Skip to comments.Trayvon Martin's parents settle wrongful death claim (One Million Dollars?)
Posted on 04/05/2013 10:03:45 AM PDT by Responsibility2ndEdited on 04/05/2013 10:16:00 AM PDT by Admin Moderator. [history]
SANFORD - Trayvon Martin's parents have settled a wrongful death claim for an amount believed to be more than $1 million against the homeowners association of the Sanford subdivision where their teenage son was killed.
Their attorney, Benjamin Crump, filed that paperwork at the Seminole County Courthouse, a portion of which was made public today.
(Excerpt) Read more at orlandosentinel.com ...
I dont see how the homeowners association could be liable for this. But our screwed up legal system allows a shakedown to avoid legal fees.
Wasn't he on Neighborhood Watch? In effect, working for the HoA?
Most Neighborhood watches are volunteer organizations. Although the HoA may have coordinated this one.
Why would O'Mara be privy to this??????????????????????
O'Mara said the two parties then renewed talks and agreed to settle several months ago.Trayvon Martin's parents settle wrongful death claim - Lodinews.com - April 5, 2013
Crump provided a copy of the settlement to O'Mara's office and the judge Thursday, according to a cover page attached to the settlement that was placed in the case file.Trayvon Martin's parents settle wrongful death claim - Lodinews.com - April 5, 2013
If the residents agree with this, then I hope some liberal judge raises it to $100,000,000 and bankrupts them all.
I was just going to send that to you.
Nothing......That's why it was important that the Crump Scam Team get the DA to file charges against Zimmerman.
If I'm not mistaken, under the FL "stand your ground" law, you are protected from being sued if no charges are brought against you..........
This whole thing isn't about Zimmerman being convicted of any crime, the family could care less at this point. Their primary concern is the ultimate law suit for wrongful death that will be filed against Zimmerman himself even if he is found innocent.
It's all about the money...........
The approved neighborhood watch program which Zimmerman was a part of..........
If the dollar amount was determined several months ago, then they got top dollar or atleast the most that they could expect. It appears that it was settled at about the same time that the Defense began to turn up the heat on Crump and company. O'Mara wouldn't have gone easy on them for the first few months until they got their deal penned, would he???
IMO, the deal with the HOA would be independent of the criminal trial, at least to the extent that the HOA or insurer wanted to dispose of the headache before the criminal trial was concluded. As far as I know, O'Mara had no involvement in the HOA case. His hands are full with the criminal defense, and whatever action he's facilitated in the defamation suit against NBC.
-- O'Mara wouldn't have gone easy on them for the first few months until they got their deal penned, would he? --
I really don't understand O'Mara's strategy, other than to be low key. He has been very slow to apply the law to his advantage. I don't think he would go easy on Crump for any reason except to wait for evidence to accumulate, and wait for the court to process the requests to depose Crump. That process fully played out as of March 28, and O'Mara was pretty quick to act on the adverse decision. He'd been applying pressure for several months.
Not only that, but such equating of culture and race represents a form of racism far more damaging than mere discrimination.
Doesn't matter. They'll blow it all in six months on drugs, alcohol, and gambling.
Actually the worst of all possible things just happened to Sybrina and Tracey. Da hood now knows dat dey gots da money — and there will be hands out wanting payback for passing trashcans and promoting the Trayvon for sainthood tour.
It costs to pull together a demonstration and put out propaganda. And they are going to be saying the big payday that we expected didn't come and there will be some who won't believe them and will want da money. These people are all gonnna be sayin" "show me da money" or else no next time.
If dis money isn't spread around, the Trayvon express is going to be derailed.
Just FYI, Trayvon was delivering hot dinners to elderly white shut-ins for Meals on Wheels, when he came upon this portly hispanic gentleman repeatedly bashing his head against the concrete pavement in a bloody suicide attempt.
Setting down the warm dinners on top of his bible and his nuclear physics text, to insulate them from the colder ground, he compassionately rushed to the violent maniac's aid. The raving, almost-white lunatic began waving a semi-automatic pistol about and the heroic lad was shot while trying to wrest the gun away from the deranged racist maniac, who was almost white, or had noticeably white sort of genetic markers.
You probably did not know that Trayvon was a top student in his class, which due to GW Bush cutbacks has been unable to meet recently. He also played the cello, favoring Baroque composers, was a star athlete, and would have been an Eagle Scout, had the BSA not discriminated against blacks and gays at the express order of George W. Bush.
I demand justice here, UC! This Zimmerman who is almost white when seen from a distance, flouted FL state law when he brought a Keltec automatic to a fight. They are a dangerous assault weapon and must be banned, as the tragic demise of our Trayvon, this future Nobel Laureate has proven.
PS, Keltecs are doubly dangerous due to their notorious tendency to fire when the trigger is pulled ... or not ... or dropped. I have advised my colleague, Atty Crump to sue Keltec, as well.
actually that is not a high amount for a "wrongful death suit"...sounds like the association settled out of court for fear of jury manipulation that could have cost them more than that in lawyers fees even if they won the case (because if they win, the parents will keep appealing the decision). And with the wrong jury, they could lose ten times that much.
Such a small out of court settlement suggests the parents figured they'd lose in a fight.
A little tidbit:
Crump asked that the agreement remain confidential. However, the court has decided that there is no reason for the agreement to remain confidential, and is giving Crump 10 days to appeal that decision.
We have learned, that the homeowners associations insurance company did not have to pay out a claim on the case.
In his case he was delivering Skittles n Juice with Blunts on Jordans with a side order of Punch.
The Martins are happy now. They got paid...I predict the money will be gone in a year on partying, gambling, luxury automobiles, and vacation. You know sort of like Obama just 10 times less...
It would be funny if the insurance company took Crump's filing of the agreement as breach of the agreement, and sued for breach of contract.
Also this:
The judge knew more about this case than she let on.
Yes indeed. Her remark that she was "in the dark" about it was never credible to me. It's something that need not be said, and where saying it implies that the opposite is true.
Here's another question:
If O'Mara advised the HOA to settle the civil lawsuit, is that a conflict of interest regarding his representation of Zimmerman???
Assuming for the sake of argument that O'Mara is involved in making legal decision for the HOA, maybe, on a technicality, but I think no. While both cases have a nexus in the underlying event, the two defendants (HOA for civil damages and Zimmerman for a crime) have radically different basis for liability/guilt. Even if O'Mara represented Zimmerman in a civil case with the same underlying basis (death of Martin), he could advise a settlement in lieu of trial, and not be doing a disservice to his client.
