- your bean should be part of a package Although I did't see anything like this in the spec it's at least a good practice, and the JSP engines I known (tomcat and gnujsp) seem to expect/enforce this. (If someone can point me to the part of the spec where this is specified, he's wellcome) - place your bean according to the package - you should not use import for the usebean tag. (see below) - use the complete class name in Class attribute of usebean According to the spec class must be the fully qualified name. (JSP 1.1 final, 2.13.1) That import and use bean without a full qualified class name works under tomcat is an error in my opinion > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Ramaekers [mailto:email@example.com] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 17.

Secret Seven was having only his fourth start on the Flat when scoring over 1m4f at Tramore but a 10lb rise looks harsh. MONEY SPIDER looks to have a real chance of completing a hat-trick after her victory over this trip at Limerick, for which she's only gone up 4lb, so she's given the nod. Mutual Regard won five times for Sir Mark Prescott but looks on a high enough mark for his reappearance while Edge Of Sanity faded in the closing stages over 1m6f at Leopardstown and this is further. Drifting Mist is 17lb higher than her last victory but Ballyadam Brook, though better known as a hurdler these days, created a surprise when scoring at Listowel and has to come into the reckoning.

Hello Chums,
Once a month there's a Sunday Market in Pucks Hassle. 'You can pick up some real bargains,' Arry told Ed, enthusiastically, when Ed asked about the event which he'd seen advertised in the parish magazine.
'Do they sell plants?' enquired Ed, 'I want a few shrubs and things for the garden.'
'Do they sell PLANTS!!' responded Arry, with feeling.
'Well, do they?' insisted Ed.
'You,' said Arry, 'lowering his voice and leaning across Ed's desk, 'are in luck! My cousin Bert's got a stall loaded wiv stuff for the garden. People go wild about 'is plants.'
'Right!' said Ed. 'Junior! You can come and give me a hand!'
We arrived at the market nice and early on Sunday and made our way to the stall Arry had described.
'Just leave the bargaining to me!' instructed Ed, and in next to no time we were loaded down with plants of all shapes and sizes.
'Cousin Bert's done us proud!' he chortled, as we staggered back to the car. 'He sold me an Urtica Dioica for £1, a couple of Trifolium Pratenses for a fiver and half-a-dozen Taraxacum Officinales for 50p each!'
'Are you sure you know what they all are?' I asked doubtfully.
'Of course I am!' retorted Ed, 'but you can look them up when we get home - just to check on planting and pruning and whatnot!'
'No wonder people go wild over Bert's plants,' I observed later, as I turned the pages of Ed's 1904 copy of Moses Mossmould's Guide to Successful Gardening. 'He's sold you a stinging nettle, two bunches of clover and six dandelions!'
See you soon
Luv Junior

What is the status of former U.S. Rep. William J. Jefferson, D-New Orleans? Has he entered prison? Or is he still out, due to his first appeal?
Jefferson was convicted in August 2009 in federal court in Alexandria, Va., on multiple counts of conspiracy to solicit bribes by a public official, money laundering and violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
In November 2009, Jefferson was sentenced to 13 years in prison. But he was allowed to remain free on bail, pending a decision in his appeal.
The former congressman is electronically monitored. Court records show he is permitted to travel to Washington, D.C., to work with attorneys on his appellate case.
U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III also permitted Jefferson to travel to Butner, N.C., in early May to visit a brother, Mose Jefferson, who was serving a 10-year prison sentence at a federal medical center for inmates.
Mose Jefferson, who was convicted for obstruction of justice and bribing an agent of a federally funded organization, died weeks later of cancer.
William Jefferson was granted court permission to travel to Lake Providence in late May to attend the funeral for his brother.
Records of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Va., show oral arguments in William Jefferson's appellate case are tentatively scheduled for the period of Dec. 6 through Dec. 9.
Sex offenders
A recent article in The Advocate reported that LSU's new quarterback, Zach Mettenberger, pleaded guilty to sexual battery in Georgia. Is he registered as a sex offender? If not, why not?
Response from Louisiana State Police spokesman Lt. Doug Cain:
"No, the elements of the Georgia statute to which Mettenberger pled are not elements of the comparable Louisiana statute. Therefore, Mettenberger is not required to register in Louisiana as a sex offender."
Send questions to Ask The Advocate, P.O. Box 588, Baton Rouge, LA 70821-0588; or fax to Ask The Advocate, (225) 388-0297; or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

I'm pretty sure after the season premiere the producers said on Kimmel that Shannon was coming back. Isn't it getting a little late for that?
And what about Walt? I thought he was going to have a major role in this season?
Rose and Bernard are interesting as well because shouldn't they have time-traveled with the other Losties if that was the case at the end of Season 5?
And are we going to see Eloise again? Or will they just make references to her in a flash-sideways/flash-back?

The Factory of Dreams
Go behind the scenes of Televisa Studios' steamy world of Mexican soaps
Unless you grew up watching telenovelas (AKA Mexican soaps), you might not be familiar with Corazones Al Limite (Hearts' Limit) or Amarte es mi Pecado (Loving You is My Sin), but unlike their American counterparts these daytime dramas are a huge part of not only Mexican culture, but pop culture all over world. Telenovelas are, in fact, one of Mexico's largest exports and have an ardent viewership throughout Latin America as well as in Africa, Asia, Europe and the USA. They've birthed some big names, including Selma Hayek, Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal. One star, René Casados, was the image consultant for Carlos Salinas de Gortari, Mexico's last president, and Rogelio Guerra, the male lead in Los Ricos También Lloran (The Rich Also Cry), was so popular in Russia that the show's finale was watched by 70% of the population. Guerra even stood in for Boris Yeltsin to deliver the Russian New Year's presidential address.
All these telenovelas are shot at the famous Televisa Studios, located in the San Ángel neighborhood of Mexico City. Because many of the actors who get their start in Mexican soap operas actually go on to film or become famous for their soap work, the studio has been dubbed "The Factory of Dreams," which is also the title of photographer Stefan Ruíz's upcoming book from the Aperture Foundation. Ruíz spent eight years behind the scenes at Televisa, shooting actors on and off set in a series of surreal portraits. Costumed in maid uniforms, sultry dresses, sharp suits or fully topless, it's difficult to tell if these actors ever venture out of character. Ruíz also shot the students training for their impending celebrity status at the Televisa "soap school", where they enact the genre's most tried and true story lines of betrayal, deception and romance in what the book calls a "world of beautiful women, handsome men, and rags-to-riches Cinderella stories that reveal the underlying fantasies of social aspiration, as well as entrenched racial hierarchies."
"The Factory of Dreams" releases 30 June 2012 and will be available at the Aperture Foundation shop for $50.

