A McLaren F1's Rise from the Ashes
Written by
John Draneas
October 2010
In many cases, insurance adjusters say that all they are required to do is fix the damaged parts, which can create a non-matching Frankenstein carPictures of a McLaren F1 that suffered an engine fire were all over the Internet last year. It was an ugly sight—and saddened every car collector who saw it. "Legal Files" is pleased to report that the F1 was saved. In fact, the owner and I just returned from a very suitable shakedown cruise in it through the Scottish Highlands."Legal Files" had assisted the owner in the acquisition of this iconic supercar.

October 2010
The epic legal battles over a stolen 1954 Ferrari 375 Plus Grand Prix Karl Kleve was a Cincinnati real estate investor who amassed an impressive collection of over 400 cars. He also designed and built 24 Kleve Supercars. Among the Cadillacs, Rolls-Royces, Kleves and Bugattis was a 1954 Ferrari 375 Plus, s/n 0384AM, one of only six made. The 375 Plus was the 427 Cobra of its era, brutally fast, with barely adequate brakes, and an adequate suspension. S/N 0384AM had a long and storied history, participating in the Mille Migla before coming to the U.S., where it was particularly…

August 2010
Our sister publication, Corvette Market, reported the sale of a 2007 "Jay Leno Special Edition" Corvette at the Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach auction in April. The well-optioned, 1,873-mile Corvette was in show-car condition. Leno reportedly "handpicked" the car from a Carson, California Chevrolet dealer. The Corvette was autographed on the valve cover by Leno, carried Jay Leno signature exterior badging and a laser-inscribed Jay Leno dash plaque. The lot also included a selection of Jay Leno memorabilia, including an autographed photograph of Leno with President George W. Bush, and a genuine Corvette jacket and golf cap, both with Leno's signature embroidered…

The case involved a 29-foot Sea Ray boat, but the legal principles apply equally to collector cars.The boat's owner, a supervisor at a title and escrow company, kept the boat moored at a Portland marina.

Continuous History Car vs. Original Component Car? You decideIn a perfect world, every historic car would boast a spotless provenance and a documented list of distinguished owners, none of whom ever "abused" the car by changing a major component, let alone by crashing it. The real world is different. Witness competition cars, which in their heyday were used very hard and crashed frequently. The urgency then was to get it to its next race. It got whatever it needed-a new frame, another engine, a new body. Just fix it! As a lawyer I have been involved in numerous disputes involving…

By Matt Hrodey
KENNARD – James Dudley found something he didn't expect when he walked out
to get his Monday edition of The Courier-Times.
Sitting on top of his paper was a fake, oversized bill bearing the faces of
former Vice-President Dick Cheney and former President George W. Bush. Instead
of a dollar amount, the bill was marked "9-11."
The realistic feel and color of the note impressed Dudley, who said it felt
like a new bill freshly released from an ATM. It bore words at the top reading
"Fraudulent Event Note," ones at the bottom saying "One Deception"
and several Web site addresses.
Page A-2:
Cause stir in Kennard
Charles Millis, another recipient of the bill, was moderately impressed by
its realism. "It's fairly realistic," he said. Millis called a couple
people he knew who lived on the south side of town, but they hadn't gotten anything
like the "9-11" dollar with their newspaper.
Managing Editor Randy Rendfeld said the newspaper didn't deliver the bills,
which had also found their way into several other newspaper boxes in Kennard.
So where did they come from?

When the New York Times explored the political beliefs of Daniel Sunjata, an actor on the FX network's show "Rescue Me," it was under the banner of a "sinister theory."
The "sinister theory" that a group of neoconservative politicians may have colluded to allow, or bring about, the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
On Thursday's Fox and Friends, Greg Gutfield, provocative host of Fox's late night program Red Eye, called individuals like Sunjata, who question the events of 9/11, "mentally ill."
"[Sunjata] believe that 9/11 was a preemptive strike by a neoconservative government," said Gutfield. "I think that means Bush. What angers me about this is people are treating it with respect."
The 9/11 issues are major plot lines in the first 10 episodes of Rescue Me season 5, set to air in April.
"The New York Times ran a piece about it," said Gutfield. "They interviewed the producer — the producer described the actor, the actor believes this stuff, that the actor is well-read, very passionate about it.
"They say this sort of thing about conspiratorialists all the time, but they never say these people are idiots, they're mentally ill, they shouldn't be treated with respect.
"It's an insult to people that were victims of 9/11 and their families. It's an insult to firefighters. I am surprised they are doing this."
Of course, Gutfield, as a professional media water and commentator, shouldn't be surprised at all.… Continue reading

