Manhunt's strongest gameplay element is ultimately providing the gamer with a very precise stealthy set of actions and controls. As a stealth/action game, there's little else out there that comes this close to being real life. Conversely, it's really easy to get Cash into sticky situations where running from the action is the only way of survival. You'll need to bail on these situations a lot, so gamers looking for pure action will find themselves frustrated as they repeatedly get butchered over and over again. Run away and fight another day should be everyone's Manhunt mantra. Luckily, around halfway through the game, the action portion of the game heats up a little more and as Cash's temporary arsenal starts to include more and more guns, rifles, and firearms, you'll be able to deal with multiple enemies more easily that in the early stages of the game.
Part of the reason that Manhunt works so well as a stealth/action game is the intense violence and carnage that's witnessed by the player. I personally found the first few hours of gameplay to be some of the most disturbing video gaming I've ever experienced. The sheer raw and visceral nature of Cash's actions against other human beings is shocking to say the least. Given the fact that Cash is fighting for his life, I felt less guilty about essentially murdering white supremacist gang members as more time passed, but there's no denying that Manhunt is possibly the most mature video game to date. Whether or not the gaming police tuned into this fact remains to be seen, but parents should take heed of the Mature ESRB rating slapped firmly on the box.
Without going into too much gory detail, Cash's actions rely on him sneaking up behind the hunters that are after him, and performing a series of grisly execution-style moves. These moves really depend on which weapon you are in possession of, and how much insanity you want to put into the death move. For example, each execution has three levels of grossness. As Cash sneaks up behind a target, he'll raise his hands to signal that he's in execution range and a white target will appear over the victim. A game of chicken ensues, as the longer Cash primes his attack, the more hideous the outcome will be. The cursor changes from white to yellow to red, issuing three potential canned animations resulting in death. Of course, the tradeoff is that the longer Cash waits to kill, the more likely he is to be discovered by the target.
Methods of disposal include garroting a hunter with some razor wire (and subsequent decapitation -- yes, the head of your victim can be picked up and used as a projectile), suffocation with a regular plastic bag, skull-crushing blows bestowed with a baseball bat, neck-rending hacks and slashes with a machete, and a good old house brick which can be used for breaking faces. The execution scenes are not for the weak of heart. You have been warned!

text: 'The Triumph of the Eucharist' Makes Rare Appearance at the Getty 9:00 AM PDT 10/14/2014 by Jordan Riefe FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Jordan Riefe Spectacular Rubens Show - H 2014 Peter Paul Rubens' restored masterpieces are on display till Jan. 11 Although Peter Paul Rubens is recognized as one of the baroque period's greatest artists, no woman wants to be called Rubenesque, a term describing the overly healthy figures that populate his work, like the meaty angel of truth in "The Triumph of Truth Over Heresy," or the round-shouldered women in "The Israelites Gathering Manna in the Desert." Both are in the Getty's unique new exhibit Spectacular Rubens: The Triumph of the Eucharist, on display through Jan. 11. Rubens and "Infanta Isabel Clara Eugenia" go all the way back to 1609, when he was appointed court painter for her husband, Albert VII of Austria. Widowed in 1621, Isabel, a devout Catholic, turned to her faith and to Rubens as a confidant, even sending him on diplomatic missions, including spying on the French. It was during this period she handed him one of the biggest commissions in Europe, and certainly a landmark in his career: a series of 20 tapestries celebrating the glory of the Roman Catholic Church. Woven of silk and wool, and weighing hundreds of pounds, they took roughly eight years to finish, (Belgian weavers, the finest in the world, could take a year to complete one square meter). Donated by Isabel to Madrid's Monasterio de las Descalzas Reales (Convent of the Barefoot Royals), installation was completed in 1633. Plans for the massive tapestries, measuring an average of 15-by-22 feet, were painted on modelli, smaller wooden panels measuring 2-by-3 feet, six of which are on display along with four of the 20 tapestries, allegorical depictions with titles like The Triumph of Divine Love, in which Charity, pulled by lions in a chariot, is encircled by cherubim, and The Meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek, an Old Testament depiction of Abraham receiving bread and wine, a symbol for the body of Christ. Painted on oak wood, the modelli are nuanced works in their own right requiring four years of restoration courtesy of the Getty Foundation's $2 million grant as part of their panel paintings initiative, working in conjunction with Madrid's Prado Museum. Read more: Jackson Pollock's Most Important Painting Restored and on Display in L.A. "The most common method was to put a cradle on the back of it, which is a lattice structure, and that keeps it from moving," explains curator Anne Wollett about the difficult process of restoring the modelli. "But it also puts stress on the original wood panel." And as climates vary, the wood will naturally expand or contract. Held rigid by the cradle, it inevitably cracks and splinters as a result. "It's a very complicated restoration," offers the Prado's Alejandro Vergara. "The restorers were worried about doing it because you have to remove cradles from the back. So you're physically tampering with objects that have been together for 400 years." In the end, restorers removed the cradles from the back of the panels and replaced them with new cradles that would accommodate micro movements in the wood and still hold the artwork flat. Back at the Convent of Barefoot Royals, when told of the Prado's request to borrow some of the tapestries to show alongside the modelli, the Mother Superior wondered why they didn't just bring the modelli to the convent. It was a reasonable suggestion unless you consider a 2010 Rubens exhibit at the Prado drew over 300,000 art lovers. "Our job in a museum is to conserve and to study and to let people know about art," Vergara recalls how he explained to the convent why the Prado was a more appropriate venue. "A project like this, we're drawing people into the museum and allowing them to enjoy it. When a museum does something, a lot of people come to see it."

