(CNNMoney.com) -- In 2002, a group of Babson College entrepreneurship students ran out of room on their whiteboard. They had spent hours brainstorming new business possibilities, and the sudden space crunch threatened to cramp their creativity.
Instead, it sparked a new idea: Why not make paint that turned walls into giant whiteboards? The ideas kept popping: you could paint chairs, doors, tabletops, playrooms, entire corporate offices. Any surface could be a canvas for inspiration. The company would be called IdeaPaint.
The risk: Finding the right formula was more than half the battle. For three years, former classmates Morgen Newman, John Goscha and Jeff Avallon sought help from specialty paint and chemical coating laboratories. Two labs claimed it was impossible. Whiteboards are made using high-intensity ovens. IdeaPaint needed something that could be applied with a roller in a single coat. That wasn't going to happen, the scientists said.
The young entrepreneurs refused to believe it. "Our joke was, if we could put a man on the moon, we can make dry-erase paint," says Newman, 25.
Then they found CAS-MI Laboratories in Ypsilanti, Mich., where the scientists were willing to give their plan a shot and even cover some of the development costs.
With the help of $1 million from family, friends and a few angel investors, the group spent the next four years fine-tuning their recipe.
Even after the formula was ready, the tiny startup faced big challenges. Manufacturers like Quartet, Acco (ABD), Ghent and GBC had for years ruled whiteboard market, worth $1 billion annually. Rust-Oleum, a century-old paint company, already had its own dry-erase paint on shelves at Target (TGT, Fortune 500) and online at Amazon.com (AMZN, Fortune 500). Unlike IdeaPaint, Rust-Oleum's product is geared to home users and must be applied in multiple coats.
The payoff: When the trio finally launched IdeaPaint in 2008 at an architectural trade show, they painted 3,000 square feet of the Chicago Merchandise Mart and hired muralists to draw on the walls and hand out information to passersby. It struck a chord. Blogs picked up the news and requests flooded in.
"A growing number of architects and painters view it as breakthrough technology," says Phil Maguire, senior category manager for Akzo Nobel, the largest paint and coating company in the world, which now distributes IdeaPaint. Maguire claims it's easier to apply and lasts longer than Rust-Oleum's product.
Bolstered by $9 million from investors, Cambridge, Mass.-based IdeaPaint is seeing double-digit revenue growth each month and has landed honors from BusinessWeek and the now-defunct magazine Metropolitan Home. The paint covers office walls at Comedy Central, the C.I.A., Harvard University and Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500). Reebok designers coat their foot mannequins with the paint so they can draw on them. A can of IdeaPaint PRO that covers 50 square feet sells for $199, or $4 per square foot.
"It has the potential to revolutionize the whole industry," says Marcus Wilson, a managing director with Cambridge-based Breakaway Ventures, which invested in the company. Wilson, 37, a former Reebok executive, has since stepped in to become IdeaPaint's chief marketing officer. Former Reebok U.S.A. president Bob Munroe is now IdeaPaint's CEO, and Paul Fireman, who was Reebok's CEO for three decades, is an advisor and investor.
Next up for the 17-employee startup: expanding to hospitals and schools, and selling the paint in retail stores this summer. Newman has been travelling the globe to line up distributors in Europe, India and Australia. His flights are complimentary: He recounted IdeaPaint's backstory in an essay for a British Airways contest and scored a year of free airfare.
Some 20,000 businesses now have IdeaPainted walls. It's not a hard sell, says Ben Fischman, CEO of Boston e-commerce firm Retail Convergence.
Fischman painted a couple of conference room walls after his friends at Breakaway Ventures introduced him to IdeaPaint two years ago. Eventually, he covered the entire office with it. His 225 employees now write on the walls every day.
"We're IdeaPaint junkies," Fischman says. "It's a no-brainer. You say, 'Duh, why didn't I think of this?'"

