- Gothamist is still trying to get to the bottom of the Law & Order episode that Mayor Bloomberg will be appearing in. Reader Matthew tried to help us out by noting a key paragraph in a Wall Street Journal article about that Martha Stewart thing: Just blocks from the courthouse, yellow police tape blocked off the crime scene of an armored-car robbery, a dead body and swarming investigators -- all part of the set of an upcoming episode of the television show "Law & Order," about the murder of an assistant district attorney. Jerry Orbach, who plays tough detective Lennie Briscoe on the show, was aware of the real-life courtroom drama unfolding nearby. "Sure, on the show we deal with crime that generally isn't corporate, but the devastation caused by things like Enron and Tyco does far more harm than some guy who chokes his neighbor for playing his radio too loud," he said. |

- Excerpt: "The discussion centers on recently proposed Treasury Regulations that will affect how life insurance policies are valued and IRS guidance that addresses perceived abusive transactions involving §412(i) plans. A §412(i) plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan that is funded by life insurance products. The IRS guidance designates certain transactions involving §412(i) as 'listed transactions.'"

- Excerpt: "There is a developing problem that I believe must be considered when negotiating the settlement language addressing future pension payments. If you use a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as the settlement tool in a State that employs Matured Full Benefit distribution methodology (non-participant's share of the pension is based on actual retirement income of the participant) and you represent the non-participant spouse, you will be facing this problem."
