General Electric, among others, make some very good exterior electrical sealers that will not cause metal to corrode and will seal out the rigors of nature. RTV stands for Room Temperature Vulcanizing. It is a silicone rubber and works well. If the coax leading to the antenna wasn't replaced when you "fixed" the corroded parts, you may want to do so. Coax does break down over time. Some faster than others. Some grades of coax are better than others at keeping moisture out. If moisture got into the connector at the end, you may have a corrosion problem through the coax. Also, "Coax Sealer" does a good job of slowing water infiltration into the coax/connector end. 73 de KA2GSL |

ill prob add some more pics but i recently installed angel eyes and i think it looks cool. i think im gonan get rid of the turn signals being on all the time http://i24.tinypic.com/1rce9x.jpg |
looks just like mine, and good idea on the corners only flashing- i've gotta do that myself. should be able to do it with just a piece of duct tape on one of the terminals. i'll be slapping on some eyebrows soon to cover the wires at the top and to make it look just a lil meaner
i used to have eyebrows, but honestly i really dont like them anymore! they look soooo tacky. and honestly the only person that can see the wires is you, cause bmw owners are anal :) dont put on those stupid eyebrows, leave it clean!
i also got a riger lip with splitters coming on this week, so it shud look nice |
im a very big fan of angeleyes, nice work!
Lets see some side pics.
those will be up on friday, im installing the lip that day :)
the lip and splitters will make a big difference too! |
Ooooh a bedroom. *love*
Edit: Bastard, you deleted it. lol |
looks good, you need to paint that front bumper though :)
man, if only that fit on my car.... without me sitting ON the ground..! |
chances of me painting the bumper are 0%, too much hassle and a lil contrast never hurt anyone
where did u get the headlights, i wanna get myself a set too!!
jay |
-Paint your front bumper (mould the lip on?)
-clear corners -M mirrors -blacked out kidneys and you're done. Looks great bro. |

Sounds GREAT, jones! It's a different take on Pennsylvania's scrapple which is exclusively pork and uses cornmeal instead of oats. My thanks and my five, my friend.

Jason Kottke is an A-list blogger who recently quit his day job to pursue blogging full time. His revenue model of choice is the Pay Pal tip jar. Given the enormous traffic to his site, it may work.
According to Wired, Kottke is avoiding the ad-based revenue model because, as a one-man operation, there's no easy way to neatly separate editorial and advertising.
"Advertising introduces a third party into the relationship between me and my readers," Kottke said. "I don't want to be doing things on my site that are geared more to advertisers than to readers."
To me, this purist mentality seems misplaced, if not a tad crazy. Of course, it's perfectly fine if one can afford it. I guess time will tell if Jason can indeed afford to turn his back on this most obvious (and in most cases, benign) source of blog revenue.

This news story has been circulating around the internet for a few hours now, and it makes for interesting reading. We should thank Zack O'Malley Greenburg from Forbes for researching this Top 10 World's Highest Paid DJ's list. What do you all think of it? You can read the full article HERE. Whatever you do, don't tell DJ Sneak, he'll go crazy over Twitter about this...
Tiesto recently made a big move from Privilege to Pacha Mondays, no doubt receiving a lovely pay packet to boot. The guy has made big steps in the producing world though, outside of dance music too. But he is of course most widely known for his trance days, of which there are few of now, which is a shame. Pulls in 18,059,800€ for his efforts.
Has managed to single-handedly destroy 'dubstep', OR redefine it for the better. You decide, but we know which side of the fence we stand on. Music aside he is sporting what is widely recognised as the worst haircut in the history of man, something he copied off all the Ibiza workers last year. SO last year mate. Anyway, he's been paid 12,310,500€.
Swedish House Mafia
Grab the tissues SHM fans, they are on their last tour of shows as a threesome (keep it clean folks), so you can catch them on Wednesdays at Ushuaïa, although be sure to check the lineups as they aren't all always playing the same dates. They bring in a not too shabby 11,491,200€ between the three of them, which isn't showing off too much.
David Guetta
One of the most recognisable faces in Ibiza, and the world, in the dance/pop music world at least. You either adore him or detest all he stands for with all the collaborations he does, regardless he is considered a gentleman. So it's all good. Quite surprising he 'only' gets 11,080,800€ really, considering his commercial success as a DJ and the F**k Me I'm Famous brand. Still, he's probably not struggling to put food on the table is he?
Steve Aoki
Stevie is the DJ equivalent of a rockstar. The two things most know about him are that he likes to stage dive, and his rider is utterly ridiculous. Although now I think about it, I would also refuse to play a set without my compulsory rubber dingie and 6 spare pairs of underwear. Preparing for every eventuality is the key to success here it seems - even if that is a flash flood or pooing yourself mid-set. He has taken 9,849,600€ in a year for all this, plus the profits from the sale of all his dingie's on eBay.
The Mau5 is alive, kicking, and filthy rich! Often playing with an undoubtedly impressive stage show with his now famous LED helmet, Cream had the pelasure of seeing his performance a the start of the season in Amnesia, whilst you can also catch him at Ushuaïa this season too. He gets a whopping 9,442,650€ to spend on cheese though, which must be nice for him.
DJ Pauly D
This is what every DJ aspires to be - warming up for a Britney Spears concert and then having her rub her body all over him. No amunt of scrubbing in the shower is going to get rid of that, mate. Fair play though for turning a comical (but admitedly entertaining...) career in reality TV, essentially getting drunk and having sex, in to a lucrative DJ career. A guido's never had so much money to spend GTL'ing - 9,029,900€! Yeahhhh buddy!
I know nothing about this guy. Aren't there various other Kaskade and Cascade's in the world too? Anyway, word on the street is that America thinks he's great, so great in fact that some people think it's justified to give him 8,209,000€ each year. Does anyone know if that's good value for money or not?
Big time DJ, producing some hugely popular tracks, and performing the world over. But really, most well known for being the DJ that used to sleep with Paris Hilton. So, maybe, perhaps, we can blame him for her surges into the world of DJ'ing? Despite not having an afro, dissapointingly, he has earnt 7,389,900€ in the last 12 months.
Created the monster track 'levels', then played it backwards and made loads more money again... people can't deny he's business savy, that's for sure. Or sneeky, whichever. He's currently bossing his way through some Sunday parties at Ushuaïa and has a very healthy bank balance, boosted by around 5,747,700€ in 12 months.

