Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Review 0
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune tells the story of Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, as well as a descendant of the famous historical figure Sir Francis Drake. Drake and his friend, Sully, are chasing the ancient lost city of El Dorado. Together, accompanied by journalist Elena, they follow clues in the journal that belonged to Francis Drake himself. You can expect some plot twists here and there, and for the most part, the story is great. It starts off slowly, introducing you to the character...6 out of 6 found this review helpful.
I wanted to like it more 0
Uncharted looks great, there is no denying that. The story is also decent, and the gun play is functional, so why don't i like it more? Uncharted, for those who don't know, is Gears of War meets Tomb Raider meets Indiana Jones. The influence from Indiana Jones is in the story, and that bit is really well told. Nathan Drake is a great action hero and Nolan North really brings him to life. I also ended up actually liking the obligatory love interest and the villains are suitably evil.

Greatness from small beginnings 0
Naughty Dog has without a doubt been one of the biggest contributors in terms of PlayStation's success. They introduced the world to Crash Bandicoot in the nineties, arguably one of most recognized mascots of the PS1, and made a classic in Jak and Daxter, that is still acknowledged by many as one of the best PS2 games.On November 16, 2007 "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" for the PS3 hit the shelves. It was a completely new chapter for Naughty Dog, not just because it was on a new platform, but also ...2 out of 2 found this review helpful.

The ps3 had a pretty rough start, and it took quite a while for it to get out of the rut it was stuck in.

To be honest, I wasnt really expecting much from this game. I had heard a bit about it before its release, but I wasnt planning on rushing out to get it. I happened to be on PSN, and saw the demo online. I decided just to go ahead and download it, mainly because it was free. I started playing for a bit, and I was seriously impressed. The graphics were stunning, of course, but the detail was incredible - down to Nathan's clothes absorbing the water, before gradually drying out.

Uncharted is a game that you should play at some point 0
By now, the Uncharted series has amassed some serious fame. Uncharted 2, in particular has received critical acclaim for being one of the most exciting and best-looking adventure games in recent years. However, its predecessor, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is definitely worth checking out as well, and if you're wondering why this game is regarded a classic from the PS3's earlier days, I'm about to explain just that.

A very well done, very linear experience 0
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune isn't going to throw anything new at you that you haven't seen in a video game (or a story) before, but the game does have its charms. The gameplay for the most part consists of gun battles and platforming sequences intertwined with each other to keep things interesting. The gun play for the most part is good, the enemies sometimes feel like they can take a bit too much damage and don't really appear to react to getting shot as well as I'd like, but they generally pu...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

Nothing dates a game quicker than its alignment with a fashion trend. Enter the half-tuck, a clothing statement brought to the mainstream by action hero protagonist, Nathan Drake in 2007 for his debut in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (UDF). What exactly is the half-tuck? It's when you tuck in about half of your shirt, starting front and center, and continuing to tuck about 3/4 of the way back on one side. The rest of the shirt hangs loose.

From the studio that brought the world platformers like Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter comes an especially jumpy third person shooter starring Nathan Drake, a youthful Indiana Jones, in an adventure that takes you to a mysterious island in search of Drake's ancestor, the explorer Sir Francis Drake, and the treasure of El Dorado. Along with companions Sully, an older, more gruff version of Nathan Drake with a boatload of gambling debt, and resourceful journalist with a mean right hook, Elena...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
Why I (almost) quit playing Uncharted: Drake's Fortune 0
The recent price drop and new slim PS3 was enough to convince me to round out my collection of current-gen consoles, and of the already-released PS3 exclusives, the game that I was most eager to christen my new system with was Uncharted. I'm of fan of the recent Tomb Raider games because they are the closest things to an Indiana Jones game that I've played, and Uncharted seemed to take what I like about Tomb Raider and combine it with the stop-and-pop gameplay of Gears of War.

The ShortPros- Fantastic voice acting and script- Game is a hybrid of third person shooting and Prince of Persia/Tomb Raider platforming- For a 2007 game, it looks pretty decent- Swashbuckling adventure in the vein of Indiana Jones- Vistas and landscapes are impressive and have a tremendous amount of scopeCons- Shooting is tedious, with bullet-sponge enemies and weird controls killing the pacing- Forced Six-Axis controller moments (tipping controller to stay balanced) are awful- While I like Dra...2 out of 3 found this review helpful.

