Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park (Boston, MA)
By New England Nomad

Location: 105 Atlantic Ave, Boston, MA
Hours: Open daily sunrise to sunset
Size/Trail Difficulty: 4.5 acres/easy
Parking: There is street parking and several parking garages in the area
Handicapped Accessible: Yes
Dog Friendly: Yes
Website: Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park
Highlights: statue of Christopher Columbus, memorial, scenic, fountain, trellis, family friendly
Although he is not from the area, Christopher Columbus can be considered an adopted son of the North End, a once, and still somewhat, largely Italian neighborhood (although Columbus may have been more likely Spanish they will still claim him).
Dedicated in 1974, Christopher Columbus Park is a family friendly park with open spaces for tanning, reading or just sitting and enjoying a very summer-like day as was the case during my two visits. There are also wonderful views at the park.
The park offers beautiful views of the harbor. Harbor boats can be seen coming and going on their scheduled trips.
The views from the waterfront are very pretty.
A statue of the explorer who the park was named after is located along the trellis.
The 6x3x2 (12 feet tall in total if you include the base) monument is made out of white Carrara marble, the same marble that is mined in Carrara, Italy. It is the very same marble from which Michelangelo sculpted the statues "Pieta," "Moses," and "David." There appears to be ropes and a piling with a float on it by his legs. He is clutching a book or manuscript and a dagger is attached to his belt. The statue was designed by Andrew J. Mazzola and it was fabricated by Norwood Monumental Works in 1979.
A fountain dedicated to Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy and next to the Rose Kennedy Garden, is a peaceful place to sit and watch the water.
Or, you can use it to cool down like Teagan a 6 month old Golden Retriever.
Lilly, an 8 year old Golden Retriever, didn't like the fountain as much as Teagan but she still liked the park. I love how Golden retrievers always seem to look like they are smiling. Probably because they are.
The Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Garden, dedicated to the matriarch of the Kennedy family, has a wide variety of flowers.
But, the pretty flowers are not only located in the garden. There are beautiful flowers throughout the park.
The other main attraction, beside the statue of Columbus, is the trellis. Ivy and white lights are attached to the trellis. During the holiday season, blue lights are attached to it.
During my visit, there was a scavenger hunt by the Dragon Of Bostonshire. This lady was giving a speech with hints for all of the participants.
There's lots of entertainment at the park. This musician played a heartbreaking instrumental of Vincent by Don McLean.
Another more famous musician was playing at the park during my visit. I could write a blog post just about him. The most interesting thing about Keytar is his identity. Or the mystery behind his identity. Keytar Bear is a local celebrity. But, little else is known about him. Keytar plays at a variety of different locations in the Boston area, unannounced. You could see him at a train station (I've seen him at South Station) or any other venue in the Boston area, particularly during the warmer seasons. In fact, it's so normal to see him people really aren't fazed by his presence. No one knows what he (I am pretty sure I read the musician is a male in an article) looks like or his name. But, everyone knows him when they see him.
If music isn't your thing, there are other ways to entertain yourself like a game of hop scotch.
Or, you could climb a tree.
There is also a memorial dedicated to the 9 marines from Massachusetts who were killed in the Beirut bombing (220 U.S. Marines, 241 US Service personnel and 305 people in total were killed that day by the bombers). It's easy to miss if you don't know it is there. It is next to the children's playground and close to the Average Joe's restaurant. The memorial is easy to miss if you don't know it's there. In fact, I made a second trip to find it after I missed it the first time.
It always strikes me when I read the names and ages of just how young these soldiers are when they die. They had so much more to live for.
The nine Marines from Massachusetts names are inscribed on the memorial. They are:
LCP Bradley J. Campus – Lynn, 1962-1983
LCP Michael J. Delvin – Westwood, 1962-1983
SGT MAJ Frederick B. Douglass – Cataumet, 1936-1983
CPT Sean R. Gallagher – North Andover, 1952-1983
SGT Edward J. Gargano – Quincy, 1962-1983
CPT Richard J. Gordon – Somerville, 1961-1983
CPT Michael S. Haskell – Westborough, 1950-1983
SGT Steven B. LaRiviere – Chicopee, 1961-1983
LCP Thomas S. Perron – Whitinsville, 1964-1983
Below is a video of Keytar Bear playing his keytar with a background track. His music is very chill.

Grieving Gold Star Mother Statue (Manchester, NH)
Date Visited: August 7, 2016
Location: Charles R. Stanton Plaza, in front of the JD's Tavern and Radisson hotel, 700 Elm St # 1, Manchester, NH
Hours: Open daily, 24 hours a day
Parking: You can usually find metered off street parking
I found this statue to be timely considering some of the discourse these days. The Grieving Gold Star Mother statue located, appropriately, across the street from the Veterans Memorial Park at Charles R. Stanton Plaza in front of the Radisson and JD's Tavern at 700 Elm St, Manchester, NH, is a tribute to all mothers and families who have lost a loved one at war.
The Grieving Gold Star Mother shows the teary eyed mom clutching a telegram, presumably with the notice of her son's death. A potted planted lies knocked over in front of a photo of her son.
The 407 pound bronze statue, sculpted by Andrew Chernak, was said to depict a mother from World War II because that is the war that had the most fatalities. However, the Gold Star Mothers group was formed by Grace Darling Seibold during World War I when her son, George Vaughn Seibold, was lost (his body was never identified). In an effort to console herself and other mothers who had lost a child during the war, Grace created the group. The group not only consoled each grieving mother. They also dedicated themselves to doing community service and visiting wounded service members.
There are two Grieving Gold Star Mother statues in the U.S. The first Grieving Gold Star Mother statue is located in Carmel, New York. There is also a Gold Star Mother and a Gold Star Father memorial with statues of each Gold Star parent in Clinton, Ohio.
Bricks with the names of all of the wars the United States have been involved in (Colonial and post Colonial times) have been placed in front of the statue. The list of conflicts and wars and the loss of lives involved in those actions are staggering.
The memorial in New Hampshire was erected in April 15, 2011.

Burnside Fountain (Worcester, MA)
Date Visited: March 19, 2016
Location: next to Worcester Common, 455 Main St.
Just outside of Worcester Common, at 455 Main St, sits an unusual monument. Also known as "Turtle Boy", the Burnside Fountain looks like a cross between a Roman sculpture and a high school prank gone wrong. But, this statue is no prank. It is a very real monument. In fact, it is a gift from Harriet Burnside, a philanthropist and the daughter of a prominent lawyer in Worcester; Samuel Burnside. In her will, Harriet donated $5,000 to the city to build a fountain in memory of her father. Harriet Burnside specifically requested the fountain be used as a drinking trough for horses and dogs.
Enter Charles Y. Harvey. Harvey was given the task of designing the fountain. For some reason that is still unknown, he chose a design called "boy with turtle". Henry Bacon, who also worked on the Lincoln Memorial, designed the basin.
In an interesting turn of events, Harvey would take his own life, claiming before doing so that the half finished sculpture was telling him to do so. Sherry Frye finished the sculpture. The statue was completed in 1912.
The bronze statue sits on a pink rectangular basin. The basin has four bowls, two on each side of the statue.
Despite the various interpretations, the statue is not meant to be as controversial. It was just meant to be a statue about a boy and his turtle. It was a simpler time.

