Study finds Beaumont is a leader in ID manipulation
A May 4 article in the Wall Street Journal ranks Beaumont as No. 1 – but not in opportunity or culture, as elected officials would perhaps like to see, but rather as the capital for incidences of identity manipulation. Beaumont, according to a report compiled and released by ID Analytics, leads the nation in per-capita identity-manipulation attempts, which is slightly different than identity theft, according to researchers working on the report – but no less a crime.
"What we're looking at here is a very specific kind of identity fraud – different than identity theft, but still very similar," ID Analytics chief technology officer Stephen Coggeshall told The Examiner. "Fraudsters are taking their own information and altering it to get products and services. Sometimes they end up with an identity that already belongs to someone; other times it just is stealing from the business they are trying to defraud. Either way, there is a victim. And the victim is sometimes society as a whole."
Detective JoAnn Jacobs of the Property Division in Criminal Investigations at the Beaumont Police Department, said, "Identity theft is a broad problem – they'll steal your information, your stuff off the Internet, anything they can get their hands on." With identity manipulation, "someone will use a routing number and account number that's good, and put different names on the check. One had a name misspelled and the street name was spelled different – the people actually lived in Tomball and the checks were circulated here in Beaumont."
According to Coggeshall, when thieves are able to steal products, services, or credit from institutions or businesses without there being a way for the entities to recoup their losses because they don't know who it was that stole the goods in the first place, higher costs and overhead is passed on to paying consumers. Coggeshall said fraudsters typically accomplish altering their identity by using false names, Social Security numbers, addresses or dates of birth.
To produce the report, Coggeshall and researchers with ID Analytics sifted through 100 million applications for new accounts (about one-third of all new accounts) and 1,000 three-digit metropolitan zip codes to render a conclusion. Of the 1,000 zip codes analyzed, representing the entire U.S., Beaumont shined above the rest when the data was read.
"You really do have a high amount of identity manipulation going on – I don't know if there is a few individuals or a lot of individuals doing it," Coggeshall said. "Beaumont is close to the southern border, close to the Gulf Coast and you have this federal correctional complex; we frequently see this type of thing emanate from prisons."In fact, Beaumont's "777" zip code was No. 1 on the list of the nation's top metropolitan areas for identity manipulation, but the city's "776" zip code also made the Top 20. Other cities to make the list twice were New Orleans, Detroit and Houston.
Coggeshall said identity manipulators don't usually target specific individuals, but rather "accidentally" use someone else's Social Security number, birth date, name or address.
"Who's the victim? In this case, a couple people are harmed," Coggeshall said. "The bank is harmed because they will not be able to collect and the business that gave that product is harmed. Also whoever's ID is inadvertently used is also harmed.
"It's a real hassle for the people's whose information they actually use."
The Beaumont Police Department has reported that the city has been plagued with identity theft-related crimes, but according to Jacobs, cases of identity manipulation are seldom reported to the police department, and if they are, can be very hard to investigate.
With manipulators, the cases sometimes hit a brick wall called the federal government. Such is the case with the dozens of instances reported to Beaumont police regarding fraudsters stealing identities and filing false claims with the IRS.
"We're not able to get the Social Security numbers and such so the IRS investigates all that. …The IRS doesn't give us this information," she said. Furthermore, Jacobs added, "it would seem like the victims in these types of offenses may be more likely to be large businesses. For instance, large banks or credit card companies that – due to them having their own fraud units – most likely do not report incidents to local police agencies."
The Beaumont IRS office is currently only open only 6 days a month with limited hours, but Jacobs said new cases are brought to BPD on a regular basis claiming IRS identity theft.
Coggeshall said of the millions of applications that contained manipulated identification, some were successful and others were not.
"These are fraud attempts – there are varying levels of success. Some of these were caught, and others were successful," he said. "Enough of these get through so that (the criminals) keep doing it."
According to Coggeshall, everyone should be vigilant about protecting their identity so as not to fall victim – especially in the identification manipulation capital of America."Be very careful about your Social Security number and date of birth," he cautioned. "You also ought to watch your mail, maybe subscribe to ID theft monitoring services, and be very vigilant about keeping track of your credit. "
Coggeshall said his company offers a Web site where guests can put in information and see if they are at risk, www.myidscore.com. This will show, he said, "Whether or not they should be worried about their information."
"When you have someone doing systematic fraud in one area," he said as a word of warning to Beaumonters, "you are definitely at risk for them committing fraud in another area as well."