Not a very good shot but this is the first page of my new project - my wedding album. I started with this page first because I thought it would be the easiest out of the many I still want to do. The corner photos flip up to reveal some poems I found online about the bond between daddy's & daughters, & one written by a father giving his daughter away on her wedding day which I found beautiful & fitting. The only thing I'm unhappy about is that I had to have the childhood photo I chose on an angle as it was a last minute decision to fill the gap next to the bottom corner photo but I think it works well.

Contracts Crisis3:06
The Newman Government is refusing to budge over a doctors pay dispute, despite cracks within its ranks. Courtesy: Ten
QUEENSLAND Health will have to replace every emergency physician from at least four public hospitals if the contracts dispute is not resolved.
Emergency specialists met in Brisbane on Tuesday night to discuss the impasse.
Hospitals to plan for exodus over contracts dispute
Springborgs meets with doctors over contract dispute
Speaking on behalf of the doctors, Christa Bell and David Spain said every public ED specialist at Townsville, Cairns, Robina and the Gold Coast University Hospital had pledged to leave rather than sign.
"The message from the Government is that they're actually wanting us to resign by not giving us a fair contract,'' Dr Spain said.
Dr Bell said the Government was using public hospital doctors and patients to push an ideological industrial agenda. "I want to just go back to work, see patients, do my job and for this to be over,'' she said.
Late Tuesday, almost 150 emergency specialists unanimously called on the Newman Government to enter into ``meaningful negotiations'' with doctor representatives to change relevant legislation and contract terms to urgently resolve the dispute.
The Brisbane meeting also passed a resolution to inform Premier Campbell Newman and Health Minister Lawrence Springborg that the individual contracts were unacceptable in their current form.

JapanaSix: Top moments from Ajin Season 2
Nov 17
// Karishma Roy
Tosaki and Kei's Alliance So remember how Tosaki and Kei were enemies playing cat and mouse? Not the case anymore. They form an unlikely but a mutually beneficial alliance stemming from their shared goal to defeat Satou. Tosaki is under threat from his higher ups and will be forced to quit the Ajin Research Department if he doesn't manage to save the minister whose name is on the kill list. Tosaki desperately needs the job to pay for his currently comatose fiancée's treatment which confirms that he does indeed have a heart underneath that icy exterior! Meanwhile, Kei and Kou require a powerful ally – an army of their own- to defeat Satou's team. And Kei, guided by his genius intellect, threatens to kill Tosaki's fiancée in order to buy time to make the deal that gives him the support and resources he needs. This was an intense and action packed scene. The fear and tension when Kei orders his IBM to kill the fiancée is palpable as no one in the room was aware that his ghost does the opposite of what it is ordered. As twisted as Kei is, there is something to admire about his cold, logical way of thinking. As for Kou, he is the dumbest guy out there but he provides comic relief and reminds Kei about basic human morals so I'm okay with him being a sidekick. Satou blowing up the plane Satou appears to be having a lot of fun progressing through his kill list. The second guy he takes out is Mr. Sakurai who despite Tosaki's warnings decides to fly out on a business trip believing that Satou would hardly follow him all the way to Okinawa. Of course, Hatter shows up like Surprise, bitch! There's a cool casualness to the way Satou finishes his game, saunters to the first class cabin, kills his target and wishes those who are alive "Bon Voyage" before blowing the plane up. How frickin' cool is that? I mean, it's totally evil but also the dude's a bawse! Satou couldn't give a damn about practicality so long as he can make his stunts awesome. His only regret would probably be that his game console didn't make it out intact from the explosion. This whole scene is done incredibly well. I wonder about the secret weapon Satou is working on with Okuyama. They have a copious amount of explosives so is it a bomb? What do you guys think? The conversation between Kei and Hirasawa (aka Bald Guy) This conversation is a significant moment in Kei's characterisation. We haven't seen him display vulnerability publicly before as much as he does in this episode. How adorable was his blush when Kou compliments him!? I'm interested to see how his character develops over this season. The Bald Guy seems to be the first person to validate Kei's ability to remain rational at the expense of emotions and even view it as an asset to their mission. Kei, to my surprise, recounts his father's demise as a surgeon which came about when he took desperate measures to save a patient who lacked an organ donor by looking into the organ black market. Kei is apathetic in nature most likely because he doesn't want to end up like his dad and this fear resonates with his humanity. Remember Mr. Nekozawa - the dealer who provides weapons to Satou in exchange for organs? I wonder if Kei's father was connected more closely to Ajins than it is let on. Ajin with wings This IBM at the end is the sickest of them all. Move aside Kuro-Chan, this fallen angel is number one now. It will be interesting to watch it fight. We learn a lot more about IBM's thanks to the dope Professor Ikuya Ogura. A big shout out to Kai for being a cool bro and willing to help save Kei if needed despite being abandoned by him. Tosaki's Kidnapping Tosaki is kidnapped by American agents Douglas Almeida (aka a jerk) and Carly Myers on suspicion of having kidnapped Professor Ogura. Myers initially expresses reluctance about this as Tosaki is a Japanese official but Douglas is a misogynistic ass who treats her like scum and doesn't value her opinion. Tosaki's treatment of Izumi isn't exemplary but he didn't physically assault or torture her. I hope you kill him, Myers. Izumi tries to save Tosaki using her black ghost but it turns out Myers is also an Ajin and her IBM defeats Kuro-Chan who was weak to begin with as she had been summoned not too long ago. I'm adamant that had Kuro-chan been at full strength, Myers's IBM would have been defeated. Also, Tosaki deserves a round of applause for some mad acting skills when he was being questioned by the American Agents. In Episode 6, he holds up under torture and doesn't give away the hideout where not only is Professor Ogura held but the entire operation to defeat Satou is being planned and practiced. Izumi Shimomura's past This sad tale forced my heart through a shredder. We find out that Izumi's birth name was Tainaka Yoko. Her stepfather, a violent drunkard, tries to sell her out to the police to make money and her mother doesn't appear to fight hard enough to protect her only daughter. Feeling betrayed and lonely, Izumi escapes and lives rough on the streets working as a prostitute to survive. She appears to have caught a terminal disease and meets Tosaki during her stay in the hospital. Tosaki reveals that Izumi's mother had stabbed the stepfather in an attempt to protect Izumi however he had managed to stay alive long enough to pull the knife out from his body and stab her back with it. This resulted in both their deaths. Talk about dramatic! We get a clear understanding of their relationship in this episode. Tosaki enabled her to start a new life: she picked a new name and was given a new purpose – to protect Tosaki. Izumi is emotional when it comes to him because of a sense of gratitude that surpasses duty. I was surprised and impressed when she tackles Kei and shows him that he is unprepared to beat Satou if he can't even defeat her. I hope Kou regretted trying to white-knight her before by suggesting that a woman shouldn't do dangerous things. Kou, you were probably only concerned, but forgetting to deactivate the safety before firing a gun makes me think it is you who shouldn't be involved in dangerous missions. Changing Kei's mind isn't easy but Izumi persuades him by pointing out that Tosaki is the only one who knows when Hatter will attack the minister. All I can say is, you go gurl! Tosaki is lucky to have you as his bodyguard. This season keeps getting better! My only complaint is that the ending song by CreepHyp is intolerable. The opening song, a collaboration between pop duos fripSide and angela, sounds okay but I sorely miss flumpool from season 1. Do you guys agree with my choice of top moments from the episodes so far? Will Team Kei manage to rescue Tosaki in episode 7? Leave your thoughts in the comments below! [Ajin 2nd season is available to watch on Netflix]

