Geographic Range
Proteus anguinus, also known as olms, are native to countries along the Adriatic Sea. They can be found as far north as Slovenia and northern Italy, continuing southward through Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is uncertain whether the range continues south to Montenegro and Serbia. Isolated populations of Proteus anguinus have been introduced in the French Pyrenees Mountains and northeastern Italy. (Arnold and Burton, 1978; Arntzen, 2009; Bulog, 1999; Gasc, 1997; Sessions, 2010a; Sket, 2003; Steward, 1969)
- Biogeographic Regions
- palearctic
Proteus anguinus is found in the subterranean, freshwater lakes and streams of limestone caves in the Dinaric Alps. The water in these caves is slightly acidic, contains high concentrations of oxygen, and ranges in temperature from 5° to 15° C. Adapted to an aphotic environment, olms usually reside deep within cave systems. They may be found in open streams near the surface during times of high rainfall and flooding. They are generally found over 300 meters below surface. (Arnold and Burton, 1978; Arntzen, 2009; Gasc, 1997; Steward, 1969)

Physical Description
Proteus anguinus has a slender, elongate body averaging 23 to 25 cm in length from head to tail. The torso is cylindrical and has about two-dozen costal grooves along each side. The tail is laterally compressed, with small fins running along the top and bottom. The head is elongate with a broad snout that is blunted at the end. Its eyes are very small and do not even breach the skin. The skin is usually creamy white, but may have a pinkish hue. When exposed to light, the skin turns dark violet to black. Darkening of the skin is reversed when it is returned to the darkness. On the ventral side of the body the skin is translucent and reveals the contours of internal organs. Directly behind the head on each side are three large, feathery, bright pink gills. This species exhibits little sexual dimorphism in appearance, but females are larger than males.
Juveniles may be distinguished from adults by the faint yellow or red blotches on their skin, and their better developed eyes. Black olms, a variant of this species previously known as Proteus anguinus parkelj, have permanently dark skin and a shorter head.

Unlike those of most amphibians, olm larvae do not go through a distinct period of metamorphosis. Instead, the hatchling juveniles have developed directly into adults, retaining some of their larval characters such as gills and tail fins. Environmental temperature plays an important role in the development of eggs as well as juveniles. Within the range of 8° to 15°C, development time is relatively shorter (86 days) in warm temperatures and longer (182 days) in cold temperatures. (Arntzen, 2009; Bulog, 1999; Durand, 1981; Sessions, 2010a; Sessions, 2010b; Steward, 1969)
- Development - Life Cycle
- neotenic/paedomorphic
- metamorphosis
Proteus anguinus is an aseasonal breeder. During times of breeding, males become territorial and physically defend their territories. The qualities of an ideal territory are unknown. Once a mating territory is established by the male, he waits for females. Eventually a female will approach a male within his territory and courtship begins. It is unclear whether males and/or females release pheromones to communicate with each other. A male may potentially mate with multiple females, but a female mates with just one male.
The courtship process is distinctive. A female approaches a male, and he fans his tail towards her head. The male then touches the female's cloaca with his snout, and she reciprocates. The male walks in front of the female and deposits a spermatophore, which the female immediately picks up with her cloaca and stores in a special structure called a spermathecae. (Sessions, 2010a; Sessions, 2010b)
- Mating System
- polygynous
Proteus anguinus breeds every 12 years, on average. The female begins laying her fertilized eggs 2 to 3 days after courtship, and may continue to lay eggs for up to 25 days. Before laying her eggs, the female establishes an egg-laying territory away from the male's territory. Clutch size averages 35 eggs. Eggs incubate for two to six months, hatching into juveniles that develop directly into adults. Olms become sexually mature at 14 to 15 years old. (Bulog, 1999)

Because olms live in such secluded environments, little is known about their lifespan or longevity in the wild. In fact, much of the information available concerning Proteus anguinus has been gathered from observing populations in captivity. The average age of an individual in captivity was 68.5 years, and the expected life expectancy is over 100 years. (Bulog, 1999)