Bronstein Park (Manchester, NH)
Date Visited: February 27, 2016
Location: Beech St, Manchester, New Hampshire (with access points on Union, St, Amherst St and Hanover St)
Cost: Free to the public
Although a statue that is dedicated to the veterans of the Spanish American War, the Boxer Rebellion and the Phillipine-American War, Bronstein Park celebrates a hero from another war.
Although "The Hiker" stands prominently at the street entrance to the park, Bronstein Park (formerly known as Hanover Square) is actually named after a corpsman who died in World War II; Dr. Ben Richard Bronstein, the first Manchester, New Hampshire, resident to die during the war. Dr Bronstein's brother, Maurice Bronstein, donated the memorial to the park in 1990.
The inscription on the memorial is hard to read in some parts. It states:
Dr. BEN RICHARD BRONSTEIN,
LIEUTENANT, MEDICAL CORPS,
aboard the destroyer
U.S.S. Jacob Jones
Lost in Action, February 28, 1942
First Naval Officer
From the State of New Hampshire
To have Sacrificed his life
in the fulfillment of his duty
in World War II."
Another memorial pays tribute to Dr. Bronstein's brother, Stephen Max Bronstein, who also served during the war.
"The Hiker" was originally sculpted by Theo Alice Ruggles Kitson in 1906. The original statue was made for the University of Minnesota. However, 50 copies were made of her statue and were distributed all over America. Manchester, New Hampshire was the recipient of one of the copies of her statue. The statue is made of bronze on a base of granite, of course.
The name "hiker" was a moniker the American soldiers in the Spanish American War and Philippine-American War gave themselves because of the long hikes they took in the jungle. Kitson said the hiker, "depicts a hero stripped of his parade uniform and shown as a soldier reacting to the challenges of the battlefield."
Leonard Sefing, Jr., a Spanish-American War veteran, was the model for the statue.
A close inspection of the statue shows a weary soldier clad in civilian type apparel.
An American flag stands in front of the memorial for Dr. Ben Bronstein.
One strange thing I noticed is a warning posted that prohibits people from hanging out at the park during school hours. So that is something to bear in mind if you do visit. I'm not sure why this restriction is in place. I can only imagine you would be the talk of the town in prison if you ever got convicted of it "Don't mess with that guy. He's in here for loitering." (I know it's probably just a fine)
Below are some additional photos of the park from different angles.

Stark Park (Manchester, NH)
Location: North River Rd, Manchester, NH
Parking: There was not a designated parking area per se but there are many places to park on the side of the paved road leading from the entrance.
Stark Park
New Hampshire isn't known as the "Live Free Or Die" state for no reason. The quote, which is said to have French origins and adorns license plates and other kitschy souvenirs, is directly attributed to General, and former New Hampshire resident, John Stark. It was at John Stark Park in Manchester, NH, that I found this historical tribute to the revolutionary warrior.
The remaining of the "live free or die…"quote is lesser known, yet just as poignant.
For someone who is so heroic and brave, General Stark is not someone who many of us are familiar with. But, heroic he is. As the plaque in front of his statue explains, after being kidnapped by a Native American tribe and eventually ransomed, Stark joined the American Revolution and became a general. His most notable achievement was in 1777 when he commanded his troops to prevent British troops and supplies from connecting with the main army in Saratoga, New York, which was considered a key point which led to the American victory in the war.
Crisp blue skies awaited me at the park. It almost felt fall-like. What struck me most about the park was how peaceful it was. The gazebo is a nice touch also. The statue of General Stark was sculpted by Richard Recchia in 1948. The park is one of the older parks in New Hampshire, dating back to 1893 (it is the second oldest park in Manchester).
General Stark his, wife and a few of their children are buried at the bottom of the hill from the entrance.
One of the interesting things about Stark Park is the loop behind the park. It's only about a quarter of mile and it is a great place to take your dog for a walk. But, there is a trail that branches off to a bridge and some other trails which eventually lead to the Heritage Trail. But, apart from some interesting trees and some wildlife, there isn't much on the trails. Most of them lead to residential areas. I walked most of the narrow trails as far as I could go before they ended, rather disappointingly, at roadways and residential areas.
The big payoff to walking the loop behind the park was meeting Bennie. Bennie is a Chinook which is the state dog of New Hampshire.

Plymouth Rock (Plymouth, MA)
Who would ever think people would travel from all over the country and all over the world just to see a rock? Yes, a rock. This is not just any rock, though.
The rumored landing spot of the Mayflower, Plymouth Rock is one of the more disappointing yet often visited sites south of Boston, MA.
Despite it's popularity, the rock at Plymouth Rock is not the actual rock the Mayflower struck. In fact, the rock has been said to have been moved at least three different times and the rock has been said to have been damaged several times, breaking in half at one point. Not only that, but the passengers of the Mayflower initially landed in Provincetown in Cape Cod.
While the rock itself probably isn't the actual rock the Mayflower struck upon its landing and it's not the actual initial landing spot of the Pilgrims, it is symbolic of the voyage the persistence of the people who landed there.
Located in walking distance of the Mayflower II, the rock is located at the bottom of a pit and protected by a fence.
The rock is located in a structure with pillar columns.
The harbor is usually teaming with activity.
There is also a monument located across the street from Plymouth Rock. The Pilgrim Mother was donated in 1921 to celebrate the Tercentenary of the Mayflower landing by the Daughters of the American Revolution.
I met Bo while I was visiting the memorial.

Hack, Slash & Two Smoking Goblins
by Bob V. G. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 07/17/2020 06:42:05
This is a fantasy gamebook solo adventure. It is six pages long and has 108 entries. It is on sale for $1.49. So, my only complaint is that it is a bit short. So, you are stuck in a dungeon and you are trying to get out. I explored three rooms, took some trap damage, and I eventually descended for 18 feet. At this point, I started using The Solo Adventurer's Toolbox. I found several monsters and a female human thief who was chained up. I was able to free her. On this level a total of ten rooms were explored and then we found the way out. I did enjoy the adventure.
Dangerous Denizens: The Monsters of Tellene
by Mark H. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/30/2018 16:52:57
A book that does what Kenzerco does really well: providing context to monsters, making them pop with personality and making them part of the Kingdoms of Kalamar, their setting. Lots of great ideas, though it's designed for the 3.5 game system, it's minable for material for other settings.
Aces & Eights: Shootist's Guide
by JD S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 05/08/2018 11:08:42
The product comes in two parts: a section contains new rules, noteworthy being the rules on mules (oddly left out of the core book) and expanded rules on horses, which was good. Production values were high, and the Big Game shot clock was an excellent add.
The second section a large variety of of new targete siloutess, and this is where the product fails miserably. First, sheer body count seemed to be the goal; why PCs would need the full tactical rules to shoot a rat, beaver, or a turkey is not clear.
But the biggest fasilure is that unlike the core book and free pack these silouettes are not simple line drawings, but ink cartridge killing art done in filled-in black and gray.
This feels like a pack of poorly-done targets added to errata to justify bulking up the price.
Aces & Eights: Gun Deck
Not a bad product, although they desperately need to include a blank card so users could add weapons.
They also used photos of some modern weapons, and had some serious typos, giving drastically wrong year models and mixing up calibers. But a little Paint fixed those problems.

I've been looking for rules lite, which this isn't, but tight. Love the time keeping battle mechanic. Combat is very detailed without being a bit clunky. This is the most professionally concise game mechanics I've seen. Use this core for your campaigns and you will not be disapointed.

