FinCEN's Anti-Money Laundering Rule: What You Need to Know
If you believe that only banks and broker-dealers need to worry about the anti-money laundering laws… well, the world's changing and there are proposed regulations you need to consider. Under the proposed rule, if your firm is registered or should be registered with the SEC, you and your firm will be subject to the recordkeeping, reporting, and anti-money laundering laws that banks and other financial institutions have been subject to for years as part of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA).
This proposal has been in the headlines more and more of late as a key step in the global war against terrorism. Undoubtedly, you feel there is little likelihood of your firm aiding and abetting a terrorist organization; nonetheless, with the expansion of who is covered in the new regulations, it's important that your firm puts a program in place—beyond just know-your-client ("KYC") best practices.

Vacuum is excellent for the price. We use it in our office and for vacancy cleanings at our apartment complexes. Not a bad little unit for the price. Only complaint is that you can't store the tool onboard. Very lightweight and easy to carry. Good purchase.

Excellent accessories for your Dyson vacuum (or any other vac if compatible.) My favorite attachments are the soft flat for bed use and the fan blade cleaner. The bed tool is excellent for freshening up a clean bed for guests, and crumbs on your own bed, as well as all furniture.

This is my second Dyson vacuum, one for the 1st floor and one for the 2nd floor. The tools, on this particular model, are awesome! They never tangle feature is great as both my daughter and I have long hair. It is amazing for pet hair as well. This unit is very light- weight and easily maneuvers through my livingroom. My hardwood floor are cleaned just as well as my area rug. I took a chance on this refurb. but I have nothing but great things to say. Thank you!

The vacuum is powerful, but the accessories feel like cheap plastic and the floor attachment for hardwood and carpet seems to scrape across the hardwood. It needs more brushes to separate the plastic from the floor. The hose comes apart from the metal shaft and has to be pushed and turned to stay in place. It is lightweight and easy to move around the room, I just wish they had invested a little more in the quality of the attachments.

This is very easy to use and very versatile. Since we can reduce the length of the main pole, my 3 year old took it from me the first day and vacuumed the entire house (carpet, tile and couches). The accessories are easy to use and change. The only con that it is a little hard to empty the canister with just depressing the button. I would definitely recommend!
In a messy bathroom, cleaning the floors is often the biggest and least appealing chore. Clean floors are a very important part of a clean bathroom, whether you have tile, laminate or bamboo flooring. It always helps to use shortcuts when cleaning, especially if they are effective. Use these floor care tips to get your bathroom clean without the hassle of old-fashioned techniques. Floor Care Tips: Choose machine-washable bathroom rugs. Dress your floors in plush bathroom rugs that can be thrown in the washer on a regular basis. Read More

