Lawyer to Admit Hiding Knowledge of Stock Scam
New York Law Journal
by Jordan Weissman
Federal prosecutors filed a plea agreement Wednesday with a New York-based businessman and lawyer charged with lying to federal investigators about his knowledge of a fraudulent stock sale.
Robert S. Brown agreed to plead guilty to obstruction of justice for hiding what he knew about a "pump and dump" scheme involving an unnamed investment firm in Newport Beach, Calif. According to documents filed at the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in United States v. Brown, 09-cr-00267, Mr. Brown also helped an executive from the firm, as well as the chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors of a Chinese company, fraudulently transfer more than $25 million through a series of shell companies into accounts they controlled.
According to a criminal information filed last month in the case, Mr. Brown's activities took place roughly between January 2004 and January 2008, while he was a name partner with New York's Reitler Brown & Rosenblatt, now Reitler Kalias & Rosenblatt.....

I've been a customer with this company for 7 years. I've always paid my balances on time and currently have no outstanding balance. Heck, they even just increased my credit line only a couple of months ago. Today, I get this letter in mail telling me that they are cancelling my card because of delinquent account on my credit report.
I called them up to get the details and they claimed that they could not see anything specific on the report itself. I then checked my report at Equifax (the agency they claimed to have gotten the report from) and there is NOTHING delinquent on there at all. So, let me get this straight. They just decide to cut off a PAYING customer for no apparent reason? Despite the fact that my credit report is clean, they still say there is nothing they can do now that the process of cancellation has started. They even had the nerve to tell me I could re-apply. HA! I'll re-apply alright... but with a different company. Not to mention I will be telling EVERYONE about this.

You should read the FCRA-you can download it from the FTC at www.ftc.gov
Closing the account against your will is considered ADVERSE ACTION by the FCRA and by law they are required to give you the specific reason for the account being closed when you request the reason in WRITING.
You should send them a certified, return receipt requested letter demanding the specific reason for your credit line being closed.
If they do not comply with the FCRA, the FCRA enables you to sue them for the violation.
Good luck.

Banks to Get $30 Billion for Small Business Loansby
(Updates the number of banks in the fourth paragraph.)
During his last State of the Union, President Barack Obama trumpeted a new $30 billion fund designed to boost small business lending. At the time outstanding loans to small businesses had declined 5 percent, or nearly $36 billion, since 2008, according to data from bank regulatory filings known as call reports. They continued to drop through the first three quarters of 2010 by another 4 percent, some $30 billion.
Now the money from the Small Business Lending Fund is about to start flowing, with investments expected to be made in the first quarter, according to Jason Tepperman, the Treasury program's director. The fund offers community banks capital that becomes cheaper as they increase their lending to small businesses. Tepperman won't say how many applications Treasury has received since it started accepting them in December 2010, although he said he was "pleasantly surprised" by how strong the response was. Banks have through the end of March to apply, and the Treasury will award funds on a rolling basis.
Although Congressional summaries suggested banks would lend out $10 for every dollar in new capital they received—meaning the $30 billion in the fund would result in $300 billion in new loans—Treasury officials declined to estimate how much the program would actually increase small business lending. Such observers as attorney Chris Jones, a partner who advises banks at Stinson Morrison Hecker in Kansas City, Mo., doubts the result will be that much. "The loan demand [from small businesses] has to be there for it to work," he says. Jones also suggests the program could encourage banks to make bad loans. "What got us into this mess to begin with was creating demand where it didn't exist." Still, Jones says the fund may be a good idea for banks that need more capital to make loans to healthy borrowers.
Refinancing TARP Capital
Banks with assets of less than $10 billion are eligible to apply for the Small Business Lending Fund. (Such institutions number about 7,000, although those that regulators consider "troubled" are disqualified.) Among banks eligible to apply are 473 that currently hold government money from the Troubled Asset Relief Program, according to the Treasury. "For institutions that have an interest in increasing their small business lending, they're likely to find this an attractive opportunity to refinance" TARP capital, says Tepperman. Banks generally pay Treasury an annual dividend of 5 percent for TARP investments (which take the form of preferred shares in the banks). Increasing small business lending even 2.5 percent would lower that cost under the new program.
Paul Merski, chief economist with the Independent Community Bankers of America trade group, expects banks will want to replace their TARP funds with lower-cost capital that they can hold on to longer—up to 4.5 years from the date of investment—without penalties. "It actually extends out your terms," Merski says. He estimates that about 100 banks, not all TARP recipients, have applied for the Small Business Lending Fund.
Rusty Cloutier, chief executive of MidSouth Bank (MSL) in Lafayette, La., is seeking $20 million from the fund to replace earlier government capital his bank took through TARP in 2009. He estimates MidSouth, which has 35 branches in southern Louisiana and Texas, would need to make $32 million in new small business loans to lower the dividend he must pay the government to 1 percent, from 5 percent now.
Knocking Capital Costs Down
"If we make these loans, we're talking $800,000 on the bottom line" that the bank would save by lowering the dividend from $1 million annually to $200,000, Cloutier says. Although publicly traded MidSouth could raise capital by issuing more common stock, Cloutier says, the 1 percent interest rate on government funds, which would take the form of preferred stock, is more attractive.
Banks that increase their small business lending will have their interest reduced from 5 percent to as low as 1 percent. Banks that don't boost lending at all will see their interest rates on SBLF capital rise to 7 percent after 2.5 years. After 4.5 years, the cost will jump to 9 percent for all SBLF recipients, an incentive for banks to exit the program before then. Business loans that qualify include loans up to $10 million to companies with $50 million or less in annual revenue. Loans that are guaranteed by the Small Business Administration do not count.
Ronald D. Paul, CEO of Eagle Bank (EGBN) in Bethesda, Md., says his bank is considering replacing the $23 million in TARP funds it holds with capital from the new program. "We've chosen not to pay off TARP, not because we couldn't, but because we thought that it's a cheap source of capital," he says. Based on the amount Eagle has already increased small business lending, he says, "we would qualify for a very, very low interest rate."

