Ewen Macdonald received police diversion for poaching on private land in Taihape with Callum Boe in 2006.
Documents unsealed by the High Court at Wellington also show slain Feilding farmer Scott Guy once told his sister, Nikki, that Macdonald was "the worst thing that happened to our family" and the farm would be better off without him.
The fresh revelations have emerged after Fairfax Media was granted access to the court file on Macdonald, who was acquitted last month of murdering his brother-in-law, Mr Guy.
They come after Justice Simon France lifted suppression on three further charges admitted by Macdonald when he was arrested for murder in April last year.
The jury at Macdonald's trial did not hear how he and Boe used a hammer to kill 19 calves belonging to Foxton farmer Paul Barber in August 2007.
They also emptied a milk vat on the neighbouring farm of Nigel Sexton and his father Graham Sexton that same day, and then burned down a 120-year-old duck shooting whare belonging to the Sextons in March 2008.
Macdonald still faces sentencing for those crimes along with three others that were revealed in court.
Boe has already been jailed for his part.
In committal statements, viewed yesterday, Macdonald's father Kerry Macdonald said his son and Boe also got caught after they choppered into public land near Taihape in 2006 and walked on to the Wipaki family farm where they shot a Sika deer.
Kerry Macdonald said he learned about the incident after someone asked him if Ewen had been to court yet, prompting him to ask his son.
The committal documents - which are witness statements used by the prosecution to justify putting a person on trial - also featured evidence from Mr Barber and the Sextons that show Macdonald was poaching on their property.
Mr Barber told police he found a deer carcass on his land in 2007 with its head and back legs removed.
In June that year, he and a friend went out at night to hunt and found a white utility on his land with a letter addressed to Scott Guy on the front seat.
Mr Barber called police after learning from Mr Guy's father, Bryan Guy, that Macdonald had the utility at that time.
About six weeks later, Mr Barber was told by a farm worker that something was wrong with some of his calves.
"I got to the shed and I could tell that about 18-20 calves were dead, killed by a sharp blow to the head."
"I was sickened by what I saw."
About the same time, neighbouring farmers Nigel Sexton and his father Graham Sexton also found animal carcasses and unknown human tracks on their Foxton farm.
They pointed the finger at Macdonald, who originally denied it, but then said it was "just that easy" and their property was not the only one he had been poaching on.
Kerry Macdonald said he confronted his son about the poaching and said. "you've got to f...ing admit what you've done."
The motivation behind Macdonald and Boe's crimes was revealed in September when Boe appeared in Queenstown District Court and was sentenced to two years' jail for his offending.
The details of that appearance were suppressed until this week.
In sentencing notes obtained by The Dominion Post, Judge Kevin Phillips said Boe's explanation for the crimes against Mr Barber and the Sextons was retribution for being trespassed from the area.
Boe was spoken to shortly after the murder because he had worked on the Feilding farm co-managed by Macdonald and Mr Guy.
He admitted illegally hunting on the Barber and Sexton properties between 100 and 200 times but denied any involvement in the crimes against Mr Guy.
The High Court committal documents also included a brief of evidence from Nikki Guy.
In it, she recounted a conversation with Scott Guy at a concert in 2008 when he told her how he disliked Macdonald and thought the farm would be better off if he wasn't there, the court documents reportedly show.
"He said that Ewen was the worst thing that happened to our family."
Justice France noted Mr Guy was "intoxicated and probably affected by drugs" at the time, according to the report.

