In any event, I can gather a specific memory from each of Aaliyah’s albums. She was truly one of my favorites. So, I insisted to post some of my favorite tracks from Aaliyah’s albums.

Photo of pickup in S.F. official's hit-run death

FORESTVILLE -- A surveillance camera at a Guerneville winery photographed a pickup truck believed to have struck and killed Donald Casper, vice president of the San Francisco Civil Service Commission and a prominent figure in local Republican politics, authorities said.

cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber  The pickup's driver sped away Sunday evening after striking Casper, 63, from behind as he was jogging east on River Road west of Wilshire Drive in the Sonoma County community of Forestville.

Investigators described the truck as a white, newer-model Ford F-150 with an extended cab. The pickup was last seen headed east on River Road after the 7 p.m. crash.

The photo of the truck was taken by a surveillance camera at Korbel Champagne Cellars on River Road moments before the crash, said Officer Jonathan Sloat of the California Highway Patrol. The vehicle was passing Korbel at the time and was not coming from the winery, authorities said.

The CHP said the truck probably has damage to its right front area as a result of the crash. cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber .

Casper had spent the weekend with friends at a vacation cabin near the Russian River and went out early Sunday evening for his customary run. River Road follows the path of the river and has one lane in each direction with a painted yellow divider cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber .

"He made his evening run without fail," said Mike Antonini, who knew Casper for years and had a locker next to him at the Olympic Club in San Francisco. Casper was an experienced runner who had competed in nine marathons, including the famous Marine Corps Marathon in Washington cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber .

Running and fitness were extremely important to Casper, said E. Jeffrey Banchero, another friend. "He was a large man, who was out of shape for many years," Banchero said, "but then he got religion, as it were, and worked out every day."

Casper was the son of former San Francisco Fire Chief Andrew Casper. His mother, Dorothy Casper, was a member of the city Library Commission.

An attorney, he was appointed to the Civil Service Commission by Mayor Willie Brown in 2000, a year after Casper had engineered the local Republican Party's endorsement of Brown in his re-election campaign against Tom Ammiano cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber .

Casper was a member of the moderate wing of the Republican Party who thought Brown a more acceptable choice than Ammiano. "You deal with the world as you find it, not as you wish it to be," he said.

More conservative Republicans on the party's state committee went after Casper, and eventually he lost his position on the local GOP Central Committee. "They don't get it," he said. "The idea that politics is a conversation about finding mutually agreeable positions is beyond them."

Casper was also a member of the San Francisco State Building Authority, an agency that controls state-owned office buildings in San Francisco and last year opposed Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's plan to sell state buildings and lease them back. The governor had Casper fired, but Casper took the state to court and got a stay. Gov. Jerry Brown reversed the decision and reappointed him.

"Don was the expert on the rules governing employment in the city and county of San Francisco and knew it better than anyone else," Mayor Ed Lee said in a statement. "His contributions to our city are immeasurable."

Casper received his undergraduate and law degrees from Georgetown University and practiced law in San Francisco for 34 years. He never married and leaves no close survivors cnntürk, habertürk, hürriyet, ntv, ensonhaber .

warren buffett

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Legendary investor Warren Buffett, chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.A)(BRK.B), wrote in an opinion editorial on Monday that it's time to stop coddling the super-rich and to increase the taxes they pay.

Buffett wrote his opinions in an article for The New York Times in which he called on Congress to structure a proper budget that would force the top 0.3% of income earners to accept "shared sacrifice." "While the poor and middle class fight for us in Afghanistan, and while most Americans struggle to make ends meet, we mega-rich continue to get our extraordinary tax breaks," Buffett said.

Buffett said that he paid only 17.4% of his taxable income, which was lower than what the average middle-class American must pony up. An income earner who makes $8,500 to $34,500 is in the 15% tax bracket; $34,500 to $83,600 reaches the 25% bracket; and $83,600 to $174,400 falls in the 28% bracket. (2010 IRS Tax Tables)

Congress launched a bipartisan deficit-reduction panel last week to cut spending, decrease the deficit and increase the amount the U.S. Treasury can borrow. The Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction is a 12-member panel created by the budget legislation politicians passed on Aug. 2 to raise the debt ceiling.

The agreement outlined some $2.4 trillion in cuts and a debt limit increase of $2.1 trillion. The panel was appointed by party leaders in the House and Senate

OUR leaders have asked for “shared sacrifice.” But when they did the asking, they spared me. I checked with my mega-rich friends to learn what pain they were expecting. They, too, were left untouche

Ron Paul 2012

Rand Paul Rallies Ron Paul Supporters In Ames Ahead Of 2012
At Ron Paul's tent, his son, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), rallied the Texas congressman's supporters. They are a fired up bunch.

There is plenty of speculation that Paul will ultimately win the straw poll. If that happens, Rand told the crowd, "some will try to discount it."

"This isn't an online poll," he said. "If Ron Paul wins the poll today, it's going to be a message heard around the world."

The crowd roared.

Rand said that rather than lamenting Ron Paul's presence in the race, the Republican Party should be glad that he has brought new blood into the GOP. A young man in a flat-brimmed hat waved his hand and nodded his head.

He served up plenty of red meat, hinting that America might see riots like the ones in Britain and Greece if the country does not get its debt under control and prevent its currency from being devalued.

"We want to capture and keep our republic before we get to that point," he said.

He railed against the fact that some agents of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Agriculture Department carry weapons.

"The government is here to protect us from ourselves but we want a government that will protect our liberties."

