Alaskan Halibut with a Tagliatelle of Vegetables & Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette
Presented by: Chef Brian Scheehser | Trellis Restaurant, Kirkland
serves 4
Ingredients for Halibut
- 4 6-ounce pieces fresh Alaskan halibut fillets
- 1 teaspoon olive oil for searing
- pea vines and fresh chive blossoms for garnish (optional)
Ingredients for Tagliatelle Vegetables
- 3 stalks celery
- 3 carrots
- 1 leek, white and light green part only
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Ingredients for Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette
- 1 medium shallot, peeled and finely diced, 1 teaspoon reserved
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons capers
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley leaves, left whole or chopped
- 2-1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1-1/4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
On a mandoline, flat cut the celery and carrots into shoestrings. Cut leeks by hand on the diagonal.
In a small bowl, whisk lemon juice, olive oil, shallots, capers, and parsley. Add lemon zest and season to taste. Reserve at room temperature, for tossing vegetables and dressing salmon.
Season halibut with pepper. Turn heat source to medium-high heat; use a large sauté pan with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Taking caution, not to splash oil when putting halibut in pan, sear 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Season the second side with salt, after the first side has browned.
Meanwhile, in another sauté pan, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add reserved shallots, and saute prepared vegetables quickly, just until crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper and serve at room temperature as a bed for the halibut.
Place halibut on top of vegetables; drizzle vinaigrette over the top of the halibut. Dust with fine salt and black pepper, garnish with a few pea vines and chive blossoms, and serve.

(a) Review of regulations in Circuit Court of Appeals of the United States for the District of Columbia
Review of any regulation promulgated under this chapter may be had upon application by any interested person only in the Circuit Court of Appeals of the United States for the District of Columbia. Any such application shall be made within ninety days from the date of promulgation of such regulations. Any matter with respect to which review could have been obtained under this subsection shall not be subject to judicial review in any civil or criminal proceeding for enforcement or to obtain damages or recovery of response costs.
(b) Jurisdiction; venue
Except as provided in subsections (a) and (h) of this section, the United States district courts shall have exclusive original jurisdiction over all controversies arising under this chapter, without regard to the citizenship of the parties or the amount in controversy. Venue shall lie in any district in which the release or damages occurred, or in which the defendant resides, may be found, or has his principal office. For the purposes of this section, the Fund shall reside in the District of Columbia.
(c) Controversies or other matters resulting from tax collection or tax regulation review
The provisions of subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall not apply to any controversy or other matter resulting from the assessment of collection of any tax, as provided by subchapter II [1] of this chapter, or to the review of any regulation promulgated under title 26.
(d) Litigation commenced prior to December 11, 1980
No provision of this chapter shall be deemed or held to moot any litigation concerning any release of any hazardous substance, or any damages associated therewith, commenced prior to December 11, 1980.
(e) Nationwide service of process
In any action by the United States under this chapter, process may be served in any district where the defendant is found, resides, transacts business, or has appointed an agent for the service of process.
(f) Contribution
(1) Contribution
Any person may seek contribution from any other person who is liable or potentially liable under section 9607 (a) of this title, during or following any civil action under section 9606 of this title or under section 9607 (a) of this title. Such claims shall be brought in accordance with this section and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and shall be governed by Federal law. In resolving contribution claims, the court may allocate response costs among liable parties using such equitable factors as the court determines are appropriate. Nothing in this subsection shall diminish the right of any person to bring an action for contribution in the absence of a civil action under section 9606 of this title or section 9607 of this title.
(2) Settlement
A person who has resolved its liability to the United States or a State in an administrative or judicially approved settlement shall not be liable for claims for contribution regarding matters addressed in the settlement. Such settlement does not discharge any of the other potentially liable persons unless its terms so provide, but it reduces the potential liability of the others by the amount of the settlement.
(3) Persons not party to settlement
(A) If the United States or a State has obtained less than complete relief from a person who has resolved its liability to the United States or the State in an administrative or judicially approved settlement, the United States or the State may bring an action against any person who has not so resolved its liability.
(B) A person who has resolved its liability to the United States or a State for some or all of a response action or for some or all of the costs of such action in an administrative or judicially approved settlement may seek contribution from any person who is not party to a settlement referred to in paragraph (2).

(B) for a remedial action, within 6 years after initiation of physical on-site construction of the remedial action, except that, if the remedial action is initiated within 3 years after the completion of the removal action, costs incurred in the removal action may be recovered in the cost recovery action brought under this subparagraph.
In any such action described in this subsection, the court shall enter a declaratory judgment on liability for response costs or damages that will be binding on any subsequent action or actions to recover further response costs or damages. A subsequent action or actions under section 9607 of this title for further response costs at the vessel or facility may be maintained at any time during the response action, but must be commenced no later than 3 years after the date of completion of all response action.

(i) Intervention
In any action commenced under this chapter or under the Solid Waste Disposal Act [42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq.] in a court of the United States, any person may intervene as a matter of right when such person claims an interest relating to the subject of the action and is so situated that the disposition of the action may, as a practical matter, impair or impede the person's ability to protect that interest, unless the President or the State shows that the person's interest is adequately represented by existing parties.
(j) Judicial review

(2) Participation procedures
(A) Removal action
The President shall promulgate regulations in accordance with chapter 5 of title 5 establishing procedures for the appropriate participation of interested persons in the development of the administrative record on which the President will base the selection of removal actions and on which judicial review of removal actions will be based.
(B) Remedial action
The President shall provide for the participation of interested persons, including potentially responsible parties, in the development of the administrative record on which the President will base the selection of remedial actions and on which judicial review of remedial actions will be based. The procedures developed under this subparagraph shall include, at a minimum, each of the following:
(i) Notice to potentially affected persons and the public, which shall be accompanied by a brief analysis of the plan and alternative plans that were considered.
(iii) An opportunity for a public meeting in the affected area, in accordance with section 9617 (a)(2) of this title (relating to public participation).
(iv) A response to each of the significant comments, criticisms, and new data submitted in written or oral presentations.
For purposes of this subparagraph, the administrative record shall include all items developed and received under this subparagraph and all items described in the second sentence of section 9617 (d) of this title. The President shall promulgate regulations in accordance with chapter 5 of title 5 to carry out the requirements of this subparagraph.
(C) Interim record
Until such regulations under subparagraphs (A) and (B) are promulgated, the administrative record shall consist of all items developed and received pursuant to current procedures for selection of the response action, including procedures for the participation of interested parties and the public. The development of an administrative record and the selection of response action under this chapter shall not include an adjudicatory hearing.
(l) Notice of actions
Whenever any action is brought under this chapter in a court of the United States by a plaintiff other than the United States, the plaintiff shall provide a copy of the complaint to the Attorney General of the United States and to the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.

