The band recently released a music video for the track "Hollow," which is off the band's upcoming new album to be released in the Spring of 2013. Shot by award-winning director Roboshobo (Metallica, Mastodon, GreenDay), the hypnotically mind-trippy "Hollow" captures a man closed off and losing himself in an empty repetition of daily tasks until his last thread with reality is completely severed.
Set for a spring 2013 release, Alice In Chains' upcoming album was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Nick Raskulinecz (FooFighters, Deftones), who also produced the band's hugely successful 2009 release "Black Gives Way To Blue." That album entered Billboard's Top 200 at No. 5, sold over one million copies, spawned two No. 1 hit singles ("Check My Brain" and "Your Decision") and a third ("Lesson Learned") that went top 10, earned two Grammy nominations and saw the band (vocalist/guitarist Jerry Cantrell, vocalist/guitarist William DuVall, drummer Sean Kinney and bassist Mike Inez) headlining a sold-out international tour that wrapped at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Sunday Old School: Alice In Chains
Usually at the end of every month, Sunday Old School examines a band from the glam metal genre, so we're kicking off a new month of Sundays this week by taking a look at one of the bands that helped to kill off the era of men in lipstick, Alice In Chains. The band was formed in 1987 by guitarist Jerry Cantrell, drummer Sean Kinney and bass player Mike Starr, and soon recruited a singer named Layne Staley, who joined in return for Cantrell participating in his funk project. The funk band broke up soon afterwards and the quartet performed under a number of different monikers, before eventually settling on Alice In Chains, which stemmed from Staley's former band, Alice N' Chainz. The group caught the attention of local promoter, Randy Hauser, who offered to pay for their demo recording, which was delayed when the studio they were set to record in was shut down a day before the recording was meant to take place, due to the biggest cannabis raid in the history of the state of Washington. The band eventually recorded a demo named, "The Treehouse Tapes," which was passed around the local scene until it reached Don Ienner, the president of Columbia Records, who decided to sign the band and make them a top priority.
In July 1990, Alice in Chains released their first EP, "We Die Young," and its title track became an instant hit on metal radio. Based on this positive response, the label rushed the band to release its full length debut, which surfaced only a month later in the form of, "Facelift." The album sold modestly at first, until the music video for, "Man in the Box" found its way into regular airplay on MTV and became a top twenty single. Six weeks later, "Facelift" had sold over 400,000 copies and was certified Gold before the year was out, peaking on the Billboard Charts number 42. The album was also highly praised by critics and their peers alike, and soon the group were invited to open the Clash of the Titans tour in North America, which apart from themselves, featured a thrash metal lineup of Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax. The band found themselves subject to some hostile audiences but Anthrax bassist Frank Bello recalls them earning the respect of others by standing up for themselves. "If there was a guy starting shit, Layne would jump into the audience and beat the FUCK outta that guy!" he recalls in the documentary, Get Thrashed. More...

Alice In Chains' Mike Starr Reportedly Dead
TMZ.com is reporting that former Alice in Chains bassist Mike Starr has died in Utah. Starr was 44 years old. According to TMZ, police found his body in a Salt Lake City, Utah home earlier today. No information on the cause of death has yet been made available.
ABC News 4 in Salt Lake City is reporting that Starr's body was found at 1:42 p.m. in a residence at 1986 South Richards St. The station is also reporting that Starr was busted in February in Salt Lake City for illegal prescription drug possession.
Tributes to Starr have already been posted on his personal website - www.wix.com/mikestarr. The site also includes an undated posting from Starr which reads: "Wrote a killer song with my new band . . . We jammed last week at a small club. It was straight comedy."
Born in Hawaii, Starr played with AIC from the band's formation in Seattle in 1987 until he left in 1993. He also appeared on the 2010 reality TV show "Celebrity Rehab" with Dr. Drew Pinsky on VH1. Dr. Drew posted a message moments ago on his Twitter, which read: "Devastating to hear of Mike Starr succumbing to his illness. So very sad. Our prayers are with his family."
Additional information on this developing story will be updated as it is made available and as statements are made by family and friends.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Review @ GameBanshee
GameBanshee has posted an extensive 4-page review of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It appears a balanced article that, while ultimately very positive, does note a number of small issues. On some of the changes from the original:
The most obvious changes are those that have been made to the combat. In a thoughtful move, Human Revolution has been transformed into a pseudo-tactical shooter, at least as far as gunplay is concerned - and everyone knows that combat was one of the weakest aspects of Deus Ex, so the attempts to overhaul gunplay are welcome. The main way this has been accomplished is in the addition of a cover system - Jensen can duck behind cover, blind-fire over it, aim more precisely, roll from piece to piece, and so forth. Though my thoughts on cover-based shooters are generally less-than-amicable, in Human Revolution, it's handled with a degree of thoughtfulness that isn't always seen with this type of mechanic - using cover isn't an automatic "I win" button, and firing from behind it is generally extremely inaccurate, specially blind-firing. Next to other cover shooters it definitely feels a little bit on the clunky side (Gears of War this is not), but it certainly gets the job done. Thankfully, though, the cover system is never forced on you, and the game can be played as a straightforward first-person experience as well, so if you have a terminal hatred of such mechanics, you can simply ignore the feature and not miss out on anything - I rebound the cover key to some far-off region of my keyboard and never felt combat suffered for it.
On top of the cover system, and what significantly changes combat over the original Deus Ex, is the addition of a regenerating health system. A lot has been made of this, but in practice, I actually didn't find this to be too much of a problem. Once again, it's another design trend borrowed from more modern games, and surely it exists to appeal to fans of that trend, but, even on the normal difficulty, combat is challenging enough that a couple of stray bullets are enough to end Jensen's life, and the health regeneration itself takes quite a while to kick in, meaning that health-boosting items like painkillers still have a use when the going gets tough. Much of the resource management inherent in more traditional health systems has instead been shunted off to the energy that powers special abilities; limited numbers of energy-restoring items and a natural recharge of only a single energy unit ensure that even the most powerful of abilities don't become a crutch. While I suspect many fans will lament the loss of medkits and the need to heal individual body parts, nothing about the game's design led me to feel such an old-school option would have significantly improved the game, despite that I'm generally a proponent of medkits over regenerating health. In other words, yes, there's regenerating health, but it doesn't turn the game into Call of Duty, or even Mass Effect 2.

