We shouldn't be afraid to admit that sometimes we fall in love with games that aren't AAA titles, games that aren't popular, or games that aren't actually very "good". Here lies a story of such forbidden love.
I've been wanting to bring the next installment of the Guilty Pleasures series for a while now, and there's no better time than the present to make it happen. My first entry both detailed the designs of the platformer game The Hobbit, as well as explained my experience with it. This series isn't simply about fanboy love, rose-tinted glasses, or reviews. It's about looking at games I play and enjoy, and asking myself in every sense "Why". So without further ado, Autobots, let us roll.
2003 was a pretty good year for gaming. It saw the releases of games like Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, GTA Vice City, Silent Hill 3, Beyond Good & Evil, and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. There were however a couple odd smaller titles in 2003 that became permanant parts of my collection. Games that you might look at, or play for yourself, and wonder why I enjoyed playing them then, and still enjoy playing them now. The first of these was developer Sierra's stealth-action-adventure-platformer The Hobbit. With this new entry I want to talk about Romanian developer Fun Lab's first-person-shooter-hunting-simulation Cabela's Dangerous Hunts.
The game Dangerous Hunts is the first in a particular Cabela's series that has lasted from the original 2003 entry (the game this blog is about) all the way to the present, seeing it's most recent release with Dangerous Hunts 2011. By the time Dangerous Hunts released in 03', Bungie, a few years earlier, had already proven to PC shooter snobs that shooters could work well on consoles with Halo, and the console shooter craze we observe today was building momentum. We were getting accustomed to shooters playing smoother and faster than we could have ever experienced with the likes of Goldeneye 007 for Nintendo 64.
I'm not convinced that Dangerous Hunts was part of any bandwagon or movement in the industry as far as shooters go. Dangerous Hunts from day one seemed like a niche title, and even today I can't see the series as anything more than a niche series where people like me come along and pick it up so we can scurry back to our dens and simulate rubbing Buck urine all over ourselves. I know your eager eyes want to see the game, so let's take a look.
Keep in mind this was 2003. It's no CryEngine3 but, to be fair, Dangerous Hunts hasn't aged as badly as you'd expect
Textures wash out when you look at a screenshot and have time to scrutinize. But once the game is running live, your eyes forgive it quite a bit. Cabela's looks better in real-time, as do most games
As I mentioned earlier, Dangerous Hunts is in first-person. However, there are instances when the camera switches to third person, like when animals get in close proximity to the player, and when animals attack the player
The snow simulating particle effects are pretty neat, and the game certainly has a little variety in the color palettes used in its environment designs
What is Dangerous Hunts
Let's quickly explore the appeal and "hook" of the game and why I'd want to simulate hunting. I live in Colorado and we have plenty of mountains, wilderness, and hunting to go around, but I've never been on a real hunt. Some of that is ethical, but most of it is simple logic. I have the modern luxury of choosing not to. I can get food easily, I don't need meat stuffing my freezer to the gills for months, plus I like fishing better. I definitely attach to the appeal of simulating hunting though. I could try and theorize the psychology of it but it would likely bore the shit right out of you. I don't hunt but I simulate hunting, I fish but I don't play fishing-sim games. Escapism? Evolution? My brain trying to compensate for skills I haven't developed in real life? I'll leave those questions up to Dr. Phil (as if he knows a damn thing lol. His doctorate title is as fake as my confidence).
One of the things I love about playing Dangerous Hunts is the serenity it imparts to the player. From the sound design and visual presentation, to the level design, the game gives you an atmosphere in which you are amongst the elements. There is no orchestral bombast to be the soundtrack to your escapades, no NPCs bugging you, and no zombies or Flood to deal with. As you move around a level all you hear is natural ambient noise, water flowing, wind blowing, your footsteps, and animals making noise in the distance. If you manage to successfully sneak up on your target, and have avoided being eaten by predators in the process, you can pull the trigger and a loud shot is all that will disturb the serenity. When it comes to the visual presentation this next screenshot shows one of my favorite things about the art.
I love the skybox in Dangerous Hunts. The lighting, colors, and the pace that clouds move are just right. When you look up at the light source (the Sun) you begin seeing the Sun's "halo" optical phenomenon, as well as rays coming away from it, and the proportions and appearance of the effects change smoothly as your viewing angle changes
So the idea of simulating hunting is great, the atmosphere is great, but let's get to the guts of the game, it's gameplay. I rightfully called this game an FPS, but Dangerous Hunts has as many RPG and survival genre features in mind as it does first-person shooter features. Seeing as this is a mediocre niche FPS title you might assume that it would give up and be a bare-bones shooter with nothing to offer but movement, strafing, looking around, and shooting. You'd be dead wrong. When you begin the game you are able to create a character and choose between classes. Now when I say classes don't get your hopes up, there's no beastly Dwarf, long-legged Elf, or Human with giant breasts.