How Seven CEOs will Change the Food Industry
Fourteen of the 15 largest food companies have changed CEOs in the past three years. Heres a look at how seven of them will change the food industry.
Apparently it's been a tough couple of years for the heads of U.S. food and beverage companies. Since Brenda Barnes took over at Sara Lee Corp. in February 2005, 14 of the 15 largest companies (as identified by the Food Processing Top 100 list) have new CEOs. Only Dean Foods' Gregg Engles has held onto his job … and maybe that's because he's also chairman and probably the largest shareholder.
These are turbulent times. Costs for fuel oil and cooking oil are skyrocketing. Prices of raw materials, ingredients and packaging are spiraling. There appears to be a worldwide food shortage — which perhaps has been quieting last year's clamor that processed foods and beverages are the cause of worldwide obesity.
Add to that a slowdown in the U.S. economy, and it's hard for a food company to make a buck these days.
On the other hand, if any industry is recession-proof, it's the food industry. People still have to eat, although they appear to be eating out less and possibly switching to cheaper store brands. All of which makes maintaining brand relevance one of the biggest challenges for today's CEOs.
"Consumer staples companies and food companies in particular generate tremendous cash flow, and that's how a stock should be viewed," says Steven Ralston, marketing analyst at Chicago-based Zacks Investment Research, who refers to food and beverage companies as "moneymaking machines."
"They are slow growth companies, mid-single-digit to high-single-digit on average, generate high cash flow, decent earnings and pay out decent dividends. This has not gone unnoticed. Warren Buffet has acquired a large position in Kraft Foods and Anheuser-Busch, which is in play right now."
These are certainly challenging times for CEOs, says Dennis Krause, senior vice president and industry leader in food, beverage and agribusiness for GE Corporate Lending, Norwalk, Conn. "The past 18 months [have seen] unprecedented commodity price increases across the board. We have seen doubling or tripling of historical levels of commodity costs. The 40-year average of corn is around $2.40 a bushel. Today it trades upwards of $6 a bushel.
"I think one of the challenges to large-cap company CEOs is what will happen to market share, because the economy determines how people eat – eating out less – but households are still working two jobs, so that puts a premium on convenience and on-the-go food," says Krause. "That creates an opportunity for value brands, private label brands that present a better value for consumers.
"When a company is small or middle market and times get squeezed, promotional dollars are the first to go," says Krause. "For large industry leaders, it presents an opportunity for CEOs to take advantage and spend to gain share of consumer dollars. With their balance sheets, they can withstand it and squeeze out companies that are not well capitalized. I liken it to a barbell – the leading brands (No. 1 and No 2) are on one end of the barbell along with value private label products. The sub-tier brands (No. 4 or No. 5) are on the other end. The environment is very dynamic and fluid and driven by cost increases."
Despite the flurry of new faces, most of the CEOs we profile here replaced longtime company leaders. Stephen Sanger put in 34 years at General Mills, for example. It remains to be seen if the new guys will have the same longevity. One thing for sure, they all appear to have been given the mandate of change. So with this many new faces, the whole food industry will evolve in the coming years.
Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo Inc.
Pepsi's entrepreneurial, non-bureaucratic, risk-oriented environment has nurtured many talented executives, including a handful of CEOs who now are at other food companies: Irene Rosenfeld (chairman/CEO at Kraft), Brenda Barnes (chairman/CEO at Sara Lee), Gary Rodkin (CEO at ConAgra), as well as others who have gravitated to other fields.
One who didn't get away is Indra K. (Krishnamurthy) Nooyi, who became the fifth CEO in PepsiCo's 41-year history in October 2006. Born and educated in India, Nooyi moved to the U.S. in 1978 to earn a master's degree from Yale University. She joined PepsiCo, Purchase, N.Y., which claims to be the world's largest convenient food and beverage company, in 1994.
Named CFO in 2001, she helped spin off Pepsi's restaurants into Yum! Brands and the company-owned bottling operations into Pepsi Bottling Group. She was instrumental in the $3.3 billion acquisition of Tropicana in 1998. And she led negotiations on the $13.8 billion PepsiCo merger with Quaker Oats in 2001.
Her reward was a seat on the board and the title of president, placing her in line to succeed CEO Steve Reinemund, who already was turning PepsiCo from a soda company to an international food and beverage company stressing health and wellness in new product development.
As president and CFO from 2000 to 2008, Nooyi was credited by analysts with transforming the company's global strategy when both Coke and Pepsi faced a challenging environment in their core market for carbonated soft drinks, as more health-conscious consumers switched to juices and water.
Since becoming CEO (only 2 percent of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are women), Nooyi has reorganized PepsiCo to accommodate international growth by dividing operating units into PepsiCo International, PepsiCo Americas Foods and PepsiCo Americas Beverages. She doubled her executive team to 29, and wants better nutrition to be part of PepsiCo's DNA.
Acquisitions are Nooyi's mantra, analysts say, and mostly in the health and wellness sector — but so far, the company has only gone after Naked Juice in the U.S. and a handful of Eastern European companies. Joint ventures with Lipton and Starbucks are bringing new beverage opportunities to the table.

In a feel good and somewhat bizarre story, Matt Taylor who took a beating on a pathetic Chivas USA team in the inaugural season of the league and most recently a standout for amateur celebrity side Hollywood United has signed in the German Bundesliga. "Taylor has been training with Koblenz for the last 10 days," head coach Uwe Rapolder told Yanks Abroad. "He was in the lineup for a test match against SSV Merten." Koblenz is a Bundesliga 2 side.
I've always liked Matt Taylor and I think this is another case of managers in MLS and USL not knowing how to use a guy. Taylor was serviceable on Chivas USA but in 2005 the side was so inept that Taylor became a beating doll. Taylor also played for the Portland Timbers before ending up on Hollywood United.

A year before his death Einstein expressed in a hand written letter his views rejecting the existence of god as childish superstition. In the same letter he espoused that the Jewish people of whom he gladly belonged were nonetheless no more chosen nor special than any other. That letter is now up for auction on eBay. Per the article:
Einstein handwrote the letter in German to Jewish philosopher Eric B. Gutkind on Jan. 3, 1954, a year before Einstein's death. The letter was a response to Gutkind's book "Choose Life: The Biblical Call to Revolt" (1952, H. Schuman; 1st edition). In part of his letter, Einstein writes, "For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people....In a March 24, 1954 letter, he is quoted as writing, "It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." However, in the letter to Gutkind, Einstein wrote the word God was "nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish."

Nice. I wouldn't put it past some wealthy religious person or group to purchase the letter and then ceremoniously destroy it.
I never thought of that. I hope there are copies of it.

What about 102 ?
Yes. SB102 and SB103/105 were designed for the Nikonos V system. SB101 was designed for the Nikonos IVa and SB104 for the Nikonos RS, although also works well on the Nikonos V.
Many newer strobes will give TTL flash with a Nikonos V, also.

I looked at the Morris units long ago. I when with Ikelites (Ai/A100). The older ikes work well with the Nikonos V and Nikon film cameras. I have been meaning to sell the two remaining Ais, 3 battery packs, and two chargers. I don't think it is worth shipping them from the USA to Italia.

I looks in perfect working order, i'll check the capacitors in case i can change them i should not be big deal with some soldering skills.
Morris units are getting very old. Before buying you want to check whether it can be repaired/serviced - I doubt it and even if it can I'd suspect it wouldn't be economic. The capacitors will probably have lost some capacity which might affect output.

