Mafioso: Habits Men Have Lost
Page 1 of 2I hate to reveal my age here, and I especially hate reflecting on the past — citing how things "used to be." It's a common theme with old stunads who sip their brandy at the bar alone, and I don't intend to become one of them. However, as far as men have come over the years, there are some habits we've lost along the way. I'm not talking about holding the door open for some broad; as far as I'm concerned, she can push or pull her own way through any opening she likes. I'm talking about the little habits that made us men. Not fighting, not womanizing — I'm wise enough to know these misconceptions of "manliness." Here's a list of what I'm talking about.
Drinking like a manToo many men these days drink like the cast of Sex and the City. A spritz of this and a spritz of that, you might as well get your fix at Jamba Juice. Going to the bar used to mean getting a stiff drink and letting the alcohol linger — it was a single malt Scotch, an Irish whisky or bourbon. You knew what you drank, and you knew the only kicker was a splash of soda or a couple cubes of ice. When you were at the office, you didn't complain over a cup of coffee, you pulled the bottle of the Glenlivet from under the desk. It was never for the sake of getting drunk, but because you knew the day would be so much better after those few sips.
Getting a shaveWith every added blade to a Gillette razor, men are finding a professional shave less and less necessary. The well-groomed elite will still find a straight-blade salon, but the trend doesn't have the reach it used to. Professional shaves weren't reserved for the aristocratic, and it wasn't because you couldn't do it yourself. It was for the experience of sitting in the chair, busting balls and turning a mundane habitual act into an enjoyable experience. Now a guy is content with a Bic and a can of cold Barbasol — stunad.
Laying brickI don't literally mean laying brick. I don't want some stunad ditching his desk job to go work at a construction site. But I think it's pretty clear that men have lost their handiness, especially when the first step to fix a leaky faucet is to call the plumber. It's important to be wrench-savvy and to occasionally take the Philips head into your own hands. Back in the day, it didn't matter if you were a stockbroker, surgeon or wise guy; on Sunday afternoons, you were the handyman.
There are a few more habits men have lost and need to get back pronto...

Are you worried that the business opportunities you see online are just "make cash scams" in disguise? The majority of what you'll often find online is can be true or untrue. The genuine challenge is weeding through it all to seek something that works best for you you. Every common cash generating scams a number of web marketing newcomers can fall under.
Generate income Quick:
A great deal of experts in internet marketing use their stories to testify what you are able to do too in case you buy some or services. As it is usually true which these marketers did make an infinite fortune easily, there exists 3 things you should understand about that;
1) They probably were not brand spanking new to the industry if they started making the money. ..
2) They could have used other methods or programs to receive them this amount of money (so that they most likely are not revealing everything in what they sell to you…)
3) They appear to have also spent a huge amount of money so that you can earn this enormous fortune. While the products and/or services are most certainly valuable and legitimate, you shouldn't expect each of them get you to rich quick.
Easy Money generating:
There exists plenty of automated systems around. And right, they're real and yes, these are easy. But they will also be expensive but not incredibly effective as they appeal to a lot of people which can be aiming to go the easy route. However that earning money online doesn't have to get complicated – it can also be simple – but getting results does require effort.
Plenty of people set out in the wrong foot with systems claiming to to get easy and profitable. When they aren't extra easy or profitable, it's simple to renounce and deem these systems "make money scams".
Pyramid Schemes:
There are plenty of varieties of legitimate programs (like network marketing or MLM businesses) offering you commissions for those who recruit others into your business. However, in case you discovered program that brings you money if you recruit other marketers but offers zero products or services, it is a clear-cut pyramid scheme and scam. Luckily, the FTC is quick to crack down on these kinds of activities and that means you shouldn't run across them too often.
Pay Affiliate Programs:
Some affiliate marketing program claim that they can make you lots of money, but require someone to purchase their product or charge a sign in fee well before you can start promoting the thing they offer. Take into account that you will not be forced to pay for a joint venture partner product to enhance it (although there are reasons go to make it happen). Most affiliate product and service owners won't ask their affiliate to pay out money until they earn.
The higher quality Business Bureau and Federal Trade Commission offer additional information about avoiding rip-offs, plus techniques to verify offers and file complaints. Your state attorney general's office may also have specific or general information about make cash scams.

I'm missing the glory days of gold and silver moves.
I'm getting in and out at 3% spreads. So far so good.
I've typically been ok taking 2% but this compares to the glory days of 5-6% a few years ago.
The difficult thing is that the price action of today sets up a high probability of bearishness being the most likely scenario in the next 48 hrs. Top sided bounded by 22.312 and I'd short it but I have a doctors appointment for my bumped out knee.\

