[Breaking the Ice] 2nd session: NDW and a funeral
June 22, 2005, 11:36:19 PM »
So yesterday was our second session of BtI (first one see
). We played another four scenes, so we were even slower than last time since we didn�t have to create characters and the handling time of the rules also went down. I didn�t even notice time passing, which is a good sign, I think. Here�s how it went:
Scene 5 of 1st date: Linda and Henning arrive in the club. Unfortunately, there is an NDW party going on (NDW being �Neue Deutsche Welle�, German music from the 80�s that can take on very strange forms). There is some nice little banter and Henning reveals that he was a punk in the 80�s, thus creating a new trait. The scene ends with them heading for a table with two gin tonics and a fresh attraction level.
Scene 6 of 1st date: Henning walks Linda to the door. She forgot her key, so they sneak to the back garden to climb through an open window. We defied all probability in this scene. Here�s what we rolled: 3 attraction dice, 3 bonus dice, 6 re-rolls, 3 conflict dice and 4 compatibility dice, making for a total of 19 and only getting one success. We had a feeling the scene just didn�t
to end well. As we didn�t see any way to still bring that last compatibility in, we finished the scene by Linda heading off to bed alone.
Between dates: We had 2 temporary attraction levels and rolled 1 instant success. Then we mulled over a re-roll, discussing some lame ideas until Nicolas came up with: Henning�s mother dies, and this blow threatens to knock his fragile mental state off balance again. Then I said: �So the second date is a funeral?� And there it was. It�s probably not a date in the strictest sense, but we were both delighted by the idea. Plus, the re-roll came up a success, making that a total three permanent attraction levels and three compatibilities after the first date.
Scene 1 of 2nd date: By the open grave. The day is brooding hot. Linda consoles Henning, and they talk. The scene stretched long and longer as Nicolas kept rolling crap
. We had used up all attraction, bonus dice, re-rolls and the conflict, too, so it was �comp or die�. It really required some hard thinking to get
of the existing three compatibilities into the scene without it being totally ridiculous. We did it, however, and finished by creating a compatibility: Linda has also lost someone dear to her, her father.
We both think, however, that the compatibility issue is a problem. You can only address a given compatibility ever so often before it starts to suck. I understand that normally, you should create new compatibilities and enough attraction so you don�t need to bring those same old comps in again and again, but well, if you are one unlucky bastard like Nicolas, you have to.
Scene 2 of 2nd date: In the car, driving to the obsequies. I brought out the big guns this time, starting with the conflict straight away as Henning told Linda he�d had some problems of late and was in therapy, also addressing a compatibility by referring to work stress at the agency they both used to work for. That was enough for 3 successes, so it was a quick scene. Linda sympathized and admitted there had been a time when she herself took some mild anti-depressants. Though this screamed �comp�, I opted for a temporary attraction level since I didn�t think this was a compatibility you could address very well.
This was it. I like how the whole funeral thing really fits the tone we had agreed on in the beginning, making the story a little darker and more thoughtful. Can�t wait to continue.

JERRY: So, you goin' to the funeral?
GEORGE: Why, you think I should?
JERRY: What, are you kidding? It's a golden opportunity to advance the relationship. She's crying, you put your arm around her and console her...you're the consolation guy!
GEORGE: I'm the consolation guy...?
KRAMER: Consolation Guy is big.
JERRY: Her aunt dying is the best thing that ever happened to you.
KRAMER: It's like ten dates in one shot.
JERRY: This confers upon you instant boyfriend status. The family's there...you're taking care of things...you're gettin' the sandwiches...you're the rock!
So, you didn't play the funeral scene for laughs, right? Trying to be serious and everything? Interesting. Do you think the attempt to create real pathos was successful?
Dang it, I'm so gonna break down and play this game.

This is one of my favorite experiences in role-playing -- the moment when, for an instant, you think that there is some active force present at the table (or computer, in this case) other than the players. Interestingly, I didn't get that sensation the first time I played Breaking the Ice, but it seems that Emily has put in some significant changes since the version that I played.
Thanks for posting about this, Frank. I'm quickly becoming a big fan of this game, and I'm very interested in how others' experiences compare to my own.
Breaking the Ice is definitely on my "must buy as soon as it's available" list, right next to a print version of Trollbabe. I'd encourage anyone who's been on the fence to grab a partner and try this game out.

