Breuer Wins Praise for Reforms, Gets Mixed Reviews on Enforcement
Lanny Breuer, the outgoing head of the Justice Department's Criminal Division, is leaving an organization he reshaped but has an enforcement record on certain issues that led to mixed reviews.
Breuer, who was confirmed to the position in April 2009, is the longest-serving head of the Criminal Division in recent history, the Justice Department said in a statement. He will step down March 1, the statement said. More coverage of his departure is here, here and here.
Among other things, he was involved in developing the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Initiative, spearheaded the development of the division's Money Laundering and Bank Integrity Unit, oversaw increased prosecution of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the release of landmark FCPA guidance, the statement noted.
Corruption Currents spoke to some of his former colleagues, and critics, about his legacy.
The Criminal Division needed a lot of restructuring when Breuer was confirmed, and a lot of what he did raised the profile of the division, said Rita Glavin, a partner at Seward & Kissel LLP who preceded Breuer in an acting role in 2009.
"He did that, and did it quickly," she said. The restructuring led to an ability to recruit top talent to a division that had become a backwater in terms of prosecutions compared to U.S. Attorney's offices around the country, Glavin said.
"You're not going to get that kind of talent unless there's a good culture and a mission to accomplish something," she said. "Lanny's stewardship of that division has been very positive."
His commitment to resources for dedicated units also won praise from former prosecutors.
Paul Pelletier, a member of law firm Mintz Levin who was formerly principal deputy chief of the Criminal Division's Fraud section, said Breuer's legacy will be his enthusiastic support of the health-care fraud strike force and the unit prosecuting FCPA cases.
"During my tenure in the Fraud Section, he fully supported our requests to further the effectiveness of these units," Pelletier said.
Breuer also had his critics, including those who thought his enforcement of certain laws was weak or selective.
He was hit hard last week in "The Untouchables," an episode of PBS Frontline in which Breuer was asked about why there have been no prosecutions, or even indictments, of executives related to the financial crisis.
And Breuer didn't just have critics slamming him for protecting Wall Street.
Marcy Wheeler, who blogs at Emptywheel, has criticized him on an assortment of issues, but in an email to Corruption Currents she focused on what she saw as a double standard in how the division treated small financial institutions versus larger ones on issues of money laundering.
"Whereas Breuer boasted about making a small two-person check cashing company 'pay the consequences' of helping clients launder money, he didn't even think HSBC's provision of hundreds of millions of cash dollars to a terrorist-linked bank worth mentioning when DOJ let the huge bank off without indictments," she wrote.
Many critics on the right had been calling for Breuer's resignation for months over his involvement in the Fast & Furious scandal.
Rep. Darrell Issa (R., Calif,), who chairs the House oversight committee, said last week that Breuer's departure is "long overdue" and "paves the way for needed new leadership" at the Criminal Division.
FCPA reform is also still on the minds of business groups, which applied the pressure that led to Breuer and the Securities and Exchange Commission to release guidance on the foreign-bribery law.
"Securing greater clarity and certainty under the FCPA remains an important objective and we expect to continue to work with DOJ and SEC on this front," said Harold Kim, the executive vice president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Institute of Legal reform. "Breuer and others in the agencies made important contributions to this effort by issuing the Guidance last November."


text: For Easter we had a spiral cut, fully cooked ham. I baked it in a 325 degree oven, basting with a honey glaze every 15 minutes. I read we needed to get the ham up to 140 degrees, but we cooked it forever (over 2 hours) and it still was only about 120, but we took it out anyway. (There were other things in the oven that probably affected the cooking time.) Parts of the ham were great, but a lot of parts were really dry and tough. I had a little bit of a foil tent, but did I not cover it well enough? I�m just trying to figure out what went wrong.

Keeping the streetlights on in New Matamoras is a high priority for resident Fancie Smith, who has no problem supporting a five-year replacement levy that will be on Tuesday's general election ballot.
"We need those streetlights to help keep the local crime rate down," she said. "This summer a group of vandals went through the business area, slicing tires and breaking windows.