Excellent tool, provides near hassle-free migration
ShareGate allows us to provide a simple means of moving documents, list items, content types, sites, all the way up to whole site collections, from one SharePoint version and location to another. Think of it as an FTP client that speaks all dialects of SharePoint.
It let's one map properties and other elements that may not be exactly matching up in the old farm vs the new farm. For example, if users have left the organization and won't be in the destination SharePoint site, you can create rules as to who will become the owner of their documents.
All in all, I've had a good experience in my first few migrations with the tool. The alternative (manually accomplishing the same migration) would be an enormous chore. While I did have to "bang it with a wrench" a few times to get situations with inconsistent source data resolved, the tool is definitely a huge time saver and ensures a high level of fidelity in SharePoint migrations.
Product Reviews
- Works seamlessly between on-premise and Office 365
- It is for the most part, as their marketing indicates, "Damn simple migration software"
- does not import/export from other platforms such as WordPress like it's competitor Metalogix can
- No ability to estimate time it will take for a migration, was stuck on a Saturday wrapping up a migration because I had no heads up. It would be great if it could run a sample set just to get an estimate of network/SharePoint latency, and then deliver a ballpark of the overall migration based on content selected
ShareGate Migration Tools
Excellent tool. Very easy to use and does exactly what it says it will do. Mainly needed a tool that I can move groups of documents and folders from SharePoint 2003 to SharePoint 2007 and then to SharePoint 2010 and retains all user information. This tool has become invaluable to me as a SharePoint admin.

Two Firefighters Dead, More Than A Dozen Injured In Boston Fire
Flags are at half staff to honor two Boston firefighters who died battling a nine-alarm blaze, and the family of firefighters throughout the nation want you to know who these two men were.
They have a desire to put faces on the people who give their lives to protect their community,
"The two firefighters who lost their lives today were Lt. Ed Walsh with engine 33 and firefighter Michael Kennedy," said Boston Deputy Fire Chief Joseph Finn.
Thursday morning on the KFBK Morning News, they called KFBK counterpart in Worcester, Massachusetts, Paul Westcott of WTAG who told us about them.
"Lt. Edward Walsh, 43 years old, nine and a half year veteran of the force, 3 young children. I mean just a heartbreaking story," he said.
"The other was a former US Marine-Corps veteran. 6 and a half years on the force and you just look at this and say, 'how could they have possibly prevented this?' These men went in where none of us would go," Westcott continued.
The cause of yesterday's nine alarm fire in Boston's Back Bay remains under investigation.

