Lauryn Hill sentenced to prison for 3 months
Listen to Lauryn Hill on iHeartRadio
According to reports, Lauryn Hill has been sentenced to 3 months in prison for failing to pay taxes on about $1 million in earnings.
The Associated Press reports that in a statement to the judge, she expressed that she had the intention of paying the taxes, but due to a period of time where she wasn't involved with the music business, she was unable to. AP also reports that Hill had paid over $970,000 to satisfy state and federal tax liabilities, according to her attorney.
She has also been sentenced to 3 additional months of home confinement.

"I had him chart how much money he made each day to his sexual performance," Josephson says.
He was, says Josephson, "a handsome big guy, sleeping with hotties."
That very night father and son moved in to Mrs. Josephson's.
If Josephson means that Valle gives many unnecessary references, I should agree with him.
Josephson's study will be mentioned in its proper place at the end of this essay.
One evening, late, as Joseph entered his room at the Josephson's he found his father waiting for him.
Josephson chose to arrange the titles in chronological order without providing either an author or a subject index.
Mr. Josephson: I move that a vote on this question be postponed.
This is not only Josephson's judgment but also the judgment that bibliographers have generally passed on Valle.
Mr. Josephson has told us that probably the number of cards including contents would be less than three per cent.

Compare Triumph Garages and Specialists in Christchurch with Who Can Fix My Car.
The service was amazing. The car has been picked up and was ready the next day as agreed. Everything was explained as it's my first car. Will go back there again.
Called the garage in the afternoon and was able to get my car in the same day for my air con gassing. staff was helpful and informative and the price was fantastic if you are after a reliable local affordable garage i would suggest you start here
I lost time and money for transportation service ... if you have the latest technological cars please do not choose this service. Staff there is confused about the modern technology. Didn't took the money for checking the car but when I recived my car back all the component parts were on the floor . Honestly very unprofessional
Clutch and mass flywheel replaced together with a few other odds and ends. All good and happy. Nick please post paperwork as promised! I still don't know if your work carries a 12 or 24 month guarantee
Swift service, managed to book the time I wanted at short notice.
Extremely happy with the service offered. Will use again.
Fast and friendly service, highly recommend A+
Everything was fine, came to my house, no complaints
Excellent response time, excellent customer service, used original parts. Best experience I have had with automotive repairs in years. Price as quoted although I could specify exactly what was wrong, which I presume helped with providing an accurate quote.
Happy with the service received- my car passed MOT and service easily. Dropped off at 8am and collected again at around 4pm. No problems at all. Mike in the office was very friendly. Originally overpaid by £50 as I had not checked the original quote beforehand, but Mike refunded the payment happily.
Quick and easy, although they didn't know anything about my booking when I arrived also the website said it would be done at 8 but the garage didn't open till 8:30...
They were able to fit the job in at the last minute. The wrong item was ordered from WhoCanFixMyCar (my fault, and the garage sourced the current replacement, however at a much higher cost than market rates but this could be to do with Christmas availability). Overall happy with the job.
Absolutely brilliant, would use again.
Everything was Brilliant car is just fine
Very pleased,promt service&steve sorted all issues,will definitely use this garage again many thanks,phil
Very good customer service, prompt timekeeping and keeping me informed what is happening.
Great work. Speedy service
Great job and service by you guys getting cam belt renewed .You collected car and returned all done as planned ..best of all price ,having looked around ...brill deal.
Absolutely brilliant, best price around. Fantastic customer service, polite, friendly and informative. Will definitely use again and cant recommend them enough. 5+ stars and then some more.
Great job! Turned up on time, they came to me, their van was immaculate and the work done was excellent! Will definitely use again!

