National League Game Summary - San Diego at San Francisco
(Tuesday, April 29th)
Final Score: San Francisco 6, San Diego 0
San Francisco, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Yusmeiro Petit pitched six scoreless innings as the San Francisco Giants blanked the San Diego Padres, 6-0, in the second matchup of a three-game set.
Petit (2-1), who made a spot start for Matt Cain, allowed three hits and struck out four to earn the win. Cain was scratched from his scheduled start after cutting his right index finger.
"Tonight he saved us," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said of Petit. "He used both sides of the plate well and it was fun to watch. To get six innings is always big."
Hector Sanchez had three RBI, while Angel Pagan and Buster Posey both homered in the win. San Francisco has won five of its last six games.
Eric Stults (1-3) took the loss for San Diego after allowing five runs on seven hits with two walks and a strikeout over 2 2/3 innings. The Padres had their two-game winning streak snapped in the setback.
Pagan and Posey belted solo homers around a Hunter Pence groundout in the first inning to stake the hosts to an early lead.
The Giants loaded the bases in the third and Michael Morse grounded into a double play to keep it a two-run game.
Stults then intentionally walked Pablo Sandoval and Sanchez followed with a two-run single to center for a 4-0 lead.
Brandon Crawford laced a single to left that scored Sandoval and helped the Giants to a five-run advantage.
Petit didn't allow a hit until Everth Cabrera knocked a single into center to lead off the fourth inning.
Sanchez added a sacifice fly to left in the fifth to account for the final margin.
Game Notes
The Padres were 0-for-2 with runners in scoring position and left just two runners on base ... Reliever Donn Roach collected a double, his first professional hit, in the sixth for San Diego ... Time of game: 2:28.

Court junks rehab plea of Uniwide affiliate
popular .
MANILA, Philippines—A company affiliated with debt-strapped Uniwide Group of Companies lost its bid for a court-assisted corporate rehabilitation and was cited for "forum shopping," in view of a similar case lodged in the Securities and Exchange Commission in 1999.
Forum shopping refers to the filing of multiple suits involving the same parties and the same cause of action, either simultaneously or successively, to obtain favorable judgment.
The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Uniwide group's decade-long corporate rehabilitation a failure in 2010, placing it in the brink of dissolution and liquidation.
In a resolution dated March 8, the Regional Trial Court of Las Piñas junked a petition for corporate rehabilitation filed by the Uniwide Sales Realty and Resources Corp. (USRRC), which would have given the firm debt relief and protection from creditors running after its assets.
Although USRRC had indicated in its court petition several cases filed by its parent company in the SEC and the withdrawal of the rehabilitation petition, the court noted that the company did not mention that the rehab plea was junked by the SEC hearing panel and that the case was on appeal. What the company was apparently withdrawing was the appeal for reconsideration of the SEC decision.
A mere motion to withdraw, without the approval of the SEC, will not exempt petitioner from any ruling that the corporate regulator makes on the issue, said the RTC ruling penned by presiding judge Salvador Timbang Jr.
"With the act of forum shopping committed by the petitioner and with the non-inclusion of certain facts and events in this petition as mentioned above, this court is constrained to believe that the herein petition was filed only to delay the enforcement by the creditors of their rights," Timbang said in the five-page ruling.
Based on audited financial statements as of end-2011, USRRC had total assets of P965 million while liabilities stood at P3.47 billion. An appraisal report given by Cuervo Appraisers pegged the total market value of its properties at P2.53 billion.
The company's receiver, Rogelio Bondoc Jr., had recommended that the rehabilitation be considered, saying it could be made feasible through "the redevelopment of the assets of the petitioner, in particular the Metromall property."
The receiver also noted that the claims of creditors Philippine National Bank and Grandholdings Investments (a special purpose vehicle that inherited the claims of Allied Banking Corp.) had amounted to P1.19 billion, suggesting that Uniwide would still be left with something after paying these creditors since the market value of the properties was higher at P2.53 billion.
Both PNB and Grandholdings, however, were opposing the petition for corporate rehabilitation, noting that USRRC had a pending appeal with the SEC en banc on the SEC hearing panel's termination of rehabilitation proceedings.
PNB has a claim of P4.08 billion (as of February 2010) from Uniwide while Grandholdings' claim is worth P3.03 billion (as of December 2012).
For its part, PNB said the P750-million loan it extended to the Gows' Uniwide Holdings Inc. was secured by a property under the name of petitioner USRRC. The bank had also opposed the appointment of Bondoc as the company's receiver.
In 2010, the SEC hearing panel denied the Uniwide group's petition to make further changes to the rehabilitation plan, which was being opposed by the majority of its creditors. "Their story is no different from other overreaching business empires which ran up ruinous debts that must one day be paid," the report from the SEC hearing panel had said.
The PSE then suspended the trading of Uniwide Holdings.
The SEC hearing panel had junked the Uniwide group's rehabilitation plan.