This review is from: HP FQ480AA#ABA Black 103 Normal Keys 16 Function Keys 2.4GHz Wireless Standard Elite Keyboard
Pros: I love the sleek, low profile design. It just looks and feels so modern / technological.
The keys press so comfortably.
The wireless range is good. The keyboard layout is very standard.
Cons: Not the absolute best for gaming.
No lights for caps lock, num lock, etc.
Other Thoughts: Tried it out in best buy before I bought it. I looked extensively for other low profile keyboards but could not find a better one for me.

Pros: Dead silent.
Meets all your needs including powering the beast that is my geforce gtx 460.
Modular interface is well designed.
Cons: None I've found.
Other Thoughts: For the price and quality I could not choose anything else.
READ FULL REVIEWThis review is from: Intel Core i7-870 Lynnfield Quad-Core 2.93GHz LGA 1156 95W BX80605I7870 Processor
Pros: In terms of benchmarks it is about on par with the i7 930. But the main advantage of this over the i7 900 series is that it uses less power (95W) and runs cooler.
This was the perfect choice for my HTPC which needed socket LGA 1156. I am also very pleased with the speeds I am getting.
Cons: None so far
Other Thoughts: I would recommend this over the i7 900's.

Limited to 600 copies in a lovely tri-gatefold sleeve! Quaternity is primarily acoustic in format, with an array of classical percussion and strings creating an entirely new sound for the band. Unlike its predecessors Restored to One and Ye Are Gods, Quaternity offers a majority of original material with inspiration from the Process found primarily in the lyrics. One exception is the completely unpublished "Lucifer," shared with the band over the telephone via former Processian Anthony D'Andrea, who had contacted the band complaining that they were not "getting the hymns right." Thanks to Mr. D'Andrea, whose rendition can be heard in part at the top of the track. Quaternity once again features Jamie Myers on vocals and Dave "Xtian" Nuss on percussion. Special guests on the album include Daron Beck of Pinkish Black accompanying Jamie on vocals, Kevin Hufnagel of Gorguts on guitar, Mat McNerney and Marja Konttinen of Hexvessel reciting sacred texts, liturgical chanting by Jessika Kinney (Sunn 0))), Wolves in the Throne Room), bass from Colin Marston of Behold… The Arctopus, and organ from "Nameless Void" of Negative Plane.