"I've lived here eight years now, and the street signs at the corner of Virgin Alley and State Route 7 has been stolen at least eight times," Smith added. "That can be dangerous if an ambulance or rescue unit is looking for your street during an emergency."
New Matamoras Mayor Dennis Agin said the 2-mill renewal levy is not an increase and simply continues the property tax assessment for another five years.
"We just use it to help pay for the streetlights," he said. "It's surprising how much it costs to keep them on. We currently pay about $1,000 a month, but the bills are usually higher in winter when the nights are longer."
Agin said flyers have been distributed to residents, explaining the levy and why it's so important.
Fact Box
Proposed tax levy
(Replacement) for Matamoras Village:
A replacement of a tax for the benefit of the Village of Matamoras for the purpose of current operating expenses at a rate not exceeding 2 mills for each one dollar of valuation, which amounts to 20-cents for each $100 of valuation, for a period of 5 years, commencing in 2012, first due in calendar year 2013.
Source: Washington County Board of Elections www.electionsonthe.net
"We've had some questions about it, but we want people to know that we're just asking for the same amount we've had for the last five years," he said.
The levy raises about $20,000 annually for streetlight utility bills and maintenance, Agin said.
New Matamoras resident Debbie Riggs said she and her husband have been helping spread word about the levy by handing out some of the flyers.
"We're telling everyone it's just a renewal levy," she said. "It would be pretty dark around here if it didn't pass."
Smith agreed.
"It keeps our businesses and homes safe," she said, noting that well-lit areas of town are less susceptible to vandalism.

This Day in Crisis History: Sept. 15-16, 2008
This September, MoneyBeat will take a daily look back at the developments surrounding the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the financial crisis that followed. Each day, we will recap the events of the corresponding day in 2008, as the worst crisis in 80 years built to its terrible climax.
Sept. 15, 2008
After one of the most momentous and tumultuous weekends in Wall Street history, investors awoke to a rapidly intensifying financial crisis.
Lehman Brothers had filed for bankruptcy protection Monday morning and Merrill Lynch had sold itself to Bank of America. By the end of the day, investors had turned their focus to insurance giant AIG, which was tottering, needing to raise billions in capital or face collapse.
The Dow fell 504.48 points on Monday, Sept. 15, its biggest percentage drop in more than six years. Prices on Treasurys rose as investors fled to safety; and the cost of insuring the debt of investment grade companies against default jumped.
The weekend had begun with U.S. government convening a meeting of Wall Street CEOs Friday night. Their task for the weekend, the government said: Find a solution to Lehman, but there would be no government bailout.
By the afternoon of Sunday, Sept. 14, Lehman CEO Dick Fuld was essentially out of options.
Without government aid, a deal in principle for Barclays to buy Lehman had fallen apart. Bank of America, considered the most likely buyer earlier in the week, had informed Lehman it could not do a deal after concluding that firm's real-estate portfolio was worse than expected.
Desperate to avoid steering his 25,000-person company into bankruptcy proceedings, Mr. Fuld kept calling Bank of America CEO Ken Lewis. His call wasn't returned. Unbeknownst to Mr. Fuld, Bank of America was in secret talks with Merrill Lynch. By Sunday night, the two firms had struck a deal, and there was only one option left for Lehman.
As a meeting of Lehman directors wrapped up around 10 p.m. Sunday night, Mr. Fuld leaned back in his chair. "I guess this is goodbye."
Stocks headed south from the opening bell Monday. For much of the day, however, they held up better than many had expected and traders marveled at the market's resilience. Then in the final hour, a wave of selling swept through the market, driven by concerns about the stability of AIG, whose stock had dropped 60%.
Sept. 16, 2008
Uncle Sam didn't take long to change his mind.
One day after watching the market fallout from its decision to let Lehman fail, the government did a complete roundabout, and saved AIG, which, it deemed, was truly too big to fail. The government lent the company's $85 billion in exchange for a 79.9% stake, capping off 10 days of frantic maneuvering that would reshape the world of finance.
The decision was arrived at after a series of what by now were becoming regular affairs: the emergency meeting. Mr. Paulson and Mr. Bernanke met with Congressional leaders. What had them truly worried was that a failure at AIG could spiral into seemingly safe investments like, into stocks and bonds and derivatives, and send the credit crisis spiraling out of control.