Victory Heights completes two villages
Dubai, January 13, 2010
Two out of the seven villages that make up the Victory Heights development in Dubai Sports City have seen 100 per cent completion, the developers have announced.
A total of 305 villas have been completed in the two villages of 'Estella' and 'Carmen', which account for the majority of the 350 villas already handed over to residents in the 961-unit Victory Heights development, a joint venture between Dubai Sports City and Bahrain-based Arcapita.
"The completion of 100 percent of the villas in these two villages is an important milestone in the delivery of the entire Victory Heights project," said Yasser Abdulrahman Al Raee, general manager at Victory Heights.
"Both villages have their own distinct feel, Estella has a busier feel due to its location next to community centre, which once complete will be at the heart of the entire community. When the centre is finished early in 2010 we plan to host regular events for all residents, such as BBQs and family fun days."
"In contrast, Carmen is an oasis of calm and tranquility. Situated right next to the Els Club golf course, it offers residents stunning views of the greens and lakes, giving the feeling of being completely away from it all," Al Raee added.
The first phase of construction has been carried out by Al Jaber Group and L&T Western as part of a Dh977 million contract that saw the first homes being handed over in early 2009.
Due to its location within Dubai Sports City, residents in Victory Heights have easy access to a plethora of world-class sporting facilities, making it an ideal place for those who enjoy an active lifestyle.
As well as being surrounded by the award-winning 18-hole Els Club golf course, the development is within walking distance of The Butch Harmon School of Golf, where both beginners and seasoned players can work on their game.
Just five minutes drive away is the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, where national and international cricket and football matches are played, while five Sporting Academies offering world-class coaching to children of all ages in football, hockey, rugby, swimming, and cricket are due to open in early 2010.
"If you are into an active lifestyle and enjoy sports then Victory Heights really is the place to be. Everything you can think of in the sporting world is right on your doorstep," confirmed Al Raee.
The villas in the development are built in three different styles; authentic Spanish Andalusian, bold Mediterranean, and classic European styles.-TradeArabia News Service

This thread is for the mamas who have a long road ahead of them... Naomi started this thread because she felt that the Big Mamas face different struggles when working on weight loss.

Weight Loss Plan Work out, eat right, have fun.
Hey ladies, can I come back, again?! I cannot believe I gained 10 lbs back of my 40 lost last year. I took 3 months off during the holidays and basically lost all sugar control I had gained over the last year. I am so sad to see that number on the scale but really, it's just 10 lbs, I didn't gain back the whole 40 over night. The weather around here is finally perking up a bit and that means I can work out more again. I don't pay for gym memberships, but love love love to get outside and play with my kids on the trampoline, go jogging, etc.
So, I need to buckle down and get strict with sugar again. It is my Achilles heel. It is what I can only equate to what must be like a drug addiction. It's brutal. Seriously brutal. So, that's my one goal this month - NO SUGAR. None. Nada. Not a bite. It's not worth the crashes, the tears, the craving and hunting for it. This is a full scale addiction. If it were alcohol, my kidneys would have given out already.
Re: The Big Mamas March Thread
Your name Laurel
Starting Weight 185 (195 the month before I "officially" started)
Current Weight 155
Short-Term Goal 155 (into the healthy BMI!!!) by October1--MET!-- Long-Term Goal 135lbs or 50 lbs lost
New Short Term Goal- Maintain weight and not gain over Christmas
Weight Lost to Date 30lbs
Weight Loss Plan Eat to keep blood sugar under control, track food using Myfitnesspal, add in exercise again.
And another month of starting at 155. Hoping I can end lighter. really hoping I'll get the lb I got off last month off again soon.
The sad thing is the above is a cut and paste from last month and it's still accurate. Am I ever going to start losing again?
Re: The Big Mamas March Thread
Macy- I just posted this in the other thread. HOping it helps my sugar addiction: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2013/02/h...-cookies.html#

And Amber, a while ago you were trying to do a vegi tray or something and I remember the ranch dip was stumping me. Well, I found this today and I thought of you: http://www.nourishingmeals.com/2009/...ng-recipe.html
Re: The Big Mamas March Thread
Macy, you're not the only one with a sugar addiction. When DH leaves (he deploys soon) I'm going to really tackle mine. I thought about doing it earlier, but Autumn and I are going on a mission trip later this month, and I don't know what's going to be on the menu that week and I don't feel like putting in the effort to make sure I can eat super clean, so I'll eat as clean as I can.
Re: The Big Mamas March Thread
Oh, and Laurel, don't stress over the month being a copy and paste. I've had the same stats for a year or so, despite the good months.

You never know where a little piece of antiquity might turn up.
A passenger whose bags were being inspected at Oakland International Airport was found to be carrying a priceless pre-Columbian figurine, rolled up in a wad of t-shirts. The tiny relic, only about 2 inches long, was found by a tourist hiking the mountains of western Mexico.
Removing items is strictly forbidden for foreigners -- you can't even remove a rock without permission, according to the General Consul of Mexico. It's not unheard of for looters to steal the antiques to sell in markets abroad.
In this case, the removal seems to have been an innocent mistake. The tourist in question was surprised to learn that picking up objects and bringing them home isn't allowed. It's possible that erosion or farmwork may have revealed the long-buried item.
The statue was returned to grateful Mexican officials this week. Experts estimate that the piece dates from somewhere before the 15th century, and may have been a foot for a vase or urn. It looks like a little stone rod with a rudimentary face carved into it.
The passenger willingly surrendered the artifact to customs agents at the airport. No word on whether it was forced to undergo an intrusive pat-down by TSA agents, or to have its genitals x-rayed.

CEFAC [online]. 2012, vol.14, n.4, pp.659-668. Epub 13-Dez-2011. ISSN 1982-0216. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-18462011005000141.
PURPOSE: to analyze children and adolescent performance in plain temporal resolution hearing skills based on the following variables: age, gender, complaint and speech pathology diagnose. METHOD: the survey had 400 subjects, between 4 and 14-year old, evaluated from July 2006 to July 2010. Selection procedures were anamnesis and hearing processing tests : memory for verbal sequences (MSSV) and non verbal in sequence (MSSNV). Data were explored using SPSS 1.2. To analyze data Pearson's Chi-Square Test was used, within a 5% significance level. The study was carried out after obtaining necessary approvals from Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais's Research Ethics Committee. RESULTS: from the 400 subjects, 262(65.5%) were male and 138 (34.5%) female. 138 patients(34.5%) showed worse results in MSSV, 109 (27.5%) in MSSNV. There was no statistically significant difference between genders. It was possible to note statistically significance when crossing results from MSSV and MSSNV and the patients' complaints: speech disorders, voice disorders, reading or writing skills. It was also possible to find statistical association when crossing speech pathologist diagnosis and hearing processing tests: voice disorders, cognitive aspects and language functions. Test results get better with advanced chronological age. CONCLUSIONS: auditory temporal hearing processing is fundamental for communication abilities; and subjects with speech pathology alterations diagnoses have worse results in MSSNV and MSSV when compared with normal subjects.