Verdicts like this do not make America safer or more secure
MS has statutory caps on general and punitive damages that will require the Judge in this case to significantly remit this jury verdict. At the end of the day, the dollar value will be well less than $5 million.
"as hip as Vanilla Ice"
I thought I was the only one who remembered Vanilla Ice! Lady Gaga is ALMOST as good as Vanilla Ice.
The asbestos was falling in the air like snow . . . if I had a quarter for every time I heard that line I'd be a very rich man
That's about the same amount of money that the families of the 3,000+ deaths of Union Carbide (now Dow Chemicals)'s Bhopal disaster got together. Methinks something's askew here.
must be the same jury that was in the movie, Mystery Alaska
If the insurers and corporate defendants had reconciled their financial differences in the early 2000s they could have secured passage of a no-fault administrative compensation scheme that would have removed all asbestos-related injury claims from the court going forward. Asbestos litigation today continues because defendants were unwilling over decades to pay for the actual harm they imposed on workers and family and because plaintiff lawyers learned they could make fortunes by litigating cases that long ago should have been transferred out of the tort system to a fair and efficient administrative system. (Of course, that assumes our political process would have allowed such a system to be created and maintained, which is far from obvious.)
Tort Reform! That is what is needed here. Too much money awarded to the too few. The award should have been a good wage for all of the years of suffering, times two for pain and suffering, and payable to his wife until she dies as well. Any dependant adults should also be included until they die. This would be like a mentally handicapped child, or something of that nature. Other than that, No. They don't want to talk about all the auto and truck mechanics who used to blow out brakes, with an air hose, and breathe the dust. They would have a lot more claims on their hands then.
Hey all you officers, white-coller employees and denzines of corporate America... get with it and provide up front for the workplace health and safety of the workers.. even if you have to educate the workers re the hazards on the job, etc. Asbestos decisions and awards have been with us for more than two decades and for any laggard corporate employers, triple damages should be automatically imposed.. and funds go to supporting the jusiciary and public defenders.
Union Carbide and Chevron should have settled this case before it went to the jury. Period. Maybe their corporate liability carrier told them to fight this case out, that the jury award wouldn't be too high in conservative Mississippi. Big mistake.
I once saw a photograph of some construction site worker opening a bag of asbestos cement mix or something with a lit cigarette dangling out of his mouth: classic. Apparently the combo of cigarettes and asbestos is more lethal than either product alone.
Another example of the U.S. becoming less competitive with these outlandish awards....no doubt support for pain and suffering but not wholesale thievery
I need one case like this and me gone. No more CLE, mercurical judges, cussing clients, bar beefs, bounced checks, uncivilied, client poacher colleagues, hustling and prostituting my mind to the highest bidder. No more child abusers, drunk drivers who want to get off who blew a .26 and clients who treat me like their buying a set of Radial Tires at Sears......I'm not greedy. Just one case like this.
I hope the plaintiff's lawyers get a nice piece of that $322 million!
What is the going contingency fee these days on these types of PI cases?
Silly verdict that will not stand on appeal, or even a motion for reconsideration. As someone noted above, the state of Mississippi has statutory limits on the amounts of general and punitive damages permitted in tort cases. There is no need for tort reform in this instance; Mississippi law already limits the damages than can be awarded. What appears to have happened here is the jury ignored the trial court's jury instructions. At the least, the judge should (and probably will) reduce the award to comply with the MIssissippi statute. If he doesn't do that, then the judge has given the defendants no choice but to appeal and I've no doubt that they will given the size of the award as it currently stands. The Mississippi Supreme Court will almost certainly overturn the damages award. Bottom line: the plaintiff will not be collecting a massive award.
How long has it been since asbestos was known to cause severe physical problems and death? Yet these companies continue operating with impunity, thanks in large part to so-called 'tort reform,' which benefits noone but law-breaking companies, who are considered 'people' by our judicial in every respect but one: responsibility. I hope this reward stands, because with health costs skyrocketing every day, this poor man will burn through it long before his life is over. Shame on Union Carbide and Chevron Phillips. However, thanks to our corporatist Supreme Court, I am sure he will never see a cent.
The millions of $ don't make that man healthy again...
I agree with someone above that said things like these don't make the world safer.
A very silly verdict

James Mitchell
Also known as: Jimmy Mitchell
Born: February 29, 1920
Sacramento, California
Died: January 22, 2010
Los Angeles, California
Obituary: Horton took him to New York to found a new company, but after the venture failed, he successfully auditioned for a role in the Agnes de Mille-choreographed musical Bloomer Girl. Mr. Mitchell and de Mille would work together for 25 years on a variety of projects. De Mille's biographer, Carol Easton, describes him as the "quintessential male de Mille dancer" and, in one of her autobiographical volumes, de Mille herself said of Mitchell that he had "probably the strongest arms in the business, and the adagio style developed by him and his partners has become since a valued addition to ballet vocabulary."
Other Broadway projects with de Mille included Brigadoon (for which he won a Theatre World Award) and Paint Your Wagon. He was in 1945's Billion Dollar Baby, which was choreographed by Jerome Robbins and Carnival, choreographed by Gower Champion. He also acted in national tours of The King and I, Funny Girl, and The Threepenny Opera.
Mr. Mitchell was the winner of the Donaldson Award for Best Male Dancer of the Year in 1947 for his Harry Beaton in Brigadoon; and was nominated in the same category for Billion Dollar Baby and Paint Your Wagon. He had late Broadway credit in 1974, playing Williams Desmond Taylor in Mack & Mabel. His most notable film roles were Paul Byrd, the (ironically) largely non-dancing choreographer character who competes with Fred Astaire for the affections of Cyd Charisse in "The Band Wagon," and he was Curly in the dream sequence of "Oklahoma!" in 1955.
Much of his prowess as a dance was probably lost on the soap fans who watched him for decades as a scheming tycoon on "All My Children." He acted on the show from 1979 to 2009. He was nominated for Daytime Emmy Awards in 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985 and 1989. He never won.
Despite having given up dancing for the small screen, he never lost his interest in the stage. "When I go to the theatre to watch dance, my muscles twitch," he once said. "I can't help but respond physically to music and the choreography. It simply moves me. There's no doubt that the dancer is still present inside."