Lighter than ever before. The new Pro Handlebar / Seatpost / Pole mount from GoPro is now even lighter than the previous models. Professional cyclists, like the riders of the Tour de France, use GoPro cameras to capture views of the race that a bigger camera just can't. But when the bikes are made to such specific weights, every gram counts, so mounts needed to be lighter. GoPro rose to this challenge and produced an aluminium mount that the pro cyclists are more than happy with. It clamps into position with hex head bolts that can be tightened with the 4mm Allen key included. The top of the mount can swivel 360 degrees for the absolute best recording view possible, then locked in position with the Allen key. This mount can fit tubes with diameters ranging from 22.2mm up to 35mm.
• Light & durable aluminum construction• Lets you rotate your GoPro camera 360 degrees for unlimited capture options• Features an ultra compact footprint for mounting in tight spaces• Secures to 22.2 to 35mm diameter tubes
In the box:• Pro Handlebar/Seatpost/Pole Mount• 4mm Hex Key• Five Rubber Inserts• Drawstring Storage Bag

Control Cholesterol Levels by Eating Healthy FoodsBy: Swastika Bose on: Mar 15, 2016 at: 01:02:36
Your blood cholesterol level has a lot to do with your chances of getting heart disease. High blood cholesterol is one of the major risk factors for heart disease. The solution to control cholesterol lies right in your kitchen.
1. Beans and lentils help lower cholesterol
Beans, lentils and peas are good source of soluble fibre which helps lower cholesterol levels. Beans and pulses are high in fibre, high in protein and low in fat. Beans also contain lecithin, a nutrient that lowers cholesterol.
Fatty fish like Salmon, Tuna, Halibut are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids that has many heart protective properties and also helps improve your blood cholesterol profile.. Just be sure to bake or grill the fish, not fry it.
Avocados, Peanut butter, Hazelnuts, Almonds and Pecans contain heart-healthy MUFA, which helps lower Cholesterol levels. Olive and Peanut oils are also rich in monounsaturates. Note all are high in fat calories.
Soluble fiber found in oats and oat bran, barley, brown rice, helps lower Cholesterol. Soluble fiber binds to bile acids and cholesterol an helps their excretion. Beans, apples, carrots also contain soluble fiber.
Nuts contain plant sterols and monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which lower the LDL (bad) cholesterol. Nuts (Almonds, Walnuts, Pistachio, Pecans) are rich in heart healthy - fiber, Vitamin E and Selenium.
Apples, Pears, Oranges and Grapefruit contain soluble fibre, which helps lower cholesterol. Include other soluble fibre rich foods such as psyllium, barley, apples, pears, kidney beans.
Fruits like Blueberries, Cranberries and Grapes, protect LDL (bad) Cholesterol from being damaged. Only damaged Cholesterol forms sticky plaques that may lead to development of Atherosclerosis and increase risk of heart disease.
Foods that are fortified with plant sterols and stanols, substances naturally found in many plant foods, unds help block the absorption of cholesterol into the bloodstream. Foods such as orange juice and yogurt drinks are often fortified with sterols and stanols.
9. Walnuts help lower cholesterol
Walnuts contain monounsaturated fats that helps reduce total cholesterol and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels. Omega-3 fats and antioxidants in Walnuts work to reverse the arterial damage caused by saturated fats.