I still have to pick up a vanilty, mirror and light fixture. Oh and a door lock set.
Nice tile work---real nice---Have you set tile before?
Looking good---thanks for the update.--Mike---
Thanks for the kudos. It's satisfying to look at something you did and think 'Not bad, not bad at all'.
You did well--I learn a lot here ,too.
Good bunch of folks-----You should be pleased with the outcome----quality work.
Couple more pic's
Is that a Bootz steel tub? How do you like it so far? I'm still considering my options for my 2nd floor bathroom.
Jim, it is indeed. But the jury is still out. I haven't used it yet. But so far it has been fine as far as shape and from what I can tell strength. I took great pains to make sure the opening was square and plumb. When I set it in place, everything was square to the framing and level.

First: their web directions are wrong; if you follow those you may end up, as I did, in a very bad part of town with few opportunities to turn around. Call for accurate directions. They put me in a part of the campground that is basically a grassy parking lot with hookups. I could see into, and hear phone conversations and television from, the neighboring RV. There were no trees and no landscaping whatsoever near my site, though there were trees near other sites. There were many vacant RVs parked throughout the park, as well as utility trailers. There was a very foul odor at my site. I suspected a septic tank problem, but it may have been a nearby paper mill. It was here when I arrived and here the next day when I left. There were no picnic tables on the property. I was close to the office but WiFi signal was never better than "fair." Verizon had 3 bars. On the plus side: they had a fenced dog run area. It is somewhat scenic. While there was only one Ladies' shower and one Men's shower, it was a roomy area and extremely clean. If not for the odor, this would suffice for a one-night stay. Passport America rate was only $17.
Date of Stay: October, 2010
Nice campground, lots of trees. It was completely full on the Monday night I stayed here. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. School bus pulled in and dropped children off; woman in the RV next to me went out mid-afternoon and returned with a child with a school-type backpack. (So, perms?) There is a beautiful pond with a large dock extending over it with chairs for reading or fishing. However, they charge you by the pound for any fish you catch. Nice big dog walking area. I would camp here again.
Date of Stay: March, 2010
The term "resort" seems to be an overstatement. There is rarely anyone at the office (though a phone number is posted). I wasn't the only one puzzled upon arrival. I finally found a maintenance man on a golf cart to help me. While he was driving me back to my car after finding a site, we encountered four large RVs that had evidently just arrived. The driver of the front one asked him, "Where am I going?" and the maintenance man said, "Well, where are you headed?" and the RV driver, clearly put out, said "I don't know! There's nobody at the office!" No way to know what sites are available. The maintenance man took me to my car, parked outside the empty office, went in and got campground maps for everyone, and went back to help the RVers. FYI, just pick a spot: if it's empty, it's yours. There is a pool, but the door is locked (at least in March, though it was 75 degrees out), with a sign on it saying that if you want to swim, find an employee to unlock the door and uncover the pool. Many of the sites were visibly unlevel. Campground residents were oddly unfriendly (with the exception of the maintenance man and a volunteer employee). There is no check-out time on their rule sheet. I asked the volunteer about that and he asked me when I wanted to leave? He indicated that as long as it was before dark, it was fine. The dirt section of road that you must traverse is hard packed sand: after 12 hours of rain, it stayed firm and flat. The problem is the short distance of pavement between the dirt road and the "resort." The best way to avoid potholes so deep you could fish in them is to drive with one side's tires on the grass next to the road: you'll have to switch sides halfway there, but it will be mostly smooth for you. The spring was flooded so I can't rate this place for scenery. I imagine it is very nice. I was in site 101, which was level and would have had a nice view of the spring, being on the outside loop. Given all the great campgrounds in the vicinity (Manatee Springs SP, for example), I will not return to this one again.
Date of Stay: December, 2009
Pretty well off the beaten track so not ideal for stopover camping en route to somewhere else, but perfect if this is your destination. Sites are large and far apart. You cannot reserve specific sites, they are first come, first served (except ADA sites). Great views of the water and you can launch a canoe or kayak from most of the lakefront sites. Bath house is clean, but only two showers and two stalls. Lots of osprey and Canada geese in the campground area.
Date of Stay: December, 2009
The road into the campground is very rough with potholes, only some of which have been patched (budget restrictions for Florida state parks). The sites are smallish, with only one pull-through (#9), which has almost no shade, but the best view of the lake. This is an older park and the campground may be more appropriate for smaller RVs. Since I have a small RV, I am judging the campground on that basis. Many of the sites have a lake view; however, the interior ones have more privacy. I have camped in most of the sites with a lake view and have found them to be level, with the possible exception of #9, which was recently converted to a pull-through. There is a fishing pier that extends over the lake from site #10. This is not an ideal campground for kids, since the playground area is limited to one swing. The restrooms are not fancy but they are clean. There is a very large picnic area next to the lake. While you could walk to the picnic area, it's quite a distance from the campground and so driving is a better option. There are a few hiking trails; this part of Florida is peculiarly hilly and so the trails are moderately strenuous. Your site will likely be visited by possums, raccoons, and armadillos after dark, and you may hear an alligator growl from the lake if you are there in warmer weather. If you have your windows open at night, you will hear the moorhens calling from the lake and an occasional squawk from a great blue heron. I give this campground a high rating because while it has no frills, it is one of the best campgrounds in the area if you want to be on water. You could literally toss a pebble from site #9 and hit the lake.
Date of Stay: December, 2009
I have been watching the reviews of this campground carefully and decided to spend a couple of days here. First, I can describe the results of rain on the roads and sites, since it had rained for over 7 straight hours before I left. The road leading into the campground and through the campground gets shallow puddles but does not become slippery or muddy at all. The grassy part of my site (#13) had standing water but was not boggy. The road into the campground is very well graded, and while it does become narrow at one point, that is only for a very short distance. I saw but did not meet the owners. I was greeted in the office by an extremely friendly woman, who checked me in quickly and was helpful answering a few questions. I had chosen one of the more expensive sites since I wanted to be on the river. The website photos are a tad misleading, since only sites #1 and #2 have an unobstructed view of the water, the other sites are all set back with palmetto bushes blocking much of the view. I was the only camper next to the water, all the others were at interior sites. I later discovered that they were staying long term, which would be costly at the premium sites. The campground was about half filled. The Wi-Fi was out when I got here but returned the next morning and stayed on for the remainder of the time. This is a huge property that extends far beyond the campsite area and includes 3 small ponds, two with a resident alligator each (don't walk your dog back there). I found it to be extremely well-maintained. The sites were very clearly marked and easy to distinguish. I will definitely be returning and will reserve site #1 for a better view of the river.

