ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS - In the Matter of James B. Kinney, CMA - Zibb.com
Aug 01, 2008 (SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RELEASE/ContentWorks via COMTEX) --
On July 31, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Public Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Rule 102(e) of the Commission's Rules of Practice, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against James B. Kinney, CMA, who was the Vice President of Finance for the Wireless business unit of Nortel Networks Corporation. The Order finds that on May 2, 2008, a final judgment was entered against Kinney, permanently enjoining him from future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act), Sections 10(b) and 13(b)(5) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), and Exchange Act Rules 10b-5 and 13b2-1, and from aiding and abetting future violations of Exchange Act Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) and Exchange Act Rules 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-13 in the civil action entitled SEC v. Frank A. Dunn, et al., Civil Action Number 07-CV-8851 (LAP), in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Kinney was also ordered in that final judgment to pay $52,000 in disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, $16,481 in prejudgment interest, and a $75,000 civil money penalty.
According to the Order, the Commission finds that the Commission's complaint alleged that, from the second half of 2002 through January 2003, Kinney determined that his business unit held tens of millions of dollars in excess reserves, and that he did not release those excess reserves as required under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), but instead used them for earnings management purposes. The complaint also alleged that, in early January 2003, during the 2002 year-end closing process, Kinney and other finance executives improperly established additional excess reserves in order to lower Nortel's consolidated earnings and bring it in line with internal and market expectations. As alleged, his efforts, in conjunction with those of other finance executives, helped erase Nortel's pro forma profit for the fourth quarter of 2002 and caused it to report a loss instead. The complaint also alleged that, in the first and second quarters of 2003, Kinney and other finance executives improperly released hundreds of millions of dollars in excess reserves as part of a company-wide effort to inflate consolidated earnings and pay bonuses. According to the complaint, these efforts turned Nortel's first quarter 2003 loss into a reported profit under U.S. GAAP, largely erased Nortel's second quarter loss and generated a pro forma profit in the second quarter.
Based on the above, the Order suspends Kinney from appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant, with a right to apply for reinstatement after five years from the date of the Order. Kinney consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings of the Order. (Rel. 34-58273; AAE Rel. 2855; File No. 3-13111)

"We're extremely proud of both series and congratulate all of our Emmy nominees.

Created and executive produced by Matthew Weiner in association with Weiner Bros., the series depicts the professional lives, social mores and sexual exploits of advertising executives on Madison Avenue circa 1960, when the industry was at its height of glamour, power and prestige. The setting is the Sterling Cooper agency, which sells everything from cigarettes to political candidates, and its protagonist, Don Draper (Jon Hamm), is a fast-rising creative director whose smooth exterior conceals any number of secrets. The ensemble cast also includes Elisabeth Moss, Vincent Kartheiser, January Jones, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, Rosemarie DeWitt, Talia Balsam, Robert Morse, Michael Gladis, Aaron Staton, Rich Sommer, Maggie Siff and Bryan Batt.
Currently in its fourth season, WEEDS continues to push the creative envelope with its daring portrayal of the complicated life of a suburban pot-dealing mom, played by Mary-Louise Parker. Produced by Lionsgate in association with Tilted Productions, the series was created and is executive produced by Jenji Kohan and also stars Elizabeth Perkins, Hunter Parrish, Alexander Gould, Allie Grant, Kevin Nealon and Justin Kirk, with special guest star Albert Brooks.

For coffee lovers in the Chicagoland area, Dunn Bros Coffee is bringing a new flavor to the coffee scene as it opens its doors on Friday, September 12 at 5:30 a.m. Located at 241 Genesis Drive, North Aurora, IL, across from the North Aurora Auto Mall on Orchard Road, the new coffee shop will host a series of Grand Opening activities and promotions throughout the opening weekend of September 12-14.

A coffee expert will be stationed at the in-store roaster during the Grand Opening celebration to teach guests about roasting, help them select coffee beans, and answer questions about the coffees that will be offered. Committed to freshness and flavor, Dunn Bros Coffee provides guests with exceptional coffee --from coffee farm to coffee cup.