My Photos
Posted 28 December 2008 - 03:50 PM
I guess in the end you just look back and realize how much you've done....
Finally got the Lotus shots finished up. Hopefully there will be a review up on Hidden Track http://www.glidemaga...h-irving-plaza/
Sold out show, excellent 2nd set, packed floor, and a ton of underage kids (16+) so at least the beer lines were short
Really tough getting close to the front though, hopefully they'll move on to bigger venues with photo pits in the near future....
also made this little guy back at the beginning of the baseball season. Marc was going to do an interview on Hidden Track on baseball
and the Yankees and whatnot, but due to touring and studio work, never could get it together on it. I guess using it for
announcing the winter tour made sense..
So got a chance to see the Gene Ween Band at Mexicali last night.
Very well attended show for a weekday. One set, lots of fun, my first time seeing Gene Ween perform
and even Mikey from O.C. Choppers showed up to watch.
Got these shots done quickly, hopefully I'll be able to pull a few more out tonite.
(oh and apparently Scott loves his shot )
setlist and the shots up here on Hidden Track. http://www.glidemaga...-band-mexicali/
also in odds and ends U-Melt is using a few of the shots from their Highline show as part of their livedownload series.
and Lotus is using the shots from Irving Plaza up on their myspace page.
Posted 28 December 2008 - 03:55 PM
So instead I tried working on some old shots with a new style
Bernie Worrell from moogfest.
if you click on it, it will take you to the flickr board, where you can see it full screen.
and also figured I'd get together my best shots of the year and put them altogether.
So here they are in a slideshow, hope you like them.
I got Trey, Page, Snoop Dogg, moe, Umphrey's, Disco Biscuits, Lotus, Levon Helm, Keller, Tea Leaf Green, Raq, U-Melt, and more...
lets see the year end reviews have come out on jambands.com and Glide Magazine and it looks like I've got a shot in each of them.
Jambands happened to crop my shot of Jesse Miller of Lotus from earlier in the year http://www.jambands...._12_17.00.phtml
and Glide happened to use the Scott Metzger shot from Gene Ween Band at Mexicali
Posted 28 December 2008 - 04:17 PM
got a chance to see the Disco Biscuits on the first night of the run at the Nokia, here's a couple to start with, hopefully have some more tomorrow.
Hidden Track posted them to their site as well
and looks like we're gonna sneak over to Bustle in your Hedgerow tonight for one of the last shows at The Knitting Factory, before the venue gets booted out of Manhattan....
Posted 31 December 2008 - 02:27 PM
a bit of work today and then on to the Disco Biscuits in Times Square!
Posted 31 December 2008 - 05:09 PM
Lets start by bringing a few of the old posts back.
pirahna? lol....great shots man!
Posted 01 January 2009 - 01:19 PM
Posted 05 January 2009 - 07:51 PM
Sorry we missed you and Britt, while you guys were back east...
Ok a finally a few from New Years
Matisyahu sitting in with the band
and Brownie
should have it posted to Hidden Track sometime later in the week.
I was pretty excited with the close ups, but as the night progressed...well the shots from the crowd got a little more fuzzy, similar to my thought process
Posted 05 January 2009 - 10:47 PM
Posted 07 January 2009 - 07:25 PM
Posted 07 January 2009 - 07:28 PM
and also Hidden Track is up for a Web award for Best Music Blog, so if anyone is interested in voting here you go
(my understanding is you can vote every 24 hrs or so)
Posted 10 January 2009 - 06:56 PM
Taken around 3pm or so and added a little hdr to it to get the clouds to really pop.
and two more of my shots were accepted at jambands.com
the black and white of Barber from the 26th and the color shot of Bustle with the 3 guys in the shot. You can see them here http://www.jambands....otoDay_Archive/
sharing of course with a shot of Zac Lasher by Chris Paul

all awesome as always jer. also like your new avatar. fancy!
Posted 20 January 2009 - 03:42 PM
so lets see, I haven't been shooting too much of late, actually been packing and moving and currently have my gear in two states (of course that's really only 5 miles apart, but still)
Got a chance to see The Brew at a loft party in Brooklyn on Saturday. Reminded me of my old place, although thankfully this one had heat from a wood burning stove. We used to have one too, but the fire marshall didn't react to kindly to that....
anyway here's a few shots, the band was good, excellent covers of Billy Jean and Have a Cigar, and a few good tunes of their own.
Posted 23 January 2009 - 03:13 PM
a good show, Reed is finally up to speed and is a more inclusive part of the band, singing harmonies and even leading on a few songs. The band has expanded their set lists back up again, so hopefully they're back on track.
hope to have a few more from tonite's show at Wiliamsburg Music Hall and put them all together for a comprehensive review.
Posted 23 January 2009 - 10:20 PM

