Libor Arrests (Finally) Coming
Just out from Bloomberg:
Note the word "traders" - not CEOs, not COOs, not General Counsels, not Managers, not Supervisors... Traders. Because remember: it was a scheming 28-year old Frenchman that was the mastermind behind Goldman's CDO fraud for years. Nobody else. Just him. That said, we are looking forward to the latest minimum prison reality TV show: "How Many Cigarettes* For A Bollinger?"
U.K. prosecutors are poised to arrest former traders and rate setters at UBS AG (UBSN), Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc (RBS) and Barclays Plc within a month for questioning over their role in the Libor scandal, a person with knowledge of the probe said.
The arrests will be made by police under the direction of prosecutors at the Serious Fraud Office within the next month, said the person, who declined to be identified because the matter isn't public. Arrests in the U.K. are made at an early stage of the investigation, allowing police and prosecutors to question people under caution and may not lead to charges.
The SFO has 40 people working on the probe into manipulation of the London interbank bank offered rate, a benchmark for financial products valued at $360 trillion worldwide, and has involved the City of London Police, said David Green, the agency's director.
"Significant developments" in the case are coming "in the near future," Green said yesterday in an interview at his office in London without giving further details and declining to comment on any possible arrests.
* Called something quite different in the country with the 1000% debt/GDP.