York Times
coming episode of the acclaimed FX drama "Rescue Me" will tackle what may sound
like a far-fetched plot line: that the attacks of Sept. 11 were an "inside job."
The actor who espouses the theories on camera, it turns out, also subscribes
to them in real life.
Claims that Al Qaeda terrorists were not solely responsible for the attacks
have a lively following on the Internet, including on YouTube, but the second
episode of "Rescue Me's" fifth season, starting in April,
may represent the first fictional presentation of 9/11 conspiracy theories by
a mainstream media company (FX is operated by the News Corporation).
"They're not discussed a lot in the press," Daniel Sunjata,
the actor who plays Franco Rivera on "Rescue Me," told reporters
at a television press tour last month. He predicted that the episode would be
"socio-politically provocative."
In the episode, Mr. Sunjata's character delivers a two-minute monologue
for a French journalist describing a "neoconservative government effort"
to control the world's oil, drastically increase military spending and
"change the definition of pre-emptive attack." To put it into action,
he continues, "what you need is a new Pearl Harbor. That's what
they said they needed."
Mr. Sunjata surprised some of the TV reporters when he said that he "absolutely,
100 percent" supports the assertion that "9/11 was an inside job."
The alternative theories "seem to me to make a lot more sense than the
ones that are popularly espoused,"… Continue reading

The super-secretive National Security Agency has been quietly monitoring, decrypting, and interpreting foreign communications for decades, starting long before it came under criticism as a result of recent revelations about the Bush administration's warrantless wiretapping program. Now a forthcoming PBS documentary asks whether the NSA could have prevented 9/11 if it had been more willing to share its data with other agencies.
Author James Bamford looked into the performance of the NSA in his 2008 book, The Shadow Factory, and found that it had been closely monitoring the 9/11 hijackers as they moved freely around the United States and communicated with Osama bin Laden's operations center in Yemen. The NSA had even tapped bin Laden's satellite phone, starting in 1996.
"The NSA never alerted any other agency that the terrorists were in the United States and moving across the country towards Washington," Bamford told PBS.
PBS also found that "the 9/11 Commission never looked closely into NSA's role in the broad intelligence breakdown behind the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. If they had, they would have understood the full extent to which the agency had major pieces of the puzzle but never put them together or disclosed their entire body of knowledge to the CIA and the FBI."
In a review of Bamford's book, former senator and 9/11 Commission member Bob Kerrey wrote, "As the 9/11 Commission later established, U.S. intelligence officials knew that al-Qaeda had held a planning meeting in Malaysia, found out the names of two recruits who had been present — Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi — and suspected that one and maybe both of them had flown to Los Angeles.…Continue reading

Advocates for open and transparent government are quick to note that no American
presidential administration has, in practice, been enthusiastic about reducing
secrecy in the executive branch–for some obvious and sometimes quite legitimate
reasons. There are secrets that almost everyone agrees should remain secret.
But secrecy must be balanced with the citizens' right to examine the operations
of their government–to learn, to improve, to enforce, and sometimes to
shame. That's especially true when there are political or bureaucratic
incentives for secrecy that deserve far less respect than true matters of national
security. And despite the bipartisan resistance from those in power, the arc
of history has trended, if unevenly, toward openness. Claims of excessive secrecy
have become a tried and true political battering ram, easily wielded by the
party in opposition. Technological evolution has not only made the dissemination
of information easier and faster, but also has heightened our appetite for disclosure.
The trend isn't confined to the political sphere. Betty Ford's frank
discussion of her struggles with cancer and alcoholism in the 1970s marked a
new era of openness in our personal medical lives, and the invention of the
personal video camera spawned a cottage industry around moments–gaffes,
goofs, tragedies–that were once private.
Against that backdrop, there is wide agreement among journalists and openness
advocates that the administration of George W. Bush was an aberration, at least
in the modern era. Bush and his advisers came into office with a broad vision… Continue reading

Michael J. Fox to play paraplegic on FX series
By DANIEL FRANKEL
January 14, 2009
It's been a hot-potato even for the most heavyweight of political pundits
in recent years, but the fifth season of the FX series "Rescue Me"
will intrepidly delve into the controversial theory that the 9/11 attacks were
aided or perpetrated by the U.S. government.
Season five will find the men of Engine 62 divided over the polarizing theory
after a journalist working on a 10-year-anniversary story delves up painful
"I think there are a lot of well-thought-out ideas and theories (about
9/11) that to me make more sense than has been popularly espoused, and I'm
glad we could explore it in the context of the show," said cast member
Daniel Sanjata, addressing tube journos at the Television Critics Assn. confab
in Universal City Tuesday.
That storyline, and others, including a five-episode arc featuring Michael
J. Fox as an alcoholic paraplegic, will punctuate "Rescue Me's"
fifth campaign — one which series masterminds Denis Leary and Peter Tolan hope
puts the show back on track creatively after what they felt was a lackluster
season four.
"We didn't have the clarity of vision we had in previous years,"
noted Tolan. "There was a lack of focus."
Added series star and exec producer Leary: "We're five years in.
You've got to have some suck parts, and we got those out of the way."

