...would prosecutors be so worried about Madoff shipping jewelry to relatives? There are several reasons. One could be because he is hiding assets, so he can flee and live off them. Even though the million dollars or so in jewelry is a drop in the bucket compared to what he defrauded victims of, it is enough money to live off when you are on the lam. The second reason would be that he could be shipping assets around to avoid paying restitution later. Third, the things we've just talked about show that he is someone who would disobey court...
...Indeed, Blair's loyalty to Bush seems unshakable. Everyone has had a pal who is more trouble than he's worth; the kid who gets you into scrapes only to dematerialize just when the teacher catches you suspending a bucket of water over the classroom door; the roommate who loses keys, drinks the last of the milk and never washes the dishes.

...With BC All-American guard Tyrese Rice running the offense, Lin stripped him of the ball and broke away for a layup. Senior guard Drew Housman faked and blew by Rice for another layup on the next possession. After a bucket from captain Andrew Pusar and a defensive stop on the other end, Lin drilled a three to cap the Crimson’s quick 9-4 run to go up 42-31. Aided by the loud crowd behind it, BC responded in force, and trailed just 49-43 with 11:42 left. But that was as close...