The classes are broken up by sex and age demographic like Adult Male, Adult Female, Young Male, Young Female, Older Male, Older Female, and each class has statistical differences that make enough sense and seem harmless enough, but for the more sensitive people reading this, you might be offended by the game's gender stereotyping and sexism. For example the Young Male is stronger and more resiliant, while the Young Female is weak but has better shooting skill and animal tracking. The older characters are all weak but their experience has led them to better tracking and stealth skills. All characters can be upgraded as you complete missions in Career Hunt though so if your Female is a weakling, she doesn't have to be forever. Plus you can compensate for statistical differences a bit by buying certain gear and preparing yourself well, as well as just using good strategy. Let's get a look at a couple of these "classes" and while we are at it I want to show you the stat system.
Her character strikes a decent enough balance at the moment
This jabroni is tough and knows how to shoot, but he's as stealthy as an elephant walking on bubble wrap
Skills like shooting, stealth, and tracking are pretty straitforward. Shooting skill increases stability of your shots, stealth makes you harder to detect, and tracking increases your chances of picking up animal tracks. The strength and resilience skills are a bit more complicated because they appear to affect a host of seperate traits that make themselves known when you play. I will look at those extra traits in a moment
So once you pick a character you can take your character and use him or her in any of 3 game-play modes. Quick Hunt, Action Zone, and Career Hunt. Talk about a buffet of win. Quick Hunt is self-explanatory and lets you get into a hunt quickly, but the great thing is that you can customize the whole experience by using whatever weapons, clothing, and accessories you want, and the money you use doesn't have to be earned. In Quick Hunt you are also able to choose the level, season, what animal you want to hunt, and buy a tag for said animal. Action Zone is like an arcade kind of mode where you complete odd tasks and missions and each time you complete one it unlocks some more. From what I remember Career Hunt isn't too different from Action Zone, but Career Hunt has a story I guess lol, plus you have to earn your money for equipment, and you can earn skill points. I mostly just do Quick Hunt because it's fast to get into, completely customizable, and a story isn't forced on me.
When you go on a hunt the level loads up, there's a short cut-scene showing brief scenes of the animals in that level and what they're up to. Maybe you bought a license to hunt a deer and so the scene will show you a couple deer to pick from all around the map grazing, sleeping, etc, but it might also show a few wolves, mountain lions, or other predators wandering around (you might run into them at some point, you might not). The levels themselves are almost all wide-open and have various paths connecting open areas together, and there's no start and end. It's a sandbox for you to hunt in. While wandering around you can use whatever loot you bought like attractive scents, scent covers, salt licks, predator calls, pieces of meat, tree stands, ground blinds, and decoy animal statues. I don't use too much equipment, I just sneak around till I see my target, and then I find the best time to snipe it with my rifle, use my bow, or if I'm feeling frisky I might get close with a shotgun or knife. Let's take a look first at one of the level designs, and then at some of the gear you can aquire.
Using a GPS tool to look at a topographical map of the Parkland, Alberta level. Mountains on the outskirts form the boundaries to this level, and within the boundaries the encounter spaces consist of a variety of open areas connected by paths and portions of the river that can be crossed
I wasn't kidding when I talked about rubbing urine all over yourself lol. Equipment costs money, has weight to it, and the amount you carry effects how quickly your character gets tired when out in the field. This player so far has a lever-action rifle with 30 rounds, a revolver with 20 rounds, a scope for his rifle, and an animal-call of some kind
Earlier I was showing you that "under the hood" of Dangerous Hunts, the game is run by an RPG inspired statistical system that effects your character. I mentioned there were some extra stats that you notice when you finally get into the game. On the HUD (heads-up-display) you will notice a health gauge and stamina gauge, as well as condition, nutrition, and hydration meters. Here's a screenshot of the HUD for reference as I explain the components.