Posted 26 January 2009 - 10:31 PM
Well walking in to Wiliamsburg Music Hall for Tea Leaf, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The Mexicali show was maybe 1/2 full and the show was decent, but not overwhelming. Thankfully it was completely different in Brooklyn. The place was filled, the band jammed, and we had a great time. Unfortunately the lighting was pretty tough. Almost all of it was back lit and shooting straight into the camera sensor grrrrrrrrrr...
Posted 27 January 2009 - 01:33 AM
very inspiring
Posted 29 January 2009 - 11:10 PM
lets see Carla's review is up on Hidden Track
found out the other day, that Christopher Michetti is using one of my images to promote his new tour and show at Sullivan Hall.
and Phish/Page is using two of my shots from PBS with Page at BB Kings
and I happened upon this picture from last year. Took it leaving the Disco Biscuits in Times Square, happened to look up and saw these guys working on the Coca-Cola sign.
Not sure why I never posted it before...
anyway gonna see Terry Reid at BB Kings tomorrow night. He's the guy who Jimmy Page first asked to join his new band after the Yardbirds broke up. Terry passed and suggested another singer to Page, Mr. Robert Plant, and of course the band became known as Led Zepplin....
Posted 30 January 2009 - 12:43 AM
Posted 30 January 2009 - 04:23 AM
wow! that coke one is sweet
hell yeah it is....damn
Posted 30 January 2009 - 03:08 PM
Posted 02 February 2009 - 01:25 PM
Here's a couple of Terry Reid. It was the first time I'd ever seen a show at BB Kings with seating on the floor. Terry was interesting, I had a heard some recordings of his from 30 years ago, and while he still has a great voice, he no longer has the range or the high notes anymore. He did two tunes I knew, one Brian Wilson song and another song of his, that The Raconteurs had covered, "Rich Boy Blues"
Also I'm been speaking to Pete Wilhoit about this image I took at Camp Bisco.
He loves it and now has it up on his website. He's gonna be in NYC at the end of the month with Fiction Plane
a band that sounds pretty close to The Police (and has Sting's son in it) so hopefully we'll get to see them.
Posted 02 February 2009 - 02:30 PM
Truly amazing capture. What a perfect execution! A+++++ work.
Never stop shooting and sharing man. Never!
What an eye.
Posted 05 February 2009 - 05:25 AM
Posted 05 February 2009 - 03:49 PM
That Coca Cola sign is freakin' amazing!!!! As many times as I've been there its always looked like a Coke can...that shot is a mind-bender!
I poked around and actually found some video of them showing off the new screen and you can see people walking in the sign in the first shot (although this wasn't the night I took the photo)

Posted 06 February 2009 - 04:52 PM
where are the party pictures?!
hidden in the camera somewhere.
But, I'll take a look this weekend and email them over to you.
Posted 10 February 2009 - 05:51 PM
The only thing that saved most of the shots, was the use of flash. I found if I jelled the flash with a 3/4 CTO it gave enough fill without calling attention to it.
also got a few more shots accepted to jambands.com
including one of The Brew shots and a black and white of Joe Russo
from the Knitting Factory...
gonna see Cornmeal this weekend at the Blender for the moe. aftershow and hope to do Sharon Jones before, but am running into a little problem with that one...
Posted 16 February 2009 - 08:15 PM
First set was all them and the 2nd was almost all with Chuck and Al from moe.
Some really fun stuff including Shady Grove and Paul Simon's, "I Know, What I know"
Hopefully I'll add a few more later.
Boy I love shooting here, the lights at Blender are easily the best in the city, plus it was nice to get a few shots of Al and Chuck, since moe. appears to be limiting photo passes this year.
(oh and Allie looked quite fine)
Posted 18 February 2009 - 03:21 PM
Also I'm really happy with the way these have come out. I had a chance to shoot Sharon Jones about two years ago and the results were not all that good.
It feels really good to see the photos get better....
Binky Griptite
also in bad news, it appears as though Daptones Studio in Bushwick was robbed last night...
Posted 18 February 2009 - 03:22 PM
The clarity and crispness of each shot is amazing.
How do you do that?
Posted 18 February 2009 - 05:20 PM
I always try and keep the face in focus (unless there's a specific reason not to)
if people see that the face is in focus, they assume the rest is too. If you look at that last Cornmeal shot, the neck of the guitar and the fingers are out of focus and poorly exposed, but really all you care about is the nose, the eyes, and the hair being in focus, so it works.
I also took around 500 shots for the Cornmeal and Sharon Jones shows (this is a bit of an extreme, but there was alot of good lighting so I kept shooting). I would say probably 100 are out of focus, 100 are too dark, 100 are poorly framed or boring. Usually I can get that down to 15-20 shots out of that many that i actually like and can work on.
In photoshop I try my best to fix the exposure with the brights and darknesses, get the colors to look decent (especially trying to save the shots in complete red)
Then finish it up with a little sharpening for the focus points and unsharpening in the unfocused areas to reduce the obvious noise issues.
if you weren't serious, then I guess if you take enough shots, one or two has gotta work out, right
you got any fun Disco Biscuits ones from the past week?
Posted 18 February 2009 - 06:18 PM
Do you always shoot raw as well?
I have been having an issue with clarity lately.
I am actually about to look at my biscuits shoots from the weekend.
Gotta get on that.

Do you always shoot raw as well?
I have been having an issue with clarity lately.
I am actually about to look at my biscuits shoots from the weekend.
Gotta get on that.
yeah for any photo I think I'm going to work on, I shoot raw. With an 8 gig card, I can still fit around 500 shots on there, plus you can always delete the duds when there's a break in the action. I've found raw files really do give you more range to work with, from saving blown out highlights, to saving some shots from the "red light of death" and turning them into a decent color.
and thanks Jema, I like that one alot too

And thank you thank you thank you for that little tip regarding live photography, I've never really put that together in my head but it all sure makes sense. The eyes are amazing the way they gather information in a split second and send it back to us sometimes a little bit altered like in the case of the cornmeal shot the eyes give us the illusion of focus because we're familiar with what a guitar is and should look like.
How awesome!
Thanks for that man.
Another big tip and another thing to think about out there in the field.
Posted 25 February 2009 - 04:12 PM
Just wanted to throw another Sharon Jones shot up there from the other weekend.
Also got the Cornmeal and the Gene Ween Band shots up on thewaster.com
http://www.thewaster...oPage Temp.html
as well as more than a few shots up on jambands.com
of Cornmeal, Al Schnier, Allie Kral, and The Brew
and it looks like I'll be shooting Fiction Plane early Friday night at Arlene's Grocery
and then running straight over to the Canal Room for Pete Francis (of Dispatch) w/ Barefoot Truth.

hmmm well if you need a copy of photoshop, I'm sure we can find you one somewhere, although I'm still on CS2 w/ a CS3 upgrade, I might not be the best one to ask. Let me know though.
a shot I took from the roof of work the other day.

