10 Zoning Principles of CHPC
For over seventy years, CHPC has analyzed, commented, and testified on proposed changes to the text and maps of the New York City Zoning Resolution, according our mission statement: "to conduct analysis on urban planning and housing policy to promote a more prosperous and livable city for all New Yorkers".
The CHPC Zoning Committee, comprising some of the most influential and knowledgeable industry professionals in New York City, is responsible for evaluating proposed changes to the Zoning Resolution for their impact on the long-term planning and housing needs of the City on behalf of our organization.
The CHPC Zoning Principles have been put together to ensure the Zoning Committee's consistent voice at public hearings in the land use review process. These principles are used when assessing and commenting on text amendments to the New York City Zoning Resolution and re-zonings.

Progressive Thinking on the Building Envelope
Earlier this year, after listening to concerns raised by our board members, we began to investigate how outdated rules governing building envelopes within contextual zoning can sometimes result in fewer residential units being built. We examined seventeen sites to see how much the building envelope rules affected the residential construction. Take a look at our full publication.
This morning, Friday September 19th, CHPC joined together with the New York City Department of City Planning (DCP) to discuss the findings of our study the "Building Envelope Conundrum." The six person panel took place at the Center for Architecture.…Read more

The Building Envelope Conundrum
The de Blasio administration's newly announced Housing New York plan has set many ambitious goals for the development of new housing in the city – and has acknowledged that extra floor area for residential construction will be necessary.
CHPC's board members are on the front lines of developing affordable housing. As such, they provide valuable insights into how the city can construct more housing, and improve its design and quality.
Recently, some of our board members had begun to raise an issue they had been experiencing that was constraining residential development. The rules that define the building envelope within contextual …Read more

Jackie Nourse has lived with depression since she was a teenager. Now in her 50s, she nevertheless works successfully at a full-time job.
Dawn D'Cruz, diagnosed with chronic schizophrenia, has several part-time jobs that give her an income, a structured routine and self-esteem.
Both work for not-for-profit organizations that exist to support people with mental illness. And both organizations make significant accommodations for their employees with mental illness.
Ms. Nourse is a communications assistant in the public affairs department of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH).
In private-sector office jobs she had before coming to CAMH, she recalled, "I never spoke about it [depression]. I would start in a job and then just be off sick and quit. Then I got very ill and it was such a big deal to try to get back to work. I tried to commit suicide because there was just no way I could go in and meet people and take on a job."
Ms. D'Cruz is a chef, landscaper and advocate with Houselink, a charitable agency in Toronto that provides supportive housing to people with mental illness.
"Every job has stress," she said, "but they [Houselink] make it less stressful. You can go to work even if you're sick and the boss will give me an easy job. They give me a hug. They accommodate me."
The big question is whether private businesses with an eye on the bottom line in a challenging economic environment also can accommodate employees with mental illness and provide a workplace that, if not delivering hugs, promotes and supports mental health.
Is the for-profit Canadian workplace able and willing to replace lean and mean with lean and psychologically safe?
With one in five Canadian workers experiencing depression, according to a recent Ipsos Reid poll, the question is pressing.
The answer will come some time after Nov. 7. That's when the the Mental Health Commission of Canada is expected to introduce the National Standard of Canada for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace.
The draft of the standard released last January suggested that in the psychologically safe workplace, "self-esteem needs are met" and "workers feel rewarded in terms of praise, recognition and acknowledgment of and credit for their contributions."
Risks to psychological health include a situation "where work is distributed inequitably."
Complying with the standard will be voluntary but there's already been some fretting about it, said Bill Wilkerson, co-founder of the Global Business and Economic Roundtable on Addiction and Mental Health.
"Opposition to the standard emerged from business associations and lawyers worried that this was the thin edge of the wedge toward mandatory enforcement," he says.
Reviewing the first draft of the national standard released last January, the website of law firm Heenan Blaikie suggested that "the breadth of the standard raises concerns about its viability for Canadian employers."
Countered Mr. Wilkerson, "For small business, anything is onerous that seems to require them to spend more money or live with people who aren't up to par in terms of productivity."
But free and low-cost resources are available online and within the community, Mr. Wilkerson insisted.
And he said the standard is expected to include an appendix added specifically to help small-business owners with compliance.
Moreover, he said that, by meeting the standard, "within a foreseeable period, businesses will save money."
The roundtable Mr. Wilkerson founded in 1998 has always made that economic argument.
Now more corporations are buying into it.
"There are some for-profit organizations that are very leading edge" about mental health in the workplace, said Paula Allen, vice-president of health solutions at Morneau Shepell, the largest Canadian-based firm providing human resource consulting and outsourcing services. "But most for-profits still have a bit of a gap in best practices in all areas."
She cited "financial institutions" for showing leadership and specifically mentioned Bell Canada for being "very vocal" about mental health.
"What separates Bell is that they've spoken about it publicly," Ms. Allen said.
In 2009, Mary Deacon was appointed chairwoman of Bell Canada's mental health initiative after working in the not-for-profit sector for 25 years.
"I was brought in to lead the program because of my mental health background," explained Ms. Deacon, who speaks about living with depression and the suicides of her two brothers.
Typically, in the non-profit sector, she said, "There's a much greater emphasis on and interest in social justice. People in that world are motivated by the greater good."
But there are also less idealistic reasons for mental health initiatives in the workplace, suggested Ms. Deacon, citing disability costs and lost productivity.
In most workplaces, she noted, short-term disability accounts for the majority of absences and mental illness accounts for 30 per cent of short-term disability and 70 per cent of the costs.
"We have made progress," said Mr. Wilkerson, almost 15 years after he co-founded the Roundtable on Addiction and Mental Health.
There's been an increasing awareness, he said, "a gradual deepening of the roots of the issue."
He mentioned Bell Canada's Let's Talk program and the Great-West Life Centre for Mental Health in the Workplace and said, "The benefits and insurance industry has awakened to mental health in the workplace as an issue."
He said he is encouraged by a recent Ipsos Reid poll which found that 84 per cent of 6,000 Canadians surveyed now say that supporting co-workers with mental health problems is part of their own jobs.
"It's a wonderful sign that the stigma is fading," he said.
But there are factors that need work, he maintained. "The battle for awareness has been solidly won. The war against stigma is being won. The effort to provide better care and access to care is a work in progress."
However, he said that surveys indicate that "the leadership of the human resources profession is sadly lacking. Employees off work due to mental illness struggle with bureaucratic HR rules, case management practices ill-suited to the nature of their illness, little or no practical information to help them cope, and a chilly lack of compassion and flexibility. We have urged employers to audit their HR practices, perceptions and attitude toward mental illness among their HR people to root out these hurtful behaviours."
Mr. Wilkerson admitted that he sees the challenge of making Canadian workplaces psychologically safe for all workers as something of a Sisyphean task.
"My ultimate angst is that I'll wake up 10 years from now to find that we're starting all over again," he said, "and that my speech from 1998 is still relevant
Or maybe there really is reason for optimism. Maybe, in five or 10 years, all Canadian workplaces – private, public and not-for-profit – will offer the supportive, safe-work environment that Ms. Nourse encountered at CAMH.
"I started in a volunteer capacity," she said. "I started off slowly, with hours and days that suited me. I felt so welcome and the people were so good to me, it got to where I wanted to be here all the time. Volunteering led to a part-time job in the same department and then full-time."
She added, "Everybody I work with knows my history. And knowing I could take a disability leave and that the job is here when I come back is a lifeline. There's the flexibility, too. I go for appointments with the doctor twice a week. If I need to leave a bit early, I make up that time. It's all out in the open."
Her job, she said, is not just her livelihood. "It's a huge part of my life. I live by myself, and for people who live with mental illness, isolation is a huge problem. My co-workers are my friends, outside of work, too."