Just as predicted last week, Google has filed its S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public offering of its common stock, in an IPO that could maybe value Google, Inc. at as much as $20 billion.
After three consecutive profitable years, the time has come.
The IPO that will rank as one of the largest ever - Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse First Boston are the lead underwriters.
According to reports, it will sell some of the stock by "Dutch auction" and those subscribing will doubtless come from among the hundreds of millions of Web users who log Google's legendary 200 million-plus searches a day.
The UK's BBC is reporting that the offering could value the firm at $20bn or more, "once further details of the deal are set out."
Reuters already reported on Tuesday that the Chief Executive and Chairman of Google search rival Yahoo, Terry Semel, "shrugged off the possibility that a ... public offering by search engine operator Google Inc. would hurt the older Web company."
Semel, speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a Milken Institute conference in Los Angeles, is quoted as having said:
"Yahoo is a company that has always had good competitors and Google will be a good competitor. There is plenty of room for Yahoo to thrive and for Google to thrive."
Ironically, Yahoo has an estimated 5% stake in Google.
In its S-1 statement, the company's founders include a letter, reproduced here in full. Its aim is to give the flavor of the kind of annual letter Sergey Brin and Larry Page will be writing to its new shareholders once the IPO is complete:
Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one. Throughout Google's evolution as a privately held company, we have managed Google differently. We have also emphasized an atmosphere of creativity and challenge, which has helped us provide unbiased, accurate and free access to information for those who rely on us around the world.
Now the time has come for the company to move to public ownership. This change will bring important benefits for our employees, for our present and future shareholders, for our customers, and most of all for Google users. But the standard structure of public ownership may jeopardize the independence and focused objectivity that have been most important in Google's past success and that we consider most fundamental for its future. Therefore, we have designed a corporate structure that will protect Google's ability to innovate and retain its most distinctive characteristics. We are confident that, in the long run, this will bring Google and its shareholders, old and new, the greatest economic returns. We want to clearly explain our plans and the reasoning and values behind them. We are delighted you are considering an investment in Google and are reading this letter.
Sergey and I intend to write you a letter like this one every year in our annual report. We'll take turns writing the letter so you'll hear directly from each of us. We ask that you read this letter in conjunction with the rest of this prospectus.
Sergey and I founded Google because we believed we could provide a great service to the world -instantly delivering relevant information on any topic. Serving our end users is at the heart of what we do and remains our number one priority.
Our goal is to develop services that improve the lives of as many people as possible - to do things that matter. We make our services as widely available as we can by supporting over 97 languages and by providing most services for free. Advertising is our principal source of revenue, and the ads we provide are relevant and useful rather than intrusive and annoying. We strive to provide users with great commercial information.
We are proud of the products we have built, and we hope that those we create in the future will have an even greater positive impact on the world.
As a private company, we have concentrated on the long term, and this has served us well. As a public company, we will do the same. In our opinion, outside pressures too often tempt companies to sacrifice long-term opportunities to meet quarterly market expectations. Sometimes this pressure has caused companies to manipulate financial results in order to "make their quarter." In Warren Buffett's words, "We won't 'smooth' quarterly or annual results: If earnings figures are lumpy when they reach headquarters, they will be lumpy when they reach you."
If opportunities arise that might cause us to sacrifice short term results but are in the best long term interest of our shareholders, we will take those opportunities. We will have the fortitude to do this. We would request that our shareholders take the long term view.
Many companies are under pressure to keep their earnings in line with analysts' forecasts. Therefore, they often accept smaller, but predictable, earnings rather than larger and more unpredictable returns. Sergey and I feel this is harmful, and we intend to steer in the opposite direction.
** Much of this was inspired by Warren Buffett's essays in his annual reports and his "An Owner's Manual" to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders.

The IPO price will probaly be too high to justify what value they do have.

The price will spike for sure & then crash.

This is the beginning of the end for Google. There will be little more innovation, search results will be useless because of the artificially high rankings given to paid advertisers, and pop-ups will spring up all over the place every time I visit the site -- all so they can "make the numbers".

In Warren Buffett's words, 'We won't smooth quarterly or annual results: If earnings figures are lumpy when they reach headquarters, they will be lumpy when they reach you."
The founders have also fought to maintain their control over the company even as it hired Chief Executive Officer Eric Schmidt in 2000. According to the document, Page and Brin said that they will run the company as a "triumvirate."