JapanaFive: The best moments from AJIN's first season
Sep 14
// Karishma Roy
The Showdown between Izumi' and Tanaka's Black Ghost (IBM) Okay, my eyes were just as wide as Izumi's when she gets impaled by these massive black claws. I screamed along with Erito because I thought she was a goner. But, DUN DUN DUN, she is an Ajin as well. Our cute, seemingly timid and often blushing Izumi goes all fierce revealing her very own Black Ghost Kuro-Chan #GirlPower. The fight was kickass and we learn that a black ghost can destroy another by delivering a deadly blow to the head. Was Tanaka covering his eyes because it helped him concentrate better when controlling his IBM? Not sure. I was worried for Erito 'cause I was sure Satou would've killed her but I'm glad she's sticking around. This Torture Scene I put my Oreos aside and tried not to be sick as I watched this. Kei was brutally tortured as part of the experimental process on Ajins. Clinical equipment including a frickin' drill and a surgical saw was used as a machine measured his brain activity in reaction to the excruciating pain being inflicted upon him. Clearly these surgeons need ethics 101: don't cut off someone's arm for no legit reason. The xenophobic nature within this society is obvious in the face of fear driven atrocities such as this. Kei's muffled screams made me wish I had my own black ghost and could barge in there and save him. Despite everything, he decided not to kill the surgeons because he was afraid to lose his friendship with Kaito. That moved my heart. Bring me more Kaito and Kei please! Do you guys think these experiments have valid reasoning? Who are the real monsters in this situation: humans or Ajins? Satou's rescue mission Satou is a misanthropic badass. His one man show where he destroys all the armed security guards in the lab to save Kei is so much fun to watch. The dude cuts off his own arm and shoots himself before the tranquilising darts take effect. Killing people is a game to him and he is winning. It was interesting to note that memories can be exchanged between IBM's during Kei and Satou's showdown on the rooftop. The performance that Satou gave in front of the media following this was remarkable – he can cry on cue! Plus it was an incredibly smart move to announce a protest against the Government so publicly to gather more Ajins in the country. Love him or hate him, you got to be impressed with him. Team Satou demolishing Grant Pharmaceuticals This was the most EPIC scene in the whole of season 1. I laughed when I noticed the name "Clean Fox Company". You are indeed as cunning as a fox, hat man. Satou arranges an explosion in a nearby skyscraper so it falls on the pharmaceutical building and crushes it. His manic laughs as he rode the falling building gave me chills. And it was kind of cool how he loses his hat when going down, but then a drone delivers another one to him as soon as he is ready to move. Kei watches this whole incident on TV while enjoying a chocolate- chip cookie. Remind me, who is meant to be the hero again? Props to the humans for deploying some smart tactics but despite their numbers and combat experience were defeated by the evil genius. Kei and Kou's escape Firstly, a huge shoutout to the Obasan that protected Kei in the village and was ace at pretending to be a hostage. Most old ladies would've had a heart attack. Heck, I would've peed myself! I was surprised that Kei went through the trouble of saving Kou but it makes sense for two people to take on Satou. Or perhaps Kei was just in the mood for a benevolent act. There was yet another cool action scene between IBM's. Kuro- Chan has got some mad skills to defeat four of Kei's IBM's. Is she just incredibly strong or are Kei's black ghosts weak since he produces so many? The end of this struggle was almost romantic. Sunset painted the sky with brilliant hues of orange and red as both boys tied each other together to avoid separation before jumping off a cliff into the deep waters *Cue "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion* Although that means drowning time and over before washing up somewhere. I've got more to say about Ajin's second season coming up, but it's safe to say: Do not judge this anime by your first look at it. Yes, the CGI did initially hurt my eyes as well but the show is thrilling, fast-paced, and before too long, you're too invested in the plot to even notice it.
Let's break down the highlights
Would you want to live forever? Even if it meant that practically the entire human race wanted you imprisoned? I'm talking secret government agencies who want to torture experiment on you, bounty hunters and national pr...
Review: Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV
Aug 21
// Josh Tolentino
[embed]35209:5798:0[/embed] Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XVStudio: Square Enix Visual WorksDirector: Takeshi NozueLicensed by: Sony PicturesPremiere: August 19, 2016 (US, Asia) , July 9, 2016 (Japan) Have you ever seen a "game movie"? The term refers to a subgenre of game Youtube videos wherein players capture recordings of various video games' cutscenes or story sequences, to be viewed by audiences removed from the context of actually playing the game. Some more ambitious versions try to edit the clips together in a coherent fashion, potentially removing the need for players who can't finish or don't own the game in question to actually play it at all, leaving only the narrative to bring things home. Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV feels like an extremely expensive, fabulously ambitious iteration of that particular trend. It's not quite the same, of course. Players who pick up Final Fantasy XV in November won't see much of Kingsglaive's actual events onscreen, as the film is a two-hour-long setup and prequel to the events of the game. The Kingdom of Lucis is in danger. Ruled by the wise King Regis (played by Game of Thrones' Sean Bean), Lucis is the last place unconquered by the Empire of Niflheim. Its defenders are the titular Kingsglaive, a squad of soldiers that wield magic channeled to them by Regis, from a magic crystal that is the source of Lucis' power and the only thing standing between Niflheim's technological prowess and world domination. Unfortunately, the war is coming to a close, with Regis aging and the crystal's power flagging in the face of "The Nif's" magitek weapons and demonic thralls. It's in this spirit that Regis accepts a peace deal, to marry off his son (and the game's protatgonist) Noctis to Lunafreya (played by Game of Thrones' Lena Heady), princess of the Niflheim-ruled province of Tenebrae. When all is not at it seems on the eve of the treaty signing, it's up to Kingsglaive's star fighter Nyx Ulrich (played by Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul) to save the day and have a hand in kicking off whatever's set to happen in the game proper. While the plot is barely coherent and its relevance to Final Fantasy XV is largely confined to explaining why Noctis and his buddies are on the other side of the world in the first place, Kingsglaive's most solid achievement is visual. Produced by Square Enix's legendary Visual Works studio, the film succeeds at visualizing the setting of the game, creating the kind of mental space in future players' minds that can reconcile the stylistic absurdities of typical Final Fantasy and the more grounded, modern aesthetic of the real world. The world of Kingsglaive (and by extension, the game) is the kind of place where it makes sense for contemporary office buildings, cellphones, TVs, and product placement stands comfortably alongside the overdesigned costumes, massive creatures, and elaborate magical spells and effects. To its credit, it's the most convincing iteration yet of the series' penchant for techno-fantasy flourish. Beyond that, though, Kingsglaive is hardly essential. Despite initial misgivings, the core cast do credible work in their roles, elevating the otherwise cheesy and overly self-serious script. Supporting characters, however, come across as a bit too cartoonish, the delivery never quite overcoming the tension between the realistic facial designs and otherwise very "anime" words coming out of the characters' mouths. The action itself, though, is well-rendered, if a bit difficult to follow. The Kingsglaive members all use some variation of the game's combat, wielding teleporting knives and plenty of flashy effects to burn, shock, and blast the HP off of an assortment of classic Final Fantasy beasts. Unfortunately, some ill-conceived zooms and use of "shaky-cam" effects during some fight scenes make what should be the most pivotal moments of the film an exercise in trying to puzzle out just what's happening. Final Fantasy fans can also expect some clever fan service, sighting cool callbacks to timeless franchise easter eggs, some subtle, and some overt. In the end, whether Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV will be worthwhile largely depends on one's anticipation for Final Fantasy XV. By its very nature it's skippable, but fans who plan on immersing themselves in the game come November will likely find something to appreciate.