DAWG: the RPG
by William L. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 04/14/2017 23:28:50
THis is a very neat game. To be clear, this is not dogs in waistcoats. This isn't "The Winds in the Willows" with talking animals stealing cars. This is playing dogs doing doggy things. You are defending your home, chasing cats, and running off strays. You are trying to please your human, or you are living the free life on the streets or out in the woods. It's a dog eat dog world...and you are striving to be top dog. The system itself has a nice level of complexity but is still easy to understand and quick to learn. It provides a wide range of types of dogs to play, and there is a great deal you can do to make your character unique. The book is not exactly beautiful, but it is very well laid out and nicely written. It has a tongue-in-cheek humor that comes across endearingly. I found myself chuckling at several points as I read it. I can see a lot of enjoyment from this game. So I recomemd going out and living a Dawg's life.
Dijishy: The City of History (HackMaster edition)
by James B. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 04/05/2016 11:35:08
A highly detailed city setting, that is largely system-neutral. Although the expanded Grand Library mechanics featured in another module would have been a great addition, alongside the expanded food, drink, and weaponry common to the area, and a few pages of adventure hooks and more information on the waterway system would also have been iseful, there is still a lot of detail in this release. It inspired an incredibly fun campaign, and for that I recommend it highly. Nowhere near as 'fantastic' as the other city guides - very mundane in all its developments, but... that isn't entirely a bad thing.
Kingdoms of Kalamar: Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands
by Carl P. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 06/18/2015 20:15:36
I am not really sure how to rate and review this product. My thought process varies on whether this is the first time one has come by this material.
For those who already own the physical copy the added material doesn't really make this worth while. The only really new stuff seems to be the whole Adventuring chapter which has the information that I would have loved to have read in the physical. Everything else seems mostly or closely the same.
For those who don't have the physical and this is the first time reading the material than its a 10 on the rating, it has a lot of interesting and useful and setting enhancing material.
Personally, for me, I am not entirely sure the purchase was necessary. I seemed to have only gotten one chapter out of it that is different from the book on my shelf. A chapter that I would most eagerly buy as a standalone rather than as a tiny part of the massive file which I won't use since I have the book. Because of this I am not sure it was a good purchase.

i enjoy seeing some of the old games, like 'Root of all Evil', restored on PDFs. The entire game package was included. The only minor problem was the pages of a gray background / edging. This does interfere with reading the information on the screen and describing details just cannot print out the maps very encomically - lots of ink printing that gray background / edging. But it is a good way to prevent abusing the low cost of the game.
Raid on Bokagna
by JK R. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 06/08/2014 06:27:46
A straight forward dungeon bash, with the only twist being that the inhabitants are gnomes rather than goblins or whatever. The scenario is written for 1st to 3rd level orc characters, but they could be anything, so long as they're evil. Change the gnomes to some other race, or tweak their alignments, and the PCs don't even have to be evil. (This would, naturally, require some alteration to the encounters, but to be honest, not very much.)
There is a page of advice at the end on how to play orcs, although it doesn't really address the question of 'evil' acts in play - orcs, it seems, aren't really all that different from some PCs, only a bit more cowardly.
It's all competently written up, well illustrated, and properly laid out. But at the end it's a dungeon bash no different from any other, and not quite as 'different' as it would like to be.
KoDT: Bundle of Trouble vol. 6
by Adrian S. [Featured Reviewer] Date Added: 05/22/2014 21:38:16
Bundle of Trouble Volume 6 continues the fine tradition set up by the previous strips. In this volume, the reader is treated to the progression of the 'Bag World' storyline resulting in B.A. facing a HackMaster Audit at the request of his players (in which Weird Pete interrogates his game notes), a return to the the previously defunct SpaceHack campaign, and a trick from Nitro Ferguson that has the Knight LARPing in a biker bar (with unsurprising results). As always, it is frightening to see how many of the Knights mirror my normal gaming group, but that has always been a part of the appeal. Jolly Blackburn has a keen eye for the hobby and it is wonderfully translated into this comic.
If you are unfamiliar with KoDT (shame on you!) or a long-time fan, these volumes represent excellent value not only in terms of price point, but also the enjoyment of reading these stories in full in one sitting.
HackMaster Player's Handbook
by Graham P. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 02/08/2014 16:20:32
Being new to HackMaster I'm finding this book quite easy to navigate and read, which is helping a lot with the complex rules. This is a superb game and I highly recommend it, even if the learning curve is a little steeper than others.
By the Sword: Dueling in Realms of Fantasy
by Nick S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 02/03/2014 10:12:43
By the Sword is a fun little book with some great information, HOWEVER the way they formatted it cramming each entry with Hackmaster AND D&D information makes it a little hard to read. I really wish they would have just split the book in half and had one half be dedicated to hackmaster and one to D&D.
That aside the information in the book was really great. I really enjoy mechanically how they handled fighting styles with each fighting style actually changing the way a character fights in a small way such as fighting styles which swap out strength for dex, rather that just having fighting styles give a dull +1 to hit or defense. Beyond the fighting styles I enjoyed that the book really explored dueling, not just with swords, but the whole concept from battles of wit to duels of words and how to fully bring them to life in your adventure. I'm normally critical of "How to play" guides which often come across as a way to pad out the page count in a book, but the content here is all very insightful and didn't belabor the point.
Despite formatting issues By the Sword is a great picked for Hackmaster giving lots of new great new options for martial types and bringing a ton to that game system but just a decent pick up for D&D.
Adventurer's Guide to Pixie-Fairies
The Adventurer's Guide to Pixie-Fairies was exactly what I wanted. Pixie-Fairies are a very unique race and due to their size and other factors are very different from the other races in Hackmaster. This book really explores that giving lots of information of fairie equipment, culture, fairie specific flaws and lot of other game information which was exactly what I picked it up for. I was further surprised however to find the book was also stuffed with information of pixie hybrids and other variant pixie creatures. I can't imagine playing a pixie-fairie without the AGtPF and would highly recommend it to anyone who plans to regularly play Hackmaster's most unique race.

Venezuela's opposition leader called on more members of the military to abandon the country's socialist government following Saturday's defection of a high-ranking general, while President Nicolas Maduro proposed holding early National Assembly elections that could potentially oust his challenger.
Maduro's call for early legislative voting is likely to intensify his standoff with rival Juan Guaido, who heads the opposition-controlled National Assembly and is demanding a new presidential election. Guaido declared himself Venezuela's legitimate ruler on Jan. 23, and has the support of Washington and most South American nations.
Speaking from behind a podium decorated with Venezuela's presidential seal, Guaido told supporters he would keep his opposition movement in the streets until Maduro stopped "usurping" the presidency and agreed to a presidential election overseen by international observers. On Saturday, tens of thousands of Venezuelans joined opposition protests against Maduro in Caracas and other cities.
Guaido called on "blocks" of the military to defect from Maduro's administration and "get on the side of the Venezuelan people."
"We don't just want you to stop shooting at protesters," Guaido said in a hoarse voice. "We want you to be part of the reconstruction of Venezuela."
He said that in the coming days, the opposition would try to move humanitarian aid into the country by land and sea along three border points, including the Colombian city of Cucuta. He described the move as a "test" for Venezuela's armed forces, which will have to choose if they allow the much needed aid to pass, or if they instead obey the orders of Maduro's government.
Maduro also dug in his heels, insisting he was the only president of Venezuela and describing Saturday's anti-government protests as part of a U.S.-led coup attempt.
"I agree that the legislative power of the country be re-legitimized and that we hold free elections with guarantees, and the people choose a new National Assembly," Maduro said at a pro-government demonstration in Caracas.
The socialist leader also had words for the administration of President Donald Trump which recently imposed sanctions on Venezuelan oil exports in an effort to undermine Maduro's main source of income and weaken his grip on power.
"Do you think you are the emperor of the world?" he asked Trump. "Do you think Venezuela is going to give up and obey your orders? We will not surrender."
The standoff comes amid what appears to be growing dissension among the ranks of Venezuela's powerful military.
Earlier Saturday, a Venezuelan air force general defected from Maduro's administration and called on his compatriots to participate in protests against the socialist leader's rule.
Gen. Francisco Yanez is the first high ranking officer to leave Maduro's government since Jan. 23, when Guaido declared himself the country's legitimate leader by invoking two articles of the Venezuelan constitution that he argues give him the right to assume presidential powers. He considers Maduro's election win fraudulent.
In a YouTube video, Yanez described Maduro as a dictator and referred to Guaido as his president. He didn't say if he was still in Venezuela or had left the country.
The officer confirmed in a phone call with The Associated Press, from a Colombian number, the veracity of his declaration and said he would not provide further statements until given authorization by "the commander-in-chief of the legal armed force, which is President Juan Guaido."
The military controls some of Venezuela's key assets including the state run oil company, and until now, its top brass has helped Maduro to survive rounds of mass protests in 2014 and 2017 by jailing activists and repressing protesters.
Yanez said in his video that "90 percent of the military" is against Maduro, but it is unclear how many will actively support the opposition.
Shortly after protests broke out against Maduro last week, Venezuela's most important regional military commanders and its defense minister issued a statement in support of Maduro, describing Guaido as a coup monger backed by Washington.
Venezuela's aerospace command of the armed forces shared a picture of Yanez on its Twitter account with the words "traitor" above it.
"We reject the declarations made by General Yanez who betrayed his oath of loyalty to our nation and chose to follow foreign plans," the command wrote.
On Saturday, Maduro said he was willing to sit down for talks with the opposition in an effort to promote national "harmony."
Zeleyka Muskus, a 53-year-old tax collector from Caracas, said the opposition was responsible for the country's current economic woes, saying they have staged years of protests that have gotten people injured and killed.
"Chavez is the love of my life," she said, referring to late Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez.
Meanwhile, streams of marchers from middle-class and poor neighborhoods walked to another part of the capital and said they were demanding Maduro's resignation and a transitional government that would hold new presidential elections in the South American country.
"We are around the corner from freedom," she said, banging on a pot and wearing a Venezuelan flag.