Due to olms' secretive lifestyle, little information has been gathered in the wild regarding its general behavior. Usually a gregarious salamander occupying space under rocks or in cracks, Proteus anguinus only becomes territorial during times of breeding. Migratory behavior for this species is unknown, but it is expected to be mainly sedentary. (Bulog, 1999; Sessions, 2010a)
- Key Behaviors
- terricolous
- troglophilic
- natatorial
- motile
- sedentary
- territorial
- social
Home Range
Because the adult Proteus anguinus occupies caves that are largely inaccessible to humans, the extent of an individual's range is not known. (Bulog, 1999)
Communication and Perception
Because it inhabits permanently dark environments, Proteus anguinus has developed non-visual sensory systems to better suit an aphotic lifestyle. Its eyes still retain some light sensitivity, but they are greatly reduced. Highly sensitive chemoreceptors allow olms to detect extremely low concentrations of organic material in the water. Olms use this ability to distinguish species of prey and their abundance. Functional ears, which may register sounds from the surrounding water as well as the ground, are complemented by olms' lateral line organ, which detects low-frequency water displacement in the nearby surrounding environment. All members of the genus Proteus contain an ampullary electroreceptor which is used to detect electric fields. The main function of their ampullary electroreceptor is not known, but it is suspected top be used for locating prey. Behavioral studies suggest that Proteus anguinus is also able to detect and orient itself to magnetic fields.
Little is known about the forms of intraspecies communication of olms. Potential mates have been observed using tactile stimulation – each mate touching its snout to the others cloaca. Before this, the male waves his tail in front of the female's head. Because visual perception is minimal in the species, the purpose of such courtship behaviors is believed to be linked to pheromones and chemoreception. To establish and defend their territories, males are not known to use chemical clues, but rely on physical competition. The specialized sensory adaptations observed in olms have led scientists to use the species as a model for studying the effects of permanent darkness on the evolution of such traits. (Arntzen, 2009; Bulog, 1989; Bulog, 1999; Dumas, 1998; Sessions, 2010a)
- Other Communication Modes
- pheromones
Food Habits
Olms are insectivores, but will eat most anything that they can capture and fit into their mouths. They prey on arthropods and small invertebrates such as Oniscus asellus as well as organsims of the genera Belgrandiella and Niphargus. They also feed on a wide variety of insect larvae belonging to the orders Trichoptera, Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Diptera. To locate and capture their prey, olms use a combination of chemoreceptors, electroreceptors, and mechanoreceptors. In captivity, olms have been recorded eating worms, tiny fish, and even small pieces of raw meat. (Bulog, 1999; Steward, 1969)

Proteus anguinus has no known predators.
Ecosystem Roles
As a predator of multiple different organisms, Proteus anguinus has a direct impact on the sizes of insect, arthropod, and other invertebrate populations within local subterranean freshwaters. (Bulog, 1999)
Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
As a very distinguishable and unique creature, Proteus anguinus serves as a popular ecotourist attraction in the Dinaric Alps. It is a national treasure of Slovenia, and is so recognized by being pictured on one of the countries coins. Olms are sometimes collected for the pet trade, but doing so is illegal within the countries that protect the species. Proteus anguinus is also used in scientific research as a model for studying the evolution of highly specialized sensory adaptations in aphotic environments. (Bulog, 1999; Sessions, 2010a)
- Positive Impacts
- pet trade
- ecotourism
- research and education
Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
There are no known adverse effects of Proteus anguinus on humans.
Conservation Status
Proteus anguinus is currently listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. The main cause for reduction in olm populations is habitat destruction. This may include water pollution and changes to the land above its underground habitat, such as economic development and tourism. There is also illegal capture of olms for the pet industry. Currently, Proteus anguinus mostly resides in national parks and land protected by the governments of Italy, Croatia, and Slovenia. Variant black olms are limited to a small area in Slovenia and are in need of protection. (Arntzen, 2009)

Can catch, but was not in an offense where he could display those skills. Picks up the blitz but is not a great pass-blocker.Negatives: Must improve overall quickness and show that he can be a receiver. Lacks top on-field strength and doesn't play to his weight-room numbers.Summary: Should be in an NFL training camp, especially if he shows well as a receiver at his pro day.* Player biographies are provided by Pro Football Weekly.