Chief Keef has been causing quite the stir.
Just last month, his single, I Don't Like shot up the charts after Kanye West added himself, Big Sean, Pusha T, and Jadakiss to the remix. Within days, a bidding war ensued and the youngster was trying to choose between his three front-runners; YMB, CME, and Atlantic among others.
Now, it looks like the new teen dream has finally chosen a home at a major label, making his announcement last week.
"I've been talkin' to a lot of labels, but I just noticed that Interscope got people like 50, Eminem," he said. "They was talkin' like I was talkin' and I liked that. All these other labels, I was talkin' to 'em, but it's time anyway for me and I'm goin' with Interscope."
Other interested parties put up a good fight, with heavy hitters like Birdman and T.I. clamoring to sign the sixteen-year-old Chicagoan. Last month, Birdman sounded confident that he would sign Keef to Cash Money Records.
"I like him, he kinda reminds me of us," he told MTV News. [He's] out the streets, I think he's swagged up and I'm definitely talking to his people and I'd like to see if we can make it pop, see if I can see if I can get him to be down with the team."
Like many others in the rap game, the YMCMG CEO seemed to be impressed by Keef's youthful outlook.

KARACHI: Karachi cannot deal with existing climate risks, let alone those that could strike it in the future, was one of the direr messages delivered at a seminar on Tuesday.
Moreover, urban planners say the government's national climate change policy doesn't take urban areas into consideration despite Karachi's vulnerability to climate change.
"If you go through the national climate change policy you will fail to see the word 'urban' in there and this is appalling," says Farhan Anwar from Shehri-Citizens for a Better Environment.
Anwar was speaking at a seminar and presented a report on 'Climate Change Adaptation Strategy for Karachi – A Roadmap'. The seminar was held in collaboration with the NED University of Engineering and Technology and the chairperson of its architecture and planning department, Dr Noman Ahmed, also spoke.
According to Anwar, cities worldwide only occupy two per cent of land on earth but consume around 75% of its resources. This is why it is up to cities to adapt to climate change.
Anwar's exhaustive report compiled over the course of five weeks isn't all encompassing but aims to begin a conversation on the issue. The report observes that flooding is one of the most urgent issues that need to be tackled to protect Karachi from climate change.
Karachi is vulnerable to four types of flooding. The first is fluvial flooding – flooding from rivers or streams – and in Karachi's case the Malir and Lyari rivers are focus areas. The second is surface flooding which is caused by heavy rainfall and can result in the overflow of drainage systems. Sewer flooding is another cause for concern. According to Anwar most of Karachi's storm drains are being used as sewers and get blocked when it is time for them to kick into action. The last cause is tidal flooding which will result from a storm surge.
"Focus areas have to be identified. There is still not a single flood plain map for Karachi which can then help turn into a risk zone map," said Anwar.
His report identifies the need to develop a process based framework for Karachi that identifies the impact of climate change and the people and assets involved. A vulnerability profile can be developed which then leads to a list of actions to "mitigate" climate change.
Experts said that Karachi's most vulnerable communities are poor communities, and the women and children within them. Settlements along low lying areas are especially vulnerable.
The experts said that because of 'climate migration', even more people migrate to cities. This was witnessed in the aftermath of the 2010 floods, when scores moved from disaster-hit districts in rural Sindh to Karachi. While this stretches the city's resources, it is these communities that will be the worst affected if a disaster strikes.
Karachi's urban machinery cannot handle the impact of natural disasters. Shehri General Secretary Amber Alibhai says, "The police have absolutely no training for handling natural disasters. I was sitting with an officer the other day and I asked if they have a protocol for dealing with disasters. The policeman said there is a simple answer, 'no no and no'."
Alibhai pointed out that there is still a lot of work to be done and a city like Karachi has to reach a certain level of preparedness before it can think about future risks. "In June of 2007 storms killed over 200 people. The problem is that Karachi's infrastructure doesn't even have the ability to withstand the existing risks."
Anwar believes that Karachi has to become an adaptive city. "The outcome of successful adaptation is resilience – and is a product of governments, civil society organisations, households and individuals with strong adaptive capacity."

Thanks! Sorry but when I typed it in I got this:
Type: Posts; User: Zanedog
Thanks! Sorry but when I typed it in I got this:
Doing the two songs per album style, it's really difficult, but at this moment I'd pick:
1. Jennifer Lost the War
2. Beheaded
3. Session
4. Dirty Magic
5. Bad Habit
6. Self Esteem
7. Gone Away...
Small Show, actually a very small show lol. I've been to alot of concerts (especially in Pittsburgh because that's where I live), but I've never seen an indoor place this small. It was really cool...
Ohh I think they did play Dividing by Zero. I just got the new album a couple days ago, so I'm not completely familiar with the songs yet but I'm pretty sure they played it. Ya Nitro was awesome!...
Just got back from it, amazing show and my first Offspring concert.
Wasn't an ignition show but in no particular order they played atleast:
All I Want
Want You Bad
Head Around You
Pretty Fly ...
That doesnt work, due to Dexter also being a name of a popular TV show. So thanks for the help!
I remember before that Dexter did little interview things about different songs and it was really interesting. Anyone know where I could find that on the website. Thank you so much!