From a wiki page (because it provides a reasonable simplification) ...
"A conflict of interest is a set of circumstances that creates a risk that professional judgment or actions regarding a primary interest will be unduly influenced by a secondary interest."I see no conflict between the HOA interests and Zimmerman's interests. HOA liability stands independently from Zimmerman's criminal case, and the outcome of a civil case against the HOA has no bearing whatsoever on the outcome of the state's criminal charge against Zimmerman. Said another way, it is possible for Zimmerman to be found innocent, and the HOA to be found liable, because the duty of the HOA is different from Zimmerman's right to defend himself.
I would say the lawyer and then the drug dealer. With any luck they will overdose.
That's a lot of Lottery Tickets. Whatever pittance they actually get after it filters through their lawyers' kidneys will be gone in six months.
We should have a class action suit and sue them for 1 million dollars for....we'll think of something.
The domestic terrorist trayvon got what he deserved and the perp was trespassing on private property. I think this is a spin by the liberal media for PR purposes.
Why would he risk that and file this with the court???
Everyone plays the legal system, now. Bush tried and failed to establish real tort reform. Frivolus law suits should lead to severe penalties.
The other side of the corrupt coin is the way corporations can grind you up in court. Someone close to me came up with location technology on the phone and Google is breaking his patents and threatening his major customers. Because Google and government is one, my friend might lose.
The whole judicial system is trash.
To establish that he is opposing counsel, which is a point of consideration in the issue of whether or not he may be forced to testify in the criminal case. O'Mara has appealed Nelson's order precluding him (O'Mara) from deposing Crump, and Crump thought it would be beneficial to have something on the record that tends to establish he is opposing a "not guilty" outcome in the criminal case.
From a legal point of view, I think it was a stupid move on Crump's part. Any court would accept that he is opposing counsel of a sort, just based on his statement of intention to sue Zimmerman.
From a PR point of view, well, read what people are saying about the case and about O'Mara, based on the filing. If nothing else, Crump has succeeded in creating a dense smoke screen.
Representatives of The Retreat at Twin Lakes subdivision at one point in the negotiations offered the Martin family a $1 million settlement, Shawn Vincent, a spokesman for Zimmerman's defense team, told Reuters.
The Sentinel reported on Friday that the settlement amount was crossed out of paperwork filed at the Seminole County Courthouse. Later in the day, the document appeared to have been withdrawn from public view.
Although a cover page indicated copies of the settlement were given to Zimmerman's lawyer and the judge presiding over the criminal trial, Vincent told Reuters that the defense team did not receive its copy.
Crump giveth and Crump taketh away —
LOL. Thanks for the pointer to that article. Crump is good at murk.
I'd like to see the original source for the contention that the judge gave Crump 10 days to argue against making the document public.
That's O'Mara's fault for opening his big mouth up about HOA case and say anything about it to the media.
To me it would have been wise for Liberty Mutual/HOA to have O'Mara on retainer to advise periodically about the status of the criminal case -- but that's all.
Any advice on settlement would and should have been out of bounds, and any statements regarding the HOA case and any inside information to the media should have been out of bounds as well.
Once again his big mouth has him in trouble.
I do agree, his "big mouth" got him in trouble. He has no obligation to tell the media anything, and he should know that the media is as much his enemy as is the state of Florida.
Crump is establishing that he is opposing counsel, for purposes of avoiding being deposed in the criminal case. I think filing the settlement agreement is unnecessary for that purpose, as his proffer that he is counsel for the Martins and he intends to sue Zimmerman is likely sufficient to establish him as "opposing counsel" in that sense.
Wouldn't a proffer from O'Mara that he does not intend to represent Zimmerman in any such civil suit trump that Crump proffer???
The only logical basis for liability for the HOA, and thus its insurer, is as you suggest: that the HOA was responsible for GZ's actions because it either sponsored, or condoned his work as Neighborhood Watch Captain, and that he was acting in that capacity when the shooting occured.
This has interesting implications. If the HOA accepts the argument that GZ was acting as its agent, why isn't the HOA liable for the cost of GZ's defense? It could argue that he was conducting himself negligently, or willfully improperly, but if the insurer feels the HOA was $1 Million + responsible for his conduct, that wouldn't seem to hold water.
Good Point. GZ may be suing the HOA next for that and maintaining an unsafe neighborhood watch environment.
Heh. That's me. I use the same handle all over the 'tubes.
-- Wouldn't a proffer from O'Mara that he does not intend to represent Zimmerman in any such civil suit trump that Crump proffer? --
I think proffers and counter-proffers just make things messy. O'Mara's best argument is the one the court did not address, and that is the point that Crump waived privilege as to the surfacing of Witness 8. At rock bottom, although he dare not say it (yet), the foundation for deposing Crump is that her testimony is the product of being coached by Crump. I think there is another dynamic at play, and that is the discrediting and perhaps sanctioning of Crump, as a lawyer. What better way to tamp down public sentiment, than to cut off people who lie in order to inflame passions.
Anyway, even assuming that Crump is opposing counsel (put him in Bernardo or Corey's shoes, if you want), that still does not get him off the hook as far as giving fact testimony. Obviously, he's not the prosecutor, so the court doesn't have the ugly situation of opposing lawyers in the instant case deposing one another. But even if it did, what O'Mara is seeking is not "privileged" as work product or as legal strategy.
Saying "everyone plays" the legal system is a blanket statement that is not true....however..and to remain on topic....Martin's parents filed lawsuits on the back of their dead son in order for monetary gain and notoriety, knowing from the get go they lied....and continued to lie about what happened and about who their son was.
I have zero sympathy for these parents.
Try spellcheck.
Petty? Yes. But considering your post to me, it is appropriate.
My original points remain the same.
A few comments were racial and I commented on them. The real and bigger problems remain with the overall justice system.
Glad to see that the racial stereotypes have abated.
You seem to be saying that his parents are glad he's dead. I will assume you have never lost a child. Perhaps you know these folks, personally?
I assumed that everyone knew that when attorneys smell a possible pay day, they come running to help.

