3 Days in Key West
Beautiful Key West
My Love Affair With Key West
We stopped for a few scoops, good stuff and there were seats near the back so you could relax and get away for the hustle and bustle of Duval street.
AS the name states, the gelato was good but what surprised us was the pizza. It was excellent. Great sauce and toppings. Pick on up or have it delivered. Great late night snack.
After a long bike ride from our campsite on Stock Island my husband and I were hungry. We happened to stop at a red light and look over to see this wonderful place. My husband got the lamb shwarma (gyro) and I got the Cuban sandwich. Both were delicious. Definately don't pass this place up if you're looking for a...
The chicken shawarma with hummus sauce ROCKS! Late night eating at it's best....YUMMY! My husband thought his slice was almost as good as New York pizza. Definitely worth a try!
Got two bagels for breakfast.
Was decent. Not to pricey and open early enough to grab something before heading to the beach.
While biking and enjoying KW, we found this ice cream parlor to enjoy some key lime ice cream (for me) and it was good, reasonably priced and available from the street (in our case) or going inside to enjoy it.
This food is the most amazing place in Key West...not kidding! The Gyros and wraps are out of this world delicious! We come here to eat every visit to Key West. It has been so good that we have not had the need to try something new. LOVE IT! You must go here....you will not be dissappointed. The staff are...
The young girl that waited on us was friendly and very informative. Service was fast and the place was spacious for the area and very clean had a good selection of items
Been there a couple times. Always pleasant service and great food. Their sandwiches are to die for. The restaurant owner Bob was amazing person to talk to.
We ate here several times while visiting Key West for a week. We liked this place as it was conveniently located, staffed by a nice, hard working family, had lots of dining options, and reasonably priced. We ended up ordering a Gyro, a Greek salad, Pistachio gelato, peanut butter gelato, and some drinks over the course of several nights and...

Time For Reflection
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
Sunday, June 15th is "Fathers Day" in the United States, and while I have never been married and have no "blood-line" children of my own, my favorite breakfast restaurant was overflowing with families celebrating and this has caused a bit of reflection.
For those of you who are parents and are hunched over your computer terminal today (or tomorrow, or the next day), take the time to reach out to your family and show them you love them.
For those of you who are not parents think about volunteering to talk about Free Software, or even software in general, at a local school or youth organization.
Even though it is "Fathers Day", I also make these suggestions for females and those who consider themselves too young to have children.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, PLAINTIFF,v.L.C. RICHARDSON, DEFENDANT.
This matter comes before the Court on defendant L.C. Richardson's pro se motions for a reduction of his criminal sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual ("U.S.S.G.") § 1B1.10 (Docs. 79 & 81). The Court appointed counsel for Richardson, and counsel has moved to withdraw on the basis that she can make no non-frivolous arguments in support of the defendant's request (Doc. 83). See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967). The government has responded to the motions (Doc. 85). Richardson has not responded to the motion, although he was given an opportunity to do so.
Richardson pled guilty to one count of conspiring to distribute crack cocaine and one count of possessing with intent to distribute crack cocaine. At sentencing, the Court found by a preponderance of the evidence that Richardson's relevant conduct was at least 150 grams but less than 500 grams of crack cocaine, which under U.S.S.G.*fn1 § 2D1.1 yielded a base offense level of 34. His offense level was increased by two points under U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(b)(1) for possessing a firearm during the offense and was reduced by three points under U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1 for acceptance of responsibility. The Court further found that Richardson was a career offender under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1 based on prior drug or violent felony convictions, which raised his base offense level to 37, again reduced by 3 to 34 for acceptance of responsibility. Considering Richardson's criminal history category of VI, established by his career offender status under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1, this yielded a sentencing range of 262 to 327 months in prison. The Court imposed a sentence of 327 months for each count. Richardson now asks the Court to apply recent changes to U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1 to lower his sentence.
Section 3582(c)(2) allows the Court to reduce a defendant's previously imposed sentence where "a defendant . . . has been sentenced to a term of imprisonment based on a sentencing range that has subsequently been lowered by the Sentencing Commission pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 994(o)." In doing so, the Court must consider the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) and must ensure that any reduction "is consistent with applicable policy statements issued by the Sentencing Commission." 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Thus, a defendant urging a sentence reduction under § 3582(c)(2) must satisfy two criteria: (1) the Sentencing Commission must have lowered the applicable guideline sentencing range, and (2) the reduction must be consistent with applicable policy statements issued by the Sentencing Commission. If the defendant cannot satisfy the first criterion, the Court has no subject matter jurisdiction to consider the reduction request. United States v. Lawrence, 535 F.3d 631, 637-38 (7th Cir. 2008); see United States v. Forman, 553 F.3d 585, 588 (7th Cir.), cert. denied, 129 S.Ct. 2817 (2009).
