My mother taught me how to live with dignity in poverty. The key to her success was that she knew how to do paperwork. State, city, housing authority and federal forms did not daunt her. Like her, I know how to do paperwork and so I am not afraid of handling life should I ever be poor.
Thanks to Lyndon Johnson and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, she was able to live independently on $968 a month [her $240 pension plus $728 social security]. She passed away a few years ago, but there are millions of elderly in America barely hanging on by their toenails. Most of them are decent people who did the best they knew how. They deserve our support. I, for one, am proud to pay taxes to support them. Most of them paid into social security all of their lives and now John Boehner and his ilk want to undercut them.
Let's be clear about a few things:
· China owns roughly 9% of America's debt. Is that big? Mainstream media and politicians tell you it is. The Social Security Administration owns over thirty percent! That's right, the SSA takes our social security contributions ["taxes"], buys Treasury bonds and earns interest on them—so that it will have the cash to pay you your due when it comes due.
· The SSA is solvent—and there is no reason to expect that it will become insolvent in your life time, regardless of your age, unless some Republican Congress succeeds in strangling it or, as Grover Norquist says, "drown it in the bathtub."
· Your social security contributions ["taxes"], if you pay them, have been cut in half for the past four years. Did you notice?
· Any long term inadequacy of the social security fund can easily be repaired by raising the cap on the income amount subject to the tax. Currently, no one pays the tax [contribution] on income over $100,000. When, in the far future, it becomes necessary increasing funding in order to balance the books, simply raise that cap. It's math.
So. Please ask your Congress Member to quit fucking with social security. Do it for all the elderly who depend on it for dignity and survival. I know you may doubt me, but one day you or someone you know will be one of them.

We have to make sure that the promises we make in Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are promises we can keep, and there are various ways of doing that," Mr. Romney said. "One is we can raise taxes on people."
"Corporations!" the protesters shouted, suggesting that Mr. Romney, as president, should raise taxes on large businesses. "Corporations!"
"Corporations are people, my friend," Mr. Romney responded, as the hecklers shouted back, "No they're not!"
"Of course they are," Mr. Romney said, chuckling slightly. "Everything corporations earn ultimately goes to people. Where do you think it goes?" When someone in the front row angrily suggested that "it goes in their pockets," Mr. Romney, becoming increasingly animated, asked: "Whose pockets? People's pockets!
Mitt Romney, cheerfully laying out the "Corporations are people, too!" argument.
Yeah… um, he's right that earnings go to people. I just… I shudder, and I have trouble taking this seriously. Why do I get the feeling that Mitt Romney is an epic troll?
I report, you decide:
I see a wee bit o' the troll face in this one…

Former Sen. Alan Simpson told Lawrence O'Donnell it's time to "peel all the layers of the onion" and figure out just why people seem to listen intently to Grover Norquist.
In an interview on The Last Word tonight, Simpson noted that Norquist had challenged Republican Sen. Tom Coburn on a $6 billion cut on ethanol subsidies he had called "tax increases," which incensed Simpson greatly. "Grover and his happy band of warriors are trying to call that a tax increase– that's a damn lie and he knows it," he told O'Donnell. "And if he can get away with that, elect him President."
Simpson continued to question Norquist's power throughout the segment, arguing that "he can't kill you, he can't burn your house, he can defeat you in reelection," and if a public servant thought the latter was enough to obey him, they didn't deserve the spot.
He also told O'Donnell several times that "if Grover Norquist is more powerful than the President of the United States and the Congress, he should run for President" … On that note, Simpson called for an investigation. "Grover Norquist should be examined into– where does he get his money?" In times where people amass so much power, he argues, it becomes necessary to "peel all the layers of the onion." "Anytime anyone gets this powerful," he argued, "you want to dig in… who is he slave to?"
He clarified that he did not mean "salacious stuff and his personal life," but how Americans for Tax Reform operated and why so many people in Congress feared him, because based only on his status as leader of an anti-tax group, "you must be chicken if you fall for that crap."
I have a soft spot for former Sen. Alan Simpson. He's part of the Reagan era, yes, and that's where the accelerated sell-out of my generation began. However, he also has a streak of common-sense conservatism sorely lacking in the Republican Party. He's pro-gay rights (including marriage) and pro-choice, which puts him to the left of nearly every Republican out there.
I agree with Simpson. Let's find out where Grover's getting his bucks.
A little perspective on what's holding up budget negotiations in Congress. The GOP is refusing to buckle on further tax cuts for Charlie Sheen (well, his income bracket) and demanding education cuts, which result in more pay cuts for teachers.
This is not winning, America. This is losing.
This past month, there was much outrage over the fact that General Electric, despite making $14.2 billion in profits, paid zero U.S. taxes in 2010. General Electric actually received tax credits of $3.2 billion from American taxpayers.
At the same time that General Electric was not paying taxes, many undocumented immigrants, who are typically accused of taking advantage of the system while not contributing to it by many on the right, paid $11.2 billion in taxes. A new study by the Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy shows that undocumented immigrants paid $8.4 billion in sales taxes, $1.6 billion in property taxes, and $1.2 billion in personal income taxes last year. The study also estimates that nearly half of all undocumented immigrants pay income taxes.
Huh… so who's gaming the system again?

