#comment-3938: "Cellphones are also told to disturb hearth pace due to misunderstandings of research papers. Anyway, it seems a good idea to use the hand-free devices just in case!! In the other hand, there are a lot of things that probably have more influence in memory loss, starting with not exercising it…. but cellphones stuff is more atractive for the media.
I’ve loved your blog since I added the feed (two or three weeks ago). Good work!!!"

naked capitalism: SEC Skipped Normal Inspection of Madoff Hedge Fund

naked capitalism: SEC Skipped Normal Inspection of Madoff Hedge Fund: "So how did Madoff get away with his $50 billion fraud? Time will tell when and how it started, although I'd hazard the dot com bust. Madoff may have been unwilling to report losses, and assumed (initially) that no one would be hurt if he fibbed if he could eventually trade his way out of trouble. But given the freakish consistency of his returns, it could have been phony from the get go.

The critical bit was that Madoff's firm executed its own trades. No nasty third-party records to diverge with what the customer statements showed.

But another shocker came to light today: the SEC, via its own protocols, should have inspected the Madoff Ponzi operation prior to the end of 2007 and failed to. Why? Evidently, due to Madoff's good reputation in the industry."

I do not know the political leanings of this blog aite, however honest reporting, newspreading, and sharing the information is what I try to in some of my blogs. What this has to do with splitting atoms, well, it may, and then again it may not. Why split hairs over it?