Within a month.....they seem almost seem serious.
Jump, Karl Rove, jump!
Don't talk about this or your maid will slit her own throat after murdering your children that she loved....
Zer0 Hedge readers going to be arrested for reading about the LIBOR scandal!
I was gonna say, in this fucked up world they'll probably arrest those who refused to take part in the manipulation. Whistle blowers are more dangerous than terrorists obviously, just ask Mr. Assange.
Readers should realize that comments such as "you'll be arrested for reading this" have a chilling effect on free speech. I've made this remark in jest with friends and regretted it. Trolls make it on purpose.
Mocking the power structure is a step towards solving the problem.
Mocking the power structure would make sense only if more people understood what is going on. That is a dream however not many know and even less care. Most prefer to laugh until the end. I will not blame them for their choise. To be honest I wish I was born stupid, deaf and dumb. For all the good knowing has brought me.
how true:
"you'll be arrested for reading this"
in the eastern block (russia [ussr aka cccp], east germany [gdr] etc.), apparently, anybody could be openly a racist, bigot, chauvinist, etc. and still be cool; however, the moment one read some anti-communist pamphlet or, god forbid, joked about or spoke against the communist party, he/she was sentenced to life in gulak.
soon, in ameerika, life in fema penitentiary for speaking up against hofjuden and joo bankers.
There is another troll tactic. Attempt to taint a valid concern with a stupid one. Bonus points for using an insulting term to do it.
A person's religion is not an issue that concerns me or any of my friends.
Karl Rove, you are finished. Have you found a retirement community yet?
Guilt by association. Probably all the Wise Latina needs to lock your wise-guy ass up. And don't worry, you'll get a good tenderizing first.
I'll believe they're serious when Jamie's led out in chains by a couple of US Marshalls
Jump, Karl Rove, jump!
Dude it's over....move on amigo.
He'll be fine......not so much for these guys.
• Energizer -
The St. Louis-based company said Thursday that it expects to shed about 1,500 employees. When finished, the restructuring should lead to $200 million in pretax yearly savings, Energizer said. It aims to have most of its restructuring steps finished by the end of September 2014.
• Westinghouse -
Westinghouse Anniston, the contractor responsible for shutting down Anniston's chemical weapons incinerator, has reduced its workforce by another 50 employees.
• Research in Motion Limited -
Research in Motion Ltd., the maker of BlackBerry smartphones, laid off about 200 people at its U.S. headquarters in Irving on Wednesday, according to a source close to the company who did not want to be named.
• Lightyear Network Solutions -
More than one dozen employees at a Pikeville company lost their jobs this week. Officials with Lightyear Network Solutions said they are consolidating offices in Louisville and Pikeville to save money.
The Providence Journal Co. laid off 23 full-time workers Wednesday as part of a cost-cutting effort, including 16 members of the Providence Newspaper Guild and 7 non-union employees.
The company says 240 employees will lose their jobs with the closing of Hawker Beechcraft Services facilities in Little Rock, Ark.; Mesa, Ariz.; and San Antonio, Texas.
• Boeing (30% of their management staff) -
Boeing Co. said Wednesday it plans to employ 30% fewer executives at its Boeing Defense, Space & Security unit by the end of 2012 compared to 2010 levels.
CVPH Medical Center has handed pink slips to 17 employees. The layoffs — nine in management and eight hourly staffers — are part of an effort to "help bolster the hospital's financial position in 2013 and beyond," a press release said.
• US Cellular -
The move will result in 980 job cuts at U.S. Cellular, with 640 in the Chicago area, according to a spokeswoman. The cuts are slightly under 12 percent of the approximately 8,400 total employees U.S. Cellular had at the end of the third quarter.
• Momentive Performance Materials -
About 150 workers at Sistersville's Momentive Performance Materials plant will be temporarily laid off later this month, officials said this week.
• Rocketdyne -
About 100 employees at Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne, most of whom work in the San Fernando Valley, were laid off Wednesday in response to dwindling government spending on space exploration, the company said. The layoffs were effective immediately, and 75 percent of them came at the facilities on Canoga and De Soto avenues, which employ about 1,100 people. The company has six sites across the Valley.
• Brake Parts -
• Vestas Wind Systems -
The leader of an automotive parts plant in Lincoln County has told state officials that there are plans to lay off 75 workers starting in late December…The layoffs are expected to start Dec. 28 and continue in the first quarter of 2013
Vestas Wind Systems A/S (VWS) is seeking to sell a stake of as much as 20 percent and said it's reducing headcount by 3,000 to raise the staff cuts by the biggest wind turbine maker to almost a third over two years.
• Husqvarna -
Husqvarna AB (HUSQB), the world's biggest maker of powered garden tools, plans to cut about 600 jobs in a move that will save 220 million kronor ($33 million) a year by 2014.
• Center for Hospice New York -
The Center for Hospice and Palliative Care plans to temporarily lay off as many as 40 employees next year as it embarks on a major renovation of the inpatient unit at its Cheektowaga campus.
• Bristol-Meyers -
Bristol-Myers Squibb is following up its lackluster third-quarter results with almost 480 layoffs. As Pharmalot reports, the company notified the New Jersey government that it would scale back in Plainsboro, which means the cuts will hit its sales operations.
Trumbull printer- and scanning-equipment provider Oce North America, Inc. will lay off 135 workers in three Connecticut communities, including East Hartford, according to its notice with the state Labor Department.
The company, which was among those who had received an Obamacare waiver in the past, is looking to limit workers to 28 hours per week. A full time employee that is required to have health insurance (lest the employer pay a fine) works 30 hours per week, as defined by the Obamacare law.
• West Ridge Mine -
In its statement, UtahAmerican Energy blames the Obama administration for instituting policies that will close down "204 American coal-fired power plants by 2014? and for drastically reducing the market for coal.
• United Blood Services Gulf -
United Blood Services Gulf South region, the non-profit blood service provider for much of south Louisiana and Mississippi, will lay off approximately 10 percent of its workforce. It was a hard decision to make according to Susan Begnaud, Regional Center Director for the Gulf South region.
Even after losing, those rich, heartless f**kers at Bain are still trying to kill the wives of good Americans.
They really are heartless bastards aren't they? Making people work for a living....when they could just live off foodstamps.
It's all very simple. All you need is around 15 % tariffs on Chinese goods but lets make it 50 % for good measure. All your problems solved. That would level the playing field considering how much subsidizing every industry gets in China from their Government for exporting.
Fuck I wish Mexico would get it's act together. At least Americans can walk across the boarder for work.
Yeah, it's Obamacare. That's the problem. And apparently employers are psychic and have been for decades in predicting that this day would come.
"But from 2000 to 2011 the rate of loss dramatically accelerated, with manufacturing jobs shrinking at a rate nearly six times faster (3.1 percent per year) than the rate in the prior two decades. Manufacturing lost 5.4 million jobs for a decline of 31.4 percent. (Figures 1 and 2) The economy lost 13 times as many manufacturing jobs between 2000 and 2010 than between 1990 and 2000. On average, 1,276 manufacturing jobs were lost every day for the past 12 years.
I see, still Bush's fault.
Bush was a nincompoop.
Cheney was the real brains behind all of the dastardly deeds.
It's Cheney's fault; so I will say until the day I die.
Companies are shifting their employees to part time status to avoid the 30-hour health insurance requirement. I did not suggest Obamacare is responsible for massive job loses.
If Obamacare actually brought down health care costs I'd be all for it (I had NO PROBLEM with a public option) - but as it stands, Obamacare is just a giant gift to the insurance and pharmaceutical companies.
Incredible, GetZeeGold. And let me add Snakeeyes' warning this month on ZH that "Obama asked Lockheed to delay layoffs of 123k until after the election. So, the 171k NFP bump that Rachel Maddow was cackling about is actually only +48k. But this accounting fabrication will hit after the election."
With this additional warning: "Markets will react BADLY to an Obama win."
The backup story is on Confounded Interest which concludes that: "This is the WORST recovery from a financial crisis since 1882."
I'll see your Energizer...
and raise you a Comet
6,600 staff fukt in the butt - just b4 Xmas
Voucher and gift card holders, up to £500 a shot, advised to "get bent" - just b4 Xmas
Management to trouser up to £80 million - it must be Xmas !;o)
Make sure to give them enough time to load all their shit on a private jet and fly to South America or some tiny island in the Pacific.
Edit: crap - just saw the note about Traders only. Have fun in jail, I guess.
The big fish, if ever implicated, will just transfer to NY where their "expertise" is ignored by the DOJ and the SEC.
Are you sure? After all it the "SERIOUS" Fraud affice that is after them as opposed to the "NORMAL" Fraud Office. What a fucking joke.
Lol ;(
UBS executive management probably just threw a copy of the names of the 10,000 people they screwed over last month into a big hat and randomly picked out a few names to be doubly-sacrificed lambs.
these "traders" should talk. go public. incriminate the top brass asap!
That would be the best way to stay out of jail. Or get suicided. Could go either way.
i wasn't even thinking in order to stay out of jail because that would be to be a rat. i'm thinking more along lines of being clearly thrown under bus by their superiors and hence the right thing to do (in a culture where they only do the wrong things).
The SFO (UK`s - `serious fraud office`) are extremely beholden to the political establishment, and hence the banks. They have also proven time and time again to be completely inept at solving anything more complicated than a fake signature on a cheque. Dont get too hopeful about this, they are going to be used to enable a thorogh cover up. For now its just a headline grab to give the impression of intent to mount a serious investigation. If they were serious though, who thinks they would be giving the targets of their investigation a months notice ! joke.
"...it was a scheming 28-year old Frenchman that was the mastermind behind Goldman's CDO fraud for years."

