Goldman Sachs Faces U.K., German Regulatory Reviews
U.K. and German financial regulators are investigating whether they can take action against Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in relation to a lawsuit filed last week by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Financial Services Authority is investigating "whether there are any implications for the U.K.-regulated entities of Goldman Sachs," Leigh Calder, an FSA spokesman, said in an interview. "If there are, we will take appropriate action. We work closely with overseas regulators and will cooperate fully with the SEC."
The FSA's preliminary investigation follows comments from Prime Minister Gordon Brown today that the regulator would probe the bank because there were "individuals that had questions to answer." He repeated that employees of the bank exhibited "moral bankruptcy."
The SEC filed a suit against the New York-based bank on April 16, citing fraud and misrepresentation in the marketing of a collateralized debt obligation linked to subprime mortgages. Goldman Sachs fell 13 percent that day and the shares fell 1.5 percent to $159.16 at 11:21 a.m. in New York Stock Exchange trading today.
The SEC alleges that in early 2007, as U.S. home prices were falling, Goldman Sachs created and sold a CDO without disclosing that hedge fund Paulson & Co. helped pick the underlying securities and bet against the vehicle, known as Abacus 2007-AC1. The hedge fund wasn't named in the lawsuit.
Goldman Sachs pledged it would fight the case and denies wrongdoing.
Recent Discovery
Germany's BaFin will request information from the SEC and review the facts before deciding on what steps to take, the regulator's spokeswoman Sabine Reimer said in an interview today. The German securities regulator only learned about the suit when the SEC disclosed it on April 16, Reimer said.
The FSA will need to show that either individuals or companies based in the U.K. were involved in wrongdoing to take action, lawyers said. The regulator can ban individuals or fine companies, they said.
The SEC named Fabrice Tourre, a Goldman Sachs vice president, in the suit. While Tourre works in the bank's London office, he moved to London in November 2008, FSA records show. The SEC is examining conduct before that date.
"What we're talking about is a possible conflict of interest. That's what it boils down to," said Ben Blackett-Ord, the chief executive officer or London-based Bovill Ltd., which advises companies on regulation. "The FSA would be looking at whether the firm has appropriate procedures in place to prevent conflicts."
False and Misleading
The FSA can also criminally prosecute individuals for making false and misleading statements, which carries a maximum penalty of seven years in jail.
"If the FSA could show that Goldman Sachs had made a misleading statement about an investment and it took place in the U.K., then the FSA could be the prosecuting authority," said Simon Morris, a regulatory lawyer at London-based CMS Cameron McKenna.
Another U.K. prosecutor, the Serious Fraud Office, hasn't opened a formal investigation into the case. It typically prosecutes complex and cross-border frauds.
"We routinely monitor situations of reported concern to see if the circumstances might warrant a more formal SFO involvement," David Jones, an SFO spokesman, said in an e-mail.
IKB, RBS Losses
German and British banks both lost money because of the fraud, according to the SEC suit. The Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc unwound a position in Abacus bought by its ABN Amro unit by paying Goldman $840.9 million, the SEC said. Germany's IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG lost nearly all of its $150 million investment in Abacus, according to the lawsuit.
RBS, which is majority-owned by the U.K., may consider taking legal action against Goldman Sachs, Brown said in a Bloomberg Television interview today. RBS declined to comment.
"The FSA is very prudent about using its powers and it isn't very likely to be bounced into this by the prime minister seeking to score political points," said CMS's Morris. "It doesn't prosecute cases that it isn't reasonably certain it can win."
The FSA was created by Brown in 1997. He now faces an election on May 6. Opposition Conservatives say they will carve up the FSA's powers if they are successful in ousting Brown's Labour government.
IKB is examining all options including legal action, Patrick von der Ehe, a spokesman for the Dusseldorf-based bank, said today.
U.S. Lawsuits
While Bafin can investigate and issue fines in some cases, it can't bring a criminal case without assistance from prosecutors.
Andreas Tilp, a German attorney who represents an IKB shareholder in a case over the lender's subprime losses, said the bank should file its own civil suit against Goldman. The U.S. would be the best jurisdiction to file a suit because IKB could initiate a class action, or group, case, he said.
"IKB could just take the SEC's complaint as a boiler plate and file its own suit; it would be pretty simple," he said. Chancellor Angela Merkel should "use her political influence to make IKB sue Goldman in the U.S. instead of setting her hopes on some action by BaFin," he said.