"It's a battle between good and evil," he said. "To steal from the future to get and live large off of government largesse now is theft. It's morally wrong and something we must change."

After he finished, Paul's senior campaign adviser Doug Wead, who previously worked as an adviser to both Presidents Bush, came up on stage. "When Ron Paul is president, Rand Paul will be there in the Oval Office whispering in his ear every day," Wead said. "You vote for Ron, you get Rand."

Ron Paul's campaign spokesperson Gary Howard predicted Ron Paul will get "a lot more [votes] than last time." In the 2007 straw poll, he finished 5th, with 9.1% of the vote.

Ron Paul Takes 2nd in Iowa: Now are you ready to win?

Like me, you probably care deeply about becoming the best grassroots activist you can during the Ron Paul 2012 campaign. We are on the verge of a true intellectual revolution sweeping this country. There is no doubt that Ron Paul supporters have a monopoly on enthusiasm and energy. Now, our challenge is to channel this massive energy toward effective action.
The Perfect Storm

In the past, the Liberty movement has been pushed to the sidelines of the political discourse. Many of us were accustomed to pursuing intellectual arguments that the average citizen had never considered. Today, now more than ever, due to the state of the economy, mountainous government debt and endless war, a perfect storm is brewing and our time has come.

If you haven't noticed, Ron Paul is the vehicle for many, if not all, of our shared ideals. Whatever your pet issue within the Liberty movement, for the next 15 months, our central focus must center on winning the primary contest for Ron Paul. What will this look like?

Winning an election is a numbers game. When it comes down to it, a shockingly small segment of the population decides an election. Think about it, among the entire population--for our purposes, let's say 100 people. Of this group, 60 will be eligible voters (think children, illegals and felons). Of these 60, 40% will be registered to vote, leaving us with 24. Of these 24 voters, 25% will likely turn out on election day. That leaves us with 6 people, of which 3 will vote in the Republican primary. In order to win, you need only 50% +1 of this final pool; this assumes a contest of two candidates. In a primary with multiple candidates, even fewer votes are required for victory. (These numbers are approximate and vary from year to year.)

While our activities can take many forms, they must all focus on identifying and influencing this exclusive pool of likely Republican primary voters. For many of us, this requires a whole rewiring of our activism mindset. The time has come to shift from education mode to full-on effective campaigning for Ron Paul...

Four Dead in Indiana State Fair Stage Collapse at Sugarland Gig
It's a heartland heartbreaker for Sugarland fans at an Indiana State Fair concert.

Severe weather left four dead when high winds blew concert scaffolding onto the front rows, as the country band waited to take the stage. Dozens were reportedly injured according to reports, and an eyewitness who works for WANE-TV in Fort Wayne, Ind., described the harrowing scene pictured in the video above:

"The wind just picked up and the stage just caught and the roof just caught and it went up like a sail and then it crashed forward into the people standing in the front. There were people trapped underneath and everyone was running and screaming," said Kirby Ehler of local NewsChannel 15. "They were asking any medics or nurses not to leave."

The National Weather Service had issued a hazardous weather alert for central Indiana, warning of heavy rain and thunderstorms. The alert stated, "thunderstorms may be severe with damaging winds and large hail as the main threats." Adding, "the storms will also produce dangerous lightning and brief heavy rainfall."

Reportedly wind gusts of 60 to 70 miles per hour struck the area causing the collapse as thousands of fans waited for the headliners to take the stage.

According to the Indianapolis Department of Public Safety, at least 40 people have been transported to area hospitals. Those concerned for family and friends are urged to check redcross.org for a list of those injured.

Four Dead After Stage Collapses At Sugarland Show in Indiana
Four people are dead and reportedly 24 more injured after a stage collapsed tonight at the Indiana State Fair before the country band Sugarland was to perform.

A reporter for WANE-TV in Indiana was in the crowd at the time and described what happened like this: "The wind just picked up and the stage just caught and the roof just caught and it went up like a sail and then it crashed forward into the people standing in the front.

Few things give even a casual star gazer as much heart-jumping excitement as spotting a meteor. Meteors, sometimes called shooting or falling stars, are actually not stars at all. A meteor is created when a tiny piece of space junk (for example, a bit of dust or rock) enters the earth's atmosphere. As this small piece of debris flies high through the air, it encounters friction that makes it so hot it will burn up. As a result, a meteor appears as a quick, bright streak across the sky, and will then disappear. The brighter and longer the streak, the bigger the rock or dust particle that burned up.

london riots, london, what happened in london, london riots 2011, london riot - England have canceled Wednesday's international soccer friendly with the Netherlands at Wembley on police advice as forces focus on dealing with rioting and looting in the capital.

"It is with regret that Wednesday's international fixture with Holland at Wembley has been called-off," the English Football Association (FA) said in a statement Tuesday.

A number of Tuesday's English League Cup fixtures, including West Ham United's game against Aldershot Town and Charlton Athletic's match with Reading have also been canceled.

British Prime Minister David Cameron is to hold crisis talks later Tuesday after three nights of riots, looting and arson by masked, hooded youths wrecked shopping streets in many parts of London and spread to other cities across the country.

The riots have spread to the midlands city of Birmingham, where England play India in the third test starting on Wednesday, as well as Liverpool and Bristol.

London News Bulletin: Youth Loot, Burn and Battle Cops for Second Night

london riots, london, what happened in london, london riots 2011, london riot : Looting and violence continues

Shops were looted and youths clashed with police in Enfield

Police have condemned a wave of "copycat criminal activity" across London in a second night of looting and disorder following riots in Tottenham.