It wasn't just the travails at AIG. Earlier on Tuesday, a money-market fund, the $62 billion Reserve Primary Fund, did something that wasn't supposed to happen in money-market funds: It "broke the buck," meaning its net asset value fell below $1 a share. A number of money-market funds had investments in both Lehman and AIG, and AIG was also a big insurer of the funds.
AIG was downgraded on the 15th, forcing it to post $14.5 billion in collateral – more than it had in liquid assets. Not being able to post the collateral would spell a collapse for the firm, and the domino effect of that collapse would be "catastrophic," the government determined, with staffers from the Fed and Treasury working through the night of the 15th to come up with a plan for the 16th. The president was briefed, and AIG's board agreed to the deal on the evening of the 16th.

Nobody wants pull out a checkbook every time he makes a purchase. Your debit card is your ticket to convenience so that you don't have to. When you swipe it, you've paid for your goods. However, debit cards usually only have as much buying power as you have money in your bank account.
Definition of Debits in Bank Accounts
A debit is any sum deducted from the balance in your account, and your debit card links to your account. If you have $500 in your checking account, you can use your debit card to purchase $500 of services or merchandise. When you make a purchase, the debit subtracts from that $500, usually immediately. Therefore, if you've written checks against the balance in your account, they're likely to bounce unless you have overdraft protection. When you use your debit card, it's not a loan from your bank; your bank won't charge you interest, but neither will they front you the money if you don't have it.
Does a Debit Card Repair Credit Like a Secured Credit Card?
If your credit history needs repair, having a debit card won't help. The card doesn't reflect on your borrowing or payment history because you're not borrowing money for the purchases you make with it. You're only accessing your own funds in a convenient way. On the other hand, secured credit card lenders report to the credit bureaus. You make a deposit with them as collateral so if you don't pay off what you owe, the lender can use the deposit to cover your purchases. If this happens, the lender will report your defaulted payments to the credit bureaus. By the same token, if you make regular payments, this is also reported and it will help repair your credit.
Can Debit Card Statements Be Used for Tax Receipts?
The Internal Revenue Service always wants proof of your deductible expenses – at least when you're audited. Because your debit card is tied to your bank account, your purchases will appear on your statements. This is acceptable proof for the IRS, provided you can substantiate the nature of the debit and provided the expense is deductible in the first place. Your debit card entries should show the location of the purchase, the date and the purchase price.
Does the New Credit Card Act Pertain to Debit Cards?
Two important legislative changes occurred in 2009 and 2010, affecting both debit cards and credit cards. However, they're two separate laws. Because debit cards and credit cards are two different things, the legislation doesn't overlap. Under the 2010 law affecting debit cards, banks can't charge you overdraft fees if you use your debit card for a purchase that exceeds your bank balance – unless you sign up for the convenience of being able to make purchases that will overdraw your account. If you don't elect this option, your bank will decline the transaction when you try to use your debit card because you don't have enough money in your account to cover it. The Credit Card Act of 2009 addresses interest rates and other credit variables that don't apply to debit cards.
How Long do Pending Transactions Last on Debit?
How long debit card transactions pend on your account depends on your bank. Each institution has its own procedure for how and when debits are paid, with an order of priority over other daily transactions. Typically, debit transactions receive high priority – your bank deducts the amount from your account right away. The difference usually reflects in your "available balance" versus your "current balance." Your current balance reflects your balance before the latest transactions post. For example, if you had $500, and you purchased $25 worth of gas with your debit card, your current balance would typically be $500 and your available balance would be $475. Your available balance is the "real" number. Banks often post transactions to your account in the evening, so the next morning, your available balance and current balance should be the same – your pending transaction has officially posted.

