Grigory Yavlinsky: Property and vulnerability: expropriation can happen to anyone
Most of Russia's population now understands the social order of our country to mean that certain individuals in power are exempt from any and all rules and restrictions: free to do whatever they want to any citizen. A side-effect of this is that any individual with something to lose is highly vulnerable.
A very harsh, if not brutal, foundation of legislation for criminal prosecution in the field of economic activity has been established in Russia. The quantity of restrictions that carry criminal penalties is incredibly large, by the standards of the industrialized world, given that the minimal value threshold for those penalties is extremely low.
On the other hand, most of economic practice has been extremely liberal – even anarchic – for many years. The level of law-abiding behavior among the economically active population was reduced to a minimum.
The combination of these two factors, along with the peculiarities of Russia's law enforcement practice and the high level of corruption in the state apparatus, has produced a situation where legal protection for the interests of economically active citizens is a nonexistent category. The legal system -primarily the judicial system – isn't very useful for resolving minor problems, since ensuring that court verdicts are handed down and enforced requires a disproportionate amount of time, resources, and energy. And resolving major problems – involving truly substantial property interests – lies outside the legal dimension entirely.
Moreover, in a situation where almost any economically active citizen can become the target of criminal prosecution, business owners can – and, to a very significant degree, should – regard the law enforcement system as a threat to their personal liberty and security. This probably applies equally to big business and medium-sized business, and, to a lesser extent, to the medium-level and senior bureaucracy. With regard to them, the system in question does not function as a mechanism for protecting the weak but law-abiding; it functions as an instrument for legalizing the rights of the strong.
Most of Russia's population now understands the social order of our country to mean that certain individuals in power are exempt from any and all rules and restrictions: free to do whatever they want to "the small" or any citizen in particular. Aside-effect of this is that any individual with something to lose is highly vulnerable: from civil servants and business owners at any level, who have some amount of property or power, to the most deprived ordinary citizens, who might lose the roof over their heads, their health, or their physical liberty at any moment.
Presumably, the role that ought to be played by the system of public law in this process is actually performed by customs -otherwise known as "understandings" – which succeed, more or less, in regulating relations between individuals and groups. But in a country as vast and complex as Russia, such substitutes cannot provide a sufficiently firm and stable foundation for social relationships or the current balance of interests between particular groups, each of which acts according to its own customs and rules, or without any rules at all.
When applied to the economy, this means, for example, that the threat of expropriation (not necessarily official) is sensed by each and every participant in economic activity, in a completely clear and overt form. Even the most successful individuals understand that their prosperity is provisional, and if their assets happen to catch the eye of someone who is stronger and more influential at the moment, they won't have any defense against inevitable requisition. However, even people who aren't business owners understand that their ownership of any property is only provisional; that is, they own it until someone stronger and more aggressive wants to take it away, as long as the size of the property can cover the costs of the process of taking it away.
The most popular reaction to this instability is as follows: once people achieve a certain level of prosperity, they seek to safeguard themselves and their property by departing for more or less permanent residence abroad. This process has reached a fairly noticeable scale. Several million Russian citizens are now living in the European Union and North America.
For a number of reasons, however, emigration cannot be an effective solution for entrepreneurs, especially the most successful of them, who find themselves in an ambiguous position in Russia.
Firstly, money tends to run out; and establishing an autonomous business abroad (that is, a business not based on one's capabilities in Russia) is problematic. None of the "fugitive" Russian business owners have managed to replicate even a tenth of their Russian success in the West (let alone the East). The best they can hope for is a modest income, by the standards of the entrepreneurial class, and the position of an outsider in local business circles.
Secondly, Russia's weak protection for property rights is usually contrasted with the reliable, effective protection provided in Western countries – and this sometimes creates false impressions of how things really are in the West. Reliance on the law is a double-edged sword. You can rely on the law's unconditional protection only if your own business dealings have been legally spotless – and there might be some serious difficulties with that. Moreover, the principle of everyone being equal before the law is a good thing, of course; but there is still the natural distinction between "one of us" and an outsider, as viewed by Westerners, including those who work in the law enforcement and judicial systems. If any Russian citizens intention business emigration assume that this is something they'll never encounter, they risk being seriously disillusioned on finding that the law can be a weapon not only for defending property, but also for confiscating it.
Thirdly, leaving aside the problem of legal protection for property rights, there is also the problem of an émigré's relations with the government and the local business community -which can and probably will turn out to be quite complicated, especially given the long-term trend of deteriorating relations between the Western establishment and the Russian political elite.
Thus, a strange situation has arisen – created by the Russian authorities themselves. It is primarily disadvantageous for the societal layer generally known as the elite: the layer of people who possess wealth and influence. These are the people who are most at risk of facing pressure from the security and law enforcement agencies, or de facto expropriation; consequently, they should be more aware than other citizens of the instability and abnormality of their current position. In the industrialized world, in states based on the rule of law, wealth and success bring a sense of security and confidence in the future; but in Russia, those very same things, in the overwhelming majority of cases, increase the risk of attracting major problems.

Sidney water-rate increase up for approval
SIDNEY — Village officials next month will decide whether to approve a resolution increasing Sidney's water rates by 4 percent.
The village board's water committee recommended the rate increase following a special meeting last week. The resolution might include a policy making the 4 percent increase annual except for years in which supplier Illinois American Water raises its rates.
Supervisor of Operations Earl Bennett said that while the village currently has a $14,000 surplus in its water account, more money is needed to help cover the cost of water system repairs. Bennett noted that last year a water main repair project on David Street under the Norfolk & Southern railroad tracks cost the village about $75,000. The village water tower also needs to be painted, and a water main replacement project will cost an estimated $50,000, Bennett added.
"I can do two or three projects, and that $14,000 is gone," Bennett said, explaining that the parts alone for repairing three water leaks can cost $13,000.
Prior to October 2008, the village had absorbed all rate increases from Illinois American since 1989.
"It seems like every three or four years we're seeing an increase," Trustee Mark Catron said.