A visit to the Red kites of Gigrin Farm, near Rhyader in WalesGigrin Farm is tucked away in a fold of a valley in Mid-Wales, though not at all difficult to find. (Head for Rhyader and follow the signs.) Gigrin Farm is a working farm that has become synonymous with red kites, but there is a great deal more to see and do than just the kites. Mid-Wales has the widest diversity of birds in southern Britain, and you can see plenty of them on and around Gigrin Farm. Several buzzards have learned that they can get a free meal alongside the kites, and magpies and crows will be there too.
There is a trail around the farm that will easily take an hour, so either try to arrive at least 1 hour 15 minutes before the kite feeding, or leave time afterwards to walk about. (Feeding happens at 14.00 GMT, NB in British summer time that is 3PM, but 2PM the rest of the year.) Like any good sporting event it is good to get into the grandstands 10-15 minutes before kick off to get a decent seat and soak up the atmosphere. The meat being fed to the kites is beef, all fit for human consumption. As much as 1/4 tonne of meat is needed every week, and that is where much of the entrance fee goes.
Details of how to visit Gigrin Farm Red kite feeding station.
500 red kites.
The kites start gathering before the appointed time and numbers build up as the hour approaches. Once you hear the sound of the tractor approaching, there will usually be anything up to 200 kites in summer, and as many as 500 in winter.
Wildlife trail around the farm
The trail leads past the top of the kite feeding station to a rudimentary hide overlooking a small wetland. Thence across a field or two to some high level ponds, where a path branches off to up onto the moorland. You then wind back across a couple of fields and down through a small dingle to the kite feeding hides. There is a badger sett on the farm, and polecats and otters have both been seen recently.
While on the farm, aside from kites and buzzards, you may see birds such as Goshawk, black cap, dipper, hen harriers, redpoll, skylark, kestrel, woodcock, curlew, merlin and many more.
Kite feeding
Once the tractor has arrived on site, a large quantity of beef chunks get thrown around the feeding site. The kites are incredibly acrobatic, and their flight pattern has just been revealed by the BBC's super high quality and high speed cameras, which showed previously unseen (they were way too fast for the naked eye) wing movements. The show lasts 20-30 minutes as the kites swoop and squirm down to collect the chunks of beef, or steal it from one of the crows already on the ground. The sky is just full of the birds and it is easy to be blasé, but we shouldn't forget that in the 1960's there were just 30 red kites in the whole of Britain, all resident in Mid Wales.
Once you have had your fill wander up and have an ice-cream and cup of tea from the shop, or have a quick look around the red kite museum/info centre.
Best kite photos
The kites make for some spectacular photography, but the best time to go to get photos is when the ground is covered in snow, providing a huge light reflector and thus lighting the undersides of the kites, which is what you see most of. To this end Gigrin Farm have created a 'Snow Alert', click here.
Red kite history
Red kite numbers in the UK probably reached an all-time low in the 1930s when the population was less than 20 birds, and most of these were unable to rear young. In fact recent work on kite genetics has suggested that during the low-point only a single female's offspring survived to raise young. Not surprisingly, numbers increased very slowly in the 1940s and 1950s, helped no doubt by the reduction of persecution during the war years, so that by 1960 there were some 30 or so kites resident in Wales.
In about 1970, an immigrant female Red Kite from central Europe joined the Welsh breeding population - detected by genetic research on blood samples taken from Welsh kite chicks - and added a new bloodline. With further protection and invaluable help from the farmers on whose land the kites nested, numbers continued to recover so that by 1993, after experiencing a dramatic increase in breeding success over the preceding 4 or 5 years, the Welsh breeding population exceeded 100 breeding pairs.
In fact the red kites in Mid Wales are now so numerous, that they are being used as a seed population for other reintroduction schemes across the UK and Ireland, and it is possible, and indeed very easy in some places, to see red kites in many places across the country.

Indian Projectile Points
Stone tips for spears and arrows have been found by the millions throughout Georgia. Such stone tips are commonly referred to as "arrowheads." Paleoindian Period. Curiously, these were the most technologically complex points ever made in the state. In the following Archaic Period, a series of generally smaller points were made. These were used for spear point tips or knives but not arrow tips, which were invented much later.
All stone points are called projectile point/knives (PPKs) by archaeologists, since it is impossible to distinguish between a stone point and a stone knife. The Early Archaic PPKs had notches placed on the sides or near the base. In the Middle Archaic Period, the PPKs had simple rounded bases with no notches, and in the Late Archaic Period, the PPKs were large and had square stems at the base.
Some archaeologists believe the bow and arrow was invented at the beginning of the Woodland Period, about 1000 B.C., when the points become much smaller. During this period some points had stems, and some were shaped like large shark teeth. Most archaeologists are certain that by the end of
As with pottery, innovation in projectile point styles was quite limited at any particular time. Toolmaking skills were passed down from father to son, who worked hard to adhere to the proper pattern. Toolmaking changed gradually over hundreds of years, and no one likely saw any change in stone-tool technology during his or her lifetime.
For every fully formed PPK, probably dozens of other stone tools and hundreds (or perhaps thousands) of pieces of unused stone debris were littered in human habitations all over Georgia. These are generally not as identifiable to specific time periods by archaeologists, but they are studied in detail because they exist in such quantities; they can reveal information about past Indian societies.
Piedmont and Blue Ridge areas are rich in crystal and milky quartz. While not as easily worked as chert, quartz was used in great quantities by Indians in those areas. Exchange of stone across the different areas of the state was very common during some periods.