I was invited to Ireland this week to join a debate at the University College Cork's Philosophical Debating Society. The Debate was entitled: This House Believes That We Should Let Banks Go To the Wall, as in banks should die if they are failing.
I offered to take either side of the debate, as I can argue my way out of a paper bag, and they gave me the proposal: banks should fail, let them die! this house believes banks should go to the wall.
My rival was Ciaran Hancock, Business Affairs Correspondent with the Irish and UK Times, who opposed the motion.
I don't have time to report the whole debate so I'm just going to present my one-sided view.
Before I do so, please bear in mind that I could quite easily have argued either corner, so these views are not necessarily my own.
The problem with our world today is that the banks have over-leveraged and the implosion of credit they created is now our monster to tame. For each euro a bank owned, they generated ten or even a hundred euro's of debt. That debt mountain has to be eroded before the good times can roll again.
The real question therefore, is should that debt mountain be vanquished today or in years to come?
If your answer is for years to come, then support the government's actions and pump cash into the ailing system of finance. Give this debt mountain to the next generation, as in your kids.
On the other hand, if your answer is that we should swallow our medicine now in order to get over this headache, then we should allow the banks to go to the wall. At least we can then move on with a clean sheet for the future.
I vote for the latter choice because it will make us fitter for the future, rather than having a long-term pain in the rear.
All of this started back in 2002. Back then, the leverage of credit was nowhere near as horrendous as it is today. Since then, in the five years that followed, derivatives markets created around $20 trillion of false credit – money that did not exist. This was being generated in the USA and across Europe through Credit Derivatives,and it created a housing bubble and world of money that was non-sustainable, non-believable and non-existent.
The fall of Lehman Brothers in 2008 ended that rollercoaster ride forever, and the consequent hard landing means that we now have to pay back that $20 trillion-plus of credit.
That is the size of this correction, in fact it could be even greater, and this is why banks should be allowed to go to the wall.
Banks should be allowed to go to the wall because the defenders of free market economics supported and promoted the efficient operation of markets. They actively defended the use of Credit Default Swaps, Collateralised Debt Obligations and other free market tools. They claimed these were just examples of the free markets at work. They cheerfully endorsed the self-regulation of the financial markets on the basis that only the fittest survive.
So why are they not supporting, promoting, cheering, endorsing and defending free market economics today?
In a free markets world, those that have fail are supposed to do just that: fail. The banks that are not the fittest should not survive. They should be allowed to go to the wall.
Why won't we let these banks fail therefore?
Because they are 'too big to fail', 'too integral to our economy' or 'too important for society'?
Banks are not allowed to fail because politicians would lose their jobs and, as a consequence, our societies might run to anarchy.
If we were all allowed to lose our money on deposit and businesses were suddenly unable to process payments or gain access to capital, our economies would crash, unemployment would rise and riots would ensue.
We have seen this in Greece recently, and every day there is picketing outside the Parliament of Iceland to show the anger and hurt their country is feeling.
This is the reality of letting banks fail and this would be the reality here in Ireland, across Europe and most countries impacted by this crisis.
But politicians losing their offices, bankers losing their jobs and society facing levels of unemployment and disruption is exactly what we have to face up to, if we are to get over this glitch.
Let me put it another way, if we do not swallow this pain today then we are just postponing it for tomorrow. By not letting banks fail, we are placing the burden of their debt and our gluttony on our children and our children's children.
So we should take our medicine today and be done with it, rather than living on our greed and letting our children and grandchildren pay for it.
And even if we do not let banks fail, we do not solve the problem. We just exacerbate it.
By not letting banks fail, governments are pumping tens of billions of dollars into a system that is broken. This system is not fixable, or appears not to be. After all, the US and European governments sank over a trillion dollars into the system in October and it is still broken. These governments came back with a further multi-trillion dollar package just this month, and it is still broken.
All that the government's actions have achieved is to realign the balance sheet of the banks and line the bankster's pockets. This purely demonstrates therefore that providing liquidity from government coffers does not work.
What about nationalising the bank's then?
Well, that does not work either.
By nationalising the banks all you achieve is inefficiency and imbalance. You cannot have a system where some banks are government owned and some are not. So do we nationalise all of them, including the healthy banks, just because some rotten apples have poisoned the barrely? That is not fair.
Equally, by nationalising a few, that is also not fair.
The ones that are nationalised become lazy and complacent, and they will continually be beaten by the ones that are not. Furthermore, by nationalising institutions where neither the institutions themselves nor the government wants to nationalise them, we create an worse situation.
No, let bad banks fail and be done with it.
And what would happen if we did let banks go to the wall?
What would be the worst scenario?
Riots, anarchy, revolution, civil war?
Possibly … but only if we let all the banks fail, including the good ones. Equally,there are alternatives.
For example Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel Prize winning economist, believes that banks should be allowed to fail. The way he would do it is to have the government guarantee and secure all depositors' monies, along with the current bank operations, buildings and branches.
The government then wipes out their balance sheet debts by declaring the banks bankrupt and, through the same process, they then create new banks that are healthy.
When the new banks prove to be robust, they are then returned to the private sector with a clean bill of health.
This approach has some merit, as it focuses upon creating good banks. After all, who wants to create 'bad banks'? Who wants a 'toxic bank'? What is the point of that?
Let the bad banks fail.
And let us not forget that we are not saying let all banks fail. Just the ones that are broken.
There are still healthy banks out there and, in the rules of free market economics, these banks should be allowed to be more powerful and competitive at the expense of the ones that are ailing and weak.
Let the fittest survive and let the weakest go to the wall.
Equally, in a world where technology is a critical component, there are many new ways of gaining access to finance anyway, with several new financial providers in play.
In the UK, we have seen several new banks being launched by local governments, the Post Office, Metro Bank and more. We have also seen new providers such as Zopa, Wonga, SmartyPig and the Barter Network, to name but a few.
There are healthy banks and alternative banks therefore who can prop up our system.
banks that over-leveraged cannot cover their capital, then let them fail.
Others will be left standing who are efficient and appropriate. This is how free market economics works, and I wonder why the free market economists and politicians don't get this.
In conclusion, the real reason we won't let bad banks fail is because politicians are too fearful of losing their jobs and society is too concerned about losing the good times.
But here is the core of the reason banks should be allowed to go to the wall because if we don't lose jobs and the good times now, then someone will lose them later. And that someone is you, your children and your children's children.
All we are doing is deferring the issue through stimulus packages to saddle future generations with debts and taxes. Equally, as George Osborne the UK's Shadow Chancellor recently stated, we have allowed the capitalisation of the profits through the socialisation of the losses. Banksters enjoyed the freedom of the city in the good times whilst giving us all the hurt for the bad times.
So let the systems fail, the bad banks go to the wall, the cleansing of the system and its cancerous over-leveraged poison, and create a new world order that works far better than the broken one of today.
My opponent then presented some thoughts about how government guarantees meant that we were not deferring taxes to future generations; how 30,000 bankers on the dole queues would not be right; that AIB and other banks had announced lending was coming back to SMEs and more; that the government could not do the job the banks do; that 100,000 people would be laid off in Ireland this year with unemployment rising to 12% of the population; that growth was down 6% this year and was only getting worse; and so on.
His bottom-line was that we could not let the banks go to the wall, as all of this would just get worse and that was untenable.
We then had a long debate with the audience of students and Corkonians (no, people from Cork are not called Corkers) with comments such as the fact that Anglo-Irish Bank is a disgrace which fuelled and protected property developers and no-one else; that the government's guarantees have purely underwritten foreign business loans; that the world today is characterised by insecurity and doubt and that we need security and certainty for an economy to work; that banks fulfil a role that State does not and cannot, after all where else do business start-ups have to go other than a bank for capital; that If banks fail, we fail as a society and that our property becomes their property and we all go to the wall; and more.
Finally, we came to conclusions.
I've already outlined most of what was said but, in my concluding remarks, I did say that the issue we face today is the deleveraging of our over leverage.
When Lehman Brothers collapsed, over $550 billion was withdrawn from the US banking system in hours. This would have led to the collapse of America within a day if action had not been taken. That incident created the fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) we face today, and that if we do not let more bad banks fail, we can never get back to certainty and security.
The fact that every $1 billion in losses at Lehman could equate to $20 billion or more of losses on Credit Default Swaps created the FUD. No-one knew where or with whom these losses would occur and, with $400 billion of losses, that meant the world expected up to $10 trillion of exposure.
That was, and is, the issue.
This has resulted in the strangulation of credit and access to capital, which is why Ireland is now paying €3.50 for every €100 to insure its sovereign debt, compared with only €0.10 for every €100 just a year ago.
This is unsustainable when you have public sector debt in Ireland expected to rise by €15 billion this year alone, to €70 billion overall, and 220% of the country's annual economic output pledged to the banking system.
That is why bad banks should go to the wall.
There will still be good banks, there will still be new banks, but bad banks need to go to the wall.
We then had a vote and the motion was carried … by about one vote.
Banks should be allowed to go to the wall.
Even with all of this emotion and reasoned argument, students and Corkonians were still split about whether banks should be allowed to fail.
But then, with lots of money in savings for the pensioners in the room and a debating society full of budding lawyers (yes, that's the core group of graduates in a debating room), it's not surprising the motion was only just carried.
After all, who wants to see a bank fail when they are either providing your current or future income?
Oh yes, and it wouldn't surprise me if I come back sometime soon and argue why banks should not be allowed to go to the wall, just for the fun of it.
Next Is NatWest right to fire Tim?