Tea Trip
Many years ago I was for some days in Salerno, south Italy, with friends musicians who were having rehearsals. One day, while we were around a table drinking a tea, the singer (who was from Senegal) started to sing a song imitating the Senegal women when they call each other. Some of these moments were recorded; some fragments are scattered in the piece. (First Performance on acousmonium Motus: August 22, 2013, -‐ Festival Futura, Crest, France).

Four Amorous Cocktails For Valentine's Day
A few weeks back I was asked to design a couple of signature cocktails for two intimate dinners hosted by the innovative wedding registry site Zola.com in the luxurious Parachute Hotel in Venice Beach.
Because the theme of these dinners was inspired by LOOOOOVE, and with names like Honeymoon in Havana and La La Love, I thought these cocktails would be perfect to share right before Valentine's Day to get y'alll in the mood…
For our first dinner with wedding industry insiders, we made a vodka based gimlet with hibiscus syrup and elderflower liqueur and a ginger-y take on a mojito.
For the Garden Party Gimlet, we used Our/Los Angeles Vodka as its base and made a hibiscus syrup to give it an especially vibrant fuchsia hue. The addition of St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur added warm floral notes, and in keeping with the flowery theme, we topped this all off with edible blossoms.
Garden Party Gimlet
2 oz Our/Los Angeles Vodka
1 oz St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur
1/2 oz Hibiscus Syrup*
1/2 oz Lime Juice
Garnish: Assorted Edible Flowers
Shake all ingredients until chilled. Strain into a coupe glass. Garnish with edible flowers.
The Honeymoon in Havana cocktail was inspired by the ever popular mojito.
Because we designed these cocktails with a wedding in mind, we wanted to elevate the traditional mojito recipe by swapping out sugar as the sweetener with BBAF fave Barrow's Intense Ginger Liqueur and using sparkling wine in place of club soda.
You'll need a light, clean rum like Don Q Cristal for the base of this drink and fresh lime and mint are key!
Honeymoon in Havana
2 oz Don Q Cristal Rum
1 oz Barrow's Intense Ginger Liqueur
1/2 oz Lime Juice
3 Mint Leaves
1/2 oz Sparkling Wine
In a small Collins glass muddle lime juice and 2 mint leaves. Add ice, rum, ginger liqueur and sparkling wine. Stir with straw and garnish with mint.
For the second intimate Zola dinner, we created cocktails for recently engaged bloggers and social media influencers.
These were both simple but delicious cocktails with some added flourishes like edible glitter and orchid garnishes.
The Stars in the Garden, while fairly simple – with pink grapefruit juice, St-Germain and sparkling wine, was an instant hit.
Besides going down a little too easy, it literally sparkled! Edible glitter was added to make the drink shimmer, and floating edible stars were placed ever so delicately on top with tweezers!
Stars in the Garden
2 oz Pink Grapefruit Juice
1 oz St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur
3 oz Sparkling Wine
Garnish: Edible Glitter, Edible Stars
In an ice-filled shaker add 1/2 tsp edible glitter, pink grapefruit juice and St-Germain. Shake until well chilled and strain into a coupe glass. Top off with sparkling wine and place about 2 dozen tiny edible stars on top.
The La La Love is probably the most Valentines-y cocktail of the bunch. With this drink we brought back Our/Los Angeles Vodka, hibiscus syrup and edible flowers.
We used fresh squeezed meyer lemon juice (plucked from a friend's tree just the day before!) and topped this all off with club soda. This is like a refreshing boozy hibiscus lemonade. Also perfect for a summer wedding!
But it's the orchid garnish that really sexes this drink right up. When looking for edible flowers for this event, I was surprised by how many grocery stores actually carry an assortment of edible blossoms in their produce department. Apparently, these can also be very good in salad greens!
La La Love
2 oz Our/Los Angeles Vodka
1/2 oz Hibiscus Syrup*
1/2 oz Meyer Lemon Juice
Club Soda
Garnish: Edible Orchid
In an ice-filled shaker add vodka, syrup and lemon juice and shake until chilled. Strain into an ice-filled highball glass and top with soda. Stir with straw and garnish with orchid.
* Hibiscus Syrup
1 cup of sugar
1 cup water
1/4 cup dried hibiscus flowers
Tbsp lime zest
Pinch of salt to taste
Combine sugar, water and hibiscus over med-high heat in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for another 5 minutes, stirring until all sugar is dissolved. With the heat off, let steep for another 20 minutes. Add lime zest and pinch of salt. Double strain through wire mesh and let cool. Will keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks.

HTC Corporation today announced today the launch of a global advertising campaign that has been built around the company's new Quietly Brilliant brand positioning. The newly debuted 'YOU' campaign is the first global ad campaign from the company and will be rolled out in around 20 countries over the next six months and features a tag-line 'You don't need to get a phone. You need a phone that gets you.' This ad campaign aim to make HTC a household name in the United States.
"Quietly brilliant is doing great things in a humble way, with the belief that the best things in life can only be experienced, not explained. The YOU campaign is the perfect embodiment of 'quietly brilliant' and is core to HTC as a company, innovator and partner", says John Wang, chief marketing officer, HTC Corporation.
HTC has also announced that it has partnered with the Los Angeles based advertising agency, Deutsch LA Inc. for the launching of the new campaign and said that it is aimed at reaching consumers via television, print, outdoor and online media channels. The unique functionality of HTC smartphones will be highlighted throughout the campaign.
"We've come to have a very emotional relationship with our phones. Many of our key experiences in any given day come through this one device and yet most of the advertising in the category is still about utility. HTC's whole design philosophy is very personal. They make phones where your experience is completely unique, so we think there is a connection between how people feel about their phones and how HTC makes them", says Eric Hirshberg, co-CEO and chief creative officer, Deutsch LA.

