Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett's alter ego at Berkshire (BRK.A), is a great talker. Currently I prefer him to Warren if for no other reason Warren is simply overexposed currently and offers nothing new for us when he talks.

WASHINGTON: President Bush's second trip to the Mideast this year, designed in part to make progress toward a peace deal before the end of his presidency, will not see him hosting a joint session with the leaders of Israel and the Palestinian Authority, the White House said Wednesday."This did not seem the time for a big, high-level, three-way event," Stephen Hadley, Bush's national security adviser, told reporters.

Conflicting inflation indicators peppered with a breakdown in Eurozone retail sales will probably tilt the governing council of the European Central Bank (ECB) to vote for an unchanged leading overnight interest rate, standing at 4% since June 17, 2007.ECB president Jean-Claude Trichet will be happy to announce that Eurozone inflation moderated to 3.3% (3.6%) in April, according to Eurostat. It is questionable, though, whether this recent downtrend can persist. Industrial Eurozone producer prices continued their steep ascent, coming in at a monthly plus of 0.7% in March, raising the annual rate to 5.7% (5.3%) . In the EU 27 industrial producer prices advanced 6.7% (6.1%) YOY. Growing consumer and gasoline prices have begun to lead to a shift in consumption patterns. Europeans make a pass

..BMW NEWS..06.05.2008...The quest to find the finest young single seater racer in Asia Pacific continues this month, with the next five races of the Formula BMW Pacific season held on two different configurations of Malaysia's Sepang International Circuit..The four-day race meeting begins on Thursday, May 15, with a qualifying session, and the first two 10-lap races run the following day on the full 5.54km Grand Prix circuit. Saturday will see another qualifying session for the three further rounds which will be held over 20-laps each of the tight 2.72km North track..With very different characteristics, the two circuits will test the drivers' ability to adapt quickly to different race tracks with the corresponding changes to driving style.

In the wake of the awful Sean Bell cop trial verdict, Al Sharpton met with U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., on April 29. When the meeting was over, Sharpton came out to find his car was missing, according to The New York Post. No, it wasn't stolen. Hardly. It was, instead, towed away by the New York City Police Department because the car's owner (not sure if it was Big Al's car or someone else's) owed the city $900 in tickets. Ah at least there's some kind of justice in this world! (It's also amazing how a man who hasn't held a job in decades can afford to drive around in a Jaguar).

According to an email from some Missouri supporters of Ron Paul, sent late Sunday night, the state Republican Party has scheduled a special “credentials meeting” for 10 a.m. Monday at the Blue Armory in Jefferson City.At the meeting, according to the email, about 300 of the 1,900 elected delegates to the state GOP convention May 30-June 1 must disprove allegations that — presumably — accuse the targeted delegates of not being bona fide Republicans and/or not committed to supporting John McCain for president.Read MoreLiberty Central- Conservatism's Blog of Choice

Last Sunday we were not having the best weather but it had been compensated by meeting a long time friend from email to phone pal. You must be wondering why only now that I speak about our meeting. I don’t know, too. All I know, I’m so happy to see the person that I’ve been trying to visualize for a long time. She really stood up like the one I’ve on my head. I’m so grateful on meeting a family like hers. They are so nice and no negativities. Life flows so smoothly on them. Until now, her laughter still rings on my head which makes me smile. And the nicest thing is I can really envision her doing it with the right facial expression. Like normal, I’m so overwhelm that I can’t find the right words to describe how I felt on meeting them. What about this…“Maraming salamat sa

For men out there who are looking for tips on how to pick up women, I ran into an intriguing method called the Mystery Method. It was developed and popularized by Erik Von Markovik, who also goes by the name of Mystery.Von Markovik claims to have been a late bloomer, not hitting puberty until the age of 16 and not losing his virginity until the age of 21. Frustrated with his loneliness and inability to meet women, he set out on a study to learn how to be successful. After years of research and thousands of approaches, he developed his method of seducing the other sex.He classifies people by two values, their S and R value. "S" stands for the survival value and "R" stands for their replication value. Women tend to evaluate men based on their "S" value and men judge women for their "R" value

It's killing me right now.As I watched the last Harrison Council meeting video, Mayor Raymond McDonough was addressing the Harrison PBA president. He was reminding the president that he would have had the two additional men requested for the police department, and then he said this."If it weren't for the new Hudson County Sheriff, you would have had your men," McDonough said.I am going to have to call the mayor to ask him what he meant. Could it be that Juan Perez has made yet another stupid decision that has hurt the people of the county? I mean, come on. He's only been the sheriff for a grand total of about 120 days, and he's already padded the pockets of his friends and relatives by giving them prominent jobs. What could it be now that he's done?If I am able to reach McDonough over the

When you’re undergoing an outpatient treatment using Suboxone or methadone, it’s important that you find your resources for support wherever you can.

The New York Times Citigroup’s directors have been re-elected, but they were shelled with criticism at Tuesday’s annual meeting of shareholders, whose stock in the bank has lost half its value since they convened a year ago. The shareholder meeting was the first for Vikram S. Pandit as chief executive. Citigroup brought him in last summer when it bought his hedge fund, and then promoted him in December to succeed the ousted Charles O. Prince III. Last year “was a year of disappointments for Citi,” Mr. Pandit told shareholders Tuesday, referring to the mortgage crisis that led to deep losses for the banking industry. Bad investments in mortgages and other types of loans have forced Citigroup to write down the value of its assets by some $38 billion over the last three qua

One cold November morning, the wandering of the mysterious dervish Shams, who walked in a field of magnetism, brought him to the front of the Shekerjiler Hani (Inn of the Sugar Merchants) in Konya just as Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi was passing. Mevlana Jalaluddin sat majestically on his horse as his students scrambled to walk beside him and hold the stirrup. He had just completed his class at the College of Cotton Merchants.Shams leapt from the crowd, grasped the bridle of the horse and shouted, "O teacher of the Moslems, who was greater, Abu Yazid Bistami or Muhammad the Prophet?"Rumi felt the eyes of Shams looks past his own into the essence of his being, causing rivers of energy to flow within his body. "The Prophet Muhammad was greater," replied Rumi.Then Shams said, "Did not the Prophet

The Canadian dollar was falling slightly yesterday and today against the other world currencies as the traders expected the interest rate decision of the Bank of Canada monetary policy meeting, which is scheduled for 22nd of April. The total drop of the Canadian dollar (or so called Loonie) against the U.S. dollar this year is at 1.6% after a 17% gain last year. The drop increased this week as the Bank of Canada is expected to lower the key interest rate from 3.5% to 3.0% on its meeting today. The current interest rate in U.S. is 2.25%. The market is expecting not only a 50 basis point cut in Canada, but also a statement that will support confidence in further cuts by the BoC.