How very true --- secret correspondence was recently found detailing how Fabrice, while still in diapers, was secretly corresponding with Blyth Masters at JPMorgan, explaining in the simplest terms possible -- so she could understand -- how to create those Credit Default Swaps, and variants on the CDO.
Then, other recently unearthed correspondence demonstrations how the prodigious Fabrice, explained to Terry how to set up those B.I.S.T.R.O.s --- that Fab Guy!!!!!
Plausible deniability bitchez... Inn't dat how it works (or is simply that the whole justice system is as corrupt as banking)?

Jon Corzine went for a jog and sauna this morning.
Oooooh Kay.
Right. Sure. Believeable.
who the fuck are they kidding?
So when is Eric Holder -- who has a contempt warrant out for him issued by the House of Representatives -- gonna get cuffed, booked and printed?
The election's over, that contempt warrant gonna go the way of the wind.
Arrests are irrelevant. It's convictions that matter. Lock 'em up and throw away the key.
Time to tar and feather
Cue the Apple has bottomed and is the buy of a lifetime talk...for 15 minutes....

RUSTON - Twelve Louisiana Tech current or former student-athletes earned their degrees Saturday during winter commencement exercises held at the Thomas Assembly Center.
Former Bulldog running back and NFL veteran Ryan Moats was among the group as the Texas native earned his degree in general studies after bypassing his senior year and leaving the University early following the 2004 season for the NFL Draft.
In addition to Moats' graduation, eleven more Tech student-athletes graduated on Saturday including Larry Banks (football, sociology), Richie Casey (football, kinesiology-health promotions), IK Enemkpali (football, sociology), Ray Holley (football, master's in counseling and guidance), David Jones (football, kinesiology-health promotions), Michelle Jones (softball, health and physical education), Amanda Krueger (softball, sociology), Emily Maher (volleyball, family and child studies), Stephany Salas (volleyball, sociology), Kim Smith (T&F, general studies) and Alex Williams (baseball, kinesiology-health promotions).
Louisiana Tech's student athletes continue to rank among the top in the state and conference in Graduation Success Rate and Academic Progress Rate.

Rather than my usual scroll through the Food and Drinks tab on Pinterest, I recently decided to look at the DIY projects the site had to offer. After about an hour of searching, all I found myself doing was poring over such complex, yet creative crafts, labeled as "Do-it-yourself," but realistically, I knew I would never be able to recreate them, regardless of how hard I tried.
I finally stumbled upon this amazingly cute DIY mustache mug that even I thought I was potentially capable of making with my unfortunate lack of artistic skill.
All you'll need is:
- 1 solid colored ceramic mug (Your choice of color, but I went with a plain white)
- Scissors
- 1 sharpie marker
- Tape
- Print-out of a cartoon mustache*
*You can use any mustache style of your choosing, but the one I used is from here.
To make your own fun mug:
1. Take the cartoon mustache print-out and fold it in half. Take the scissors and snip the center of the mustache picture to make a hole to start cutting out the mustache from the inside. You want to then cut the black mustache part out, thus leaving the white outside with a hole for the mustache stencil.
2. Place the mustache stencil wherever you would like on your mug, and then tape the stencil down securely.
3. Color in the mustache-shaped hole with the sharpie marker, carefully outlining and filling in the mustache to the best of your ability. Allow to dry for a minute or two to avoid any smudging.
4. Carefully remove the stencil from the mug by taking off the tape, and you will be left with a mustache on your mug. At this point, you can take the marker and touch up any areas that may have not been drawn on smoothly, to create the perfect mustache design.
5. Lastly, place the mug into the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. After this, your beautiful mustache design will be able to stay on your mug. I would recommend just hand-washing the mug, as I read on Pinterest that sometimes the dishwasher can actually slightly rub off the sharpie design.
After completing this project, I can now look back on the activity and feel proud of myself for actually being able to fulfill an artistic task with some decent results. I can personally just imagine how this little adorable mug will cheer up my winter nights as I curl up with a blanket and a mustache mug full of hot tea. Not only can you enjoy this DIY yourself, but also, a mustache mug could be the perfect, quick and easy gift for a friend, family member or anyone else special to you this holiday season, or really anytime at all.
And by no means should you feel restricted to draw just a mustache, as this trick can be used with absolutely any desired design.
With simple items that I was quickly able to find in my house, I was able to create a fun DIY project that I am sure I will enjoy. So, whether you plan to keep this mug or give it away, I would highly recommend giving this idea a try, as I am pretty sure you'll love it as much as I do.