Motivation to overhaul
I wanted peace of mind.
After 94k miles I was feeling unsure of my E60's cooling system. After all, a coolant system blowout will leave you stranded and may possibly destroy your engine. I won't repeat what is often said about the BMW cooling system reliability. I think it's a pretty good system but needs attention at regular intervals. As I approach 100k miles, I feel like this cooling system was living on borrowed time. Therefore, I decided to shell out nearly $1,000 and my time to make the system reliable.
Electric water pump an innovation
The high-tech, aluminum-magnesium composite, VALVETRONIC N52 engine is 22 lbs less than its predecessor (Bentley E60, p. 010-11), the venerable and cost-effective M54 that I am used to working on. Also the N52 gains about 3 hp by using an electric water pump, a BMW innovation, as I understand. The water pump for the old M54 can be had for less than $100. If you shop around, you can get the N52 pump for just under $400. The N52 has 9 rubber hoses for just its cooling system, ignoring the heater hoses. The M54 has 3.
The good news is that the water pump is self-diagnosable (Bentley E60, p. 170-2) and can throw codes for:
Impeller speed deviationA Check Engine Light can prompt you read the codes for impending water pump failure, as I understand it. That sounds good and maybe it's really not necessary to replace the pump until then. From my perspective I like having the peace of mind of a factory-new component for such a critical function. I've gotten a good service life (94k miles) from the original unit, though.
Hose replacement is straightforward
The hoses are all generally well-accessible and were easy to replace. The expansion tank is a cinch. To prevent confusion, take photos. But if you don't it's really not a serious puzzle. Only 1 hose didn't get replaced--more on that, below. Plastic hose-routing clips will be brittle. Buy replacements. I don't have the part numbers. Look on realoem.com.
Pre-assembly of Pump-Thermostat-Assembly (PTA)
The pump and thermostat are physically connected in two ways:
1) A pair of bolts holds them fast to each other, andPTA PumpThermostatAssembly (reconstructed from removed parts) Viewed as if from the front, right of the engine block; the "radiator" is the white, cardboard box at left.
In order to avoid kinking or stressing the "U" hose that clamps onto the pump and thermostat, I felt it was necessary to orient the pump and thermostat in-place, loosely, in order to allow the "U" hose to be correctly oriented prior to clamping. This is how I did it.
The new pump and thermostat should be attached with the u-shaped hose (see photo) after bolting together the pump and thermostat. The 2 bolts holding them together should then be removed after the PTA has been correctly oriented and the hose clamps tightened. You will need the freedom of motion to get that assembly into the tight space. Once the PTA is put in place, prior to applying final torque to the mounting bolts, connect the pump outlet to the metal-rubber hybrid "INLET PIPE" that attaches to the engine block. Clamp the "INLET PIPE" to the pump outlet. Then the PTA can be bolted together with the two steel bolts.
Here's the step-by-step procedure (recalling from memory). I've ignored telling you to drain the coolant from the system and have left out other details.
1. Remove the old PTA (pump & thermostat) and discard or keep it for a reference as I did.Random thoughts
The Power Steering high-pressure line is in the way of pump installation. A single bolt holds a hanger for the right end of line. That bolt is attached to the chassis UNDER the PTA by a single bolt with a 10mm hex head. This provides an interesting dexterity challenge to re-mount the PS hanger. This is a key reason for not bolting together the PTA until the end.
The PTA installation will consume a large amount of time. I spent 9 hours with this project but this was my first time and I had only the Bentley manual to give lightweight and non-subjective directions.
The aluminum bolts require a 2-stage torque sequence. Good luck on getting a torque wrench in there-no way. I did it by feel, approximating the 10Nm and following with an "additional 90 degrees." The aluminum bolts are one-use only. Be sure to have 3 new replacements on-hand-I bought a "kit" on eBay that included the pump and the 3 aluminum mounting bolts.
In hindsight, the original hoses were all in fine condition, showing no signs of deterioration. I had gotten no codes from the water pump. Could the cooling system have been ignored until codes were thrown or leaks noticed? Maybe, but I'm glad to have a new cooling system.
The problem hose (called "INLET PIPE" on realoem.com)
This "hose" is really a hybrid pipe-hose, being made primarily of heavy gauge steel(aluminum??) and having a rubber hose fused to one end. It won't come off without removing the entire exhaust system. I chose to not replace it.
These photos tell the story better than words.
Location of pipe/hose attachment to block
Engine block with pipe in place, without the exhaust manifolds
The other eight replacement hoses went back together without issue. Only the metal-rubber hybrid "INLET PIPE" was not installed. It's metal for a reason. It is connected to the block on cylinder 2, under runners 1 and 2 of the exhaust manifold. Its composition changes from metal (iron/steel) to rubber when it is clear of the heat hazard and must be attached to the pump's output port. I did get a socket on one of the two bolts (the bolt at the 2 o'clock position) holding the unit to the block-I did *not* loosen the bolt. The socket connection was a confidence-inspiring near-straight-on fit. I did this using a mirror and flashlight. It was impossible to connect to the second bolt (at the 7 o'clock position). Even if both bolts could be extracted, I don't think the pipe could be removed from the block because the pipe extends several millimeters from the mounting flange into the engine block. The exhaust manifold for cylinders 1-3 almost contacts the pipe and would prevent the wiggle-room needed to remove the pipe.
Here's a view from the expansion tank (removed), looking downward toward the motor mount. It shows where the "INLET PIPE" would be mounted to the block.
The next photo is a mirror view into the "INLET PIPE" mounting area
You can forget about replacing this pipe unless you're willing to remove the exhaust system. I'm going to wait until when and if this pipe ever starts leaking. I'm betting it will be OK.
The pipe is plugged into the engine deeply. There is not enough room to back it out in these tight confines.
Alternate access
I turned to Bentley to find out how to remove the front manifold (cylinders 1-3) -- the exhaust manifold consists of 2 parts.
Step 1: "Remove rear manifold." In order to do that, perform step 2, next.Therefore, you have to remove the entire exhaust system from stem-to-stern. I've removed the "exhaust system" before. It consists of a 90-lb 8-foot-long section, connected at the front to the exhaust manifold outlet. Not too hard. But the removal of both exhaust manifolds was making this a very involved project.
I left the pipe in place.
I justified my decision since the coolant in this pipe is the coolest coolant in the entire system since it has already been passed through the radiator and is being sent back into the engine block. The rubber on this pipe has had less exposure to hot coolant than any other pipe in the system.
Expansion tank plug ("blind plug") PN: 11 53 1 436 850
The existing expansion tank has 4 connections, one of which is plugged. You must reuse that plug so pull it off carefully. It's held in-place with the normal clip-type wire bail that is common to the other hoses.
Hose PN 11537522999
The coolest coolant in the system comes from the water pump, goes into the INLET PIPE and into the engine block. There is a take-off pipe on the INLET PIPE that connects to the top connection of the hose shown.
This pipe connects to hose in the previous photo. There is a notch in the hose end that keys onto this tube. The pin on the tube orients the hose properly so you don't have to think about it.
Very nice.. Thank You.. I'm also in the process of Replacing the electric water pump, thermostat (Wahler Brand), Serpentine Belt and 2 Gal BMW Coolant.

Those hoses were all in good condition when I replaced them. Pretty tough material.
Amazing writeup. Does the cap on expansion tank need to be on or off when doing the bleeding?
2 Attachment(s)
Outstanding writeup.
A couple of comments, after doing this job yesterday (bad pump, PM the thermostat since I was in there) on my 07, 65K mi E60.
First, the pump control electronics are what fails. Other sites note that intermittent codes are sometimes thrown prior to failure, but realistically you'd need to regularly check the codes in memory every so often, since no one has seen the check engine light go on solid in advance of a "achtung! Stop zee effing car right now!" dash warning.
That said, you can confirm pump failure by trying to start the bleeding routine. It won't start. If you want to confirm it, put a meter on the pump control line while the bleed routine is running and you'll see +6VDC on it, but the pump still won't run. If these are your symptoms, you can be confident that it's a failed pump.
Electrical diagram below. Navigate to engine cooling for your year E60/61 and you'll find wiring color coding, fuse location and control line location. Do yourself a favor and check the fuses before you climb under the car.
Second, the above writeup is really well done, so if you use it this is a straightforward but fiddly job for a confident shadetree mechanic. But, I don't recommend it as the first repair you decide to do on a car. You really don't want this job to fail again because of a loose clamp or improperly seated hoseclip...
Third, pump and thermostat are probably a $900-1000 dealer job. DIY with parts from Pelican and Bav Auto are $450-500 or so net of shipping.
Couple of cooling system diagrams attached, as well.
Again, absolutely a great writeup, and it will guide you through the process if you decide to attempt it. Good luck.
Post-Mortem on aftermarket stuff:
Don't do it.
In my list of components, I said I saved $8 on an aftermarket cap for the expansion tank. Well, after 10k miles that part snapped in two. Note to self: stick with OEM

2006 530I (N52 Engine) with active steering

Hey guys,
Thanks for all the useful info on this thread!
I think I am ready to take the challenge. :-)
From the information I gathered, it seems like my car is set up differently (more hoses that are in the way) because it has active steering and Active-Roll Stabilization System.
Please see the picture and the indicated red arrows. If I loosen them (red arrows), will I have enough space to disconnect the water pump and thermostat assemblies? More importantly, am I going to risk any damage to the active steer/active-roll stabilization system?