A liberal uprising over House procedures on Thursday was delaying a final vote on a far-reaching tax compromise brokered by the White House and Republican leaders.
Dozens of Democrats were demanding an opportunity to cast a vote to change an estate tax provision they view as too generous for the wealthy without also approving the rest of the package as passed by the Senate. That package contains a two-year extension of George W. Bush administration tax policies that benefit families at all income levels, including the very wealthiest Americans.
Democrats have complained for years about those provisions and want an opportunity to vote against them.
Senior Democrats said the delay was unlikely to derail the package, which is intended to prevent tax rates from rising in January for virtually every household.
House leaders initially proposed adding a third vote that would have permitted liberals to vote for the amended version but then vote against sending it back to the Senate for further action.
But after huddling with Democratic leaders on the House floor, Rep. Peter A. DeFazio (D-Ore.) said liberals were pushing for a new and broader amendment that would include changes to the estate tax, substitute the president's signature Making Work Pay tax credit for a two-percentage point reduction in the Social Security payroll tax and add a $250 bonus payment for Social Security recipients who are being denied a cost of living increase for the second year in a row.
And now they get a backbone? Well, better late than never…
Do not let Congress compromise with Obama. "The Compromise" is against everything the House Republican Leadership agreed to in the "Pledge to America." This type of behind closed door politics is not what "We the People" voted for in November. Read more…
Sign Tea Party Patriots' petition against "The Tax Deal" with Obama.
Don't allow Congress to Compromise with Obama.
So this is a weird oppositeland… It's now the "Obama Tax Compromise"
I think progressives should hijack this bitch and demand the removal of the Estate Tax compromise and capital gains compromise. Or something…
We're totally growing from the tax cuts. Yep.
This morning, in an interview with Tea Party Caucus leader Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), ABC's Good Morning America host George Stephanopoulos picked up on the discrepancy between caring about the deficit when adding to it helps the poor, but not when it helps the rich. Asked if she would support a compromise which extended both the tax cuts and the unemployment benefits, Bachmann said no, characterizing letting the tax cuts expire as a "massive tax increase," while dismissing extending unemployment benefits as "massive spending":
BACHMANN: As far as a compromise goes, I want to get the current tax policy as far into the future as we can, if we can only get it extended for two years, that's great. But I don't think the American people should have to pay for that to have some new massive spending tied to it. If that's the case, I don't think you're going to see the Republicans go along with it.
STEPHANOPOULOS: But why is it OK for the wealthiest Americans earning over $250,000 a year — remember the President has called for extending all tax cuts for those under $250,000 — for them to get tax cuts extended but for people out of a job and needing unemployment benefits not to have their benefits extended?
BACHMANN: Well remember again what this is. It's a massive tax increase and its on the people who are job creators. And people want to think that these are millionaires sitting in leather chairs lighting their cigars with $100 bills, that's not what we're talking about. These are people who are carpet layers who may be employed two or three other guys, or a plumber, maybe himself and his brother, and it's $250,000 in gross sales for their business. Their the ones looking at massive tax increases. …That's going to hurt more people than anything if we can't have job creation. And this is a job killer if we raise taxes on the job creators.
Bachmann's argument for tax extension is, in one word, "bogus." As the Wonk Room's Pat Garofalo points out, conservatives' claim that the tax increase will hurt small businesses is "only accurate if you take an incredibly expansive view of what constitutes a small business." In reality, "exceedingly few small businesses" would actually be affected by letting the tax cuts expire. Meanwhile, the cuts represent "the least effective tax or spending step for job creation," according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Every dollar spent extending the tax cuts results in just 10 cents to 40 cents of economic activity, the CBO found.
Unemployment extension for those seeking jobs, however, represents the biggest bang for the buck of any government stimulus policy. According to the CBO, "the economy would see output rise by between $0.70 to $1.90." That is part of the reason why an overwhelming majority of Americans support extending unemployment benefits for more than 2 million Americans in need, regardless of its effect on the deficit.
What a miserable woman. Seriously. We're going to spend massive amounts on the rich but fuck the unemployed. I really don't believe that she sees the contradiction.

