Clean shells don't exist. Among the dirtiest of dirty shells are non-reporting shells. A shell is a company that's trading but lacks assets. Usually, the private company buys the shell and puts their business into it. It rarely works out well for the private company. As I read Section 5 of the 1933 U. S. Securities Act, the only American stock that should be publicly traded are the shares of

A short post at the end of the week to update you on what’s happened regarding the conference call I mentioned on Monday. The call promoted discrimination/segregation of work. I will remind you that my coworker asked me to stay out of the situation, since I was not on the phone call. I will also remind you that my coworkers do not want to go to EEOC at this time. Anyway, here’s what’s happened:1. My coworker documented the call, including who specifically said what about the intentional discrimination and segregation of work assignments;2. My coworker conducted research into anti-discrimination laws;3. My coworker wrote a memo to our supervisor, which included the specifics of what happened, strong language regarding how offensive the call was (including statements made by White cowo

It's official-CNN news reporter Richard Quest was arrested at 3:40 a.m. on Friday in New York's Central Park for possession of a controlled substance and loitering. His drug of choice? "I've got some meth in my pocket," he told the arresting officers. British by birth, Quest is the host of "Quest" and the "CNN Business Traveler." He became wildly popular for his unique delivery style and clownish antics on camera. Judge Anthony Ferrara gave him a walk after stern instructions for counseling and therapy for six months.Here's an example of his high energy-I mean tweaked-reporting style:CNN is, not surprisingly, mum on the subject of Richard Quest's drug habits.

Some time ago I tried out SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services and I was amazed. I'm serious MS Paint terrorist and nice pictures are not one of my strong skills. So, if something makes things look nice to me I'm very happy. I downloaded last CTP of SQL Server 2008 and installed it on my Virtual PC that runs Windows Server 2008.

"Recession is when a neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours."Perhaps the above Ronald Reagan quote is a good example of why the Mainstream Media is so gloomy about the economy.If you're employed by the MSM, job cuts and downsizing is not only a fact of life, there's no end in sight for the members of the Media Pampered Class. It's easy to see why the MSM talking heads are so obsessed with any bad economic news: if arrogance and conservative-bashing are no longer enough to ensure one's continued employment in the MSM, then the economy MUST be in shambles.Red Planet Cartoons has a good point in their latest, "Hoping for Recession". The Mainstreamers reported unemployment of 5.4% during the Bill Clinton re-election campaign as the attainment of Nirvana. Now, with unemployme

The Troops found nothing suspicious so they left. Al Qaida would have killed them all. Our Troops did their jobs and left them alone seeing that they were no danger or threat. Amazing.

According to a recent article by Dianna Dilworth from DM News, it looks like our suspicions have been confirmed. Due to the ease of classification, legitimate emails are being classified as SPAM. In fact, fifty-six percent of consumers consider marketing messages from known senders to be spam if the message is "just not interesting to me" and 50% consider "too frequent e-mails from companies I know" to be spam, according to a new study by Q Interactive conducted in conjunction with marketing research firm MarketingSherpa. The study, called Spam Complainers Survey, investigated consumer perceptions of what they consider to be spam, why they report e-mails as spam and what they think happens when the "r

EPA continues to speed release of Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) information to the public and to enhance data quality. For the first time since TRI's inception, all facilities that are required to submit data to TRI will be able to do so over the Internet, using the award-winning TRI-ME software. Companies will no longer have to mail reports on compact disks or paper to EPA, both of which consume more natural resources and slow release of information to the public. The Internet system also has quality checks built into the software, which will improve data quality. This year, companies are required to submit calendar year 2007 data to TRI by July 1, 2008. Facilities will be able to use the Internet to send information directly to EPA through our Central Data Exchange. The TRI-ME

If you’ve been keeping up with the news relating to the environment, you’ve likely heard some weird stories. I recently encountered one reporting that Australia is considering a Child Tax.