Japanator Doesnt Recommend: Dragon Age Dawn of the Seeker
Jul 12
// Pedro Cortes
Dragon Age: Dawn of the SeekerStudio: OxybotLicensed by FUNimationRelease Date: May 29th, 2012MSRP: $34.98 (BD) | $24.98 (DVD) Available at Amazon (DVD BluRay) | RightStuf (DVD Bluray) Before we get into the review proper, I'll rundown some of the history you need to know. There's a lot of stuff they could've put in here, but luckily they stuck to the basic Mage/Templar conflict and stayed away from the heavy political intrigue and racial conflicts. In the world of Dragon Age, Thedas, magic isn't a gateway to awesome. It's viewed by many as a curse that can lead people into getting possessed by any number of demons. In order to combat this, the Chantry formed the Templars, an organization that went out of its way to protect people from rouge mages, and the Circle of the Magi, towers that housed mages in order to teach them to control their powers and, you know, not harm the general populace. Unfortunately, many Templars let their power get to their heads. Instead of protecting the people of Thedas, the Templars oppress all magic users. This causes many people who would calmly join the Circles to instead run away and cause untold mischief. The Chantry thus created the Seekers, a group of agents that secretly keep an eye on the Templars and perform important activities that other arms of the church cannot. Thus, you have a circle of conflict between the Seekers, the Chantry and the Mages, both in the Circle and running about. With that in mind, let's get into the movie. Dawn of the Seeker features Cassandra Pentaghast, a young Seeker in Orlais that gets involved in a massive conspiracy. The whole thing starts with Cassandra and a group of Seekers attacking a group of mages said to be working some dark magic. They discover that the mages were prepping a young girl kidnapped from the local Orlisian Circle for some sort of dark ritual. When the girl isn't returned to the Circle upon her return, Cassandra's mentor decides to take matters into his own hands and get her to safety. Of course, things go wrong when the surviving mage from earlier returns, takes the girl and leaves Cassandra's mentor dead. With the help of Galyan, her mentor's contact within the Circle, Cassandra escapes and works out who is behind the conspiracy with the little girl and what it has to do with the Chantry and Orlais. When they find out how deep the betrayal runs, it's up to Cassandra and Galyan to prevent a massive disaster that will bring down the Orlisian Chantry. To be blunt, this is a pretty boring story. While I don't mind a tale that's been told before, I am not fond of something so utterly rote and lacking in anything original. You know that Cassandra's mentor is going to die, you know who the traitor is and how everything is going to go down. Everything is telegraphed with nary any subtlety in sight. There are a lot of interesting ideas in the world of Dragon Age as presented in the games, so it's disappointing that there's very little substance here. Then again, this is set in a world that has other criss-crossing points of fiction, so I can see why the story couldn't change the face of the land itself. This is supposed to be set before the events of Dragon Age 2, so they'd have to keep somethings consistent. Besides the general story, none of the characters are particular interesting. Cassandra is fairly cute, but there's nothing that separates her from the other characters besides her hate of anything magic due to a tragic past. She acts like you typical hot-headed tsundere. Galyan is pretty bland as well, having no sort of flair besides general human decency. None of the villains were memorable either. Hell, these guys are as cookie-cutter fantasy as you can get. The nicest thing I can say is that the English voices were pretty well done. I typically stick to Japanese language when I have the choice, but the US voices actually emote when necessary. The only positive thing I can say about the Japanese language track is that the villain is voiced by GACKT. If you dig the voice of androgynous vampire rock stars, then be my guest and give it a listen. Besides that, stick with the English voices. The visuals were also a bit disappointing. It doesn't look good in motion. In stills, it looks nice. Great, in fact. However, when people start hoping around and sword fighting, it looks like a mediocre cutscene from a game. I will say that the designs themselves look nice. As mentioned early, I found Cassandra to be visually appealing and I dug the demon and dragon designs. Besides that, it's not a good looking production. In terms of special features, you've got a tour of Bioware's studio, a backstage feature for Dawn of the Seeker, production art and your usual slate of previews. It's nothing that will sell you on the product, but they're OK. I dug the Bioware tour, but that's because I really like their games. If you aren't a big fan, then it's unlikely to impress you. Hell, if you aren't a fan of Bioware or their games, why would you even buy this? And that there is the crux of the problem here. If you aren't a fan of the Dragon Age franchise or a staunch supporter of Bioware, there is little reason to pick up this movie. It assumes a lot of fore-knowledge that a quick tutorial before the beginning of the film cannot give. I even find it difficult to recommend this to fans of the Dragon Age games, as it adds little to nothing to the overall lore. At its best, Dawn of the Seeker is a inoffensive distraction. At its worst, it's 90 minutes you'll never have back. 4.0 – Subpar. Though not offensively bad, this one is just plainly poor. It'll find dogged defenders, but just can't appeal to anyone outside that deluded circle.
In my experience with anime and video games, it's not often that a Western property gets any sort of love in Japan. While plenty of Japanese games and media get attention in the States and Europe, it seems pretty typical for ...

