| I am a real estate investor (wholesaler, for now) in the Baltimore, MD area and I was wondering if there were other RE investors out there in FRland.

However, I would like to talk to other RE investors who... |

Should the Chinese begin to sell some of their holdings, interest rates in the U.S. could increase dramatically. While the Obama administration apparently... |

| A federal judge in San Francisco has sided with Hollywood studios and ruled against RealNetworks DVD-copying software saying RealDVD allows users to engage in copyright infringement. U.S. District Court Marilyn Patel, in an order issued late Aug. 11, wrote that RealDVD circumvents a technological measure that effectively controls access to or copying of the studios copyrighted content on DVDs. Patels order effectively bars RealNetworks from selling RealDVD in any form, including its Facet DVD player that can create and store DVD copies. Dan Glickman, chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America, said he was very pleased by... |