Home Mortgage is a type of a home loan. To get this loan, a lender will consider about your craedit rates (credit rating), credit reports and fair credit report act (FCRA). What is FCRA? Home Mortgage RatesHome mortgage One type of loan, especially those looking to pay larger debts than usual, is a home mortgage. A home mortgage (usually involving a bank but not limited to it) is simply a pledge or commitment in which a home owner offers the title of his property as a form of security for a loan – you place your home as the collateral. When you get your loan, you are required to pay a certain amount at different intervals, depending on what is agreed upon, and if you don’t, you could potentially lose your home. However, not everyone can easily get a loan, especially fr

MAIA’s Innovative Product Strikes The Right Chord With ClientsAMERICAN scientist Carl Sagan once said, knowing a great deal is not the same as being smart. Intelligence is not information alone, but also judgement, the manner in which information is collected and used. This holds as good for companies as it holds good for individuals. Companies are accumulating information all the time, sometimes much more than they can manage. The collective corporate memory of all such information can be mindboggling and companies may struggle, and eventually fail, to effectively use it for decision making. One fallout of such complexity is that a company might be sitting on information that it desperately seeks, but simply does not know that it exists.It was this problem that gripped the minds of Sanj

One in six people in Britain are mentally ill, yet press coverage of mental health can often be insensitive and ignorant. A famous example of this is the Sun’s infamous “Bonkers Bruno” headline, which forced the paper to issue an apology after complaints by readers. Over half the number of journalists are concerned about the way their media report mental health.It is therefore important that journalism students understand how to report mental illness. Our journalism class was lucky enough to attend a seminar this morning given by speakers from Shift; the Department of Health funded campaign to tackle stigma and discrimination associated with mental illness.There is a negative perception about mental health, fuelled by the media and aspects of popular culture. 34% of people think a pe

It is very important that all sellers with non-paying bidders file non-paying bidder alerts and final value fee credits 10 days later if payment is still not received.Filing the FVFC has better results than leaving negative feedback - a buyer with three FVFC filed from three different sellers is suspended (usually) from using E Bay. Leaving negative feedback only gets a buyer suspended when their feedback number gets into the negatives (usually -3, but sometimes even that doesn't occur).It is also important to file for the correct reason - that the buyer didn't pay. If they don't pay, don't file "mutually agreed to cancel the transaction" - that does NOT place a black mark against the buyer and allows the buyer to continue doing the same thing to other sellers.If you review a buyers feedba

Prometheus Therapeutics and Diagnostics has modified their celiac genetics testing and reporting. They are now including the number of copies of DQ2 and DQ8. Along with the DQ results they also include a table that summarizes the risk of celiac disease over the general population. Previously Prometheus only reported the presence or absence of DQ2 or DQ8. If you happened to be positive for both DQ2 and DQ8 then we knew your entire DQ pattern. However, if you only had one copy of either or two copies of one the results had less value for determining your risk of celiac disease, its severity and the possible risk of your parents and children for having at least one copy of the at risk genes predisposing to celiac disease. Now Prometheus provides a very detailed report of the DQ2 and DQ8 gene

Having cancer patients report to doctors on their symptoms and side effects online may improve their care, a new study finds. Even the sickest cancer patients are willing and capable of reporting their symptoms online, says a team from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. “Cancer care has become increasingly complex, causing office visits to become more compressed. This makes it challenging for the clinician to comprehensively assess each patient’s symptoms in that brief window of time,” study author Dr. Ethan Basch, a medical oncologist, said in a prepared statement. “Because cancer therapies can be highly toxic, early detection of symptoms and timely treatment is vital. What is exciting to us about online self-reporting is that patients can alert clinicians to crucial symptoms in real time,” Basch said. The study included 107 lung cancer patients receiving outpatient chemotherapy who had access to a secure Internet patient reporting s

Every week we tell about a person who was important in the history of the United States. Today Shirley Griffith and Ray Freeman tell about reporter Ida Minerva Tarbell.Ida Tarbell was one of the most successful magazine writers in the United States during the last century. She wrote important stories at a time when women had few social or political rights.Ida Tarbell used her reporting skills against one of the most powerful companies in the world. That company was Standard Oil. Ida Tarbell charged that Standard Oil was using illegal methods to hurt or destroy smaller oil companies.She investigated these illegal business dealings and wrote about them for a magazine called McClure's. The reports she wrote led to legal cases that continued all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States.Ida Tarbell was born in the eastern state of Pennsylvania in November, eighteen fifty-seven. Her family did not have much money. Her father worked hard but had not been very successful.When Ida was

For those who didn't see the debate, an audience member asked a question of the candidates amounting to "What will you look for in a Supreme Court appointee?" Before the first candidate was able to answer, a CNN moderator interrupted to ask the candidate to include his stance on abortion in his answer.

