The Anton Bauer Tandem 150 Modular Power System does double duty as both an on-camera DC power supply and battery charger--at the same time. Dividing its 150W output evenly between camera and battery, the Tandem 150 will automatically stop charging and switch to a full 150W power supply if the camera draws more than 75W. Using the included QR-TM Gold Mount device to attach a wide range of Anton Bauer batteries to your camera, the Tandem 150 not only reduces 80% of the heat that can come from the back of a camera, it's the smallest, lightest such device on the market. Can also be powered via an optional cigarette adapter or solar panel.
- 100-240 volt wide range input
- Optimal for high power applications
- Fully automatic
- Ideal for remote and on-location shoots

Hillary Clinton n'est pas Charlie
John McCormack of the Weekly Standard notes that Hillary Clinton has not commented about the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris that occurred more than week ago. Why hasn't she? McCormack believes Clinton has remained silent because of her past failure to defend free speech in the face of Islamist violence. I believe McCormack is right. Clinton's deplorable record on the issue is undeniable. McCormack reminds us: Three days after the »
The racial politics of seating white sex offender in state legislature
Last month, Joseph Morrissey was convicted of contributing to the delinquency of a 17-year-old girl with whom he had a sexual relationship. The girl worked as a receptionist in Morrissey's law office. At the time of his conviction, Morrissey was a delegate to the Virginia General Assembly. He promptly resigned, and then mounted a campaign to fill the vacancy his resignation created. In a special election, with light turnout, the »
Obama whispers "bang-bang" to terrorists
According to the Washington Post, weapons and ammunition are in such short supply at the centers where Iraqi army units receive training to fight ISIS that the trainees are yelling "bang-bang" instead of shooting. Last August, when President Obama announced that the U.S. would undertake a mostly proxy war against ISIS, I would have said that yelling "bang-bang" is the perfect metaphor for his anti-terrorism campaign. Today, whispering "bang-bang" is »
Domestic surveillance — we need it now more than ever
In his observations on terrorism in Belgium, John writes that electronic surveillance of some sort very likely played a role in enabling the authorities to strike before the terrorists could carry out their planned attack. John is right. But we don't need to look to Belgium to see the critical role such surveillance plays in protecting against terrorism. Recently, authorities here in the U.S. were able to prevent an attack »
Stephanie Cutter: Gruber was an Obamacare architect
The question of whether Jonathan Gruber is an architect of Obamacare has, I think, been settled. But in case there's any doubt, a memo by Stephanie Cutter, President Obama's deputy campaign manager in 2012, should erase it. According to Patrick Hawley of the Daily Caller, the Cutter memo was prepared in advance of Obama's first debate with Mitt Romney. In relevant part, it states: So, what's the net impact of »
Stockholm syndrome at the Washington Post
Stockholm syndrome occurs when hostages express empathy, sympathy, and/or positive feelings about their captors, even to the point of identifying with and/or defending them. The Washington Post, whose reporter Jason Rezaian has been imprisoned in Tehran for more than five months, appears to be experiencing something resembling Stockholm syndrome. Consider this article by Carol Morello. She reports that Iran's foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, has expressed concern about what he »
A day of reckoning for "disparate impact" housing discrimination cases
Next Wednesday, the Supreme Court will hear oral argument in a Texas case in which the issue is whether claims of "disparate impact discrimination" can be brought under the Fair Housing Act. The case is Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs v. The Inclusive Communities Project, Inc. "Disparate impact discrimination" occurs when a policy disproportionately excludes or injures a particular group and the policy is not shown to be »
My encounter with Walter Berns
