This series was based on the Steve Moncuse comic book "Fish Police."
Six episodes were produced, but the series floundered after only three were broadcast by CBS.
On the night of January 25, 1997, all six episodes (dubbed in German)- including the three not broadcast in the United States- were aired in sequence by RTL, a Luxembourg TV station with a large German audience. Sat1, a German satellite channel, is also said to have aired the entire series in 1999 in its children's programming block.
In "The Simpsons Halloween Special III," the name of this series, along with those of "Capitol Critters" and "Family Dog" (two other unsuccessful animated imitations of "The Simpsons"), appeared on gravestones in the pet cemetery.

I'm tiling my tub wall and the faucet wall is out of plumb and so the tiles may not meet properly and look terrible. I have cement board on top of greenboard and don't want to tear it all down to plumb and line the wall. My solution is to float the wall.
I'm moderately skilled but no professional by any means. I have been given all sorts of advice. Not sure which to take so I have tried to float it with light Joint compound and it is now closer to an 1/8th inch away from plumb and looks much better. I used that because a tile guy told me to do so as he said "tile doesn't care what it sticks to". Before I continue to tile I need some professional advice to guide me. Question is 1- Should I sand the last coat smooth and primer with bulls eye 123 and commence to tiling. 2- re-float it with morter, if so what kind exactly. 3- Is there a better option I haven't considered. I DO NOT want to tear it all out and plumb it properly. Thank you in advance. |

Well, it will either be tear it out now, or tear it out after you've got water damage all behind it and have maybe damaged the studs and subfloor. |
You don't want to hear this, but take it down to the studs, correct anything that is out of plumb and put the board back up. |
- Posted by hollysprings (My Page) on Tue, Sep 25, 12 at 9:05
What a FUBAR. Drywall compound and greenboard do not belong anywhere near a wet environment, even if you've thrown in some cement board into the mix because you "heard" that was you were supposed to do. It's flat out wrong, plain and simple. It WILL turn to mush and mold, even if you slap some tile on top. Tile may not care about which surface it's installed on, but WATER sure does! Tile is NOT a waterproof surface, even if you seal the grout. Water gets behind it, and you have to design the whole installation as a water management system. It all needs to come out so that you can construct a properly waterproofed shower from the studs out. Halfassing a project is always the longer and harder way than doing it right from the beginning. |

We were awakened around 4am this morning, by the ringing doorbell. I went to answer with my XD45 and light. Checked the peep hole and could see it was a deputy. I asked thru the door what was the problem. He said he our suv had been in a wreck and was abandoned and could I step outside. I told him to hold on and I put the XD on the small halltree table by the door.
I opened the door and told him not to be alarmed that there was a handgun on the table behind me and pointed it out to him. He commented he wouldn't answer the door at this hour unarmed either.
He went on to tell me that our blazer was rolled and abandoned on the hwy. 6 about a mile down the road. He asked if anyone in our house had been driving it and I told him no. By this time everyone (sons 21 & 17 & wife) came to see what was going on. We told him the suv had to have been stolen, since all our other vehicles were there, and was last seen in the driveway about midnight when my oldest boy had come in from work.
We followed him to the scene and waited for the wreckers to arrive. Apparently someone had seen it roll and then saw 2 young males exit the suv and run off. It looked bad in the dark and didn't look any better this morning when we went to sign the insurance release.
It wasn't the prettiest blazer around, but we are the original owners and for a '96, it only had 70,000 miles on it. It ran like a top and my wife simply loved that blazer. I've tried several times to get her something newer but she always said no. Terrible thing is, I can't replace it with anything as reliable for what it's worth.
Here's some pics:

Growing up in Buffalo, NY, I'm used to snow storms. What i'm not used to is ice storms. Whenever I come across the aftermath of an ice storm, I am fascinated by it's beauty.
The way the ice covers each branch is incredible. It's like it's trying to preserve it until spring hits. Or the way it wraps itself around berries on a tree, almost taunting birds and squirrels wanting to eat it.
But it's not all beautiful things encapsulated in ice. Downed power lines, frozen water pipes, and car accidents are also results of the ice storm.
But I think there's still room to enjoy the beauty of the ice covered objects. While most might look at ice storms as annoying and devastating, I know i'm not the only one out there taking photos of it's beauty.

