Fatal system errorsUsually, a fatal system error, which may be an invalid page fault, a STOP error, a fatal exception error, or an application exception error, will cause a Windows-based application such as Access 2002 to stop responding or to fail. This article focuses on such errors in Windows 2000. In some rare cases, such an error may cause your operating system to stop responding. Overall, there are two basic causes for fatal errors:
Application-related problems
Confirmed bug in Access 2002Sometimes, a fatal system error can be caused a bug in an application. When this problem occurs, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:
You can view details about the error by clicking the text click here. When you do this, you will see information such as what file was involved in the error and the memory offset at which the error occurred.

Also, you may not be able to capture dialog boxes that contain graphics.
(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/137539/ )General causes of STOP 0x0000007F errors
Damaged or fragmented databaseIf the fatal system error occurs only when you open or use a particular database file (*.mdb), try to use the Compact and Repair Database command in Access 2002 to correct any potential problems that have been caused by damage to the database or by excessive fragmentation of the database structure. To do this, follow these steps:
If the database still behaves unpredictably after you run the Compact and Repair Database command, or if you receive a fatal system error, either immediately or after continued use, try the additional troubleshooting steps that are described in this article to find the cause of the page fault.
Corrupted databaseIf the Compact and Repair Database command does not solve unpredictable behavior or application-related fatal system errors, try to create a new database. Import objects from the old database into the new database. Then, compile all the modules in the new database.
Note This method is not recommended if your database is a replica in a replica set. If your replica is corrupted, you should create a new replica from the Design Master.
To create a new database and to import objects from the old database, follow these steps:
If a damaged, fragmented, or corrupted database was the cause of the unpredictable behavior or of the application-related fatal error, you should not see these problems the next time that you run Access 2002 and you open the new database. If you see the same problems in the new database, try the additional troubleshooting steps that are described in this article to determine the cause of the problem.

(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/283849/ )How to troubleshoot and to repair a damaged Access 2002 or later database
Damaged installationThe problems that you are seeing may be related to the way that Access 2002 is installed on your computer. If you have another computer available that has Access 2002 installed, try your database there. If you suspect that the cause of a fatal system error or of unpredictable behavior in Microsoft Access is related to the application and not to any particular database, the problems may result from such things as incorrect settings in the registry or from one or more missing or corrupted Microsoft Office XP files. To see if this is the case, try to repair your installation. If repairing the installation does not solve the problem, try to remove and then reinstall your installation.
Repair the installation
Remove and then reinstall the installationIf repairing the installation did not solve the problem, try to remove and then reinstall Access 2002 or Office XP.
Note If you have Microsoft Visual Basic with Microsoft SourceSafe installed, you do not have to remove the Visual Basic program. You only have to remove the SourceSafe component.
To remove and then reinstall the installation, follow these steps:
System-related problemsThis section discusses system-related causes for fatal system errors in Windows 2000.
Memory conflictA common cause of fatal system errors is a memory conflict that involves a device driver, a system component, or some other loaded file. To troubleshoot a memory conflict, the first step is to restart the computer in Safe Mode.
Safe Mode bypasses startup files, including the registry, the Config.sys file, the Autoexec.bat file, and the [Boot] and [386Enh] sections of the System.ini file. Additionally, Safe Mode provides you with access to the configuration files. Only essential system files and device drivers, such as the mouse pointing device driver, the keyboard driver, and the standard VGA driver, are loaded. Therefore, Safe Mode is useful for isolating and solving memory conflicts.
To start Windows in Safe Mode, follow these steps:
Temp folder issuesYou can sometimes experience unpredictable behavior in Microsoft Access when you do not have enough disk space for temporary files. You should periodically remove any leftover temporary files on your system. Also, make sure that you have at least 8 to 10 megabytes (MB) of free space on the hard disk that is available to your temporary (Temp) folder. You must first determine the location of your Windows Temp folder as well as verify the validity or your TMP and TEMP environment variables. To do this, follow these steps:
Disk Cleanup utilityIn Windows 2000, you can delete many unused or temporary files with the Disk Cleanup utility. Disk Cleanup searches your hard disk, and then shows you temporary files, Internet cache files, and unnecessary program files that you can safely delete. You can direct Disk Cleanup to delete some or all of those files. To open the utility, click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.
Video problemOccasionally in Microsoft Access, you can experience page faults or unpredictable screen behavior because of a video driver conflict or an incorrect graphics hardware setting for your system.
Video driver conflictTo troubleshoot a video driver conflict, change your system's video adapter to Standard VGA, which should work with most monitors. To do this, follow these steps:
Printer driver problemIf you receive a fatal error or experience printing problems when you try to print in Microsoft Access, try to use the Generic/Text Only driver. To do this, follow these steps:
Incorrect virtual memory settingsYou can occasionally receive unexpected behavior in Microsoft Access when the virtual memory setting is too low for your system. Windows uses a dynamic virtual memory manager to handle swap file duties. You should use the default virtual memory settings whenever possible.
However, if you suspect that the unexpected behavior in Microsoft Access is caused by low virtual memory, you can try to manually change the virtual memory settings. If the maximum setting for virtual memory is already set, you may need to choose a different hard disk or remove files from the current hard disk to increase the amount of disk space reserved for extra memory. To increase the amount of hard disk space reserved for virtual memory, follow these steps:
Hard disk fragmentation or errorsA fatal system error may be the result of disk fragmentation or hard disk errors. If this is the case, try to run one of the following tools to correct the problem.
The Disk Error-Checking toolThis tool checks for file system errors and bad sectors on your hard disk. To run the tool, follow these steps:
The Disk DefragmenterThis tool analyzes your disk to determine the level of defragmentation, and can also defragment it. To use this tool, follow these steps:

ASUS FX5700 Graphics Trouble
I have recently purchased the ASUS V9570 TD FX5700 Graphics Card to Replace my ASUS V8200/64M GeForce3 Graphics Card that has worked fine since I purchased it a few years ago. After removing all drivers and the ASUS V8200 itself and installing the new ASUS V9570 TD FX5700 and installing the latest nVidia driver (66.93) I notice that all my games look bad graphically. Windows itself looks fine running at 1280X1024 but when I go into all of my games (Battlefield 1942, Medal of Honor, Star Wars Battlefront, Delta Force Black Hawk Down, etc the graphics looks aweful. Most of the time the graphics are red or the text is very blocky and unable to be read. I thought maybe it was a bad card so I had the card replaced and the samething happens. This only seems to happen with the high end games. All these games ran fine with my ASUS V8200. I am running at AGP 4X if that help any. I have run out of ideas on how to fix this issue. Any ideas or has anyone else seen this before?
Thank You

Check out this thread: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=40217
Firstly, What mobo you Got? Make Sure that u Have a PSU of 350W+.
Download Omega drivers From omegadrivers.net, the latest is 61.77. the latest drivers doesn't always give u the best out of your card :retard:
once installed go to the analog display, There will now be a menu for AGP settings which is not available in Standard drivers, Disable the sideband adrressing, Give it a try. Also download latest AGP drivers for your mobo Chipset.
If that fails, try the card on a friends System.
REloading OS could be an option, but that could be unnecessary headache in the case that it fails, so try it on another HD if u have 1 laying around, if Ur using WinXP Pro, format it to NTFS, it's 20 times faster than FAT32.
Hope that one of these solutions could help u out.

This chain of noodle houses serves hand-pulled noodles and traditional local dishes in a lively, old-time atmosphere, with waiters shouting across the room to announce customers arriving. Try the classic zhajiang noodle, served in a ground-meat sauce with accompaniments of celery, bean sprouts, green beans, soybeans, slivers of cucumber, and red radish.