Richardson cannot satisfy the first criterion because he was not "sentenced to a term of imprisonment based on a sentencing range that has subsequently been lowered by the Sentencing Commission pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 994(o)." 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Amendments 706 and 711 amended U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(c) as of November 1, 2007, to lower by two points the base offense levels associated with various amounts of crack cocaine. The Sentencing Commission amended U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(c) intending to alter the disparity in sentences involving crack cocaine and sentences involving powder cocaine. Richardson, however, was sentenced based on his base offense level set forth in U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1, not his base offense level set forth in U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1. See Forman, 553 F.3d at 589-90. Thus, his guideline range has not been lowered, and he cannot satisfy the first criterion under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) for obtaining a sentence reduction.
Because Richardson cannot satisfy the first criterion under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) for obtaining a sentence reduction, the Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction to consider his reduction request. See Forman, 553 F.3d at 588; Lawrence, 535 F.3d at 637-38. The Court therefore GRANTS counsel's motion to withdraw (Doc. 83) and DISMISSES Richardson's motions for a sentence reduction (Docs. 79 & 81) for lack of jurisdiction.
The Clerk of the U.S. District Court is hereby DIRECTED to mail a copy of this order to defendant L.C. Richardson, Reg. No. 04169-025, USP Coleman 1, P.O. Box 1033, Coleman, FL 33521.

Bought this bike on 3-6-2011, after touring and enjoying beauty of Pakistan on this machine for almost 4 years i finally decided to swap engine to bigger displacement as a i tumbled upon a good deal.
My bikes engine was already in a bad condition, as it was consuming oil and didn't go beyond 100km/h most of the times. Nonetheless the engine was still performing well and would have served me good for another 1 years without any major problems.
I seized this opportunity to get a 250cc engine from Lahore via link of @vickytulla. Another reason to opt for engine swap is a bolt on fit. i didnt wanted any changes in frame so it was a good opportunity.
I will start this thread in sequence so that everything is clear and give proper instructions, do and dont's in case someone is willing for a swap.
Final Product after engine swap.

On August 16, 2004, six shareholders ("Plaintiffs") of seven mutual funds managed by Lord Abbett filed a complaint, entitled "Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint" (hereinafter, the "Class Action Complaint" or "C.A.C."), against Lord Abbett, its partners and directors, the trustees of Lord Abbett-sponsored funds, Lord Abbett Distributor, and certain other "John Doe" Defendants. Also named as nominal defendants were more than fifty separate mutual funds managed by Lord Abbett. Plaintiffs' Class Action Complaint alleged claims arising out of Lord Abbett's broker compensation practices between February 1999 and December 2003. In particular, Plaintiffs alleged that, during that time, Lord Abbett compensated brokers excessively as an incentive to steer new investors into Lord Abbett mutual funds.
The Class Action Complaint, as its name suggests, fashioned itself as purporting a federal class action. In fact, the first paragraph of the Class Action Complaint announced that it was setting forth "a federal class action complaint based upon the failure of defendant Lord Abbett ... to disclose excessive fees and commissions they siphoned from Lord Abbett mutual fund investors in order to improperly pay and induce brokers to steer investors into Lord Abbett mutual funds." (C.A.C. ¶ 1.) The Class Action Complaint then alleged ten counts based upon State and Federal law. Specifically, Counts One through Four purported to assert class action claims under §§ 34(b), 36(a), 36(b), and 48(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("ICA"), 15 U.S.C. § 80a-1 et seq., respectively.(C.A.C. ¶¶ 142-168.)Count Five, which incorporated Counts One through Four, sought to rescind Lord Abbett's advisory contracts under § 215 of the Investment Adviser Act of 1940 ("IAA"), 15 U.S.C. § 80b-1 et seq. (C.A.C. ¶¶ 169-176.) Count Six attempted to allege one claim under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, N.J.S.A. 56:8-1 et seq. (C.A.C. ¶¶ 177-178.) Finally, Counts Seven through Ten purported to assert various class action claims under state law.*fn1 (C.A.C. ¶¶ 179-198.)
