Snow Hunters, Paul Yoon's first novel, comes out today from Simon & Schuster, and it's pretty perfect. It's a late summer release that's getting buzz for a reason — Yoon's short, delicate sentences reveal the isolated life of a North Korean captured by Americans in the Korean War who tries to start anew after he's released.
Yohan is the POW, and he moves to Brazil after the war to work for a Japanese tailor, Kiyoshi. Yoon, who graduated from Wesleyan in 2002, mused on Tumblr that Yohan's story is a natural progression from his acclaimed story collection Once the Shore, which was released in 2009: "If my story collection was a kind of beginning — a jumping off point — then for my next project I was in search of a place to go from there, literally. Another destination. I chose Brazil. And so Snow Hunters can be viewed as a kind of bridge that connects two very different places."
In Brazil, Yohan attempts to leave his war experiences in the past. He eventually learns Portuguese and connects with the other people in town — Kiyoshi, and Peixe, a groundskeeper at the local church, and Bia and Santi, two orphaned homeless kids. He doesn't find love, necessarily, but quiet comfort. Here, Yoon describes the way in which Yohan and Kiyoshi come to know each other:
Though they were together often, [Kiyoshi] shared little with Yohan. And he himself did not tell the tailor about his own years. And yet he found comfort in this absence of telling. He learned about the tailor by what the old man pointed to, what his eyes fell on; by what he ate and how; by his knowledge of fabrics and by the way he avoided certain pedestrians and grinned at others. From their reticence grew a kind of intimacy.
Yoon not only illustrates intimacy on the page, but creates it between the reader and Yohan. By the end of Yoon's relatively brief novel, Yohan becomes real — a character you won't soon forget.
Snow Hunters is available today, August 6, from Simon & Schuster.

Bob Bergen's Views On Celebrity Voice Overs
Hi all! Many of you have forwarded me that article in the LA Times regarding how much VO work has gone to celebrities. For those who didn't see it I'm posting the link at the bottom of the article.
This trend in celebrity VO is indeed true, and can be frustrating to those of us who are trained, have great track records, and rely on VO for our livelihood. However, I choose to look at the glass half full!
Let me elaborate: -When I got into the business 30 years ago, there were 3 networks. Today, there are 500 plus cable networks, all needing promo voices, narration, and commercials. -When I got into the business there were only Saturday morning cartoons, occupying 3-5 hours of programming per network/per week. Today, there are complete networks/channels devoted to animation. From Disney Channel, to Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, etc. - Home studios were for the wealthiest and most successful voice actors 30 years ago. Today, for under $500 you have a broadcast quality home studio. And, you can travel with your studio enabling you to keep working/auditioning. -30 years ago Disney released an animated feature every 5-7 years. Today, every major animation studio has a thriving animation department, releasing dozens of animated features a year.
Since the 90s I've been fortunate to have worked on almost every Disney/Pixar feature, as well as features for Sony, FOX, Dreamworks, etc. Never the lead, but as a utility player able to provide a variety of characters and voices that celebs cannot do. Would I like to play the lead? My ego says yes. But the guy who loves what he does is creatively fulfilled. And, the residuals are splendid! So, should I be worried about celebrities taking vo gigs? For me, it's a waste of time worrying about what I cannot control. Which leaves me a slew of time being positive and proactive as I pursue all that IS available to me. There have never been more opportunities for voice actors than today.
Now, the REAL threat is the fact that many pros estimate that 40% of what was union vo work 30 years ago is now non union. The bright side of that, at least in animation, IS (or is it are??) celebrities. Since animation uses celebs so often, animation is relatively safe from the erosion of non union.

We recently met up with Ben and Lisa for their engagement session in north Phoenix. We really enjoyed photographing them and their love for one another. As we drove away from their session, Andrew commented on how fresh their love was and I totally agree. It was infectious. They are so sweet together and Lisa's giggles are adorable! We can't wait to photograph their wedding this summer.
I also loved this location despite the warning for snakes, which I'll have to learn to ignore. It turns out that I am way more terrified of snakes with a camera in my hand than I am while hiking or camping. I think it's because I can't really focus on the surroundings or maybe it's because there was an actual sign with a warning! Anyway…
Here are a few of our favorite images from their session. You can see a few of them on our facebook page as well!
We met up with Casey & Kayla (and their babies) for their engagement session at the base of South Mountain. This is one of our favorite places for portrait sessions because it's quiet, unique and kind of a secret (we have never seen another photographer in this spot)! When Casey & Kayla started to describe their personality as a couple (yes, it totally exists), I thought it would be perfect.
This gorgeous couple will have a beautiful wedding at Superstition Manor later this Spring. We can't wait for that day, but for now, here are some of our favorite images from their session!