Florida prof insists 'White Racism' course 'not anti-white'
- A Florida Gulf Coast University professor is steadfastly defending a course titled "White Racism" that has become subject to intense criticism.
- The three-credit course, which will be offered during the spring 2018 semester, is apparently popular with students, having already reached its 50-student enrollment cap, with two students on a wait list.
- The instructor, Dr. Ted Thornhill, argues that his course is "not anti-white; it is anti-white racism," but also asserts that "the U.S. has been and remains a white supremacist society."
A Florida Gulf Coast University course titled "White Racism" has sparked an ongoing debate surrounding its intent, though the instructor continues to defend it in the face of criticism.
The course initially drew media attention in October, but critics and commentators have continued to spar over its legitimacy, with some describing it as hostile towards white people, and others—especially its instructor, Dr. Ted Thornhill—defending it as necessary.
[RELATED: Prof pledges to 'deconstruct whiteness' in all her courses]
In any event, the three-credit course is popular among students, having already reached its maximum capacity of 50 for the spring 2018 semester, with two students on the waitlist.
Notably, the minimum rate per credit hour at FGCU is $203, meaning students are paying at least $609 to take the course, and possibly as much as $2,514, according to the Office of the Bursar.
Participants in the course will "interrogate the concept of race," while examining "the racist ideologies, laws, policies, and practices that have operated for hundreds of years to maintain white racial domination over those racialized as non-white."
Additionally, students will "discuss ways to challenge white racism and white supremacy toward promoting an anti-racist society where whiteness is not tied to greater life chances," a course description notes.
College Republicans treasurer Alex Pilkington took issue with the title of the course, telling News-Press that he would have a preferred a name such as "Systemic Racism" because "giving it 'White Racism' as the name of the class" makes it seem "like it's intentional you are trying to make white people look at the class a certain way."
[RELATED: Exiled Drexel prof blames 'whiteness' for Las Vegas massacre]
Thornhill adamantly rejects such criticisms, though, remarking in an initial statement that his course is "not anti-white; it is anti-white racism."
While he makes clear that "not all white people are racists," pointing out that "some are even anti-racist," Thornhill also asserts that there is "much evidence" showing that "the U.S. has been and remains a white supremacist society."
"Any 'controversy' generated by the course title or description testifies to its urgency," his statement concludes. "Attempts to paint the course as anything other than that contained in the course description, which is self-explanatory, betrays gross ignorance and/or malevolent intent as well as a self-evident need to enroll in the course."

Count down shirt c /o: Put a Bird on It// Leggings: Preggo Leggings
This post was meant to go up two weeks ago when I was actually 34 weeks pregnant…but you know life happened and then I got attacked by a death cold and then hubby got attacked by some wicked bug and well here we are two weeks later! So go ahead and cross off 2 more weeks on this adorable count down shirt! And get ready for a bumpdate!
Weight gain: Still going steady. I gain a couple pounds at each appointment which brings me to 23 pounds total right now. I got a fit bit for my birthday and can't wait to get back to working out once I get the all clear after baby! Yoga, zumba, dance, running here I come!
Symptoms: heartburn heartburn heartburn. You baby better have some hair to thank for this! Back and pelvis pain. Baby has moved even lower than normal and its definitely causing some aches and pains. My nausea has been showing up again here and there and food is less and less appetizing again but it is nothing compared to first trimester thank goodness!
Cravings: Fruit! I cannot get enough fruit. I keep wanting to crave veggies but I just do not like veggies! Other than that I just crave random things are random times.
Preparations: It is really hard to not be living in our own place right now because getting ready for baby has been kind of hard! I washed all his clothes and blankets and towels and then had to pack them away. All his nursery stuff is sitting in boxes and bags. His crib is in its box. We will be moving into our new place September 4…which is a week after his due date…which is NOT ideal! But we will make it work!! It will feel so good after we move to get everything settled! I cannot wait to get his nursery all put together! I did however get his hospital bag all packed and am working on mine and we bought his carseat! So I at least feel prepared for that!
Random: My absolute most favourite thing to do is watch baby move my stomach. It is SO real that he is in there moving around. Watching my stomach move and knowing that its his little bum, or his knees, or shoulder. Or feeling his little feet tickle my side which he stretches out! When he sticks his little feet out I like to "tickle" them or push on them and then he curls them back up.
I cannot believe we only have one month left until we meet our baby boy! He may even come sooner who knows! What I do know is I go back and forth every day from being SO ready to just wanting him to stay put for a little while longer. But alas he will come when he comes and as long as he is healthy then thats good enough for me!
Let the countdown continue! eeeek!