Palgrave Classics in EconomicsIn The Economics of Welfare, originally published in 1920, Pigou reconceptualized economics as a science of economic welfare, in the course of which he developed the first systematic theory of market failures. Employing Alfred Marshall's theoretical framework and the utilitarian logic of Henry Sidgwick, he argued that the Smithian 'system of natural liberty' can fail to maximise economic welfare

My only concern. Somthing wrong here. I trade for a food, and the negativity on this stock is beyond shortselling. A pos perhaps? This thing has no bottom support level.
Who is selling down here? This is all shorting. Selling down here indicates trailing sells WAY WAY to higher than should be. Set them 1% below current..
we hit support of 10/16 i don't think we go much higher for at least rest of this week. LYG might give us a boost tomorrow. or it might get us clobbered. who knows. problem with ire is there are no earnings for sometime to come. we rely on news which is not very often.
sorry this is not correct. 5.43 is support.

In the South Pacific, cultural boundaries between Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia are not precise, and there are few shared customs and practices between the racial groups of these areas. The culture of Tuvalu is very similar to that practised in Samoa and Tonga.
Traditionally, a system of chieftainship existed in Tuvalu. The chief of each clan maintained peace and harmony through positive values and practices handed down through generations, and everyone had duties and responsibilities. The chiefs achieved their position through merit. They were responsible for clan welfare and were custodians of the environment.
There is generally only one village on each island in Tuvalu. Often the village is divided in two 'sides' to promote a competitive spirit in village activities. Communities on all islands are very close knit and self-contained, and for this reason the village goals can only be reached by working through accepted traditional channels and by observing and respecting customary practices.
Land has never been bought or sold in Tuvalu; it can be exchanged or gifted, but not sold. Europeans introduced money and a commercial system to Tuvalu, leading to the saying: 'money is for palagi (Europeans) and land is for Tuvaluans'.

Second Season of E!'s #RICHKIDS OF BEVERLY HILLS to Premiere 8/3
Welcome back to the famed 90210, and to new fulltime resident EJ Johnson when he relocates to Los Angeles and joins his friends in the fabuluxe zip code overflowing with sunshine, designer fashions, and plenty of plastic -- both surgical and credit card. The second season kicks off with a trip to China for the opening of an elite department store owned by Dorothy's retail mogul father. Joining Dorothy on the trip are Morgan, Brendan, Jonny, and Roxy, all growing tired of Dorothy's endless monologues about her career, her style and being financially cut-off by her parents.
The drama and baggage aren't limited to Dorothy's couture luggage as her boyfriend Cooper is inexplicably absent from the crew's overseas adventures which might spell trouble in paradise. Its VIP treatment all the way with amazing sightseeing and having her #BFFs near, but Dorothy is still distracted by what appears to be a major bump in her relationship and a missed opportunity to show Cooper the Wang empire. Love can still be a battlefield, even when it's a multimillion dollar property in Beverly Hills and you're worth billions of dollars.
Catch all the antics of the crew when E!'s hit reality series #RichKids of Beverly Hills returns for season two on August 3 at 10pm ET/PT followed by a new episode at 10:30pm ET/PT. And don't miss an all-new episode of the hit series "Botched" airing Sunday, August 10 at its new time of 10:30pm ET/PT on E!, as a woman with uneven breasts seeks Terry's help; an anxious patient stays awake for her tummy tuck and Mega-boob star Lacey Wildd wants to upgrade her implants to Triple Q.

Join us at the Barnes & Noble in Har Mar Mall in Roseville at 7pm, Wednesday, October 10 for a fun evening. The Atheist Voices of Minnesota will be featured for an authors' event and we would love to see a room full of occupied seats!
Six of the book authors will read and/or discuss their essays and then be available to take questions from attendees. The featured authors are Norman Barrett Wiik, Stephanie Zvan, Robin Raianiemi, Tim Wick, Kori Hennessy, and August Berkshire. The host will be Eric Jayne. After the one hour (maybe an hour and a half) event some of us will gather at the Old Chicago restaurant CHIANTI GRILL for social time.
The event is currently being promoted inside the Har Mar Barnes & Noble store with posters and complimentary bookmarks. It's also featured on their website. Books will be available for purchase at the Barnes & Noble store.
This will be another great opportunity to promote Atheist Voices of Minnesota and the Minnesota Atheists organization. All net proceeds from the sale of Atheist Voices of Minnesota go directly to Minnesota Atheists. This charitable book is the result of a collaborative effort by nearly 50 atheists. It is available at amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and other booksellers, and directly through the Minnesota Atheists online store. It's also available for Kindle and Nook.
UPDATE: The post-event social time has been moved to CHIANTI GRILL which is kitty-corner from Har Mar Mall, and shares the same parking lot area. It's a very short walk from B & N to Chianti Grill. IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL if you indicate whether or not you plan on attending social (drink) time at Chianti Grill. Thank you.