Democrats to Bill Clinton: Put a sock in it!
Like lovers scorned, Bill Clinton's longtime liberal supporters are walking out on him, slamming the door behind them and rebuking the 42nd president for his behavior leading up to last weekend's South Carolina primary.
Clinton's base seems to be eroding fast as liberal Democratic stalwarts join up with Barack Obama, whose message of change seems now to apply not only to the Bush Administration of the last seven years, but the eight-year Clinton Administration that preceded it.
Obama's biggest "get†was Sen. Ted Kennedy, who abandoned his neutrality in the presidential race and endorsed Obama over Hillary Clinton on Monday. While Obama insists the Massachusetts senator's endorsement was not a repudiation of anyone, it was clear that Kennedy – along with his niece Caroline Kennedy and son Rep. Patrick Kennedy — had reached beyond the Clintons to pass the mantle of the Democratic party's liberal wing to Obama.
And while the Kennedys may open the floodgates, they were hardly the first liberals to abandon the Clintons for Obama. In recent weeks the Clintons have watched many of their supporters drift to the young senator from Illinois.
Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, the Democrats' 2004 presidential candidate, endorsed Obama recently. On Tuesday, Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius climbed aboard, the morning after she delivered the Democrats' rebuttal speech to President Bush's State of the Union address.
Even novelist Toni Morrison, who once called Bill Clinton the "first black president,†has come out for Obama.
Liberal criticism of the Clintons has come from inside and outside the Beltway, from former supporters and colleagues. It ranges from the thinly veiled to the blatant:
Yours truly predicted this backlash and sometime prior to the Iowa Caucuses I made mention this could happen as a result of Hillary's tactics. She and Bill really have been saying anything and everything to get her elected. Now the response from various former supporters of the Clinton Machine:
Robert Reich, former Clinton labor secretary, on his personal blog: "Bill Clinton's ill-tempered and ill-founded attacks on Barack Obama are doing no credit to the former President, his legacy, or his wife's campaign. Nor are they helping the Democratic party … Now, sadly, we're witnessing a smear campaign against Obama that employs some of the worst aspects of the old politics.â€
Leahy: "He is not helping anyone, and certainly not helping the Democratic Party.†(The Washington Post)
Columnist Nicholas von Hoffman: "By the time Hillary and Bill have finished with Obama the real man may be unrecognizable to voters in Iowa or any place else … If he can wipe enough of the Clintonian slime off himself, Obama may be able to come out from under and explain to the world that sometimes less experience is more and better.†(The Nation)
Columnist/Editor Jonathan Chait: "Am I starting to sound like a Clinton hater? It's a scary thought. Of course, to conservatives, it's a delicious thought. The Wall Street Journal published a gloating editorial noting that liberals had suddenly learned "what everyone else already knows about the Clintons.†(By "everyone,†it means Republicans.) It made me wonder: Were the conservatives right about Bill Clinton all along?†(The Los Angeles Times).
Columnist Maureen Dowd: "It's odd that the first woman with a shot at becoming president is so openly dependent on her husband to drag her over the finish line. She handed over South Carolina to him, knowing that her support here is largely derivative.†(The New York Times)
E.J. Dionne Jr.: "That's why the Clintons' assault on Obama is so depressing. In many ways, Obama is running the 2008 version of the 1992 Clinton campaign. You have the feeling that if Bill Clinton did not have another candidate in this contest, he'd be advising Obama and cheering him on.†(The Washington Post)
Al Sharpton: "But I think that it's time for him to just be quiet. I think it's time for him to stop. As one of the most outspoken people in America, there is a time to shut up, and I think that time has come.†(On The View)
Kerry: "I think you had an abuse of the truth … I mean, being an ex-president does not give you license to abuse the truth, and I think that over the last few days it's been over the top.†(On National Journal radio)
Daschle: "… this backbiting, bitter give-and-take that we're beginning to see more and more of, especially from the Clinton campaign. It's wrong. Everybody know it's wrong and it's got to stop … It's not presidential. It's not in keeping with the image of a former president.â€
I actually got a laugh out of Al Sharpton's remark. However it's what many people have been saying for a while and I suppose it's mostly true of the statement that it's been originally from the direction of republicans, but nonetheless proving to have been an accurate assessment as now you see it coming from the staunchest Democrats and supporters.
Shaun Omac and I had a conversation about this very situation on his show in which he was interviewing me and I again reiterated this very same assessment right after the South Carolina debate. It's getting to be undeniable that Hillary is in some serious trouble. No one candidate can acquire the necessary amount of votes to secure the nomination and with this kind of rumbling in the Democratic National Party, I ask again, how can she be expected to receive the backing of the DNC when they decide who to choose? Hillary could very possibly be done. If the negative momentum continues, I might can say the same for Bill. Divorce anyone?
(Disclaimer: my views,opinions, jokes and wisecracks do not reflect that of Shaun Omac or his radio show.)
P.S. I don't think anyone really cares who Uncle Alkie er I mean Ted Kennedy supports. Drink another one Ted.