Hey Larry, I don�t know if we were being pathetic, or trying to. But we were about tragedy, not comedy. Since we were not sitting by the same table I can only speak for myself, but to me it felt right, not funny or ridiculous at all.
I just looked over the rules again and think we made a mistake. I somehow thought that you can get bonus dice only once per source and scene. Meaning: If you already introduced a setting element that made your character look good, another setting element wouldn�t gain an additional bonus dice, but one of the other four things that grant bonus dice (addressing traits, doing something nice etc.) could. Reading the rules over again, I don�t have the slightest idea where I got that from.

If the dice say it's your day to get kicked to the curb... well... what's wrong with that?
It sounds like you're saying that the game would be a
if these two people decided that they just weren't compatible, and ended up going their separate ways. But shouldn't a dating game have the possibility of ruinously bad dates, as well as good ones? The same way D&D needs the possibility of people going down into the deadly crypt and being eaten alive, every last one.
Or are you saying something else?

Hi Tony, to whom or what are you refering? I'm afraid I don't get you. Whoever said it would be a failure if they don't fall in love?

The game is still fun, even when the characters don't fall in love. That happened when I played it, and it was still enjoyable.

Wow. That is great stuff. (Sorry it took me so long to reply, I was away for the weekend.) The funeral as a second date gave me chills. As for playing it for laughs, sounds like the tone of your game would not have supported that. Approached differently, it could work out the way Miskatonic suggested. The players get to work that out between them.
And yes, you definitely can use multiple traits, setting elements, etc in any given scene for bonus dice et al. You must have been starving for dice with that constraint. I'd like to make clear that you can only use a given trait once, but perhaps that restraint need not be so for the other things. You can make as many new traits as you want in a scene.
You can only address a given compatibility ever so often before it starts to suck.
Could you say more about how this was for you? Was it that it was too contrived, or that the comps you chose made things unpleasant for the characters? Also, per some more thought and our discussion of your last session, I'm definitely going to rephrase when a turn ends. Ie you shouldn't have to pull in comps if you don't want to. I want to stress that people should try to use as many dice as they can, but not require them too.
Looking forward with great anticipation to seeing what happens next to Linda & Henning!

On the comps: I don't think they made things unpleasant for the characters, it just seemed far-fetched and inappropriate at some instants to bring them in. Here's the comps we created in the first session, and how they worked out:
- Met at a party: I mean, how many times can they possibly refer to the party, the place, and the people there? I think we used it at least three times, and after that, it was just... used up.
- Don't like sushi: Even worse. I probably wouldn't create a comp that constrained any more. OTOH, it was a cool thing to have. I think we used it twice or so, but that was just about as much as you could get out of it.
- Both worked at Springer & Jacoby: Well, that one was easier to use, because you could find many different ways how the firm or the job could come in. They could talk about it, meet someone they both know from work, etc.
I think you'll be fine if you do it the way you outlined.

"10/2, the day it all changed." - Lance Armstrong
It's tough to be a cyclist and not somehow have Lance Armstrong come into topic somewhere along the way. When you talk with people who don't ride, most of them (especially if they are Americans) know little about our sport—but they know Lance. Amongst cyclists there's the constant divide of "Did he or didn't he?" Is he the greatest ever? Was his sole focus in preparing for the Tour brilliant, or lacking in comparison to the traditional paths of Eddy, Mig, and Hinault? Why would the "old man" come back and risk it all this year? What's left to prove?
But the one thing that I think both the non-cyclist and veteran rider agree on is that Lance's story of Cancer survival is amazing. Nearly a thing of fiction really, it'd be tough for the most imaginative storytellers to create a tale of overcoming those sorts of odds to become a legendary champion.
It might seem odd to see this on the Rapha site, but during my years at Nike I was fortunate to get to spend some time with "Mellow Johnny", and helped to bring his stories and the LIVESTRONG message to life. So, I know that October 2nd is a very special day for Lance and now for millions of other people around the world who believe. Happy anniversary.

Maybe ASO should announce that ALL past winners of the TdeF are true Champions, that the past is the past, if you are caught today thats it, no more rides in ASO races. Period. This guy is a great Champion as is Miguel, Eddy, Alberto, Laurent, Bernaud, the list goes on, and so should we. Thank you Nelson Mandela for showing us how…..