Begin at the Gold Creek Trailhead and walk counterclockwise around the Gold Creek Pond Trail following the signs to the junction with Gold Creek Trail, approximately a fourth mile. Gold Creek Trail follows a road through private property over a mile before entering the national forest and becoming a trail. At milepost 2.5 enter Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Wander up the Gold Creek Valley through deep forest, open talus and cross several large avalanche tracks with occasional glimpses of Gold Creek.
An especially large avalanche in 2007-2008 cut a large swath through the trees below Alta Mountain, crossed Gold Creek and knocked down trees on the opposite side of the valley. Several fords require wading and crossing Gold Creek at milepost 4.3, but may not be safe during high water. You'll find a few good campsites along the creek.
At about five miles the maintained trail ends at a junction. Beyond this point the trails are overgrown and difficult to follow. The left fork climbs one steep mile through vine maple, alder and talus (rockslide) to Alaska Lake at 4,230 feet. The right fork proceeds 1.75 miles up the main valley, climbing through avalanche greenery and forest, reaching the base of Alaska Mountain. A steep, hazardous boot path on a staircase of rocks and roots climbs to Joe Lake at 4,624 feet.
From North Bend, WA take I-90 east for about 24 miles to the Hyak exit #54. Take this exit and go left (north) and then turn right on Forest Service Road #4832 that parallels the north side of the freeway. Drive 1.0 mile, turn left on Gold Creek road #142 and turn left in 0.3 mile into the Gold Creek Pond parking lot.

Historical Materialism, Second North American Conference January 14-16 2010, New York City Opening Plenary Thursday January 14th, 7pm Graduate Center City University of New York 365 5th Avenue New York, NY REGISTRATION NOW OPEN! www.hm2010nyc.org Please join us for the second North American Historical Materialism Conference, beginning the evening of January 14th, 2010. Founded in 1997, the quarterly Historical Materialism (HM) journal is among the foremost publications of critical Marxist theory in the world, known for both its breadth as well as its intellectual rigor. Following upon successful conferences in London and Toronto, the New York City conference – the first ever in the US – will provide a lively space for scholars and activists to critically engage theoretical, historical, and practical issues of crucial importance to the movement for a world beyond capitalism. The ongoing economic crisis continues to disrupt political and business establishments across the planet and inflict suffering upon millions in the form of mass unemployment and food shortages. Despite the popular expectations raised by a new presidency, U.S. imperial ambitions appear locked in place. The existential threat of climate change looms. Economic, political, military and ecological crises intersect as they intensify, making the world a much more dangerous place— but also one in which the space for theory and practice aimed at challenging capitalism, and exploring systemic alternatives, has grown. In organizing the first US Historical Materialism conference we hope to open a space for critical, rigorous and boundary-pushing theory, to explore and provoke our understanding of capital and anti-capitalist alternatives with a critical eye to the traditions of the past, while confronting the crises and struggles unfolding around us. Panels Include: The Future of the Radical Left / Theories of the Developmentalist State / Witch-Hunting and Enclosures / Philosophy of Finance / Race and Labor / The Politics of Oil / Communism and Catastrophe / Women, Work and Violence / Theories of Exploitation / Restructuring in Turkey / Ecology and Crisis / The Problem of Organization / Commons and Subjectivity / Capitalism, Slavery and the Civil War / Communization / Sexuality and Marriage / Fetishism and the Value Form / Marx's Theory of Money / Post-Operaïsmo / Crisis Theory… Confirmed speakers: Anna M.

Two London meetings with John Holloway, 24th & 26th October: ANARCHIST BOOKFAIR/MUTE MAGAZINE DISCUSSION, 4-6pm, Saturday 24th October, London Capitalism's Present Crisis - How Will It End? The capitalist system is facing years of crisis and social instability. This raises two questions: 1) what caused the crisis? Was it 'greedy bankers', the natural tendencies of the capitalist system, or the resistance of the working class? 2) how will the crisis end? Will it be with more state regulation, more cuts in living standards or with working class revolution? The Anarchist Bookfair and Mute magazine have invited three speakers to debate these issues: Paul Mason, a presenter on BBC's Newsnight, and author of Meltdown: The End of the Age of Greed John Holloway, author of Change The World Without Taking Power _<http://libcom.org/library/change-world-without-taking-power-john-holloway>_ and Crack Capitalism (forthcoming). /NB See below for a further meeting with John Holloway/.