We have just come back from a great week in Chamonix. As beginners we were advised by Iglu to book into a chalet. Good advice. The accommodation/rooms are very basic with not much room to dry stuff, but the bathrooms have recently been refurbished to a good modern standard, so 2 things make Sapiniere - the wonderful location opposite the nursery slopes with breathtaking views, and the staff. As total beginners I would advise to play/learn on the slopes of Le Tour at Domaine de Balme (a 30 min bus ride away). I would also advise to leave the blue slopes next to Stade on Brevent until the end as they are more like reds (well - we thought so!). However, the views are stunning and worth going up for the Apres. The bus network is easy to use and navigate, so make the effort to get about. 5 minute walk into Chamonix where there are a range of bars and places to eat as well as numerous ski shops. Back to Sapiniere; we received a warm welcome from a friendly hard working team. They are a credit to Resort/Iglu and made us feel very welcome and looked after.

Summer reading programs: a fun and educational way for kids to keep busy
- Written by ARA
(ARA) — Motivating your children to read during the summer can be a daunting task. After all, once school lets out, the last thing most kids want to think about is more books.
However, studies show that children who read several books during the summer maintain or surpass the reading skills developed during the previous school year. The key is to find ways to motivate kids to read during the lazy days of summer - and to make it fun.
From incorporating movie watching into their summer reading routine to rewarding them with trips to the water park, you can find many ways to give kids the incentive to read during the summer.
Give kids an incentive to read
Just telling your kids that their grades will be better next year by reading during the summer won't work. Children often need something tangible to motivate them to do something that might be farther down their list than other summer activities. There are several summer reading programs available, such as TD Bank's Summer Reading Program, that offer rewards. TD Bank's program rewards kids with $10 for reading 10 books over the summer, with the money deposited into a new or existing Young Saver bank account. More about the program can be found at www.tdbank.com/summerreading.
You can also offer kids incentives that show them the benefits of hard work. Incorporate a bonus into their weekly allowance — one book per week equals a certain amount of bonus allowance. Or set a total goal that, if reached, will reward them with that long-sought video game, pair of athletic sneakers or trip to their favorite restaurant or amusement park.
Another motivational tool is to choose books that have been made into movies, like "Twilight" or "Harry Potter," says Elizabeth K. Warn, president of the TD Charitable Foundation and senior vice president of community development for TD Bank.
"Watch the movies after your child has read the book and compare and contrast the differences," says Warn. "If the movie is out in theatres during the summer, use a trip to the movies as extra motivation to read the books."
Be proactive in their reading programs
Just like homework, sometimes kids need that extra push to meet their summer reading goals. When time permits, sit down with your child while he or she is reading and help with difficult words or phrases by having them read out loud. This helps reduce frustration, especially for very young readers.
Another way to keep your kids excited about summer reading is to turn the experience into a group "play date." Coordinate with other parents in your neighborhood to create a summer reading book club and take turns coordinating the reading sessions weekly, biweekly or monthly throughout the summer.
Incorporate family activities into kids' summer reading
Like most families, you probably have a family vacation scheduled at some point during the summer. Leading up to your vacation, try to find books at your local library or book store that tell stories about the area where you will be vacationing. If you are planning a family day trip to the zoo or beach, find books about animals or beach activities. Finally, find ways to have fun discussions with your kids about the books they are reading. Ask plenty of questions to get them talking about the characters, stories and what they liked or disliked about the books. The key, again, is to stay involved and find ways to motivate your kids.

If you want to upload an album or songs to this section of the site, please ensure that it's not already on a physically available CD or one that's slated for future release on CD. By that we mean the actual Disc with artwork and packaging which you can physically hold in your hands.
To check on that availability, most often but not always on independent labels, the best sources are reputable music traders like JB Hi Fi, Sydney's Red Eye Records & Timewarp's mail order division and for major label releases only, Sanity. Also check an artist's or a record label's online website ie Aztec Music, Raven or Canetoad Records. If you're still unsure then please ASK as someone is sure to know.
The minimum bitrate to upload at is 256kbps but must be 320 if ripping the music yourself. Lower bit rates may only be accepted if there truly is no other option ie you are a 2nd or 3rd party . Many would disagree, but it's sometimes better to have something of extreme rarity in poor quality than not at all. But again ask if someone has a better rip before uploading your inferior one.
Artwork is highly desired but not a pre-requisite when uploading as someone in the group may be able to provide it later if you can't e.g. you have no scanner. However in all cases when posting an album in the discussion forum, please let us know if the CD art is included or not. If it is then is it
(a) the full artwork CD ready ie front & back cover scans, any gatefold inserts and tray insert. For best results we recommend scanning all 4 corners of L.P. covers before stitching so all information on the cover is available.
(b) just front & back only with no tray insert
(c) or just front cover scan only. The latter is to be discouraged completely unless you intend providing the back scan later. In which case wait till then & upload both.
ALWAYS: If providing art, please also list it as A SEPARATE LINK even if it is included with the main music file. This is so that others who only need the art don't have to download 80-100 mg of music they already own to get it.
Lastly, we appreciate that some here do have difficulty in stitching the scans together, so it is initially acceptable to upload unstitched scans. Someone may help & do the job for you, uploading these at a later stage. However it is strongly suggested that you keep practicing your own skills .
Hi Todd, My brother has (or did have) both these albums on vinyl. He actually alerted me to the existence of this site, so I'll ask him if he still has them and see if he can upload them for you.
Hi Gronk
You are correct mate, the self titled release was a 13 track album released in 1980. Nonethless thanks also to Rob for the 1983 EP. There was also a shared 1980 EP with the Jukes called "Top of the Class" and 2 singles "Summer" / "Just Don't Care" & "New Blood" / "At This Point In Time"
All of the shared EP tracks & singles are also on the album & all issued on Result Records. Ecrob's EP tracks are not n the album
So thanks again mate. But about that ST album.....???? Anyone got it??
BTW Zoot fans may be interested to know that this was drummer Rick Brewer's last major band of note after he joined fellow ex Ferrets Dave Springfield & Ric Petropolis to form the band with Kenny
Motivaters - After The fall EP
for Gronk and Micko
I also have the Top of The Class EP if needed
Thank-you Rob, you are a legend! I don't think I've heard any of this before, and it sounds pretty good.
Thanks as well to Micko for the info. Good to know that the album is out there somewhere.

