Helps: Tesco', but 'Tesco: Every Little Helps' – the customer and the colleagues and the communities that we serve."
Tesco appointed Wieden + Kennedy in the latter part of 2012, with new work that included a seasonal campaign that aimed to "treat Christmas as a feeling, not a season".
Atkinson said: "The work was an evolution towards the new voice we are creating for the brand. So we're therefore trying to stay true to the heart of 'Every Little Helps' and reimagine it in a way that brings a little humour back.
"Much more than that, we want to have a new conversation, and the new conversation is about being part of the communities we're in, it's about being welcome, it's about making a difference to the people that we employ and doing good things with our size."

Case of Australian who hanged himself in high-security Israeli prison is the kind of publicity the agency hates.
The front page of Israeli newspaper Maariv shows a picture of a man believed to be an Australian-Israeli citizen who mysteriously died in prison after an apparent career in Israel's spy agency.
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - In the space of three days, a two-year-old mystery about an unidentified prisoner who hanged himself in a high-security Israeli prison has become a scandal for Israel's vaunted Mossad spy agency.
The Israeli government now acknowledges that Prisoner X was an Australian citizen named Ben Zygier who was held in solitary confinement for eight months in the notorious Ayalon prison before he hanged himself. But the details of Zygier's life as a Mossad agent are still emerging, and with each new fact, analysts find a pattern of a spy agency that let down its guard and then perhaps went to extremes to cover up its responsibility.
"This is not an affair; it's a catastrophe," Uri Misgav wrote in the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz. "The real issue is the state's spiriting away an Israeli-Australian citizen, who worked for it, and locking him up hermetically until he died in strange, suspicious circumstances."
Some wonder how a man whom friends described as a braggart who liked to show off that he was in the Mossad not only joined the spy agency but also likely turned into a double agent.
For two years, the Israeli government used its censorship authority to keep the story out of the headlines, banning mention of the suicide at Ayalon of an unidentified prisoner. The case was considered so sensitive that even mentioning the publication ban was prohibited.
But the details of Zygier's life have poured out since the government partially lifted the gag order in response to an Australian TV investigation into the case.
Records show that Zygier took advantage of an Australian law that allows citizens to change their names once a year. He took out at least three additional passports, using the names Ben Alon, Ben Allen and Benjamin Burrows. Zygier used those passports to travel to Iran and Syria, among other countries, and he applied for a work visa for Italy, according to public records in Australia.
Israeli officials have confirmed that "job" for the Mossad was probably to set up a straw company in Italy that sold electrical equipment to Iran. In those shipments, intelligence officials add, he could have sent other equipment necessary for Mossad operations in Iran.
In late 2009, it appeared that Zygier was on the verge of disclosing secrets about Israel's use of dual nationals in its spy operations. After a visit to Australia, Zygier was arrested in Israel in February 2010.

Hey guys,
Not sure if to post in this area or another. This is a true experience that happened to me last year. Hope you enjoy.
I've always been a pretty slutty guy, I just loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee sex!
One of my sluttest was going to this adult sex shop. I use to go there quite often to buy porn or toys etc. Anyways, I'd always see the same guy working there (he's the owner) and always have a little chat. Everytime I would go in I could see him checking me out. So one night I decided to go in near the end of the night when he was closing. I asked him I could quickly look at buying some porn and then let him close up. I started looking at the porn dvds and asked him what were some good ones. We started looking at some Dvds together. My dick got rock hard and it was poking through my gym shorts. I saw him looking at it but not saying anything.
I picked a couple Dvds and we went to the register, my dick still there poking out. He started talking about how he was going to go home and watch some porn as he was feeling horny. At that moment, I dropped my pants, my cock solid,, grabbed it and motioned to him. I asked him if he wanted to fuck. He started to grind on my cock and said he'd love to.
He had a smooth ass and waxed cock. We sucked each other off for a bit before I fucked him on the counter. Best was when he got out a 9 inch black dildo and asked me to ride it while he filmed me.
He finished up by blowing his load while I was fucking his ass. I finished up by blowing my load into his mouth and getting him to spit in back into my mouth. I am a real slut sometimes.
Sorry for the lack of details I'm pressed for time! anyways thought I'd share!

Katchkie Farm is a year-round organic farming operation owned by the NYC-based catering company, Great Performances. An industry first, Katchkie Farm represents a commitment to celebrating local flavors and an investment in sustainable agriculture and good earth practices. Katchkie, which sits on 60 acres in Columbia County, NY, yielded its first harvest in 2007.
Katchkie supplies Great Performances with fresh produce for special events, as well as three farmers' markets throughout New York and GP's six cafes. It is the source for a line of artisanal products including the acclaimed Katchkie Ketchup, Thunder Pickles, and Katchkie Farm Bob-A-Que Sauce. As a unique resource to GP, the Farm inspired GP's 100 Mile Menu for which all principal ingredients are sourced from within a 100-mile radius of New York City.
In addition to the traditional farm, Katchkie also houses The Sylvia Center, an educational nonprofit that introduces children to the pleasures and benefits of healthy, sustainable food through farm visits and cooking workshops. The Sylvia Center (TSC) aims to address issues in children�?¢ï¿½?�?s health by increasing access to the experiences of growing food and transforming it into a healthy meal. We inspire young people to discover good nutrition through thoughtful, delicious experiences with healthful, seasonal fruits and vegetables, on the farm and in the kitchen. We strive to increase access to direct experiences through which children come to understand what food is, how it is grown, and, perhaps most important, that they themselves can learn and choose to make good food for their own bodies. The Sylvia Center offers a set of food literacy programs that bolsters children�?¢ï¿½?�?s and families�?¢ï¿½?�? knowledge about agriculture, food, nutrition, and the environment.