France's securities regulator, the Autorite des Marches Financiers, said it was examining whether any French investors lost money.
"The investigations concerns foremost the United States, and we have no evidence at this stage that would lead us to think that this possibly fraudulent activity could have been committed under French jurisdiction," an AMF official said today.
Tourre, 31, joined Goldman Sachs in 2001 after receiving a bachelor's degree in mathematics from the Ecole Centrale Paris, one of France's top engineering schools.

Since beginning the benchmarking in 2010, Ponemon and ID Experts have found that threats to healthcare organizations have increased. The organizational costs for dealing with breaches are climbing as well, with the average price tag increasing from $2.1 million in 2010 to $2.4 million in 2012. The report projects that eventually the annual cost of continuous breaches for the industry "could potentially be as high as $7 billion."
Of the organizations participating in the study, 46% are part of a healthcare network, 36% part of an integrated delivery system, and 18% are standalone hospitals or clinics. This year, the study engaged 80 organizations and conducted 324 interviews. Respondents participating in the study were from all areas of an organization, including security, administration, privacy, compliance, finance and clinical.
[ Wearable devices equipped with sensors and Web connections help consumers track health and fitness. Take a look at what's possible now. 10 Wearable Devices To Keep Patients Healthy. ]
"… [T]hings aren't getting better -- they're getting worse in some respects," said Larry Ponemon, M.D., chairman and founder of independent research organization the Ponemon Institute, in an interview with InformationWeek Healthcare. "Almost every hospital [surveyed] suffered one data breach, and 45% suffered more than five over the past two years." Additionally, 54% of respondents admitted they don't have the confidence in their ability to detect all patient data losses.
Other key findings: Hospitals are waking up to the fact that medical billing and insurance information is increasingly at risk. In fact, more than half of the organizations surveyed reported medical identity theft, "which has been around for ages, but some hospitals haven't realized it's a big problem," said Ponemon. Additionally, IT is playing a significant role in the rise of data breaches, particularly with the onslaught of BYOD programs and mobile device usage.
According to the study, 81% of organizations permit employees to use their own mobile devices to access patient information, but 46% admit to "doing nothing at all to ensure BYOD is secure," said Ponemon. "54% express no confidence or low-level confidence that these devices are secure." Breaches due to lost or stolen devices such as phones or tablets accounted for 7% of breaches last year, added Ponemon. This year? "They accounted for 18%," he said.
Rick Kam, CEO at data breach consulting firm ID Experts, said in an interview that the study highlights three key areas that IT execs need to address.
First, "[IT professionals] are doing what they've done in years past: the same policies and procedures, and … they're looking at this problem on a catastrophic basis, as opposed to something that happens on a daily basis."
Instead, professionals need to take daily steps to prepare for a breach if and when one does occur. "They need to take the appropriate level of investments to protect and then respond to a breach when it happens," he said. Second, Kam said 95% of organizations recognize the negative impact that medical billing breaches have on patients, but 74% of organizations don't offer monitoring or support services of any kind to individuals whose information has been breached.
Last, Kam said he and his team recommend organizations form an incident response plan. But what's different from years past, he said, is that larger enterprises have hundreds or even thousands of business associates they exchange information with, whether through the cloud, email, and even medical devices. "When an organization does an incident response plan, they need to ensure their partners are part of that plan," he said. "[Partners] need to play a role in the plan and become part of the solution."

The cybersecurity profession struggles to retain women (figures range from 10 to 20 percent). It's particularly worrisome for an industry with a rapidly growing number of vacant positions.
So why does the shortage of women continue to be worse in security than in other IT sectors? How can men in infosec be better allies for women; and how can women be better allies for one another? What is the industry doing to fix the problem -- what's working, and what isn't?
Is this really a problem at all? Are the low numbers simply an indication that women do not want to be in cybersecurity, and is it possible that more women will never want to be in cybersecurity? How many women would we need to see in the industry to declare success?

The latest X-event, "Second Coming," holds great significance for many individuals â both imagined and real. For the mutants of the Marvel Universe, it signals the arrival of Hope, the first (and only) mutant born since the events of Decimation and the supposed savior of mutantkind. For the creative powers behind the X-books, it signifies the culmination of a three-year storyline. Essentially, there is a lot riding on Hope â letâs keep our fingers crossed that she lives up to everyoneâs expectations.