Starting with the bottom left side of the HUD: On top is a compass. Directly below is a health gauge represented by a heartbeat monitor. To the left of the health gauge is a stamina gauge represented by a verticle green bar. Your character's levels of condition, nutrition, and hydration are quantified in meters as blue blocks
I've been playing this game for years and I still don't fully understand how all these meters work, nor have I fully put them all to the test. Your health gauge is represented by a heartbeat monitor and its color will change as you take damage. You can purchase a medical kit before beginning a level so that you can heal yourself out in the field. The stamina gauge depletes as you run around, and regenerates once you slow down or stop. In the event the stamina gauge depletes and forces you to slow down while it regenerates, the fact that you depleted it will effect your condition meter by chopping off blue blocks. Nutrition and hydration deplete as you stay out in a level longer and undergo stresses to all the other gauges and meters. You can replenish nutrition and hydration by purchasing a corresponding hyrdration bladder or MRE (meal-ready-to-eat). In practice, this system is convoluted and I've never had to worry much about starving to death, dying of thirst, etc. I'm never out in a level long enough to see the meters deplete, and I'm not sure what happens when they do deplete. The overall health and hunting effectiveness of your character is represented and run by a fairly deep and intricate system that doesn't make much sense and there's quite a lot of variables and systems interacting with eachother in ways that aren't always clear.
So this system of stats doesn't work very effectively or clearly in practice, but that's not what's important to me. What's surprising is the fact these deep and intricate systems even exist in the first place. They could've just given me a gun, and put me in front of some animals, right? Nope. Obviously the developers were striving for far more than just a simple shooting gallery. The systems of health, stamina, condition, nutrition, and hydration indicate an urge to make the player feel like they are surviving out in the wild and must care for their character's bodily needs in addition to the primary goal of hunting successfully. Even though it doesn't work too well in practice for this game, I'm inspired by the efforts of the developer because their design shows a unique and ambitious vision. If this system were to be fleshed out it could offer a style of gameplay that you don't find in other games.
The way I see it, Dangerous Hunts could be considered a prototype for a game that should strive to achieve flexible open-world level designs, dynamic encounters, animals programmed to simulate living in ecosystems, shooter mechanics, survival genre sensibilities, inventory management, customizable characters and weapons, and a RPG statistical system under the hood powering it all.
Successfully hunting an animal will reward you with a boat-load of data to give your target an identity, as well as data to rate your hunt, and loot to reward your patience and skill. When you kill "nameless terrorist # 117" in a normal FPS, it's a very different experience
To begin wrapping up my thoughts on what this particular installment of the Dangerous Hunts franchise is, I want to mention the AI in the game as well as the technical polish of the game. One of the things that makes this game's experience dynamic is the fact that predators and prey occupy levels together and will sometimes interact with one another by chasing each other, eating each other, and sometimes the animal you're hunting might be taken advantage of by a predator other than you. In 2008 the reboot of the Turok: Dinosaur Hunter franchise touted its AI by saying that dinosaurs would interact with each other and represent a dynamic ecosystem. I wasn't too surprised by that bullet point, because I had already seen it work in Dangerous Hunts in 2003.
There have been plenty of times where I start a level, set out to hunt my Moose, and at some point I sneak upon a frantic real-time scene where my Moose is being hounded by a pack of wolves and eventually eaten. My mission ends unsuccessfully, but I'm stuck thinking, "Wow wolves iz dicks, but that was cool!" The wolves did what they were programmed to do, and that is act like wolves. The variety of animals create a sense of ecosystem, and they let you know you're not the only predator in the world looking for a kill. Sometimes predators will find your target naturally and hunt it themselves, sometimes they will come across you and force you into a kill or be killed situation, and sometimes the other predators in a level won't ever come across prey or the player character.
In regards to the technical polish of the game, it's very stable and reliable. I've been playing for years and I can't remember ever encountering a single freeze, corrupt save file, game breaking bug, or even expected glitches like seeing animals phase through walls. My experience has been very clean and consistent.
Similar to real life, the cape buffalo can be extremely hostile. Coming across aggressive animals or predators happens sometimes, and they don't usually want to have a picnic...
...Except this guy. "ROARZ! LET'S HAZ PICNIC!"
What I love most about Dangerous Hunts
My favorite thing to do in this game is take extremely long shots at an animal from across the map. I like loading a wide-open level, equipping a powerful rifle, and taking shots at a target that's so far away it's not even visible. You have to play on Easy difficulty to do this because on Easy, the game will put red markers over all animals on the map and you will be able to see the red marker at all times as you move around, and as the animal itself moves around. So, I see where the red dots are in the distance, I try to get to highground like a hill (and I deploy a tripod stand to perch myself on to get extra height), and I begin taking shots to "see where the animals are". In Dangerous Hunts when you fire a bullet or arrow it will always show you a skippable bullet-cam scene where you see exactly where your round is going and the journey it takes to an animal. I exploit this feature and use it as an overhead drone. I shoot across a level and as my bullet passes over terrain I study the land to see where animals are, if they're in a valley, hidden by trees, in a place where a bullet can get to them, etc.