Hey guys,
Happy New Year!
Can someone please tell me if I need to remove the three hoses (see red arrows in the pic) to get access to the water/thermostat assembly?
Or will dropping the sway bar be enough to get those three hoses out of the way?
I wonder why my last two posts don't get bumped to the top for people to see?
Hi guys,
My last two posts didn't get bumped to the top for people to see. I am replying to this post simply to see if it would fix the issue.
My Update:
After almost two months (since my purchase of the parts), I finally gained the energy/desire and installed my new water pump and thermostat. It took me a little less than 4.5 hours; and I am so glad I got this project out of the way!
At 83,240, the hoses still look like they can probably last another 80,000 miles. The old pump and thermostat can probably go for another 20,000+ miles. In any case, I know this preventative maintenance will save me money and time in the long run.
More importantly, I want to say the three hoses that I previously asked about do not have to be removed. Lowering the active stabilizer bar was all that was needed for the necessary space to finish the job! I hope this confirmation will put someone at ease when attempting the task some day.
Thank you, OP, PCY, BimmerFan52, my mom (for giving birth to a multi-talented kid, j/k) and everyone (you know who you are) for your help! ;-)
Thanks for the update!
You're welcome, I am glad the update was useful!
I was hesitant to replace the water pump and thermostat because I didn't want to mess up the expensive to replace/fix hydraulic system for my ARS and steering. lol
I'm trying to figure out now whether I want to replace the water pump prophylactically in my wife's E61, which I believe has the original pump (but not the original thermostat) at 98k miles.
Anyone know how much tougher this is to DIY on the wagon, which is an x-drive model? I've never done anything bigger than oil/spark plugs so this would be a big step.
Im having a heck of a time getting your first "remove the PTA" Step done.
Ive got a 530xi, so i can't drop the swaybar to get access to the back supply pipe.
How do I get the pump out? To me, it seems there is a subframe in the way, but obviously you were able to get it out.
I had an oil filter housing gasket leak, so everything under the car is extra unpleasant. It doesn't make it any different, just harder to spend time under there wiggling things.
For anyone with the same problem:
I have a 2006 530xi wagon.
I was trying to follow the bav auto video, but they show removing the block to water pump hose first, to pull out the pump.
With the x drive, there is a subframe in the way and you can't get to the hose.
The solution is to go in from the top. Pull the individual hoses first, then remove the thermostat to pump hose. That will allow you to remove the thermostat housing, and access the back block to pump hose.
Will be putting back together tonight (some of the hoses were in bad shape, and the cylinder head to thermostat hose fell apart as I removed it. Parts didn't come in til today) and will update if there are any more tricks needed.
Nothing too fancy. Was able to do most of it from the top, in the order as was done above.
The difficult part was getting the thermostat to waterpump hose on the waterpump. Since there is no access to the back of the water pump, the u-shaped hose must be tighened down when installing the pump. Then, you get to wiggle the thermostat on to a floppy u shaped hose. I was able to do it with the help of a breaker bar wiggled to the back of the hose, as something to push against.
Then I re-connected all the small hoses, with the Y-shaped hose to the oil cooler going last. I had that one on first, but it had to come off as you can't get the thermostat on with it in the way.
Temps didn't go above 185 driving to work today, where it was 210 and climbing after my wife got the overheat shutdown message, limped it home, and plugged in the ultragauge I had lying around.
I vote it fixed.
Sorry I wasn't there to help in a timely manner. Even though I'm subscribed to this thread I've managed to ignore the emails, not intentionally. What kind of OP have I been? :dunno:
I'm glad people have been inspired to do this job...and not get into trouble.
My 530xi is now gone, as of June 30. We've traded for a 328GT (F34 chassis), which is sized like a spacious 5-series and outweighs the E60 by a couple of hundred pounds. The wife loves it. And I love it because it's under warranty and I don't have to work on it. :p I'm busy enough keeping my '02 325xi running like top. And someone is getting well loved-on E60.
Sport rack: Does anybody need a BMW sport rack for this car? $100 Good condition and has all the correct hardware (plastic liners, rubber booties, manual, torque tool) PM me.
Sorry, I don't know anything about differences on the wagon, though I can't imagine it's any different from my xi. All my photographs were taken on my 530xi. I'll bet it's exactly the same unless you've got the active steering, which my E60 did not have.
Remember, this job is a dexterity challenge as much as anything. It's a bit tight down there so removing components just to get access is the key.
Don't get in over your head though. Good luck and keep us posted.
Feel free to PM me. The one tool that would be useful for getting that 10mm hex-head bolt from underneath the WP and stat would be a 10mm GearWrench ratcheting box-end.
This is a phenomenal write up with awesome pics. Im in the middle of overhauling my cooling system which seems to have waited until around 140,000 to start hemorrhaging from every O-ring on almost every coolant line on the car!....I have heard of alternator problems arising because of this problem too....its right near 2 of the upper coolant hoses.
thanks very much for doing this back in July!
I hope you find this useful when you dive in. Yes, keep your alternator dry. :)
Good luck. Report back if you like. I'm interested in hearing.
Your comment about so many O-rings blowing out has piqued my interest. I have a theory that when our engines overheat, the O-rings get toasted since the temperature gets well above 250F, which is the limit for Buna-N O-rings, according to the O-ring materials charts I've seen.
Did your engine overheat prior to your O-rings failing?
A year and a half ago my water pump went. I was on my way to NH at the time and had just read about the water pump issues as was planning on changing it out....it beat me to it.
The light came on as I was pulling out of a rest stop and I stopped immediately and shut the engine off. maybe 15 seconds after the light came on. So to answer your question...YES it had overheated.
I had to get the job done on the fly in a town I didnt know, but got very lucky and found an awesome place and am very happy...(turns out they left me a bonus too...a 1/4" wobble extension that was nestled down between my steering rack and the frame!)
correlation to the support your theory?...could be!
interesting fact about the type of o-rings BMW uses and their temp limits...This could explain other sites of failure as well.
thanks for the thoughts!