Officers had been attacked and a number of police vehicles had been damaged, the Metropolitan Police said.

A Footlocker shop in Brixton, south London, was set on fire while other nearby stores were looted.

Three officers were hurt when a vehicle hit them as they tried to make an arrest in Waltham Forest, east London.

Disorder has also been reported in Enfield, Walthamstow and other parts of the capital.

Clashes broke out in Enfield, north London, on Sunday evening where shop windows were smashed and a police car damaged.

'Copycat activity'

Several arrests were made but police said the situation there had now been contained.

There have been reports of a gang of up to 200 youths looting shops and charging police in Coldharbour Lane and the High Street in Brixton, south London.

The Met said it had dealt with several incidents of "copycat criminal activity" across the city.

These included:

--Three officers injured after being hit by a vehicle in Chingford Mount, Waltham Forest, at about 00:45 BST
--More than 30 youths vandalising and looting a number of shops in Walthamstow and Waltham Forest
--Vandalism carried out by about 50 youths in Oxford Circus, central London
--A police vehicle being attacked in Islington, north London
--A Tesco store in Ponders End being attacked and items stolen

Journalist Padraic O'Brien told BBC 5 live he had witnessed widespread looting in Brixton.

He said: "They smashed a William Hill, they set bins on fire, etc...

"And now what we're seeing as the night progresses is that replicated, sort of flashpoints all along Brixton High Street.

"I've seen a Vodafone looted, I've seen a Footlocker looted and set on fire, I've seen Marks & Spencers attacked.

"I've seen a striking number of mobile phone stockists that have been targeted.

"I'm standing outside Halfords on the other side of the road and they've just smashed through the doors of Halfords. They're taking bikes out the front entrance.

"I have to say, what really struck me was the small number of police officers that there actually seem to be on Brixton High Street responding to this."

Press Association photographer Lewis Whyld saw looters battle police at a Currys store in Brixton.

He said: "A couple of 100 youths were rioting and looting. Riot police went in to get them out and there was a big fight in the street.

"Youths were throwing rocks and bottles and there was a bin on fire. They used a fire extinguisher to push the police back so they could get back into Currys and continue taking things out."

Rhoda Dakar also saw the trouble in Brixton.

He said: "I saw smoke coming from one side of the railway bridge. The was a strong toxic smell in the air.

"Youths were looting and running with poles - at that point I chose to leave and go home.

"You could tell youths were just out there waiting for something to happen."

Met Police Commander Christine Jones said: "This is a challenging situation with small pockets of violence, looting and disorder breaking out in a number of boroughs.

'In harm's way'

"We have deployed units across London and continue to move quickly to deal with any reports of criminality as soon as possible.

"Officers are once again putting themselves in harm's way to arrest those responsible and prevent further crimes. I am proud of their dedication and bravery.

"I, along with the vast majority of Londoners, condemn this mindless criminality. It serves no purpose and only results in the destruction people's livelihoods and communities."

london riots, london, what happened in london, london riots 2011, london riot, London Fire Brigade said it had been called to a number of fires in Enfield, Brixton and Walthamstow, including a fire at a shop on Brixton Road where 30 firefighters were tackling the flames.

The disorder follows rioting in Tottenham which broke out on Saturday night and continued into Sunday morning.

A peaceful protest over the fatal shooting by police on Thursday of 29-year-old Mark Duggan descended into violence later in the evening.

The unrest spread into nearby Wood Green and Tottenham Hale. Shops were attacked and looted, 26 police officers and three others were injured and buildings and vehicles were set alight.

Parts of Tottenham are still cordoned off, as officers and forensic specialists continue to examine the riot scene.

As well as Mr Duggan, a police officer was also shot in Thursday's incident, which happened in what was called a "pre-planned" event, under Operation Trident, which investigates gun crime in the African and Caribbean communities.

Sorry, Jon! Kate Gosselin's Kids Want Her to Get Remarried

Guess who's back and ready to juggle eight kids along with some harsh criticism?

Yup, Kate Gosselin will be re-entering our lives starting tonight when her reality show Kate Plus 8 premieres its new season on TLC.

But before we get all hyped up on that, the mommy of many appeared on Today this morning to promote her series, and of course, the question of her love life came up.

Here we go again...

MORE: Jon Gosseslin's Personal Issues May Cost Kate Big Bucks

Kate shared that she's "definitely ready to start dating," and this isn't the first time we've heard this, but of course, being a mom of eight little ones and in the public eye can make that a little difficult.

"I think there's a lot of obstacles for me," she said. "But in all honesty, I've talked to my best friend and said wouldn't it be great if she could go around the country and collect suitable people, because the odds of me sort of bumping into someone are rare."

Is she hinting at another reality show?

Anyway, there are some people—eight little people, to be exact—that are pushing for her to get remarried.

Yes, those darling children are "just begging on a daily basis for me to get married again," she said. "They bring it up all the time, and I'm like, 'I don't...I'm not dating anyone.'"

You're not dating anyone yet, Kate. We're keeping our fingers crossed (and no, this isn't for our own guilty pleasure of watching her date someone. Well, not totally).


Kate Gosselin arrived in New York City Monday morning flanked by her trusty bodyguard Steve Nield, and RadarOnline.com has all the photos of the radiant mother of eight.

The 36-year-old Kate Plus 8 star looked stunning in a knee-length bright blue dress as she signed autographs for waiting fans after her interview.

PHOTOS: Kate Lights Up The Big Apple

Gosselin admitted to The Today Show co-host Ann Curry that her kids are constantly "begging for me to get married again!" saying, "They bring it up all the time."