Scandic To Go: Pop Up Hotel Accomodates You Wherever You Areby Beth Graddon-Hodgson

A genius solution ensures that a comfortable space is always available to you, no matter where you find yourself.
The Art Of The Share On Tsū & Other Social Networksby Ron Callari
The more often a quality piece of content is highlighted online, the more likely it will be shared via social networks. In tandem, the more times something is shared, the greater the likelihood that citizen journalism will help it morph into credit-worthy content. This cause and effect allows topical, enlightening and motivating posts, tweets, status updates to wend their way into a user's personal blog or local news site.
College Of Wizardry: An 'Authentic' Experience For Harry Potter Fansby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Ever since the original release of the Harry Potter books, people of all ages have been dreaming about having the opportunity to get a real wizard education. Bits and pieces of the Hogwart's experience have been offered in places like Disney World or King's Cross Station in London, England. But those attractions just aren't enough for true Potter devotees, but now they can fulfill their dreams.
2015 Prediction For Top Digital Job: 'Paid Social Specialist'by Ron Callari
Social media is experiencing a metamorphosis of sorts. There's a new trend being led by a number of new social networks that have shifted the paradigm of organic (non-paid) user-generated content to a paid monetization model. To address this new sphere of influence, it's my prediction that jobs will be created by companies and brands that want to benefit from these new networks, as they did previously with sites like Twitter and Facebook
YamChops: The Ironic Vegetarian Butcher Shopby Beth Graddon-Hodgson

LSU Football Team Fights Concussions Head On: Vector Mouthguard Could Help Save Athletes' Livesby Paul Fitzgerald
It's no secret that a staggering75 percent of football players in the United States have a chance of suffering a concussion, and now a Seattle-based tech startup company wants to tackle the issue of head injuries for good. To help reduce the risk of players getting concussions, i1 Biometrics just launched a new cutting-edge device called the Vector Mouthguard.
Mobile Gym: The Solution To Active New Year's Resolutionsby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
I know you're trying to make the most of the holiday season, and not think about what masochistic vows you'll make when 2015 arrives. But if you start thinking about them now and start planning ahead, all of those delicious fatty goodies you consume until them will taste even better. So think about the healthy changes you'll be making, and find ways to make them as convenient as possible. There's a cool new business that can start you off in the right direction.
'Facebook At Work,' Anti-Tsū, Anti-LinkedIn, Anti-Google+by Ron Callari
What's a network to do? When you've grown to over 1.3 billion users, one would think you could relax and rest on your laurels, comforted in the fact that no other social network could possibly match your kind of success. But such is not the case with Mark Zuckerberg and the world's largest social network.