Hi Micko, Is Daryl Braithwaites album 'Taste The Salt' okay to post?
Sorry I'm so late responding Brett
Yep, upload Braithwaite's Taste The Salt album as the Rajon label, who issued all of "The Great..." CD sets has been defunct for nearly a year now
And Richard Pleasance was the main songwriter for one of the 80's biggest and best Aussie bands Boom Crash Opera". So it's certainly eligible. Look forward to them both
Cheers & thanks for the offer
Just enquiring whether anyone might have Colourblind by Richard Pleasance (his second solo album. Thanks.
Yes, i have his second album 'ColourBlind' which includes the song 'Love Is All'. I will look at posting it for you.
thanks Brett
hi guys
I have been looking for The Delltones - Bop Til Ya Drop for such a long time now, I seriously think it is out of print. If anyone can help out with this request it would be great.
And to the site admin, great work keep it up. Definately a trip down memory lane!!
Hey Kelvin
I do have this on vinyl but it hasn't been ripped. I do know that my local library has a copy on CD tho. So as I have to go in there tomorrow anyway I'll grab it then
So no long to wait
Anyone have either of theses "Mr. Lee Grant" or "Mr. Lee in London" huge in NZ in the sixties.
Does anyone have a copy of Kevin Bennett/James Gillard - "Two".
While these days they are firmly rooted in the earthy sounds of alternative country with The Flood, Bennett once served time in Moving Pictures and sang with Icehouse while James Gillard was with Western Flyer and Mondo Rock.
The CD came out in 2002 but has been deleted for some years. I have tried so hard to get this album so any assistance would be very appreciated.
Any body got any of these albums by Melbourne band of the 1990's "Velvet Hammer"?
Baby is a Psycho 1990
Exploding Head Syndrome 1995
Flesh Fetish Factor 1997
Hi George, 'Boy From The Stars' should be still available.
By chance, has anyone ripped a copy of "Twilight Time" by The Twilights which contained some of their concert recordings?
I believe it was released on vinyl by Raven about 1982.
I know this one is a real stretch, but does anyone have access to Beyond The Planets from about 1985 featuring Kevin Peek?
It's a rock interpretation of Holst's The Planets.
The cover credits the album to Jeff Wayne - Rick Wakeman - Kevin Peek and is often listed around the internet as being a Wakeman album. Jeff Wayne's contribution is limited to composing the intro, and Rick Wakeman only plays on 3 of the 8 tracks, with a composer credit for the fanfare at the end.
Kevin Peek is featured throughout on guitar and possibly some of the keyboards. The album also features Kevin's old mate Trevor Spencer on drums. Despite this it usually doesn't appear on KP related discographies (for instance on the Sky fansite which lists other KP albums).
It was recorded in WA and Wakeman's participation probably came about when he performed with Sky on an Aus tour. It was issues on a small UK label Telstar that usually only does el cheapo compilations
Dell Dudenhoeffer - My Life
Any chance that any of you moguls have this in your hiddings. I know it should be among the rarest from Australia but i also know that there was a reissue on vinyl made in 2008. So i ask hopefully and hope i get lucky.
Hi Micko, et al!
It is a while since I have been here. The new look website is great.
I am trying to find a fairly recent album 'Tension Release' (1991) by Australian Jazz Fusion outfit Crossfire. Would anyone have a copy for upload, please?
Hi people
Looking for a rare and hard to find Adrian Campbell's (Avalanche) album:
Adrian's Wall 1987
Adrian Campbell, Robert Dillon, Steve Donald, Peter Finn, Brett Garsed, Larry Groves, Brian Hamilton, Joe Imbroll.
Thanks in advance!
Hi there verbatim, I have the Adrian's Wall single "Reach Out (I'll Be There)", a remake of the Four Tops classic which I can upload but I too would prefer to have the album if anyone has it
Here's hoping
Anybody have GANGgajang-gangAGAIN ripped? If not I have the vinyl and can rip it as long as it is out of print and unavailable (I cannot see it available on their website).
Thanks for this & the Crossfire albums RobynB. It's fntastic that you're able to contribute musically as well as wit thanks
I wonder if you'd mind posting these links on 2 separate threads of their own. I could do it for you but you desreve the credit of course. The only other thing I might ask is that you upload to Megaupload please. You'll have noticed that 99.9% of posts here are with that provider, for the simple fact that they last 2-3 years while on rapidshare it can be as litle as a a few weeks, which usually necessitates reposting by someone
Anyway when I do my cleanout of this thread as i do every so often, I can delete the posts relating to them, while at the same time, leaving open the possibilty that someone may have Crossfire ripped from CD
Many thanks for your contributions
Thanks for the obscure bits that have been posted date.
I'm after a couple of albums from 1982 & 1983.
Jo Jo Zep - Cha
Sharon O'Neill - Foreign Affairs.
Both of which I don't believe are available on CD anywhere, however I stand corrected.
THANKS a million RobyB !!!
You're a Star
Hi Grado (& Grunt )

There is alos an "Essential' CD & a DVD Collections but that seems to be all
So if you would like to hlp, Grunt me old mate, by all means do so. Perhaps starting with the 80's albums tho
Thanks for the offer of help mate
Hey, I'm after The Radiators - Scream of The Real.
Can't find it listed anywhere, so assume it's long deleted. Can anyone help with this one please?
Although this album is from the nineties, the members are ex Boom Crash Opera, Serious Young Insects, Uncanny X-Men from the eighties. So I hope it is within guidelines.
This album appears not to be currently available except on Ebay secondhand. Does anyone have it or know where it might be available?
Hiya mcphert...
I don't have the album but I just noticed a single from Horsehead on the Friday On My Mind blog, She Fell To Earth.
Not sure if you have that one or not but it has 2 tracks on it that are not on the album anyway.

