OC Chef's Table 2016: Why Chefs Give Back
Preview of one of Pascal's OC Chef's Table courses.
Pascal Olhats
On March 13, Disney's Grand Californian Hotel will be the site of OC Chef's Table, benefiting the Illumination Foundation (IF). Founded in 2007, IF works to effectively lower the barriers for Orange County's homeless population to access existing services and resources. They offer a low-entry threshold to advance health and housing stability for the most vulnerable members of our community, with a focus on families and those with medical or mental health conditions.
OC Chef's Table features local chefs preparing multi-course dinners tableside for 10 guests. Wine pairings,opportunities to interact with the chef, and a silent/live auction make for a lively fundraiser. We asked a few of the participating chefs about their decision to participate in this event, as well as what they might have planned. Here is what they had to say.

Regarding the event:
I do like the cause of the Illumination Foundation, as we have to take care of the nonsense of having homeless kids in Orange County and anywhere else. We are at the event not only for the foundation, but to also give the donor a return for their generosity. Also, Disney is so helpful and a great host for all the chefs; more than anyone else.

My theme this year is French gastronomy and fashion. I will take pictures and send to you!

Regarding the event:
I think the Illumination Foundation is an amazing cause. OC Chef's Table is a great event where all of us in the industry work together to raise money to fight homelessness. It's great that so many chefs can come to cook together under one roof for the same cause.
Thoughts on your menu:
I will be showcasing what we do best at SeaLegs Wine Bar— fresh California produce, the finest cuts of meat and fresh, local seafood selections from my favorite market, Dory Fleet in Newport Beach. And, of course, guests can look forward to amazing, hand-picked wine pairings that will complement each dish

Regarding the event:
This event targets the often unseen problem of homeless families and children in Orange County. We look forward to partnering with the Illumination Foundation to help combat this problem.
Thoughts on your menu:
We plan on doing a Kaiseki-style meal, which is a traditional multi-course Japanese dinner. I am still working on the exact number of courses and sequence. It should start with a mix of two or three cold appetizers and two or three cooked dishes. Then it will progress to the sushi courses, which should include six or seven seasonal fish served either individually or in pairs. Then a traditional soup or noodle dish will follow before the dessert course. During the meal, a pairing of five different sakes will accompany the courses.