Tributes are pouring in for Walter Berns, the conservative scholar who died over the weekend. Steve has written two of the best. He is joined by a host of conservative stars who knew Berns as teacher, mentor, colleague, and friend. I knew Walter Berns for a different reason. I once backed into his car. The accident occurred in the parking lot of the apartment building where my parents and Berns »
Why did Obama stay home?
Just about everyone has offered an opinion as to why President Obama stayed away from the Paris anti-terrorism rally and why he sent no top administration official. I have a theory which I'll offer momentarily. Let me begin, though, by saying that I don't think it's a big deal that Obama didn't go. The massive turnout of ordinary Parisians was important because their appearances were sincere. It's heartening that such »
Time for a "backlash" in Europe
It's a familiar pattern in the U.S. and in Europe: within hours of a terrorist attacks by Islamists, the media begins fretting about an impending "backlash" against Muslims. Thus, the Washington Post informs us that "the terrorist violence [in Paris] is fueling fears of a backlash against Muslims, particuarly among France's community of 5 million, the largest in Europe." But what to a liberal is "backlash" may, to a more »
Is Islam "a religion of peace"?
The question has an essentialist ring to it, and thus is probably best left unasked. Indeed, I doubt it would be discussed had not two American presidents referred to Islam as a religion of peace. But Presidents Bush and Obama raised the issue and so we're stuck with the debate. Max Boot offers a sensible perspective: Is Islam a religion of peace, as many claim, or is it a religion »
What's the difference between Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush?
Clearly Romney and Bush disagree about immigration policy. But the key difference, I think, is this: Mitt Romney is a patrician who lacks the common touch, but wants to show he doesn't think he's better than the rest of us. Jeb Bush is a partician who possesses the common touch to some extent, but seems bent on showing his superiority. That's my takeaway from the former Florida governor's obnoxious claim »
Do Jews have a future in France?
Ten years ago, on the one and only occasion I met Bat Ye'or, I told her that my wife's cousin and her family of six, living in a Paris suburb with a large, increasingly hostile Muslim population, should seriously consider leaving France. Bat Ye'or strongly disagreed with me, arguing that French Jews should stay and fight. The family did stay and it did fight — literally in the case of »
Jeb Bush v. Mitt Romney — the personal is political
It looks increasingly likely that Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney will both seek the Republican presidential nomination. Washington Post political reporters Phillip Rucker and Robert Costa discuss the relationship between the two. The first part of their article is the equivalent of a friend telling you, "I like Joe." The second part of the article is the equivalent of what comes after the friend adds, "but." As always the second »
Questions for Loretta Lynch
George Will offers a list of questions he thinks Senators should put to Loretta Lynch, President Obama's nominee for Attorney General. The purpose of the questions, Will says, is to "highlight festering legal problems." The first question pertains to attempts by the federal government to "coerce colleges and universities into jettisoning crucial defendants' protections when adjudicating, in improvised tribunals, accusations of sexual assault." The question is well worth asking if »
Prosecute Petreaus?
The New York Times reports that FBI and Justice Department prosecutors have recommended bringing felony charges against Gen. David Petraeus. He would be charged with providing classified information to Paula Broadwell, an author and an officer in the reserves, with whom he was having an affair. Eric Holder reportedly is trying to make up his mind on whether to prosecute. Petraeus denies that he gave classified information to Broadwell. However, »
Romney "considering" presidential bid
Mitt Romney reportedly has told a group of donors in New York that he is considering running for president again next year. With Jeb Bush trying to round up donors, Romney needed to indicate interest, but only if he has some. Clearly, he does. Romney is expected to announce his decision within the next 60 days, according to Spencer Zwick, one his advisers. Having reportedly told the donor group that »