HOLMDEL, NJ -- Several middle school students here reportedly fell ill after drinking a relaxation drink marketed by Marley Beverage Co., prompting an investigation by the school district's foodservice provider.
Chartwells, the school dining service division of Compass Group, said it has removed Marley's Mellow Mood drinks from William R. Satz School and Holmdel High School, and that the product was not approved for sale in any of its schools. An onsite manager has also been removed pending the investigation.
It is unclear what symptoms the sickened students who drank the relaxation drinks exhibited.
"We sincerely regret that this product was sold and that students had an adverse reaction to it," Chartwell's said in a statement. "Chartwells takes great pride and care in partnering with our school communities to provide the best school dining experience possible and we take this situation very seriously."
Marley's Mellow Mood drink, created in partnership with reggae legend Bob Marley's family, is formulated with valerian root, which is associated with promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
Marley Beverage Co. said in a statement that its packaging clearly states that Marley's Mellow Mood is not intended for consumption by children. The company said it has launched its own internal investigation into the incident.

Hac Boston
From HaskellWiki
January 20-22, 2012
MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
1 About
The Haskell Hackathon is an international, grassroots collaborative coding festival with a simple focus: build and improve Haskell libraries, tools, and infrastructure.
Hac Boston will be held January 20-22, 2012 at MIT in Cambridge, MA. It is open to all -- you do not have to be a Haskell guru to attend. All you need is a basic knowledge of Haskell, a willingness to learn, and a project you're excited to help with (or a project of your own to work on).
There will be lots of hacking, some talks, good food, and, of course, fun!
- IRC channel: #haskell-hacboston (freenode)
- Mailing list: firstname.lastname@example.com
2 Registration
If you will be attending, please register. Registration is free, and open to everyone. If you like, you can also list yourself as an attendee. Then check out the projects page.
3 When
January 20-22, 2012 from 2:30-10pm Friday, 9am-10pm Saturday, and 9am-5pm Sunday. There will probably be some talks Saturday afternoon.
Although the hackathon won't officially kick off until 2:30pm on Friday, you are welcome to arrive the evening of Thursday the 20th or Friday morning if it makes for easier travel. If enough people are around and interested, some sort of activity could be arranged for Thursday evening and/or Friday morning.
4 Talks
If you'd be interested in giving a short (15-20 minute) talk, put your name and the subject of your talk on the talks page. There will be a projector and whiteboard available.
5 Sponsors
Hac Boston 2012 is sponsored by Capital IQ, an active user of functional programming!
6 Location
Check out the Google map for info on relevant locations. More information about the room will be forthcoming.
6.1 Getting to the Boston area
See also Wikitravel.
6.1.1 Air
Logan International Airport (BOS) is the closest major airport. From BOS you can take the Silver Line SL1 bus to Boston South Station.
T. F. Green Airport (PVD) in Providence is another option, with a rail connection to Boston South Station.
6.1.2 Train
Amtrak serves Boston South Station, station code BOS. Service from cities in the Northeast is available on both the Northeast Regional train and the marginally faster Acela Express. These trains also stop at Boston Back Bay (BBY). South Station is the better choice if taking transit to MIT, but Back Bay is closer for walking.
From certain points in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, you can take MBTA commuter rail, which arrives at South Station or North Station.
6.1.3 Bus
Boston is served by many bus companies. From New York City, reasonable and cheap options include Megabus, BoltBus, Fung Wah, and Lucky Star.
6.2 Getting to MIT
6.2.1 By human power
Cambridge is a very walkable city. It is feasible to walk to MIT from many points in Cambridge, Boston, and Brookline. Cambridge is also very bikeable, but maybe not in January.
6.2.2 By public transit
MIT is close to Kendall Station on the Red Line subway. The Red Line connects to Boston South Station (and its rail and bus terminals) and the rest of the MBTA rapid transit network. MIT is also served by MBTA buses. Google Maps can plan rail and bus trips.
TODO: Add map and walking directions from Kendall, once location is finalized.
6.2.3 By car
TODO: someone who drives to MIT should add information on routes and parking.
6.3 Accommodation
We're still actively investigating what kinds of bulk deals we can get on hotels in the area.
There are a number of nearby hotels suggested on the MIT web site
There may also be some local residents willing to accommodate a few attendees. See the attendees page for more info.
7 Preparations
7.1 Before you arrive
- Pick out a couple of projects to work on and familiarise yourself with them, or bring your own project(s) to work on. See the projects page for a list of projects people plan to work on. If you plan to work on your own project, be sure to list it on the projects page and set up a public repository if you don't already have one, so that other people can help hack on your project.
- Install an up to date Haskell toolchain: at least ghc and cabal-install. If you don't already have these installed (or need to install from scratch on the laptop you're bringing), the easiest way is probably to install the Haskell Platform.
8 Contact
For any questions or emergencies, you can always call Edward Kmett at (857)244-1001.