Even though the animals are so distant they can't be seen, if your drone reconaissance reveals that the animal is in a clear line-of-sight, you can start preparing your shot. Your bullet will change trajectory as it travels over a distance, so you have to compensate for the curve of the bullet by aiming high. There's some pretty satisfying sniper experiences out there in shooters, like exploding people's heads in Gears of War, but there's truly nothing like sniping in Dangerous Hunts. When you line up a shot at a moose from a few hundred yards away, take your shot, see it fly over hills, through trees, narrowly missing terrain, the suspense and anticipation go through the roof. Clouds fly by in the sky above, the bullet dips as it travels the great distance, and you see it finally impact straight into the oblivious moose for a clean instantaneous kill. It's enough to make you toss your controller in the air and jump for joy lol.
Why Dangerous Hunts is different
Now I don't usually rant about things, and I promise this series won't always involve ranting but with the final part of this entry I feel the need to explain why this original Cabela's Dangerous Hunts is so important, and why I'm not showing the same love to the other games in the series. As I've been showing you, Dangerous Hunts is a lesser-known niche game that sports very uncharacteristically complex systems with a unique multi-genre influence behind it. The same can't be said for the more recent installments of the Dangerous Hunts series. After this original 2003 installment, future games in the series immediatly started turning into story-driven FPS games with a focus on action and drama.
Back of the box for Dangerous Hunts 2009. Look at all the bullet-points and notice how there are no Quick Hunt, Action Mode, Career Hunt, etc being advertised. Basically there's not much variety to this game. You don't choose your own pace, have any control over the environment, or the mission. Every single picture shows the player getting attacked by rabid, hyper-violent critters
I bought Dangerous Hunts 2009 in hopes that it would carry on the gameplay and visions of the 2003 iteration but what I got was completely different than what I expected. Lol, this gets really ridiculous guys and even though I hate it, I have to admit it's hilarious. The game focuses on Abraham Flint (the guy is a gross stereotype of a redneck, gun-toting, self-appointed badass who has no respect for nature) who takes a trip Russia with his buddy Sergei, and while they're hunting in Russia, Flint's comrade Sergei gets killed by a bear. So being the sensible guy Flint is, his natural reaction to this tragedy is that he convinces himself he must travel the world and hunt dangerous animals to become the world's greatest hunter. LOL! The premise is absurd, the voice acting and script are even worse, and the way it represents "hunting" and "animals" are quite offensive to me.
As far as gameplay is concerned, levels are littered with quick-time-events (QTE's) where Flint gets attacked by savage animals and must wrestle them or toss them around to protect himself before eventually putting bullets in their skulls. In the first level one of your goals is to protect a camp of hunters from an invading pack of lions. The animals in this game no longer act like animals do, and they no longer live in ecosystems. The animals in Dangerous Hunts 2009 are just basically single-minded enemies from any FPS. If you replaced these animals with Nazis, you could call this game Medal of Honor. In the 2003 original, the game at least showed a measure of respect by trying to create a realistic world where animals lived and acted realistically. In the newer games, the atmosphere and narrative has become the gaming embodiment of everything horrible about sport hunting, psychos with guns, and animal themed horror films.
There's nothing I need to say about the story except, "Why?". Since when does a hunting simulation need a story? If all you can come up with is Flint, Sergei, hyper-violent animals, and hyper-masculine hunting conquest, why make a story at all? Honestly if there was a Quick Hunt mode where I could just do whatever I wanted, customize the experience as well as my character, and ignore the seperate story mode, I would just forgive these newer Dangerous Hunts games and possibly even adore them. When I play the original 2003 game, I don't have to endure a fast-paced forced story, I can just simulate hunting in ways that I want to do it.
Nothing says "good story" like taking a Desert Eagle and using it to blast a polar bear while it chases a helpless native
If I don't wipe out all these lions, people wont think I'm a badass! Get ready to die assholes! U-S-A! U-S-A!
The visuals are beautiful, but that's the only great thing the newer Dangerous Hunts add to the series. Cue up the next quick-time-event please!
So the Dangerous Hunts series has come a long way and turned into a franchise I don't want to play anymore, but I wanted to take this time to show love to the original game so that people know it wasn't always like this, and we can do much better than what we have at the moment. The 2003 original wasn't excellent in its execution, but it had more depth, variety, and apparent ambition than most games have even today in 2012.
I really want this series to ignore the status-quo, return to its roots, flesh out the great ideas it started with, and make something unique and sophisticated for a contemporary audience. Let's turn this series around, get rid of the melodrama, and end the wilderness soap-opera antics. Gamers aren't stupid, give them choices, challenge them! Program the animals to act like real animals, create large open levels, allow upgrades, customization, personalization, inventory management, exploration, stealth, survival, and hunting all running on an RPG stat-based system. Also, don't shove a hilariously bad story down their throats. I love the 2003 Dangerous Hunts and I want another great realistic hunting-sim.