Into Africa
Published: September 20, 1998
(Page 2 of 2)
The following year, the Senate adopted a resolution in support of Leopold's claim on the Congo. It was drafted by Morgan, with Sanford at his shoulder. Sanford also secured an endorsement from the New York Chamber of Commerce. His campaign, Hochschild says, ''was probably the most sophisticated piece of Washington lobbying on behalf of a foreign ruler in the 19th century.'' The United States was the first country to recognize the King's claim. It did so in the spring of 1884, and when the Conference of Berlin went into session at the end of the year to regulate the scramble for Africa, everything was in place to assure Leopold a share of the spoils: Sanford was a member of the American delegation; Stanley, still in the King's pay, was its ''technical adviser.''
By the time the conference ended, early in 1885, Leopold had the port of Matadi at the mouth of the Congo River and the rights to land on which he could build a railway round the rapids upstream. He was thus master of the interior and sovereign ruler of the newly created Congo Free State. Thereafter, the savagery began in earnest.
Many important figures besides Morel and Casement opposed it. All contributed to what Hochschild calls the 20th century's first human rights movement. The most courageous were missionaries and visitors to the Congo, including George Washington Williams, a Baptist minister, journalist and spokesman for black rights, who accused Leopold in a deeply damaging open letter of ''crimes against humanity'' -- an expression that has entered the vocabulary of human rights activists around the world. Two American missionaries to the Congo spoke out at considerable risk to themselves -- the black Presbyterian minister William Sheppard and his superior, William Morrison. In a famous libel case, heard in the Congo in 1909, they defended the charges they had leveled against a concession company -- that their parishioners were enslaved to its rubber quotas -- and walked free from the courthouse. By then the tide had turned against Leopold.
MOREL, the giant-slayer of Hochschild's story, knew that when the King relinquished his territory to the Belgian Government in 1908 the handover would make little difference. He continued working in defense of Africa's subject peoples until the outbreak of World War I, when much of his energy was refocused on the folly in Europe itself. Congo reform, however, remains a model of human rights campaigning. And ''King Leopold's Ghost'' is a model account, both of that great public movement and of the frenzy of killing and profiteering that gave rise to it.
Hochschild is right to think of this story as a template of modernity, not only in terms of Leopold's public-relations skills but also in terms of the great distance between the violence unfolding in the Congo and its instigators in Europe. Hochschild puts this bluntly, without oversimplifying: Leopold ''never set foot in the Congo. There is something very modern about that, too, as there is about the bomber pilot in the stratosphere . . . who never hears screams or sees shattered homes or torn flesh.'' He also argues, convincingly, that the story of the Congo was ''the first major international atrocity scandal in the age of the telegraph and the camera.'' The speed at which news could travel and the importance of the reconstituted image would both be crucial to another scandal in a distant part of the world that was relayed to our living rooms 80 years after Leopold's spectacular land grab: Francis Ford Coppola was not straining credibility when he transposed ''Heart of Darkness'' to Vietnam.

Transitioning from Environmental Due Diligence to Auditing
Although environmental due diligence can be critical to the valuation of an asset prior to purchase, following purchase, compliance is of paramount concern. A new owner must quickly transition from viewing operations from the perspective of a buyer trying to value a purchase appropriately to viewing operations from the perspective of an owner trying to achieve compliance with an operating budget. This transition may also involve developing an intimate familiarity with the assets just purchased—a familiarity with the assets typically unique to an owner who has unbridled access to the facility and its records not available to a prospective buyer. Ongoing compliance issues may have been identified during due diligence and the lack of a new owner's comprehensive knowledge of the facility's compliance status creates a substantial risk. Because both federal and state environmental regulatory agencies offer various incentives to mitigate the risk of assessment of enforcement penalties and because audits can quickly build a new owner's knowledge base regarding the assets' compliance, an audit is an excellent tool to manage this risk during the transaction and beyond and, ultimately, increase value following closing. Further, if extensive due diligence prior to the transaction was not conducted, environmental risk acquired through the transaction can still be identified and managed by self-assessing or auditing.
In the environmental context, an audit is a systematic evaluation of a facility or operation during a defined period of time (a "snapshot in time") to determine compliance with environmental laws or to identify issues that could give rise to compliance issues. Compliance management practices are also frequently reviewed during an audit. The scope of an audit can be comprehensive, similar to due diligence, or it can be targeted to address specific areas. For example, compliance with an air permit may be of paramount concern and, thus, the limited subject of an audit.
At the federal level, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA") New Owner Self-Audit Policy encourages participation in the voluntary self-policing and disclosure process by buyers who find compliance problems during due diligence and then become owners.[1] EPA also offers additional penalty mitigation incentives to new owners, who within the first nine months after acquisition, examine facility operations, voluntarily disclose violations identified, correct violations, and upgrade deficient equipment and compliance practices.[2]
In Texas, audits and the associated protections are defined by statute rather than policy. Texas law is prescriptive and, until September 1, 2013, did not afford immunity to a prospective purchaser who discovered a violation during due diligence, became the owner, and wished to address the issue after closing. New owners were not able to plug themselves into the protections of the Texas statute in the same manner allowed by EPA's New Owner Self-Audit Policy due to criteria, such as prior notice of the audit, prescribed by the Texas statute.
Senate Bill 1300 (83rd Leg., R.S. (2013)) amended the Texas Environmental, Health, and Safety Audit Privilege Act ("Texas Audit Act") and accomplished the following:
- Recognizes that due diligence conducted prior to acquisition is an audit.[3]
- Eliminates the need for the notice of audit to be given in advance of that diligence in order to qualify for immunity.[4] This makes sense as sellers are naturally reluctant to allow the buyer to give notice to the agency that a comprehensive audit or any level of audit is being conducted before the buyer is actually the owner.
- Allows the new owner to obtain immunity for discoveries made during diligence and then disclosed within 45 days after closing.[5] This is consistent with EPA's New Owner Self-Audit Policy with respect to such discoveries and disclosures. By giving notice within 45 days after closing, a new owner can also enter the audit program and continue an audit that actually began as due diligence but that would benefit from a more in-depth evaluation that only an owner (as opposed to a prospective purchaser) with full access to the facility and relevant compliance records can obtain. The audit can then continue for up to six months from the closing date.[6]
There are numerous areas where EPA jurisdiction overlaps with state agency jurisdiction. Air and water permitting and waste management are examples. These overlaps create situations in which one must consider disclosing both to EPA and to the state. The new amendments to the Texas Audit Act eliminate the conundrum that existed when the federal policy afforded greater protection than the state program. The legislation allows the state to approach the issue in a manner consistent with EPA's approach. The amendments also eliminate the situation in which the opportunity to disclose and fix is rejected because of the perceived risk of penalties on the state side.
Auditing and voluntary disclosures to EPA and state agencies have been effective tools for oil and gas companies that are trying to manage the risk of environmental enforcement while trying to comply with new regulatory requirements—such as greenhouse gas reporting and requirements under New Source Performance Standards Subpart OOOO—that have recently been imposed on the industry. Auditing and voluntarily disclosing identified violations can also be effective compliance tools for new owners who discover that the prior owners have not been complying with such recently-promulgated requirements, compliance with which can be very resource-intensive, time-intensive, and people-intensive. A seller may not be willing to invest such resources in assets that the seller plans to flip. The new owner can manage the risk of enforcement following closing of a transaction by notifying EPA and appropriate state agencies and proceeding to fix the problem. These proactive measures by new owners also have the benefit of providing EPA and/or Texas environmental regulatory agencies assurance that compliance issues that would not otherwise be identified are corrected, resulting in improved protection of human health and the environment.

