continued Walking briskly nearby through a tent of antiques was Ryan Volpe of Schenectady. He was holding a case containing four projection lenses for a slide projector. Earlier, he found a rare Nikon S, the famed firm's first 35mm camera to be imported into the US during the American occupation of Japan. He said the rare model, which he bought for $25, might sell for up to $1,800 on E-Bay.
Upstreet, Marcketta Carpenter of Kinderhook browsed through 1950s collectibles along with her daughter Alisa of Yukon, Oklahoma. While Alisa was gathering old Coca-Cola collectibles,Carpenter said she was looking for antique fishing equipment and vintage kitchen tools and signs. Carpenter has attended the Warrensburg sale for 20-plus years, she said.
"There are all kinds of things here either I can't afford or I can't get home," she said. Accompanying them was family friend Lisa Pritchard of Glens Falls who found antique children's Golden Books, for 50 cents each.
Josh Persons of Warrensburg walked down Elm St. lugging a wall shelf resembling half a canoe. He said he bought it nearby from a private sale.
"We're having a good time," he said. "Everybody's willing to come down on their prices."
Late afternoon Saturday, Warrensburg Fire Chief Justin Hull poured coins that firefighters collected selling breakfast and lunch – including homemade broccoli soup and chili -- to shoppers. They also parked 300 cars in the field behind their firehall, charging a bargain rate of $5 for automobiles, or $25 for recreational vehicles. Their large lot filled up by noon on Saturday. Also, as a service to the public, they were letting anyone use their bathrooms – considered preferable to the plastic Porta-Jon booths located through town for the event.
Next to Hull was Fire Company President Kevin Geraghty, who jotted down receipt totals next to a stack of greenbacks – $20 bills, $10, $5, and $1 bills – several feet high.

20% of All 18-year Olds Omitted -- Data Entry Failure for Last-Minute Registration Forms to Blame
There is still time to correct these problems by 2012. This story is not just about Shelby County, Tennessee, where I believe the elections commission is competently addressing these problems for 2012. Last-minute dumps of new voter registration forms was a national problem in 2008, and across America voters reported that when they showed up to vote, their name was missing from the list.
The 2008 presidential election brought millions of new voters to the polls, with enthusiasm especially high among youth and minority voters. Yet in Shelby County (the home of the great city of Memphis), over 15,000 voters, disproportionately young or Black voters, were omitted from the list of valid voters at the time of early voting; by Election Day, the names finally made it to the list.

My daughter is 6 weeks old, and barely sleeps throughout the day. So what should I be doing with her all day? She won't let me put her down and I feel guilty just watching TV with her. But how do you play with a 6 week old?
Do you play with your baby?
Riley is 7 weeks old and we play games bascially I sing songs to him like ABC' song and patty cake and read books to him. I also will make faces at him trying to get him to smile or laugh. We also will dance around the house.Just let your inner child out when it comes to playing with baby.
I do things like patty cake and peek-a-boo. Sing silly songs. Do bicycle moments with his legs. Dance around the house with him. I also talk to him a lot. I ask him what he wants to wear. I pretend the little motions he makes with his arms is pointing to an outfit. When I watch tv shows I fill him in on the background information...not that he knows what is going on or even cares lol
ETA Gabe is 7 weeks
M + T = DS(4) #2 Born July 2014
Ari is six weeks as well. We sing songs, read stories, walk/dance around the house. If he is in his swing of bouncer I talk to him and tell him what I am doing. When we watch tv I tell him what is going on and ask him what he thinks. I take his hand in mine and we touch his nose "Ari's nose" then my nose "mommy's nose" etc. Just little things. When he spits up and we have to change him I say - you could just tell me if you want a different outfit. We read the mail together. When I change his diaper we discuss the character on the front and I make faces to see if he will copy me.
I "play" with my baby. I occasionally read or actually play with a toy (he loves stuff that make neat sounds and also flashing lights). Sometimes I put him in his bouncer and use his hand to bat at the toys overhead (he loves this and tries to do it himself!). I also talk to him, imitate his noises, and encourage him to talk back. I also hold him upright so he can try to walk (this is probably his favorite activity). Oh, we also do tummy time, sing and play to "Clap your tiny hands" and "This little piggy..." We have smiling contests to see who will give the biggest smiles and we stick our tongue out at each other.

I thought this was helpful as I had the same question as you.
my daughter is 7 weeks old and we sing to her, make faces, stick out our tongues, play with her feet, talk to her, imitate her sounds..
we mostly just sing and smile and talk to her because she is one happy baby-she smiles so big at EVERYTHING. she's even started her little laugh. :)