Hopeâs birth was also notable in that it marked a change in the modus operandi for the X-Men. For possibly the first time ever, an X-team was sanctioned to kill with the formation of a new X-Force. Written by Craig Kyle and Chris Yost, this team was initially sent out to retrieve Hope when she was born. Since that time, however, their mission has been to ensure mutantkindâs survivalâ¦by any means necessary.
Naturally, Hope's return will have implications for this teamâs manifesto. As Kyle and Yost are writing both "Second Coming" and "X-Force," how could it not? The two scribes were kind enough to take time from their extremely busy work schedules (Kyle is also a producer on the live-action "Thor" film, and Yost is hard at work on the animated "Avengers: Earthâs Mightiest Heroes") and answer your emails for todayâs X-POSITION. Feeling lucky? Better buckle your seatbelts â letâs see if youâre ready for a little Hope!
CBR News: Andre4000 starts things off today with a smattering of queries on all things "X":
1) I have some "Second Coming" questions, but first I was hoping you could explain something: in "X-Force" #24, the team arrives on Genosha thanks to Vanisher teleporting them to the island. They arrive, see thousands of 'zombies,' and decide they need to slash their way through these dead folks to get to Seleneâs castle. Um, why didnât they have Vanisher just teleport them to the castle instead? While itâs less fun than stabbing things, it sure is easierâ¦
Chris Yost: Vanisher declined to go. He was going to leave. He was like, "Letâs get the fuck out of here!" He wasnât quite interested in helping them.
Craig Kyle: Exactly. His job was to get them to the island, not to get them to the heart of the site. His plan was to get Elixir to heal him once they arrived and then bug out, which is his normal M.O.
Yost: X-Force really didnât have time to do their usual "torture and force [Vanisher] to help."
Kyle: And they also really didnât know where Warpath was. It was Wolfsbane that ultimately tracked him down with her new Asgardian-enhanced senses.
2) Regarding "Second Coming," how much of the story is yours? While you were writing in the X-verse at the beginning of "Messiah CompleX," were you involved in the planning of Hopeâs story to get to this point?
Yost: A lot of the threads that are going into "Second Coming" were seeded in "X-Force," and that was from day one. Bastion was the main antagonist for our first arc. A lot of those things youâre going to see in "Second Coming" grew out of "X-Force." I think a lot of longtime readers of ours â even from around "New X-Men" â are going to see and hopefully appreciate that this is one big story.
Kyle: Hope is what everyoneâs fighting for, but the threats they face were all borne out of "X-Force." The reason all these guys have come back into the fold â Cameron Hodge, Stryker, Bastion â all that stuff started in our book. And itâs pretty exciting to have a satellite title be a big part of whatâs driving the thread that this event is built upon. Itâs been an honor and a thrill.
You know, early on, I think it was the first year we were on the book, we told the gang that for us to really close the Bastion chapter of "X-Force," it was going to take more than our team. We could handle Selene and her forces, but if it was going to be Bastionâs plan coming to fruitionâ¦if we said X-Force could handle it, weâd be lying. Fortunately, everyone in the room was ready to say, "Yeah, weâd love to do a big event; weâd love to be part of it." So all the talented writers and artists involved were on board with working to make it happen; it was great.
3) Nate Grey (X-Man) and Kitty Pryde have both made sudden reappearances in the X-Universe. In fact, it almost feels as if they were rushed into place prior to the beginning of "Second Coming" because they have parts to play in this story. Soooâ¦do they have major parts to play in this upcoming story?
Yost: Not necessarily. Nate Grey was more involved with "Siege." As to whether heâll be involved with "Second Coming"â¦youâll have to wait and see. But, yeah, at least one of those characters is going to be involved.
Kyle: Often in books, you just happen to have happy coincidences. I mean, we brought a lot of the New Mutants back into the fold too â Magik, Cypher, and what-have-you. But I donât think we had a reason in mind, we were just longtime "New Mutants" fans and wanted to see that team get back together. And Zeb is doing an amazing job with those characters. Sometimes itâs just destiny â you have characters you want to see back in action, and then when theyâre there, you can use them for the events around you.
Speaking of "rushing" things, Big G (not me) had a concern he was hoping you might address.
1) Was "Necrosha" rushed in any way due to the coming of "Second Coming?" I know you two have been brewing "Necrosha" since Selene seduced Wither back in "New X-Men" #32 â and itâs been slowly boiling throughout "X-Force" â but now that it's almost over, the story seems rushed. Maybe itâs just me thoughâ¦
Yost: It wasnât rushed, it was actually expanded an issueâ¦it got bigger.