TORONTO - Ja Rule appeared in a Toronto court and was released on $7,500 bail on an assault charge. The 28-year-old rapper, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, didn't enter a plea Monday on the charge of assault causing bodily harm. He's scheduled to return to Provincial Court Aug. 30 for a trial date to be set.
There is a court-ordered publication ban on the evidence, although police said earlier the charges stem from an incident at a Toronto nightclub on June 5.
Atkins, of Saddle River, N.J., signed autographs for fans outside court before driving away in a tinted car with his lawyer and two bodyguards.
His lawyer, Steven Skurka, said the publication ban was standard procedure to prevent having the trial heard "before a man ever walks into a courtroom."
"(It's) to protect an accused person from having information released. There's already been false information released about these allegations," Skurka said.
According to his bail conditions, Atkins is not to consume alcohol while in Canada, contact the alleged victim and witnesses or be in the downtown entertainment district unless it's for work.
He's been in Toronto often this year while shooting "Assault on Precinct 13." His films also include "Half Past Dead" and "The Fast and the Furious."

Wow. This week in reality TV land is ... something. We've got husbands being arrested, a pajama party that ended in fist fights, $5,000 to $8,000 being spent at strip clubs ... and that's just The Real Housewives of Atlanta. We've also got gossip from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Vanderpump Rules, Mob Wives, and Couples Therapy. You might want to pour yourself a cocktail.
If you've been living under a rock, news broke just before the weekend that Apollo Nida, husband of Phaedra Parks, surrendered to authorities on counts of bank fraud and identity theft. Ouch. Is there any Housewives cast that is free of bankruptcies or indictments?? In this week's exclusive video below, I discuss the bad timing of his antics on this week's RHOA and how that could hurt him.
Did that pajama party give you whiplash? I lay it out, point by point. Once again, Kenya Moore remembers things more clearly than NeNe Leakes or anyone else, but it still doesn't make her likeable. How is security handled while filming? I explain what we saw and what we likely did not see.
We also had a lot of punching going on in Beverly Hills this week, though it was on purpose. I break down what I saw between the lines when Brandi Glanville's father spoke to Yolanda Foster, as well as some surprising news about how well the RHOBH season is stacking up to Vanderpump Rules.
I go beyond Housewives this week to dish about Mob Wives, Couples Therapy, and what bothered me most about Taylor Armstrong's meltdown. Also, how does Downton Abbey remind me of Keeping Up With the Kardashians?
Also this week I take viewer questions (keep them coming!). Are there any reality stars who don't drink? What happens behind-the-scenes when cast members skip out on each other's events? And what about cast members who cross over between series and spin-offs?
Who do you think is to blame for the fight at NeNe's pajama party?

Personally i'm dying to see the Real Housewives of the Federal Pen! Juciy Joe, Apollo and probably a few others will be there soon!
Alex, I have a question for you. I was reading online this morning about Vicki's (RHOC) divorce settlement from her husband Don. The financial disclosure revealed how much money they have in the bank and other assets. I live in NYC so maybe i'm jaded but frankly they seemed to have "regular people" money and not "super rich" type money. Vicki acts like she's wealthy, but honestly based on her settlement she's middle class/upper middle class at best. What, if any, are the financial requirements for being a Real Housewive?
Based on the lies, theviery and financial disclosures revealed so far, seems to me that you just have to have a luxury "looking" life. Do the producers of the show review your financials before signing you up or are they just taking your word for what you have.
Finally, I LOVE your Couple Therapy recap. This is my first season watching that show and it's a real kick!
Hey all, I'm on my way to the CNN studio to join HLN News Now live this afternoon to talk about all the current reality TV court cases including the Giudices and Apollo Nida. Thanks for all the kind words and please tune into HLN at 1:45pm EST live today!
Love your re-caps
Ne is a hot mess they all were in there PJS ,just ridiculous, I fouind it ironic that Apollo turned himself in this week I read the indictment not good , he is not a clever criminal . They are all pretty embarrassing I don't know people who act this way ?? at this age All of these HW shows I would be mortified and pleas ecan we stop with the Strippers and Stripper poles, aren't there Charities they do work for can 't we see something good , instead of these high schjool Antics ...ugh
On Traylor PArk Armstrong she is a disgrace has been since she started , she is a fame w**re and has sickened me since she opened her mouth and lied which she did since the first time she was on TV and continues to use that BS about her dead husband , she is a disgusting and always has been.She has gotten better about her lying she doesn't out herself like she used too, but here is hoping she falls off the face of the TV and the news , yuck ...sorry had to vent she makes my skin crawl
Love your recaps