Many people are hoping for a financial windfall as a result of leasing the mineral rights on their property for Utica shale exploration.
But if and when that money comes, experts say landowners should have a plan to help them make the most of it.
"You have to look at each individual situation and the family situation so carefully, because what applies to one may not apply to the next couple," said Randall Perry, certified public accountant and partner with Perry and Associates in Marietta.
There are reports of lease bonus offers in Washington and surrounding counties approaching $6,000 an acre, with royalty amounts for oil and gas actually produced higher than in years past. While that initial bonus payment may have some people imagining all the things they can buy, Perry said it's best to play it safe, because if the well doesn't produce, that may be all you get.
"You may never see any royalties from it, so you want to make sure that's the safe money," he said. "That is the seed money that really they shouldn't be blowing."
Perry and others recommend getting professional advice on not only how to save and invest that money but also how to deal with the taxes they'll be paying.
Fact Box
Easing the tax burden
Options for reducing the tax burden on lease bonus payments
- Consult a financial professional.
- Increase contribution to your retirement plan made before taxes.
- Purchase equipment for your farm or business.
- Spread the payment out over two or more years.
- Deduct a portion of the payment or payments up front to pay the taxes.
Source: Times research.
"Once you sign the lease, it's taxable income," he said.
Sometimes people start spending their newfound wealth without thinking about the taxes that will be due later, said Ron Eberhardt, president of Business and Estate Planning Unlimited in Grove City.
"There are a lot of things that can be done, but the taxes must be paid ahead of time," he said.
A sizable bonus payment could push someone into a higher tax bracket. The scope of the change depends on how much land is involved.
"It's different for the guy that has 200 acres than the guy that has 40 acres," Perry said.
There are ways to reduce the amount a person has to pay.
For example, a person could increase the contribution to his or her retirement plan so their taxable income decreases. Business owners could purchase equipment to improve their business, although the amount allowed to be deducted for this will decrease in 2013.
According to oilandgashelp.com, a website established by Northwest Bancshares Inc. in Warren, Pa., where the shale boom has been going on longer than in Ohio, having bonus payments spread out over two or more years rather than being paid all at once can also reduce the tax burden.
If multiple payments are received, a tax reserve account could be established to put aside money from each check to pay the taxes, the site says.
In some cases, Perry said, families might consider dividing ownership of the property so the income is spread between family members and each would be taxed at a lower rate. But whether that's the best approach depends on the dynamics of the family.
"That's also a very permanent thing, and a lot of people don't want to do that," he said.
If royalty payments follow, they are also taxable as well, but Perry noted they are subject to a depletion deduction of 15 percent. That's because the resource is being used over time, according to www.kiplinger.com.
As in dealing with one-time lease bonuses, Perry said, people can purchase equipment or fund their 401(k) at the maximum level to help reduce taxes over a longer term. There are also investment opportunities in things like tax-free municipal bonds and other tax-sheltered options, he said.
Eberhardt said sudden wealth can bring opportunities and burdens, but the money itself is not the true source of problems.
"It's more of a people issue than it is a financial or tax issue," he said.
To avoid those struggles, Eberhardt recommends landowners be cautious and informed.
"They need to get second opinions," he said. "They need to talk to people who have been there, done that and successfully protected what they have."
Parkersburg resident Bill Wotring's family owns 35 acres in Cutler and they are working with a landowners association in that area to negotiate a lease. Wotring said he definitely plans to consult a tax accountant if they receive a bonus payment to protect as much of it as possible.
"You certainly want to be very judicial and wise," he said.
Wotring doesn't expect the land to result in a massive windfall, but he said he would probably use what money they do earn toward paying off the mortgage on the property, which was purchased about five years ago.
If royalties or otherwise larger amounts of money would follow, he has a few ideas of what he would like to do, including paying off other property and investing in more, and perhaps even indulging his love of classic cars. But above all, Wotring said he would want to try to use the money to do something good.
"I look at it as a moral obligation to use it for the best purposes possible," he said.

Definition of Vitamin D requirement
Vitamin D requirement: The amount of vitamin D recommended per day, which varies according to the age of the individual.
Recommendations are as follows:
- For Children: The National Academy of Sciences and American Academy of Pediatrics have recommended that all infants, including those who are exclusively breastfed, have a minimum intake of 200 International Units (IU) of vitamin D per day beginning during the first 2 months of life. In addition, it is recommended that an intake of 200 IU of vitamin D per day be continued throughout childhood and adolescence, because adequate sunlight exposure is not easily determined for a given individual.
- For Adults: The Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine has recommended the following as an adequate vitamin D intake: 200 IU daily for people 19-50 years old; 400 International Units (IU) daily for those 51-70 years old; and 600 IU daily for those 71 years and older. An average multivitamin tablet contains 400 IU of vitamin D. Therefore, taking a multivitamin a day should help provide the recommended amount of vitamin D. The new recommended daily allowance (RDA), as set in 2010, is based on age, as follows: for those 1-70 years of age, 600 IU daily; for those 71 years and older, 800 IU daily; and for pregnant and lactating women, 600 IU daily. The IOM further recommended that serum 25(OH)D levels of 20ng/mL (= 50 nmol/L) is adequate, and levels > 50ng/mL (= 125 nmol/L) could have potential adverse effects

WASHINGTON (May 17, 2013)--Republicans are hoping the furor over Internal Revenue Service officials who singled out conservative groups for particular attention will do some collateral damage to President Barack Obama's health care law.
The IRS plays a major role in carrying out the health care law.
Financial aid to help the uninsured afford coverage will be funneled through the tax system and the agency is also responsible for penalties on individuals and employers who fail to comply with the law.
And it turns out the former head of the IRS office that subjected tea-party groups to tougher scrutiny for tax exemptions is now running the agency's health care division.
The red-meat associations appear irresistible, but no one appears to have the facts yet that could connect the dots.