On August 30, 2005, the Court dismissed Counts One through Five for failure to state a claim. In re Lord Abbett Mut. Funds Fee Litig., 385 F. Supp. 2d 471, 480-82, 485-91 (D.N.J. 2005), amended by 407 F. Supp. 2d 616, 625-26, 629-35 (D.N.J. 2005). In addition, the Court dismissed Plaintiffs' state law claims in Counts Seven through Ten as preempted by SLUSA.*fn2 In re Lord Abbett, 385 F. Supp. 2d at 482-84; In re Lord Abbett, 407 F. Supp. 2d at 626-29. The Court also dismissed Plaintiffs' class action allegations in Counts Three and Four, which attempted to assert claims under §§ 36(b) and 48(a) of the ICA, because no direct cause of action exists under those statutes. In re Lord Abbett, 385 F. Supp. 2d at 488-89; In re Lord Abbett, 407 F. Supp. 2d 632-34. The Court, though, dismissed Counts Three and Four without prejudice and granted Plaintiffs leave to replead them derivatively. In response, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, entitled "Second Amended Derivative Complaint," purporting to assert derivative claims under §§ 36(b) and 48(a).
Defendants later moved for reconsideration of the Court's decision. In their motion, Defendants argued, inter alia,that because Plaintiffs employed the class action device to assert their claims, the Court's dismissal of Counts Seven through Ten under SLUSA required the dismissal of the entire class action, including Counts Three and Four. In support of this argument, Defendants cited the Third Circuit's decision in Rowinski v. Solomon Smith Barney Inc., 398 F.3d 294 (3d Cir. 2005), which indicated in dicta that SLUSA may require dismissal of an entire class action where one or more claims in the class action are preempted under the Act.
The Court, though, denied this motion. In re Lord Abbett Mut. Fund Fee Litig., 417 F. Supp. 2d 624 (D.N.J. 2005). Regarding Defendants' argument under Rowinski, the Court held that, because the Third Circuit's discussion of this issue was contained in dicta, it did not constitute controlling law overlooked by the Court. Id. at 629-30. Accordingly, the Court held that Plaintiffs did not satisfy their burden for reconsideration. Id. at 630. Defendants followed our ruling by filing a "motion for clarification." In this motion, Defendants asked the Court whether, in denying their motion for reconsideration, we implicitly determined that preemption of one claim under SLUSA did not require dismissal of the entire class action. If we did not reach this determination, Defendants asked the Court to grant them leave to brief the issue for our de novo consideration.
In an unpublished Order, the Court informed Defendants that our ruling on their motion for reconsideration did not implicitly determine whether preemption of one count in a class action complaint under SLUSA required the dismissal of the entire class action. Instead, the Court reiterated that our Opinion and Order denying reconsideration merely held that Rowinski did not constitute a controlling decision overlooked by the Court, and therefore did not constitute sufficient grounds for reconsideration. The Court, though, granted Defendants' alternative request to brief the issue for our de novo consideration. The present motion followed, which is presently before the Court.
While the Court is mindful that it previously granted Plaintiffs leave to replead Counts Three and Four as derivative claims, and that Plaintiffs filed their Second Amended Derivative Complaint in response, the Court now must reverse course on its decision. When Plaintiffs originally brought their action, they did so by employing the class action device. Each count was contained in a class action complaint and each count pled claims on behalf of the class, including Counts Three and Four.*fn3 As such, once we found Counts Seven through Ten preempted by SLUSA, we were required to dismiss the entire class action, including Counts Three and Four, and not grant Plaintiffs leave to file a new complaint alleging an entirely new and different action. This is clear not only from the statutory text of SLUSA, but also from the considered dicta by the Third Circuit in Rowinski. Therefore, because the Court erred in allowing Plaintiffs leave to amend Counts Three and Four of their Class Action Complaint and file an entirely new non-class action, the Court will now vacate its prior decision allowing Plaintiffs to replead those Counts. Instead, the Court will dismiss the entire action under SLUSA. The following discussion explains why.
In their brief, Defendants argue that SLUSA's preemption of "actions," rather than "claims," compels dismissal of the entire case. The relevant portion of SLUSA, upon which they rely, states:
Class Action Limitations. No covered class action based upon the statutory or common law of any State or subdivision thereof may be maintained in any State or Federal court by any party alleging ... a misrepresentation or omission of a material fact in connection with the purchase or sale of a covered security; or ... that the defendant used or employed any manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance in connection with the purchase or sale of a covered security.
15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(1) (2006). According to Defendants, Congress's authorization of removal and preemption of certain "covered class actions," rather than mere "claims," "counts," or "allegations" in a class action complaint, was not mere scrivener's error. They argue that this language mandates dismissal of entire class actions where the complaint contains one or more SLUSA-preempted claims.
Defendants find support for this proposition in Rowinski v. Salomon Smith Barney Inc., 398 F.3d 294 (3d Cir. 2005). In Rowinski, plaintiff filed a class action lawsuit in state court alleging that defendant's dissemination of biased investment research constituted a breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and violation of state consumer protection laws. Id. at 296. Defendant removed the action to the Middle District of Pennsylvania, which dismissed plaintiff's complaint under SLUSA. Id. at 297. Defendant then appealed.