Bayern Munich midfielder Javi Martinez has insisted that he will need time to get back to his usual best after a spell on the sidelines due to injury.
Martinez underwent groin surgery back in September, but recently returned to match action again after a two-month absence.
"I am optimistic that I will soon be fit again. It's impossible to be back at my usual best right away, though," the Spaniard told TZ.
"I underwent surgery and was unable to play for a while. I will need time. I am already feeling a lot better than I had expected. I need a lot of training now.
"Things are going well, as far as that is possible after a two-month spell on the sidelines. I want to regain peak fitness again as soon as possible."
The 25-year-old has made six appearances in all competitions so far this campaign, scoring once in the process.

I was in the same boat as you in early pregnancy. I'm 37 weeks pregnant now with my rainbow baby, but for the first 10-12 weeks I was pretty much just waiting around to lose this baby. I thought for sure it was going to happen again, and it was like pins and needles just waiting for the other shoe to drop. After I passed my loss date I started to feel a little more secure, and then much more so after I started to feel this baby kick around 19 weeks. That was the most reassuring part for me.
I think you just have to take it as it comes, and try not to beat yourself up for not feeling the way you think you should. Loss changes us. Congratulations on your BFP though! Sending positive thoughts your way.

WASHINGTON -- Arizona Republican Rep. Rick Renzi, whose wife's business was searched by the FBI on Thursday, says he will temporarily step down from the House Intelligence Committee.
Law enforcement officials confirmed in October that they were scrutinizing a land deal that would benefit a Renzi friend and business associate who was also a campaign donor.
House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Friday that Renzi told him of the search and volunteered to step down from the committee, which has some oversight authority over the FBI, "to avoid any unnecessary distractions on the panel and its critical work."
Spokesmen for the FBI and the U.S. attorney's office in Arizona declined to comment. A lawyer for Renzi did not return repeated calls for comment.
Renzi has denied any wrongdoing. In a statement issued late Thursday, he acknowledged that the FBI had taken documents from the family business.
"I view these actions as the first step in bringing out the truth," Renzi said. "Until this matter is resolved, I will take a leave of absence from the House Intelligence Committee. I intend to fully cooperate with this investigation."
Personal financial disclosure forms filed with the House last May show Renzi's wife, Roberta, owned the Patriot Insurance Agency Inc. It was valued at between $1 million and $5 million.
The agency is located in a sprawling ranch-style home in Sonoita, Ariz., which is not in Renzi's congressional district.
A reporter who knocked on the door Friday was directed to Tucson, Ariz., lawyer Mick Rusing, who was not immediately available for comment. A white vehicle in the garage displayed a decorative license plate that said, "Rick Renzi for Congress."
The raid on Renzi's business happened the same day that Rep. John Doolittle, R-Calif., temporarily stepped down from the House Appropriations Committee.
Renzi disclosed the raid and stepped down immediately. Doolittle disclosed that agents had raided his Virginia home only after it became public several days later.
It also comes a day after Senate Judiciary Committee members grilled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales about the firing of eight U.S. attorneys last year, including Arizona's Paul Charlton.
Democrats have demanded to know whether the firings were related to political corruption investigations by the prosecutors. Charlton's office opened its investigation into Renzi sometime before the 2006 election. Charlton was fired Dec. 7.
Few new details were available Friday linking the Patriot Insurance Agency to the land deal officials have acknowledged they were investigating.
That deal involved an October 2005 land sale, which Renzi helped promote. The sale netted a former business partner, James Sandlin, $4.5 million.
Associated Press writer Arthur H. Rotstein in Tucson, Ariz., contributed to this report.

