SideKick 3 (LRG Edition)
In Mid- Fall 2006 T-Mobile teamed with iconic clothing design company LRG to release its latest edition of the uber popular Smart Phone. The Hiptop 3 LRG Limited Edition sports a now green color scheme and comes with all the features of the original SideKick 3.
Littered throughtout the face frame are the LRG's baby tree design imagery and the slogan "Underground Inventive" meaning the begginning, the roots of something yet to be and "Overground Effective" meaning what happens when those roots grow and become strong. It is rumoured that only 1,000 Limited Edition SideKick 3's have been made (500 LRG and 500 DV) but this has not been confirmed or denied by T-Mobile.

John Ruffo
John Ruffo and his associate, Edward (ED) J. Reiners, developed an elaborate scheme which defrauded more than ten banks of $350 million dollars. Reiners, a former employee of Phillip Morris, went to several banks and pretended that he was in charge of a “top-secret” project for the tobacco company. Ruffo introduced himself as being in charge of purchasing computers for this phantom project. Reiners and Ruffo used the money that they borrowed from the banks to invest in the stock market. According to investigators, both lost miserably in the market.
Over the course of two years, the "project" that Ruffo and Reiners thought up kept growing and growing. Nine US and international banks were on-board. The con men met with Vice Presidents from these banks, convincing them to hand over hundreds of millions of dollars to the bogus operation. The plan unraveled when an official from the Long Term Credit Bank of Japan called Phillip Morris and asked for Reiners. He was shocked to hear that Reiners hadn't worked there in almost three years.
The con men were arrested and convicted. Reiners is currently serving a 16 and a half year sentence.
In March 1996, John Ruffo was convicted of one-hundred sixty counts of bank fraud, money laundering, wire fraud and conspiracy. He cost several foreign and U.S. banks more than three-hundred fifty million dollars. Ruffo pleaded guilty and was sentenced to seventeen years in prison. Ruffo was released on ten-million dollars bail. On November 9th, 1998, authorities ordered him to report to prison in Fairton, New Jersey. Ruffo never did. Later that day, Ruffo’s rental car was found at JFK airport. Authorities had believe John Ruffo had escaped American jurisdiction, however Ruffo was last seen April 3, 2001, in Duncan, Oklahoma where he attempted bank fraud with two local banks. This time the scam involved $250,000,000.00 incoming wire transfers from Nigeria.

Joyce Holms Writer
Joyce Holms left school at the age of sixteen with nothing but a love of words and some credit for having published the school magazine. Now she is known for her creative use of language and quotes from her books are to be included in the new edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. She has worked in a variety of jobs, from fashion model to hotel owner, and ultimately as a private detective in Edinburgh, Scotland.
She began her professional career by writing short stories for women’s magazines and the BBC. These were followed by both historical and contemporary romances. However, since working in the detective agency Holms has achieved success as a crime writer. Currently living between Edinburgh and the South of France, she is now working on the tenth in her Fizz and Buchanan series.
One of the two eponymous characters in her crime series, Fizz Fitzpatrick, undoubtedly grew out of the female protagonists in her earlier romantic works where Miss McIntosh and Miss Frazer are confident and capable women. The Masquerade historical romances are set during and shortly after the Jacobite rebellion of 1745. The last in that series, set during the Peninsular Wars of the 18th. Century languishes unpublished, rejected on the basis that it was “more of romp than a romance’’ These early works set the tone for Holms’s crime novels where wit, humour and very capable female protagonists are key notes.
The Fizz and Buchanan series is set mainly in Edinburgh, a douche gentle Edinburgh and not the dark and bleak city of Ian Rankin’s Rebus novels. To quote Rankin “While Edinburgh probably isn’t as rough tough and gangster strewn as I represent it in the Rebus novels, it almost certainly is as quirkily humorous as Joyce Holms shows it to be”.
Fizz’s associate in the series, Tam Buchanan, personifies the civilised side of the city. A 30 year old lawyer, Buchanan’s life seems predictable and terminally uneventful until Fizz "like a Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse" inveigles her way into his law practice and his life.
The novels, strong in plot, characterisation, wit and sense of place, although set mainly in Edinburgh, take the reader all over Scotland from Berwick-upon-Tweed to Achiltibuie in the North West Highlands. Holms’s love of the Scottish Highlands and empathy with it’s culture shows in these books as it did in her early short stories in women’s magazines and for the BBC. End.

p-Chlorophenylalanine is known non-generically as Fenclonine. It reduces serotonin levels by inhibiting (irreversible inhibition) an enzyme involved in the synthesis of serotonin. (tryptophan hydroxylase)
Source: http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1185998
p-Chlorophenylalanine is an Analog of phenylalanine. p-Chlorophenylalanine inhibited the growth of, and was toxic to neuroblastoma cells in animal models. (mice)
Source: http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/166/3911/1433
The effect of p-chlorophenylalanine is potentiated by pargyline. p-Chlorophenylalanine depletes brain serotonin and induces longlasting sexual excitation in male rats. Administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan to rats treated with p-chlorophenylalanine plus pargyline blocks the sexual excitation. (Increased levels of 5-HTP may act to partially offset the action of p-Chlorophenylalanine; though a logical conclusion, this was not stated explicitly in the reference and so may be unsuitable for Wikipedia, as it constitutes original research/speculation)

Nottebohm case
The Nottebohm case standed in front of the International Court of Justice in 1953. The Applicant was Lichtenstein and the Respondent was Guatemala.
The case in dispute regarded the granting of the Lichtenstein nationality to Mr. Nottebohm. The ICJ decided that Mr. Nottebohm could not claim his being a Lichtenstein national, unless there had been a solid connection between him and the State of Lichtenstein.
This particular decision of the ICJ is usually cited as the case-law solving the problem of effective nationality of persons who are nationals of more than one states.