The Northeastern Pennsylvania Council of the Boy Scouts of America was approached by representatives of Woodloch Pines Resort in Pike County Pennsylvania in the fall of 2009 concerning the possible donation of a log cabin that is on a property they purchased. They would like to use the property for purposes that requires the removal of the log cabin. The cabin was constructed by Daniel Carter Beard, a founding father of the Boy Scouts of America, for use at his camp. The cabin will be demolished and lost forever if it is not taken at this time.
The Northeastern Pennsylvania Council authorized the formation of a Dan Beard Cabin Committee to study the possibilities and ramifications of accepting the donation of the Dan Beard Cabin at its November 2009 Annual Meeting. The study, now complete, includes the historical importance of the Cabin, how the cabin will be used, the site location, estimated costs and possible fundraising ideas/sources.
The Executive Board of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Council, Boy Scouts of America after careful consideration and determination of findings has approved the reconstruction of the Dan Beard Cabin at Goose Pond Scout Reservation.
The building will be a multi-functional space with no one proposed use precluding the others. We believe that these uses are compatible with the cabin's original uses by Daniel Carter Beard when it served as his camp headquarters building and will serve the Boy Scout program at Goose Pond Scout Reservation well.
The cabin will be located on a site between the Capouse campsite and the COPE (Challenging Outdoor Personal Experience) course, on the lake side of the camp road. The cabin will be used as the headquarters of the "Pathways" Program for brand new Scouts at summer camp, Troop winter camping, Leadership Development Training Programs and events, meetings, and other special events such as Eagle Scout Ceremonies and Boards of Review. The cabin will include a small museum/interpretative area pertaining to Daniel Carter Beard and the History of the Cabin.
The construction will occur in three phases for funding purposes but may be constructed in a single phase if sufficient funds are secured. The construction is further subdivided into seven stages. The committee has engaged an experienced log cabin builder to estimate the costs of the reconstruction, which is estimated at a total of $207,250. It is anticipated that some of the work will be completed with volunteer labor, borrowed equipment and donated materials, which will reduce this cost. The first phase of the reconstruction may be completed for an estimated cost of $143,550.
It has been determined that funding for this project should not negatively impact the funding of normal operations of the Council. A number of potential funding sources have been identified. It has been determined that 110% of the funding required for any stage of construction be secured as cash before beginning that stage to ensure that the cabin project does not result in a negative impact on the Council's debt position.
Extensive research has been accomplished on Daniel Carter Beard, his Pike County camp and the log cabin which has confirmed that this cabin was constructed at Dan Beard's camp in 1926 and was used as the camp headquarters and meeting area. Some of the interesting historical significance of this cabin is presented in Appendix 1.
The cabin can be used for a number of non-conflicting, compatible uses. This requires that no singular use be implemented in such a manner as to preclude the other uses.
Possible uses of the cabin include:
Other uses were discussed and determined to be inappropriate due to the nature of the building or to its connection with Daniel Carter Beard, or incompatible to other preferred uses. Uses discussed and determined to be inappropriate include:
The log cabin will be located at the Northeastern Pennsylvania Council's Goose Pond Scout Reservation located in Paupack Township, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. Goose Pond is less than 15 miles from the current site of the log cabin and is the closest existing Boy Scout Camp to the former Dan Beard Camp. Goose Pond provides a setting where the best uses for the cabin can be realized. It was also determined that Goose Pond is in need of additional winter camping facilities, and an inclement weather program area during the summer camping season which this cabin will provide.
Within the Goose Pond property, a number of specific site locations for the building were discussed with the site located off of the camp road between the Capouse/Delaware campsite and the COPE course on the lake side of the road being selected. A map of the selected site is included in Appendix 2. The description of the location selected is as follows:
Cabin Site – is located between Capouse and COPE course on lakeside of the camp road. Recommended due to relatively gentle slope of the site, some woods, convenient location for summer camp program area, proximity to COPE course for possible use until a new building is constructed for COPE.
The log cabin has experienced some decline over the years. The logs are found to be in excellent condition, but the roof and porch decking require replacement. Woodloch has new roofing materials stored near the cabin and have agreed to donate them to the Council with the cabin. These materials have laid in storage for approximately two years and are being moved and stored properly in a new location at Goose Pond Scout Reservation.
Through research of the cabin, it has been determined that the cabin also had a lean-to roofed extension on the back and a loft area called the "Oriole's nest" by Beard. The main effort shall be to reconstruct the main cabin and porch at Goose Pond. But it is also desirable to reconstruct the extension and the Oriole's nest. Plans of the proposed cabin reconstruction noting the proposed three phases of the construction process is included in Appendix 3. The three phases are noted as follows:
Phase 1 – construction of the main cabin and porch. It also includes the foundation walls for Phase 2 and the one wall of the extension due to log jointing requirements. The cabin will be constructed on a spread footing foundation and crawl space. Foundation piers will provide support for the porch.
Phase 2 – construction of the lean-to extension. This space will provide four rooms. Two will provide separate winter sleeping areas for adults or women and be used as office/ program areas for summer camp. A third room provides kitchen space to eventually include a sink when water and sewer utility service is provided to this area of camp. The fourth area will initially be used as storage, but eventually be converted to a bathroom when water and sewer service is provided. The extension is constructed on a concrete foundation with a full basement storage space underneath for summer storage of winter camping equipment (e.g. cots) and winter storage of summer camp program supplies. The basement is day-lighted on the lake side of the structure for full access.
Phase 3 – Oriole's Nest – The loft area known as the Oriole's nest provides an interesting historic context given Beard's authoring of a "Boy's Life" magazine article pertaining to it in 1930. This phase of construction is the smallest but may pose the most challenges regarding construction methodologies, given that those employed in the initial construction are not adequate by today's standards. A new beam and support design will need to be employed. The stairway to the nest is also challenging.
