1. 欧文的原型叫梅尔·温伯格，事实上，他和情妇被联邦调查局征募，让8名特定官员因受贿被免了职。和电影里一样，温伯格和联邦调查局精心设计骗局，抓了这些腐败政治家现行。温伯格后来真的和一名官员成了朋友，但与电影不同，他的最终豁免协议没有让他想帮助的朋友免受牵连。有些事情，即使是对职业罪犯来说也太过牵强。

In 2014, Microsoft MSFT -0.84% , PayPal, Dell, and Dish Network DISH 2.24% , among many others, announced they would accept bitcoin as payment for a range of products.

Don’t be at all surprised if Yahoo soon goes even bigger on bitcoin—whether by acquiring a bitcoin startup or some other announcement—as part of CEO Marissa Mayer’s ongoing effort to make the stalling search giant more hip.
