Welcome to my
As you probably know, you can download my GTA:VC mod here.
Why mod the game?
- It's a brilliant game, but after you've finished it, it may never come off the shelves again. When modding the game, you add some life to the game, and basically make it fun all over again. Also some people are 'frustrated' with the fact that the cars in the game don't look like real cars. When modding a game, you can call the car what you want...
What did you do?
- A lot of skinning, and no modelling, basically. Making a single car model takes several months, so it would have been impossible for me to make several cars while the game is still current. I used models made by other people, and inserted them into the game. This is not as easy as it may seem: there are serious difficulties when making all cars co-exist in the game. Other full-mod makers have had to cancel their projects because they couldn't make it work. What have I done different? I don't know. I guess I got lucky ;)
Where are you taking this?
- I have currently replaced about 60 vehicles in the game, which is quite a lot. I have also changed loading screens and several textures in the game. The intent is to change every vehicle and a lot of landmarks in the game. I'd also like to add some new buildings, if I like them. So far I have not found one extra building I liked and that could be inserted into the game without problems.
Is modding the game hard?
- Not at all. You need the right tools, and a lot of time. I learnt a lot from modding GTA3, so I had a small head-start. But if you want to do it yourself, just try and you'll see it's not that hard - at all. All the tools and information you need can be found online.
I think this is really cool! Can I help?
- Sure. You can always make suggestions about new cars you like, I might test them and put them in one of the mods. You can also do other things, like tune a car or change the colors. If they're any good, send them to me and I'll take a look. If you make some significant changes, you will be credited (maybe not in-game, the texture I use is a bit too small for that). However, do NOT send me mails with attachments. Just put the attachments online and mail me the link. Hotmail-mailboxes are really - really small.

Men's basketball shows marked improvement from last season
Twenty-two games into the 2015-2016 season, the Rice men's basketball team sported a 7-15 record and a 2-6 mark in Conference USA. The team had lost crucial players in the frontcourt and backcourt, and there was little hope of a Conference USA crown and NCAA tournament appearance.
Now, 22 games into the 20-2017 season, the Owls are 14-8 overall and 4-5 in C-USA. Head coach Mike Rhoades starts two players, sophomore guard Marcus Evans and junior forward Egor Koulechov, who both average more than 18 points per game. As many as 11 players are receiving valuable minutes every week. Enlarged and electrified crowds at Tudor Fieldhouse support the team's belief that this Rice team can legitimately contend for the C-USA title.
Last Saturday's victory against the University of North Carolina, Charlotte epitomized the growth this Rice men's basketball team has made. Last year, the Owls lost both of their season meetings as well as a conference tournament showdown to the 49ers. This year, Rice has defeated Charlotte in both of their encounters.
Rhoades said his team is focusing more on its own play instead of its opponents, keeping last season's disappoints in the background.
"If you are a competitor, you remember the last time you play a team, win or lose," Rhoades said. "Last year, they beat us pretty good. Regardless, I think it is more about how we play, not who we play. Losing last year doesn't help us the next one."
The Owls have been able to focus on their playing style with increased talent and depth on this season's roster. According to Rhoades, the Owls are capable of giving ten players significant playing time.
"I want to get ten players over ten minutes. It creates great competition and morale," Rhoades said. "Guys like [freshman forward] Tim [Harrison], [freshman forward] Austin [Meyer] and [junior forward] Bishop [Mency] are just coming into their own on the court and we want to get them as much game action and possible."
Despite Rhoades' effort to disperse playing time, the Owls' are likely to continue to relying on the playmaking abilities of Evans, Koulechov and sophomore guard Connor Cashaw. According to Rhoades, Koulechov offers Rice a dynamic scoring threat at forward.
"He can shoot threes or he can loosen up with some dribble moves and get to the basket," Rhoades said. "We have so many playmakers on our team. Combining them with a versatile four-man is lethal. I wouldn't want to guard him."
Although the Owls are ripe with dynamic playmaking and crisp shooting, several Rice players emphasized team chemistry, focus, and grit over the course of a long season. Cashaw said his team cannot afford to relax if it wants to compete for a conference championship.
"We have to build our chemistry and recognize what each player can do," Cashaw said. "We cannot take reps off in practice. We have to handle losses and take them as a learning experience."
Other teammates have echoed similar sentiments. According to Evans, the Owls must provide maximum effort and intensity each game.
"Little hustle plays can completely change the outcome of the game," Evans said. "The effort players like [freshman guard] Chad [Lott] demonstrates energizes our team and makes everybody excited."
With nine games left in the conference season, this Rice team is anything but complacent. Coaches and players alike emphasized treating each game as the last game of the year. Evans said his teammates should not take their newfound success for granted.
"In our league, any team can catch fire no matter what their record is," Evans said. "We have to be equally prepared for any opponent we face on the floor."
As a coach who dreams of a gritty, devoted student fan base, Rhoades is not willing to accept this season's improved results. Rhoades said his message is simple: This Owls squad will always play with a chip on their shoulder.
"It is really hard to win on the road no matter who you play," Rhoades said. "Every team has talented players no matter what their record. We have been a bottom-feeder for so long and no team is afraid of us. We have to prove ourselves every time we go out on the court."
The Owls will have yet another chance to prove themselves when they take the court Saturday, Feb. 4 in Denton, Texas against the University of North Texas (6-15).