Stephen Colbert, a practicing Catholic and sometimes CCD teacher, does a "liturgical dance" number to the hymn, "King of Glory." You're welcome.
There are some artists whose work leaves you walking away thinking, "How in the world did they do that?" The Yeasayer performance at the 9:30 Club in D.C. on Nov. 15 was one such performance.
The psychedelic electro pop group hailing from Brooklyn pumped out a wholesome set of favorites from its older releases as well as songs from its recent — and divisive — album Fragrant World, all to the backdrop of what looked like a chunk of the Epcot ball from Disney World.
But the elaborate — and frequently trippy — back drop and light show seamlessly augmented the synth-laden songs, morphed electric guitar, and catchy hooks. It was truly and audiovisual experience. Had their performance included some neon gummy worms or something, it would have engaged nearly every sense.
VATICAN CITY -- Their lives steeped in intrigue, treason and lust, and set against a backdrop of luscious Italian landscapes and Renaissance masterpieces, the Borgias are probably the most famous -- or infamous -- family in the long history of the papacy.
Now, a new Italian book wants to dispel, at least in part, the "black legend" surrounding a dynasty that bore two popes as well as cardinals, poets, and warriors.
Journalist and historian Mario Dal Bello drew on documents from the Vatican Secret Archive to write his new book, I Borgia: La leggenda nera, or The Borgias: The Black Legend.
For five centuries, the Borgias have attracted writers, painters and playwrights. They have been the subject of hundreds of movies and TV productions, most recently Showtime's popular series, The Borgias.
"It's easy to understand why: sex, blood, poison, power,"" Dal Bello said. "This is already fiction material."
In search of a story that will "make you believe in God?"
It's a heavy undertaking. Kind of like trying to adapt that story to film, as screenwriter David Magee and director Ang Lee did brilliantly in Life of Pi, which opens nationwide today.
The film, adapted from Yann Martel's moving book, takes on massive questions — who is God, how do we find God, and why do bad things happen to us — as we follow Pi, a zookeeper's son shipwrecked on a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger.
"I think we're humble filmmakers — I don't think we can answer why bad things happen to people," Magee told Sojourners Tuesday. "But I do think it puts into perspective the fact that within every ordeal there is a lesson.
"This is very much a story about storytelling," Magee added. "It's very much a story about how those different narratives help us get through. It can't promise to answer why we go through the things we do, but it can say what we take away from them."

Pound per hour
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pound per hour is a mass flow unit. It is abbreviated as PPH or more conventionally as lb/h. Fuel flow for engines is usually expressed using this unit,[citation needed] it is particularly useful when dealing with gases or liquids as volume flow varies more with temperature and pressure.
- 1 lb/h = 0.4535927 kg/h = 126.00 mg/s
Minimum fuel intake on a jumbojet can be as low as 150 lb/h when idling, however this is not enough to sustain flight.

'Plastic Bag Day' might teach lesson
There have been a lot of plastic bag bans put into effect over the last two years. What defines a "single-use plastic bag"? I ask, as I have encountered in Canada a 5-cent fee for getting a plastic bag, but I was not charged when I brought my own plastic bag. So, I ask if any of the plastic bag bans that exist in the U.S. prevent a customer from bringing in their own plastic bags for their own use?

Tebow, Broncos CAN beat the Patriots
Originally Published: December 15, 2011By Sarah Phillips | Special to Page 2
Either you love Tim Tebow, or Tim Tebow makes you crazy.
Regardless, even a screenwriter couldn't make up this stuff -- which is ironic since it seems to be the same script every week:
It begins in the days leading up to the game. Pundits near and far pick against the Broncos, assuming that Denver can't keep winning with a simplistic offense and late-game heroics. Recently, many of these experts add a God-fearing disclaimer, such as, "It is Tebow, so you never ...

The product is good for the value for sure, it was easy to install but it was not a perfect barrier, as I have a Queensland blue heeler and she is small and she managed to get underneath it, and the barrier was not fool proof , the extenders do not stay in place.

Let's just say it wasn't a snap to put together. However, it was easy enough. Keep in mind the price you are paying for this. Because, as they say, you pay for what you get. There is no way to lock the bars from sliding out horizontally. However, for the most part stays in place.

