Greenspan denies his hands-off policy caused credit meltdown
Former Fed chief says crisis was not his 'oops' moment
Thursday 08 April 2010
Alan Greenspan, former chairman of the Federal Reserve, sprayed blame for the credit crisis on rating agencies, government-sponsored mortgage finance companies and lax law enforcement agencies yesterday in testimony to a commission of inquiry, but he admitted no specific mistakes himself.
He insisted the Fed had done what it could to warn of the dangers of sub-prime mortgage borrowing and an overheating US housing market, and that there was no substance to the claims that he inflated a bubble by keeping US interest rates too low for too long. Instead, he told the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commssion (FCIC) that they would find more answers by examining how the government-sponsored mortgage finance companies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, bought up almost 40 per cent of all sub-prime mortgages issued in the mid-2000s.
And he rowed back on his own comments of 18 months ago, when he had told a Congressional panel that the credit crisis exposed a "flaw in the model I perceived is the critical functioning structure that defines how the world works".
In testy exchanges yesterday, Mr Greenspan said the "flaw" was in the financial models that Wall Street, regulators and the academic community had been using, which led to everyone underestimating the riskiness of mortgage investments.
"The flaw in the system that I acknowledged was an inability to fully understand risks... that were as yet untested. We didn't see what those risks were until they unwound at the end of the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy. We were under-capitalising the banking system for perhaps 40 or 50 years, and that has to be corrected."
Modelled on the bipartisan 9/11 Commission, the FCIC has been asked to report on 22 factors in the onset of the crisis, from fraud and due diligence failings to monetary policy and regulation. Recommendations are due on the President's desk by 15 December.
Mr Greenspan, the chairman of the Federal Reserve until 2006, had been one of the most public advocates of free market capitalism and reducing regulation, and his record has come under attack from critics who claim the Fed did not use its powers to clamp down on unscrupulous lending. Bad mortgages, particularly to sub-prime borrowers, were sliced and diced by Wall Street into credit derivatives that were sold across the world and which ultimately infected the entire financial system. The securities were often mistakenly labelled by credit rating agencies as super-safe.
The former chairman said yesterday that high demand for these securities was the most important aspect of the crisis. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, with a government mandate to promote home ownership, were big early buyers of sub-prime mortgages, he said, before demand from European banks kicked in.
Phil Angelides, the chairman of the FCIC, challenged Mr Greenspan's claims that the Fed had warned repeatedly about unscrupulous lending practices, and even issued guidance aimed at improving the information available about the quality of mortgages going into the Wall Street machine.
Guidance should have been followed up by the introduction of enforceable rules, Mr Angelides said. "You could have, you should have and you didn't." And he asked Mr Greenspan if this failure went into the category of "oops".
"When you have been in government for 21 years, the issue of retrospectively asking what you would have done differently is a futile activity," Mr Greenspan responded. "In the business I was in, I was right 70 per cent of the time, I was wrong 30 per cent of the time. There are an awful lot of mistakes in 21 years."