If you like food, comedies, and big stars like Robert Downey, Jr., Sofia Vergara and Scarlett Johansson, then Jon Favreau's new film, "Chef," should be on your must-watch list. The movie follows Chef Carl Casper, played by Favreau, as he dramatically parts ways with a trendy Los Angeles restaurant and starts serving Cubanos from his own food truck, El Jefe. While "Chef" is superbly witty and has plenty of mouthwatering food shots, there are also insightful takeaways about the restaurant industry from the film. Fair warning—spoilers are ahead.
Here are six lessons restaurant owners can learn from "Chef":
1. Don't get stuck in a rut
In the film's beginning, Chef Casper desperately wants to update the menu at the restaurant where he manages the kitchen,but the owner, Riva (played by Dustin Hoffman), refused to change anything. Even though the restaurant still attracted diners, it hurt the business in the long run when a powerful food critic bashed them for their uninspired dishes.
By offering the same menu items for years, never taking an assessment of your business, not addressing customer feedback or not updating your decor, you may seem dated and lose business from bored customers, and possibly fail to attract new ones.
2. Serve your passion, not just what sells
When the food critic visited the restaurant in the beginning of the film, he observed that Chef Casper has lost the spark he had when the critic gave the chef a positive review in the past. Diners can tell the difference between a business that actually cares about what they're selling and one that only wants to make a profit. When Chef Casper started selling the expertly-crafted Cuban food he loved on the El Jefe food truck, though, his business boomed.
Restaurant owners can't blindly lead the kitchen, but need to find their chef's passion and see how that passion can benefit the restaurant's mission.
3. Admit when something new didn't work
Riva rejected Chef Casper's new ideas because of past failures of his more innovative dishes, namely the sweetbreads. Although Chef Casper kept pushing to serve more creative dishes, he needed to take a step back and learn from his mistakes to discover what his diners actually wanted.
Even if you're passionate about the changes you make in your restaurant, you need to continually assess whether the new ideas are working, need to be tweaked or should be scrapped.
4. Respond to criticism with kindness
The pivotal moment in "Chef" is when Chef Casper blew up at the food critic, both via Twitter and in person, over a negative review. While the chef's expletive-filled reaction to the criticism was inappropriate, Chef Casper had one right move when he asked the critic to come back and try the food he really wanted to serve. Owner Riva made a big mistake when he squashed Chef Casper's redemption plan, because one great way of responding to a diner's bad experience is to apologize and invite them back to the restaurant for another shot.
Don't react emotionally, especially in today's digitally connected world. But do remember to respond and take responsibility for your guests' experiences.
5. Use social media to your advantage
While "Chef" made social media marketing seem so easy even a kid could do it, there was a precise strategy Chef Casper's son, Percy, used to promote the El Jefe food truck. He showed their everyday life to give the business personality, let followers know about events and appearances, used a combination of social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Vine) and interacted with their fans by responding or posting photos of/with them.
Restaurant owners should use social media to create a community of their diners that will expand the network to new customers, but also maintain a professional image.
6. Make industry connections for new opportunities
Chef Casper turned his post-Riva life into a successful career by using his connections: his ex-wife's ex-husband gave him the food truck, his former line cook at the restaurant became El Jefe's second in command, and his greatest enemy, the food critic, became the financial backer for his brick-and-mortar El Jefe.
You never know who will walk into your restaurant or into your life with a way to open a door for your business into an even more profitable future. By making the right connections in the restaurant industry (like with Rewards Network), your business will benefit from future possibilities for growth and development.