Opposition says riot-hit people are languishing in camps
Senior leaders of the Samajwadi Party, including party supremo Mulayam Singh and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, are actively participating in the Saifai Mahotsav, an annual function held in their ancestral village in Etawah. On Sunday, party MP Ram Gopal Yadav attended the carnival as chief guest at a children's event.
The timing of the 14-day carnival has raised eyebrows, coming as it does at a time when hundreds of riot-affected people are languishing in relief camps in Muzaffarnagar and Shamli districts in poor conditions in biting cold. The State government recently admitted that 34 children died in the camps due to cold.
Opposition parties have lashed out at the SP for its "insensitivity". BJP State president Laxmikant Bajpai said the SP's acts were shameful as it was engaged in raag-rang (frolic) even as the riot-affected persons lived in misery.
"[Ram Manohar] Lohia wouldn't have been able to bear this kind of socialism. What is the compulsion for hosting the grand event," Mr. Bajpai asked.
Inmates scared: Lalu
Rashtriya Janata Dal supremo Lalu Prasad, who visited the relief camps in Muzaffarnagar and met the victims, told The Hindu that the inmates were living in "distress" and were "scared" to return home; their only plea was to get a safe place to shift.
Speaking to the camp inmates, Mr. Prasad, who is out on bail after his conviction in the fodder scam, said: "Ever since [Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra] Modi's close aide Amit Shah came to Uttar Pradesh, there have been efforts to communalise the atmosphere. In Bihar and Uttar Pradesh fascist forces led by Modi are trying to communalise things. We need to curb it together, not be slack."
Mr. Prasad said he spoke to Mr. Akhilesh Yadav and asked him to "take steps to ensure the well-being of the riot victims."
Old tradition: CM
Defending the event, Mr. Akhilesh Yadav said it was a "decade-old Samajwadi Party tradition." Mr. Ram Gopal said the mahotsav was conceptualised to revive local culture and fight western influence.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
Suppose the following: Title to a home is held by Trust A. The beneficiaries of Trust A are three natural persons and Trust B. Trust B holds a 25% beneficial interest in Trust A. The sole beneficiaries of Trust B are Mom and Dad, who occupy the home as a principal residence. None of the three natural person beneficiaries of Trust A (the kids) occupies or intends to occupy the home as a principal residence. No valid declaration of homestead has been recorded. Is homestead protection afforded the beneficiaries of Trust B? If so, what is the amount of the exemption? Bankruptcy Court says Mom and Dad have an aggregate homestead exemption in the amount of $31,250 (25% of the automatic homestead amount of $125,000). In re: VanBuskirk, Joseph C., et al., United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Massachusetts, Central Division, Chapter 7 Case No. 13-41947-MSH (Lawyers Weekly No. 04-036-14), Memorandum of Decision on the Trustee's Objection to Exemption (May 20, 2014).
The current homestead statute, M.G.L.c. 188, referred to by the Court as "a statute of teeth-cracking complexity", became effective in 2011. Among other things, it creates the automatic exemption of $125,000 and extends homestead protection to certain trust beneficiaries. The Court saw no indication in the statute of an intent to limit homestead protection to beneficiaries of a trust that holds title to the home and exclude from homestead protection people who are beneficiaries of a trust that itself is a beneficiary of the trust that holds title to the home. Rather the Court found in the statute a suggestion to the contrary. Furthermore, public policy encourages a liberal interpretation of the homestead statute.
Why only $31,250 instead of $125,000? As the kids did not occupy or intend to occupy the home as a principal residence, they had no right to claim a homestead estate in the home. Nevertheless they were part owners, and the statute allocates the automatic homestead exemption among all trust beneficiary owners in proportion to their respective ownership interests, not on the basis of occupancy of the home. Allocation is one thing. The right to assert the exemption is another. And so the allocations to the three kids, aggregating $93,750 of the $125,000 automatic homestead amount, "remain unused and unavailable." They do not "spill over" to augment Mom and Dad's allocation.
If, after the current version of the homestead statute became effective, Mom and Dad each had declared a homestead for elderly or disabled persons pursuant to Section 2 of Chapter 188 (assuming they were each at least 62 years of age or disabled within the meaning of Chapter 188), each of Mom and Dad would have been entitled to an exemption of $500,000. There is no reduction, proration or allocation among other owners of the home of the exemption to which each elderly or disabled owner is entitled pursuant to Section 2.
There would appear to be no reason why the result in VanBuskirk would have been any different if the downstream trust had been more than one step away from the title holding trust. For example, had Mom and Dad been the sole beneficiaries of a third trust that was itself the sole beneficiary of Trust B, presumably the result would have been the same.
Further, there would appear to be no reason why the "no spill-over" rule would not apply to homestead declarations made by trust beneficiaries or tenants in common pursuant to Section 3 of Chapter 188 (the "regular" homestead exemption). If a Section 3 homestead had been declared for each of Mom and Dad, presumably Mom and Dad would have been found entitled to an aggregate homestead exemption of $125,000 (25% of $500,000), based on their aggregate percentage ownership interest.
A final note: A bankruptcy court's interpretation of a state statute is a prediction of how the statute would be interpreted by the state's highest court. The bankruptcy court's interpretation is not binding on the state's courts, but is likely to be persuasive.

