Ref this latest, one of my brothers lives near Salisbury here in the UK and I asked him if he knew of the shooting outfit and the pulverising of pheasants that you mention. He said: "The shoot is just North East of Broadchalke a couple of miles out of Salisbury up the Chalke Valley. One of my circular cycling routes takes me past Manor Farm just the other side of Broadchalke (Fyfield Bavant). On Mondays at lunchtimes I go past the farm and outside a small "meeting room/hall " all the shooting types are hanging around waiting to be fed by the farmer's wife and others. Affluent bunch in their BMW 4 x 4's . Could this be them ? Pretty sure this is it. Did beating on an estate just once many years ago just to see what went on. A lousy pastime if you can call it that." It looks like a relic of our feudal past and seems to be the haunt of our City boys (or was now that they're reined in a little) and their friends. http://www.shootinggazette.co.uk/shootfeatures/125211/Partridge_and_pheasant_in_the_Salisbury_countryside.html Martha: I was looking back through your ‘previous’ on DV and you have written some good stuff including this http://www.dissidentvoice.org/2007/08/credit-derivative-orgy-is-behind-liquidity-crisis/ in August 2007 which was prescient.

It may be ticky-tack to most, but Dennis Kozlowski is not in a "Club Fed." He is doing his time in a State Prison, which from the people I know in the "Corrections" business, is the worst place for a person to be. And unlike the others listed, Tyco never went out of business and was doing quite well when Dennis resigned and in still doing well. 8 1/3 to 25 for a "Pay Dispute." That is just ridiculous!

They came in with a bid of $1,200 for a year. It showed me what a bunch of crooks they are. And even after I told them that they still peatered me with e-mail.They are just as rotten as Enron My personal experience with AIG was a bid from them on auto insurance for which I had been paying $400 a year.