Jessica from Powder Springs, GA– Verified Buyer
Great look, easy to assemble. Only small problem is it arrived with a small scrape on one of the legs. But by its nature it sits in the corner and you don't see it. It is definitely a really dark grey, opposed to solid black as others have said. Would definitely recommended.

As far as dramatically cinematic topics go, there's little to match the brutal reality of a city left devastated by a natural disaster. With director Spike Lee's profound four-hour documentary, When The Levees Broke: A Requiem In Four Acts, he not only taps into that drama but incisively explores a wealth of other cinematic staples, among them pain, sorrow, loss, deceit, neglect, abuse and the corruption of power.
Originally broadcast as a two-part series on the HBO network in the States, Levees sets out to tell, in sequence, the events that lead up to the Hurricane Katrina-inflicted flooding of New Orleans on 29 August 2005, and what happened during and after the levees had been breached and 80 percent of the city found itself under water.
Many of the images here we've seen before: the evacuees trapped in the crumbling Superdome; distraught families on the roofs of their homes with makeshift signs begging for rescue; boats motoring through flooded streets past dead bodies in search of survivors; Bush's crass "Brownie, you're doing one hell of a job" comment to FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) boss Mike Brown while the stranded survivors were left without food or water; Kanye West's off-teleprompt "George Bush doesn't care about black people" comment during a national telethon; Dick Cheney's "go fuck yourself" heckler.
What Lee does so well, though, is to mould these moments into a cohesive narrative, not just presenting the sound bites, but the stories behind the sound bites, all the while placing them in the greater context of the Crescent City's social and political history. It's not an easy story to tell, and Lee skillfully avoids – no pun intended – black and whiting it. The country's worst natural disaster in its history didn't happen just because one man screwed up, and a multitude of opinions have been collected and collated.
One thing that Lee does make clear, however, is that many, many people got it wrong: from the pre-storm predictions and FEMA's woeful response, through to the government's terrifyingly poor attempts to later set things right. Not a single elected body escapes Lee's scrutiny, and some of the key players are interviewed, like Governor Kathleen Blanco and Mayor Ray Nagin (though there's zip from Brownie himself), as well as famous faces like Rev Al Sharpton, Harry Belafonte, Wynton Marsalis, Terence Blanchard, Sean Penn and Kanye West.
But the real 'stars' of the piece are the people that lived through it, the residents whose lives were torn apart as quickly and brutally as their homes. Three months after Katrina struck, Lee and a small crew made the first of eight trips to New Orleans to conduct interviews and shoot footage, and here lies the heart of the movie. While the debate over bureaucracy versus humanity rages on, nothing cuts to the core sharper than regular people trying to tell their stories, but getting stopped in their tracks as they choke back their tears.
Hurricane Katrina didn't get itself a neat little 8/29 promo tag for the Government to wheel out when trying to drum up votes, mainly because the US Government – state, federal and local – would rather you forget. When The Levees Broke will make sure you don't.