The Securities Division of the office of Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander, in a press conference held at the Old Post Office Building, St. Louis, late Thursday morning (April 4), announced that they will be issuing a cease and desist order against Morgan Keegan & Co., Inc., of Tennessee state — the firm that sold the bonds for the failed Mamtek sweetener factory in Moberly.
Kander's office alleges that the company failed to adequately investigate the "feasibility of Mamtek's business plan" and to disclose risks for bond purchase to investors in the company.
"The petition my office filed alleges that, without Morgan Keegan's involvement, this failed investment would not have cost Missouri investors more than $6.5 million," Kander said. "Companies have a duty to disclose the risks of stocks and bonds before their clients invest, and our Securities Division will continue to make sure that these companies do business in a responsible, ethical way in Missouri."
A written statement from Kander's office says that "Morgan Keegan misrepresented that Mamtek was operating a facility in China that was actively producing sucralose," and that "it is unclear if the facility ever existed or produced sucralose, but it was not producing sucralose in the summer of 2010, as Morgan Keegan could easily have verified."
The company also allegedly assured investors that their bond payments were secure because of Mamtek's "patents."
Mamtek holds no patents.
"The principal patent application supporting Mamtek's sucralose process was preliminarily denied in 2008 and finally denied in May 2010, two months before Morgan Keegan began selling the bonds," Kander's office said.
Morgan Keegan allegedly told investors that the City of Moberly had promised to pay back these bonds if Mamtek failed, when, in fact, no such guarantee was every made. Such was said, instead, to garner sales.
The City of Moberly issued $39 million in bonds to finance the construction of the Mamtek facility at the locale of its now semi-vacant property shell.
Morgan Keegan made approximately $2.5 million for its role in the bond offering.
In order to make the required payments on their bonds, Moberly was to use moneys Mamtek paid from the operation of the sucralose facility in the city. Morgan Keegan "helped Moberly issue the bonds, prepared the offering, immediately purchased them upon issuance, and then resold them to the public."
Kander's office's petition claims that the company neglected to disclose information regarding Mamtek's condition, financially, as well as its ability to, and experience with, constructing sucralose facilities. Morgan Keegan did not follow up on claims regarding sales contracts and "letters of interest" Mamtek obtained regarding its product.
"Many problems existed with the offering," Kander said, "and if Morgan Keegan had done its due diligence and investigated the feasibility of Mamtek's business plan, we would not be in this situation. An appropriate investigation by the firm would have raised enough questions about the Mamtek offering to, at the very least, prevent investor losses."
Kander's cease and desist order "prevents Morgan Keegan from omitting material facts when selling bonds and from failing to adequately investigate bond offerings." It also "seeks full restitution, civil penalties, fees and costs" associated with the Mamtek failure.

I've seen no less than three articles today saying that the average consumer is paying too much for their smartphone plan. And it just may be true. This article by consumer reports states that the average ATT user goes through 300MB or less each month.
Meaning they could drop from the $30 plan to the $20 plan and be fine. That would be $120 savings a year. Spread over two years, $200+ to spend on an upgrade phone might not be bad.
But here at Androidandme we're not the "average user" are we? How much data do you use? I'm on Sprint. I average about 2.5GB per month, and the most I have ever used is 4GB.
What do you use? Could you save money by switching to a tiered plan?
And most importantly for the average user… is it more clear that the carriers are charging too much? Verizon doesn't even offer a plan for less than two gigs. But if the average user is going through 10% of that… then they are far overpaying aren't they? What should data cost then?