From the magazine issue dated Jan 12, 2009
In the grim, sleepless months of excavation after the September 11 attacks, forensic pathologists in New York City worked day and night to identify the dead. They didn't have much to go on. The collapsed World Trade Center towers had burned at temperatures reaching 2,000 degrees, incinerating those trapped inside. Many of the bodies of the passengers aboard the two airplanes that struck the buildings were consumed by burning jet fuel, leaving only traces of DNA, much of it so damaged that it was impossible to read. Few bodies were found intact. Most of the human remains culled from the vast wreckage at Ground Zero were little more than tiny fragments of charred tissue and bone. The volume was overwhelming. Robert Shaler, who headed the city's Department of Forensic Biology and was a leader of the identification effort, worried his lab would be paralyzed if it tried to identify every piece. At first, they decided they would only attempt to test samples that were "the size of a thumb or larger," he says. But when they saw how small many of the fragments were, they changed their minds. "If we were really going to make an honest effort," Shaler says, "we had to do everything that came along."
Shaler and his colleagues at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner gave weekly updates to family members of the victims, reporting how many of the dead had been identified and reassuring them that the city was doing everything to identify their loved ones.…Continue reading

The American print
and TV media has never been very good. These days it is horrible. If a person
intends to be informed, he must turn to foreign news broadcasts, to Internet
sites, to foreign newspapers available on the Internet, or to alternative newspapers
that are springing up in various cities. A person who sits in front of Murdoch's
Fox "News" or CNN or who reads the New York Times is simply being
brainwashed with propaganda.
Before conservatives nod their heads in agreement, I'm not referring
to "the liberal media." I mean the propaganda that issues from the
US government and the Israel Lobby.
It was neoconservative Bush regime propaganda fed to America through Judith
Miller and the New York Times and through Murdoch's Fox "News"
that convinced Americans that they were in danger from a small secular Arab
country half way around the globe called Iraq. It was the American media that
convinced Americans that getting rid of dangerous "weapons of mass destruction,"
weapons that did not exist in Iraq, would be a cakewalk paid for by Iraqi oil
It is the same propagandistic American print and TV media that has rationalized
Bush's illegal invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan based on seven years of
lies and deception.
It is the same media that today provides only Israeli propaganda as "coverage"
of the Israeli war crimes in Gaza.
It was the New York Times that spiked for one year the leaked information
from the National Security Agency that the Bush regime, in violation of US law,
was illegally spying on Americans without warrants.…

In a companion essay (reprinted below), I discussed the response of some articles in the mainstream press to the claim, made by some defenders of Israel, that Professor Richard Falk should be removed from his current position of UN rapporteur on human rights abuses in the Palestinian Territories — a claim that was reflected in the refusal of Israel on December 14, 2008, to allow him to enter the country. I included in this essay a discussion of an article by reporter Joel Brinkley because, although it was published before Israel's action against Falk 1 , it could be read as a defense of that action. Brinkley, who had previously worked for the New York Times , argued that Falk did not have the right "frame of mind" for his UN position. In the present essay, I will focus on Brinkley's argument for this charge, suggesting that it shows that he does not have the right frame of mind for his own current position as visiting professor of journalism at Stanford University.
Brinkley's Discussion of 9/11
Brinkley's charge that Falk is unfit for his UN role is quite remarkable, given Falk's stature. He is Professor Emeritus of International Law and Practice at Princeton University and currently Distinguished Visiting Professor at the University of California at Santa Barbara. He has had published (as author or editor) over 60 books by academic and other mainstream presses. He is also widely respected and sought after as a speaker and conference participant.… Continue reading

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — A U.S. human rights group on Monday called for
a stay of all war-crimes proceedings against five Guantánamo Bay prisoners charged
with orchestrating the Sept. 11 attacks until after President-elect Barack Obama
takes office.
Lawyers for the New York-based Human Rights First said they filed the friend-of-the-court
brief because military prosecutors are likely to seek another hearing in Guantánamo's
highest-profile case before Obama takes over Jan. 20.
"There is no legitimate reason to expend judicial resources prosecuting
a capital case under a system that will be obsolete before the matter can be
tried," the group's brief said.
Obama opposes the military war-crimes trials and has pledged to close the prison
on a Navy base in southeast Cuba, which holds 250 men.
The defendants in the Sept. 11 case wrote a letter on Nov. 4 — the day
Obama was elected president — saying they wanted to confess, presumably
to plead guilty and face the death penalty. At least two of the men, including
the self-described mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, have said they want to
be executed to achieve martyrdom.
But the formal confessions were delayed when a judge ruled this month that
two of the defendants couldn't enter pleas until the court determines their
mental competency. The other three said they would also wait.
The judge, Army Col. Stephen Henley, has ordered lawyers to advise him by Jan.

As the departing Bush administration frantically attempts to shore up its place in history, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann stands ready to kick the props out from under it again. A renewed claim that "no one could have anticipated" the attacks of 9/11 attracted his scorn in particular on Thursday's Countdown.
"This is a White House talking point still, even though your average three-year-old could disprove it using an etch-a-sketch." Olbermann sneered on Thursday, over the heading, "Insult the Dead-gate."
Olbermann's specific target was White House press spokesman Tony Fratto, who responded to a Fox News interviewer's suggestion on Wednesday that before 9/11, "nobody was thinking that there'd be terrorists flying 767s into buildings" by agreeing, "No one could have anticipated that kind of attack — or very few people."
"Yeah, well, it ain't true," Olbermann remarked, with open contempt dripping from his words, "and out of respect for the people who died that
day you damn well better stop saying it."
Olbermann then ran through a list of pre-9/11 warnings of potential al Qaeda hijackings, noting, "A president's daily brief as far back as December 1998 said bin Laden was 'preparing to hijack US aircraft in hopes of trading hostages for jailed radicals.' … The August 6, 2001 brief, of course, told President Bush — if he read it — that there were 'patterns of suspicious activity in this country consistent with preparations for hijackings.'"
Olbermann did not mention either the… Continue reading