You have to give it to the Senate Minority Leader. I've never heard an elected leader so blatantly profess his primary goal of governing is
jobs doing whatever is necessary to have the GOP take the White House back in 2012. Not surprisingly, McConnell was pretty transparent in his assessment that destabilizing the global economy is pretty cool as long as you get what you want in the end.
"I think some of our members may have thought the default issue was a hostage you might take a chance at shooting. Most of us didn't think that. What we did learn is this — it's a hostage that's worth ransoming. And it focuses the Congress on something that must be done."
– Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), quoted by the Washington Post, on the debt ceiling negotiations.
The disintegration of governance. Good luck, America.

Eyelid surgery is the ideal procedure designed to reduce fatty tissue around the lower and upper eyelids. Typically, candidates for this surgery complain about sagging skin that can impair vision or puffiness in the lower eye area. While blepharoplasty can remove excess skin and fine wrinkles in the lower eye area, it does not eradicate all your wrinkles. There are other procedures that target wrinkles, but Eyelid surgery can greatly enhance and brighten your face. For a thorough assessment it's important to schedule your complimentary consultation with Dr. Salomon to thoroughly discuss your options.

Which - pending mark Webber ever finishing as WDC runnerup - looks a lot like Vettel dominance.

Inevitably in the careers of successful rappers is the questioning of whether they are actually from the areas they represent.
Big Sean has been at the butt of claims throughout his career of whether he is actually from a place of struggle in Detroit or not. Recently, in an interview between Detroit native Danny Brown and The Fader, Brown said many people from or who live in Detroit don't consider him from the area. He also said Sean "Probably was real spoiled or sheltered" as a child.
Perhaps it was Danny Brown's comments that sparked Big Sean's latest retaliation but in an interview with Hip Hop Nation, Sean wanted to make sure listeners heard his latest attempt at confirming he's been around the poorer area's of his hometown.
"Fuck whoever talking about Big Sean and don't know nothing about Detroit or the streets of Detroit," Sean proclaimed when unprompted during the interview. "I be in there. Matter of fact, not only do I be there and be in the hood, I be helping the hood and giving back to the hood."
"I'm the only one out of ya'll rappers or even new rappers who was paying for Thanksgiving dinners last year, buying Christmas gifts," he continued. "So if you ever talking shit about me like I ain't be up in the hood, nigga you crazy."
It's unclear if Big Sean's comments were specifically aimed at Brown but his latest rant comes only days after The Fader interview was published.

How to Stop People from Stealing Your Lunch
Have you ever noticed a problem with people stealing your mini-muffins while on their break from Digital Electronics or in between Spanish and Calculus? If so, now might be the time to start considering tactics to protect the food that is integral to your survival.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Kindly ask everyone to stop taking your food.
2Make it clear that if people are going to steal anything, they had better not take your bar.
3Try hiding your lunch in a classmate's gym bag. This may backfire when everyone else finds out.
4Consider putting it in the fridge along with everyone else's lunch (if these lunches don't get stolen), but ultimately reject this solution because it is too logical.
5Keep your lunch in your backpack. Learn to love squashed food.
6Try bringing food that you like but nobody else will want to eat.
7Get a combination lock.
8Add some nasty ingredients to the food. This will, of course, render it useless and at the same time teach people a lesson (roach livers would be nice).
9Depending on how much of a sadist you are, upon discovering it missing, say that you have a medical condition, then use the placebo effect as you faint, have a seizure, or even use it as an excuse to skip school/work due to your "condition".
10Alternatively, just in advance tell everybody that you have a condition and that the food is modified. Do not impress a classmate/co-worker you'd like to date with this.
11You could make your peanut butter and jelly sandwich look like it is old and moldy. Just take a little peanut butter, add some green food colouring, and smear it on. Put a little powdered sugar over it and it looks gross, but totally edible!
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- To go along with number 11: If you want, you can add a bruised banana by using a butter knife to gently dig the slightest bit in. Let it sit for an hour, and black-brown spots will appear on your banana. (This doesn't affect the banana inside, although it might if you dig a huge gash in it.)
- Remember to actually close the lock. It's useless if you don't.
- Don't forget the combination. That's just asking for trouble.
Things You'll Need
- A lunch
- A lunchbox
- A combination lock