Thanks for inspiring.

Gene Ween show at Music Hall of Williamsburg was rescheduled for 2009-02-07
Did you happen to make that show? I was fortunate enough to be there...
anyway, can you give a little insight as to your equipment and camera settings, for us amateurs?
I am guessing you used ISO 3200, at least 1/250 sec, no flash ?
Posted 03 March 2009 - 09:51 PM
More than likely it's an issue of using say 200-400ISO and an f/1.8 or faster lens. I'll let JG fill you in on the details.

Nice shooting, man!

I am guessing you used ISO 3200, at least 1/250 sec, no flash ?
Lets see they're up above on post #31. That was a pretty tough one and I did use flash a bit. Its actually something I've been trying to work on lately, even for better lit bars to get a bit more fill or to get slight a reflection in the eyes.
In fact I think all of the Dave Dreiwitz's shots have a little bit in them, for me its about finding that sweet spot between being able to actually see some detail and shouting out I'M USING FLASH
It was the only way I could get any front lighting on him. Its going slowly (learning to use flash), but its really a tool I need to have, it kills me when I realize I'm not going to get any decent shots that night when I leave a badly lit bar.
Really I love Williamsburg as a fan, with all the levels and the multiple bars, but for shooting there's no pit and more importantly not much front lighting, so I'm really starting to hold a grudge against it.
Hopefully I'll figure out something before The New Deal gets there.
Anyway, for the settings go here
click on the image and then below on the right click on "more properties" it'll give you an idea of where I was shooting. The Nikon D300 does go up to an ISO of 6400, but I really try not to take it past 1600 or 2000, it really starts to get noisy and you lose all the detail that I try so hard to get. Usually I try and sit between 800 & 1600 depending on the show.
(check out this guy with the Nikon D3 at ISO 5000, it almost makes me cry )
Looks like I was shooting around 1/125 for this one, but yeah if possible I try and stay in the 1/125 to 1/250 range, obviously sometimes you need to go lower, but you get a ton more misses that way.
Posted 03 March 2009 - 10:38 PM
Do you use noise ninja or anything similar? your shots are remarkably noise free for the ISO.
Posted 04 March 2009 - 03:41 PM
Do you use noise ninja or anything similar? your shots are remarkably noise free for the ISO.
Not quite noise ninja, I tried it and didn't feel like I had enough control over it. I'd say some of the low noise is the camera itself. When I had the D50 the top ISO was 1600, but the sweet spot was around 800. For the D300 the top ISO is 6400, so sitting around 1600 still gets you a decent shot and as long as you don't push it too much farther in photoshop, you'll still be alright.
The other half of it is photoshop. Usually noise becomes apparent when its in an area of flat blackness or the out of focus areas, if its in the detailed area you don't notice it as much because there's so much going on. So at some point in the process I create a 2nd blur layer (either gaussian or smart) and then proceed to slowly erase out the areas on that layer that are in focus
in this photo (shot at 1600) normally the nose would show up in the smoke or in the black/red area at bottom right, but by blurring these areas it gets rid of the noise (and actually makes the face and hands look sharper)
ok lets get back to some photos
We got Pete Francis (formerly of Dispatch) and Barefoot Truth (out of Mystic Ct) at the Canal Room. Sort of light poppy music, a little Blues Traveler (with the harmonica) and Phish-esque (Sample in a Jar)
Very young crowd, but lots of room to dance and get up front, nice venue and terrific lighting too, I actually got the ISO down to 640 a few times, which was nice.
Pete Francis
Pete and his wife Katie
Hopefully get these finished up and out to thewaster.com and the publicist. thewaster.com also put up the Sharon Jones shots if anyone is interested http://www.thewaster... photopage.html
Posted 11 March 2009 - 02:17 PM
First off finally got a couple shots done from the Fiction Plane show at Arlene's Grocery. It was a fun quick set, although I think the highlight for me personally was having two of the guys sign my shots of them from Camp Bisco (silly me I only had a black sharpie and the shots were mostly black... duh)
Here's two of the shots.
Seton Daunt lead guitarist.
and Joe Sumner (Gordon Sumner's son)
looks more than a bit like his dad.
I wish I had more, but it was a tough shoot, mostly at an ISO 1600-2000 and pretty much whenever they moved around it got blurry or I lost focus (oh well)
Also over Christmas I had a chance to snap a couple pictures of Carla's cousin, Joey, man he's grown.
Here's from Easter.
Here's from Christmas
(working a bit with flash with mixed results and realizing I really need to gel lights indoor)
Also got a chance to revisit a few old shots of Zac Lasher (of U-Melt) from their Highline gig back in Sept.
Also thewaster.com has the rest of the shots up from Pete Francis and Barefoot Truth
http://www.thewaster... photopage.html
and has me on assignment to catch the former lead singer of The New Pornographers at the Bowery on Sunday, so that should be an interesting experience.