For almost two years now, I've been refusing to buy Uncharted: Drake's Fortune on account of the game's $70 asking price on the free market. While some of the praise lent to the game by friends of mine tantalized me into making the plunge, I could never bring myself to invest money in the archetypical "next-generation game."

Uncharted tries to be a mix of Tomb Raider with Gears of War shooting mechanics. Nothing wrong with it, since after all shooting was never Tomb Raiders strong point and Gears is pretty good at it. So what could go wrong...The core problem of Uncharted is that it is way more shooter then adventure game. It not only has those shooter sequences like Tomb Raider, but it has pretty much bad guys all over the place. If there are platforms to jump on, you can expect bad guys before that and after that ...0 out of 1 found this review helpful.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is a new game from Naughty Dog, the same studio who developed the Crash Bandicoot series on the original Playstation. A great thing about Uncharted if you're a Crash fan is that you'll notice some mechanics that they implemented in the old games and carried it over to Uncharted. Needlessly to say, Naughty Dog have taken a mature approach to the next generation, and they have done so rather well.

Uncharted: Drakes Fortune Review (PS3) 0
So, this game was supposed to be the first good shooter on the ps3. Something that wasnt just about killing, but had its merits in storytelling as well. Its too bad this game fails on both accounts. First off, as a shooter, this game is a joke. I know most of you would point to the bullet spounging by the enemies, but my biggest issue is with the cover system. I spent the entire game looking past pillars and past things instead of gripping to them. this made shooting enemies much easier f...0 out of 1 found this review helpful.
Duck and Cover 0
In my opinion Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was the Sony triple A title of 2007, which is slightly odd given the relative lack of hype around it from Sony upon its release.The structure of the game is pretty simple, effectively a blend of exploring ruins, a la Tomb Raider, and ducking behind cover and taking out waves of enemies, eg Gears of War.

Directions for making a hit action-adventure game: take one lovable rogue as the main character, a shady, cigar-chomping second-in-command, and an increasingly useful (and attractive) female lead. Mix in some good AI for your NPC friends, a range of weapons, enemies, a third-act twist to rival any game you've ever played, and drop in a legendary golden treasure at the last moment.

The year is 2007.

- Great BrunchLaurDined on 11/23/2014I've been here for dinner before, and it was decent but nothing special. Brunch, however, was delicious. I had the french toast, and even though I'm not usually a huge french toast fan I devoured the whole thing. My friend had Eggs Benedict and said it was delicious as well. I'd definitely come back here for lunch. They were also really good about the fact that we were quite late for our reservation :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

State Police Academy in October of 1974 and have stayed close through meetings such as Thursday's. Of the various venues we've enjoyed, the Fireplace ranks at the top of the list for the quality and preparation of its food. Mushroom soup, roasted vegetable pizza, fresh crisp salads and award winning burgers, each was outstanding and generously portioned. The service was superb, led by Holly our waitress, patient and perfectly paced to deliver our ordered lunches simultaneously, despite a vibrant noon time business. In fact for a group lunch I would suggest reserving a table one or two days ahead.