EU Bailout: Here's a Good Sign
Is the overwhelming show of financial force by Eurozone enough to sooth markets? Here's a decent sign that it's having a salubrious effect — at least for now. The oft-mentioned spread between German and Greek 10-years is tightening nicely Monday morning.
At last glance, the spread — or the difference between the interest rates demanded by investors to lend to the supersafe benchmark of Germany and Greece — was down by 4.64 percentage points Monday. Other spreads of fiscally troubled European nations are also coming in. Portugal's have shrunk by 1.63 percentage points so far this morning. and Ireland has narrowed by about 1.28 percentage points at last glance.
As devout MarketBeat readers know, the spread — or the difference between the interest rates demanded by investors to lend to different countries — is one way that market watchers keep an eye on worries in the credit markets. Writ short: fatter spreads = growing stress.
And so it looks like the Eurozone's bailout announcement has had the desired market response. But EU officials shouldn't take a victory lap just yet. These spreads could easily start widening again if investors start to wonder whether Europe has the will to deliver the eye-popping sums it has promised.

Stimulus vs. Bailout – What's the Difference?
The stimulus is not the bailout.
I'm compelled to write that because it seems a lot of people mix up the two.
In order to write the story that ran today, Small Businesses Weigh Recovery Act, I spoke with a lot of business owners so I could understand how the massive law has or has not impacted them. The responses were mixed, as is evident from the three anecdotes that made it into the final article.
But one common theme surfaced during my interviews – and that was confusion. It became apparent as I progressed with my reporting that many business owners don't know what the stimulus was or what it was intended to do.
In fact, in several instances, when I asked a business owner for opinons about Obama's stimulus program, he or she would respond that too much money went to the banks.
I would then say, "Are you talking about the bailout or the stimulus?"
The familiar response: "Is there a difference?"
Actually, yes.
To quickly review – and, I promise, this will be painless – the bailout (also called the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP), was a $700 billion initiative that passed in late 2008. It was designed to infuse banks with funds in order to stabilize their balance sheets that had gone kablooey when the housing bubble burst. Bailout funds also went to the struggling auto industry.
The stimulus (also called the Recovery and Reinvestment Act, or ARRA) was a $787 billion bill that passed several months later. It intended to boost employment and economic output through grants, loans and tax breaks. The recipients were state and local governments, individuals, and businesses both large and small. (See, that wasn't so bad, was it?)
I completely get why so many people can't keep the two straight. As a reporter simultaneously covering the funds that flowed from each bill, it was difficult at times during the early part of 2009 to remember what was what.
It must be even harder to know the facts when reading the legislation isn't a part of your daily job. As if the similar amounts – both in the $700-something billion range – weren't confusing enough, they both came with nonsensical acronyms. And because they were passed relatively close to each other, it's easy to jumble them, particularly in retrospect two years later.
I spoke with John K. Paglia of Pepperdine University about this when he and I discussed the findings of a report he had recently published on the stimulus. His study found that the vast majority of small companies think publicly traded firms got the most stimulus funds. (And in fact, many large corporations did indeed benefit from the stimulus.) But I wondered if that was because so many owners think the stimulus funds were directed to giant financial firms and auto manufacturers.
"Small businesses are a little less sophisticated in terms of knowing what these programs are," he said. "The average small business owner, I don't think he or she has the time, energy or focus to [distinguish] the true differentiation."
Still, he stood by his results. In addition to surveying business owners, he also surveyed capital providers, who, he said, are more "in tune" with the policies. That segment of respondents, he said, also felt that publicly traded companies got the bulk of the stimulus money.
From my observations, business owners don't care that that they muddle the bailout and the stimulus. In many cases, they see them in the same context: huge sums of federal money that did not reach them.

Rijndael (pronounced rain-dahl) is the algorithm that has been selected by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as the candidate for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). It was selected from a list of five finalists, that were themselves selected from an original list of more than 15 submissions. Rijndael will begin to supplant the Data Encryption Standard (DES) over the next few years in many cryptography applications. The algorithm was designed by two Belgian cryptologists, Vincent Rijmen and Joan Daemen, whose surnames are reflected in the cipher's name. Rijndael has its origins in Square, an earlier collaboration between the two cryptologists.
The Rijndael algorithm is a new generation symmetric block cipher that supports key sizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits, with data handled in 128-bit blocks -- however, in excess of AES design criteria, the block sizes can mirror those of the keys. Rijndael uses a variable number of rounds, depending on key/block sizes, as follows:
9 if the key/block size is 128 bits
11 if the key/block size is 192 bits
13 if the key/block size is 256 bits
Rijndael is a substitution linear transformation cipher, not requiring a Feistel network. It uses triple discreet invertible uniform transformations (layers). Specifically, these are: Linear Mix Transform; Non-linear Transform and Key Addition Transform. Even before the first round, a simple key addition layer is performed, which adds to security. Thereafter, there are Nr-1 rounds and then the final round. The transformations form a State when started but before completion of the entire process.
The State can be thought of as an array, structured with four rows and the column number being the block length divided by bit length (for example, divided by 32). The cipher key similarly is an array with four rows, but the key length divided by 32 to give the number of columns. The blocks can be interpreted as unidimensional arrays of 4-byte vectors.
The exact transformations occur as follows: the byte subtransformation is nonlinear and operates on each of the State bytes independently -- the invertible S-box (substitution table) is made up of two transformations. The shiftrow transformation sees the State shifted over variable offsets. The shift offset values are dependent on the block length of the State. The mixcolumn transformation sees the State columns take on polynomial characteristics over a Galois Field values (28), multiplied x4 + 1 (modulo) with a fixed polynomial. Finally, the roundkey transform is XORed to the State. The key schedule helps the cipher key determine the round keys through key expansion and round selection.
Overall, the structure of Rijndael displays a high degree of modular design, which should make modification to counter any attack developed in the future much simpler than with past algorithm designs.