Wearing sexy short shorts on a canoe trip leads to gay sex.
It was the middle of a hot summer. I was off on a Tuesday. I was looking forward to paddling down a quiet river near my home. I like having a day off in the week as the parks, local rivers and lakes are usually quiet from the weekend crowds. I was looking forward to getting some sun on my legs so I picked out my favorite white short shorts. They are about two sizes too small with only about...Read On

Once, a few years ago, I went to an adult theater near Tampa. It had several things going for it. It was an adult bookstore, it had a movie theater and it had individual viewing booths with no doors but with a turn inside the booth so no one walking by could see without actually coming into the booth. I used the booths a little, even watched a blowjob with two guys, but soon I decided to go...Read On

Delightful deliveries...
A few months after starting my business, I had a good idea of the traffic flow in the shop. I arrived in the store at eight a.m. in the mornings, allowing me time to tidy, dust and catch-up on all my paper work. The tranquillity that this hour gave me, till nine o'clock, was a highlight in my daily routine. Thereafter, from nine till twelve, I would conduct normal business. At twelve, there...Read On

A vulnerable husband is no match for a savvy 16 year old dude.
I drove to the garden center one Saturday morning to pick up an order for my wife. When I arrived I was directed to the rear of the building to be assisted by someone named Daniel.

He did stay that night, and the three nights after that. He left the house only to work, I left it only to get more groceries and lay in supplies of beer and wine.