Almost all Mac users know what a Dashboard widget is.
It's a simple and small HTML/WebKit based application bundled with some optional code plugins. That's all in theory…
DesktopWidget is a light and powerful Dashboard extension specially designed for either active widget users and developers.
You can organize your widget collection and simulate almost every widget. Extend your possibilities with our simple but powerful tool.
DesktopWidget is not a replacement for the Dashboard of course. In the Dashboard you can leave tons of widgets you don't need every moment.
But do you ever wanted to have important informers like a small semi-transparent world clock, king sized weather, important stickies and currency rate widgets pined right to your desktop or floating above all windows and totally ignore mouse at the same time?
No problem at all – pin your widgets to the Desktop wallpaper, adjust transparency and zoom them with fun. Two-way scaling feature (transform & zoom) is just for you. It is experimental but useful at least for the following purposes – zoomed-out mode to save screen space, zoomed-in mode for presentation mode or for people with disabilities.
With DesktopWidget all your widgets will receive second breath, really!
Leave main widget collection on the built-in OSX dashboard, and use subset of them as desktop widgets. Show and hide all desktop widgets with a single hotkey!
You'll receive total control over your widget collection behavior.
It's not a joke! Give a chance to DesktopWidget and try it right now.
Check its security sandbox options while developing or before launching 3rd party widgets to try.
Furthermore, you can convert a widget to a standalone application, so you can run it anytime right via Finder or from your Dock
(note: there is only one limitation – DesktopWidget.app contains required runtime, so it must be installed at the same Mac).
If you are developer – you can visually check control regions and java script errors while developing, inspect any parts of your widget on the fly.
The missed Sync – yeah, it's true, with DesktopWidget you can sync either your widgets and their preferences between all your Macs via Dropbox.
With a simple custom CSS & HTML/JS, you can adjust content and styles, and clip required area of a widget, on the fly, even without touching widget content at all.
Do you really think that's all?
There is one more thing…
Widget automatization with scripting!
Now you can interact with simulated widgets right from your projects written in any language (Objective-C, AppleScript, Shell, etc).
Discover your new possibilities with DesktopWidget.
Now check the Great Features summary:
- Mountain Lion compatible
- Simulate dashboard widgets with 99.9% accuracy
- All widgets can run outside of dashboard right where you want
- Organizer with grouping (by locations via folders), locations renaming
- Menubar mode with the amazing popover
- Loading and running Widgets from any place (e.g. personal folder, sharing with Dropbox)
- Developer mode (Web Inspector + Control Regions Visualizer)
- You can create widgets by cloning any existing widget's configuration
- Transparency control (per widget)
- Zoom control to scale Widget (experimental)
- Compilation of a widget to a standalone application
- Mouse indifference option
- Widget window level control (Normal, Desktop or Topmost levels)
- Appearance control (effects)
- Sync your widgets and preferences between your Macs (via Dropbox)
- Advanced security control: define your own permissions for every widget before launching
- Tweaks (built-in + custom CSS, HTML and JS injections on the fly, per widget)
- Widget automatization
DesktopWidget Tips
You can create instance of a widget via simple Drag&Drop from the widget list, via double click to the widget name or by pressing the Enter key.
You can do the same with the menubar popover.
You have to select appropriate display mode option in the Preferences to enable the menubar popover.
To destroy a widget
- You can simple close widgets while Widget List window has focus
- Hold Ctrl key while hovering mouse on widget, then click close button
- Use DesktopWidget main menu – Window – My Widgets – click to a widget while holding Ctrl key
- Click to a widget and press CMD-Ctrl-Q
- To close all widgets press CMD-OPT-Shift-U
We changed Dashboard OPT to Ctrl due to system issues – the OSX actively uses clicks with OPT to hiding applications, to prevent collisions we changed this behavior.
Please note, widgets with Desktop level don't react to mouse at all (except time while you are holding Ctrl key), you have to return their level to Normal or Above all to close them, or just use Window – My Widgets way. See also tooltips with coordinates.
To temporary hide a widget – click to widget window, then press CMD-H. Or use File menu – Hide (CMD-OPT-U).
You can show hidden widgets back from main menu – Window – My Widgets, or Dock contextual menu.
You can use hotkey to hide/show all widgets.
You can temporary unload all widgets via CMD-U (or File menu 'Unload' item). You can load widgets back via CMD-L.
All widgets will load automatically on program run.
All widgets will unload automatically on program quit, but only when 'Close my widgets on quit' option is active.
Add custom location to the list. You can also add any widget to the root of the list (but not as child nodes). You can rename root entries, including either location or partial widget.
List has two modes – locations and merged view, so you can customize view from the main menu.
Merged mode shows widgets only without duplicates. Just keep in mind one simple rule – widget from location bellow in the list will have priority and will override previous instance. Menubar popover always works in merged mode.
To adjust widget preferences select a widget in the list, then click the preferences button at the bottom of the list, or simple use contextual menu in the list. You can do the same via standard Preferences menu item while holding OPT key (CMD-OPT-,), or by changing selection in the list while Preferences panel is open.
Please note
- Permissions will be applied after next widget load
- Scaling, CSS/HTML preferences will apply for new widget instances only, and will not affect already existing widgets
- Opacity, Mouse transparency and Window level will be applied permanently for all widget instances of the same kind
To access Web-inspector, select a widget instance then press CMD-OPT-C. You can show widget instance client menu and Dock icon via CMD-OPT-Ctrl-C.
Custom CSS
Some examples.
Clipping for AlfaBank widget:
body { position: absolute; clip: rect(156px 210px 224px 15px); }
Rotate for Stocks:
body { -webkit-transform-origin: 100px 270px; -webkit-transform: rotate(15deg) translateY(30px); } <script> widget.resizeAndMoveTo(0,0,window.innerWidth+60,window.innerHeight+50); </script>
To query widgets you have to send simple JavaScript request via dwcomm and process an answer.
You can use dwcomm calls with almost any language.
./dwcomm com.apple.widget.dictionary "document.getElementById('searchField').value = 'slim'; searchFieldKeyPressed({'keyCode':13}); searchFieldSearched(null);" ./dwcomm com.apple.widget.dictionary "document.getElementById('definitionViewDiv').innerHTML" 1 ./dwcomm com.apple.widget.dictionary "document.getElementById('searchField').value = ''; searchFieldKeyPressed({'keyCode':27}); searchFieldSearched(null);"
All dwcomm calls must be present as single line.
You can find dwcomm inside DesktopWidget.app/Contents/Resources folder.
Usage: ./dwcomm <identifier|bundleID> <command> [<timeout>] Error codes: 1 - invalid args count 2 - empty widget identifier/bundleID or command 3 - can't convert identifier/bundleID or command to UTF-8 encoding 4 - empty widget identifier/bundleID or command (after args conv.) 5 - exit by timeout Timeout in seconds, 0 to disable waiting for an answer (and even disable requesting it at all). Default timeout is 0, so it means no wait and no answer is required.
Configure a Dropbox folder for sharing between your Mac computers, then select it as preset base – you can do it via DesktopWidget main menu, menu item named DesktopWidget / Set Storage Folder…
Note: you may want to copy your existing configuration from~/Library/Application Support/DesktopWidget.

Wom*n's involvement in the USU has gone from strength to strength since it began as a men's debating society in 1874.
We're proud to have elected our fifth consecutive wom*n identifying president, and over half of our student board directors are wom*n.
The Wom*n's Room, Level 1 Manning Building, provides a safe and comfortable space for wom*n to relax, eat and study - it also offers an area for breastfeeding, meetings and wom*n's events, as well as a library. We aim to follow recommendations from the Wom*n's Department of the National Union of Students to ensure wom*n's safety and comfort on campus.
The USU also takes part in and supports initiatives and events throughout the year including International Women's Day and Reclaim the Night.
We Are Women - 100 years, 100 stories
, a social history with contributions from our alumnae, students and staff past and present, was launched in 2014 to mark the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Sydney University Wom*n's Union (SUWU). The 'Visions' booklet was also launched which discussed how we can better include wom*n from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds as well as queer-identifying or questioning wom*n.
Please note: The alternative spelling of women as wom*n is used to symbolise wom*n striving to live without the oppression of patriarchy, and represents their strength independent of society's perception of the essential male. It aims to assert wom*n being wom*n in their own right and on their own terms.