My husband and I went to the Old Beijing Noodle King on our last trip in July. Boy, were we disappointed!! The atmosphere is fun, loud, smokey and did I mention loud? Seems to be mostly men eating there and I'm surprised there were so many local men - could there be repeat customers? Everyone seemed to be getting the same dish. A big bowl of plain noodles and about 12 little dishes of things that the waiter tosses on top. It is quite a little
show. But we go to restaurants for the food not the show. The noodles were cold, stiff, horribly thick and uneven in appearance. The dark, dark, sauce that goes over it all reminded me of Marmite. Was that what it was? Thick and super salty, with little other flavor. You couldn't actually mix the sauce evenly over the noodles because of the consistancy of the sauce. You could only glob it on. We actually couldn't eat it. Chinese food can be so delicious. This was so crude with terrible flavor and stone cold. Inedible. Sorry. I won't go back.
No Thanks

About Me
Hi. My name is Matt Kitchen, M.Ed. and I started this website 8 years ago. When I started teaching almost 10 years ago I had a lot of tear filled moments wondering if this was the right profession for me while I struggled to teach at a high poverty, urban school. I hit my fight or flight moment and I decided to fight and get better. Over the past 10 years I have read books, researched pedagogy, attended conferences, spoken at conferences, written lessons, trained teachers, and put my heart and soul into becoming the best math teacher I could be. I have seen and experienced the worse, so I was determined to build and put into place the strategies and skills required to be an outstanding teacher. It has paid off as I have become a very accomplished teacher in my area where my students typically double the state test passage rate of urban school students. I have been recognized as having one of the highest growth rates for my students in the state of Ohio. Do I think I am the best? No. But every year I continue to try and become so, which has allowed me to amass a great deal of knowledge and resources that I know so many teachers could use. Join today and partner with me to continue our pursuit of A Perfect Math Classroom.
Money Back Guarantee
I offer a full money back guarantee because I stand behind my lessons and I am fully confident in them. I am confident because I use them when I teach and thousands of teachers around the world have also used them with great success. That being said, if you use the lessons found on Make Math More and they do not increase the engagement in your class and you honestly feel like your students did not gain anything from them then email me at the email address at the top of the page and I will return your money to you even if you already downloaded lessons (requests must be made within 30 days of purchase). I process all refunds within 24 hours so buy with confidence.

14 night trip to Ireland . . . where to start?
We are planning a 14 night trip to Ireland, flying into Dublin. I can't figure out which way to go. We can start with a drive to Trim/visit Newgrange for the first day of driving, then over to Co. Clare, Dingle Peninsula, Kerry/Kenmare, Kinsale, Cashel, Kilkenny, end in Dublin. Or we can go the other way, start in Kilkenny, but that is a longer drive for the first day with not much sleep, anyone have any suggestions? Is it better to go/tour Ireland one way over the other?

Presented By : AJAR ZigBee/IEEE 802.15.4 Origin Of Name ZigBee The domestic honeybee, a colonial insect, lives in a hive that contains a queen, a few male drones, and thousands of worker bees. The survival, success, and future of the colony is dependent upon continuous communication of vital information between every member of the colony. The technique that honey bees use to communicate new-found food sources to other members of the colony is referred to as the ZigBee Principle. Using this silent, but powerful communication system, whereby the bee dances in a zig- zag pattern, she is able to share information such as the location, distance, and direction of a newly discovered food source to her fellow colony members. Instinctively implementing the ZigBee Principle, bees around the world industriously sustain productive hives and foster future generations of colony members. What is ZigBee ZigBee is a Ad-hoc networking technology for LR-WPAN Based On IEEE 802.15.4 standard that defines the PHY and Mac Layers for ZigBee. Intended for 2.45 Ghz , 868 Mhz and 915 Mhz Band. Low in cost ,complexity & power consumption as compared to competing technologies. Intended to network inexpensive devices Data rates touch 250Kbps for 2.45Ghz ,40 Kbps 915Mhz and 20Kbps for 868Mhz band.