Grading Criteria
Like all courses, the bases for a student's evaluation are her or his performance in accordance to provided evaluation criteria, course objectives, and material. To that end, students are strongly encouraged to perform at a level commensurate with grading criteria set forth in the course rubric provided below. Grades will be determined and based on work completed and turned in by the last class. Acceptance of work after this date is strictly prohibited.
Depth of Scholarship (10%) - Assignments should represent the learner's careful, thoughtful efforts to cover the key elements of the topic thoroughly. Content should go beyond mere description or paraphrasing. The work should be thematic and based on an analytical framework of the learner's choosing.
Originality of Ideas and Research (15%) - All assignments must demonstrate a unique, creative approach to the problem being studied and represent the original work of the learner.
Theoretical and Conceptual Framework (15%) - Assignments should display the learner's understanding of the theories and concepts relevant to the topic. Learners should form their arguments by taking competing concepts and theories into account.
Use of Literature (15%) - Assignments should be grounded in appropriate, adequate, and timely academic literature. No specific number of sources is prescribed, but those used should represent the best available references on the topic. Sources not appropriate for assignments include, but are not limited to dictionaries, encyclopedias, thesauruses, textbooks. For this course only, the nature of the material requires the use of business newspapers and magazines. Normally these periodicals have no place in academic research and writing. Below is a list of on-line Business Periodicals appropriate for use in this course. While this is not an exclusive list, it demonstrative of the quality and reliability required.
Substantive Value (15%) - Assignments should contribute substantive value to the understanding of the subject.
Clarity and Logic of Presentation (10%) - Assignments should present ideas in a clear manner and with a strong organizational structure. Coverage of facts, arguments, and conclusions should be logically related and consistent.
Grammar and Adherence to APA Format (20%) – The rules governing the grammar and usage of standard American English must be followed, and language should be clear, precise, and appropriate for the intended scholarly audience. When formatting and composing assignments, learners must follow the guidelines described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. In addition the overall layout of assignments, including citations and reference pages, should adhere to APA style.
How Points and Percentages Equate to Grades:
Late Submission of Course Materials:
Late Assignments: Assignments must either be submitted in hard copy or sent electronically before the start of class on the due date shown in the syllabus. Assignments sent after class starts shall be deemed late. A 10% per day deduction will be made on the student's grade for the late assignment with a maximum of four days (40%). After four days, the assignment will no longer be accepted for grading. Per course policy, no assignments will be accepted after the last day of the course.
Incompletes: I do not allow incompletes in my courses.
Classroom Rules of Conduct:
Classroom Rules of Conduct:
Business & This Class: Keep in mind, the study of business is not necessarily about "getting the right answer," as much as it is about identifying the problem and developing a defensible course of action or position. Providing an answer that is conditional, i.e., "it depends . . .," is perfectly acceptable if a proper analysis and research is provided. Answers to business questions are rarely clear and succinct.
Classroom Decorum: Although I do not anticipate a problem, I want to remind everyone that Park University is a professional environment. Your classmates and facilitator deserve your full and complete attention. Failing to extend this courtesy will result in the loss of participation points.
Also, bear in mind that the nature of academic discussion is adversarial, and differences of opinion are bound to arise. In dealing with these differences, individuals should thoughtfully, constructively, and politely express their opinions. Remarks which are personally disparaging, rude, inappropriate to the subject matter, or not in-line with Park's Student Policies will NOT be tolerated.

Academic Honesty:As a learning community, the University upholds the highest standards of academic integrity in all its academic activities, by faculty, staff, administrators and students. Academic integrity involves much more than respecting intellectual property rights. It lies at the heart of learning, creativity, and the core values of the University. Those who learn, teach, write, publish, present, or exhibit creative works are advised to familiarize themselves with the requirements of academic integrity and make every effort to avoid possible offenses against it, knowingly or unknowingly. Park University 2009-2010 Graduate Catalog Page 31
Plagiarism involves the appropriation of another person's ideas, interpretation, words (even a few), data, statements, illustration or creative work and their presentation as one's own. An offense against plagiarism constitutes a serious academic misconduct. Although offenses against academic integrity can manifest themselves in various ways, the most common forms of offenses are plagiarism and cheating. Plagiarism goes beyond the copying of an entire article. It may include, but is not limited to: copying a section of an article or a chapter from a book, reproduction of an art work, illustration, cartoon, photograph and the like and passing them off as one's own. Copying from the Internet is no less serious an offense than copying from a book or printed article, even when the material is not copyrighted.
Plagiarism also includes borrowing ideas and phrases from, or paraphrasing, someone else's work, published or unpublished, without acknowledging and documenting the source. Acknowledging and documenting the source of an idea or phrase, at the point where it is utilized, is necessary even when the idea or phrase is taken from a speech or conversation with another person.

Attendance Policy:
Professors are required to maintain attendance records and report absences. Excused absences can be granted by the instructor, for medical reasons, school sponsored activities, and employment-related demands, including temporary duty. Students are responsible for any missed work. Absences for two successive weeks, without approved excuse, will be reported to the Director of the individual graduate program, or to the Executive Director for the Graduate School, for appropriate action. Students with such a record of absences, without an approved excuse, may be administratively withdrawn from the class and notified that an "F" will be recorded, unless the student initiates official withdrawal from the class(es).Park University 2009-2010 Graduate Catalog Page 35