Freeman Klopott of the Washington Examiner writes that D.C. Council Chairman Vincent Gray "is already stepping into the role of the city's chief executive." Gray "has taken the reins in the face of financial crisis as Mayor Adrian Fenty fades into the background of his lame-duck term." Klopott says that while "it's the mayor's job to introduce budget measures to the council," Fenty "appears to be punting to Gray," and he "has been silent on the budget shortfall, despite repeated attempts for comment."
Whether Fenty is sulking or just trying to be respectful of his likely successor and the verdict of the voters -- observers say it's more of the latter, with Fenty being uncharacteristically cordial -- it's clear his mind is no longer on the job of mayor. Yet still, the "Write In Fenty" movement continues.
Supporters were on the scene at the Crafty Bastards Arts and Crafts Fair in Adams Morgan this weekend, and someone is even paying for a citywide telephone poll about a Fenty write-in campaign. Those contacted say the survey calls lasted about 10 minutes and were quite detailed. The question is: Who's paying for the poll -- the cost of which is likely in the five figures -- and why?
Elsewhere in the DMV:
* With a $175 million deficit to fix, D.C. Councilmembers Michael Brown and Jim Graham "plan to roll out new versions of previous proposals to increase income taxes for residents in the highest tax brackets," the Examiner reports. Graham plans to reintroduce a tax hike bill that failed on a 7-5 vote in May, which would boost taxes on those earning $1 million or more per year. Brown wants a two-tiered hike on those earning $250,000 or more, and then $1 million or more.
Brown is not up for re-election this year, but Graham is. Though Graham won the Democratic primary in Ward 1 by a comfortable margin, he faces a libertarian-minded black Republican challenger, Marc Morgan, in November. Though Graham is favored to win, a tax hike could create an issue for Morgan.
Gray voted against the Graham bill in May, and the presumptive mayor-elect says he is not considering tax hikes yet. In her Examiner column, Jonetta Rose Barras says Gray should "target tax abatements and exemptions, even if it means fighting with the feds and his soon-to-be-former colleagues."
* Author Judith Warner weighs in on "Michelle Rhee's Revolution" in the New York Times Magazine, saying "the test-scores-driven, tenure-busting, results-rewarding sort of reform" she championed was defeated not just in D.C., but in other primaries across the U.S. in September. Parsing post-election commentary on D.C.'s "local blogs," Warner says, "A theme became clear: people -- even people who seemed destined to most benefit from the work of a committed reformer like Rhee -- don't like to get the message that their communities are on the wrong track." The Washington Post defends Rhee against charges of racism in an editorial.
* Even though she has expressed concerns about Dana Nerenberg having to split her time as principal between Hardy Middle School and Hyde-Addison Elementary, Ward 3 Councilmember Mary Cheh says ousted Hardy principal Patrick Pope should not be reinstated. Students and parents have called for Pope's return, but Cheh told the Georgetown Dish, "We need to have a fresh step forward. Going back would send the wrong signal."
* DCist's Dave Stroup talks with Ward 6 Councilmember and all-around nice guy Tommy Wells, who is the Council's most prodigious Twitter user. Wells said, "I first learned about Twitter through my niece who followed politicians as part of her internship duties at ABC News. I thought it was an easy way to communicate with the media. I started out Tweeting from closed Council meetings hoping news organizations would follow me." He says his interest "grew when I found I could keep up with what was happening in the city in real time by following local reporters and neighborhood bloggers."
* "If war is what Wargotz wants, war is what he'll get." That tongue-twister comes from Sen. Barbara Mikulski, who, true to form, is running fast and hard as if she were an underdog, not a prohibitive favorite. The Post says Mikulski leads her GOP opponent, Queen Anne's County Commissioner Eric Wargotz by 32 points among likely voters, and more than four out of five voters do not even know enough about Wargotz to express an opinion about him. Though some Democratic incumbents who were thought to be shoo-ins are facing tighter-than-expected races this year, it would take an overwhelming GOP tsunami for Wargotz to win this race.
* Baltimore Sun columnist Dan Rodricks says that even though the Tea Party backed his Republican primary opponent, Bob Ehrlich will need the movement's backing if he wants to close the gap against Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley. Rodricks says Ehrlich can probably only win if he "garners the support of all the various Maryland groups associated with the tea party and they come out in force on Nov. 2, while many Democrats, confident of Mr. O'Malley's victory, take the day off."
Meanwhile, the Post has the less-than-shocking news that Democrat O'Malley needs black voters to turn out in order to be re-elected. The Sun also looks at how the two candidates differ on transportation issues. And Ehrlich's running mate Mary Kane pulled out of a debate to be held 3 1/2 miles from her own house, Maryland Politics Watch reports. She instead attended a "Red Mass," a special service held by some Roman Catholic churches for political leaders and judges.
* The Examiner says the federal government has rejected Montgomery County's "plan to convert three high schools with predominantly poor, minority populations into magnet schools." While the county won't be getting the $3.3 million it requested, Fairfax County is anticipating a $21 million infusion from the feds, and, WTOP reports, "teachers are pressing the School Board to give them a raise instead of hiring new teachers" with the money.
* The Examiner takes a look at inverse white flight, as whites "are leaving the Maryland suburbs, while more are moving into D.C. and Northern Virginia's close-in communities." The "concentration of whites in D.C. rose to 39 percent in 2009 from 31 percent nine years earlier, for an increase of 56,000 people."
* ARLnow says Democratic Del. Adam Ebbin may seek the 30th District Senate seat in Virginia next year if incumbent Patsy Ticer retires as many expect.
* The GW Hatchet says a student-run coffee cart on H Street will be unable to reopen due to failure to obtain the proper city permits.
* The Georgetown Metropolitan observes that a project development sign outside the Hurt Home on R Street has been defaced to read, "Adrian Fenty, Ex-Mayor, Creating Economic Opportunities for fraternity brothers."
* It's nothing new for Unsuck D.C. Metro to report on a rider's complaint against Metro. What is surprising is when the rider actually wins. After all, these are the folks who didn't seem to care about a platform fire.
* Borf has a free art show at a Capitol Hill gallery. TBD's Maura Judkis says it's awful.

PENTICTON - A woman facing sentencing over a litany of conditional sentence and personation breaches and minor thefts may soon make legal history in Penticton.
Mae Lynnette Postel's sentencing led both counsel and Judge Gregory Koturbash to look into the possibility of diverting her case to a form of aboriginal justice known as a 'sentencing circle.'
If they are successful, it may be the first sentencing circle in the Okanagan, though they have been used in other parts of the province, including Kamloops.
Postel appeared by video in Penticton court Tues, June 16, on a host of charges stemming from an incident on Feb. 11, 2015, when she was caught speeding on Skaha Lake Road in Penticton. Postel, who was prohibited from driving at the time, used her sister's driver's license number and was issued a ticket in her sister's name.
Investigation revealed Postel's keyword failed to match her sister's license, and subsequent investigation revealed Postel's suspended driver's license.
It was also discovered Postel was on a conditional sentence, which meant she wasn't to be out of her home at that time of day, except to attend classes at the En'owkin Centre on the Penticton Indian Band reserve.
Police attended the centre, and found she hadn't attended class. Later that day they spotted her on the street and arrested her.
Crown Prosecutor Catherine Crockett asked Koturbash to consider sentencing Postel to jail for the rest of her conditional sentence — 79 days — noting her long history of personation charges and behaviour continued even while on a conditional sentence.
"My client is 29 years old. This is a perplexing situation," defence lawyer James Pennington said. "We thought things were going well, and suddenly we're met with this."
He described his client as healthy and not on drugs.
"She does well in jail. But we can't keep her in jail forever. She's an articulate person — if she can find the right road, she'll do well," he said.
Judge Koturbash noted Postel's 'horrendous' upbringing, describing her as the child of residential school survivors. He asked if she was interested in having a second Gladu report prepared, noting her case as having 'the systemic factors aboriginal people suffer from.'
Postel declined, saying nothing had greatly changed in her life to warrant another Gladue report.
Judge Koturbash then asked Postil if she was interested in going to aboriginal court and attending a 'sentencing circle,' to which she said yes.
"We're breaking some new ground," defence counsel James Pennington said later. "The judge has participated in a sentencing circle, I haven't and the prosecutor hasn't."
Sentencing circles were part of the aboriginal justice system and had come into practise as a way to accommodate the large per capita percentage of aboriginals who make up the prison population.
"I don't think we've had a sentencing circle in the Okanagan. There is an aboriginal court in New Westminster, but generally the circles are made up of members from the accused's community," Pennington said.
With both counsel agreeing to apply for a sentencing circle in Penticton, Postel's sentencing hearing was adjourned to gather more information and fix a date for further sentencing.