The Steelers got back a weapon today to their offense, as the NFL officially announced the lifting of the suspension for wide receiver Martavis Bryant on a conditional basis.
Steelers GM Kevin Colbert put out the following statement following the NFL's announcement:
Martavis Bryant has followed the protocol and has been conditionally reinstated by the National Football League. We appreciate that he has taken the necessary steps in an effort to get his personal life in order. We also understand this is just the beginning as he works to return to the team and meet all of the conditions of his reinstatement.
We look forward to working with Martavis to ensure that he is mentally and physically prepared to contribute to our efforts on the field, while also maintaining the proper balance to keep his life in order off the field.
The NFL Stated in their release that they would evaluate the progress of Bryant before the start of the season:
The NFL notified MARTAVIS BRYANT of the Pittsburgh Steelers today that he has been reinstated to the NFL on a conditional basis.
Bryant may join the Steelers at the training facility and participate in meetings, conditioning work and similar activities. Once arrangements have been confirmed regarding Bryant's clinical resources in Pittsburgh, he will be permitted to participate in all preseason activities, including practices and games.
Prior to the start of the regular season, the NFL will review Bryant's progress. Based on his compliance and engagement with his program and resources, he will be permitted to participate in all regular season activities beginning in Week 1. He will be evaluated later in the season for full reinstatement.
Bryant had been suspended since March 2016 without pay following multiple violations of the NFL-NFLPA Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.

My cupboard is a mess. I don't have the organizational skills of someone I know who has everything stored away in cute little glass jars, and thus when cooking, only needs to open the lids, pour and smile. No. I cut open a bag and then clip it with a mini alligator clip or tie an elastic band around it. Result? Many many bags, spillage, a cluttered cupboard, and worst of all, migrating tastes and smells. Example? I made granola awhile ago. When my partner bit into a piece, he said "Am I crazy, or do I taste cumin?" Cumin, one of my most favourite spices and the strongest smelling one in the cupboard, had infused the dried cranberries. Another example: I made mango coconut muffins the other day, and my mom complained that they tasted like Indian curry (she hates cardamom and cumin with a passion). Again, where did I find the bag of shredded coconut? Right next to the ... cardamom pods. Although my partner loved the hint of cumin (and apparently pepper) in the granola, my mom was less than impressed about the curry-scented muffins.
Oh dear! Am I going to change my ways? Am I going to organize my cupboard so that spices go on one side and dried fruits go on the other and everything is sealed in cute glass jars so that no mixing of flavours occurs? Probably not. But I'm working on it. One day, I will become organized, but for now, I'll just settle for a nutritious, quick dinner with all my favourite flavours while using up some grains.
I had a little of this and a little of that all still stored in their original bags, so to save space, I used them up. I mixed all the little bits of grains and legumes in my cupboard, cooked them with a healthy dose of spice, added some hearty green veg and made my favourite dish: curry with lots of cumin and lemon. It's the perfect "comfort in one bowl" type of dinner, but without the richness of restaurant curry made with butter and cream. Because I used barley and lentils, the liquid thickened up without me needing to add flour or corn starch. The spices were absolutely heavenly. With a dollop of skim milk yogurt on top, you've got a meal in one bowl with all the food groups. And a bonus: whole grain + legume = complete protein. Plus, it gets tastier as it sits in the fridge and the flavours meld. Perfect! A healthy, tasty, leftover-friendly meal that cleans out my cupboard.
Now ... if only I could get organized ... ;)
Curried Grains and Legumes with Rainbow Chard
a bunch of rainbow chard - stems cut up small, leaves cut into ribbons
1 large carrot diced
1 stalk of celery diced
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 small onion diced
a little chunk of ginger finely chopped
2 teaspoons of cumin
2 teaspoons of curry powder (I used Malaysian curry powder)
zest and juice of onelemon
2 lime leaves
4 cardamom pods
4 curry leaves
1 cup of mixed grains and legumes (I used, brown rice, pearl barley, yellow split peas and red lentils)
3-4 cups of water or vegetable stock
salt and pepper to taste
1. Saute the onions, chard stems, carrots, celery, ginger and garlic for about 3 minutes or until you start to really smell the ginger.
2. Add the lemon zest, cumin and curry powder and cardamom pods and stir. Cook for about 1 minute so the spices toast.
3. Add the mixed grains and legumes and stir until everything is coated.
4. Add the water or stock, lime and curry leaves, and give it a big stir.
5. Bring it up to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, covered, for about 10 minutes, then add the chard leaves and more water/stock if needed. Cook for another 10-15 minutes or until the grains and legumes are at the texture you like. My lentils had melted away, rice and barley was nice and chewy and split peas had a bit of bite.
6. Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Try your best to fish out the curry leaves, lime leaves and cardamom pods. Enjoy a bowl topped with skim-milk yogurt and an extra squeeze of lemon if you like.

