question:
Rachel Maddow  Explains How Money Could Be Laundered in Russia
MSNBC anchor  Rachel Maddow  imagined how  she  would launder $10 million out of Russia if  she  were a criminal instead of a broadcaster.
“The first important thing to know about Deutsche Bank in this story  it’s up to its German neck in Russian money laundering ”  Maddow  noted.
“I’m a Russian crook and I grew up practicing judo with Vladimir Putin and he’s given me leave to steal stuff or strip the assets out of some formally state-run company ”  Maddow  said  explaining the character  she  would play in  her  role-playing. “I’m a Russian bad guy. I’ve got ill gotten gains.”
“I’ve got stolen money and I would like to enjoy my stolen money and so in order to do so  I have to secret those funds away somewhere where they won’t get noticed by law enforcement. Where they won’t get taxed. And where anybody who might prosecute me  or persecute me for the way I got this money  they won’t be able to find it and reclaim it and trace it back to me ”  Maddow  continued.
“If I want to get $10 million out of Russia  I want to convert it from Rubles into some other currency. To get it out without anybody noticing  it has to look like that money is leaving the country as some part of legitimate transaction ”  Maddow  noted. “That’s where Deutsche Bank comes in.”
“So you need to have something you’re going to buy for a lot of money. So you have somebody abroad go to the bank and say ‘I have this highlighter and the price of this highlighter I want to sell is $10 million.’ Miraculously  simultaneously at that same moment you pop up in Moscow with your $10 million in ill gotten Rubles and say hey  office  ‘do you know anybody selling something I might be able to buy for $10 million? I was thinking of investing in a highlighter. Do you know anybody selling one for $10 million?’  Maddow  explained  holding up a highlighter.
“I’m the dude in Russia  I hand $10 million in dirty Rubles into the Moscow office. They say you purchased a highlighter ”  Maddow  recapped. “Then over in their other office abroad in London or wherever  that bank’s office  they pay their client $10 million in euros or dollars or whatever and they  you know  collect the highlighter that’s just been sold. And that’s it  that’s how the money moves.”

question:
Even with a deadly car bombing and other mayhem marring the day -- the deadline for the American troop pullback under a Jan. 1 agreement -- Prime Minister Nouri Kamal al-Maliki seized on the occasion to position himself as a proud leader of a country independent at last  looking ahead to the next milestone of parliamentary elections in January.
 He made no mention of American troops in a nationally televised speech  even though nearly 130 000 remain in the country; most had already pulled back from Iraq's cities before Tuesday's deadline.
 In a national address  al-Maliki focused his praise on Iraqi troops and security forces for their role in fighting the insurgency. "The national united government succeeded in putting down the sectarian war that was threatening the unity and the sovereignty of Iraq " he said  as if the United States had played no role.
 President Barack Obama  who ran for office on a pledge to end the war  marked the occasion with minimal fanfare  declaring it "an important milestone" even as he warned of "difficult days ahead."
 "The Iraqi people are rightly treating this day as cause for celebration " he said.
 The withdrawal did not command its own presidential appearance -- his brief remarks were delivered at a ceremony honoring entrepreneurs -- a marked contrast with his predecessor  who rarely missed an opportunity to celebrate milestones in Iraq.
 Military experts anticipate more violence in the days ahead. Maliki's effort to capitalize on Iraq's latent anti-Americanism and to extol the abilities of his troops is a risky strategy. If it turns out that Iraqi troops cannot control the violence  al-Maliki will be vulnerable to criticism from rivals -- both if he has to ask the Americans to return but also if he fails to enforce security without them.
 Some American commanders have said they were taken aback by al-Malikial-Maliki's insistence on taking credit for all the security successes in Iraq  but they also see the importance of having him and Iraqi troops appear strong  especially in the face of multiple insurgent factions intent on destabilizing the government.
 Gen. Raymond T. Odierno brushed aside the dismissive tone of Iraqi leaders' public remarks about the Americans  saying that al-Maliki had personally thanked him on Monday night and again on Tuesday for the sacrifices American troops have made.

question:
Rick Pitino  admitted to having sexual relations with the wife of  his  teamâs equipment manager. Louisville brought  him  back. A former Cardinals staffer arranged for strippers and prostitutes to have sex with players and recruits in the teamâs dormitory.  Pitino  denied any knowledge of  it  and kept  his  job. Only when the feds got involved did the ax finally fall: Louisville fired the Hall of Fame coach last month after an FBI investigation found an executive from Adidas and others conspired to steer top recruits to Louisville via six-figure payments to their families  with  Pitino  allegedly being aware of the scheme.
ESPN commentator Dick Vitale  for one  thinks  Pitino  deserves yet another chance.
Auriemma  the Hall of Fame coach of the Connecticut womenâs team  told the âPardon My Takeâ podcast earlier this month that he would hire  Pitino  for his coaching staff if he had an opening.
 Pitino  was officially fired Oct. 16  so Auriemmaâs definition of time served is rather peculiar. In any case  more has come out about  Pitinoâs  alleged role in the scheme since the U.S. Justice Departmentâs initial announcement  which maintained that an AAU coach named Christian Dawkins called Pitino to ask him for help in securing a six-figure payment to the family of highly regarded recruit Brian Bowen. A new federal indictment against former Adidas executive Jim Gatto  released this week  alleges  Pitino  not only was aware of the scheme â as was previously thought â but agreed to participate in it.
âDawkins explained that while [ Pitino ] and the University of Louisville were recruiting [Bowen]  Dawkins asked [ Pitino ] to call James Gatto to request that [Adidas] provide the money requested by the family of [Bowen]  which [ Pitino ] agreed to do â the indictment reads.

After a career full of second chances  Rick Pitino should get one more Dick Vitale says
