The Nine Toobin
A Just Books' Event at Arcadia Cafe
20 Arcadia Road, Old Greenwich, CT
Free and Open to the Public; Reservations Recommended - 203-637-0707

Jeffrey Toobin, author and legal news analyst, will visit to sign copies of The Nine: inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court (Anchor Books,$15.95). Toobin is probably one of the most recognized and highly-regarded legal analysts today. A staff-writer at the New Yorker since 1993 and Senior Legal Analyst for CNN, Toobin has been a welcome asset, helping Americans decipher legal actions and events in this country for over two decades. The Nine, his most recent book which takes a look into the chambers of the Supreme Court, spent over four months on the New York Times Best-seller List, and the book was named one of the ten best books of the year by many publications including New York Times, Time, Newsweek, and The Economist. Toobin has written three other highly successful books, one on the controversial election of 2000, one on the OJ Simpson case and one on the sex scandal involving President Clinton. Toobin received his bachelor's degree at Harvard College and his law degree at Harvard University where he served on the Law Review. Before becoming a news analyst, Toobin worked as an Assistant US Attorney in Brooklyn. He currently lives in Manhattan.

TOY MONSTER: THE BIG,
BAD WORLD OF MATTEL

Toy Monster
Just Books
28 Arcadia Road, Old Greenwich, CT
Free and Open to the Public


Jerry Oppenheimer, best known for biographies like "Just Desserts" (about Martha Stewart) or "State of a Union" (Bill and Hillary Clinton's marriage), has now trained his sights on the world's biggest toy company, Mattel, in his new book Toy Monster: The Big, Bad World of Mattel (Wiley, $24.95). Oppenheimer exposes Mattel's egos, scandals and flawed products. In this toyland, nothing is cute or cuddly. Oppenheimer takes a tour of Mattel's seamier side, highlighting its corporate practices and interesting cast in this scathing portrait published to coincide with Barbie's 50th anniversary. Fast-paced and engaging, this exposé will absorb readers until the last page and will forever change the way they think about the giant toy company.

04/27/09 READER SUBMITTED COMMENTS: Your Blog's bad spelling

Congratulations on your success.

If you are going to constantly made snide remarks about Greenwich Time, you should at least adhere to their standards of spelling, which you will no doubt agree is a very low bar to clear.

Please use "it's" as a contraction for "it is" or "it has" only. "Its" is the possessive, meaning "belonging to it."

This rule is so simple to apply that you will never get it wrong again.

For example, just today:

Once Again The Greenwich Time's Print Circulation Has Declined, But The Web Traffic At The Greenwich Time Has Soar So Much That The Newspaper Has Once Again Achived [no - Achieved ] Double Didgit [no - digit] Growth In It's [sic - belonging to it] Combined Circulation.

COMMENT:

Dear Michael,



You are 100% Correct.



The spelling problem really detracts from the blog.



Often times when Greenwich Roundup, brings up an issue that is controversial or that many in power would like to sweep under the rug, the main response is that you misspelled this or that.



It is not that your argument is wrong, because of x, y and z.



You see Greenwich Roundup was born blind in his right eye and the left eye is crossed with less than normal vision.



I am told that my right eye had a damaged right eye had no pupil, because of cataracts.



Everyone was shocked, because they said cataracts is an old person's disease.



Later, the blind right eye had to be removed, because it got glaucoma and there was a fear that it was moving to the crossed left eye. I glass eye was put in the right eye, but the eyelid tends to droop, because especially if I am tired.



Because of having one eye, I have no depth perception or peripheral vision.



While out in about Greenwich I am able to hide the low vision problem in the left eye, because I know my surroundings very well.



However, If I am in a very stressful or strange place I can have a slight bit of difficulty.



Greenwich Roundup wishes that he had a volunteer copy editor.



He really does go over the posts four five and sometimes six times.