On appeal, the Third Circuit first found plaintiff's breach of contract claim preempted under SLUSA. Id. at 302-04. Then, the court examined whether preemption of this claim affected plaintiff's remaining claims. On this point, the court remarked: "[u]nder the statutory language [of SLUSA], inclusion of these preempted claims within the putative class compels dismissal of the entire action." Id. at 304 (citing 15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(1)) (emphasis added). The court, though, eventually stated:
[P]laintiff contends we should examine each count in the complaint separately to determine whether it is preempted ... As an initial matter, we question whether preemption of certain counts and remand of others is consistent with the plain meaning of SLUSA. The statute does not preempt particular "claims" or "counts" but rather preempts "actions," 15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(1), suggesting that if any claims alleged in a covered class action are preempted, the entire action must be dismissed. But we need not decide whether a count-by-count analysis is appropriate in this case, because plaintiff has incorporated every allegation into every count in his complaint. Our SLUSA analysis therefore applies to each of plaintiff's counts, and compels the conclusion that each is preempted.
Id. at 305 (internal citations omitted). Accordingly, the Third Circuit affirmed the dismissal of plaintiff's entire complaint. Id.
As exhibited by the paragraph above, the Third Circuit in Rowinski did not actually decide whether preemption of one claim under SLUSA requires dismissal of the entire action. Instead, the court resolved the issue by reading plaintiff's complaint as incorporating every allegation into every other count, thereby rendering each count preempted by SLUSA. Id. Only one other decision in our circuit has applied Rowinski to a similar situation, and the result was identical. In LaSala v. Bordier et CEI, No. 05-4520, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 64839 (D.N.J. Sept. 11, 2006), plaintiffs alleged violations of state aiding and abetting laws, along with violations of Swiss money laundering laws. The court in LaSala first found plaintiffs' state aiding and abetting claims precluded under SLUSA. Id. at *34. Then, applying Rowinski, the courtheld that SLUSA precluded plaintiffs' Swiss law claims because plaintiffs' complaint incorporated the aiding and abetting counts into the Swiss law counts. Id. at *36-39. Accordingly, thedistrict court dismissed the entire action.
Rowinski and LaSala, though,are distinguishable from the instant case. Unlike the plaintiffs in those cases, Plaintiffs here did not incorporate their SLUSA preempted claims into their non-preempted claims. Nevertheless, Rowinski and LaSala are still helpful. Both provide strong support, albeit in dicta, for the proposition that SLUSA preempts entire class actions rather than individual claims.*fn4 See Rowinski, 398 F.3d at 305 (noting that SLUSA suggests "that if any claims alleged in a covered class action are preempted, the entire action must be dismissed.") (emphasis added); LaSala, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 64839, at *36 (noting that "the Third Circuit has indicated [in Rowinski] that SLUSA preempts actions, not claims.") (emphasis added).*fn5 No definitive holding on this issue exists in our Circuit, though. Therefore, the Court must resolve this issue.
1. The Statutory Text of SLUSA
The first step in determining whether preclusion of one claim under SLUSA requires dismissal of the entire complaint is to examine the statutory language of the Act itself. The Court's role in interpreting a statute, such as SLUSA, is to give effect to Congress's intent. See Negonsott v. Samuels, 507 U.S. 99, 104 (1993) (citing Griffin v. Oceanic Contractors, Inc., 458 U.S. 564, 570 (1982)). "Because it is presumed that Congress expresses its intent through the ordinary meaning of its language, every exercise of statutory interpretation begins with [the] plain language of the statute itself." Fresh v. Advantage Produce, 157 F.3d 197, 202 (3d Cir. 1998) (citations omitted). "Where the statutory text is plain and unambiguous, further inquiry is not required, except in the extraordinary case where a literal reading of the language produces an absurd result." Id. (citing Santa Fe Med. Servs., Inc. v. Segal (In re Segal), 57 F.3d 342, 345 (3d Cir. 1995)). "Moreover, a court may depart from the plain language of a statute only by an extraordinary showing of a contrary congressional intent in the legislative history." Id. (citing Garcia v. United States, 469 U.S. 70, 75 (1984)). With these principles in mind, we will begin our analysis of the statutory language.