Of course, I'm still on the fence about this whole job thing. I have to get up and go to work for 8 whole days (7 to go) before I get any paid holidays. They are total slave drivers! Other than the whole unreasonableness of their willingness to give out paid holidays like candy and everyone I work with is nice (and it isn't just temporary behavior because this pineapple did a background check on these people -- or maybe I just talked to a former employee), I think this whole job thing might work out. I'm not exactly sure what my job really is, but I'm pretty sure I will be able to do it. At least I'm confident that once they give me a computer to produce actual work product that I will be able to do my job. Ain't government work swell?

Reporting news was never so easy. Whenever a specific event happens, a set of statements from various corners follow without fail. This post is a collection of such events.Event 1: There’s a bomb blast somewhere.You can release following news items without hesitation (Add breaking news for effect)1 Sonia Gandhi has expressed her condolence for the families of the victims2 PM Manmohan Singh has said “India will not tolerate this cowardly act of terrorism” 3 Local police have said blasts might have occurred from something which might be anything from locally made crude bomb to sophisticated IED (Improvised Explosive devices)4 State Government has ordered an enquiry into the incident5 Security has been beefed up across country. All metros on red alert.Event 2: India looses a cricket match1 Dhoni (or whoever is the captain): We lost because of bad batting/bad bowling (depending on whether we failed to chase a total or to defend a small total)2 A senior team member: what if we have lo

When you’re being harassed and subjected to a hostile work environment, part of what happens is that you often feel isolated and you have fears (rational and irrational) that no one will believe the severity of the harm that you’re being subjected to at work. You feel like you have a bulls-eye on your back and you may feel like there’s nothing you can do to stop being a target. In fact, you may feel that reporting the harassment will do more harm that good.Let’s face it. Many people, regardless of race, are afraid to report sensitive issues to a supervisor, manager, director or a member of Human Resources. People are afraid to look like a whiner, a troublemaker or, when it comes to race, a race-baiter.When it comes to harassment in the workplace, it would be great if you would report the harassment to your supervisor. However, if you supervisor is the problem, you do not have to stay within your chain of command in order to deal with the problem. You have the right to speak to

Bloggers for Peer-Reviewed Research Reporting (BPR3) announced today the launch of its’ official icons. BPR3 was created because several academic bloggers in different fields recognized the need to distinguish serious writing on peer-reviewed research from blog posts discussing more informal topics. According the the BRP3 website: Bloggers for Peer-Reviewed Research Reporting strives to identify serious academic blog posts about peer-reviewed research by developing an icon and an aggregation site where others can look to find the best academic blogging on the Net. Peer review is the system academics use for reviewing each other’s work and involves subjecting scholarly research that has been written up for publication to the examination of others who are experts in the same field. The goal of peer review is to ensure that authors meet the standards of their discipline. When you see the BPR3 icon displayed on a blog post, it indicates the following: The blog post discusses

Two days ago we reported that on Google AdSense Reporting Discrepancies, which actually started sometime on Monday.In short, the channel reports were not matching up with the aggregated reports. So any reconciliation between the two reports did not add up.This has finally been fixed.Last night at about 6pm (EST), the first reports started coming in that the channel data has been updated.

The U.S. Department of Education has pushed back implementation of controversial new requirements for classifying students by race and ethnicity, but is holding firm in the face of objections to changes requiring that institutions report some students as being members of more than one race.Under final guidance issued by Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings and published in the Federal Register Oct. 19, schools must update as needed their method of student-data reporting to the Education Department no later than the 2010-11 school year—one year later than was announced when the guidelines were proposed last year.The revised system conforms to guidelines established in 1997 by the White House Office of Management and Budget and reflected in the 2000 U.S. Census. That census was the first to allow respondents to identify themselves multiracially.Under the new guidance, schools are to collect data on students’ racial and ethnic identities using a two-question format. First, famili

Today I noticed a funny little bug in one of the Google software. No, I won't tell you which bug that made me die laughing. It's not important. Really. Anyway, first thing that crossed my mind was to report it to Mr. Google Help bot. Suddenly, I remember why I don't want to report bugs [...]