Brian and I arrived in Rome at 10:30 the next morning, the 19th, and he left for the airport while I went to the hotel. I had said goodbye to Nice in the morning before leaving while she was still half asleep at 6:30. So, either because she was asleep or because of her general positive nature, I did not feel the gut wrenching unhappiness at leaving which I had envisioned myself feeling. I will see her again, I'm sure of it. Brian's departure, however, was a bit harder because it finally signified the end of Parma. I know I'll see Brian soon and that I've made a life-long friend with whom I plan on spending lots of time in the future, but his leaving left me alone in Rome, as I had started this adventure, waiting to go back to America instead of waiting to begin a brand new semester in Italy. How could I possibly say goodbye to this place?
Well, I was in Rome which meant that I had plenty of things to see and occupy my time until Courtney arrived that night from Granada. I dropped my stuff off at the hotel and went to the Villa Borghese where I had reserved time to visit the museum from 1-3. I had not been there in three years but once I found the museum, located in a giant park, I instantly recognized where I stood. An accordionist played beautiful music on the 'via' leading up to the museum. I walked around the fountain where three and half years ago I sat wearing a Michael Jordan jersey (not acceptable style in Italy) in the middle of summer with Mom and Rich as we waited to enter. How had it taken me more than three years to return to this temple of Baroque art and Bernini sculpture? I blogged sitting on a park bench in the slightly chilly, damp air and enjoyed the music. Life was good. I was seeing one of the most beautiful museums in the world and would be joined tonight by my wonderfully amazing girlfriend Courtney.
I entered the museum at 1 and followed the course of the rooms, stopping in each to be
stunned by the floor to ceiling marble, decorations and frescoes. In each room a sculpture lay at the center, usually of Bernini, surrounded by other priceless pieces of art that gave each room a theme. There was the David room with Bernini's magnificent interpretation of the topic surrounded by paintings of the same biblical story. There was the room of Emperors where porphyry busts of Roman emperors surrounded tables of porphyry and mythical sculptures. Throughout the entire museum composed as such, the most stunning sculpture, one where Apollo attempts to kidnap a woodnymph who asks her father to be turned into a tree, is, ironically, the one in a room entitled 'The Gladiator Room' which has little to do with the central sculpture. This sculpture, though, is second to only the David in its magnificence. Bernini's masterpiece captures the moment that the woodnymph begins to turn into a tree as she pushes Apollo away who is grabbing at her waist. The faces are so real that one thinks the transformation is actually happening. Her hands have begun to turn into branches with leaves extend out of them seeming to suspend in the air and her body has begun to transform into the trunk of a tree. Leaves flutter around her as she turns to escape Apollo. There is motion, there is reality. The flesh of stone looks too real so that I honestly thought I could touch the sculptures and feel human. The sight literally takes the breath away. How could anybody capture such emotion, such motion, such reality in stone? How can one express this reality with a chisel? The sculpture is too real to be stone, it seems impossible. Yet there it is, sculpted from a single block of marble. I looked at it for a very long time walking from the back to the front, as Bernini meant it to happen, so that I actually saw the wood nymph transforming in her attempt to escape Apollo. Walking around the sculpture was like watching a short movie with a beginning and an end. I could barely believe it.
Unfortunately, while I was staring at one of the most impressive pieces of art which I have ever seen, I received a call from a very sick Courtney who told me that the Granada airport had been shutdown due to tornado like conditions and that she would have to take a bus to Malaga, fly to Barcelona and then catch a flight to Rome. It seemed too much, but I figured she would make it to the city eventually. The beautiful museum, and my general lack of sleep for the past week, left me too tired to continue sightseeing. I went back to the hotel and spent the afternoon hanging out waiting to hear from Courtney. She boarded a flight to Barcelona at 5, meaning she would miss her 6 o'clock connection to Rome, but I was still confident that she would make it. She told me she would call when she landed. The hours ticked by and come 8:00 I had still not heard from her. I was extremely worried, as Courtney's mom knows, but unlike in the past I did not begin to freak out or panic. She would call me and she would make it eventually. I had to leave for the airport at 8:30 regardless to pick her up. As I was preparing to leave we finally heard from her. She would be landing at around 10:15 in Rome. I relaxed and went off to get her. Still, regardless that I was worried, I feel that I have begun to improve on my anxiety and pessimism. What could worrying do about it? Courtney would make it eventually.
The saga was not over, however. At the airport I found Courtney near baggage claim looking absolutely miserable and sitting next to an empty turnstile. She was feverish and really sick. Her bags had not come and in her sickness she had to deal with the emotions of leaving Granada behind, besides the horrendous day she had traveling. I took her to the customer service desk where we were assured that her bags would arrive at the hotel the next day. I brought Courtney back to the hotel and tried to put her to bed. It was nearly one when we got home and we had reservations for the Vatican at 8:30 the next morning.