Very good food, BYOB squash ravioli great, need to return there soon, best in town, you need. To try this one.
My husband and I had a great meal at Avalon Rose recently! It was a Sunday night at the end of September so it wasn't crowded though we hear it is on a Saturday night especially in the busy summer season. Our server Lauren was very attentive and friendly and gave us superb service. The food was wonderful - I... More
Went to Avalon Rose over Labor Day with a large party of ten adults. Servers, Angel and Lauren, were both attentive and pleasant. I rate them as way above average. Everyone was extremely happy with the food. Recommend the tuna tatar app, claw chowder, stuffed mushrooms... I had the rack of lamb and it was honestly the best I've had... More
The hostess seemed to have just woken up when we arrived. Our waitress was nice but everyone seemed on edge. I tried the award winning chowder, save some money and grab a bowl at wawa before you go. The food wad edible but nothing that could not be reproduced at any dinner. They atmosphere was creepy, bad music and outdated... More
Can't say enough good things about the food at this restaurant. There last night with a party of eight. Everyone raved about their orders. The stuffed mushrooms are over the top good (had them last week there also). This week I had that famous clam chowder; that could have seriously been the whole meal and I would have been happy.... More
Our dinner was the best I've ever had in Avalon. The food, both the taste and presentation, was perfect. From our starter salad to the Malt Ball dessert, the food was simply delectable! The waitstaff were attentive and friendly. Will certainly be coming back soon!
Enjoyed a delicious meal off season and again in July. Began with the award winning chowder - how could you not - it was delicious, filled with jumbo lump crab in just the perfect base, not too thick and not too thin. The blackened scallop appetizer was so flavorful and nice exterior crispness. Shared entrees of salmon and tuna and... More
Avalon Rose is a must visit gem. The restaurant has a cozy decor with wrap around bench seating for larger parties. The service was impeccable and the owner was very friendly with the guests. However, the highest grades go for the food. From the award winning clam chowder, to the scallop appetizer, to the steaks or fresh seafood special, this... More
Our table of 7 was less than thrilled with Avalon Rose. First of all, it's a somewhat stuffy environment (think hotel restaurant). When we called ahead and asked if it was appropriate for toddlers they assured us it was. It wasn't. Our party quickly shrunk from 11 to 7. The food was inconsistent. The scallops were great, but the swordfish... More

COIMBATORE: The strike by nurses of the PSG Hospital here continued for the 12th day on Wednesday even as representatives of the agitating nurses neld discussions with the labour commissioner, labour secretary and labour minister in Chennai.
Labour minister S T Chellapandian directed joint labour commissioner Marimuthu to reach Coimbatore on Thursday to hold talks with the hospital management and the nurses to work out a compromise formula.
The hospital management chose to keep away from the negotiations in Chennai. Talking to TOI over phone, representatives of the nurses welcomed the decision to send Marimuthu to Coimbatore and hoped he could help resolve the problem. If the negotiations fail, the strike will continue, they said.
A nine-member delegation of the Kovai PSG Hospital Nurses Welfare Union and the Tamil Nadu Medical Workers Federation, in Chennai for the last two days, also met health minister Dr V S Vijay and sought early solution to the vexed issue, involving the future of more than 450 nurses.
CPI leader and Valparai MLA M Arumugam and TNMWF president Dr G R Raveendranath accompanied the nurses in the talks. When contacted, Armugam said the hospital's adamant stand defeated the negotiations in Chennai. Meanwhile, hospital authorities said they were not part of the negotiations in Chennai and that no discussion would be possible if the strike continued.
Addressing reporters in Chennai, Raveendranath accused the management of targeting the striking nurses.
"The management was supposed to meet the minister along with us the other day and made us wait for more than four hours, but never turned up. The women who live alone in the hostel are suffering as supply of water and power has been cut off. They are forced to live on one meal a day,'' he said.
Kovai PSG Hospital Nurses Welfare Union general secretary A Nirosha said that the hospital management "was issuing advertisements in the media that our strike is unjustified which is not true."
Among the demands, Nirosha said, was that the minimum monthly salary be increased to Rs 15,000 for all staff nurses, an annual increment of Rs 1,000, deletion of clauses relating to payment of three months of salary at the time of resignation, removal of contract system of employment, return of the original certificates and introduction of shift system.
Hospital medical director Vimal Kumar Govindan said they would not participate in any negotiation involving trade union leaders. "Trade unions are hell-bent on politicizing the issue. Arumugam and AITUC state secretary G Jayaram are behind the strike which is politically motivated," he charged.
"Salary hike would be implemented in our hospital during the end of April every year. Strike work that paralyzes normal functioning of the hospital would not be tolerated at any cost. The process of appointing fresh nurses is also going on to help the hospital to recover from the existing crisis,'' he said.