"Petty? Yes...."
I'm certainly glad you recognize your own pettiness and need to attack others merely for the sake of making an attack.
My admonition ("Lighten up Francis!") to you still stands. I just wish you could control (if only a little) your apparent need to see racism in everything and your need to attack your fellow FReepers.
"maintaining an unsafe neighborhood watch environment."
That is a definite award winner — it works no matter which way you turn it.
I was thinking something mundane: "The HOA failed to provide effective training and supervision". They should have taught him gems like, don't pursue a presumed felon by yourself at night with no one watching your back.
It's all about the money and notoriety......on the back of their son's death....any morning is their personal business. Nobody's addressing that...it's their actions right from the very beginning that is more than objectional...they lied and they knew it...,what we saw and heard was all for show and what could be gained by their performance.
There own family member was responsible for contacting the attorney to bring suit...nobody went after them.

My Reaction To Finding Out My DNA Results And What Does This Mean?
So there's my genetic make-up, 70% African and 30% European. I do want to add something here that I left out from yesterday's post. In the supplemental information that African Ancestry sent with the test results, there is a section describing test accuracy. Here it is.
Now the thing that stood out for me the most after receiving my DNA results is this. That 70% African. Instantly, like a light switch, my focus in my head said, why am I focusing on the minority portion of my DNA so much. Not that it isn't important...it is. It's part of me. Now it turns out, it doesn't look like I have Native American ancestry.There is one thing to consider perhaps there are not enough DNA samples from Native Americans to rule this out, especially since there are number of Eastern Carolina tribes that no longer exist. The one thing that I go back to then for myself is okay, let's say they missed something...what would that be 2--10%? For me the test just handed me what Oprah calls a "light bulb" moment. Shouldn't I focus on what is the majority of me? So you know what this means. That's right more testing LOL! I have to now know what tribe, what area...yadayadayada. Time to save up some money :)
I am about to get a little silly now. On a lighter note, for all those ignorant people out there from my childhood who told me "Oh you think your white!" because I didn't talk a certain way or act a certain way or because I maintained good grades in school.
Hmmm, well I know I am white ......(wait for it) but only 30%. Hahahahaha.
Have a good day everybody!

You are too funny!!! Love your sense of humor and again, thank you for sharing your results and your feelings. I look forward to the next test results.ReplyDelete
Good luck with the next stage!!ReplyDelete
Please share the next stage when the results are in.ReplyDelete
Most of the African Americans in Craven County claiming Native American ancestry...probably 4, 5 or generations ago... Think about how many times the gene is split in that amount of time. We're talking 12.5% / 6.25% / 3.13% Native American ancestry. In order to claim or prove ancestry for Native American, you would have to find the tribe, and verify with the Tribal Historian. This is MUCH more difficult if it is not one of the 6 civilized tribes...and especially if it is NOT Cherokee (which I'm about 99.9% positive that is it not). I have discovered that it is very difficult for people to even gain trust by Native Americans concerning heritage.ReplyDelete
Personally, I believe that even our small percentages which cannot be traced should be proudly embraced...this is the melting pot. I don't find it particularly interesting that I am of European descent. I guess for me that would just be a DUH moment. ;-) But for me, finding out what makes me different is more interesting than the obvious. There are few Welsh, English and Jewish traditions and distinctions left in my family...and THAT's what I want to rediscover.
For everyone it's different. Happy hunting! :-)
Happy hunting Debra and you bring up a good point that with ever generation the percentage is going to dwindle down. Hey I still embrace the oral traditions passed down to me and will pass them down to my kids. I just found it interesting that genetically it's not there. Good point that it doesn't necessarily negate the stories passed down.ReplyDelete
I really enjoyed reading your post. There was one comment that made me sad, however.
On a lighter note, for all those ignorant people out there from my childhood who told me "Oh you think your white!" because I didn't talk a certain way or act a certain way or because I maintained good grades in school.
I spent my entire teaching career teaching predominately African-American students. I had MANY African-American students who suffered from comments like this. I hated hearing it and I hated the effects. In 30 years, however, I never came up with a solution. After all, I am white -- so the more support I tried to give to some of my students, the more likely they were to suffer from it behind the scenes. I wish I knew the solution to this one.