Goulburn Murray wins first Bendigo Country Week division one title
Player of the week Liam Gwynne led Goulburn Murray Cricket to a comfortable title win in Bendigo.GEORDIE COWAN January 27, 2014 4:45am
Goulburn Murray Cricket found some form of redemption on Friday when it claimed the Bendigo Country Week division one title at Bendigo's Queen Elizabeth Oval.
After winning all the round-robin games only to fall in the final last year, Goulburn Murray romped to a nine-wicket win against last year's premier Ferntree Gully.
The Colts team came perilously close to making it a clean sweep for the association, but division two opponent Emu Valley reached the target in the final over with two wickets in hand.
The ease in which the division one team secured the Neil Pollock memorial shield was reflective of the manner it had played out the week, winning the first three games by comfortable margins before its only loss on Thursday.
Captain Michael Hill said it was 'fantastic' to win the title after what happened last year, even though he, Dylan Cuttriss and Adam Ward were the only players to feature in both years.
The team benefited from having three colts players come up to the team, Cameron Taylor coaching and having English players Liam Gwynne and Joe Taylor.
Man of the match Gwynne scored 75 not out, appropriately guiding the team to victory after a superb week in which he scored 489 runs at better than a run a ball.
He was at the crease with an aggressive Ward (53 not out) when the winning runs were struck on the last delivery of the 30th over.
Ward dominated the scoring in the 82-run partnership, hitting the ball crisply, with an especially notable straight drive bringing him close to his half-century.
Gwynne and Taylor (28) had put on 79 runs for the first wicket, having to negate a difficult period from opening bowlers Cameron Wheeler and Martin Weightman, playing at and missing a few deliveries.
Earlier, after rain delayed the start of play by more than an hour, Goulburn Murray bowled first in the reduced 40-over match.
Rochester United duo Liam Ringin and Cuttriss opened the bowling and set the tone for the restrictive nature of the bowling.
Both claimed wickets in their spells, with Cuttriss (1/33) bowling straight through to drinks at the 20-over mark, with the score at 3/68.
By that stage Ward had claimed his first wicket and he continued on after the break in conjunction with Keith Chalmers (0/38).
Just as Ferntree Gully was looking to accelerate, Ward (2/48) broke through to bowl the dangerous looking Jayden Bradbury (48).
Nick Bogar (42 not out), who is the reigning best and fairest winner for Ferntree Gully, then combined with Weightman (28) for a 51-run partnership.
Ringin (3/33) found a bit of spice in the pitch to cause some discomfort for both Nottinghamshire seconds player Weightman and Daniel Beyer, before striking twice in the second-last over as the batting team finished on 7/160.
The total could have been more, except for some excellent work on the boundary, with the fielders saving many runs.
Goulburn Murray made use of the 13 players in the team, rotating fielders on and off throughout the innings.
The bowlers did a terrific job to restrict Ferntree Gully to 160 after gauging 200 to be a par score, Hill said.
The captain said leading a country week team for the first time was challenging at times but overall a great experience.
''It was a learning curve at times, but having Dylan Cuttriss and Adam Ward and guys like that to bounce ideas off and use is obviously really good,'' Hill said.
''Having Cameron Taylor as coach just adds that extra part and (you) know you're not alone out there.
''It was great to get the win and hopefully we can go up to Melbourne (Country Week) now and do the same thing.''
■ The team suffered its only loss for the week on Thursday, falling 24 runs short of Murray Valley.
The unwelcome incident of the day came when Murray Valley batsman Daniel Vihm had an epileptic fit while batting, forcing him to retire hurt.
Cuttriss led the way for Goulburn Murray, taking 5/59 from 17.3 overs, with Hill (2/21) and Grant Wachter (1/57) the other wicket-takers as the opposition scored 230.
Playing at Bell Oval, Goulburn Murray started well in its reply with Gwynne and Taylor putting on 68 runs for the first wicket.
Once spinner Liam Evans removed Gwynne for 29, however, the middle-order wickets fell at a regular rate.
Taylor finished with 68, following on from his 97 on Wednesday and at 7/130, it appeared a heavy loss was in order.
Cuttriss (52), however, led a lower-order fightback for the team with Jake Toll (19) before being bowled out for 206.
Evans finished with 7/63 from 18 overs, while Ashley Quinn took 2/91 from 22 overs.

