Anyone else find this kind of thing disturbing?

A glowing report on the former FBI director, Louis Freeh and his Freeh Group International. Pretty interesting profile actually, even if it does read a bit like a seven page press release.

Electronic Ephemera has a link to the Beta release of LOUIS - the Library Of Unified Information Sources. LOUIS offers free full text searches of federal documents, which are returned in an easily printable format and combines: congressional reports, hearings, bills and resolutions, the congressional record, the federal register, presidential documents and GAO Reports. For anyone who has used the myriad access points for these types of govt. docs this sounds like a welcome upgrade.

Check out LOUIS right here.

Welcome back folks. The Daily Caveat will be in mid-week and then I'll jet off again to visit the Louisiana branch of our NJ/LA martital union. I hope the holiday weekend treated everyone well. Dog boarded, cats in tow, we made our way out towards the Eastern shore and up to NJ for the weekend.

We also hit NYC for a quick brunch with friends and visited the the usual spots, including Rockefeller Center. I have to say the tree was pretty mediocre this year - it looked down right droopy. Swampy, even. Kind of Christmas on the bayou - which of course makes me feel right at home.

Now...to business..what'd we miss (I'll keep updating this over the course of the day, as time allows):

• Former FBI directory Louis Freeh is set to lend a hand at DaimlerChrysler, running their internal investigation into the recent bribery scandal. Siemans, DaimlerChrysler...what is it with the Germans this year?

• Accusations of faked documents arise in Apple options probe. (Say it ain't so, Steve).

• Nikko dumps execs implicated in falsified earnings report. Several asset managers have also cut ties to the firm.
  

• Biomet facing scrutiny on options backdating.

Just a few to get you started.