Put simply, Warren Buffett has created one of the most remarkable companies ever through Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B).
But there is one major threat that could bring the castle he created crumbling down.
One cause of concern
There's a lot to like about Berkshire Hathaway and the empire Warren Buffett has built, but its biggest threat may in fact be just that, it's empire. Or, more exactly, what the Federal Reserve decides to do with that empire.
Earlier this year, we learned regulators had begun to look at Berkshire Hathaway -- and its nearly half a trillion dollars in assets -- to determine whether or not it should be deemed a "Systematically Important Financial Institution," or SIFI. If the Financial Stability Oversight Council determines Berkshire Hathaway is a SIFI -- meaning its failure could threaten the broader stability of the markets -- it could be a devastating blow to Buffett's company.
This designation would result in new regulatory scrutiny and oversight. It would become regulated by the Federal Reserve and as the consultancy Deloitte notes, "Nonbank SIFIs must comply with the Board of Governors' capital plan rule and develop annual capital plans, conduct capital adequacy stress tests, and maintain adequate capital."
In short, it would face the same continuous oversight and requirements many have worried may cripple the ability of banks to earn adequate returns. It was just in December of last year when Bloomberg reported insurer MetLife revealed "pending oversight from U.S. regulators poses the biggest challenge," to its goal to increase its profitability.
The major impact
While we can only speculate on what the impact could be to Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway, it's not unreasonable to think this designation would lead to increased costs as Berkshire maintained its newfound requirements. With just 24 corporate employees, one has to think more would need to be hired to simply comply with the reporting.
Not only would it lead to greater expenses, it could also potentially limit its ability to make massive investments as deploy its earnings to the most profitable businesses. And that is to say nothing of the limit that could be imposed on its ability to make acquisitions of other businesses, which stood at a resounding $21 billion in 2013 alone.
In the 2009 letter to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders Buffett said:
We will never become dependent on the kindness of strangers. Too-big-to-fail is not a fallback position at Berkshire.
We can only hope the government agrees with him.

Dear: Ketut Maryana: We have decided to spend our year end vacation in Bali and have been browsing internet for quite sometime in search for suitable transportation to cater our large group. We stumble upon the website "driversbali.com" and feel attracted right away. Fair enough, the company offers 12 seats transportation (minibus – Isuze Elf) which is really perfect for 11 of us. Liaising with Ketut via email is pleasant as he never fails to respond to any of our query in due time. Since we are very comfortable, we booked the transportation for 4 days with own itinerary. Once we are in Bali, never once Ketut disappoints us. He is always on time (in fact earlier than should), very accommodating, polite and funny as well. He is also flexible where he sometimes waited and dropped us in town on his way home, after the charter hour without additional charge. Ketut is also helpful in suggesting and planning the route of our own itinerary. Throughout our transport charter days, we are always happy and comfortable with the condition of the minibus. It's new, big, clean and perfect! A person of 4' 10 inches height can actually stand in the minibus J. This is not our first time in Bali (for some of us in the group) and comparing the service we had before, we would recommend Ketut Maryana to all our friends here. Ketut Maryana is the BEST!

Having Ketut Maryana as our driver during our time in Bali made our trip perfect, He was great guide as well. We did our own surfing odyssey. We visited the basic Kuta beach to start but soon we found ourselves in some of the most amazing sports such as Dreamland, Uluwatu, Tanah Lot, Balangan and Canggu. We will be doing this again for surf and I would not do it any other way.

Dear: Ketut Maryana
It was my first time in Bali and was travelling alone and it was important to ensure I got the right travel agent from internet and he was Pak Ketut Maryana from www.balitransports.com
Right from the first day, he was punctual and his car spick and span. It was a memorable two days and an unforgettable experience in Uluwatu temple when monkey snatched away my specs having me stunned but alas there was good Balinese Pak Ketut who comes to my rescue. Pak Ketut Maryana had already advised me about the monkeys but I did not take heed. Always listen to good advice from pak Ketut Maryana.
I will travel again with my families contact Pak Ketut Maryana again for my next trip to Bali.

Dear Pak Ketut Maryana
Driving in Bali is not an easy task. The roads are not clearly marked and they are mostly narrow and congested with all types of vehicles most of which are of the 2 wheel variety. The Bali drivers are however extremely skilled, well mannered and make up for these deficiencies (never any road rage).
I must say that without the services of driver Pak Ketut Maryana, our one-week holiday would not have been as pleasant. He is a most courteous, kind and very experienced driver and we felt extremely safe when he was at the wheel. He anticipated our needs and his vehicle was always clean and tidy. Additionally, he never arrived late for any of our pick up schedules.
Pak Ketut Maryana is also very knowledgeable about the best tourist locations and activities. We have no reservation in recommending his services to any family or person visiting Bali.

Single Mom Shows Off Daughters 4-Story Dollhouse, Then Reveals She Crafted It All Herself
Most little girls love dolls, dollhouses, and creating their own little world with their toys. When Elaine Shaw saw how excited her little girl was at the sight of a traditional dollhouse, she decided to give her daughter exactly what she wanted but with a modern twist.
In the video below, posted on January 6, 2014, the single mom explains: "It all started when I was a child. Two of my uncles made two different dollhouses for me and then in the 1970s, my mom worked in a dollhouse factory."
Elaine's passion for tinkering with miniatures seems to be genetic. After a long stretch of hard work, the proud mom revealed her four-story dollhouse called MiPad, which looks like a mini version of a millionaire's home.
It features a flat-screen TV, a surround-sound entertainment system, real oil paintings, a billiards table, and sliding doors. Each floor is built one at a time.
"My aim is to bring dollhouses right back into fashion," Elaine states.
This creative mom is definitely doing so with her sleekdesigns and handmade approach.
Since the creation of her daughter's dollhouse, she has set up MIAIMminiatures, a site where anyone can purchase their own MiPad.
To see a full tour of her magnificent dollhouse, check out the video below, and please don't forget toSHARE this story if you wish you had a dollhouse this incredible!