First, by SLUSA's own terms, the Act preempts more than just "claims," "counts," or "allegations," in a complaint. Preemption instead applies to any "covered class action." 15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(1). SLUSA then defines the phrase "covered class action" broadly as encompassing "any single lawsuit" or any "group of lawsuits" meeting certain class action requirements. See 15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(5)(B)(i)-(ii) (emphasis added).*fn6 That Congress chose to define a "covered class action" as "any single lawsuit" or "any group of lawsuits" supports the view that Congress intended SLUSA to regulate more than just claims, counts, or allegations in a complaint. Instead, it intended SLUSA to regulate entire lawsuits. In addition, the commonly understood definition of the word "action," as used in the phrase "covered class action," further signals Congress's intent to broadly define SLUSA's preemptive scope. If Congress intended SLUSA to preempt only claims, counts, or allegations in a complaint, it presumably would have employed more narrower terms than "action."*fn7 However, it did not. Rather, Congress chose to use the phrase "class action," indicating that it purposefully intended SLUSA to preempt more than mere claims in a complaint.
Furthermore, comparing SLUSA to its companion statute, the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("PSLRA"), 15 U.S.C. §§ 77z-1, 78u, indicates that Congress's use of the word "action," rather than more narrower terms, may have been intentional. Whereas SLUSA refers only to "actions," see 15 U.S.C. §§ 78bb(a), (c), (f)(1)-(5), the PSLRA makes numerous references to the term "claim," see 15 U.S.C. §§ 77z-1(a)(3)(A)(i)(I), (a)(3)(A)(ii). In fact, in a few sections of the PSLRA, Congress expressly differentiated the term "claim" from the term "action." See 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(a)(3)(A)(i)(I) (requiring notice to class members of "the pendency of the action, the claims asserted therein, and the purported class period.") (emphasis added); 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(a)(3)(A)(ii) (discussing notice requirements "if more than one action on behalf of a class asserting substantially the same claim or claims....") (emphasis added); 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(a)(7)(B)(i) (explaining requirements for disclosing settlement of "each claim" to class members). This shows that Congress, in the PSLRA, apparently viewed the term "action" as encompassing a party's various "claims." Of course, the PSLRA and SLUSA are different acts. However, Congress likely knew the contents of the former when drafting the latter since Congress explicitly passed SLUSA in 1998 to correct loopholes left open by the PSLRA, which Congress passed a mere three years earlier.*fn8 See Smith v. City of Jackson, Miss., 544 U.S. 228, 233 (2005) (emphasizing the "premise that when Congress uses the same language in two statutes having similar purposes, particularly when one is enacted shortly after the other, it is appropriate to presume that Congress intended that text to have the same meaning in both statutes"); see also See 15 U.S.C. § 78a (noting Congress's intent in enacting SLUSA as furthering the PSLRA's goals);H.R. Conf. Rep. No. 105-803 (1998) (describing SLUSA's purpose "as to protect the interest of shareholders and employees of public companies that are the target of meritless 'strike suits.'").
As the foregoing shows, SLUSA's statutory language clearly supports the Third Circuit's dictum in Rowinski -- namely, that SLUSA preempts entire class actions, and not mere claims in a complaint.*fn9
2. Dabit v. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith, Inc.
As of the date of this Opinion, only one other circuit has examined the issue presently before the Court. In Dabit v. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith, Inc., 395 F.3d 25 (2d Cir. 2005) [hereinafter "Dabit I"], the Second Circuit held that SLUSA does not preempt claims based solely on the retention of securities (i.e., "holders claims"). In reaching this holding, the Second Circuit stated that the Supreme Court's decision in Blue Chip Stamps v. Manor Drug Stores, 421 U.S. 723 (1975), which restricted the remedy under § 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. § 78j(b), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, 17 CFR § 240.10b-5, to actual purchases or sales of securities (i.e., the "purchaser-seller rule"), operated as a limit on the preemptive scope of SLUSA. Id. at 44.
Under this analysis, the Second Circuit dismissed some of plaintiff's claims as preempted by SLUSA, but did not dismiss certain other claims. See Dabit I, 395 F.3d at 28. The Court then discussed the consequence of only dismissing some of plaintiff's claims under SLUSA. The court stated:
[SLUSA] might be read to suggest that where a single complaint contains claims that include allegations triggering preemption and other claims that do not, SLUSA prohibits maintenance of the entire action. On this reading, SLUSA would effectively preempt any state law claim conjoined in a given case with a securities fraud claim, whatever its nature. We assume, however, that the historic police powers of the states are not preempted unless it was Congress's "clear and manifest purpose" to do so. [Milwaukee v. Ill., 451 U.S. 304, 316 (1980)] (internal quotation omitted). Thus we decline to read SLUSA as such an imprecise instrument. See, e.g., [Falkowski v. Imation Corp., 309 F.3d 1123, 1131-32 (9th Cir. 2002)] (affirming dismissal of preempted fraud claims but permitting maintenance of remaining contract claims). As we have already noted, SLUSA's language and legislative history indicate no intent to preempt categories of state action that do not represent "federal flight" litigation. We therefore reverse so much of the district court's order as dismissed the lost commissions claim and remand it for further proceedings.