The big question, who is he going to fight? Brett Rogers? then who.
I hope Strikeforce isn't getting in over their heads with Fedor.
After a week of intense negotiations and speculation, the hottest topic of discussion in the professional fight world has come to a head as the world's number one heavyweight and most sought after mixed martial arts (MMA) champion Fedor "The Last Emperor" Emelianenko has signed a historic, multi-fight agreement that will see him headline mega-events co-promoted by world championship promotions STRIKEFORCE and M-1 Global.
Emelianenko, known globally as Fedor, will make his premium television debut this Fall when his first fight under the new agreement airs live on SHOWTIME®. Up until now, Emelianenko's live fights have aired exclusively on pay-per-view in the United States.
"I am looking forward to going back to work and fighting at the highest level," said the 33-year-old Emelianenko. During his nine year professional fight career, which included a four and a half year stay with the world's former top MMA promotion, the now defunct PRIDE Fighting Championship, the Russian native has faced and defeated all comers.
In his last effort, the 6-foot, 235-pound Emelianenko decimated the number two ranked heavyweight at the time Andrei "The Pitbull" Arlovski with a single punch in the first round (3:14) of the main event of Affliction: "Day of Reckoning" at Anaheim, California's Honda Center on January 24.
"STRIKEFORCE is a top fight promotion that houses some of the greatest fighters in the world," continued Emelianenko. "I am prepared to fight any of them."
"We are extremely excited to have the opportunity to work with M-1 Global and Fedor," said STRIKEFORCE Founder and CEO Scott Coker, a martial arts fight promoter of over 25 years. "Fedor has been the reigning king of MMA's heavyweight division for quite some time now so being able to work with M-1 and Fedor will substantially increase the level of competition amongst the athletes in this weight class."
"With the addition of Fedor and STRIKEFORCE's new relationship with M-1 Global, SHOWTIME is now the home of the best pound-for-pound male and female fighters in the world," said Ken Hershman, Senior VP and General Manager of SHOWTIME Sports®. "The Aug. 15 Carano-Cyborg matchup on SHOWTIME will clearly determine the best female mixed martial artist on the planet. Then, come this Fall, our subscribers again will witness history when the universally recognized best male fighter-Fedor Emelianenko-joins the already long list of world-class athletes on the STRIKEFORCE roster, and for the first time ever plies his skills live on SHOWTIME."
Hershman continued: "We are better positioned now than ever before to deliver on our promise to televise the top fighters in mixed martial arts today."
"I am very happy and excited about the upcoming collaboration with Strikeforce," said Vadim Finkelchtein, President of M-1 Global. "We are very pleased that we found a reliable partner and I feel that Strikeforce and M-1 can support each other on many things. This will create big opportunities for both parties to test their fighters against worthy opponents."
Though his official professional record is 30-1, Emelianenko is considered undefeated. The only blemish on his record is a December 22, 2000 fight that was stopped after 17 seconds and declared a TKO in favor of his opponent, Tsuyoshi Kohsaka, due to a cut Emelianenko sustained in the opening seconds of the matchup in Osaka, Japan.
Amongst those on Emelianenko's list of impressive conquests are former PRIDE Heavyweight Champions Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Mark "The Hammer" Coleman, and Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic as well as former UFC Heavyweight Champions Kevin "The Monster" Randleman and Tim Sylvia, whom Emelianenko submitted with a rear naked choke only 36 seconds into their main event showdown at Affliction: "Banned" on July 19, 2008.
Despite his extensive experience, Emelianenko's debut under the new STRIKEFORCE-M-1 venture will, interestingly enough, mark his first start in a cage. To date, all of his bouts have taken place in a ring.
After co-promoting two events live on SHOWTIME in 2007 and 2008, STRIKEFORCE in March 2009 signed a multi-year agreement to stage live MMA events on the premium cable television network.
The big question, who is he going to fight? Brett Rogers? then who.
I hope Strikeforce isn't getting in over their heads with Fedor.
They have got to set him up with Overeem. Isn't he the current Heavyweight Champ for Strikeforce?
This is so gay what a pussy
Fedor has lost pretty much all credibility in my opinion until he fights top 10 talent and you know the UFC currently has 6 of the 10 top ranked HWGHTS so who does he fight? FUcking Nobodies again….Fedor is a pussy, i though a man of his caliber and skill would want to fight the best of the best which he even states in this message which is total BS, how can you fight the best in the world when you will not fight for the UFC which holds at least 6 of the top 10 HWGHTS in the world today….he is dodging real competition and for that i can not respect him nor should the rest of the MMA world as any fight he wins for now on is tainted and just plain silly, i hope some no name beats him….
Whatever life goes on and the UFC will still make millions and billions more than Fedor and M-1 will ever see in their lifetimes.
Stupid Fedor….
Who fucking cares…..Fedor's done. He had his run. He should be dropping out of the p4p category with lack of good fights. Fedor will always have a question mark above his head.
This is probably Fedor's way of getting tune up fights in a Cage atmosphere as This will mark his first start in a cage. To date, all of his bouts have taken place in a ring.
I am sure that Fedor didnt want to have to fight the UFC talent as in Lesnar in his first time in a cage…..I dont know maybe the UFC has not seen the last of Fedor as maybe these are indeed tune up fights before he sign with the UFC to get used to a cage enviroment.
Naw, what am i saying Fedor is a warrior and would fight anyone at any location in any situation…thats right folks he is just a straight out PUSSY!!!
Overeem would be probably be the first oponent. Then maybe Werdum followed by Rogers. Then they will continue to throw pointlessly hyped matches like Arlovski vs Fedor II, Ninja Rua, all this before Diaz agrees to fight him at a catch weight. Seriously, the only thing Strikeforce can hope is that Fedor will attract more talent to their orgranization and as a business decision it might make better sense for Fedor. However, as a fighter, it's a shitty move.
i dont think fedor and finkelstein understand the amount of money they would've made in the ufc. they would've been gettin huge cuts in pay per view sales…now they can just kiss all that good bye. lesnar v fedor would've been the biggest fight in mma history and fedor would've made at 12 mil for that 1 fight win or lose.
now he has just lost a ton of money, respect, and credibility. i hope fans boo him when he comes out to fight his first fight. people are gunna be talkin more shit about him now than they do about brock.