A win like this seems to take great intuition and a belief in your attack. Kramnik also seemed to dictate the play throughout he traded when he wanted to. Very nice clean game.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Belfast
Value for Money
After having stayed in this hotel for 5 nights on a �94($170) including breakfast buffet I can say it is good value for money.
The room is modern and quite comfortable although if you stay in a odd numbered room and you want to open a window you will have to get used to the noisy regular diesel trains. So go for the even numbered rooms but you will miss out then on the nice river and hills view.
After having requested several items and complained about the broken bathplug on the first night. Nothing happened. Spoke to the duty manager the next day and she graciously upgraded us to a junior suite.
Restaurant menu is good and tasty but unfortunately most of the staff need to be retrained on their service standards.
Business centres printer did not work.Attendant said she would print it on a backoffice printer and sent it to our room unfortunately this never happeded.
Relaxing weekend
We stayed at the Belfast Hilton for the weekend. I thought the room was quite disappointing I had stayed in better appointed hotels in Donegal.We also had the noise of the trains going past quite frequently which I didn't expect. The food in the restaurant was excellent but the waitresses left a lot to be desired- need proper training.
The bar was very quiet and dead - no atmosphere at all.The reception staff however were lovely and friendly. Car parking was expensive even with discount from the hotel.
Very impressed
We have have just returned from a wonderful weekend break in Belfast. Having read the negative comment posted on this site regarding the unfriendliness of staff we feel that such criticism is totally unfounded. In our experience the staff were extremely pleasant, friendly and chatty. Overall we found the hotel to be excellent and the food and service was of a very high standard. One point to note if you are intending staying in this hotel is that the hotel carpark is privately owned and costs stg£10 per overnight stay.
5 * quality for 3* prices
Stayed for 3 nights with my wife on one of the Hiltons special offers, couldn't fault the hotel or the staff at all. Nice spacious room [ odd numbered rooms have the best rooms ]. Full buffet breakfast perfectly represented the world reknown Ulster Fry, while the dinner was excellent, both in terms of value & content. Finally, 2 for 1 cocktails between 4 - 6pm with attentive waiter service [ particularly the Turkish guy ] made for an excellent short break in this fasinating city.
Great Stay
Overall a great stay. The view from the room was lovely. The bar and main restaurant really impressed me with their food although the bar can can get really busy during happy hour attracting many locals. The staff were very friendly and the hotel was modern and clean. The indoor pool is quite small so don't bother going down unless you want to use the gym.
Great Hotel, it has a good bar attatched & lovely restaurant for main meals. If the comments from before are relating to the Italian/Spanish staff then that is the European way -dont expect them to say "Have a nice day!" this is Europe! The room was great, high ceilings, great shower and immaculate. The porter went out of his way to find me a toothbrush - a small gesture but it made a big difference to my day!
Would definately go back on another business trip.
Not up to Hilton standards, nasty reception staff
The final night of our stay in wonderful Northern Ireland was a disaster at this awful Hilton property. A nice looking building from the outside, and not bad within, the problem here is service - or lack of. The reception staff is nasty, curt and could care less. They did not pay attention and billed me for an HHonors free stay after I presented the certificate at check-in. It took us three attempts to find a room with A/C that worked. The bellman was the only one who cared, the front desk staff was hostile, detached and not interested.
Next day when we asked to see the manager, I was accosted with "DO YOU HAVE AN APPOINTMENT!" In fairness to him, he did seem to care and handled my issue. The bar/lounge was fine for light dinner and staff was friendly. Avoid the breakfast buffet at all costs, it's overpriced and the person at the grill refused to make an omelet for me. I don't do those. Yet he had an omelet pan! Go figure. All in all, this is a terrible place, and Hilton needs to send the front desk team to charm school to learn some human kindness. I'll never go back.
Careful of Connecting Doors
Nice rooms, lovely hotel BUT if you have a room with an interconnecting door expect to be able to listen in on your neighbours calls...
Unfriendly poor service
Booked a romance package for honeymoon. Staff made no effort forgot champagne didnt care and remained unfriendly. Lots of people complained about food doormen more interested in entertaining locals in the bar.Atmosphere hostile. Save money stay anywhere else honestly.
Really Great
This is a top-notch, relatively new Hilton. The rooms are fantastic and the food was wonderful. It was in a good location and there was ample parking (so long as you don't have a big car). It was the best value of any hotel we stayed in in Ireland (or in this case Northern Ireland). We took a great tour of the city from the hotel. President Clinton stayed there a year or two ago (they display the pictures to prove it). Extremely clean...classy and a good value. No complaints.

