    Well, at least the writer of this news report took meticulous care to abide by the journalistic standards of neutral and unbiased reporting. :D

    I gots rights to good medical care & decent housing!

    Hard core Libertarian or not, I actually find it hard to come up with strong logical arguments <b>against</b> transforming the current U.S. health system into a socialist system. :eek: This assumes that all patients would still have the option of paying out of pocket for private health...

    Autosurf industry

    I recommended this blog back in the dearly departed, unfairly deleted thread. While it's true that I want absolutely no part of the ponzi game, this blog writer does play hyip's. He's into what we druggies call- "harm reduction". Anyways, this guy is good. He strongly recommended bailing...

    Autosurf industry

    Like I was saying... too sleazy for me. "StormPay is commonly used by Autosurfing websites, Paid To Read sites and HYIPs. On January 31, 2006, StormPay declared that it would not allow itself to be used on any site which also offered another payment solution, such as Paypal or e-gold. The...

    I gots rights to good medical care & decent housing!

    JAGUARBONE, I think you're already an objectivist, whether you know it or not. In The Virtue Of Selfishness, by Ayn Rand, these exact points are laid out. From chapter 12. Man's Rights: "The concept of a 'right' pertains only to action- specifically, to freedom of action. It means...

    I gots rights to good medical care & decent housing!

    Some of you seem to assume that police protection is a legal right. Not so. Let's say there's an intruder inside your home, and he's already raping & beating your roomate. You report this to the police, but <b>they have absolutely no obligation to do anything but sit there and consume another...

    Israelis Credit TV for Pacifying Prisoners

    I happen to know a thing or two about Ketziot prison. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=1074359&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending Yet again, the media has made a blatant error: "In the year since the first TV set was installed in the Ketziot...

    POLL: Islam - vicious and wicked faith

    Dude, the troll isn't even <b>trying</b> to present any sort of logical counter-argument. Its only purpose here is to annoy people- ideally to the point of 'breaking' them, so that they exhibit a fierce emotional response to its provocations. Inducing a state of furious rage in its prey is...

    Chicago ET Home

    My car is at ABT right now. They'll be done installing $10,500 worth of audio equipment in a few days, and I'll let you guys know how that goes. Thanx to everyone who provided recommendations. Now I'd like just one more local referral. Does anyone know a good, competent E.N.T. specialist in...

    Is this possible- 1000% yearly returns on options?

    Carl, the 'strategy' you posted was clearly written by some big dreaming piker with no trading experience.

    POLL: Islam - vicious and wicked faith

    Summary: I can't refute the fact that 'peace' has an entirely different meaning in Islam vs. Western culture. After all, this is well documented in Islamic texts and widely confirmed via opinion polls. However, I <b>can</b> speak out in favor of ignorance and denial. These two states of mind...

    Odd Lots?

    <i>When you say 'marketable order' do you mean market order? I mostly use limit orders. </i> -----------> No, a marketable order is a limit order with essentially the same effect as a market order. For example, all six exchanges are showing 0.50 bid, 0.60 offer, and you then send an order to...

    Moscow museum to exhibit Mohammed cartoons

    OMG! I didn't know Russia was that bad. I've had a long standing desire to vacation in Moscow. Would you say that Russia is generally unsafe for tourists?

    Market share statistics: http://www.iseoptions.com/marketplace/statistics/volume_share.asp ISE has the best liquidity (for reasons unknown), but is <b>not</b> the 'best exchange'. ISE has a history of leading the charge to implement anti-trader policies- and to add insult to injury, also...

    Odd Lots?

    OK Luh, looks like you now understand what's going on. I didn't have to tell you twice. ISE & CBOE do the most volume. To see a daily market share by exchange breakdown: http://www.iseoptions.com/marketplace/statistics/volume_share.asp BTW, the sanitized term for 'kickbacks' is...

    Odd Lots?

    Well, there's your problem. All of your orders are being routed to whichever exchange pays IB the highest kickbacks. Probably PHLX or PSE. Most of the fills going off at your price (but not hitting your bid) are ISE and CBOE orders.

    Odd Lots?

    Are you routing directly to specific exchanges, or not?