In truth, I sucked him off multiple times and I was able to take him in my ass, but he didn't really fuck me,...Read On

The minutes passed. Steve and I lay there on our backs, our breathing slowly getting back to normal. I slowly stroked his thigh with the back of my hand, just trying to keep contact with his warm skin. "It's been a long time since I had sex that intense," I said. "In fact I can't remember EVER having sex that intense." "Me either," he said. "I thought I would never stop coming." ...Read On

Rheumatology is the specialty of medicine that includes arthritis and autoimmune diseases. The term arthritis refers to the inflammation of a joint in the body. An autoimmune disease is where an abnormality in the immune system leads to the body's defence harming its own cells by mistake.
Common Conditions
Paediatric Rheumatology encompasses a wide variety of inflammatory and non-inflammatory conditions of the musculoskeletal system (muscles and joints) as well as conditions of non-infectious multi-system inflammation.
The types of conditions cared for by the Rheumatology team include:
- Juvenile idiopathic arthirits (JIA)
- Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
- Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM)
- Vasculitis
- Connective tissue disease
- Scleroderma
- Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO)
- Dr Anthony Concannon, Paediatric Rheumatologist
- Dr Genevieve Ostring, Paediatric Rheumatologist
- Dr Jacqueline Yan, Paediatric Rheumatologist
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday between 7.30am and 4.00pm
Referral Expectations
At the clinic appointment a history of your child's symptoms will be taken as well as a review of any medications they are on. Your child will then be examined, and may be referred for further testing. They may also be reviewed by other members of the multi-disciplinary team.
Common Conditions / Procedures / Treatments
Blood tests
Blood tests can be used to look for how much inflammation there is in the body, monitor certain side effects of the medicines the patient is taking and/or help classify the patient's rheumatological condition.
X-rays are used to give a picture of the bones and joints. An x-ray can help to check the position and condition of the bones near a joint.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) gives even more detailed pictures of joints and organs and may be helpful to check if the joint is damaged. Occasionally, if more detailed information about the joints is required, a dye is injected into the vein to show more detail in the picture.
Joint injections
A joint injection is most often done to deliver medicine directly into the joint. This may be done when the other medication the patient is taking is not controlling the arthritis well enough or if the patient has just one swollen joint. In older children the joint injections are done with the child inhaling laughing gas (nitrous oxide) which helps relieve the discomfort of the procedure.
Drug infusions
Some medications used in rheumatology are given as an infusion. These can be steroids and some of the biologic agents.

True to size!!!

These pants are true to size. I purchased them in medium black and just love them. So comfortable... wish they sold more... I would have loved a denim pair. Great buy!!!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Shop Girl
from New Westminster, BC
I bought both colours in blue and black and they both look beautiful with the Adessa Ruffle tops I had purchased. I did size up (since it was a fitted look) and I still have the fitted look with no lumps or bumps at all. I couldn't believe how good I looked in these jeans. This is a complete look that this streamlined that I will have for many years.

Slim and Sleek
By BC
from HALIFAX
These feel so sleek on.....fabric is light weight with great stretch and a bit of compression. They're basically like a "jegging" and I could feel the fabric really softening up like a second skin after having them on for only a few minutes, hence the "techno" fabric. Love it.My usual size small (in BB) in both colors fit perfectly for my 36" (low hip)and the rise is high enough (@waist) to allow bending over without any TMI.Love the "front" and "back" working pockets along w/small rhinstone accents.On the fence with the waistband. It's a 1.5" flat elasticized encased band, but would like to have seen a sleeker looking application.Overall another great quality BB design I so appreciate from Brian and his team. The great pride Brian takes in his work is obvious, and I believe he does his best to bring us the top fabrics, designs and prices within the parameters he has to work with in this type of venue.How lucky are we to have an iconic Canadian designer's clothing available at TSC to those of us that may not otherwise likely have the opportunity/means to shop at Brian's boutique?Hope TSC continues to support our Canadian fashion designers.

By Shopping Chanelle
from UXBRIDGE
I'm 5' 9 1/2" and a size 8-10. I bought the Medium and found them too short and not very forgiving, ie. not much stretch in the fabric and not very flattering. I think you would need a "model's" figure to look good in these jeans. Overpriced for what they are. I find Brian's things very hit and miss, inconsistent. I am learning to watch the fabric and to stay away from anything very tailored. Love his capris sooo much.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Cheap fabric
By Choco
from Toronto
I returned both blue and black that I had ordered. The fabric was slippery, plasticky and unbreathable. They made weird wrinkles around the thighs and knees where you bend. Just very uncomfortable all around.

|We have a Jenn-Air range, model # SVE47600W with a similar problem--clock display very dim, even went completely dark today then made a comeback to dim. Timer and clock still work.
Are we looking at replacing the clock also? If so, would it be a different part number since we have a different Jenn-Air model from Len's?
Last question: is the clock easy to install? I am not the DIY type (more a night crawler than a grasshopper), but I am looking to save money these days.
Many thanks in advance to Samurai-san and other grandmasters for their wisdom,

Shown above is a further look into the Marc Jacobs for Native Jimmy Boots that was presented last month. With that idea in mind, the Jimmy was developed as a more fashion-driven approach to the traditional duck boot with design courtesy of Marc Jacobs. The all-black boot comes with an anti-microbial liner and micro fleece design. Aside from that, it is also washable and completely waterproof. Outdoor enthusiasts and Marc Jacobs fans alike can purchase these boots at Marc Jacobs stores worldwide.