THE CRISIS HAS RAISED THE STAKES Those who blame capitalism for the crisis, fall into two categories. There are those who tell us we must use the very institutions of capitalist civilization to fight it: its parties and elections, its unions and NGO's: all will be well when the bad politicians and union-bosses are replaced by good ones, and when the state increasingly intervenes in the economy until it has replaced the private sector. Of course that is the more "radical" version of this scheme; the fiery red as opposed to the pale pink of those who merely advocate the perfect symbiosis between state and private capital as the best of all possible worlds. What all of them have in common is their desire to fix and improve capitalism, their belief that what is needed are better, more unselfish leaders, more state-regulation, the creation of more money. Their critique of capitalism is a positive one. The future they envision is still that of a commodity economy with money, banks, prisons, etc, but all a bit more humane. In contrast to this outlook, which characterizes the left generally, more and more voices express a negative critique of capitalism. They do not believe capitalism can be made better, or that it can gradually evolve into something else. It can only get worse, lead to more devastation and misery. For them the root of the problem is not bad leaders or a lack of regulation. The root is capitalism itself, its very foundation: the value-form, which turns everything and everyone into a commodity, whose fate is determined by the market. They want a revolution that puts humans in control of their fate. A revolution that uproots capitalism, that comes from below and sweeps away all the building blocks of capitalist society, all the national, ethnic, racial, religious, boundaries that divide us; a revolution in which the self-organization of the working masses in struggle broadens into the self-organization of a society in which things are produced for human needs, not for profit. This revolution starts from below, with young people in Athens deciding in general assemblies to take back the streets, with workers in China and Korea fighting off the police, with workers in France proclaiming their refusal to accept responsibility for the crisis, with unemployed construction workers in Cleveland entering vacant homes and making them livable for homeless families…In all these examples, laws were broken. Cracks appeared. These cracks will multiply. More important than what is immediately lost, or gained in these struggles, is that they are steps in the development of the consciousness of the necessity and the possibility of revolution. In this process, pro-revolutionaries, those who see that the dynamic of these acts of resistance implies the uprooting of capitalism, are an important component. The clear articulation of the negative critique of capitalism becomes a potent accelerating factor when it is felt in the practical struggle. Pro-revolutionaries must participate in this struggle. Their understanding of the past – the defeats, the pitfalls of the struggle -- and of the potential for the future, leads them to speak out. But too often those pro-revolutionaries don't take that responsibility seriously enough. They too suffer the alienation produced by capitalism. Too often they are "selling" themselves, individually or as an organization. They lose themselves in petty squabbles far removed from the actual reality, in rivalry and in competition. This has to stop. In light of the stakes raised by the present crisis, Internationalist Perspective launched an appeal to all those who share the negative critique of capitalism and thus the same internationalist revolutionary outlook: abandon sectarianism, stop competing, recognize that you share the same goal, recognize that nobody has a patent on the truth, recognize that if you are to really play a revolutionary role, you will need more clarity than you have now; recognize that this clarity requires you to reexamine your dogmas, realize that only by discussing fraternally and working together, can the pro-revolutionary voice become stronger. To discuss with us the state of capitalism's crisis, the potential for resistance to it, IP's appeal and the reactions to it, and more generally the question, "What to do?," we invite you to come to a PUBLIC MEETING at: TRS suites, 44 East 32nd Street (between Park and Madison), Manhattan. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 7 PM. Other groups who share our negative critique of capitalism are invited to present their views and there will be ample time for general discussion.

What lessons can we learn from the past and what are "urban homesteaders" already doing to localize the economy at the neighborhood level? Featuring working class historian Gifford Hartman, who will revisit how working people self-organized survival strategies such as cooperative housing, food production and distribution and other projects providing for basic needs and community self-defense mushroomed up long before the New Deal came into being. K. Ruby, founder of the Oakland Institute for Urban Homesteading, will have practical information and advice on doing-it-yourself when it comes to organic gardening, backyard chickens, beekeeping, greywater, natural building, alternative energy, fermentation, home brewing and food preservation. Caitlin Fitzpatrick of San Francisco Food Not Bombs will discuss how the organization feds communities around the globe vegetarian and vegan food through non-violent direct action. College of Marin instructor Robert Ovetz will guide a brainstorming session about how we can respond to and survive the brewing storm and build and expand projects from the bottom up that already envision the "future in the present". |

Basically its a real simple idea. Me and my boy Hector are holding an open mic to raise funds to directly confront the recession in East Harlem where we both live. There seems to be unlimited dollars to help banks and corporations, but we know the poor suffer first and the most in times like these. We also know there will be no bailout for us. We will be using the money we raise to buy metrocards and will be organizing a day this month where we will be giving free rides as well as important information (know your rights cards, anti-recruitment cards ect) that our community needs to survive these times. So this coming friday, bring your peoples and your rhymes. Even if you can't get there before 8 come through anyway we'll be chillin afterwards. |