Aliso Viejo, California – (The Hosting News) – June 14, 2007 – Utility and grid computing solutions firm, 3Tera, Inc., has been selected by BT, in a multi-year deal, to use its AppLogic Operating System, to power the new utility computing services that it will offer.
3Tera's AppLogic grid operating system is designed to eliminate the need for co-location, private racks and managed services by enabling the assembly, deployment and management of infrastructure and applications using only a browser and basic IT skills.
Kevin Nickels, Concept to Market Director for BT remarked, "After reviewing numerous solutions and considering building a solution internally, we determined that 3Tera's AppLogic is the solution best positioned to meet our immediate needs. AppLogic enables BT to deliver market leading on-demand computing services."
Vlad Miloushev, President and CEO of 3Tera added, "We were impressed by BT's market foresight and leadership in the Telco industry. They appreciate the need to stay on top of the utility computing market. By adopting AppLogic, BT will continue to keep its leadership in enabling major new operational capabilities."
Andrew Schroepfer, Founder of Tier1 Research (a research group that tracks the competitive hosting, co-location, Internet services, and software-as-a-service markets for their subscribers) offered, "BT has led the industry by aggressively investing billions of dollars a year to build their next generation network, powering the growth of new services such as VoIP and Software as a Service (SaaS). 3Tera has established themselves as a technology enabler in the utility computing space, and BT's partnership with them should give them the ability to offer cutting edge services that are based around simplification, reusable capabilities and hosting of software-based services running as applications."

The operating system converts hosted commodity servers into scalable grids on which users can visually operate, deploy and scale transactional Web applications without any modification of code. At the heart of AppLogic is 3Tera's disposable infrastructure technology, which makes distributed web applications self-contained and portable – enabling them to run on any grid anywhere in the world. As a result, applications become completely separated from the hardware infrastructure traditionally needed to run them, allowing users to remotely manage their applications through a web browser, and provision resources as needed.
3Tera, Inc. provides grid and utility computing solutions designed to simplify the deployment, operation and scaling of online services. The company's AppLogic grid operating system was developed to allow web hosting providers to offer true utility computing that enables anyone with a browser and basic IT skills to operate dozens of servers, and hundreds of online applications, without owning and operating hardware infrastructure. 3Tera is a privately-held company headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California with R and D facilities in Silicon Valley, Israel and Eastern Europe.