EVERETT — A former nursing home, long vacant and in disrepair, may be a step closer to renovation.
A developer wants to buy what was once Virginia Manor, a now-boarded-up building at 3515 Hoyt Ave. that has been empty since 1996, and turn it into a 53-unit apartment complex.
But the prospective buyer wants the Everett City Council to expand a property tax exemption aimed at increasing multifamily housing. The City Council is expected to decide the issue at its meeting at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. Council members last week discussed the exemption but delayed action to learn more about it.
Approval would amend an existing ordinance by changing the boundary of the Multiple Family Property Tax Exemption Area. The change would add six blocks — between 33rd Street and 36th Street, from Rucker to Colby avenues — to the tax-exemption area. Such areas are authorized by state law.
Allan Giffen, the city's planning director, said the tax exemption would apply only to the value of new improvements made to renovate the building for residential use. The value of the land and of the existing building would not be exempt from property taxes. Annual property taxes on the site are now $14,961, of which $3,887 is for the city.
The tax exemption wouldn't be permanent. It would last eight years for an owner creating market-rate rental units, which Giffen said is what the prospective buyer plans. It would last 12 years if at least 20 percent of units qualified as affordable rentals.
"There is a party trying to redevelop the property," said Scott Robertson, of Robertson &Associates Commercial Real Estate. The Bellevue-based company is working with the prospective buyer and the building's owner, Merrico Trust. The 44,000-square-foot nursing home was built in 1964 by C. Raymond Merriwether, now deceased.
"The concept is not unique," Robertson said. "It's an incentive used by a number of jurisdictions. One area, Renton — it's been very successful for them.
"It makes it possible for property that needs to be redeveloped and improved to come in at a reasonable value, so the land owner is able to sell at a reasonable price and the developer removes a little bit of risk," he said.
The price he is negotiating is "nothing I can share," Robertson said. "We're working together trying to make this happen. Everybody wants this."
City Councilman Scott Murphy asked last week about whether the change would cost Everett tax revenue. Giffen said if the property is not redeveloped, the city would continue collecting taxes at the current rate. If it is renovated into apartments, the owner would still pay property taxes on the value of the land and the existing building.
"The net effect could be positive," Giffen said last week, citing the services any new residents would need. "Without the exemptions, we would not have done other developments downtown."
The location is close to downtown workplaces, Giffen said Monday. "It's walking distance to the courthouse or The Everett Clinic," he said.
"This is the kind of property, close to downtown, that the tax exemption is designed for," Everett City Council member Brenda Stonecipher said at last week's meeting. "It can be the tipping point that causes a developer to take on a project."

Hi all,
I've been running backtrack on a virtual machine on my computer for a few weeks now. I've formatted my old macbook and installed backtrack 5 R2 on it. The downside to this, is that my screen is really dark! Is there any way to install some sort of patch that allows you to use the macbook keys? i.e. the brightness and disk eject keys?
Thanks guys!

Pacifier Use
One of my nieces, she's 3 and I've been taking care of her. I've been trying to wean her off using the pacifiers. Everyone keeps telling me that I should stop her from using pacifiers because they could result in crooked or bad looking teeth. Is there any truth on this? because I am very worried about it. Thanks to anyone who replies
23rd June 2012 08:53 PM #2
My health visitor advised that after the age of 1 children should not use a pacifier any more as it can affect their teeth.
However, lots of children over this age do still use a pacifier and it can be difficult to break this habit. But with some patience and time you can do it! One technique which my friend used successfully was to tell her child that her favourite teddy needed the pacifier and she was a big girl so no longer had to have it as it was 'for babies'. They gave the teddy the pacifier at night-time and the little girl was happy!
Some parents find that weaning their child off the pacifier gradually works best for them. For example, at first she could only have it for naps and at night, then only at night, then not at all.
I hope it is an easy transition for you and your niece,

Once again, some great ideas from LJ.
You could put the pacifier in her bed and let her know that she can only use it when she's in bed. You could also make it so that she is only allowed to have it when you're holding her (it's a "cuddle" thing). Same for the bottles that you mentioned that the younger girls use. Let them know that they can only have the bottle when you are holding them (like a child would breastfeed from her mother - she would only have the nipple in her mouth when she is feeding). But I think the girls are old enough to just throw the bottles away and start drinking from their special cups.
Let us know how the transition goes - we're here to support and give ideas.
Warm regards,

I would suggest that you take it away gently. Though it is true that it can be damaging to the structure of the teeth, she is certainly not the only three-year-old to still rely on a paci for comfort. My kids never cared for pacifiers, which I think is probably a good thing because I have heard they are a terrible habit to break. As the others have suggested, I would begin by dropping daytime use and then gradually decrease night use. Similar to the way you would gently wean a baby from the breast or bottle.
Best of luck!

Angela had a good suggestion too. It is helpful if you can have something to replace whatever it is you're taking away. So if you're taking away the pacifier, you could replace by offering to rock her back to sleep (if it's at night) or if during the day, determine when she is asking for it (is it when she is bored, when she is watching TV, when she gets home, when she is out, etc.) and determine what is triggering it. Is she needing security and reaching for the pacifier? Once you determine what is triggering the need, you'll be able to better replace it with something that meets the need in a better way.
Warm regards,

3 Big Stocks Rising on Big Volume - views
MADISON, Wis. (Stockpickr) -- Professional traders running mutual funds and hedge funds don't just look at a stock's price moves; they also track big changes in volume activity. Often when above-average volume moves into an equity, it precedes a large spike in volatility.
Major moves in volume can signal unusual activity, such as insider buying or selling -- or buying or selling by "superinvestors."
>>5 Earnings Stocks the Bears Hate -- but You Should Love
Unusual volume can also be a major signal that hedge funds and momentum traders are piling into a stock ahead of a catalyst. These types of traders like to get in well before a large spike, so it's always a smart move to monitor unusual volume. That said, remember to combine trend and price action with unusual volume. Put them all together to help you decipher the next big trend for any stock.
With that in mind, let's take a look at several stocks rising on unusual volume today.
>>5 Stocks With Big Insider Buying
Canadian Solar
Canadian Solar (CSIQ) designs, develops, manufactures and sells solar cell and solar module products that convert sunlight into electricity. This stock closed up 13.1% at $10.10 on Wednesday.
Wednesday's Volume: 6.99 million
Average Volume: 2.04 million
Volume % Change: 184%
Shares of CSIQ ripped higher on Wednesday after the company announced a new deal with Samsung Renewable Energy to open a new manufacturing facility in London, Ontario.
>>4 Tech Stocks Under $10 to Watch
From a technical perspective, CSIQ soared higher right above some near-term support at $8.30 with heavy upside volume. This stock has been trending sideways for the last month, with shares moving between $8.30 on the downside and $10.65 on the upside. Shares of CSIQ are now quickly moving within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade above the upper end of its sideways chart pattern. That breakout will hit if CSIQ manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $10.56 to its 52-week high at $10.65 with high volume.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in CSIQ as long as it's trending above $9 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 2.04 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then CSIQ will set up to enter new 52-week high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $12 to $13. Any high-volume move above those levels will then put its next significant overhead resistance levels at $14 to $16 into range for shares of CSIQ.
NYSE Euronext
NYSE Euronext (NYX) is a global operator of financial markets and provider of trading solutions. This stock closed up 1.8% at $41.66 on Wednesday.
Wednesday's Volume: 3.91 million
Average Volume: 1.65 million
Volume % Change: 128%
>>4 Big Stocks on Traders' Radars
From a technical perspective, NYX trended higher here right above its 50-day moving average of $39.77 with heavy upside volume. This stock has been uptrending strong for the last three months, with shares moving higher from its low of $36.27 to its recent high of $42.42. During that move, shares of NYX have been mostly making higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish technical price action. That move has now pushed shares of NYX within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit if NYX manages to take out its 52-week high at $42.42 with high volume.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in NYX as long as it's trending above its 50-day at $39.77 and then once it sustains a move or close above its 52-week high of $42.42 with volume that this near or above 1.65 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then NYX will set up to enter new 52-week-high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $45 to $50.
Allergan (AGN) is a multi-specialty health care company develops and commercializes innovative pharmaceuticals, biologics and medical devices. This stock closed up 1.8% to $86.81 on Wednesday.
Wednesday's Volume: 5.14 million
Average Volume: 2.56 million
Volume % Change: 132%
Shares of AGN trended slightly higher today despite the fact that Wells Fargo downgraded the stock to market perform from outperform.
>>3 Health Care Stocks Trending Higher
From a technical perspective, AGN bounced modestly higher here right off of $85 with above-average volume. This stock has been downtrending badly for the last few weeks, with shares plunging lower from its high of $102.94 to its recent low of $81.33. During that downtrend, shares of AGN have been consistently making lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That move also pushed shares of AGN into oversold territory, since its relative strength index reading dipped well below 30. Oversold can always get move oversold, but shares of AGN have started to rebound and move within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit if AGN manages to take out its recent gap down day high of $88.24 with high volume.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in AGN as long as it's trending above $85 and then once it sustains a move or close above its gap down day high of $88.24 with volume that hits near or above 2.56 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then AGN will set up to re-fill some of its previous gap down zone that started near $95. Any high-volume move above $95 will then give AGN a chance to re-test or possibly take out its 200-day moving average at $99.99.