Talk: WEDNESDAY 26 November 2008 at 4pm GOLDSMITHS University of London – Warmington Tower 1210 FRIDAY 28 November 2008 at 3pm QUEEN MARY University of London Physics 602 with: Steffen Bohm - Paolo Do - Stephen Dunn - Matthew Fuller - Gerard Hanlon - Stefano Harney - Celia Lury - Noortje Marres - Matteo Pasquinelli - Nirmal Puwar - Gigi Roggero - Tiziana Terranova For a number of weeks in Italy the entire education system – from universities to elementary schools, from students to researchers and from parents to teachers – has been mobilizing. Marches, occupations, demonstrations, pickets and blockages of the metropolitan flow have replaced the dreary rhythm of school timetables and university courses. The protests are directed against the new budget cuts implemented by Berlusconi's government last summer, which seriously undermine the public nature of education and research. The university movement – self-named the "Anomalous Wave" – acts within a specific context, such as the long crisis and decline of the Italian higher education system. However, it also critically underlines common trends in the transformations affecting the university at the European and transnational level: i.e. the Bologna process, the corporatization of education and the changes of the welfare system, the central role of knowledge in the mode of production, the rise of casualised labor, the emergence of a new type of student-worker figure. Moreover, one of its key slogans is particularly interesting "We won't pay for your crisis". It indicates the critical intersection of a double global crisis: the university crisis and the financial crisis. The rise of a "debt generation" is one of the points at which this intersection is clearly observable. But the movement is also an occasion to formulate a deeper, more complex analysis of this double crisis, in order to allow a debate between different perspectives to topics such as the rise of a global university and its various forms of translation, the conflicts in the process of knowledge production, the role of networks in the education and financial markets. we will launch the new special issue of ephemera on " discussing the role of the modern university" (www.ephemeraweb.org) Goldsmiths university of london edu-factory collective www.edu-factory.org school of business and management Queen Mary university of london |
A 'Mute' magazine talk on: 'Capitalist Decline, Financial Crisis & Revolutionary Prospects' with Hillel Ticktin 4pm Saturday 29 November 2008 The Whitechapel Centre, 85 Myrdle St, London, E1. (nearest tube: Whitechapel) Hillel Ticktin's reinterpretation of Marx's ideas enabled him to foresee the disintegration of Soviet Stalinism years before it occurred. Since then he has argued that capitalism itself is in a state of inexorable decline. During the 20th century, world wars, reformism, Stalinism and recently the credit boom successfully maintained capitalism by keeping the working class passive. But does the end of the credit boom mark the end of capitalism's survival strategies? Will the coming recession spark a new working class movement? COME AND JOIN THE DEBATE |

Sunday, October 26 SEMINAR Harriet Fraad & Richard Wolff Psychology and Economy III will focus on how the continued economic deterioration (credit crisis, rising food and energy prices, falling home prices, looming recession, fiscal crises of states and cities, etc.) is interacting with the psychological stresses and strains of US life today (isolation, loneliness, anxiety, depression, violence, child neglect, etc.). One goal of our discussion will be to explore whether a potentially explosive convergence of economic and psychological crises is now under way. A second goal will be to explore the likely evolution of these twin crises. A third goal will be to analyze the possibilities and strategies of left political mobilization around these twin assaults on the US quality of life. Dr. Harriet Fraad is a practicing psychotherapist-hypnotherapist in Manhattan. Sliding scale: $10/$15/$25 Free for Brecht Forum Subscribers |