How to Recognize a Urinary Tract Infection in Your Child
Does it burn when your child urinates? This is one of many signs of a urinary tract infection.
According to the National Institutes of Health, urinary tract infections are responsible for more than one million yearly pediatrician visits every year in the United States. A urinary tract infection, or UTI, occurs when bacteria infect the kidneys, bladder, urethra, or other parts of the urinary tract.
Bacteria that can cause a UTI can live in the digestive tract, vagina, or around the urethra, and normally won't cause a problem there. But if these bacteria enter the urethra, they can travel to the bladder, kidneys, and other parts of the urinary tract. A bladder infection is a type of UTI that affects the bladder, but has not spread upward toward the kidneys.
The bacteria that lead to UTIs may be eliminated from the urinary tract before causing an infection, but they can cause a UTI in people who are prone to them. Girls, for example, seem to be more likely to get a urinary tract infection than boys.
Urinary Tract Infection Symptoms
"The most common symptoms of a UTI are a burning sensation when the child urinates, lower abdominal pain where the bladder is, frequency of urination — feeling like you really have to go to the bathroom all the time but only a little comes out — and urgency — feeling like you have to urinate right now," says Barbara Frankowski, MD, MPH, professor of pediatrics at the University of Vermont College of Medicine and a pediatrician at Vermont Children's Hospital in Burlington, Vt.
Dr. Frankowski notes that when the UTI is more serious, the child may also develop a fever. But most UTIs, including bladder infections, are not usually associated with fever.
Other signs of a UTI may include:
- Foul-smelling urine
- Urine that appears milky, cloudy, or reddish
- Fatigue
- Chills and or fever
UTI symptoms may be harder to recognize in kids than in adults. Sometimes children do not show classic symptoms of a UTI, or they may not be able to explain them to their parents. If your child has the following signs of a possible UTI, you should immediately contact your health care provider:
- Irritable mood
- Irregular eating and appetite
- Unexplained and persistent fever
- Incontinence (wetting pants or bed if already toilet-trained)
- Diarrhea
- Persistent low energy level or just not feeling well
Urinary Tract Infection Treatment
Tests used to diagnose a UTI usually include a physical exam and a urine sample. It is important to test urine for the presence of bacteria, since true UTIs are uncommon in children, and rawness of the genitals, especially in girls, can cause UTI-like symptoms such as burning during urination.
When a UTI is diagnosed, your child's doctor will prescribe antibiotics to kill the bacteria that are causing the infection. It is important that your child takes the antibiotics as directed, and takes the complete course — all the medicine, even if the symptoms get better. The pediatrician may also order more tests after your child completes treatment. These tests may be done to be sure there is no abnormality of your child's urinary tract, such as a tiny blockage, which might cause repeated infections.
Urinary Tract Infection Prevention
If your child is prone to getting UTIs, these following tips can help prevent them:
- Push fluids. Make sure your child drinks plenty of water every day. Cranberry juice can also lower the risk of UTI.
- Encourage frequent bathroom breaks. Teach your child to urinate when he or she feels the urge.
- Teach your daughter to wipe well from the front to the back after going to the bathroom.
- Choose cotton underwear and avoid dressing your child in tight-fitting clothes.
These prevention tips are easy to follow and easy on your wallet. Gentle, steady reminders to your child will help reinforce these tips, without making the child feel anxious.

Fishing Fleet Decommissioning Scheme
3:00 pm
Liam Twomey (Fine Gael)
Link to this: Individually | In context
This issue arose in the courts and I was informed the case was settled two weeks ago, but that does not seem to be so. The issue relates to the decommissioning of a fishing boat. No vessel can be decommissioned until the Department has given permission for that and permission is usually given on the basis that decommissioning is approved. In this case, because the decommissioning was appealed and this appeal went to court, the shipping vessel in question is still tied up in Kilmore Quay. The Department has been asked to sign off on the vessel and allow it to go for scrappage but to allow the terms stand if the court so agrees. That is because it is now basically a health and safety issue and the ship may be a danger to people who use the harbour. There are also significant costs involved for the individual concerned who must pay for the vessel being in port.
The Department has the discretion to say the vessel can be decommissioned without prejudice to the case. The problem with regard to the court case is that the Minister is, technically, the person being sued. Will the Minister of State inform me whether the case remains sub judice or what we can say on the issue? I understand that in the High Court this morning and two weeks ago no representative turned up from the Department to say whether it agreed with the judge's terms.
Paddy Burke (Fine Gael)