Justin Bieber makes cameo in video for Madison Beer
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio
Justin Bieber is giving his endorsement to another up-and-coming young singer.
The pop star made a cameo appearance in the debut video of Madison Beer, a 14-year-old from Long Island, New York who he discovered himself on YouTube.
Last year, Justin heard Madison singing a cover of Etta James' "At Last," and posted the video to his Twitter page. It went viral. Since then, Madison has been taken under the wing of Justin's manager Scooter Braun. Madison, who's being called Bieber's new protégée, released her debut single called "Melodies" on Thursday.
Scooter and Justin are responsible for kickstarting the career of Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen. They've also supported current Billboard 200 topper Ariana Grande by bringing her on Justin's "Believe" tour.

U.S. News: Darla Moore School reclaims No. 2 IB spot
By Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-7704
The Darla Moore School of Business reclaimed its No. 2 spot in U.S.News & World Report's 2012 graduate rankings of top international graduate business programs, and its part-time MBA (PMBA) Program moved up five points to 36th nationally.
The Moore School also jumped eight points to tie for 54th in the overall listing of the nation's top graduate programs in business.
Two other USC programs continue to be included in the top five in their categories in the 2012 edition of "Best Graduate Schools."
The School Library Media Program is ranked No. 2, and the Doctoral Program in Social Psychology in the College of Arts and Sciences' department of sociology ranked No. 4. The School of Library and Information Science is ranked No. 17. Although these rankings are published in the 2012 guide, they are based on data and evaluations from previous years.
USC Provost Michael Amiridis said the rankings clearly show that the excellence of USC's graduate programs is being recognized nationally.
"Increasingly, an advanced degree is becoming crucial for career success, particularly in certain fields," Amiridis said. "The U.S.News & World Report rankings provide an additional external validation for the excellence of some of our graduate programs. I congratulate the faculty and the students of these programs."
Moore School Dean Hildy Teegen said the ranking shows unequivocally that the investments made in the Darla Moore School of Business are paying off.
"This is validation that our investment in our future and the hard work of our faculty, staff and students are coming to fruition," Teegen said. "We continue to be recognized as a global leader for our offerings in international business. The PMBA ranking is also highly significant, particularly as we launch our unique telepresence learning infrastructure to support working professionals eager to learn from the excellent faculty here at Moore.

Israeli National Security Adviser heads to EU for ´sensitive´ talks on Iran (HA´ARETZ NEWS) By Barak Ravid 05/01/12)
Source: http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/israeli-national-security-adviser-heads-to-eu-for-sensitive-talks-on-iran-1.427395
HA'ARETZ} NEWS SERVICE Articles-Index-Top
National Security Adviser Yaakov Amidror traveled to Brussels on Monday for secret meetings with European officials ahead of the second round of talks between Iran and six world powers.
His trip reflects Israel´s concern about the possibility of a deal that would ultimately condone Iran´s enrichment of uranium.
Amidror met on Monday with Helga Schmid, who serves as the European Union´s deputy secretary general for political affairs, under Catherine Ashton. Schmid is coordinating preparatory talks with Iran ahead of the second round of negotiations about its nuclear program, scheduled for May 23 in Baghdad.
Ashton, the EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, heads the negotiation team for talks with Iran. The team is comprised of delegates from the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany. During the next three weeks, Schmid will be in contact with the deputy head of Iran´s negotiating team, Ali Bagheri, to lay the groundwork for the next round of talks.
On Tuesday, Amidror will continue to meet European officials in Brussels, before heading for Berlin on Wednesday. In Germany, Amidror is expected to meet with his German counterpart, Christoph Heusgen, and with Germany´s representative in the talks with Iran, Hans-Dieter Lucas.
A senior Israeli official said the talks in Brussels and Berlin are "extremely sensitive." He indicated that Amidror hopes to find out much more about the first round of talks with Iran and will ask for an explanation of the negotiating team´s strategy for the second round of negotiations.
Two weeks ago, Amidror visited Moscow for a similar set of talks. He met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who firmly said his country opposes any unilateral Israeli military action against nuclear facilities in Iran and believes that such an Israeli action would have destructive consequences throughout the Middle East.
Lavrov and other Russian officials told Amidror that the Iranians brought a positive attitude to the first round of talks in Istanbul. Russian officials say the Iranians are prepared to cut a deal reducing the scope of their nuclear program. Russia is proposing an agreement under which Iran would be prohibited to assemble new centrifuges for uranium enrichment and would round up all existing assembled centrifuges that are not in use.
A series of reports that reached Jerusalem from Washington, Moscow, Paris and other capitals following the first round of negotiations led Israeli officials to suspect that the six powers were on the verge of striking an agreement with Iran that would not require Tehran to bring its nuclear program to a complete halt. A number of sources indicate that such a deal would feature an Iranian announcement that it was halting its effort to enrich uranium at levels higher than 20 percent and agreed to send any existing uranium enriched at that level or higher out of the country.
Such a deal may also include Iranian consent to allow international inspection of its underground nuclear facility near Qom, sources said.
The sources speculated that Iran might demand in exchange that the Western powers agree to lift economic sanctions.
Iran is particularly eager to keep the European Union from expanding its embargo on the country´s oil exports and hopes to keep Western countries from boycotting its central bank. Both measures are slated to go into effect July 1. (© Copyright 2012 Ha´aretz 05/01/12)