When it comes to this old chestnut of a game, nostalgia can only account for so much of my love. In its design, the original Calbela's Dangerous Hunts is actually a very solid, consistent, fun game, with plenty of choice, variety, beautiful environments, and interesting mechanics. It's not an amazing game by any means and it doesn't need to have a place in anybody's "best of all time" lists, but this game does have a place in my collection as well as in my heart. And that's good enough for me.
With this edition of Guilty Pleasures finished and online for all of you to read, I can finally move on out of the 2003 theme. The series definitely isn't confined to odd 2003 titles lol. The Hobbit and Cabela's Dangerous Hunts just happened to come out the same year and I figured I'd add that fact into the narrative for these two entries. Future Guilty Pleasures entries will be about any and all games I have a guilty pleasure for, and there are many good ones to look forward to!

Sick and Tired of Feeling Sick and Tired.
Q: For the last three months I am tired all the time and my stomach is upset all the time. My doctor ran tests but nothing came up. Also my joints are throbbing all the time. My mom has fibromyalgia and she was wondering if I could also have that.
Thank you for your question. When results for problematic symptoms turn up normal, it can be frustrating. It is always a good idea to ask you doctor if it "could be anything else" other than the disease he tested for or if "retesting is warranted" after a period of time.
The reason I mention this is because Fibromyalgia is a diagnosis of exclusion meaning we diagnose someone with it after all other possible conditions have been ruled out.
Fibromyalgia still remains poorly studied but we do know that it is hereditary (runs in families) and is worsened by physical and emotional stresses. Prescription medications are an option and have varying levels of success.
The most important thing in fibromyalgia is to find a treatment that works for you through trial and error. Some people prefer vigorous exercise, others prefer rest. Some people prefer hot compresses, others prefer cold treatments. Some people have had success with alternative health care practitioners and others have had success with enhancing their socialization. The reported success of these vastly different treatment modalities underlines how little we truly understand about Fibromyalgia.

State officials kept silent on CWD discovery at game farm
A state agriculture official acknowledged Friday that a second case of chronic wasting disease at a shooting preserve in Marathon County turned up on Feb. 24, but the agency declined to publicize the discovery.
The Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection released a statement on the first case on Dec. 2. But State Veterinarian Paul McGraw said the agency opted not to inform the public of a second finding because it occurred on the same farm as the first.
The first deer had been shot in November 2013. In the second case, agriculture officials on Friday said personnel were not available to locate records showing when the deer was killed.
McGraw also said deer on the shooting preserve only leave one way — dead.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel learned of the newest case from veterinarian and former Natural Resources Board member David Clausen of Amery.
Events surrounding the finding also provide a rare glimpse of a recent tug-of-war over scientific issues between agencies under Gov. Scott Walker.
The Department of Natural Resources has raised questions over disease transmission with its sister agency. Clausen also objected, specifically, to McGraw's suggestion that CWD could suddenly appear in a new location by a spontaneous occurrence.
Clausensays the agriculture department should make all discoveries public because of the widespread interest in the fatal deer disease.
Chronic wasting disease was discovered in western Dane County in 2002. The disease has since been found in 18 counties, both in the wild and on game farms. The state has spent more than $35 million to combat it since 2002.
"I think the fact that they didn't release this one shows that CWD is not a particularly high priority for the department of agriculture," Clausen said.
Clausen's term on the policy-setting board of the Department of Natural Resources expired in 2013. He has been critical of the DNR for not being aggressive enough in trying to control the spread of the disease.
Clausen said he was frustrated with the agriculture department because chronic wasting disease inevitably spreads, its prevalence increases, "and there is always the chance of escape from a farm," Clausen said.
The biggest outbreak on a deer farm occurred in Portage County, where 82 deer tested positive in 2006. The outbreak is believed to be the highest infection rate for a captive deer herd in the U.S. Authorities killed all of the deer in the herd, but not before officials discovered a hole in the fence and an estimated 30 deer escaped and were never found.
Portage County has since had four positive cases of the disease.
The disease is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, or TSE, caused by an infectious agent known as a prion and is spread by deer-to-deer contact and through a disease-contaminated environment such as soil.
The prions invade the brains of deer and eventually cause them to waste away. There is no definitive research showing humans can be harmed from eating diseased deer, but health experts don't recommend it.
McGraw agreed that more diseased deer are likely to be found at the shooting preserve, Wilderness Whitetails. But he said the agency doesn't routinely report new outbreaks of other diseases.
"It was a deer born in that preserve and there had already been a positive in that preserve so it didn't change anything," McGraw said.