Kyle: The only unfortunate timing weâre dealing with â which is still great timing â is that we go from event to event. "Necrosha," for us, is the moment where our team gets to shine and show that our underdogs aren't just "team stabby-stabby." They can actually do a great service and save mutantkind better than anyone thought they could. So that's kind of our team send-off. And then, to cap our run on our part in the X-Universe, we do a big Bastion arc. The only unfortunate part is that our team doesnât get that breath in between the two events, but if you look at our run, these guys have never had a chance to catch their breath. Every time they think they've settled one issue, a greater threat rears its head. Our guys have had a nasty run of things ever since we kicked the title back off.
Yost: But the next time we do a book, itâs just going to be all "down" issues. It's going to be two years of "down" issues.
Kyle: [Chuckles] We're actually going to launch a new team, and kill them the first issueâ¦
2) Wither has had it in for Elixir for a long time. Can we expect to see a big showdown between the two? And will it prove to be their final fight?
Yost: Yes, you can certainly expect to see a huge showdown between those two, and, um, you know what? Yeah, it will be their final fight.
Kyle: I think thatâs a very honest answer.
Ooh, ominous. Patrick Bateman also had a question about Elixir thatâs somewhat predicated on your previous responseâ¦
1) If Elixir survives "Necrosha," will his knowledge of who Hope is play a part in "Second Coming?"
Yost: If he had the opportunity to tell somebody what he knowsâ¦that would probably be really useful.
Kyle: That's true. And when you read the next "X-Force" issue, youâll kind of find out where Elixir lands â on which side of the grave. Look, "Second Coming" is about what Hope is and what it means to everybody in the entire X-Universe, so thatâs why weâre doing this saga â thatâs why it's coming â so this is the big payoff.
2) Will the effects of the middle chapter "Messiah War" have any influence on what happens in "Second Coming?" And if so, should we be looking for appearances by Stryfe or Apocalypse?
Yost: I think it will have an effect, but I donât think itâs going to be anything overt â you know, like Apocalypse coming down in a giant spaceship to go after Hope or anything. But I think there was a point to the "Messiah War" [in that it] showed the two sides of Hope â one as a savior and the other as a destroyer. And I think thatâs where "Messiah War" really played a large part, because youâd show the X-Men dealing with this girl whoâs not necessarily living the best life and she very easily might go the [wrong] way. I mean that girl â her entire life â has lived through hell, and Wolverine knows that. He knows and heâs starting to question whether sending her off with Cable â which was Cyclops' choice â was the best choice. Wolverine is starting to question a lot of Cyclops' choices.
Kyle: And if you talk about our team specifically, the effects of what they went through and their experiences with Hope and Cableâ¦yeah, that's a big part of it. As far as Stryfe and Apocalypse, those are ripples in the X-Men's lives that weâll see sort of down the path â not in this current story. But "Messiah War" had a big effect on our team and in their relationship with [Hope and Cable]â¦specifically Hope and X-23. They had a very similar life. They both grew up with lots of strife â not the character â pain, anguish, death. That's a connection they shared when they first met, and thatâs something that will keep them bonded as their story continues.
Zaki Zakaria is curious about another connection Hope shares with someone. Itâs a somewhat tenuous link, but itâs an important one:
Considering that Scarlet Witch is the cause of the current mutant mayhem, will she figure into "Second Coming?" Will she and Hope get the chance to meet face to face in this event?
Yost: No. I think thereâs something coming up to deal with the Scarlet Witch firsthand, but "Second Coming" is all about Hope's homecoming right now and making sure she stays alive to do whatever it is [the X-Men] think she has to do. I think the bigger "No more mutants"/Wanda issue is going to raise its head a little later.
Kyle: To expand on that, ever since we joined the books, or at least started telling an ongoing series with X-Men, the mutants have had their backs up against the wall, their numbers have been the lowest theyâve ever been, and, you know, they've been fighting off death â and us â ever since weâve been writing them. And this is it. Come hell or high water, this war is going to be settled. The forces that are up against them are the worst they've ever faced, and the numbers they have are the fewest they've ever had. This is the turning point. That's the fight, and that's the saga weâre finishing up here. I think itâs going to be a story people are going to be very excited to read. Everyone's brought their best to this.
Yost: Yeah, the Scarlet Witch thing â the "no more mutants"/fate of mutantkind â it weighs heavily on every page of this. I mean, Hope's existence is almost a reaction to what the Scarlet Witch did. It definitely is part of her story, but right now, this is the homecoming story.