text: Heathens are people who were made to seek out places to live on The Heaths...swampy marshy lands that had no value because they were horrible places to live. They were forced there when they had their lands taken from them by noblemen working for The Church. It has come to mean a person who goes against the doctrines of the Christian Church. The Church would very often arrest and execute people who wrote literature, painted artworks, or indulged in any artform that they thought did not agree with what they thought people should know about. Anyone trying to embellish peoples knowledge of life via creative works would be deemed heretic and their works would be destroyed.So Bowie crossed his own work out because he is seen as a Heathen. A denial of Christianity or at least the Church's version of Christianity would indeed make him a Heathen in their eyes.The symbol of the fish can apparently been seen in Bowie's eyes on the front cover of Heathen. This symbol is a very well known Christian symbol that denotes your devotion as a Christian to Jesus. It is used because there are a few references in the Bible involving Fish/Fishing/Fishermen that Jesus concerned himself with. Christians would use the symbol to determine whether others were Christian. If they drew one side of the symbol, the other Christian would draw the other on greeting them. This was in times of persecution.However... I am wondering whether Bowie is using the Pre-Christian use of the symbol. It goes back before Jesus and has been a symbol used in mystery teachings from various religions including, India, China, Egypt, Rome, Scandinavia and Greece. It's usually associated with the Mother Goddess symbolising her vulva. Hence in this respect it would be a Heathen symbol rather than a Christian one. As Bowie seems to be aligning himself with Heathens then this is possibly how he is using the fish symbol. So it is indeed a nice ironic statement.(Although he may be suggesting he is a Heathen, this does not mean he is Athiest. He is Heathen in the eyes of The Church).David has mentioned in an interview that he chose the three books depicted in the album sleeve because these books totally changed our attitude to life and our world view in the 20th century.The three books depicted in the album sleeve are: The General Theory Of Relativity - Albert Einstein, The Interpretation of Dreams - Sigmund Freud and The Gay Science - Friedrich Nietzsche..... These three books propelled human thinking into the realm of humanism. They made people start to question whether their existence on this Earth is not a spiritual one but rather a very random and inconsequential one and whether we should all just take care of ourselves on a physical level instead of striving for something bigger on a spiritual level. These books helped to bring in the age of reason on a grand scale and put a halt to the idea that there is something bigger out there for us to aspire to spiritually. (I think he should have included writings by Rene Descartes too, who also has a lot to answer for in the disintegration of spiritualism). If we use empirical thought processes instead of gnostic searching for answers then we come to the conclusion that everything is physical and finite. ( I don't subscribe to this). But I think Bowie was questioning whether he should subscribe to these viewpoints, effectively turning his back on religion and more alarmingly, spirituality itself. This too would make him a Heathen in the eyes of The Church. Note, he is probably only wondering whether he should take on the stance of the three authors in question, there is no proof that he has yet. (Back to that Atheist thread...)Bowie desperately wants to be an Atheist but he can't quite bring himself to do it. If you notice from his last album to date written 5 years ago now, Reality has him writing about his constant searching for answers and never actually finding any. It shows he has become cynical and skeptical in his older years due to a process of too much self-questioning. Soul searching is very painful but being Atheist is quite peaceful for the soul:Never Get Old:Putting on my gloves and I bury my bones in the MarshlandMarshland- like the Heaths that Heathens had to live in.He's decided that's where his viewpoint lies.Think about my soul but I don't need a thing, just the ring of the bell in the pure clean airHe's questioned his spirituality but has decided that there's nothing more he needs to answer because he just needs to think about the now and his physical life here and how to be happy without questioning.New Killer Star: All My idiot questions, let's face the music and danceHe's sick of searching for answers and has decided that there's no answers to give to his questions anyway so let's just face it, there's nothing more to life than what we have on this planet in the present. Let's just have fun now and stop searching.The Loneliest Guy: No Sign, no nothing now, but I'm the luckiest guy, not the loneliest guyHe's not found any answers to his spiritual questions, he's had no sign that's there anything more to life. But he's come to accept this and can count himself lucky that he's living life peacefully without the searching.... because searching is painful and lonely.All the pages left unturned, all the errors left unlearned.He has not found his answers in books and cannot learn