An Iraqi journalist threw two shoes at President Bush during a news conference Sunday with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. The president was not hurt in the incident.
Muntadar al-Zaidi Did What We Journalists Should Have Done Long Ago
Mon, 12/15/2008 David Lindorff ThisCan'tBeHappening.net
When Iraqi journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi heaved his two shoes at the head of President George W. Bush during a press conference in Baghdad, he did something that the White House press corps should have done years ago.
Al-Zaidi listened to Bush blather that the half-decade of war he had initiated with the illegal invasion of Iraq had been "necessary for US security, Iraqi stability (sic) and world peace" and something just snapped. The television correspondent, who had been kidnapped and held for a while last year by Shiite militants, pulled off a shoe and threw it at Bush–a serious insult in Iraqi culture–and shouted "This is a farewell kiss, you dog!" When the first shoe missed its target, he grabbed a second shoe and heaved it too, causing the president to duck a second time as al-Zaidi shouted, "This is from the widows, the orphans, and those who were killed in Iraq!"
I'll admit, listening to Bush lie his way through eight years of press conferences, while pre-selected reporters played along and pretended to get his attention so they could ask questions which had been submitted and vetted in advance, I have felt like throwing my shoes at the television set.…Continue reading

Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit: Talking Points
Download the PDF version of these talking points here.
As the House and Senate tax writing committees move toward a re-write of the Tax Code, the Historic Tax Credit should remain part of permanent law as a result of its overwhelming success over the last four decades. Here are some key points to consider when communicating with your members of Congress and other elected officials.
- Since 1981, the historic rehabilitation tax credit (HTC) has:
- created more than 2.4 million good paying, local jobs;
- leveraged nearly $109 billion in private investment in our communities;
- generated a significant return on investment for the federal government;
- and preserved more than 39,600 buildings that form the historic fabric of our nation.
- Since it was permanently written into the tax code more than 30 years ago, the HTC has been a widely used redevelopment tool for inner cities, towns, and rural communities across the country. The HTC has a proven track record of stimulating economic growth and creating jobs through public-private leveraging opportunities.
- The HTC accomplishes all the stated objectives of tax reform: it generates enormous economic activity by leveraging billions of dollars in private capital, makes the tax code fairer, and promotes a longstanding social priority.
- The HTC is the most significant investment the federal government makes to preserve our nation's historic properties.
- When the HTC was examined by Congress in the lead up to the 1986 Tax Reform bill, legislators concluded an incentive to rehabilitate historic structures remained justified. The House Ways and Means Committee report reasoned that without the HTC market forces would drive investment away from more costly rehabilitation and urban cores and toward more predictable new construction in the suburbs.
- This justification is as valid today as it was then. Developers, both large and small, report that historic rehabilitation projects would not occur but for the HTC. Even in situations where developers benefit from lower tax rates, the less profitable option of historic preservation will not be favored over building on previously undeveloped commercial sites. Absent the HTC, which fills a critical financing gap, there will be a halt to the rehabilitation of historic commercial properties in the United States.
- A new study commissioned by the National Trust, the first-ever research on the HTC's catalytic impacts, found that the benefits of historic tax credit projects go far beyond the project itself, including increasing the surrounding area's number of construction permits, business licenses, and surrounding property values in the study areas.
- In 2012, the National Park Service commissioned a study that concluded the HTC generates a significant return on investment for the federal government. According to the Park Service, over the life of the program the IRS has issued $21 billion in tax credits while generating more than $26.6 billion in direct federal tax revenue from income taxes paid by material manufacturers, construction workers, and the retail and service sector tenants that ultimately occupy rehabilitated properties.
- The HTC continues to fulfill the federal public policy goal set forth in the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 of preserving the nation's architectural heritage by rehabilitating historic structures that tell America's story. It benefits communities throughout the nation where thousands of iconic historic buildings have been brought back to life and are contributing to the local economy.
- As Congress examines ways to improve our nation's tax code, there is a critical opportunity to modernize the HTC so that it better serves the needs of both large and small communities throughout the country. The Creating American Prosperity through Preservation Act ("CAPP") Act (S.1141), introduced by Sen. Cardin (D-MD) and Sen. Collins (R-ME) in the Senate and pending introduction in the House, includes several practical changes to the current program that will enhance the HTC's ability to preserve historic buildings and revitalize our communities.