In the first case, the deer that tested positive had greater contact with other deer because it lived for a time on a separate breeding farm. The agriculture department traced 81 deer to farms in Wisconsin and seven other states from the time the buck was housed there.
McGraw contacted the DNR on Feb. 25, the day he learned of the lab results; he also contacted the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
In Wisconsin, the agriculture department regulates captive animals and the DNR regulates wildlife.
"We didn't feel it was our place to make an announcement," said Tom Hauge, director of the bureau of wildlife management at the DNR. "Since they regulate captive cervid facilities, we try not to get in their sand box."
The DNR routinely makes announcements when the disease reaches a new county in the wild, but not when there are new finds within the county, Hauge said.
The initial discovery at Wilderness Whitetails was the first in five years. In trying to explain the sudden appearance, McGraw cited several possibilities for transmission, including the chance it occurred spontaneously.
That drew attention of Clausen and wildlife staff at the DNR. Clausen said he knew of no peer-reviewed research showing the disease turned up that way.
Tami Ryan, wildlife health section chief with the DNR, asked the agriculture department to back up the claim.
Richard Bourie, a veterinarian, pointed to a paper by Nobel Laureate Stanley Prusiner of the University of California, San Francisco, who discussed spontaneous occurrence in TSEs.
Ryan wrote back and said, "to the best of our collective knowledge, spontaneous CWD in wild deer has not been substantiated," although she said the DNR wasn't trying to pick a fight.
Said McGraw: "There is no battle going on here. We all read science here. Everybody looks at different possibilities."

Dept hunting new markets
Published 16/01/2013 | 06:00
The Department of Agriculture is continuing to push for the reopening of new markets for Irish food, a senior official told Bord Bia's Meat Markets Prospects Seminar.
Department of Agriculture assistant secretary, Philip Carroll, said opening new markets was critical to the continued growth in exports from the food sector.
The latest figures from Bord Bia show a 27pc lift in food and drink exports to Third Country markets, with volumes increasing by €200m in value terms to €2.4bn.
Mr Carroll cited the recent reopening of the United Arab Emirates market for Irish sheep-meat exports as evidence of the progress the department was making.
He said he was "hopeful" that the Australian market would open for pork exports this year.
Progress had also been made in relation to Vietnam and Mr Carroll said a decision on access was expected in the next few months.
China and Ireland had established a joint working group to look at the whole question of beef and sheep-meat exports to that country, while negotiations were also continuing with South Korea and Japan.
In relation to the US market, Mr Carroll said "some traction" could be possible by this summer.

The Don Restaurant
The Don Restaurant and Bistro is on the former site of the Sandeman Port company, in the Courtyard at 20 St Swithins Lane, EC4 close to the Bank of England.
Sandeman bottled their ports,sherries and madeiras there for almost 200 years from 1798 -so its not surprising that the Don is famed throughout the City for its award-winning wine list, a perfect foil for its modern European menu and highly professional service.

Review for the Restaurant side - It's a great spot for a business lunch but they are VERY SLOW.
You get a spacious area to discuss but for the level of quality I would expect them to check their tables to ensure it's not wobbly!
Food was average - great scallops though. My medium lamb was super rare!more
Excellent place for a business dinner, tables not too close together giving a bit of privacy.
Staff excellent and food very good.more
I recently dined at the Don. If coming for a business lunch, be prepared to spend a bit more time waiting for food to arrive after ordering. Service can be a bit delayed. Service quality is outstanding, although again, be prepared to wait.
I found the food to be okay. I ordered the beef filet and found it to be a bit tough. I ordered it medium rare and it was prepared correctly but maybe...more
First impression visiting this place: welcoming feel, charming staff, delicious canapes and lovely bubbly. I went there for a Nicolas Feuillatte champagne tasting so I haven't tried the restaurant properly.yet. From what I could see, they have a large selection of wines, set menus as well as a La Carte and a downstairs 'cavernous-type' sitting area where I could see myself dining soon. Having...more

The American Red Cross encourages all eligible blood donors to make an appointment to donate blood soon to help prevent a shortage.
During the summer months, on average, about two fewer donors give blood at each Red Cross blood drive than what is needed to meet the needs of patients. Vacations and summer activities are among the reasons regular donors may not find the time to give. But, patients don't get a vacation from needing blood – the need is constant.
As a national network, the Red Cross has a unique responsibility to help ensure blood is available for patients whenever and wherever it is needed. By donating blood or platelets through the Red Cross, donors may be helping patients in their community or patients across the nation.
Red blood cells have a shelf life of only 42 days and platelets just five days, so they must constantly be replenished.
