It took 90 minutes for Daily News to 'steal' the Empire State Building

From the Daily News: "In one of the biggest heists in American history, the Daily News "stole" the $2 billion Empire State Building. And it wasn't that hard. The News swiped the 102-story Art Deco skyscraper by drawing up a batch of bogus documents, making a fake notary stamp and filing paperwork with the city to transfer the deed to the property. Some of the information was laughable: Original "King Kong" star Fay Wray is listed as a witness and the notary shared a name with bank robber Willie Sutton. The massive ripoff illustrates a gaping loophole in the city's system for recording deeds, mortgages and other transactions. The loophole: The system - run by the office of the city register - doesn't require clerks to verify the information." - Mark Trapp via Bookmarklet

“Should Costco Accept Food Stamps? via NYTimes http://tinyurl.com/5ofrqa”

Well, they only accept AMEX - I don't understand their policies. - Mona N. via IM

Seems silly to have to pay 40 bucks to get in the door, then use foodstamps. - Josh Haley

it's definitely more bang for your buck, but the only problem is every time i go there, i spend like 300 bucks on 10 items. it's a little crazy.. but yeah, they should accept food stamps--food is food and those stamps are money, so it should be a no-brainer - Melissa Maskevich

The NYTimes argues: " 1. They did not think they would qualify based on the federal government requirements. 2. It was too expensive to adapt their equipment to accept food stamps. 3. With their annual fee/bulk-purchase model, people on food stamps probably could not shop there anyway." - Mona N.

@Mona they have a contract signed with AMEX to only accept cash, check, and AMEX. I think in return AMEX gives them lower txn processing fees. - Roshan Vyas

The Costco in Seattle accepts Mastercard/Visa (and possibly others?) if you use it as debit. For credit, they only do AMEX, though. - Rochelle

yeah, i use my visa there - Melissa Maskevich

It's possible that the $40 fee might still be worth it for those on foodstamps. They can only stretch so far, anyway. I think the option should be there unless there are major consequences to Costco for doing so. - ♫ Rahsheen ™ ★

any program like food stamps has rules, some very arbitary, like you can use them for cake but not decorated cake - Robert Hafer

Hmmm wouldn't that be up to both the consumer and corporation to work out, Robert? - Mona N.

Do the math. Costco is not a very good deal across the board. It's a pretty big sham. Coupons at kroger saves us close to 50%. But hey, it's your money/foodtsamps - Josh Haley

It depends on the user, imho. Just like ping.fm and Twitter. ;) - Mona N. via IM

Robert, it's not arbitrary. You cannot buy any prepared foods with food stamps. That includes a premade cake. You can buy non-prepared foods including boxed cake mix or ingredients to make a cake. The USDA Food Stamp Act explains this in great detail. - Rochelle

@Josh: actually, it's partly MY MONEY if you're using food stamps...so please stick to the necessary items and let those who can afford to have someone else prepare their cakes eat the prepared cakes. - Craig Eddy

Craig, thank you, yes. I was so focused on the idea of Costco not being a deal that I forgot thet WE pay for foodstamps. Which makes me think that it would be very lame if foodstamps were allowed to pay for costco membership fees. - Josh Haley

Josh, there's a difference between accepting foodstamps for payment with regards to food and accepting foodstams for payment with regards to the membership fee. I'm not seeing where anyone suggested people be able to pay for the membership fees, new tires, flat screen TVs, or anything else with food stamps. Only that they be able to purchase approved food items with food stamps. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)

While I'm not opposed to Costco taking food stamps for food items but I would assume that a person on food stamps might have better things to do with their discretionary cash then purchase a membership in Costco! - Paul

Yes, Tina. I said "if" :) - Josh Haley

It's what, $40 for the year, so about $0.75 a week for someone to possibly be able to save significantly on bread, milk, and formula? Even as a tax payer I can't justify griping about someone's choice to spend 75 cents a week on a membership... - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)

I think it actually makes sense for those on food stamps to attempt to use places like this. They can sacrifice $50 a year in their cash for saving $50-100 in public cash every two months on food and supplies. It just makes financial sense really. - xero

But it's NOT a good deal. The math isn't really there. - Josh Haley

All the numbers we've ever run show Costco way ahead for our typical food basket. The milk, eggs, and veggies alone are a huge savings. Plus coupons work at Costco plus they have cheap gas. - todd

Formula is covered by WIC and is completely free, but you can only "buy" it in your assigned store. And the baby's doctor must fill out a "prescription" for the exact brand & type of formula you are going to be receiving. What stores you allowed to choose from is based on what he puts on that paper and what is available at the stores on their list. - April Russo

Yaa, only if you own a car, since boxes of food are so huge. - imran

April - Another good reason to breastfeed, if possible. - Elizabeth

I didn't find any value being a Costco member, I don't think people on food stamps will either. - Bob

@Bob one word: MILK. The amazing discount you get at wholesale clubs on milk will usually save money far above the cost of membership, if you have people who drink milk at home. My ex and son could go through 3 gallons a week, so a 60c per gallon savings added up FAST. - Ladybug Heather

No. - Michael Forian

As a Costco shopper, I find huge savings on butter, eggs, produce, and unprocessed meat (whole chickens, etc.) I haven't done all the math, but I'm glad the government is at least looking into it. I should add, we do some pretty serious couponing at Kroger and Albertsons. - ha3rvey

Two recent movies that were even worse than Hancock: The Happening and 88 Minutes. At any given time, the number of bad new movies out there greatly exceeds the number of good new movies. Sometimes you wonder how many of these clunkers get made. Sometimes I wonder why I am dumb enough to watch them. - Sean McBride

I liked Hancock but not because of its original and masterly woven story or its over sophistication - none of which is the case for this movie- but because of a nice interplay between Smith and Theron - and of course the special effects and the music!! - Hayk

@Shey you probably don't need cable for HDTV. Most places get 2 - 3 decent broadcast HD channels, just get yourself a good digital tv antenna. I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/Terk-Amp... I have to say, it's fantastic for digital broadcasts. Analog TV, not so much. - Phil Glockner

@Phil @Derrick I want to watch football in HD!!! Don't I need to just buy a HD box? - Shey

@Shey broadcast football games with a modern flat panel TV just need the digital tv antenna (above), no converter box needed. If you get cable TV, be sure to specify you want a high-def model (DVR or no) and ask about their HD sports package. It usually costs extra. As an alternative, you could go with Dish network, they have an all-HD package that looks very tempting. - Phil Glockner

I'm still not entirely sure who Miley Cyrus even is. - Akiva Moskovitz

The Hannah Montana show on Disney is kinda cute. Not that I would choose to watch it, but it's not terrible. Suite Life of Zack and Cody - THAT show is terrible! - Ladybug Heather

That's HANNA MONTANA to you sir!!! ;-) - Amani

The secret office lover! I see... - orionstarr

Nah, not a secret office lover. Just a really good friend that used to work in my department, and now works in another. It was my wife who started calling him my "office spouse." LOL I guess, like an BFF co-worker. *shrug* - g. warbucks

My husband and I have used that term on each other too for office friends. lol :) - Carmen

Are office spouses like "kitchen wives"? I had two of those in culinary school. - ha3rvey

I've never heard of "kitchen wives," but it sounds like the same concept. :) - g. warbucks