Home Fries-- Stuck to the pan!!
I'm not a fan of nonstick cookware, don't use it. Tried to make some pan fried potatoes, cut up some Yukon Golds into 1 1/2 inch chunks, heated up some olive oil and spices in a stainless pan and threw them in. But after a few minutes, they started to stick to the pan. The outcome was a burnt mess. Tried little amounts of water, no help. The potatoes need a good while to cook what's the secret of great homefries without burning? Thanks!
I would say the secret is to use a different pan. No matter what kinds of potatoes I am making--home fries, french fries, hash browns, etc., I always use a cast iron pan. Just my $0.02.
re: fourunder
yes, water?
my b/f has a pan that everything sticks to, but other than that... heat the pan. heat the fat. don't be afraid of using enough fat to "fry" the food. when the oil is shimmering, add the potatoes. but not too high a heat. let the crust form before trying to move the potatoes.
You can start with chunks of cooked potatoes or thin slices of raw potatoes, but you can't start with big chunks of raw potatoes. I use duck fat and mildly boiled potatoes in 1/2 inch slices, low heat at first, then I up it at the end for a quick brown crisp, cast iron pan.
Those are some big chunks. I cut mine into 1" chunks, maybe even a little smaller. You'll have to use a lot of oil if you're not using cast iron or nonstick.
I NEVER use stainless for any sort of sauteing. NEVER. Only for sauces.
For pan-fried potatoes I would have gone with a cast-iron pan or - huge gasp - non-stick.
re: escondido123
I understand a willingness to not use a cheap nonstick for potatoes--you may have trouble browning them--but cast iron or a Le Creuset cast iron/enamel nonstick is great for potatoes. You still will have trouble cutting them that large, though. if you want chunks that size, you need to either pre-cook the potatoes (boil or bake then cool completely and cut) or make much smaller pieces.
I toss them with olive oil and salt and bake at 425. I almost always use cast iron but they've turned out in other pans. If they stick just let them rest for a few minutes before removing. I usually do wedges and turn them half way through so two sides get really brown and crunchy and the insides are soft and creamy.
Cast iron and some sort of fat. I prefer duck fat.
Starting with raw potatoes will take a while. No matter the size, I par-cook them. Boil the whole potatoes until just tender, let them cool (this can be overnight), cube and fry. Peeling them is optional, but some people prefer it.
I've had good luck with foods not sticking by heating my empty stainless steel frying pan over medium heat for 3 minutes, then adding oil and letting that heat up before adding food. It helps to let the food develop a nice crust on the bottom before attempting to move it. I also use parboiled potatoes for home fries.
After you cut your potatoes, soak them in cold water for about ten minutes, to let the gluey starch leach out. Rinse them off, dry them, and fry 'em up over medium heat. They shouldn't stick like that again.
Better yet, cut them, boil them, rinse them, dry them, and fry them on very high heat.
We cook potatoes & onions or what others would call home fries all the time; I don't always use cast iron and still have good luck doing it. I start by using a little oil (bacon grease, canola, olive, etc of your choice), not a lot but just enough to coat the skillet. Heat over medium low temperature to start; add the potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking. Increase the heat after 10 minutes to medium or med-high depending on your cooktop and continue to cook, stirring occasionally for another 8-10 minutes or until fork tender.
Use about half inch of room temp. oil and room temp potatoes. Don't rinse them bc you're just adding what you don't want........oil and water don't mix. Toss them with a bit of corn starch or tapioca flour. Turn up heat to med. LEAVE THEM ALONE! don't 'play with them. When one side is golden brown around the edges turn them over carefully. DON"T PLAY WITH THEM! When the other side is done remove and put on PT's. They ought to separate then.
I use a stainless steel pan all the time for home fries. I first make sure to heat the pan over medium heat before adding the oil. After a couple of minutes I add the potatoes. I think the other key is not to touch them for several minutes until they get a little skin to them.. But I think the main secret is the way the pan is used...
re: andieb
Was the oil hot? This is important.
Also, normally home frys are cooked first and then browned / carmelized in the cast iron pan. You can boil them or in a pinch cook in the microwave.
I would never add water - it's impossiable to brown them until the water burns off.
When I make my home fries I have a log of bacon ends (often called seasoning bacon) - I'ts at your local grocery (or just add a few lardon's of bacon). I lob off a half an inch or so, render the fat than add the taters and onions etc.

