...more recent years, I used yet another method to conceal my fraud. I wired money between the United States and the United Kingdom to make it appear as though there were actual securities transactions executed on behalf of my investment advisory clients. Specifically, I had money transferred from the U.S. bank account of my investment advisory business to the London bank account of Madoff Securities International Ltd., a United Kingdom corporation that was an affiliate of my business in New York. Madoff Securities International Ltd. was principally engaged in proprietary trading and was a legitimate, honestly run and operated business...

...those monitoring Northern Ireland's security situation in recent times, this spate of attacks had a depressing sense of inevitability. Earlier this month, MI5 - the United Kingdom's intelligence service - raised the security threat posed by dissident republicans to "severe," meaning an attack was regarded as highly likely. Furthermore, the murder in Craigavon wasn't the first time dissidents have tried to kill police officers. An off-duty policeman was shot by the Real IRA in County Tyrone in November 2007, but survived. Security forces in Northern Ireland also say they have foiled major terrorist attacks by dissidents, including defusing...

...Despite their small size, lack of public support and relative invisibility over the past 10 years, there has been an upsurge in dissident activity in recent months. Only last week, MI5 - the United Kingdom's intelligence service - raised the security threat posed by dissident republicans to "severe," meaning an attack was regarded as highly likely. This followed a spate of planned attacks which were intercepted by police, including a car bomb left in a County Down town last month. An earlier MI5 report in January suggested that dissidents may broaden their terror campaigns and attempt attacks on large-scale events...

Evangelicals have not projected a united pro-life platform in Brazil, certainly not one as monolithic as the Catholic Church's. But at least one major sect, the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, has taken a stance that showcases its differences with its Catholic rival. The Universal Church's television channel TV Record recently aired spots featuring a woman declaring, "I decided who to marry. I decided to use the pill. With my vote I decided who'd be elected President. I decided to work so that I won't be discriminated against. Why can't I decide...