Sorry! We couldn't find any events matching your search for Preservation Hall Jazz Band IN Greenvale NY.
You might get better results by trying a different combination of words for that performer, show, or team. If you still don't find the event you're looking for, tickets for that event probably aren't available on TicketNetwork right now.

I don't get the point of all this; it will not change the minds of those that hate cyclists. I wonder how much money they are spending on this?
And if a cop sees you riding down the road slowing traffic he can still cite you. Unless the law has changed, has it?
Current law: http://www.delcode.delaware.gov/title21/c041/sc12/
§ 4196. Position on roadway.
(a) Any person operating a bicycle upon a roadway at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing shall ride as close as practicable to the right-hand edge of the roadway except under any of the following circumstances:
(1) When overtaking and passing another bicycle or vehicle proceeding in the same direction;
(2) When preparing for a left turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway;
(3) When proceeding straight in a right-turn-only lane; or
(4) When reasonably necessary to avoid conditions including, but not limited to fixed or moving objects, parked or moving vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, animals, surface hazards or substandard width lanes that make it unsafe to continue along the right-hand edge of roadway. For purposes of this section, a "substandard width lane" is a lane that is too narrow for a bicycle and a vehicle to travel safely side by side within the lane.
(b) Any person operating a bicycle upon a one-way highway with 2 or more marked traffic lanes and a posted speed limit of less than 30 miles per hour may ride as near the left-hand edge of such roadway as practicable.
(c) Persons riding bicycles upon a roadway shall not ride more than 2 abreast except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles. Persons riding 2 abreast shall not impede the normal and reasonable movement of traffic and, on a laned roadway, shall ride within a single lane.
(d) Any person operating a bicycle may ride upon a paved shoulder with due regard for any traffic control devices intended to regulate or guide traffic or pedestrians.
21 Del. C. 1953, § 4194; 54 Del. Laws, c. 160, § 1; 66 Del. Laws, c. 167, § 2; 78 Del. Laws, c. 206, §§ 1, 2.;
Thankfully that sort of aggressive squeeze play has never happened to me. The biggest problem I face is the #1 set of diagrams (full lane change to pass) while another car is obviously oncoming such that the other car has to slow WAY down or even pull over slightly because of the idiot passing me in the oncoming lane. Then the oncoming car usually honks their horn at ME.
Unless the state law specifically specifies otherwise by FDOT regulations any lane that is not at least 14-foot wide is "a lane that is too narrow for a bicycle and a vehicle to travel safely side by side within the lane".
At least where I am up here in MT lanes anywhere other then the Interstate Freeways that are 14-foot or wider are the extreme rarity. Thus making my state's FRAP law subject to this exception almost all the time (MT law lists same exception and does not define in state code exactly how wide that is).
So basically the exception to the law is the norm. Which the basic result is that the law being only in effect without the exception on such few rare roads with lanes that wide serves mainly as a way to harass cyclists and encourage motorists entitlement mindset and having people like me have to continually explain this fact over and over both out of an in court. I've was given a "failure to FRAP" tickets for riding in the right lane of a five lane, two lanes each direction, middle turning lane roadway that has absolutely no shoulder edges but rather sharp curb edge in-town with 25-speed limit while I was going 20+ on my bike in narrow lanes that were barely 8-foot wide and where I pointed out to the cop that the cruiser he was driving took up the entire lane width with its mirrors and that if I were to try to share the lane with him if he moved to the far left edge of the lane with his tires riding the dashed white line between the fast and slow lanes and his left mirror sticking into the fast lane I would have only slightly more then a foot of width between his right mirror and the curb edge for me and my bike to fit into and had a printout copy of the law in my back-pack and showed it to him and pointed out the exact wording and he still wrote me the ticket and I had to mess with the hassle of taking it into court and then when I put him on the stand and asked him about what I had shown him on the scene and how wide his cruiser was in the lane and how much room I would have he refused to answer the questions and took the fifth !!!
You need to actually read that law and consider each one of the possible exceptions very carefully and understand its full implication. By the time you are done it would surprise me very much if you didn't realize that the exceptions are the rule more often then the rule !!!
The folks opposed to FRAP laws are VERY opposed to them and have been for a long time. OTOH- I agree with others that it's much ado about nothing. I'd rather that we put effort into preventing passage of more "must use" laws relating to bicycle specific amenities.
I was stopped by cops twice in my lifetime over lane position. In one case, I explained my reasoning to the cop; pavement at the edge, and a double line on a short steep hill, and he immediately understood and agreed that it made sense. The other went to traffic court, where I explained that as I understood the law, as "captain of my ship" and it my decision about what was safe and "practicable". I explained my thinking, and the judge asked the cop how many cars were delayed behind me and for how long -- 2 cars for under a minute, convinced the judge that I was reasonable, case dismissed.
In many ways I'd like to see FRAP replaced with a clear shared use law where violations would be based on effect, similar to the laws some mountain states have whereby slow moving cars and trucks must create passing opportunities when they accumulate too long a train behind them.
However, seeing the conduct of militant cyclists, I'm concerned that easing of FRAP will only encourage bad "I have rights to the road, so tough" conduct, and in the long term make things worse than they are now.
Saw this on my FB feed yesterday, excellent article about how FRAP laws are nothing but discriminatory to cyclists and how the burden is placed on us to prove that not riding FRAP is in fact safer, which is different than pretty much every other traffic law in the books.
Snippet image:
Could you suggest better language for the law that covers all conceivable situations? If you got more specific it would be unreadable, unenforceable and even more useless. But please, jot down some proposed code for forum comment, it should be a lively discussion.
I agree with what you had to say there a great deal. I personally think that current FRAP laws with their exceptions and understood fully and properly are not by any means "asking too much" or an undo burden. Quite frankly on high speed roads I strongly prefer to get entirely out of the main traffic lanes and shoulder edge ride to the right of the white line. Problem is not all such roads have decent shoulder edges of sufficient width or pavement condition to be considered ride-able. Heck some roads have less then 6" of pavement to the right of the white line and then a sharp drop off into the ditch and the lane is just barely wide enough for cars much less car and bike side by side.