Remember when getting on the internet meant dialing up? How about when your phone was just a phone? Today's smart phones are mini-computers in the palm of your hand. Most wireless customers are looking for speed, and now wireless providers are rolling out the next generation of technology, 4G.
"We definitely have come a long way from the original first generation phones where you'd be able to get on your phone and make a call," says Verizon Wireless Supervisor Nic Bontrager who works in Michiana. Bontrager is almost giddy about where we are now. Verizon just flipped the switch on its 4G-LTE network in five Michiana Cities. "It is the new wave of the future," he says.
4G stands for Fourth Generation. LTE means Long Term Evolution. Put simply, we're talking speed. AT&T's 4G LTE is live in five markets now, but South Bend is not one of them. "AT&T plans to launch 4G LTE in 15 or more markets by the end of the year," an AT&T spokesperson tells FOX 28 News. The company has not announced any specific plans for Indiana.
Northern Indiana Director of Sales Jason Currie touts the company's HSPA+, an upgrade to the network that is currently available in Michiana. Currie says the popular iPhone 4S works on the HSPA+ network. Currie is excited about where wireless technology is now, and where it's going from here. "Eventually wireless will serve as the main ability to access the internet," he says.
Sprint is also currently expanding its 4G footprint. It is not available in Michiana yet, but a company spokesperson tells FOX 28, Sprint is currently expanding its 4G network to cover 250 million people. That expansion is expected to start by the middle of 2012.
We could throw more terms at you, or claims from companies about who has, or will have, the fastest 4G LTE network, but the bottom line is this: When we're talking 4G LTE, we're talking about faster download speeds and web surfing. You have to ask yourself, how do I use my mobile device? Sascha Segan, a tech-columnist for pcmag.com pretty much sums it up when he writes, "If you don't care about the Web speeds on your phone or modem, then you probably don't care about 4G."
If you want to download music, or get a movie on your smart phone, then wireless experts say you'll definitely see a blazing fast difference. For music, we're talking seconds instead of minutes. For movies, minutes instead of hours. "You're just going to be like, 'Oh! It's up and running it's that quick,'" says Bontrager.
Robert O'Donnell is a smart phone user who is looking for faster speeds. He's from LaPorte, and drove into South Bend to pick up a 4G compatible phone after using a friend's 4G device.
"It was like a whole new system. My phone would take a minute to two minutes to load up and his was basically loaded up before I had my address punched up," O'Donnell says.
For a guy like O'Donnell spending the money on a 4G device made sense. "It was just very impressive. I decided, I've got an upgrade available, I'm going to use it," he says. You know how technology works, as soon as we get used to this 4G thing, we'll start talking about 5G. "We're going to go places you just can't imagine," Bontrager says.
FOX 28 News conducted an unscientific test to see how much faster a smart phone would run on Verizon's 4G LTE network compared to the company's 3G network. We used a Droid Bionic, and the free app called Speedtest.net in three different locations; Downtown Elkhart, Eddy Street Commons across from Notre Dame in South Bend and in Downtown Mishawaka.
We saw the following results:

Too soft on Buffett?
Kass did something nobody else has ever done. He questioned the Oracle's mortality -- among other things.
Was Doug Kass too soft on Warren Buffett?
I know that one of my favorites, Jason Zweig from the Journal, says some wags offered that view.
Frankly, I think that's nonsense. In fact, this was a terrific exchange if you are thinking about buying Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B) or covering your short.
First, Kass did the unthinkable. He actually questioned Buffett's mortality. He actually, without saying it out loud, questioned the notion that Buffett would live forever. No one else has ever done that.
Think about it. First, Kass made it clear that a lot of the most recent big deals, including the Goldman Sachs (GS), GE (GE) and Bank of America (BAC) investments, all of which we wish he had access to, happened because of the imprimatur of Buffett himself. So what happens if Buffett is not at the helm? It is entirely possible that those kinds of seat-of-the pants deals can't happen without Buffett. So why would I want to go long if he isn't there? Or do we presume he lives to 100 and everything is hunkey-dorey.
Second, he asked about putting Buffett's son Howard as executive chairman, given that he has never run a company like this or made material investments. Buffett dismissed Kass totally because he said his son knows the culture. I don't know, I would prefer someone else with experience. That makes me less likely to buy the stock than, say, if Sam Palmisano were to be executive chairman or someone like Leon Cooperman, who knows the company cold (he went with Dougie to Omaha). Maybe someone who knows insurance like Jay Fishman or pipelines like Rich Kinder, or perhaps someone from his excellent board, or maybe a former CEO of Wells Fargo, a big holding.
As far as breaking up the company, the notion that the fifth-largest company in the world should be just this pastiche, if not a mosaic, of unrelated companies wouldn't carry water anywhere other than with Berkshire. Nobody would put these pieces together. No one. It would make no sense. It only makes sense because Buffett put them together. No other exec could do this. No one.
My conclusion? You wouldn't want to buy Berkshire if Buffett weren't at the helm. Not in this condition. Kass nailed it.
I would not be a seller here. I would still be a buyer. Buffett has the power to make this company a better investment as a whole than in parts.
But no one else on earth can pull it off. So my mind would change if Buffett isn't immortal.
Thank you, Doug Kass, for pointing all of this out. It was very brave and yet still very respectful. Not tough enough? If anything, they cut to the matter at hand: would you want buy Berkshire Hathaway without Buffett?
I think the answer is "no."

