Let’s call this the battle of the animated animals. NO, the battle of the genre’d animated animals.
In one side of the ring we have Blacksad, the noir graphic novel starring a giant black feline private eye named John Blacksad. In the far side of the ring, we have plucky Rango, a laissez-faire chameleon who ends up deep in the heart of a Western movie.
Blacksad will draw you in with its art, done by Juanjo Guarnido, a Spanish-based illustrator who used to draw for Disney. For adults of a certain generation, this means all of the animals feel slightly familiar, like they are echoes of childhood animated movies you can’t remember. Of course, the effect can be a bit creepy, as these are meant for adults, and there are definitely some adult situations for your run-of-the-mill cartoon dogs and cats.
The book it reminded me of most was Maus, the Pulitzer-Prize winning Holocaust memoir by Art Spiegelman. Blacksad doesn’t address the same dark issues, or have the same level of sophistication, as Maus, but several plot points rely on the “species as race” divisions for their conflict.
As far as the stories go, if you’re a fan of private eyes and the like, you’ll be well pleased. It’s really the amazing illustrations that set Blacksad apart. I’d recommend it to any casual comic reader to show that there really is something for everyone.
In all honesty, I caught Rango on a plane, so I may have missed some precious jokes.
Rango is crazy. Director Gore Verbinski must have got real sick of the pirate genre, because he crammed every film reference he could into his first animated movie. It was more Tarantino than Tarantino; I counted: Apocaplyse Now, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Chinatown, The Big Lebowski, True Grit, any spaghetti western you can name, and, indeed, Pulp Fiction.
A tangent that shall become related soon enough: my dad always used to complain about kids’ movies that pander to the adults that have to watch them too (Shrek being a key culprit). Watching this movie, with its filmbuff asides and prostrate jokes, did make me wonder who this film was for (sleepy twenty-somethings on planes?).
Luckily the characters have enough loopy charm (although Johnny Depp! are you ever going to play normal again!) and the plot is just simple enough that the film works. Plus, the animation is really captivating, with scenes of a (rodent-sized) Western town and the surrounding desert.
I’d say Blacksad by the whiskers of his chin.
Check out the Dark Horse preview for Blacksad.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes video for Rango.
Ugh. I have a stack of books towering on my bedside table. They are part of the New Regime (resolution-style), and they are all good for me (Zen! Shakespeare! Financial management!) but they are certainly not FUN. My eyes were even glazing on BART over reading The Street of Crocodiles, by Bruno Schulz, which is very lovely but meandering.
Lucky the SF Library pulled through at exactly the right time! I finally received Julia Wertz’s Drinking at the Movies, a graphic novel memoir, which I requested months ago.
Anyways. Wertz’s memoir chronicles her move from SF to Brooklyn, and as I live in the beginning end of her journey, I didn’t find as many places to squeal about. (Although her cliches about the Bay were pretty apt). It’s the mid-20s crisis that especially hits close to home for me. What the heck am I supposed to be doing? Is everyone else this aimless? Why can’t I get paid for drinking beer and watching tv in my bed?
Wertz has an open, if not entirely friendly voice and drawing style to accompany those of us struggling in your twenties (and if you’re not struggling, I DON’T WANT TO HEAR IT). Her own life has a few more curveballs, as her brother is a recovering addict and her own relationship with alcohol suggests addiction might run in the family. But it’s a wry, frank, and funny take on that time in your life when you not only don’t only know how to put on your bootstraps, you don’t even know what bootstraps are.
I’m determined to check out her earlier work (which takes place in San Francisco!!!), Fart Party. Here’s her website, and blog, and stuff on Amazon.

The trailer for season sixteen of Keeping Up With The Kardashians has dropped, and it is promising to address all of the drama that has been going on these past six months. The KarJenner klan started filming the upcoming season in August last year, and the shooting wrapped at the beginning of March, and anyone who is keeping up with the famous family on social media knows that a lot has gone down during that time. The trailer showed snippets of a lot of very emotional footage, tears, fights, and confessions, and a lot of questions will most likely be answered.
In season sixteen of KUWTK, there will be a mix of positive news, such as the announcement of Kim and Kanye's fourth child, and business deals going well, but there will of course also be a lot of upsetting scenes mostly revolving Khloé. According to the trailer, viewers are going to get a lot more intel on the Revenge Body hosts relationship with Tristan Thompson, and it seems as if they are also showing Khloé reacting to the whole Tristan and Jordyn Woods cheating scandal. The mother of one is seen crying, pleading her fans for understanding and compassion, and at one point going off at someone over the phone screaming 'liar'.
As reported by People, there is also a bittersweet sequence where the entire family is gathered around a dinner table, and Kris is raising her glass proposing a toast to Kylie and Jordyn, celebrating their makeup collaboration for Kylie Cosmetics. Seeing as the former BFF's are reportedly not speaking since the scandal broke, it must be hard to relive for everyone involved.
In what appears to be her addressing Tristan's cheating, Khloé is heard saying that he might love her, but he has no respect for her. It is not clear if she is referring to Tristan's infidelity in April last year just days before Khloé gave birth to their daughter True, or the more recent incident involving Jordyn.
All Kardashian fans will be tuning on Sunday the 31st for the first episode of season sixteen, and even though everyone has been kept up to date with all the drama since the last season of KUWTK, it will be interesting to see things that have gone down as they played out.