There is a blogger in Port Chester named Gino who has a muscular problem and types out an blog with his head that is error free and flawless. I am not sure if he has someone t help him edit the blog.
Michael, I tell you this background information only because I want you to understand the situation.
I no way do I want your pity.
In fact the quickest way to experience the raw and ravaging fury of Greenwich Roundup is to discount him or pity him, because of his vision problem.
Greenwich Roundup or his family has never accepted, social services, food stamps or any other government assistance, because Greenwich Roundup is a very proud man.
However, for the last few years Greenwich Roundup has taken advantage of the subsidised Outpatient clinic at Greenwich Hospital.
In middle school School administrators had tried to prevent Greenwich Roundup from taking physical education with the other boys. They were afraid of the liability of having Greenwich Roundup nixing it up and getting hurt.
They wanted to pair him up with another low vision boy from another school and let us play non-contact sports like rolling a ball on the floor.
Eventually the school saw things Greenwich Roundups way and quit interfering in his education and let him engage in physical education to the best of his ability.
Greenwich Roundup might have been the last picked or had been the "strikeout king", but he was right at home plate taking his shots.
Sometimes Greenwich Roundup connected. Nothing was more beautiful when a ball flew over outfielder's heads because they had moved into the infield, because they underestimated the one eyed slugger who just went from "strikeout king" to "RBI KING".
Greenwich Roundup's poor excuse of a father ended up leaving the family home before he turned seven and Greenwich Roundup's mother was a bar maid that worked two shifts to support him and his little sister.
Greenwich Roundup always managed to find work after school and during the summer to do his part in helping support his family. From the fifth grade Greenwich Roundup delivered newspapers, mowed lawns, cleaned dog cages, cleaned golf carts, washed dishes, bused tables,unloaded trucks and even hauled hay in the summer, etc., etc., etc....
The last year of Greenwich Roundup's middle school education his mother was able to get a chance at a home through a rent with an option to buy deal. The deal worked this way. My mother and I had to pay double rent for four years. One rent payment was for the rent and the other rent payment was saved for the down payment. At the end there was a huge balloon payment that needed a loan.
If we screwed up just one time my mother and I would lose all the additional rent payments we had made and could be evicted from our home. This deal made Bill Clinton's Whitewater deals look the deals of the century.
I dropped out of 9th grade and started working full time year around.
Eventually my high school principal who I admired a great deal came to the hardware store I was working in and threatened the owner. Then he took me to the back of the store and told me that I was throwing my life away.
I had to tell My principal that I was truly touched and sincerely appreciate his genuine concern, but if I had too I could make him legally throw me out of the high school. I then begged him not to go down that route, because I did not want to dishonor a principal I admired so much.
My principal left and told my boss that he didn't have a problem with me working in the store if my boss didn't have a problem with it. However, my boss got scared and let me go. This was somewhat devastating, because Jimmy Cater was president and jobs were kind of scarce, but I quickly found another job.
Later I Got a GED, went to a community college, then transferred to a state school and then transferred to the Rose Hill Campus of Fordham University. I still remember and cherish the beautiful letter that Sister Belinda at Holy Rosary in Port Chester on my behalf even though I was not Catholic.
Greenwich Roundup has been self employed in a contracting business for a while now, because he got tired of his appearance preventing him from advancing at an organization. There just aren't that many crossed eyed leaders in America. In fact, Greenwich Roundup has vowed never to work as a wage slave again and will only work on a contractual basis now.
Greenwich Roundup has always given back to the community to help those less fortunate than him. He has been in Kiwanis, rotary and in the Elks club. He has volunteered weekly and worked at Grace Churches homeless and feeding programs.
He has served as an election official in the Town Of Rye and the Town of Greenwich and currently serves on the Greenwich Representative Town Meeting. When I turned in my petitions in the last election a person working in the town told me that that was the most RTM signatures she had ever seen.
Greenwich Roundup however, is considering quitting the RTM, because it conflicts with reporting on this blog.
Greenwich Roundup has been cutting back on his volunteering and started getting more involved at Harvest Time Church up on King Street since I got saved about nine months ago. I volunteer there at the coffee bar for all three services and the church hands out free things like children's clothes during these hard economic times at the coffee bar. I also try and help out at Harvest Time Church one or two additional days at the church.
This Friday there is a missions dinner and conference that highlight all of the many projects the church is doing. This wonderful church spends over 25% of it's donations helping the poor and less fortunate and I am so proud to be a member there.
The only thing I don't like is that church members want me to remove this huge chip off my shoulder.
Harvest Time Church has me praying that Greenwich Police Chief David Ridberg and his family is kept safe as he performs his duties for the town. Even though I think he is doing a poor job as the Greenwich Chief Of Police.
Greenwich Roundup has a wonderful and loving wife and two sons who are continuing their education. The youngest son is a Greenwich High School grad who just returned from Iraq with a Brose Star and has just started a veterans club at Norwalk Community College.
Michael, I hope this information can let you look past the spelling errors in this blog and see the ideas and the person behind the blog.
sincerely,
Greenwich Roundup

"Some people say i don't speak right, but yet I know what i am talking about."- from the mid-'70s Funk song from War, called "Why Can't We Be Friends?"
WHY WAR - Why Can't We Be Friends?