DENVER, Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Shopping for a car can be a stressful time, full of either too much or too little information, vague places to start researching and comparing, or simply no access to what is needed to be known to comfortably purchase a vehicle. That's why Planet Honda near Denver, Colo. has put together several different pages to demonstrate the many differences between Honda vehicles and its closest competitors. With several of Honda's heaviest and more durable vehicles up against their closest rivals, the numbers simply show that the quality that Honda has to offer buyers.

One of the premier Honda vehicles on the market is the 2014 Honda Pilot, which when compared to either the 2014 Ford Explorer or 2014 Toyota Highlander, not only holds its own, but actually outdoes its closest competition. Whether it's offering more storage space for families, or its high fuel economy coupled with its massive power, the Pilot holds up well and comes out ahead.
Meanwhile, the 2014 Honda Ridgeline, a truck made for both durability and comfort, far exceeds expectations when put against the numbers the 2014 Nissan Frontier offers. The Ridgeline's ingenious design allows for five passengers, one more than the Frontier, all while still providing all-wheel drive and a larger capacity for a heavy payload.
Finally, the 2014 Honda CR-V is compared to the 2014 Ford Explorer. While they share many features, the CR-V manages to offer more space, more power and better fuel economy in the city. Honda's small crossover SUV is a versatile family friend vehicle, so it should be no surprise that it offers more.
For more information on all these vehicles and how they stack up against the competition, simply call Planet Honda near Denver, CO at 303-215-4200 or visit them at www.planethonda.com.

Go Craig! Looks like I should wake up at 4am (7am est) with you.
By EurasiaNet. Originally published at ValueWalk.
The Trans-Adriatic Pipeline is a key element of Azerbaijan's efforts to export its greatest source of wealth, its Caspian Sea natural gas deposits, to European markets. It is also a cornerstone of the European Union's strategy to weaken Russia's hold on European gas markets.
The pipeline's route, however, passes through ancient olive groves and over pristine beaches in the Italian region of Puglia, which relies on that bucolic landscape for its major industry, tourism.
That has set up a standoff between global energy interests and local environmental activists. And with a December referendum in Italy that reinforced local governments' autonomy, the anti-pipeline activists have – if only temporarily – gained the upper hand.
The pipeline is currently under construction by a consortium of companies, with Azerbaijan's state energy company SOCAR holding a 20 percent share. It is being funded in part by the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development, which required an environmental and social impact assessment in order to approve funding. The Italian government approved the project in 2014, provided the consortium met more than 50 conditions aimed at minimizing the damage caused by the pipeline.
A year later, the Italian Ministry of Economic Development certified that the consortium had fulfilled all those requirements. But several local officials, including the governor of the Puglia region and the mayor of Melendugno, where the pipeline is supposed to reach land, have bucked the central government and continue to insist that their concerns have not been met.
The most contentious issue is that of a grove of 1,900 olive trees that the consortium planned to move while the pipeline is being constructed and then move back when it is done. But transplanting the trees – some of which are more than 1,000 years old – is a delicate operation, and local officials argue that the pipeline consortium doesn't have an adequate plan to make sure it is done safely. Local officials also have expressed concerns about the last leg of the pipeline, which is supposed to come out of the Adriatic Sea on to a remote beach at San Basilio.
Italy is not the only site of environmental protests against TAP. The pipeline has also faced opposition in the other countries it passes through, Greece and Albania. But it is Italy where the protests have a real chance of disrupting…