A brand new Colibri Quasar two in one table top cigar cutter. The Quasar cutter is a two in one combination of the Colibri V Cut and S Cut cigar cutters in the ultimate desktop/tabletop format. Taking its design language from the Colibri Quasar series of luxury desktop humidors and cigar ashtrays that feature a four sided pyramidal peak motif, the Quasar cutter is beautifully and deceptively simple. On two opposing sides of the Quasar are housed a “V Cut” blade on one, and an “S Cut” blade on the other. The cutter is engaged by pushing down on the top peak of the Quasar, which releases and pops up the cutting unit with both blades ready in unison.

text: THIS DAY IN MUSIC……………………………………………..on April 15th of 1972 Roberta Flack’s “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” became an unlikely number one hit after it was featured in the Clint Eastwood film “Play Misty For Me.” It had been originally released as an album cut three years earlier. After Eastwood included it in his film, Atlantic Records rush released it as a single. The song reached #14 in the UK. Folk singer Ewan MacColl wrote this in 1957 for his lover Peggy Seeger. She was in a play and phoned him for suggestions on a song for a romantic scene. MacColl wrote this on the spot in less than an hour. MacColl was married to his second wife, Jean Newlove at the time. He left her for Peggy Seeger and the pair eventually tied the knot in 1977. This was the breakout hit for Roberta Flack; it was #1 in the US for six weeks. Flack had released two solo albums without commercial success, as her blend of jazz and folk styles struggled to find an audience. This won the Grammy awards in 1973 for Song of the Year and Record of the Year, beating out Don McLean’s “American Pie” in both categories. The title is the first words of the lyrics, but that is the only place those words appear.

Randy Simmons was the first LAPD SWAT officer to be killed in the line of duty as a result of an eleven hour hostage standoff in Winnetka, CA. Randy had a great career in law enforcement and he did great things in the community in which he took an oath to protect and serve.
Many people and organizations have honored Randy posthumously for his heroism as a police officer and froth the things that he did off duty. The man behind the badge was a true hero, a positive role model and a constant mentor for "at risk" youth.
Randy had a huge heart that was filled with love, faith, hope, commitment, loyalty and trust. He committed his life to things of God and extended his hands to the less fortunate. He was particularly passionate about helping children in low income neighborhoods. He believed that if enough people volunteered a little time to mentoring kids that it would change the behavior and attitudes of children, thus providing hope for a brighter future.

Living in Japan, I have gained a deeper appreciation for springtime and the beauty that comes after the cold of winter. Thank you Lord for new life and the beauty of your creation!
I went in to the Ginza/Tsukiji area to Hamarikyu gardens to check out these incredible yellow (rapeseed) flowers.
A lot of legit photographers were there and my favorite was this old man who had all his gear and looked so pro. He was in this one spot for a long time trying to get a shot of a few birds flying over the flowers.
And this little grandma was so cute!
I bought some dango as a snack and not only did it look rad with the flowers in the background but they tasted amazing as well! There were also a few wedding shoots happening and all I wanted to do was follow them around and take pics of the beautiful kimonos with the flowers!
From a certain angle it looked like the people were floating in a sea of yellow!
I met up with my friends, the Lims, and we walked over to the tea house area to check it out.
Nathalie had the brilliant idea to frame some flowers! stunning right!?
The exhibit was a bunch of paper flowers (mixed with a few real ones) and it was pretty fancy and VERY TOKYO. Loved spending time with friends being inspired by such beauty!
And lastly, following my recent flower inspiration, I bought a new phone case. It's forsure the girliest phone case I've ever owned and a few 16-year-old-freepeople-loving-high-school-girls must have the same one as me but it felt very fitting for this season in life so I considered it worth it!
GOAL FOR APRIL : SEE AS MANY FLOWERS AS POSSIBLE AND PRAISE GOD FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE!