The independent record business of the early 1950s was as crazy as the music was wonderful, and CMT's new series Sun Records captures that spirit.
Sun Records, which launches Thursday at 10 p.m. ET, began as a television adaptation of the Broadway hit Million Dollar Quartet and expanded into an eight-episode series focusing more on the larger story of this amazingly influential label and its founder, Sam Phillips (Chad Michael Murray, Agent Carter, below).
That was a good decision. Million Dollar Quartet was (and in road companies still is) a fun jukebox musical, but there's so much more to the Sun story than a round robin songfest with four of its most famous artists.
How far Sun Records can dig into that story isn't wholly clear. Based on the first couple of episodes, it isn't afraid to spend time in critical and somewhat obscure areas.
It also enlivens the drama with sharply drawn non-musical characters. Johnny Cash's father Ray (J. Thomas Bailey) comes off as a cold racist, and we quickly dive into the affair between Phillips and his assistant Marion Keisker (Margaret Anne Florence), who seems flirtier here than most accounts suggest she was in real life.
The music itself, contemporary remakes of the blues, pop, gospel, country, and rock 'n' roll tunes that infused the Sun story, rarely captures the electricity of the originals.
Still, the songs generally convey what Sun was about, and how Phillips understood and helped shape the chaotic music revolution of those years.
To vastly oversimplify, the big bands and popular crooning were being supplanted by a younger sound, primarily what we'd call blues, rhythm and blues and rockabilly, that would merge with pop and gospel to create the broad hybrid of rock 'n' roll.
The first episode focuses on Johnny Cash (Kevin Fonteyne, top, far left), who came up on the country side; Elvis Presley (Drake Milligan, top, center), whose musical taste ran from Dean Martin to black gospel choirs; and Phillips, who heard these new sounds in his head and was desperately trying to figure out how he could harness them and turn it into a living.
He began by finding black Southern singers like one-man band Joe Hill Louis and making recordings he sold to rhythm and blues labels. He also worked with Ike Turner (Kerry Holiday, top, second from left), who hustled as hard as Phillips himself in the music biz.
We get quick biographies of the early Sun artists, sufficient to illustrate the range of backgrounds from which they came and the personalities they brought to the game.
We meet Jerry Lee Lewis (Christian Lees, top, far right), who came in a later wave, at the same time we meet his cousin Jimmy Swaggart (Jonah Lees, Christian's twin brother). The way the paths of those two men soon diverged is way too intriguing a story for Sun Records not to explore.
To its credit, the show dives early into the racial divide of the early 1950s South. Beyond Ray Cash's violent response to a black family living in his neighborhood, the parents of a girl Elvis is dating tell her she must break it off after they see Elvis talking with parishioners outside a black church.
There's little doubt scenes like that are true to the culture of the times. Their dramatizations can feel stilted, as it does when we see Elvis tiptoe up to the black church, very tentatively make his way inside and sit in the back row, where two "church ladies" are surprised and welcoming.
The scene makes a valid and critical point, about Elvis, music, and the congregation. Purely as drama, it feels a little too neatly packaged.
We get more depth and nuance with the racial component of Phillips and his music. While he became most famous and successful for the white artists he recorded – Elvis, Cash, Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison – the first several dozen releases on Sun were by black artists. His talent scouting involved almost exclusively black performers.
That's a critical foundation of the Sun and Phillips stories. What he was hearing wasn't white kids playing black music. It was music that could get everyone's fingers popping and feet dancing.
Not to romanticize Phillips too much, because he was hardly without sin, he heard color-blind music at a time when so many of his fellow citizens still saw color first.
Sun Records at times recounts history literally enough to feel like docudrama. At other times it's an imagining of what could have happened with this fascinating mix of imperfect and marvelously skilled people.
Collectively, it tells us something important about a pivotal time for America, America's vision of itself, American popular culture, and American music.

Worthwhile wool: Windsor couple plans to make alpaca fleece clothing
November 4, 2004
Windsor's Kevin and Janet Tapply have an affinity for exotic animals.
First they fell into the racing pigeon business by buying a home that some pigeons called home. Then they invested in alpacas, animals that belong to the same family as llamas but are about half the size.
"I don't know why the exotic stuff," Janet said. "With the homing pigeons there were some that came with the house and the kids were like, 'Can we keep the birds?' "
The Tapplys kept the birds — in fact, a couple hundred of them — for nearly 15 years. They raced the pigeons in competitions around the Dallas-Fort Worth area. But when they moved outside of Decatur, Texas, they sold the birds and got into alpacas. The alpaca industry started with a few thousand alpacas imported from South America in the mid-1980s and is gaining popularity in the United States.
"It was a matter of finding something that we could put on our land and not kill," she said. "I wanted something we could have out there and enjoy. We spent a good year just going to seminars and learning about them."
This past January, Kevin accepted at job at Motorola in Boulder, forcing the Tapplys to move their herd to Colorado. Although Kevin works in Boulder, they relocated in northern Colorado because of the available farming land.