Roar on the Shore® Named to 2017 AMA Gypsy Tour
ERIE – The Roar on the Shore® charitable motorcycle rally, Erie's official bike week set for July 12, 13, 14, 15 & 16, has been selected as one of 17 road rides to be featured in the 2017 American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) Gypsy Tour, a national series of premier road-riding events held across the country between March and November.

Originally, a Gypsy Tour was an overnight event with organized road rides and other activities of interest to motorcycle enthusiasts, where groups of riders would converge on a single destination. Gypsy Tours were staged in different parts of the country and typically occurred on the same weekend every year. The "National" Gypsy Tour referred to the whole series of these events.

Additional Decision Points
TMDL Governance
Decision: Treatment of TMDL issues in the Partnership
Option 1: Non-TMDL option – Retain the current governing body structure and membership of CBP, but take TMDL out of the "partnership" elements of the program; other water quality issues would be retained by CBP Partnership (monitoring, model, etc.)
Option 2: Separate Regulatory Aspects of TMDLDistinguish the nature of TMDLs as a regulatory requirement of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act, distinct and apart from section 117 of the CWA and have separate EPA/co-regulator discussions with bay jurisdictions as needed.. Ensure that the TMDL aspects of the program are addressed as one of the tools to achieve clean water goals under the Water Quality Goal Implementation Team.
Additional Decision Points
Decision: PSC Participation and Voting Eligibility
Option 1: Status quo – EC designees (member/participating partner; level of state secretaries, DDOE Director, CBC E.D., federal agencies). Multiple members from same delegations at the table, but only one vote allowed per delegation (e.g. EPA votes for all feds who are represented by either FLCD member or Regional Director). STAC, CAC and LGAC chairs invited, but may not vote.
Option 2: Retain current membership, however, members may only vote on issues according to what they have signed onto (i.e. if only signed on to water quality, they may only vote on water quality issues).
Option 3: Only signatory jurisdictions "at the table"/eligible to vote; other partners serve in an advisory capacity.
Additional Decision Points
Decision: PSC/MB Voting Privileges
Option 1: Only signatories get one vote each.
Option 1.a: Signatories get one vote each.If there is an option that allows for signatories to sign on to specific goals and outcomes, those signatories would be limited to voting only on issues related to the goals on which they signed.
Option 2: Delegation-style vote (for program-wide implications). 9 total votes, 1 per jurisdiction and CBC plus 1 vote for federal agencies. (EPA will always hold the 1 federal vote and should seek input from/through the FOD or FLC/D).

Wi-Fi Sense in Windows 10
Now that Windows 10 is available for upgrade, there is a new feature that you should know about prior to upgrading your system to Windows 10.
The new feature is called Wi-Fi Sense. Wi-Fi Sense allows you to share your Wi-Fi network credentials with friends and family without explicitly giving them the credentials. When enabled, Wi-Fi Sense copies your credentials into the Microsoft Cloud, where anyone on your Outlook, Skype or Facebook friends list can automatically connect with your Wi-Fi network when within range. It's an interesting feature but personally, I think the security concerns far outweigh the benefits.
It comes enabled by default, but It can be disabled. My concern is whether it saves your credentials prior to you explicitly disabling it. By that I mean, if you disable it after you upgrade, it appears that the credentials have already been stored by Microsoft and there is no indication that they will be deleted from their servers. Given the current security climate, I'd be a little uncomfortable with this.
If you tend to give your friends and family credentials (as opposed to maintaining a "guest" Wi-Fi account) liberally, then this could be a more secure method since you don't need to provide the actual password in unencrypted form.
The only way to securely opt out of this feature for your network is to rename it adding the string "_optout" to the SSID. This is really inconvenient and totally unnecessary. However, for now, this is the only method to insure that your Wi-Fi credentials are not compromised.
For more information, see the following articles:
- Brian Krebs – Windows 10 Shares Your Wi-Fi With Contacts
- Ars Technica – Wi-Fi Sense in Windows 10: Yes, it shares your passkeys; no, you shouldn't be scared
it will be interesting to see how this develops over the next few weeks. As always, unless the upgrade is needed, it's a good idea to delay upgrading to a major new release until things settle out. Also, a reminder to check to see if your favorite applications are supported by the Windows 10.

Samsung.com/register does not recognize my IMEI as a valid IMEI number and will not let me register. #2. Side loading apps. I have the wonder side loading machine or whatever it is called, but I guess I cannot fund the correct USB drivers since the device is never recognized. AT&T blocking non-market apps on the Tab is a little frustrating. Thanks.

'Saluki 4411' (Reg. No. CV-506, PI 665036), soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], tested under the name LS05-3229, was developed by Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. It was jointly released by Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, and the University of Missouri–Columbia in the spring of 2011. The main objective of the release of Saluki 4411 was to make available to producers and researchers a high-yielding cultivar with disease resistance to soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) and sudden death syndrome (SDS; caused by Fusarium virguliforme O' Donnell & T. Aoki, sp. nov.), the most important pest and disease of soybeans in the Midwest. Saluki 4411 is an F5–derived line developed from a cross between 'LS93-0375' and 'Ina' and advanced from the F2 generation by the modified single-seed descent method. In southern Illinois yield trials conducted over 4 yr (2007–2010) combining 20 tests, Saluki 4411 exhibited a yield of 3844 kg ha−1, 6.5% better than its parental line LS93-0375. It also yielded 1.4% more than 'LD00-3309' and 1.2% more than 'LD00-2817P' from 2008 to 2010 in both the Uniform Soybean Tests, Northern Region (Uniform Tests) and the Northern Regional SCN Test. Saluki 4411 has a relative maturity of 4.4 and was released in the spring of 2011 because of its competitive seed-yield performance and its high level of resistance to SCN HG Type 0 (Race 3) and to SDS.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.