Travel Blogs from Belfast
First Time in Northern Ireland
We had breakfast and left the hotel with time to drive around the area some before our afternoon flight. We found a cute vacation community on Loch Lomond and took a walk around it. There were small lake homes that seemed to be mostly summer homes, but could be permanent residences, I suppose. The woman at the shop there said that the internet …
One Day in Belfast
I went to bed far later than I had anticipated probably around midnight (sunset was about 10pm and it doesn't get dark until after 10:30) and then was up earlier than I thought (I kid you not when I say it gets light by 4:30am!). So I checked on line and I thought I read that the train to Belfast left at 8:30am so I am at the train station by 7:30 …

Who knew one of those things would be street sign placement in a city? Yea.. not my brightest ...

Thank you Northern Ireland for such a great couple of days. Tomorrow back to England :)

Homeland Season 3 Premiere Review: The C-SPAN Season
Homeland S03E01: "Tin Man Is Down"
Hey, remember Homeland's second season? I don't, really, and I wrote hundreds of words about each episode as part of my job. While some of that forgetfulness can be attributed to old age and a long break between seasons, not all of it can be. I'm declaring selective memory on this one, because even my foggy brain recalls Season 2 had its fair share of problems we'd just as soon forget. Like when Brody murdered the bomb-vest maker in the series' most ridiculous episode ever, or when Vice President Walden was murdered via Wifi-enabled pacemaker, or when Dana Brody and Finn Walden ran over a poor lady with Finn's car. Homeland's difficult Season 2 high-wire act of balancing forbidden romance with domestic terrorism, a character-driven drama with high-stakes and action-oriented government operations, and Dana Brody the insightful teen daughter with Dana Brody the teen terror stumbled and fell to its death almost as often as it arrived safely on the other side.
The Season 3 premiere, "Tin Man Is Down," mostly focused on Saul Berenson and Carrie Mathison. That was a wise choice on Homeland's part, because Saul and Carrie are the two characters who haven't made any missteps, story-wise, and Mandy Patinkin and Claire Danes can act their f*cking skulls off.
So what did that mean for "Tin Man is Down"? It meant a season premiere with a dominant storyline that was mistake-free and stuffed with fascinating performances. It also meant a more mature season premiere. And by mature, I mean more C-SPAN-ish. And by C-SPAN-ish, I mean sans fireworks. "Tin Man Is Down" wasn't particularly eventful compared to Homeland's bigger episodes; most of its shots were fired verbally across a courtroom during Senate hearings between cranky Senators and enigmatic CIA members, rather than in exotic places between the good guys and the bad guys.
It's been two months since the explosion at Langley, and "Tin Man Is Down" opened with a shot of Carrie, her right hand raised, promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help her big guy in the sky. And it was Carrie's version of the truth that immediately got her in trouble. Despite everyone else in the country believing that Congressman Nicholas Brody was a turncoat who's now responsible for the death of 219 people in "the worst attack on this nation since 9/11" (with Estes and Finn included in that body count), Carrie is still clinging to the idea that Brody had no idea his car had a bomb in it, that he had nothing to do with the bombing. That's a fine thought to think in private, but Carrie went ahead and blurted it out, undermining her credibility like a 9/11 First Responder spouting some Truther gibberish. That's Carrie Mathison for ya!
In the meantime, Saul was getting comfy in his new role as Director of the CIA, which changes EVERYTHING about his relationship with Carrie. Saul can no longer play the rebellious CIA higher-up who serves as Carrie's confidante. Now he's the highest-up, and with that gig comes more responsibility to the American people and all that jazz. That means hunches and loose leashes are a thing of the past, because foiled plots and dead terrorists are all that matters. It also means that Saul is now the guy who has to make difficult decisions and produce immediate results, and he gave the go-ahead on the assassination of six prime targets in the Langley bombing, all of them civilians who played their part. But none of them were THE guy who ordered the attack (it was someone named Majid Javadi). Saul, logical guy that he is, would've rather waited until he had a shot at real-prize Javadi, but pressure forced him into kicking the field goal instead of going for the touchdown. A small victory now outweighed the chance at a big victory later, and in a sweet scene showing just how awesome American intelligence and military technology can be, all six targets spread out across the globe got vaporized or shot up within minutes of each other. Sadly, it felt like a hollow win. Welcome to your new job, Saul.
And the CIA could really use some good news right now, because it is struggling these days. Senator Andrew Lockhart (Tracy Letts), chairman of the Senate committee that's investigating the bombing, has been digging through the trash, and he wants to hold the CIA responsible. In addition to trying to move on from the blast that killed scores of Americans, the agency is dealing with an accusation of gross negligence—the attack took place on its home turf, and Carrie can't believe it happened under her nose. Sad! Despite the C-SPANity of these scenes, the Senate hearings were actually much more thrilling than they had any right to be, and a large chunk of that credit goes to Letts as Chairman Lockhart. That guy knows how to act like a huge dick.