SCI, the company which acquired game publisher Eidos in 2005 have reported a $60 million loss for their financial year ending June 30.In a time when most game companies are making money (like a certain Halo 3 publisher), it must be tough to have red numbers on the balance sheet. SCI and Eidos, owning such IPs as Hitman, Tomb Raider, and the upcoming Kane & Lynch, one would expect they should be on the safe side, but as anyone knows, competition in the gaming world is fierce. Eidos says the bad performance - where sales dropped 20% compared to last year - were due to poor timing of new product launches, and a weaker retail price on previous gen consoles.Source: Digital Battle Online Games Eidos SCI Gaming News Wii Xbox PlayStation publisher consoles

Give the Bangor Daily News credit for paying attention, this early in the race, to Sen. Collins pledge to serve no more than two-terms. (We discussed the pledge here.)That said, Tom Groening's reporting leaves a lot to be desired.Start with the headline: "Democrats say Collins broke two-term pledge."Well, did she or didn't she? Why the suspense?Unfortunately, the article itself is similarly non-committal:Sen. Collins, according to Democratic Party spokeswoman Carol Andrews, made the pledge to serve just two terms while running for the seat in 1996. Collins announced the two-term pledge on April 1, 1996, while signing a document supporting a constitutional amendment limiting terms for members of Congress.While seeking re-election in 2002, Collins reaffirmed her pledge to serve two terms in a letter to a constituent, according to Andrews.The Collins campaign does not deny she made the pledges.(Emphasis added.)So let's review. A Democratic spokeswoman makes a couple of charges. Sen. Co

Does anybody know where to go for legal counsel regarding unfair credit reporting in NJ? I have been fighting BOA since 2005. I have all the documents sent to them so they can correct the adverse account entry on my credit report and they still give me the run-around. I tried writing to the credit bureaus too but all they told me was to write to BOA. I am tired of this game they are playing maybe it's time I sue them? The Answer : If you have well documented proof that:-you did pay the bill-you did notify them of the error-you did dispute this with the credit bureau...then by all means sue them. There is a very specific procedure you need to follow, but if you do it you have a very easy small claims lawsuit, and you will win $1000 for your trouble (plus legal fees).If you don't want to fight this yourself...look in the phone book for a lawyer that specializes in collections. Sure, they work for collection agencies, but these slimeballs will also eat their young, and will take your ca

FCRA or Fair Credit Reporting Act was created to regulate collection, distribution & use of any consumer’s credit information. There are some responsibilities as well as guidelines that information furnishers & consumer reporting agencies have to follow regarding collection and distribution of consumer information.

Have any of you vacationed in Las Vegas? If you have, much of this will look familiar. If not, take a peek and see what you might be in for should you decide to do so!Hotels I'm currently staying at the Marriott Renaissance Las Vegas Hotel on Paradise Road. As a business traveler, I wouldn't recommend it. Since I'm not even a Silver level Marriott member yet, I have to pay if I want to eat breakfast (to give you an example of the outrageous prices, The All-American breakfast of eggs, bacon, & toast is $14.95). If I want internet access, I have to pay $12.95 per day (from noon to noon). And it's much more cost effective to find a dry cleaner off the strip than to pay the astronomical fees this hotel charges.Not all chain hotels near the strip are like this. Last year I stayed at the Hampton Inn on Tropicana and got a complimentary breakfast each morning and internet was free! I'll probably be going back to that hotel next year.The year before that, I stayed at the Bally's hote

One of the things that came out of Prosper's latest upgrade (see this linkfest for details) was increased information about a borrower's previous loans. I stumbled on a listing for a multi-loaner and found the interface very useful. I got a screenshot of this random listing (for an unreferenced borrower with all the credit info erased to protect the innocent). This was a good example. Several

Renee asks:I opened an UGMA account for each of my children (13 years old and 10 years old) when they were born. Their accounts have appreciated over the years and my 13 year old's account is reaching $100,000. I've been using TurboTax to do my return and including their dividends, distribution, and interest on my own tax return. On my 2005 tax return this amount was over $10,000. I am paying roughly $1500 tax for that judging my effective tax rate was 28% in 2005.I'm about to start my 2006 tax return and I was wondering if I can begin to file a separate tax return for my 13 year old, or even my 10 year old? This would be their only source of income. I would assume that I could save some tax by doing that.Any advice?ReneeMy reply:You have never been required to report your child's income on your own return.