The latest Audi A5 Sportback was made available in the UK in 2012 and in anticipation of this we designed and produced a set of car mats for the updated model, and it forms one of a three car A5 range that regularly sees 5-star ratings next to its name.
Car enthusiasts have been singing the praises of the Audi A5 Sportback. With its spacious interior and sporty lines the new model is an executive saloon with the flexibility of a large boot, four doors and the looks and feel of a sporty hatchback.
Audi claims that there is no other car to rival this exclusive design from the wheels to my car mats, although the Mercedes C Class and BMW 4 Series come close. There is a lot to like about the Sportback including the well built spacious interior, a choice of engines and not least of all its stylish good looks.
There are five specs, going from the entry level up to the high performance S5. All of them feel sporty due to the driving position which is low down. It is controlled rounding corners with responsive brakes and steering that make you feel fully in charge. The ride is firm which can be uncomfortable at times when encountering bumps in the road but as with all Audis you always feel secure and safe inside the cabin.
The wrap around dash is just one of the features that make this car so good to look at inside. One minor niggle is the position of the pedals. The car was designed for Europe but in right hand drive models the pedals are offset making it slightly uncomfortable. Likewise, the sleek looks do compromise the amount of head room in the back of the vehicle.
The engines are extremely quiet but this also highlights an issue with the wing mirrors which cause wind noise.
Audi is on the rise again in the reliability surveys climbing 5 places in the last year from 15th to 10th. The quality build and first rate robust feel is in great evidence in the model. Safety features that are included in all A5 models are lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, front and side air bags and stability control. When fully tested it is expected to receive the full five star rating.
The boot space in the A5 is spacious and will hold 980 litres of luggage with the seats folded down. The boot is wide and easy to load thanks to the innovative shape. Audi has changed the layout from a four seater to a five making the new model more practical.
There is a good amount of legroom and plenty of cubbies for storage inside the cabin. This desirable new A5 Sportback is not the cheapest hatchback but is so well equipped it is worth paying the higher price for a quality Audi, and with new prices starting from just £23,000 there is still value to be found if you shop around for the best deal.

With Hurricane Sandy forcing many towns in the northeast to postpone Halloween, it seems worth pondering a permanent change. Halloween’s connection to All Saints’ Day or a particular religious event is really only academic. Functionally, the holiday would make a lot more sense for everyone if it occurred on Saturday.
I’d suggest the last Saturday in October would be the best time to celebrate, although timing it with the first Saturday in November and the changing of the clocks could work too. Many parties and celebrations take place on the weekend anyway so why not do the same with the whole holiday? Parents that work either have to take off or take their children trick or treating after they get home from work when it’s already dark out in most of the country. More people would be home to give out candy as well, and if families prefer a different celebration, organizing or attending a party is much easier on a Saturday afternoon.
Our second day in Amsterdam started with a hop-on, hop-off Museum line canal cruise. We rode the canal boat to the Van Gogh museum, enjoying the view and the automated audio guide along the way. Between the hotel and the boat pick-up location we picked up coffee and liege waffles to eat. This was our first encounter with the reluctance Europe has with the eat on the run mentality that’s so prevalent in New York. We saw a shop with a display case of baked goods and figured that’d work, but the waiter seemed like he kept expecting us to sit and relax and kick our feet up. Awkwardly, we departed with our goods.
There are many terrific places to drink beer in Amsterdam, and I was barely there long enough to sample very many of them, but one of the ones that really stood out was Arendsnest. This is a beer ‘bar’ (they’re called cafes in Amsterdam) on a quiet street specializing in Dutch beers. As of this posting Google maps is suggesting it’s closed, but I promise that’s not the case.
Arendsnest has quite a selection of beers written on chalkboards on the walls. It seemed they had a decent bottle selection as well, and some of them looked liked they might be extremely local, sporting simple white paper labels that looked like the product of a small outfit, but alas there was no bottle list.
Now, it would’ve been helpful to have some styles listed next to the beers. I’ve taken for granted how much I know about US beer sometimes, and being able to recognize beers and styles. In Amsterdam I was barely able to pronounce most of the beers on this beer list. I had three.
First I had an Ongelovige Thomas by Jopen. It looks like that means Pagan, or unbeliever. It’s listed as an American Strong Ale and at 10% ABV. It struck me by the way it was listed as a limited release type beer, so I selected it. It was good but not great, a little too strong on that intense alcohol taste for me.
For my second beer I selected an Xtreem Centennial by Bierbrouwerij De Eeem. Much like I did at Brouwerij ‘t IJ I was drawn in by the hops name that I recognized. This one was clearly an IPA. This was probably the best beer I had in Amsterdam, although I’m clearly partial to India Pale Ales. It had just the right amount of spicy bitterness and was a very well executed beer.
Shortly after I ordered that one, the guy next to me asked the bartender for advice and he happened to mention a rye ale. I tend to really like rye beers, so I resolved to get a third beer, and for it to be the Den Dorstige Tijger by Ramses Bier. It’s a cool name for a beer anyway, which translates to the thirsty tiger. Of course, both untappd and ratebeer list it as an IPA, with no mention of rye so I must’ve have misunderstood. I was particularly disappointed by this one anyway, which tasted pretty watery and weak to me with a sort of blah bitterness to it.
So that was Arendsnest, a very cool cafe in Amsterdam specializing in local beers. In retrospect I could’ve chosen a better subset of beers, but I’m still glad to have checked the place out and recommend it for any beer fans heading to The Netherlands.
We arrived in Amsterdam on Friday afternoon, after taking a Red Eye from New York. First impression: Yowzah that’s a lot of bikes!
Amsterdam is a pretty cool city. We started the afternoon after checking in by walking around the place and checking out the canals. It was a little quiet at first, once we walked away from the transit hub at Centraal Station near where we were staying. Friday afternoon is not a place you expect to be bustling with people necessarily, but when you’re used to New York City quiet streets in the middle of the day are odd.