The fact is, the CIA made some shady, top-secret, and not-exactly-wise deals with Nicholas Brody—including the promise of immunity—and with all this hand-raising and truth-promising, the truth was going to come out sooner or later. Asking one person to stay quiet is one thing; asking a whole department to zip its lips is another. Someone was leaking documents to Lockhart, and by the time the story hit the papers that an unnamed CIA agent was boinking Brody right up until the bombing, something had to give. Saul, without naming names (and that's the only saving grace in this situation), confirmed that a bipolar, erratic agent had been sleeping with Brody and concealed her actions from the agency. Gee, who could that be? And how long could it possibly be until Carrie's name is attached? With Brody out of the picture, the betrayal of Carrie was left to Saul, and it hit nearly as hard. But given the situation, it's hard to say Saul had much of a choice. His options were either to protect Carrie or to protect the CIA. "A win would be nice. Another fuck-up would be fatal," Saul said. Well, he didn't get the win, and he may have distanced himself and the rest of the CIA from the fuck-up (i.e. Carrie). Just another miserable day working for the CIA.
And just another miserable day being the teen daughter of a war-hero-turned-mass-murder-suspect, right? Despite a solid core, "Tin Man Is Down" was not without its questionable storylines. And Questionable Decisions may as well be the name of Homeland's upcoming Dana Brody spin-off. While everyone else used the two months that've passed since the bombing to mourn and lament the new sense of vulnerability in this country, Dana used the time to slit her wrists in the Brody household bathroom?! Whaaaaat!? Then she ended up at a treatment center with other troubled teens. Come again? And once she was mentally healed, she returned home and sent some tit pics to the cute boy she met during treatment? Ugh. At least her suicide attempt happened over the break. Can you imagine the uproar that would've ensued if we'd actually seen it?
Look, I've been as big a defender of Dana as anybody (Morgan Saylor is a tremendous young actress, I don't care what anyone else says), but is this really what Homeland needed? It's as if the Homeland writers Googled all their own characters names and saw that Dana was being talked about so much that they handed her a huge storyline without reading the adjectives that accompanied those search results. It's too early to write off this storyline as a terrible choice, but from what we've seen, it seems as though it's headed in that direction. If you ask me, the Brody family's relevance disappeared when Brody hightailed it into Canada. But here we are, still watching the Brodys (minus Nicholas and plus Grandma) eat dinner and talk too loudly. It's boring and perplexing, but it also means one thing: Brody will find his way back to his family somehow. Otherwise, what's the point? You're telling me that Homeland is going to split its time between stopping acts of terror in America and figuring out who Dana will take to prom? Something's up here, and we're right in that ultra-confusing gray area of not knowing what it is. We have to let this story play out, but I give you permission to complain about it at least until next week's episode.
I don't know about you, but I was looking for a big Homeland reinvention as the show headed into Season 3 Brody-free; instead, the premiere focused on the relatively quiet aftermath of the Langley bombing (perhaps Season 3 is going to be dominated by Senators senatoring?). The episode provided a solid setup for Carrie and Saul—we'll undoubtedly be examining their roles in the bombing going forward—but it didn't tell us a whole bunch about what we can expect from the season. Maybe a deep breath was exactly what the show needed. We'll see when it fully exhales.
– Wow, that Peter Quinn is quite the badass! He built a bomb, slow-chased a car while on a scooter, ID'd a kid in the car and aborted the bombing, infiltrated a heavily guarded house, shot up half a dozen guards, shot the target through a desk, AND killed the kid for good measure! Take that, kid! Seriously though, don't go soft on us, Quinn. That child would've grown up to be a terrorist or a telemarketer or something! Also, who let the youngster out of his room once the bomb exploded? Poor parenting! Who was he, Carl from The Walking Dead?
– I'm liking Dar Adal (F. Murray Abraham) as the devil on the Saul's shoulder. However, I still barely know how his character got involved in all of this.
– So... Carrie is into gingers, eh? And having sex with her bra on. Also, here's my recommended name for the mystery redhead guy: Faux-dy.
– If they're so short on money, how could the Brodys afford to have their bathroom redone? Maybe a new shower curtain would have done the trick?
– Teenagers, help me out here: Is it really fair for a guy to send a return selfie of him shirtless when the original selfie from the girl was topless? That seems lopsided, if you ask me. Show a little buttcrack, cute boy from treatment!
UPDATE: Showtime has released the Season 3 premiere online for free, in hopes that it will compel you to subscribe. If you haven't seen it yet, now's your chance!