To learn more and make an appointment to donate blood, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS.

We have come to know Todd McShay as the voice opposite Mel Kiper Jr. on almost every NFL draft issue discussed on ESPN.
Who does ESPN tell us McShay is? None other than "the director of college scouting for Scouts Inc. He has been evaluating prospects for the NFL draft since 1998."
We have heard Kiper's story before (the draft-centered "nerd" that provided draft publications before anyone else and has been featured on ESPN since in 1984), but how much do we know about McShay?
The "man with the tan" was a college quarterback at Richmond and then became a member of "The War Room", which ESPN bought in 2006 and coined "Scouts Inc."; at the time "TWR" was run by former NFL scout Gary Horton.
We now see his face on a year-round basis and he often challenges and critiques Kiper like two friends engaged in a bar stool argument.
While Kiper sits at the desk during draft day, McShay does his things from the ESPN studios in Bristol, Connecticut.
They both have a major voice in NFL draft coverage and they typically drive home opinions that a majority of the fan base loves to argue with because their opinions are made so public.
Both Kiper and McShay released new three-round mock drafts today and we are going to grade out Todd's latest picks as the day goes on.
Has he finally given in and put Cam Newton at No. 1 overall?
And how far is Da'Quan Bowers going to fall down after his workout woes?
Keep it here and you'll find out if Todd McShay made the best decisions.
As always, be sure to bookmark out 2011 NFL Draft Hub for all your draft needs.

Cudahy Carolers find heart of holiday, aina hey?
In the best of many wonderful moments in "A Cudahy Caroler Christmas," Alison Mary Forbes makes her appearance as Trixie, a mousy librarian auditioning for Stasch Zielinski's Cudahy choir.
Trixie can't sing a note - until downing half a bottle of mango-peach schnapps. Suitably fortified, the real Trixie moves into a clothes-shucking burlesque routine that liberates her body and unleashes Forbes' amazing voice. Forbes may be singing a sadistic librarian's fantasy about torturing patrons, but her Trixie is also gloriously - and uproariously - free. »Read Full Article(3)

About the Dinner
The Summit Awards Dinner is ASAE's signature event of the year showcasing the unique and indispensable role associations play in America and around the world in bettering communities, fostering volunteer efforts, and harnessing the collective will and expertise of their members to ensure a better quality of life. As reinforced by the Power of A program, America's associations have the power to impact the economy, the power to put people to work, the power to prepare for the future, and the power to enrich lives. The Summit Awards Dinner is our industry's chance to celebrate our profession and share that positive message with other key audiences.
Proceeds raised for the Summit Awards dinner will directly benefit ASAE's Power of A (PWRA) Fund, which provides the resources ASAE needs to lobby Congress, activate grassroots networks, hold forums with elected officials, perform research and continue to share the Power of A message with legislators, the media and other opinion leaders.

So here was Evan Mathis, free-agent guard, looking for work last month in the middle of the most frenzied free-agent market in NFL history. He'd told his agent he wanted to go somewhere and be a starter. His agent told him the Philadelphia Eagles were interested. Mathis ran through their linemen in his head and was interested but not convinced.
"Would you please have Howie Roseman call me?" Mathis asked his agent.
A short time later, Mathis told me in a phone interview Thursday, the Eagles general manager did call him. And this was the message he delivered about the team's plans for the offensive line:
"He said, 'We're ready to win, we're going to be selfish about it and we're going to play the best five guys'," Mathis said. "That was enough for me. I came in with the intention of proving I was one of the best five."
Mathis knew the Eagles were planning to start first-round pick Danny Watkins at right guard, that injuries had left things unsettled at right tackle and that either he or the starting left guard, Todd Herremans, could move to tackle if need be. The Eagles were a team, Roseman had told him, that wasn't going to worry about people's feelings. Just because someone is the first-round pick doesn't automatically means he plays. It's Super Bowl or bust for the Eagles this season, and that's why the line has undergone so many changes already before a game has even been played.
Contrary to the early-August plans, it now appears as though Mathis will start at left guard and Herremans at right tackle in Sunday's season opener in St. Louis. It also appears as though sixth-round pick Jason Kelce will start at center and first-round pick Watkins will not start at guard, having been demoted this week in favor of newly signed veteran Kyle DeVan. Watkins' demotion is the clearest evidence yet that what Roseman told Mathis was true.
"I think a lot has been expected of Danny because he's the first-round draft pick," Mathis said. "But I see a guy who's built to play football, a very smart guy who's tough and physical, and I think Danny's going to be fine."