My Week In TV: Dec. 5-11
Posted on December 12, 2010 by movieguyjon Blather TV 0
I've still got to write up that wrap up for Terriers, so expect that soonish. In the meantime, here's the scoop. Two shows ended their seasons this past week and one had a Christmas special. All were pretty good this week. Shame that Fringe will be gone for another six weeks. SERIOUSLY, FOX, what be the hell, yo?!
Fringe: S3 x 09 – Marionette ★★★★☆
A really good episode dealing primarily with Olivia's return to the regular universe. She copes with the damages caused by Bolivia while trying to solve a mystery of organ theft. Yet another example of why you shouldn't watch this show before or during a meal. The effects were pretty good and the creepy factor was raised to eleven. I mean, seriously, rebuilding someone just to have them dance around for you? Oy!
Community: S2 x 11 – Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas ★★★★☆
Community is easily my favorite comedy show since Arrested Development. Lots of fun in each episode with just as much meta humor as one can stand. This time, the students of Greendale find themselves stuck in a winter wonderland via Abed's altered reality. They play out his fantasy, which finds them galavanting about in humorous stop motion versions of themselves. Jeff is a jack in the box, Troy is a little drummer boy and Pierce is a teddy bear. While I'm not a huge fan of musical numbers, the ones in this episode are humorous and poke fun at holiday specials. Props to the Cave of Frozen Memories.
No Ordinary Family: S1 x 10 – No Ordinary Sidekick ★★★★☆
The sidekicks get the story in this episode as George gets credit for Jim's rescue and Katie struggles with not getting the respect she needs from Stephanie. It's a good episode with some nice character moments. Daphne starts to suspect Katie's boyfriend and gets a rather shocking visit from him while the rest of the family is away. It's nice to see that the Powells are finding out their weaknesses as the show progresses, and J.J.'s is particularly creative.
Boardwalk Empire: S1 x 12 – A Return to Normalcy ★★★☆☆
It's election time in Atlantic City and truces are called. There's some nice "mobster stuff" near the end of the episode and it's nice to see Capone again after a few episode absence. Nucky and Margaret work through their issues and we get a really nice moment between the two in regards to their deceased children. Jimmy Darmody and Eli start plotting against Nucky and that's pretty much where things end. A little on the underwhelming side in terms of finales, but considering the show has been great so far, it's a small complaint.
The Walking Dead: S1 x 06 – TS-19 ★★★☆☆
The season finale to The Walking Dead was good, but a few things bothered me. The first thing that didn't quite sit right was the CDC storyline. While it was nice to see everyone get a reprieve from the apocalypse, the reprieve didn't feel earned from a thematic standpoint. Can't really explain it better than that other to say that them getting to safety felt too easy, especially since going to the CDC in the first place was not very well planned out. The bits with patient TS-19 were really well-done, however, and are what drew me to this episode the most. All in all, The Walking Dead was a fun and engaging show set in a zombie apocalypse. I think the TV format suits this genre well.
My Week In TV: Nov. 28-Dec. 4
Posted on December 4, 2010 by movieguyjon Blather TV 0
Fringe and Community came back this week, which made me very happy. Terriers ended it's first season, which made me sad. No Ordinary Family once again rose to the challenge and Boardwalk Empire brought us a little of the old style. I'd say don't take my word for it, but if you didn't watch any of these shows this week you will probably have to. Let's get into it, shall we?
Terriers: S1 x 13 – Hail Mary ★★★★☆
Terriers finished up it's season with a solid episode. It didn't have as much of the punch of the Tim Minear episode awhile back, but it saw it's main arc through and wrapped up all the loose threads in a satisfying manner. I was reminded to some extent of the first season of Dexter. Both shows' first seasons could stand on their own and didn't feel incomplete should they be canceled. Hopefully Terriers sees the same fate of Dexter and gets many more seasons.
Fringe: S3 x 08 – Entrada ★★★★☆
And we're back again with another episode of Fringe. It seems like a year in between each break this show takes. Seriously, FOX. You guys need to cut that shit out. I don't think I can take much more time away from Olivia and company. This week saw a dual-universe episode, bouncing back and forth between the other world and ours. Even the opening credits reflected this. It's nice to see the showrunners' dedication to point of view and to structure. Kudos. One point of contention: Peter HAD to know that Bolivia was not who she claimed to be. If he were genuinely surprised by this turn of events, then what was the point of that flirtatious exchange earlier on in the season.
Writers…you have some 'asplaining to do!
The Walking Dead: S1 x 05 – Wildfire ★★★★☆
There were a lot of good character moments in this episode, and we finally got to watch someone in this world succumb to the effects of zombification. A very bleak episode, but that's really not saying a whole lot. The bit with the CDC worker at the end was a great touch and I hope that more of those moments can litter the next season when it eventually airs. Sure, the episode wasn't without it's flaws (I mean, really, no backup plan should the CDC not work?!), but it was still good despite it and worth watching. I'm quite interested to see where the last episode of the season takes us.
No Ordinary Family: S1 x 09 – No Ordinary Anniversary ★★★★☆
We get another villain-of-the-week this week and he shoots FIRE! But more importantly than that, Mr. and Mrs. Powell become a super-team. It's here that we get a glimpse of things to come as the family starts to feel their calling to be heroic. Some of the fighting between Mrs. Powell and Fire Dude was kind of awkward, but they really nailed his creepiness-factor. Kudos on that. Another interesting bit involved Daphne attempting to read Will's mind. I would be lying if I said that I didn't scream "DON'T DO IT GIRL!!!" at the screen.
Boardwalk Empire: S1 x 11 – Paris Green ★★★☆☆
This episode should have been titled "Agent Van Alden Goes Bonkers and Kills A Guy!" There wasn't a whole lot here apart from the scene shown above and a spat between Margaret and Nucky and Nucky and Eli. We find out that Jimmy's father hasn't been feeling all that great due to poisoning and that Jimmy's home life has crumbled way beyond repair. Onward to the finale!
Community: S2 x 10 – Mixology Certification ★★★☆☆
Community seems to bounce back and forth between laugh out loud episodes and character development episodes this season, oftentimes finding a good balance. This episode couldn't quite decide what it wanted to be and the result was a rather uneven episode. Troy shines through as the main character in this episode, but Annie pops in throughout with her rather abrupt identity-crisis. I think the episode could have been stronger if they had picked a character and stuck with them, but at the same time I still enjoyed what I saw. Jeff? Britta? Please to be getting it on now. Thx. Pierce? You are still wonderful.
My Week In TV: Nov. 21-27
Posted on November 29, 2010 by movieguyjon Blather TV 0
Been playing catch up this whole week, as I haven't really wanted to watch my shows. I usually get this way around the holidays. And with the whole internet and DVR being a thing, I can always watch my shows later. That said, apologies on this being a later post than usual.
The Walking Dead: S1 x 04 – Vatos ★★★★★
Perhaps the best and most tragic episode of the series yet. There's one particular scene that plays out fairly matter-of-factly in the comic and is done very well here. The filler has weight and never feels like filler. It's the kind of episode that makes you take pause after as you digest all the shit that just hit the fan. I can't wait to see how the last two episodes of the season play out.
Terriers: S1 x 11 – Sins of the Past ★★★★★ & S1 x 12 – # ★★★★☆
Wow. Just wow. By the end of episode twelve I'm on the edge of my seat. Thanks a lot, cliffhanger ending! What a damn good show this has been so far. Episode eleven was written by Tim Minnear, and as such was rather poignant. Episode twelve brought the main arc back in full swing and left me wanting more by the last frame. Here's a show that's not afraid to get rid of characters. I always warm to these for some reason.
Boardwalk Empire: S1 x 10 – The Emerald City ★★★★☆
Richard Harrow has the best moments in this episode and manages to teach Margaret, perhaps the most humble character in this tale, some lessons on acceptance and prejudice. That scene alone is worth the price of admission and it really stands out in what's a rather bleak episode. Agent Van Alden takes an unlikely turn in his holy quest for Margaret's soul and Jimmy Darmody is finding his own as Nucky's personal hit squad. It all looks to be building toward an upcoming election, so we'll see if that factors into the finale any.
No Ordinary Family: S1 x 08 – No Ordinary Accident ★★★★☆