It is lightweight and therefore very maneuverable for a motorcycle of this size. It comes in three basic colours - white, black and yellow. The fuel tank holds 19 litres of nourishment for the 799cc 3 cylinder power plant.

"I saw this shoe on DSW's board, and fell in love. I bought it although I had never owned a pair of Chuck Taylors before. Love this shoe. It feels slightly long, but I think a 1/2 size down would be too small. It is incredibly comfortably and so cute. I can't wait until the Spring and Summer when I can wear it more often."

Skip to comments.President Obamas foreign policy is based on fantasy
Posted on 03/03/2014 1:32:22 PM PST by LeoWindhorse
FOR FIVE YEARS, President Obama has led a foreign policy based more on how he thinks the world should operate than on reality. It was a world in which the tide of war is receding and the United States could, without much risk, radically reduce the size of its armed forces.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
The left has been selling that fantasy his entire life. Why shouldn't he believe it?
So is his background, birthdate, college records, etc.
Hey, he stopped the oceans from rising and he is who we've been waiting for!!! OMG!! A Narcistic Communist.
His entire life is an elaborate fabrication.
Thanks for the breaking news, washington post.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And every last one of them would vote for him again.
Actually, he's who the communists/socialists
have been waiting and planning for.
Putin compares 0bama to playing chess with a pidgeon. The pidgeon walks around the board, knocking down pieces, crapping all over the place and then struts around as if he's won the match.
What would Obama do if China decided to occupy a Hawaiian island like Lanai or Russia took over some of the Alaska Aleutian Islands?
You got that right!
The key to this is who was Secretary of State during this "fantasy" time frame. I bet when she runs for president the post won't be singing this tune.
Bunch of racists.
no , Russia's interest had always been on Kauai
What's going on here? Is the WaPo finally tired of bleeding subscribers and advertisers?
Even the left is seeing through Obama now. The only people who fear him are the American people. And the only people who cheer his failures are the pro-Putin Neo-Imperialist Pseudo Conservatives. People who want a free and peaceful world say, "I told you so."
All I know is that if Woodward and Bernstein were still alive the WaPo would've been all over this years ago.
Just like his domestic policies.
He's the CANDY MAN!!!!
You mean if Woodward and Bernstein were principled men, or jut men...
The Washington Post has looked at the world through the eyes of the Democrat party. They didn't like that mean old cowboy Bush and those evil Republicans. The Democrats elected Obama President.....twice. This mess falls on the Democrat party. They didn't care that Obama was inexperienced and incompetent and could never be a good leader or manager. He could win the Presidential race, and that's all they cared about. The Editorial Board of The Washington Post should go and hang themselves.
His domestic policies are based on insane liberal fantasies.
Like his unaffordable care act, minimum wage wet dreams, and plans to tax the wage earners into poverty to share the wealth with the non producers.
What are you saying? You telling me they're still alive?
[ So is his background, birthdate, college records, etc.]
His economic polcies, his environmental policy, etc etc et al...
More like the one that the communists and soros have been training to be inserted here.
You're pulling my leg, right?
Partisan hacks
I totally agree , but isn't it wonderful that they are now eating their own ?

It's based on the fact that America causes harm and needs to be chopped down to size.
yet this same editorial board endorsed him and encouraged their readers to vote for him - now here come the consequences.
Welcome To Obama-World
But I just read an opinion column in the New York Times that claimed Obama's foreign policy has been a success because his expectations are based on reality, not how he thinks the world should operate.
I hope their tax records are up to date, the IRS will be knocking on their door in 5...4...3...2....
Jeff - this is worth reading. Seems not all people who write for the Washington Post live in Unicorn land...