The seeds of our ever-growing divisive political landscape can be traced to January 20, 2009. The day was Barack Obama�s inauguration, but it�s not what most of you are thinking. Instead, it was a meeting held at a restaurant on that very same day where the Republican elite gathered to discuss future strategies.
There is plenty of blame to go around.
One side points to the other while the other wags its finger(s) back.
However, the seeds of our ever-growing divisive political landscape can be traced to January 20, 2009. The day was Barack Obama�s inauguration, but it�s not what most of you are thinking. Instead, it was a meeting held at a restaurant on that very same day where the Republican elite gathered to discuss future strategies.
At this meeting, according to GOP strategist Robert Draper, the rise of extreme partisan politics was cemented. In attendance were all of the right-wing power brokers on the Hill � U.S. representatives Eric Cantor (Va.), Kevin McCarthy (Calif.), Paul Ryan (Wis.), Pete Sessions (Texas), Jeb Hensarling (Texas), Pete Hoekstra (Mich.) and Dan Lungren (Calif.), along with Republican senators Jim DeMint (S.C.), Jon Kyl (Ariz.), Tom Coburn (Okla.), John Ensign (Nev.) and Bob Corker (Tenn.).
Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and GOP speech writer Frank Luntz were also in at the meeting.
According to several sources, it is at this meeting where it was decided to disagree with everything coming from the White House. Not a few issues. Not the bad policies. Not some issues, but EVERYTHING.
Gingrich was quoted as saying, �You�ll remember this as the day the seeds of 2012 were sown.� Sen. Mitch McConnell took it step further, saying on the record in October 2010, that his party�s primary goal was to make Obama a one-term president.
Think about that for a second � he didn�t say �let�s do what�s right� or �let�s do what will help the people,� but �let�s get rid of Obama.�
Republicans on the Hill were instructed to trash every Obama bill on any and every media outlet in an attempt to sway the public. They also began running attack ads in May 2009, just two months after the inauguration, against anyone that had the audacity to support President Obama.
In the first month of the president�s administration, Obama went to the Hill in person, an unprecedented move, to meet with Republican leadership in hopes of establishing some bipartisan cooperation.
So what did he get for his efforts? Nothing. Actually, that�s incorrect � he got a preview of how the next few years would be in regard to the hatred-laced political slopes.
The unwillingness to work with the president is akin to a petulant child taking his ball and going home because he lost. Or maybe, its just Texas-sized egos run amok, which means the needs of the electorate has once again taken a back seat to what the �power boys of D.C.� want.
A serious argument can be made that the GOP�s unhealthy attacks on Obama have slowed our economic recovery. Obama�s American Jobs Act, which has been lauded by many economists for its potential job creation, has been held up by House and Senate Republicans for more than a year. Meanwhile, jobs are still difficult to find.
In the absence of a solid job growth agenda, have the Republicans offered any job-creating bills? Nope. However, Boehner and the rest of the Good Ole Boys love getting in front of camera and telling anyone that will listen how bad things are out there, but solutions don�t roll off their tongues quite so easily.
It�s much easier to talk bad about someone else�s plans than to actually have one of your own I suppose.
The thing about digging your heels in is that it causes the other side to do the same. We are at a critical time in our nation�s path. There are enormous decisions on the horizon, decisions that will require smart people willing to listen to all ideas and compromising to find the best solution. Standing with your lip poked out and talking bad about the other guy is not a solution. It is time to do what is best for our country.
So why is President Obama such a polarizing figure for the Right? I believe most of us truly know why. It�s certainly not because he is such a liberal. Obama is far more moderate than President Clinton.
It�s certainly not because of his military positions. Obama has given far greater latitude to CIA and drone attacks than even President Bush, so much so that many on the left are unhappy with his stance.
The culmination of the conservative�s disdain for the President has never more apparent in the comments over the nomination of Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense. Once again, showing that it�s the messenger and not the message, the right has attacked the choice.
The irony is that Hagel is one of theirs. He is a REPUBLICAN from Nebraska. Does it get anymore conservative than that?
Obama has shown how truly moderate he is by selecting several Republicans for cabinet positions. Exactly how many cabinet members from the other side of the aisle did his predecessor President George W. Bush place in his category you ask? One � Transportation Secretary Norman Y. Mineta.
Is that bipartisan cooperation?
So what is it? Why all the venomous hate for this president? Well � you do your own soul searching and do the math.

DeKALB – The attorney for fired Northern Illinois University Police Chief Donald Grady doesn't believe his handling of a rape case against one of his own officers is the only factor in his termination Tuesday.
Grady, who was lauded for his actions after the Feb. 14, 2008, shootings on the NIU campus, was fired Tuesday after being placed on paid administrative leave Nov. 10. That was eight days after DeKalb County Presiding Judge Robbin Stuckert ruled that Grady's department purposefully withheld witness statements favorable to Andrew Rifkin, an NIU police officer accused of raping a student off-campus and off-duty.
Charges against Rifkin have since been dropped; Rifkin has filed suit against NIU, Grady, and three other NIU police officers who investigated his case.
Grady had been chief since 2001, and earned a salary of $205,987 a year.
Grady's attorney Michael Fox pointed to the "coffee fund" investigation against eight NIU employees and one former employee. The nine people were criminally charged Oct. 16 after an investigation into an off-the-books repository for proceeds from the sale of university-owned scrap metal and other materials.
NIU police began their investigation into the "coffee fund" Aug. 3 and turned it over to the state's attorney's office Sept. 4, and the attorney general's office Sept. 5.
"Is President [John] Peters responsible for those nine individuals?" Fox asked. "Should he have known about that? Why is he treated any differently?"
Fox said university officials have no evidence that Grady knew his subordinate Lt. Kartik Ramakrishnan had placed two witness statements in Rifkin's personnel file instead of turning them over to the state's attorney. He called Grady's termination "very unjust."
Fox was critical of NIU Acting Director of Public Safety Bill Nicklas' handling of Grady's review and the letter of termination he wrote to his client. He said Nicklas had no basis for his findings.
"We asked [Nicklas] what evidence do you have that [Grady] knew? His answer was silence," Fox said. "I think we're entitled to something more than silence when you take the career of a man of chief Grady's status away."
In Nicklas' letter to Grady, he said he did not believe Grady's assertions that he wasn't involved with hiding those documents.
"While I do not find your denials to be credible, even if true, at a minimum, your failure to supervise departmental personnel in this important case represents sufficient cause for dismissal," Nicklas wrote.
Nicklas wrote that Grady knew, or should have known, that the evidence wasn't properly turned over to prosecutors. Grady also should have recognized that allowing NIU police to investigate one of its own officers exposed the department to allegations of a conflict of interest, the letter states.
Fox said one of the most alarming portions of the letter was the reference to university officials including later evidence supporting the termination if they were to find past misconduct after a review of Grady's laptop and thumb drive.
On Nov. 9, the night before he was placed on leave, Grady had an information technology specialist transfer files from the chief's laptop to the thumb drive, according to court testimony. The specialist said in court that he did not know what files he removed from Grady's computer other than documents related to Grady's book, "The Injustice of Justice."
Fox said Grady voluntarily surrendered both the laptop and the thumb drive to university officials, who have had two months to review the contents.
"We're terminating you and maybe we'll include some evidence we find down the road?" Fox said. "It's one of the most ridiculous reasons I've seen for a termination."
Nicklas' letter also states that when Grady learned that Ramakrishnan had placed the two witness statements in Rifkin's personnel file, he took no disciplinary action aside from reprimanding him.
Fox said that claim is also suspicious considering the university has nine employees who were charged with felonies in the "coffee fund" case and have received minimal if any disciplinary action from NIU officials.
Ramakrishnan remains on paid leave, and Darren Mitchell remains acting police chief.
Grady fired from NIU police department