Anthony Redgrave
Kizumonogatari films 1+2 are technically marvellous and brilliant adaptation of the highlights from the source material. Despite the Monogatari origins it is not beginner friendly. A lot of Monogatari staples are omitted/muted and has more horror elements

DS week in Paris – celebrating 60 years of history
As part of the DS WEEK, to be held in Paris from 19 to 24 May, DS is preparing a major event to join its global network in celebrating 60 years of the DS and the launch of the DS Brand.
The public is also invited to explore the DS Exhibition in the Jardin des Tuileries on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 May. Over nearly 4,000 m2, visitors will be immersed in the world of DS and travel in time between the past, the present and the future.
Fans, meanwhile, will have a unique experience on Sunday 24 May as more than 600 DS parade along the Champs-Élysées.
These can be admired on Saturday at the historic Linas-Montlhéry track (near Paris), at the international gathering for the 60th anniversary of this legendary car. This will be the largest concentration of DS collectors in the world this year.
Launched in 1955, the DS is still one of the most popular French automotive icons of the 20th century. Made popular by its commercial success, as well as its political career, particularly with General De Gaulle, its cinematic appearances and its sporting success, the DS made its mark on the lives of many people in France and spread French know-how around the world.
Building on this exceptional heritage, the ambition of the DS brand, created on June the 1st 2014, is to perpetuate the avant-garde spirit of this legendary car and allow the French vehicle market to reconnect with luxury. The DS brand therefore offers cars which stand out for their remarkable style, their technology, their dynamic comfort and their meticulous refinement.
To celebrate 60 years of the original DS and to mark the launch of the brand, DS is organising a major event in the heart of Paris from 19 to 24 May 2015. For the first four days it will be welcoming its global network, while on 23 and 24 May the public will also be able to discover the DS Exhibition.
Meanwhile, the largest meeting of the year of original DS vehicles will be held on Saturday 23 May at the Linas-Montlhéry race track, attended by more than 600 cars. These will make the journey to Paris on Sunday 24 May to process along the banks of the Seine and the Avenue des Champs-Elysées to the Place de la Concorde, where they will remain for much of the day. This international gathering was organised by Le Monde de la DS, an association of fans supported by the DS brand.
In 2015, its launch year, the DS brand will be presenting to the public a fabulous exhibition in the Jardin des Tuileries in Paris on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 May.
Designed in the style of a Haussmannian boulevard flanked by six shops and cars, the DS Exhibition will immerse the public in the world of DS for a journey through time from 1955 to the near future. Entry to the DS Exhibition is free and unrestricted. Events for children will be on offer as well as meetings with DS experts (particularly designers and saddlers from the brand's Style Centre).
To prolong and share this fantastic experience, the DS Exhibition will also be connected. On arrival, all visitors will receive a device linked to the "MyDSweek" application allowing them to save their very own souvenirs by downloading content and photos of the event. They also have the option of sharing this on social networks.
Cinema. DS takes centre stage! From the 1950s to the present day, cinema has been fond of the DS. Whether in the starring role or simply as an extra, the DS has appeared in numerous films and series, in France and abroad. Its unique style has inspired film-makers from André Hunebelle's Fantômas se Déchaîne to The Mentalist with Simon Backer, via Steven Spielberg's Back to the Future. Extracts from the DS's film career will be screened.
Photo gallery. Star for an evening, star for a day, star forever! Honoured by the most famous photographers as well as admiring and passionate amateurs, the DS conquered the world as soon as it was unveiled to the public in 1955.
Unusual, elegant, dynamic and refined, this exceptional automobile has been popular with statesmen, celebrities, film-makers and rally drivers… The Gallery presents a selection of its greatest images and visitors can also have the star experience thanks to the Studio Harcourt cabin installed for the occasion.
Techno Lab. A range of connectivity options in tune with the digital world, efficient and high-performance engines, smart driving technology, 3D digital cluster display, dynamic and safe driving, spectacular headlights – DS experts work on all these aspects on a daily basis! The Techno Lab will give visitors a first-hand experience of the DS – a decidedly technological object!
Design. It is difficult to talk about the DS without evoking its avant-garde design. Whether an original DS or one of the models in the current range, a DS is unlike anything else! From 1955, the DS stood out both for its new technologies and its revolutionary and elegant design.
Sixty years on, the history of the DS continues. Numerous stylish designs exhibited in this shop will illustrate this.
Workshop. Here, visitors will notice that the DS pays the closest attention to the refinement and detailing on its cars. They will discover the sources of inspiration for the DS, drawing on excellence in the fields of fine jewellery, saddlery, haute couture and world famous French expertise. Embroidery, metalwork, semi-aniline leather, incrusted jewellery, etc. The attention to detail, the choice of high-quality materials and the "bespoke" approach specific to the brand give it unique stylistic codes.
DS Shop. Whether you are a fan of the DS or simply have an eye for design, in this shop you will find all the lifestyle products designed and created by the brand to extend the DS experience into daily life.
DS in the street. Throughout the exhibition, the public will be able to discover or rediscover the vintage DS through five models on show, alongside the modern DS (including the DS 3, DS 3 CABRIO, DS 4, New DS 5). The future-focussed NUMERO 9 concept car will be another star of the show.
Saturday 23 May 2015 at the Linas-Montlhéry race track
This historic track outside Paris will host the largest annual and international meeting of of vintage DS. Organised by Le Monde de la DS (www.lemondedelads.com – an association created by the collectors' clubs DS Club Révolution 55, Idéale DS France and DS ID Club de France) and supported by Amicale des Clubs Citroën France and Amicale Citroën Internationale as well as by the DS brand, this meeting is being specially organised to celebrate 60 years of this legendary car.
More than 600 cars are expected, bringing 1,500 fans from more than 10 countries. Registration is still open for DS owners to enjoy an exceptional event. The meeting will also be open to the public from 10am to 6pm. Entry for over 12 year olds costs €15. The programme includes an elegance competition and demonstrations on the track.
Sunday 24 May, a procession of 600 DS through Paris
At 7am, 600 DS from Linas-Montlhéry will emerge from the Parc de Saint-Cloud and head for the Place de la Concorde in Paris. The procession will pass along the edge of the Seine by the Quai de Javel where this legendary car was born, before heading towards the Grand Palais where, on 6 October 1955, the DS was unveiled to the public at the Salon de Paris.
The highlight of the parade will no doubt be driving down one of the most beautiful avenues in the world, the Champs-Élysées. Finally, the procession will reach Place de la Concorde where it will remain for some of the day while Parisians and tourists take the opportunity to admire the cars.
In May 2015, the DS brand will proclaim its Parisian roots louder than ever!

And the signs – the body language of the players, the air of doom around the place and the team's capitulation against a poor Bolton side – suggest it is only a question of when, not if, Portsmouth will be relegated.
After five matches, a team of strangers have made the record books by suffering Portsmouth's worst start to any League season.
The gallows humour later told its own story. When one reporter told Portsmouth's Paul Hart that he had a bad back, the manager quipped; "I've got two." Gary Megson, Bolton's manager, on hearing of the journalist's plight, said: "I've got four."
They were joking, of course; their troubles are that both have poor sides. Bolton did enough to suggest they will survive, but Portsmouth are a car crash waiting to happen.
Tamir Cohen's fine strike put Bolton ahead, and after Younes Kaboul levelled, Tal Ben Haim — one of five Portsmouth debutants — fouled Kevin Davies and Matt Taylor converted the penalty. Another new face, Kevin-Prince Boateng, equalised, but, with a minute left, Gary Cahill claimed the winner.
At half-time, Jimmy Stephen, 87, a 1950 title-winner with Portsmouth, was introduced to the crowd. "Sign him up," sang the Fratton faithful.

- 2 pounds medium mussels, scrubbed and debearded
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 medium onions, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 5 large plum tomatoespeeled, seeded and sliced
- 1 pound waxy potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8 inch thick
- 2 small zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Preheat the oven to 375°. Place the mussels in a deep skillet and add 3 tablespoons of water. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring frequently. As the mussels just open, transfer them to a large platter with a slotted spoon. (They will continue cooking later.) Strain the liquid through a sieve lined with several layers of dampened cheesecloth and reserve. (You should have about 1/4 cup of liquid.) Remove the mussels from their shells.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large nonreactive skillet. Add half of the sliced onions and all of the garlic and cook over low heat until softened but not browned, about 7 minutes. Add the tomatoes, raise the heat to moderate and cook until they have cooked down to a thick sauce, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a medium sauce-pan of water to a rolling boil. Add the potato slices and cook until just tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain well.
Brush the bottom of a deep 2-quart ceramic baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Spread one-third of the tomato sauce over the bottom. Top with half of the remaining raw onions followed by half of the mussels, zucchini slices and potatoes. Sprinkle with one half of the parsley, basil, oregano, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and salt and pepper. Cover with another third of the tomato sauce and repeat the layering with the remaining ingredients, ending with the tomato sauce. Sprinkle the bread crumbs, grated cheese and the remaining olive oil over the top.
In a small bowl, combine the reserved mussel liquid with 1/4 cup of hot water. Pour the liquid gently down the side of the baking dish to keep the vegetables from sticking. Cover the dish with a double layer of aluminum foil and bake for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are very tender; remove the foil during the last 15 minutes to brown the top. Let cool slightly, then serve hot or at room temperature.