There Will Be Blood, Our Own
by Angelo M. Codevilla
Combining the unbridled tongue with the unready hand. Thus did Theodore Roosevelt define statesmanship at its worst. This is what Americas bipartisan ruling class is giving us.
The Obama Administration tried buffering last weeks announcement that it is reducing the US Armys size to below its levels of 1940 (when the worlds population was less than one third what it is today) by suggesting that it would concentrate on mastery of the sea and of space. But the announcements not-so fine print envisaged cutting the number of US aircraft carriers, among other things. Like its predecessors, this administration is committed not to build the weapons that would let America secure orbital space for our own satellites and against ballistic missiles coming our way. As under its predecessors, this administration is devoting fewer and fewer dollars to weapons and to those who use them, while it diverts more and more to bureaucracy. Today, more than half of military personnel are behind desks.
The bottom line is that the United States of America has an increasingly hollow military. As politicians of both parties issue sonorous warnings and give inflammatory advice as if they were responsible for everything under the sun, American soldiers and sailors are spread around the globe, less feared and hence more hated, exposed to attacks against which they are less and less able to defend themselves. With ever less capacity to deal with the situations into which they are thrust, they are becoming symbols of American decline rather than of strength.
Consider East Asia, where the US Navy enforced Americas peace for three generations. Today Americas incapacity to deal with Chinas (and its North Korean surrogates) assertion of power over the Western Pacific is the catalyst of rising Japanese militarism and of the rest of the regions scramble for security. That incapacity is as political as it is military. While China is building a credible force of ballistic missiles, swarms of cruise missiles from sea and airborne platforms, as well as bottom-dwelling submarines to sink US Navy ships that come too close, our navy has shrunk in size, its pilots have less flight hours than their Chinese counterparts, and it lacks missile defenses. Moreover, the US government has been steady in its decision not to base its military position in the South China Sea on the unsinkable island of Taiwan. Too provocative.
But although the US preoccupation with not provoking China has not moderated Chinese military preparations, it surely has helped provoke the rebirth of Japanese militarism. Polls show that four fifths of Japanese view China as an enemy, but fewer than half have confidence in Americas help because they view America, correctly, as willing to sacrifice Japans interests to Chinas.
We Americans have maintained our version of peace in the Western Pacific not in the interest of Japan or of anyone else, but in our own. Should we, upon deliberation, decide not to impede Chinas assertion of power in the region, and to countenance whatever efforts (including nuclear ones) Japan will make to protect itself, it would make sense for us to withdraw our fleet from the region. Keeping it there without the military capacity or the political intention to maintain the Pax Americana would only get us into the middle of a war for stakes largely not our own and whose initial stages we would likely lose.
Something like that has happened before. A hundred years ago Theodore Roosevelt had warned Americans that, if we wanted peace in the Pacific, we should either withdraw from the Philippines or build a navy that Japan must respect. We did neither. Instead, US policy consisted of sonorous moral commitments to peace and good order, coupled with an increasingly hollow military: the unbridled tongue and the unready hand. The American people paid the price in blood.
Balancing ends and means has ever been the essence of practical wisdom in international affairs. Arguably the only sensible thing that President Obama has said regarding international affairs whether he meant it is beside the point is that America will not again engage in occupations. That was another of the excuses he gave for reducing the US Army. But if the US military will not be good for that bad purpose, for what will it be good? Certainly, Obamas emphasis on special forces and cyber security will leave the US military incapable of dealing with serious adversaries, anywhere.
No matter. On Friday, February 28 Barack Obama told the world that the United States government is deeply concerned by reports of military movements taken by the Russian Federation inside Ukraine. He warned Russia not to interfere in Ukraine and threatened that if it does, there will be costs. Given the imbalance between this Administrations tongue and its hand, Americans and Ukrainians have more to fear than does Vladimir Putin.

More like the one that the communists and soros have been training to be inserted here.
Then there was Jimmuh Cawtuh whose life has been one long rabid rabbit attack!
My people love me.
As we grow weaker..
I have long believed that Deng's reforms and "[scientific] socialism with Chinese characteristics" is modeled after Lenin's New Economic Policy (NEP). The Chinese Communist Party did it right though.. they and their families became billionaires. The Bolshevik dopes stuck with scientific socialism (Marxism) and ended NEP after a few years.
NEP was immediately after the Revolution. The Bolsheviks desperately needed to get a working economy and they permitted "Nepmen" the freedom to engage in free enterprise.
They also invited the likes of Henry Ford to build factories, I believe. (Lenin called 'em useful idiots). Soon the economy was going well and the Bolsheviks were safely in charge. Time to finish the Plan.. I believe that was to seize the useful idiots' assets and dispose of the Nepmen.
I can see where Red China is getting close to that part of Deng's version of NEP. Who's going to stop them from seizing assets under the kind of authority that has been exercised right here in the U.S.? Even
if when the Reds use lies.. how is that different from Obama BTW?
The commies will still have the factories. What difference will it make to those who love that cheap stuff from Red China? The Communists can put the useful idiots on a slow boat back to America -- in one of the hundreds of thousands of cargo containers.
But of course the gaggle of journos at the WaPo will never, ever, ever connect their chosen one next in line for the Presidency, Hillary Clinton, to Obama's fantasy-filled foreign policy.

Privacy Self Regulation: A Decade of Disappointment
Chris Jay Hoofnagle
University of California, Berkeley - School of Information; University of California, Berkeley - School of Law
January 19, 2005
in Consumer Protection in the Age of the 'Information Economy' (Jane K. Winn, ed.)(Ashgate 2006)
The Federal Trade Commission's Do-Not-Call Registry, a government-created protection for privacy, is a stellar success. With over 80 million numbers enrolled, Americans now have a easy to use and effective shield against telemarketing. The government's creation quickly superceded and made irrelevant self-regulatory solutions, which were difficult to use, did not apply to all telemarketers, and were unenforceable.
This article argues that, like self-regulatory solutions to the 20th century problem of telemarketing, market approaches to protecting consumers from 21st century problems have failed. The FTC embraced self-regulation to protect privacy on the Internet in 1995. That decision stalled Congress and anesthetized the public, as privacy practices worsened for a decade. Self-regulation has allowed the development of new tracking technologies, and the continued employment of old ones. Self-regulation allows companies to obfuscate their practices, leaving consumers in the dark. Emerging technologies represent serious threats to privacy and are not addressed by self-regulation or law. Self regulation has failed to produce usable anonymous payment mechanisms. We now know (as a result of California consumer protection regulation) that self-regulation failed to address security.
And finally, the worst identification and tracking policies from the online world are finding their way into the offline world. In other words, online self-regulatory approaches have encouraged a more invasive web environment, and have dragged down the practices of ordinary, offline retailers. This paper argues that the FTC and Congress should reevaluate their commitment to market approaches, and empower consumers with privacy law that incorporates Fair Information Practices.