FTC Extends Deadline for
Red Flag Rule Compliance
What the Extension Means to Dealers
Dealers now have six more months to get a Red Flag Rule program in place. On October 22, 2008, the FTC announced a forbearance on Red Flag Rule enforcement. The new deadline for compliance is May 1, 2009.
While this extension may have been (in part) in consideration for those who've yet to comply, AFIP would like to encourage dealers to continue efforts to get their programs in place as quickly as possible. As many dealers learned before the extension, procrastination may leave you stranded - and it is unlikely the FTC will issue another last-minute reprieve.
The F&I Manager's Guide to the Red Flag Rule
For those still in search of a cost-effective, easy-to-install solution, AFIP has released The F&I Manager's Guide to the Red Flag Rule. The Guide includes easily modifiable electronic templates that are structured enough lead you through the creation of your Red Flag program, but flexible enough to allow for the unique circumstances each dealership may face. The 121-page instruction manual provides complete, easy-to-follow instructions. No additional F&I forms are required. In addition to the F&I DeskCheck (a step-by-step checklist for F&I managers), the Guide comes with a large wall sign that shows identity thieves they won't be stealing a car at your dealership and alerts customers to the fact that they may be asked to provide additional documentation in accordance with the law (and your efforts to protect them from identity theft).
The F&I Manager's Guide to the Red Flag Rule, which has been in high demand since its introduction in late August, is an easy, complete solution to your Red Flag Rule compliance needs. It is designed to work in tandem with the Safeguards Rule Compliance Kit and a multitude of third-party vendors' identity verification and authentication solutions.
The F&I Manager's Guide to the Red Flag Rule is available from AFIP for $125 (plus shipping and handling and tax in Texas). Or purchase the Guide at reduced prices from Honda Financial Services, RouteOne, Michigan Automobile Dealers Association, Zurich, NJCAR, and other AFIP Industry Members and state association partners.
There won't be a second extension -
order now!

The number of British troops injured in Afghanistan who are applying for assistance dogs has contributed to a severe shortage of the trained animals.
The dogs are trained to help with a range of practical tasks both inside and outside the home, like switching on lights, fetching the phone, picking up items from the floor, unloading the washing machine, collecting the post, and flushing the toilet.
Cerebral Palsy sufferer Lorna Marsh, 34, was unable to do any of these things until Canine Partners matched her with Eli.
Eli – a cross between a Labrador and a Golden Retriever – carries out approximately 306 different tasks for Lorna, and his training has been specifically tailored to her needs.
Ms Marsh told Sky News: "He's my best friend. He's the door to independence, to a level I never thought I was going to reach. He means the absolute world to me because he means I can do more stuff on my own, which, as a disabled person, is gold dust.
"I never thought I'd be able to do half the stuff I'm doing and I never thought I'd be able to feel as close to Eli as I do.
"I think every disabled person who wants an assistance dog has the right to apply for one and see how far they get. It's just really sad that money gets in the way of somebody being that little bit more independent than they were before," she said.
Over the course of its life, each assistance dog costs ?20,000 to train and support but with 1.2 million wheelchair users in the UK, it's impossible to provide for everyone.
Those who are paired with a dog are not charged a penny, so the help does not depend on a client's financial ability to pay.
Canine Partners relies solely on donations from the public.
The charity's main training facility near Midhurst, West Sussex, is at full capacity with 25 dogs being schooled there at any one time, each on an 18-week course.
Jenny Moir, from the charity, said: "We've got as many trainers and probably as many dogs as we can train from here, but because the demand is increasing – not least because we place dogs with service people coming back from Afghanistan – we've decided to purchase new premises in Leicestershire which we are developing as we get money in."
A new premises is currently being developed as and when money comes in, at an estimated final cost of ?3m.

Global net traps 120 UK paedophiles
More than 120 people aged from 17 to 82 have been arrested in Britain as part of a massive global child abuse investigation.
All of Britain's 43 police forces were involved in Operation Rescue, one of the biggest inquiries ever mounted into paedophiles on the internet.
In Britain 240 suspects were identified which has led to 121 arrests and 33 convictions.
The probe, which has run for more than three years, saw 670 people targeted across the globe.
Investigators have identified and rescued 230 abused children, including 60 in the UK.
Details of the investigation were released after the Dutch owner of a website at the centre of the inquiry was jailed.
Linchpin Amir Ish-Hurwitz, 37, ran online forum boylover.net which had 70,000 members.
Through it paedophiles splintered off, setting up private links to share sick images and films of child abuse.
One was Lee Palmer, a 21-year-old from Cheshire who was jailed for six years in March 2010. He admitted abusing two boys aged nine and two and possessing more than 60,000 indecent images on his computer.
Details of the inquiry - and the latest arrest in Northamptonshire - were revealed at a press conference in The Hague, headquarters of Europol, which co-ordinated the police crackdown involving forces in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, America and the UK.

Suspend activities of credit reference agencies.
Operations of credit reference agencies (CRAs) should be suspended until there are laws to protect the rights and privacy of consumers. We had in 1999 written to Bank Negara, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs proposing the introduction of laws to protect consumers. We had also asked Bank Negara to direct the financial intuitions not to use the services of CRAs until such protection is available to consumers
Legislate credit reference agencies
Once again we urge the government to legislate credit reference agencies (CRAs) - companies that provide credit information on individual borrowers. We had in December 1999 asked that CRAs be licensed, controlled and regulated.
One of the disadvantage of non-regulation is that non-financial institutions are using CRAs as a means to collect their payments and in the process jeopardize the individual's loan application.
Call for a consumer credit act
It is confusing to have different laws dealing with different types of consumer credit. Depending on the type of credit facility, it could be under the Pawnbrokers Act, or the Money Lending Act or the Banking and Financial Institutions Act or even the Hire-Purchase Act.
Pay only RM250 for lost or stolen card transactions
Cardholders have the right to know that whenever their lost or stolen credit cards are used by others they should (in most cases) not have to pay more than RM250. Yet oftentimes they end up paying much more.
This is because Bank Negara has not informed cardholders that they do not have to pay more than RM250 for fraudulent transactions carried out using their lost or stolen cards, when they had not acted fraudulently and had informed the banks about the lost or stolen cards as soon as possible.
Banks overcharge by ignoring credit card guideline
This Guideline limits the liability of a cardholder to RM250 for unauthorised use of lost or stolen cards under certain conditions.