Not to argue the point, because some of Warren's idealogy has fallen to the wayside...
And his wisdom is not always spot on or correct...
But then again, it depends what parts or ideas, one might suscribe to.
If an individual had followed him for years even decades, I think you will find that much of his wit and wisdom would be useful, very useful in parts.
And he wasn't always adverse to his own rules, and Berk has adapted many times.
But I always liked Mark Twain and Will Rogers too...
Not anymore of an "outsider" for the most part than I, I probably just have a greater interest and the time to pursue those interests..
As far as BERK....Never been invested in ANY of their stock...A or B.
Never bought any books about Berkshire or Buffet...
But have read articles about both occassionally..
I find them interesting at times....And big money kind of fascinates me, the how, when and whys?
With roughly about 35+ years of that curiosty, you have to pick up some tidbits...
And that has also helped us in retirement....Now investing being a hobby, I enjoy.
And one of my pursuits or games, is to try and "best" Berkshire on a yearly basis..
Some years I have done fairly well,...Had him beat last year 2012 up until about the end, then he whooped me in the last few furhlongs...
Basically Steve.....Every year when Berkshire has their "Shareholders Meeting"...
Everybody with a typewriter and a journalist' job in finance; Comes out and writes about it..
This year there were about 40,000 BERKites, financial people, media etc..In attendance.
Omaha was invaded by "lost souls" wandering around with IDs, placards and press passes hanging around their necks...The "Badges of Importance" for some of the chosen...
Some of the bigger issues (because Berk's gain, was intact YOY) were Warren learning and getting a Twitter Account and "tweeting now"; Buffet extolling the virtures of having more women involved at different levels of finance and in Control of higher positions( 3 on Berk's board now or the third about to be installed?) And WB's(CMs) possible retirements and chosen successors??
Pretty much what was hot and what was not...?
If an individual actually likes some of WB/CM investment ideas, the ones that can be afforded??
It is somewhat easy to check out the holdings of BERK.A and BERK.B...
And buy accordingly..The choices "you might prefer"..?
Many of their Holdings are Long Term, but are bought and sold in cycles also.
Buffet being mostly known as a "Value Investor", has made many mistakes over the years...
The one thing I like about him most....Is "he owns up to those mistakes too."
Remember it took him the better share of 50+ years to get where they are at...
And he started out solely with that goal in mind..

Son Of Chuck Norris Shows Off Some Skills Working Out On The Total Gym.
Chuck is starting to lose it a little…you can see it in the eyes.
daaaaaaaaaaaaang how old is he about 70 and still popping out kids dang!!!
Cocaines a hell of a drug LOLOL
hes not his son no mustache no chuck norris
just kidding
All kidding aside ,Chuck's the man.He's 72 ,still in shape and still fertile.If everyone looked as good as he and Christie Brinkley-it should be mandatory to own that gym.
Chuck doesn't age, only the Universe does
Gotta love Chuck. True class. He's done so much for martial arts. I wish him the best and I hope son is a beast in MMA in 8-10 years.
I would have beat the s*** out of this kid when I was 11. Dude looks like he's 8, must be that retarded old man sperm.
Attributing that kid's amazing athletic abilities to that stupid machine is ridiculous. F*** you Chuck Norris, you lying douche.
wow, yeah chuck norris sounds like he's not all there
the ruffo bros would smash him. and so would those little Brazilian kids from that other video. or any other video
Actually, he'll be 73 in March. His son, Dakota, is 11 I believe, which means Chuck was 61 when he was born. The guy is obviously in tip top shape to still be spreading the seed. He had his first daughter in 1964 for God's sakes. It's too bad his son has his 1970s Return of the Dragon "do" going on.
Dude is 73, is in fantastic shape, and you losers rip him down. see what you look like then if you live that long. facepalm.
Another 5 more years than I will hand you an arse whooping chuck
@ wow – He'd still kick the @#!% out of you, and his son would too.
Sounds like he has COPD (lungs are shot) and a the brains going a bit , thats to bad.
Chuck Norris doesn't age, he just gets more and more lethal.
Chuck Norris died 20 years ago. Death is just too afraid to let him know.
Chuck Norris doesn't blow out birthday candles. He looks at them and they melt.
Chuck Norris does not age. Every birthday, it's just another year added to his existence.
Chuck Norris has never had a surprise birthday party. He can never be surprised.
Chuck Norris was born in a log cabin that he built with his bare hands.
Chuck Norris can have his cake and eat it too.
Did you hear chuck norris's tears cure cancer? Too bad chuck norris doesn't cry.
Can't believe people on here making fun of 72 year old Chuck Norris and his 11 year old son. Chuck could still kick all your asses. Thanks for the post Bruno
I hope his son one day rebels against his right wing Christian extremist douche father and goes way off the tracks, in to the world of atheism and ends up having glittering career in the gay p*** industry.
I started to dislike this m*********** lately. He's been talking s*** about Bruce Lee. He said they never "sparred" because he was a "professional fighter". NO BS! Look that up
This motherfucka was participating in point karate tournaments when Bruce was alive.
The only guy that can beat Chuck…Son of Chuck.
Norris is actually a really good intelligent person. It's you retarded,fat,loser American's who tarnish names,create hype, and hate on everyone you wish you were. Especially mma "fans." Don't be upset because you're dirt poor.
tim allen is good in shape,but the beard is weird
Dakota LMAO…..Where is Charger and Ram?…. Git Ir Done!!!
chuck could run for president. But he doesnt run for anything