The fall 2009 harvesting season was a challenging one to say the least. We will continue to see the repercussions throughout the spring — as temperatures rise, molds may begin to grow again on crops that were stored wet. Because of this issue's continuing impact on crop storage, livestock feed, human and animal health, future planting decisions, and marketing and sales, Extension will keep this page updated with the latest on these topics.
Dealing with moldy corn has been a primary concern. The University of Minnesota Plant Disease Clinic reports that many samples came back Cladosporium, a genus with which no known toxins are associated. You can send samples to the clinic to diagnose and help identify mold and kernel infection. Call them at 612-625-1275 for more information.
See the October 28 news release on late harvest issues
When you're warming grain, condensation will occur just ahead of the warming. If the fan is shut off prematurely, the condensed moisture could freeze. Leaving the fans on until the warming front has passed all the way through the bin can help avoid this problem. Extension's WINFANS software can be used to help estimate airflow and answer other questions.

Baltic GPP
The Baltic GPP project will establish a wide capacity building program on Green Public Procurement (GPP) across the Baltic Sea Region (BSR). The overall aim is to increase the level and uptake of GPP in the entire region. This will be achieved by strengthening and developing the role of National Focal Points in each country as well as raising the knowledge and expertise within Core Procurement Institutions.
Bioenergy Promotion Project
The project aims at strengthening the development towards a sustainable, competitive and territorially integrated Baltic Sea Region in the field of sustainable use of bio-energy.
Electrical and electronic waste recycling in Kaliningrad
In the city of Kaliningrad management of electrical and electronic waste is a burning issue. The city council wants therefore to build a system for electrical and electronic waste collection and disposal. Since 2010, the German Federal Environment Ministry and the German Federal Environmental Agency support the Kaliningrad city administration. IFEU Iserlohn has developed various scenarios how to deal with electrical and electronic waste in a sustainable way in the future.

Miniwaste is a three-year project (January 2010-December 2012), co-funded by the LIFE+ programme of the European Commission. It aims to demonstrate, in accordance with the recent Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC, that it is possible to significantly reduce the amount of organic waste (food and green waste) at the source in a mastered and sustainable way, and to monitor actions for waste reduction in an efficient and helpful manner.
Pre-waste is a three-year European project (2010-2012) whose aim is to help cities and regions to improve their waste prevention policies, in order to significantly reduce waste production and hazardousness. The project will in particular deliver waste prevention best practices implemented in Europe, indicators and monitoring tools and guidelines for planning and implementing waste prevention programmes at local or regional level. Pre-waste is co-funded by the INTERREG IV C programme.
PURE (Project on Urban Reduction of Eutrophication)
The project PURE (Project on Urban Reduction of Eutrophication) implements one of the most cost effective and quickest ways to tackle eutrophication: it enhances phosphorus removal at selected municipal wastewater treatment plants in the Baltic Sea region. PURE partner water utilities aim to achieve an average annual concentration of 0.5 mg phosphorus / litre in outgoing wastewaters. This is the level recommended by the HELCOM Baltic Sea Action Plan to reach a good environmental status of the sea. The project is co-financed by the Baltic Sea Region Program 2007-2013.
REMOWE – Regional Mobilizing of Sustainable Waste-to-Energy Production
REMOWE aims to contribute to a reduction of carbon dioxide emission by creating a balance between energy consumption and sustainable use of renewable energy sources in the Baltic Sea region. Project duration: December 2009 – December 2012. The project is financed by the Baltic Sea Region Programme.
The REMOWE project will focus on energy resources from waste and actions to promote implementation of energy efficient technology within the waste-to-energy area. The aim is to catalyse utilisation of waste from cities, farming and industry for energy purposes (electricity, heat, fuels) in an efficient way in the Baltic Sea region. Project partners from Sweden, Finland, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Germany represent both far developed regions in the field as well as regions in which the level of energy utilisation of waste is currently low. E.g. Germany possesses valuable experiences of producing biogas and these will be shared and transferred through this project to other regions.
The European Week for Waste Reduction
The EWWR is a three-year project supported by the LIFE+ Programme of the European Commission until end 2011. It aims to organise multiple actions during a single week, across Europe, that will raise awareness about waste prevention. During the 2009 and 2010 editions of the EWWR, more than 7000 awareness raising actions have been implemented in more than 20 countries. In 2011, the EWWR will take place between 19 and 27 November.
Waste Governance – European neighbourhood and partnership instrument (ENPI) East
To reduce the risk arising from inappropriate management of wastes in the ENPI East, that thereby create environmental pollution hazards to the community and to natural resources, through co-operation with, and amongst, partner states in the region of Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Russia, and Ukraine.
Waste to resources
The Waste to resources project aims at increasing the use of municipal solid waste as a resource in the South Baltic Sea Area. Householders and SME's awareness and acceptance of waste sorting along with the municipal capacity to handle waste, are crucial parts of a more efficient waste management. By developing best practices and transferring knowledge across borders the Waste to resources project will stimulate sorting of municipal solid waste and raise awareness of the EU five-step waste hierarchy.