Sicilianità by Dolce & Gabbana
Posted on Friday 05th of March 2010 under Art | Fashion | General
World famous designers Dolce & Gabbana have recently been on the news for their return to Sicily as source of inspiration for their latest collections and for their interest in finding a direct way to communicating to people via the many possibilities the internet offers, like opening up the front row of their fashion show to bloggers or creating pre-show diaries on their website. I follow Stefano Gabbana on Twitter and love to see the photos he uploads, like the ones I used on this post.

Prague is the capital city of Czech Republic. The proper city is home to some 1,2 million people; the metropolitan area to about 700,000 more. The city was founded in the latter part of the 9th century, but was inhabited by Celtic and Germanic tribes as far back as 200 BC. Prague is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities of Europe.

What would you like to do?
How do you rent an apartment if you have crappy or no credit and landlords keep saying no?
As a reference, I just completed 20 years in apartment management in March 2005. Your situation is tough but not impossible. Most companies these days use third party agencies to develop rental credit scores, which have no direct comparison to credit bureau scores (usually referred to as beacon or fico). These other systems incorporate bureau scores, rental history, and court records (public information) to arrive at a score.
Management companies typically have input into what criteria is included as well as what final scores are acceptable, straight or conditional (extra deposits, shorter term leases, etc.) Ultimately, the quality of the community, the current occupancy rate, and the location of the property, combined, will dictate an often fluctuating policy. Your possibilities include:
Management companies typically have input into what criteria is included as well as what final scores are acceptable, straight or conditional (extra deposits, shorter term leases, etc.) Ultimately, the quality of the community, the current occupancy rate, and the location of the property, combined, will dictate an often fluctuating policy. Your possibilities include:
- State straight up that your credit score is bad, and offer to
pay the maximum security deposit allowed by law in the state.
Maryland for example is twice the rental rate agreed upon. Some
management companies like United Dominion Realty Trust offer this
option at almost all of their communities. Look them up on line and
at udrt.com and then following the system through the looking for
an apartment function. In addition, you may want to check
allcreditrentals.com, which is the website featuring professionally
listed apartment communities that helps people with low credits
find the apartment they want.
- Ask if you can have a trial 3 or 6 month lease at the typically
higher short-term lease rate. Request the possibility of then
converting to a years lease after proving your payment ability
during the initial term. Some companies will do this when
accompanied by a larger deposit, not necessarily the maximum
allowable deposit in section 1 above.
- Cosigners are accepted at many communities. Cosigners are
usually required to have impeccable credit and significant incomes,
because they are agreeing to cover your rent in addition to their
own housing obligation should you default. Great credit implies
that they won't let you damage their credit, thus covering the
- Finally, find a community that will allow you to be an occupant while someone else is the leaseholder. 50/50 chance. Many properties require anyone 18 or above to be a leaseholder which is not what you'd be looking to happen. The gray area on this approach is that the other person is supposed to be living in the apartment. Otherwise, they shift from the title "leaseholder" roommate to someone subleasing the apartment to you. Many apartments reject the latter. I can't suggest lying because if caught, the landlord will issue a notice to vacate.
Was this answer useful?
Thanks for the feedback!
Can you rent and apartment with a 630 credit score?
Absolutely. 630 is not the worst score in the world. Depending on where, a landlord may ask your for a larger security deposit or for a guarantor that will guarantee your paym…ent. It also helps to show pay stubs, tax returns, and letters of employment.
How do l rent a apartment or house with bad credit?
You can rent an apartment with bad credit. Be prepared to put down a larger deposit as they may consider you a bad risk. Also consider a co-signer to vouch for your. You can a…lso rent for a shorter period of time, say 3 months and pay that rent in advance. The main thing is to get your foot in the door and then prove yourself.
How will renting two apartments at the same time effect your credit?
If you are paying rent on time for both apartments, there will be no impact on your credit report or credit score. Landlords use credit bureaus to check the credit of potenti…al renters, however, they very rarely report abuse until the renter is many months behind. Having two rental units should not impact your credit score unless you have missed a number of rent payments.
How long does a landlord have to sue for unpaid rent in New York City after you have vacated the apartment?
Check the landlord/tenant laws for your state. If they are going to sue, they must notify you--often by certified letter. However, the issue may be moot if they were abl…e to rent the place out right away. If it has been awhile, you can avoid wondering by giving them a call. By the way, leaving without having all of this resolved, along with a walk through after you moved, puts you into a bad situation if the house/apartment is found to be in poor condition. It is so much better in the long run to face up to (and pay) what you must.
How can you rent an apartment with no credit?
You may be required to have a co-signer or a roommate that does have credit.
Can you rent an apartment with bad credit if you have a co-signer?