This one truly freaks me out. This little girl from China looks so much like a doll that part of me still doesn't believe she actually is a real person. The pictures suggest that this kid spends a lot of time masquerading as a toy.
Her resemblance to a porcelain or plastic play thing is uncanny and unnerving as well. So much so that I wouldn't be surprised if a crazed parent frantically shopping for a last minute birthday gift for their own daughter wouldn't grab her by accident if she was standing still in her local mall's toy section.

The dynamic assembly and disassembly of membrane cytoskeleton junctional complexes is critical in cell migration. Here we describe a novel phosphorylation mechanism that regulates the hyaluronan receptor CD44. In resting cells, CD44 is constitutively phosphorylated at a single serine residue, Ser325. After protein kinase C is activated, a switch in phosphorylation results in CD44 being phosphorylated solely at an alternative residue, Ser291. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) monitored by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and chemotaxis assays we show that phosphorylation of Ser291 modulates the interaction between CD44 and the cytoskeletal linker protein ezrin in vivo, and that this phosphorylation is critical for CD44-dependent directional cell motility.

AT&T To Acquire T-Mobile From Deutsche Telekom
Re:Ze Germans (748 comments)
AFAIK, T-Mobile actually has the largest 4G network in the USA. I have yet to encounter an area where the little 4G icon on my phone switches to 3G or Edge. The speed seems to be about on par with my wireless home network.

We have a large Norway Spruce growing 10 feet from the exterior walls of our townhouse. It is approx 70 to 80 feet high. It is 83 inches at the base diameter. The width is 50 or more feet. The tree faces south west and appears healthy although there is constant needle shedding and cones. How old do you estimate this tree to be. |

Probably pretty impressive. What part of the country are you in? This is a difficult thing to estimate. My first guess is as old as the townhouse. By counting tree rings (after I cut down the trees) I could see the big ash's and silver maples by my home were all planted in the decade after it was built. My second guess would be height divided by 2 feet per year. Maybe plus a few years if you are outside prime Norway Spruce growing territory. |
I once cut down a norway spruce with a base diameter of aprox 24" that was only 25 years old. They grow extremeley fast if there is enough sunlight and streaming ground water. But planted trees in upland soil in the timber trade are often cut down after 60-70 years when they are 20-25". That is in their native range, they might grow faster or slower in a different climate. |

get inside it.. and look up .... and you will see yearly whorls of growth .. one whorl per year ... you will probably see.. that the inside looks like a ladder... perhaps 1 to 3 feet apart ... count those.. and you will be in the ballpark ... needle shed is normal ... as long as its interior older needles ... and that is why in a spruce forest.. the earth is carpeted with needles .... its a great.. natural.. FREE mulch ... i hope you arent raking them up all the time ... the cones ... are supposed to fall off ... and i would not be surprised.. if you said nothing grows under it ...and that is also normal ... it is a super competitor ... at this point in life .... i dont know.. how happy i would be about an 80 foot tree.. 10 feet from my house ... ken |

...get what you're saying there Ken, but NS trees really hardly ever topple over, shed branches, or any other variety of calamity......that I've seen. Anything is possible, of course! +oM |
83" diameter!? That's 7 ft in diameter! You prb'ly mean circumference. Very rough guess, but a range of age might be 50-120 yrs. One that's 85' tall nearby is known to be about 70 yrs old. |
Below is the N spruce I mentioned -- about 85' tall & planted roughly 70 yrs ago, growing in very good soil/moisture near Mt Savage, western MD: |

tom.. i agree about the spruce.. not really a storm damage tree ... you should note.. i didnt give the whole sleeping nightmare scenario .... usually.. that type of tree ends up failing.. to a soil saturation problem ... in that the soil liquifies ...see link and it is still ten feet from the house ... ken |
Here is a link that might be useful: sorta like thje first pic here
I had heard that people used to plant one of them on each side of their doorway after marriage or buying their home. I can't remember if it was done here or in Europe. If it wasn't the NS it was a tall conifer of some kind. I am thinking it was the NS in particular though. |
I don't recognize that custom with planting NS. At least not common in northen europe but maybe in eastern parts. It is, or was, normal to plant a tree when your house was built though, but not NS. Maple, linden, elm or cherry was probably most common, or pine or rowan in the north. If that tree was hurt in any way, something bad was bound to happen to that house it protected. |

Say what you will; when it comes to making sex tapes, Kendra Wilkinson is all about equal opportunity.
Radar Online reports that a second sex tape featuring the Girls Next Door star has emerged, this time of her frolicking with another woman reportedly named Taryn. News of the tape was first revealed by Taryn's ex-boyfriend Kavi Cernak because, well, that's just the classy thing to do, but multiple independent sources have confirmed its existence.
The tape was reportedly made some time before Wilkinson moved in with Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner.
According to a source familiar with the contents of the new tape, the girl-on-girl play involves sex toys and features the kind of activities that the reality star and new mom perhaps wouldn't want to be made public:
"This is really, really graphic and showing her in compromising positions; things you would think would be embarrassing for her."
She's probably starting to get used to it. Earlier this month, a sex tape surfaced of Wilkinson getting busy with former beau Justin Frye. That tape will be released by Vivid Entertainment on May 28 under the title Kendra Exposed.
Maybe there's time to turn it into a box set?