firstname.lastname@example.com | |
Position |
Associate Professor
Research Centre for Gender and Health
Office | HMRI 4306, Hmri Building |
AProf Deborah Loxton's health research focuses on women's health and wellbeing with a particular emphasis on the impact of major life events. AProf Loxton has a strong interest in women's reproductive health and has examined health behaviour during pregnancy, cervical cancer screening and abuse, maternal health in the first years of motherhood, and antenatal behaviours associated with negative birth outcomes. She is recognised as an expert in women's health with particular knowledge of intimate partner abuse.
Longitudinal methodology remains one of AProf Loxton's primary research interests, as reflected by her work describing the methods and outcomes of longitudinal data collection and analysis. She has used both quantitative and qualitative and is now undertaking various projects that link longitudinal survey data with other datasets, such as the Midwives Data Collection in NSW, the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) and the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS). AProf Loxton has pursued new methods for examining longitudinal qualitative data. She has chaired two symposia on this topic at an international conference, as well as chairing and convening the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health (ALSWH) Qualitative Health Research Group.
AProf Loxton is the Deputy Director and member of the Steering Committee of the ALSWH at the Priority Research Centre for Gender, Health and Ageing. The ALSWH is a longitudinal cohort study conducted with three age groups (aged 18-23, 45-50 and 70-75 in 1996) of over 40,000 Australian women. AProf Loxton leads the team in currently recruiting a new cohort of 18-23 year olds. She has been responsible for operational oversight of the ALSWH since 2006 including survey design, cohort maintenance, data collection, budget and staff management.
AProf Loxton's ALSWH research responsibilities include contributing to the design and conduct of ALSWH major reports, publications and other forms of dissemination. The most recently released ALSWH report described women's adherence to health guidelines, including pregnancy specific guidelines. AProf Loxton co-led another ALSWH report which focussed on women's reproductive health. The latter was used extensively to develop the National Women's Health Policy of 2010. Other government reports authored by AProf Loxton have covered such topics as the health impact of abuse, domestic violence programs, and barriers to service delivery for young pregnant women and mothers.
AProf Loxton is a chief investigator on two projects: an ARC Linkage Grant (partnered with Family Planning NSW & Bayer Healthcare) that is exploring contraceptive use and access, and a Bupa Foundation grant examining maternal health outcomes in relation to mental health screening. Throughout her career AProf Loxton has been awarded $1,321,881 million in competitive external grant funding, $564,772 in competitive internal grants, and over $14.5 million in government and external consultancy funding.
AProf Loxton has built a national and international profile in her area of research, being an invited speaker and chairing symposia at international and national conferences. She has presented at nine international conferences and has been invited to speak on 15 different occasions at NGO and government events. Her research efforts have resulted in 43 journal publications (six in press), multiple conference presentations, one peer reviewed journal special edition, and ten major research reports for government.
In recognition of her expertise in intimate partner abuse, the Sax Institute commissioned AProf Loxton to produce quarterly reports concerning recent research in domestic and family violence for distribution to NSW state government policy agencies in 2009-10. Additionally, her research on domestic and family violence and sole motherhood has generated significant media interest.

The prognosis has never been better for people with diabetes. The key, say Dr. Howard Baum of Medical City Dallas and Dr. Gregory Clark of UT Southwestern Medical Center, is to take advantage of the latest technologies that help patients monitor blood sugar levels, make careful food selections, exercise and take precautions to prevent the complications that can afflict the heart, kidney, eyes and nerves. Click here for some expert tips along with a look at patients like Dena Bennett, 54, of McKinney with Type 2 diabetes and Connie Hedgecoke, 74, of Garland with Type 1 diabetes, who are thriving.

I've had nothing but great service from all LF retailers I've purchased from.
MPEX is great: They sold me a new lens for just over the price of the same one used, when the used one had already been sold and not removed from their web site.
Badger Graphic is great: They sent me a custom ordered lens without a credit card - they just included the bill with the shipment.
Quality Camera is also great: I custom ordered a grey market lens from them and when it arrived at their shop they called to let me know that they were charging me $100 less than the already aggreed upon low price, due to an improved exchange rate.
I haven't met a nicer and more super honest bunch of people than those involved in LF photography.