Birds Glad Cats Eat Rats
A rare
burrowing bird known as a
Cook's petrel
seems to have dug a real hole for itself: it lives on a small
island crawling with hungry rats and cats.
Although the pests eat
both eggs and chicks, new research suggests that the old adage "my enemy's
enemy is my friend" holds true for the petrel, native to New Zealand's Little Barrier Island.
we found was that this little seabird did better when both cats and rats were
on the island, rather than just rats," said Matt Rayner, a conservation
ecologist at the University of Auckland. When the non-native cats were voted
off the island with traps and poison, three times as many chicks perished than
with both predators around.
really shows the not-so-pretty, unforeseen consequences of trying to restore an
ecosystem to the way it was," Rayner said.
Rayner and
his colleagues' study of the island's delicate food web is detailed in today's
early edition of the journal
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
A three-species
Little Barrier Island, situated off of New Zealand's northern coast, is about half of the size of New York City's Manhattan Island.
threatened Cook's petrel, a seagull-like bird, burrows small tunnels in the volcanic
soil there and
lays just one egg each mating season.
little guys evolved without any sort of predation, so their clutch size is as
small as it gets," Rayner said. He explained that English settlers likely
dropped off domestic
cats on the island in the 18th century, while small Pacific rats likely
have lived there
for close to 500 years.
documented the survival of chicks on the island from 2004 through 2007, combining
the data with other
information collected over the years.
Starting in 1970, when both cats and
rats roamed the island, scientists took note of petrel chick survival. About one in three petrel chicks
made it to adulthood,
but eradication of the cats in 1980 caused chick survival to
plummet to less than one in 10—a finding that initially seemed strange.
think the cats had policed
the unruly rat population, lightening the predatory load on the petrels because
rats served as a tasty alternative. In turn, the numbers of enemy
rats were kept in check. Eradication of the rodents in 2004, however
(effectively booting both of the petrel's new enemies off the island) boosted
chick survival to roughly three in five.
The results
seemed to lose ground at lower, subtropical altitudes where lizards, owls and
other predators join the hunt for Cook's petrels.
"It is
… puzzling that Pacific rats had such a small impact on Cook's petrel eggs and
chicks at low altitudes, yet were so devastating at higher altitudes," the
authors said in their study. Rayner noted that this finding really spells out
the sensitivity of island ecosystems—especially as they get larger.
"Islands like these are natural storehouses of diversity we need to protect," he said.
"The larger the island, though, the tougher it is to control. You have so
many different habitats to consider when attempting to manage a threatened

Little Barrier Island isn't the only island out there with threatened
species that need rescue from mankind's follies, but cautioned that each

need to develop ways to account for the incredible number of variables on an
island ecosystem before we start tampering with it," he said. "It's
not easy, but it is absolutely necessary."