Two servicemen post humiliating photos of Palestinian detainees online, cause uproar. One photo shows boy in sniper's sights. IDF: Cases not criminal in nature
Yoav Zitun
Published: 02.17.13, 13:15 / Israel News
Yoav Zitun
Ynet has learned that two soldiers faced disciplinary action over taking inappropriate photos with Palestinian detainees. One serviceman was sentenced to 14 days of detention and the other's case is still ongoing.
Related stories:
The first case involved a soldier who serves with one of the Infantry Corps deployed in the Hebron
area, who posted a photograph on his Facebook
page, about a week ago, in which he is seen standing beside four detained Palestinians, bound and blindfolded.
The Palestinian men were wanted for questioning over alleged terrorist activity. The picture was taken while they were waiting for their transport for further interrogation.
The soldier guarding the four was photographed by a fellow soldier and later posted the photograph online.
The incident was found out by the brigade's commanders, who decided the incident does not warrant a criminal investigation, but should be handled within the unit as a disciplinary issue.
The soldier who took the photograph was not punished, but the soldier photographed was sentenced to 14 days detention. He was also instructed to remove the picture from his Facebook page and delete it from his mobile phone.
Sources within the unit claimed the soldier was punished so severely to emphasize the army's zero tolerance toward cases of this nature.
The IDF Spokesperson's Unit
said that "The soldier was judged for a moral failure since photographs of this nature falsely represent the IDF and its values.
"Following the photograph, the Military Police ordered an investigation be opened into the incident. Before the investigation began, it was discovered that the soldier was already judged by his commanders.
"Since the documented offence isn't criminal and since the legal procedure conducted by the soldier's commanding officer was found appropriate, a disciplinary action was decided to be sufficient."
'Sniper's' photo
Another soldier was implicated in an incident of a similar nature. The soldier, a sniper, posted a photograph on his Instagram
account in which a Palestinian child is seen with his back to the camera through the sights of a sniper rifle.
In this case as well the soldier hurriedly removed the photograph on Saturday, but it was already distributed in the social networks and on anti-Israeli
According to IDF sources, it was not proven that the soldier actually took the photograph himself, saying that it is possible he found it online and decided to upload it to his account.
The photograph could even be fake, they said.
The IDF's Spokesperson's Unit said that "this is a severe incident which doesn't accord with the IDF's spirit and values. The issue was brought to the attention of the soldier's commanding officers, will be examined and properly handled."
Over the last few years, many cases surfaced of Israeli soldiers abusing Palestinians.
In two cases which caused significant uproar, soldier Eden Abergil
documented the "best time of her life" by photographing bound detainees and Border Guard
officer Shani Sevilla abused a 17-year-old Palestinian detainee and pointed a gun to his head.

Ericsson Shows off Eco-Friendly Base Station
Published on: 4th Sep 2007
Note -- this news article is more than a year old.
Ericsson is showing off a radio base station site concept that is not only better for the environment but more cost efficient to adopt and run and (subjectively) more attractive to look at. The modern design from renowned Scandinavian architect Thomas Sandell is a completely new approach to site architecture the 5m diameter 40m high flexible concrete tower encapsulates all radio base station equipment including the antennas.
The aesthetics of the site concept, named the Ericsson Tower Tube, have been further enhanced by the choice of construction materials. The flexible concrete tower can be colored and branded to the operator's specific needs to either blend in with its surroundings or become an attractive landmark for the local community.
And the concrete itself has a lower environmental impact than traditional steel, producing 30 percent less CO2 emissions during production and transportation.
Diverging from standard design, the radio base station is placed at the top of the tower cutting the distance between it and the antenna. This gives capacity and coverage benefits for the cellular network and can together with the fact that no active cooling is needed reduce energy consumption up to 40 percent.
Furthermore, as the new design occupies less land, 60-75 percent less than conventional sites, site acquisition is easier. Being a self-contained structure, operators can also avoid the need for security fences and the cost of maintaining and patrolling them.
Ulf Ewaldsson, Vice President and Head of Product Area Radio, Ericsson, says: "The appearance of radio base station sites has not really been considered before. They have essentially been a steel tower and a container surrounded by a chain-link fence.
"With this new approach, we not only create a more attractive look for this essential piece of community architecture, but we have also developed a design that is better for the environment and more cost-efficient to run."

Short-Films: The Burn Units – Ride / Alive
Burn Energy Drink is a high sugar, high caffeine content energy drink with a citrus flavor that comes in a 8.3 (250 ml) or 16.9 oz (500 ml) can. The drink is distributed in several countries by The Coca-Cola Company and the brand is hugely involved with extreme sports like skate, skiing and snowboarding and sponsors a number of events across the world but mainly in Europe and they also have several snowboarding teams across Europe. So naturally they've used those resources to create short-films involving their athletes and their brand resulting in a few artistic videos that have been coming out since last year from which i'm going to feature a couple.
The first one to come out was my favorite and its called Ride. Directed by Garth Davis and set on advertising agency Publicis Mojo, Sydney, Australia, the film was shot in Mexico City and features Steve Berra along with mexican skaters, Jesus Gonzalez, Eder Martinez, Mario Saenz, Angel Santiago and American Luis Tolentino. The film shows the skaters riding their boards across the city and lighting on fire as they go, bursting out the energy trapped inside their bodys. Its a seriously good, amazingly shot and brilliantly executed film!