Well, I see that people have figured out why I'm quitting AOSP.
There's no point being the maintainer of an Operating System that can't boot to the home screen on its flagship device for lack of GPU support, especially when I'm getting the blame for something that I don't have authority to fix myself and that I had anticipated and escalated more than 6 months ahead.
By the way, in this context, 'to escalate' means handing something over to your superiors so they can handle it. I believe this definition of the word is uncommon outside of the US.
The issue here is exactly what it sounds like: there are currently no factory images/binaries available for the latest Nexus device, the new Nexus 7. The problem is that the GPU in the new Nexus 7 is made by Qualcomm, a company which is incredibly hostile towards the open source community. This isn't the first time Qualcomm has sabotaged an AOSP launch - all Nexus devices with Qualcomm chips, the Nexus 1, 4, and the new 7, faced these problems.
Because he is apparently very good at pattern recognition, JBQ states that he already anticipated this issue six months ago, but that it hasn't been solved. A recent tweet from him is quite telling:
That feeling when lawyers sabotage the launch you spent 6 months working on? I haz it. Sad sad sad sad sad sad.
This is bad news for Google, and bad news for Android. JBQ has done an amazing job on AOSP, and I'm very sad to see him leaving his post. As of this moment, it's not yet known whether he will leave Google entirely or not.

To read all comments associated with this story, please click here.
Cheaper to license, maybe but separate chips takes up more room and battery. Look at the early LTE phones, battery life went up when everyone went to Qualcom.
Must be bad if Google went to them, TI got out, and Samsung and Nvidia seem to have their drive problems as well. Maybe that's why the Nexus 4 had it's LTE disabled? Makes you wonder if Google will still go with them for the next Nexus phone.
Either way this is bad for AOSP. It's disappointing that Having such a popular open source operating system(skip the "definition of open" replies please) hasn't improved the driver situation much.

God of War: Chains of Olympus is a prequel to the God of War series. It chronicles the various adventures of Kratos throughout the ten years he spent in servitude of the Gods (hence the game's name which implies a bond between the series' protagonist and the deities of Olympus) preceding the events of God of War.
The Official UK Playstation site reveals that, "Kratos will journey to lands that no mortal has ever walked upon. With the world plunged in eternal darkness and the gods rendered powerless, Kratos will face the most feared creatures of Greek mythology, and ultimately be forced to choose between his own personal redemption and saving the ancient world from certain destruction."
I never actually played God of war and only heard praises of it being the best action game on PS2. My interest has only recently been aroused, and now that the psp version is coming around the corner I've decided to give the series a shot. Kratos seems like a badass that could rival even Guts from Berserk. What surpised me is that IGN gave the game a review two weeks before it's even been released yet. Seeing as it got such a high rating, it's apparent to me that this is a must buy for the psp. Just wondering how many GOW fans are anticipating this title.

Pre-ordered my copy this past Tuesday after reading and watching the IGN review. Loved the games on the PS2, and this one will do the trick!

ISO is used by people who don't buy the games, like I for example. PSP must have special firmware though.
I believe in the "try, then buy" method, hence I wait for ISO (Shouldn't really be, seeing how God of War is so damn well reviewed). And I'm an extremely immoral, kitten-killing, and "scum to society" bastard. Aren't I optimistic

Lol, I bought my PSP but never really gave it any touch.. [I was crazy over Disgaea though.]
Looking forward to God of War and FFVII:CC.
I heard Elder Scrolls and Devil May Cry are coming to PSP, can somebody else back this rumour up?

Can someone tell me how the controls...control (i.e. are combos still usable with the PSP button scheme, etc.). If nothing else, it looks great.

I searched for reviews and was able to find out that the game is 5-7 hrs (based on what King Lycan read and what I read). I'm still planning to buy this, maybe this Friday, I really want to know more about Kratos back story, plus I know my lil'bro wants to play it too .
BTW... Out of curiosity, how much MB does an UMD hold?
My main concern with this game tho, is if there is any lag... based on the review I read, there is basicly no load times unless you were to backtrack and not go on with the story.

Hi, The drivers I am using I downloaded from the media build tree using "git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git" as suggested on the Linuxtv.org site. However, these appear to be 'old' drivers as I am still getting 2 frontend devices created for my card when I load them. Can anyone suggest how I can get the latest set of Manu Abraham's drivers which I believe may contain some later patches. Thanks, Mark.