I found this story on Houston’s local news website.
POCATELLO, Idaho — An eastern Idaho judge who lost patience with the disruptive behavior of a defendant ordered court officials to tape the man’s mouth shut with duct tape during a court hearing.The unusual move was ordered by 6th District Judge Peter D. McDermott during a probation violation hearing for Nicklas Frasure, 23.
He is accused of violating his probation by not taking prescribed medication. During the hearing, witnesses told the judge that Frasure’s behavior had been strange and erratic since his release from the state hospital. They also said he has not been taking his medication and has been consuming alcohol, factors also contributing to mood and emotional swings.
Probation officer Julie Guiberson testified that Frasure is a threat to himself and others. During Monday’s hearing, Frasure interrupted the proceedings with repeated verbal outbursts and unusual behavior and ignored several orders from McDermott to restrain himself. After another series of outbursts, McDermott told bailiffs to silence Frasure. The bailiffs then found a roll of duct tape, tore off a piece and put it over Frasure’s mouth, according to the Idaho State Journal.
“He’s obviously not mentally competent,” Frasure’s lawyer Kent Reynolds told the judge. An Associated Press call for comment, left with the Idaho Judicial Council, was not immediately returned Tuesday. The council investigates all complaints filed against Idaho judges. The American Civil Liberties of Idaho refrained, for now, from commenting on McDermott’s decision to silence Frasure. “The ACLU of Idaho cannot comment on the specifics of this case,” said Monica Hopkins, executive director. “However, on one hand judges have a right to keep order in their court and on the other the defendants have a right to assist in their own defense and be present at trial. Our hope is that judges employ the least restrictive manner of keeping order in their courts.” At the end of the hearing, the judge ordered bailiffs to remove the gag and said he hoped Frasure’s condition would improve with being under state custody. Frasure responded, “You want to arm wrestle?” as he was led out of the courtroom by bailiffs. Frasure was convicted of felony theft in 2008, but the judge retained jurisdiction for sentencing depending on Frasure’s response to treatment.
In October, Frasure was released from a state mental hospital in Blackfoot. Earlier in the hearing, Reynolds had asked the judge to order a mental competency evaluation for Frasure. McDermott said he would consider the request, but did not immediately rule on it. McDermott placed Frasure under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Department of Correction. He is being held in the Bannock County Jail awaiting transfer to a state facility. Officials, citing privacy rules, declined to say where he would be transferred.

After this you can consider yourself a SiteMesh Adept and using SiteMesh for real world websites.
Building upon Start Using SiteMesh we will add an image to the decorator file basic-theme.jsp.
First download this image taken from the Darpuke Template or use your own image file and place it in the decorators folder.
It is not obvious, but the working directory for the page being loaded is not decorators. When hours.jsp or menu.jsp is being loaded the working directory is WebContent/data.
As such, full paths for must be used when referring to external files in decorator files.
However, if you ever decide to change your context root (that is /cafemirabeau) you must update your decorator files accordingly. Luckily the idea of using full paths for global resources is common and there are a number of options.
As of version 2.0 JSP technology now includes support for EL (Expression Language) which dynamically generates the context root.
Line 11 uses the EL variable to generate the context root based on the web application.