Some of the key protocol differentiators are: ZigBee: • Very low duty cycle, very long primary battery life, • Static and dynamic star and mesh networks, >65,000 nodes, with low latency available, • Ability to remain quiescent for long periods without communications, • Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum allows devices to sleep without the requirement for close synchronization. Bluetooth: • Moderate duty cycle, secondary battery lasts same as master, • Very high QoS and very low, guaranteed latency, • Quasi-static star network up to seven clients with ability to participate in more than one network, • Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum is extremely difficult to create extended networks without large synchronization cost. Basic Network Charachteristics • 65,536 network (client) nodes • Optimized for timing-critical applications – Network join time: 30 ms (typ) – Sleeping slave changing to active: 15 ms (typ) Network coordinator Full Function node – Active slave channel access Reduced Function node time: 15 ms (typ) Communications flow Virtual links ZigBee Layers Typical Implementation's What are the RAM/ROM requirements for the FFD and RFD MAC ? ZigBee requires a small amount of system resources substantially simplifying the process of designing wireless communications into products while reducing time to market and product cost. While still in the definition phase, the estimated MAC size is as follows: RFD = 12KB to 16KB FFD = 16KB to 20KB.

Area beach waters worst in Texas
CORPUS CHRISTI - Several area public beaches' water quality again ranked the worst in the state, according to an annual report released Wednesday.
Texas was ranked 18th in beach water quality nationally with 6 percent of its water samples exceeding state daily bacteria standards, according to a report by the Natural Resource Defense Council, a nonprofit environmental action group. Last year, 9 percent of Texas beaches exceeded bacteria standards.
The study covers 65 of Texas' 169 public coastal beaches that were tested for bacteria in 2008. The worst five beach areas in the state were from either Nueces or San Patricio counties.
Those included Ropes Park, the southwest area of JFK Causeway, Cole Park and Laguna Shores in Nueces County and Nueces Bay Causeway No. 4 in San Patricio County. Poenisch Park in Corpus Christi was seventh-worst.
Last year's study showed six beaches in the area that had among the worst water quality, including Cole Park, Ropes Park, Emerald Beach, Poenisch Park and Laguna Shores.
Joanna Mott, professor of biology at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, is developing a study along with the Coastal Bend Bays & Estuaries Program to research what is causing high bacteria levels in local trouble spots and what could be done. Much of the bacteria comes from runoff into certain areas.
"There's a few differences year to year, but it tends to be an ongoing trend," Mott said of trouble spots.
The test measures enterococcus, a fecal bacteria that can cause infections of the gastrointestinal system, ears, nose and throat. The limit is 104 colony-forming units, or viable bacteria, for every 100 milliliters of water.
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi researchers take two samples each time they test, which is weekly during swimming season. The average of those two samples is the number compared to the standard.
The state recommends advisory notices when samples exceed the standard, but it's up to local governments to post an advisory. People should not swim in an area under advisory. Information on advisories is available at Texasbeachwatch.com, and signs are posted at local beaches that were tested.
To protect themselves from bacteria, swimmers should avoid ingesting water and not swim with any open wounds, Mott said. Children, the elderly and those with compromised immune systems should take extra precaution.
"If you go to a beach, you can always check the Web site before you go. You can look at the sign," Mott said. "If it hasn't rained, it's pretty likely that there won't be a problem."
If an area exceeds the standard, researchers test daily until the number drops below 104 colony-forming units.
The most popular tourist beaches in Nueces County ranked low on the list, including Corpus Christi Beach (2 percent of 301 samples), McGee Beach (6 percent of 154 samples) and JP Luby Park (2 percent of 337 samples).

