Global Entertainment Corp. announced today the grand opening of its two new event centers in Allen, Texas and Independence, Missouri.

Allen, Texas is proud of their beautiful new Allen Event Center (AEC). At the official ribbon cutting ceremony this past Nov. 4, 500 spectators packed the plaza entrance to hear Mayor Stephen Terrell welcome the happy citizens of Allen and people throughout Collin County.

Terrell conveyed his and the community’s excitement, recounting the opening events, which included a winning hockey game and a Reba McEntire concert (both of which saw a packed house), and said this was all the result of “years of strategic planning” involving the deliberate, coordinated cultivation of the Allen region of North Texas as an attractive venue.

Allen City Manager Peter Vargas proclaimed it a “fantastic day”, praising this new cultural achievement for his city, which can now “provide the community with quality entertainment at a

Baltimore — (TFN): Some good friends of mine recently took their TV out to their front yard, put two high-brass shells in their 12 gauge and pulled the trigger.  They rendered the hunk of glass and plastic useless. Called it Alaskan waste disposal.

After last night, I’m ready to get out the 00 buckshot, myself.

I’ve got my eye out for good intentions, gone bad after spending the last three editions of Notes discussing the idea of financial regulatory reform.

During 52-mile commute home yesterday, they were all over the place, anything from idiotic signs to a couple of state cops setting a trap and writing tickets for not moving to the left lane when passing a stopped emergency vehicle.

The gung-ho troopers had rush-hour traffic slowed for over a mile.

But my mind really started spinning when I passed an out-of-state big rig. I could not help but notice the federal and state ID

Nikolai Zobin in today's Moscow Times laments that President Medvedev persistently highlights the level of corruption in Russia, whilst, by all accounts, the problem of graft has increased during his Presidency. (See yesterday's 'corruption blast' for the latest examples).  When the President is nominally one of the most powerful men in Russia, why is it that Medvedev seems incapable of transforming word into deed? Deeds, such as, quite simply, firing people:After all, Medvedev is not only the president of all Russians -- he is the leader of all bureaucrats, who act as his representatives at every level government. He is the only person in the country who has the power to remove anybody at any time. ...

Today has not been a good day for the respectability of Russia's organizations.  Firstly we have the weekend's  police corruption You Tube video, whose revelations about alleged case fabrications and all manner of other dishonest practices have put quite a dampener on Police Day.  Secondly, it has been announced today that 22 criminal cases have been opened into 'ineffective sending of state funds' among state-run enterprises.  Thirdly, we have Alexander Morozenko, the mayor of Korolyov, who has been put under investigation for misuses of state funding.  Two Moscow region officials have also been charged with embezzling more than $105 million from the local budget as part of an extortion ruse engineered by the area's ex-chief financial official, ...

TODAY: Markelov murder suspect reportedly confesses; vengeance a possible motive?  Activist abducted in Moscow.  Spy chief issues warning on Georgia; Lavrov surprised at Poland soliciting US help.  Medvedev reserves army use for emergencies. Luzhkov lays into Abramovich; new vodka pricing; toy story. The Moscow Times reports that revenge may be the motive behind the shooting of human rights lawyer Stanislav Markelov.  Apparently the alleged gunman Nikita Tikhonov may have been a suspect in the stabbing of anti-fascist activist Alexander Ryukhin in 2006, whose mother Markelov was a lawyer for.  The other suspect, Eugenia Khasis, 24, appears to have no prior convictions.  Apparently the killer has confessed - the Other Russia reporting it to be ...

The ever-positive Vladimir Putin is forecasting 8% inflation for the coming year, which would be a 'post-Soviet low'.  The government will sell tons of its gold stockpile this year to cover its budget deficit and help it fund other supporting measures such as Moscow's $570 million federal loan.  Private lender Alfa Bank is working on debt restructuring terms for giants BasEl and RusAl, and threatening to take the latter to court over unpaid debts.  St Petersburg Bank plans to raise up to $150 million selling additional preference shares to cope with its losses.  Reuters has compiled a timeline on Russia's bad loans.  'For all of the vaunted stability of the current regime, Russians still don't believe in the permanence of their system enough to invest into their society,' comments this reporter in a piece about ...