No matter what your idea of a perfect holiday might be, Mauritius is one of those places which simply has to find its way onto your bucket list. It’s the kind of island we grow up dreaming about - picture-perfect in every way, from its long white sand beaches to its sparkling turquoise seas… but in actual fact, this is far from a place for just laying back, relaxing, and feeling like all is well in the world (although there’s plenty of time for that, too).
Here at Sanwin, we’re more than a little in love with Mauritius. Every trip here opens up a world of exotic possibility, and whether you fancy marooning yourself on some far flung corner of this tiny island and living out your Robinson Crusoe fantasies, or getting involved with all the amazing activities it has to offer, it’s a place that will haunt your dreams forever. What’s more, with all that gorgeous coastline, and a plethora of luxury hotels, beach bars, and restaurants to explore, it’s also the perfect place to show off your stylish beachwear, too!
We’ve put together a list of eight reasons to spend your next vacation on Mauritius. It could have been a list of 10,000 reasons… but we’ve whittled it down to a more easily digestible number. Read on to find out more, and start preparing the escapist holiday of a lifetime!
If you love nothing more than diving into clear blue waters, and losing yourself in a magical world of brightly coloured fish and the serenity of the deep, then Mauritius is the place for you. Within easy reach of most of the top resorts, you can find amazing diving sites with centuries-old shipwrecks, which are now teeming with life and all kinds of treasures. If diving isn’t your thing, then there’s still plenty to explore on the waves: sunset boat tours (in traditional Mauritian boats) are popular with couples, and we can’t think of a more romantic or blissful way to finish the day!
You don’t need to go under the water to have some amazing marine life encounters in Mauritius. Tamarin Bay is home to plenty of dolphin and whale-spotting companies, who’ll take you out for the day to the spots where some of nature’s most magnificent creatures like to hang out. There will be plenty of opportunity to hop off the boat and take a swim in the magnificent ocean, too, so be sure to take your Sanwin swimwear with you!
From the riotous spice markets to the vibrant beach bars, and from the emerald sea to the buzzing town centres, Mauritius is a real feast for the eyes. Colour means a lot to the people of this island, and you’re never far from somewhere which really tantalises the senses. To get a deeper understanding of why this is, head to the village of Charmerel. Here, you’ll find one of nature’s most photogenic landscapes, where seven layers of sand in all the colours of the rainbow naturally occur side by side. It’s truly mind-blowing, and adds to the overall dream-like atmosphere that Mauritius constantly provides.
If you want a truly unique swimming experience, you need to head over to the Grand Bassin (known locally as the Ganga Talao); a gorgeously picturesque lake right in the centre of an extinct volcano. Legend has it that this lake is filled with the magical healing waters of the River Ganges, and if that wasn’t enough, it’s also home to a towering statue of Lord Shiva, which is actually the 2nd tallest statue in the world! It’s a beautiful place to swim, relax, and get back to nature.
There is no shortage of beautiful, tiny, hidden islands around Mauritius, but one of the most spectacular is Iles Aux Aigrettes, a nature reserve which has been protected since the 1960s. You can take a boat out there to check out exactly what makes it so special, and even a little time spent around its golden shores is a truly magical experience. Jutting from the shimmering waves like a coral-coated jewel, this island is home to some of the rarest and most amazing species on earth, such as the Mauritius giant tortoise and the pink pigeon.
We generally think of Mauritius as an island typified by utter serenity and isolation, and if that’s what you’re looking for, you won’t be disappointed by a trip there. However, every holiday to Mauritius needs to involve some time spent in Port Louis, the bustling, vibrant, effervescent island capital. The colonial French architecture now plays host to a wide variety of luxury hotels, and restaurants serving some of the finest, freshest, and most delicious seafood on earth.

In today’s world of recession, cutbacks, and business closures, can we really say that the old adage, “employees are our most important resource” still rings true?
Should we as managers actually care about the quality of life for our employees, and if so, what can we actually do about it? We can argue that now, more than ever, we should invest time and commitment in supporting our team of workers and believe that achieving a positive outcome for everyone’s benefit is not rocket science.
But what are the issues and how do we find out what areas need improvement? It would be easy to generalize around key themes often associated with employee welfare – things like increasing pressure to deliver in a climate of reduced resources often hit the headlines. We also often hear about the challenges of balancing a successful career with the needs of families. And then there are practical things which staff members need like support with healthcare, dental, life insurance and IRAs. This can extend to emotional and intellectual needs with mentoring, support, counseling services to support employee growth and even academic development by encouraging employees to get their masters degree in an area like management.
The starting point surely must be knowing and understanding the needs of our staff. Company surveys, whether formal or informal, focus group discussions and one to one talks with individual employees are all effective ways of finding out if there are serious issues to address. Being involved in the development and delivery of solutions to deal with these challenges will also empower employees, making them feel part of the change.
This sort of information will also help shape solutions. Hans Selye, one of the pioneers of stress theory once said that, “Adopting the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a positive one.” In other words, giving employees the tools to increase their resilience can adjust their perspective in relation to particular events both in and outside work.
We, as employers, would do well to heed these words and recognize that we can help employees by managing conflicting demands and promoting greater flexibility for them in how tasks are delivered.
An approach which demonstrates that “we are all in this together,” but does not remove the onus on the leader; can contribute to a better quality of life for our teams. The bottom line is that this commitment to enhancing quality of life can and will lead to more job satisfaction and in turn to greater productivity; so it is an area we should see as our top priority. We really can say that regardless of what is happening in the wider business environment, our employees are still our most important resource.