After the new T.U.F. series there will be a slew of new Heavyweights and it will morph into an exciting weight class of young hungry fighters along with some old lions. The UFC will market the hell out of the new and improved HW Division and I'm certain Fedor will be watching along with everyone else. Strikeforce is not a bad venue, but it really cannot compare to the UFC on any level, and as more and more of the top names wind up there and the weaker fighters that get the boot wind up in Strikeforce, it will take its toll on Fedor. He yearns for glory and even though he is currently considered number one, those rankings will sag as he fights lesser competition. I think, even with this news there is a solid chance that Fedor will eventually wind up with the UFC, if not for the money then certainly for the glory.
I called it, I called it, called it!!!! I told you he was gonna ride finkelf@#k's pussy to where ever it led him!
…."I am looking forward to going back to work and fighting at the highest level"….Are you SERIOUS?! Really Fedork?…. THEY'RE the highest level?! Did Finkelstink sell you that, too?….W-O-W!. And I love Strikeforce's comment…"SHOWTIME is now the home of the best pound-for-pound male and female fighters in the world," Yeah, ONE male and the ONLY females!….Next to go down….? R.I.P. Strike-farce. Enjoy!
I disagree. I know Fedor has defeated many great fighters in his career, but this just makes no sense…unless he is scared of Lesnar. Then it makes a lot of sense.
Of course…Fedor is avoiding Lesnar!
Fedor is the biggest pussy ever to fight in MMA. Fedor lovers can even admit that fedor is a pussy now
I hope someone KO's Fedor's ass in StrikeForce…
Give me one reason why the UFC should ever co promote with another organization especially after the UFC are the ones who sacrificed and have made MMA what it is today…funny thing is if it were not for the UFC many of you out there wouldnt even know who FEDOR was…simple fact end of story.
No other organization deserves to be in the same class as the UFC, you think the UFC is going to co promote with no bodies so to help recongnize their names…and ruin what the UFC has worked so hard to accomplish.. Hell no, co promotion is out of the question and the UFC doesnt need Fedor as bad as Fedor needs the UFC..
Well said, Tim…
I've been a strong supporter of Fedor, and whether he fights in the UFC doesn't change my outlook that he is the best HW in the world. Whether he has the drive seems to be another question. I'm pretty boggled at this decision. I can't imagine that Strikeforce offered more money, so it's obviously NOT about money. Either he is afraid, which I don't think he is, or he really has no say about what he does. There has been that talk about the Russian Mafia being involved and such. So who knows. I am very disappointed in this, but will still watch him decimate the maybe 3 good HW's Strikeforce has.
who gives a shit! strikeforce is the number 2 organization in MMA right now.
better than Dream NO?
this was clear and not Fedor's first choice Strikeforce opted to Co-promote something the UFC was not willing to do.
cant blame Fedor's camp as the best deal for them did come along. This is not about fighting it is about money.
By the way Strikeforce does pay larger purses to their star fighters or big names.
Remember Kimbo made 500K for getting tko'd by Seth.
Let Fedor fight Overeem, Rodgers, Werdum and even AA again WHO GIVES A FUCK
Strikeforce it going to take a huge hit by allowing a co promotion with M1, but at the same time their pockets are deep. What they should realize is that by looking like a bitch who ducked the best competition, I don't think Fedor is even going to be as big of a draw. I sure as hell don't want to see him fight Rogers or Overeem.
True, better Strikeforce than DREAM. I really don't want to see Hong Man Choi / Fedor II.
I'm the only one who is glad that the UFC hasn't signed Fedor it seems.
Dana White is an Ass the fact that you lot believe he offers Fedor anywhere near good money is stupid (look at what Brock made in UFC 100)
your all nuthugging the UFC…. who knows if Overeem is not better than Lesnar? no one…
I was a Fedor fan and believed he was the best…..but WTF. Seems like a pussy move to me and his promotor is a tool.
Overeem? What are you drunk? Watch his Pride Fights.
Lesnar may be short on everything except for Wrestling, but I have never seen speed, and power like that in MMA. He played with Mir. Only Fedors match against Hong Man Choi makes me believe he could overcome such an encounter, and Choi has none of Lesnars speed or Wrestling ability.
What will be interesting is watching Fedors ranking tumble now that he's ducknig the Major Leauges…
Timmie… Pride was a long time ago… people improve… look at Mir getting Armbarred by Mir first time.
Lesnar has Wrestling… nothing more, hes just a big coleman with Less Experience and more to submit.
Lesnar getting getting submitted** sorry tired
Overeem is good and so is the production and fight of Strikeforce. But come on noone on here can say they want to see Fedor fight Overeem or Rogers over Lesnar or Couture. Strikeforce can produce great fights in every other division other than HW.
Fedor is a pussy. I'm so happy he has slapped all of you loyal pole riders in the face. Take a good look at your coward hero.
I'm sorry but right now… UFC heavyweight is shit….
sorry but i watch MMA for Martial Arts… not for someone lying on top of someone.
that is the way UFC is at the moment and its boring for me.
Timmie, Overeem improved a lot. He is a monster. Really he is only fight for Fedotr in Strikeforce because Brett is unproven but it is not like the UFC has a stable of HW fighters that Fedor has to go through to prove how good he is. The only 2 that I would like to see him fight is Lesnar and Carwin. Cain would be interesting but he is still a little unexpereinced. Fedor would kill every other UFC HW – Randy, Kongo, Crocop, etc. With the exception of Lesnar, Overeem, and Carwin, he cleared out the division. Why sell out for 5 fights to the UFC when they don not have 5 fighters that could challenge him. Like GSP and Silva, the division is pretty much cleaned out. So for anyone saying that he is ducking the UFC fighters, there is not much there for him to duck. It really boils down to business and ego. As much shit as Dana has talked about him in the past, I would not want to work for that asshole neither.
I don't agree with everything that the other orgs have done: the Kimbo fraud, marketing Gina when she can't make weight once so she is fighting women 20 pounds lighter than her, letting Canseco and no skill freaks like Choi fight….but I would rather pay for and watch my monthly UFC event and still have the other shows to fill in the rest of the month. In a perfect world, all the best fighters would fight each other, but this is not a perfect a world and people have choices. If fedor would rather help build up his M1 promotion than be bought by the UFC, it is his choice.
OK, thats a good point.
says all i really need to say on such a topic, and as one of the best MMA writers and knowledgeable people in MMA that he is… I find myself agreeing with every word Jake Rossen says.
Strikeforce's CEO Coker : FEDOR UNLIKELY TO GET IMMEDIATE TITLE SHOT.
Most likely he will face either Brett Rogers or Fabricio Werdum in his first bout with Strikeforce.
He'll probably lose to Overeem anyway. Rogers and Wierdum are safer fights for him to keep his so called invincible status.
Strikeforce's CEO Coker : FEDOR UNLIKELY TO GET IMMEDIATE TITLE SHOT.
Most likely he will face either Brett Rogers or Fabricio Werdum in his first bout with Strikeforce.
Also, Jake Shields will fight for the Strikeforce interim title in October.
Fabricio Werdum will face Mike Pyle at Strikeforce on August 15.