I also agree that the "mandatory cycle infrastructure use" laws are a serious problem. Most of the ones I've had to deal with are local ordinance and thankfully by MT state law the only local ordinance concerning bicycle traffic that is permissible is whether or not bicycles are allowed to use the sidewalk, they are always allowed to use the road. Some locals though aren't aware of this fact concerning MT state law that they aren't allowed to make those local ordinances. There is long term danger though that such a mandatory cycle path (or lane) use law could be put through at the state level. There has already been one try I know of that didn't make it out of committee for a law mandating side-path and side-walk use when available.
Basically as far as I have seen if you build bicycle infrastructure correctly people will want to use it, if you got a bunch of cyclists refusing to use it and you have to make a law requiring them to do so, that should tell you something about how bad of a job you did on that infrastructure.
As to the FRAP law itself. I say rewrite it to be clearer and worded the other way.
(1) Bicycles as road legal vehicles may use a full lane and are not strictly mandated to yield to faster vehicles overtaking from behind but rather faster overtaking vehicles shall perform any passing maneuver safely.
(2) However, when a bicycle rider is traveling at a speed both at least 25% less then the posted speed limit and less then other vehicle traffic. As road conditions periodically allow an opportunity for the bicycle rider to move to the side sufficiently to allow faster overtaking vehicles to pass safely while still continuing to safely and effectively travel themselves they shall do so out of common courtesy for other road users.
(3) Such periodic conditions may include but are not limited too:
----- (i) Where an abnormally wide lane width is available allowing sufficient width for both the bicycle and an overtaking motor vehicle to travel side-by-side within the lane with safe clearance of at least 3-feet between them.
----- (ii) Where a paved shoulder edge is available to the right of the white line that in the bicycle riders own judgment is of sufficient width and surface condition to be safely and effectively used by them as a travel surface.
(4) This provisions shall not be construed to mean that a bicycle rider is forbidden from making needful maneuvers safely as normal for any other vehicle or that they are required to marginalize their own safety or ability to effectively travel, only that they SHALL show this courtesy to other road users WITHOUT FAIL when the opportunity arises.
I would also suggest that for those people who decide to be a total @$$ just because they think they can get away with it and try to block up other vehicle traffic on their bikes for no good reason and would be in violation of that statutes wording that judges could get very creative with the repercussions. Like locking them in a room with only one single user bathroom with another person who always jumps into the bathroom and pretends to use it when they need it so they can't get in even though the other person doesn't actually have to do that and is just doing it to block them from using it and do that until they finally mess their pants because the have to go so bad.
It's one thing to "take the lane" when you need to do so or when your already moving just as fast, nearly as fast, or faster then the other vehicles. It's entirely different thing to do it when you don't have to and your just trying to tick other people off.
Probably would have problems in the real world with wording it like that but I think you all get the idea and most people with half a brain would as well after reading the law worded like that. Basically, you've got the right but when you can safely be nice to other people by getting over then for goodness sake DO SO and don't be an @$$ !!!
I kinda' like the wording found on page 105 of the current Tennessee Comprehensive Driving Manual (the state produced guidebook/study guide for passing the written portion of the DL test)
Lane Positions for Bicycles
Bicyclists are required to ride as far right in the lane as
possible only when a car and a bicycle, side by side, can safely
share the lane.
Even then, there are certain times when a
bicycle can take the full lane.
A bicyclist should be allowed full use of the
lane when:
• The rider is overtaking and passing
another vehicle going in the same
• If the lane is marked and signed for bicycle use only, drivers must
NEVER use this lane as a turning lane, passing lane
or for parking.
• There are unsafe conditions in the roadway, such as
parked cares, moving vehicles or machinery, fixed
obstacles, pedestrians, animals, potholes or debris.
• The lane is too narrow for both a care and a bicycle to
safely share the lane. In this case it is safest to let the
bicycle take the full lane.
The only problem I have with that kind of wording is the part about cars not using the bicycle lane as a turning lane. I strongly prefer cars to safely merge over to the right into the cycle lane or more commonly in my area the shoulder edge I'm using as a cycle lane and then make their turn. It helps prevent right hooks that result not so much from fault on the part of the motorists but rather from cyclists trying to pass right turning cars on the right. It's not just cars that some times need to be prevented from making stupid dangerous passes. Sometimes cyclists try to make stupid dangerous passes as well and the cure for both is the same. Namely "taking the lane" and just as a bike sometimes needs to take the lane to prevent cars from making unsafe passes (usually on the left) sometimes a car preparing for a right turn needs to "take the lane" with the bike lane to prevent cyclists from making unsafe passes on the right.
Pretty good effort Turbo, but that has the same problem of not clearly defined language as the original highly criticized actual regulation. That was my point. The interpretation of traffic regs are and always will be in the view of a police officer, and then subject to review and correction by a judge. terms such as when necessary (who decides), less than other vehicle traffic -all traffic, some, mean or median speed, averaging distance, so on. ITs a endless snakes den that can only be resolved by the pertinent LEO at the scene. There is no better way.
I quoted the portion out of the Driver's manual in its entirety and it does reflect the current state law on that issue.
However and oddly enough; I've noticed many instances were the actual implementation alludes to using the bike lane as turn lane (as you described). The left lane dividing line will cease to be a solid line and become hash lines just prior to a cross street. Which to me, indicates that it can be crossed. Here's a link to google street maps with one example that I pass every day
Point I was trying to make is that the proper way to write a FRAP law is to first clearly state that bicycle riders can take the lane when necessary and then state as the exception when they should edge ride in order to be respectful of other road users as well.
Current FRAP laws have it @$$ backwards and it shows in how they are interpreted and implemented. If "take the lane" is acknowledged by the law as normal and FRAP is the exception that is done when possible to be respectful of other road users it corrects the whole problem with the "guilty until you can prove you meet one of the exceptions" problem with the current FRAP laws.
Well, all I can say to all this is that I'm a happycamper WRT my cycling law here in Florida, which is much like Delaware. I don't get wrapped around the axle over the term "Share the Road". We have them (signs) all over the place down here.
I've been a commuter cyclist for over 25 years and I just don't see the problem with FRAP laws. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/...0316.2065.html
1. Motorists don't know or care about the exceptions
Motorists believe FRAP includes sidewalks
2. Many police don't know the exceptions
3. Most DelDOT planners don't believe the exceptions
(They've told me motorists don't have to yield to bicyclists)
4. In local bike lanes, DelDOT routes right turning motorists to the left of bicyclists going straight
(Bicyclists should be FRAP; it's not a coffin corner since bicyclists must stop & yield to turning motorists)