- Underwhelming, especially for vegetariansNR101Dined on 11/17/2014Despite making a reservation, we were seated in the middle of the floor next to the exit door, which meant we were chilled by a constant draft every few minutes when someone opened the door. There were booths available throughout the dinner, but they didn't let us sit there for some reason. We were kind of cramped and I constantly thought someone was going to bump into the table and knock over my date's wine glass. Food was disappointing to be honest. We were both vegetarian, and of the 2 entrees they had, they'd run out of the pasta dish. Our bisque wasn't hot, our side dish of broccoli came out after we'd finished eating everything else, and the ravioli was tasty if dry, with a pretty small portion. Service was okay - but I won't be back.
- Nice atmosphere, good mealBabfDined on 11/16/2014Our party of four was seated immediately for our early Sunday dinner reservation. We were close enough to the roaring fire to enjoy it, but not so close that it was too warm at our table. The salads, bread, and entrees (especially the chicken) were very good. We split the peanut butter, cookie, ice cream dessert (I can't remember what it was called). It had a pretty strong ginger taste that we didn't expect and we felt that it overpowered the other flavors, so I wouldn't order that again. Right after we ordered the restaurant got busy all at once, and the service got pretty slow. We waited a while for our food, and then waited for a a long time after we were finished. They seemed a bit short-staffed. All-in-all it was a good experience and we'll be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CrowdedNewcomerVIPDined on 11/15/2014Although we enjoyed the food and our waiter was very nice, it was just too crowded for us. We were a party of 5 and because the place is so small, we were squished into a corner. Also, it was so loud that it was hard to carry on a conversation. This is great for a Brookline young group, but for a Birthday celebration with family, it was not the place.Special Features:
- Not as good as I'd heard and hoped.baconDined on 11/15/2014We made reservations for 4 adults at 6:30pm on a Saturday. I called to ask for a table near the fireplace and was told, understandably, that those are reserved for 2-tops...but that our table was upstairs near the window and also a great location. When we arrived, though, we were seated at a table upstairs along the serving line. That was frustrating and really affected our dining experience, as my brother (who absolutely LOVES this place and wanted us to experience and enjoy it) was repeatedly bumped by the servers who had a narrow space to squeeze by each other behind our table. We had no way to request a table change without disturbing other diners, but those tables need to be moved further from the serving line and the servers need to take special care because that is a really annoying feature when you are trying to enjoy your meal and drink wine that spills on you each time you are bumped. As far as the service, it was OK but the server did not know the wine list well and brought the wrong bottle, spilled it when he poured it, etc...but OK. The food was varied -- oyster apps were good, but meat/cheese charcuterie plate was not presented well at all -- everything was mixed on a regular dinner plate, and there was no knife for the hard cheese. I had a delicious bisque and good duck/arugula salad, but my husband's prime rib (requested rare) was overdone (served medium, not even medium rare) which is a shame along such good veggie side dishes. Finally, we all wanted cappuccino for dessert, and the machine was broken. So...all in all, we were looking forward to a special and relaxing meal with my brother and wife who have raved about the place, and they ended up feeling irritated and embarrassed that we spent a rather expensive night out on an experience that was not memorable in a good way.Special Features:
- non-alcoholic cocktailOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/10/2014I ordered the George Washington--homemade ginger beer cocktail. It was fantastic.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/4/2014The food was excellent, the service was better than average but the dishes were a little bit on the expensive side for the amount you got considering you share every dish you get.Special Features:
- Great place.WinniethePooDined on 11/2/2014Best lobster Mac and cheese which is also available gluten free. We are never disappointed in anything we order.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellent food, cozy atmosphereOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/1/2014The food was excellent - very fresh, creative, and well presented. The atmosphere was not stuffy or too formal; it was cozy and inviting.Special Features:
- Great brunchDrariDined on 11/1/2014Great gingerbread waffle and vegetarian hash. My wife had the burger which was supposed to be great and she was underwhelmed. Service was a little slow as they were short staffed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovely experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2002VIPDined on 10/29/2014We have not been to the Fireplace for a long time, since moving to Back Bay Boston, but met friends for dinner and we were very pleased about the service and food. We all had a combination of tacos, squash bisque, salads, and hamburgers. Simple selections, but we thought that everything was prepared just right and the food tasted great.
- Always GoodLuvgoodfoodDined on 10/29/2014The Fireplace is one of those restaurants where I know whatever I order will be delicious. The service, staff and food have always been above the norm and I have never been disappointedSpecial Features:
- Nice menu!OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 10/27/2014A nice selection of seasonal foods and a very nice selection of non-alcoholic drinks. That was an unexpected delight. The atmosphere is refined without being stuffy.Special Features:
- birthdineDined on 10/25/2014Found the service and the food to be exceptional, yet low key and relaxed. The waiter was attentive, yet in the background. The dining experience was intimate, warm and enjoyable. There was no pressure to order the extras; we will definitely return.Special Features:
- Best Brunch AroundBrooklinerVIPDined on 10/25/2014Crab cake benedict and gingerbread cornmeal waffles were outstanding! Best brunch I've had in years -- maybe ever.Special Features:
- ConflictedOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 10/24/2014While the taste of the food was outstanding, the delivery was miserable. A side and 2 main dishes came out, separately. And then it took 10 minutes to get the other 2 dinners. Management made good on our bill, but still wondering why and how often this happens.Special Features:
- Request Table by the Fireplace!shmaiDined on 10/22/2014great neighborhood gem. We shared the cheese plate which had salami to die for. Entrees are reasonably priced. We both ordered the salmon. Shared the seasonal bread pudding which, if you are fan of, was delicious. We wanted cocktails that were not on the menu and the bartender was more than happy to obliged.Special Features:
- Great date night!PracticalPalateDined on 10/16/2014Ok, so for a first date and a first time at this location, I took a bit of a risk...but I really didn't. The food was wonderful, our server (Peter) listened and recommended items wisely. Our opening cocktails were wonderfully made and we settled on a well balanced, drier Zinfandel (Sanctuary) for dinner. We split a pear salad, an autumn-spirited appetizer and an entree dish, with cocktails it ran us just over a C note and it was worth every penny. Thanks Fireplace! And yes, a second date happened afterwards. :-)Special Features:
- Wonderful food, charming ambianceCMF914Dined on 10/11/2014Favorite for our family, we go again and again. The butternut squash soup is outstanding!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- High expectations. Just OKOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 10/11/2014Wanted to try this restaurant for awhile after all the positive reviews. Our experience: house Cocktails were undrinkable served by a slow and unfriendly bartender. Bad start. Food was good. Table service was really slow. I had to ask where our entrees were and had to hunt down our server for dessert/check. dinner for 4 took a little over 3 hours. Overall I was shocked by the poor service. The greeter was VERY friendly and responsive. Everyone else I interacted with seemed to have a poor attitude. Like they were going through the motions and not even trying to be hospitable. For that reason, we will not be returning.
- A nice surprise10YearsPluswithOTVIPDined on 10/10/2014In looking for dining options between Jamaica Plain and Waltham--this was a gamble that paid off. The food was very good, the service impeccable, and the noise level--even with a couple of young families dining nearby--was low enough for easy conversation. My only "complaint" is the totally West Coast wine list. However, I was offered a "flight" of 3 wines for me to choose from and they have a delicious dry rose, so overall a success! The light Pinot Noir was also tasty.Special Features:
- Always a good mealWashingtonSquareLocalDined on 10/7/2014We came here for an early dinner with our two little kids (3 & 5). The wait staff was great and very thoughtful. The food was good too, but as a local I come here a bit and it always is.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good for brunchmisspigDined on 10/5/2014The food here is very good and the place is very popular on weekends. Waffles are exceptional. One person in our party ordered an omelette which was extremely salty and the restaurant made her a fresh one.Special Features:
- A reliable local restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/4/2014We have dined here many times and have enjoyed each visit. It's not for special occasions but pleasant none the less. The food is consistently good quality. The service is very good.I would recommend this to a friend.
- delicious and fantastic environmentlexalovesgoodfoodDined on 10/4/2014The fireplace has all the amazing food you would expect at a super classy upscale restaraunt, with a welcoming warm personality. The food was delicious and the service was great! All around it was a fabulous experience and I can't wait to go back next time I visit Boston! They were very accomadating - I had called explaining that we would be late for our reservation and they had no problem and sat us almost immediately when we arrived. Although I think they could use a hostess stand or a greeter at the door.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing delicious and high qualityGirlsNightDined on 10/2/2014Over all an amazing experience .. I love that all the ingredients they work with and service are local farms. Delicious food and reasonable prices. I will definitely be returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Evening4forfoodingDined on 9/27/2014Good food and service. All of of our party enjoyed their food, and wine recommendations were right on.Special Features:
- Always Top Notch!DebrisVIPDined on 9/27/2014We are so happy the Fireplace is staying open! Thank You! The Saturday brunch was perfect. Challah French toast with fruit is special.House special cocktails are great! Terrific server too! Xoxoxoxo! Xoxoxoxo!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food, bad nightOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/26/2014We were seated 40 minutes after our reservation. During that wait in a crowded space, we could not even order drinks at the bar. The bartender was rude "I've seen you there for 20 minutes, I will get to you when I can." Which he never did. The food was very good and the service was fine once seated. They were not equipped to handle the volume.
- Downhill slidefoodfan1Dined on 9/25/2014We have loved this spot and took friends for the first time. Were surprised at how quality had slipped. Peaches in salad old and tasteless, service almost neglectful as we waited for wine...maybe now that they've committed to staying open, they need to inject new energy and confidence into their presentation/menu, etc.Special Features:
- Consistently WonderfulLuvgoodfoodDined on 9/22/2014This restaurant has been consistently good since it opened. Great ambiance, great food, an expansive menu with something for everyone, it remains one of my favorites. Also, the owner is generous and charitable, often donating time and staff to non-profits.Special Features:
- HumphreyDined on 9/21/2014THE BRUNCH MENU WAS OK BUT NOT THAT GOOD FOR VEGANSSpecial Features:
- Cheese platecheeseDined on 9/19/2014We ordered a cheese plate as one of two appetizers but w/no cheese, just the sausage. Very good, though very skimpy on the sausage (4 thin slices) and heavy on the condiments. For dessert, we ordered a cheese plate with just one cheese-- again, a VERY small piece of cheese and again piles of the same condiments. Not fair.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Neighborhood gemhappy2bhereDined on 9/14/2014We were a party of 6 stayed the night in Brookline and was looking for a great Brunch place within walking distance to our B&B, we hit the jackpot with The Fireplace! Reservations necessary, which I made on Open Table the night before. The service and food were fantastic. Wonderful find! Would definately return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingLDRBVIPDined on 9/13/2014Everyone kept telling us we had to try the Fireplace. So we did and We were very disappointed. It was impossible to talk to each other because it was so loud, I questioned the cleanliness because my cutlery AND bread dish were dirty, the waiter was slow and not very personable - felt like he just wanted us to eat and go- could have cared less about us. The wine list is limited to wines just from CA (at least have a few good ones if you're going to do that!,) The food however was outstanding! If they focus on customer service and promise to wash their dishes- we may go back....but not for quite a while.Special Features:
- less impressed than previous visitsLauraDined on 9/13/2014My husband and I went for our anniversary. I noted this in my Open Table reservation and asked for the best table possible but I don't think this was acknowledged as we were seated near the entrance in a high traffic area. We have been here many times and wanted to go one last time before it closes. The appetizers and entrees we ordered were delicious (cheese plate, figs, signature roasted chicken and sea scallops). Cocktails were very good as well, but I had left my ID in the car, and the waiter required that my husband go out in the rain to go get it. I know there are rules but there should have also been a balance with customer service. My dessert (blondie sundae) was dry and disappointing, but my husband's chocolate fudge cake was good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not a fun outingOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/13/2014My husband and I showed up at the exact time of our reservation. The hostess showed us to a table three steps from the door and in the traffic for everyone entering and exiting the restaurant. When we asked for a different table, we were told that we should have requested a specific table went we reserved. We were told nothing else was available, so we left. As we left, we could see that there were indeed a couple of tables free by the windows. We will not return.

