*** begin quote ***
ATTORNEY General Andrew Cuomo has alleged vast corruption in the massive taxpayer-guaranteed state pension fund, bringing criminal charges against political consultant Hank Morris and the fund’s former chief investment officer, David Loglisci.
*** end quote ***
The more important question is WHY do we have “public pensions”?

INTERESTING: The time-honored and unchanging free-market principles needed
Sunday, March 15, 2009http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=YTkzMzllNmE3MDM3NDhmMjcxZjA5MTE0OTk5NDJkODQ=
NRO BLOG ROW – THE CORNER – Wednesday, March 11, 2009
*** begin quote ***
Accordingly, conservatism will return to prominence when it uses time-honored and unchanging free-market principles to address new problems, and when it finds advocates who both are adept at communication with non-traditional audiences (e.g., why it is in the interest of African-Americans to be skeptical of abortion on demand, why Hispanic small-business people need to be wary of intrusive regulations, why Asian-Americans should fear affirmative-action-driven de facto racial quotas at the University of California, why talented teachers should not have to join bureaucratic, ossified unions, why today’s young people should not have to pay off Obama’s annual $1.7 trillion deficits, etc.) and believe in their message’s resonance, without trimming[?] for the applause of the moment.
*** end quote ***
As “conservatism” seeks to return us to the “classical liberalism” of the First American Revolution, a little L libertarian like myself can agree that it’s a good first step.
Unfortunately, for as smart as I feel the DOWGs were, and they were far smarter than I, and more courageous as well, I don’t think we can rewind the clock.
We have to take those “classically liberal” principles and move forward applying them to today’s problems.
Just as the King was rightly opposed as tyrannical, so to must we oppose the new “king” — the overpower all-encompassing gooferment.
Empowering the individual to make their own choices and bear the consequences of bad choices.
So, we have to have miniscule government. Close to the people. With it’s only mission being to protect the rights of individuals.
Argh!

SERVICE: CNN LIVE VIDEO steals your bandwidth silently
Friday, February 6, 2009http://windowssecrets.com/comp/090205/
Watch a live video, share your PC with CNN
By Brian Livingston
*** begin quote ***
Many people who watched live streaming video of the inauguration of U.S. President Barack Obama on Jan. 20 may not realize that their PC was used to send the video to other PCs, too.
*** end quote ***
Watch the CNN Live Video, and you too may get booted by your ISP.
This is worth a five minute read about the “dirty pool” being played on users and ISPs. (I’m no fan of ISPs, but in this case they are being taken advantage of as well.)
Argh!

FUN: AHH, now I understand why girls wear short shirts

Belly Button Beauty Cues Potential Mates
Jessica Marshall, Discovery News
Jan. 30, 2009 — Navel-gazing may serve a useful purpose, after all. People may use belly button beauty to assess the fitness of a potential mate, according to Aki Sinkkonen of the University of Helsinki, Finland.
# – # – #
Now it all makes sense. Low rise jeans and short shirts are all to bare the midriff. It’s all about attracting a mate. It’s not enough that gals use chemical warfare to capture us hapless males into a life time of toil. They have to use semi-nudity too?
ROFL.
Run for your lives men.

JOBSEARCH: “Quick networking building” is “jumbo shrimp”
Wednesday, January 14, 2009http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1331895
8 Simple Ways for Building a Network Quickly! by George Hayes
# – # – #
IMHO, there is no way to build one quickly.
“Networking” is the creation of a web of interested people, that you have bonded with in someway, who will alert you to things you should know. It’s using the law of weak links to create a vast army of job search agents. They know what you want and are standing by to “call it in to you” when they see it.
By definition, you can’t do that quickly.
As readers here know, I “subscribe” to the Lucht school of networking. A formal process of gettikng in front of someone and asking for help.
Effective, but time consuming.
IMHO, networking is “first seek to help, then be helped”.
By definition, you can’t do that quickly.

POLITICAL: How can the people get an honest shake

Leveraging election fraud with census fraud (updated)
Tom H. Sleeter
*** begin quote ***
Vote fraud can thereby live on, not only through phony votes cast on Election Day, but through phony people being created for the census. It would be wise to be vigilant on this as 2010 approaches.
*** end quote ***
As evidenced by the MN Franken election, keep counting until you get ehr result you want and then urge everyone to stop.
Clearly, the census and vote are gooferment process subject to honest effort and deliberate fraud.
Argh!
It would seem that we have to get the “electing” done once at a very local level and then use representatives all the way from there. Once you vote for your alderman, then they vote for mayor. Then, the mayors select a county executive. The county execs vote for guv. Guvs vote for president.
Truly representative republic!