Answer Probably yes. It's really up to the apartmant management who they approve as renters. Some will want your co-signer with good credit to be the legal tenant…, with you on the lease as another occupant. Then if you don't pay the rent, the co-signer is responsible. They also may be more flexible if you put up a larger deposit, an additional 1-2 months rent. Sometimes smaller apartment complexes or those owned by an individual will have less stringent guidelines.
Can a landlord charge different amounts for rent on same size apartments in same complex?
Yes. No two apartments are exactly the same. In fact, in the U.S. at least, a landlord can offer the same unit to one person at one price, and to another person at another pri…ce. As long as there is no discrimination against a protected class, that's perfectly legal. For instance, I could offer an apartment to Ted for $1,000, and to his brother Steve for $800.
How do you rent an apartment with bad credit?
Yes, you can rent an apartment with a poor credit history, though you will have to be a little creative. Be prepared to pay a larger rental deposit or rent for a shorter perio…d of time say, 3 to 6 months and pay the rent in advance. There is always a way to rent an apartment, just keep an open mind.
Where can you rent an apartment in Tacoma if you have bad credit?
Few traditional property owners or management companies will rent an apartment to you if you have demonstrably bad credit. Some ways to manage that include: * Putting down a …higher security deposit (3-6 months instead of 1-2 months) * Ask someone with better credit to apply with you and then have them "leave" the rental after a month * Look for apartments next to or very close to colleges and universities - property owners tend to be a bit more lax in those areas
How often the landlord should paint the apartment you rent?
I'm no lawyer but... The landlord's general duty is to make it habitable. Fresh paint isn't really needed for that, so don't expect the law to require him to refresh the p…aint while you're there. As a tenant, you have a general duty to maintain the property's condition so washing the walls is your job.
Where can you rent an apartment in Harrisburg pa if you have bad credit?
Anywhere, but they will probably ask for first and last months rent, as well as extra costs.
Does renting an apartment build your credit?
To have your credit rating affected by any creditor, they must report monthly to the credit agency. Landlords seldom, if ever, report regularly. They might check your credit b…efore you move in, but usually, the only time you are affected by a rental agreement, is if you default on the rent, AND you get sued for it, AND the landlord gets a judgment against you AND he registers the judgment with the credit reporting bureau. Then, you have an ugly black mark on your credit score. In order to bypass the legal process and go directly to screwing up your credit, the landlord must be a member of a credit reporting agency, and must report to them about you and all his other tenants monthly. Then, if you are in default, it would show the month following the default, or the second month following. Usually, you get one month grace. But if you are 2 months in arrears, and the landlord is sophisticated enough to be reporting monthly, you would have been kicked out already!
What can you do about not being able to rent an apartment due to identity theft that caused a bad credit report and landlords keep rejecting your applications?
Answer Documentation is probably your best friend in a situation like this. You need to be able to show that you're aware of the ID theft and have taken steps to… correct it. Depending on the kind of ID theft you experienced (i.e., someone using your credit, someone using your SS# for work history, someone using your name in criminal matters), you should file a report with the appropriate agency and keep copies of that report. If you haven't already, file a report of ID theft with your local police agency; many states now have laws stating that you may make such a report in your jurisdiction regardless of where the actual crime took place. You can check with your state attorney's office to see if this applies in your state. Also file a report with the FBI's Internet Fraud Complaint Center (www.ifccfbi.gov); this will help find the person(s) who commited the fraud as well as provide you with more documentation. If the fruad or ID theft involved the US mail, contact you local Postal Inspector and file a report there. IF someone is using your SS#, file a report with the Social Security Administration. You can check to see if someone is working under your SS# by obtaining a statement of earnings from the SSA. Finally, make sure for your own protection that you place a fraud alert on your credit; this can be done by contacting any one of the three credit reporting bureaus (Experian, Equifax adn TransUnion). Beware - fraud alerts expire and must be renewed, so make sure to check how long they'll last on your report. Also file disputes on any unauthorized accounts and get a copy of the dispute on paper. Keeping a file of reports saying, basicially, "I was a victim of ID theft and I can prove it" is a good start in protecting your character and credit. That said, landlords have the right to accept or reject whomever they choose, so all the documentation in the world won't help if you've got a stubborn landlord on your hands. But showing that you've done your work and pointing out good credit standing prior to the ID theft should help. It's said that the greatest toll on the victim of ID theft is the time involved in correcting the situation, which can take months or even years. Good luck and happy home hunting.
How do you rent an apartment if you have crappy or no credit?
You may get the co signer then you can rent the apartment without credit otherwise you can ask landlord to take security deposit after some time.
Does Equity Apartments accept credit cards for payment of rent?
Yes they accept credit card / debit as well.
In Plumbing
Can a landlord turn your hot water off if you are renting a apartment with all utility's included?
Sounds illegal to me, wherever you are. Certainly illegal in Canada.
How do you rent an apartment with bad credit and no cosigner?
You are at the mercy of potential landlords and your own bad credit history. There is no magic trick available. You may need to wait and save up a substantial security deposit… and try to build up a better credit history.