They should have named this episode "No Ordinary Frustration At Being Unable To Help People" as we dance around the ethics of using powers and what the actual responsibilities of having these powers entails. "With great power comes great responsibility" hasn't been told so well in television as it was here in this episode. Not only that, we're starting to unravel the foils to our super heroes, which will no doubt come into play as the villains become more prevalent. Oh look. I see all the haters coming back. How ya been?
Still a little behind on getting these posts out, but I think this week I'll be able to catch up. Here's a recap of last week's episodes and what I thought. Weeds finished up season six so I'll probably write up a recap of the whole season and detail the bests and worsts of the whole shebang. So, without further ado, let's get through last week's episodes!
Fringe: S3 x 07 – The Abducted ★★★★★
Perhaps the strongest episode yet this season. Olivia makes an attempt at escaping the other side while trying to solve the Candyman kidnappings that have been plaguing the denizens there. We get to take a look into alternate Broils' life and get more of his backstory. I kind of wish we'd get that for Real Broils at some point in this season. The taxi man makes a comeback and it's nice seeing an ally on this side of the universes. The way things are shaping up, we're getting close to the end of the first major arc this season. I expect we'll see Olivia heading home at some point. Kind of pissed that I have to wait two weeks until the next episode airs. W-T-H Fox!
Weeds: S6 x 13 – Theoretical Love Is Not Dead ★★★★★
What a finale! Not sure what else I can say other than DO ANYBODY NO WHERE SEASON 7 is?! This show, despite it's varying flaws, still knows how to wrap up a season and make you want more. I really hope they are able to stabilize the pacing a little bit more next year. But then again, maybe the erratic pace is kind of the point. Am I the only one who noticed that Kevin Nealon backed out of the story way too quickly? I hope he comes back next season as his shenanigans provide a much needed comedic balance to the story.
Boardwalk Empire: S1 x 09 – # ★★★★☆
A solid episode that manages to blend the slice-of-life period-piece aesthetic and the mobster shenanigans well. Michael Pitt's character returns to Atlantic City on a murderous quest and shows how much he's grown from the first episode of the show. I'm anxious to see how this plays out, especially given the episode's rather startling ending.
The Walking Dead: S1 x 03 – Tell it to the Frogs ★★★★☆
This show continues to impress and give us strong character moments. Episode three is an improvement on two and it's worth watching just for the family reunion alone. If you've read the first volume to the comic, you'll know how things play out overall, but the show manages to keep things surprising with the subplots that aren't in the book.
Community: S2 x 09 – Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design ★★★★☆
Greendale is a place I want to go to, especially since the world of night classes are straight out of a paranoia thriller and there exists the probability of blanket forts. There's really not much more I can say other than the multiple shoot-out at the end is hilarious.
Terriers: S1 x 11 – Sins of the Past ☆☆☆☆☆
Missed the episode last week. Will catch up on both this week.
No Ordinary Family: S1 x 07 – No Ordinary Mobster ★★★★☆
The stakes are higher for the Powells now that we get a glimpse of what the Big Bad knows. Even though there's no real danger to the family in this episode, the sense of foreboding is strong here and it feels like only a matter of time before the family is presented with their first real challenge. I like the character work in this episode as well as the darker tones that permeate throughout. It's nice to see that these characters are being lightly shoved in the direction of heroism instead of being completely thrust into the action. Given the suburban family aesthetic of the show, it makes sense. Amy Acker guest stars in this episode, although she's not given a lot to do (DAMNIT!).
My Week In TV: Oct. 31-Nov. 13
So, this week's My Week In TV is more like "My Two Weeks In TV Plus A New Show." As you may or may not know, The Walking Dead premiered on Halloween to rave reviews and the following week the second episode got even better reviews. Since I like zombies and dramas involving those inept dead, I thought I would add them to the mix and add this show to my weekly roundup. Also, Fringe is back from a stupid hiatus involving something I don't care about (sports). All in all, a lot has happened in television while I've been off galavanting at the Grauman's Chinese Theater for AFI Fest.
Let's jump right in.
Fringe: S3 x 05 – Amber 31422 ★★★★☆ & S3 x 06 – 6995 kHz ★★★★☆
Shawn Ashmore (The X-Men series, The Ruins) turns in an excellent performance as twin brothers in a tragic tale of crime in the parallel world in a very strong episode of Fringe. What a great episode to return with, and it was very interesting to see how yet ANOTHER actor on this show was able to play two roles with such nuance. Major props. The followup episode, 6995 kHz, was also strong and gave us a glimpse of the direction this season is taking. It's nice to have this show back.
Community: S2 x 07 – Aerodynamics of Gender ★★★★☆ & S2 x 08 – Cooperative Calligraphy ★★★★☆
Abed is perhaps the best comedic character on television currently, and Aerodynamics of Gender proves it. The way he tears into the ladies with terminator-style precision is absolute comedic gold and the deadpan delivery nailed it for me. It was interesting seeing Hillary Duff cameo in the episode, and her subtle turn was about as surprising as Drew Carey's rather healthy physique a few episodes prior. Episode eight is called "the bottle episode" and when you go look up the definition, you'll understand why. This is the episode you'll refer to your friends who are interested in seeing Jeff and Annie sans most of their clothing.
The Walking Dead: S1 x 01 – Days Gone Bye 31422 ★★★★☆ & S1 x 02 – Guts ★★★☆☆
Zombies are awesome, and volume 1 of the comic book The Walking Dead is awesome as well. It's nice to see an adaptation that's faithful to the spirit of the comic and one that pulls no punches in the gore department. Do NOT eat dinner (or any meal for that matter) while watching this one. Episode one delved into the tragedy of the zombie outbreak, lamenting the loss of humanity. It was a great way to start the show and really drew me in. The second episode continued the story and introduced more characters, but didn't have quite the thematic oomph of the first. Still, I anxiously await the rest of this short first season.
Boardwalk Empire: S1 x 07 – Home ★★★★☆ & S1 x 08 – Hold Me In Paradise ★★★☆☆
Episode seven is a Nucky-centric episode, and delves into some of his troubled past. There's a bunch of good stuff in the episode and it's nice to see some kind of humanity in the character this show is based on. The last few moments of the episode are particularly poignant, as it's been with previous episodes. Hold Me In Paradise continues with the poignancy as the turf-squabbling hits a bit too close to home. I'm quite intrigued with the way this show has set up Federal Agent Van Alden, especially in his interactions with his wife. Neither of them during the dinner scene were in the same frame, pointing out the rather significant divide between them. It's not every day that device is used in television and it's a nice touch.
Terriers: S1 x 09 – Pimp Daddy ★★★☆☆ & S1 x 10 – Asunder ★★★★☆
Episode nine is a rather straight forward one-off episode involving a trans hooker trying to find out what happened to her friend. There's not a lot of meat to the episode and it is a little light on the drama, which isn't a bad thing per se. The moments near the end were good, but I wonder if more could have been made out of the search and what the disappearance meant. The followup episode was much better in contrast, taking us back to Hank's struggle with his ex's impending marriage. At the very end of that episode we get a turn back to an earlier story arc to reveal that the case isn't quite as closed as we first imagined.
No Ordinary Family: S1 x 06 – No Ordinary Visitors ★★★★☆
Not a whole lot to say. It's a very cute episode with a logical progression of one super power and more family-oriented goodness. Haters gonna hate, but I think this show is solid and fun to watch. I also appreciate that we've only been getting villain-of-the-week, as it's allowed for more focus on the family and them developing a better rapport with each other. By the time the main villain does his thing, I expect this family will be ready. Didn't care much for the "parents visiting" thing happening so early in the show, but it wasn't played too cheesy and ended up being integral to the theme of the episode.
Weeds: S6 x 11 – Viking Pride ★★★☆☆ & S6 x 12 – Fran Tarkenton ★★★☆☆
Weeds has had a pretty up and down season. Well, mostly down. The stuff with Esteban in the beginning was strong and gave us strong character moments. Near the end of the season, however, it all became a series of complications "just because." I'm glad they brought the Esteban stuff back at the end of episode twelve, but I hope all that mess gets resolved. Not sure I could take another season 6.