That's My Boy's Andy Samberg On Working With Sandler And Why He Doesn't Want To Direct
In the last few years the best part of Saturday Night Live has been the digital shorts made by Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, also known as The Lonely Island. Since the videos started coming out all three members of the group have experienced success, but in different areas. While Samberg has stuck to acting and writing, both Schaffer and Taccone have tested their skills behind the camera as directors...

Adam Sandler Impregnates His Middle School Teacher In New That's My Boy Trailer
When it was announced that Adam Sandler would be playing Andy Samberg's father in That's My Boy (known as I Hate You, Dad at the time), a lot of people were confused. The fact is that while Sandler seems like he's been around forever and Samberg is still a relative newcomer, there's only a 15 year difference between the two actors' ages.

In theory I like the idea of Sandler and Samberg coming together as father and son, two generations of SNL butting heads. But Samberg is such a non-presence in this trailer, playing the general stuck-up guy who Sandler has to pull out of his rut-- it's an unfunny role Sandler himself played in Jack and Jill

But still i will go with mounts that you ride in MMOs.
For me like the more natural type of mounts,meaning animals rather than machanical type mounts.
So ill go with this first.
And then..
was wondering when the shadowhound would make an appearance..i was riding it tonight..think it was 50 quests or something to get that when Vanguard was released..awsome..it looks fantastic.

That's how I feel too. I had so many mounts and vehicles over the course of the game, including some multipassenger vehicles. There were pretty awesome.
BTW City of heroes had teleporting as a travel power long before Champions online, actually most of the stuff CO has CoH did first. But considering the team that developed CO did CoH first that isn't suprising.
I'm surprised that the Chopper from WoW didn't get in.
But for me there was no mount that I was as attached to in any game than my wolf in Warhammer Online when playing a gobbo. IT WAS JUST TOO AWESOME!

Here's what's on the menu next week, boys and girls:
I think that the X-51 Nether-Rocket is a much cooler looking rocket mount than the one on that list.
Nothing beats the nightmare from UO though. There is nothing like being attacked in PvP and watching your mount completely destroy the attacker. Those were the days...
I remember being a Galaxy Gunship pilot. When TR needed the outside clear, They would call out and we would roll deep with four fully loaded and manned GGs. We MADE the battles go inside. Had one night where we kept all four running in formation from hot spot to hot spot across multiple maps. We were in the air melting down all the BFRs, AMSs, Base gun turrets, Tower Turrets. Doing flyby re-loads for over two hours. TR was walking through everyone that night. When we were finally brought down, my ship and crew had been worth 52k xp. It was sick.
My tailgunner had so many kills that he got banned as a hacker.
Gunship Rain. I can hardly wait to get her back in the air.

But still i will go with mounts that you ride in MMOs.
For me like the more natural type of mounts,meaning animals rather than machanical type mounts.
So ill go with this first.
And then..
was wondering when the shadowhound would make an appearance..i was riding it tonight..think it was 50 quests or something to get that when Vanguard was released..awsome..it looks fantastic.
Yeah,the shadowhound quests starts at level 22 right up to level 32,that's ten levels before you can actually ride it.
Their is also a level 45 version of the shadowhound that is ghostly and drops in The Plane Of Shadow version of Hillsbury Manor,excessable by walk ing through the mirror in the normal version of the dungeon.
What about a big ass sand wurm, that swallows you whole and lets you control it? Can't get much more awesome than that.. :P
Eat me!
It slightly annoys me that STO isnt getting any kind of mention here. I mean i get where people can not quite consider them 'mounts' but i'm sorry:
You get the chance to pilot iconic ships like the goddamned Defiant, Voyager, oh and lets not forget the Galaxy class, All good things, and Soverign class versions of the USS enterprise. Just WILD.
That being said. TOR has some secret mounts in its raids that might end up being more than just reskinnings.

EQ2 has some great mounts too. What about Vanguard boats? SWTOR has some nice endgame speeders. Spectral tiger from WoW. The flying mechanical head from WoW. Theres so many out there.
The squirrel mounts in eq2 deserve mention for the ridiculousness of them, coupled with the fun mechanics of leapers and gliders
Perfect Worlds flight implementation makes Aion's look rinky dink and it was available long before Aion's was. Maybe you should expand your horizons a bit.
Lotro has some really fine horses that I find are one of the best implementations for horses.
I thought the Wow 2 person rocket mount was tacky, the 2 person elephant was much better
The best of the best was the different beasts you could ride in SWG. I had a great time training them for people to ride.
Yes, it's not a "quirky" mount, nor did it introduce any groundbreaking features;
But how could we have a mount thread without mention of it
I still think Ashes of Al'ar is one of the most beautiful, elegant mounts I've seen in an MMO.
Plus it's bright orange-red colours really do contrast well with the rest of the (WoW) universe. It really does scream "look at me!" even from very far away.
And to cap it off, there is a touching story about the very first owner of this mount.
This topic is annoying. Most players here only know about those buyable speedbuffs from themepark games. While in some games mounts are a lot more then that.
In SWG a bioengineer could clone animals and some of them could be turned into a mount. This was very immersive imo because you had to make your own bioengineering lab for this. Because this is a postNGE thing, not many players know about it. But also the preNGE taming was something different which made mounts more then just speedbuff.
The same goes for the vehicles in SWG. These were crafted by droid engineers. Or the starships that were crafted. In postNGE gunboats were added. Which were new starships (with interiors you could decorate), with storage, and with turrets that could be manned by your group. A complete group of 8 ppl could take part in spacecombat in one of those.
In this topic its clearly SWG > any MMO. The annoying part is that the official forums are down so I cant link to screenshots. So now even the simplest speedbuff mounts are listed here