More Thoughts on Linking OWS and Israel
How big should the tent be, and where should it be pitched?
I strongly encourage everyone to go read Occupy Judaism activist Daniel Sieradski's interview with Mondoweiss' Adam Horowitz; they both do a great job getting quickly to the core of their disagreement, which seems to me to be over whether it is worth jeopardizing the economic message of Occupy Wall Street in favor of pro-Palestinian activism. (I have to think that Horowitz would ultimately admit that this is what he is advocating: as Sieradski tells him, "Knowing how long you yourself have been working on these issues, I am surprised that you would even entertain the idea that OWS won't be significantly hurt by being seen as anti-Israel.") Readers of this blog (and, now, readers of Mondoweiss) know where I stand on this, but I certainly am sympathetic to Horowitz' complaint, "Do you understand why many Palestinian activists viewed the tweet's deletion [the tweet expressed solidarity with last week's flotilla] as a sign they are not welcomed in the OWS movement?" The big tent certainly should cut both ways.
Yet again I have trouble seeing how the protest two nights ago of a Birthright event served the broader purposes of OWS, or even the narrower ones of the protesters. It's notable that the Zuccotti Park occupation is explicitly intended not to disrupt the neighborhood: it's an occupation not in the sense of exerting control over others but in terms of staking a claim in a place where they felt they had none. Shouting down a speaker at a prearranged event, by contrast, feels like just the sort of thing that people who don't understand what free speech is label "free speech."
None of which makes the latest right-wing propaganda about OWS' fundamental anti-Semitic-ness okay. Particularly amusing is this collection of accusations on Pajamas Media, which includes some anti-Semitic asshole responding to a Jewish man's obvious provocations, and, pricelessly, an anti-Israel/anti-Semitic protester (he compares the Israelis' actions in the territories to the Nazis') getting into an argument with … a pro-Israel protester. Pajamas Media doesn't point that the existence of both types of protesters suggests it might be wrong to paint the entire movement with the brush of just one of them.