POSTED: Wednesday, October 10, 2012 - 4:16pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, October 10, 2012 - 8:04pm
Another huge auto recall has been announced.
This time, it involves 10 different Toyota models.
7.4 million vehicles worldwide are affected, two and a half million in the US alone.
It's the largest US recall since Ford Explorers were landing on their roofs back in 1996.
The list of vehicles involves popular models like the Camry, Tundra, Yaris, Highlanders, and a couple of Scion models.
The problem involved the improper installation of an electric window switch, that can later become sticky.
The danger comes when an owner or a mechanic tries to lubricate it.
"We have a condition of the switch where it's notchy or sticky as we call it," says Toyota spokesman Brian Lyons. "The switch feels like it's a little sticky, and what we've found in our investigation is that this lubricant is being sprayed into the switches. What that does is it causes the grease that was originally in the switch by the supplier, to become carbonized."
Let me translate…that means it can melt and smoke.
There haven't been any fires from the overheating, but it comes at a bad time for the company that has had a great year after recovering from the Camry and Tsunami issues a couple of years ago.
Again, this is not a life threatening situation, just an annoying one.
The letter to owners should be coming shortly.

The policy of the Obama administration is to employ regulatory strangulation to drive up the price of energy. This must be exposed and opposed for what it is: a policy of forced economic contraction. Items to be identified as part of this policy include:
Efforts to impede the development of oil resources by impeding exploration, discouraging drilling, or holding up the building of infrastructure required for transport. The U.S. is the world's leading oil importer; our adversaries are the world's leading exporters. Any policy that restricts our oil production and thereby protects the ability of the Islamist-led OPEC cartel to rig high oil prices hurts the U.S. and helps our adversaries.
Efforts to impede the development of natural gas by creating regulatory obstacles to fracking and other technologies.
Efforts to constrict the nuclear industry. Prior to 1971, the average time from groundbreaking to commencement of operation for a nuclear plant was four years. For the most recently completed plants, it is 15 years. This fatal fourfold increase has been imposed by the EPA and the National Environmental Protection Act. Under this law, nuclear-power projects have been subjected to constant delays caused both by government bureaucrats who capriciously change engineering requirements during the middle of construction and by repeated legal harassment by organizations whose openly stated objective is to wreck the nuclear industry by driving up its costs. In addition, capital costs have been multiplied fourfold by endless additional requirements imposed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission — all without rational engineering justification. Furthermore, as a result of NRC interference, it has become nearly impossible for the nuclear industry to make improvements, even obvious ones that might serve to reduce its costs. The Obama administration has further assisted this campaign by intervening to block the establishment of a permanent nuclear-waste repository in Nevada, a project on which the government had already spent billions of dollars. In doing so, it acted not only against the nuclear industry but against the public safety, since clearly, from a safety point of view, it is far preferable to store spent nuclear waste under a mountain in the middle of the Nevada desert than in plantside cooling ponds near major metropolitan areas.
Efforts to kill coal-fired power generation. Nuclear power accounts for 20 percent of American electricity, while coal produces 40 percent. Obama's EPA recently set forth new regulations that will, at a minimum, vastly increase the price of coal-generated power, and that will most likely, as is their clear intent, wipe the industry out altogether. This will destroy hundreds of billions of dollars of private property and impose trillions of dollars of highly regressive, economy-destroying costs on the American public. The Romney campaign seriously mishandled this matter by discussing the president's war on coal as if it were a niche issue that was of concern primarily to coal miners. Nothing could be further from the truth. By driving up the cost of electricity, Obama's policy will make America less competitive across the board, causing the loss of millions of jobs in every sector of the economy.