The Power of Independent Thinking
Dr. Lawrence J. McQuillan: Californias Public Pension Crisis
Recorded: Tuesday, June 17, 2014
On June 17, 2014, Sr. Fellow Lawrence McQuillan spoke at an event for supporters of the Independent Institute. Dr. McQuillan spoke about Californias state pension system, a topic he writes about frequently, including in his forthcoming book California Dreamin: Resolving the Public Pension Crisis.
First he defines the types of pension programs for state employees, he outlined how funding for the programs is not sustainable for the promises made to pension recipients. The state admits to an unfunded liability of $140 billion, but McQuillan says that is actually an underestimate. According to most economists, the true amount of the unfunded liability is $430 billion.
How did this happen? McQuillan explains and offers six solutions to keep the pension systems solvent.

25 Years of EPCRA
The Environmental Protection Agency marks 25 years since the passage of its federal Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) as part of the reauthorization for Superfund in 1986. EPCRA has played a significant role in protecting human health and the environment over the last quarter century by providing communities and emergency planners with valuable information on toxic chemical releases in their area.
Public demand for chemical release information skyrocketed in the mid-1980s after a deadly cloud of highly toxic pesticide killed thousands of people in Bhopal, India. Shortly thereafter, a serious chemical release at a plant in West Virginia hospitalized 100 individuals. These events led to the writing and passage of EPCRA by Congress that was signed by President Reagan in October 1986 and implemented in 1987.

18 U.S. Code § 3771 - Crime victims' rights
prev | next
(a) Rights of Crime Victims.— A crime victim has the following rights:
(2) The right to reasonable, accurate, and timely notice of any public court proceeding, or any parole proceeding, involving the crime or of any release or escape of the accused.
(3) The right not to be excluded from any such public court proceeding, unless the court, after receiving clear and convincing evidence, determines that testimony by the victim would be materially altered if the victim heard other testimony at that proceeding.
(4) The right to be reasonably heard at any public proceeding in the district court involving release, plea, sentencing, or any parole proceeding.
(b) Rights Afforded.—
(1) In general.— In any court proceeding involving an offense against a crime victim, the court shall ensure that the crime victim is afforded the rights described in subsection (a). Before making a determination described in subsection (a)(3), the court shall make every effort to permit the fullest attendance possible by the victim and shall consider reasonable alternatives to the exclusion of the victim from the criminal proceeding. The reasons for any decision denying relief under this chapter shall be clearly stated on the record.
(2) Habeas corpus proceedings.—
(A) In general.— In a Federal habeas corpus proceeding arising out of a State conviction, the court shall ensure that a crime victim is afforded the rights described in paragraphs (3), (4), (7), and (8) of subsection (a).
(B) Enforcement.—
(i) In general.— These rights may be enforced by the crime victim or the crime victim's lawful representative in the manner described in paragraphs (1) and (3) of subsection (d).
(C) Limitation.— This paragraph relates to the duties of a court in relation to the rights of a crime victim in Federal habeas corpus proceedings arising out of a State conviction, and does not give rise to any obligation or requirement applicable to personnel of any agency of the Executive Branch of the Federal Government.
(c) Best Efforts To Accord Rights.—
(1) Government.— Officers and employees of the Department of Justice and other departments and agencies of the United States engaged in the detection, investigation, or prosecution of crime shall make their best efforts to see that crime victims are notified of, and accorded, the rights described in subsection (a).
(2) Advice of attorney.— The prosecutor shall advise the crime victim that the crime victim can seek the advice of an attorney with respect to the rights described in subsection (a).
(d) Enforcement and Limitations.—
(1) Rights.— The crime victim or the crime victim's lawful representative, and the attorney for the Government may assert the rights described in subsection (a). A person accused of the crime may not obtain any form of relief under this chapter.
(2) Multiple crime victims.— In a case where the court finds that the number of crime victims makes it impracticable to accord all of the crime victims the rights described in subsection (a), the court shall fashion a reasonable procedure to give effect to this chapter that does not unduly complicate or prolong the proceedings.
(3) Motion for relief and writ of mandamus.— The rights described in subsection (a) shall be asserted in the district court in which a defendant is being prosecuted for the crime or, if no prosecution is underway, in the district court in the district in which the crime occurred. The district court shall take up and decide any motion asserting a victim's right forthwith. If the district court denies the relief sought, the movant may petition the court of appeals for a writ of mandamus. The court of appeals may issue the writ on the order of a single judge pursuant to circuit rule or the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. The court of appeals shall take up and decide such application forthwith within 72 hours after the petition has been filed. In no event shall proceedings be stayed or subject to a continuance of more than five days for purposes of enforcing this chapter. If the court of appeals denies the relief sought, the reasons for the denial shall be clearly stated on the record in a written opinion.
(4) Error.— In any appeal in a criminal case, the Government may assert as error the district court's denial of any crime victim's right in the proceeding to which the appeal relates.
(5) Limitation on relief.— In no case shall a failure to afford a right under this chapter provide grounds for a new trial. A victim may make a motion to re-open a plea or sentence only if—
(A) the victim has asserted the right to be heard before or during the proceeding at issue and such right was denied;
This paragraph does not affect the victim's right to restitution as provided in title 18, United States Code.
(6) No cause of action.— Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to authorize a cause of action for damages or to create, to enlarge, or to imply any duty or obligation to any victim or other person for the breach of which the United States or any of its officers or employees could be held liable in damages. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to impair the prosecutorial discretion of the Attorney General or any officer under his direction.
(e) Definitions.— For the purposes of this chapter, the term "crime victim" means a person directly and proximately harmed as a result of the commission of a Federal offense or an offense in the District of Columbia. In the case of a crime victim who is under 18 years of age, incompetent, incapacitated, or deceased, the legal guardians of the crime victim or the representatives of the crime victim's estate, family members, or any other persons appointed as suitable by the court, may assume the crime victim's rights under this chapter, but in no event shall the defendant be named as such guardian or representative.
(f) Procedures To Promote Compliance.—
(1) Regulations.— Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this chapter, the Attorney General of the United States shall promulgate regulations to enforce the rights of crime victims and to ensure compliance by responsible officials with the obligations described in law respecting crime victims.
(2) Contents.— The regulations promulgated under paragraph (1) shall—
(A) designate an administrative authority within the Department of Justice to receive and investigate complaints relating to the provision or violation of the rights of a crime victim;
(B) require a course of training for employees and offices of the Department of Justice that fail to comply with provisions of Federal law pertaining to the treatment of crime victims, and otherwise assist such employees and offices in responding more effectively to the needs of crime victims;
(C) contain disciplinary sanctions, including suspension or termination from employment, for employees of the Department of Justice who willfully or wantonly fail to comply with provisions of Federal law pertaining to the treatment of crime victims; and