Christopher Judd wrote in with questions about "X-Men: Hellbound" (a.k.a. "X-Men: Second Coming Revelations â Hellbound"). This lengthily-titled tale will be written by Mr. Yostâ¦so hopefully, he can answer the following:
1) Judging from the solicitations for "X-Men: Hellbound," can we expect to see much of Illyana Rasputin in the miniseries? Or will the focus of the book revolve around the extraction/rescue team sent to Limbo after her?
Yost: I think itâs a little bit from Column A and a little from Column B. Illyana is definitely in it, but sheâll play the largest part in the third chapter.
Kyle: Okay, I have a follow-up question â would this story be better if we wrote it together?
Yost: Yes, because that would guarantee that Illyana dies then.
Kyle: [Laughs] How dare you!
2) Also â if you're at liberty to discuss this â how did you decide on the group you selected for this miniseries? Cannonball, Pixie, Gambit, Northstar and two of the New X-Men from your previous title? It seems like an unusual mixâ¦
Yost: I asked the X-office who I could kill, and that was the list. [Laughter] No, thereâs a very particular reason each one of them is chosen, and in the first issue you'll see the thought process behind it. I mean, theyâre in the middle of a crisis situation and itâs not like "who can they spare?" â because they canât spare anyone â but theyâre each chosen for a specific reason. And I don't think the full team has been revealed yetâ¦
3) And what prompted you to include "Hellbound" within the "Second Coming" storyline? How tightly are their stories tied together?
Yost: The first issue of "Hellbound" and a very specific issue of "Second Coming" go hand-in-hand. Something happens in "Second Coming" that creates the impetus for this miniseries; the same thing with the other one-shot as well. There are story points in "Second Coming" that basically have to be dealt with, but at the same time, are a little bit of a tangent. So itâs all part of the same story, but I think they were just better dealt with in a little side miniseries.
Joshua Hetherington sent in the final email of the day, and heâs dying to know if your run on "X-Force" is going to go out with a bangâ¦or a baby wolf-like whimper:
1) With upcoming events, I have to ask: will X-Force finally be revealed to all of Utopia? And if so, will the X-Men even bat an eye at the "Wetworks X-Men?" It doesn't seem these days like many X-Men would be against the ideaâ¦
Yost: You will find out this Wednesday [March 31]. The existence of X-Force is something that is going to be dealt with within "Second Coming."
Kyle: And I think itâs safe to say that the X-Men arenât based on a wetworks-like team, so it will have a big effect on those as they find out.
Yost: Absolutely. I mean, there are definitely X-Men there that still see the X-Men as the shining light â theyâre the heroes. And what is happening under their nosesâ¦itâs a betrayal. The X-Men havenât always been an army, they used to be like a tight-knit family. And things have changed â things have gotten more and more desperate â but I think, even with as bad as things have gotten, there are a certain number of the X-Men who are going to be like, "What the hell?!?"
Kyle: Cyclops' play for a long time has been, "If weâre wiped out, thereâs nothing left saving because weâve all been killed off." But the opposite point of view is, "If thereâs really no rules left to ensure survival, what do you have once youâve survived?" Xavierâs dream will definitely be lost in the process if it's just bloodshed that keeps you alive day to day. It's a tough situation and I think thatâs why Cyclops is trying to focus one group on doing those dark acts and keeping another group pure â so Xavier's dream can live in one section, hopefully the largest, while the other pays the highest price to ensure its survival.
2) Will we find out what's going to happen with Wolfsbane and her baby before the end of "Second Coming," or will this story be told elsewhere?
Yost: Iâm going with elsewhere.
Kyle: Agreed. She is obviously part of our last "Necrosha" issue, but Rahneâs ongoing saga is something that deserves more time than the fast-paced and intense storyline that "Second Coming" is going to be. That will be an outstanding issue that will need to be covered as their lives continueâ¦if they survive.
3) Is "X-Force" getting a 'proper ending' that will give readers a sense of conclusion and provide closure of some kind for its characters? Or will your last issue feel open-ended?
Kyle: Weâve said this before â weâve had the last two pages of our run planned since we wrote the first. So this is something that will have a proper ending for us and the story. It's something that should feel satisfying but leave threads for the X-Force team to continue. I think it will be a satisfying conclusion, donât you, Chris?