Does anyone have a profile that has the game finished on PC, because I can't get past this movements level, and it makes me want to punch babies.
This level is a bit difficult. But I beat it and I can give you a few tips, if you want:
Obviously grab the nearest settlement and the lava/fire ward. Then use the lava to build a large mound somewhere near the settlement and move your settlement (using space bar) to it.
After that raise the other settlements using the lava before expanding too them.
You need some water in the base when the lava starts coming from the sides so that it hardens the lava at the edges. This will eventually block where the lava is coming from.
If the water gets a bit too high, use evaporate. BUT make sure you cancel it, by pressing the button again, so that some water stays there.
Later in the game you can also pour infinite sand on top of your settlements to raise them further if the water gets too high.
Hope this helps.
Additionally, if your settlements are catching fire before you can get the ward there you can try and prevent it by absorbing all the sand as soon as the settlement is made. This puts out any fires and stops the edges catching as well.
I haven't tried building a high mound near the first settlement, I will try.
I can confirm it can be done without moving any totems as that's how I beat it. A bit tricky but do-able.
Enjoy raging!
I'm sure it can be done without moving the totems, however I thought I'd use all the tools at my disposal as a god of the elements .

Student Convicted in Webcam-Spying Trial
A jury found a former Rutgers University student guilty of invasion of privacy and bias intimidation charges in the webcam-spying trial, deciding that he was motivated by homophobia when he streamed video of his roommate's intimate encounter with another man.
After less than three full days of deliberations, the five men and seven women of the jury found Dharun Ravi, 20 years old, guilty of invading the privacy of his 18-year-old roommate, Tyler Clementi, and his dorm-room date. They also found that Ravi was motivated by bias under a New Jersey hate-crime law that had been largely untested so far.
Ravi was found guilty of all 15 charges he faced, but the jury returned not guilty verdicts on some aspects of the charges, including all bias charges linked to the unnamed victim who had been with Clementi.
Clementi, a quiet freshman and gifted violinist who had told his parents he was gay days before leaving for college, killed himself by jumping off George Washington Bridge shortly after he learned about the spying. Ravi was not charged in connection with the death.
The jury had been asked to decide Ravi's motivations when he trained his webcam on Clementi and his date on two separate occasions in September 2010, in a case that set off a national conversation about cyber-bullying and treatment of gay youth.
Ravi showed no reaction as the jury forewoman read the verdict. Families for both sides filled five benches of the packed courtroom, remaining stone-faced as the verdicts were read.
Ravi faces up to 10 years in prison on most serious bias intimidation convictions, but is likely to receive a lesser sentence based on sentencing guidelines because he is a first time offender.
The India-born Ravi, who has spent most of his life in the U.S. as a permanent resident, faces the possibility of deportation as a result of his criminal conviction. He rejected a plea deal in December that would have kept him out of prison and offered him assistance with immigration authorities.
Prosecutors agreed to let Ravi remain out on a $25,000 bail; he has already surrendered his passport. The judge set a sentencing date for May 21.
During 12 days of testimony in the trial, defense attorney Steven Altman never denied that Ravi used a camera to observe the meetings between Clementi and M.B., the unnamed witness who was present during the dorm-room encounters. Instead, the defense lawyer argued that Ravi's actions were those of an immature teenager who went too far in a situation he was unprepared to handled.
Prosecutor Julia McClure argued that after Ravi received Clementi's email address as part of the freshman year process at Rutgers, he went online and was upset to learn that his roommate might be gay. She argued the text messages, emails and other communications with friends showed a calculated attempt to intimidate Clementi because of his sexual orientation.
Authorities argued that the intimidation took shape on Sept. 19, 2010, when Ravi agreed to let Clementi have the room for the night — but not before angling a webcam attached to his computer to spy on his tryst.
The prosecutor said Ravi then watched briefly with friends from across the hall as the two men kissed with their shirts off, taking to Twitter and instant message software to broadcast what he saw.
"Roommate asks for the room til midnight I went into molly's room and turned on my webcam," Ravi posted to Twitter. "I saw him making out with a dude. Yay."
Ravi again prepared to spy on Clementi and the unnamed witness two days later, but Clementi unplugged the computer after learning on Twitter of the intended spying. Clementi killed himself the next day, using his cellphone to post one final message on his Facebook page: "Jumping off the gw bridge, sorry."
Ravi was not accused of his roommate's death and prosecutors never tried to link the death to his actions. But jurors were told about the suicide several times during the proceedings.
To convict on each of the four bias intimidation charges, the jury five men and seven women had to decide whether Ravi targeted Clementi or the unnamed witness, "with the purpose to intimidate" because of their sexual orientation, according to the charges. They must also decide if Ravi knew his actions would "cause" intimidation.
Within each bias charge, they also had to decide if Clementi was "intimidated" by Ravi's actions and "reasonably believed that he was selected to be the target."