The crumbling, bowl-shaped stone fountains in front of Roswell P. Flower Memorial Library will be restored this summer.
The Watertown City Council agreed informally Monday night to proceed with the project, even though bids came back about $31,000 higher than had been budgeted. Council members agreed unanimously to select low bidder Raymond E. Kelley Inc., Seneca Falls, to complete the work on the $259,900 base bid.
Lets go ahead with the whole project, Councilman Jeffrey M. Smith said.
The project will restore the fountains to the way they appeared when library benefactor Emma Flower Taylor had them installed in 1906, two years after the library opened.
The work includes restoring the cracked facade of the historic building, the marble front steps, fencing near the public sidewalk and one of the stone lions that greet library visitors. Work could start as soon as June and should take only a few weeks, said Kenneth A. Mix, city planning and community development coordinator.
Worried about damaging the lion if its moved during the restoration, the company will deduct $6,500 if it is restored on its base, Mr. Mix said. When the contract comes up next week, council members will decide whether to spend as much as $22,500 more to replace a stone piece on the porch and clean all of the marble stonemasonry and fencing.
Council members had hoped to have the project completed last year, but it had to be delayed after the city received no bids. This time, the Seneca Falls firm and three others submitted bids.
Visitors will be prohibited from walking on the lawn and sidewalk in front of the library once construction begins. The buildings front entrance has been closed to the public for more than a year because of fears that the soffit could become loose and fall off.

Video: NY Senator John Sampson Faces Criminal Charges
By Joseph Spector and Jon Campbell
ALBANY,NY-- A former Senate Democratic leader embezzled more than $440,000 in a decade-long scheme to take money from the foreclosure sales of four Brooklyn properties, federal prosecutors alleged Monday.
Sen. John Sampson, D-Brooklyn, was charged with two counts of embezzlement, five counts of obstruction of justice and two counts of making false statements, prosecutors said.
Sampson was once one of the state's most powerful lawmakers and took over the Democratic conference after a leadership coup led to a month-long stalemate in 2009. He held the post until last year, and on Monday, Senate Democrats stripped him of his position on the Senate Judiciary Committee. He also agreed to no longer sit with the Senate Democrats in Albany.
He is the latest in a remarkable string of legislative leaders busted over the past month in various corruption cases. Senate leaders Joseph Bruno, a Republican from the Albany area; and New York City Democrats Pedro Espada and Malcolm Smith were all charged in scandals in recent years.
Overall, 30 state lawmakers have dealt with legal and ethical troubles since 2000. Sampson is the fourth lawmaker in the past month to be charged criminally.
"The voters of New York state rightfully expect their elected officials to represent the voters' interests, not to trade on their positions of power to line their own pockets," U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch said in a statement. "As charged in the indictment, for years, Sen. John Sampson abused his position of public trust to steal from New Yorkers suffering from home foreclosure and from the very county he was elected to represent."
Sampson led the Senate Democrats when they controlled the chamber in 2009 and 2010, succeeding Sen. Malcolm Smith, a Queens Democrat currently facing federal bribery charges of his own. He continued in the post in 2011 and 2012 when Democrats lost the majority.
Sampson's attorney Zachary Carter told reporters outside the New York City court that the charges are not based on public corruption.
He pleaded not guilty and was released on $250,000 bail.
"There was a signal sent that this was about corruption, similar to recent allegations of corruption brought against others in high-profile cases," Carter said. "To that extent, that turns out to be false."
Some lawmakers and good-government groups said Sampson's case was another indication of the need for ethics and campaign-finance reform in Albany.
"We have to get money out of politics. We have to elect better candidates into the system, and that's the responsibility of the citizens and the parties," said Barbara Bartoletti, legislative director for the state League of Women Voters.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who vowed to clean up corruption in Albany when he took office in 2011, has proposed a number of measures to limit the power of money in politics, such as public financing of campaigns and curbing the influence of minor political parties. Cuomo and legislative leaders have yet to reach an agreement.
Cuomo on Monday urged lawmakers to act.
"Yes, there will always be bad actors in government," Cuomo said on "The Capitol Pressroom," an Albany-based public radio show. "It is incumbent upon us to reform the system so we make it harder to do and we make it easier to catch people who do break the system. This gives us a moment of reform."
Sen. Thomas Libous, R-Binghamton, said public financing of political campaigns wouldn't thwart what Sampson allegedly did. In fact, Senate Republicans point to Smith's arrest as a reason against public financing. Smith is accused of bribing Republican leaders to win the GOP nomination for New York City mayor -- which if successful would have provided him public funding for his campaign.
"Give me some good recommendations on how we can stop bad people from doing bad things," Libous said.
Charges against a sitting senator were expected this week after federal prosecutors revealed last week that former Sen. Shirley Huntley, D-Queens, had been wearing a wire on their behalf. In a sentencing memorandum for Huntley, the U.S. Attorney's office in Brooklyn said conversations between Huntley and three elected officials turned up evidence for prosecutors.
Between 1998 and 2008, Sampson allegedly embezzled the money as a court-appointed referee for foreclosure proceedings conducted in Supreme Court in Brooklyn. He was elected to the Senate in 1997. Sampson is accused of trying to hinder the investigation and to cultivate an informant with the U.S. Attorney's Office to provide him information about his case.
In the indictment, Sampson is accused of trying to find who was cooperating with the authorities, saying he would arrange to "take them out."
When interviewed by the FBI outside his home in July 2012, Sampson said the reason he asked the employee at the U.S. Attorney's Office for help was because he was not "good" with computers, prosecutors said.
As the interview concluded, the FBI agents advised Sampson that he had lied to them. When asked whether he wished to revise his statement, Sampson said: "Not everything I told you was false."
If convicted, Sampson faces up to 10 years of prison for each embezzlement charge, up to 10 years of imprisonment for a charge of obstruction of justice and up to 20 years of imprisonment for each of the remaining four charges related to obstruction of justice.
He could get up to five years of imprisonment for each false-statement charge.
Sampson last year earned $34,500 as the conference leader. He was succeeded in January by Sen. Andrea Stewart-Cousins, D-Yonkers, and earned $11,000 this year as ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Stewart-Cousins on Monday stripped Sampson of his post. Sampson will join Smith as Democratic senators who have been ousted from their conferences after an arrest; Smith was a member of the Independent Democratic Conference.
"These allegations are deeply disturbing. The alleged activity represents an offensive violation of the public trust for which there is no place in our government," Stewart-Cousins said in a statement.
Two days after Smith was charged last month, Assemblyman Eric Stevenson, D-Bronx, was accused of participating in his own bribery scheme.
Stevenson was busted after a colleague, Assemblyman Nelson Castro, D-Bronx, was also wearing a wire as part of a plea agreement on perjury charges. Castro resigned after federal prosecutors revealed he was an informant.
As part of that same probe into Smith, Spring Valley Mayor Noramie Jasmin and Deputy Mayor Deputy Mayor Joseph Desmaret were charged with mail fraud.
On Friday, Assemblyman William Boyland, D-Brooklyn, was hit with another corruption charge after prosecutors alleged he used public funds directed to a non-profit to print "Team Boyland" shirts and otherwise promote himself. Boyland had also been facing separate corruption charges.
Sen. Terry Gipson, D-Poughkeepsie, said he hopes the cases will ultimately lead to a cleansing at the Capitol.
"Quite frankly, I am glad that they have been caught, and I am glad that this is happening because the sooner that we purge this group of legislators, the bad apples, the sooner we can do some serious work," Gipson said.
Senate Independent Democratic Leader Jeff Klein, D-Bronx, said it was a "sad day, not only in the Senate but in the Legislature as a whole."
"Unfortunately, when any alleged crime is committed by any legislator -- both in the Senate or Assembly, Democrat or Republican -- it reflects badly on our legislative body as a whole," Klein said. "I think we have to move quickly to achieve our legislative agenda (and) try to put it behind us as best we can."