For entrepreneurs who want to set up shop online, finding inventory is one of the most important things to consider. If you choose to buy your merchandise from a wholesaler, you have to pay for it upfront, find storage space, and pack and ship all of your own orders.
By using a dropshipper, you do not pay for an item until after it sells, and the dropshipping company will pack and ship the item directly to your buyer. Essentially, dropshippers save you time and eliminate risk. Our top three picks for the best dropshipping companies are Doba, Inventory Source and Wholesale 2b. To learn more you can read our articles on dropshippers.
The best dropshippers offer inventory management features that include data and photo export features, low-inventory alerts and product order tracking. The most impressive services offer market research tools to help you choose the best products to sell. Dropshipping companies charge different fees for plans with extra features, so make sure you find a service that fits your individual selling needs. We used the following criteria to rank the top dropshipping services.
Inventory Management
Many dropshipping companies offer a large selection of products, from apparel and clothing to electronics and home entertainment. Look for dropshippers that offer a good mix of name brand products and niche products so you can reach a wide audience.
Data export features are key items to consider. Some services offer eBay data export that allows you to upload products directly to your store with just a few button clicks, eliminating the need to copy and paste images or type product descriptions. Many services include data export tools for Amazon and private websites as well, saving you valuable time.
In addition to export features, a low-inventory notification contributes to the functionality of a service. This tool tells you when a product listed in your store is getting close to selling out. Without it, your customers may buy products that are no longer available, resulting in unhappy customers and extra work for you.
Costs & Fees
You would be wise to read the fine print before signing with a dropshipper. Be aware, that some dropshipping companies charge a fee for every order. This is in addition to your monthly membership fee.
Sometimes customers change their minds, so you should know your dropshipping company's return policy. If a customer decides to send an item back, you could be charged a 20 percent restocking fee.
Selling Options & Tools
Our favorite dropshippers offer at least three different selling plans. Plans are specific to where you sell, such as Amazon, eBay or your own eCommerce website. You can save money if you choose to upload products manually rather than signing up for data management features.
We looked for services that provide sales and marketing tools. Many companies give you a list of the hottest-selling items and graphs to report selling trends. We like services that offer tutorials on eCommerce selling and how to avoid some of the most common pitfalls of the business.
From apparel and clothing to car parts, there are many types of products to sell. The larger a dropshipper's product catalog, the more interesting and popular items you have to sell.
Help & Support
Whether you are an expert or new, you will need support. Tutorials, FAQs and blogs will be helpful as you learn to navigate a dropshipping site. Phone service and live chat are important support options for receiving a quick response.
Dropshipping businesses are affordable and efficient. They are a great option for making a profit selling online, without taking a lot of financial risk. These companies even offer personalization features and tools so you can keep track of your sales.

|Maryland RB Brown charged with assaulting officer
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 05 July 2013 12:29
University police spokesman Sgt. Aaron Davis says Brown was arrested Wednesday after an officer tried to question him in College Park in connection with a crime in Baltimore. Davis did not have information about that investigation, and Baltimore police didn't immediately return a call seeking comment Friday.
Davis says Brown assaulted an officer who tried to question him, ran away and secretly recorded their conversation with a smartphone he concealed in his pocket.
The athletics department says it's ``extremely concerned'' and that Brown has been suspended. Brown was the Terrapins' second-leading rusher last season, finishing with 382 yards on 90 carries.