In the 3rd edition of University Economics, Armen Alchian and William Allen state that "an unlimited number of jobs are available in a world of scarcity."
Entrepreneurial innovation marshals resources in new and creative ways so that desires once too costly to satisfy become cost-effective to satisfy.
This is indisputable. The existence of scarcity implies the existence of desires as yet unmet. The challenge is to discover and arrange opportunities to use resources in ways that cost-effectively allow us to satisfy as many as possible of these desires.
Most human desires are not worth satisfying, for the costs of satisfying these low-ranking desires – namely, the subjective value to us of desires that must go unmet in order to use whatever resources are used to satisfy low-ranking desires – are too high. For example, for me to satisfy my desire to know how to play the piano is too costly, as I judge matters. While I'm confident that knowing how to play the piano would give me positive pleasure, the time and effort that I must sacrifice to gain this knowledge is too great. So I will likely go to my grave not knowing how to play the piano.
And what is true for me and piano-playing is true for me and the playing of the clarinet, the trumpet, the flute, the trombone, the guitar, and lots of other musical instruments. My desire to know how to play these musical instruments ranks too low, in my scale of preferences, to justify my actually taking the steps necessary to satisfy this desire. So these desires of mine go unmet.
But suppose that some entrepreneurial genius invents a teaching method that dramatically lowers the cost of learning how to play the piano. By using this revolutionary new method, I can learn to play the piano quite well in a mere three-hours time. And further suppose that the inventor of this method is soon obliged by the forces of market competition to charge no more than $99 per person to teach someone through this method to play the piano. In this case, I would learn to play the piano.
As long as there is scarcity, there are unmet human desires.

After Donald Trump delivered his first speech as President of the United States, evangelist Franklin Graham took the stage and said:
"Mr. President, in the Bible, rain is a sign of God's blessing. And it started to rain, Mr. President, when you came to the platform."
One wonders what Noah might have thought of this scriptural analysis.
It is telling that the reverend would contribute to the inauguration, not only a benediction, but an interpretation of an omen. Our custom of inaugurating government officials derives from the ancient religious practice of investing kings and magistrates with power through a ceremony in which a priest interpreted natural events as signs that a god favored the office-holder.
In ancient Rome, the officiating priest who would read such "auspices" (specifically, the flight pattern of released birds) was called an "augur" (thus our Latin-based word "inauguration"). The historian Livy (59 BC – AD 17) related the first inauguration of a Roman king (circa 715 BC) as follows (emphasis added):
"And so they unanimously voted to offer the sovereignty to Numa Pompilius. Being summoned to Rome [Numa] commanded that, just as Romulus had obeyed the augural omens in building his city and assuming regal power, so too in his own case the gods should be consulted. Accordingly an augur (who thereafter, as a mark of honour, was made a priest of the state in permanent charge of that function) conducted him to the citadel and caused him to sit down on a stone, facing the south.
The augur seated himself on Numa's left… and, laying his right hand on Numa's head, he uttered the following prayer:
"Father Jupiter, if it is Heaven's will that this man Numa Pompilius, whose head I am touching, be king in Rome, do thou exhibit to us unmistakable signs within those limits which I have set." He then specified the auspices which he desired should be sent, and upon their appearance Numa was declared king, and so descended from the augural station."
The "augury" offered by Reverend Graham was only the latest in a millennia-old tradition. Opponents of Trump have denounced it as an intrusion of superstitious religiosity into our secular governing institutions. But in truth, Graham's divination…