Sorry To Say, It's not that simple. Sure it would be nice to just end worldwide violence but sometimes war just can't be avoided. I don't think a proposal of friendship would have stopped Ghengis Khan from eradicating the Tatars.

But maybe It's education. No education makes ignorant people. Ignorant people like Greenwich Roundup ended up voting for George Bush two times. Oh, God was Greenwich Roundup a fool for supporting that guy for such a long time. How could Greenwich Roundup have been so blind.

Maybe it is also abbot educating ignorant people who believe that doing terrorist attacks will make you go to heaven...

04/28/09 Who Is The Richest Man In Greenwich



New York Post

IN his new book, "The Richest Man in Town," Randall Jones says that Carl Icahn is the wealthiest guy in New York, Sam Zell is tops in Chicago, and Kirk Kerkorian rules LA.
Jones also claims Hungarian immigrant Thomas Peterffy, who made $11 billion through his Interactive Brokers, is twice as rich as his much more publicized Greenwich, Conn., neighbor, hedge-fund honcho Steve Cohen, who's worth a mere $6 billion. Sheldon Adelson, "the undisputed king of Las Vegas," was once worth $28 billion before shares in his Sands casinos imploded.

04/28/09 Clueless Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Doesn't Even Realize That He Works At The Fastest Growing Newspaper In America !!!

The Greenwich Time Grows 30% In The Last Six Months Thanks To Greenwich Roundup

The Greenwich Time Is Now The Fastest Growing Newspaper In America !!!!!

Hearst Newspaper's Danbury Times-News And Bridgeport Connecticut Post Languish As Greenwich Roundup Articles, Links And Web Traffic Send The Greenwich Time To Number One In America

Once Again The Greenwich Time's Print Circulation Has Declined, But The Web Traffic At The Greenwich Time Has Soar So Much That The Newspaper Has Once Again Achived Double Didgit Growth In It's Combined Circulation.

The Greenwich Time had the largest percentage gain in print and online audience among United States newspapers in the six months ending March 2009, compared to the same period in 2008, according to a national study done by the Audit Bureau of Circulation.

The study results were printed Monday in Editor & Publisher, America’s oldest journal covering the newspaper industry.

According to the report, The Greenwich Time
was the fastest growing newspaper in America.

The Greenwich Time had the biggest gain in audience when taking print and online readership into account. The paper was ranked by net combined audience (past seven days in print and 30 days online), according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations in joint effort with Scarborough Research and the Newspaper Association of America. The data is for the six months ending March 2009 compared to the same period in March 2008.

The Birmingham (Ala.) News and the Times-Picayune of New Orleans came in second and third.

Year after year the Birmingham (Ala.) News and the Times-Picayune of New Orleans have experienced double digit growth as the newspapers have regained the readers lost after Hurricane Katrina destroyed the area.

GREENWICH (CONN.) TIME -- 111,824 -- 30.74%

THE BIRMINGHAM (ALA.) NEWS -- 781,047 -- 11.85%

THE TIMES-PICAYUNE, NEW ORLEANS -- 820,374 -- 11.72%

This ranking – this ranking showing the Greenwich Time to be the fastest growing newspaper for total audience in the nation is due primarily, because Greenwich Roundup and google related searches have sent massive amounts of web traffic to the newspaper that has went through five editors in less than a year.

It is so strange that the money losing Greenwich Time is the third fastest growing newspaper in America and the morons like Bruce Hunter probably don't even know it.

Nor can the befuddled Bruce Hunter tell Hearst Newspaper President Steven Swartz or the new Greenwich Time Editor Bruce McCumber why the Greenwich Time is the third fastest Growing Newspaper in America.