Sables (Martes zibellina) are long-bodied, short-legged, bushy-tailed weasel relatives (family Mustelidae) found in China, Japan (Hokkaido), Mongolia, North Korea, and Russia. They live in deciduous and coniferous forests (especially mature forests with large trees and a dense canopy), often in mountain regions and near streams. They feed mainly on small mammals (rodents, pikas, hares), but also eat birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, fruits, honey, nuts, and berries. They are active both day and night. Although mainly terrestrial, they climb trees well. Sables are solitary outside the breeding season.
Sables are common throughout most of their distribution, although they are now considered rare in China (where they were once common). They are hunted for their fur--among the most valuable furs in Europe and Asia)--but are also raised on farms to help sustain the fur trade, with over 25,000 harvested annually.

I want to make my clients, when they make the first purchase on your site, they can make a purchase in several predefined steps. Online stores I sell.
The idea I want to do with Exchange, for example:
Step 1: Choose your Template ($ 100)
Step 2: Choose your Domain ($ 12 / year) (subscription)
Step 3: Choose one of these wholesalers ($ 50)
Step 4: CHECKOUT (PayPal or Stripe)
In one page Or With redirects after Add to Cart, is it possible to do with Exchange & all extensions and plugins??
And another question, if the above is not possible, is there any way to make the link a button to insert a table of prices and leading directly to the checkout?
And the last... All of your plugins and extensions are translatable?
Thank You
Posted 21 November 2013 - 03:02 PM
Unfortunately this isn't an option in Exchange at this time. I'll definitely add it as a feature request on our Exchange Roadmap, however, I won't be able to give a timeline for if/when it would be implemented.
I'm not sure what you mean by "make the link a button." Which link are you referring to?
You shouldn't have any issues with translations. If you run into any problems, please let us know.

Hi Elise, what I mean is if there is any way to get the URL to do the same function as the "Add to cart" or "Buy now"
And another question I have is if I can arrange the catalog in another pages (not only in the "store" page), for example, in WooCommerce can make a page for each category with a description, but Exchange does not show the products as a grid when you open a category page. Thank you, and congratulations for your excellent and fast work. I hope that soon you may have done this so I can buy the developer pack to start my business

The federal fraud case against Denny Hecker appears to be coming to an end.
The last defendant is expected to plead guilty today to a reduced charge, averting a trial that had been scheduled to start this month and paving the way for Hecker and three others to be sentenced in a scheme to defraud lenders of millions of dollars and to conceal assets in the former auto mogul's bankruptcy case.
Steven J. Leach, former president of Hecker's automotive leasing company, agreed to plead guilty to a conspiracy charge that carries a lesser maximum penalty than one he faced earlier. A hearing was scheduled for 11 a.m. today in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis.
"The government was willing to sit down (to negotiations), and to their credit, they were willing to say Steve Leach was a minor participant — this was Denny Hecker's deal," Leach's attorney, Robert Sicoli, said after the plea bargain with prosecutors was announced Thursday.
"My client has accepted responsibility for what he did. He followed Denny Hecker's orders when Denny told him what to do."
Sicoli said Leach, 55, of Burnsville, felt so bad about what was happening at Hecker's company that he quit his job in early December 2007.
"He couldn't go along with it any further," Sicoli said. "He just wishes he had never worked for Denny Hecker.
The conspiracy charge carries a maximum penalty of five years, but Sicoli said prosecutors will recommend between three and four years and that he can argue for something less than that.
Hecker, who once ran a network of auto dealerships and a leasing company, pleaded guilty last month to conspiracy and bankruptcy fraud as part of a deal with prosecutors.
Another Hecker employee, James Gustafson, got a plea deal this week on charges he lied to investigators about the fraud scheme and helped Hecker hide an asset from creditors. In addition, Hecker's girlfriend, Christi Rowan, has pleaded guilty to bank fraud and bankruptcy fraud in connection with the case.
Hecker, Leach and Gustafson admitted they schemed to defraud millions of dollars from lenders, including Chrysler Financial, by altering purchase agreements on vehicles bought by Hecker's leasing company, Rosedale Leasing, from various auto manufacturers in 2007 and 2008. The alterations made it appear the vehicles were more valuable than they were, causing lenders to lose money when the cars were sold after the leasing period expired.
On Monday, Gustafson, who had been the fleet manager for Rosedale Leasing, told a judge that Leach had instructed him to misrepresent the status of the vehicles in the company's records to make them appear more valuable.
Gustafson and Rowan also admitted to helping Hecker hide assets after Hecker filed for personal bankruptcy in June 2009, owing $767 million largely the result of personal guarantees on business loans.
Leach's plea deal could mark the end of the criminal investigation, according to legal experts, although the bankruptcy trustee will continue efforts to liquidate assets to pay creditors.
"I think it will be an end of the investigation from the perspective of the prosecutor," said Joseph Daly, a law professor at Hamline University School of Law and a former Hennepin County prosecutor. "But there are still questions about 'Where's the money?' "
Daly said the bankruptcy trustee is obligated to give prosecutors any additional evidence of criminal activity he might find. The U.S. attorney's office would need to weigh not only the costs and benefits of pursuing additional charges, but whether justice has been served.
Daly said Hecker, 58, and the others might not be sentenced for a couple months because a lengthy pre-sentence investigation process must be completed first. Prosecutors are recommending 10 years in prison for Hecker, four to 10 months for Gustafson and up to six months for Rowan.
However, U.S. District Judge Joan Ericksen will ultimately decide the sentences.
Ted Sampsell-Jones, a law professor at William Mitchell College of Law and an expert on white-collar crime, said it is not unusual that all of the defendants made plea deals.
"Across the criminal justice system as a whole something like 95 percent of people reach plea deals — probably a little less for white-collar crimes," he said. "Plea bargains are the norm, and trials are the exception."
The Hecker case, which has made headlines for more than a year, was a big fraud case for Minnesota, but it paled in comparison to that of convicted Ponzi schemer Tom Petters, Daly said. The Minneapolis businessman was convicted last year on 20 fraud counts related to a scheme that cost more than 474 victims $2.5 billion, not including interest. He was sentenced to 50 years in federal prison. He is appealing.
"Because Hecker was such a public figure — he put his own picture on buses and he was constantly in the news with his advertisements — this case became big because of him," Daly said.
Although Michigan-based lender Chrysler Financial was the biggest victim in the Hecker case, Daly said the effect trickles down to everybody when bilked lenders pass along higher interest rates to cover those losses.
"It's ultimately bad for our society," he said, "and it perpetuates this kind of 'I can do anything. ... I don't have to follow the law like everybody else has to. I'm Denny Hecker' type of attitude."