Mind-Body Medicine
Saybrook University announces a fully accredited PhD program in Integrative Mental Health – the only program of its kind in the country.
This new doctoral degree program in Mind-Body Medicine for mental health professionals provides evidence-based training in techniques that hospitals and the public are demanding.
The public increasingly wants to know about all of its mental health care options: not just therapy and drugs, but hypnosis, biofeedback, spiritual practices, nutrition, and more.
Hospitals and clinics are increasingly advertising for mental health professionals who have these skills – but aren't finding them. There simply isn't an opportunity for practitioners to get these skills in a way that is rigorous, evidence-based, and accredited.
Saybrook, a fully accredited university which for forty years has had faculty in the vanguard of developing complementary medicine and integrative health care, is meeting this demand with the announcement of its new PhD program in Integrative Mental Health – the only program of its kind.
Saybrook already has the world's leading accredited graduate programs in Mind-Body Medicine, with doctors and nurses who want to broaden their practice, along with health care administrators who want to understand how to support new treatments, enrolling as students. This new PhD program is designed for already licensed mental health professionals (and graduates with a licensable mental health degree), who want to offer patients a broader range of effective treatment options – options that patients themselves, informed by the internet and a thriving culture of complementary medicine, are increasingly asking for.
This new PhD program utilizes a hybrid learning model, allowing significant study online punctuated by visits to conferences with faculty and other students, allowing mental health professionals who enroll to continue their work while they advance their studies.
Saybrook's PhD in Integrative Mental Health will focus exclusively on evidence-based therapies from a variety of treatment options, taught by some of the leading experts in the field. These include:
- Clinical hypnosis
- Nutrition
- Guided imagery
- Somatic therapies
- Mindfulness techniques
- Biofeedback
- Narrative medicine
And others, including overviews of Chinese and Aryuvedic medicines.
This program is led by Dr. Donald Moss, chair of Saybrook's School of Mind-Body Medicine and an advisor to the International Network of Integrative Mental Health. Dr. Moss routinely travels around the world offering trainings to health care professionals in emerging integrative health techniques; he reports that the demand from mental health professionals drove Saybrook's decision to create the program.
"In the past two years, I have met with health and mental health professionals from China to Poland, from Texas to Washington State, and found a well-informed hunger for a comprehensive education in an integrative, holistic approach to mental health problems. Both patients and caregivers are frustrated with the healthcare establishment's overemphasis on pharmaceutical approaches, and are asking for guidance in applying mind-body skills, Ayurvedic medicine, nutrition, and other alternative therapies to emotional disorders and psychiatric problems."
The program will be particularly attractive, he notes, because mental health professionals with a licensable graduate mental health degree can transfer up to 30 credits into the Saybrook PhD – a recognition of their already existing expertise in the fundamentals of mental health care.
"The Saybrook School of Mind-Body Medicine has attracted a rich collection of gifted graduate students, with backgrounds in the humanities, spiritual studies, medicine, as well as mental health care. Our students are already establishing a reputation for themselves and our program, by professional presentations at conferences from Rio de Janeiro to Washington DC, on nutrition and health, hypnosis, biofeedback, and other integrative approaches to health. We are now looking to extend the scope of our School with the Integrative Mental Health PhD program."
Would love to find out about the cost of the program and length. Thanks, TomPosted by Tom Eggert (not verified) | 06/19/2013 @ 02:59 PM
I'd love to do this program, but can't afford it. I hope it takes off.Posted by Susan Ruby (not verified) | 06/21/2013 @ 10:22 AM
Just wanted to let you know as a current student of the MBM Ph.D. program that it is well worth the cost. The majority of students are utilizing student loans with the strong belief and expectation that there will be opportunities to utilize these skills in innovative and financially rewarding ways. I would be happy to connect with anyone who is interested in learning more about my experience here at Saybrook.