Maybe It Is Because
When You Google "Bruce Hunter" Greenwich You Get 1,940 results with Greenwich Roundup coming in number 3 and number 4.

These numbers are very simular to the negitive numbers that Joe Pisani was posting. That Is Until They Fired Him Just Over A Year Ago.
PLEASE SEE:

Joe Pisani's Greenwich Time and all of these great newspapers had been declining for years.
All of these great newspapers are still declining,and one again were in decline for the six months ending March 2009, according to ABC. The percent change compares daily circulation for the same period ending in March 2008.
Yetthe previously declining the money losing Greenwich Time grew at a double digit rates over the past 12 months
By Why?
Maybe it wasn'tall of the reader intrest and traffic from Greenwich Roundup?
Maybe It was because the Greenwich Time got a new editor about evry 12 Weeks or so.
Maybe the Greenwich time is the fasted growing newspaper in America, becuse it fires a bunch of employese every 90 to 120 days.

PLEASE SEE:


You would think that Bruce Hunter would send a thank you note to Greenwich Roundup, but no the idiotic Greenwich Time Managing Editor tried to make Greenwich Roundup stop writing about him and the newspaper.

The thin skinned managing editor wasted Hearst corporation assets in an effort to silence a critic.......

Disgraced And Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Surrenders

Hearst Corporate Lawyer Ravi Sitwalla Called Greenwich Roundup Today And Was Very Professional And Pleasant.

Ravi Listened To Greenwich Roundup Concerns And We Both Agreed To Come To A Mutually Acceptable Solution To Thin Skinned Bruce Hunters Complaints About Greenwich Roundup.

Unfortunately, Greenwich Roundups Cell Phone Was In A Dead Zone In The Greenwich Back Country And Ravi Had To Call Multiple Times As We DiscussedA Resolution To The Problem Bruce Hunter Caused Hearst Newspapers.

Ravi And I Agreeded That.....

Greenwich Time Publisher John "I Can't Pick A Winning Team" Dunster And Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Both Have Their Panties In A Bunch.

Greenwich Roundup Spoke On The Phone Twice With Hearst Newspaper Editor Ravi Sitwalla Today To Follow Up On An Email Or Phone Call. Mr. Sitwalla Confirmed That We Had An Understanding And That Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Would Send An Email With Specific Links To Posts That He Thought Might Violate Hearst Newspaper Copyrights.
Hearst Corporate Lawyer Ravi Sitwalla Said He Wanted To Send A Second Email "Clarifying Some Issues".

When Asked About This He Said That Greenwich Time Is Still Upset At The Continued Posts In Greenwich Roundup About The Management Of The Paper.


SMACKDOWN !!!!!

Freedom Of Speech Lives!!!!!

It Looks Like The Vain And Pompus Greenwich Managing Editor

Bruce Hunter's Plan To Intimidate A Critic Backfired Horribly.

FOR THE RECORD: TO DATE BRUCE HUNTER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO PRODUCE ONE POST THAT VIOLATED A GREENWICH TIME COPYRIGHT.

Would Someone Please Wipe That Egg Off Hunter's Face

How Much Longer Is Greenwich Time Publisher

John "I Can't Pick A Winning Team" Dunster

Going To Keep Bruce Hunter Around?

I received your voice message. Our primary goal in reaching out to you was to establish an understanding going forward, and I believe that has been accomplished. In terms of existing posts on your blog, while we reserve the right to notify you of posts that we find objectionable, given the large volume of posts, we have not assembled a list of such posts as of now. To the extent that we do provide you a historical list of infringing posts, we will provide you with a reasonable amount of time to review and edit them. In any event, I consider this matter resolved for the time being, and will be in touch with you in the future should we have concerns over future posts or if we have compiled a list of prior infringing posts.

Now, More On Greenwich Resident Walter "Feeder Fund" Noel .....

Norwalk Advocate
By David Glovin
Fairfield Greenwich Group, the hedge fund that steered $7 billion to Bernard Madoff, faces new claims of fraud by investors who previously alleged negligence against co-founders Walter Noel, Jeffrey Tucker and Andres Piedrahita.

The class action suit, first filed in January in Manhattan federal court, was amended April 24 to include claims that the three co-founders and the firm acted so recklessly in placing client money with Bernard L.