Ultra Bob,
A property owner has the right to a "reasonable"
use of the airspace immediately above his/her property. Above that fuzzy
minimum altitude, the US government has sovereign rights to control airspace.
With the potential for drones flitting about the sky above our homes,
perhaps it's time to revise the boundaries above our properties -- upward.

This review is for the Bohemian Rhapsody palette which is from the same Runway collection line. First of all, I love the packaging. It's portable, smaller than most smart phones, and comes with a huge mirror, which makes it my go-to palette for travelling. The top row is very glittery, which I like but others might not. There's a silver with very chunky glitter, a slightly chalky shimmery champagne, a very pretty almost mauve-y shimmer, a gorgeous-yet-crumbly taupe shimmer, and a cute peach shimmer. The silver is the worst in regards to fall out, but they all have it. The bottom row is all matte, with a peachy color a few shades lighter than my skin tone, a very pale chalky beige shade, a cool toned light brown, a medium gray, and a black. This row is great for a very subtle natural eye, and the black is my favorite black eyeshadow. The mattes are surprisingly soft, besides the first pale shade. They all blend pretty well. Overall this is a nice palette in my opinion, I find most neutral palettes boring and this has just enough color and shimmer to spice it up a bit. It's a good travel palette since it has all the essentials to a neutral eye (highlighter, lid, crease color, even eyeliner if you wanted to use the black, which I have done a lot). The glitter will be a turn off for many, though. I wouldn't repurchase because it's discontinued and not amazing enough for me to want backups. For those who do still want this (or any other Runway palettes), I'm pretty sure cherryculture still has them.

I love this palette! The colours are gorgeous! I'm glad there's a matte colour in there, I do find the colours to be pigminted. However the white does seem to be a little chalky?.. regardless the colours are amazing!
The packaging is cute and compact, perfect for travel! I bought it online for $7 and I'm totally glad I did! I love it!

NYX really cuts corners in their eyeshadow palettes. There are some OK colors in here, the beigey/champagne shimmers all look the same, and the other shimmery colors are a joke - not pigmented at all. These colors aren't easy to blend, either. Not worth spending any money on this. Buy single eyeshadows from NYX instead.

This product should have higher ratings! I use this palette every day. All of the colors are super pigmented, and it is the perfect palette for people who love the nude look. I use the dark brown color for my eyebrows every day, and a few of the matte colors work great as base colors. All the colors are very soft, and they are super easy to work with and blend. The palette also includes a good sized mirror. I love it!

After using this of and on for a couple of years I would say that I don't like this palette. De colors look great in the pan but they all look the same when applied, except for the matte colors. The only color I used up from this pallete is the dark brown matte, that I used as an eyeliner. All the other colors where just meh to me, and I would only recommend it if you like allot of similar brown colors because they all look a like for the biggest part. I dropped my palette and it broke so that was my excuse to finally get rid of it!!

I had had my eye on this palette for a while after seeing its natural colors and seeing the reviews on here, but I learned that it is discontinued... so color me excited when I found it in a clearance bin at Ulta for less than $5!
It's comparable to Urban Decay's palettes, but the colors are more neutral-to-cool than UD (much better for my fair/cool skin tone), and I'm not so much into makeup to warrant spending $50 on eyeshadows. My husband would think I'm nuts, and rightly so. And as other reviewers have stated, some of the colors are very similar. I've looked at them closely, trying to figure out how exactly they're different in terms of shade, amount of shimmer, etc... but nonetheless, all of the colors are beautiful, highly pigmented, and the consistency is quite silky and easy to blend. I also like that none of the colors are obnoxiously glittery. They're slightly shimmered, with a few matte colors.
Overall, I'm very happy with it. Good quality, good packaging, good colors. I'll be heading back to Ulta very soon to stock up on this palette while they still have it.

