| Why You Should Pay Attention To Pre-Fall 2013: McQueen, Givenchy, Dior Posted: 20 Jan 2013 11:07 PM PST By nature, pre-fall collections are smaller-scale, more commercial creatures. Often overlooked in the run up to fall/winter presentations, they bridge the hop between summer and fall and land in time for stores to sell them at full price while summer inventory is on sale. This isn't the moment Alexander McQueen would, say, unveil the armadillo boot, but don't let the practicality fool you—there's a lot to glean from the pre-fall season, such as the one we're in now. |

| Golfer Phil Mickelson May Call It Quits Due To Climbing Tax Rates Posted: 20 Jan 2013 09:42 PM PST Word is, Phil Mickelson is mad as hell about rising tax rates, and he's not going to take it anymore. What follows is a brief portion of an interview Mickelson gave earlier today after carding a final-round 66 at the Palmer Course at PGA West in La Quinta – which I assure you, is not associated with the La Quinta next door to your local Denny's – in which the golfer hinted that he is considering drastic career changes because of a combined tax rate nearing "62, 63 percent:" |

| Alleged Fraud At Caterpillar's Chinese Acquisition Puts Spotlight On U.S. Principals Posted: 20 Jan 2013 09:02 PM PST Investors in Caterpillar got a nasty surprise last Friday when the company revealed that it had uncovered massive fraud at a Chinese mining equipment firm that it bought last year. Caterpillar said it would write down $580 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, wiping out around half of its expected income. Its new Chinese subsidiary allegedly overstated its profit for years by claiming non-existent sales on inventory that couldn't be traced. This is an embarrassing setback for Caterpillar, which has expanded aggressively in China and competes with domestic heavy-machinery manufacturers like Zoomlion and Sany. In a statement, Caterpillar said it had found "deliberate, multi-year, coordinated accounting misconduct" at Zhengzhou Siwei Mechanical and Electrical Engineering ('Siwei'), the firm that it bought last year for $653 million. It said senior management at Siwei had been fired and replaced with a new team that was under direct control of Caterpillar's China division. "The actions carried out by these individuals are offensive and completely unacceptable. This conduct does not represent, in any way, shape or form, the way Caterpillar does business," Chairman and CEO Doug Oberhelman said in the statement. |