"Colorado is a very well-established alpaca breeding center," Kevin said. "In Texas we were breaking new ground everywhere we went with alpacas. We had to find the right place for our animals."
Windsor turned out to be that place.
The Tapplys brought Fossil Ridge Alpacas, their 36-count herd, to a new 10-acre lot in Windsor. Their farm name took the road with the Tapplys because they'd become well-known in alpaca circles and didn't want to lose ground.
The industry, although growing, is still relatively small. In Colorado, there are about 300 farms and the industry isn't lucrative initially. Alpacas cost between $250 to a half a million dollars, depending on lineage.
The Tapplys estimate their herd to be worth about $150,000. They planned to invest for the first three years of their business, which started in 2002, but they are going to start pushing to sell some of their stock next year.
"We've been investing pretty heavily, so we have to start thinking about selling," Janet said.
The Tapplys have 12 alpacas listed for sale on alpacanation.com, the biggest network of alpaca farms in the U.S. and Canada. Kevin said although only 12 are listed, all of the animals are for sale.
Janet, who is the alpacas' main caretaker, huffs at the prospect of selling her favorites. But she reluctantly agrees that the animals are a business.
"Some of them are my favorites, and I don't want to sell them," she said. "Like Little Bit. She's not one I want to get rid of. But now that she's pregnant she's not really the PR animal that she was because their hormones change."
Kevin, who works during the day, handles the business side of their farm. Janet feeds and cares for the herd, keeping a close eye on the expecting mothers. When she can, she practices on the spinning wheel that her husband gave her last Christmas.
The wheel turns thick strands of alpaca fleece into yarn, which can then be sold or turned into sweaters or other alpaca clothing. The Tapplys sell a few alpaca clothing pieces out of their home, but would like to expand to a full store in Windsor. The store would be filled with alpaca clothing made by Janet, produced with only their own alpaca fleece.
"I would think in like five or 10 years we would hope to grow into a storefront," she said. "I'm also hoping to get a knitting machine this year so I can do my own product for my own animals."
For now the Tapplys are focusing on selling and breeding their stock. They've only sold one of their alpacas, but they said they haven't been focused on selling their animals. Kevin said they planned to lose money in their first two or three years of business, but expect to make a profit starting next year.
They don't expect to have a problem making a profit despite the small size of the industry. Many of their animals have won prizes in alpaca shows and have been successfully bred.
"A lot of people are buying alpacas," Janet said.
But for the Tapplys, alpacas may not be the only rare animals they keep on their farm. Janet thinks Kevin has his mind on racing pigeons again, and the alpacas have got him thinking about another animal that is rarely found in North America.
"Camels," Kevin laughed. "I'd love to have a few camels here."
Approximately 100 alpacas from Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska ranches are coming together for an alpaca show, which includes fiber demonstrations about spinning, weaving and felting alpaca fleece. The show will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday at Ranch-Way Feeds Indoor Arena at The Ranch. Admission is free.

Hell no to ethanol, from Matt Kibbe, Forbes: [S]ubsidizing blending ethanol into gasoline is fiscally indefensible. If the current subsidy is extended for five years, the Federal Treasury would pay oil companies at least $31 billion to use 69 billion gallons of corn ethanol that the Federal Renewable Fuels Standard already requires them to use.