"My Boyfriend and I stayed on 6/4 for four days. Upon arrival we met Kurt who was very nice and willing to help with anything needed. The Beach house was beautiful and stocked full of anything you needed. The lake was calm and crystal clear. Great for swimming and would be great for kids its very shallow and doesn't get deep for a long way out. We used the paddle boat that also had a motor on it for us lazy people. :-) We would recommend this and is a 5 star!!"Guest: Anonymous Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: June 8, 2015View listing
"Very nice cabin . Well stocked with all u need including fans!!"Guest: Bill A. Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: July 12, 2015View listing
"We arrived to a nice welcome of wine and chocolates. Our vacation just got better from there. This was a great cabin for our family even with one section not having air conditioning. It afforded us to have our own space and also come together. We enjoyed evenings by the fire pit and played games on the screened porch. Laura, the property manager, provided many things that equipped this cabin with personal touches. We were glad we rented a boat. This allowed us to cruise the many lakes connected to Lake Margaret and enjoyed many beautiful sunsets. The many stairs to the water might make it difficult for those with mobile disabilities and very small children. Thanks for sharing this with us!"Guest: Annie and Jim Date of Stay: August 2015 Review Submitted: August 20, 2015View listing
"We rented the main house and boat house for 4 days while we were in the area for a family wedding. The house is huge! I looked it up on zillow and it's like 7000 sq ft. Immaculate condition. It was much nicer than we were expecting based on pictures. The master bedroom is amazing. They have two of anything you could possibly need in the kitchen. Yard is open and very clean. It was too cold for us to swim, but beach would be perfect for swimming with a nice sandy beach and shallow water for young children to play in. Owners must be super techs because every room has a nice TV set up. I give this 5 stars without hesitation. Frankly I think it's pricing is under the market value of what they could be charging for a place like this. The only cons were that there is a massive deck that is under construction. It's was still very "clean" looking outside even though deck was clearly being built. Also there was a square hole in the basement that had plywood over it in the basement. I think they might have removed an in ground hot tube or something. Anyway, it was the only thing that made the basement seem unfinished. I perceived it as dangerous to walk on because the boards seemed springy and I was a littled worried about someone falling through. Owners are very straight forward and business like in their interactions with you. Lastly, while they didn't charge us for anything, the owners wanted a credit card on file for unlimited damages rather than taking a traditional deposit. I thought this was obsessive, but the owners were very straight forward and responsive to deal with. They don't leave you to wonder about anything. You will know exactly what your responsibilities are and what theirs are. All in all a wonderful experience and beautiful property."Guest: Alaska13dude Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: October 3, 2014View listing

Lemme tell you about this girl named Roxi.
One day, I was looking through a group stack in my inbox. Can't even remember the name of the group but oh well, and I stumbled across an image of a fox that could summon lightning and loved sweetcorn. Deciding that this chick and her art had uncontrollable levels of coolness, I blurted out that I wanted to do a trade with her and I wanted to do one NOW. Roxi didn't really know what to make of this crazy British girl that had appeared out of nowhere with this orange and white sparkledog, but she humoured me.
There are a ton of words to describe her: awesome, funny or just nuts. She's had her rough moments but she's such a terrific human being that you can't help but admire her. I'm very lucky to have found her and have her as a friend. I'm lucky to have heard her voice, listened to her jokes and her cute little 'oh, stop it u' whenever I say something nice about her. She's my bff and always will be.

HOUSTON by KHOU 11 News and www.khou.com - The suspected gunman in the Lone Star Colleges North Harris campus shooting was arrested in Plano overnight by the Gulf Coast Violent Offenders Task Force and returned to Houston Friday morning.
Trey Foster, 22, arrived back in Houston around 6:30 a.m. to face aggravated assault charges.
Three people were wounded Tuesday after Foster opened fire during an argument with another man. He fled town after that, while authorities scrambled to try and find out what exactly happened. Immediately following the shooting, Fosters 22-year-old friend, Carlton Berry, was charged with the crime, but that may have been a mistake.
Berry, one of the shooting victims,told his side of the story while recovering at Ben Taub Hospital.
Berry said he and Foster were walking on campus when a man named Jody Neal bumped into Foster. Foster and Neal argued briefly, then went their separate ways.
Thirty minutes later, Foster, Berry and Neal crossed paths again at the doorway of the Academic Building and the argument flared up again. That is when Foster pulled out a gun and started shooting, according to court documents.
Neal was shot in the abdomen and the leg. He ran to the library and collapsed.
Bobby Cliburn, a 69-year-old campus maintenance man, was an innocent bystander. He was shot in the leg.
He just started shooting, said Cliburn. He didnt waste any time.
Before he had a chance to duck for cover, it was too late.
I tried to duck in behind one of the columns and he got me before I could do it, Cliburn said.
Berry was hit in the hip. Investigators initially said Berry shot himself in the buttocks when he tried to put his gun back in his pants, but there was no gun found on the scene.
Neal identified Berry as the shooter when he was being carried past him on a stretcher.
After getting Berrys side of the story, authorities showed Neal a photo lineup with Foster on Wednesday. Neal then identified Foster as the gunman, saying he made a mistake when he identified Berry earlier because Foster and Berry were both wearing red shirts.
Once everyone has time to reflect back and review photo spreads and remember what has occurred and review any photos or video surveillance, they are much better able to determine what they saw and who they saw do it, said Alison Baimbridge, Harris County Assistant District Attorney.
The task force tracked Foster to Plano and took him into custody. KHOU 11 News was on the scene when the handcuffed suspect returned. The gun was also recovered, but the only thing missing was a full explanation from Foster about what happened.
When KHOU 11 News asked about Tuesdays shooting, Foster only responded with What happened?
When asked if he knew Carlton Berry, Foster said, yes I do.
Berrys mother,Michelle Felix, is both relieved and furious now that evidence shows her son was not the gunman, after all.
My son has been blasted over 50 states. It is very, very devastating how they has taken my child and just made him out as this monster, Felix said.
Meantime, Fosters grandma is worried sick about her grandson. Mary Bingley said Foster went to Lone Star College Tuesday to check on getting his barbers license. No one had any idea that outing would capture the attention of the nation.
Records show Foster has a criminal history that includes charges of resisting arrest and possession of a prohibited weapon. There is no word yet on whether charges against Berry will be dropped.