LIVETARGET Trout Fry & Parr Jerkbaits
Young-of-the-year Trout are distinguished by two different stages in their early lifecycle: the Fry and the Parr. The Live Target Trout Fry and Parr Jerkbaits have matched these two popular forages to a tee. The baby of the family - the Fry, is offered in a slow sinking model, while its older adolescent brother - the Parr, is available in a floateing version, equipped with a built in weight transfer system. Both have intricate paint patterns that easily fool river and open water gamefish. The Koppers Live Target Trout Fry and Parr Jerkbaits are the ultimate forage replicas. Match the hatch with Live Target.

Comments: doesn't look good as jerkbait but I like a new kopper jerkbait like lucky craft and BX minnow design with koppers realism on them and call them new species of fish minnow or even better a koppers crawfish jerkbait? that be very new a koppers crawfish jerkbait.
From: Alex
Comments: everything is great about this lure but i think that it is to pricy. all of koppers lures are expensive but if you have the money buy it. i bought the 4" and i like it. buy one if you can and you wont regret it
From: Matt: Chicago, IL
Comments: i agree with alex. i got the 3.5" parr and it looks pretty good in the water when you're cranking it in. but when you pause and twitch your rod, it simply fails big time as a jerkbait. at slow to fast retrieve, it has a nice side to side wobble and i'm sure it will catch fish. however, i just can't classify this as a jerk bait. when working it as a jerk bait, sometimes it'll move to one side or the other but it does so in a very slow and non-erratic action. it has an interesting shaped bill and that may be why it doesn't have much action when jerked.
From: Elijah: Seattle, WA
Comments: I got the 3.5" and im not impressed at all. The look is spot on but the action is just not there. It tends to roll over alot you have to give it small little jerks to even attempt to make it work.
From: Alex: CA

A groundbreaking debut from The Seeds – one of those albums that seemed to come out of nowhere back in the 60s, then went onto have an undeniable influence on music for decades to come! The music is gritty and garagey right from the start – but also has a sinister focus that really sets the group apart from some of their contemporaries – a knowing way of putting the whole thing over that makes the whole thing way more than just a happy accident! Vocals are by leader Sky Saxon, and the set features some classic ripping guitars from Jan Savage – and also has great use of piano and melodica – in a mode that's a bit like some of the more rock-oriented work by Love, but a bit looser and more garagey. Titles include "No Escape", "Try To Understand", "Girl I Want You", "Lose Your Mind", "Evil Hoodoo", and the searing classic "Pushin Too Hard". © 1996-2017, Dusty Groove, Inc.
We realize that there are many different interpretations of the standard grades used for pre-owned vinyl record albums & CD, so we thought we'd offer you the ones that we are working with, so you have an idea what we mean when we give the grade for a non-new item on our pages.
Below are stated conditions for a used vinyl records at Dusty Groove. Grading for the cover should be assumed to be near (within a "+" or "-") the grading for the vinyl. If there is significant divergence from the condition of the vinyl, or specific flaws, these will be noted in the comments section of the item. However, please be aware that since the emphasis of this site is towards the music listener, our main concern is with the vinyl of any used item we sell. Additionally, please note that all of our records are graded visually; considering the volume of used vinyl we handle, it is impossible for us to listen to each record. If we spot any significant flaws, we make every attempt to listen through them and note how they play.
The following grading conditions apply to the vinyl component of an album or single:
This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".
Dusty Groove does not use the grades of Near Mint (or Mint, for that matter) because in our experience, we find that no records ever qualify for such a high grade. Even sealed records tend to have one or two slight faults, enough to usually qualify them for a grade of NM- or lower. We've often found that records which are clearly unplayed will have a slight amount of surface noise, especially in quieter recordings.
This is a grade we rarely use, as we try not to sell records in very bad condition, though in some rare cases we will list a record in such bad shape that it does not conform to the standards above. A "Fair" record will have enough marks or significant flaws that it does not even qualify as "Good", but is a copy you might consider for playing, if you're willing to put up with noise and/or flaws. An example might be a recording with surface noise so heavy that it is equal to the volume of the music. For records listed as "Fair", we will describe the extent of the condition in the comments.
Like "Fair", we rarely list records in this condition, as they represent the extreme low end of spectrum. These records typically have multiple serious problems, and we offer them as "relics" or "objects" only — for those who want to at least have a copy of a record, even if it is not really worthy of play, perhaps for the cover alone. For these records, we will describe the extent of the condition in the comments.
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
We have only one grade for non-new CDs at Dusty Groove — "Used CD". This grade is somewhat all-encompassing, but we choose it because we try to offer Used CDs in the best shape possible. All of our Used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. If you purchase a Used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly — and if it does not, then you may return it for a full refund.
With our Used CDs, you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks — clean, and not dirty at all. You can also expect the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves — putting fresh cases on Used CDs we handle) — and you can expect the booklet to be in good shape, unless noted otherwise. We will list any specific details/defects underneath the item — so look for notes on cutout marks in the case, stamps on the barcode, or details like that.