But it appears he'll need more time before he can crack this starting line, which is charged with the tasks of learning the aggressive new blocking schemes taught by new line coach Howard Mudd and protecting their slippery and mobile quarterback, Michael Vick.
"Whoever's back there, you're not really thinking about who it is. You just have to keep him clean," Mathis said. "The way he plays, sometimes it might just mean we have to roll out with him if he's doing that. Howard's scheme might work well with a quarterback like Michael Vick."
That's because Mudd picks quick, athletic linemen and teaches them to get out, push forward and block aggressively -- a scheme designed to dramatically increase the room in which the players behind the line have to work.
"Some of his techniques I've seen a lot of other places and seen a lot of other coaches use them, but not as much as Howard," Mathis said. "It's much more aggressive, but it works. The things he does work. And once you've done it enough times, you realize why it works."
It's got to work quickly, but Mathis isn't as worried as some on the outside are. I asked him if he thinks Kelce is going to be continuing his learning process during the regular season, and he said not as much as you'd think since there's been so much more focus on teaching and learning in this training camp than there usually is. Plus, he really likes Kelce.
"Very smart kid, very naturally talented, a lot of quickness," Mathis said when asked for the Kelce scouting report. "I think he came into college as a linebacker, and I think if he dropped 30 pounds, he could be a linebacker again. Plus, he's a smart, witty guy. Centers are usually like that. Centers are usually the only ones I think can compete with me in Words With Friends."
Nice to know they're all coming together. Maybe Sunday will bring about a more successful edition of "Block With Friends" than we saw from the Eagles' offensive line in the preseason.

Its fine for an overnight stayMy son and I were going to the Boston area to check out colleges, so we really only needed a place to sleep for the night. This hotel was fine for what we needed, two beds, clean and close enough to the schools. They had more than a continental breakfast but not a full breakfast either. If I go back to the area to look at more schools I will stay here again.
Travelers tip on local attractionsFenway is only about 9 miles away going the local roads.Rating:5

Travelers tip on diningFinz in Dedham is a great place to have dinner. The waiter was incredible. In Hingham, Mass you have to have the chowder at Stars. They are the best.Rating:3
Just okThis hotel isnt up to the standard I expect from Marriott. The room was goofy. The doorstop was right where I stepped when I walked into the room and walked to the bathroom. I tripped over it many times. The room needs some work.Rating:3
Not ImpressedRoom was small. Outside room noise made my feel uncomfortable. A bit over-priced, but what do I know.Rating:5
Very helpful staffThe staff at this hotel was the best. They did everything possible to make our stay very pleasant. A PC to get onto the Internet is always available which made airline confirmations a breeze.Rating:5
Nice and CleanAppeared to be relatively new place. Everything was clean and tidy. Nice place to stay esp. for the money!Rating:5
Great Hotel will return on my next visit to this areaWhen we arrived at the hotel we were met with a smile. The Continental breakfast supplied was not limited to just cold Cereal, but a selection of muffins ,toast and bagels as well as Hot Waffels with a variety of toppings. Also supplied were an assortment of juices,coffee,tea etc. All in all a very plesent visit to a quality hotel.

The Soul Deacons
The Soul Deacons have been around for some time now. Since Brother E. Clayton received the "Vision," he put the Soul Deacons together in 1999, at the dawn of a new millennium. The vision was to capture the sounds of an era gone by. The trick was to "Deaconize" these songs with a new and contemporary twist, without losing the original R&B feel. This is just what he did and the response has been amazing. The reviews on the first Soul Deacon CD, "Uptown," have all come in, from around the world, with a rousing "Thumbs Up." This 7 piece band consists of Mark Esquibel on drums and vocals, Jimmy Martinez on Bass and vocals, Steve "Blueberry" Hill on guitar and vocals, Steve O'Neill on keyboards and vocals, Trey Keepin on tenor sax, Nick Thompson on Baritone and tenor sax and of course, Brother E. Clayton on lead vocals and guitar. Maybe it's the Santa Fe, NM air or maybe just the love of the music, that sets this band apart from the rest of the musical "crowd," but you'll agree that this is a very exciting and very musical group.Read more

The automotive group Renault-Nissan Alliance has announced that it posted record unit sales in 2012. The two carmakers and their associates sold just over 8.1 million cars during the year, a 1% increase over 2011's level. Much of the improvement was due to robust growth in emerging markets.
Of the two manufacturers, Nissan (NASDAQOTH: NSANY ) sold the bulk of those vehicles. The Japanese carmaker unloaded 4.9 million of its automobiles, a 6% year-over-year increase.
The figure for France-based Renault was 2.6 million. Although the company's sales grew significantly in markets such as Brazil and Russia, overall they were down 6% from 2011's level.