They may have stolen my past but I will
never let them take my future.
When the walls between Man and Fae come crashing down, freeing the immortal Unseelie from their icy prison, Mac is caught in a deadly trap. Trapped and tortured by the Fae Lord Master, Mac has no memory of who or what she is: the only sidhe-seer alive that can track the Sinsar Dubh, a book of black magic that holds the key to controlling both worlds.
Clawing her way back from oblivion is only the first step Mac must take down a perilous path, from the battle filled streets of Dublin to the treacherous politics of an ancient, secret sect, through the tangled lies of men who claim to be her allies into the illusory world of the Fae themselves where nothing is as it seems—and Mac is forced to face a soul-shattering truth.
Who do you trust when you can't even trust yourself?
"Freaking fabulous! ...is so utterly wonderful that you must be reading this series, if you're not already."
~ Literary Escapism
"This book is absolutely riveting... riveting. By far, the most fascinating book I have read this year."
~ Penelope's Romance Reviews
"Mac's evolution from typical 20-something to unrelenting warrior has been shocking, graphic and painful. Moning pulls no punches as she sets Mac on this ghastly path!"
~ RT Book Reviews
"This series should come with a warning on it. Because it's about as addictive as any illegal drug and will take over your life until the next book is finished!"
~Book Chick City
"Brutal, deep and leaving us with heaps and heaps of questions, Dreamfever is an undeniably great urban fantasy."
~Vampire Book Club
Chapter One
Dani: 2:58 p.m., November 1
Hey, it's me—Dani. I'm gonna be taking over for a while. Fecking good thing, too, 'cause Mac's in serious trouble. We all are. Last night everything changed. End-of-the-world stuff. Uh-huh, that bad. Fae and human worlds collided with the biggest bang since creation, and everything is a mess.
Fecking Shades loose in the fecking abbey. Ro through the roof with it, screaming that Mac betrayed us. Ordered us to hunt her. Bring her in dead or alive. Shut her up or shut her down, she said. Keep her away from the enemy, because she's too powerful a weapon to be used against us. She's the only one who can track the Sinsar Dubh. No way we can let her fall into the wrong hands, and Ro says any hands but hers are the wrong ones.
I know stuff about Mac that she'd kill me for, if she knew I knew. Good thing she doesn't know. I never want to fight Mac.
But here I am, hunting her.
I don't believe she spiked the Orb with Shades. Pretty much everyone else does, though. They don't know Mac like I do. I know Mac like we're sisters. No way she betrayed us.
Seven hundred thirteen of us alive at the abbey at five o'clock last night. Five hundred twenty-two sidhe-seers left at last count. Taking Dublin back. Hunting Mac. Kicking every bit of Fae ass we see along the way.
No sign of her yet. But we're headed in the right direction. There's an epicenter of power in the city, reeking stinking nasty Fae as toxic as the fallout plume from a nuclear explosion. We all feel it. Taste it. Practically see the mushroom cloud hanging in the air. We don't even talk to one another. Don't need to. If Mac's still in Dublin, that's where she is, straight ahead. No way any sidhe-seer could turn away from this kinda pull. I hope she's nailing their butts with the spear. We'll fight back to back like we did a couple nights ago.
But I've got this sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. . . .
Bull-fecking-crikey! I don't feel sick. I never feel sick. Sick is for wusses and wannabes.
Mac can take care of herself. She's the strongest of us all.
" 'Cept me," I mutter, with a swagger and a grin.
"What?" Jo says behind me.
I don't bother answering. They already think I'm cocky enough. I have reasons to be cocky. Uh-huh, I'm that good.
Five hundred twenty-two of us closing in. We fight like banshees and can do some serious damage, but we've got only one weapon—the Sword of Light—that can kill a Fae.
"And it's mine." I grin again. I can't help it. Fecking A, it's the supercoolest gig in the world to be a superhero. Superfast, superstrong, with a few extra "supers" in me that Batman would trade all his toys for. What everybody else wishes they could do, I can. Behind me, Jo says "What?" again, but I'm not grinning anymore. I'm back to feeling prowly, pissed. Being fourteen—well, I almost am—blows. One minute I'm on top of the world, next I'm mad at everybody. Jo says I'm hormonal. She says it gets better. If better means I'm gonna turn into a grown-up, thanks but not. Gimme a blaze of glory any day. Who wants to get old and wrinkly?
If the Unseelie hadn't taken the power grids down last night, turning the whole city into a Dark Zone, I'd've come after Mac sooner, but Kat made us hide like cowards 'til dawn. Not enough flashlights, she said.
Duh, I'm superfast, I said.
Great, she said, so you'd have us watch you whiz superfast right through a Shade and die? Smart, Dani. Real smart.
Pissed me off, but she had a point. When I'm moving like that, it is hard to see what's coming at me. With the power grids down, ain't nobody gonna dispute the Shades own the night once it falls.
Who put you in charge? I said, but it was rhetorical and we both knew it, and she walked away. Ro put her in charge. Ro always puts her in charge, even though I'm better, faster, smarter. Kat's obedient, dutiful, cautious. Gag me with a spoon.
Crashed and burned cars everywhere we turn. I thought there'd be more bodies. Shades don't eat dead flesh. S'pose other Unseelie do. The city is spooky quiet.
"Slow down, Dani!" Kat yells at me. "You're speeding up again. You know we can't keep up with you!"
"Sorry," I mutter, and slow down. With what I feel up ahead and this stupid sick feeling in my stomach—
"Not sick." My teeth clench on the lie. Who the feck am I kidding? I feel sick, sick, sick. My palms and pits are slick with dread. I wipe my sword hand against my jeans. My body knows things before my brain can. Always been that way, even when I was a kid. Used to freak Mom out. It's what makes me fight so good. I know what I'm gonna find up ahead is gonna be one of those things I'll wake up in the middle of the night wishing I could scrape out from behind my eyeballs.
Whatever we're headed for, whatever's throwing all that fallout into the sky, is more Fae power than I've ever felt before, all clumped together in one place. The way we work things, the other sidhe-seers close in and pound ass while I do what I've been doing best since Ro took me in when Mom was murdered.
I kill.
* * *
We range out like a net. Five hundred strong. Drape ourselves, sidhe-seer by sidhe-seer, around the epicenter and close in tight. Nothing's getting through us unless it flies. Or sifts.
Aw, crap! Or sifts. Some of the Fae can travel from place to place at the blink of a thought—just a hair faster than me, but I'm working on that. I have a theory I been testing. Haven't worked out the kinks yet. The kinks are killer.
"Stop," I hiss at Kat. "Tell 'em all to stop!"
She cuts a hard look my way but bites a sharp command that rips down the line. We're well trained. We move together and I tell her my worry: that Mac's in there, in serious trouble, and if the big-bads throwing off all that power are sifters—which most of the big-bads are—she'll be gone the second we're spotted.
Which means I'm going in alone. I'm the only one who can sneak-attack fast enough to pull it off.
"No way," Kat says.
"No choice, and you know it."
We look at each other. She gets that look grown-ups get a lot and touches my hair. I jerk. I don't like to be touched. Grown-ups creep me out.
"Dani." She pauses heavily.
I know that tone like I know the back of my hand, and I know where it's going: Lectureville on a runaway train. I roll my eyes. "Save it for somebody who cares. Newsflash: It ain't me. I'll go up"—I jerk my head at a nearby building—"to get the lay of things. Then I'm going in. Only. When I. Come. Back. Out." I spit each word. "Can you guys go in."
We stare at each other. I know what she's thinking. Nah, reading minds isn't one of my specialties. Grown-ups telegraph everything. Somebody kill me before I get one of those Play-Doh faces. Kat's thinking if she makes the call against me and loses Mac, Ro'll have her head. But if she lets me make the call and things go bad, she can blame it on headstrong, uncontrollable Dani. I take the blame a lot. I don't care. I do what needs to be done.
"I'll go up," she says.
"I need the visual snapshot myself, or I could end up grabbing the wrong thing. You want me coming out with some fe—er, effin' fairy in my hands?" They rip me a new one when I cuss. Like I'm a kid. Like I haven't spilled more blood than they've ever seen. Old enough to kill but too young to cuss. They make a pit bull poodle around. What kinda logic is that? Hypocrisy pisses me off worse than most anything.
Her face sets in stubborn lines.
I push. "I know Mac's in there and for some reason she can't get out. She's in major trouble." Was she surrounded? Wounded that badly? Had she lost her spear? I didn't know. Only that she was in way deep shit.
"Rowena said alive or dead," Kat says stiffly. She left "It sounds like she'll be dead soon and our problems will be solved" hanging unspoken.
"We want the Book, remember?" I try reason. Times I think I'm the only one in the whole abbey that's got any.
"We'll find it without her. She betrayed us."
Feck reason. Pisses me off when people jump to conclusions they have no proof for. "You don't know that, so stop saying it," I growl. Somebody's fist is holding Kat's coat collar, got her up on her toes. It's mine. I don't know who's more surprised, her or me. I drop her back on the ground and look away. I've never done anything like that before. But it's Mac in there and I have to get her out, and Kat's wasting my time big-time with total BS.
Her mouth sets with tiny white lines around it, and her eyes take on a look I get a lot. It makes me feel mad and alone.
She's afraid of me.
Mac isn't. One more way we're like sisters.
Without another word, I give my feet the wings they live for and vanish into the building.
* * *
From the rooftop, I stare.
My fists clench. I keep my nails real short; still, they gouge blood from my palms.
Two Fae are dragging Mac down the front steps of a church. She's naked. They drop her like a piece of trash in the middle of the street. A third Fae exits the church and joins them, and they stand, imperial guards around her, heads swiveling, surveying the street.
The raw sex they're throwing off blasts me, but it's not like V'lane, who I'm gonna give my virginity to one day.
I'm as obsessed with sex as anybody, but those . . . things . . . down there . . . those incredibly—fecking A, they hurt to look at; something's wet on my cheeks; are my eyes boiling in their sockets?—beautiful things scare even me, and I don't scare easy. They don't move right. Storms of color rush under their skin. Black torques slither at their necks. There's nothing in their eyes. Nothing. Eyes of pure oblivion. Power. Sex. Death. They reek of it. They're Unseelie. My blood knows. I want to fall on my knees at their feet and worship, and Dani Mega O'Malley don't worship nothing but herself.
I wipe my face. My fingers come away red. My eyes are leaking blood. Freaky. Kinda cool. Vamps got nothing on Fae.
I close my eyes, and when I open them again I don't look directly at the things guarding Mac. Instead, I take a wide-angle image of the scene. Every Fae, fire hydrant, car, pothole, streetlamp, piece of trash. I map objects and empty spaces on my mental grid, lock it down tight, calculate margin of error based on likely movement, slap it over my snapshot.
I squint. A shadow moves in the street, almost too fast to see. The Fae don't seem to know it's there. I watch. They don't respond to it. No heads swivel to follow it. I can't focus on it. Can't make out its shape. It moves like I move . . . mostly. What the feck? Not a Shade. Not a Fae. A blur of shadow. Now it's hanging over Mac. Now it's gone. Bright side—if the Unseelie aren't noticing it, they shouldn't notice me when I whiz in to snatch her. Dimmer side—what if whatever it is can see me? What if we collide? What is it? I don't like unknowns. Unknowns can kill.
I catch the glint of Mac's spear in a red-robed man's hand. He's carrying it at arm's length from his body. Only Seelie or humans can touch the Seelie Hallows. He's one or the other. The Lord Master?
They have Mac. They have the spear. Don't know if I can grab both so won't try. Would chance it if it wasn't Mac. They hurt her bad. She's bloody everywhere. She's my hero. I hate them! Fae took my mother and now they've taken Mac. I refresh my snapshot of the scene right before I let myself go nuts inside, let that ancient sidhe-seer place in my head swallow me whole.
Instantly, I'm cool and perfect and detached from everything. I'm the Shit. It's the most massive high in the world!
I zip from one freeze-frame to the next. No in-betweens.
I'm on the roof of the building.
I'm in the street.
I'm between the guards. Lust—wantneedsexdie—incinerates me, but I'm moving too fast and they can't touch what they can't see and they can't see me and all I have to do is not cave; hate, hate, hate, make armor from it. Got enough hate to Kevlar all Ireland's Garda.
I grab Mac.
Heart in my throat! Shadow-thing blocks my path! What is it?
I'm past it.
Hear Fae shouting behind me.
Then I'm screaming at Kat and the crew to get their asses in there, grab that spear, and kill those bastards.
Mac in my arms, I freeze frames as fast as I can, heading for the abbey.