"There's a lot of obstacles for me. I hope to just, sort of bump into somebody. I talk to my best friend and say wouldn't it be great if she can go around the country and collect suitable people," Gosselin said.

"The odds of me sort of bumping into someone are rare. I have eight kids. I have a crazy work schedule. There are a lot of obstacles. I am ready to start dating again."

Speaking of dating, Gosselin struck out on a new episode of her hit TLC show when she invited a hunky bystander into the Washington, DC, cupcake shop they were filming in and offered him a baked good.

Not only did the unsuspecting guy reject her cupcake because he wanted gluten-free, but he didn't even know who Gosselin was!

Kate Plus 8 airs Mondays on TLC at 9/8c.

Kate Gosselin Says Kids ‘Begging’ Her to Get Remarried

No offense, Kate Gosselin, because momming is hard work- but if I were one of your eight offspring, I think I might wish there was someone else around to take the heat every so often, too.

Gosselin- one half of the former Jon and Kate plus eight brood that became slightly smaller when Jon swanned off to make bad decisions all on his lonesome- says the Gosselin kids are keen on getting a stepdaddy up in there after their parents’ acrimonious and reality-TV chronicled split.

Kate has been doing a spate of publicity, and talks about dating again in interviews. But, the mega-mom admits, a relationship with her comes with a lot of complications, including her almost-half-a-Duggar-clan sized family. She recently told Billy Bush:


    “Obviously, this time, I’m looking for somebody older, wiser, patient, strong… I have humongous obstacles… I’m doing mom things so it is a true concern, like how will I ever be out there to meet somebody?”

On the challenges of finding time to lure a fella while securing a sitter for eight, Kate says to Ann Curry:

    “I’ve said a lot of times that I’m ready to start dating. I think there are a lot of obstacles for me. I hope to sort of bump into somebody but in all honesty, I talk to my best friend about wouldn’t it be great if she could go around the country and collect suitable people?

    “The odds of me just sort of bumping into someone are rare.”

Not only are the Gosselin kids keen on Kate finding a man, she says, they want her to do it like, yesterday. She explains:

    “I don’t know where life will take me. I am hoping that the person is out there because the kids on a daily basis are begging for me to get married again. They bring it up all the time and I’m like, ‘I’m not dating anyone’.”

No word on how ex-husband Jon has fared after her was unceremoniously booted off the gravy train that bears his family name- but Kate and Jon were spotted not fighting not too recently by TMZ photogs. Kate and the eight are slated to return to their TLC reality show tonight- the first episode, not coincidentally, deals with Kate being back on the market and looking.

Riots spread in London
Looting and arson by youths organizing on social media have moved into tourist areas of the capital and to Britain's second-largest city. Some see it not as a protest, but an opportunistic crime spree.

Looting and arson by gangs of youths spread Monday from poor northern districts of London to the south, to tourist areas of the capital and to Britain's second-largest city as police flooded the streets and announced scores of new arrests.

london underground map, london riots 2011, london tube map, london map, london tottenham  So, the city’s on fire, looters roam the high streets, maybe it’s kicking off in Birmingham and Leeds, too. Consider this an open thread to blame Twitter and praise the Big Society.

Prime Minister David Cameron and other senior officials broke off their vacations and returned to London to try to stem the worst outbreak of urban violence in Britain in a quarter-century. It started Saturday night after a peaceful protest over the police shooting of a 29-year-old man in an operation to control illegal firearms.

Some community leaders say the violence appears to also be a reaction to frustration over high unemployment and cutbacks in government services in mixed-race, low-income neighborhoods.

Others called it merely an opportunistic crime spree by youths who figured out that by organizing through social media, they could outwit the outnumbered police. Youths wearing balaclavas and wielding sticks and iron rods meet up to vandalize and loot shops where they can smash windows or break open the doors.

Shops shut early Monday evening and all London's district governing councils were on alert. Police warned residents to be vigilant as news of rioters fanned through the city. Some people out shopping or on errands found themselves caught up in aggressive mobs of youths.

By Monday afternoon, London police had arrested 215 people and charged 27 with burglary, theft and violent disorder.

Home Secretary Theresa May, who broke off her vacation to deal with the crisis, said 35 police officers had been injured since the riots began. May called the violence unacceptable. "There is no excuse for looters, thuggery or violence going on in the streets," she said.

Cameron was to hold a meeting of an emergency management team Tuesday morning london underground map, london riots 2011, london tube map, london map, london tottenham .

Violence has spread from the Tottenham district, where it broke out late Saturday, across other low-income, multiethnic districts in north London. On Monday, trouble broke out in the northeast borough of Hackney, and in the southern areas of Lewisham and Peckham, where buildings, cars and buses were set on fire and windows were smashed. Some looting was reported in Oxford Circus in the city center.

In Birmingham, Britain's second-largest city, youths broke windows and looted stores; police arrested at least 35 people. Rioting was also reported in Liverpool.

The number of police across London in full riot gear had been tripled since Saturday, Deputy Commissioner Stephen Kavanagh told the BBC, and more police were being brought in from outside the city. Mounted police moved in to support the ground force in controlling rioters in Hackney late Monday.

Many residents of the communities said they regarded the rioting as vandalism rather than a legitimate protest. But Elizabeth Pears, a freelance journalist from north London, also told the BBC, "There are a lot of angry young people, there is high unemployment and youth centers have been closed down, and there is a problem with relations between the people and police."