The course was excellent. I did not have enough time for all the optional videos, but I still feel like I learned a ton and I can always come back to them later, which is great. This specialization feels like it's getting a little easier for me with every course, which means that it's very well constructed and doing what it's supposed to do.

Party City Holdco Inc, the largest U.S. party goods retailer, said it expects to raise up to $372 million in an initial public offering of its shares.
Continue Reading Below
The company, backed by buyout firm Thomas H. Lee Partners LP, said it expects the offering of 21.9 million shares to be priced at between $15 and $17 per share.
Party City is valued at $1.97 billion at the high-end of the range. (http://bit.ly/1MXcT8W)
The company, which operates 900 party superstores in the United States and Canada, has grown through the acquisitions of Party City, Party America Corp, Factory Card & Party Outlet, Party Packagers and iParty Corp.
Founded in 1947, Party City offers decorated party supplies including paper and plastic tableware, metallic and latex balloons, novelties, stationery and gifts for everyday.
Thomas H. Lee acquired a majority stake in Party City in a $2.69 billion deal from private equity peers Advent International Corp, Berkshire Partners LLC and Weston Presidio in 2012. It currently holds an about 69 percent stake, while Advent holds about 24 percent.
Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc, Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley are lead underwriters to the offering.
Thomas H. Lee's stake will be diluted to about 56 percent after the offering if the underwriters do not exercise their option.
Party City, which offers products in more than 100 countries, reported revenue of about $2.27 billion and net income of $56.1 million for the year ended Dec. 31.
It has about $2.18 billion in debt as of Dec. 31.
The company, which filed for the IPO last year, intends to list under the symbol "PRTY" on the New York Stock Exchange. (Reporting by Neha Dimri in Bengaluru; Editing by Maju Samuel)