'Argo' star and director Ben Affleck has revealed his wife Jennifer Garner, daughters Violet, six, and Seraphina, three and nine-month-old son Samuel, hated the facial hair he had to grow for the movie.
Ben Affleck's family hated the beard he grew for 'Argo'.
The 40-year-old actor admitted his wife, Jennifer Garner, daughters Violet, six, and Seraphina, three and nine-month-old son Samuel, were unimpressed with his facial hair for the political thriller but Jennifer is too ''kind'' to make a big deal out of it.
He told Entertainment Weekly: ''My wife is a very polite and kind woman. She and the kids did not like the beard. It had an exposed wire vibe. It was hated in my home.''
Ben - who has been tipped for an Oscar nomination for directing the movie - admitted his family has influenced the type of movies he makes.
He added: ''Being at a place in my life and my career where I know what I'm trying to do, it's different than being 26. When you're younger and have the early success that I had - it sounds like the worst Hallmark cliche - but I didn't have anyone to share it with. ''I don't mean I wanted someone to sit by the fire with. But when you have a family and children, you kind of see yourself reflected in them. I want to make the kinds of movies that my kids are proud of. I have higher standards, in a way, for them.''
The singer was discovered dead on Thursday morning.

Minimalist House. Wednesday , February 01st , 2017 - 08:48:52 AM
Quote from Minimalist House in Sarginesco with Modern Interior :
Long rectangular building shape is chosen as the minimalism of the residence. You find a way in with a tight door seen. Grassy yard appears meeting with areas of white corals. The area of the home's land is bordered with orange liners butchered with a tight alley. A bit dark color is chosen as the exterior coloring of the residence. Well, the second image shows you an area of the alley with white tiles sowed. There is a standing object displaying some words showing something. It's on the edge of the liner of the land of the house. You can see that the alley links to the tight door. See also minimalist house pictures.