Beyond opposing the destructive efforts of the Obama administration to constrict our energy production, the GOP needs to take the lead in forcing open the transportation-fuel market to non-petroleum resources. In particular, this means methanol, a very clean-burning liquid fuel that can be cheaply made from coal or natural gas — both resources that the U.S. possesses in abundance. Methanol is currently selling for $1.30 per gallon, without any subsidy. Nearly all cars sold in America for the past five years have flex-fuel capabilities that can be enabled by a properly skilled mechanic at little expense, and that would allow them to be driven with equal facility on gasoline, methanol, ethanol, or any mixture of the three, thereby opening the fuel market to free-market competition that would drive prices down across the board. Unfortunately, the EPA currently bans the commercial marketing of such conversions, as well as the sale of motor-vehicle methanol fuel in concentrations above 5.4 percent. These artificial regulatory obstacles to making full use of our own fuel resources are causing immense economic harm to America and need to be removed.
3. Defeat the war on carbon. This is closely related to the energy issue, but it has a broader aspect as well. President Obama has declared that a central goal of his second term will be to reduce humanity's use of carbon. Yet as can be seen in figure 2, below, which graphs the advance in human well-being over the past 200 years (as measured by average global per capita GDP, in inflation-adjusted 2010 dollars), a sizable portion of the world's population has managed an almost miraculous escape from poverty over the past two centuries.
Figure 2. Global GDP per capita vs. total human carbon use, 1800–2010 (in 2010 dollars)
As the graph shows, this has been driven largely by carbon use. But with the average human being still surviving on less than $9,000 per year, it is clear that we still have a long way to go. If the bulk of the human race is to have the opportunity for a decent life, it is clear that the world needs to use a lot more carbon. The president and his party, however, say they want to stop this march forward. In fact, they want to turn the clock back to the 1990 levels specified by the Kyoto treaty, which correspond to an average global income of $5,000 per year. This is a brutally reactionary position, and needs to be exposed as such.

" | There aren't many guys who have come on like he has. There are some scenarios where he could be picked ahead of Leftwich. And I don't think anybody would have imagined that six months ago." | |
—An NFL talent evaluator |
"Kyle, I'm telling you, has the gunslinger mentality," Weatherspoon said. "He doesn't give a rat's ass who you match him with. Bring 'em on, he doesn't care. So he fed off that. He went out there every day and tried to beat them."
To increase resistance, Boller trained in sand. In water. He trained with elastic tubing tied to his waist to hold him back. Anything he put in his mouth had to be either already on his diet or pre-approved. This went on for 10 weeks. And little by little, Boller shaved the athletic disparity between him and everybody else. "I'd tell the guys 'That's a quarterback that just ran faster than you in the shuttle -- you know that, right? You know you're getting clowned by a quarterback?'" Weatherspoon said. "And boy would everybody get pissed and work even harder." And in the end, Boller's 3.99 shuttle time was faster than anyone else he trained with. Yet there are still plenty of detractors, Mel Kiper Jr. among them (Kiper's top five overrated prospects ). They question why Boller didn't win in college (he was 14-26 as a starter), why his career completion percentage is under 50-percent and why people suddenly think he's worth a Top 10 pick in the draft. But talk to Boller and get a first-hand sense for that unwavering confidence and deep-seeded passion and it's hard to walk away. It's the reason the Ravens, who own the 10th pick in the draft, have flown Boller to Baltimore on a couple occasions for more analysis. Head coach Brian Billick saw Boller's competitiveness first-hand, when he concluded a recent workout by putting a wastebasket 45 yards down field along the sideline. The challenge was for Boller to try and hit the can. Boller did, but never put the ball in the can (few ever do in this common Ravens drill). But an hour later, after Billick briefly stepped out of a meeting with Boller for a quick television interview, the quarterback found his way back to the practice field, lined up the garbage can and tried again. By himself. And this time, he dropped two balls in the can. "It's just the type of person I am. I'll compete at anything," Boller said. "If it's golf, if it's football, whatever. I will try to win that match. I have to win."Wayne Drehs is a staff writer at ESPN.com. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com