PRESENTING: Herman Cain in "Imagine there's no pizza…"
What's better, this or the best picture ever of Mitt Romney?
Imagine there's no pizza
I couldn't if I tried
Eating only tacos
Or Kentucky Fried
Imagine only burgers
It's frightening and sad
You're lucky you have pizza
To feed your kids for you
Only frosting or cookies
And no dishes you must do
Imagine eating pizza
Each and every day
You may say that it's junk food
But to me it's so much more
It gives my life its meaning
And it makes a lot of dough
Imagine mozzarella
Anchovies on the side
And maybe, pepperoni
Rounds out your pizza pie
Imagine getting pizza
Delivered to your door
You don't have to give up now
On my skateboard I will go
I'll be back in 30 minutes
I just bought Dominoes
All I am saying
Is give pizza a chance
All I am saying
Give pizza a chance!
All I am saying
Is give pizza a chance
All I am saying
You've got to, got to give pizza a chance!

The Aston Martin V12 Vantage S is a monster of a sports coupe. At the front, those color-matched fangs and open mouth look like Dracula ready to take a bite. And underneath the hood, the 6.0-liter V12 sounds like the Wolf Man growling whenever the driver gets on the throttle. In a recent video, XCAR got its hands on this wonderful behemoth and showed its brilliant brutality.
The smartest move that the producers made was letting the car speak for itself. Several times during the video, the host shuts up, and the only sound is the bellow from the exhaust of the Aston Martin. The cinematography is pretty darn nice, too. If you don't have time to watch the whole video, skip about 10 minutes into it when XCAR just lets the diabolical V12 thunder. It's definitely one of the highlights. Scroll down to watch – and listen – for yourself.

I have been coming to Provincetown for over 25 years and this last trip reminded me (us) why we love it so much- it was like re-discovering Ptown all over again. We were celebrating my partner's birthday and wanted a clean, quiet place to stay. Little did we know, that The White Porch Inn would exceed our expectations in every way. Even the other guests were great. The food was very good, tastefully prepared, abundant but not excessive. There were mid day treats of fruit and other sweets. This added an amazingly welcoming element to our experience. The room and amenities were perfect and the entire Inn immaculate. All of these things put together made for a great experience but what really set this Inn apart and contributed to the overall outstanding experience was our host, Matt and employee, Miro. Both of these men were professional, attentive, kind and friendly. They gladly made a birthday breakfast with a candle and totally helped make this a special weekend. Additionally, our hosts' humor and sincerity totally sealed the deal. We would like to think that we were "special" guests, but the truth is, Matt treated everyone with the same care and generosity. Perhaps the best B&B experiences I have ever had.

Beautiful rooms, friendly saff and a variety of guests made it one of the more interesting and memorable trips we have had to cape cod. The complimentary breakfast was without doubt the highlight of our stay and we looked forward to it every morning, from the home made quiche and granola to the belgian waffles it was hard to get up and leave for the day.

Second Federal 'Kill-switch' Bill Introduced Targeting Smartphone Theft
Re:Where are stories of maliciously erased iPhones (158 comments)
THIS. Apple has their Activation Lock system (AKA Find My iPhone) already, and I think this law is asking for something like that-- not a remote bricking system that can be activated by just anyone. Unauthorized bricking can only be done if someone guesses the person's Apple ID password, which is exactly as easy as it sounds. Apple's Activation Lock makes in more difficult to resell Apple phones, whether they be legit (like a phone you returned to the store) or stolen.