Dabit I, 395 F.3d at 47. Accordingly, the Second Circuit held that SLUSA's preemption any "covered class action" did not mandate dismissal of the entire action.
On appeal, the Supreme Court vacated the Second Circuit's decision, holding that SLUSA preempted holders claims. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc. v. Dabit, 126 S.Ct. 1503 (2006) [hereinafter "Dabit II"]. The Court, though, did not specifically address whether preemption of one claim under the Act required dismissal of the entire action.*fn10 However, the Court undercut the Second Circuit's reasoning on this issue. In particular, the Court implicitly rejected the Second Circuit's view, permeating its entire opinion, that SLUSA's statutory language should be subjected to an artificial narrowing construction based upon a presumption against preemption. See id. at 1513 ("The presumption that Congress envisioned a broad construction follows not only from ordinary principles of statutory construction but also from the particular concerns that culminated in SLUSA's enactment. A narrow reading of the statute would undercut the effectiveness of the [PSLRA] and thus run contrary to SLUSA's stated purpose...."). Furthermore, the Court in Dabit II expressly stated that "the general presumption that Congress does not cavalierly preempt state-law causes of action .... carries less force" in the SLUSA context. Dabit II, 126 S.Ct. at 1514. This is so, the Court remarked, because "SLUSA does not actually pre-empt any state cause of action .... [but rather] [i]t simply denies plaintiffs the right to use the class action device to vindicate certain claims." Id. Notably, this presumption against the preemption of state law claims was the sole basis in Dabit I for the Second Circuit's holding that SLUSA does not preempt entire actions. See id. at 47 ("We assume, however, that the historic police powers of the states are not preempted unless it was Congress's 'clear and manifest purpose' to do so. Thus, we decline to read SLUSA as such an imprecise instrument."). Therefore, this Court can only conclude that the Supreme Court weakened, if not undercut entirely, the Second Circuit's reasoning in Dabit I that SLUSA only preempts claims and not entire actions.
3. Reading SLUSA in this Manner Does Not Produce Absurd Results
Plaintiffs argue that reading SLUSA as preempting entire actions would essentially produce absurd results. First, they argue that the Court's prior decision, which held that Plaintiffs' § 36(b) claim may only be maintained derivatively, means that their § 36(b) claims are, and always were, derivative. Therefore, Plaintiffs argue that their §§ 36(b) and 48(a) claims are not a "covered class action" and consequently fall outside the scope of SLUSA.
The Court disagrees. Under the plain language of SLUSA, it is irrelevant whether Plaintiffs could only maintain their §§ 36(b) and 48(a) claims derivatively. The fact is that Plaintiffs pled these claims as part of their Class Action Complaint. Therefore, dismissal of Counts Seven through Ten under SLUSA required dismissal of the entire class action, including Plaintiffs' §§ 36(b) and 48(a) claims.
Plaintiffs also argue that other courts have allowed the dismissal state law claims under SLUSA while upholding §§ 36(b) and 48(a) claims. See, e.g., In re Dreyfus Mut. Funds Fee Litig., 428 F. Supp. 2d 342 (W.D. Pa. 2005); In re Mut. Funds Fee Litig., 384 F. Supp. 2d 845 (D. Md. 2005). They argue, therefore, that this Court should follow suit. However, in none of those cases did the court expressly determine, or even discuss, whether SLUSA preempts entire actions rather than claims. Accordingly, Plaintiffs' argument on this ground is not persuasive.
Moreover, Plaintiffs contend that applying SLUSA in this manner would encourage plaintiffs in other cases to file separate lawsuits on the same set of facts and circumstances if any state law claims were included to protect certain purely federal claims from the potential operation of SLUSA. Congress, though, apparently foresaw this problem and included certain protections against it. See, e.g., 15 U.S.C. § 78bb(f)(5)(B)(ii) (treating as a "covered class action ... any group of lawsuits filed in or pending in the same court and involving common questions of law or fact....") (emphasis added). Therefore, this concern is not well-founded.
Finally, Plaintiffs argue that the Court's interpretation of SLUSA would prevent them from seeking damages for the time frame covered by the existing litigation (i.e., February 1999 to December 2003) because Plaintiffs cannot recover damages under § 36(b) for any period prior to one year before the commencement of the action. See 15 U.S.C. § 80a-35(b)(3). According to Plaintiffs, dismissal of the entire action would require them to re-file their case, which would begin a new one year period, thereby precluding Plaintiffs from recovering damages under the February 1999 to December 2003 time frame. Plaintiffs call this result "draconian."