A group of Charlottesville leaders gathered Thursday to talk about the way the city will look in the future.
The City Council along with the Planning Commission and the Architectural Review Board discussed zoning and transportation issues along with the future look of the Downtown Mall. While no changes were implemented, all involved said that the working relationship between the groups will move the City forward.
"It's vitally important...This envisions what the City of Charlottesville will become...and working collaboratively is the most important thing we can do together," said Planning Commissioner Jon Fink.
The three groups hope to meet quarterly to move the City towards rewriting the comprehensive plan. That process takes place every five years.

All new F-150
*Preproduction model shown. Available late 2014.
The all-new 2015 F-150 is a giant leap forward in truck technology. Why are we introducing it now?
Because now and in the coming years, your truck will have to be stronger, more productive and more efficient, because the jobs keep getting harder and gas prices are rising. So we turned to high-strength, military-grade,* aluminum alloy for our body and bed. We developed new technologies. We rethought conventional assumptions and charted the future of tough. As always, we did what was right, not what was easy. Which is why the all-new F-150 is designed to deliver more towing and hauling capability than the previous generation. That's real-world capability. That's why we own work.
The F-150's legendary ability to work still depends on a steel backbone.
Our military-grade* aluminum alloy has earned the Built Ford Tough® badge.
Our new, fully-boxed high-strength steel frame is stronger and more rigid than ever with eight cross sections. Roll forming allows us to tailor the gauge of the steel in specific sections of the frame in order to maximize strength as necessary.
From its fully boxed, high-strength-steel frame to the use of high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloys* in its body and bed, this F-150 takes tough to a whole new level. Weighing in as much as 700 lbs. less than its predecessor helps make this truck a whole lot more capable and more effective too. Plus, it accelerates, brakes and resists corrosion like never before. In addition, we standardized the chemistry of the aluminum alloy used in the construction of the 2015 F-150 body and bed to facilitate recycling. Our aluminum scrap can be reclaimed and sent back into the manufacturing process to minimize waste.
La capacité au travail légendaire du F-150 repose encore sur une échine en acier.
Notre alliage de niveau militaire mérite la plaque du Dur de dur Ford.
Notre nouvelle structure en acier des plus résistants est plus solide et plus rigide qu'auparavant grâce à la présence de sections plus grandes. Le profilage nous permet d'adapter la résistance de l'acier de certaines sections de la structure pour maximiser la solidité si nécessaire.
De sa carrosserie en acier des plus résistant à l'utilisation d'un alliage en aluminium de niveau militaire F-150 donne au mot « dur » un tout autre sens. Pesant près de 700 lbs de moins que les modèles précédents, cela aide le camion a travailler de façon plus intelligente.
De plus, il accélère, freine et résiste à l'érosion mieux que jamais. Aussi, afin de faciliter le recyclage, nous avons uniformisé la composition chimique de l'alliage en aluminium utilisé pour la construction de la carrosserie et du plateau du F-150 2015. Nos déchets en aluminium peuvent être réutilisés dans le processus de construction pour minimiser les pertes.
The F-150 badge isn't just given. It has to be earned.