And Justice for All: John Ashcroft Crowed over the Arrest of Alleged 'Dirty Bomber' Jose Padilla. but Do the Feds Have a Case?
Isikoff, Michael, Newsweek
Byline: Michael Isikoff
Word spread quickly through the Charleston Naval Station last June: a big-time terrorist was headed for the brig. An entire wing of the base's military lockup was emptied out. And when the prisoner arrived--31-year-old Jose Padilla--he was placed in an isolation cell with a lamp burning 24 hours a day and a phalanx of guards around the clock. One inmate asked a guard what exactly Padilla had been charged with. "He's not charged with anything," the guard shot back. "We're just holding him." The prisoner was baffled. "How the hell can you do that?" he asked.
Quite easily, it turns out. Attorney General John Ashcroft publicly accused Padilla--a.k.a. Abdullah al-Muhajir--of being a Qaeda operative who was actively "plotting" to set off a radiological bomb when he flew into Chicago's O'Hare Airport from Zurich four months ago. Inside the U.S. intelligence community, sources tell NEWSWEEK, there were high-level doubts about Ashcroft's dramatic announcement of an ongoing plot from the very beginning. But those views received scant attention at the White House, officials say. After a hastily signed finding by President George W. Bush that he was an "enemy combatant," Padilla was removed from a New York jail and flown to the Charleston brig in early June. He's been held there incommunicado ever since--with no charges pending against him and no prospect of a trial or court hearing where the government's evidence can be tested. Last week authorities told NEWSWEEK they're not even interested in making a case: they want to force Padilla to tell what he knows about Al Qaeda. "If this guy thinks he might be there for 20 years with no recourse, he might just say, 'OK, let's talk'," said one administration official.
Padilla's case promises to be a flash point in a high-stakes constitutional showdown over the legal basis for much of the administration's war on terrorism. Acting under the direction of Solicitor General Theodore Olson, administration lawyers have staked out increasingly bold positions: under his wartime powers as commander in chief, they argue, President Bush has wide-ranging powers to secretly round up suspected terrorists and detain them indefinitely, including U. …

Saving information on a computer boosts human memory resources for new information
December 11, 2014
The simple act of saving something, such as a file on a computer, may improve our memory for the information we encounter next, according to new research published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. The research suggests that the act of saving helps to free up cognitive resources that can be used to remember new information.

Somerset, NJ March 29 – More than 900 hearing care professionals from across the country attended two recent conferences held by Oticon, Inc. that looked at the impact of hearing loss on cognitive function and the ability to stay fully engaged in everyday activities. The conferences, held in Phoenix and Orlando, previewed the new Oticon Agil hearing solution, a second generation wireless hearing instrument family specifically designed to take speech understanding in noise to a new level using significantly reduced cognitive effort.
Keynote speaker for the conferences was Dan Buettner, author of the best-selling The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer from the People Who've Lived the Longest. Buettner shared insights gains from his travels across the globe to uncover the best strategies for longevity found in places in the world where higher percentages of people enjoy remarkably long, full lives. Key among the strategies he discovered is the importance of maintaining social connectedness.
Buettner pointed out that hearing loss presents a major impediment to staying connected, citing studies showing that as people lose their hearing, they are more prone to depression. "It becomes harder to stay connected with family, with friends and you volunteer less," said Buettner. "If you're starting to lose your hearing, something you can do pro-actively right now is to get the technology you need so you can hear well. It stacks the deck in your favor for more connectivity."
The two-day conference featured a series of presentations on the latest research and trends data on the new generation of hearing aid users and their focus on maintaining their edge in social and business situations as they age. Discussions explored the new audiological concepts in Oticon's Agil Hearing Aid that are designed to preserve the natural characteristics of speech, while enriching the sound quality to enable the brain to use fewer of its resources for listening purposes. When speech understanding becomes more immediate, more cognitive energy is readily available to engage in day-to-day interactions. As a result, users should have more residual for other important tasks such as full social interaction.
Workshops gave practitioners an opportunity to experience first-hand the ways in which Agil's advanced technology could enable users to stay connected to modern life through today's high-tech communication and entertainment devices. Agil connects wirelessly and seamlessly to mobile phones, MP3 music players and a variety of other communication and entertainment devices.