Hold'em, like many games, can take a lifetime to master. And one of the reasons why some beginners struggle with the game is they make minor slip-ups that can easily be avoided. With that in mind, here's a list of the top mistakes most new players make. Avoid these, and your game will get hellova strong, hellova fast:
Playing Too Many Hands: We realize that, when people sit down at a game, they want to play. This excitement, however, often means they'll play bad hands because they want to stay in the game so bad-ly. Remember: Bad players play bad hands; good players play good hands. If you have a bad hand, get out. Another game will be starting soon.
Playing Above Your Bankroll: This is a fairly easy mistake to make, but it's also an easy one to avoid. Although it may be hard, don't get caught up in the excitement and play games you can't afford. Also: If you're just starting out, it's always best to stick to lo-limit games.
Becoming Too Emotional at the Table: Remember: it's just a game. You're bound to make bad bets, and you're also going to lose sometimes. You'll run into annoying opponents—so does everyone who plays. Just try to go with the flow and not be swayed by your emotions. Getting too emotionally involved is called "going on tilt" and it's something you'll definitley have to overcome if you plan on becoming a poker hotshot.
Not Using Pot Odds: If your hand needs improvement, the concept of pot odds can help you determine if you should call in order to see the next card on the board. Few beginning players understand pot odds, and they end up calling too often as a result. So, before you hit the tables, make sure you're in the know by clicking here. It will definitely save you a lot of time, money and headaches.
Not Following Etiquette: This is a mistake a lot of players make at brick-and-mortar casinos. Just remember: Most people want the game to move pretty quickly, so if you decide you want to raise, all you have to say is "I raise." If you decide you want to call, all you have to say is "I call." Better yet, don't say anything and push your desired amount to the center of the table. In Texas Hold'em, "efficiency" also means "etiquette."
Imitating Other Players: Understandably, a lot of new players learn how to play Texas Hold'em by mimicking the style of other players. The problem with this is, the decisions those players make are usually determined by that particular game and probably won't work in all cases. Develop your own style and strategy as quickly as you can. After all, succeeding at Hold'em isn't done through imitation, but through understanding the complexities of the game.
Superstitions: Most people believe in luck, and while we'd like to be able to dissuade them, we know we'd have a better chance of swatting a dust mite with a tennis racket. Honestly, if luck does exist, it tends to even itself out over the long run—surprisingly adhering to the rules of probability and the Law of Large Numbers. But because gambling involves randomness, people will often chalk up the outcome of a game to completely unrelated events that coincide with how they fared at a certain gambling session. This may be as innocent as believing in a lucky shirt, a lucky hat or even a lucky pair of squibs. But however such superstitions impinge upon your fashion sense, you can't let them go too far. You can't, for instance, believe that if you constantly move seats or change socks—thereby killing everyone else's "lucky" groove—that you'll somehow wind up the next World Series of Poker champ. Get real! The only thing you actually have the power to control in Hold'em is how well you play. Play a great game and you'll win more often than even "luck" would have it. And get this: A great player can be stark naked if he wants—assuming, of course, that he's playing online.
Overvaluing Suited Hands: Having a suited hand is a plus, but you should never play a hand just because it's suited. The first two things to consider about a starting hand are the ranks of the cards and whether the cards are paired. These are, by far, the most important factors in the value of a hand. After this, you should consider if they are suited or connecting.

The San Jose Sharks' top line is already peaking just two games into the NHL's lockout-delayed season. Patrick Marleau had two goals and an assist and Joe Thornton had three assists as the Sharks won their second in a row, beating Edmonton 6-3 on Tuesday night to spoil the Oilers' home opener. Logan Couture also had two goals and an assist, and Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Dan Boyle scored the other goals for the Sharks (2-0-0) who led 6-1 before the end of the first period. ''It's only two games, but we've had a couple of nice wins and put some points in the bank which is important in a season like this,'' said Marleau, who now has four goals and an assist in two games this season. ''My linemates have been playing this year, so it's been up to me to try and play catch-up with them.'' Thornton, who now has five assists, believes it is important to get off to a good start in a shortened season. ''We started off the season against two teams having their home-openers, which can be toug...

Borges Says IMF Offering Options to Work With Revamped EFSF
Oct. 5 (Bloomberg) -- The International Monetary Fund has offered a slate of options to European Union authorities as they work to revamp the euro area's main rescue fund, said Antonio Borges, the IMF's European department head.
The IMF is in a position to work "alongside" the European Financial Stability Facility on rescues, such as possible efforts to restore confidence in Spain and Italy, Borges told reporters in Brussels today.
"The most important and immediate help that we could provide" is precautionary lending, as the EFSF also will be able to do once the euro region's parliaments have finished approving an upgrade, Borges said. Other options, including investments in the primary and secondary bond markets, might also be "hypothetically" possible.
"To be able to do this we'd have to create a special purpose vehicle, which we have done in the past in other circumstances," Borges said. "It could be done, it's not to be excluded."
In a subsequent statement, Borges retreated from some of these suggestions. "We are not contemplating any market involvement with the EFSF," he said. "Any alternative lending modalities to what we do now would require a different legal structure and the use of a different source of financing. We have not discussed these issues with our membership."
'Catalyst' Role
Borges said the EFSF needs to be a "catalyst" for drawing investors back to the market. He said the 440-billion euro ($586 billion) fund doesn't need to be greatly expanded, just used efficiently, perhaps with the aid of leverage or additional guarantees from some nations.
"The most important thing in our view is that as soon as the authorities know how they want to use the EFSF, if that is clearly communicated to the markets, can have a very important stabilizing effect," Borges said. He said it will take some time to implement those policies, since the EFSF will need to raise money once the EU decides how to proceed.
In its new role, the EFSF will have the option of buying bonds on the secondary market, "in ways that would be very helpful for Spain and Italy," whose bonds were bought by the European Central Bank, though they didn't require bailout packages, Borges said.