Construction may proceed with only Phase 1 and then have Phases 2 and 3 follow, or begin with Phases 1 and 2, or construct all 3 phases as once, depending upon the availability of funding.
The Committee has also recognized that the construction process may be further defined by smaller increments in order to meet the initial needs of securing and properly storing the available roofing materials, removing the building from its current site to meet Woodloch's needs and beginning the process as soon as possible as sufficient funds are secured for each stage, instead of waiting for the total project funding to be in-place. Construction stages have been identified as follows:
Stage 1 – Secure and properly store the roofing materials donated by Woodloch
Stage 2 – Disassemble, move and store the cabin
Stage 3 – Site prep at Goose Pond Scout Reservation
Stage 4 – Construct Foundation
Stage 5 – Cabin construction Phase 1 (main cabin and porch)
Stage 6 – Cabin Construction Phase 2 (lean-to extension)
Stage 7 – Cabin Construction Phase 3 (Oriole's nest)
Considerable effort has been made to estimate the probable cost of all labor, equipment and materials required to complete the project. The committee was fortunate to find an experienced log cabin contractor, The Cabin Doctor, who visited the site with committee representatives and provided multiple revisions to cost estimates as the construction requirements were defined and refined. A detailed estimate of costs is presented in Appendix 4. A summary of costs by Stages identified in the previous section of the report is as follows:
|Stage 1
|Stage 2
|Stage 3
|Stage 4
|Stage 5
|Stage 6
|Stage 7
The committee has determined that funding for this project should not negatively impact the funding of normal operations of the Council. Suggested parameters for the Cabin's funding plan are presented in Appendix 5. Possible sources for funds identified and discussed by the committee include:
January 16, 2001 - Some Boy Scouts are trying to save a piece of scouting history in the Poconos.
Boy Scouts young and old got to work Sunday on an old cabin near Hawley.
"We're pretty much de-chinking now, which means taking the stuff out from between the logs," explained Boy Scout Giancarlo Iona.
This is not just any cabin. It is the Daniel Beard cabin, named after one of the original founders of the Boy Scouts.
Lackawaxen Twp. — Woodloch Pines Resort has donated a historic cabin on their property to the Boys Scouts of America. The log cabin was used by one of the Scouts' founders in the first half of the 20th Century.
The Northeast Pennsylvania (NEPA) Council of the Boy Scouts of America has plans to move it to the Goose Pond Boy Scout Reservation about 12 or 15 miles away, in Paupack Township.
The Northeastern Pennsylvania Council, Boy Scouts of America has begun the process of relocating and restoring an important piece of Scouting's history.
This cabin, the last remaining part of the Dan Beard Outdoor School, a camp run by Daniel Carter Beard in Lackawaxen Township, Pike County, PA is being disassembled and moved 12 miles to Goose Pond Scout Reservation. This process is not a small undertaking, but by relocating and keeping this 1926 Kiva style log cabin in Upstate Pennsylvania we are not only preserving its history but are also honoring a beloved founder of the BSA, Dan Beard himself.
These pages will explain the history of the cabin and detail the restoration process. You will also be able to follow the project through our collection of pictures and images.
This project is being made possible with help from the many volunteers who are giving their time and labor freely. It cannot be completed, however, without the contributions and generosity of supporters like you. CLICK HERE to find out more about the Dan Beard Relocation Project or how to make a monetary donation to pay the costs of the relocation and rebuilding.
Starting this fall, our council will be participating in the Lion Scouts pilot program. We received official approval from national & our Council Executive Board recently approved our implementation of this program. This new program will welcome kindergarten-age boys into the Scouting family for the first time. It's an exciting opportunity to grow the Scouting movement and we've heard through the grapevine that many of our packs are looking forward to offering the Lion Scouts program in their packs!
There is still a lot of planning work and training yet to happen in getting ready for Lion Scouts in our council and offering the Lion Scouts program may not be right for every pack at this time.
Why is the BSA moving now to implement the Lion Scouts program? Rather than restate what's already been written by our Chief Scout Executive Mike Surbaugh, please take a few minutes to read this article about Lion Scouts.
Stay tuned & check back to this website for more information in the weeks ahead. For now, click on the Read more: link below for more information.
Scouts have another opportunity to earn the Railroading Merit Badge at one of the workshops being offered by Steamtown on three different weekends during the summer. Download the flyer below for more information. Note these workshops have not been organized by the NEPA council; they are being conducted by Steamtown Park Rangers, who are approved RR MB Counselors. Contact Steamtown directly for more information or to register.
OA Unit Elections & Visitations for 2016 are now being scheduled! All units (even if they have no Scouts eligible this year) are requested to download and complete the form below and return to the NEPA Scout Service & Training Center at least two weeks prior to their earliest requested election date.
In 1930 the Boy Scouts of America launched a home- and neighborhood-centered program for boys 9 to 11 years of age. A key element of the program is an emphasis on caring, nurturing relationships between boys and their parents, adult leaders, and friends. Currently, Cub Scouting is the largest of the BSA's three membership divisions. (The others are Boy Scouting and Venturing.)
Cub Scouting has program components for boys in the first through fifth grades (or ages 7, 8, 9, or 10). Members join a Cub Scout pack and are assigned to a den, usually a neighborhood group of six to eight boys. First-grade boys (Tiger Cubs) meet twice a month, while Wolf Cub Scouts (second graders), Bear Cub Scouts (third graders), and Webelos (fourth and fifth graders) meet weekly.
Once a month, all of the dens and family members gather for a pack meeting under the direction of a Cubmaster and pack committee. The committee includes parents of boys in the pack and members of the chartered organization.
Cub Scouting has nine purposes, to:
I, (name), promise to do my best
To do my duty to God and my country,
To help other people, and
To obey the Law of the Pack.
The Cub Scout Motto
Do Your Best.
The Cub Scout follows Akela.
The Cub Scout helps the pack go.
The pack helps the Cub Scout grow.
The Cub Scout gives goodwill.
The Cub Scout colors are blue and gold. The blue stands for truth and spirituality, steadfast loyalty, and the sky above. The gold stands for warm sunlight, good cheer, and happiness. Together, they symbolize what Cub Scouting is all about.