Comments about Da Vinci DaVinci Kalani 4-in-1 Convertible Wood Baby Crib w/ Toddler Rail in White:
Given as a gift for an expected grandchild. Nice that it will convert to a youth bed.
Great Crib!
By Blanche
from Southeast VA
About Me First Time Parent
We bought and assembled this a year ago, so we've gotten some use out of it, including lowering the mattress thanks to the start of pulling up.We have had to tighten the screws 1 or 2 times since we put it together (I'm short and end up leaning on the front rail to place our daughter in the crib, especially true now that the mattress is lower), but I suspect that's going to be true of any crib.The wood is a bit soft and does tend to develop dings and bite marks easily so I would suggest purchasing rail protectors before teething begins (learn from my mistake!), but the finish tends to move with the wood and not flake off so it's only obvious up close.One of my favorite things about the crib is there are no sharp corners. Since I can be a klutz, this was important to me, to minimize my chances of bruising myself (and our daughter).Overall I have been very pleased with this crib and would definitely purchase it again if necessary.
Beautiful Crib

About Me Parent of Two or More Children
The crib was very easy to assemble and it is beautiful. The only problem I have is that you can see all of the screws in the wood. It should come with caps for them because they really stand out against the white finish of the crib. We are going to try to find soem that fit from a home improvement store.

KeoTV: Blacks must stick to structures
19 Oct 2011
RYAN VREDE says New Zealand can only beat themselves in the World Cup final against France on Sunday.
55 Comments
20 Oct 2011, 06:12 am@dquinn25(dquinn25)-50: Come on mate..really..in your absolute honest opinion do you consider that the Boks were really a bigger threat to the AB's than Australia?
To quote what Ive said before they were stretched tighter than a fat ladies undies by Wales, they were man handled by Samoa and their game against Samoa showed that they didnt have one beyond kick and chase ( and hope).
This has been the most ineffectual Bok showing in years and the recent performances epitomize that…S15 was gone, Mandela Plate and Freedom Cup was lost, Tri Nations forfeited due to alot of "injuries" and you never fronted once in your defense of the Cup.
So to cry ref this time around is really lame, and even had you made it through by the reverse margin you had against OZ, well look what the AB's did to them. It would have been no better for you.
Go back and re watch the Wales/SA game and then come back and tell us that you think the Boks would have beaten the current AB side! -
20 Oct 2011, 11:32 am@captain fantail(captain fantail)-51:
Boks beat Wales – look in the book; did it with their B game. Killed Wallabies for possession and territory – far more than "brilliant" All Blacks – by all consensus in Australian and UK papers, an inconceivable result.
If you really want to use this spurious logic you go and watch the Boks pumping All Blacks in PE – by biggest margin in 83 years; by your argument Boks would be playng on Sunday.
Boks are like France – terrible sometimes, but irresistable when they bring their A-game to the table – deep down that's why the Kiwis respect us more than any other side, and for good reason.
20 Oct 2011, 14:02 pmHere is the template and model for New Zealand's success. And this is the very reason why I said they'd make the final. Low and behold, nothing's changed at all!
This World Cup has been the most diabolical farce in rugby history. We have a fairly ordinary cheating New Zealand side making it to a final without having played ANY form or quality sides. Unlike our 2007 schedule where we played the form sides that put up the best games, most physically demanding lineup to a final in world cup history! France played Wales, but that game is one of might have beens thanks to that stupid and idiotic Warburton. Thanks IRB, I really enjoyed this corrupt circus. The hack job done on the Boks was disgusting, the pinnacle of corruption to date in the sport, but so many other sides were cheated out of a fair game too. This tournament has been destroyed by the IRB having refs artificially impose garbage on teams and preference to certain sides has been more alive than ever. Enjoy the Victory All Blacks, best title that money can buy, eh?
20 Oct 2011, 20:55 pmWith you on the bulk of these comments mate – wouldn't it make your day if the Frogs pulled the rug from under them – not likely, but if anyone can do it they can, because their Triple-A game, which they play once in a blue moon is irresistable: poetic justice if it happens … don't youthink?
21 Oct 2011, 08:58 am@alucard and @ cowper.
Get over it. You were rated 3rd coming into World Cup. Did all refs conspire to drop you to 3rd? I doubt it. SA just wasn't good enuf despite so much possession. Agree ref wasnt great.Your inference we are an ordinary bunch of cheats would be offensive if it wasn't so funny. What rank are Springboks again – yes down to 4. Never mind. I also recall we beat Australia last week – ranked 2nd – but obviously not a quality side.
You 2 are pathetic, not at all representative of many fine South Africans I know..