Facebook is for sharing, but how would you feel if your Facebook account was a test subject in an online study?
Some users are unsettled after the company manipulated nearly 700,000 of users feeds' as part of a psychological experiment.
Data scientists have published a paper describing an experiment they conducted back in January 2012, involving the Facebook News Feeds of nearly 689,003 random Facebook users. Specifically, the researchers messed with the amount of positive and negative posts that showed up in these users' feeds for a week. Then they kept track of the users' reactions.
So what did they find out?
Emotional states can be transferred to others via emotional contagion, leading people to experience the same emotions without their awareness.
That means that when you see your friend post a negative status update, there's a chance you'll start to feel more sad yourself. And the opposite happens with happy posts.
Naturally, the release of this study caused some negative reactions from a lot of Facebook users who thought their privacy had been violated. But Facebook says it does fall within the company's privacy policy (you know, the one hardly anyone actually reads).
But while it is in the policy now, Forbes points out that the clause allowing for user information to be used in research wasn't actually included until May 2012 - four months after the study concluded.
So maybe we're allowed to be a little bit mad. Luckily, in the study, the authors say no user data containing personal information was actually seen by the researchers.
But the experiment's lead scientist, Adam Kramer, still felt inclined to post an apology on his own Facebook page on Sunday, giving an explanation for the study.
Our goal was never to upset anyone. I can understand why some people have concerns about it, and my coauthors and I are very sorry for the way the paper described the research and any anxiety it caused. said Kramer. In hindsight, the research benefits of the paper may not have justified all of this anxiety.
Before you get too angry with Facebook, their privacy policy isn t very different from the others most of us sign off on when we get a new app or sign up for a new social media site. In fact, a 2012 report estimated it would take the average American Internet user up to 36 working days to read through the privacy policies of every site he or she visits each year.
If you are feeling a lot of anxiety about this whole debacle, don't go posting about it on Facebook - you don't want to inspire your friends to feel anxious too, as the study said may happen.

My ankle has been bothering me and I've learned about the importance of recovery. If we continue to "push through" pain, our bodies cannot heal and we set ourselves further and further back. Now, I'm not using my pedometer to measure how far I can go, but rather how little additional stress I've put on my sore ankle. My step count isn't 10,000, but instead is showing me how low can I go. My ankle is getting better with this change to my goals, and that is what is important!
I love knowing that my pedometer tracks my mileage!
I lived with alot in my short life... but the only thing that keeps me going is love! so get one (or more) of the following:247...212...220
Tip: Ever get caught in rain/snow/sleet? Take a few small plastic sandwich bags when you go on your walk, hike, sporting event...great prevention for anyone of any age who might be at risk for a wet phone/pedometer from wet pockets!! Easier than rice! 148

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The FDIC Quarterly Banking Profile for the second quarter of 2012 shows that efforts to unwind toxic assets has shown slow but steady progress over the past 12 quarters. Even so, the exposures to toxic assets remain high by historical standards among the country's community banks and much deleveraging needs to be done to end the "Great Credit Crunch".
On Tuesday, I set the stage in my story, The Banking System's Slow, Stressful Recovery. Then Thursday morning, we posted 'Too Big to Fail' Money Center Banks Still Face Stress analyzing the continued exposures to mortgages on the books of banks, home equity loans, other real estate loans and notional amount of derivatives.
My third installment based on FDIC covers the stresses that community banks still face in 2012: nonfarm, nonresidential real estate loans, construction and development loans, with the sum of these called commercial real estate loans.
Overexposures to C&D and CRE Loans: There are 7,246 FDIC-Insured financial institutions in the banking system, down from 8,534 at the end of 2007, when the "Great Credit Crunch" began. The decline of FDIC-insured financial institutions thus totaled 1,288, down 15.1%, and "only" 454 were closed by the FDIC via their failure procedures. The remaining either dropped their banking licenses or merged with another institution.
FDIC Assets Where Community Banks Have Continued Stress: Nonfarm, nonresidential real estate loans are up $90.0 billion or 9.3% since 2007. This category of assets peaked at $1.091 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2009 as the real estate asset bubble continued to inflate. Since then this portion of CRE is down $33 billion.