Identification of a Novel Calcium (Ca2+)-Activated Chloride Channel-like Membrane Protein 1 Gene that Encodes the Metalloprotease Motif in Xenopus laevis

Here, we report cloning and identification of a calcium (Ca2+)-activated chloride channel (CLCA)-like membrane protein 1 (CMP1) gene from the Xenopus laevis colon, which encodes a metalloprotease motif. CMP1 was identified by in silico analysis, rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), and tissue distribution analysis. It was revealed that the CMP1 amino acid sequence showed 49.8% overall identity with rat brain (rb) CLCA1 using in silico analysis. In particular, 5′- and 3′-RACE methods were adapted to obtain whole cDNA sequence with an open reading frame (ORF) encoding 936 amino acids. CMP1 also had the following features of CLCA family members: predicted signal sequence (ss), N-linked glycosylation, N-myristoylation, phosphorylation by PKC, and casein kinase II with at least five putative transmembrane (TM) domains. Additionally, it was revealed that CMP1 is ubiquitously expressed, especially in the brain, colon, heart, kidney, oocytes, and spleen with both semi-quantitative reverse transcription (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR analysis. Tissues except for the brain, heart, and spleen had relatively low CMP1 expression, and expression was almost undetectable in the lung and small intestine. In particular, we could not detect CMP1 in the liver. Collectively, these results enhance the amount of genetic information that is available for X. laevis and were useful for characterizing CMP1 as a possible metalloprotease rather than an ion channel.

Ricardo Badoer Turns His Guns on Match-Fixing Cartels in Kenya. Will He Eliminate Them?
Published on : July 21, 2020 July 21, 2020 Published by : Noah Okello
Match fixing menace in the country continues to be a thorn in the flesh for many football stakeholders. Despite various exposes made by various media houses on the same, no permanent solution has been found to deal with this growing vice that threatens to completely taint the image of the beautiful game.
A number of football stakeholders like club owners are however out to put an end to the vice and are doing everything within their power to get the truth.
Wazito FC owner Ricardo Badoer is now offering Kshs.10 million to Kshs.20 million to anyone who will present him with solid evidence about match fixing on the Kenyan football scene.
The businessman has now sought the help of activist Boniface Mwangi in a bid to unravel the whole truth behind match fixing especially in the Kenya Premier League (now Betking Premier League)
Below is a message Mr. Badoer sent to Boniface Mwangi:
This is not the first time Mr. Badoer is seeking to unravel the mystery behind match fixing. Back in January, he challenged anyone with proof of match fixing to come forward and give him all the necessary information for a Kshs.10 million shillings reward.
"I challenge anyone with proof of match-fixing in Kenya to come forward. Anyone who gives me the names of these people will get KSh10 million from me," he said.
Apart from Ricardo Badoer, Sofapaka FC President Elly Kalekwa and Kakamega Homeboyz FC Chairman Cleophas Shimanyula have also in the past raised concern over match fixing.
THE SOFAPAKA CIRCUS