When the caregiver found a jokey old photo of me showering with team buddies after a tennis tournament, she smirked in a knowing manner. "Mm ..." she said, "you were well-endowed back then."
"What do you mean, were well-endowed?" I spluttered defensively.
"Well ..." she continued diplomatically, "time does play havoc with our bodies and a little shrinkage is, I suppose, ... perfectly normal." With another birthday looming, I don't need reminding about anything shrinking. I immediately went into damage control by changing the subject.
"Would you like a hot chocolate, dear?" I suggested in my gruffest, most manly voice.
The next day I met an old newspaper mate and we reminisced over industry events.
At one stage we were scratching our heads trying to remember names but - after the usual umming and ahhing - we gave up.
My mate gloomily concluded, "trouble is, our brain cells are shrinking, probably from drinking too much alcohol".
There it was again, that chilling term: "Shrinkage."
Arriving back in my office in a fit of melancholia, I decided it was time to make a solemn, statement to the world via Facebook.
I wrote cryptically: "Everything shrinks before it dies."
Unfortunately, my maudlin cry into the electronic wilderness followed hard on the heels of other observations about newspapers contemplating changing from broadsheet to tabloid format.
I immediately started receiving messages from fellow hacks, congratulating me on my acute observation on the industry.
This is slightly embarrassing. I'm unsure whether I should correct my Facebook statement and respond to the swags of emails I received, by lamely admitting that I was really concerned with the size of my diminishing anatomical appendages, rather than the problems of broadsheets becoming smaller, or should I just continue to bask in the glory of appearing to be a wise old media guru?
It's logical for newspapers to go tabloid, providing content doesn't suffer. The problem with the term "tabloid" is the idea that it represents all that is puerile in reportage, and many readers and journalists will be apprehensive that such a format is the trap-door leading to a trough where a newspaper's most prized possession, credibility, ends up covered in cheesecake.
We'll revisit this interesting subject some time, when newspapers inevitably slip from tabloid to tablet - if I'm still around and haven't shrunk too much.

(CNSNews.com) - The Anti-Defamation League said the maker of a much-criticized video game is "showing sensitivity" by removing offensive references to Haitians and Cubans from future versions of the game.
ADL on Tuesday thanked Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., the maker of "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City," for responding so quickly to concerns about the game's use of inflammatory language and stereotypes of minorities.
"Take-Two Interactive Software has done the responsible thing by showing sensitivity and by removing all of the offensive language from future versions of the game," said Abraham Foxman, ADL national director.
"We welcome their decision to take corrective action in this case, and are pleased with their immediate response to our concerns."
In a statement issued Tuesday, Rockstar Games, a wholly owned subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive, offered its "sincerest apologies" to the Haitian people and the Haitian government for any offense that the video game may have caused them.
At one point in the game, players are encouraged to "Kill all the Haitians."
But in its statement, Rockstar Games also said some of the criticism may have been blown out of proportion.
"As its name implies, 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City' is a virtual crime world, in which characters are involved in criminal activities, including fictional gang warfare between rival groups," Rockstar said.
"In creating the game, it was not our intention to target or offend any group or persons or to incite hatred or violence against such groups persons."
ADL said it contacted Take-Two Interactive Software after fielding complaints that the language used in the game was "dehumanizing to real people and could have a profound impact on its players."
The ADL, which bills itself as the world's leading organization dedicated to fighting anti-Semitism, hatred, prejudice and bigotry, wasn't the only group to complain about Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
The New York Human Rights Commission also demanded that Rockstar removed the phrase "Kill Haitians" from the game, and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive would be investigated for alleged human rights violations.
Although the videogame maker agreed to make changes in future copies of the game, it also noted that Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is rated "M" - not intended for sale to people under age 17.
"Contrary to what some may believe, it must be recognized that video games have evolved as an adult medium, not unlike literature, movies and music," Rockstar Games said in its statement.
"The fact that the game is popular does not mean that it will encourage players to act out hatred or violence against any group or persons in the 'real world.' Certainly, this is not our intent, nor is it the effect of the game."
"Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" was released in October 2002, and at the time, critics complained about the game's violence, sexuality, and language.
The game's players perform different missions for a mob boss in the fictional Vice City, including murdering the pizza delivery boy, picking up and murdering prostitutes, and killing a businessman with a golf club at a driving range, according to one review.
Rockstar Games has defended the game by comparing it to literature, movies, music and other forms of entertainment. "We have strived to create a video game experience with a certain degree of realism, which we believe is our right," the company said in its Tuesday press release.