Critics say the government was ill-prepared to handle a law enforcement crisis. Government ministers were on vacation, and the London police force lost its chief and deputy chief, who resigned over the recent phone hacking scandal.

Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, who returned to London on Monday, said the riots had nothing to do with the death of 29-year-old Mark Duggan in the police action in Tottenham. "It was needless, opportunistic theft and violence," he said. He rejected criticisms that the government had left the country rudderless in a summer of social and financial troubles.

bank of america stock

boa, apple stock, bb t, aig, merrill lynch  Standard and Poor’s has just announced its downgrading of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — the latest fallout from Friday’s national credit downgrade.

Bank of America stock is down 9.42% on the session. The Dow Jones is trading down nearly 300 points. S&P 500 down 3.14%. Nasdaq is down 3.34%. Gold is trading at $1,703 per ounce.

Update: Dow Jones is now down about 360 points. Bank of America is down 10% since opening bell. Nasdaq is now down more than 4%. Dow Jones down 373 points. Gold has moved up $50 per ounce today alone.


Bank of America stocks tumbled 20 percent on Monday as investors reacted in part to a $10 billion lawsuit that the insurance corporation American International Group brought against the company.

The dramatic single-day drop was reminiscent of market plunges during the financial crisis of 2008, and stood out even amongst a market-wide spate of sell-offs that left the Dow Jones industrial average more than 600 points down on the day.

BofA closed at $6.51 on Monday, a 20.32 percent drop from the opening bell, after a day of rapid stock declines that saw the Dow shed 634 points. The Dow closed at 10,809 after dipping below 11,000 for the first time since November 2010, making Monday the sixth-worst trading day in Dow history.

Elsewhere in the market, the S&P 500 Index fell by 6.66 percent and the NASDAQ Composite closed at 6.9 percent down.

On Monday, AIG announced that it was suing Bank of America for more than $10 billion, alleging that BofA, and its acquisitions Merrill Lynch and Countrywide Financial, participated in “massive fraud” when they sold mortgage-backed securities to AIG between 2005 and 2007. AIG says that more than 40 percent of the mortgages were presented as being more secure than they actually were.

A spokesman for Bank of America has countered that AIG “is the very definition of an informed, seasoned investor” and should be held responsible for any purchases it made.

The slide in BofA stocks, the worst since April 2009, was reflected in declines among other major lenders. Citigroup was down 16 percent at the end of the day, Morgan Stanley closed down 14 percent, JPMorgan and Wells Fargo were each down 9 percent and Goldman Sachs fell 6 percent.

AIG’s own stock fell 10 percent to $22.58. boa, apple stock, bb t, aig, merrill lynch

Bank of America, the country’s largest banks by assets, has seen the value of its stock decline by 54 percent since the start of 2011. Last month, BofA reported losses of $8.8 billion in the second quarter, its worst quarterly earnings report ever.

On Wednesday, BofA CEO Brian Moynihan will answer shareholder questions during a 90-minute conference call. A press release from Fairholme Capital Management, a major shareholder with BofA, says that “skeptics are invited to participate.”

Monday’s market plunge is seen as a response to Standard & Poor’s historic downgrade of the United States’ credit rating last Friday, as well as concerns that Italy and Spain could slip into default as part of the worsening European debt crisis. Investors have also seen a series of disappointing economic reports in recent days, raising fears that the U.S. economy may be headed for a double-dip recession.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Bank of America shares plunged 20% Monday, fueled in part by a steep selloff in the broader market and news that insurer American International Group is suing it for billions of dollars over alleged mortgage securities fraud.

Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500), the nation's largest bank, tumbled more than 20% while shares of AIG (AIG, Fortune 500) fell 10% on Monday. Bank of America has already lost nearly 49% of its value this year, while AIG has tumbled more than 59%.


Richard Staite, analyst with Atlantic Equities, said there were two main catalysts for Monday's selloff in Bank of America's stock.

First, the slump in Bank of America's stock is being triggered by more than just the AIG news. It's part of a broader market selloff that took other banking stocks down with it.

Citigroup (C, Fortune 500) shares fell 15.7%, JP Morgan Chase (JPM, Fortune 500) slumped almost 8.7%, Wells Fargo (WFC, Fortune 500) fell 9% while shares of Regions Financial (RF, Fortune 500) tumbled 13.5%.

Second, investors are losing confidence in Bank of America, he said boa, apple stock, bb t, aig, merrill lynch .

"Management has tried to reassure investors over the course of the last six months that they are getting on top of the mortgage problem but investors are very skeptical," he said, adding that there's really nothing that Bank of America can do to stop its stock price from falling.

There was more bad news for Bank of America. Credit default swaps (CDS) tied to its debt were at their highest level since May 2009.

Credit default swaps reflect the interest rates that Bank of America has to pay to borrow money. If they keep rising, Staite said it would exacerbate investor concerns about whether the company has enough liquidity to run its business.
Dow plunges 630 points after S&P downgrade

Hoping to allay those concerns, Bank of America spokesman Jerry Dubrowski said the company has no plans to raise additional capital. "We have enough capital to operate the business and execute our business strategy," he said.

Staite also said said he is not overly concerned about Bank of America facing a liquidity crunch anytime soon.

Separately, AIG is suing Bank of America's for alleged fraudulent activity that it claims "caused billions of dollars in damage" to its business.

AIG's lawsuit is specifically tied to hundreds of mortgage-backed securities that the insurer claims Bank of America -- and its Merrill Lynch and Countrywide Financial units -- knew were not top quality, according to published reports.