L. R. M NAIR TUBULAR KNITTED DIAPER Filed Aug. 5, 1953 Fatented Dec. 1, 1936 UNlTED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.
This invention relates to diapers and particularly to certain improvements on the tubular knitted diaper which forms the subject-matter of Patent No. 1,329,619, granted to me on February 3, 1920. In this patent, a diaper is described which is composed of elastic knit goods and which has two thicknesses of knit material without seams, buttons or buttonholes or raw edges and which is narrowed or purled at each end so that the diaper when folded and in place yieldingly or elastically fits around the waist of the child.
The general object of this present invention is to improve upon the diaper disclosed in said patent by also narrowing the diaper at the middle, by purling the middle of the diaper so that the diaper will have a better shape conforming to the line of the babys body and so that superfluous fullness between the babys legs will be eliminated and to secure certain other advantages as will be more fully brought out hereinafter.
In the drawing:-
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing my improved diaper in applied position.
Figure 2 is a face view of the diaper laid fiat out.
Figure 3 is a section on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Referring to this drawing, l0 designates the tubular body of the diaper which is composed of knitted soft and fleecy material and which has, generally speaking, a rectangular shape. The diaper is narrowed at the ends by changing the stitch so that the diaper has gradually contracted end portions II, the extremity of these end portions being bound by stitching I3. The middle portion of the diaper for a distance on each side of the middle is also contracted as at I2, by
'changing the stitch so that this middle portion is narrower than the portions on each side of the middle portion.
The diaper is used, as illustrated in Figure 1, where safety pins I4 are shown pinned through the ends of the diaper to hold the diaper in place. Safety pins I5 may also be used to attach the stockings to the diaper and the edges of the body ID of the diaper may also be pinned together below the waist and along the sides of the legs by 50 the pins l6.
To put on the diaper, the diaper is laid fiat, thus forming two thicknesses of material and the middle or narrowed portion of the body I0 is placed between the legs of the baby and the ends 55 of the diaper then drawn upward to the waist line where they are brought together, overlapped and pinned, as described.
The body of the diaper is formed of soft knitted cotton and is, therefore, elastic and hence will snugly fit the body and legs of the infant and 5 still allow complete freedom of movement without binding. I
The advantages obtained by narrowing the middle portion of the diaper are as follows: The garment has a better shape and conforms to the 10 lines of thebabys body; the narrowing of the diaper at that portion which comes between the babys legs eliminates superfluous fullness which is not desirable while still allowing plenty of full-, ness around the babys hips where it is needed; 16 the narrowing of the knitted diaper produced by a change of stitch shapes the diaper to the babys form without any seams, darts or raw edges to chafe or irritate; the fabric produced by this change of stitch and the consequent narrowing of the diaper at its middle makes the diaper more elastic and causes it to come back into shape and assures the retention of its shape after repeated laundering and sterilizing. By eliminating the excess material between the baby's legs, it not only adds to the babys comfort but eliminates one of the causes of bowlegs. It further eliminates all wrinkles and folds which would otherwise tend to cause chafing and irritation. The diaper is form-fitting and adjusts itself to every 30 movement of the baby's body. Furthermore, the fabric produced by this change of stitch and consequent narrowing of the diaper between the babys legs is more absorbent than the wider part of the diaper which covers the stomach and hips 35 and because of the change of stitch and narrowing of the diaper at its middle, the seat of the diaper is longer wearing.
By the term purling as referring to the narrowed parts II and 12, it is to be understood that 40 I refer to any change of stitch which will cause a narrowing of the diaper at these points. In actual practice, the stitch that forms the narrow portion of the garment, whether at the ends, or at the middle, is what is known as a plain rib stitch while the stitch which forms the wide part of the garment, is what is known as a tuck stitch. Obviously I do not wish to be limited to any particular form of stitch for forming the wide and narrow portions of the garment.
I claim:
1. A diaper made of tubular knitted fleecy fabric, the diaper having a generally rectangular form of two thicknesses when laid flat, the ends of the diaper being narrowed to provide elastic 'formed into a continuous piece of tubular form or substantially rectangular shape and of two thicknesses when laid flat and which is adapted to form an iniants diaper when placed and folded between its legs, the ends of the diaper being contracted to fit snugly yet resiliently about the waist of the infant and the middle portion of the diaper being similarly contracted to provide an elastic portion to fit between the infant's legs, said middle portion of the diaper being of denser material-content than the adjoining portions to provide an absorbent area between the infant's legs.v
3. A diaper made of knitted material and formed into a continuous piece of tubular form or and being formed by close-knitting of the material. a
4. A form-fitting diaper made of a single piece of tubular knitted material of substantially rectangular shape and of double thickness when laid flat, the ends and middle portion of the diaper being purled to form an elastic waist-band and a thickened absorbent area between the infant's legs, respectively.