OCAP often argues that social movements need to move "from protest to resistance" if they wish to have a serious impact. What do you mean by that?
OCAP talks of going from "protest†to resistance and fighting to win in an attempt to capture in a phrase or slogan a vital question regarding trying to stop the present neoliberal agenda.
In the years after the Second World War, corporations and governments adopted a policy of making limited concessions to the working class population. Unions were recognized and bargained with, social programs were incrementally strengthened, and living standards were allowed to rise. In return, union leaderships accepted having their organizations incorporated in an edifice of state regulated "labour relations.†Strikes were permitted, but only on a limited basis and not within the life of collective agreements. A whole network of public and private agencies emerged to settle issues of social entitlement through "public discourse.†Protest still occurred but the earlier, explosive movements were replaced by much more limited forms.
Over the last couple of decades, we have now seen a new agenda develop that is dedicated to taking back the earlier gains. The bureaucratic structures of the unions, and the pervasive idea of limiting extra-parliamentary mobilization to the application of moral pressure, now act as a disastrous brake on social resistance. OCAP argues, then, for an end to the notion that we must still respect a social compromise that the other side has walked away from. We advocate a return to disruptive and generalized resistance so as to create a counter power to the neoliberal agenda and create the conditions for its defeat.
Access to mainstream information systems in Canada is largely restricted to supporters of wealth and power, and people have grown to take the Canadian welfare state for granted – even as it is being dismantled. Awareness of the struggles that produced it has largely faded from collective consciousness. Can you elaborate on the "earlier, explosive movements†that you referred to?
Prior to the "post-war settlement,†when social struggle was significantly tamed in return for measured concessions from those in political and economic power, class relations were much harsher. At times when movements were in decline, employers simply rode roughshod over workers and those kept out of the workplace could expect no social provision. When resistance did emerge, it took the form of disruptive and hard fought conflict with authority.
The 1930s unemployed movements are a reflection of this. The notion that the misery of the unemployed would be countered by moral appeals to those in power was not a serious part of the equation. The unemployed organized to win their immediate needs by disrupting relief offices, bringing commercial centres to a standstill, entering restaurants and taking the food they needed and other similar activities. When marches and large scale demonstrations were organized they were met with state repression, and the right to assemble was often won only in literal battle.
The formation of the unions in the late '30s and in the immediate post war years involved occupation of factories and mass pickets that held their ground in the face of police attack. Unions were granted recognition because the level of upsurge by workers simply had to be acknowledged and accommodated.
In many international conflicts today, movements are similarly using disruptive mobilization to attain their goals. The Landless Peasant Movement in Brazil and the road blockades in Argentina are examples of this. The rediscovery of this kind of method of resistance is what OCAP suggests is needed at the present time in Ontario and we try to give a lead in this regard.
In what practical ways has the commitment to reviving the politics of struggle shaped OCAP's strategies and campaigns?
It is simply that OCAP has looked for ways to win tangible victories or move the struggle in a direction that raises the prospect of victory. We have not been powerful enough to turn back the Tory Agenda by ourselves, so we have tried to hamper the implementation of that agenda and to be a pole of attraction for fighting to win that can influence the thinking of others.
Direct action casework – in which we have intervened in thousands of situations to win social entitlements, prevent evictions and deportations – is one example of winning tangible results through collective action. Mobilization on broader issues has followed the same logic. When the last Chief of Police tried a crackdown on panhandlers, we held a mass panhandle in the Eaton Centre as a means of backing him off. When the City refused to open the abandoned Doctor's Hospital as a shelter for the homeless, we took it over and forced them to act. Our present campaign of housing takeovers that we are joined in by others across the country is also a way of actually forcing concessions in a vital area by raising the level of resistance to the point of a crisis for the other side.
OCAP, of course, realises that it will require a turn to resistance by much bigger forces than we have at our disposal at present to stop the Tory onslaught, but we fight as best we can and work for the kind of generalized movement that must be built.
In Ontario, the Tory government has plainly been on the front-lines of the neoliberal offensive you described. As a result, some of Ontario's most dynamic social movements have framed their struggles in terms of a battle against the Tories. How do you think social movements can effectively relate to more "progressive†political parties such as the Liberals and the NDP?
This question puts its finger on a very serious problem. The history of the mounting neoliberal offensive is to advance hard line regimes (like Britain's Thatcher or the Tories in Ontario) but to also slow the pace down periodically with softer parties or governments. It is not that the agenda is ever allowed to be reversed or even brought to a halt, but a more squeamish brand of the same thing is brought in to buy time and prepare for the next all out attack. There are no simple answers to this problem.
Without even changing the regime in Ontario, but only bringing in a dubiously new look Premier, they have disoriented opposition to a serious degree. If the Liberals won the next election (I think we can safely rule out the NDP, although the issues would not be that different in that event) there is no doubt that it would take a period of time for people to see through their promises to reverse the damage of the Tory years. It is not that an organization like OCAP would be fooled but rather that the space we had to operate in would be limited for a period.
I suppose the answer to the question is that we can't completely overcome this problem. We must do all we can to show people the common thread of the neoliberal attack that runs through all governments, and push the capacity for resistance to the limits. We should certainly respond to less overtly brutal regimes by organizing very seriously to hold them to the promises they got elected on. If they said they would reverse the erosion of health care, they should face immediate demands on this front. If they promised to decrease poverty and homelessness, their failings should be challenged right away.
Finally, I suspect that the logic of neoliberalism takes the attack to the point where kinder regimes can't be fronted with any seriousness. In the end, the agenda itself, rather than the political regimes that implement it, will become clear to people.
One way that the Canadian state has responded to the threat that OCAP represents is to force people into resource-sapping legal battles. It particular, the state seems eager to punish those of you that participated in the march to Queen's Park on June 15, 2000. Can you outline what happened that day, and your present legal situation?
On June 15, 2000, we brought about 1,500 people to the Ontario Legislature. Our key demand was that a delegation of six people affected by homelessness be allowed to address the assembled politicians. We wanted to force the most reactionary and intransigent post-war Ontario Government to deal with the victims of its policies. Such a mark of respect would lay the basis for advancing our grievances and winning ground.
No political representative dealt with us that day. The police simply blocked our path. We had intended to press forward in the face of such a response and try to attain negotiation and some mark of respect. The police, however, were used to simply clear the grounds. This they accomplished with considerable brutality but only with great difficulty.
Dozens of people have now been charged and passed through the courts. Ninety day prison terms in two cases are the most serious sentences they were able to obtain, and most of the original charges were dropped. This is not to forget that several of the homeless people who were arrested that day spent weeks and months in jail unable to make bail, or that two women are still facing indictable charges on this matter.
There are three of us, Stefan Philipa, Gaetan Heroux and myself, who the Crown has determined to be "leaders of a planned riot.†We face charges of "participating in a riot,†"counseling to participate in a riot†and "counseling to assault police.†These carry terms of up to five years in jail. The truly serious thing about these charges is that they are selective in nature. Stefan and Gaetan are not alleged to have done anything very serious on the day but have been picked out just as "leaders†for prosecution. In my case, the allegation is that my speech to the crowd was given with the intention of provoking a riot. This has the most serious implications for any movement that organizes resistance and is a major attack on democratic rights.
We will be facing a months long jury trial in January and will offer a serious legal defence in court and take this up as a political fight in the broader public arena. We will muster support around this case that, whatever the result in the courtroom, makes us stronger for the struggles ahead that we will take up.
Looking at how to plug into OCAP's work can be overwhelming – after all, the organization's presently involved in a wide variety of struggles: legal defense battles, resistance against the detention and deportation of immigrants and refugees, actions demanding affordable housing, etc. What would you recommend to students or others who are interested in contributing to these movements?
Students can join in our work in two main ways. Individuals who would like to participate in our work can certainly consider joining OCAP. After a simple intake interview, a person can become a member, attend meetings and plug into the committees and working groups around which our work is organized. At the same time, we are always ready to form working relationships and engage in joint struggles with campus based bodies that want to take action on issues. Whether that is best achieved by advocating that existing organizations take certain directions and actions or it would be easier for students to form new groups is a matter they can best decide.
The following is an excerpt taken from John Clarke's "Anti-Capital/Anti-Poverty,†published in 2001:
"The British Tory, Margaret Thatcher, used to tell those who criticized her government's cutbacks that 'there is no alternative.' She was right in the sense that there's no alternative under this system … If decent paying jobs, living income, adequate housing, health care and education are 'impossible' under this system, then we have to look beyond capitalism …
At present, we are fighting [the Tories], but we fully understand that this fight won't end until working and poor people take society and its resources into their own hands. Democracy can and must be about more than voting every four years on which gang of pirates you want to be robbed by. It must mean the mass of people actually running things and, especially, taking control of the production of society's wealth. OCAP never begs for crumbs. While we may have to defend our crust of bread today, we're working for the moment when we take over the bakery.â€