The SAT's 'Adversity Score' Is Both Necessary and an Admission of Failure
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Nicholas B. Dirks is Former Chancellor, University of California, Berkeley, and Chancellor and Vice-Chair of Whittle School and Studios.
The recently announced addition of an adversity metric to the SAT is welcome, and in some ways long overdue. It is also, however, a fundamental admission of the failure of the SAT.
For almost a century, the SAT has been a central element in the American effort to create a new society based on merit and hard work rather than inherited privilege.
The SAT exam was introduced into American schools in June 1926, an outgrowth of various efforts in the U.S. Army to measure innate intelligence. The inventor of this new exam, a Princeton professor by the name of Carl Campbell Brigham, was an ardent eugenicist with characteristic racial theories of intelligence. He designed the SAT to replace content-based examinations used by Harvard and other colleges to test students on the knowledge they acquired mostly from curricula used by New England boarding schools. Growing disillusioned by his new invention, however, Brigham increasingly doubted the capacity of the exam to capture raw intelligence, but by then the exam took on a life of its own.
Editor's Choice
James Conant, President of Harvard in the early twentieth century, saw the SAT as a promising vehicle for identifying talented students from unusual backgrounds, with the goal of recruiting them to Harvard with special scholarships. Henry Chauncey, who worked with Conant at Harvard, moved to Princeton after World War II to build the Educational Testing Service and install the SAT as the single test that could be used more broadly to develop a genuinely meritocratic college admissions process across the U.S.
Ever since, it has been widely assumed that the SAT is a necessary complement to examinations based on content, school grades, and teacher evaluations, for the purpose of evaluating whether a student should be admitted to a particular college. The SAT has been thought to be the one way to measure talent, as opposed to training, as it cleverly uses vocabulary, sentence structure, and textual interpretation on the "verbal" side, and basic mathematical calculations and problem sets on the "math" side, as proxies for raw brain power.
Accordingly, the SAT is not supposed to be about where, or how, you grew up, not about which school you went to, or even about how hard you applied yourself to your studies. In postwar American life, the SAT has been seen as the single and most reliable means for college and university admission offices to identify and access genuine "merit." It is the necessary hand-maiden of the American belief in our fundamental egalitarianism.
But we also know that it is impossible to disentangle individual intelligence from social experience. In the aggregate, the most significant correlation for performance on exams like the SAT is still the zip code (i.e. income level, school quality, racial and ethnic background, etc.).
Perhaps the core problem with the SAT is the problem with all exams: performance on them tells us more about how well we take exams than it does about how well we will do in college, or for that matter in life. For the most part, the single best predictor of college performance itself is past grades. Because there is such variability across schools (and, for that matter, across individual teachers and courses), the attraction of the SAT, beyond its claims for measuring an abstract idea of intelligence, is the promise of objectivity and universality.
The promise of universality, however, has too often been perverse, justifying inequality rather than countering it. There is an exciting new effort to think differently about assessment altogether, to move from an exam-based evaluation system (whether for specific content areas or for general aptitude) to a more nuanced "mastery" based system. Although a change of this kind will never erase all differences of "skill" or even "intelligence," it has the salutary effect of encouraging achievement that can both be more personalized and more adaptive to the future needs of our society and our economy.
Even with significant efforts to change the basis of college selection and recruitment in favor of the goals of diversity and equity, we continue far too much to see both the reproduction of privilege and the corruption of our egalitarian ideas (leaving aside recent examples of the egregious corruption of the college admission process). Despite the best efforts of the College Board, we may need far more than an adversity metric to capture the full potential of new generations of students.

Part I Theoretical Challenges, 3 European Antitrust Criminalization and the Challenge of Deterrence Theory
Peter Whelan Dr
From: The Criminalization of European Cartel Enforcement: Theoretical, Legal, and Practical Challenges
Peter Whelan
- Subject(s):
- Cartels — Fines for cartels — Application of EU competition rules
This chapter focuses on the criminal punishment theory of deterrence. A strong deterrence-based criminalization argument can be constructed concerning cartel activity: imprisonment helps, inter alia, to overcome the significant problems associated with optimally deterrent cartel fine. Arguably, then, deterrence theory can be relied upon as a foundation for antitrust criminalization. However, the deterrence-based criminalization argument is not as robust as some legal commentators would have one believe; in fact, it suffers from a number of potential limitations. Specifically, the case in favour of the employment of criminal antitrust sanctions to deter cartel activity is vulnerable to the extent that one can demonstrate that: (i) cartel activity is morally neutral conduct; (ii) undertakings are risk averse; (iii) undertakings/individuals do not act rationally; and (iv) personal criminal sanctions are incapable of generating more benefits than costs.

Coffee is straight up nectar of the gods. Without coffee, humans are nothing more than sleepy, confused organic machines for the production of feces. With coffee civilization, business, economy, and society are all made not only possible but entirely real. Here are 3 unusual coffees to make your morning routine more interesting and thus enhance your contributions to society.
- Black Ivory. Black Ivory coffee beans are beans that have been eaten by elephants and are then collected out of the elephant dung prior to brewing a fresh cuppa joe with them. These appetizing beans might seem expensive at $73 for a sample pack, but the price is a lot more reasonable when your remember some person had to comb through an elephant shit just to retrieve them for you.
- Kopi Joss. Kopi Joss is an Indonesian specialty coffee served with hot charcoal. The charcoal is said to neutralize the acidic properties of coffee, making it easier to digest. As an added bonus, it smells like BBQ, and the only thing more important to functioning society than quality coffee is great BBQ.
- Cà Phê Trứng. Cà Phê Trứng is a Vietnamese egg coffee made by combining sugar, condensed milk, coffee, and egg yolks. If that doesn't sound appetizing, Buzzfeed's description of the drink as 'liquid tiramisu' might change your mind.
So the next time you wake up and the thought of an average cup of Java is getting you down, remember that you do have other options. Start warming some charcoal, cracking some eggs, or find an elephant poop to go digging through to make your morning coffee extra special and your day extra productive.

