British Columbia Authorities Freeze Bank Account, WSJ Says Vancouver, Dec. 29 (Bloomberg) -- The British Columbia Securities Commission froze a Bank of Montreal account because of concerns it's connected to alleged illegal stock-trading activities in the U.S. and Canada, the Wall Street Journal reported. The account is owned by Exchange Bank & Trust, one of a group of ``brass-plate'' banks that exist mainly on paper and do business through other established banks, the paper said. Law enforcement officials say ``brass-plate'' banks can play a significant role in securities fraud, though many are legitimate. The U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission found the account as part of a lawsuit it filed against stock-picker Stephen Sayre, accusing him of making $1.4 million by manipulating the stock of a small Internet company, the paper said. Exchange Bank's founder, Terry Neal, told the paper hundreds of wealthy individuals have used his bank as a legitimate way to reduce taxes and protect assets. Sayre, in a recent phone call from an undisclosed location, denied wrongdoing and says he's working to clear up the charges. A Bank of Montreal spokesman declined comment.

Tony Elgindy breaks Mr. P$nk's heart. Mr. P$nk retreated some months ago to the supposed safety and freedom of a private sight run by His old friend Tony. Mr. P$nk stuck by Tony through thick and thin. Today, however was a sad day when Mr. P$nk was actually censored by Tony simply because He demanded the simple respect of one of the other members of that club. So for the next 2 weeks, Mr. P$nk will hold court once again on His sacred home turf and share His wisdom with one and all. In fact, He, in His infinite wisdom, has gifted the masses with 3 excellent new ideas. Message 15097312 Mr. P$nk