(from the sub-climat En Orveaux). An intensely floral nose is notably ripe with notes of plum, spice, black raspberry and cassis in evidence. There is a seductive texture to the solidly well-concentrated medium weight plus flavors that benefit from plenty of structure-buffering dry extract such that this seems more forward than it really is. The tannins are dense but fine and this should significantly reward 12 to 15 years of cellaring.
Good bright, medium red. Red cherry, redcurrant, smoke and white pepper on the nose, complemented by mellow oak tones. Rich, dense and silky, with a dominant flavor of sweet raspberry. Really opens out on the back half, then grips the palate on the very long finish, which features a note of bitter orange zest. This wine began with the lowest potential alcohol of all of Faiveley's grand cru holdings in 2011 (it was 11.8%, chaptalized to 12.6%), and will rely as much on its acidity as on its tannins for aging.

text: Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Book by James Lapine. In Act 1, a childless baker and his wife swindle, steal from and lie to Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Jack (of beanstalk fame). All this to break a witch's spell responsible for their childlessness. Everyone's wish is granted, but, in act 2, our fairy tale characters begin to feel the repercussions of their fulfilled wishes, realizing that what you want is often more than you bargained for. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Score and Best Book and New York Drama Critics Circle Award, Into the Woods reminds us that actions have consequences, we each need to take responsibility, and we should be careful what we wish for.

From Wallace Matthews:
I'm not saying anyone should necessarily be fired for this, although there are valid arguments on that side of the aisle, but it's times like these that I miss George the most. Even if nobody would end up losing their job, at least the newspapers would be interesting to read.
Even with the New York Yankees having relinquished a 10-game lead in the AL East, Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner said neither manager Joe Girardi's job, nor anyone else's, is in danger.Hal also told a little story about how he always felt--even when the Yanks were up 10 games--that this would get closer as the season wore on. Which might be true, but really at this point, who cares.
"Jobs are not riding on this," Steinbrenner said, speaking to a small group of reporters in the corridors of Yankee Stadium.
Steinbrenner said the team examines everything in the offseason, but he seemed to be satisfied with Girardi and all of the Yankees' personnel.
Steinbrenner reiterated that he plans on cutting the Yankees' payroll by 2014. Under the new collective bargaining agreement, the Yankees could save tens of millions of dollars if they lower their payroll -- now around $200 million -- to $189 million.
"I've made it clear that is very important to me, for several reasons," Steinbrenner said. "You are talking about a 10 percent reduction in payroll. I don't see that as an outrageous concept. I never have."
Right now, Steinbrenner said he is "tense."
"I'm excited," Steinbrenner said. "I think we would all like a bit more breathing room. Right now, we have zero breathing room. We have had a few good weeks. They have been playing tough. We have (Mark Teixeira) back tonight, which could only help and be a boost."
I'm not saying anyone should necessarily be fired for this, although there are valid arguments on that side of the aisle, but it's times like these that I miss George the most. Even if nobody would end up losing their job, at least the newspapers would be interesting to read.

My Golden Retriever has slept on this bed for several years, including after being hosed off from mud or river swimming, or walks in the pouring rain. She likes to lie on it. The cover has been washed a few times. So I jus bought one for my son's new Lab. Be sure to get this exact model.
Has no padding to it

Sierra came down with a rather wicked cold last week: fever, cough, sniffles, all of it. There's not much sadder than a sick
baby toddler? 16-month-old – you can cuddle her, wipe her nose, give her all the water she cares to drink, and tell her she'll feel better soon but does she truly understand? This week she finally seems on the mend but we've been laying low and eating lots of soup (and cake for the grown-ups because why not?).
I made one of my classic many-vegetabled soups (garlic, onion, carrots, sweet potato, potato, parsnip, turnip) and pureed the pot into velvety smoothness on Saturday afternoon while she had a long nap. The sun streamed in as I enjoyed my solitary lunch and hit the clementines (or tangelos?) placed just so on the counter. There was a blessed respite from the ongoing construction project next door and I took a moment to be thankful for the quiet. The little things, yes? Two months in with no end in reasonable sight I've started appreciating Sundays ever more, as it's the one day a week they don't work. Morocco, you never fail to challenge.

Shrimp & Spinach Quiche
From EatingWell: March/April 2014
This healthy quiche recipe is perfect for entertaining—the quiche can be made ahead and is just as flavorful served warm or at room temperature. Filled with shrimp, spinach, oregano, caramelized onions and feta cheese, this healthy quiche with a whole-grain crust is perfect for breakfast or brunch, or served with a light salad for lunch.