Homes at Moos Meadows Development for Sale
(SIOUX CITY, IA) A year ago the Moos Meadows Development was an empty lot on the North side of Sioux City.
Lowell Elementary once occupied the space. Now the lot is apart of the federally funded Neighborhood Stabilization Program and four new homes are ready to be sold.
This house is getting the finishing touches. It's one of four new homes in the Moos Meadows Development which is part of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program.
"The purpose of the NSP funds was to help with the foreclosure crisis and one of the things that we did to try and help with that was this was an old school site so we were able to fund the developer to add these 9 houses," says Amy Keairns, Neighborhood Services Coordinator for Sioux City.
The federal government gives out NSP to all 50 states and then the state gets to decide which cities get the money.
In both 2008 and 2010, Sioux City received $1 million to help get these homes up and running.
Sam Moos is the developer.
"I went down and met the City and they had me put a proposal together and purchased the land from the Sioux City Schools where the old school, where this used to be an old school and kind of went from there," says Moos.
9 houses later Sam is proud of the work that's been done.
The development is designed for middle income families. They have to qualify for a 30-year fixed mortgage with a minimum loan of $100,000. The homes in Moos Meadows will sell for less than what it costs to build them - that's where the NSP funds kick in.
Basically the home-owners pay what they can to afford the house and then the federal government picks up the rest of the building costs.
And these homes are environmentally friendly - from Concrete siding, which is more durable than vinyl, to a radon detection system and high-efficiency light bulbs. The list goes on.
There are still four left to be sold, so id you're interested or you just want to see if you qualify call Amy Keairns at 712-279-6255 or visit www.sioux-city.org/neighborhood-services/1262-1620-ingleside-avenue
The homes are at 27th street and Chambers and for the first 10 years all four of them will be tax exempt.

By making peoples physique not only the tool, but the very field of competition, it transmogrified narcissism into a sport. Why, that guys cobblestone abs arent meant to give dames vapors theyre a carefully honed attack, like a pick-and-roll in basketball. Those bulging, beachball thighs arent just an affront to off-the-rack pants theyre the equivalent of a well-coached defensive line.
Flexings fun and all, but competitors will also have to, you know, do stuff. The women will perform a choreographed routine that no doubt will answer any questions about their remaining flexibility; the men will try to pound each other into submission with pull-up and push-up marathons. But in case you feel the need to see displays beyond mere strength and endurance, the event also guarantees a roster of guest posers world-class bodybuilders, you could call them, or perhaps master tacticians.

Mrs F A Hardwick
There has been a recent change in the immigration rules generally but little change to marriage applicants. Waiting for further changes per Panorama could turn in to a lengthy wait. If the main concern is to get him here asap then I should apply under the current rules.
If they are requiring your notorised passport then you will have to provide this, though I am inclined to agree with your characterisation of their efforts.
Were they to marry in Israel then he could apply for a spouses visa straighaway. This is easier in the sense that you would not have to provide the criteria of demostrating their plans to get married by submitting correspondence and evidence of boooking a venue for the marraige (which is usually required I'm afraid). It eases the adminstrative burden and where applying for a fiance visa two applications are required: 1) fiance visa 2) in country application for a spouses visa following marriage.
The difficult with marrying abroad and applying for a spouses visa is that if you are unsuccessful then they are stuck married to each other in different countries. If this is the plan then I would go and see a local immigration solicitor to ask that they initially advise on whether they meet the eligibility criteria and ask that they prepare the application so that you have the best possible chance of approval upon application. Cost: around £800~+Vat
The eligibility crtieria for a spouses is much the same as for fiances:-
Suggested supporting documents in brackets.
If instead you choose to apply for a fiance visa then you will have to remedy the defects by booking somewhere to marry and provided further evidence that they intend to marry (eg. correspondence between the two, perhaps wedding invites). Before you submit that application I would get it checked by an immigration solicitor, they will charge around £300-350+vat for this.
If marrying in Israel your daughter will have to comply with Israeli law on non-Israel nationals marrying in their country. You may have to contact the embassy in this regard.
You can find local immigration solicitors through the following Law Society Website search engine:-
If this has been useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. It will be gratefully received and you will be free to ask follow up questions.Kind regards,Tom

Syrian rebels have captured a military air base near Aleppo, their second victory in two days.
According to the director of the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the rebels gained control of the al-Jarrah air base on Tuesday, the Associated Press reported.
BBC News reported that fighters took control of the air base after days of clashes between rebels and security forces. At least 40 government troops were killed in the clashes, and by capturing the base had gained access to MiG fighter jets.
Al-Jarrah is the second air base captured by the Syrian rebels. Last month, Syrian rebel forces took control of the Taftanaz military base after weeks of fighting with President Bashar al Assad's forces.
Yesterday, rebel forces gained control of the al-Furat dam, which gives the rebel control over water and electricity. According to CBS News, the dam's capture has resulted in many warnings from a analysts that fear that in the wrong hands, the dam could flood large areas of Syria and Iraq.
BBC News reported that currently the dam is still operational-- fighters have been told not to interfere with the workers there.

Decentralized Deterrence, with an Application to Labor Tax Auditing
Deterrence of illegal activities is frequently carried out by many atomistic auditors (tax auditors, law enforcement agents, etc.). Not much is known either normatively about the best way to incentivize atomistic auditors, nor positively about what these incentives actually look like in real world organizations. This paper focuses almost exclusively on the positive question. It proposes a game-theoretic model of decentralized deterrence and an empirical test, based on the equilibrium of the model, to identify the incentives of individual auditors. In the special (but important) case of tax enforcement, the paper fully characterizes the equilibrium of a strategic auditing game and provides a method to calibrate its parameters based on audit data. Applying the model and method to Italian auditing data provides 'proof of concept': the methods are practical and tractable. We are able to provide an estimate of tax evasion based on (non-random) audit data alone. Counterfactual simulation of the model quantifies the costs and benefits of alternative auditing policies. We compare decentralized enforcement with a counterfactual commitment policy, and compute the loss from the former. Thus we are able to quantify the costs of decentralizing enforcement.