I guess you don't have much chance of a detailed reply here, for
various reasons.
This is a repeated question. See comments made very recently about
such repeated questions at
1. -movestay- is a user-written command (SJ), as you are asked to
explain. Perhaps not many know about it.
2. The authors of -movestay- don't appear to be members of Statalist.
3. Most importantly, -movestay- is the subject of an article and
-heckman- the subject of a lengthy entry in the manual. I don't think
anyone would be tempted to write you a long tutorial explaining what
the difference is. Why should they? They can have no idea of what you
seek precisely.
So, you really need to ask specific questions to have a chance of
specific answers. There might be people on the list who have used
-movestay- and can answer questions about it, but if so they kept
quiet first time round.

Prequel/spin-off for my character out of "There's No 'I' In Super".
There's No 'I' In Super is like The Avengers. It's a team of remarkable people who have come together to fight the battles that we never could.
But those people had stories before they teamed up. Those people went places and became who they were. They had their own movies and comics.
Our characters haven't had that.
But Skitter will.
She's small. She's young. She's not what you'd expect from a superhero because she doesn't believe she is one. But she had a story - she existed - before anyone else knew about her. Even if it was only in my head.
And here is her story.

If you go: Please tell them you saw this event on
Venue Description: In 1986, a coalition of artists and community members led by Mark di Suvero decided to retake an abandoned riverside landfill that was being used as an illegal dumpsite and make it into an open space for art and artists. Since then, Socrates Sculpture Park has become an internationally renowned outdoor museum. It is today the only spot in the New York metropolitan area specifically designed to allow artists the opportunity create and showcase large-scale work in an environment that encourages interaction between artists, artworks, and the public.
Since 2006, the park has been expanding its Community Works Initiative program, which offers employment and job training to area residents, including those of the nearby Astoria projects. Participants learn landscaping and basic horticulture skills as they tend the park gardens. At the end of the program, all participants have new marketable skills and knowledge of the resources and cultural events that the park has available for the community and visitors. Among the events and activities that the park offers are kite flights, fitness programs, workshops, the LIC Bike Parade, Summer Solstice, Makers Market, outdoor cinema, an annual Earth Day event, and the Halloween Harvest Festival. In July and August, there are free summer outdoor art-making workshops with a variety of topics.