What was it like playing golf with Charles Barkley? You had a bet with him right?
Oh, Charles is—I'm not a golfer, and I can beat him. Put it like that. I'm not even a golfer. I golf maybe two times a year, and we had—I go to his tournament and I'm like, "I bet you I can drive the ball longer than you." And I did! I'm like, I don't even play. I play two times a year. That means in the last four years, I've only played eight times. And I'm better than you? Like something's wrong.
He's got that weird swing that he does.
Oh, that's not a swing. That's a hit. He doesn't have a swing.
But my favorite game of all time, besides now NBA Ballers, but my favorite game prior to that was Mike Tyson's Punch-out. Now that was my favorite game of all time. Fast Joe, all those, now that was the most classic—that was the best game ever.
Did you play the reboot on the Wii?
Right, that's what I'm saying, where all the retro games are coming back. Right. Exactly. So—but Mike Tyson, you know, was the best one.
What's another classic that you'd like to see remade next?
I want them to remake the—remember the football game that you had to—they had the ball and you had to rub the ball on the top to make the X and the O move? You might be too young for that. It was an arcade game. But you had to actually, like, move the ball, so when—you had six players. It was an NFL football game, and you had six plays on defense and six plays on offense. And you had to guess what six the other guy was doing, and vice versa. And it was just X's and O's, it wasn't, like, real players…But once your "O" had handed off the ball, you had to run—it was like a spinning wheel that you had to just rub to make it—and the fast you rubbed it, the faster it went, or the slower you rubbed it, the slower it went. And you just had to dodge around. That game was the most fun game as well. YOur hand was dead afterwards, but it was a lot of fun. We played that after school every day.
They could put that on Kinect.
You have to run, and you actually yeah—you're moving around. That would be my favorite game of all time.
Thanks Kenny! Good luck figuring out what that game was. We have no idea.

RIM Bursts Into Top 5 List for Global Phone Manufacturers
Not just a big day for Waterloo's Research In Motion. Today marks an incredible day for the company, as they have become the first smartphone-specific mobile phone manufacturer to break into the Top 5 list for global phone manufacturers. That's right: a list that has, for years, been predominantly filled with feature phones and the like, has now been invaded by a company that creates no such thing. Times, oh they are a-changin'.
Today, the IDC released its coveted Top 5 list, along with its analysis of the market and its global impact. Of course, everyone just races to the good part: the top 5. If you were to do that yourself, you'd see that Nokia is still number one, with 107.8 million units sold in the first quarter of 2010. Second is Samsung, with 64.3 million units sold. Third, LG Electronics with an impressive 27.1 million units. Fourth, (and here's the important part) Research In Motion with a wild 10.6 million units sold. And then rounding out the bottom is Sony Ericsson, with an estimated 10.5 million units sold in the first quarter of this year.
So, RIM just inched by, but it doesn't matter the quantity. Just the fact that they did it at all. As it stands right now, RIM holds a 3.6 percent stake in the market share. While, comparatively, Nokia holds a 36.8 percent market share presence. Pretty impressive numbers, for both companies, but we can't help but feel proud of Waterloo and this amazing accomplishment.