Dewan-Tatum: Motherhood's an adventure
Jenna Dewan-Tatum believes she and husband Channing Tatum will "figure parenthood out" when they welcome their new baby this summer.
The pregnant actress and the Magic Mike star are thought to be expecting their first baby this summer.
Speaking to the new issue of America's Glamour magazine, 32-year-old Jenna admitted she isn't sure what kind of parents the couple will be.
"We have two dogs, so we've had some practice!" she gushed.
"And as soon as this baby comes into the world, Channing and I will figure it out real fast."
Jenna will give birth in London, where she will be living while Channing films his next movie.
She also has a thriving career and isn't worried about balancing motherhood and work.
"I think, 'How in the world am I going to do all this?' I have no idea what I'm up against," Jenna revealed. "But I'm as mentally prepared as I can be. It's an adventure!"
The star embraces the changes her figure is going through.
Jenna is also incredibly appreciative of her beau's ongoing support.
"I thought my body was going to change so quickly with pregnancy that I'd freak out," she confessed. "But it was really gradual. There's a reason women are pregnant for nine months; by the end, you're ready to have this baby. Channing has been great. He takes the route of no confrontation, just support, saying things like, 'Do whatever you want! What do you want to eat? I'm going to leave it up to you.'"

- By date
MagnetJul 17, 2013The group has managed to retain a sense of innocence, freshness and pure joy in the act of creation. [No. 100, p.59]
MojoJul 10, 2013An affecting release, it demands repeated plays, emerging as canorous, sly and bewitching. [Aug 2013, p.90]
Jul 2, 2013Turbines has them sounding more like a band and less like a studio project, but around their psychedelic boy-girl harmonies, circling guitar lines and insidiously weird lyrics, there are still plenty of analogue gurgles and swoops and strange, dubwise production finesse
Jun 14, 2013In fact, far from feeling like a tired riff on an established formula, Turbines might just be the most definitive Tunng record yet.
UncutJun 14, 2013Somehow, Turbines suggests both consolidation and progress. [Jul 2013, p.83]
Jun 14, 2013Remarkably, Turbines makes the right choices at almost every turn, never meandering or spending too much time indulging one idea but instead leaving just enough unsaid to keep drawing the listener back.
Jun 14, 2013It's such a nuanced album that it can feel undemonstrative, with even the choruses lacking impact--but that, too, typifies a place where nothing is what it first seems.
Jun 17, 2013It's reassuring to note that, now five albums in, Tunng continue to distill and refine their sound, honing their craft to create their most accomplished album yet.
Jun 17, 2013Their fifth album (strung together by a loose concept about an imagined village you needn't worry about) is as softly satisfying as a bobbly old jumper. One with thumbholes.
Jun 14, 2013Tunng have been moving towards this downbeat place slowly, and their arrival here shows a real cohesion in them as songwriters and as a band. It's less the sound of a band losing their edge and more the sound of them finding their zen.
Jun 20, 2013Whilst the prettiness in Tunng's music can often be deceiving, it can also become a little oppressive after a while. The sound world can feel a little too bright and cute.
Jun 14, 2013It's Tunng's most direct effort yet, eschewing the "folktronic" bricolage of albums like Good Arrows; but there's plenty happening beneath the surface.
Q MagazineJul 10, 2013As it stands, the lack of genuine emotion here does the musical invention shown on Turbines a disservice, and ultimately delivers Tunng's least satisfactory album to date. [Aug 2013, p.107]

After a few years away, a decades-old tradition has returned to San Dieguito Academy with the reconstruction of a 51-year-old bell tower.
The tower, which was built in 1961, held sentimental significance for many students who have attended the Encinitas school over the years.
"It's almost as if it's the spirit of the campus," said Bonnie Wren, who helped with the fundraising effort. "The tower is pretty iconic."
In fact, the bell was named "The Spirit of San Dieguito" and has those words inscribed on it.
Originally, it was used as a victory bell that students rang during graduation ceremonies or after sports wins.
"The bell tower, without a doubt, is one of my fondest memories on campus," said Doug Elmore, who graduated in 1978, back when it was still known as San Dieguito High School.
Workers knocked it down about two years ago when they built a performing arts center there.
The district ran out of money to rebuild it, but current and former students stepped in to raise the needed money. Others volunteered to help plan and rebuild the approximately 15-foot structure. The work started in September and was finished last month.
Current students didn't seem as emotionally attached to the bell as the older ones, but several said Thursday that they're happy to have it at the front of the 76-year-old campus.
"It kind of reminds me of old-fashioned good old days," 17-year-old Angele Meunier said.
Besides, it also provides a cool place to congregate, and its shingled roof protects students from seagull poop, said Allison Sakihara, 14.
The bell tower was built in 1961 by the father of a student, who got the original bell from a local church, Wren said. At some point, the bell broke and disappeared, but it was replaced in 1986 with a new one ordered from a manufacturer in England.
Over the years, the nearly 80-pound bell was sometimes taken temporarily as a prank. Because of this, school officials installed louvers to cover it up. With time, some people forgot it was even there, Wren said.
Now, it's back in place and has Plexiglass covering it instead of wood shutters, but school officials aren't sure how they're going to use it. Principal Tim Hornig said he hopes to work it into the school day somehow.
The bell could last for hundreds of years, said Ila Ree Decker Piel, who graduated from the school in 1961 and helped organize the fundraisers that paid for the bell in 1986.
"It's really great that the tradition of the bell tower and the bell is still there," she said.
The school's nonprofit foundation held a ceremony last month to celebrate the return of the bell. Many alumni were there, including a cheerleader from the class of 1937, who was the first to ring it.
"It was such a great moment, just to hear that bell rung for the first time," Wren said.