In the present era, when all of human civilization is struggling to preserve their individualities as a result of global commercialism and totalitarianism, theatre and drama play a metonymic role in composing and shaping aspects of human existence. However, there is debate as to how much the text and the stage are able to play a significant role towards staging individual voices on the vast global platform. This book, a collection of twelve essays and two interviews from scholars across the world, explores the different perspectives of textuality and performance. The analytical mode of the plays analysed here reveals different possible directions of dramatic reading. It represents a comprehensive study of drama and theatre, and the contributions will serve as an asset for both undergraduate and graduate students. The indigenous perspectives (both in terms of theatre and drama) provided here push the reader beyond the prevailing clichéd drama and theatre studies.

On Tuesday, Oct. 9, Greenpeace announced that the Coca-Cola Company, PepsiCo, and Nestlé are the world's top polluters, according their latest audit.
The organization stated in a press release that these companies were most frequently identified in the international report through the 239 cleanup audits held on World Clean Up Day. The Break Free From Plastic movement was held on World Clean Up Day in 42 countries.
In addition, Greenpeace Canada stated that Canadian Plastic Polluters Brand Audits found the top five polluting corporations are: Nestlé, Tim Hortons, PepsiCo., The Coca-Cola Company and McDonald's.
Further, they state that these brands account for 46 per cent of the 2,231 pieces of identifiable branded plastic trash that they collected during the audit.
"It's high time we shine a light on the role that throwaway plastic producers are playing in the plastic pollution crisis," said Sarah King, Greenpeace Canada's Head of Oceans and Plastics.
"Brand audits create undeniable evidence of how companies like Nestlé, Tim Hortons, PepsiCo., Coca-Cola and McDonald's are trashing our shorelines and green spaces across Canada."
While it was the fourth-worst polluter in the Canadian audit, The Coca-Cola Company was the top global polluter in the international audit. In fact, Coke-branded plastic pollution was found in 40 of the 42 participating countries.
The audit also found that cigarette butts, which contain plastic, remain a major contributor to plastic pollution. In fact, 7,228 cigarette butts were found in the Kitsilano Beach audit alone.
Greenpeace has been calling on plastic producing corporations and distributors to commit to phase out single-use plastics. Alternatively, they urge them to invest in new delivery models based on reuse and refill systems.
Greenpeace is also urging the Canadian government to hold corporations accountable for the environmental and social impacts of their products.

Attention food entrepreneurs dreaming of bringing their products to the larger marketplace: the team behind Keg & Case food hall in St. Paul has announced applications are being taken for short-term lease stalls.
Sixty stalls beginning at 100 square feet are available. The stalls will be curated by the team behind Frank & Ernest Markets and Revival restaurant, both which have new concepts going into the Keg & Case building. Stalls will be available at low cost and for as little as half a day, according to a press release.
"The same stall location could host an omelette maker in the morning, a taco concept at lunch and feature a pop-up ramen shop at dinner. This creates an ever-changing seasonal food experience, ideal for exploration and sparking both customer and culinary creativity," according to a news release. "Plus, food start-ups are able to develop their reputation, discover an audience and achieve profitability in a high-foot traffic, low-upfront cost food-focused setting alongside proven operators."
Applications in multi-languages will be available in late June, with information at https://www.frankandernestfoods.com/kegandcase
Applicants chosen will be offered coaching. Some will be featured at local farmers' and pop-up markets throughout the summer and fall.
Keg & Case is a $10 million food hall and marketplace redevelopment in the historical Keg House in the Schmidt Brewery space on West Seventh in St. Paul slated to open in early 2018.
Some restaurateurs as well as food and drink producers have already been secured. They include a new concept from the team behind Revival restaurant in St. Paul and Minneapolis as well as Hola Arepa, Sweet Science Ice cream, Five Watt Coffee and onsite brewer Clutch Brewing Co.
The teams behind Frank & Ernest and Minneapolis Craft Market are also planning a pop-up market called Hawker, featuring a mix of food, flea and craft market finds.
RED Market, an outdoor farmer's market and plaza with green space and pavilion that will host movies, concerts and other events is also planned. In the winter, the spot will transition to a holiday marketplace that will include a skating rink.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 18 (UPI) -- Thales' Fulmar unmanned aerial system is being supplied to the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency to enhance the agency's surveillance capabilities.
Fulmar, a small fixed-wing UAS, will be installed on six New Generation Patrol Craft now being built by Destini Shipbuilding and Engineering Sdn Bhd.
The Fulmar features automatic detection and tracking systems and an automatic identification system, which will extend the operational capabilities of the Malaysian maritime surveillance fleet.
The range of the catapult-launched drone is about 432 miles.
"As the MMEA seeks to upgrade its surveillance capabilities, the Fulmar provides a competitive solution which complements its state-of-the-art vessels," said Tan Sri Dato' Seri Rodzali Bin Daud, chairman of Destini Berhad. "We are pleased to partner with Thales in further developing the expertise in coastal surveillance in Malaysia."
Thales employees in Malaysia will provide local training and support for the Fulmar starting this year to ensure knowledge transfer for the system's operational and maintenance needs.