We must be very careful in our discussion in case the matter is sub judice and before the High Court.
Liam Twomey (Fine Gael)
Link to this: Individually | In context
The problem is the High Court has made a decision. However, there was nobody in court from the Department to accept that decision. That is the reason I am asking the Minister of State to clarify the situation as it is the Minister who is involved. A decision was made this morning with regard to costs, but nobody turned up to represent the Minister. There is, therefore, a difficulty. It may well be that the case is completed, but will the Minister of State inform me whether that is the case? I assume the case is completed and the Minister can now speak on it as the judge has given his decision. However, on two occasions in the past fortnight nobody turned up in the High Court to represent the Minister or to defend the Government's position. The position two weeks ago was that the judge found there had been an inordinate delay in the case. Will the Minister of State give me some guidance on the issue before we discuss it at length? It is a serious case, which has been going on for years, and its outcome will have a significant effect on the person involved.
I will take direction from the Minister of State on the decision. If the Department considers the case is finished, we can continue the discussion on the case of the individual in question. However, the Minister may intend to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. Perhaps the Minister of State will indicate whether that is the case. It is unbelievable that when the State is being sued by an individual because of something such as the State disagreeing with one of its appeal boards, the State does not turn up for proceedings. I must get direction on this matter from the Minister of State before we go any further.
Trevor Sargent (Minister of State with special responsibility for Food and Horticulture, Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food; Dublin North, Green Party)

Gabhaim buíochas leis an Leas-Chathaoirleach as ucht deis a thabhairt dom labhairt ar an ábhar seo. I am familiar with the scenario of fishing boats that are no longer in use being tied up in harbours, particularly in my area in Balbriggan and Skerries. I thank Senator Twomey for putting down this motion for debate as it gives me an opportunity to update the House on the successful implementation of the decommissioning schemes in line with the recommendations of the White and Cawley reports. I am restricted in what I can say regarding compensation for the vessel involved as I have not yet received the written judgment on the case.
Under the terms of the EU Common Fisheries Policy, the primary mechanism for reducing fishing effort and finding a balance between the fleet size and available fishing entitlements is decommissioning. In Ireland, it is widely accepted that there are too many boats chasing too few fish in most species. This basic imbalance leads to the following problems: pressure on fish stocks through over fishing, which in turn has led to the new range of EU restrictions on fishing activity and effort; a volatile economic and financial environment for the boat owners, the fishers and the processors in the industry; and an underlying temptation to exceed fishing restrictions, which can in some instances lead to legal actions against fishermen and by the EU against the Government.
The central recommendation of a review carried out under the chairmanship of Mr. Padraic White in 2005 was that the Government should back a decommissioning scheme to remove 25% or 10,937 gross tonnes of the whitefish fleet — polyvalent and beam trawl segments — and to reduce the scallop fleet to a level of 4,800 kW. Following the review of the decommissioning needs of the whitefish and shellfish fleet by Mr. Padraic White in July 2005, the scheme to permanently withdraw capacity from the demersal and shellfish sectors of the Irish fishing fleet, commonly referred to as the fishing vessel decommissioning scheme, was launched on 5 October 2005. The closing date for receipt of applications was 1 November 2005. There were 64 applications under the scheme. The terms of the decommissioning scheme provided a right of appeal to an independent appeals officer appointed by the Minister — a non-statutory arrangement.
An updated analysis undertaken in the Cawley review in 2006 indicated that whitefish stocks generally, and available quota in particular, would have to be 45% greater to yield a viable return for the vessels in the demersal — whitefish and nephrops — sector. Steering a New Course, the Strategy for a Restructured, Sustainable and Profitable Irish Seafood Industry 2007-2013, the Cawley report, recommended a restructured fishing fleet consistent with the sustainable exploitation of available resources and economic requirements of vessel owners and the shore-based industries dependent on it.
Following agreement with the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and state aid approval by the European Commission, the 2008 scheme to permanently withdraw capacity from the whitefish sector of the Irish fishing fleet was formally launched in February 2008. A total of 71 applications were received. Some 45 of these vessels decommissioned at a total cost of €36 million and with a total of 6,818 gross tons and 19,039 kW being removed from the register. Some €21 million of this was spent in 2008 with the remainder being spent in the first quarter of 2009.
There are overwhelming benefits to getting the fundamental imbalance adjusted between fleet capacity and fishing entitlements. It would result in a secure future, based on attractive economic returns, for those remaining in the whitefish and shellfish industries.
In the specific case raised by the Senator, the application to decommission the vessel in question was made under the 2005 decommissioning scheme. It was governed by Council Regulation No. 2792/1999, which lays down the detailed rules and arrangements regarding Community structural assistance in the fisheries sector and specifies that, to be eligible for a decommissioning grant or scrapping premium, a vessel must meet the following criteria: the vessel must have carried out a fishing activity for at least 75 days at sea in each of the two periods of 12 months preceding the date of the application for permanent withdrawal; the vessel must be ten years old, or more; the vessel must be operational at the time the decision is taken to grant the premium; and prior to its permanent withdrawal, the vessel must be registered in the fishing vessel register of the Community.
The purpose of the decommissioning scheme for the demersal and shellfish fleets is to establish a better balance between fleet size and available fishing entitlements. Ireland's fishing fleets, like those of all our European partners, are governed by the rules of the Common Fisheries Policy, a complex policy that incorporates a significant volume of legislation. Ireland's fisheries are subject to a range of management measures put in place to ensure the sustainable exploitation of fish resources. These obviously impact both nationally and at an individual level, and significantly affect how each fishing vessel or fisherman may conduct business. There is a complex range of instruments employed under the CFP to manage fishing within the EU.
The person involved applied for the decommissioning of his vessel. BIM wrote to the applicant on 1 September 2006 advising him that he had been unsuccessful in his application because he had not met the minimum criteria of the scheme, specifically the days-at-sea requirement. The applicant appealed this decision and on 5 September 2007 the appeals officer granted the appeal. The Department sought legal advice as it believed the appeals officer's determination was in contradiction of Council Regulation No. 2792/1999, which sets down the detailed rules for the payment of grant aid in the decommissioning scheme. In the context of the legal advice received, a judicial review was commenced.
The High Court judicial review judgment in regard to this vessel was given on or about Friday, 20 March 2009, and the Department is awaiting the perfection of the order in the High Court offices. This is expected to be available within the next few days. The Department will be consulting legal advisors in the context of the perfected judgment when it is available. I am not yet able to comment on possible compensation or a timeframe for this, especially in view of the fact the legal process has not yet been completed and the possibility of an appeal cannot be ruled out at this stage.
Liam Twomey (Fine Gael)
Link to this: Individually | In context
I will have to accept what the Minister of State is saying but the judgment made should have been sought by or given to him in preparation for this reply. As he is well aware, this is a very serious issue and a huge financial burden is being placed on the individual involved. There is a sense of David and Goliath in that the individual does not have the financial resources of the State. If the Minister examined this case, he would understand there is merit in paying the compensation rather than trying to break the individual financially, perhaps in a Supreme Court appeal. Will the Minister of State make these views known to the Minister, who has ultimate responsibility? The taxpayer has certain protections and we cannot be wasting money on expensive court cases. More important is the individual right of the citizen, which the Minister should bear in mind.
Trevor Sargent (Minister of State with special responsibility for Food and Horticulture, Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food; Dublin North, Green Party)
Link to this: Individually | In context
I must be very careful in commenting, as the Senator will appreciate. Suffice it to say the Department is simply trying to be fair to the applicant while at the same time ensuring the integrity of the scheme. Precedent and the need to be in compliance with the EU regulations governing decommissioning must be considered. In trying to be of assistance, it is important that we do not land ourselves in circumstances that we will question in hindsight. This is why there needs to be a process in which every t is crossed and every i dotted. This is why I cannot say any more today. Perhaps the Senator will table a further question when, as it seems, a fuller answer will be available in days to come.