Alive its a more recent work released at the beginning of this year and features Austrian snowboarder Gigi Rüf, Norwegian Ståle Sandbech and French Arthur Longo in a film shot in Vorarlberg, Austria and directed by Per-Hampus Stålhandske. The concept is similar to the first but at the same time it has a completely different feel to it, nonetheless its also a brilliant video:

Updated the etoufee recipe
Just a FYI that I slightly updated the etoufee recipe. I cut the amount of garlic in half (smudge on my original notes) and specified how much salt, cayenne, and black pepper I use. Other than that, everything is the same.
Erin's shrimp creole
A couple of people have been asking me for my shrimp creole recipe, so I figured that I would write it up while a pot of NOLA-style black eyed peas stews for a few hours. Since I cooked it for Erin, she gets the naming rights. So without much ado, here it is: This is my take on shrimp creole. There are so many versions of this recipe, so here's another. Personally, I don't like shrimp creoles made from a roux. That's more like a shrimp sauce piquant in my book. Rouxs are typical of Cajun cuisine. Shrimp Creole is creole NOLA cuisine — not Cajun. This is why the two dishes are separate in my mind, and why mine isn't made from a roux. I could be totally off base here, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Richard's Red Beans and Rice
While most of my recipes posted here have been finished products (more or less), this one is still in flux. I'm going to keep tweaking things here and there. So be sure to check back frequently! Anyway, here's my stab at a red beans and rice recipe. It's mainly for Stephanie's friend Krysten who asked me for one. If anyone asks, this is my personal adaptation of the gumbopages.com recipe, John Folse's recipe, and my own accoutrements.
Saints tailgate jambalaya
Earlier this month, the Saints played the 49ers at Candlestick Park (and won). Naturally, every NOLA native in the area crawled out of the woodwork and showed up in force to tailgate. My addition to the tailgate party was some jambalaya. I thought it was pretty decent, and others really loved it, so here's the recipe. It's pretty simple and anyone should be able to whip it up. In fairness, a large part of this is a rendition on Jason Dean's recipe, with my touches added. Then again, it's jambalaya — there's pretty much only one way of making it. Anyway, here goes with instructions and pics.

Take the Google Fiber Tour in The Silicon Prairie (aka Kansas City)
Posted Jan 24th 2014 02:43 PMUpdated Jan 24th 2014 02:51 PM
A result of Google Fiber choosing Kansas City to launch its first ultra-high-speed Internet service, this part of flyover country is now known in tech circles as The Silicon Prairie. Collins booked his room on Airbnbn and paid $39 a night.
Your fiber tour starts at the Google Fiber Space at 1814 Westport Road. The showroom is basically a huge, cozy living room where you can sit and watch TV brought to you through Google Fiber. You can play with the laptops and tablets provided, or bring your own and sit at the counters with dozens of electrical outlets to keep you charged. Friendly--but slightly geeky staff--roam the room to answer questions. But otherwise, kick back, relax and surf for a while.
Google Fiber's next cities are Austin, Texas and Ogden, Utah. But right now, the fastest city in the country is Kansas City.

We have a mixed environment of pc/mac/linux users and we have run into a problem importing email addresses into Zimbra 7.1. If I take a user's exported CSV, TXT, OML, etc.. containing their email addresses and then try to import it into Zimbra (web mail or desktop), I get an error of "Not allowed to import to root folder for this type".
It would seem logical to change the destination folder to somewhere other than the address book root, but I cannot because the destination folder for the import is greyed out.
Anyone else run into this problem? I am hoping I am just missing something obvious for the fix.

Where to Eat in San AntonioSteaks, barbecue, crisp salads, seafood, fine French, Italian and Asian cuisine: A more fitting question isn't where to eat in San Antonio, rather how do you choose from so many amazing selections?

Surely if MG were serious about the constructors title then they would stick an experienced driver in the car to bring it home in the points look at neate last year how many points did he bring to the team?
When you have 2 honda's coming home high in the points in every race then you can't afford to have only 1 MG scoring consistently until this happens I can't see MG bringing home the constructors title any time soon.

I just got this bike and so far I think the 11-28T cassette is a little too wide of a range and would like something with closer steps. The problem certainly could be (probably is) me and not the cassette as I'm not in shape yet but I also like to tinker and fix things that don't need fixing.
Now according to the spec sheet on my bike I have a Shimano shifter and chain, SRAM cassette, and Xero hubs. There obviously must be some sort of standard in place for all these parts from different manufacturers to work together, but I'm assuming there must be limitations to these standards as well.
Based on suggestions I've gotten from another thread I think I'd like to try a 12-25T cassette. It would appear according to this site that I happened across that my stock SRAM is compatible with most Shimano equipment. The c-c spacing is the same but the cogs on the Shimano are 0.02mm thinner which sounds like a very small difference to me plus already having a Shimano chain I don't anticipate any compatibility issues in that respect.
At this point I'm eyeing a Ultegra 6500 12-25T and aside from the mentioned compatibility worries, I'm also unsure about quality. These apparently have something called "Hyperglide" which says it provides smoother shifting. Does my SRAM have the same "technology" but by a different buzz term or is the Ultegra better? My SRAM from time to time (not sure if it's specific to some combination but usually when shifting down) tends to jump and gives me a little jerk. Not a big issue but I'm really trying to baby my knees as I've had problems in the past so anything smoother would be welcome.