The insurer is seeking to recover more than $10 billion in losses from Bank of America on $28 billion of investments, in what could be the largest mortgage-security-related action filed by a single investor, the reports said.

"We are bringing this suit today to protect AIG and the taxpayers' stake in it," AIG spokesman Mark Herr said in a statement.

Bank of America responded to the lawsuit by saying that AIG "recklessly chased high yields and profits throughout the mortgage and structured finance markets."

"It is the very definition of an informed, seasoned investor, with losses solely attributable to its own excesses and errors. We reject its assertions and allegations," Dubrowski said in a statement.

AIG's Herr said Bank of America's comment was "disappointing but unsurprising."
0:00 / 1:04 AIG sues BofA for $10 billion

"Investors, no matter how sophisticated, were entitled to rely on [Bank of America's] numerous written representations about the securities it sold," he said. "Now that it is clear that those representations were false, Bank of America must be held to account."

Back of America received billions of dollars in federal bailout funds through the government's Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) during the crisis of 2008.

In December 2009, Bank of America paid back all of the $45 billion in bailout money.
boa, apple stock, bb t, aig, merrill lynch The government also gave AIG a $182 billion lifeline to keep the insurance company out of bankruptcy at the height of the financial crisis.

That lifeline was offered in exchange for a near-80% stake in the insurer. AIG has paid back a portion of its loan, and the Treasury Department holds the rest in public shares, which it plans on selling over time.

In May, AIG sold 100 million shares, while Treasury sold 200 million shares. The government still owns almost 80% of the insurer.

Gold Price Update

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Gold prices soared above the $1,700-an-ounce barrier on Monday to set another record as the Standard & Poor’s downgrade of U.S. credit ratings amplified worries about global economic outlook, luring investors to the metal’s safe-haven appeal.

Gold futures rose as high as $1,718.20 an ounce during the session.

The latest rally came in the wake of S&P’s downgrade Friday of U.S. credit ratings to AA+ from AAA. A decline in the U.S. dollar and hefty losses in Asian stocks aided the surge.

“The downgrade will no doubt weigh further on the already very negative sentiment towards the [U.S. dollar] and accelerate the pace of reserve diversification from” the greenback, Bank of America Merrill Lynch analysts wrote in a note.

However, they also said the short-term impact on the U.S. dollar would depend on the performance of risk assets in reaction to the S&P decision.

“It is conceivable that if the recent sell-off of risky assets were to continue, the [dollar] may even strengthen,” they said.

Gold prices and the U.S. currency often — but not always — tend to move in opposite directions, as the metal’s dollar-denominated price is used as the international benchmark.

The U.S. dollar index /quotes/zigman/1652083 DXY -0.40% , which measures the greenback against a basket of six other major currencies, fell to 74.117 from 74.306 late in New York trading Friday. Read full story on currencies.

Asian stocks also got a black eye as investors dumped equities and pared exposure to risk assets. U.S. stock futures pointed to a sharply lower opening for Wall Street, with futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average /quotes/zigman/1785993 DJ1U -1.68%  down 128 points. Read Asia Markets.

We humans are bad at remembering things and use our brains as a temporary storage medium. Having to do list will help you with planning and you'll know what to do at all times. Do not rely on your memory, depending on your to do list. For Mac users, Omnifocus used. Remember the Milk, Teux Deux and Toodledo also good, a web-based.

7. Keep track of your time spent working on campaigns

Everyone knows what the ROI (if not, be ashamed!), But most affiliates do not take into account how much time they spend on campaigns. To get a true ROI on your campaign, track how much time you actually work on your campaign. Then calculate ROI based on money spent and your time. That will give ROI the right and you'll know how much you are worth per hour. This will help you on the next point.

Before you can outsource things, you have to know how long your time is worth per hour. Focus what you do best, outsource the rest (if it is economically sensible).

13. Exercise

Because you sit all day behind a computer screen, you hardly get any exercise. One of the secrets of Richard Branson to time management is to exercise, because it gives you more energy and better focus. Do at least 3 times a week and you'll see that you have more energy to do more work.

14. Enough sleep

Your physical energy is the key to productivity. Think about it. You can not get a job when you are tired and sleep is a great foundation for your physical energy. After sleeping the night, usually around 8 hours, you are more energetic to get something. This goes hand-in-hand with exercise.

15. Leave home

If you are in a bad mood, no work will be done. Since most of the work you do is settle and in the room, it can get depressed at times. Especially if you do not get enough sunlight. AT LEAST leave the house twice a week to get fresh air and to change your mood. By leaving your work space for long period of time, you will also get the feeling you want to work anymore.

18. Identifying and working at peak times

As an affiliate you have the freedom to work whenever you want. Use this to your advantage. Everyone has a certain time of day when they are most energetic and most get the job done. Identifying their peak times and hard work during that time. For most affiliates it somewhere in the morning and / or late at night.

19. Learn to say no

There are always new deals come out or new ways to make more money, but there are huge opportunity costs involved every time you switch. Do not try new things all the time. Constantly switching is inefficient. Be willing to say no and keep working on what you have done.

20. Learn the keyboard shortcuts of all your programs and operating systems are often used

Over time you will save a lot of time and this will also streamline your workflow.

21. Working in the cycle

If you are someone who would easily distracted, working on 25 / 5 cycles. Work 25 minutes, then rest 5 minutes. For every 4 cycles (2 hours), rest 30 minutes. It is also known as the Pomodoro Technique. If you can have the focus anymore, do 50/10. It's important to rest. Get some food and then back at it.