30 August 2010, World Fishing Today URL: http://www.worldfishingtoday.com/news/default.asp?nyId=6049
African coastal states have organized network to tackle illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) fishing, confirms a report.
According to the report representatives from African coastal states attend a workshop in the United Kingdom to learn more of the ways to deal with illegal and IUU fishing which damages fish stocks, the marine environment, food security and wider economic growth and development. The Southern Ocean is often targeted by this practice and IUU fishing operations have traditionally exploited weak controls in African coastal states when landing their catches.The issue has been taken seriously by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's Polar Regions Unit and they successfully convened a workshop in Cape Town between 3-6 August, in collaboration with Australia, South Africa, the New Partnership for Africa's Development's Partnership for African Fisheries, and the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). Representatives from 12 African coastal states attended the workshop which was heavily oversubscribed. The aim of the gathering was to create a network of stakeholders who could work together to identify the challenges involved for African states when tackling IUU fishing, and implement solutions to these problems. Delegates were also asked to identify actions for implementation on return – these included strengthening port controls, signing up to the Food and Agriculture Organisation Agreement on Port State Measures, better communication across relevant government departments and enhanced regional co-operation. It is hoped that interventions such as this one can help to deliver lasting impact in the fight against IUU fishing.

|April 20, 1889, Braunau am Inn, Austria-Hungary
|August 9, 1964, Hamburg, Germany
Adolf Hitler was a famous German artist. Unlike in TTL, the Nazi Party never comes to exist in this timeline, Hitler isn't seen as the face of evil, instead he is a mildly well-known artist.
Early life
Hitler was born in Austria-Hungary, close in proximity to the border with the German Empire. When he was three, his family moved to the town of Passau, where he acquired his Bavarian dialect. In 1894, his family moved to Leonding in Austria. When Hitler was eight, he took singing lessons and even considered becoming a priest. His brother, Edmund, died in 1900, deeply affecting him.

The six best bars for Game Of Thrones and Mad Men viewing parties
Spring's biggest TV series premiere this month—if you're sans cable (or an HBO Go password), watch GoT or Mad Men at these bars
Fri Apr 4 2014
Photograph: Helen Sloan
Your Sundays are about to get a whole lot better: This weekend, Game of Thrones returns to HBO for its fourth season (Sundays at 9pm); the following week, Mad Men's final season, which is being split into two parts, will start up on AMC (Sundays at 10pm). But for those of us without cable—or a friend whose HBO Go password we can, uh, borrow—the return of these critically-acclaimed shows can cause TV-watching-anxiety, as we seek out a bar that doesn't suck to catch up with Danerys Targaryen or Don Draper. But fear not: We found five spots that are holding viewing parties, as well as one that'll show both series all season long. So rest easy—and don't forget to get up to speed before the seasons start. (Mad Men is new on Netflix, you know.)
If you've planned your entire Sunday around TV: Halyards
- Price band: 2/4
Curse ye, cruel cable gods, for putting two shows that require a cable subscription back-to-back on Sunday nights. If you're equally spellbound by Don Draper and Jamie Lannister, finding a bar that's showing both series is a total necessity. Happily, this Gowanus watering hole fits the bill: It'll show both series back-to-back, with Game of Thrones trivia kicking things off at 8pm. Just be sure to arrive early enough to snag a seat: the bar gets packed quickly, and you'll want a seat in the front near the projection screen.
- 406 Third Ave, (at 6th St), 11215
If you want to dust off your Khaleesi costume from Halloween: Professor Thom's
- Price band: 1/4
- Critics choice
If you're still traumatized by the Red Wedding, take comfort in the fact that this East Village staple will give out free Jell-O shots each time a Game of Thrones character is killed off. (Hey, getting drunk numbs the pain, right?) Screenings of the HBO series begin at 9pm every Sunday, but show up early to take advantage of happy-hour prices; and even better, if you don a blonde wig and perch stuffed dragons on your shoulders a lá Danerys Targeryn, your first drink of the night is free.
- 219 Second Ave, (between 13th and 14th Sts)
If you want to surround yourself with GoT superfans: Huckleberry Bar
- Price band: 2/4
Sometimes, you don't really want costume contests or Jell-O shots; you just want to watch Tyrion Lannister be his badass self with minimal distractions. For that, head to this Williamsburg cocktail bar, which will be showing Game of Thrones all season long beginning at 9pm. But they're not completely devoid of gimmicks: plans are in the works for themed drinks and other fun surprises.
- 588 Grand St, (at Lorimer St)
If you want to drink where Don Draper drank: Madison Club Lounge
- Price band: 2/4
Avid Mad Men fans will recognize the Roosevelt as Don Draper's temporary pied-à-terre in season two of the series, so ape the lead character and have a classic Manhattan ($14) at the hotel's season-seven premiere party. And yes, there's a costume contest: winners will be crowned as either a "Dreamy Don Draper" or a "Magic-Making Megan." Apr 13 at 7pm; free.
- 45 E 45th St, (between Madison and Vanderbilt Aves), 10017
If you need a Mad Men refresher: City Winery
- Price band: 2/4
Need a reminder of what happened in Mad Men's last season? (Although do you really need to know any more than "Not great, Bob!"?) Catch up on the season six finale at 9pm before the new episode drops. Throw on your sharpest suit or full-skirted frock—the best-dressed guest leaves with a bottle of the Soho winery's signature vino. Apr 13 at 8pm; free, R.S.V.P. required.
- 155 Varick St, (at Vandam St)
If you want to drink in style: Clover Club
- Price band: 2/4
- Critics choice
The Cobble Hill cocktail bôite puts its own spin on the standards: try the Don Draper, a take on an Old Fashioned, or the Gin Blossom, an updated martini ($12). Don a fringed jacket (a lá Stan Rizzo) or a mod, Megan Draper-style dress for a shot at the best-dressed prize: a $50 gift certificate. Apr 13 at 8pm; free, R.S.V.P. required.
- 210 Smith St, (between Baltic and Butler Sts), 11201

O evaluare a abuzului de pozitie dominanta în politica europeana în domeniul concurentei: relevanta cazului Microsoft
The recent punishment of the biggest global microprocessor producer, Intel Corporation, for the alleged break of the European legislation in the competition field is a result easy to have been anticipated starting with 2004, when European Commission fined the biggest global producer of operation systems, Microsoft Corporation. Practically, from that moment on, a true Sword of Damocles hanged above the head of the giant of Santa Clara taking into account the numerous common elements of the – not to say the same – business strategies of the two companies. Such an identity as well as the reciprocal dependence has been the reasons why the analysts have permanently spoke since the late 80s of Wintel, the strategic alliance that transformed the PC architecture from a proprietary platform of IBM in a "co-proprietary" platform of Microsoft – Intel. And, in order for the semblance to be complete, as Microsoft was the first company in the history of the European – and global – competition law that didn't immediately adjust its competitive behavior after the legal verdict, we can easily anticipate that the second company to get this title will be Intel. And the two cases can prove not only a Mens Rea of the executives of the companies but also a wrong approach of the European, as well as international, authorities in what regards positions of monopoly. It may be the moment that the competition policy be reformulated in a radical way in order to let the performance oriented companies, even if they are dominant, to explore business models and commercial practices that consumers can benefit from.