Nutrition Profile
Low calorie | Low sodium | Diabetes appropriate |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 3/4 cup white whole-wheat flour
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cold butter
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2-3 tablespoons ice water
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cups diced onions
- 1/8 teaspoon salt plus 1/4 teaspoon, divided
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup finely chopped spinach
- 3/4 cup chopped cooked shrimp
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 2 large egg whites
- 3/4 cup low-fat milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- To prepare crust: Whisk whole-wheat flour and all-purpose flour with salt in a medium bowl. Cut butter into small pieces; using your fingers, quickly rub the butter into the dry ingredients until smaller but still visible.
- Add sour cream and oil; toss with a fork to combine with the dry ingredients. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of ice water over the mixture. Toss with a fork until evenly moist; if the mixture seems dry, add up to 1 more tablespoon water. Knead the dough in the bowl a few times—the mixture may still be a little crumbly—then firmly press into a disk. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- To prepare filling & bake quiche: Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over high heat. Add onions and 1/8 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring frequently, until the onions start to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add water, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are golden brown and very soft, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool while you roll out the crust.
- Place the dough on a sheet of parchment or wax paper and roll into a 12- to 13-inch circle, dusting the top with a little flour, as needed. (If chilled more than 1 hour, let the dough stand at room temperature for 5 minutes before rolling.) Place the prepared pie pan upside down in the center of the dough. Holding one hand on top of the pan and the other hand underneath the paper, flip pan and dough over so the dough is lining the pan. Remove the paper and patch any tears in the dough. Trim the crust so it evenly overhangs the edge by about 1 inch, then tuck the edges under at the rim and crimp with your fingers or a fork.
- Spread the caramelized onions in the bottom of the crust. Layer spinach and shrimp on top of the onions and sprinkle with oregano. Top with cheese. Whisk eggs, egg whites, milk, sour cream, pepper and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Pour the mixture into the crust.
- Bake the quiche until puffed and firm when touched in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. To serve, cut into 8 pieces.

IEEE Std 211-1977 now has an expanded scope relative to its predecessor through the addition of terms for radio astronomy, hydromagnetic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves, magnetosphere, and plasma. Some new definitions are related to dispersion, Doppler frequency, time-harmonic fields and waves, phasor notation, and Poynting vectors. Note that under radio spectrum the commonly used designations ULF and UHF lack symmetry, since only for ULF is the use of ??ultra?? in accord with "beyond."

Once upon a time, there was a city.
It was not the largest city or the smallest. It was not the richest or the poorest. But this city had a reputation, nonetheless. It was known throughout the land as dry and inhospitable — heated to unimaginable temperatures for several months of the year, ruled by a witch of a governor and a cruel sheriff, a cultural wasteland.
The people of this city knew the truth. Yes, upper management could be rough, and at first, the landscape wasn't easy on the eyes, but past the strip malls and the cookie-cutter subdivisions, a wonderful metropolis burgeoned: Bartenders poured the craftiest of cocktails, world-class chefs cooked, there were teams to cheer for, boutiques to shop at, and clubs where you could dance the night away.
Once a year, the kindhearted souls at the city's alternative newsweekly gathered the finest of what the place had to offer, presenting it in the hallowed pages of a book called the "Best of Phoenix."
Enjoy this year's 36th edition of Best of Phoenix. Enjoy your city. And may you all live happily ever after.

[[caption-width-right:350:I never knew being weak could be so painful...]]
* When we're first introduced to Leorio, the audience was made to believe that he was just some greedy punk because his motivation to being a hunter was MoneyDearBoy. However, at the beginning of the Hunter's Exam, Kurapika learns that he wants the money to be a doctor and run a free clinic after [[spoiler: a close friend of his died at a young age]]. It makes his FunnyMoments where he rants about wanting money HarsherInHindsight.
* During the arc where Gon goes to the Zoldyk household, the BattleButler Canary stops them from progressing any further. Gon attempts to get over the line she sets, but she effortlessly [[CurbStompBattle knocks him away with her cane.]] He keeps getting knocked back over and over and ''over'' again, just to make it through, and she's having none of it. By the time sunset hits, she actually worries about his health and questions why he'd be stupid enough to keep crawling to the gates when he just won't pass, and all Gon answers with is the fact that Killua is his [[HeterosexualLifePartners friend.]] Just when we think that she's going to have a change of heart and let him pass... [[spoiler: Luckily, she survived the whole thing.]]
--> '''Canary:''' "Please, save Master Kill- *[[KilledMidSentence BANG]]*
* The events of chapters 304-307. Seeing the KidHero ''break'' and give in to rage and despair is heart-wrenching.
** [[spoiler: What's worse is that after going on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, he's completely broken both physically and mentally. In fact, he was nearly on his deathbed after fighting Pitou]]
** The easiest way to describe this fight is " no one wins". [[spoiler: Despite Gon ''literally'' punching Pitou in half, the [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique incredibly high cost to do so]] is absolutely horrific.]]
* [[spoiler: Kite's death]], made even worse by Gon's complete denial of the possibility of his death, especially when it was obvious from the get go [[spoiler: Kite had long since died and had been turned into a puppet by Pitou.]] The audience is painfully aware of this which [[spoiler: makes Gon's complete breakdown at the AwfulTruth all the more tragic.]]
** [[spoiler: He's technically revived as a Chimera Ant, but the person himself is still dead]]
* After [[spoiler: Kurapika kills Uvogin]], he falls to his knees and holds his head in horror. The next time we see him, he goes to his hotel room, and starts to chant the Kurata prayer slowly, traumatized. [[TheWoobie Poor guy]].
* [[spoiler:The Chimera Ant King's death, especially with the pure black panels fitting his dying dialogue, which makes his death even sadder. It's almost a Japanese ComicBook/WhenTheWindBlows.]]
* If the entire annihilation of a clan wasn't enough alone, the horrible manner at which the Kurata were massacred is absolutely '''heartwrenching'''. [[spoiler: Families were forced to sit, facing each other, as they were stabbed and beheaded one-by-one. Pureblood members of the Clan had their eyes gouged out. Children, wives, and husbands were tortured in front of their beloveds to illicit feelings of despair and rage from their victims in order to turn their eyes an even more startling shade of scarlet.]] This was the destruction of an entirely innocent race of people, at the hands of monsters.
** Which makes Kurapica's quest for vengeance and Gon's outrage over the Phantom troupe murdering people, even when they know full well how much it hurts to lose someone ''they'' care about, even more understandable and poignant.
* Speaking of the special chapters, [[spoiler:the sheer contrast between [[CheerfulChild the child]] [[WideEyedIdealist Kurapika]] used to be (not at all unlike Gon) and [[AloofAlly the person]] [[ThePowerOfHate he is now]]]], also serves to drive home just how much of an impact the massacre has had on [[LastOfHisKind his life]] and [[HeWhoFightsMonsters his mental state]], and how much he has lost from there. [[spoiler:His return in the Zodiac arc a few chapters later doesn't help things. He has become extremely hostile and shut himself from his friends and everything, going from eagerly reading and dreaming about the outside to practically isolating himself in a dark room with the Scarlet Eyes he has collected, completely focused on his mission]]. Maybe, if the Kurata massacre had never happened and this were a different story, Kurapika could have easily been the hero of a more typical Shonen story. Instead, his revenge has become his only purpose and consumed everything in his life. It seems he has completely abandoned [[spoiler:the promise he made to Pairo]], which is deeply depressing.
--> [[foldercontrol]]
[[folder: '''Kurapika:''' ]]
(reflecting) [[spoiler:Pairo... It looks like my journey is finally ending. But, where will it take me? [[YouCantGoHomeAgain People to greet me or welcome me, or a place to come back to... I don't have anything like that at all]].]]
* Alluka's SplitPersonality Nanika spends most of the time giving Alluka her CreepyChild cred. [[spoiler: Then, after it's revealed that Nanika likes Killua enough to do whatever he says without any of the [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor wish restrictions]] as long as it's a direct order, Killua tries to seal Alluka's power away by ordering Nanika to never come out again. Cue the creepy, blank-eyed Nanika breaking down and crying until she complies, and then Alluka angrily chastising Killua for making her cry until he agrees to take it back.]]