Yost: No, no I donât. I think people will feel gypped and ripped off, because I know I do.
Kyle: [Laughs] Yeah, thatâs what we planned for two years.
Yost: I think people will definitely want to read "X-Force" #25 as well, because thatâs a big story that wraps up there. There are definitely huge changes to the team that come out of "Necrosha."
Kyle: Yeah, absolutely. That's the first big change. The next one happens once "Second Coming" is overâ¦
Ah, the promise of things to come! Thatâs it for questions from the readers, so now itâs my turn with a little "Behind the X" question. Allow me to be a bit inventive and ask: what do you think has been the greatest invention created in your lifetime?
Kyle: The personal computer.
Yost: Okay, the personal computer video gameâ¦um, I donât even know. Technology has just exploded in my lifetime; like, I used to play with my Commodore 64. It's gotta be computers. I mean, the phones that weâre speaking on have more computing power than the space shuttle. The iPhone, hell, my old Motorola, has more powerâ¦
Kyle: So will you be flying iPhones in space? And does that make your answer video games or the iPhone?
Yost: Wait, Iâve got to go with the Segway.
Kyle: What about the Posturepedic mattress? Could we have a Top Ten?
Yost: What about the thing where you fall down and you canât get up and it contacts someone?
Kyle: The Life-Alert!
Yost: Yes! The Life-Alert! Thatâs my final answer. We would all be dead without that.
Kyle: So thatâs our answers â the personal computer and Life-Alert. But I also think we should be using iPhones to fly into spaceâ¦
BONUS ANNOUNCEMENT: Just as I was about to get off the phone with our gracious guests, they wanted to let fans know one more thing â "X-Force: Sex and Violence" is coming! They said art on the first two issues of this miniseries (written by Kyle and Yost with art by Gabrielle DelâOtto) is complete and that readers should be looking for this title in the solicitations coming three weeks from now.
Next week in X-POSITION, expect lots of newfound fun with âNew Mutantsâ scribe Zeb Wells. Much has occurred with the team as of late, so youâre bound to have questions; just type them up and send them my way as quickly as possible. Putting an âX-Positionâ in the subject line increases your odds of being visited by the Easter Beagle, so be sure to do that as well. Happy egg hunting!

A man was taken into custody following the execution of a drug search warrant Friday morning in Lansing, a Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office spokesman said.
Sheriff's deputies served the search warrant around 9 a.m. Friday at an apartment in the 200 block of West Kay Street.
During the search, officers seized suspected methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, according to Undersheriff Jim Sherley.
A 46-year-old man was arrested for possession of methamphetamine, felony possession of drug paraphernalia and using a telecommunications device to conduct drug sales. The man also was arrested for an unrelated Leavenworth County District Court warrant for failure to appear.
The case has been submitted to the Leavenworth County Attorney's Office for prosecution. Sherley said the suspect could face charges for allegedly selling drugs within 1,000 feet of Lansing Elementary School.

The under-fire Phoenix have attempted to employ a
possession-based focus during the past six weeks but the
supposed change in approach hasn't yielded success because
they haven't won in their past five outings.
Playing pretty football is one thing but substance will trump
style if it results in putting three points on the board and
considering the Phoenix are last on the A-League ladder after
18 rounds their fanbase would take any kind of win at the
Yesterday (Sun) the Phoenix were held to a boring 1-1 draw
against the Newcastle Jets at Westpac Stadium after a 73rd
minute goal from Emile Heskey rubbed out the advantage the
home side earned through Louis Fenton in the first spell.
It was a throwback performance to the days of when the
Phoenix knew what they were about.
They had a stern focus on stout defence, coupled with a
cross-heavy approach and played with the sort of heart that
hadn't been seen in a couple of months.
Newcastle coach Gary van Egmond was asked after the game if
he thought the Phoenix were a changed outfit of late.
"From a perspective of maybe, like you said, confidence, but
that also comes with getting results and what have you," van
Egmond said.
"I think they're a different team but I don't think they're a
different team in regards to how they look to play."
It was a fair assessment too.
Wellington's goal came on the back of a Ben Sigmund long ball
and they should've opened the scoring only minutes earlier
from the same provider but Jeremy Brockie failed to find the
back of the net with the goal at his mercy.
Fenton's goal was his third of the season and a nice return
for a good performance from the 19-year-old from Tawa who has
been the find of the summer for the Phoenix.