A new report by Morgan Stanley says, "Pandora has joined Netflix as one of the strongest content consumption platforms on the consumer Internet today." Are they right?
The next Netflix. That's what Morgan Stanley is calling Pandora.
Saying, "Pandora has joined Netflix as one of the strongest content consumption platforms on the consumer Internet today," Morgan Stanley analysts Scott Devitt and John Egbert cite a comScore statistic showing Pandora third behind only Google and Facebook in usage with 4.3 billion hours in the last quarter. Devitt and Egbert believe shares will trade at $24 next year, 23.5% above its current price.
The Morgan Stanley analysts see a large jump in revenue for the company to $652 million in 2014, nearly 53% more than what's expected for 2013. They also anticipate revenues of $1.3 billion two years after that.
Pandora's stock has returned over 110% in the past six months but it's nearly flat over the past two years. Meanwhile, its recent successes have stirred giants Google and Apple into responding with their own streaming music services. And it's also up against Sirius XM Radio. Still, Pandora is the dominant player in the field with a 72% market share of Internet radio.
Should you tune into Pandora? We ask Talking Numbers contributors Enis Taner, Global Macro Editor at RiskReversal.com, and Richard Ross, Global Technical Strategist at Auerbach Grayson, to decide if you should press play on Pandora or if the only hits will be on your portfolio.
To see Taner and Ross analyze Pandora, watch the video above.

Industry Research : B2B Companies Struggle to Deliver B2C E-commerce Experience
When it comes to selling online, B2B organisations have to adapt to changing customer expectations, driven by trends such as smartphone usage, social media and the consumerisation of IT, according to the 2013 E-commerce Report from Intershop. Across the board, respondents in a survey of 400 B2B companies agreed that the world of B2B commerce is undergoing a radical transformation, and B2C trends are reflected in the B2B environment.
Yet, almost all organisations (96%) are facing challenges. Half find it difficult to provide intuitive and user-friendly interfaces for multiple touch points such as B2B online stores, mobile apps etc. A similar number (48%) say it is difficult to manage complex organisational structures such as different user roles, multiple business models, multiple commerce touch points and multiple data domains.
One big challenge is how this change is driven by multiple factors, from customer demand and expectations (81%) to developing technologies (74%) to the fact that business buyers engage through various offline and online touch points with their peers and use multiple information sources to make decisions (73%).
Yet, almost half (49%) agreed that bringing business buyers from offline to online could result in a higher overall bottom line. 44% expected higher average basket values, and 43% said bringing buyers online could result in more return customers and higher brand loyalty.
Jochen Moll, Member and Spokesman of the Board of Management at Intershop explains, "Where there is complexity, there is also opportunity. Organisations that can develop their B2B commerce channels now and offer a consumer-like approach will be well placed to capture market share. They will need to understand how to manage the complexities around their new channels, but the effort will pay off."
Of the 400 B2B organisations surveyed in Europe and the USA, 92% already sell online, and the remaining 8% have plans to. Almost one quarter of these organisations (23%) are planning to increase the percentage they sell online by a further 40% or more.
When it comes to the features their customers expect, intuitive search and navigation are understood to be important by more than three quarters (77%) of B2B organisations, followed by online order approval (75%), self-service account management (74%), category and product pages (73%) and online store analytics / monitoring in real time (72%).
Organisations also realise how important search engine optimisation and search engine marketing are (70%). Two thirds (63%) are trying to encourage ranking or scoring of their organisations' products on social media sites.
Conquering Mobile
Intershop's 2012 E-commerce Report revealed that conquering mobile commerce was the top business challenge facing B2C retailers. In the near future, mobile channels will gain in importance in B2B too. When asked what new touch points organisations plan to use in the next 12 months, online marketplaces (25%), mobile apps (24%) and mobile stores (22%) were the most popular choices.
Of those organisations that say mobile commerce will be important in the next 12 months, a total of 65% are planning to create a mobile-optimised store version that allows business buyers to see products, to purchase, to access their account profile and to track orders.
56% plan to create a mobile app that allows business buyers to see products, to negotiate the price, to click and buy and to track orders. The findings from the survey underline that the transformation of B2B commerce is hitting a tipping point in 2013. The pressure in B2B is to cope with a large number of challenges and fast changing expectations, both from inside and outside their business: Integrating processes and systems, providing consistent cross-channel experiences and embracing mobile and social media, to name but a few.
"B2C has become the test ground for B2B companies to understand how e-commerce technologies can support their sales strategies," adds Moll. "After all, every B2B customer is also a B2C customer so if you want to understand the future of B2B, that is where to look."
Moll concludes, "Interestingly, there is a noticeable disparity between countries in terms of how sophisticated their B2B e-commerce strategy is. E-commerce really is a global market place and B2B organisations need to raise their game to meet the highest benchmark."

The 44-year-old has urged his men to remain focused as they prepare for Sunday's home game against Udinese in Serie A.
The reigning champion leapfrogged the Giallorossi in the Serie A table last week following a 2-0 win over Livorno and Roma's draw versus Cagliari.
However, Conte has made it clear that Juve must remain focused ahead of this weekend's clash with Udinese.
"Juventus and Roma have both been in impressive form this season. That's why we must remain focused and cannot afford to slip up," Conte said at a press conference. "We know it will be difficult to maintain top spot. Whoever faces us always play the game of their lives.
"We know how Udinese play. [Francesco] Guidolin has worked miracles over the past few years, getting them into the Champions League and Europa League. Udinese have excellent, quick counterattacking players and we'll need to be on our guard. I don't think it will be an easy game."
Juventus currently holds a one-point lead over second-placed Roma, with Udinese sitting joint ninth in the table.