well either he was watching the road and he did this on purpose when he could have just taken a second to be like, hey kid move off of the road, that's not exactly a fucking highway it's a residential neighborhood and there's no front yard on the only house you can see suggesting there's no front yards on the others, kids gotta play and yeah when there's nothing but streets and private property for miles they are going to play on the street.
Maybe he's old and bitter and has a shitty ass job not even he respects but that doesn't mean he should ruin a kids month just to drive the point home of HEY I'M A COLOSSAL CUNT and even if he does we, as a community, should recognize this is the behavior of an asshole.

Actually, whether or not the pedestrian is following the law the driver has a responsibility of keeping his or her eyes on the road. Therefore, he legally has to stop.

Seeing 'New Europe' now, 20 years after the fall of the Iron Curtain gives a 40000 feet image about what is happening on the other side of the continent for the British and Western viewers who are the principal target audiences if I am not mistaken. The series try to position themselves on the middle of the road between the TV travel series and the investigative documentary, but they just succeed to scratch the surface of the two genres. It is not that screen time is missing - seven series of one hour each could have been enough for saying many interesting and important things about the complex fate and the sinuous development of the countries that Palin visited. It is preparation time that seems to have been missing and what the authors have chosen to do was to pick a little bit of everything for each country some political comments, interviews with important figures in the life and history of the latest 20 years and with Brits traveling or settled in the visited areas, exotic landscapes, folklore, esoteric health treatments. The combination has an air of superficiality. It is not that the serious political comment is completely missing - actually many observations are quite sharp, but they lack deepness, and the trivia wrapping they are delivered in gives a sensation of entertainment show which may actually have been the principal intent, but which cannot win my enthusiasm.

We are focusing on the Lethbridge area because these next few lines are of importance to local residents and businesses seeking to take on the services of a top-ranked, knowledgeable, experienced, even successful realtor for their next property purchase. You have made up your mind that you want real value for money and that your next purchase will be truly indicative of a long-term investment. In this short message, we have decided to outline what you can expect from one Lethbridge specialist who remains a cut above the rest.
Yes, indeed, he has plenty of houses for sale Lethbridge-focused right now. And he is already a proud member of the world-renowned RE/MAX group. He has also entered this international property organization's hall of fame. He has had many years experience in the real estate business. So, it comes as no surprise to learn that he has also earned a lifetime achievement award. He has one prestigious client, among many, that is reputed as Lethbridge's largest builder of homes.
He is also recognized as an important and effective service provider by numerous financial institutions. He continues to remind clients that his specialist enterprise caters for both buying and selling requirements. As an erudite marketer, he is fully on board with modern technologies and the tools that it has provided both him and his clients. You could almost suggest that he has over-exposed himself, but in the positive sense of the word.
This is mainly because you are going to find him on just about every social media network you can think of. So, he also conforms well to the old real estate marketing practice of direct marketing and word by mouth advertising. He does not need to do too much of the talking. Others are doing it for him.

Yabbadabbadoo! This was super easy and SO yummy. Well, it is impossible for me to actually follow a recipe exactly; I used some bacon grease instead of butter, and since I couldn't find frozen peas and didn't want to look for them in my freezer, I used fresh broccoli, cut up small. The broccoli came out crunchy and flavorful, like in stir-frys. I used frozen shrimp. I omitted the cayenne. I doubled the recipe and served it over my whole wheat oven bannock. Yum! By the way, I just couldn't pass up a recipe with "wiggle" in the title!