PR Students Gain Real-World Experience in National Bateman Case Study CompetitionPosted Feb. 28, 2014
By Kelli Fitzpatrick
Bateman. For public relations students, that single word represents months of extensive research, creativity, active campaigning and a bit of apprehension. For PR professionals nationwide, it means a real-world experience that, on a resume, enhances a student's employability.
The Bateman Case Study Competition is a national contest hosted by the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). Kent State has competed in this national competition since 2007. In 2013, a Kent State team ranked second in the nation – topping 66 college teams from across the country – in the Bateman Competition.
Although the Bateman Competition is a three -credit spring semester class, the process actually began at the start of the academic year.
Early in the fall 2013 semester, the PR faculty at JMC invited 10 PR majors to participate in this year's competition. Students apply classroom education and internship experiences to creating and implementing a public relations campaign. The junior and senior students are hard at work representing this semester's client, Popmoney, a personal payment service of Fiserv, Inc.
Students began research in the fall and prepared their campaigns for the end of January. They carried out their plans throughout February, and will evaluate the results of their work in March.
Each Bateman Competition team must submit a casebook to PRSSA by March 28. Teams compile a client overview, research findings, goals and objectives, strategies and tactics, campaign theme, evaluation, key messages and pictures of their work. Evaluation includes the students' reviewing and analyzing the effectiveness of their campaigns in February.
"The evaluation is really important because that's what they need to do once they get into the real world," says Tim Roberts, JMC professor and Bateman Competition adviser. "The implementation part is where you have to think on your feet."
The Bateman students are divided into Blue and Gold teams. The Blue team includes Sydney Baltrusaitis, Morgan Jupina, Michael Lopick, Helen Steward and Samantha Tuly. The Gold team includes Meghan Caprez, Marcus Donaldson, Hannah Hamner, Julie Myers and Abby Prulhiere. Each team aims to raise awareness and usage of Popmoney among adults ages 18 to 24.
The Bateman Blue team's campaign centers on a lollipop theme. The students passed out candy bags on Valentine's Day and created large lollipop displays to raise awareness of Popmoney. They also walked around campus to hand out fliers and talk with students about their client.
"It gives that advantage of face-to-face communication," says junior Morgan Jupina. "We're there to answer the questions they have, and it generates more interest in the company."
Each team has a budget of $300 and $1,000 for printed materials. The ambitious timeline and strict deadlines create a time-consuming experience, which Jupina says has been the students' biggest challenge.
"It's a full-time job," Jupina says. "It's a lot of work, but that's okay, because once this casebook is put together, we're going to be so proud of it."
The Bateman Gold team's campaign focuses on the concept "P(L)AY UP."
"It's a play on words, encouraging students to get active and 'play up' and to 'pay up' by using Popmoney," says senior Meghan Caprez. "Our whole campaign is focused on being active, whether it's in sports or in learning about Popmoney."
The Gold Team has handed out lollipops to students around Kent, leading them to taking an online survey and learn more about the client. Team members have also hosted activities and booths at the Kent State Ice Arena and basketball games.
Roberts says the strict deadlines for each stage of planning and the actual implementation of the campaign plan give students experiences they can't find in any other class. Courses such as PR Case Studies and PR Campaigns allow students to create campaign plans, but Bateman is the only class that lets students implement them.
"I think they get a real-world feel of what a campaign is really like," Roberts says. "It's beyond the classroom.
They're actually talking to the public, going out and implementing a tactic."
The Bateman Competition also helps prepare students for careers in public relations. Erin Osini, '11 public relations graduate, participated in the competition in 2010.
"Bateman provided a very fast-paced learning environment and gave me the opportunity to work with a team, something I experience on a daily work basis," says Orsini, now an account executive at Marcus Thomas LLC. "I am grateful for being a part of the competition and having the opportunity to get a true taste of the PR world."
Students will wrap up campaign implementation Feb. 28 and begin evaluating and completing their casebooks in March. Following the March 28 deadline, a panel of PRSSA members and professionals will choose three finalist teams from the nationwide competition to present their findings to Popmoney in May.
"It doesn't even matter if we place, because it's been a learning experience," Jupina says. "You learn by doing. Ultimately, this helps us solidify everything we learned in the classroom and use it to our advantage for a real company someday."

Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition
Tips for Sirines / Safana's quest?
I've beatend BG1 a handful of times, but I've never actually used Safana before this playthrough. I'm by the lighthouse and I need to get her quest done - I cheated a bit and confirmed online it's in that area, past a few sirines.
After 10+ attempts last night without a satisfactory outcome (IE not losing 4/6 of my party), I gave up. Looking for some advice on how to fight Sirines. They keep charming my party, and at this point in the game I have no charm protection. Those they don't charm quickly fall to their attacks.
I'm using.
PC - Half-Orc Fight/Cleric. 19str and Con - dual wielding beast.
Dorn Il Kahn
Kagain is level 3, everyone else is level 2.
Any advice would be welcome... I have about 1k gold, and I'm debating just buying a bunch of stealth potions to sneak by but I can't even remember who sells them.
"Life is like a box of chocolates. Diabetics can't enjoy either."
Get your toughest character and send him in alone - Leave your other party members well out of sight.
Your single dude will get repeatedly charmed. The Sirines wont attack him while he's charmed, and he wont attack your party members as long as they arent nearby.
After a few castings, the Sirines will run out of charm spells; you can tell when they've run out as they will switch to physical attacks. Their arrow attacks are powerful,but they're pretty weak in close quarters combat, so now you should quickly rush them down with the rest of your party.
No one, not even a demon, can deny a man his Pizza Shack Teriyaki Pizza.