With two people in the house who won't eat eggs, brunch is
always a challenge. But, at WAVE restaurant in the W Chicago, we
found its "Nourish" brunch menu brimming with eggless options, not
to mention creatively re-imagined breakfast standards, including a
house-made Pop Tart.
Actually, to call Chef Subido's flaky, delicious pastry a
Pop Tart is to do it a great disservice, but that's what the menu
says. We started with a sampling of pear and cherry tarts and found
them fantastic. My 5-year-old declared the pear tart "way better
than the ones in the box."
My 8-year-old chose a straightforward fried egg with hash
browns, which were very flavorful with peppers and onions. My sons
also loved the short stack of pancakes, served with house-made
maple-butter. I opted for a goat cheese, mushroom and spinach
frittata, which was rich and delicious, certainly an unusually
decadent start to my Sunday. With all the fresh menu options plus
daily specials, my husband had a hard time deciding but finally
went with Chicken & Waffles, which arrived big enough to
fulfill brunch's promise of breakfast and lunch.
In addition to the great food, WAVE offers a beautiful
setting. Large windows overlook Lake Michigan while mirrored
columns reflect the light. The décor is both modern and
comfortable. Instead of traditional booths, customers are seated on
large couches with numerous pillows and bolsters, which my sons got
a kick out of rearranging.
Menu prices are quite reasonable, especially considering
the lakefront location. Brunch entrees are priced from $7 for
buttermilk biscuits and gravy to $14 for a grilled skirt steak
sandwich. Fresh pastries and a la carte extras round out the
options for under $5. You can quench your thirst with a variety of
fresh squeezed juices such as orange grapefruit or carrot
Attentive and knowledgeable service, combined with a
casual brunch atmosphere, make this hip city spot easy for