PAYLOADTrusted eight-cylinder power that delivers a best-in-class payload rating of 3,300 lbs., over a half ton more than its nearest competitor. Performance made possible by 385 horsepower and 387 lb.-ft. of torque. Yet it's surprisingly efficient.

my daughter is into palm tree I thought I would do the spare bedroom for her. Very pleased with my purchase.
I bought it because I love palm trees and the "tropical" look
I did not like the color. It wasn't as vivid as it shows online. It was more of a military green. The quality was good. I had no problem with that.
Great design-wonderful cotton quality! Very pleased.
Bought two queen size quiltswith one euro sham for each with two toss pillows one for each. Satisified with product what I expected.

Diploma Mills:
Diploma Mills Are Easily Created and Some Have Issued Bogus Degrees to Federal Employees at Government Expense

This testimony discusses work done by GAO's Office of Special Investigations (OSI) related to degrees from "diploma mills." For purposes of this overview, we defined "diploma mills" as nontraditional, unaccredited, postsecondary schools that offer degrees for a relatively low flat fee, promote the award of academic credits based on life experience, and do not require any classroom instruction. Over the past 3 years, OSI has purchased degrees from a diploma mill through the Internet, created a diploma mill in the form of a fictitious foreign school, investigated whether the federal government has paid for degrees from diploma mills for federal employees, and determined whether high-level federal employees at certain agencies have degrees from diploma mills. This testimony summarizes our investigative findings.

text: Jack Lew Tries, Fails to Rewrite Debt Ceiling History Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 28 Jul 2013 post a comment Secretary of the Treasury Jack Lew doesn't exactly have the best reputation for honesty, having misled Congress about President Barack Obama's debts, and having claimed--falsely--that Obama's budgets were stalled in the Senate because of a Republican filibuster threat. On Sunday, Lew tried again on NBC News' Meet the Press--this time claiming the GOP had threatened default during the 2011 debt ceiling talks. Republicans did not threaten default. A handful of conservative Republicans--notably, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN)--suggested that hitting the debt ceiling would be acceptable because it would not mean the U.S. would have to default, i.e. that the Treasury could meet the government's obligations while holding back some discretionary spending. Regardless, that view was never the majority or official bargaining position. As Lew well knows, the sticking point during the 2011 negotiations was the president's insistence on tax hikes. He scuttled a "grand bargain" on deficit reduction by demanding $400 billion in tax hikes at the last moment, leading to the Budget Control Act, which included the sequester (about which the Obama White House has never ceased to complain, but which was its own idea, and which is helping decrease the deficit.) Lew was such a bad actor during those talks that Republicans specifically asked the White House to exclude him from negotiations. "I don't need somebody who just knows how to say no," Speaker of the House John Boehner said. Breitbart News' Mike Flynn predicted in January that Lew's nomination was a sign that the White House would refuse to compromise with Republicans. Indeed Lew refuses even to negotiate. The Obama administration is once again trying to force through tax hikes and spending increases by accusing Republicans, preemptively, of wishing the country to go into default. It has repeatedly rejected Republican attempts to ensure that debt ceiling talks do not have that consequence. So it is Obama, and Lew, who are actually using default as a threat. Lew's failed attempt at rewriting history is clearly part of that strategy.