I like it very much. I think I am the only person that likes Brody´s family, but I do. I don´t find Dana so anoying, and it is interesting to know what happens to the most wanted terrorrist family in the "day" after. But it´s true that I feel bored of Carrie very easily, so I like to watch other storys between her madness attacks... it´s just IMO (sorry for my English, no mother language)
geoffmaze Oct 07, 2013
Good point about the Dana suicide attempt. That was never part of S2, it was just something that happened off camera. I suppose that is a realistic occurrence given what she's been through but I hope they don't spend too much time with the Brody's sans Dad.
amelie88 Oct 06, 2013I liked part of Dana´s story last season, but if we have to see someone from the Brody´s it should be Jessica.http://corleonesandlannisters.wordpress.com/2013/10/05/homeland-season-3-crazy-crying-is-back/
ben45tpy Oct 06, 2013
I'm still confused over Tim calling Homeland the best show of 2012 despite skewering it so much, of course the skewering was all justified.
I don't mind that this episode was slow, it was still really good, although not one of the series' best. I'm more concerned about the Dana stuff which did not work.
ErlendJohanne Oct 05, 2013
Any TV show with Mandy Patinkin in it will be good and worth watching. Remember Dr. Geiger in Chicago Hope? Or Jason Gideon in Criminal Minds?
And still a scene-stealer in Homeland. So I'm not bothered if it gets off to a somewhat slow and Brady-free start. We still have Saul...
AdamCetnerowski Oct 05, 2013
If Brody's not in the show from Ep 1, they should drop him and his family completely and do a quasi-reboot with a new plot.
And the pacemaker was based on actual headlines, so not impossible.
AdamCetnerowski Oct 05, 2013
If they wanted to write him off, they should've killed Brody in the final of S2. This way they'd have the perp (at least who they that was guilty) out of the picture and Carrie could work from within to try to get the real terrorists and clear Brody's name.
No1Slayerette Oct 02, 2013
As you said Tim, the premiere focused on the relatively quiet aftermath of the Langley bombing, and there really wasn't too much else they could have done in retrospect, so I was fine with the premiere, even though I found it a tad tiresome at times.
I had a problem with the Senate hearings, mainly because Chariman Lockhart is actually a big dick. I would expect someone more professional to conduct these hearings, and like Carrie's attorney said, they felt more like a witch hunt. I understand that he, and the rest of America, want someone to blame for the lives lost at Langley and for the culpability of the CIA, but I think Homeland should show us why Lockhart in particular feels this way instead of his just berating Carrie and Saul incessantly.
Carrie was perfectly insane, as usual, which is how I like her, but telling the senate hearing she thinks Brody's innocent? Urgh. Screw Dana, Carrie has the worst decision making skills ever. I liked her interrupting Sauls luncheon though, it was a nice display of her paranoia and anger on show, and as it turned out, she wasn't even that paranoid, because Saul threw her under the bus in the end (was her outburst possibly a contributing factor in his decision to do so?). I wasn't sure if I liked him doing this, I thought it was out of character, but as Tim mentioned, a suppose his new role means that his relationship with Carrie has to change, I just didn't expect it to happen in such a short period of time and in such a harsh way.
'At least (Dana's) suicide attempt happened over the break. Can you imagine the uproar that would've ensued if we'd actually seen it?'. I thought exactly the same thing when I was watching this episode. I'm giving the storyline a chance though, it hasn't progressed far enough for me to have an opinion on it, so I' reserving it for now. I still have a very strong opinion about Jess though, she's the worst mother ever. Who reacts like that to their daughter's suicide attempt? She's so self-absorbed.
MinitureMo Oct 01, 2013
It was a quiet episode but I still loved it. The writing and the acting is phenomenal on this show and even the quiet punches hit home in superb fashion.
I loved every minute of season 2 and didn't see anything wrong with the season at all. It was so tense and had me on the edge of my seat each week. It even had me crapping myself, thinking Carrie could get killed in episode 2, even though she is the main character and to have me feel like that tells me how fantastic this show is. You just don't know what's around the corner with these characters. Its so good!
RaveIle Oct 01, 2013
The suicide attempt had me confused for a moment, wondering if I missed last season's last episode or something.
StrawDog Oct 01, 2013
Anyone else recognize Zach Hamilton from Dexter? I guess they put his brain back in.
RaveIle Oct 01, 2013
Haha yeah, he was the best thing about Dexters last season until they wrote him off.