I absolutely, positively love this product! Some eyeshadows are kind of similar but I've found I can build these shadows up. I've heard people compare the colors to those found in the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette, but I couldn't tell you for sure. I compared these shadows to my original Naked and found that these shades are more cool toned, which definitely works for my pale skin. Also, love love love the packaging. It's so sleek and very nice (black and white appeals to me when it comes to makeup packaging, I think it looks chic), and also has a large mirror, which is perfect if you are traveling. This palette is definitely worth it's price, technically a dollar per shadow which is an excellent deal. I will definitely repurchase this in the future.

I quite like this palette.
The mirror is very useful and the colours aren't too bad.
The colours are really pigmented, but some of them are virtually identical when on the skin and look much better in the palette.
There are 3 matte colours, with the others all being shimmery. These matte colours are super pigmented and really hard to blend out, so precise application is essential.
Overall, I like it and use it regularly. Its slim, compact and versitile.

I received this shadow set yesterday and have put it on today and I love it. The colours are great. However the best part is how well they blend and the colour strength.
I used the NYX flesh coloured eye primer, then the matte white, matte pink and matte dark brown. The colour strength was potent and the blendability was fantastic. I am more impressed with these shadows than the MAC ones I purchased a few weeks ago (and I was quite happy with those... until now!)

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rested its case against Fabrice Tourre, the former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) vice president accused of civil fraud for his role in a failed $1 billion investment related to the housing market crash.
Tourre won't call witnesses and also rested his case yesterday. The jurors in the case were sent home, and closing arguments in the trial are scheduled for today.
U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest denied Tourre's motion to dismiss the case against him yesterday, after the close of the SEC's evidence.
The SEC claims Tourre intentionally misled participants in a 2007 deal known as Abacus about the role played by Paulson & Co., the hedge fund run by John Paulson. The SEC claims Tourre hid that Paulson helped choose the portfolio of subprime mortgage-backed securities underlying Abacus, then made a billion-dollar bet it would fail.
SEC lawyers questioned Tourre about e-mails in which he sent Abacus marketing materials to clients and members of Goldman Sachs's sales staff. The SEC claims he broke the law by offering investments in Abacus without disclosing Paulson's role in selecting the portfolio.
Paulson didn't testify at the trial.
Tourre has kept a low profile since enduring the questions of a U.S. Senate subcommittee in April 2010 alongside other Goldman Sachs executives. The firm, which is paying Tourre's legal fees, settled SEC allegations for $550 million, a record at the time.
The case is SEC v. Tourre, 10-cv-03229, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