WASHINGTON Using fake caller IDs to defraud or cause harm to people would be illegal under a bill the House passed by voice vote Tuesday.
The measure is aimed at the practice of "spoofing," where scammers falsify the name and phone number appearing on caller ID. A scammer, for example, might trick a person into thinking he is getting a call from a bank with the intention of obtaining personal information such as Social Security or credit card numbers.
"This is another example of technology being misused by the unscrupulous to scam the unsuspecting," said Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y., sponsor of the measure.
He said caller ID tampering can also be used by stalkers, and noted that some congressional offices have been flooded with complaints from constituents after a "spoofer" sent out nasty messages identified by caller ID as coming from member of Congress.
The bill was crafted to protect people with legitimate reasons to alter the caller ID, such as a victim of domestic violence not wanting to disclose her phone number.
The bill, which now goes to the Senate, gives the Federal Communications Commission authority to develop regulations to enforce the new law. It keeps intact penalties already in the 1934 Communications Act that sets penalties for fraud at up to $10,000 or a year in prison.
The House last March passed similar legislation that made spoofing a felony subject to up to five years in prison.
The bill is H.R. 251

THIS IS A FILE PHOTO.What does that mean?
Water Resistance - Although we may pressure test a watch prior to being shipped, we do not guarantee any watch to be waterproof and do not cover any water issues under any type of warranty. The reason is because there are too many life factors that can contribute to a watch not being water resistant anymore. Statistically, this applies to even the most careful of watch wearers ...show moreshow less
Box and Papers - All box and papers do is guarantee the box and papers are authentic. The bad guys know that people put trust into original papers so by putting genuine papers with a fake watch allows them to pull off a scam...and when the buyer finds out down the road the watch was fake, the scammer is long gone. The only way to check authenticity is by having the watch checked. As with most preowned watches, the original box and/or papers are not available because they were not retained by the original owner. ...show moreshow less
Warranty – This warranty applies to the movement of the watch only. Watch movements are warrantied to perform as described in the BeckerTime item description during the warranty period. This warranty does not include the battery, strap, links, clasp, case, crown, bezel, dial, hands, screws, crystal and/or diamonds. Damage to a watch due to accident, neglect or mistreatment is not covered by this warranty. Mistreatment includes modification of the watch through the addition or substitution of parts or accessories not provided by Beckertime and will void this warranty. Also not included is the loss or theft of the watch or any damage done by loss or theft. Damage caused by fire, pressure or natural disaster is not covered. This warranty does not cover any water damage—including crystal fogginess, movement damage, dial or bezel damage, seals, gaskets, liquid penetration and any issues pertaining to water. This warranty replaces the original manufacturers warranty. ...show moreshow less
Processing Time - All items are shipped from our facility FOUR (4) BUSINESS DAYS from the date payment is received. Please be patient as this processing time is necessary to prepare each shipment with the very best care. ...show moreshow less

Build on does a fantastic job of blending local and global philanthropy! Local after school programs help inner city kids find meaningful volunteer work contributing to their community AND global outreach to build schools in developing countries - often with the same kids! Education, community, family and giving back are universal values that buildOn exemplifies!
I have done several service projects locally with students from East Palo Alto schools, including visits to a veterans' home and hosting a holiday party for seniors. The best part for me is working side by side with the teens and talking with them about what motivates them to give up a Saturday for service work. They all talk about the community and connectedness they feel when they help someone else. BuildOn's success is rooted in the way it empowers teens to change themselves and their world through service.
I also raised money for a school in Senegal this year and traveled there with my 16 year old daughter to live in the isolated village and break ground on the school. What an experience! We will never be the same. We gave a building, and saw how education does change lives. But I would argue that we received more than we gave - this was an opportunity to connect with a culture and people and begin to understand their dreams and needs. For more information, read "Walk in Their Shoes" by Jim Ziolkowski, and be inspired by the story of how buildOn is changing lives!
I love working with the buildOn group to fundraise in support of building schools ineternationally and I love participating in service events alongside the Boston Public School students. This organization is well developed for success on both efforts.
When I came across the efforts of buildOn, I was deeply inspired. Through buildOn, I have learned that we can make a difference, and we can break the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and low expectations around the world through service and education. As president and founder of a high school buildOn chapter for the past three years, I have been thrilled to see how far this organization has come since its inception. Over the past few school years, we raised over $35,000 and sent a team of students to rural villages in Nicaragua and Malawi for two weeks to build schools. Both journeys were truly life-changing experiences and ones that each of us will cherish for the rest of our lives. Through buildOn, we have also been able to have a tangible impact in our local community, which is a very beautiful thing! Go buildOn!!!
Previous Stories
My experiences as a High School Chapter President and Volunteer for buildOn have been among the most powerful and formative of my life. At is core, buildOn is a nonprofit organization with the goal of empowering youth in America to make a positive difference in their communities while helping citizens of developing countries increase their self-reliance through education. Spread out among more than 100 high schools, buildOn students have contributed over one million hours of service in their communities and touched the lives of more than 1,428,615 people in the U.S. itself. Furthermore, since 1991, youth chapters have helped rural communities in various developing countries build more than 500 schools, providing more than 60,000 children and adults with a better access to daily education. When I came across the efforts of buildOn, I was deeply moved and inspired. So far, my most memorable experience with the organization came in July 2012, when my chapter raised $30,000 and traveled to Bramadero, Nicaragua for two weeks to help build a school. It was a life-changing experience and one that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Through the buildOn family, I have learned that international service is possible. If we work together, we can grow as a global family and break the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and low expectations around the world. Ultimately, my experiences with buildOn have inspired me to continue serving until the day that all children around the world have access to a primary school education.
Review from CharityNavigator
The message of buildOn and the impact this program has both within our own country and in other countries is invaluable. To actually work at breaking the cycle of poverty and highlight the importance of education on multi levels is an impressive accomplishment. To have the actual statistics to back the efforts .... One of a kind.
For the past 2 years, I have helped raise funds for BuildOn to build schools in Nepal and Nicaragua. Upon completion of raising these funds (over $150k to date), our group has trekked to these countries to be part of the ground breaking. As a yoga teacher, I try to teach my students the importance of community and service, but there is only so much you can "teach" about -- the rest has to come from hands-on experience. These treks, as well as the opportunity to work with BuildOn in various capacities here in Philadelphia, have been life-changing no just for myself and the adult students who travel with us, but also to our communities here at home that have helped us raise the necessary funds. When people collaborate together towards a common goal, the sense of community becomes stronger. Through our projects here at home, we have helped connect a local community to a global community, as we have worked together to create the opportunity for education for all. The support team at BuildOn is stellar. The international trek team (both BuildOn and in-country staff) are also superb.
Upon arrival home from our international treks, many of our students have either continued to raise funds for BuildOn because of their belief in the movement or have continued to volunteer in some capacity here in Philadelphia.
I am beyond impressed with this organization and will continue to work with them as long as I can.
buildOn is not simply a charity, it is a movement. Not only are they breaking the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and low-expectations through service and education, but buildOn is also creating a stronger community domestically and internationally. 94% of their students in programs in the United States are graduating high school AND going off to college, when before buildOn they were merely a statistic destined for failure. I owe my life to buildOn for everything that have done to positively impact my life. This organization has provided me with the tools to successfully live the life that will follow my dreams and aspirations. I believe in buildOn and love every aspect about this organization down to its Staff members. Everyone treats you like family, and helps you find a great sense of purpose in life. It is the ignition to many great minds and is leading the way to bring equal opportunity to all.
It's been four years since I first entered the door to the buildOn club at my high school and I've gain priceless experience to what life have to offer. What we; as humans can do. One thing that will forever be in my soul is that accept flaws, mistakes, accidents, accept negativity with a smile, because that means you are smiling with life. The change starts here and I am part of that change.
I was introduced to buildOn through a very good friend of mine during my freshman year, and I cannot thank her enough for it. Through buildOn, I was able to grow as a person, understand the difficulties and struggles others go through in 3rd world countries, and to simply be more aware of my surroundings. It has taught me how to work with others, how to build leadership skills, and how to get involved. I cannot thank them enough for the experiences I received and the wonderful people I met. I love love love buildOn!