Self-Proclaimed "Lawsuit Zeus" Targeted By Prosecutors
He's been dubbed "the Patrick Ewing of Suing," but now prosecutors in Kentucky want to send him to the sidelines.
Jonathan Lee Riches (pictured), a 33-year-old federal inmate in Lexington, has filed more than 3,800 lawsuits against an array of outlandish figures, from Somali pirates to Plato to Bill Belichick, the coach of the New England Patriots, according to this Associated Press story via the Washington Post.
Riches suffered a setback earlier this month in his effort to intervene in the bankruptcy case for Bernard Madoff's investment firm, when his appeal of an earlier denial was dismissed because he hadn't paid the required fees. In a handwritten court filing, Riches said Madoff had been his pen pal, and defrauded him, his siblings, neighbors and pets, and put him up to filing lawsuits.
"While I get notoriety, his wife Ruth is profiting off my fame by making Jonathan Lee Riches T-shirts, hats, mugs and selling them in Times Square NY," he wrote.
Confused? We are too.
On Monday, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Kentucky, Kerry Harvey, went to court seeking an injunction prohibiting Riches from filing documents in any court unless a federal judge determines "that the documents have some legitimate basis in fact and law." One exhibit cited to buttress prosecutors' claims: a lawsuit against the Yoga Journal, in which his fellow plaintiffs were American Idol judge Simon Cowell and Cowell's fiancee, makeup artist Mezhgan Hussainy. Riches has until October 5 to file his answer on the proposed lawsuit ban.
"We have had cases like this in the past," Kyle Edelen, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Lexington, told the AP. "Maybe not frequently, but they happen." For his part, Riches prefers the name "Lawsuit Zeus," but rejects other monikers, according to his writings cited by the AP:
"These phrases (i.e. "Patrick Ewing of Suing," "Johnny Sue-nami," etc …) hurt my feelings and violate my civil rights. I've filed so many law suits with my pen and right hand that I got arthritis in my fingers, numbness in my wrists, crooked fingers, I got bags under my eyes for sleepless nights suing the world," Riches wrote in Riches v. the Guinness Book of Records.
Under prosecutors' proposed order, Riches' mail would be screened in prison and anything identified as "fraudulent, malicious, or without basis in fact or law" would be returned to him. A Florida judge in 2008 prevented Riches from filing any more lawsuits in her jurisdiction. Riches, who is in prison for a fraud involving the theft of credit card numbers, will likely have more resources to file new suits if he is released as scheduled in 2012.

Rodman starts Celsion at market outperform
October 26, 2011 by stephenkilmer · Leave a Comment
Rodman & Renshaw has initiated coverage of Celsion (NASDAQ:CLSN) with a "market outperform/speculative risk" rating and a target price of $6, based on a discounted revenues and earnings per share valuation methodology. The stock closed at $2.75 on Tuesday.
"With approximately $25 million in cash pro forma, and an enterprise value of $47 million, we believe Celsion represents an undiscovered, and undervalued company with multiple near-term drivers poised to create shareholder value in 2012," writes analyst Reni Benjamin.
Celsion's most advanced product is ThermoDox, a liposomal encapsulation of doxorubicin, which is activated on exposure to mild hyperthermia. The company has completed enrollment of over 600 patients in the pivotal Phase 3 HEAT study, evaluating ThermoDox in conjunction with radiofrequency ablation, the standard of care in Stage A/B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
The trial is expected to report interim results in the current quarter, with final progression free survival results expected as early as the fourth quarter of 2012. "With a projected 80% gross margin on sales, we are forecasting peak, risk-adjusted world-wide revenues of approximately $400 million by 2019," Mr Benjamin figures.
The HEAT study is being conducted in over 11 countries, including China, and is under a special protocol assessment with the FDA. "Given the world-wide incidence of HCC and the dearth of therapeutic options, we believe Asia, in particular China, represents a key market whereby significant sales can be recorded," Mr Benjamin noted.

Issue No.03 - May/June (1971 vol.4)
pp: 15
T.S. Huang , Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Everyone agrees that the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) has revolutionized digital signal processing. However, no one knows with certainty the true history of the FFT. I had been as confused as everybody else until one day when I found in an old book store at Harvard Square a manuscript by Kipling which contained some unpublished Just-So Stories, one of which was entitled, "How the Fast Fourier Transform Got its Name." The time has now come to publish this historical account to quiet all rumors and hearsay.

Speculation X: Peter David on X-Factor
Speculation X: X-Factor
So far, so good, right? Absolutely—that is until Newsarama contacted Peter David to talk about what was in store for Madrox and the rest of X-Factor investigations for 2009.
When asked about the book, David responded, "Here's the problem: I don't want to give anything away. Nothing. Anything I would feel comfortable discussing would be so vague that it would ultimately be unsatisfying. As much as I want to get publicity for X-Factor, I'm not sure how to go about it without blowing key points. I can't discuss what happens with the baby without blowing the story. I can't discuss the Sentinels without blowing the story. What I'm trying to establish with X-Factor is that anything can happen and be wholly unexpected when it does. The internet seems to exist almost solely to provide major revelations and thus take the element of surprise out of the writer's hands and ultimately be harmful to comics."
David's mention of the Sentinels and the baby are references to current solicits made available by Marvel for the purpose of pre-order and sales. This month's issue of X-Factor marks the birth of the lovechild of Madrox and Siryn and the culmination of the current storyline in the book. February's solicit regards the return of John Madrox, the only dupe to not be re-absorbed by Jamie Madrox. Also, March's solicited material featured an image of a number of Madrox dupes and the head of a Sentinel. When asked about these specific events, David continued by saying, "I'm not trying to be ungrateful here. Nor am I unaware of the importance of marketing comics. Here's what I can tell you:
"Issues #39, #40, and #41 are a three step program to turn the book around creatively and sales wise. Valentine's art is breathtaking, I should mention, and spectacular art always helps. And my greatest desire, frankly, is for the internet to somehow develop the self-control to keep its collective mouth shut over the specifics. Fans should be entitled to be stunned by what they see without Ruiners. That's my term for 'Spoilers,' by the way. Blowing key aspects of stories don't simply spoil stories; they ruin them. Ruin them for the creative team, ruin them for the company, and they ruin them for the readers. I would love to see issues #39 through #41 be a Ruiner-free zone. I want to see fans exhibit the self-control not to ruin the stories for others, because fans who come into the books not knowing what to expect will, I believe, quite simply be blown away by what's coming up. And if I go ahead and discuss story specifics with you, then I'm violating my own intent."
Let's turn this piece on its ear and speculate: What do you, the reader, think of solicited material? Has it become too easy to read comics with prefaced, spoiler-laden advanced sales ads? Also, in the spirit of speculation, what do you think is going to happen with the birth of the Madrox/ Siryn lovechild? John Madrox? Or the Sentinels?
Finally, do "Spoilers" ruin the potential of good comics and their ability to entertain you, the reader?