By Juan Montoya
You don't have to go too far.
If you stop in El Ranchito or in other small towns near Harlingen, you will probably hear the local political activists talking about the fact that Pct. 4 commissioner Dan Sanchez wants to be county judge.
He can't openly come out and say it, mind you. But ever since the court was considering appointing a judge when Carlos Cascos left to become Texas Secretary of State, Sanchez has been making noises about getting the post. His supporters held spontaneous (?) rallies while the court was considering the appointment meant to spread the word they should appoint Sanchez.
He is now at the beginning of his second four-year term as Pct. 4 commissioner.
You might call it a sleeper candidacy.
However, there's a slight problem.
Article XVI, section 65 of the Texas Constitution provides that certain elected district, county, and precinct officers who run for another "office of profit or trust under the laws of this State or the United States" more than a year before the expiration of their current term of office automatically resign from office.
So, if Sanchez (or for that matter any other commissioner) wants to run for judge, they will have to resign their position when they announce publicly that they are running.
When the commissioners appointed County Administrator Pete Sepulveda to replace Cascos until the next general election (Nov. 2016), that meant that either Sepulveda would announce to run for the position, or another candidate, Republican or Democrat, might try to get their party's nomination.
"Dan (Sanchez) is on the horns of a dilema," said an El Ranchito resident. "He can stay as commissioner for another three years, or he has to resign to announce for four as county judge and take his chances in a countywide race."
Regardless of what Sanchez does, there are already grumblings about the fact that a Sanchez candidacy is an open secret in some quarters.
"Is some official going to take the bull by the horns and call him on it?" asked a Brownsville resident. "He's been overheard telling people he's going to run. It's time he is called on the question and tell people what he's going to do."
Investigators from the Texas Department of Public Safety said Rodriguez died at the hospital as a result of the shooting.
News reports indicate that the efforts to keep the public away from the facts in the case started at the very onset. As part of the investigation after the shooting, police blocked off traffic from entering the area — near the Subway restaurant and the Brownsville Public Utilities Board sewer plant — for the better part of that Friday morning.
All DA Luis Saenz and BPD's Lt. Gerard Serrato and Commander Juan Hernandez said was that they could confirm that an on-duty Brownsville police officer had shot and killed someone earlier in the day.
Authorities said the officer involved in the shooting was unharmed.
However, their first statements that the officer had "shot and killed an aggravated robbery suspect between 1 and 2 a.m" were not confirmed at the press conference.
The changing stories and the fact that police have not said that Rodriguez was unarmed when he was shot have raised questions from his relatives.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas called on European and other
Western firms on Wednesday to stop violating international law by working in
West Bank settlements.Abbas's call came during a meeting in Brussels
with European Council President Herman Van Rompuy, a former Belgian prime
minister.The PA leader is currently on a tour of several EU countries to
urge their governments to activate regulations against settlements and Jewish
neighborhoods of east Jerusalem.As Abbas worked against West Bank
settlements, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State John
Kerry met in Rome for an extended meeting that lasted for over seven
hours.The renewed Israeli-Palestinian peace talks were one of the key
issues the two men discussed.Before their meeting, Kerry thanked both