JACKBEE April 17, 2011 11:52 AM Sam Michael has to be toast, he has been like the invisible man both last season and this. If the Tech Director isnt responsible for the cars poor technical performance, then who is?... Reply Report abuse 3 agree 2 disagree
bollox - Unregistered April 17, 2011 1:21 PM The problem with Williams is both their drivers is crap and cant perform, they should have kept the 'Hulk' as he was a decent driver. 5 agree 5 disagree
Hairpin - Unregistered April 17, 2011 1:32 PM It's all very well making changes to change your fortunes and if its to be Sam Michael who's seen as the problem then so be it, but he cannot be the sole person to make decisions about the direction the team takes, Parr himself must shoulder his share of blame. Making personnel changes is not an easy thing to do mid season as it disrupts everyone, and you have to make sure the replacements are an improvement or you could be going backwards even faster than now. When this type of removal of personnel occurs they call it restructuring as it sounds better, but its costly and the right people have to be obtained or its a waste of time, effort and money, doesn't always work and the people carrying out the procedure are then questionable. 1 agree 0 disagree
JOHN - Unregistered April 17, 2011 2:45 PM Something is clearly missing. Shame, as once they were setting tracks alight with 2 highly strung drivers (Mansell & Piquet) 0 agree 0 disagree
richard April 17, 2011 3:23 PM i had high hopes for williams this year, but was concerned about their drive shaft angles. this seems to hae stood up ok, but the problem is certainly the drivers, and possibly the engine. cossie seem to have dropped the ball a bit. barro had a good result in the brawn, but there, the car flattered him, as it had the ddd advantage. maldonado was just a plain mistake, but money mattered. they need to find a young gun, who will wring the cars neck, and yes, the hulk would have been ideal. Reply Report abuse 1 agree 5 disagree
kranalif - Unregistered April 17, 2011 3:41 PM Looking at the numbers, since Patrick Head left the technical director position to SM back in 2004, the team has performed poorly. The best the got was a 4th in constructors champ. Hulk was massively outperformedd by Rubens, so if Rubens is a crap, then Hulk is "the crap". I don't blame them for sacking him......btw, to claim that they have poor drivers is irreponsible, since (until now) it has been the car which cant finish a race, the car is a crap! Period 4 agree 5 disagree
Arrows - Unregistered April 17, 2011 4:24 PM Rubens showed in 2009 that he can still win races given the right car and as for Maldonado, he may be there primarily for his money but he has only done 3 races, so lets give the guy a chance. I don't think its a driver problem at all, its more that all the top teams are either owned by a major car company or a healthy amount of sponsorship. Williams are a private team and have neither, they just don't have the money or resources to break out of the midfield. They have been slipping into decline since 2004 and its nobody's fault, better drivers or staff wont save them in the long run. 3 agree 1 disagree
TC - Unregistered April 17, 2011 5:02 PM Seems to me they are to ambitious with their revolutionary designs and have not got the resources or skills to develop them properly and should stick to a more straight forward car. A case of their ambition exceeding their talent as was heard recently. 0 agree 0 disagree
blzbub April 17, 2011 6:42 PM it is now painful seeing williams drivers struggle to make the cut Reply Report abuse 0 agree 0 disagree

Why the CFAA's Excessive Criminalization Needs Reform
It's past time for Congress to reform the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA)—the law used in the aggressive prosecution of the late activist and Internet pioneer Aaron Swartz. While Aaron's case made national headlines, it was only of one of many instances where the CFAA has been used to threaten draconian penalties against defendants in situations where little or no economic harm had occurred.
Unfortunately, last week, the House Judiciary Committee floated changes to the CFAA that are the exact opposite of reforms proposed by EFF and a host of other organizations. The proposed changes increase penalties across the board, expand the scope of the statute, and criminalize new actions. These changes are completely unnecessary, as the CFAA already duplicates many crimes written into other laws. The changes only make the law much worse.
Below are just some of the many instances where the CFAA is redundant. Some of these examples are directly drawn from the DOJ's own Computer Crimes Manual. Other examples include claims companies can pursue—like breach of contract, tortious interference, and other state laws—instead of pushing for Congress and the Justice Department to criminalize website terms of service and employee terms of use violations.
Violation of the CFAA | What It Is | Crimes the CFAA Duplicates |
1030(a)1 | Accesses a computer without authorization to obtain classified information |
1030(a)2 | Accesses a computer without authorization and obtaining information |
1030(a)3 | Accesses a computer without authorization used by the US government |
1030(a)4 | Accesses a computer with the intent to defraud or to obtain information more than $5,000. |
1030(a)5 | (A) Intentionally damaging a computer.(B) Recklessly damaging a computer by intentional access. (C) Negligently causing damage to a computer without authorization. |
1030(a)6 | Trafficking in passwords |
1030(a)7 | Extortion involving computers |
Even under EFF's reform, all of these other statutes could still be used to go after legitimate crimes, and it will still be a serious crime under the CFAA for an outsider to steal proprietary information, to knowingly transmit codes that cause damage to a computer, to traffic in passwords, or engage in extortion by using threats of intrusion.
Go here to tell you Congressional representative to reform the CFAA so it can only used to go after real criminals, instead of security researchers, activists, innovators, and entrepreneurs.