The (Insider Trading) World Is Flat
If Tom Friedman decides to once again update his best-selling book "The World is Flat" — and calls it "The World is Really, Really Flat" — he should write a chapter on insider trading. (Our apologies to Mr. Friedman if there already is one.) First, there was the the retired Croatian seamstress buying Reebok stock (click here). Last week federal prosecutors brought criminal charges against a Credit Suisse banker, accusing him of tipping off a trader in Pakistan (click here). And yesterday, the SEC charged a Hong Kong couple of trading Dow Jones stock with inside information (click here).
For now, let's focus on the case of the Credit Suisse banker. Last week Magistrate Judge Theodore Katz denied Naseem bail, saying that the Pakistani citizen met "virtually every criteria" as a flight risk. Yesterday, before a different magistrate judge he was released on $1 million bail and electronic monitoring. And according to this report in the AP, Magistrate Judge James Francis cast a measure of doubt on the government's case.
The feds cited phone records showing Naseem called a Pakistani trader shortly before trades were executed related to nine not-yet-announced mergers. Nasseem's lawyer, Marc Mukasey at Bracewell & Giuliani, argued that there was public information that many of the mergers in question were possible.
Judge Francis reportedly said, "Certainly a jury could look at the facts as they've been laid out in the complaint and decide to acquit." He also suggested that it wasn't a surprise that Naseem would have financial connections to Pakistan. Naseem lived in Pakistan until 2002, and his mother and many family members still live there. According to the AP story, the judge said he was "not sure it's appropriate for Mr. Naseem to be a victim of globalization."
Now admittedly we don't have the full transcript of the court hearing, but we're fascinated by the judge's description of Naseem as a "victim of globalization." Whaddya think?

The wife of manager and trainer Barry Hunter offered up $50,000 to win Tuesday's purse bid and the right to promote a bout between his fighter, IBF junior welterweight titleholder Lamont Peterson, and mandatory challenger and ex-beltholde Zab Judah.
Cologne Hunter, who is married to Barry Hunter, is the head of Head Bangers' Promotions, which handles Peterson's affairs.
On Sept. 18, IBF Championships Chairman Lindsay Tucker informed RingTV.com that the camps of Peterson (30-1-1, 15 knockouts) and Judah (42-7, 29 KOs), an ex-welterweight champ and junior welterweight titleholder, were notified that they had until Tuesday to make a deal to face each other.
Tucker said Cologne Hunter was the sole bidder.
"[Cologne] Hunter won with a minimum bid of $50,000. They have 90 days to make the fight, which comes out to, I think, Jan. 2, 2013," said Tucker.
"They've got 15 days to get us the contracts, and the split is 75-25 in favor of Peterson because he's the champion, and Judah's the mandatory challenger. So we'll see what happens."
Hunter's publicist, Andre Johnson, said the clash is being targeted for Peterson's native Washington, D.C. against Judah, an ex-welterweight champ and junior welterweight titleholder.
Judah had been promoted by Main Events, whose president, Kathy Duva, is in Italy and had no comment.
"Head Banger's Promotions will handle this solely, and with no co-promotion. The fight will be in D.C.," said Johnson of a bout that that could take place at The Washington Convention Center or The Washington D.C. Amory.
"I don't have a date yet, but we're looking at both those venues. Our next plan is to move forward, vigorously, to get this fight scheduled and to get it done in D.C. That's the plan."
Peterson is 3-0-1 with two knockouts since falling to Tim Bradley by decision in December of 2009, and is coming off a disputed split-decision that dethroned Amir Khan at the Washington Convention Center in December.
Judah is coming off a ninth-round knockout of previously unbeaten Vernon Paris in March that helped him to rebound from a fifth-round knockout loss to Khan in July of last year.
Judah could not be reached for an immediate comment.
Peterson has also been mentioned for a potential rematch with Bradley (29-0, 12 KOs), whose controversial split-decision in June dethroned Manny Pacquiao as the WBO's 147-pound titleholder and ended his 15-bout winning streak that included eight stoppages.
Bradley is in line for an appearance on a Top Rank-promoted show on Dec. 15 from Marlins Park in Miami, Fla., on HBO.

NFL to honor Flight 1549 crew before Super Bowl
TAMPA, Fla. US Airways pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and the crew from Flight 1549 will be honored by the NFL before the Super Bowl. Sullenberger, co-pilot Jeffrey B. Skiles and flight attendants Doreen Walsh, Sheila Dail and Donna Dent will be recognized before the start of Sunday's game between the Arizona Cardinals and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Also being honored is Gen. David Petraeus, who heads the U.S. Central Command.
Petraeus will be part of the coin toss ceremony, which also include past Super Bowls greats Lynn Swann, Roger Craig and John Elway.