In Flash Professional CS5 Essential Training, author Todd Perkins explains the fundamentals of Flash Professional CS5, the industry standard for creating animations and interactive applications for the web, desktop, and mobile devices. This course starts with the basics, such as using the drawing tools to create simple animations, and progresses to automating animation with tweens and adding interactivity with ActionScript. This course also covers how to add sound and video to projects, enhance realism with effects like easing, and publish a project to a variety of platforms. Exercise files are included.
Let's add sound to our application now. So I have a sound layer and I've actually imported the sound to the Library already. So all I have to do is select the first keyframe of the sound layer and click-and-drag the sound from the Library onto the Stage. Now select the first keyframe of the sound layer and head over to the Properties panel to adjust the syncing method. I'm going to choose Stream this time. The reason I want to choose Stream is because this syncs the sound perfectly with the Timeline. So when I stop the Timeline, the sound also stops, and when I play the Timeline, the sound plays.
This is going to be useful for when you have buttons for this application. So Stream for the option and that's it. Let's test the movie in the Flash Player and see what it sounds like. (Music playing) So now we have added sound to our application. Remember, all you have to do is select the frame where you want to drop the sound and then just click-and-drag it from the Library onto the Stage.

- You assume that the only thing holding back the widespread adoption of electric cars is a lack of grid capacity, and not the high price and low performance of those vehicles. There's no evidence to support this, anywhere.
- Even if that were true, there's no reason to believe that the addition of a couple of inefficient wind farms to one state's grid would even match the power needs of the suddenly omnipresent electric cars.
- Even if we needed less oil, that wouldn't necessarily translate into less foreign oil. If foreign nations sell cheaper than domestic producers, we'll just buy less domestic oil.

But George Bachrach, president of the Environmental League of Massachusetts, hailed the decision, saying it was 'a critical step toward ending our reliance on foreign oil and achieving energy independence.'
Setting aside the fallacy that we can ever be "Energy dependent" or stop consuming "foreign oil" if we want to remain a first world country, unless those windmills are going to be attached to cars, it's not going to have any impact at all on oil consumption. Only about 2.5% of US electricity generation is via oil, and almost none of that is from MA. If you want to argue that having taxpayer subsidize inefficient electricity production is a good thing, fine, we can have that argument, but don't pretend it has anything to do with decreasing consumption of oil.

Comment: Re:Anonymous registration is necessary (Score 1) 97
The "if they need anonymity, they're doing something bad" argument is a poor fallacy that's been exposed multiple times. It's the online version of "Well, if you're not doing anything wrong, why do you need privacy?" Why should someone who wants to write a blog about shady dealings at their work be forced to put themselves at risk? Or even just something that their bosses wouldn't like ? There's no intrinsic need for identity to be associated with the registration of a domain name.
Yes, a court order can (in some cases) strip off the anonymity protections, but not all. For example, InvisiHosting doesn't require that a customer give us any personal information, we allow untraceable payments, and we delete logs daily, so even if a court order comes down, there's no guarantee that someone will be exposed. Still, that same argument applies to warrants to investigate a private residence, and I don't think you're arguing that everyone should just expose all their private behavior to the world, just because cops could go in their house if they're suspected of a crime. If someone's behavior doesn't even meet the laughable criteria for the cops to get a warrant, why should their identity be exposed to the world?
As far as hacks go, that's not necessarily true. If a registrar gets hacked, that's a much huger deal than the stripping of anonymity from domains. If someone's hosting account gets hacked, there's no guarantee that there will be any personal info there, that's on the user. If the server they're hosted on gets hacked, same thing. Most hosts don't keep customer records on their hosting boxes.
NetSol looks closely at registrant data.
Comment: Anonymous registration is necessary (Score 2, Interesting) 97
- ICANN regulations require the listing of accurate data in a WHOIS record, with a threat of revocation if inaccurate data is not corrected. That means that anyone who has a domain name, who doesn't have a company to register it under, has to have their real name, address, email and phone number listed in the WHOIS record. While most registrars are pretty lax in enforcing this, it still leaves normal, good people faced with having to put information that they wouldn't necessarily want public. Anonymous registration makes this unnecessary.
- Many people have very very good reasons for not wanting to be associated with a website. Whistleblowers, pranksters, bloggers, etc, all could face serious legal or social repercussions if they data they make public is attached back to them. Many of my non-American customers would be arrested or sued for exercising nothing more than the freedom of speech that the rest of us are accustomed to.
- If this idea really takes hold, and ANONWHOIS lists are actually used to spam score email, real spammers will just find a registrar that doesn't enforce ICANN policy too strictly (Joker, GoDaddy, etc...), throw up fake data, and the list would be left penalizing honest people who simply don't want their name attached to their domain.

|Personality type as a predictor of interaction between student teachers and cooperating teachers
|Kitchel, Tracy Jonathan, 1976-
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|Pairing of student teachers with cooperating teachers has not been studied intently in agricultural education. With student teaching being an important aspect to teacher preparation, it should be a research priority. The purpose of the study was to determine if personality type could predict aspects of interaction between cooperating teachers of agricultural education in two Midwestern states and their student teachers. Student teachers and cooperating teachers in agricultural education for the 2003-2004 school year, from the University of Missouri-Columbia and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, participated in the study.The study was descriptive-correlational, quantitative research. To measure personality type, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator was used. To measure interaction aspects, the Mentoring Relationship Questionnaire (Greiman, 2003) was used. Findings suggest that, according to both cooperating teachers and student teachers, that student teachers were receiving psychosocial assistance from cooperating teachers. In addition, according to both student teachers and cooperating teachers, student teachers did not need much, nor did they receive much support related to roles and responsibilities of an agriculture teacher. Although the study found strength in relationships between overall perceived similarity and interaction satisfaction, personality type was found to have little influence on the variables.

TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (NYSE: AMTD) has released results for fiscal 2013. The Company gathered approximately $50 billion of net new client assets, maintaining its industry-leading, double-digit net new client asset growth rate for the 5th consecutive year.
The Company's results for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2013 include the following: (1)
- Net income of $675 million, or $1.22 per diluted share
- Record net new client assets of approximately $50 billion, an annualized growth rate of 10 percent
- Average client trades per day of approximately 374,000, an activity rate of 6.3 percent
- Record net revenues of $2.76 billion, 55 percent of which were asset-based
- Investment product fee revenue of $250 million, up 28 percent year-over-year
- Pre-tax income of $1.09 billion, or 39 percent of net revenues
- EBITDA (2) of $1.29 billion, or 47 percent of net revenues
- Record interest rate sensitive assets (3) of $96 billion, up 16 percent year-over-year
- Record client assets of approximately $556 billion, up 18 percent year-over-year
"TD Ameritrade had another strong year, as we maintained our industry-leading, double-digit growth in asset gathering," said Fred Tomczyk, president and chief executive officer. "In 2013 we delivered record net new client assets and interest rate sensitive assets and continued to build on our leadership in trading. Each of these accomplishments contributed to the highest net revenues we've earned in our history. As we go forward, we'll remain focused on growth and investing in the future. Our strategy is working, and our momentum is strong going into 2014."
"TD Ameritrade has once again shown that we can keep expenses in check, invest in the business, and grow. We have held expenses at the same level in each of the last three years, and yet we've continued to invest in the business and deliver record growth," said Bill Gerber, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "In 2013 we effectively returned 107 percent of earnings via cash dividends and debt repayments, and when you combine dividends and stock appreciation over the last year, our shareholders have received a total return of more than 75 percent. Moving forward we intend to continue building our long-term earnings power and return capital to further enhance shareholder value."

"We know that we don't have the skill set in our economy. There was just another report this past week about where America stands when it comes to the rest of the world in terms of educational skills. We have a lot of work to be done…(the unemployment rate is) not really dealing with a larger, big picture issue about the American economy." — Tom Brokaw discussing the drop of the unemployment rate on NBC's Meet The Press.
In talking about our overall economy and the growing inequality our nation faces, Brokaw hits on a key point which is that our political system is not dealing with the bigger picture of what's wrong. Politically speaking, our system is in utter ruin. Personally, I've taken a step back from politics because I don't think the solution to what ails us is political, but rather spiritual.
Left wing policies typically breed permissiveness and dependence, while right wing policies typically breed greed and selfishness. Both sides take their base for granted while breeding fear, anger, bitterness and hostility towards the other which just fuels our cultural chaos.
Further, political solutions only go so far and typically only deal with the symptoms and not the cause.
Republicans want policies like lower corporate taxes and empowerment zones to boast investment and job creation in poverty stricken areas like Detroit, while Democrats want policies like a higher minimum wage and universal Pre-K. All of which have pros, cons and unintended consequences. But none of which deal with the core problems of what we face, and that's a complete breakdown and failure of the American family.
Since the 1960s, the out of wedlock birth rates overall have roughly tripled to 40 percent of all American birthrates. That's an epidemic for all of America. But it's been said that when White America catches a cold, Black America catches pneumonia.
And with 73 percent of black children being brought up in homes without fathers, that is an epidemic that all of us need to go "all in" in trying to fix. Study after study after study indicates that children of any color without an actively engaged father are far more likely to drop out of high school (50 percent in inner-cities), be completely unprepared for the labor force, live in poverty and birth children out of wedlock.
The good news is that I believe we can break the cycle for many, and that's what God has called me to do in my ministry. I spend a lot of time in our schools and we need more of what I discussed in parts one and two of this series – freeing up while empowering coaches, educators and the community as mentors and role models – and less top down government, restrictive one size fits all education programs that rely too much on standardized testing.
In short, we need to teach the individual child's heart and not teach collectively to the standardized test.
Ultimately, I firmly believe that only the real and authentic love of Jesus Christ can transform our culture and save this nation from complete ruin. The progressives on the Left and the secularists on the Right don't comprehend this and the Christians on the Right mostly do a terrible job in showing this love and grace, because they themselves mostly don't understand it.
So in the next and last installment of this series, I'll discuss the church's role in empowering our young men of color.

From Barnes & Noble
After several seasons in the capital, game warden/crime fighter Joe Pickett is back on his ranch in Saddlestring, grateful to be home, reunited with his family and free to once again roam the Wyoming wilderness he loves so much. The one thorn in his recently reclaimed existence is his onerous mother-in-law Missy, a woman apparently totally bereft of redeeming qualities. When his tormentor is plucked up and charged quite plausibly with murdering her husband, Joe feels no compassion, but then his family convinces him to investigate the circumstances of what first appears to be a slam dunk case. When a second body turns up, Joe begins to suspect a set-up. A winning protagonist unencumbered by a dark past or excess emotional baggage.