Netanyahu and Abbas for their courage and for the risks they had taken to
rekindle the negotiations, which had been largely dormant since December
2008.Israeli and Palestinian negotiators have met 13 times since the end
of July, including a meeting that took place on Wednesday, Kerry said. He added
that US envoy Martin Indyk was in Jerusalem to facilitate those
talks.Israeli officials have spoken of their frustrations over Abbas's
European tour to urge countries to act diplomatically against Israel,
particularly in ways that prejudge the outcome of the
negotiations.Following the meeting with Rompuy, Abbas told reporters
that his push for sanctions was not directed against Israel."We want to
live alongside Israel and build bridges of peace with it," Abbas said. "This call
is directed against settlements that were established on the territories of the
occupied State of Palestine and its capital, Jerusalem, after 1967."In
July, the EU issued guidelines that clarified its policy against providing
grants, prizes or loans to Israeli entities, including nonprofit and educational
institutions, that operate over the pre-1967 lines.Abbas hailed the EU's
policy toward settlements and Israeli "practices in occupied Palestinian
territories, including east Jerusalem, the capital of our state,
Palestine."The Palestinians, he said, want Jerusalem to be open to
followers of the three religions – Islam, Christianity and Judaism."The
establishment of an independent Palestinian state with east Jerusalem as its
capital on the 1967 borders that would live in security and peace and stability
next to Israel is the guarantee for world peace and security," Abbas
stressed.He said that he was working with US President Barack Obama and
Kerry to ensure the success of the current peace talks with
Israel."These talks are backed by the Arabs and the EU," Abbas added.
"Failure of the talks would have serious consequences for the future of peace
and stability in our region and the world."He said that despite
"hindrances facing the talks as a result of the policies of the Israeli
government and its measures on the ground, as well as [the] practices of [the]
settlers and the strangling of the Palestinian economy," the Palestinians would
remain committed to the nine-month timeline Kerry had set for the
negotiations.In a related development, the London-based Al-Quds al-Arabi
newspaper reported Wednesday that the PA leadership had asked France to take
action against French nationals living in settlements.The paper said the
PA had informed France that hundreds of French citizens currently lived in
"illegal" settlements. The PA leadership demanded that the French government
either strip these French nationals of their citizenship or put pressure on them
to leave the settlements, the paper said.According to the report, the PA
leadership and prominent Fatah officials have also prepared a list of some 500
international companies that do business with settlements. The Palestinians
intend to send warnings to these companies about their "illegal" work in the
settlements, the paper reported.Israel has insisted that it has a right
to continue to build in West Bank settlements and that Israel would retain
populated areas of Judea and Samaria in any final-status
agreement.Palestinians, however, have insisted that Israel must
relinquish all territory over the pre- 1967 lines.In his public
statement before the Kerry meeting, Netanyahu did not speak of West Bank
settlements, but addressed what he considers the need for Palestinians to
recognize Israel's security needs and its identity as the homeland for the
Jewish people."Peace is premised on mutual recognition of two states for
two peoples – the Palestinian state for the Palestinian people mirrored by the
Jewish state for the Jewish people," Netanyahu said. "I think that's fundamental
for any peace, but equally it must be a peace that – as President Obama has said
– a peace that Israel can defend by itself, for itself against any conceivable
threat. I think these are the two twin pillars of peace.