|Ever wondered what fresh Okporoko looks like? well, wonder no more. Here is Fresh Okporoko/panla .
This post is more of a "Know Your food note" than a recipe post. I will feature some ingredients that I believe deserve proper introduction every now and again.
**if you have any suggestions on ingredients to feature, please let me know in the comment form..pretty/Handsome pleaseeee** **
Okporoko among southern Nigerians, Panla among Western Nigerians. This delicacy originally start out as fresh Cod fish (usually) in Norwegian waters. Stockfish is Norway's longest sustained export commodity.
Dried cod has two different variations, salted and unsalted. the salted version (Clipfish) is called Kako in Ghana, the unsalted version (Stockfish) is what is commonly used in Nigerian dishes. History has it that Salted Cod fish was originally part of the provisions given to slaves in the Caribbean, most had to go without fresh meat or fish, various salted fish recipes developed on the Island over the years.
Cod is dried by cold air and wind on wooden racks on the foreshore, it is cured in a process called fermentation where cold adapted bacteria matures the fish, similar to the maturing process of cheese. It takes between 3-6months for stockfish to get fully processed. Nigeria, Italy and Croatia are the biggest importer of stockfish in the world.
Cod boasts remarkable nutritional properties: it contains over 18% protein,besides being an excellent low-calorie source of protein (a four-ounce serving of cod provides 52.1% of the daily need for protein for only 119 calories) Cod is a tasty delicacy.
Grades : There are three main grades for most species of stockfish: Prime, Second and Tipo B (African quality).
- The prime grade is the best quality, The fish is usually of the leanest variety , free from faults and blemishes.
- Second grade is usually fish that has not been subjected to prime weather conditions, It may have small, but not serious blemishes.
- Anything that doesn't meet the criteria of either prime or second grade is lumped into the Tipo B category.
Knowing what you are buying is an art in itself, there are at least 12 different grades of "Prime class' , 5 of "second class", and then the African quality.
As if understanding the grades isn't hard enough, you also have to be sure you are actually buying "Cod", majority of the stockfish available in the Nigerian market are not made of Cod, they are made from either Pollock, Whitefish, ling, Haddock or Tusk which are more widely available, less time consuming and a lot cheaper. If you are bent on getting the best quality Cod fish, I think you might have to buddy up with one of the fish sellers in the market, they know best.

How to Calculate the Diameter of a Circle
Three Methods:Calculation HelpCalculating the Diameter of a Circle Using the Radius, Circumference, or AreaCalculating the Diameter of a Circle from a Drawing of a CircleCommunity Q&A
Calculating a circle's diameter is easy if you know any of the other dimensions of the circle: the radius, the circumference, or the area. It's also possible if you don't know any of the above dimensions but you do have a drawing of the circle. If you want to know how to calculate the diameter of a circle, just follow these steps.
Calculation Help
Method 1
Calculating the Diameter of a Circle Using the Radius, Circumference, or Area
1If you know the radius of the circle, double it to get the diameter. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. For example, if the radius of the circle is 4 cm, then the diameter of the circle is 4 cm x 2, or 8 cm.
2If you know the circumference of the circle, divide it by π to get the diameter. π is equal to approximately 3.14 but you should use your calculator to get the most accurate results. For example, if the circumference of the circle is 10 cm, then the diameter is 10 cm/π, or 3.18 cm.
3If you know the area of the circle, divide the result by π and find its square root to get the radius; then multiply by 2 to get the diameter. This goes back to manipulating the formula for finding the area of a circle, A = πr2, to get the diameter. You can transform this into r = √(A/π) cm. For example, if the area of the circle is 25 cm2, divide that by π and find the square root. This equals cm 2.82cm, so the diameter of the circle is 2.82 x 2 = 5.64cm.
Method 2
Calculating the Diameter of a Circle from a Drawing of a Circle
1Draw a horizontal line inside the circle from one edge to the other. Use a ruler or a straight edge to do this. It can be at the top, near the bottom, or anywhere in between.
2Label the points where the line crosses the circle points "A" and "B."
3Draw two overlapping circles, one using A as the center and the other using B as the center. Be sure the two circles overlap like a Venn diagram.
4Draw a vertical line through the two points at which the circles intersect. This line marks the diameter of the circle.
5Measure the diameter. Measure it using a ruler, or for greater accuracy, a pair of digital calipers. You're done!

- Familiarize yourself with the use of a compass (the drawing tool, not the direction-finder). This is a very useful instrument in many applications, including drawing a circle's diameter, as outlined above. A divider (an instrument similar to a compass) can sometimes be used in such cases.
- Using geometrical formulas and equations gets easier with practice. Ask for help from someone who has worked with circles or any other geometrical figures. You're likely to find that questions of geometry will seem less challenging with a little experience.