The Court disagrees. The Supreme Court previously instructed that "[p]olicy considerations cannot override [a court's] interpretation of the text and structure of [an act], except to the extent that they may help to show that adherence to the text and structure would lead to a result 'so bizarre' that Congress could not have intended it." Central Bank of Denver v. First Interstate Bank of Denver, 511 U.S. 164, 188 (1994) (citations omitted). This is not the case here. As noted earlier, the Third Circuit recognized in Rowinski that Congress intended SLUSA to have a broad preemptive sweep, see Rowinski, 398 F.3d at 299 ("Congress envisioned a broad interpretation of SLUSA...."), and the Supreme Court recently affirmed that view, see Dabit II, 126 S.Ct. at 1513 ("A narrow reading of [SLUSA] would undercut the effectiveness of the [PSLRA's] stated purposes, viz., to prevent certain State private securities class action lawsuits alleging fraud from being used to frustrate the objectives of the 1995 Act.") (internal quotations omitted). Moreover, nothing prevented Plaintiffs from filing a derivative action under §§ 36(b) and 48(a) instead of improperly filing a class action based upon those sections. A derivative cause of action under those sections was already well-recognized at the time. See, e.g., Gartenberg v. Merril Lynch Asset Mgmt., Inc., 694 F.2d 923 (2d Cir. 1982). Therefore, this Court will not now sit as a "super-Congress" and re-write clearly drafted legislation to comport with Plaintiffs' views on public policy. That result would truly be "bizarre."
The Court is mindful that it previously dismissed Plaintiffs' class action claims under §§ 36(b) and 48(a) without prejudice, allowing Plaintiffs to replead those claims derivatively. However, after carefully considering Defendants' arguments, the Court believes that its prior Opinion and Order dismissing Plaintiffs' §§ 36(b) and 48(a) claims without prejudice violated the plain language of SLUSA. Accordingly, the Court hereby vacates the portion of its prior Opinion and Order allowing Plaintiffs to replead Counts Three and Four derivatively. Instead, this action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. An appropriate Order accompanies this Opinion.

READY FOR ADOPTION - Ruby-Tuesday aka RubyTue (formerly known as Daisy) is a playful 3 yr old female Treeing Walker Coonhound. She is a stunning tri-colored beauty with soft, soulful eyes and intelligence to match! She's had a bit of a rough start being shuffled from shelter to shelter and a failed adoption behind her (through no fault of her own). Who could abandon this little sweetheart who ju st wants to give love & tail wags & kisses! RubyTue was pretty thin when she came to foster home with gastro-intestinal issues and required special food. But that turned out to be just stress and fear of being all alone in the world! She gained her body weight back quickly in a safe foster home with other canine siblings. She can be a little dominant with other dogs her own size, until she gets to know them and establishes her place in the hierarchy. She is very food motivated and will do anything you ask, just a simple treat and belly rub! She is learning her basic commands and knows "sit"; we are working on recall and crate training. RubyTue was not a fan of the crate initially but she now runs to it to get her meal and treats, she even recognizes it as her very own bedroom and safe place. RubyTue may have had a rough start in the world, but she is thankful that she landed with Gentle Jake's Coonhound Rescue!
From the opening lyrics of the Rolling Stones song, Ruby Tuesday, …
Please Note: We are all volunteers and busy taking care of our foster dogs so please take the time to fill out our on-line adoption application if you are interested in more information about any of the hounds that we have for adoption.

All of our dogs are fully vetted. They have been vaccinated, altered, microchipped and heartworm tested and on prevention. VISIT COONHOUND COMPANIONS WEBSITE TO SEE WHY ADOPTING A COONHOUND CAN BE A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!
LOCATION: Sault Ste Marie, ON - With the help of volunteers, transportation to her forever home can possibly be arranged. Don't let distance deter you!
If you would like to give this beautiful girl a forever home please fill out our on line adoption application at Adoption Application

Hasn't he taught her to press the little button and use the wrench to turn the crank on the bottom of the disposal.
I'm guessing this is how the husbands/fathers in "Adam@Home" and "Daddy's Home" feel.
Stop putting so much down it at once, then. Better still – try composting.
That ain't working at home, Thems is Taxes!
Moms already work from home.
Even if they also work a job outside the house.
I guess Debbie Jordan is not a Plugger.
No, she's a Dixie Chick.
Open a work ticket.
some plugger folks live in either a townhouse or apartment style home. and do NOT have the land to do a compost pile. and some cities and towns have laws against a person having a compost pile on their property as well.
Here in the UK, some local authorities collect food waste (not meat) for composting.
Never use the garbage disposal to get rid of your Christmas Tree.
I'd like to know what the benefits are in this case.