As i watched the rivals of jesus on youtube, i notice a man with similar powers as jesus, also born miraculously, but he dies of old age, and descends to heaven by choir. The christians uses that man and makes their own Jesus Christ. Maybe the reason Jesus does not answer was because he was just an image of the other man. I don't know his name but it starts with an A.
This is one that shows Christianity is just a cop out from other religions. They stole other religions stories and claims it was true religion. Also, many stories of people in the past seems to bve, if any of them truly exists, seem to rival to what Jesus is as the messiah, God, son of God, and so on. also some of the rivals share similar parts to Jesus, which makes it complicated. Are any of them true? Who knows, but one thing for sure, Jesus' story sure as hell ain't true, because many of Jesus' story is modeled by many other religious believers' stories. And not just that. The entire book the Bible is modeled and stories are stolen from many other religions stories. They claim it is all true.
This explains why we find no concrete evidence for any of the stories, especially Jesus'. It is all false and the doctrine of christianity is modeled from all other religions they heard of.

Enjoying some retail therapy this weekend, Justin Bieber hit the shops in Venice Beach, California on Saturday (November 16).
The "Beauty and a Beat" singer wore a blue T-shirt, white baseball cap, and black pants as he took time out to greet fans.
Just the night before, the 19-year-old pop star hosted a pretty wild bash at his home in Calabasas with about 100 guests, including Snoop Lion.
According to TMZ, things got a little noisy and police were called by a neighbor. Though cops told the Biebs to quiet down, they had to come out two more times, ending at around 5:30 am when the neighbor finally filed a disturbing the peace police report.

Nothing will ever be attempted, if all possible objections must first be overcome.
- Samuel Johnson
Before Nike said, "Just Do It", Mr Johnson had the right idea. With ANYTHING worth doing there will ALWAYS be naysayers or as I like to call them "HESITHATERZ".
Hating by hesitation. They don't want you to succeed so they attempt to dissuade you and fill your head with doubt. Make you hesitate and therefore HOLD YOU BACK!
When you feel confident about something and you have no doubt? Then move ahead, move upward and and move on!
There is a reason why some voting topics need not be unanimous but only the majority. Because very rarely will you get unanimous agreement on a matter. So too in YOUR life. However, the difference is YOU hold the voting majority. When you have made a decision -then do it and most importantly- SEE IT THROUGH!
You have the courage to start? Good now have the fortitude to FINISH! Yes- See it through!
You've got TODAY people and ONLY today- Make it count!
Have a great day. Now go do and #bebetter!