Tom Steyer, the Billionaire founder of the hedge fund Farallon Capital, spent $87mm funding liberal campaigns and ballot measures all across the country in 2016 and got absolutely nothing in return but a Republican-controlled Congress and White House. Something tells us the 2016 election cycle was one of the worst "investment" ROI's of Steyer's life.
But despite his stunning losses, like Obama, Steyer is convinced that Americans still overwhelming agree with liberal policies…it's just that those policies aren't being explained well enough for people to understand them. Per The Hill:
He said he still believes most voters agree with Democratic ideals, though the party didn't effectively convey them in November.
"I think there's no doubt that we reflect the will of the people to an overwhelming extent. I don't think we were successful in conveying the
spirit behind those policies, and I don't think we were successful in transmitting the urgency behind those policies," Steyer told The Hill.
While the economy added millions of jobs under former President Barack Obama, the recovery from the worst recession since the Great Depression brought with it stagnant wage growth. Steyer said that drove voters away from Democrats, who shepherded the slow-growth economy during Obama's eight years in office.
Sure, because it couldn't possibly be that the electorate actually understands the following data, or at least feels the impact of the Obama "economic recovery" farce in their daily lives, and chose to try something new. Perhaps Steyer could more "successfully convey" why the following facts about Obama's "economic recovery" are positive for the majority of Americans.
But, unlike many political hopefuls and the majority of the establishment in Washington D.C., at least Steyer is somewhat self-aware. After considering a run for the California Governor's seat, Steyer admits that the 2016 election cycle left him, as well as the mainstream media, completely confused about the priorities of American voters.
He had expected to make a decision about whether to run for governor, he said, in a world in which Hillary Clinton had taken the presidential oath of office, not Trump.
"The truth of the matter is, it's different. The world did not play out on November 8 the way I expected

By most mainstream media accounts, the first weekend of the Trump Administration wasn't good. Characterized as rocky, erratic, terrible, and full of false claims, the 'not ready for prime time' transition team is now the 'not ready for prime-time administration.' However, as Bespoke details, by at least one measure, though, the Trump Administration's transition has been pretty smooth… the smoothest ever for markets.
The table below was from this week's Bespoke Report newsletter and shows how the DJIA performed from Election Day through Inauguration Day for each newly elected President since 1896. Along with the DJIA's performance during each transition, we also show the maximum percentage decline the index saw from a closing high during each period.
With a gain of 7.62% during Trump's transition, the DJIA had its second best transition performance since 1896.
More importantly, with a maximum decline of 1.2% from a closing high, no other newly elected President has ever seen a less volatile transition period!
Call it whatever you want, but from the stock market's perspective at least, the Trump transition was the smoothest ever.

As we previewed and was widely expected, President Trump has just signed 3 executive orders: one officially withdrawing the US from the Trans Pacific Partnership, a second one instituting a federal hiring freeze except for the military, and a 3rd executive order limiting abortion funding overseas.

"It's a great thing for the American worker, what we just did," Trump said on Monday after signing an order withdrawing the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership accord with 11 other nations. He didn't sign any actions to direct a renegotiation of the Nafta accord with Mexico and Canada, yet he said on Sunday he would begin talks with the two leaders on modifying the accord, BBG reported. "We've been talking about this a long time," Trump said.

— Bloomberg TV (@BloombergTV) January 23, 2017
As the AP notes, the move is basically a formality, since the agreement had yet to receive required Senate ratification. Trade experts say that approval was unlikely to happen given voters' anxiety about trade deals and the potential for job losses. It remains unclear if Trump would seek individual deals with the 11 other nations in TPP— a group that represents roughly 13.5 percent of the global economy, according to World Bank figures. Trump has blamed past trade deals such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and China's entrance into the World Trade Organization for a decline in U.S. factory jobs.
Trump's trade focus fulfills a campaign promise to rewrite America's trade policy during his first days as president. In declaring his determination to renegotiate Nafta, Trump would rework an agreement that has governed commerce in much of the Western hemisphere for 22 years. By scrapping the Trans-Pacific Partnership accord negotiated by former President Barack Obama, Trump will delight many of his most fervent supporters as well as a good many Democrats, while opening an economic vacuum in Asia that China is eager to fill.