is anyone else having this problem or just me?
They have a warning that updating bids is not working as it should. That's been up for days.
I'm still convinced they hired all the ex-Sprinks programmers - it's like deja vue all over again.
I checked the "manage bids" panel and they were right but my overnight report came in with the very old bids (which were edited and approved a few weeks ago).
I checked the current bids (overture bidtool) and yes the old(higher bids) were there - totally different from that shown on the "manage bids" panel.
So how to change them? Have just emailed them and am waiting...
The reports from Feb. 22 & 23 are inaccurate.
Boy, it's frustrating. We just reactivated an account 3 days ago and we've already gone through the payment without being able to tell which terms the clicks are coming from. There are partial results but not complete.

Gwinnett Daily Post
NORCROSS - A Gwinnett County fire official said Wednesday that arson is to blame for an early morning fire that destroyed a home on the 2600 block of Bailey Drive.
The official also believes those responsible for igniting the blaze are the same culprits who tried to burn the home down on Tuesday when the residence was robbed of nearly $950 worth of electronics. The home's occupants were out of town when the burglary and fire took place and no injuries were reported. "At this time fire investigators believe both fires are related and that the same individual or individuals are responsible for setting the fires to hide an apparent burglary," Gwinnett County Fire and Emergency Services spokesman Capt. Tommy Rutledge said. "Fire investigators were at the same address yesterday (Tuesday) and were called to the scene the first time by police officers, who found signs of an intentionally set fire while investigating a burglary complaint." The turn of events began Tuesday morning around 9 a.m. when a family member watching the home arrived to find the back door of the residence open. According to a police report, officers discovered the floor just inside the rear door was burned and also found material on the floor that had been burned as well. Rutledge said that fire never took and only a fire investigator was dispatched to the scene. Rutledge said firefighters returned to the scene at about 1 a.m. Wednesday after receiving a call from a neighbor. Upon arrival, they found the split-level wood frame house well involved in fire with a partial roof collapse. By the time firefighters got the fire under control at 1:40 a.m., the home had been destroyed and the exterior wall siding of a neighboring home had melted. Rutledge said additional information about the case is not being released because it's an ongoing investigation. He asked anyone with information about the incident to call the Gwinnett Fire Arson and Explosives Section at 678-518-4890. Georgia Arson Control offers a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the arson.More like this story

Jeff thanks again this was very easy and smooth. I am not sure how this happened as it seemed I checked every bag 4 times. But I woke up to the RYE in my trunk! I feel this is my fault so I will deliver the third to wherever they need to go. Defenestrate and Skarude... PM me and I will drop off tonight or tomorrow. Obviously I counted it as 2-row last night, so I need the MO/ or 2 row I dont care back and we will all be straight I believe. Sorry Guys!!!
ahh the mystery is solved.. We figured that happened.. no worries man
Hah I thought everyone had double checked everyone. Oh well. Again Sorry!
Ha that is some funny ****! Any how I will send the bucket of MO back to Jersey with Seth tonight and you can figure out when to make the swap with him.
Now I get to test my skills figuring out which bucket has the MO. Anyone got some tips for picking it out? I should have labeled the buckets last night!
Taste did it!
Glad we found the bag finally! Seth, are you really in Maple Shade? I'm in MS also. Right by 73/Woodlawn.
Yeah man, I am in Ryan's Run East..