(Human Rights Watch/IFEX) - 28 October 2012 - Saudi authorities should stop using the courts to prosecute and punish people for peaceful protest, Human Rights Watch said today.
On October 17, 2012, the Bureau of Investigation and Prosecution charged 19 men with "instigating chaos and sedition" and "gathering illegally" after they participated in a peaceful protest on September 23 outside Turfiya prison, in Qassim province in central Saudi Arabia. They were seeking the release of family members, some of whom have been held for years without charge. On October 18, a criminal court sentenced 15 of the men to between 3 and 15 days in prison, along with suspended sentences of between 50 and 90 lashes and suspended jail terms of between two and five months. The trial of the remaining four is scheduled for November 4.
"Instead of addressing the protesters' concerns, the Saudi government has used the judicial system to punish them," said Joe Stork, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. "The sentences handed to these men are part of a wider effort to target and harass activists across the country."
Authorities have not alleged that the protesters engaged in or called for violence. Witnesses who participated in the protest told Human Rights Watch that security forces blocked off protesters' access to food and water. Human Rights Watch examined video footage that protesters said was of the September 23 incident, which showed police beating demonstrators.
The Interior Ministry banned public protests on March 5, 2011. In a statement on October 12, the ministry warned that people should "refrain from staging rallies or taking part in any gathering or procession in violation of the law" and that those detained for doing so would be dealt with harshly.
Saudi authorities have cracked down on human rights activists for organizing peaceful demonstrations in various parts of the country, including Riyadh, the capital. In April, a Specialized Criminal Court sentenced Mohammed al-Bejadi, a co-founder of the Saudi Civil and Political Rights Association (ACPRA), to four years in prison on charges of "instigating demonstrations" and "speaking with foreign media channels." ACPRA has attempted to register as an independent association, but without success.
The court prevented al-Bejadi from appointing a lawyer of his choice and denied observers access to his trial. Several other founders of the group, including Mohammed Fahd al-Qahtani and Abdulla al-Hamid, are on trial before a Specialized Criminal Court on charges that include "harming the reputation of the kingdom" and, in the case of al-Hamid, "inciting disorder by drafting and publishing a statement calling for protests."
Fadhil Maki al-Manasif, a founding member of the Al Adala Center for Human Rights, is also being tried before a Specialized Criminal Court on charges of "withdrawing allegiance to the ruler" and "disrupting public order by participating in marches." He has been in detention since October 2, 2011, when security forces arrested him after he attempted to speak with police in the Eastern province city of Qatif about the detention of two elderly people whose sons were wanted for participation in protests.
Human Rights Watch has called on Saudi Arabia to abolish the Specialized Criminal Court, which was set up in 2008 to try terrorism cases but which authorities have increasingly used to prosecute peaceful dissidents on politicized charges and in proceedings that violate the right to a fair trial. Saudi Arabia has no codified criminal law, which has had the effect that judges criminalize acts in accordance with their interpretations of Islamic law.
The lack of clear and predictable criminal law violates international human rights principles prohibiting arbitrary arrest and guaranteeing fair trials. Article 11 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that, "No one shall be held guilty of any act or omission which did not constitute a penal offence, under national or international law, at the time when it was committed." International human rights standards, including the Arab Charter on Human Rights ratified by Saudi Arabia, also uphold the right to peaceful assembly and association.
"Saudi authorities detain and punish individuals for doing nothing more than peacefully expressing legitimate grievances," Stork said. "The Saudi government should stop using the judicial system to punish peaceful dissidents, and recognize that peaceful assembly is not a crime."

Black Friday is a day for burning off those Thanksgiving calories with some intense Christmas shopping. But for the Los Angeles Police Department, it's become a day of surveillance, crowd control and crime-suppression tactics.
Helicopters will buzz above some shopping centers, and below, a cavalry of LAPD officers will patrol on bikes and horses. From store rooftops, officers will scan the crowds below looking for unruly behavior. Electronic signs near stores will warn customers about becoming victims of theft as they navigate the mass of humanity looking for bargains.
The deployments are part of a new strategy by the LAPD to deal with the retail roller derby that comes after Thanksgiving. In addition to stationing officers around shopping centers, the LAPD has been visiting stores across the city this week, talking to managers about the psychology of the frantic shopper.
Officials said the push was prompted by a series of incidents at Black Friday sales, notably one last year at a Porter Ranch Wal-Mart in which two dozen people were injured when a woman unleashed pepper spray during a frantic battle for some discounted video games.

Becoming part of the few and the proud left Pvt. Edson Machado sore and breathless.
But it was another oath that left the 27-year-old Marine nearly speechless.
"It's my pleasure to first address you as 'my fellow Americans,'" Kathy Redman, southeast regional director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, told Machado and nine other Marines during a naturalization ceremony Thursday at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island.
Before family and friends, the nine trainees and one sergeant from 10 different countries raised their right hands to become the first group of Marines at Parris Island to become U.S. citizens.

The ceremony, held during Family Day before the Marines graduate from basic training today(Friday), was part of a recent expansion of a federal initiative to expedite citizenship for active-duty military personnel who are or will be deployed. The other military branches already participate in the initiative.
"When you pledged your commitment to the eagle, globe and anchor, you joined the newest generation of Marines," Redman said. "Now that you swore your oath to the United State of America, you've become our newest Americans."
Under the initiative, the government expedites the naturalization process on the military base so the recruit can graduate from basic training as an American. The process involves collecting application forms, conducting the naturalization interview and administering the Oath of Allegiance
Otherwise, they would wait years while being deployed and fighting for a country of which they aren't citizens, immigration services public affairs officer Sharon Scheidhauer said.
Former President George W. Bush signed an executive order in July 2002 authorizing all noncitizens who have served honorably in the U.S. armed forces on or after Sept. 11, 2001, to immediately file for citizenship. To qualify, a service member must be of good moral character, speak English and pass a U.S. civics and history test.
Since September 2002, more than 83,000 military members, including those in basic training and in 27 countries, have become citizens under the order, according to immigration service.
Machado left Brazil with his family at age 19, following his father's quest to seek out the American dream — to forge a better life for his family without worries of violence or poverty.
During the last seven years, the family struggled to gain citizenship. Machado's father and other relatives are still waiting and likely will for some time.
"As an immigrant, I took advantage of the American dream," Machado said. "I went to school. I learned the language. I learned the culture."
"I was able to prosper, and I wanted to pay that back," he said.
"You go through so much hard stuff through boot camp — difficult times where you want to give up — but you find inner strength to carry on," Machado said. "Graduation is like a light at the end of the tunnel. To add citizenship on top of that, it's like fireworks."
Pfc. Ghislaine Songong, 26 cq possessed a similar interest. At 19, she left Cameroon, joining her mother in Maryland to seek a brighter future. She graduated from the University of Maryland
"At first, it was for me to do something challenging and get some great leadership training," Songong said. "Over time, even with my college degree, I felt I hadn't really accomplished something and wanted to serve this country that gave me so many opportunities."

Some studies have shown that senior cats do not digest food as well as younger cats, and thus absorb less fat. This means that older cats may actually need to consume more fat to get the same amount of energy. You'll need to monitor the weight and body condition of your cat, and adjust his food amount accordingly.
Your cat's protein needs are higher than the protein needs of many other animals. Again, many senior cats may not be able to digest protein as well as they did when they were younger, and their protein requirements may actually be higher. Unless your cat has a health condition which calls for protein restriction, your senior cat should NOT be placed on a protein restricted diet.
Talk with your veterinarian to determine which supplements may be beneficial for your cat.