Back in August, we reported of a fascinating case of crony capitalism, whereby Aetna gave the DOJ a not too subtle ultimatum which boiled down to the following: "If the Humana deal is blocked, we exit Obamacare."
Well, be careful what you wish for, because six months later, and with Obamacare well on its way out, moments ago a US federal judge blocked Aetna's $37 billion deal to buy rival insurer Humana, thwarting one of two large mergers that would reshape the U.S. health-care landscape. The judge's ruling, which was filed in Federal court in Washington, said the deal would be "anticompetitive"adding that the deal would have hurt competition among insurers. With the deal now scrapped, it means Aetna will owe Humana a $1 billion breakup fee.
Of course, with Obamacare on its way out, it would not be a surprise if the insurance companies would not have quietly preferred that the deal was blocked. For now, however, the shareholders of Aetna are less than excited, sending the stock of the company nearly 3% lower, while Humana was rebounded to almost unchanged after plunging as much as 7% in kneejerk reation.

There is one reason why bitcoin quickly became the darling of HFT and various high speed algo traders operating out of China and the rest of the world: domestic transactions were "frictionless", as there were no fees on buys or sells. Until last night, that is, because as China's three largest bitcoin exchanges, BTCC, Huobi and OkCoin, all said in separate statements on their websites late on Sunday, starting Tuesday they will charge traders a flat fee of 0.2% per transaction. This is only the latest fallout from the recent crackdown on Chinese bitcoin exchanges whose activities have drawn increased scrutiny from the central bank.
Each of the statements said assessing fees will "further curb market manipulation and extreme volatility".
One of the reasons why China has dominated bitcoin trading volumes in recent years, in addition to the US of the digital currency to bypass capital controls, has been the absence of trading fees which encouraged volumes and boosted demand at Chinese bitcoin exchanges. However, when the price of bitcoin soared to near-record highs – as this website predicted would happen in the summer of 2015 – driven by a stampede of Chinese momentum chasers, it attracted attention from Chinese regulators. Helping the surge, was the collapse in the yuan which weakened 6.6% against the dollar, its worst performance since 1994 as local savers sought the relative "safety" of bitcoin relative to the renminbi.
The standoff between local bitcoin traders and exchanges on one hand, and regulators on other culminated on Jan. 11, when the People's Bank of China launched spot checks on BTCC, Huobi and OkCoin to look into a range of possible rule violations, amid increasing government efforts to stem capital outflows and relieve pressure on the yuan. According to Reuters, citing "a person familiar with the matter", the exchanges had not received direct instructions from the PBOC, but decided to introduce trading fees to align with its wishes to see the bitcoin market cool down.
So far, the impact of the new fees has been negligible, with the price of Bitcoin on the BTCChina exchange largely unchanged overnight.
And as one bitcoin bubble fizzles, a new one appears to be born. Japan.

County labor report
Unemployment dips, but 900 non-farm jobs lost
Don Bauder 6:30 p.m., Jan. 20
District 2 San Diego councilmember Kevin Faulconer and Mayor Jerry Sanders announced on December 15 a new recycling program — the first of its kind in California — for a more environmentally safe method of transporting methane gas from Point Loma's wastewater treatment plant.
Last week, on December 8, the San Diego City Council unanimously adopted a plan that called for the recycling of the methane. The big change in the plan was the method of how the gas would be transferred — from using trucks to using pipelines instead. (Several Point Loma residents had voiced their concerns regarding the safety of the trucks.) The program will use existing SDG&E fuel lines to transport the methane, and the gas will be recycled and used.
Two local sites — UCSD and the South Bay Water Reclamation Plant — will receive the gas. The project is set to begin in 2011 and is expected to eliminate the release of 1 million cubic feet of methane gas daily.

Just when you are tempted to think that your past is over and done with, a dim reminder will suddenly leap out of nowhere and grab you by the throat. In a beautifully acted revival of Conor McPherson's elegiac play Port Authority at the Irish Repertory Theatre, three men almost a generation apart in age confront their individual remorse.
Under the astute direction of Ciaran O'Reilly, the stories of Kevin, Dermot, and Joe -- rendered with a pitch-perfect ear for the nuances of McPherson's poetic language by James Russell, Billy Carter, and Peter Maloney -- are spun out in alternating monologues that, like any good yarn, are both funn...