The AP reported today that this week's terrible unemployment numbers were due to fallout from Sandy – the storm that hit the Northeast last week. On its face, the excuse holds merit. When digging into the data, it looks like AP over-interpreted a footnote thereby giving the Administration a pass on an awful report.
The Labor Department said applications increased by 78,000 because a large number of applications were filed in states damaged by the storm. People can claim unemployment benefits if their workplaces close and they don't get paid.
First to note in the report is that New York, the most populous state hit by the storm, saw its weekly figures drop by more than 2,200 claims. The reason for fewer claims given was that due to power outages caused by the Hurricane, the State's systems were unable to take claims from claimants. So while the storm may have caused in increase in unemployment in New York, it was not figured into the 78,000 increase due.
Next we find that the state with the largest increase in claims, Pennsylvania, did not list the storm as the reason. Only Connecticut and New Jersey pointed at Sandy for the reason they saw increased claims and of the total 78,000 increase, those two states were less than a tenth of the claims when added together.
What may have been mere oversight looks even more like white washing when you see one of the largest increases in joblessness being the swing state of Ohio. Suddenly, just after the election, Ohio reports more than 6,400 job losses in the .. wait for it.. automobile manufacturing industries . Oddly, the November 1 report just before the election showed a decrease in manufacturing layoffs in Ohio – a trend outlier when looked at broadly:
– October 25th report: Ohio sees increase of 1,936 claims due to layoff in the transportation and manufacturing industries
– November 1st report: Ohio reduces claims by 1,214 due to fewer layoffs in manufacturing
– November 8th: Ohio not mentioned
– November 15th: Ohio loses more than 6,400 jobs specifically in the auto manufacturing industry
Disregarding the strange blame, the report offers other unpleasant news: Year-over-year initial claims (seasonally adjusted) have risen by a staggering 47,000 claims. Last year at this time, only 392,000 initial claims for jobless benefits were filed, while this month more than 439,000 were given unemployment assistance.

Despite slowing job growth, strangely, the key unemployment rate fell .3% to 7.8% due to an unexpected upward 86,000 job revision by the Department of Labor.
Secretary Solis spent the morning defending the rosy unemployment rate that is based on questionable revisions. Upwardly revising public sector employment by tens of thousands of jobs in the report out just after her boss's dismal performance in the first presidential debate.
Solis even tried to suggest that the upward revisions were in private sector jobs, which would indicate a strengthening jobs picture, but was rebutted by her own department's statistics.
This is not the first report full of questionable statistics. As John Nolte at Big Government reported:
Finally, this is the second hinky looking report/revision from the Bureau of Labor Statistics in as many months. Just days ago, 400,000 jobs were "discovered"–almost the exact number Obama needed to have a record of creating more jobs on his watch than were lost.Payroll Survey shows slowing jobs growth
The question remains how many more hidden jobs will be found in the final report before the election due out on November 2nd.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics report released today showed that only 114,000 new jobs were created – a slowing from the 2012 average of 147,000 jobs per month and 153,000 jobs per month in 2011. The report offers little explanation for the statistical drop considering the lack of new jobs in September.
Underemployment, or those taking part-time or underpaying jobs due to economic conditions, rose from 8.0 million to 8.6 million.
The number of workers looking for work in the last 12 months, but unable to find it was unchanged from a year ago at 2.5 million.
The long-term unemployed numbers were unchanged with 4.8 million job-seekers unable to find work for 27 or more weeks. This distressing number makes up 40.1% of all unemployed persons.
Health care lead the way with 44,000 new jobs in September. Transportation and warehousing followed with 17,000 new jobs while the financial sector added 13,000.
Manufacturing led the way in job losses with 16,000 jobs being erased which leaves the sector with flat hiring since April.
The household survey respondents indicate that 873,000 new jobs were found in September. Since the civilian labor force grew only 418,000, that means 52% of all job gains were in the public sector. The economy needs strong private sector growth to heal.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics own site:
The payroll survey provides a highly reliable gauge of monthly change in nonfarm payroll employment. The household survey provides a broader picture of employment including agriculture and the self-employed
The level of disparity between the household and payroll surveys is irregular, but not inexplicable. The loose definition of employment in the household survey is likely the reason. While the payroll survey only counts those with paying jobs, the household survey counts "self employed, unpaid family workers, agriculture and related workers, private household workers, and workers absent without pay."[1]
Another reason for the oddity could be the dramatic difference in sampling errors. While the payroll survey covers businesses that account for about one-third of all employment, the household survey only covers 60,000 households which is an infinitesimally-small sample of all households in the nation.
While the employment survey needs a change of approximately 90,000 jobs to show statistical improvement, the household survey requires a month-over-month change of 436,000 jobs. Equivalence would therefore be expected if the payroll survey had increased by 180,000 jobs for parity.
An assumption would be that the large increase in the housing survey was due to low-quality jobs in agriculture and the non-paying family member sectors – hardly a reason to celebrate.