What Happens If Brokerage Firm Goes Bankrupt?
See what happens to client's mutual funds, stocks and bonds if discount online stock brokerage firm goes into bankruptcy (out of business, becomes broke). It applies to Scottrade, TD Ameritrade, Charles Schwab, Etrade, Fidelity Investments, MB Trading, Lightspeed Trading, Just2trade, Vanguard, Tradeking, Optionshouse, Wellstrade/Wells Fargo, Optionsxpress, Interactive Brokers, Merrill Lynch/Edge, Firstrade, Capital One ShareBuilder, TradeMonster and TradeStation IRA and non-IRA accounts.
What Happens if a Brokerage Firm Goes Bankrupt?
Every time, when a registered brokerage firm goes bankrupt, the securities and cash that you have deposited at the firm remain to be safe. Client assets are usually moved and transferred to another registered brokerage firm as soon as the authorities find a brokerage firm is in trouble, facing liquidity problems, or has already filed for bankruptcy protection in bankruptcy court. U.S. securities firms and brokerage houses are required not only meet minimum standards of financial requirements (including net capital, liquidity standards, etc) but are also required to register with and be members of the SIPC, also known as the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. When a brokerage firm is registered and a member of the SIPC, it carries what is essentially an insurance policy for its client's deposits. Today, the SIPC will insure client's accounts that are held at a brokerage firm to upwards of $500,000.
On top of the SIPC's automatic $500,000 per account insurance, many Wall Street firms will go out of their way to purchase additional insurance through the likes of Lloyds of London. The firms that carry additional insurance often carry it to levels as high as $5,000,000 or even $10,000,000 per client. The brokerage firms that carry additional insurance will usually provide the details of all additional account insurance to their clients upon demand.
What Happens to Client's Accounts if a Broker Goes Bankrupt?
Due to the rarity of a brokerage firm going bankrupt, each circumstance is usually handled differently. During the banking crisis of 2008, the brokerage firm Bear Stearns went bankrupt and was bought by J.P. Morgan.
In the case of Drexel Burnham Lambert in 1990, this firm decided to self-liquidate. When this takes place, securities regulators, such as the SEC and FINRA, are assigned to the case to make the smoothest transition of the client's assets from the bankrupt firm to a pre-determined SIPC-protected brokerage firm or multiple SIPC-protected brokerage firms as needed to handle the quantity of client accounts.
If My Brokerage (Scottrade, TD Ameritrade, Schwab, Fidelity, Vanguard, Etrade, etc) goes Bankrupt, What Should I do?
As soon as you hear that your brokerage firm is in financial trouble you should contact both the firm, FINRA and the SIPC. Follow any and all instructions they give you, especially those given by FINRA and the SIPC. They will guide you through the process of your account/asset transfer to the transferee brokerage firm.
Brokerage Firm Liquidation: What Happens
As soon as your brokerage firm goes bankrupt and it is determined that a SIPC Liquidation will take place, a letter will be sent out to all client account holders. The letter will state that the brokerage firm has closed its doors and official procedures for the SIPC to begin a "Direct Payment Procedure" (the liquidation proceedings in court) have begun. If your brokerage firm goes bankrupt, and the "Direct Payment Procedure" letter is sent out by the SIPC, you will be advised that you promptly get together all facts surrounding your accounts at the troubled firm. This would include all brokerage records, monthly and quarterly statements, and any/all trade confirmations of securities bought and sold in the account. Other steps to take are to confirm that the statements factually show all of your deposits of cash and securities into the account.
Additionally, check all canceled checks and other cash withdrawal records. Locate canceled checks and correspondence with your brokerage firm. It is especially important to mark and record any withdrawals and/or transactions that you did not authorize.
Lastly, it is utmost importance to follow all instructions and time limits set forth by the SIPC. The Federal bankruptcy court will require all claims to be filed by a set date – after that date; no other claims will be allowed to be made against the brokerage firm. Because of this rule, it is best to file all paperwork as quickly as possible in order to assure a smooth transition to the new SIPC insured brokerage firm.
How Long Does It Take?
Most client accounts will see the asset transfer process complete in one to three months, start to finish. The time to complete the process can be sped along if the brokerage firm records are complete and accurate when sent in to the SIPC.
It is best to keep in mind that clients may not be able to execute any trades during the SIPC sponsored liquidation process. Also, if the liquidating firm is large, the firm's liquidation my affect other firms including and of the firm's customers including what are known as introducing firms. If this happens, the overall process will continue, but at a longer time frame from start to finish.

What Does the SIPC cover?
If your brokerage firm is SIPC Insured, the SIPC Insurance will cover the securities and cash that are held in the account. It will also include up to $500,000 worth of these securities including up to $250,000 in cash.
What Does the SIPC Not Cover?
If your brokerage firm is insured by the SIPC and goes bankrupt, the SIPC will not cover any losses due to the upward or downward movement of the market. It will also not include any losses due to lost investment opportunities, nor will it cover any losses due to poor investment decisions.
What about Alternative Investments?
The SIPC will not cover any investments in futures investments, including commodity futures. Other investments not covered are fixed annuities, currency investments, hedge funds, or limited partnerships (LPs) that are not registered with the SEC.
Lastly, any accounts of any directors, officers, partners, or others with significant beneficial interest to the troubled brokerage firm will not be covered by the SIPC.
Stay Informed, Follow Instructions, File on Time
The final instruction to those who hold accounts at a brokerage firm that may or already is going bankrupt is three fold:
Stay Informed: Keep ahead of the situation. Contact FINRA, the SIPC, and the firm as soon as you hear any news of a potential failure of the brokerage firm.
Follow Instructions: Once you have received your instructions from the SIPC, gather all of your information and follow all instructions to the letter.
File on Time: It is utmost important to file all given SIPC paperwork on or before the required due date. Bankruptcy proceedings have clear cut off dates, and any claims after this date will not be included in the transfer proceedings.