Despite fierce pushback from housing and financial industry groups, interest in a plan to use local governments' eminent domain power to purchase underwater mortgages is picking up steam.
The controversial plan, developed by Mortgage Resolution Partners in San Francisco and in the adoption stage in San Bernardino County, has attracted serious attention from officials in Berkeley and Chicago.
Noting that "some county jurisdictions have used forms of eminent domain to take over the mortgage to enable homeowners to stay in their own homes," the Berkeley City Council was scheduled to vote Tuesday night to request a meeting with Alameda County authorities "to look at what legal options can be adopted to minimize the devastating consequences of foreclosures."
"Historically, eminent domain has been a sword hanging over property owners' heads by local authorities," said Councilman Kriss Worthington, who wrote the request. "This time, authorities are saying to property owners, if you want, we'll use eminent domain to help you."
Worthington said two members of the Oakland City Council have already volunteered to be part of a meeting with Alameda County authorities. "I don't know if it will hold up in court, but it's a very interesting concept," he said.
Meanwhile, two Chicago aldermen last week called for a hearing on the idea, which is being looked at by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel. More than 500,000 homeowners in Chicago and Cook County were underwater in the first quarter, according to real estate research firm CoreLogic.
Under their powers of eminent domain, called "compulsory purchase" in other countries, local authorities would buy up privately held mortgages that are underwater, reduce the amount owed, and transfer the mortgage to a new entity. Mortgage Resolution Partners, acting as consultants and go-betweens for municipalities, would get a $4,500 fee per transaction.
Only homeowners who are up to date on their payments would be eligible, and the plan would not apply to government-backed mortgages held by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which account for 60 percent of U.S. home loans.
Real estate and private investor groups have responded with alarm. The American Securitization Forum, a lobbying organization in New York, sent out an alert to members last week informing them of the moves in Berkeley and Chicago.
A legal memo written for the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association said the plan "suffers from multiple legal and procedural defects, including defects arising under the U.S. Constitution and the California Constitution." Others have said the private lenders would avoid doing business in municipalities using eminent domain.
That drew the ire of Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, who said in a statement last week that "special interest groups need to back off."
Newsom, who was initially skeptical, said in an interview, "Something big like this has to happen, or we'll have another 10 years of millions of homeowners being underwater.
"It's still the biggest drag on the California economy - and the nation's - and we've just been nibbling around the edges. I'm very supportive of the idea, although I understand the concerns and the friction. This will be new to many people."
So far, little has been heard from other state officials or lawmakers. "I don't think many politicians are going to touch this one," said a Sacramento source.
Meanwhile, San Bernardino County is pushing ahead. It has formed a Joint Exercise of Power Authority with the cities of Fontana and Ontario, the first step in making the plan real. Greg Devereaux, the county's chief executive officer, said he anticipates the board of supervisors will put out formal requests for proposals, from Mortgage Resolution Partners and others, next month.
"We've got an enormous problem here," Devereaux said. "One out of every 2 mortgages (150,000 homes) are underwater. Eighteen percent of privately held mortgages are in default. Unemployment is over 12 percent, in some areas more than 30 percent.
"We think this plan can help. Any plan that can help prevent more negative impacts on our neighborhoods is a win."
In other news, Federal Housing Finance Agency acting Director Edward DeMarco turned down calls Tuesday to reduce principal payments on loans backed by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.
Principal reduction "would not make a meaningful improvement in reducing foreclosures in a cost-effective way for taxpayers."
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner called the decision not "the best for the country."
"Five years into the housing crisis, millions of homeowners are still struggling to stay in their homes, and the legacy of the crisis continues to weigh on the market," he said.
Geithner, however, rejected the eminent domain idea when congressional Democrats raised the idea a couple of years ago, and the White House is reportedly not keen on it either.

The GreenSol© A100 Fire Extinguisher is based on the environment friendly SFE Powdered Aerosol technology, listed on the USEPA Halon Alternatives SNAP list as Powdered Aerosol A.
The A100 model is designed to extinguish and provide extinguishment for Class A (solid fuel), B (liquid and gas fuel), and C (electrical) fires in defined enclosures. The extinguishing agent concentration required for each type of fire and volume to be protected is determined by the solid SFE agent con-tent in the GreenSol© unit and the number of units per system. The extinguishing agent delivered by the GreenSol© system is a pow-dered aerosol created in-situ by a chemical reaction taking place in a non-pressurized container, delivering dry powder small particles (1-5 microns) floating in inert gases. The GreenSol© A100 unit produces large amounts of powdered aero-sol, designed to extinguish a fire in a 1.0m3 closed volume. The system is compatible with standard detection and control systems and can be installed inside or outside the protected volume.