Today is Tuesday, Feb. 5, the 36th day of 2013. There are 329 days left in the year.
Today's highlight:
On Feb. 5, 1973, services were held at Arlington National Cemetery for U.S. Army Col. William B. Nolde, the last official American combat casualty before the Vietnam cease-fire took effect.
On this date:
In 1783, Sweden recognized the independence of the United States.
In 1811, George, the Prince of Wales, was named Prince Regent due to the mental illness of his father, Britain's King George III.
In 1887, Verdi's opera "Otello" premiered at La Scala.
In 1917, Congress passed, over President Woodrow Wilson's veto, an immigration act severely curtailing the influx of Asians. Mexico's constitution was adopted.
In 1922, the first edition of Reader's Digest was published.
In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt proposed increasing the number of U.S. Supreme Court justices; the proposal, which failed in Congress, had critics accusing Roosevelt of attempting to "pack" the nation's highest court.
In 1940, Glenn Miller and his orchestra recorded "Tuxedo Junction" for RCA Victor's Bluebird label.
In 1953, Walt Disney's animated feature "Peter Pan" was first released.
In 1967, "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" premiered on CBS-TV.
In 1971, Apollo 14 astronauts Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell stepped onto the surface of the moon in the first of two lunar excursions.
In 1983, former Nazi Gestapo official Klaus Barbie, expelled from Bolivia, was brought to Lyon, France, to stand trial. (He was convicted of war crimes and sentenced to life in prison; he died in 1991.)
In 1988, the Arizona House impeached Gov. Evan Mecham, setting the stage for his trial in the state Senate, where he was convicted of obstructing justice and misusing funds.
Ten years ago: Secretary of State Colin Powell urged the U.N. Security Council to move against Saddam Hussein, saying Iraq had failed to disarm, was harboring terrorists and was hiding behind a "web of lies." Longtime CBS News radio reporter Larry LeSueur died in Washington at age 93.
Five years ago: John McCain seized command of the race for the Republican presidential nomination, winning delegate-rich primaries from the East Coast to California on Super Tuesday; Democratic rivals Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama traded victories. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, a guru to the Beatles who introduced the West to transcendental meditation, died at his home in the Dutch town of Vlodrop.
One year ago: Josh Powell, long identified as a person of interest in the 2009 disappearance of his wife, Susan, set fire to his home in Graham, Wash., killing himself and his two sons, 7-year-old Charles and 5-year-old Braden, who had shown up for a supervised visit. Eli Manning and the Giants one-upped Tom Brady and the Patriots again, coming back with a last-minute score to beat New England 21-17 for New York's fourth NFL title in Super Bowl XLVI (46).

Helis To Revise Its Application For Oil Drilling Project In St. Tammany
A spokesman for Helis Oil and Gas says the company is now in the process of filing a revised application for an oil exploration project in St. Tammany Parish.
In an interview on the Denny Schaffer Show Thursday, Greg Beurman said Helis will apply for a permit to drill a vertical well and would seek another permit for fracking if there was an indication the project would be commercially viable.
Beurman calls the revisions based on Army Corps of Engineers' recommendations a slight delay and not a setback, as has been widely reported.
"They have essentially given us a road map for how this project should work, and we're gonna follow that road map and we're gonna end up drilling this well," Beurman said.
Beurman also told Schaffer he's expecting some additional positive news about the project in the next few days, but that's all he would say.

I do a lot of photographic retouching and worked in a darkened area. Lighted keyboard allows me to use keyboard shortcuts without tuning on light to find the specific keys.

Stacey Barnes, owner of Scottsdale GoodyTwo's, shares the benefits of using Shopkeep's cloud-based, iPad POS System for easier transactions and manageability.
Bulky, noisy and generally unattractive, cash registers are not particularly glamorous, and by today's standards have limited functionality. And local businesses, including GoodyTwos Toffee Company, have upgraded to a much more economical, manageable and accessible point of sale (POS) system for the tech-savvy age — ShopKeep's cloud-based POS.
Like many business owners, Stacey Barnes and Donna Gabrilson of GoodyTwos Toffee Company (founded in 2004 by the mother/daughter duo) decided to make the upgrade and switched to the sleekly-housed, web-based program, which delivers the cash register's essential capability, while also providing data that informs smart, timely business decisions.
ShopKeep POS not only receives your payment, it simplifies and automates the complicated process of reporting on sales, which permits business owners to track up-to-the-second sales data and inventory. This data can be segmented and presented in multiple formats, enabling business owners to make better decisions. This same data can also be accessed from any device because all of the intelligence is stored in the cloud.
Shopkeep created an app for the iPad," Barnes says. "The iPad was more affordable compared to the other hardware you would have to buy with traditional POS."
With iPad registers and a streamlined back-end portal, ShopKeep utilizes tools that assist small businesses to grow more cost effectively, minimizing time, labor and the risk of the unknown.
I can see daily, monthly, annual, top selling items and what time of the day is the busiest for GoodyTwos," Barnes says. "You can generate reports, manage your inventory and control your employee access ― all of which helps us run our business smarter."
Chris Pace, managing principal of Congruity Solutions, is an authorized reseller partner for ShopKeep for the Phoenix area, and he personally installed ShopKeep at GoodyTwos.
Pace encourages owners and managers of businesses small and large to make the switch.
ShopKeep is simple in design; young and old alike use Apple technology, so the learning curve is quite simple for most people," Pace says. "Large companies benefit from having data outside of their walls, with tighter security and redundant backup, all with no incremental hardware investment. Cloud-based systems mean you only pay for what you use."
Barnes and Gabrilson say they are confident that the switch to the cloud-based POS represents their dedication to a quality product with an innovative twist.
The system allows us to show our brand in a new, exciting way," Gabrilson says. "GoodyTwos has always been about our wholesome products showcased in a modern, fun light, and this adds an element of technology."
For the ladies of GoodyTwos Toffee, Shopkeep has made managing their business and checking out customers not only more efficient, but also a bit sweeter.

the correction zone to prevent over correction.