ROBERT HAROLD SIEGEL August 18, 1939 - December 20, 2012
Robert Harold Siegel, 73, poet and novelist, transitioned to eternal life on December 20, 2012. Born in Oak Park, Illinois, to Frederick William and Charlotte Lucille Chance Siegel, his immediate family circle includes his high school sweetheart and loving wife of 51 years, Ann Hill Siegel, his three daughters, Lenaye Marsten, Lucy Preston, and Christine Elder, his sister, Janet Siegel Rogers, and four beloved grandchildren: Julianna, Alexandria, Patrick, and Maximillian.
Robert graduated valedictorian of the class of 1957 from Arlington Heights High School in Illinois before attending Denison University for two years and receiving his BA in English from Wheaton College in 1961. A favorite professor and lifelong friend was Dr. Clyde Kilby, founder of Wheaton's Wade Center, housing manuscripts of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. Robert was awarded a Gilman Fellowship for Writing Seminars and attended Johns Hopkins University for his MA in Writing. He served as chairman of the English Department at Trinity College before earning his PhD in English Literature from Harvard University. During his years at Harvard, Robert studied under the American poet, Robert Lowell, and began placing his own poems in magazines. Since then, he has published in dozens of journals and anthologies, including the Atlantic Monthly, Image, the New York Quarterly, Poetry, the Chicago Tribune, Prairie Schooner, the Transatlantic Review, and others.
He continued his career teaching at Dartmouth as a professor of English literature while writing The Beasts & The Elders, his first book of poetry. The London Times Literary Supplement praised the "unpretentious versatility of Robert Siegel" and compared the wealth of his poetry with "returning to the mainland after a tour of the islands." While on sabbatical with his family in Cambridge, England, he was inspired to write his first work of fiction, the fantasy novel Alpha Centauri. On a fellowship at Yaddo Artist's Colony his second collection of poems, In a Pig's Eye, began to take shape. Robert continued his teaching and writing at Princeton, Wheaton, Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany, the University of London, and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee where he directed the graduate program in creative writing and retired as Professor Emeritus of English.
Robert authored ten books of poetry and fiction throughout his career. His works have garnered numerous awards, honors, and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, Illinois Council for the Arts, the Ingram Merrill Foundation, Friends of Literature, "Who's Who in America," Chicago Poetry, and the Bread Loaf Writer's Conference, among others. He was twice nominated for the Pushcart Prize for his poetry. In a recent interview, he stated "Most of us [writers] share a desire to call up things into words. This is the alchemy that fascinates me. A sensation, impression, or image will step out from its surroundings and demand my total attention. The thing itself will appear to rise up as words and send me fumbling for my notebook or keyboard."
Aside from his poetry, he is best known for his Whalesong trilogy that has been published in seven languages including German, Japanese, and Hebrew. Critics commended this trilogy of novels "... as combining into a powerful manifesto for environmental intervention." Robert believed that human beings must live consciously and harmoniously in the world as part of its whole. He stated "I want people to identify with the mystery and intelligence of the whale, the spirituality of the ocean, as well as have a sense of what it's like to be a marine animal facing oil spills."
Robert had a tremendous love of nature and a keen interest in land preservation. In 1989, his article in the Atlantic Monthly launched a successful nationwide grass roots movement among schoolchildren to preserve and protect Walden Pond, the cherished grounds of writer Henry David Thoreau, from being compromised by a large housing development. He was an avid supporter of maintaining undeveloped land by keeping open space within communities.
After retiring from the University of Wisconsin in 1992, he and his wife, Ann, a photographer, moved to southern Maine where he continued to write, lecture, and travel to participate in poetry readings at colleges and universities throughout the country. In addition, he spent time conducting writer's workshops with students of all ages. His advice to aspiring writers: "Trust the imagination. What is it like to be something else -- a tree, a toad in the grass, a cat, or a camel? And then read, read, read, and write every day. Don't worry about a message -- if you write the best sonnet or story you can, your deepest convictions will come out unconsciously in your work."
The Robert Siegel Collection, comprising of manuscripts, schoolwork, and extensive correspondence, will be housed at Wheaton College Special Collections in Wheaton, Illinois. All material is available to researchers.
When he was not writing, Robert's interests included reading, hiking, cross-country skiing, and traveling. He enjoyed listening to classical music, was a master at telling extemporaneous bedtime stories, and was always game for a round of chess. As reflected in many of his books, he had a great respect for animals and demonstrated kindness for even the smallest of creatures.
A memorial will be held on April 6th, 2013, at Trinity Anglican Church in Rochester, New Hampshire.
Those wishing to do so may make a contribution in Robert's memory to one of the following organizations that he supported significantly throughout his life: the ASPCA, American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (www.aspca.org/donate), PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (firstname.lastname@example.com), Farm Sanctuary (www.farmsanctuary.org), and Great Works Regional Land Trust (www.gwrlt.org).
Condolences and messages for the family may be expressed by visiting the website of McIntire-McCooey Funeral Home at mcintiremccooey.com