from his mistakes after so much searching and questioning.Looking For Water: But I lost God in a New York Minute, I don't know about you but my heart's not in it. I'm looking for water.He's lost the will to carry on with his spiritual search and his own ideas about God have left him bitter, leading him to Atheism. Yet he's still looking for something..something as intangible as flowing water.Leave it all behind, nothing will be foundJust stop searching you won't find any answers.Looking everywhere, looking here and there. I'm looking for water.Looking for the answers to life and the soul is like looking for something intangible.I can't live in this cage, I can't eat this candy. To the ends of the Earth, to this pain in my head...It's too difficult to keep questioning his soul, it's painful searching all the time and tiresome trying to get answers to the many thoughts in his head.Baby dumb is forever.Just stop questioning, you'll never get the answers and you'll always stay ignorant no matter how hard you try.Days: In red eyed pain I'm knocking on you door again, this crazy brain in tangles, pleading for your gentle voice.These storms keep pounding through my head and heart. I pray you'll soothe my sorry soul.Here he is possibly talking to his God again, he is desperate to believe in something. He has so many thoughts and questions and wants answers so the pain of searching will go away. He wants his God to talk to him again so he doesn't lose faith.Reality: Now my sight is failing in this twilight, now my death is more than just a sad songHe's getting older and hasn't got many more years left for this earth. He's losing the ability to see clearly about his faith in something bigger. Becoming Atheist.I still don't remember how this happened, still don't get the wherefores and the whys.He can't understand how he's lost his faith through all the searching.I look for sense but I get next to nothing. Welcome to reality.He keeps trying to makes sense of life and why we're here, he keeps asking questions and searching but still he never finds the answers. He's decided there are no answers because there is nothing more out there and no God as such. This is the reality of it all.I've been right and I've been wrong, now I'm back where I started from.He has come close to finding what he thought were answers to his questions about the soul and life then he's decided that those answers weren't right. And after all that questioning through his life, he's still no wiser.With Heathen, he questioned whether he should turn his back on religion and spiritual soul searching and with Reality he answers his own question. He essentially says he has. But with the song Days we can see that he still wants answers and still wants to believe...but too much of this questioning is hard to live by. Just live life and forget about the answers, it's easier that way.And so this has become his last album... he has no more questions and nothing left to write about. He's getting older and facing his own mortality and has decided to live his life as peacefully as he can with his family and reap the rewards he so deserves. If he decides to start questioning again...then perhaps we'll see a new album. And there's only so many songs you can write about New York anyway.

Florida House District 72: Pilon
Published: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 at 10:04 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 at 11:16 p.m.
SARASOTA - State Rep. Ray Pilon won a second term in the Legislature Tuesday after a campaign that emphasized his history of community involvement and public service.
The Republican, a former county commissioner, edged Democrat Liz Alpert — an attorney and newcomer to local politics — to represent House District 72, which covers most of northern Sarasota County and had leaned Democratic in past elections.
"I am just so, so grateful," Pilon told supporters Tuesday at a victory party for local Republicans.
Pilon raised more campaign money than Alpert and also received significant support from the Republican Party of Florida. He used the money to advertise aggressively by mail and on television.
A former sheriff's deputy and administrator with the regional water authority, Pilon emphasized his local roots while painting his opponent as out of touch with the community.
Alpert tried to tie Pilon to Gov. Rick Scott and paint him as too conservative for the district.
But while Pilon has largely sided with Scott and the Republican majority on major bills, his personal emphasis has been on reforming the criminal justice system and other issues that have generally received bipartisan support.

SPECULATOR - It looks as if Oak Mountain LLC owes seven months worth of property taxes on Oak Mountain Ski Center here.
Barry Baker, director of Hamilton County Real Property Tax Services, says Oak Mountain LLC was supposed to start paying taxes when it signed a sale agreement with the Hamilton County Industrial Development Agency Aug. 3, 2012 and up to when a payment in lieu of taxes agreement went into effect March 1 of this year.
According to Baker, "2013 town and county tax bills were issued for the [two] Oak Mt. properties Jan. 1. These bills included pro-rated taxes for the remainder of the 2012 tax year based on the effective date of the installment sale agreement, Aug. 3, 2012. These taxes remain unpaid."
