Jay-Z Chats With Older Lady, 'Ellen,' On The Subway En Route To Barclays Center Show (VIDEO) (Huffington post)
For all the swagger that pours from his lyrics, Jay-Z sure comes across as a
nice guy when he rides the subway.
In a brief segment excerpted from "Life + Times," a 24-minute documentary
about the artist's involvement in building the Barclays Center, Jay-Z rides
the subway to his eighth and final show at the arena.
The fact that Jay-Z opted for the R train over his Maybach may be shocking in
itself, but it gets better: While on the train, he meets "Ellen," a charming
older woman who chats with the superstar for a bit. During the encounter, he
explains what he does for a living. "I make music," he says. Apparently
surprised by Jay's choice of transportation, Ellen soon lets loose those four
words we all secretly crave from a parental figure: "I'm proud of you."

Fiscal Cliff: Obama Will Return To Washington From Hawaii To Work On Deal (Huffington post)
The New York Times reports that President Obama will cut short his Christmas
vacation in Hawaii to return to Washington in hopes of securing a deal on the
fiscal cliff. The president, who spent the holiday with his family, may arrive
in the capital as early as Wednesday.
On Friday, before leaving for Hawaii, Obama expressed optimism that a deal
could still be struck. But expectations for a large-scale deal have faded
considerably over the past week. Democrats and Republicans remain far apart on
tax and spending issues, and House speaker John Boehner demonstrated tenuous
control of his own party when a vote for his "Plan B" measure was
unceremoniously shelved. Many believe that a small-scale temporary fix is now
the most realistic solution.

Business is blooming for Norfolk company (hamptonroads)
NORFOLK Other than a bar called Greenies across the street and the Chesapeake
Bay behind it, there wasn't much "green" around First View Street in Ocean
View before Cheryl Hahn set up shop. Now, though, a wind turbine rises against
the sky at her CozyPure store, and solar panels blanket the building's front
and roof.

Insider trading ahead of Hyundai-Kia MPG debacle suspected (Autoblog)
Filed under: Government/Legal, Hyundai, Kia, Earnings/Financials
_Reuters_ is reporting that large-scale insider trading may be at the heart of
some particularly fishy stock-selling behavior, just prior to the original
announcement about the Hyundai-Kia fuel economy ratings debacle.
On November 1st, Hyundai-Kia shares traded roughly 2.2 million times (the
single highest-volume day of the year), and the stock price fell by about four
percent. For reference, a standard daily trading volume for the stock in 2012
saw about 600k shares trading hands. On November 2nd, the company made public
the bad news about the dropping fuel economy ratings for many of its models.
In other words: No one outside of the company (and only a smallish group
inside the company, we'd imagine) should have known anything about the
impending bad news as of the first day of November. After the announcement,
the stock price tanked, as you'd expect, and trading volume was way down as
well.
Experts seem fully aware that the whole thing reeks of leaked information and
subsequent insider trading. If chicanery on this sort of scale seems wacky to
you, you'd be inline with the experts who report to _Reuters_ that the level
of trading ...

Staten Island's Hurricane Sandy Damage Sheds Light On Complicated Political Battle (Huffington post)
On the southern shore of Staten Island, the remains of a street called Kissam
Avenue stretch across the marshland, a trail of ruins leading to the sea. When
Pedro Correa first drove down the street six years ago with his wife, their
young son and a real estate agent, he was amazed that a street so secluded and
serene still existed in a city of eight million people. It was early spring,
and a cool, salty breeze was blowing in from the ocean, rustling the 6-foot-
tall curtains of grass that lined both sides of the road. The house the
Correas had come to see was about 50 feet from the beach, and it was a wreck
-- it had been ordered in parts from a Sears catalog in the 1950s -- but
Correa was a practiced carpenter and he allowed himself to fantasize about
"the possibilities." He’d never imagined that his corrections officer salary
could afford him a third of an acre, a deck with ocean views and an in-ground
pool.
It wasn't until Correa began paying off the $375,000 mortgage on the house
that his neighbor Charlie, a retired ferry captain, told ...