The term "teleconnection" refers to a linkage between weather patterns occurring in different regions of the globe. Identifying these teleconnection patterns can help us to forecast more specific weather patterns.
The Pacific North American (PNA) teleconnection pattern focuses on the Pacific Ocean and North America. It has two phases – a positive and a negative phase. Both phases have different implications for the weather pattern over North America.
The Positive Phase brings warmer/drier weather to the West and colder/wetter weather to the East. This is because there are usually higher pressures (ridge) over the western U.S., and lower pressures (trough) over the eastern U.S.
The negative phase of the PNA pattern brings colder/wetter weather to the West and warmer/drier weather to the East. It features lower pressures (trough) over the western U.S., and higher pressures (ridge) over the eastern U.S.
The forecast models make forecasts for the Pacific North American pattern over the next 2 weeks. We can look at these forecasts to get an idea of what the overall weather pattern may be for North America.
We can use the PNA teleconnection pattern to get a rough idea of the 2-week forecast and weather it favors stormier or drier weather over parts of North America.

Rye is Right for Missoula
MISSOULA - As the Clerk and Treasurer for Missoula County, I have had a front seat to the governing style of Missoula County Commissioner Stacy Rye. In her short time on the County Commission, Stacy has been a fierce advocate for open and transparent government. This hasn't earned her any friends but it should earn her your vote.
Without meaningful public access to county government, public decisions are made in a vacuum. Ultimately, the citizens of Missoula County are the ones that are hurt.
To be clear, I don't believe that anything nefarious is at work. Missoula County is simply be...

I appreciated the tips for preparation before we travelled. The trip exceeded our expectations and was just wonderful! The onboard per person credit was useful for small purchases aboard ship and helped pay gratuities at the end of our cruise.
Amawaterways is an exceptional company! They went above and beyond when my sister fell and shattered her elbow the day before she, her husband and I were scheduled to start our Rhine River Cruise with Amawaterways in Basal. She and her husband had to remain in Basal so my sister could undergo surgery. I went on the cruise alone. Amawaterways sent their representative to the University Hospital Basal every day of her stay and helped with paperwork and offered much needed advice. In the meantime, the staff and passengers onboard the AmaKristina ensured that I had a wonderful time. A day did not pass that they didn't inquire about my sister's recovery. When she returned home, she received flowers and a lovely note from the company president. Amawaterways is definitely number one in my book.
Staff was wonderful and extremely accommodating Boat was nice very clean and and in good working order Food was good not excellent Service was excellent and chef did accommodate special requests Specialty restaurant food was excellent But can only go once
The staff was so friendly and the made the trip even more enjoyable. The cruise manager, Marc, was amazing!
The entire AMA Waterways Cruise experience was excellent!
The AMA Kristina was a brand new boat and extremely nice. The staff was wonderful as well as the food. We really enjoyed the organization of the tours and the guides were really good.
Great cruise and great time of the year. As expected, some docking spots needed more time to fully appreciate, and others had too much time with too little to see, but the travelers are all different. Wonderful ship and crew, and the food was fantastic. AMA always does a wonderful job and is most attentive to their travelers. On the extensions, a city tour is very valuable, but if one does not choose the additional excursions offered, there is way too much free time in cities which offer fewer options to a newcomer on their own. Perhaps include a page of alternate sightseeing options, museums, trip advisor tours or such rather than just "free time" on your own, and meals on your own in a strange city. Once on the extension, we did not see our tour director a great deal even though hours were posted for the table in the lobby. Hotel staff was most helpful in question answering and pulling boarding passes, directions, etc.
AMA Waterways is an excellent provider of high quality river cruises. This was our 4th river cruise with AMA and we are planning number 5. Never a problem, everything works moothly and timely. Cruise managers are truly top quality as well as the local tour guides. I can't say enough positive things about AMA Waterways!