News & Analysis
Yoshida in Japan: Tokyo scuttling tech bailouts
Junko Yoshida
NEW YORK – Japan's bureaucracy doesn't like foreign ownership or capital investment in domestic corporations. In the last few months, this aversion has grown more pronounced under the guise of national interest.
That's troubling.
The word in Tokyo while I was there last week was that the private equity firm KKR, which appeared to be targeting Japanese chip maker Renesas, initially had its eye on Hitachi. KKR wanted to break up Hitachi and spin out several smaller but profitable companies, which it hoped to "harvest" for big returns.
[Get a 10% discount on ARM TechCon 2012 conference passes by using promo code EDIT. Click here to learn about the show and register.]
However, as a veteran Japan observer and technology consultant put it recently, "Hitachi is like the Emperor in Japan." No one dares to touch Hitachi. So, KKR switched its focus to struggling Renesas as its investment target.
But KKR's low-ball effort to acquire Renesas also fell through. The reason is Japanese bureaucrats quickly put together a government fund along with partnerships with about 10 companies – mostly the company's own customers – in a bid to buy Renesas for 200 billion yen ($2.55 billion).
While Japan's MCU giant has many problems, a key issue was the slow decision-making process at Renesas. Blame squarely rest with Renesas management. The problem was exacerbated by shareholders like Hitachi, NEC and Mitsubishi Electric, who demanded a say in nearly every Renesas decision over the past two years.
The government's bailout plan calls for piling on more "major" shareholders like Toyota, a customer, potentially hanging an even bigger albatross around Renesas' neck.
More important is the question of whether its customers should also be among it largest shareholders. Automotive customers like Toyota tend to throw their weight around in negotiating prices with chip companies. That throws at least one big customer into direct conflict with Renesas' need to maximize its margins.
Renesas is merely the latest example of Japan's aversion to foreign investment. When Olympus was looking for help earlier this year, two foreign companies, not Sony, sought to invest, according to a source in the financial community. Two potential saviors were Samsung and General Electric. Such an investment by Samsung or GE actually makes sense since each company has experience and a significant presence in the medical electronics market.
Next: Save Sony
The corollary in the U.S. might be behind-the-scenes maneuvering to clear the way for Japan's Softbank to acquire a majority stake in Sprint so China can't grab part of a major U.S. wireless carrier.
KKR and other private equity companies have nothing of value to offer. They will just load a company with debt and not change it for the better.
Amen. Maybe Japan inc. has a few problems, but allowing KKR and its ilk to get involved doesn't benefit anybody (outside of KKR). They won't introduce any desirable reforms, but they will attempt to get rich by plundering a company needing help.
The Japanese bureaucrats are smart to keep KKR out of Japan.
We may all have different opinions as to whether having KKR take over a company is a good thing. (It's a good thing for KKR if they can get a short-term gain, but probably not so much for others, as you pointed out.)
The issue is not just about KKR, though. I am finding it difficult to understand Japanese stubborn refusal to get any foreign capital investment at a time whe it badly needs it.
Tatsuo Kobayashi
I had predicted almost 1.5 months back that there is a good probability of KKR bid not succeeding. With Innovation Network of Japan (INJ) coming in, Renesas will now become a government company. Someone from Toyota or Nissan will become Renesas president. INJ will break Renesas in 2-3 parts. SoC business of Renesas will be merged with the SoC businesses of Fujitsu and Panasonic. However, that new SoC company will not survive for very long because a large part of SoC business has become non-viable for Japan. Renesas will focus on Microcontrollers and Analog products. It will have a revenue of 4-5 billion USD and it will mainly cater to Japanese customers. Renesas employees will be a happy lot as they can continue working in the lethargic manner without having to fear for KKR WHIP and harsh measures anymore. Ultimately tax payers money will be wasted to satisfy the ego of few bureaucrats.
Tatsuo, I do remember your comments predicting good chances for KKR's deal to fall through.
So you called it.
The thing that bothers me is not so much about the government bailout part, but more to do with the lack of clarity when one of Renesas' biggest customers becomes the company's major shareholder...or as you suggest, someone from Toyota becoming Renesas President.
To me, it's not only the conflict of interest, but it's a sure way to confuse Renesas' business model in the future.
This doesn't really come as a surprise, and strikes me as a side-effect of Japanese culture. The motive - to preserve Japan for the Japanese and keep it pure and uncontaminated by outsiders - is understandable and even admirable. The issue is whether that's *possible* in the emerging world, which is increasingly interconnected.
There's an underlying issue that is poised to bite as well: demographics. Japan has a very *low* birth rate, and Japanese simply aren't replacing themselves. Hidenori Sakanaka, a former bureaucrat in Japan's Justice Ministry, is stating that Japan's future requires large scale immigration to provide the people needed: http://www.japantimes.co.jp/text/fl20121021x3.html
There will be enormously strong pressure *against* this idea, and it if happens at all I can see a nasty class division occurring, with foreign immigrants being at best second-class citizens, tolerated because they are necessary, but expected to know their place and not seek to move beyond it.
I can understand Japan blocking KKR's investment in Renesas, since the motives of KKR and others like them tend to be short-term payoffs with less concern for the long-term health of the company invested in. But blocking foreign investment period does seem suicidal. Just as Japan is looking at simply not having enough people, it will also confront not having sufficient capital to fund all its investment needs, and will have no choice but to allow outside investment. The question is how bad things will have to get, and how much damage will be done to Japan in the process, before the hard-line nationalists are forced to accept reality.
Businesses have to change, sometimes radically, to survive in changing economies. It's evident Japan as a nation will have to change dramatically, too, with the Japan of 50 or 100 years from now bearing little relationship to what it is today. The questions are whether it can, and what will happen if it doesn't.
how can a Japanese journalist not understand.
Japanese quality. Captain goes down with it's ship.