The mess in Iraq-related
Expand Messages
- Greetings.
Thinking about the current situation in Iraq, I was trying to
recall. When the citizens of Iraq had the famous elections and
approved a new constitution, wasn't it be a "unity" government
with Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, all involved? Why didn't that work?
Could that kind of concept ever work in Iraq?
Richard Kelly
- The idea of a "unity" government in Iraq is a concept that has more
U.S. political spin to it than Middle East reality. In nations such
as Iraq, that were never true nation-states, there is a whole
different dynamic at work that many refuse to recognize.
When a citizen of Iraq wakes up they do not think first of their
country. From their viewpoint they are a member of an ethnic group,
tribe, or religion, and the idea of allegiance to a nation is way
down the list. The fact that the west created Iraq and then thought
all parties would live happily together has never worked. The sad
fact is that Saddam used his dictatorial powers and brutal nature to
make the country's festering hatred stay muted for the most past.
Not pretty, but true. Tito in a different way did the same for
Yugoslavia. Chaos resulted from their exits from the world stage.
The election in Iraq was used for political consumption in America to
make some consider the Bush Administration's flawed policy sound like
it had merit.. In reality the citizens of Iraq knew as a result of
the election the new powers had stacked the police and security
apparatus with Shia followers who have a vendetta against the Suni
minority. The Kurds knew they had to plow ahead with hopes of
autonomy in the north. There was never any attempt to divide oil
revenues. The militias that see their power based on who they are
vs. the nation they live in, are strongly connected to various
players in the government. Again the militias mindset is pointed out
in paragraph two, above.
We should remember that President Bush (41) stopped the first Iraq
war and did not go into Baghdad, and those who knew the history of
the region applauded. Those who felt that history served no purpose
and that we could foist our version of democracy on Iraq in the same
fashion that we created the nation in the first place have now a hell
of mess on their hands ..and over 3000 dead American soldiers ..and
many tens of thousand of Iraq citizens dead as a result.
This war has created a mess in the Middle East where our credibility
has shrunk, ruined our friendships with western nations, sapped our
resources since the war costs $2 BILLION dollars per week, strained
out military so that if there was a real need for our troops to fight
they would be hampered with shortages, created deep political
divisions in America, and hindered future Presidents from saying we
need to send troops somewhere because the American public knows that
we were misled with that argument about Iraq.
Well ..I went a little longer and further than I had planned but I
will send this anyway.
Take care.

[This story could be triggering: Self-harm, Anxiety, Suicidal Ideation]
He was his anchor of sorts, he held him down when he felt like he was drifting away. But love can't fix you, it can only help you along the way.
Frank Iero, unbelievably adorable but also unbelievably sad. When he meets the more outgoing artsy boy with beautiful jet black hair in a forest at 2am, neither of them expect it to shape the rest of their lives.
Frank is a troubled teen to say the least, there is a constant battle going on his mind. These days he can barely think clearly anymore and Gerard wants to help save him. But how can he attempt to save someone who is already so far gone?
newbubble Feb 11, 2016
I really like the begining of this chapter. The flow was good and writing was clear. I also like the way you described everything. It was so easy to imagine it infront of us...great job here!!!

Your descriptions are clear and vivid. I like how you describe the forest. And yeah its cute that he likes him ryt away lol

It's a good start! The pov in third person is written well. I love the part where he lights the cigar - irony of 'fresh air'.
Dayanasaur Feb 25, 2016
My favorite part of this story was the cigar part, when they both lit it "inhaling, exhaling, slowly killing them". The forest seems like a calming place.
lookalivedunshine Nov 01, 2016
If Gerard is 17 won't that make Frank 13? Why the frick is he smoking.
freefallxx Mar 18, 2016
Wow I thought frank woke up in the middle of forest was a dream. I like how he described the forest which sounded really calm and heartwarming

Obama leaves Enda hanging after handshake fail
TAOISEACH Enda Kenny was left hanging by US President Barack Obama during his trip to the White House on St Patrick's Day.
The Mayo-man went to shake the president's hand but the attempt went unnoticed by Obama.
Kenny quickly realised he was going to be left hanging and pulled his hand back before awkwardly stretching out his fingers.
The Taoiseach can take some comfort from the knowledge it happens to everyone at some point.
However, the world's media aren't usually there to capture the cringe-worthy moment.