As John Denver, the former John Henry Deutschendorf was a ubiquitous icon of the 1970s. Although he had been a musician and songwriter in the 1960s, penning "Leaving on a Jet Plane" for Peter, Paul & Mary, Denver hit his stride in the '70s with earnest folk songs celebrating the glories of the natural world and life's simple pleasures. Although he was sometimes savaged by critics for his overarching earnestness, his songs speak for themselves, and his records still sell in large numbers. In the wake of his premature death in a 1997 plane crash, a number of contemporary artists have recorded Denver's songs, without any hint of irony.

I missed this program titled "Islamic Fundamentalism" on KCRW Tuesday. But a loyal reader—in fact, my boss—passed it along. Here's the synopsis from KCRW.com:
The phrase "Islamic feminist" might sound like an oxymoron, but Isobel Coleman says Muslim women argue that gender inequality is contrary to Islamic law and spirit. She writes that they're fighting for advancement from within their culture, and she says they're succeeding. POC producer Sarah Spitz speaks with Coleman about her new book, Paradise Beneath Her Feet: How Women are Transforming the Middle East.
I tried in vain to both embed the audio program or even include a link to KCRW, but each time it caused some snafu and wouldn't publish. Apologies. Here's a backdoor. Additionally, NPR's "Talk of the Nation" did a story by the same name back in 2003.

Wow. That was too fast. Good thing I didn't take a sip of beer at the start of that fight. If you can call that a fight.

Wow. That was too fast. Good thing I didn't take a sip of beer at the start of that fight. If you can call that a fight.
Who's front running KOTN?? I never seen FB fights.. Leg kick KO's are special though.
Damn that was fast.
Tonight is bittersweet. Weidman is the man. It's a shame he's going to have to be made an example of.
Lots of people in the thread are asking, "What if Weidman wins."
I think Weidman has the best chance out of anybody to beat Silva, but Anderson has left such an undeniable impression that I can't wrap my mind around the possibility that he will lose. He's just destroyed too many people in embarrassing fashion for me to question him.
If he actually loses tonight--I don't know what will happen in my mind. Disbelief? Psychosis? Let's wait and see.
Is it just me or is this forum morphing back into the old MMA News right now during the event. When UFC 162 started, this thread had a blue and white color scheme. Now it's back to classic black and orange. Whoever's working on this site during the fight, kudos to you.

A new way to charge batteries on the go has launched with the introduction of the compact USB battery charger by Varta.
The pocket-sized Varta USB charger is described as smaller than most mobile phones and - in the run up to Christmas - "the ideal accessory for any gadget lover".
It fits into a standard USB port, enabling the batteries to be charged through a PC or a laptop.
Shock resistant, the charger comes with two AA and two AAA pre-charged batteries and has two green LEDs to indicate when the device is in charging mode.
The USB charger is available from high street retailers, for an RRP of £9.99.