Around the Who What Wear headquarters, one of our favorite things to trackÂ--aside from the latest trendsÂ--is the success of our former interns. And how could it not be, especially when talented ladies like jewelry designer Amanda Thomas bring their coveted time, skill, and creative energy to our fashion-minded hub! A recent graduate of Otis College of Design, Thomas started making handcrafted jewelry at the tender age of fifteen, using antique chains and charms she unearthed at flea markets to create pieces for her friends. After a little artistic experimentation with different aesthetics, Thomas cultivated her signature styleÂ--a unique mix of vintage chains, eye-catching stones, and metalworkÂ--and by her senior year of high school, the commissions for her one-of-a-kind pieces were pouring in. But crafting baubles was merely a hobby until one fortuitous day when Thomas was innocuously shopping at Fred Segal wearing one of her own designs. One of the store's jewelry buyers noticed her necklace, and then promptly purchased all of the pieces Thomas had created and requested more. With one boutique order secured and a few more on the horizon, Thomas christened the gritty-yet-girly line Luv AJÂ--a longtime family nickname.
Now fresh out of college, Thomas is dedicating herself to LuvAJ full-time and has transitioned from designing one-off pieces to fully producible collections. Her debut lookbookÂ--inspired by the rough-and-tumble vibe of Steve McQueen's iconic filmsÂ--is filled with handmade chunky gold chains, spiked multi-finger rings, and armor-worthy body jewelry. We've pulled a few standout pieces to showcase today, but we urge you check out Thomas' full collection, too. Hopefully you'll enjoy all of her lovely wares and be equally inspired by her journey from hobbyist to full-fledged designer extraordinaireÂ--we certainly are!
Copper Bullitt Bracelet ($130)
The copper color of the layered chains makes this chunky statement bracelet unique and contrasts nicely with the sleekness of the silver cylinder details. We'd use it to add edge to a polished ensemble consisting of a tan blazer, light-wash jeans, and patent nude heels.
Fool's Gold Loop Earrings ($65)
Thomas was wearing these cutting-edge chandelier earrings when she came to drop off her jewelry for our photo shoot, and we loved how amazing they looked on! The mixed materialsÂ--gold chain and fool's goldÂ--lend themselves nicely to fashion-forward daytime basics like a sheer button-down, black jeans, and motorcycle boots. However, we could see them being an equally exciting option when used as a high-contrast accessory with a polished cocktail frock.
Ruffle Chain Necklace ($130)
The inherent girliness of a ruffle-patterned necklace gets a dose of Balmain-style tough-girl edginess when crafted in heavy-duty oversized chain. This alluring balance makes this chunky choker perfect for everyday wear; we'd use it to spice up a distressed t-shirt and jeans or you could pair it with contrasting denim separates for an on-trend look.
Fool's Gold Knucklebuster ($90)
Ever since we saw Rihanna sporting multi-finger rings, we've been ga-ga for this rockstar-worthy accessory. We like how Thomas's version combines the semi-precious feel of the blingy fool's gold with the inherent toughness of raw-cut stone. The result is an artistically intriguing bauble that feels simultaneously classic and cutting-edge
Spike Knucklebuster Ring ($100)
With this spiked ring on your finger, no one will dare mess with your style-setting self. Use it to add a kitschy insouciance to a girly, floral romper or upgrade your LBD from directional to dangerously sexy for a seriously fashionable girls-night-out.
Cross Armor Ring ($20)
Surprisingly delicate, this petite gold ring is a great everyday piece. The cross shape is ideal for providing architectural interest when paired with other simpler bands, or it can be worn solo for a more understated, streamlined look.Â--Liza Kaplan

Itasha (痛車), literally "painmobile", are cars covered with anime, manga, or video game themed stickers. This Delorean is wrapped in Japanese anime Haiyore! Nyaruko-san and was on display at a recent itasha gathering in Tokyo's Odaiba.
If you are going to build an itasha, why not do it with style? Besides, the stainless-steel construction makes the stickers stand out.
Below are photos of the nerd-coated vehicle, courtesy of Carlife Navi.
Love that Back to the Future font for Haiyore! Nyaruko-san.

Laurie Carr of Beyond the Blueshirts reports that 2009
seventh-round pick Mikhail
Pashnin will play in North America this year.
Carr's report is supported by Dmitry Chesnokov, who's always
in the know about Russian players. Chesnokov reports that Pashnin has a
contract offer from the Rangers.
Pashnin was an intriguing pick two years ago. Teams were very tempted by his potential,
but most were scared off by his supposed commitment to the KHL.
Pashnin was the first-overall pick of the first KHL Draft in
2009, but today's reports of a move to North America
indicates that Pashnin is set on making it to the NHL.
Pashnin stands just 5-11, 190 lbs, but he may be the
Rangers' most physically imposing prospect after Dylan McIlrath. At the team's prospects camp in June Pashnin
drew positive reviews from many in attendance and was hitting everything in
Pashnin only posted three
goals and six assists in 77 games over the last two seasons with CSKA
Moscow, but he's purely a stay at home defenseman and a good one at that.
If Pashnin does come to North America,
it's likely that he'll play for the CT Whale alongside fellow prospects Pavel
Valentenko and Tomas Kundratek, and former NHLer Wade Redden.
Pashnin will need seasoning in the AHL, but he played
against a high level of competition last year in the KHL. He's probably not going to make it to New York this year, but
Pashnin has flown under the radar overseas and could be a surprise at training