Besides grease/frying oil, potato peels clog my garbage disposal up, as well. My husband has had to fix the problem twice: once with the old disposal, then a second time with the new one (no relationship to each other). I only created the problem a second time because I figured the first clog with the old disposal was exactly because of that — it was old, worn out and it just couldn't handle the job (by the way, this was after we first moved into our house 23 years ago) . So when we had to get a new one after the first one finally died, I tried it again, thinking there now shouldn't be a problem chopping up all the potato peels up and getting rid of them (after all, isn't that what a garbage disposal is supposed to do?). When it clogged up a second time, I never did it again after that. We don't compost so they have to be thrown away in the garbage every time instead. Stupid disposal. Well, at least it works on pretty much everything else food-related anyhow.
From yesterday: The both of you talking about the old Johnny Carson/Jack Webb bit from Johnny's late-night talk show regarding the "Copper Clapper Caper" reminded me how much I really enjoyed that one and how long it's been since I've last seen it so I just had to know if it was available on YouTube and sure enough, it is! For anyone who's never seen or heard this before, I think you'll really enjoy it!

An iFile link is ifile://(directory on your device) that tapping it will take you there in iFile, if you have iFile, and if you're on your device. Ex. ifile:///var/mobile is /var/mobile I was helping this dude try to find the Saved Photos/Camera Roll directory, and it denied the iFile link. If you're confused to what it does, it opens iFile and takes you to the directory after iFile:// so it isn't an actual website.

"Words on the Street" is an experienced insider's analysis of Wall Street language. This informative and entertaining exploration of marketplace rhetoric focuses on metaphors derived from the fascinating arenas of games, love, war, politics, religion, the fine arts, and natural physical science. This expose reviews that wordplay in the context of the American Dream. Armies of books describe marketplace structure and instruments, recount economic history, or unveil personalities and strategies of heroic (or scandalous) individuals and institutions. "Words on the Street" is different. It enlightens Wall Street professionals, Main Street audiences, policy makers, and academics regarding Wall Street talk and its implications. Wall Street and American Dream rhetoric reflect and shape marketplace perspectives and thereby influence quests to make, keep, and manage money. Therefore Wall Street propaganda has major financial consequences for both Wall Street insiders and Main Street. "Words" may change marketplace viewpoints, including dogmas related to investment. This cultural investigation shows how investors and other players are persuaded to venture into and stay within stock, interest rate, currency, and commodity arenas. The opportunity to make money is a very incomplete explanation. The book is extensively documented from financial sources and via references to literature, film, and music. This study of Wall Street's language and rhetorical methods benefits Wall Street professionals, Main Street residents, businesses, politicians, and regulators seeking insight on how and why Wall Street sermons attract and convince them. Enticed by the oratory of Wall Street and its allies, many millions of Main Street dwellers around the globe have marched into and remained within Wall Street, often to "invest." The recent worldwide economic crisis underlines the importance of Wall Street marketplaces, even for those who have not carried their own money directly to Wall Street tables. "Words on the Street" demolishes the scientific ambitions and claims, not only of Wall Street, but also of economics and other social "sciences." "Words" investigates and discredits the counterfeit science (alleged objectivity) of the influential armies of would-be Newtons, Einsteins, Darwins, and Fords roaming throughout Wall Street and economics. Its analysis of Wall Street language in the context of the American Dream will fascinate American history scholars and students. Finally, "Words" provides an innovative yet persuasive explanation of cultural reasoning and how it differs from scientific rationality. Leo Haviland has three decades of experience in the Wall Street trading environment. Leo has worked for Goldman Sachs, Sempra Energy Trading, and other institutions. In his research and sales career in stock, interest rate, foreign exchange, and commodity battlefields, he has dealt with numerous and diverse financial institutions and individuals. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago (Phi Beta Kappa) and the Cornell Law School.

Backgrounder--The Manchurian Tiger
The Manchurian Tiger, also named Siberian Tiger, or Panthera Tigris Altaica in Latin, is mainly found in northeast China and Russia's Siberia.
It looks slightly different from the other tiger sub-species. It has a coat that lightens during the winter to help blend in with the snow. Its stripes are dark brown instead of black.
The Manchurian Tiger is the largest cat in the world. The biggest one ever recorded was 1,025 pounds, while the average weight for a male is 900 pounds. Male Manchurian Tigers are usually about 3.5 feet tall at the shoulder and about 13 feet long from nose to tail. The tail is usually about 3 feet long.
Its population living in the wild is now only 400 worldwide, with just 13 in China. The number has decreased sharply in the past decades because of man's destruction of the species' natural habitat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 16.5 in width dimension include the laser sitcking out of the side? If not, what is the actual width of just the circular station itself?
It is about 22" from end of laser to the other side of the Death Star if the laser is moved as far out as possible. The 16.5" measurement would be without the superlaser firing.