It took a while for his stomach--and his prejudice against American foods--to change. But he wound up embracing the variety these new dishes gave his diet. "I can enjoy any food that is edible," he says. "I do, however, maintain one very important policy: When you eat, enjoy what you are eating and say thank you."
And so I'm giving thanks for Gaku's new restaurant, Domo. The country-style Japanese food he dishes out here is easy to enjoy: It's fresh, it's clean-tasting, and it's full of healthy ingredients cooked in the healthy Japanese way. And if it involves a few items you've never seen before, just imagine what Gaku--who comes from a country that uses little or no cheese, tomatoes or bread--must have thought the first time he saw a pizza.
Turning us on to out-of-the-ordinary ingredients has been one of Gaku's chief aims since he opened the first Domo, at Colfax and Logan, nearly a decade ago. (And then there's his campaign to educate diners that rubbing chopsticks together is rude, as are a bunch of other offensive things Americans do, which Gaku details on this Domo's table tents.) Although his original restaurant received a lot of attention and accolades, after six years Gaku closed it; he realized he'd been neglecting his first baby, the aikido dojo he'd run since moving to Denver in the late Seventies.
But last year he moved the dojo, along with the entire Nippon Kan Cultural Center that he operates, to a warehouse space on Osage Street large enough to house the dojo, a restaurant, a Japanese garden, a Japanese folk-art museum, classrooms and probably ten other things we didn't see, since there were a lot of "Please Do Not Enter" signs all over the place.
On our first visit, though, after we placed our order, Gaku enthusiastically encouraged us to visit the museum while the food was cooking, which we did. The museum is a sort of cross between a collection of stuff from the Meiji period through 1945 and a life-sized dollhouse depicting daily life in today's Japan. The walls are hung with cool knives and really neat wooden bowls, and wooden shoes line the entranceway. The nearby dojo was so immaculate, its cleanliness seemed to have a noise, and the Japanese garden, although suffering from forty-degree temperatures and small patches of snow, was indeed the relaxing Zen realm it was intended to be.
But those spaces had nothing on the dining room. The tabletops are enormous squares and rectangles of flagstone, each one capable of crushing a man if the tree trunks holding it up decided to take a break. The chairs are tree trunks, too, covered with gingham and pillows; the lights are shielded by shades made of branches and Japanese-newspaper papier-mache; and the walls are lined with Japanese dishes, cartoons, crafts and half of a twenty-foot tree, complete with a broken branch that juts out into the dining room. You just don't see this kind of place around Denver too often.
Nor do you encounter yuba or hijiki very frequently. These unusual ingredients--yuba is the film that forms on soybean milk when it's being made into tofu, and hijiki is a variety of brown algae--were key components in several salads that appeared on our ozens, or trays, as sides for our entrees. We were delighted to find tea-soaked yuba mixed with black fungus mushrooms, as well as shredded carrots and daikon in vinegar, kelp salad, and brown rice with barley accompanying our order of gyoza nabe ($8.25). The gyoza is one of Domo's nabemono offerings (seaweeds and garden vegetables cooked with meats or tofu in individual pots), which in this case also contained soft gyoza, the popular chicken dumplings. The same sides appeared with the ebi toji ($8.95), a tojimono: a Japanese variation on an omelette, with onions, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, seaweed, carrots and our choice of shrimp, all steamed in an egg custard. Both dishes tasted like curatives, healthful and preservative-free, the perfect light and filling lunch.
On a return visit for another lunch (the menu is the same at dinner), our group was larger and included two pregnant women craving healthy, crunchy food. Gaku didn't disappoint. Although the menu at night is the same as at lunch, this time the sides we'd enjoyed before were joined by a kelp salad augmented with green soybeans and a cold noodle salad with scallions and carrots. For our entrees, we proceeded to eat our way through Domo's simple menu. Although the curries on the roster didn't become popular in Japan until after World War Two, some of the dishes have much older histories. The kenchin jiru teishoku ($7.95), for example, was named for a Zen monk who lived 500 years ago and was thought to have created this dish of scrambled tofu with daikon, carrots, yam cake, burdock root, shiitakes and bamboo shoots steeped in a concentrated sesame-flavored miso broth.