Incognito Viognier 2012
Member Review by tabednar:
Lemon and apple on the nose. Full-bodied with a sweet beginning that subtlety transforms in a more oakey type chardonnay profile. Well balanced, especially using 5 different grape variety, and a please for the taste profile. Unique and worth at try at this price. Enjoy.Add winemaker's notes
Rising from the resurgent Lodi Appellation, Michael~David Winery produces some of the finest award-winning varietal wines in California. We are six generations of winegrowers specializing in hand-crafted Rhone varietals as well as Lodi's famous Old Vine Zinfandels. Our tasting room, café and farmer's fresh market are located just 30 minutes south of Sacramento and one hour east of the Bay Area. Enjoy!

Lemon and apple on the nose. Full-bodied with a sweet beginning that subtlety transforms in a more oakey type chardonnay profile. Well balanced, especially using 5 different grape variety, and a please for the taste profile. Unique and worth at try at this price. Enjoy.
Wine may be a bit over-aged. Musty nose with faint fruit and mineral. Off-dry with balance toward a pseudo-sweet taste. Fruit of pear and yellow apple with slightly bitter nuts. Finishes of bitter nuts. Body medium plus, slightly slick in the mouth, acid medium.

External Reviews for Incognito Viognier
Do you like peaches and cream? Look no further than this elegant, lightly sweet liquid delicacy. A full, fruity mouthfeel is blanketed by a buttery, velvety texture of peaches and honeysuckle. This wine is perfect for both formal and informal occasions - with your Easter ham or turkey, at wedding parties, or served with hors d'oeuvres for summertime patio wine tastings. I also recommend it with spicy Indian food accompanied by chutney.
The wine that invoked the name! Originally bottled as a Roussanne in 1999, our Rhone-style white was later found to be a clone of Viognier from the Neuf du Pape region after extensive DNA testing at U.C. Davis. Ripe and crammed with fruit, the Incognito White has aromatics of honey, citrus, ripe apricots and summer melons. This full-bodied wine is pure and unoaked, leaving only the expressions of the blended varietals to show.
Michael David makes this white wine, a blend of mostly Viognier and Chardonnay, with smaller amounts of Malvasia Bianca, Roussanne, Sauvignon Blanc and Symphony, steel-tank fermented and aged, a deliciously bright and perfumed, light-drinking, golden wine with a tropical fruit nose and ripe peach and melon as it goes down.
A strong effort, the 2006 Incognito Viognier exhibits plenty of apricot and melony fruit as well as a hint of exotic tropical fruits. With excellent purity, and surprising size and definition, it represents a very good value for Viognier. It should be consumed over the next year. Some super values emerge from this Lodi winery.
Easy to like for its fruity, flowery flavors and crisp acidity, this wine has extra layers of complexity. It feels as rich as honey in the mouth, yet is fundamentally dry. Nice with poultry, veal or fish with a fruity salsa topping.
The 2005 and 2006 Incognito Viognier are nearly equal in quality. The 2006 is more fruit-forward. The wine possesses Viognier's telltale peach and honeysuckle characteristics, and is meant to be consumed during its first 1-2 years of life.
Rich, very exotic, decadently drinkable, like an entire fruit store in a glass. Peaches, pears, pineapples, nectarines, mangoes, papayas, they flood the palate, with just enough acidity for balance, and a honeyed finish. Made with a dash of Roussanne and Marsanne.