EU Regulators Seek to Police Use of CoCos in Banker Bonuses
Banks in the European Union face limits on how they can use securities such as contingent convertible bonds in bonus awards, as regulators seek to crack down on any attempts by lenders to avoid the full force of EU pay curbs.
The European Banking Authority published draft rules that would prevent banks from offering staff dividends on contingent capital instruments, such as CoCo bonds, that are out of step with those available to outside investors, the agency said in an e-mailed statement yesterday. The measures would also require holders of the securities to face a real risk of losses if the bank's performance plunges.
Securities issued as part of bonus awards "should take account of the institutions' long-term interests and incentivize prudent risk-taking of staff," the EBA said. "In this respect, these instruments must have a sufficient maturity to cater for deferral and retention arrangements."
The EU this year bolstered its banker pay rules, already among the toughest in the world, to include a ban on bonuses more than twice as large as salaries. The updated law, set to take effect from January, gives banks more scope to use CoCos and other contingent capital to meet an existing EU requirement that at least half of a bonus award must be in shares or other non-cash instruments.
CoCos are a form of fixed-income security that automatically converts into ordinary shares if a bank's capital falls through a pre-determined floor. This type of bond can mimic the clawback rules applied to cash bonus awards by ensuring bankers face losses if a company fails to perform as strongly as expected.
Banks have already taken nascent steps to use contingent capital instruments in pay packages. The EU legislation requires the EBA to define rules of the road to prevent such instruments being used in a way that undermines the bonus curbs. The draft EBA rules include minimum capital levels at which writedowns, or conversions of the debt into equity, must happen, in order to ensure that the risk of losses is real.
EU rules cover categories of staff identified by the bloc's regulations as material risk takers. The EBA said it would seek views on the plans until Oct. 29, and hold a hearing on Oct. 3.
EU Bank-Capital Rules Face Compliance Probe by Basel Group
European Union bank-capital rules, already criticized by global regulators, face another international probe just months after they start to take effect next year.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision will review how well the EU has applied its standards, Wayne Byres, the group's secretary general, said in an interview. An earlier investigation, based on a draft version of the EU plans, pointed to loopholes and triggered a rebuttal from Michel Barnier, the bloc's financial services chief.
The EU emerged bruised from last year's process that cast doubt on its claims to be fully in line with a global pact to beef up banks' defenses against financial crises. While the Basel group has also indicated that the U.S. will face a follow-up review, the chances that the EU will be judged non-compliant because of the flexibility afforded to banks, Karen Shaw Petrou, managing partner of Washington-based research firm Federal Financial Analytics Inc. said in an e-mail.
The EU is set to phase in its version of the Basel accord starting in January, and the rules will fully apply as of 2019. Basel III requires banks to hold capital equivalent to at least 7 percent of their risk weighted assets, while also meeting an indebtedness limit and liquidity requirements.
In last year's scorecard, published in October, the committee concluded that the EU's proposals were not specific enough in limiting the range of instruments banks may count as core capital and also said lenders were given too much scope to label government debt as risk free -- so escaping holding capital against it.
The future impact of Basel rules on EU lenders was underscored by data published by the European Banking Authority in March. It said EU banks would have needed an extra 112.4 billion euros ($149 billion) in their core reserves to meet the Basel bank capital rules had the standards been enforced in mid-2012.

Deloitte Ignored Ethics Before MG Rover Collapse, Tribunal Says
Deloitte LLP disregarded ethical codes while advising on transactions involving the now-defunct U.K. car company MG Rover Group Ltd., an accounting tribunal said yesterday.
Deloitte and one of its former partners didn't consider conflicts of interest and failed to safeguard against "self-interest" in advising both MG Rover and Phoenix Venture Holdings Ltd., its parent company at the time, the Financial Reporting Council Tribunal ruled, according to a statement on its website.
"Deloitte's advice, which itself was not criticized, helped to generate over 650 million pounds ($998 million) of value for the MG Rover Group, keeping the company alive for five years longer than might have been the case and securing 5,000 jobs in the West Midlands during this period," James Igoe, a spokesman for Deloitte, said in a statement on the tribunal's decision.
MG Rover went bankrupt in 2005 with 1.3 billion pounds of debt and some 6,000 people lost their jobs. Nanjing Automobile Group Corp., a state-owned Chinese company, bought the assets of MG Rover in July of that year for about $97 million.
Barclays Said to Lose in Bid to Get More Time for Capital
Barclays Plc (BARC), Britain's second-largest bank by assets, won't get the extra time it was seeking to meet regulators' demands to boost capital, according to a person with direct knowledge of the situation.
The Prudential Regulation Authority has told the lender it won't get until the end of 2014 to increase capital to at least 3 percent of assets, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the move hasn't been made public. The bank, which holds the least capital as a proportion of its assets of Britain's four biggest banks, is considering selling new stock or contingent convertible bonds to plug the gap, two people with knowledge of the talks said.
To meet the ratio this year, the bank will have to raise either 7 billion pounds ($11 billion) in equity or cut 240 billion pounds of assets, analysts estimate. The bank was one of only two to miss the regulator's target in June. Nationwide Building Society, the country's biggest customer-owned lender, was given until the end of 2015 to make up the shortfall.
Barclays said in a statement it has held talks with the PRA and will update the market when it reports earnings today.
Deutsche Bank AG and Credit Suisse Group AG, Barclays's corporate brokers, are already preparing for a potential share sale, according to another person with knowledge of the talks.
Officials at Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse and the PRA in London declined to comment.
Bharara Seeks Cohen Civil Case Stay Pending Criminal Outcome
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara asked an administrative judge to stay the Securities and Exchange Commission's action against billionaire Steven A. Cohen until related criminal cases against his hedge fund and two former employees are resolved.
In a document dated July 26, Bharara said the SEC enforcement staff doesn't object to postponing the administrative proceeding, which it filed on July 19 alleging that Cohen failed to supervise two portfolio managers who now face criminal insider trading charges.
Bharara last week announced related criminal charges against Cohen's Stamford, Connecticut-based hedge fund SAC Capital Advisors LP, calling it "a veritable magnet for market cheaters" and saying the fund was being held responsible for insider trading by seven portfolio managers and analysts who worked there. Cohen hasn't personally been charged criminally and has said that he will fight the SEC's administrative action.
Bharara said in the motion that the civil and criminal proceedings will involve many of the same witnesses and other evidence. Therefore, having both proceed at the same time "will substantially prejudice the pending criminal prosecutions and hinder" the criminal enforcement of the securities laws at issue, Bharara said.
SEC spokesman John Nester and Jonathan Gasthalter, a spokesman for SAC at Sard Verbinnen & Co., declined to comment.
The SEC's Chief administrative law judge Brenda P. Murray had scheduled an initial hearing in Cohen's matter for Aug. 26.