I-5, s. 88 -- Regulation respecting the Parc de la Jacques-Cartier, (1981) 113 O.G. II 3518, ss. 9, 37.The respondents are members of the Huron band on the Lorette Indian reserve. They were convicted by the Court of Sessions of the Peace of cutting down trees, camping and making fires in places not designated in Jacques-Cartier park contrary to ss. 9 and 37 of the Regulation respecting the Parc de la Jacques-Cartier, adopted pursuant to the Quebec Parks Act. The respondents appealed to the Superior Court against this judgment by way of trial de novo. They admitted committing the acts with which they were charged in the park, which is located outside the boundaries of the Lorette reserve. However, they alleged that they were practising certain ancestral customs and religious rites which are the subject of a treaty between the Hurons and the British, a treaty which brings s. 88 of the Indian Act into play and exempts them from compliance with the regulations. The treaty that the respondents rely on is a document of 1760 signed by General Murray. This document guaranteed the Hurons, in exchange for their surrender, British protection and the free exercise of their religion, customs and trade with the English. At that time the Hurons were settled at Lorette and made regular use of the territory of Jacques-Cartier park. The Superior Court held that the document was not a treaty and dismissed the appeal. A majority of the Court of Appeal reversed this judgment. The court found that the 1760 document was a treaty and that the customary activities or religious rites practised by the Hurons in Jacques-Cartier park were protected by the treaty. Section 88 of the Indian Act made the respondents immune from any prosecution. This appeal is to determine (1) whether the 1760 document is a treaty; (2) whether it is still in effect; and (3) whether it makes ss. 9 and 37 of the Regulation respecting the Parc de la Jacques-Cartier unenforceable in respect of the respondents.Held: The appeal should be dismissed.The 1760 document is a treaty within the meaning of s. 88 of the Indian Act. Though the wording of the document does not suffice to determine its legal nature, the historical context and evidence relating to facts which occurred shortly before or after the signing of the document indicate that General Murray and the Hurons entered into an agreement to make peace and guarantee it. They entered into this agreement with the intention to create mutually binding obligations that would be solemnly respected. All the parties involved were competent to enter into this treaty. Even if Great Britain was not sovereign in Canada in 1760, the Hurons could reasonably have believed that it had the power to enter into a treaty with them and that this treaty would be in effect as long as the British controlled Canada. The circumstances prevailing at the time indicate that Murray had the necessary capacity to enter into a treaty, or at least that the Hurons could reasonably have assumed he did in view of the importance of his position in Canada at the time. In the case of the Hurons, though they could not claim historical occupation or possession of the lands in question, this did not prevent them from concluding a treaty with the British Crown. A territorial claim is not essential to the existence of a treaty within the meaning of s. 88 of the Indian Act.The treaty was still in effect when the offences with which the respondents were charged were committed. The Act of Capitulation of Montreal in 1760 and the Treaty of Paris in 1763 did not have the effect of terminating rights resulting from the treaty. At the time, France could no longer claim to represent the Hurons. Since the Hurons had the capacity to enter into a treaty with the British Crown, they were the only ones who could give the necessary consent to its extinguishment. Similarly, the silence of the Royal Proclamation of 1763 regarding the treaty cannot be interpreted as extinguishing it. The change in use of the land by legislation in 1895 (creation of the Jacques-Cartier park) also did not terminate the right protected by the treaty. If the treaty gives the Hurons the right to carry on their customs and religion in the territory of the park, the existence of a provincial statute and subordinate legislation will not ordinarily affect that right. Finally, non-user of the treaty over a long period of time does not result in its extinguishment.Although the treaty gives the Hurons the freedom to carry on their customs and religion, it makes no mention of the territory over which these rights may be exercised. As there is no express indication of the territorial scope of the treaty, it must be interpreted by determining the intention of the parties at the time it was concluded. When the historical context is given its full meaning, the interpretation that is called for is that the parties contemplated that the rights guaranteed by the treaty could be exercised over the entire territory frequented by the Hurons in 1760, so long as the carrying on of the customs and rites was not incompatible with the particular use made by the Crown of this territory. This interpretation would reconcile the Hurons' need to protect the exercise of their customs and the desire of the British conquerors to expand. It gave the British the necessary flexibility to be able to respond in due course to the increasing need to use Canada's resources, in the event that Canada remained under British suzerainty, and it allowed the Hurons to continue carrying on their rites and customs on the lands frequented to the extent that those rites and customs did not interfere with enjoyment of the lands by their occupier. The Hurons could not reasonably expect that the use would remain forever what it was in 1760. Jacques-Cartier park is land occupied by the Crown, since the province has set it aside for a specific use. The park falls within the class of conservation parks and is intended to ensure the permanent protection of territory representative of the natural regions of Quebec or natural sites presenting exceptional features, while rendering them accessible to the public for the purposes of education and cross-country recreation. This type of occupancy is not incompatible with the exercise of Huron rites and customs. For such an exercise to be incompatible with occupancy of the park by the Crown, it must not only be contrary to the purpose underlying that occupancy but it must prevent the realization of that purpose. Crown lands are held for the benefit of the community (exclusive use is not an essential aspect of public ownership) and the activities with which the respondents are charged do not seriously compromise the Crown's objectives in occupying the park. Neither the representative nature of the natural region where the park is located nor the exceptional nature of this natural site are threatened. These activities also present no obstacle to cross-country recreation. Under s. 88 of the Indian Act, the respondents could therefore not be prosecuted since the activities in question were the subject of a treaty.Cases CitedApplied: Simon v.