A Comparison of the USA Health Care Effort with other OECD Countries
Eduard Gracia

University of Barcelona - Department of Economic Theory
Hacienda Publica Espanola, Vol. 161, No. 2, 2002, Instituto de Estudios Fiscales, Copyright
We use a sample of OECD countries in order to better understand why the US health care expenditure as a percentage of its Gross Domestic Product ("health care effort") is so far above any other. To this end we employ a descriptive cross-country methodology based partially on econometric estimations, synthetic indicators and the Lerner's formula of market power, that allows us to dismiss as explanatory variables all those factors that were not differential across the sample. We advance the exploratory hypothesis that the availability of a universal public health coverage would increase the price elasticity of demand and thus would reduce the control of prices by the suppliers.

CHARLESTON - Carrie Lynn Rolwing and Timothy Gene Morgan were united in marriage at St. Henry Catholic Church in a 2 p.m. ceremony June 9, 2001. Monsignor Richard Rolwing performed the ceremony.
Candles and ferns accented with tulle decorated the church, arranged by Cora Sue Stallings and Angie Jones.
The bride is the daughter of Ron and Jeanne Rolwing of Charleston and granddaughter of Charles and Marie Guariglia of Eureka and Norbert and Carmelita Rolwing of Charleston.
Her husband, son of Robert and Margaret McKinney of Charleston, is the grandson of Neomia McKinney of Charleston and the late Emory McKinney and J.C. and Earline McCain.
Organist Terry Parker and flutist Nancy Moreton provided music for the occasion and Myra Bryant of Charleston read from the Old and New Testaments.
Escorted by her father, the bride wore a sleeveless gown of white satin. The scoop neckline was banded with pearls and the bodice was enhanced with pearls and crystals. Featured on the floor-length skirt and chapel length train were an ivory organza overlay accented in pearls and crystals. The back of the dress featured a satin bow with long cascading streamers and the fingertip-length veil was accented with pearls. The bride carried a bouquet of pale peach colored roses tied with an ivory bow.
Dimple Patel of Birmingham, Ala., served as maid of honor. Bridesmaids were Susan Camp and Lisa Murphy of Birmingham and Angela Stricker of Charleston.
They wore two-piece gowns featuring long A-line skirts and sleeveless scoop neck tops of pale peach with an ivory organza overlay. Each carried a long stemmed single ivory rose tied with an ivory bow and streamers.
Flower girls Martha Guariglia and Isabel Guariglia of St. Louis wore ballerina-length dresses of white linen accented with white lace.
Casey Smith of Nashville, Tenn., was best man. Groomsmen were Clay Hillhouse of Pescadero, Calif., John Pearson of Birmingham and Kenneth McKinney of Charleston. David Rolwing of Indianapolis, Ind., and Kenneth McKinney of Charleston served as ushers.
The men in the wedding party wore black, single-breasted tuxedos with black vests and bow ties. Each wore a single ivory rose boutonniere.
MaryLara Guariglia of St. Louis was guest book attendant and program attendants were Anna Guariglia of St. Louis and Haley Guariglia of Columbia.
A reception and dance were held at the Coach House Inn in Sikeston, where a four-tiered wedding cake was decorated in white flowers and accented with sprays of pearls and crystals and sat atop a lighted fountain. The bridegroom's cake was decorated as an ambulance to reflect his previous job as an emergency medical technician. Double Take Sound System provided the music for the reception.
A rehearsal dinner at the Coach House Inn was hosted by the bridegroom's parents on June 8 for the wedding party and grandparents of the couple.
Following a wedding trip to Nassau, Bahamas, the couple moved to Kansas City, where the bride is a pharmacist at Osco Pharmacy and the bridegroom is a first year medical student at the University of Health Sciences.

The shoes were a perfect fit and were very comfy, needing no breaking in. I walked around a hilly city for several hours the first time I wore them, and no issues.
its a nice style, but just the shoes little bit hard. the heels were worn easily too.
The shoes are at a great price. The quality is good. I have worn them many times and they still look good. The bow looks bad so I tossed it. They are also comfortable and the color is pretty. I will recommend them
這對鞋子質素不錯, 沒有臭味
雖然因為鞋頭比較尖和窄, 有一兩次穿著走很多路, 穿到腳趾起水泡, 但整體來說仍算舒適
表面的流蘇不整齊, 穿了幾次後裝飾用的蝴蝶結也鬆開了, 要自己綁回
This was my first time purchasing shoes and I got a size to smalls so they were a little tight. Other than that they are really beautiful, especially when paired with tights and a coat or dress.
Upon buying these shoes I didn't know what to expect being that my first attempt at ordering shoes ended up with my order being cancelled. Gladly the shoes came fit fabulous and have gotten me compliments everywhere I go. Shows how much a new pair of shoes can make your world a little bit more positive! YES-STYLE!!