San Francisco Opera has announced their productions for this season and next including Stephen King's Dolores Claiborne.
If that last one were not enough to set the jaws dropping, the trippy, ripped-from-the-lit programming will continue into the following season, when a production of Stephen King's "Dolores Claiborne," starring power mezzo-soprano Dolora Zajick, will have its world premiere.
And projecting further still into the next new season, mezzo-soprano Zajick, Gockley said, is tailor-made for "Dolores Claiborne," the role that earned Kathy Bates an Oscar nomination for the 1995 film made from the Stephen King thriller.
"It's a movie of heavy passions and tragedy and survival, and we thought it had operatic qualities," Gockley said "And doing it for the indomitable Dolora Zajick made sense."
The opera, composed by Tobias Picker and well-known librettist J.D. McClatchy, will open Sept. 15, 2013.
Other operas announced are Moby Dick, Mary Magdalene and The Secret Garden.

City at Euro 96: 20 years on...
EURO 96: Football's coming home...
It's 20 years to the day since football came home and that one long, hot summer when England believed…
On June 8 1996, the Three Lions met Switzerland in the tournament opener at Wembley with a whole host of players who would go on to represent City, either as players or as coaches, in their future careers.
To mark this special 20th anniversary, let's take a look at the ten players at those European Championships with MCFC links…
David Seaman
Before Joe Hart, there was David Seaman.
The moustachioed stopper was England's first-choice 'keeper for more than a decade between the nineties and the early noughties.
He enjoyed a memorable Euro 96 tournament, saving a penalty from Gary McAllister in the win over Scotland in England's second match.
Seaman rounded off his glorious club career at City where he retired in January 2004 due to a long-standing shoulder injury.
Stuart Pearce
One of the enduring images of Euro 96 was Pearce's euphoric celebration after he scored his penalty against Spain in the quarter-final shootout.
That spot-kick exorcised his Italia 90 demons where "Psycho" missed one of the vital penalties against Germany in the World Cup semi-final.
Pearce was another who ended his career at City, captaining Kevin Keegan's side to promotion from the Championship in 2002.
He would go on to manage City between 2005 and 2007.
David Platt
Platt was arguably England's most important player in the early 90s, scoring 27 goals in 62 games for his country.
Although he was only used sparingly in Euro 96, mostly coming on as a substitute, his experience was said to be important in helping the younger players through the competition.
Platt never played for City in his 16-year playing career but he would serve as a member of Roberto Mancini's coaching staff between 2010 and 2013.
Big Vin on the Beeb
Steve Howey
Howey never made it off the bench in the tournament and was never called up to the England squad again after Euro 96.
However, he did win four caps before then, making his debut against Belgium in November 1994.
The Geordie defender joined newly-promoted City in 2000 and made more than 90 league appearances for the Blues over three years.
His most famous moment came in the Manchester derby best-remembered for Roy Keane's horror tackle on Alfe Inge Haaland where Howey scored the equaliser in a 1-1 draw.
Tim Flowers
Another man who was an unused substitute throughout Euro 96, Tim Flowers was one of the Premier League's finest goalkeepers in the early-mid 90s, winning the title with Blackburn in 1993/94.
Flowers went on loan to City late in his playing career and briefly served as a goalkeeper coach after his retirement.
Steve McManaman
Yet another player at Euro 96 who finished off his playing career at the Etihad Stadium, Steve McManaman won it all at Real Madrid before joining City for two seasons in the mid-noughties.
The curly-haired winger was named in the official Euro 96 Team of the Tournament after a series of brilliant performances which earned the praise of Pele.
Robbie Fowler
It's a telling sign of the rich striking options at England's disposal in the nineties that Robbie Fowler, one of the most clinical English strikers of his generation, only made 26 appearances for his country.
Alan Shearer and Teddy Sheringham were ahead of Robbie in the queue for starting berths for much of the "Toxteth Terror's" international career.
Fowler made two substitute appearances in the tournament against the Netherlands in the 4-1 win and the penalty shootout victory over Spain in the quarters.
He played for City for three years, scoring 20 league goals between 2003 and 2006.
Colin Hendry
Scotland were in England's group at the competition and they had a man who represented City in the late eighties and early nineties at the heart of their back four.
Only a late consolation goal from Patrick Kluivert in the Netherlands' 4-1 defeat to England prevented the Scots from qualifying from Group A.
Andrei Kanchelskis
Russian winger Andrei Kanchelskis missed World Cup '94 after leading a player boycott against the coach but he was in the squad for Euro 96 at the age of 27.
Kanchelskis, who spent time at City on loan in the nineties, won 59 caps for his country, scoring seven goals – however, Russia were knocked out in the group stages, finishing bottom of a Group C containing Germany, Czech Republic and Italy.
Peter Schmeichel
Holders Denmark narrowly missed out on the quarter-finals of Euro 96 after finishing third in Group D, behind Portugal and Croatia.
Schmeichel, yet another player to hang up his boots at City, was chipped by Davor Suker at Hillsborough in what would prove to be one of the iconic moments of the tournament in the Danes' 3-0 loss.

Findings from cost-benefit evaluations have suggested that the cost of substance abuse treatment is covered by the economic benefits to society. In this research we measure the economic impact of substance abuse treatment in a rural mountain state. Using a novel approach, cost data were gathered from four disparate state administrative databases, which were selected and matched to form one complete data set. A cost-benefit analysis was used to examine the aggregate economic impact of substance abuse treatment. The conservative post treatment outcome of the combined costs revealed a range or $4.12 to $3.98 million dollar overall offset, a difference that resulted in 20 to 16 percent savings above the fixed treatment cost. Policy implications are discussed.