Greene Central victory inserts Rams in playoff discussion
SNOW HILL�They don't control their own destiny, but just the fact that the Greene Central baseball team is in the playoff discussion seemed out of the question barely two weeks ago.
What happened?
A combination of the Rams taking care of business along with a slump by the team ahead of them in the Eastern Carolina 2A conference standings: South Lenoir.
The Rams knocked off the Devils, 6-1, on Tuesday. Assuming that GC swept Goldsboro as expected in a regular-season ending twinbill Wednesday, then the Rams would need just one more miracle to have a shot at extending their season.
South Lenoir plays at Kinston tonight, and a KHS victory would drop SL into a tie for third place with Greene Central.
GC's victory over the Devils on Tuesday was a reminder of what could have been for the Rams, who have lost 15 games this season � 8 by two runs or less.
�It was probably our most complete effort of the season,� said acting Greene Central head coach David Bryant, filling in for Scott Jones, who was away with his ailing father. �We hit the ball with runners on base, which has been a trouble spot this year, we played solid defense and our pitcher threw an outstanding game. It was good to finally put everything together.�
Senior James Head went the distance and surrendered just five hits to a skidding SL team that has scored just four runs in its last four games, three of them losses. He walked one and struck out four.
In addition, Head delivered a clutch two-run single that helped break open a tight game.
�What a great way for James to finish his senior season,� Bryant said. �He made his final regular-season start on the mound, shut down a very good South Lenoir team and got a big hit that really turned the momentum in our favor.�
Head's two-out base hit put the Rams on top, 5-1, and seemed to totally deflate the visitors.
GC collected eight hits in the contest, including doubles by Kevin Ormond, Davis Wilson, Bailey Ormond and Justin Lee.
Bailey Ormond knocked in a pair of runs with two hits.
SL coach David Combs was once again left searching for answers regarding his team's late-season swoon.
�We're not hitting the ball, but we're also not playing with any enthusiasm,� Combs said. �The two go together and right now we're not playing with intensity. Tonight we just didn't seem ready to play.�
Justin Howard's second-inning base hit plated Montana Thompson with SL's only run.
No Devil batter had more than one hit.
�A week ago we were playing for first place and now we're fighting for our playoff lives,� Combs said. �The time for urgency is here and we have to start playing like it before it's too late.�

Real Estate Law
Have Real Estate Law Questions? Ask a Real Estate Lawyer.
What additional info do you need?
Under the title Brokers fee....It states the "Brokers fee in the case of a sale is as follows: (these are hand written in)....6% on net sales price after any sellers assist.
* A $500 payment is paid to Villager if property is withdrawn prior to 7/18/13
That is all that is noted there....
The only other info is in the standard contract that states in a later paragraph...
* Owner will pay a brokers fee after the lease ending date of this contract IF:
(1)The property is sold, leased or exchanged in whole or part within 60 days of the ending date, AND (2) the property was presented to buyer/tenant or negotiated to buy or lease teh property during the term of this contract. Owner will not owe brokers fee under the provisions of this paragraph if after the expiration of this contract owner has entered into an exclsuive right to sell or lease contract for the property with another broker at the time of sale.
Thank you... May I just as for a little more clarification?
I am thinking of ending the contract early because I feel they have conflicts in their interests and are not even remotely trying to sell the building. We have not shown, negotiated or in any way contracted with anyone else...but we have spoken with a personal friend who has never spoken with our real estate in any way...but they would like to see the building...There is nothing but casual conversation and they want to see it and have us show them...For reasons already mentioned we are considering withdrawing the contract early either way but I am concerned as to what then could happen should our friends eventually show an interest.

Here's how he does it with ARmax..
|I use a combination of codes and a glitch. First put your favorite wheels on a moddable car, then park it at the garage in Ganton. Note that this glitch only works with wheels, & nitrous and sometimes hydraullics. If you put any other mods on this car, your game will freeze.
Then you use the "replace car at cj's garage with..." code, and the color modifier codes for it.
The code replaces the car you parked in the garage with the car you chose with the replace code. A glitch then morphs the mods from the parked car onto the replacement car.

No Heat and Auto-Stop, won't stop
I have the opposite auto-stop issue than most other 2003 HCH owners.
It started a while back when I noticed the heat stopping to work at certain times for no apparent reason. Blowing cold air, when it was working fine a few minutes before. Engine temp is high enough at all times. Then it will start working again after a while. Today gave me the best hint. It is -20 outside and the heat stopped again and also the auto-stop kept coming on. When the heat started again the auto-stop would not come on in the cold temp (working properly). So it seems, by my logic, the thermostat that operates the auto-stop is also the same one that operates my in-car temp. It must be registering hot enough to start running cold air to cool my interior and also hot enough outside to start using auto-stop again. Just a guess but the best I can come up with. Does anyone know where this thermostat reader is located and if they are in-fact the same for both?

It's Fat Tuesday today, and once again a portion of the proceeds from all three Amoeba stores and Amoeba.com will benefit relief efforts in New Orleans.
We're also having our annual Mardi Gras festivities at Amoeba Hollywood and SF. Our family-friendly events start at 3 p.m. at Amoeba Hollywood, with DJ Humble B starting things off, and our annual Mardi Gras parade at 4 p.m, with Mr. Ray on the turntables. At Amoeba SF, we'll have DJs starting at 2 p.m.
A portion of the day's in-store and online proceeds will go to New Orleans charities Tipitina's Foundation and the New Orleans Musicians' Clinic. Tipitina's Foundation seeks to preserve Louisiana and New Orleans' musical heritage, while New Orleans Musicians' Clinic is dedicated to providing affordable healthcare to New Orleans musicians. New Orleans continues to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, one of the costliest and deadliest natural disasters in U.S. history, and at Amoeba we're dedicated to continuing to do our part to help, including raising $1,000 for the New Orleans organizations at our recent charity auction Feb. 7.
Fat Tuesday in Christian tradition takes place the day before Ash Wednesday, when you're supposed to feast and drink and be merry before the penintential season of Lent, leading up to Easter Sunday. Since then it's also become a global celebration from Brazil to Senegal, full of costumes, festivities, parades and general decadence. Read about the Mardi Gras Indians here at the Amoeblog.