For those interested in religious tourism, a visit to Laerma, 58 km from Rhodes, is a must. The Byzantine monastery of the Taxiarchis Michail tou Tharri (Archangel Michael) has remarkable wall paintings dating from the 17th century.
Richly endowed by nature, the traditional village of Apollonas sits at the foot of Profitis Ilias. The Folklore Museum here houses a collection of traditional costumes and utensils and contains much interesting information about the local inhabitants’ lifestyle.


text: It doesn’t look much from the outside but behind the black exterior lies a beer aficionado’s dream, Monk’s is a celebration of what Belgium does best and features one of the most extensive and delicious collection of beers in the city including a number of enticing rarities and microbrews. The well-informed staff are on hand to guide the novice drinker through the maze of often unfamiliar names and flavours. They have their own Flemish Sour Ale on tap as well as the wonderfully named Delirium Tremens and a tart raspberry beer ß-plus a whole host of others. Should you not want to drink on an empty stomach they also serve an array of cheeses and meaty things (as well as the inevitable moules frites) to compliment the liquid pleasures. It’s a deservedly popular place and it can be difficult to find a spot to sit, or indeed stand, on particularly busy nights.

Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) regional editor Miranda Patrucic has won this year's prestigious Knight International Award. Given by the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ), the award acknowledges excellent reporting that has had major impact.
Miranda Patrucic (Photo: Nađa Berberović Dizdarević)With coverage ranging from the Balkans to Central Asia, Bosnian journalist Miranda Patrucic has helped expose corruption in these regions and alter international policy and practice. Her work on Montenegro’s President Milo Djukanovic has created a new awareness of organized crime in the country and has prompted the European Parliament to call for investigations; Montenegro is currently a candidate for European Union status. Her work on Swedish and Norwegian-Russian telecom firms has led to parliamentary hearings, the resignations of CEOs, criminal investigations and a settlement of nearly US$ 800 million.
Working on the Panama Papers project, she helped expose a web of secret companies in offshore havens allegedly designed to hide the wealth of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev's family. She was instrumental in the teams that won OCCRP the European Press Prize, Global Shining Light awards and the Tom Renner Award.
Miranda Patrucic shares the honor with the investigative team at Aristegui Noticias, a Mexican news site led by one of the country's best-known journalists, Carmen Aristegui. "These investigative journalists have changed the world by revealing shady deals involving top officials," said ICFJ President Joyce Barnathan. "They stand out for their breakthrough reporting."
Ismayilova, an award-winning Azerbaijani reporter who exposed the corruption of the ruling Aliyev family, has been in prison in Baku since her arrest on Dec. 5, 2014.
While Patrucic has won numerous international awards for her stories, the Knight Fellowship is a direct recognition of her individual work and achievements. She joins OCCRP’s Executive Director, Paul Radu from Romania, and Russian colleague Roman Anin of Novaya Gazeta, who are prior recipients.
“This is really one of the most prominent awards given to journalists around the world for the quality of their work as well as for the courage they display in doing that work,” said Patrick Butler of the International Center for Journalists. “We get nominations from around the world and there were almost 300 nominations this year. It was extremely competitive, but Miranda really stood out.
While Butler explained that it was the body of investigative work and its quality that swayed the judges to pick Patrucic for the award, he noted that the TeliaSonera bribery investigation and her work on The Khadija Project struck a chord.
Contest judge Lynette Clemetson, director of the Knight Wallace Fellowships and Livingston Awards, said that Patrucic’s work “jumped out” at her.
OCCRP operates on the principle that, given the right resources and mentoring, many more reporters in the Balkan region and the Commonwealth of Independent States can reach their full potential.
"Miranda has quietly had more impact on world affairs than any other journalist in Bosnia and Herzegovina that I know. It's time she was recognized as maybe Bosnia's best contribution to investigative reporting today," said Drew Sullivan, OCCRP’s editor and co-founder. "Bosnian reporters at OCCRP and its local partner CIN (the Center for Investigative Reporting in Bosnia) are making a huge contribution to international media that has not yet been recognized. This is a great start."
The award, which is supported by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, will be presented at the November Annual Dinner of the ICFJ.

The mountains and forest provide a stunning backdrop to Lough Veagh and with such calmness; the lake reflects its surroundings like glass.
Lough Veagh is 5km long and 70m deep in some parts, and is one of the bigger lakes in Glenveagh National Park. Adjacent to the castle and surrounded by oak, birch, rowan holly, hazel, yew and aspen trees, the lake is one of the most scenic in Donegal.

