JC Flowers, the US private equity firm, made a last-ditch bid yesterday to wreck Sir Richard Branson's takeover of Northern Rock after it signalled possible increased payouts for shareholders as part of a revised offer.
The move is likely to heighten tensions between the three main bidders for the bank and the Treasury, which is thought to be keen on a quick sale to close the door on the politically and financially embarrassing episode.
Sources close to Flowers said attempts to sit down with Treasury officials this week had proved fruitless, despite promises from the government that all takeover proposals would be examined.
The Treasury denied last night that it was reluctant to engage in talks with the Flowers team. "We stand ready to have discussions with any bidder that meets the principles we set out," it said.

We just saw an exhibition of his work last Sunday. Absolutely stunning. I especially loved his painting of Grand Central Station and the fact the station still looks pretty much the same almost a hundred years later.

I had two students once that I had to bust for plagiarizing large portions of their papers. When confronted, one broke down, fessed up, and spent the rest of the semester working to recover. The other first denied it, then asked "Was that not allowed?" and spent the rest of the semester with a tone of snotty resentment. Rove is the type whose response would have been to slash my tires, rape my cat, and try to get me fired.

Found this through a link over at Phila's place. This company will send one solar powered flashlight to a developing country for every one bought by us'ns.
You can choose to some extent which organization will distribute your BOGO light(s).
$25--you get to give a good thing for the environment (and self--like having a flashlight in the car which will always work--if you remember to put it in the sun) and getting a flashlight to people in an area where the only light at night is from kerosene and other carbon based and somewhat dangerous sources.
This company is working on an orbe which will illuminiate an entire room. Sounds cool. No real info yet.

I have to rephrase my earlier post. I did see the Fred Thompson "Lazy like a Fox" article, and I just had to read it, because I had to confirm what I suspected.
It basically was telling us that Fred gives the impression that he's lazy and stupid and dumb, but he's really smart, intelligent, and funny.
It sounded like the article they would have wrote for Allen and took out Allen's name and put Fred's name in there.

In a normal world, it would be a joke. But in the Newsweek world, being lazy is a good thing.
In Thompson's early days of campaigning, he was asked questions about certain world events, and he kept saying "he didn't know about that, or he doesn't keep up on things like that", like he was playing the role of "I'm just a good old boy who doesn't read and just likes to sit on the front porch whittling a piece of wood".

After being sent Rove's comments, Card said he did not want to argue with him. He said he recalled much discussion in the White House about whether it was wise to seek a congressional vote before deciding it would demonstrate American unity. But asked if the White House opposed having the vote before the election, he said, "I don't remember that. I don't remember it being done in the context of the election."
And, as the article points out:
News accounts and transcripts at the time show Bush arguing against delay. Asked on Sept. 13, 2002, about Democrats who did not want to vote until after the U.N. Security Council acted, Bush said, "If I were running for office, I'm not sure how I'd explain to the American people -- say, 'Vote for me, and, oh, by the way, on a matter of national security, I think I'm going to wait for somebody else to act.' "
'Course, as Rove knows, a lie is halfway 'round the world before Truth can get its boots on.

Geez, how typical this is:
WASHINGTON - The Bush administration is laying out a new secrecy defense in an effort to end a court battle about the White House visits of now-imprisoned lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
The administration agreed last year to produce all responsive records about the visits "without redactions or claims of exemption," according to a court order.
But in a court filing Friday night, administration lawyers said that the Secret Service has identified a category of highly sensitive documents that might contain information sought in a lawsuit about Abramoff's trips to the White House.
Eventually, people are going to get sick of this shit and resort to pitchforks and torches.

She went from Gabriel Byrne to THIS clown?
Ellen Barkin's agents have fired back at ex-husband and Revlon cosmetics mogul Ronald Perelman, calling his lawsuit against the actress and her brother "a cynical abuse of the legal system."
Perelman, 63, sued Barkin and her brother George in New York on Wednesday, claiming they siphoned money from a film production company they formed together and used it to create a competing company and pay George Barkin $250,000 a year.
Perelman and Barkin, 53, divorced in 2006. She sued him in August, saying he had failed to keep an agreement made before their divorce to fund the company they created, Applehead I, with $3.4 million. Barkin and her brother continue to operate the production company.
Chris Taylor, a spokeswoman for Perelman, issued a statement Wednesday saying Barkin's lawsuit to get money for Applehead I was an attempt "to further enrich herself."
A spokeswoman for Applehead issued a statement Thursday calling Perelman's lawsuit "frivolous," "without merit" and "yet another attempt to avoid honoring his written contract to contribute more than $3 million to Applehead Pictures."
"The fact is, Applehead only has money because others stepped in to contribute what Perelman wrongfully withheld," the statement says. "Perelman's cynical abuse of the legal system is disappointing, but not surprising."

FReeper sez Hillary hostage crisis was contrived:
Of course the “crisis” was manufactured.
Herself, the Cold and Joyless, has to show “fearlessness in the face of adversity”, so this whole fiasco was staged, in some obscure storefront “embassy” at a great distance from where Herself was caught in some memory lapse. For several days, Herself will escape scrutiny and not have to directly confront questions about other much more pressing issues.
But in real life, some five years down the road, how will Herself deal with the adverse occupancy of some US embassy in a distant land, with whom we already have strained relations?
We know how well Jimmy Carter dealt with a similar situation.

If they feel the need to gin up their circulation by adding the print equivalent of Jerry Springer, they must be at death's door financially.

Exactly. The feeling of having come back in from the cold, with the blood still circulating rapidly and the toeses warming up, a fire, something nice to drink. Life is good.

Back when CNN was CNN they had some lovely footage of the results of freezing rain in Atlanta - city bus, fortunately by itself, doing a nice, lazy 360 as it went around a freeway curve.

Nonsense. It was named after an enthusiastic sex act.

Made more dramatic by the theme music they added, no doubt.

Well, I laugh at the funny colored money in Australia. I think it's called "dollars".

If Athenae becomes Comptroller of Currency after the revolution the denomination would be the Flufftit, but money would be commonly referred to as Frillies.

A commission tasked with setting a demarcated border between Ethiopia and Eritrea has dissolved amid continuing tensions between the two countries.
The Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission (EEBC), which was charged with setting a border both on maps and on the ground, ended its mandate on Saturday.
Ethiopia and Eritrea had opted not to allow the commission, which was set up by the Hague-based Permanent Court of Arbitration, to stay on past its November-end deadline.
In 2002, the EEBC granted Eritrea the border town of Badme, a decision that Ethiopia has not accepted.
How tedious.