Back in 2019, Kalekwa's Sofapaka became victims of a match-fixing racket after some foreigners from a Singapore based company almost led to the downfall of the club through a very suspicious deal.
The company had pledged to bring Sofapaka a foreign coach and five players all who also had to be foreigners. The six individuals came in and had their salaries catered for by the Singapore based company.
It is however worth noting that the company never deposited any money to the Sofapaka bank account as they had agreed. The deal between the two entities was later terminated.
It was after the unfortunate happenings that Kalekwa opened up how his team found itself between a rock and a hard stone.
"Immediately after we had signed that partnership, I felt that something was not right. I kept wondering why these sponsors were only interested in paying a foreign coach and the salaries of a foreign goalkeeper and defenders," Kalekwa told Nation Sport.
"After a few games, I started noticing strange things happening before and during our matches. For three months they had not given even a shilling to the club but were religiously paying the foreign-based players. The moment I raised my suspicion with them, they left the country and cut off all communications with us," he said.
"I then confronted the foreign players one after the other, and they confessed. They told me that indeed they had been instructed to throw away matches, but that they had not yet started doing it. I had to let them all go because I do not condone match-fixing," he added.
An investigation by Nation Sports later revealed that their was no online trace of the said company that Sofapaka signed a sponsorship deal with.
The company, Living 3D Holdings Ltd was operated by a group of people out to fix games in the Kenya Premier League.
IN COMES KAKAMEGA HOMEBOYZ
Kakamega Homeboyz Chairman Cleophas Shimanyula//Photo Courtesy
Away from Sofapaka, Kakamega Homeboyz chairman Cleophas Shimanyula once blew the whistle on an ongoing match-fixing syndicate at his club.
Investigations were launched after which four players from the club were banned for taking part in acts of match fixing.
Moses Chikati, Festo Omukoto, Festus Okiring were banned for four years while George Mandela got a lifetime ban from all football activities.
The Fifa Disciplinary Committee had found the players guilty of having been involved in match manipulation in violation of article 69 paragraph one of the Fifa Disciplinary Code (2017 ed.).
"In particular, given his central role in the conspiracy, the player George Mandela, Uganda, has been banned from taking part in any kind of football-related activity at national and international level (administrative, sports or any other) for life," read a statement from Fifa.
"Moreover, the following individuals [Moses Chikati, Festus Okiring, and Festo Omukoto] have been banned from taking part in any kind of football-related activity at national and international level (administrative, sports or any other) for a period of four (4) years."
The match-fixing syndicate in Kenya is an intricate web that involves football players, referees and many other stakeholders out to destroy the game.
Who will save the Kenyan football scene from the greedy match fixing agents?

Heading into the mid-season tournament, the "round-house" was full of excitement as Holton and Hiawatha looked to head into their tournaments with momentum. For each school, they'll have at least one team feeling the momentum as the Holton LadyCats defeated the Lady Redhawks 58-29 and the Hiawatha boys took down the Holton boys in overtime 69-59.
Anyone who watches the game of basketball understands that the game is one of "runs". This game was no different. Holton, riding a two game losing streak, came into the night focused on starting of quickly, and they did just that. Jumping out to a 12-4 lead, Holton was poised to likely carry a double digit lead into the second quarter. However, Brady Jasper's Redhawks had other ideas. Hiawatha ended the final 2:20 of the 1st quarter on an 8-0 run to tie the game at 12-12. John Holidays Cats responded to whatever he challenged them with, as they outscored Hiawatha 17-6 in the 2nd frame to lead 29-18 at halftime.
Holton continued to turn up the pressure defensively and frustrate the young Redhawk team, outscoring Hiawatha 29-11 in the second half to ultimately win 58-29. Turnovers and lack of free throws would continue to plague Hiawatha in the second half, as they turned the ball over 12 times in the second half and 18 times all game, while only going 4-7 from the charity stripe. Holton on the other hand, relished in the fact that they only turned the ball over five times in the second half and eight times in the game, while shooting 20-32 from the foul line.
Holton (5-3, 4-3 Big 7) – With the win, Holton snaps a 2 game losing skid and will next play in the Bashor-Linwood Bobcat Classic next week starting on Wednesday night vs St. Joseph Central at 6:00pm.
Hiawatha (2-7, 1-6 Big 7) – Hiawatha couldn't continue momentum following their first conference win over Riverside on Tuesday. The Redhawks look to bounce back next Friday vs Horton followed by hosting their own tournament the week of the 22nd.
Holton- Tanking – 19, Moore – 8, Haussler – 7, Hickman – 6, Barta – 5, Holaday – 4, Rhodd – 2, Ramirez – 2, Flewelling – 2, Yingst – 1.
Hiawatha- Lindstrom – 16, S Madesen – 4, Wrencher – 4. K Madsen – 3, Overdick – 2.
On paper, this game was going to be Hiawatha winning by several points, especially since it was a home game. Holton had other plans, however. After a tight first five minutes of the game where the lead went back and forth, Hiawatha trailed 6-5 with about 3:00 left in the 1st quarter. Coach Garry Smith called time out and calmed his guys down and aided them to rattling off an 11-2 run to close out the quarter and lead 16-8 at the end of the 1st quarter. A back and forth 2nd quarter saw Holton trim the lead to five at one point but not any closer and would trail by six at the half, 31-25. At the break, Hiawatha had forced 12 Holton turnovers and scored 14 points off those turnovers. The third quarter saw the game of basketball at it's finest. After nearly two minutes of game time and neither team finding an offensive rhythm, Hiawatha spouted a 6-2 run to extend their lead to the largest of the game at 37-27. over the next five minutes of game time heading into the 4th Quarter, Holton, led by Eli Prine and Blake Mulroy clawed the 'Cats back into the game by going on a 16-4 run to lead 43-41.
Holton hit five 3's in the 3rd Quarter aiding the comeback. Holton would lead the majority of the 4th quarter, before Hiawatha's defensive intensity would turn up again and start to wreak havoc on the Wildcat's. Tyler Brockhoff ran the point of Hiawatha's full court pressure and aided in five turnovers in the final two minutes of game time. Holton led by as many as six with two minutes to go, before Hiawatha would use Brockhoff's size advantage on the block to bring the Redhawks back into the game. Leading by three with :17 left, Holton scrambled to inbound the basketball and found themselves in a double team. Michael Moreno turned over Holton sophomore, Kale Purcell and made a layup plus the foul to tie the game up at 58-58. Holton had a great look as time was expiring when Noah Woltje faced the basket with :03 left and missed the potential game winning bucket, forcing overtime. With Holton having three guys foul out of the contest, Hiawatha carried their momentum from the final 2:00 of regulation into overtime and outscored Holton 11-1 in overtime to win 69-59.
Holton (1-7, 1-6 Big 7) – Played without leading scorer and rebounder Zane Moylan. With the loss, Holton's losing streak continues now at six straight. Holton will next play in the Bashor-Linwood Bobcat Classic next week starting on Tuesday afternoon at 3:00.
Hiawatha (6-3, 4-3 Big 7) – Hiawatha continues to win games they should and be competetive in all other games. The Redhawks will get a real test as they play in next week's McLouth Invitational Mid-Season tournament.
Holton- Prine – 16, Mulroy – 12, Purcell – 10, Holaday – 10, Wrights – 6, Gilliland – 4, Brees – 1.
Hiawatha- Meyer – 23, Brockhoff – 19, Moreno – 9, Lierz – 6, Pavlish – 4, Isaac – 2, Nez – 2, Lillie – 2, Corbett – 2.

The authorization for the International Driver License is based on the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic and Safety held in 1923, 1943, 1949 and 1968. The United Nations
Convention established standards for the International Driver License and MWL performs the translation of your country's governmental issued driver's license.
The International Driver License that we carry is easy to understand. The English data is numbered, with its foreign language translation adjacent to it, for ease of comprehension.
As a security measure we also issue a plastic card known as the "INTERNATIONAL DRIVER'S DOCUMENT" for each member. The INTERNATIONAL DRIVER'S DOCUMENT has a unique security feature built in which is known as the 2D bar code that could hold 100 times more information on it then the Standard bar code.
The International Driver License is issued by My World License and is a translation of a Country's Driver's License. It allows the motorist to drive in different countries without dealing with various language barriers. The International Driver License is valid only with an original Driver's License. We do not issue valid International Driver Licenses nor are these documents intended for legal driving use. You are required to carry a valid government issued license from your country to operate a motor vehicle. Your International Driver License must be accompanied at all times by your original valid Driver's License from your country. You are not allowed to present the International Driver License as your only document to Drive a motorized vehicle since it is only a translation of your original Driver's license from your country.