U.S. Attorney Jim Letten resigns amid investigations into two of his deputies.
NEW ORLEANS – Jim Letten, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, announced his resignation Thursday in the wake of scandals involving some of his top deputies.
Letten has been the face of sweeping anticorruption and crime-fighting efforts for more than two decades, ranging from his successful prosecution of former Louisiana governor Ed Edwards to police shootings in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
At a morning press conference, Letten said his decision to resign, effective Dec. 11, came after discussions with colleagues, Justice Department officials and his family. He didn't specifically address the Justice Department inquiries into his deputies.
"The decision ultimately was mine," he said.
The Justice Dept. named Dana Boente as Letten's interim replacement. Boente currently serves as First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Boente began his career with Justice in 1984.
Last month, a local landfill owner filed a defamation lawsuit against Letten's office, accusing one of the U.S. Attorney's Office deputies of posting comments about his company on a local news Web forum under a pseudonym. The landfill company was under investigation by Letten's office on fraud charges.
Another deputy resigned earlier this year under similar charges of posting online comments under a fake name.
Letten was appointed U.S. attorney in 2001 by President George W. Bush. Following Katrina, he oversaw investigations of storm-related contract fraud and police shootings of civilians in the wake of the storm. He has served for 27 years as a federal prosecutor, according to his office's website.
Letten's resignation dismantles a lot of the trust the city had in combating corruption and creates a void for overseeing other law enforcement agencies, such as the New Orleans Police Department, said Peter Scharf, a Tulane University criminologist.
"We had this idea that there was one honest broker in the city," Scharf said. "It destroys that comforting illusion."
In a statement, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder praised Letten.
"As the longest-serving U.S. Attorney in the country today (Letten) has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the people of his district and the nation by working tirelessly to make their communities safer through reducing violent crime, fighting public corruption and protecting their civil rights,'' Holder said.
"More recently, he and his office were instrumental in the department's efforts in ensuring that those who exploited the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina were held accountable. He has been a valued partner, dedicated public servant and a good friend, and I am grateful for his service to the department over these many years."

Building Notice Application
In certain circumstances, you can simply submit an application for Building Regulations under the Building Notice procedure. The application form, together with a site plan, needs to be deposited at least 48 hours before works commence on site. No detailed plans are required and compliance with the regulations will be ascertained as work proceeds on site. However, the Council can request further details to clarify certain parts of the work if it is felt necessary to establish compliance with the regulations. This procedure is mainly for minor works, such as domestic extensions, garages, installation of bathrooms etc. The main disadvantage is that you will not have notice of passing of plans and the knowledge that your proposals comply with Building Regulations before work starts on site.
Once a valid application has been deposited we will send the applicant/agent an acknowledgement letter and a site inspection record card. The record card will detail the stages of the work that the Building Control Surveyor will need to inspect. You can start work 48 hours after depositing a valid application. It is then the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that the surveyor is notified at these stages.
A Building Notice is valid for 3 years from date of deposit. If works have not commenced within this time you will need to resubmit.
Once the surveyor has carried out a final inspection and is satisfied that the works comply to the Building Regulations, a Completion Certificate will be sent to the applicant.

Casa – the highest rated AA 4* hotel in Chesterfield and a leading hotel in Derbyshire, according to world renowned travel website TripAdvisor – is now licensed to host weddings and civil ceremonies.
The news will alert couples looking to get married in and around Chesterfield that they can now potentially hold their wedding or civil ceremony at the £20 million Casa hotel and take advantage of its four licensed and flexible event suites, which can cater for events of all sizes.
The largest of the suites is the Barcelona Suite, which can accommodate up to 250 guests and allows wedding and civil ceremony organisers to design lighting according to the ceremony's colour scheme. Casa also offers other, more intimate spaces, as well as open terraces for outdoor ceremonies and receptions.
Casa also shares a close relationship with nearby Walton Lodge Farm, which means that food prepared for and served at wedding events is fresh, organically reared, locally sourced and travels very few food miles.
Casa owner Steve Perez said: "We're delighted that we will now be able to open our doors to couples looking for a stylish and romantic Derbyshire venue to hold their wedding or civil ceremony in.
"Casa is a unique property with bags of personality that also offers incredible flexibility in terms of its event suites and outdoor space.
"We also have a large and experienced team of event organisers keen to help couples ensure that the biggest day of their lives goes as smoothly as possible, meaning that they can just relax and enjoy themselves."
Couples looking for a romantic place to stay on the night of their wedding can enjoy one of Casa' six stylish suites. These ultra-luxurious suites include Jacuzzi baths, a lounge and dressing area, separate shower cubicle, double basins, super king beds and balconies. Two suites boast hot tubs on the balcony, which are a perfect indulgence for any guest seeking the ultimate retreat and relaxation.
Wedding guests can also enjoy a wide range of facilities: a 100-cover restaurant, Cocina, serving traditional Spanish tapas, the gym and open terraces. And, with the picturesque Peak District National Park on the doorstep, guests can easily access a host of attractions, including Chatsworth House, Bolsover Castle and the neighbouring towns of Matlock Bath, Buxton and Bakewell.