Secret .. to Get Free Backlink

How It Can Free Backlink - Backlinks, or Link Back very important for your site and how to rank the relevancy to the search engines. Many SEO companies around the world living from getting backlinks that are specific to their clients. Here are some of our tips on how to get free backlinks to your site.

* Be Innovative Let such a way that readers would think - "Damn! Why did not I think that before? "

Which means that the content should be simple and related to the topic everyone knows, but in a way that they would never think of. It's not easy to think of something like that every other hari.Tetapi if you can manage to squeeze in at least a few every week, that should do the trick.

* Be the first to melaporkan.Ini easier if you are a technician and watch the blog / news site. All you have to do is report the sensational news for the first time. Being first is very complicated - because sometimes the news is so common and popular, when you post, millions will be posted at the other end. So you have to find some loophole to get the best news first. A very effective method is to read all the blog news by grabbing an RSS feed on your favorite RSS news reader.
* Review with twist.Anggaplah there is a software that you enjoy wearing. And you think, why not do a review / study on software page. But you've seen 143 reviews on various blogs on the same software.

So what do you do? Collect data from all the blogs and see what the common points in them, since you are very familiar with the software, it's more likely that you will find something that they have missed.
* Write content with the participation of the user (reader). It makes no sense if you just wrote an excellent article explaining about the technical or code you have "magic" that you develop, if readers do not enjoy it. It's more like watching TV - you prefer reality shows rather than news channels (at least most of us). So wrote the article with the participation of the reader, or at least attack their mindset and their provocation to write about it on their blog. This works if you emphasize the right note!

How To Stay Focus and Handling We Frustration in the Running Internet Business

In various forums online business, I often see posts about how people end up quitting their jobs to start a business online / internet marketing. This is good news for them - eventually became a netpreneur or for their own boss, have an entire day to themselves, and can start their own business.

On other days, I've also seen posts that talk about the difficulties and desperation in an effort to find uan on the internet. They are the people who are just starting out or those who have been there for a while and have not seen the results they expect in the beginning. Usually boils down to a "problem" mentality they have. One that I see often is a lack of focus and consistency.

I think many people have this problem. No matter if you are an Internet marketing expert with a bunch of billions of income such as John Chow or a newbie who only produce a few cents per month from AdSense, we all have problems or difficulties from time to time. And you know ..? While it seems nyantai and no problems .. .. I own an online business blog admin is actually 3 months .. is facing a serious problem .. How serious is this for 3 months .. .. almost 2 my blog banned by google ... And this blog generate hundreds of dollars every month ... .. As a result of my google adsense earnings drop dramatically .. Well you know ...? But I choose to react to it with ease .. .. do not panic and immediately made the decision to buy some new domains and build a blog stone to replace the blog has been banned .. Well .. that's the difference between the mentality of a successful and a loser .. :)

The remarkable thing about internet marketing (online business) is that whoever you are starting a 16-year-old high school student to a retired 50-year-old retiree can run an Internet business, but it's also like a double-edged sword. Not everyone will have the focus and discipline to pull off a successful business.

I have been interested in the productivity for a long time and narrow down my niche to focus.

The question I ask is what makes a person able to sit down and write 6000-word article for five hours non-stop, compared with people who have difficulty leaving relevant comments on a blog that takes five minutes to read? Why would someone be able to buy products and apply it for seven days, while others can buy the product and completely forget about it after you watch a video clip that ensures they are to achieve earning $ 3,000 per month?

This is an interesting question, not just for the internet business, but for any type of work in general.

Here are some examples of different things you might be good at:

Build Content

Make the article, post or video to your audience

Product Creation

Making or using other people's products that meet market needs, design a sales page, and create graphs for a product

Website Design

Choosing a website template and tweaking the HTML or CSS to make websites look more attractive

Search Engine Optimization

Perform on-page SEO, off-page SEO, and backlink building

Website Promotion

Going on the web 2.0 sites like Google +, Facebook, Twitter and build relationships with people in your niche

In the world of Internet Marketing, at one point or another, you will have to be a creator, designer, or promoter. There are so many things for sure that people will be overwhelmed because they want to do two, three, or all at once. Most people are frustrated because they want a successful Internet business in a flash .. then they do not focus and tried everything .. .. and with what result? None of what they do will succeed ..:)

When I realized that I want to buy hosting and domain name in March 2011, I began to write anything more than content to the site in early February.

During March, I made my website and doing web designing. I always see myself as a writer, and certainly not a website designer, so seeing all kinds of code scares me, but I learned by asking experts in forums such as WordPress.org and the theme of my forum. Most people are very helpful if you just ask.

In April, I researched everything I could about the focus and finish writing an e-book about it. I can add it to my website and proud that I can also get it out there.

Since May and June, I've been trying to do SEO and website promotion including forums blog commenting, posting, and now guests posting.

Sit down and focus hard for everyone, even more so now because of more advanced technology, making information more easily spread to the world at a faster pace. But like anything else, takes practice. You are not given the skills by reading books.

While I can not speak for everyone, here are some tips I've learned along the way to help me better focus and to help newbies or people who are struggling in online business:

1. Define clearly what you want to achieve from internet marketing. Do you want to generate passive income $ 10 per day or $ 5,000 per month; could become the world's best bloggers in your niche or get out of your house and not financially dependent of your parents.

2. Get to know your current situation. Be honest with yourself here. The closer you are to the truth, you will find little resistance when it reaches what you want.

3. Break down your goals in a realistic segments. By realistic, I mean taking a piece of your goals is not so easy that you feel anything when you get there, but not so loud that it's impossible to do. You must find a balance between the two. For me, I dedicate a month or about 30 days to either build content, product creation, website design, or SEO.