How it works:
The PetSafe In-Ground Fence has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective
for all pets up to 55 pounds with neck sizes 6"-26". The system
works by producing a radio signal from the Fence Transmitter through up to 4000
feet of Boundary Wire. The Boundary Wire is buried or attached to a fixed object
to enclose the Pet Area. You temporarily define the Pet Area with Boundary Flags
for a visual aid in training your pet. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar with
Contact Points that touch his neck, and, once trained, is allowed to roam freely
in the Pet Area. When your pet reaches the Warning Zone, the Receiver Collar
gives a warning beep. If your pet continues into the Static Correction Zone,
a safe Static Correction will be delivered through the Contact Points to get
his attention until he returns to the Pet Area.

Ogden • It started with Herriman's big man, Tueni Lupeamanu, driving the lane.
The Mustangs had trailed Highland for four quarters in their Class 4A state tournament contest, but Lupeamanu's floater evened the score.
Only 4.3 seconds remained, and the Rams' offense had cooled.
Overtime seemed a certainty to everyone.
Everyone except Z Arima, who led the Mustangs to a 44-42 victory Tuesday.
Arima wasn't defending the inbound ball he was trolling for the steal.
The senior constantly was reprimanded throughout the season for not getting back on defense.
Arima knew he had it this time.
How could he not?
So with those 4.3 seconds, Arima threw up his hands to knock down the two-handed inbounds pass. He corralled the loose ball to the right of the basket before trying to throw up a shot while getting fouled with authority. The impossible seizure stunned the packed crowd, which responded with a roar.
"I've been doing that all season, usually getting my butt chewed out for it," Arima said with a laugh. "I guessed it worked out that time."
An assistant coach to Arima's left laughed and shook his head that this time Arima would get away with the aggressive play.
Arima coolly drained both free throws to complete again what Herriman has done all season grind its way through another close victory.
"This is something I've been doing in my driveway since I was 4," Arima said. "It's cool, living out a dream."
Herriman trailed Highland for most of the game, and the Rams led by as much as 13 points in the second half. The undersized Rams dismantled the Mustang defense with David Divver's passing and scoring.
But Herriman cut its deficit to three points entering the fourth quarter.
"Grinding, that's our game Herriman tough," Lupeamanu said. "That's our kind of ball game. We never blow out a team."
Herriman faces Mountain Crest on Thursday in the quarterfinals.
"I'm excited," Lupeamanu said. "I'll probably just sleep in the locker room until they come get me."
Storylines Mustangs 44, Rams 42
R Herriman's Z Arima steals an inbound pass with 4.3 seconds left and makes the winning free throws.

Jacqueline Nolan-Haley Receives Award for Best ADR ArticleJanuary 25, 2013
Fordham Law Professor Jacqueline Nolan-Haley has received the Outstanding Original Professional Article award from the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution (CPR). The award recognizes an article published by academics and other professionals that advances understanding in the field of ADR.
Nolan-Haley was granted the award for her article "Mediation: The 'New Arbitration'" 17 Harvard Negotiation Law Review 61 (2012). In the article, Nolan-Haley explains that mediation is increasingly moving into the realm of arbitration practice. This directional shift, she argues, is problematic because it clashes with mediation's core values of self-determination and participation and limits the spectrum of options available to disputing parties, depriving them of mediation's benefits.
The CPR Institute presented its 30th Annual Awards for Outstanding Scholarship in ADR during its annual meeting on January 17, 2013 at a ceremony held at the Lodge at Torrey Pines, La Jolla, California. The Institute's Awards Program recognizes exceptional practical achievement and scholarship in the field of alternative dispute resolution. Award criteria focuses on processes, techniques, systems, commitment, and scholarship which address the resolution, prevention, or creative management of major disputes involving public or business institutions between corporations, governments, or other parties.
The CPR Institute is an independent nonprofit comprised of global corporations, law firms, scholars, and public institutions dedicated to the principles of commercial conflict prevention and alternative dispute resolution (ADR).

The House took a shot Wednesday at slowing down a dirty campaign tactic called "push polling" that is aimed at swaying not measuring public opinion.
Such polls ask loaded questions like, "If you knew that candidate A was a scoundrel, would you be more or less likely to vote for him," said House Majority Whip Greg Hughes, R-Draper, sponsor of HB44.
The House voted 64-8 to pass his bill to require all polls to identify who paid for them. Hughes said that would show voters who is doing such things, and maybe slow the tactic.
Rep. Carol Moss, D-Holladay, said she was targeted in the last election for months by such anonymous polls. "Most people deduced it was by my opponent," she said. "It was a very unpleasant thing to be a victim of that kind of misleading attacks and prejudicial questions, and it's high time we made this transparent so people know who's responsible."
But Rep. Joel Briscoe, D-Salt Lake City, warned it still would be easy to escape disclosure by forming another group with a generic name to actually pay for the poll instead of a candidate. Hughes said his bill would at least create some trail to follow, which current law does not.
Rep. Brian King, D-Salt Lake City, opposed the bill saying the disclosure requirement would have "a chilling effect on free speech."
Hughes said the bill is not much different than requiring disclosure of who donates money to political campaigns. "I might get more contributions if I didn't have to disclose any of my contributors, too," he said, adding that more transparency is needed.
The bill creates a $100 penalty for groups that fail to disclose who pays for the polls or misrepresent who is paying. It now goes to the House.