SOURCE: Home Destination
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced a set of new rules to prevent foreclosures that focus on mortgage servicers, which gather loan payments and assist mortgage borrowers who are having trouble making their payments. Home Destination, a Minneapolis residential Realtor and professional with RE/MAX Results comments as a Certified Distressed Property Expert on how this benefits homeowners.
Minneapolis, Minnesota (PRWEB) January 18, 2013
The Consumer Finance Protections Bureau (CFPB is establishing stronger foreclosure protections for homeowners due to the realities that the mortgage servicing industry has "experienced problems with bad practices and sloppy recordkeeping. As millions of borrowers fell behind on their loans". With a heavier work load as foreclosure filings increased, many servicers were unable to provide adequate services necessary to meet responsible homeowners' needs.
"As the housing market begins 2013 it is saturated with millions of distressed homeowners and homeowners continuing to experience serious problems gaining a timely response after requesting a home loan modification or other alternatives to avoid foreclosure," says Jenna Thuening, owner of Home Destination.
"Many (mortgage servicers) simply had not made the investments in resources and infrastructure to service large numbers of delinquent loans, Consumers complained about getting the runaround and being hit with costly surprises," states the Bureau.
The CFPB's mortgage servicing rules ensure that fraught home loan borrowers get a fair process to avoid foreclosure. Struggling homeowners seeking mortgage debt relief shouldn't have to worry about mortgage servicers cutting corners or losing applications for relief. They should be told about their options and given time to apply and be considered for loan modifications and other alternatives. Most of all, they shouldn't be surprised by the start of a foreclosure proceeding until they have had time to explore all available foreclosure alternatives help. Responsible homeowners who take action promptly to seek foreclosure alternatives, should not face a looming foreclosure sale before their applications have been fairly evaluated.
The CFPB is amending Regulation X, which implements the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974, and implementing a commentary that sets forth an official interpretation to the regulation. The CFPB is also amending Regulation Z, which implements the Truth in Lending Act and the official interpretation to the regulation, which interprets the requirements of Regulation Z. These final rules implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act regarding mortgage loan servicing.
Home Destination Sees The Top New Protections For Struggling Home Borrowers As:
1) Notification of Foreclosure Alternatives: Servicers must let homeowners that borrow a home loan know about their "loss mitigation options" to retain their home after borrowers have missed two consecutive payments. They must provide them a written notice that includes examples of options that might be available to them as alternatives to foreclosure and instructions for how to obtain more information.
2) Restricted Dual-Tracking: Under the CFPB's new rules, dual-tracking, which is when the servicer moves forward with foreclosure while simultaneously working with the borrower to avoid foreclosure, is restricted.
3) Direct and Ongoing Access to Servicing Personnel: Servicers must have policies and procedures in place to provide delinquent borrowers with direct, easy, ongoing access to employees responsible for helping them.
4) Fair Review Process: The servicer must consider all foreclosure alternatives available from the mortgage owners or investors – those who hold the decision-making power over the homeowner's loan – to help the struggling homeowner retain the home loan and remain in their home.
5) Foreclosure Sales Not Allowed Before All Other Alternatives Are Considered: Servicers must consider and respond to a homeowner's loan modification application if it arrives at least 37 days before a scheduled foreclosure sale. If the servicer offers an alternative to foreclosure, they must give the borrower time to accept the offer before moving for foreclosure judgment or conducting a foreclosure sale.
6) Borrower Recourse: Servicers must explain why they have rejected a delinquent homeowner's application for a loan modification if the application is received more than 37 days before a foreclosure sale.
"Mortgage servicers who choose to be indifferent to the plight of consumers will now be subject to these mandatory rules," said Richard Cordray, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. With a strong housing recovery well in progress and worthy of nourishing along, drawing along side struggling homeowners and making sure care is given to keep homeowners in their homes is clearly a top priority. Mortgage servicers must work to provide foreclosure help and solutions.
It's unclear whether the new rules will make obtaining a home loan more or less available in general. "Some industry critics say that by imposing stricter standards for who can get a mortgage, the rules will put a crimp in lending. On the other hand, others say that finally having the rules in place eliminates uncertainty for lenders, while new liability protections will allow them to lend with confidence," says NASDAQ's webpage.
Homeowners being forced into the Minnesota foreclosure timeline, don't walk away from your mortgage. Call Home Destination at 612-396-7832 and gain the guidance of a skilled Certified Distressed Property Expert.