4. Focus on doing one thing at a time. Once you've broken your goal, the tasks in front of you should be less intimidating and can be done. Getting rid of all distractions, and just consider one thing to completion. You will be tempted to try and multitask, because it's part of human nature, but remember that research has shown multitasking to reduce the efficiency of a person's weight. If you fall off track, do not blame yourself. Just gently back to what you do. Again, like anything else, this will take practice.

5. Focus on your progress. Progress is everything. People complain because of what they do not have, but not grateful for what they have. If you always worry about what you want in the future but do not have now, that is 100% formula for frustration. Any kind of progress you do today is look at what you have at the moment and it is a formula for 100% satisfaction. Aiming to progress and aim for growth because these are the things that remind you of how far you've gone and how much better you can get.

As long as you know where you are now, know where you want to go, and take action every day, you will eventually reach your goal. You may fail many times, you may have to change course, and you may take longer than you first expected, but at least you'll get results that are supported by your actions, and not another story to tell people.

I hope my experience will help other newbies out there who are currently facing difficulties and frustration of trying to succeed in internet marketing world is crazy. Stay focused and continue to take action

Cashing the Czech

Cashing the Czech

Whether Robert Maxwell committed suicide or was murdered may never be known to the public ...

Suffice it to say the disgraced publishing magnate cheated so many people and financial institutions to such an extent that there wouldn't be a paucity of suspects if it was the latter. Born in Slatinske Dòly to poor parents as Jan Ludvick Hoch and Anglicizing his name when he migrated to Great Britain during World War II, Maxwell used the fog of combat to his advantage, picking off a scientific journal distributorship at a bargain rate. He soon parlayed that into more literary acquisitions and doing so with such aplomb, he even gained election to Parliament.

However, a trail of deceit began soon thereafter, which led to a High Court censorship, then to possible war crime allegations and, ultimately, to an amazing web of falsified balance sheets and deceptive bank loan collateral which masked Maxwell's mass looting of his own publishing empire's coffers. When all was about to come crashing down upon him, Maxwell was reported to have fallen overboard while yachting along the Canary Islands. His extensive double-dealing earned him the posthumous title of The Bouncing Czech.

Maxwell's bombastic ego, though, was authentic. He ached to be larger than life and to outdo any perceived rival, such as Australian billionaire Rupert Murdoch, whose own publishing empire spans the globe. Ironically, Maxwell tried to seize any opportunity to portray Murdoch as a low-life, casting himself as a higher-minded alternative to the conscientious consumer. Thus, to counter Murdoch's titillation-themed, Tory-leaning tabloid, the Sun, Maxwell ran his Daily Mirror as a seemingly kinder, gentler, Labour-oriented purveyor of similar stories.

Maxwell always ran a distant second in the United Kingdom's tabloid wars, so he was constantly looking for an edge with which to tweak Murdoch's operations and further convey the image --- however cynical --- of his holding the higher social and ethical ground. I can attest that, at least once, a blend of this obsession and his blowhard personality got the better of him.

It was a summer day in the mid-80s, and the prospects of secondary smoke being a health issue in the workplace were beginning to be accepted as fact. It was surely noble for Cap'n Bob --- as Maxwell was derisively known --- to be among the first to attempt an office-wide smoking ban. The Mirror's headquarters was no doubt better served, but it was clear his motives were for self-promotion rather than a genuine concern for his employees' welfare.

The first clue that this was the case was the boisterous manner by which Maxwell arbitrarily enforced the policy. Specifically, he loved to make a scene if it showed him in an authoritarian and positive light. Thus, when Cap'n Bob proclaimed a ban, he did it for maximum effect. In this instance, he decreed that anyone caught smoking in his building would be fired on the spot.

On this day, Maxwell was holding court for visitors of some dignified nature. He was guiding them through the Mirror facilities when a man hunched over a nearby photocopy machine caught his attention. The man had a cigarette dangling from his lips.

Cap'n Bob summoned his guests to follow him over there. Puffing his chest as he approached the man puffing away, Maxwell began his diatribe within steps of his quarry and gained decibels with each successive step.

"Sir!" he exclaimed, "How much do you make a month?"

The target of his wrath was caught off-guard. It took him a moment to confirm that Maxwell was speaking to him; actually, 'at him' would be more accurate.

"I asked you a question," Maxwell pressed, making sure that his guests totally understood who was in charge of the moment, "And I expect a prompt answer. How much do you make a month!"

"2000 quid," was the nervous response. "Why do you ask?"

"You're smoking!" was the roared retort. Cap'n Bob then reached into his pocket in preparation for the coup de grace. He pulled out a wad of bills, quickly sifted through £2000 and jammed it into the surprised man's shirt pocket.

"There's a month's wage! You're fired! Now, get out!"

Maxwell then stormed away, his cotillion of impressed guests following dutifully behind. A strong boss had surely made a firm point.

Left in the wake, the stunned man retrieved the stash of cash from his pocket, looked at it and then shook his head in amazement.

"I was just called here to repair the copier," he shrugged. He put the money in his pants pocket, flicked a few ashes to the ground, headed toward the front door and proceeded to his van. Perhaps he had more calls to make that day, but he probably opted to cancel them and make his way to a pub, instead.

The incident capsulized Cap'n Bob's act in a nutshell. He was all show, with little attention to detail. It was a harbinger that whenever someone paid close heed to his affairs, he'd be sunk.

I just didn't think it would happen so literally.