Baker says a PILOT agreement was filed with the Town of Lake Pleasant assessor in February, effective March 1 for this year's July 1 Final Assessment Roll. "This will then be applied to the 2013-14 school taxes and the 2014 town and county taxes," he said.
Hamilton County Treasurer Beth Hunt says county and town taxes totaling $11,996 plus penalties and interest had not been paid as of last week. "The 2012 school taxes must have been paid," Hunt added, "since they were not re-levied onto 2013 taxes."
Oak owes no taxes to the Village of Speculator.
The IDA does not believe any taxes are due. It approved a PILOT agreement with Oak Mountain LLC in September of 2012.
In February Executive Director Ann Melious informed the board there was no need for a PILOT, because the IDA still owns the property and is a non-taxable entity.
"The IDA was advised by counsel [Kara Lais] that IDA-owned property is not subject to taxation," explained Chairman Brian Towers. "The current structured transaction with Oak Mountain does not change this exemption."
"When they take ownership, they will start paying taxes," Melious said.
Oak Mountain LLC -- Kevin and Elizabeth O'Brien and their son and daughter-in-law Matt and Laura O'Brien -- has an installment sale agreement with the IDA under which it will actually purchase the property Aug. 3, 2014.
"The sale will be a separate transaction, taking place when the investment conditions of the agreement have been fulfilled," according to Melious.
"An installment sale agreement is neither a sale nor a lease," Melious says. "It is an economic development project instrument."
Baker says the IDA is wrong.
In general, Baker wrote in a letter dated March 12, under Real Property Tax Law "after the filing and attesting to the Final Assessment Roll on July 1 [of each year] a municipal assessor is legally prohibited from making changes, alterations or corrections to the assessed or taxable values on the roll."
An exception is when property receiving wholly or partially tax-exempt status is transferred after taxable status date to a non-exempt owner. Real Property Tax Law requires a pro-rata tax be imposed in this case.
"This was the case with Oak Mountain," Baker wrote. Once the assessment roll became the tax roll, "there was simply no other action that the assessor or Board of Assessment Review could take with regard to [Oak Mt.] in this assessment cycle!"
Baker says the property was transferred with the installment sale agreement. The IDA insists it was not.
"The law is well settled that a purchaser in possession under a contract of sale (title being retained in the seller notwithstanding) is deemed to be the owner for purposes of taxation," Baker wrote.

The URDG 758 Compared with ISP98 and UCP600 - Webinar
- July 2010
- 450 Minutes
- Institute of International Banking Law & Practice
The Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees (URDG 758) approved by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) entered into force in July 2010. Many banks are requested to take counter guarantees that are subject to URDG 758 and to issue local guarantees subject to the rules. To help specialists gain understanding of URDG 758, this 7.5 hour programme available as a 4-disc DVD set features presentation slides and an objective audio analysis by a lawyer who is intimately familiar with guarantee & standby practice.
Throughout its in-depth look at URDG's treatment of Introductory Issues, Obligations, Examinations, Compliance, Extend & Pay, and Miscellaneous Issues, this programme compares these rules to the International Standby Practices (ISP98) and Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP600).
"The URDG 758 Compared with ISP98 and UCP600" confronts questions regarding the URDG 758 rules that should not be overlooked, including:
- The hidden documentary request in URDG 758: Is it a trap for "simple demand guarantees"?
- In what ways does URDG 758 represent a significant improvement compared to URDG 458?
- What are URDG's many advantages over UCP600 for guarantees?
- Does the URDG offer direction in most "extend or pay" situations?
- Is the URDG slanted in favour of the applicant?
- Does the URDG increase the risk of guarantors being precluded?
- Do the "Force Majeure" rules realistically protect beneficiaries?
- What are the possible candidates for exclusion from the rules?
- What is the purpose of requiring a notice without delay that documents have been presented?
- How is URDG useful for standard performance guarantees?