The Logan High School boys' basketball team seems to be turning the corner.
Tuesday night's 45-40 win at Lincoln County was the third straight for the Wildcats, which improved to 5-6 on the season.
Lincoln County dropped to 6-7 with the loss.
Chase Preston and Zak Miller tallied 11 points each to lead the Wildcats. Miller hit three 3-pointers on the night — all coming in the first half.
Z. Minnick had seven points, while Trent Dalton and Worm Street netted five each. C.J. Williams had four and A.J. Reynolds two.
T.J. Arbaugh had 17 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Panthers while Kenny Holton finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Andrew Davis had nine points.
Both teams combined to make 18 3-pointers on the night. Arbaugh connected on five 3s for the Panthers.
Logan led for most of the game, only trailing 3-1 early in the first quarter.
The Wildcats led 9-5 after one, 28-22 at the half and 39-35 after three. Logan then edged Lincoln County 6-5 in the low-scoring fourth quarter to set the final score.
The Panthers got to within one at 41-40 in the fourth quarter.
Logan then scored a bucket and drained two free throws to put Lincoln County away.
Back in the first quarter, Dalton's basket tied it up 3-3.
Miller then put Logan up for good, 6-3, with a 3-pointer. He then canned another trey to put Logan on top by four after one quarter of play.
The Cats then expanded their second quarter lead to 26-14 — their largest of the game — after makes from beyond the 3-point arc by Miller, Minnick and Dalton. A putback by Williams finished off the run.
A drive to the lane by Reynolds gave Logan a 28-22 lead at the half.
The Panthers were able to claw back in the third period. After two Davis three throws and a Davis hoop, Lincoln County trailed just 30-26.
Preston, however, answered with a 3-ball to make it 33-26.
Arbaugh came back, though, with a 3 of his own to cut the margin to 37-32.
Another 3 — this one by Davis — pulled Lincoln County to within 39-35 after three periods.
Logan is scheduled to return to action next Tuesday at home against Tug Valley. Tug, last year's Class AA state champions, have dropped down to Single-A status this season.
The Panthers are 8-1 going into Friday night's game at Westside. Tug Valley then hosts 3A Riverside on Saturday night before heading to Logan.
Tug Valley routed county rival Mingo Central, 66-45, on Monday night at Newtown.
The only loss this season by the Panthers was a 80-76 setback on Dec. 29 at Belfry, Ky.
Tug Valley swept the two-game season series with Logan last season.
The Panthers are led by guards Mikey Newsome, Austin Brewer and Aaron Muncy. Brewer tossed in 21 points in the win over the Mingo Central Miners. Thomas Baisden pitched in 20 points.

NEW YORK (AP) - Health officials say the worst of the flu season appears to be over.
The number of states reporting intense or widespread flu dropped again last week. By some measures, flu activity has been ebbing for at least four weeks. Deaths from the flu or pneumonia have been dropping for two weeks.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released the latest flu numbers on Friday.
This flu season started about a month earlier than normal. Outbreaks began in the late fall, and the dominant flu strain is one that tends to make people sicker.
It's been nine years since a flu season started like this one, and that proved to be 1 of the deadliest. So far, this season has been labeled moderately severe.