The Rock: Nene provides durability, consistency in the paint
As the 2010-11 season approaches, Nuggets.com is taking a closer look at each Nuggets player and their prospects for the upcoming season. Assistant coach Chad Iske was kind enough to provide a candid scouting report, which reflects the views of the Nuggets coaching staff as a whole.
Today's featured player is Nene, who was invaluable to the Nuggets last season while playing in all 82 games for the first time in his career. Nene fortified his status as one of the league's most dependable centers, shooting .587 from the field while averaging 13.8 points and 7.6 rebounds.
A playmaker in the pivot, Nene also averaged career-high 2.5 assists, which was second among all NBA centers, and no center recorded more steals than the sure-handed Brazilian during the 2009-10 season.
Nene's durability and consistency will be prized from the very start of 2010-11, as fellow big men Chris Andersen and Kenyon Martin recovery from knee operations. If the Nuggets can start the season strong, there's a possibility that Nene contributions could merit All-Star consideration.
Here are a few more things to note about Nene (formerly Maybyner Rodney Hilario) as he enters his ninth NBA season:
In a testament to his efficiency, Nene needed just 32 minutes to record 20 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, four steals and four blocked shots in a victory over the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 17. He became the first player in Nuggets NBA history to reach those levels in five categories in a single game.
"We were happy about Nene playing a full season, staying healthy and fighting through the grind of the season while having to deal with the rigors of post play night in and night out. Him playing the whole year was huge. He's kind of the unsung hero, the backbone of the team in that regard. He was there every night."
"We always want Nene to be a little more assertive. We need to get him more touches than he's gotten in the past and have him be a more integral part of the offense because he's so good creating out of the post for other people. He does so many things well that go unnoticed that you want him to keep doing those things.
"A lot of times with Nene, the focus is brought to the things that he doesn't do, but he doesn't lose his battle very often. He wins his individual battle more times than not."
"It was normal, consistent. That is what I look for."
"I can go higher on the field-goal percentage, so I want to raise that."
"I want to shoot 60 percent from the field."
17 Number of games in which Nene shot at least 70 percent from the field last season, including nine games of 80 percent or better and one 6-for-6 game against Memphis on Nov. 1.

Sailing Schools: St Thomas vs. Tortola?

Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post
Rep Power:
I started with a sailing course in St Thomas and it was the most fun vacation I've ever been on. It was a combined ASA 101 and 103 class over 8 days of living aboard and sailing around the virgin islands (both US and British, including Tortola). We visited a different island every day, sometimes 2 per day. We'd sail starting early in the morning, arrive somewhere around noon, eat lunch either aboard or ashore, have the "classroom" part of the class (usually ashore in a bar), then swim or whatever, have dinner, explore the island, etc. Some days the "lunch" stop would be early enough that we'd continue sailing to a different anchorage for the night. The school was the Maryland School of Sailing and Seamanship, which runs their summer classes on the Chesapeake and their winter classes out of St Thomas. I highly recommend them. I have no affiliation other than being a satisfied customer.

Now she and Felicity can play with them...
It must be the gloomy day, the table is much brighter in real life.
The doll I used for Bo Peep is an Madame Alexander doll I got for Christmas in the late 1940's. My sister and I each got one for Birthdays and Christmas for several years. I don't know what her real name is. We didn't keep the boxes. [how foolish]
Luckily I didn't have to buy anything for this table, the ewes are from my Nativity and the little lambs are candle huggers that I use as napkin rings at Easter. TFLookin everyone |

Doctors, human-rights advocates and members of the Jewish and Muslim communities have joined politicians for a circumcision debate in the Danish parliament.
It took place a day after the publication of a poll showing that 74 per cent of Danes support a ban on non-medical male circumcision.
There were strong reactions from both Jewish and Muslim communities in Denmark after the Danish government decided to ban ritual slaughter.
Agriculture and Food Minister Dan Jørgensen signed a regulation forbidding slaughter that is not preceded by stunning, which means it will be impossible to carry out kosher and halal slaughter.
The Danish government has banned shechita, saying "animal rights come before religion".
Denmark's Agriculture and Food Minister Dan Jørgensen yesterday signed a regulation preventing Danish slaughterhouses from applying for an exemption to pre-stunning, which effectively bans any religious slaughter in the country.
A ship used as a floating bar and restaurant in Norfolk helped rescue Danish Jews in the Holocaust, it has been revealed.
The Albatros was Europe's last functioning cargo sailing ship until 2008, when it made its final commercial voyage.
At early-morning prayers on the eve of Rosh Hashanah in 1943, the acting Danish Chief Rabbi Dr Marcus Melchior made a shock announcement.
The Nazis occupying the country were planning to deport the entire Jewish population to concentration camps.
In contrast to life across the sound in Malmö — where the mayor once famously stated, "We accept neither antisemitism nor Zionism", and the Jewish community centre was bombed last September — Copenhagen's Jews have traditionally felt few threats. "A Jew in Denmark can live a life without problems or fear of being a Jew," says Chief Rabbi Bent Lexner.

What do you think of the
Vans Mt. Edition Winter Shoe - Men's
? Share a...
I love Vans, even though they are not made in the US anymore, but what is these days.
I want to love these shoes. I used them last season for bi-deck snowskating here in the Tahoe Basin.
At first they were great, a pair a smart wools and the shoes, that was it. After, a full day of riding they became water-logged. You don't really notice the weight, but you do feel the wetness and chill. Within 3 weeks, the wrapping started to peel back and was collecting bits of snow and ice.
I stuck it out for the rest of the season, but switched to my gore-tex running shoes for slushy spring conditions, which completely waterproof, but shitty because I prefer the flat sole skater shoe feel.
As for the grip, it proved to hold up well. The reverse waffle is great on the neoprene type grip tape I use on my snowskate.
I'm giving them 3 stars because I can give Vans any less. But I would not recommend these to anyone.
the best shoes i have ever try you should buy them you will not be sad to spend the money on them
i hope u r right.
kyle kalifornia
great shoe!
theese are the best shoes I have ever used for snowskating I used to just waterproof a old pair of vans but this wasn't the best the felt right but would still get wet I just used theese all day and my socks not even damp thats after trudging through2 feet of snow kickass shoes plus they look sweet not like a typical big clunky snowskate shoe dammm vans did a good job on this one cheers from the ,V.T