Summer Funding - Cornell
Summer Public Interest Fellowships (PIFs)
Every first and second year student who chooses qualifying unpaid public interest or government employment - very broadly defined - receives a PIF. More than 100 $1,000 PIF grants were awarded in summer 2014. The total grant for those students who qualified for federal work-study funding, which is the majority of students, was $4,000.
The application deadline for summer 2015 is Monday, March 2. You can review the 2015 Summer Grant FAQs for more information.
Public International PIFs
Students taking summer legal internships with overseas government agencies or non-profits are unable to utilize work-study funds. Five $2,400 Public International PIF grants are available each year. These grants are coupled with the PIF grants (described above), enabling our overseas interns access to full $4,000 summer stipends.

Your Evil Twin: Behind the Identity Theft Epidemicby Bob Sullivan
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Identity theft is the fastest-growing white-collar crime in America. It strikes ordinary citizens and celebrities alike. This crime of the twenty-first century is profitable, nearly unpreventable, and hardly ever prosecuted. Some estimates say that nearly ten million Americans each year become victimsand the crime shows no sign of letting up.
Your Evil Twin: Behind the Identity Theft Epidemic covers this exploding crime from every possible angle. Filled with real-world identity theft horror stories (from both the criminals and victims perspective) as well as practical advice that can help you protect yourself, this book examines the institutions, industries, and individuals that have allowed identity theft to spread, and probes the tepid solutions now being cobbled together by the industry and government to curb this crime.
Author and identity theft expert Bob Sullivan agrees that criminals should, without a doubt, be blamed for this crisis, but he also notes that so should those entrusted with our identities. Sullivan digs deep to reveal how institutions designed to protect our identities have let us down, while corporate Americain choosing profits over privacyhas shirked much of its responsibility for the problem.
Youll receive an up-close look at some of the most troubling issues associated with the identity theft epidemic, including:
But there are solutions to the identity theft problem and this book examines some of themfrom individual heroic efforts being made privately to public companies whose forward-looking projects may stem the epidemic.
Identity theft is much more than a paperwork headache for victims. The crime has been blamed for everything from divorce to suicide to murder. It threatens happy retirements as well as college student loans. In its very worst form, it can even land innocent people in jail. Your Evil Twin will show you why identity theft has become so common and help you prevent or prepare for the day someone tries to steal your good name.
"Your Evil Twin is an unsettling look into a dark corner of the Information Age. It will make you want to put a lock and key on your wallet. Then youll realize thats not enough."
Robert OHarrow Jr., staff writer, Washington Post
"This book will make you want to cancel your credit cardsimmediately! Sullivan weaves together compelling stories of fraudsters and their victims with thoughtful insights into how public and private systems routinely fail to protect our privacy."
Rachel Ross, technology reporter, Toronto Star
"Identity theft is one of those crimes people dont think about until they get hit, and then its too late. Bob Sullivan uses potent storytelling, goes easy on the technobaloney, and points readers toward vital precautions and prevention."
Beau Brendler, consumer investigative editor and former editorial director, ABC News.com
"The Internet is the best thing thats ever happened to con artists. They can rob you blind or steal your identity before you suspect anything is wrong. Bob Sullivan is always looking to expose new scamsto warn readers about them and how they can protect themselves. For years, his investigative reporting has led the way in this area. Bob doesnt try to sound like a tech writer. His writing is easy to read and simple to understand."
Herb Weisbaum, a Today show consumer specialist
"Perhaps no one in America is more intimately acquainted with the frightening face of the global identity-theft epidemic than Bob Sullivan. Years of conversations with the victims, the thieves, and their pursuers in law enforcement have given him an unrivalled view of a spiraling problemand an ability to tell a tale that is just as readable and fascinating as it is maddening and horrifying."
Emory Thomas, former Wall Street Journal reporter and editor, MSN Money
"Only an investigative reporter like Bob Sullivan could reveal the full depth of this creepy phenomenon. His book reads like an exciting detective story, but this surreal and frightening problem is bigger than most people realize. This book is going to open peoples eyes to a problem that has become even more dangerous given the rise in international terrorism. In short, this book is a wake-up calland a call to actionfor the leaders of government and business, especially the credit-card industry."
Jon Sorensen, New York State Consumer Protection Board
The crime of the twenty-first century doesn't discriminate: ID theft has hit ordinary citizens and celebrities alike, from Oprah Winfrey to Steven Spielberg, and costs the economy $50 billion a year. Your Evil Twin covers this exploding crime from every possible angle. It includes exclusive whodunit details from mastermind identity thieves who have pilfered money from half the members of the Forbes 400, as well as exclusive interviews with a myriad of criminals in the Internet's underground, such as Russian hackers who have extorted money from U.S. banks. The book also issues a scathing indictment of the credit granting industry, from credit card issuers to the secretive credit reporting agencies, who have misunderstood the crime from the start, have been slow to respond, and bear much of the responsibility for the epidemic. Finally, Bob Sullivan, author and identity theft expert, probes the tepid solutions now being cobbled together by the industry and government.
Bob Sullivan (Snohomish, WA), senior technology writer for MSNBC.com, is the nation's leading journalist covering identity fraud. He has written more than 100 articles on the subject since 1996, and is a regular contributor to MSNBC, CNBC, NBC Nightly News, the Today show, and various local NBC affiliates.

Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Mike Richards' power-play goal late in the second period lifted the Los Angeles Kings to a 2-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks.
Drew Doughty netted the other goal for the Kings, who hold a three-point lead over the San Jose Sharks for the fourth seed in the Western Conference.
"We had a really good first period and they got some momentum back in the second with a short-handed goal, and then it was a track meet in the third," Kings head coach Darryl Sutter said.
Jonathan Quick stopped 19-of-20 shots in the win.
Ryan Getzlaf registered the lone tally for the Ducks, who still lead Los Angeles by seven points atop the Pacific Division.
Viktor Fasth made 16 saves in defeat.
Anaheim, which was 5-of-11 against Los Angeles on the power play this season, had its first one of the game in the final three minutes, but the Kings killed off the man advantage.
"We had one opportunity on the power play at the end and we didn't take advantage of it. They took advantage of theirs," Getzlaf said.
Doughty's one-timed slap shot from the high point got the Kings on the board midway through the opening period, but Getzlaf tied the score early in the second.
While shorthanded, Getzlaf went after a loose puck at center ice and moved in alone on Quick, who stepped out and tried to poke check the puck away. But Getzlaf went around him and wristed the disc home into the empty net to knot the tilt.
Dustin Brown provided a screen in front of Fasth when Richards' slap shot from the top of the left circle with 57.2 ticks remaining in the second snuck underneath the crossbar to make it 2-1.
Quick made 11 saves in the third to seal the win.

Grant helps Idaho schools plug into online classes
"Instead of a one-size-fits-all lesson, teachers will be able to focus their attention on specific students who are struggling while the rest of the class engages with material appropriate for them," Salman Khan said in a statement.
Salman Khan paid a visit to Idaho last year, taking part in an ongoing-education speaker series. After his visit, the Khan Academy's number of registered users in the state spiked from 40,000 to 55,000. A two-day educator conference in Boise touched off a 70 percent increase among educators and others, prompting Khan to partner with the Albertson Foundation and academics at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa.
Staff at NNU will help integrate the pilot program statewide and develop teaching methods that can help get the most out of the technology.
The Khan Academy also will take part in monitoring student improvement in math on the MAP assessment tests.