North Park Jack in the Box court case surprise
"I am not going to subject my clients to abusive declarations by Mr. Briggs."
Dorian Hargrove 1:15 p.m., Sept. 25
If you've been following Occupy San Diego at all, you'll probably recognize Mike Garcia.
The well-dressed and articulate 48-year-old drug-abuse counselor has acted as a prominent media liaison with the group of protesters for "social and economic justice" alongside Ray Lutz (a 54-year-old activist and 2010 Democratic Candidate for Congress in California's 52nd congressional district who was arrested last month for placing a voter registration table on the Civic Center concourse) and John Kenney, who ended his 36-day hunger strike earlier this month.
Part of an explicitly leaderless movement, Garcia explains how he came to be an impromptu spokesperson for the ongoing protest which began on October 7 and to date has seen 139 arrests, 29 of which have resulted in charges.
How did you get involved with Occupy San Diego?
"I guess you could say I've always been an armchair liberal. I'm definitely socially liberal and at the same time I'm conservative fiscally and in other areas. I'm definitely anti gun control. There are a lot of areas where I would not agree with a purely liberal point of view, but the point is I've always done it from home. I would discuss politics with friends and family, donate money online, argue with coworkers. But it wasn't until Occupy that I got up off the couch and got involved.
"I think I'm like most people in that economic circumstances got me off the couch. I spent 12 years in the mortgage industry. I was making six figures at one point and, like many Americans, when the bubble burst, I found I was not prepared for it. I gave up many creature comforts and went back to school (City College) in the substance abuse counseling field. I found that there is no more money for school. There is no money for health care. The culmination of all of that got me off the couch to do something about it.
"When I got to Occupy I found so many people who felt the same way and appreciated what I was doing. I never protested before. I'd never written a press release. I'd never held a press conference. Before this I was living a very calm, quiet, anonymous life. And I have to admit there's a certain rush to it. I'm there. I'm doing it. It's exciting. I've met some of the most fantastic people in the world. It's truly changed my life in a way I can hardly describe."
Do you think the ongoing squabbles over municipal code with the San Diego Police Department are distracting from the original goals of the Occupy movement?
"I think that depends on who is looking for and reporting the information. We don't want to battle with the police. Much of what we do would benefit the police - their pension funds, the kids they're sending to college, their overall standing as middle-class citizens. The unfortunate thing is that there is a long history with civil disobedience where the people upstairs demand that the police use these tactics. When we talk to police as individuals, they have no interest in doing this. They are ordered to do this. They say: I'll lose my job if I don't follow orders, and I can't afford to do that in this economy.
"There have been a lot of illegal searches and seizures. The police took an Amercian flag from a veteran and issued a citation. They played grinch on Christmas and confiscated a tree. They stopped people from bringing leftover Christmas food to protestors. We had a showdown a couple weeks ago regarding illegal lodging, and we actually got the police to change their tactics. Instead of arresting people and taking them to jail, they began following their own rules and offering people who are asleep a shelter bed. If none are available, people are allowed to sleep until 5 a.m.
"The civil disobedience allows us the forum to get our message out to people who it resonates with. The vast majority of people - be they left, right, or down the middle - agree that our system of government is broken."
What is your response to the perception that Occupy San Diego has been losing steam since beginning nearly three months ago?
"Obviously the numbers aren't the same as the beginning of October when we had 100 tents and could draw from 500 to 1500 people for a protest. But we make up for it with the absolute resolve and commitment of the people there. It's not that we don't have things to do or families to be with. We have resolve.
"A homeless woman who was arrested at the Civic Center the other day told me that there are many places she could be that are more comfortable where she won't be harassed by cops. But she wouldn't be anywhere else. Occupy is where she wants to be. So although numbers are less, the resolve of the people is much stronger, and I think that backbone will serve us very well in the spring time. It's forging stronger leaders for a leaderless movement."
Occupy San Diego will be occupying the corners of Genesee and Balboa from noon to 3 p.m. on January 1 as part of a new Occupy Corners action.
"Instead of protesting en mass, we protest on individual coroners of busy intersections," says Garcia. "We are allowing people to come up to us and ask what's going on."
A dozen to twenty protestors will be boarding a bus on January 12 and at least four others will be flying to Washington D.C. to take part in the Occupy Congress and Occupy the Supreme Court actions.
"Our plan is to Livestream at every stop, even its just a few minutes," Garcia says. "We plan on getting out and protesting on the street. We may even visit a member of congress or city council. Many occupiers will be joining us on the bus along the way."
Donations to the trip can be made here.
Says Garcia: "We're keeping our focus on the message of Occupy Wall Street, which is: our government is broken, it no longer represents we the people, and it's up to us to fix it."
Says Garcia: "We're keeping our focus on the message of Occupy Wall Street, which is: our government is broken, it no longer represents we the people, and it's up to us to fix it." == Same message as the Tea Party, two sides of the same coin except OWS is doing more for the cause.
TP has been on the sidelines watching how it is done.

This is a poem I composed to express the feeling of summer days in Okinawa.
Drops of sweat glisten in the sun,
Trickling down flushed-out cheeks.
Like rain-wash in a stony crag,
Moisture flows and humidity peaks.
The stickiness of summer pervades
The body like a painful prick
Cicadae sing their stridulate songs,
Ad nauseam to make one sick.