The liberal mainstream media have proven time and time again that they are selective in their news coverage, pushing their agendas through stories that better reflect them. It's time we start calling them out on it!
ABC is the latest news outlet to be embroiled in controversy for its coverage of President Trump. As many have (or have not) learned recently, Obama's national security adviser, Susan Rice, requested that members of the incoming Trump transition team be unmasked in reports of gathered intelligence, which were later leaked to the press.
Despite this massive news story, ABC has made no mention of the Rice scandal on its website's homepage, via the Gateway Pundit. The story does not fit ABC's liberal agenda, so in their mind it does not exist.
It was also revealed that the House Intelligence Committee chairman, Devin Nunes, knew that Rice had been the one to unmask the Trump officials as well as the president himself. No logical reason beyond the political purpose of embarrassing the current administration has been identified.
Liberal outlets do not seem to care about national security and the stories that are immediately relevant to it — they simply want to push their own agendas.
This is the biggest news story of this year so far and one of the most important in decades — U.S. officials used spying techniques meant for protecting Americans from terrorists to spy on political opponents. That's why it's so obvious ABC actively decided not to report on it.
While many liberal mainstream media outlets had pathetic coverage of this story, ABC had non-existent coverage of it.
In addition to not being on its homepage, this scandal did not even break ABC's politics page where it most certainly should have been.
This is why so many Democrats are turning away from the Democrat Party — it has gone too far down the liberal rabbit hole, using the mainstream media to promote its now extreme views. The liberal media have constantly only reported news that paints Democrats in a good light, and they fail to properly report on other stories.
News is supposed to be objective and inform people what is going on in this country and the world; it is supposed to remain unbiased. Fake news was a massive issue during the recent election, and it looks like it will be right into the near future.
It will be interesting to see if liberal media outlets like ABC continue with this approach into the distant future. If they fail to turn away from actual news, they could end up out of business in a couple of years and spiral away into obscurity.

A private house completed for and in collaboration with the Architect Julian Kinal.
Julian Kinal
The house is embedded into the hillside and constructed in two sections within a reinforced concrete retaining wall.
The sections are separated by a central external staircase – also concrete. The design looked at a number of prefabricated house build options including CLT but settled on a traditional timber construction. A steel frame was used to create the open plan kitchen and living room areas, a fully glazed front facade and large rooflights.
In costal Norway the house resists large wind and snow loadings.