Get your toughest character and send him in alone - Leave your other party members well out of sight.
Thanks... that gave me the idea of sending Kagain in with a large shield, potion of defense, belt of +3 arrow defense (can't remember name..) and gauntlets of dex 18. He survived the charms, survived the arrows with some potions, and killed the front the sirines.
Appreciate it.
"Life is like a box of chocolates. Diabetics can't enjoy either."
Guess I'm a little late, but I would have recommended leaving and coming back when your characters were a couple levels higher. Siren's are *****es. I've been leaving them alone as I build up my characters. Only the three coastal areas and the named areas are left, with my characters at levels 4-5. Should be about ready.
There are 10 types of people in the world. Those that know binary, and those that don't.
GT:Talon Omega. If you send an FR please tell me where you got my GT.
Potions of clarity make you immune to charm.
It's been too long since Iast played this game. Last night I decided to go into the siren areas, and instantly remembered the best way to deal with them: summoned creatures. I have Imoen scout ahead until I find sirens, then summon a creature and send it in. They burn all their charm spells on completely expendable creatures that they can't charm, and then I send in the team to mow them down. Rasaad is rather useful in doing this, because he's fast enough to close on them before they can kill the summoned creatures, which means fewer poison arrows flying at my team.
There are 10 types of people in the world. Those that know binary, and those that don't.
GT:Talon Omega. If you send an FR please tell me where you got my GT.
Well if you don't mind not fighting them at all. What i do is use one of the haste potions you get from Imoen or Monty and the invisibility potion from Jahira. Run into the cave snatch everything and run back out. You can dash right past all the sirens before they finish casting.

It's Even Worse than It Looks: A Conversation with Tom Mann and Norm Ornstein

The Center for the Study of Politics and Governance will host Congressional scholars Thomas Mann and Norm Ornstein on Monday, June 25, from 4 to 5:30 p.m. in Cowles Auditorium. In their new book, titled It's Even Worse Than It Looks: How the American Constitutional System Collided With the New Politics of Extremism, Mann and Ornstein argue that the political system faces what the authors call "asymmetric polarization," and until voters learn to act strategically to reward problem solving and punish obstruction, American democracy will remain in serious danger.

J.K. Rowling book sells for $4 million
Filed under: In The News, That's Entertainment
A J.K. Rowling fan purchased the ultimate stocking stuffer at a Sotheby's auction: a leather bound, handwritten and illustrated book of fairy tales created by the famed Harry Potter author.
But the buyer didn't wait it to go on sale. Estimated to sell for $100,000, "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" sold for four million dollars. The money will go to The Children's Voice, a charity co-founded by Rowling and Baroness Nicholson, a member of Britain's House of Lords.
"This will mean so much to children in desperate need of help," she said in a statement. "It means Christmas has come early to me 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard' is really a distillation of the themes found in the Harry Potter books, and writing it has been the most wonderful way to say goodbye to a world I have loved and lived in for 17 years," Rowling said.
Note to J.K. Rowling: I know an easy way to raise even more money for your charity, make this book available to the rest of us!

I put the replacement parts back in the agitator and screwed the bolt back in. Before I put the seal and lid back in/on, I cleaned both. This repair was VERY much a "do it yourself"!!

Kim Kardashian was missing in action at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Saturday but Kanye West was front and center for at least two shows and an after-party.
New daddy Kanye took in the Louise Goldin and Alexander Wang shows and was spotted hanging out with famed fashion photographer Terry Richardson.