- How are URDG's choice of law and jurisdiction provisions useful? SHOW LESS READ MORE >

Medical Editor: John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Cutivate (fluticasone propionate) Lotion is a topical (for the skin) steroid used to treat the inflammation and itching caused by a number of skin conditions such as allergic reactions, eczema, and psoriasis. Cutivate Lotion is available in generic form. Common side effects of Cutivate Lotion include:
- mild skin itching
- burning
- peeling
- dryness
- changes in color of treated skin
- headache
- thinning or softening of skin, skin rash or irritation around mouth
- swollen hair follicles
- blisters
- pimples
- crusting of treated skin, or
- stretch marks
The recommended dose is to apply a thin film of Cutivate Lotion to the affected skin areas once daily. Rub in gently. It is not likely other drugs you take orally or inject will have an effect on topically applied Cutivate. Tell your doctor all medications and supplements you use. During pregnancy, Cutivate should be used only if prescribed. It may be harmful to a fetus. It is unknown if this drug passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding.

(Adverse Reactions)
The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling:
- HPA Axis Suppression and Other Adverse Endocrine Effects [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
- Local Adverse Reactions [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
- Concomitant Skin Infections [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
Clinical Trials Experience: Controlled Clinical Trials
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
In 2 multicenter vehicle-controlled clinical trials of once-daily application of CUTIVATE® Lotion by 196 adult and 242 pediatric patients, the total incidence of adverse reactions considered drug related by investigators was approximately 4%. These were local cutaneous reactions, usually mild and self-limiting, and consisted primarily of burning/stinging (2%). All other drug-related events occurred with an incidence of less than 1%, and included were contact dermatitis, exacerbation of atopic dermatitis, folliculitis of legs, pruritus, pustules on arm, rash, and skin infection. See Table 1.
The incidence of adverse reactions between the 242 pediatric subjects (age 3 months to < 17 years) and 196 adult subjects (17 years or older) was similar (4% and 5%, respectively).

Clinical Trials Experience: Pediatric Open Label Trials
In an open label HPA axis suppression trial of 44 pediatric subjects (ages ≥3 months to ≤ 6 years) CUTIVATE® Lotion was applied twice daily (rather than the indicated dosing regimen of once daily) to at least 35% of body surface area for 3 or 4 weeks. Subjects whose lesions cleared after 2 or 3 weeks of treatment continued to apply CUTIVATE® Lotion for an additional week. The overall incidence of adverse reactions was 14%. These were local, cutaneous reactions and included dry skin (7%), stinging at application site (5%), and excoriation (2%). Additionally, a 4-month-old patient treated with CUTIVATE® Lotion had marked elevations of the hepatic enzymes AST and ALT. [see Use in Specific Populations]
In another open label HPA axis suppression trial in which CUTIVATE® Lotion was also applied twice daily (rather than the indicated dosing regimen of once daily), 56 pediatric subjects (ages ≥3 months to 12 months), were enrolled [see Use in Specific Populations].
The adverse reactions included 2 cases of Herpes simplex at the application site (3.6%) and 3 cases of bacterial skin infections (5.4%).
Postmarketing Experience
The following local adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of CUTIVATE® Lotion: erythema, edema/swelling, and bleeding.
The following systemic adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of CUTIVATE® Cream and CUTIVATE® Ointment: immunosuppression/Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia/leukopenia/thrombocytopenia; hyperglycemia/ glycosuria; Cushing syndrome; generalized body edema/blurred vision; and acute urticarial reaction (edema, urticaria, pruritus, and throat swelling).
The following local adverse reactions have also been reported with the use of topical corticosteroids, and they may occur more frequently with the use of occlusive dressings or higher potency corticosteroids. These reactions include: acneiform eruptions, hypopigmentation, perioral dermatitis, skin atrophy, striae, hypertrichosis and miliaria.
Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

Honorable Mention - Top 10 Finalist - Lukas Sullivan - Redesign Your School Athletic Pavilion | 2014 National High School Architecture Competition #153
What's the problem here? Getting started on your athletic pavilion design.Show Hide
Advanced Technologies Academy is a magnet school in Las Vegas, Nevada. With a large focus towards technology, most of the school's funds and efforts go towards maintaining the academic merit of the school. Because of this, one thing that has been overlooked when planning the assets of the school is a practical athletic facility. The existing gymnasium is separated from the main building and has the approximate dimensions of 150' X 150'. Being this size, the gym is not large enough to support the class sizes at the school. Also, the space planning of the gym is not efficient, meaning that it is hard for classes to use all of the allotted time in one period. An example of this is the distance between the men's locker room and the field. The distance is much more than it needs to be and causes a huge inconvenience.