The Phoenix have been guilty of spurning chances in front of
goal in recent weeks and even though they were beaten 7-1
against Sydney FC in round 17 they could have been three or
four goals to the good in the early stages of the game.
Wellington assistant coach Chris Greenacre, who spent 17
years as a striker in the professional ranks, said the goals
were on the horizon for his men they just needed to be more
"We had a couple of chances [yesterday] and in fairness we've
created a lot of opportunities of late and we are just
waiting to stick it in the back of the net," he said.
"But from a personal point of view I think when you're
creating opportunities that's always a positive. Having been
there myself where we haven't created much and strikers
aren't getting chances is a real sore point. But we'll keep
continuing to train hard, work hard, keep getting those balls
in the right areas and I'm sure the tide will turn at some
point, we've just got to keep putting those chances in for
the strikers."
Wellington's next chance to get back in the winner's circle
comes on Saturday night when they host the Perth Glory in a
"home" game at Auckland's Eden Park.

My favorite pursuit in life is music. I am in a band called Matte Black Silhouettes. But outside of that one of my hobbies is, of course, photography and drinking wine. My head is constantly filled with words, ideas, music, visions, booze, and the occasional stare into nothingness. So this gives me another reason to keep my mind proactive. I have been in a relationship with my Diana+ for two and half years and we treat each other very well. Diana+ is the special Meg/White Stripe Edition. She is lovely.

Tagged: body language, fight, introducing, Kitten, new home, Play
This topic contains 4 replies, has 4 voices, and was last updated by feral 4 years, 10 months ago.
18 September, 2011 at 7:35 am #47969
Hello DK,
This is my first post and I searched some but didn't find a related topic so I am posting one in hopes someone might shed some light on the subject.
Quick background: New Kitten (1 month) was slowly, through the span of three weeks introduced to her new home with us and our two playful but friendly Lhasa Apsos.
The three of them were introduced to each other gradually, sniffing the door, then letting Keiko (the kitten) roam free while they sniffed around her new living area. Then finally, they were to meet one on one, with supervision and the dogs on a leash. They go their respective areas once play time is over.
Everything seems to be going fine, however Keiko has this way about her. She likes to pounce and jump to "boo" you and run away. The dogs love it and get very happy, tails a waggin and then give chase. But am I confusing Keiko's actions?
Is she actually saying "go away" when I think she's saying "come get me"?18 September, 2011 at 7:43 am #694203
Welcome to TDK, Nate. I think most of our members would agree that if your kitten is not displaying any signs of anger, such as hissing and/or growling and/or biting your dogs, that she is just playing with them. If she did not like them, she would hide from them or show signs of anger. She is engaging them in roughhousing. She sounds very friendly! It sounds like your dogs have a great new playmate.
We'd love to see some photos of all of them!18 September, 2011 at 8:31 am #694204
Sounds like playing to me Nate, if it wasn't Keiko would most likely be verbal as well as physical with her disapproval. You have a great little family there and we'd love to hear and maybe see more of them.18 September, 2011 at 1:59 pm #694205
Thank you for your very positive feedback and glad I could give some joy to the forum! I only bring this up in concern for all their safety as this would be our first kitten. I would be less worried if my alpha dog wasn't constantly following her and giving chase the moment Keiko breaks into anything more than a trot.
They are not violent, but they are bigger and heavier than she is and I'd hate for any of them to get too rough and accidentally hurt.
Does anyone else have a similar living situation?
PS – I'll dig up some photos and upload them for you!18 September, 2011 at 6:26 pm #694206
No dofs in this household but with 7 kits,I do have the …This is all mine…stay out of my space….not in my food dish will you eat from sorta language. They do let each other know when they aren't pleased w/the other. I'm sure little Keiko would/willlet them know if they get too rough.
And Welcome to TDK Nate!!

Maybe if we hadn't foregone every other competition in an attempt to get into the CL so he'd stay then we might have won something. In hindsight all we had to do was give him an extra £60k a week and then we could have had a go at the UEFA cup because obviously that is what he really wanted.

I've never even heard of that place, but three days notice? That ought to be illegal.
thrifting has been dead for 10 years.
what was their gimmick?
I think their "gimmick" was they got whatever Value Village or St. Vinnie's didn't want.
And does this mean that Fabricland next to the Greenwood Thriftko is going under as well?
Fabricland is gone already.
I'm a little nervous: what is the actual plan now for that whole plot of land? Is it posted somewhere?
Thriftko will be missed. I've gotten some pretty sweet clothes there.