5. New bike lanes may be marked 18 - 30 inches from curb if DelDOT needs wider lanes
(Yes, These are marked bike lanes)
Other than these, no problems with FRAP. Cyclists I know that have been cited have had citations overturned on appeal (JP court judges don't believe exceptions either), so police don't see the bicyclist's legal bills as a problem.
I agree that changing FRAP laws is not a battle I would choose right now. Once any changes are proposed, other changes are often introduced in the process that are as bad as the problem being fixed. I do think FRAP is a problem (it is enforced determining fault in collisions- it's not "nothing") but it's not one we can fix at this time.
I agree with fighting any mandatory use laws; I'd also support educating law enforcement. Fortunately, no specific state laws exist or are proposed in DE. DelDOT says bike lanes are mandatory when riding at less than speed of traffic etc. and quotes normal FRAP law independent of facilities, so presumably legal exceptions apply to facilities too. (There is no mention of bicycle facilities in the DE state code that I can find).
I'm not clear on mandatory use for the bike lanes to the right of RTOL lanes I've seen (not unusual here); from experience I think it will depend on any individual officers involved. Some officers I've spoken to understand exceptions to FRAP, others deny any exceptions exist
YMMV will vary with city laws and city police - some towns have bicycle specific restrictions that contradict state law. Again, enforcement will vary by individual officer.
The problem I have with the term "militant" is that the local advocacy groups consider any bicyclist that doesn't like door zone bike lanes or bike lanes to the right of RTOL onto Interstates "militant". I just want to ride without getting doored or right hooked, even at ramps on to I-95 or I-76 (in PA). I find it sad that this is considered militant and offensive to bicyclists (and suspect this may not be what you mean by "militant").
Every lane is a bike lane.
From the link I posted:
Google maps link here: https://www.google.com/maps?ll=48.20...02642&t=h&z=19
The narrow shoulder/gutter area to the right of the white line is officially marked as a bicycle lane and is routed to the right of the right hand turn lane. It is indeed "screwed up" and when I ride that street (not very often) I take a line where I ride in the extreme left part of the right hand turn lane when going straight through and if I'm turning right there I "take the lane" in the right hand turn lane. Right hand turn traffic will try to run you down on that corner if you stay in the bike lane even when your turning right as well because your turning into a narrow road with no bike lane so you will get squeezed off the road to the right at best and non-best case scenario they cut the corner tight like they are NASCAR and run you down right on the corner.
The gutter bike lanes on that street (both sides) are very much bad bike lanes that are designed to marginalize cyclists and "get them the hell out of the road and preferably the hell out of the sight of motorists" rather then to provide them a better safer alternative (which pretty much seems to be the dominant political position in that town much to my annoyance including the cops in that town which I've had more then one run in with). I will use the one on the north bound side at my own discretion taking a proper line across that right turn spot and taking the lane several times at several other right hand turn spots to prevent right hooks and only religiously stay in that bike lane while climbing the big hill on the very north end of that road because it slows me down so much. On the south bound side, I take the lane period, no exceptions. Where it's only one lane its downhill and I'm going the 30-mph speed limit or more and after 3-Mile Drive swoops in at the bottom of the hill and it goes to two lanes south bound then I take the lane in the slow lane. Especially since everyone sticks their garbage cans out for collection in the bike lane on that side of the road so you have to constantly jump in and out of it even if you wanted to use that narrow trashy storm grate littered gutter bike lane on that side.
The correct way to set-up the bike lanes on that road would have been to not have any bike lane on the south bound side and move all the lines on the road over that 2-feet or so and add that width to the bike lane on the other side where there is only one lane north bound the whole way and it goes up that steep hill to make a nice 3-4 foot wide bike line not including the gutter width to the right of it with all the storm grates and junk in it and then properly route the bike lane to the left of the right hand turn lane that goes into Wyoming St. and put up caution signs warning motorists to yield to cyclists in the bike lane when making right hand turns on the other streets and private drive-way parking lot entrances where there is no right hand turn lane under penalty of felony vehicular assault prosecution if they fail to do so.
The only bike lane infrastructure I know of in that town (Kalispell, MT) that they correctly routed to the left of the right hand turn lane is the intersection of US-93 S. and 18th St. E. on the south end of the main city center of that town and the only reason I think that was done correctly is because its a major national highway and it wasn't under the city's control how it was done. Every other piece of bicycle infrastructure with the exception of the Great Northern Rail Trail between Kalispell, MT and Kila, MT is "screwed up" and I believe deliberately so in that city. They also have a very much "get off the road", "get on the sidewalk (even when there isn't a side-walk)", "every time a car hits a bike its the bikes fault for being in the way" culture in their city police department.
Slime of the earth.
2 Attachment(s)
Some intersections have Right Turn Yield to Bicycles, but many (most?) do not. Even at many of those that do, the Yield to Bikes sign is hidden until the drivers are right at the sign and the turn (see 1st photo above).
Many of these combined straight/right turn lanes (Marsh Road, Philadelphia Pike) used to be RTOL lanes at major intersections (Silverside Road, Governor Printz Blvd).
I don't see how adding the bike lane can reduce the number of drivers turning right (high enough to justify previous RTOL lane), so the idea of going straight to the right of the right turn arrow makes me far more uncomfortable than riding in the lane ever did.
Considering that the right turn lanes in question are not "right turn ONLY" but are either straight through or right turn that actually isn't too bad. When the straight through bike lane is to the right of a "right turn ONLY" lane that is what is really, really, really a stupid design.
Although I did note that it appears in the distance that this bike lane becomes a door zone bike lane further up the road (white car parked to the right of the bike lane, or is that a right turn ONLY lane that car is moving in further up the road?). Door zone bike lanes are 100% unacceptable to me in every way, as are straight through bike lanes to the right of right turn ONLY main traffic lanes. That isn't a right turn ONLY lane though so although I would not call it ideal I don't consider that unacceptable.
If it were me designing that road I would just put in three "half lanes" in place of both the bike lane and the right main traffic lane with dashed lanes in-between them with signs saying "Bikes use a half-lane, Cars straddle two half lanes." and mark the right half lane as right turn only, the left half lane as straight through only, and the middle half lane as straight through or right turn. Car wishing to take right turn thus is directed to straddle the two right most half lanes leaving the left straight through half lane open for straight through cyclists if they wish to pass the right turning car and also directs cyclists not turning right but going straight through not to use the right most lane and put themselves in position to be right-hooked.