For Americans who still choose to get their news from the mainstream media corporations at ABC, NBC, and CBS, the news that 77% of the TARP bailout money has been repaid to the taxpayer seems like a marvelous revelation. Considering that that is about all the public has been told concerning the TARP taxpayer cash giveaway sweepstakes, the following information will come as quite a shocker. From the Special Inspector General for TARP (SIGTARP) report, we see just how the media is failing this country today: Keep in mind that this is the Quarterly Report to Congress dated Jan. 26, 2012. You may access the complete report at sigtarp.gov
According to the Jan 2012 SIGTARP report:
U.S. Taxpayers are stilled owed approximately $133 billion dollars.
As of the end of 2011, the Treasury has written off $4.2 billion and realized losses of $7.8 billion, of which the U.S. taxpayer will never see a penny of repayment, with more losses expected in the future.
While the TARP bailouts were enacted in 2008, TARP bailouts will in fact, continue through the year 2017. Treasury has been authorized to spend another $51 billion tax dollars on TARP supported housing programs and "certain securities markets."
As of Jan. 2012, there were "criminal convictions of 31 defendants, of whom 22 have been sentenced to prison, a reported total ofcriminal actions against 61 individuals, including 45 senior officers (CEOs, owners, founders, or senior executives) of their organizations,and another 18 civil cases naming…corporate or other legal entities as defendants.
Look who still owes the taxpayer a whopping $75 billion dollars according to the latest SIGTARP report: AIG still owes $50 billion while GM still owes $25 billion dollars. Ally Financial also still owes the U.S taxpayers another $12 billion dollars.
The U.S. Treasury also handed out TARP "loans" and then took stock as a form of payment. The G.M. stock held by the Treasury ( thus the taxpayers) was currently trading at $24.72 on Thursday of last week. The break even price needed to recover the taxpayers cost of that part of the G.M. Bailout? $53.98 a share, or more than double it's current value!
The bottom line: The taxpayers have lost tens of billions of TARP dollars already through fraud and other criminal methods of theft, and there is a lot more to come. Check out the above-linked SIGTARP report. While the media refuses to report on this massive taxpayer fraud, there are some names of those already convicted right in that report. AIG and the "Largest Automaker in the world" G.M. as Obama and company like to brag about still owes the taxpayer $25 billion dollars, and AIG owes them double that! One last fact: TARP was passed in 2008, when Nancy Pelosi was running the U.S. House of Representatives and Harry Reid was running the U.S. Senate. Yes they are both Liberal Democrats.
Other fast facts about TARP from the NY Times:
The final tally in the House was 263 to 171, with 91 Republicans joining 172 Democrats in favor. That was a wider bipartisan majority than vote-counters in both parties had expected, completing a remarkable turnabout from Monday, when the House defeated an earlier version of the bill by 228 to 205.
In the end, 33 [ Senate] Democrats and 24 Republicans who had voted no on Monday switched sides on Friday to support the plan. Both Mr. Obama and his Republican rival, Senator John McCain, voted for the measure when the Senate approved it on Wednesday, and both hailed Friday's outcome.
The financial markets, however, were not enthusiastic. Already weighed down by another round of bleak economic data, including a report showing that 159,000 jobs were lost in September. (emphasis added) [While current President Barack Obama constantly states that the U.S was bleeding 700,000 jobs a month when he took office, in late 2008 it was in fact, 159,000 jobs lost for the entire month of September, 2008, just before he took office. Just last week, according to CNN Money, we lost another 377,000 jobs!]