Sweet Start CHALLENGE: Romans day 5 + PPA336 Sketch
Sweet Start is a unique blend of spiritual and creative inspiration, and is an outpouring of my desire to share generously with my readers. If Bible study isn't really your thing, you're welcome to skip straight to the creativity! If you're hanging around for the study, here's a helpful hint: hovering your mouse over the verse reference links will activate a pop-up box with the text of the reference. Easy peasy!
Romans, day 5
Before moving on in the book of Romans, I think it's really important to set a foundation of understanding who Jesus is in terms of how Paul describes him in Romans 1:1-4. In previous days, I've dug into what it means that Jesus is the Son of David and Son of man, leading into a discussion of the title Son of God. Today, I'm going to set up the stage for who Jesus is as our Lord. What exactly does that mean? Let's work through this together! Just like in previous days, there's a lot of depth to who Jesus is that is worth our time exploring.
Let us stoop: Here in the New Testament, which was written primarily in Greek, the English word "Lord" is translated from the Greek transliteration, "kyrios." This word has a sense of a master, as in someone who has possession or ownership of someone or something. Furthermore, it is a term of reverence and respect, just like you or I might call someone "sir," keeping the sense that the person being addressed is of a higher position than oneself.
This is a somewhat ridiculous example, but my husband is part of an organization called the "Chiefs," and they have "Chiefs parties" that are probably similar to a frat party (and yes, we're talking about grown men. Don't get me started…) So, in response, the wives have Princess parties, complete with an Old Great Princess (OGP, for short) who wears a massive Native American headdress to the Princess naming ceremony. You get your princess name at the second party you attend, and until you are named, you are merely a "girl," not a full-fledged Princess. At the ceremony, the girls must never stand so their head is higher than the OGP's head, which means that for most of the night, the girls walk around in a stooped position. It's really hilarious to see grown women stoop-walking. But, my point is this: when you recognize that someone is in total authority over you, it's proper to stoop! In an exceedingly more substantial way, Jesus is Lord over all. By Him all things were made (Colossians 1:16), so therefore it is proper that all things are surrendered to His sovereign authority. That is what it means to fear the Lord– not to be afraid of Him, but to respect His authority over everything! Although I would discourage stoop-walking for the sake of your spine, spend some time thinking about what a stooped heart looks like. How should we act as Christians, as people whose hearts are bowed down to the Lord Jesus?
The Lord is God: The Bible tells us that there are many who are called "Lord" or "god" (1 Corinthians 8:5, Psalms 82:6-7), but there is only one true God, the Lord God (Jeremiah 10:10). We are commanded to "love the Lord your God and to serve Him with all your heart and soul." (Deuteronomy 11:13) "LORD" in Deuteronomy 11 is the Hebrew tetragrammaton YHWH, sometimes written as Yahweh or Jehovah. The name YHWH was/is so holy to our Jewish friends that they stopped pronouncing it altogether, replacing it instead with the word Adonai (another word for "Lord," but not the most holy name of Almighty God, the great name I AM revealed to Moses in Exodus 3:14). We find YHWH in verses such as Isaiah 45:5 (NASB), "I am the LORD and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God." If you have a King James Version of the Bible, anywhere you see the word LORD written in capital letters, you can be sure that it is translated from YHWH.
So, is there a connection between the Lord God of Deuteronomy– the Lord who is the only God according to Isaiah– and Jesus who is the Lord? YES! Let's look at Isaiah 40:3 together. "A voice cries, 'In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD; make straight in the desert a highway for our God." (ESV) In John 1:23, John the Baptist tells the men questioning him about his identity that he is the voice crying in the wilderness to prepare the way of the Lord. And who was John preparing the way for? Jesus! (John 1:30-31) 1 Timothy 3:16 tells us, "God was manifest in the flesh." John 1 says that the Word, who was with God and was God, became flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:1, 14). Jesus is most assuredly the LORD, not just someone who is called "Lord" out of reverence.
Is Jesus exclusively the Lord? You might be asking yourself, "well if Jesus is the Lord (the Lord who is God), what about the Father and the Holy Spirit?" This is an important step in understanding the nature of God. When Jesus prays to the Father, He begins, "O Father, Lord of heaven and earth…" (Matthew 11:25) Clearly, according to Jesus' own profession, the Father is also the Lord. Likewise, 2 Corinthians 3:17 explicitly says, "the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." (ESV) Thus, the Lord God is most fully known in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
But, there is a little bit of a catch here: it is impossible for us to come to know (come into a relationship or become one with) the Father or the Holy Spirit without first accepting Jesus as Lord, now that God has been revealed through the person of Jesus. It brings glory to the Father that every knee should bow to Jesus (Philippians 2:9-11), who has been declared King of kings and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:16). Surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus is what aligns us in proper submission to the will of the Father and the regenerative work of the Holy Spirit, who makes us a new creation from the inside out. While Jesus is not exclusively the Lord apart from the Father or the Spirit, to us "there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist." (1 Corinthians 8:6) Bowing to King Jesus has the effect of putting us in a place of surrender to the Lord God, in full. Try to bow first to the Father or request the work of the Spirit by passing over the Lord of lords, and miss the mark completely. It matters that Jesus is the Lord.
While today's study was a little longer than I typically write, I hope it helps you understand the importance of accepting Jesus as the Lord. We will return to this idea in Romans 10, which might take awhile at the pace I study, but I pray the foundation is firmly in place to help us more fully grasp the message of Romans. Praise God for revealing His nature in Jesus! Now let's get to some stamping!
Crazy About You #1
Ready for a new stamp set challenge? Here we go! My last set of projects featured the free Sale-a-bration stamp set You Brighten My Day, but today I'm kicking off a new round of projects featuring the stamp set Crazy About You from the new Occasions Catalog. My favorite thing about this set? It's got tons of sentiments to mix and match, but also three adorable floral-inspired images that can be used in so many ways. I can't wait to start showing off some of the fun techniques I've used while working with this set.
My card was inspired by the Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge, PPA236. Pals Paper Arts is organized by demonstrators in Mary Fish's group, the Stampin' Pretty Pals. I am directly under Mary's leadership, which means anyone who joins my team also has all the perks of being a Pal! We have the most amazing support group. If you haven't tried out all the benefits of being a part of my demonstrator team and the Pals group, you don't know what you're missing! Product discounts, rewards and freebies, recognition, lots of new stamping friends… I could go on and on. (Don't forget that there are extra perks right now for purchasing a starter kit! Your choice of a free Occasions Catalog kit or 2 free Sale-a-bration products. Woohoo!) I'm allowed to get excited about free stuff, right?? For now, here is the PPA236 sketch:
The technique I used on today's card is called "kissing." Seasonally appropriate, right? Valentines Day is right around the corner, so I'd say it is (wink wink). Stay tuned for a webinar recording that shows you how I did the kissing technique on this card, along with some other projects you could make using this set and technique.
The color combo Melon Mambo, Pool Party, Crumb Cake, and So Saffron is so bright and happy, don't you think? I inked the layered flower image with Pool Party Ink and "kissed" it onto my Dictionary background stamp that had been inked with Crumb Cake before stamping onto the card front. I really love the look of text layered with floral images. It's a little hard to see the "kissed" image in the big photo, so here's a closeup! You'll also notice the tone-on-tone Dictionary stamp as a backdrop for the sentiment words, and the delicate crinkles of the Crumb Cake seam binding ribbon. To make the seam binding ribbon textured with wrinkles, simply spritz with water and crumple up in your hand. When it dries, it will hold the texture! I folded mine for a pleated look in addition to the wrinkles.
Would you like to see more of my projects using this stamp set? Be sure to subscribe to my blog to get a weekly post digest sent to your email so you don't miss a single one! When I have more posts up for this challenge round, you'll be able to access all the posts featuring Crazy About You by clicking this link.
Many Blessings & Happy Stamping,

Now that we've seen even more of it, the exclusively made Xbox game, Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict, is one of those games that defies strict categorization. It's a first- and third-person shooter born from the Unreal PC series, so it comes from a first-person shooter background. But it's not by any means a traditional FPS.
Epic has experimented for the last year with the limits of the gameplay mechanics and slowly evolved the first-person shooting elements into a hybrid melee combat shooter. They've added a distinct close-combat fighing system that's energetic, deadly, simple to learn, but as deep as any great fighting game. Epic has undoubtedly turned it into something else entirely, something that already looks special. That means the only thing a game site like ours can do is to throw this multiple genre title into the action category and pray. Or think up a new category -- anyone for "multiple-person shooter-fighter?" No? didn't think so.
In any case, Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict still looks, sounds and feels like an Unreal game, but it plays like something genuinely new -- a first-person shooter that plays with equal parts shooting and melee fighting. What makes it even harder to describe is the insanely springy jumping that takes place. The double and triple jumps join the wall jumps to make this game as interesting as PowerStone when it first came out.
Now that Midway has picked up the game from Microsoft, we're getting better, deeper looks at it, plus a lot more access to write features and show screens, movies, and more. On that topic, as part of a new ongoing series, we're introducing "Unreal Championship 2: The Contestants," an ongoing biography series highlighting classic and new Unreal characters with background details, screen and movies.
Age: 39
Birthplace: Udan Keeble Community Creche
Default Weapons: Enforcers, Nakhti Swords
Adrenaline: Repulse, Nimble, Flash, Speed, Blade Burst.
Biography: Unlike most Juggernauts in the tournament, Arclite is neither a criminal nor a killer by nature. Unable to find gainful employment elsewhere, his presence in the tournaments is simply a by-product of his genetic makeup. Watch your step around him - he's not happy to be here. Watch for his disorienting concussion attack, which leaves opponents helpless for his massive fists.
Check out the other contestants here.