Thanks For the list and never use myMenuify
the guide says never downgrade the system menu on newer wiis.i am softmodding a new black wii,dose this mean i skip the downgrading part of the softmod anywii guide.i know it is optional but this guide says dont do it with new wiis and the softmod any wii guide says to do it.can some one advise me please.thanks.
It's your choice really. You can downgrade to 4.1 without any problem. We just tell members not to downgrade, because if you downgrade to below a certain system menu (don't know which), it would brick. 4.1 is fine though,
Really good post.
ive been hearing discussions about mod wii being played online.
my question is:
if i play my mod wii online with a downloaded game, will nintendo find out?
will they brick my wii, ban it, or what happens?
and how will they find out?
these quesions may seem easy to answer but the discussion of mod wii are confusing since they say different things.
thanks for info. i really appreciate it.
Thanks for the tip just got my Wii today gona keep this paged bookmark to look back to while i read about tutorials on flashing my wii think that the right term for it
Another easy way to brick a wii? I heard a lot about a program called PimpMyWii? Sounded pretty infamous by the end of it....

Thought I would share some quilts I made for the Special Needs Classroom at my local elementary school. My husband volunteers there in a classroom three mornings a week and had a chance to visit the Special Needs classroom last year. He came home telling me that they really needed some new quilts! I insisted he ask them if they would allow me to make a few quilts for them, and they were thrilled (they gave me a size they preferred).
So if you are looking for a place close to home that would appreciate a good quilt, you could ask your local elementary school!

Work is now well under way on the inside of £500m JLR engine plant
Work on the first phase of Jaguar Land Rover's £500 million engine manufacturing plant on the outskirts of Wolverhampton has moved to the interior of the giant buildings.
Birmingham-based Interserve Construction has completed the steel-frame structure and cladding of the first 753,500 sq ft of units.
This week workers have begun laying the concrete floors in readiness for the fitting out of the manufacturing area and installation of machinery.
JLR expects the first engines to roll off the production line in 2015.
It announced earlier this year that it planned to begin work on the second phase, which will increase numbers to be employed at the site to about 1,400 and the size of the plant to over a million sq ft.
The booming car company will make a new generation of lightweight, four-cylinder, low emission diesel and petrol engines at its new site.
JLR has already taken on its first apprentices, who will work at the site, and has begun advertising for engineers.
It is expected that the first JLR staff will begin work at the new complex in the next few weeks on the initial stages of preparing the engine manufacturing centre to begin production.

Trends in real estate private equity
Real estate capital markets
In facing tighter lending constraints from the banks, international investors are finding it challenging to match targeted returns.
The distressed markets in Europe and the United States have seen a number of trades but are still below desired volume.
The biggest issue yet to be resolved in the real estate capital markets is lack of liquidity in the debt markets. In Europe, some large banks have taken steps to exit international real estate lending altogether.
When factored in with the many others that have been winding down their portfolios or have stopped lending in the international real estate markets, the availability of bank financing is extremely limited.
What strategy (ies) in 2013 will be the most lucrative for deploying capital in 2013 (choose all that apply)?
Source: Ernst & Young LLP
Two-tier market
Across North America and particularly in Europe, the story remains a tale of the haves and have nots. The gateway cities, including New York, Washington D.C., San Francisco, London and Paris are active real estate markets with a large amount of interested institutional capital.
Distress, distress, distress
The distressed markets in Europe and the United States have seen a number of trades but are still below desired volume. There will still be opportunities for distressed funds on the horizon, however. While most of the major US banks have worked through their heavy risk exposure, having been relatively successful at restructuring loans and a few managing to refinance at par, regional and local banks are still facing difficulty working out construction and development loans on their books.
Also, in Europe, most banks still cannot afford to take losses on their books in spite of their intent to exit international real estate markets. Continued market volatility has further delayed their ability to begin working through their portfolios.
Opportunities in the debt markets
It is not all a bleak picture. Lack of liquidity from the banks has made room for nontraditional lenders and insurance companies in the senior loan market. While insurance companies have a history as long-term lenders in the US, they are increasingly emerging as an alternative to bank lending in Europe as well. Naturally, they are more risk-averse, extending loans for the highest-quality assets and only within the 50%–65% loan-to-value range.
Ongoing challenges
Fund-raising will continue to pose a challenge for first-time funds. Outside of the large, global US-based funds that continue to see commitments from sovereign wealth funds and major institutional investors worldwide, investors are still hesitant to participate in commingled funds. In the near term, investment managers will likely continue the trend of the last 18 months of working individually with investors on one-off deals.
What are the key challenges you are seeing from limited partners (LPs) to get into a first close (choose all that apply)?

Glance Back
(From The Washington Evening Journal, Friday, Aug. 20, 2004)
Washington County is in no hurry to demolish what Friends of the Bunker Mill Bridge believe is an historic structure in Richmond, and Tuesday the county supervisors gave the group another 90 days to come up with a plan to save the 117-year-old bridge on the English River.
Assistant Superintendent Julie Grotewald told the board last night that Washington students had exceeded national and state standards on ACT tests for 2003-2004 in every area but math.
KALONA — In a move to stay within budget and also to continue employee health insurance benefits, the Kalona City Council, Monday evening, approved a move that will see the city paying $400 of a $1,000 deductible for a single employee and $488 of a $2,000 deductible for a family.
City officials had more excitement before last evening's meeting than they had during the meeting because of the heavy rainfall that hit the city of Washington prior to the start of the meeting. Several council members and city employees were poised at two entrances to city hall, watching the rain come down. The rain did let up slightly and the council meeting began on time.
DES MOINES — Holly Stephens, 17, of Ainsworth has advanced to the semi-final round of the Bill Riley State Fair Talent Search at the Iowa State Fair, Des Moines. She will present a lyrical ballet performance on Aug. 20.
Unseasonably cool weather continues to hamper Iowa farmers, but the weekly crop report shows 98 percent of the corn and 96 percent of the soybeans are in good to excellent condition.
Temperatures averaged from 2 degrees to 8 degrees below normal across the state last week.
DES MOINES — Nate Basinger, Washington, has advanced to the semi-final round of the Bill Riley Talent Search at the Iowa State Fair, Des Mines. He will present a piano/vocal performance Aug. 19.
The "Hills Rocket," a passenger train carrying three coaches and two domed lounges, will make five round trips each day, Aug. 25 and 26 over the former Rock Island branch line between Iowa City and Hills. The trips are sponsored by the Iowa Association of Railroad Passengers.
Fred and Cecile Kephart, 86 and 83 respectively, traveled to Des Moines earlier this week to be on hand for opening ceremonies of their 66th consecutive state fair. They attended their first state exposition before they were married, when they accompanied Cecile's parents in a Chalmers model car for what was then a four-hour trip to the capital.
The COMAS Trinidad Steel Drum Band will perform a concert of calypso, jazz, classical, reggae and black popular music at the Washington Community Center, Aug. 23. The band will perform under the watchful eye of renowned director Cliff Alexis, a native of Trinidad where the steel drum is the national instrument.
Washington/s National Guard unit, the 134th Medical Company, will be taking part in a landmark environmental project in cooperation with the Iowa Department of Environmental Quality and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). An agreement provides for the use of National Guard personnel and resources to collect an estimated 588 water samples from the tributaries flowing into 15 Iowa lakes designated for the yearlong project.
Sister Marie Vittetoe, daughter of Marcella Vittetoe of Washington and the late Edward Vittetoe, is one of seven Sisters of Humility who will celebrate the silver jubilee of their profession, Aug. 15, at Ottumwa Heights College in Ottumwa.
Since Tuesday's report, $7,000 has been pledged to the Area Community Center to be built on the Washington County Fairgrounds. The original gift of $500,000 is dependent on the community raising an additional $200,000 by public subscription. Of that, $115,000 has now been pledged.