Rose: Doctor, they've got guns.The episode begins with a voice-over of Rose recounting that nothing happened the first nineteen years of her life, but that it changed when she met the Doctor, with whom she thought she'd travel forever. She then talks about ghosts, Torchwood and the war, and says that the story she is telling is of how she died.The TARDIS shows up in a park near Jackie's flat so that Rose can visit her mother and do some laundry (apparently the TARDIS lacks a washing machine). Jackie greets them and asks if they want to stay and see her visiting father, which confuses and concerns Rose, as her grandfather died when she was ten. An insubstantial grey "ghost" appears and Jackie introduces it to Rose and the Doctor. The concerned Doctor finds out from watching television that this is happening all over the world, and with Rose and an unwilling Jackie in tow quickly traces the source of the "ghosts" to a building that houses the Torchwood Institute, a secret British government organization with a mandate of protecting the United Kingdom and Earth at any cost (originally conceived by Queen Victoria after her encounter with the Doctor in 1879).It is Torchwood who are causing the "ghost shift" as they try to tap into a source of extra-dimensional energy. They also show the Doctor a mysterious globe that he informs them is a "void ship", a craft designed to travel the non-existent space between parallel dimensions. The Doctor tells the head of Torchwood, Yvonne Hartman, that the void ship's entry into the Earth dimension damaged the barrier between universes, and that each time they activate a ghost shift, they are damaging it further, which will eventually cause the barrier to collapse. She reluctantly agrees to delay the next ghost shift, but several technicians have been taken over by Cybermen from the parallel universe of "Rise of the Cybermen"/"The Age of Steel" and activate it anyway.This brings some 5,000,000 Cybermen across the dimensional gap all over the world, even inside Torchwood, where they begin changing the operatives, including Yvonne, into Cybermen. In the void ship room Rose meets Mickey, who has also crossed the dimensions, and they watch as the void ship begins to open. Mickey tells Rose that the Cybermen left their original dimension some time ago, then hoists a weapon designed to kill them, only to stare in disbelief with Rose as four Daleks emerge from the void ship.
The Doctor: And I haven't. Which makes me the better person, don't you think? They can shoot me dead, but the moral high ground is mine.
Dalek Sec: Location: Earth. Life-forms detected! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!

The courtroom can be an intimidating place for all of us, even confident adults. The drama of fictional trials has been played out on many popular television shows and movies, not all of which are very realistic. Imagine the paralyzing fear felt by 11 year-old Carli* who was standing in a real court room in downtown Austin. Carli was a participant in the Center's Court Orientation program, which helps children prepare for testifying in the criminal case they have become involved in as a result of their victimization. Carli was sexually abused by a male relative whom she loved and trusted when she was ten.
Even though Carli had her mother by her side in the front row of the gallery during the introductory portion, she was unable to utter a single word for the first ten minutes of Court Orientation. When asked what her name was, she remained silent. When asked how old she was, she again remained silent. Finally, with some gentle coaxing from her mother, Carli began responding with single word answers. At this rate, Carli was not going to be able to withstand the pressure of speaking from the witness stand, much less testifying in open court while facing her alleged abuser. Center staff and volunteers who provide Court Orientation were determined to create an environment that would make Carli feel safe enough to participate.
The forensic interviewer leading Court Orientation that night took some of the pressure off of Carli by volunteering to go first. He had the District Attorney ask him questions about his day, and he modeled for Carli how answering those questions from the witness stand didn't have to be so scary. Eventually, Carli felt ready to enter the witness stand all by herself. She impressed everyone that night when her meek little voice became bolder and more assertive as she continued answering questions into the microphone. After the questioning was over, Carli smiled and said that it wasn't as bad as she thought it would be.
The team of professionals and volunteers who work with abused children every day at the Center for Child Protection are committed to each and every individual child who needs their help. Although Carli was terrified of the courtroom at first, Court Orientation has empowered her to be able to testify against her alleged abuser.
*names and identifying circumstances have been modified to protect the privacy of children and families.