The National Nuclear Security Administration announced Friday that it has completed two milestones toward production of early plutonium oxide feedstock for its Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication Facility located at the Savannah River Site.
In its second year in production, NNSA exceeded the fiscal year 2012 goal of 200 kilograms of plutonium oxide production by disassembling nuclear weapons pits and converting them into plutonium oxide at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
NNSA also initiated operations at H-Canyon and HB-Line at SRS to begin plutonium oxide production. The production at both LANL and SRS provides the initial feedstock for the MOX facility and demonstrates the first steps toward permanent plutonium disposition.
SRSs H-Canyon chemical separations area was reassigned to produce plutonium oxide for three years in October 2011. H-Canyon is expected to provide significant amounts of feedstock, much of which is said to be coming from nonpit plutonium already in storage at SRS.
The progress achieved at LANL and SRS in support of plutonium disposition demonstrates the benefits of utilizing existing facilities in support of NNSAs efforts to eliminate surplus weapons plutonium, said NNSA Administrator Thomas DAgostino. Feedstock for the MOX facility represents a critical component of the U.S. plutonium disposition strategy and will enable the United States to meet international nonproliferation commitments while advancing President Barack Obamas goal of permanently reducing the number of nuclear weapons across the globe.
Following a rigorous process, Shaw AREVA MOX Services, the prime contractor for the design, construction and start-up of the MOX facility, has officially accepted a total of 442 kilograms of plutonium oxide from LANL for the MOX facility.
The MOX nonproliferation program is designed to dispose of 34 metric tons of surplus plutonium by blending it with uranium. This will make nuclear fuel suitable for use in commercial power reactors.
The governments original plan included building a pit disassembly plant near the MOX compound but later opted to use several existing facilities to process the plutonium into oxide form.
Savannah River Nuclear Solutions initiated repackaging and dissolution of the non-pit plutonium material in H-Canyon this month, marking a significant milestone for H-Canyons efforts to support the mission to produce early feed for the MOX facility.

Dodoma — CHIEF Secretary, Ambassador Ombeni Sefue has urged exhibitors at the Nane Nane exhibitions to ensure that farmers get technical information are kept in touch.
Amb. Sefue said this shortly after he had made a tour of the pavilions on Thursday evening here, where he hailed organizers for wonderful pavilions.
He noted that farmers would wish to get information and ask question anytime even after the Nane Nane has passed and thus they should be kept in touch.
"Exhibitors should ensure that farmers and livestock keepers are provided with contacts just in case they want to ask for clarification on some matters after these exhibitions have ended," he said.
Amb. Sefue added that the fact that some exhibitors were selling out seeds to farmers, they should also make sure that they are available when farmers want to get some clarification when they want to plant.
He hailed this year's theme which states that "Big Results Now: Agriculture and Livestock is Business" adding that the exhibitions have vividly shown that the two sectors are a real business and can pull people out of poverty.
He emphasised on the need to go modern when it comes to farming or livestock keeping as way of increasing value and ensuring profit.