Saturday night, he made his way to the Four Seasons Hotel for the party hosted by Mademoiselle magazine where he was greeted enthusiastically by the iconic former editor of French Vogue, Carine Roitfeld, the subject of a new documentary.
Kim had appeared alongside Kanye at previous Fashion Week shows but her body-after-baby North apparently isn't ready for front row viewing yet.
She seems to have been missing Kanye, though, tweeting that she was watching Yeezus YouTube vidoes.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — A man who said he was upset over his treatment by the government is accused of crashing his van into a Social Security Administration office in Traverse City.
Douglas McCallum, 47, of Kingsley rammed the van on Sunday night into the front of the office, which was closed, police said. He was arrested nearby for malicious destruction of property and was released from custody Monday.
"It was a fit of rage caused by years of being screwed over by the government," McCallum told the Traverse City Record-Eagle.
McCallum said he was frustrated because officials continued to deny his disability claim after six years.
Charges were pending. McCallum wasn't injured, police said.
According to police, McCallum ran over the office's sign and positioned the van so the rear faced the office's front entrance. A witness told police the van then crashed twice into the building before he got out.
Robert Simpson, who has worked 26 years for the Social Security Administration, said it's the first time he's seen a frustrated claimant act out violently.
"Most people are reasonable," said Simpson, who manages the Traverse City office. "They have to meet the requirements of the law, and if they don't agree with the determination, they have appeal rights."
The office opened for business as scheduled Tuesday, and visitors now must enter through a secure employee entrance. Repairs to the entrance and lobby are expected to take several weeks.

Yes I believe Blu-ray is more future proof. Because in the world of physical media more capacity equals more futureproof IMO. This is an opinion, not a fact but I base it on the facts of Blu-ray and HD DVD.
I'm stating the facts in my last post (also in post#45 in this thread), you are simply refusing to comment on them. That's not proving anything besides you being unwilling to discuss or answering my questions and requests for external sources, for whatever reason.

Special Correspondent
MUMBAI: Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha L.K. Advani on Saturday said the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has been one of the most misunderstood patriotic movements of pre-Independent India and India of the 20th century. The RSS is not really an organisation but a movement that has transformed society and made lakhs of young men into nationalists, he said.
He was speaking after launching a collection of articles titled Rashtra Aradhak on the life of Jhamatmal Wadhwani, former president of the Bharatiya Jan Sangh and founder of the Bharatiya Sindhu Sabha. Wadhwani passed away last year after a heart attack.
Mr Advani said he knew Wadhwani since 1942 as they had joined the RSS around the same time and he was a constant source of inspiration. There was no thought then to join politics, the main idea being to drive the British away, he said.
He said the book is not only about Wadhwani but also about the RSS. Swami Vivekanand had said India needed "man-making" machinery and the RSS was in reality a "man making" machine, Mr Advani remarked.
He lauded Wadhwani for being an ideal and selfless RSS worker who did a lot to remove the misunderstanding about the RSS being a fundamentalist organisation, among other things. In Sindh, Wadhwani worked with such sincerity and got all the Hindus together there, it was interesting to note, the Congress was not opposed to the RSS, Mr. Advani recalled.
Mr. Advani said if a referendum was conducted in Tharparkar district in Sindh, adjacent to Rajasthan, as it was done in Sylhet, most of the people there would have voted to stay with India and the Sindhi community would not have been scattered as it is now.

People as far north as Boston and as far south as Atlanta apparently felt a 5.8-magnitude earthquake that hit the East Coast on Tuesday afternoon. There were even reports of tremors in Northern Florida.
There have yet to be any reports of deaths or serious injuries, but social media and news reports confirmed almost immediately that the shaking ground caused a few shake-ups for those residing in the affected areas; for example, cell phone service was interrupted, making it difficult for those who felt the tremor to get in touch with concerned family and friends.
Many celebrities took to Twitter to comment on the quake:

National team competitions
The Netherlands kicked off their Group C campaign with an emphatic 86-54 win over Lithuania in the U16 European Championship Women in Bulgaria.
Lithuania won Division B last year and scored the first basket of the game, but they did not lead again.
The Dutch team held their opponents scoreless for nearly five minutes afterwards, during which the Netherlands went on a 16-0 run to surge clear.
The lead increased to 21 later in the half as the Netherlands continued to force turnovers and push their opponent's misses.
The Dutch team were relentless in the second half as they showed their depth, resting their starters while pushing the lead past 30 points.
Four players ended with double-figures, led by Laura Westerik (19 points) and Janis Ndiba (18 points, 7 rebounds).
Laurita Jurciute top-scored for Lithuania with 16 points.