I've read many of the threads here and gotten quite a bit of information. My biggest question is regarding "culture shock." I saw several references to it. Can anyone tell me their experience with culture shock?
Both my husband and I have professions that would allow us to move to NZ, though I would probably be a SAHM. Our children are young, 3 and 6 (in a couple weeks.) We homeschool with a leaning towards unschooling. We're vegetarians who, by medical necessity, keep a gluten, dairy, cane sugar, and tomato free house.
We're just now exploring our options. Anyone got any BTDT advice? In considering moving there, our two biggest concerns are: where can my husband get a job (he's a project manager) and where is a good secular homeschooling community. We currently have a great homeschooling community and my son has lots of friends. I want to make sure we can find another such community.
We live in Arizona. We want to escape both the politics and the heat. However, I am a desert rat. It's 74 degrees in the house and my feet are freezing. As I read about the uninsulated houses I got even colder. How hard is it to find an insulated house? Especially for a reasonable rent? (I'm not sure how long we'd come for so we'd start out renting.)
I'm not sure what questions to be asking. I'm new to this process so just trying to figure it all out.
I read about some ex-pat online groups. Can anyone share a link to one? Especially one that might be friendly to a co-sleeping, AP, homeschooling, still nursing, middle-aged liberal?
Created an instant family (7/89 and 5/91) in 1997. Made a baby boy 12/05 adopted a baby girl 8/08. Ask me about tandem adoptive nursing and living as gluten, dairy, and cane sugar free vegetarians. Homeschooling and loving it.
We moved from North Carolina to NZ a bit over a year ago. I don't think we had culture shock, so much as just needing to adjust to Kiwi-time LOL. EVERYTHING here closes at 5pm. Even some of the gas stations in small towns. (grocery stores and some of the larger chains stay open till 8 or 10, but they are the exceptions to the rule). We actually love this, now. NZ is kinda like stepping back 30 or so years in the US. It's a much slower pace of life, people aren't stressed out all the time, you don't see hoards of people wandering around with their faces stuck to an iphone, etc. (granted the fashion is like that, too...it's like the early 90s is making a return with the skinny jeans and neon colored hats sometimes!)
People here are so nice. In the year+ we've been here, we've met about 3 rude people...and 2 of them were teenagers. Neighbors are always willing to help.
As a vegetarian, you will LOVE all the local food you can get. Never ever buy produce from the grocery store...you can get it at road side stands, farmers markets, and such MUCH cheeper and with better tastes.
As a project manager, you might want to look in the Christchurch area. They will be doing a lot of rebuilding over the next few years and I'm sure there will be a job boom once they decide what to do with the area.
I can't speak to the homeschool groups on the South Island. We are in Wanganui, on the southern coast of the North Island. We have a group here that is fantastic...lots of members, near-weekly field trips, orcehestra, dedicated times for homeschool gymnastics and swim lessons, weekly playgroups, etc. (Granted, its' a Christian group, but honestly it's not terribly overt and I'm sure you would fit in :) )
Honestly, we love it here. I wish we didn't have to move back to the US. The only thing we miss is our family :(
ETA: Meant to add, re: cane sugar. Nearly everything here is sweetened with real sugar (even the soft drinks...I don't think I've yet to see anything sweetened with HFCS). But it's easy enough to find other sweetners in the stores. The honey here is amazing...manuka is local. Oh. My. SO good!

WWE Royal Rumble 2014 Rumors [VIDEO]: Shield Break Up Coming, Roman Reigns To Win Rumble Match?
on Dec 19, 2013 12:09 PM EST
On Jan. 26, the WWE presents its first pay-per-view of the New Year as the Royal Rumble emanates live from the Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh, and the WWE has already started to plan out the event and it seems as though Shield member Roman Reigns will be featured prominently on the card.
The WWE's website posted about the Rumble match itself with a preview on the site that confirmed that the winner will go on to face WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton--if he's still the title holder--at WrestleMania XXX at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on April 6 in New Orleans.
In the past, the WWE had two titles that the winner could go for, but now with the belts being unified at TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs, the preview clarified that the winner is guaranteed a title shot against the holder of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, the WWE has big plans for Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble and one backstage source with knowledge of the plans described them as "even bigger than anyone would have thought."
The WWE has been intent on pushing Reigns as the company continues to hint at the eventual breakup of The Shield on television. Signs of his push were evidenced during the traditional five-on-five elimination tag team match at the Survivor Series where Reigns eliminated four out of the five members of the opposing team before standing tall as the sole survivor.
It remains to be seen what exactly the company's plans are for Reigns, but speculation could lead to a possible Rumble match win for the Shield member, though with his push in the early stages that could seem highly unlikely.
It is likely that Reigns will have a dominant performance at the event by eliminating superstar after superstar like what Diesel did in 1994 when he stood tall in the ring at the start of his push, or like Kane did in 2001 when he eliminated a record 11 WWE Superstars from the match.
Reports have surfaced that the WWE has already started working on names for surprise entrants to come out during the Royal Rumble match and that the two most speculated names include Hulk Hogan--who may be out now that he reportedly might not be able to wrestle at WrestleMania due to an inability to pass medical tests--and Chris Jericho.
The Royal Rumble takes place Sunday Jan. 26 live from the Consol Energy center in Pittsburgh, and it will be interesting to see what kind of role Reigns plays in the event and who wins the title shot for WrestleMania XXX.