Yet again the website is up and running and it can greet the world around it (the Internet).
It has come a long way to get to this point (yet again I’d have to add), but don’t worry. This time it is for good.
I first started off with a simple Drupal 6 installation which was ok for a start. It meant I had to SFTP to my site each time I wanted to unpack and install a new module or theme; it eventually became such a pain to do since Drupal 7 was released. I mean, really, who wants to SFTP to the website each time if you can achieve the same results from a few clicks on the CMS interface? And that’s where the problems started, of course I will want to upgrade and use the new Drupal 7 interface over my current Drupal 6 interface.
After my upgrade to Drupal 7 I was faced with an issue where Drupal 7 keeps on asking me for my FTP detailsL. This was somewhat disappointing as I did not have any FTP service installed on my server. I did eventually install ProFTPd to my server and configured a dummy user account for use with my Drupal 7 installation and things were looking up againJ.
After running the website for a while I decided to help a friend out by hosting they’re website on my server by means of Drupal Multi-hosting, and so yet again there came a snag. My initial website would work perfectly with the FTP user details but for some or other reason the second website did not accept these details. It was then suggested that I use WordPress and create a Network of Sites.
And so, here we are today, the WordPress Network is up and running and Domain Mapping is enabled. Site number one and two are up and running with all modules centrally maintained in the WordPress Network. I really hope this will be the way forward. I must say I was somewhat surprised to see that I can post to my blog directly from MS Word 2012. Now I can post without having to go on to the website itself, it’s so easy.
I’m sure posting will come easier and more frequent. Hope to see you soon.

Would you know what to do if you grandchild was hurt or stopped breathing? Horrible things to think about but we do need to think about it.
I deliver among my other first aid courses, baby and children’s first aid to parents, grand-parents and parents-to-be and guardians.
My courses cover Cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR), recovery position, choking, nosebleeds, meningitis and sepsis. I also check if there is a personal topic that anyone attending my baby first aid course would like to know about or learn more about, perhaps a medical condition their child might have.
If your grandchild was choking, would you know what to do to remove the object? I can teach you to use back blows to help remove the object. When to call an ambulance or seek advice from a professional.
Our baby first aid courses are aimed to deliver new skills in first aid or to enhance pre-existing skills, which need refreshing.
Visit our website www.abcsavealifefirstaidtraining.co.uk or visit us on Facebook.
If you can attend a class like Sarah’s that’s great and in the meantime, Sarah shares with us her CPR advice for an unresponsive child.

From combing through job boards to impressing the hiring manager in an interview, here’s how to navigate the job application process. WSU accounting graduates have an extremely strong track record of obtaining career positions in public accounting firms, consulting firms, financial institutions, high tech and start-up companies, manufacturing, agribusiness, communication, government, and health care organizations.
Michael Minnis, associate professor of accounting, studies the role of accounting information in allocating investment efficiently by both management and capital providers, the use of financial reporting in mitigating information opacity issues of privately held firms, and the interplay within management in the production and use of financial information.
Accounting shows that they are spending their money wisely, so every business, manufacturing and banking depends on it. In fact, a huge business with several branches and tons of employees would simply be in disarray if they didn’t have accounting systems to prove how they spend their money or how.
If, during the performance of his duties, an accounting officer becomes aware on any contravention of a provision of the Close Corporations Act, he must describe the nature of the contravention in his report, irrespective of whether the contravention is material.
GAAP is a set of standards related to balance sheet identification, outstanding share measurements and other accounting issues, and its standards are based on double-entry accounting, a method which enters each expense or incoming revenue in two places on a company’s balance sheet.

Cooked meals are prepared on the premises and offer the children a wide variety of healthy foods. There is a vegetarian choice each day. The meals are eaten in the hall and the current cost is £2.00 a day or £10.00 a week. To help with administration and security we request that all dinner money is paid at the beginning of the week.
Information and forms about free school meals can be obtained from the Education Office at the Civic Centre.
Children can bring their own packed lunches. They are eaten alongside the children taking cooked meals in the hall. We ask that food is brought in plastic containers and for safety reasons we do not allow hot liquids in flasks. As part of our healthy school programme we also ask that children do not bring chocolate or fizzy drinks.
We do not allow the eating of sweets at school. Children in the Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 receive a free piece of fruit or vegetable each day as part of the government’s national scheme. Children in Key Stage 2 may bring fruit to eat at playtime. A Healthy Tuck Shop is available for them and fruit costs 15p.
Please note that it is the parents’/carers’ responsibility to ensure that their child is adequately fed. This can mean providing the money for a school meal in advance, providing a packed lunch on the day or taking the child home/off the school premises to be fed.
The government gives schools money to help children from lower income families do their best. This funding is called “Pupil Premium”. For every child registered, our school receives £1,320 from September 2016. With this money we are able to purchase new resources and enhance our provision which the school could not otherwise afford.
In order for the school to receive this additional funding parents must register their child for a Free School Meal if they are eligible. This includes any parents of pupils in Reception, Year 1 and 2 who now automatically receive a free school meal.
If this applies to you, please complete our free school meals application form and return it to the address shown.
If you stop receiving one of the qualifying benefits; or you stop being responsible for the child/children concerned; or your Tax Credit entitlement changes, you MUST inform the Council’s Benefit Section immediately.