Verse 1
I desire now with everything I am to
Figure out what it means to love you
Jesus. I become so enamored with the
Promises this world makes to me.
Lord let me see that you
Hold my life in your hands.
My every step you have planned.
Loose every chain that has held us a--
part, I don't wanna care what it takes
To lose myself so I can start finding you
for who you are
Lead my wandering heart
Guide this wandering heart
Lead my wandering heart
Guide me to a brand new start
Verse 2
When I go back to building castles in the sand
Praising all the work of my own hands
I become so forgetful of the promise you
gave, that what I build in your kingdom
The world can't wash away, because you
(to Chorus)

Spirit, lead me
Father, hold me

Jimmy Fallon Proves Jessica Biel Wasn't an *NSYNC Fan
'The Tonight Show' host hit her with a surprise
Jimmy Fallon is a savage.
Once again The Tonight Show host has surprised a guest with a sneak-attack video, leaving them shocked in the hilarious aftermath. Earlier this month Fallon conspired with Taylor Swift's mom to bring us the instant classic, "post-surgery banana" video, and now he has unearthed an old interview featuring Jessica Biel that's about to make things more interesting in the Timberlake household.
During her visit on Tuesday night, Jimmy calls Biel out for not being a fan of her husband Justin Timberlake's former group, *NSYNC.
"I was just listening to old school stuff," Biel defended. "I was listening to theater productions, I was listening to 'Rent,' I knew every word of 'Rent.'"
"I lived under a rock, I wasn't into pop culture music."
WATCH MORE: Jimmy Fallon's Parenting Advice For Justin Timberlake
Jimmy then reveals that they found an interview with Jessica during the height of *NSYNC, as Jessica rolls her eyes and begins to get worried. "Jimmy, no. No, please," she pleaded before Fallon showed the clip from 1999 of Biel being asked if she's an *NSYNC fan.
"To be honest, I don't really listen," she says in the throwback clip. "I mean, I know of them of course, and I've heard of them and I've heard their music. I don't think I own any of their CDs. I'm not a huge fan. Um, but I mean, cool I guess."

TEMECULA: Bridge Housing scores tax credits for Summerhouse complex
TEMECULA — San Francisco-based Bridge Housing recently was awarded almost $1 million in tax credits that will allow the nonprofit to start work on the second phase of the Summerhouse affordable housing complex.
That complex, near the intersection of Margarita Road and Temecula Parkway, eventually will feature a mix of 110 units including apartments reserved for low- to moderate-income residents.
Work on the second phase, that consists of 60 apartments, was placed on hold while Bridge applied for the tax credits, which are federal rebates awarded by the state to spur construction of affordable housing.
Lyn Hikida, Bridge's director of communications and fund development, said work on the development is scheduled to begin in late spring.
"All funding is in place for Phase 2," she said.
The first phase consisted of 20 apartments at the heart of the complex, which initially had been pitched as a luxury condominium complex for senior citizens. The third phase is scheduled to include 15 apartments for people making 80 percent to 120 percent of the area median income and 15 others for those in the 30 percent to 50 percent range.
The partially built condo complex was abandoned during the banking crisis of the late 2000s.
To get something built on that site, the city's Redevelopment Agency partnered with Bridge and loaned the nonprofit millions to help bankroll construction.
That vote was controversial in some quarters and the plans were opposed by a group of nearby residents concerned about a possible spike in crime and lower property values associated with the project.
To help assuage those concerns, the council created a committee to oversee operations at the complex that includes area residents and people who live in the apartments.
It took Bridge years to receive the tax credits in part because there was a sort of "arms race" that saw rival agencies contributing large sums of money to affordable housing projects to avoid losing the money to the state, which ended up spiking all of the state's redevelopment agencies.
The city of Temecula's agency, in contrast, did not pledge any additional money toward the project, in part because of the controversy it stirred up in the past.

