    Proposed NFA Capital Requirement

    There is a link to that on FXCM's home page as well. While FXCM should be commended for disclosing those numbers in this day and age - although described as Unaudited and, strangely, as of January 31 - there is one interesting bit of data that their powerful, pervasive PR machine will...

    HA, women sues AAPL for $1M over $200 price cut....

    While I agree with most of your argument, the final settlement in the McDonald's coffee case was for "an undisclosed amount less then $600,000." Likely $200K - $300K or less for the attorneys, and that's before taxes. Not trivial, maybe, especially whatever share went to the now 82-year-old...

    funny story how I studied SCT

    Both statements are factually incorrect. You can now search for strings of any length on ET, including 3 (e.g., "SCT") and 2 (e.g., "TA"). No need to add * as long as you want the exact string, such as in this case.

    Although Pam isn't remotely my type, she is considered a hot chick by many. If you are a male pro poker player and a hot chick agrees to play strip poker with you... I've got news flash for you. She's really into you and wants you to win; or she is loose'n'easy (yeah, in a good old fashioned...

    Letterman humiliating Paris Hilton in Late Show

    You don't think that his persistent questions on her jail time and her tearful replies have been carefully scripted by seasoned pros and rehearsed with her in the pre-interview, as usual? The girl who starred in "One Night in Paris" and shows either her box or nips to the world accidentally...