@1 three days notice? That ought to be illegal.
So... how many days notice do you propose be required by law? One must reasonably assume that you intend that such a requirement should be mutual to both employee and employer. (Any thing less would be neither equitable nor just, right?)
I think we are better off with at will employment, it helps us avoid pesky things like forced labor and other forms of slavery (At least try to consider unintended consequences...)
casualty of urban redevelopment = failed to adapt.
YEAH for Urban Redevelopment!!! More mixed use buildings for Seattle!! I know we just have such a shortage of high priced condos and retail space that no one will ever be able to afford. This will help alleviate that shortage!!!!
Isn't that part of Greenwood a giant sinkhole -- literally, not figuratively? The recently built mixed-use thing between Thriftko and the Safeway has been shrouded and re-sided at least twice in the past three years, and it still has cracks in it.
Every place I've ever worked required me to give a certain amount of notice before I quit. In the same vein, none of those employers felt it was required to give their employees notice before lay-offs or firings. For workers, notice is required. For employers, it's optional.
I'm pretty sure that Greenwood store is already gone. Hope that's not a sinkhole - they're building more condos over that entire block. Yikes.
Thriftko was the worst goddamn thrift store in the universe. Their stores were filled with GARBAGE. Good riddance.
Though I did once buy a 48-J bra there once.
Yuppie scum stay away from my Baranof!
I don't believe the "two weeks notice" is an actual legal requirement for quitting your job, it has simply become an accepted practice, and employers usually push it as leverage if you want to get a good job recommendation from them, for example. However, it's my understanding that employers are not under any legal obligation to continue to pay a salary after receiving a letter of resignation, and in many instances the employee may be told to not return to work well before the two-week period expires due to security or retaliatory concerns.
In fact, many career councillors now advise workers to be prepared to leave the moment their letter of resignation hits their boss' desk, since there is a very strong likelihood they will be asked to leave immediately anyway.
The Baranof appears to be safe for now. And yes, much of the thriftko site is over a peat bog. The block is being redeveloped. The McDonald's on Greenwood Ave is also going.
There will be a new street from Greenwood Avenue to 1st running east west (let's call it 86th). The building that the Thriftko is in will get a new facade on the north side to face the new street, and new unknown tenants. A new mixed use building (3 stories) will go in across the street where there is now a parking lot. The buildings will be built on pilings reaching to solid ground, and no basement is allowed in the peat bog area.
The Mcdonalds site will also have the new street, and two-story buildings on the corners created at 86th and Greenwood. At 86th and Palatine there will be a multi-story office building on the south side, and, some day, a mixed use building on the north side.
Some of the streets will incorporate natural drainage, I think a first in a neighborhood business district.
The property owner was very good about taking the project through neighborhood planning and responding to feedback.
Greenwood has characteristics of business districts to the south which grew up around streetcars (we had the interurban once), and auto-oriented ones to the north. It will be interesting to see how well the new developments do in helping create a pedestrian friendly business district.
The Value Village on 11th and Pike looks like it's being sold too, it has a huge developers sign on it.
Wow, that's good news about the site. I'll kind of miss driving through there in its current, falling-into-the-earth state; it's like driving on a giant potato chip. But when it rains, it's a lake.
I miss the fabric store a lot more than I will the crappy thrift store. Hancock is closing a lot of their older stores, which makes getting decent fabric and notions -- god damn, I love notions -- harder and harder. You end up in the hell that is Jo-Ann or Michael's, which is a piss-poor substitute.
I think that everyone should be unionized and that the rich should be taxed for being alive. Libertairians should be liquidated, and their assets given to the poor.
Greenwood? Urban? I don't think so.
Home sweet home!
Hey, that wasn't a crappy thrift store! I even made the trek up to Aurora after the Greenwood one closed down. I think 80% of my wardrobe came from there! You could always get into a fitting room, and they played agreeable oldies, and it was a thousand times less depressing than any other thrift store I know.
And thrifting is hardly dead, for those of us who aren't into working hours and hours just for one outfit. Jeez.
I've always gotten my clothes from Thriftko, they were an awesome thrift store, compared to Thrftko, St. vinnies and Value Village are overpriced, Ever since i was a little kid my mom and I have gone there on holiday half off days we were going to buy a halloween costume today to find that it was closed. Our bestfind there was a $50 fully working Gulbransen electric church organ, not to mention my entire wardrobe. It was by no means a crappy thrift store.