Right before this problem happened, I had suddenly experienced a weird screen glitch and knew to restart my computer. Now, it asks for a BIOS admin or power on password which I did not set. What the heck is going on, and what could I do to fix this?? --WHAT-I-HAVE-TRIED--I have tried "12345"I have tried a blank fieldI have tried "biosPower"-------------------------- --COMPUTER-INFO--Product: HP Stream Notebook 11 (no touchscreen)Product version: 8.1 (x64 architecture)---------------------- If I need to put any more info, just ask.

I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)

[I was pleased to hear from someone who usually reads but doesn't admit it. In honor of that person, have an extra entry! -BB]
I fussed privately about honor and etiquette, and decided to be sensible. We stripped the bed from Suite 406, and bought some rope and carabiners and a mountain-climber's harness from a sporting goods store. We went to the top of the bank — the bloodstain was still there — and I turned back into me. We tied a couple loops of rope around my neck, snapped Tarcuna on with carabiners, and wrapped her in blankets. I cast the Scratch-the-Sky — I don't know any better spells to speed up flight. It's not really nice to leave big aching cuts in the middle air, so nobody uses that spell in a civilized world unless they really need to. But this isn't a civilized world, there's nobody flying around but hovens, and I was in a hurry.
I also put the Esrret-Sky-Painted on, but that doesn't work very well if there's a big aerial wound pointing right at an invisible me. The fighter planes from Dorday figured it out pretty fast. Also they figured out the practical way that flying through the Scratch-the-Sky's scratch would wreck their planes and they should fly to the side of it. I had to give up on the Scratch-the-Sky, and just fly along at a leisurely just-my-wings sort of pace, and watch the fighter planes zoom past me trying to find me.
After a while they gave up or got very far away, so I put the Scratch-the-Sky back on. Which upset a great many hovens, since I was flying near a big city — Tublier, according to Tarcuna. Many, many warplanes were already in the sky, and most of them started flying towards me as soon as they could see the wound. I tossed the Scratch-the-Sky away again, and landed, and caught and ate a horse and a half, in a barn, while the Trestean military worked exceedingly hard to keep me away from a city that I didn't actually want to visit that day.
«Where are you?» screamed Ythac, underlining his letters three times in my imagination.
«In Tublier, in Trest. Not quite halfway there.»
«Well, Arilash and I have been her for two hours!»
«Well, Arilash has adult travel spells. I've only got a stupid little baby the Scratch-the-Sky, and I can't even use it half the time.»
We snarled at each other, and promised to gnaw each others' tails off after we'd rescued Llredh. Ythac is such an anxious mommy-drake sometimes. It's not as if a wormridden Llredh is going to get any worse. He couldn't hurt himself if he wanted to, not in any way that would be bad for the worm anyways. Ythac was unconvinced.
I took care of cloacal matters that I hadn't wanted to deal with in hoven form — if it's slow going in, it'll be slow going out, and that's not the fun direction. And raided the farmhouse for food for Tarcuna, who didn't want burnt horse. I didn't want her going hungry, she was still recovering. If Ythac wants my expert services — or my public friend's expert services — he'll have to have them on my terms.
Coda: Carrying Small People
Dragons are not zeppelins! We do not generally take passengers. Ordinary honor and politeness says, if you must carry a few small people in the air, is to hold them in your foreclaws. The theory is, that way you can carry them around and intimidate them at the same time. If they get annoying, you can start to close your paw on them, which will often scare them. If they get very annoying you can either crush them or drop them.
I'm not generally one to dispute the theory of honor and etiquette. This time, though, I really don't understand. How often do you carry someone around who you're willing to kill? Or someone who you need to intimidate?
I have only carried one small person in my paw flying, ever. (Verimet, which shouldn't be surprising at all.) It was hideously inconvenient. I couldn't tell if I was holding her nicely, or I had accidentally dropped her without realizing it, or I was crushing her. After a bit I stopped and made her tie herself to my fingers, so at least I couldn't drop her so easily, and told her to scream if I started crushing her, which happened a couple of times. I had to heal her with the Great Titan Sanitarium, which didn't work very well. We still got there in time, more or less. I got Rankotherium to teach me the Arcane Anodyne the next day. Anyways, I don't like carrying people in my paws. Especially not for as long a flight as this was going to be.
Carrying someone on your back is considered to be (a) inconvenient and (b) a great honor for the someone. I will utterly vouch for (a) inconvenient! Especially when you have just accidentally rendered the someone's right arm unusable, and you don't have anyone to help you put her on.
(b) A great honor for the someone … I don't think so, in this case. If anyone is wondering whether I am doing Tarcuna a great honor, well, I did a lot of work to heal her. Much more work than your average slave is worth. A public friend ought to be worth less than that even, by any reasonable measure: if someone's just hired for a short-term job, you don't have much of an investment in them.
So I think Tarcuna has some kind of hold on me. For one thing, it's never a good idea to kill someone you've worked that hard to save. You look so foolish when you do that. So, if I were carrying her in my paw, I couldn't drop her or squish her, not sensibly.
Under no circumstances is it the least bit acceptable to let the small person on your back rein you.
Anyhow, that's why I decided to let her ride on my back.