In Assassin's Creed 2, you have been betrayed by the ruling families of Italy- you will have to learn how to interact and use the 'common people' or, like we call them in the game, "the underworld", to get your revenge. So you can generally consider that the crowd is on your side (except of course if you behave too badly!). First, any crowd NPC can help you to hide - just go into a group and press the blend button to enter a crowd and lower your chances of being noticed by guards. The crowd can help you to walk through the city unnoticed but isn't 100% detection-proof as some classes of guards actively search you out even in hiding spots.
We have also added a new "notoriety system". Your actions in the city will impact your notoriety: break the law one too many times and you will become "wanted" in the city.
The notoriety system monitors your actions and is directly linked to the crowd in the game. The more "commotion" you cause in the city, such as killing innocents, the more notorious you become: people will become more aware of your actions and the authorities will search for you. If you are notorious, you have a much higher chance of being seen by patrolling guards, even if you're trying to blend your way through. There are various ways to decrease your level of notoriety and return to an anonymous state:
- Assassinate witnesses
- Bribe a Herald
- Get rid of warrant posters with your face on them
You can also use certain groups or "factions" to perform specific actions. There are three main factions in the game: the thieves, the courtesans and the mercenaries. Throughout the game, you will meet their leaders, for example, Antonio, the cunning thief leader who will ask you to do certain missions for him. The Faction leaders will have an important role in the story, both gameplay and story wise. Once you gain Antonio's trust, the members of the thief guild will be fully operational to help you perform specific tasks. For example, the courtesans will be able to go seduce and distract groups of guards letting Ezio sneak past them unnoticed. Using factions and their unique special abilities adds a whole layer of strategy to the game.
Faction Leader: Mario - Ezio's uncle
Raised alongside his brother to become a trained fighter, Mario's focus was on armed combat and group maneuvers. He has built up a sizeable following of condottiere over the years. They believe him to be just another mercenary captain, but he uses them primarily to fight against Templar interests in the region. Since the Templars themselves have integrated into Italian nobility, to the outside observer, the fighting seems to be business as usual.
Mario takes Ezio under his wing early in the game - training him in basic combat skills.
Faction Leader: Antonio
Antonio's base of operation: Hideout in the Venetian commercial district
Came from a poor family. Father was a cobbler and his mother was a maid for an upper-class family. His was an unrefined, but honest life. Antonio, wanted more however, and did all he could to break free of his meager heritage. But it proved impossible. No matter how hard he studied - the schools would not accept him. No matter how hard he worked, he could never make enough money to afford a better house or nicer clothes. And so he came to realize that hard work was not enough. If he truly wanted more - he'd have to TAKE it. If he couldn't become a person of stature in normal society, he'd find his way in the black market, which is far more accepting of outsiders. Besides, the Venetian nobles are so immoral and corrupt; it's hard to say who the REAL criminal is. He sees himself as a true noble - noble in spirit and action, not blood and title. He is kind and compassionate to his fellow thieves.
Antonio considers the thief's guild a business. It's more mafia than petty theft. He has his fronts (i.e. antique shops) and is very careful about who he and his men target. They don't engage in petty crimes and they don't target ordinary citizens. They're more Robin Hood in that they tend to go after corrupt nobles. They never take enough to hurt - unless it's personal.
Antonio sees potential in Ezio. He may be the secret weapon needed to win the "war" in Venice. He will test our hero in order to ensure he's up to the task. Ezio proves himself more than capable and soon becomes a major force in helping Antonio.
Faction Leader: Paula
Paula's base of operation: Florence brothel
Paula was born into a family of assassins, but lost both her parents when she was eight years old. She soon found herself without a family and living on the streets. She grew into a beautiful young woman and used this to her advantage. But it eventually attracted unwanted attention and she was basically held prisoner by a corrupt Florentine guard for several years before freeing herself and murdering him. The crime brought her to an assassin member's attention. He soon realized who she was - and brought her back into the Assassin fold. The guards murder remains "unsolved." Paula was abused by an Officer of the Night when she was a teenager. Tortured, raped, and held captive, she eventually managed to free herself and exact revenge by killing the man. Since then she has devoted herself to caring for the other cast out women of Florence. Her brothel thus functions as something of a halfway house and foster home. It's not the most traditional form of rehabilitation, but she does what she can for the girls.
When Ezio decides to strike back against those responsible for destroying his life, Paula agrees to help him. She knows he won't be dissuaded - but with her help perhaps he can succeed and survive.

Happy Valentines Day… to Me!
It was LOVE at first sight… this Anthropologie chair made my heart race.
Unfortunately we've not one single spot for such a chair in Casa Anderson… it is FULL and DONE. Sad. But, I had already fallen in love… with that rustic, pieced together style, the top stitching and frayed edges reminiscent of a man's suit mid-construction, and the neutral fabrics of varied tones and textures. I just couldn't get this chair out of my mind and decided there must be something to be be made in that same style… something that I would have room for in my home.
So, with an idea in mind, I rifled through my scraps, spare fabrics and trims, and set aside burlaps of different shades,weights and textures along with some scraps of lace picked up at a flea market. All were washed and dried and cut into usable bits which I then pieced together to make one large cut of fabric. Then, the stitching began. It was very simple… I used a giant needle, cotton string and brown embroidery thread to form large, crude and rough hand stitches. In the end, I had a tablecloth.. rustic, frayed, patched together, top stitched and to me… just beautiful. The pictures don't do it justice…
Finished just yesterday, so…. Happy Valentines Day to me! Now, will I be brave enough to serve dinner on it??
Well, yes I was! Last night before Mr. MM left on a trip we enjoyed an early V-Day dinner, red wine and all. The new tablecloth survived! Here you can see part of our nutritious meal… my Paleo/Primal almond flour biscuits stuffed with a TINY bit of fresh mozzarella and proscuitto. They were YUMMMMMMM…
Hope your day is filled with LOVE!!

Hi everyone,
I've got a question and I need your help.
My grandparents have their 60 wedding anniversary in few weeks and I will create a family tree cake.
I found one on flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/theuncommoncakery/6033850578/) and I really love it. Would be great if I could make it, too.
The problem is, I've got no idea how to manage that the tree trunk will hold the crown.
Have you got any ideas? The crown will made of cake, covered with fondant.
Thanks a lot!
LOL... I would use a cake plate. Cover the base of the plate with the brown fondant and hide the plate under the cake (I have some really small cake plates.
Or... create your own "cake plate" with a pvc "trunk", mounted to a base and attached to a "plate" to still cake on.
yes what johnson6ofus said
use two plates and one tube
scroll down to see the acrylic tubes
you can use a bigger plate on the bottom for nice secure stability
Ah ... okay,
I think I get it.
Thank you for this interesting idea.
I think I'll try it that way
Thanks a lot!
you're welcome!
y'know just 'cover' the top cake plate with leaves that hang down or something
you can have the cake kinda poof out on the sides a bit to get that look you want in the picture
i've used that set up for many sculptures
i gotta whonking chalice in my photos somewhere made that way--at least two feet tall