MF Global CFO Learned of Shortfall in Customer Funds During Firm's Collapse |
By: David Dayen Wednesday March 28, 2012 12:10 pm |
At a House Financial Services Committee hearing today, former MF Global CFO Christine Serwinski will testify that customer funds were used to cover proprietary bets. This comes on the heels of a treasurer at the company alleging that MF Global CEO Jon Corzine ordered $200 million to be moved from customer accounts to cover a payment to JPMorgan Chase. And they still haven't found the money.

It was only a matter of time before Goldman Sachs would start to smear their former employee, Greg Smith, who published his resignation letter in a celebrated op-ed in the New York Times. At first they merely denied the change in culture that Smith stressed, one from nurturing a relationship with their clients to field-stripping their clients for as much money as they could get. But now they're bringing out the big guns.
Bair Recommends Scrapping the Volcker Rule |
By: David Dayen Saturday December 10, 2011 5:00 pm |
If you needed to appeal to one authority on banking regulation, you could do worse than to consult Sheila Bair, the former chairwoman of the FDIC. And now she's advocating scrapping the Volcker rule and starting over. She comes at this by looking at the spectacle of MF Global – a brokerage house that would not be covered under the Volcker rule – and asking whether they would be permitted to trade depositor funds on their own account if they were a bank. The answer is far less clear-cut than it should be – and that's the problem with how the Volcker rule emerged from the sausage grinder of the regulatory apparatus.
Corzine on MF Global Depositor Funds: "I simply do not know where the money is" |
By: David Dayen Thursday December 8, 2011 7:01 am |
Former Senator Jon Corzine faces a House Agriculture Committee panel today, where he will testify that he doesn't know "where the money is" from customer accounts that was used by his former company, MF Global, to trade on the company account.
Joe Weisenthal points us in the direction of Corzine's testimony, which he will give without pleading the 5th Amendment, despite still being liable for criminal charges in the MF Global case.
Volcker Rule on Path to Be Gutted to Point of Irrelevance |
By: David Dayen Thursday September 22, 2011 2:30 pm |
In retrospect, the banks had a pretty sound strategy with Dodd-Frank: fight it during the legislative process, but not too hard, allowing lawmakers to think they've accomplished something. Then, during implementation, bend the regulatory apparatus to your will, gutting the law before having to follow it. That has been extremely successful, especially because Dodd-Frank wasn't really a law so much as a promise to write a law later.
The latest victim of the finance lobby's efforts on Dodd-Frank is the Volcker rule.
Basically, the banks successfully got the regulators to define "hedging" so broadly that virtually any proprietary trade could be seen as a hedge.
This Week in FinReg Implementation |
By: David Dayen Thursday August 12, 2010 4:40 pm |
It's very important to keep on top of the implementation of the Dodd-Frank financial reform bill, because Congress basically outsourced the writing of the bill to the regulators. There are 67 studies and 200 rules that regulators will have to conduct, enact and implement. And so it's worth looking into their progress, which has already begun.
Last Chance for Lobbyists as FinReg Conference Concludes |
By: David Dayen Monday June 21, 2010 6:50 am |
This will be a jam-packed week for the Wall Street reform conference committee, with a final draft expected to go to both chambers of Congress by Friday. And many of the more important details remain up in the air. In particular, the consequential, hard-wired reforms designed to reduce risk and even the size of risky markets still have to clear the final hurdles.

Years ago, I had an employer that actually forbade us from discussing our personal beliefs/situations with patients or their visitors. At the time, I believed it was hopelessly archaic. Now I see the wisdom, and often tell people who pester me with personal questions that my employer forbids such discussions.
Thank you for all of the responses, everyone. Hopefully this can be a little social interaction toolbox for someone down the line. Anyone have any other suggestions? -

Me: "Well...it would be a HIPAA violation to discuss that."
When you think it best to avoid providing an answer, blame HIPAA.
Never forget your lifelong right to remain silent. It has served me immeasurably, and it has become a bit of a mantra always on repeat in my head. I don't lie about myself to patients...but I don't necessarily answer completely or elaborate either. Often times, I just pass on answering at all.