Eleven months after discovering a brutal double murder in a sleepy Northumbrian town, Detective Chief Inspector Kate Daniels is still haunted by her failure to solve the case. Then the brutal killing of a man on Newcastle's Quayside gives Daniels another chance to get it right, and her first case as Senior Investigating Officer. When Daniels recognises the corpse, but fails to disclose the fact, her personal life swerves dangerously into her professional life. But much worse, she is now being watched. As Daniels steps closer to finding a killer, a killer is only a breath away from claiming his next victim...

Forbes.com reports that an experiment conducted by UCLA
scientists showed that giving rats a fructose solution in place of regular
drinking water were much slower at completing a maze than mice that didn't
consume the fructose. The fructose interfered with the brain cells' ability to
"talk" to one another, meaning that they couldn't think quickly or clearly.
HFCS could cause your memory and
recall abilities to tank, too, just like the rats'. Yikes!
But there is good
news. The scientists also gave one group of rats a diet rich on omega-3 fatty
acids. These rats found their way through the maze quickly. The researchers
have also concluded that an omega-3-heavy diet can counteract the mind-numbing
effects of a diet high in HFCS.

Jamie, Unchained
As the title character in Django Unchained, Quentin Tarantino's edgy retelling of a slave-era Western, Foxx found himself in the center of the most talked-about film of the year. Foxx wasn't recognized with an Oscar nomination for his role as a freed slave hell-bent on rescuing his kidnapped wife, and many felt he was robbed.

Candidate Interview ReviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
- Declined OfferNeutral ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GE Aviation (Cincinnati, OH).
Two 30 minute interviews-one with HR and one with program leads. The interview with HR was a typical GE interview, all behavioral based questions. The second however, was with the three program leads. One barley stayed awake. The executive interviewer was on his phone half of the interview and asked inappropriate, illegal, and (possibly) discriminatory questions. The last was clearly uncomfortable with what her boss was asking me but went along anyway. I loved the people I worked with and the culture of GE but that interview went against everything GE stands for and made me question why these people are in charge of selecting candidates.

For some reason they want you there all day (guess they can't manage getting everyone in one place at one time). They set up an ALL day interview. I explained I currently work and could not take a full day (I have zero vacation or sick days) and was told they would work with me Then, a couple days later I got an general email stating I was not going to be considered. REALLY? Because I could not sit with folks for an entire day I am no longer what you are looking for? Anyway...Glad I DODGED this bullet and this unprofessional group of people.

Charlie Sheen's Porn Star Party Friend Kacey Jordan Attempts Suicide
Sheen's porn star pal Kacey Jordan, with whom he allegedly partied during the January binge that culminated in a trip to the hospital, began tweeting messages that indicated a very disturbed mental state prior to her admission at Chicago's Northwestern Memorial Hospital today, according to RadarOnline.com.
Jordan, whose real name is Courtney Roskop, wrote, "I just snorted a fat line," followed by admissions "i've over done it... the more i do...i keep passing out... i just pray i wake up each time" and "i keep fainting. i guess i'll have to do more and see what that does."
The XXX star, who had an abortion last month after allegedly becoming pregnant with Sheen's child, wrote, "i took a bunch of pills...drank a hotel size bottle of jack... stumbled to the bathroom to weigh myself.........86 lbs," following which hotel staff allegedly raided her room.
As to her reasons for the disturbing behavior, Jordan described, "those 16 hours i was with charlie sheen... messed me up... i can't get that image out of my head... i think i keep trying to feel his pain."
According to TMZ, when police arrived on the scene, Jordan was surrounded by pill bottles and broken glass and even tried to cut herself with a corkscrew when authorities tried to speak to her about her seemingly suicidal messages.
Despite her brush with death, Jordan seemed to be back to her old, er, tricks, soon enough, tweeting, "i will be better in no time...I'm Soooo bored in this hospital bed! I wanna have someone save me... And kpuff doesn't have underwear?!!"

Publicity stunt, and we're all buying it. Ozzy had the wildest things printed and said about him in the early '80s, when 30 years later, he & Sharon are still laughing.