Problem to solve: The main focus of this design is to boost the efficiency of the building to where it is coherent with the needs of the classes. In the process, extra spaces and activities can be added to increase the amount of things that teachers can do with their PE classes. Building efficiency will also be taken into account because of its impact on the cost of the building. The goal overall is to create an open space for PE class and school assemblies.
Solution to problem: As stated previously, the main focus point is the open space where the basketball courts are placed. This is important because of the fact that this is where a majority of the activities will take place. Proper seating is placed to support basketball games as well as school assemblies. Locker rooms are placed in close proximity to the field to allow for efficiency of dressing out and starting class. The second level includes an open space where tables can be placed to create a learning environment as well as a lounging environment. Overall, the space planning was designed to keep related rooms close to each other. The structure of the building consists of basic vertical walls for the "wings" of the building, and curved walls for the back of the open area on the first level. The organic roof design is made to be modified upon the need for more or less shade in a specific area corresponding with the curtain systems. The curtain systems are oriented to let light in, but leave heat out. This helps in the Las Vegas climate because any amount of heat let into a building can affect its energy efficiency substantially. The field is being encompassed by the building because the building can serve as shading for that space. Also, the field is right by the locker rooms creating an efficient flow of students throughout the space.

Long live the King & I Thai
CHRISTINA SCHMITT | Updated 12/12/2012
Thai bastion closes Sunday; nightly DJ sets sending it off.
The King & I Thai lounge
Monday night, the King & I Thai restaurant (1346 LaSalle Av., Mpls., www.kingandithai.com) was buzzing, with a stylish crowd eating spicy curry and listening to Japanese punk. But the party came with a twinge of melancholy: After 32 years, the family-run Loring Park business will close its doors this Sunday — a day earlier than previously announced. Bar manager Geoffrey Trelstad said inventory is now bare-bones due to overwhelming last-minute patronage from the restaurant's fans.
On most nights since the King & I moved to its current location on LaSalle 12 years ago, you'd see the 6-foot-5 Trelstad in the restaurant's swanky lounge, pouring a passion fruit martini, his head almost hitting the low ceiling. He says business has been good for husband-wife owners Gary and Bou Haanpaa. However, their lease of the space is ending, Haanpaa said, and they were unable to negotiate a new one. So they're retiring , Trelstad said, although he has a tough time imagining a retired Bou. "She is a passionate, creative and profound force in the kitchen," he said.
The restaurant's take on Thai cuisine (No. 3 on Vita.mn's 2012 "Best Thai: list) was great, but there was more to the King & I's allure. It's like a warm cave: There are no windows, and candles are the dominant light source. Carved elephants and Thai goddesses gaze upon you. Corners throughout the space absorb large parties — and there always seems to be a party.
Trelstad says a decade ago, he and co-worker Christa Robinson and general manager Andrew Riebel envisioned the place like a cool Lower East Side bar. Trelstad said the DJ booth is an installation; the DJs, music curators.
Many DJs have shown up to play their music over the years, mostly vinyl on two turntables. You'd see folks from Treehouse Records, Radio K and the Current alongside other music fans, playing anything from international music to electronica, hip-hop to jazz, soul to punk. Last Friday, it was DJ Father Time (age 50) vs. his daughter DJ Soul Mama Maria (21), who proudly cued up her 45 of "96 Tears."
The King's final DJ sets continue all weekend (7 p.m.-1 a.m. nightly), with Sara Jean Hanson, King Otto, Buck K.A.C. and Croix Clayton on Thursday; Dean Vaccaro, Joseph Pettini, Jesus Juice, Al Davis and Chuck Love on Friday; and New York City's Fun Boys on Saturday.
And for Sunday's closing night? "Expect an amazing night of music," Trelstad promised. Will do.