I know the feeling. Rappy abandoned it straight after the Royal Rumble; he told me he refuses to watch WWE while The Rock is champion, hence why the thread's been pretty empty for the last few weeks.
I'm surprised anyone watches RAW anymore. It has become such a boring soap opera, full of stupid ideas and characters, it makes me wanna puke. They need to do something and they need to do something quick before people really get tired and turn their backs on it. Bringing back The Rock every so many months is simply not enough.

Call it the Downton Abbey effect. The name Sybil is back in vogue and credit is given to the popularity of Downton Abbey, the Emmy-winning, British period drama.
On the show, Sybil, played by British actress Jessica Brown Findlay, is the youngest of the three Crawley sisters, the aristocratic family occupying Downton Abbey.
According to Nameberry.com, Sybil was the fifth most popular name searched on the baby-naming site during the first six months of this year.
"The lovely Lady Sybil Crawley has restored the image of this name as expertly as she nursed the wounded soldiers at Downton Abbey," the site reported. "The taint of multiple personality disorder is gone now that the other Sybil has confessed she was faking, and that few people remember the ancient oracle who first defined the name."
Other newly trendy names included those for characters from The Hunger Games and Game of Thrones and the handle Gatsby, presumably thanks to the forthcoming film version of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role.
Now if the name Edith – she's the middle, somewhat equine Crawley sister, portrayed by Laura Carmichael – takes off, then we'll really know that Downton Abbey has arrived.
Which Downton Abbey character would you name a child after?

I can't believe that I have forgotten to rate this recipe! I've made it three times now and love it every time. If you make it don't change a thing!
The birds were very juicy and had a nice mild flavor. The recipe deserves 5 stars. This was my first experience with Cornish game hens and probably my last. They tasted just like chicken. I guess I expected a slightly different flavor. For the money, chicken is a better alternative.
Wow was easy and good...I get so tired of figuring out what to fix for dinner..my husband is extra picky..and he was most enthusiastic about this recipe. I wondered after I fixed it if sauce would also be good on chicken..as it is so easy and tasty.
The next morning after having the hens for dinner..he said he would eat leftovers for breakfast!
Couldn't believe I was hearing that from such a picky man!
Quite enjoyed this recipe. Haven't had Cornish game hens for a long time so this was a nice treat! I would do this one again!!
This is a great recipe!! So easy to do, I love it! I had to sub in Emeril's Original Essence instead of chili powder. It was very good, my wife even liked it and she doesn't like anything I make, lol!! Thanks again for sharing!
This was good. It was simple to make and flavorful. Thanks Chuck in Killbuck for sharing. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag.
I would recommend adding 2-3 more teaspoons of chili powder to the liquid mixture. Also, the mixture did not leech very well beyond the skin, but for that, I can provide another solution or reccomendation. Oh, the drippings mixture makes an excellant dipping sauce for teared chicken pieces.
We really tried to like these, but there was something missing. The hens DID come out juicy, though, but way too bland.

2000 Nissan Frontier Q&A
2000 Nissan Frontier Question: Could it be the fuel pump?
I thought it was bad gas but after changing fuel filter and putting stuff in fuel it hasn't helped. It runs but likes cuts out and runs real rough. The check engine light IS NOT ON! HELP - Visitor
Answer 1
Is the CEL (Check Engine Light) works? Is it comes on when you just turn the key to the ON position, without cranking? Sometimes dirty or failing air flow sensor could cause this. It still sends signal to the ECM, so it won't see it as faulty, even if the signals are way off. Zee - ZeeTech
Answer 2
ck fuel pressure use heet for water buy at partstore - delane 72 garage and body shop
Answer 3
check the distributor and rotor, the bearings in it usualy go and you will need to repplace the distributor. dont bother with a used on unless ithas less than 60k miles on it. There is a small frat disc with points cut out and the disintigrating bearings block them and causes the engine to run erratically. failure to relace it asap wil cause distributor to freeze up and desyroy the cam sprocket and also may cause additional damage to engine. good luck - Visitor

I changed the fuel filter and I can hear the fuel pump come on but no fuel could it be the main fuel relay and if so where is it located.
I just drove it home from passing the emission test and the belt broke and truck overheated and coolant all over.
It acts like a bad fuel pump, but I think it's electrical. What could it be?