Before heading to Beaches Turks & Caicos I had pretty high expectations for the level of service we would receive. With Sandals (which owns Beaches) highly regarded as the standard for all-inclusives, I was excited to compare it against other resorts my wife I have visited. Here was our experience:
Housekeeping: My expectations are simple when it comes to housekeeping. The room should be cleaned each day before late afternoon, and if there is an issue it should be resolved within a reasonable timeframe. Beaches Turks & Caicos did a great job of getting the room cleaned before late afternoon. During our stay, we never returned to shower and dress for dinner to find housekeeping busy cleaning the room. Perfect!
We did encounter a problem resolving an issue we had. My oldest son lost the best-of-three rocks / paper/ scissors and would be sleeping on the foldout chair-bed on this trip. After searching the room, we discovered there were no linens for his bed. A quick call to the front desk, and linens were on their way… or so we thought. When we returned from dinner there were no linens. Since everyone was tired we decided to just make it work and deal with it the next day. The next morning we called the font desk again and then headed out for the day. When we returned that afternoon there were still no linens! Another call was placed to the front desk with an offer for me to come down and pick them up. They promised they would send them right up. A few minutes later the linens arrived.
Restaurants: It is hard to explain my expectations for restaurant service. Just like in Goldilocks and the Three Bears there is restaurant service that is over the top, service that is below standard, and service that is just right. I would say my experience at Beaches Turks & Caicos falls somewhere between just right and below standard. There is no single event, or group of events, that makes me say this. I would just sum up the restaurant service as "meh".
I need to call out the great service staff at the Indian restaurant though. My wife has a few foods that she tries to avoid as they can upset her stomach. One of these foods is tomato. Normally there is something on the menu she can eat, but in this case EVERY dish had tomatoes in it! When the wait staff found out, they insisted she order whatever she wanted and they would get it made. While the rest of us sampled the Indian food she enjoyed a tomato-free steak dinner. This is an example of service that is "just right".
Pool Service: I am not that guy that expects someone to always be refreshing my umbrella drink before I finish it. I am not afraid to make a trip to the swim up bar to order my own Rum & Coke, or bring back a round for the entire group. It may be the only exercise I get that day! However, a once-every-few-drinks pool service is, I believe, a fair expectation.
During our time at Beaches Turks & Caicos we tried all but one of the main pools. At nearly every pool we encountered pool service. In general we found it to be too infrequent to really use it. It seemed they would show up to take our order when we didn't need drinks (because we had just gotten our own), or they were so slow we could get our own drinks faster.
Like the exception to the rule we found Miledy (pronounced "Mi-lady") at the Cascades Pool. She was awesome. It was almost like having our own personal pool service. She would bring us a round of drinks and then re-appear with another round just about the time we were done. She did such a great job that one day we drank the bar out of Pina Coladas!
Bartenders: Bartending at an all-inclusive vacation resort strikes me as the kind of job that gives back based on what's put into it. What do I mean? The job is to make drinks for people that are relaxed, on vacation, and looking to have a good time. Sure, there are the people that have drunk too much, people that like to complain, and people that like their drink mixed a very specific way, but these are the minority. I understand that the bar can get busy and maybe even overwhelming at times, but if pleasantry is projected to this crowd, they will give it back.
Nearly ever time I went to the bar for a drink at Beaches Turks & Caicos I felt as though I was bothering the bartender. After waiting my turn to order, they would not say anything, just look up and wait for me to order. They'd then go to work making the drink, place it in front of me, and then move on to their next task without so much as a word. At first I thought maybe it was a language thing, but after a week of the same experience at nearly every bar on the property I decided it was that simple.
Internet: Beaches Turks & Caicos offers a free wi-fi Internet service around the resort as well as a paid premium option. Since both of my kids are older and have iPhones I was excited that I would be able to get ahold of them by text message. In reality, the wi-fi access was so spotty it was useless. Even in our room we could not stay connected. When I asked at the font desk they said, "Yeah, it does not work very well in the rooms." To be honest it really only worked around the main buildings and in the lobbies for me.
If I had to sum up the service issues we encountered at Beaches Turks & Caicos I'd say it is a culture problem. Not culture in the sense of, "That's the way the people of Turks & Caicos are" but in the corporate sense. At some point it became acceptable to provide meh-level service, and like a cancer it spread to all areas of the resort. Sure, there are exceptions like Miledy at the Cascades Pool and Jake & Chris that my kids raved about at the water park, but overall the service was not what I had expected.
While the service did not live up to my expectations it would not be fair to Beaches Turks & Caicos if I did not also say that my family thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The issues we saw at the Dive Center and with the overall service in no way ruined our vacation. I'd go back tomorrow! In fact, my wife and I leave in a few weeks to check out Sandals Montego Bay in Jamaica. Jamaica is the birthplace of Sandals / Beaches so I am hoping to have only positive things to say when I post about our trip and compare Beaches to Sandals upon our return.
I do not usually add a comment like this at the end of post. But, this is by far the most negative-feeling post I have ever written. My goal was not to exaggerate, but to communicate what I had personally experienced and observed during our trip. I wanted to be honest and fair. After writing and re-writing this post I feel I have achieved this. If you have been to Beaches Turks & Caicos your experience may have been different. If you experienced great service, or a standout employee, please use the comments section below to call it out.
UPDATE. Within a couple of days of tweeting this review I was contacted by the Beaches social media team and asked to email their customer service department. I did. I received a very quick response asking for the details of my trip and any issues that I had so they could look into it. I responded with links to all of my blog posts and indicated that I had no single issue that needed to be looked into. However, if they felt that anything in my reviews would be helpful to the resort management they should feel free to forward them on.
Nine days later I received an email from the hotel manager at Beaches Turks & Caicos saying that my email had been received and reviewed. My comments had been 'passed on to the relevant persons for attention and necessary enhancements.'
For an organization as big at Sandal / Beaches I am impressed that my tweet made its way through the organization to the hotel manger who then responded.

This an extended version of an interview used as the basis for an article published in the Wall Street Journal on January 26. It was republished as a Q&A at reason.com and it appears on NOW Lebanon by permission.The first commissioner of the UN investigation team into the Hariri assassination was Detlev Mehlis, a Berlin native who is now a senior prosecutor at the city's Superior Prosecutor's Office. His successor was the Belgian Serge Brammertz, who recently left the Hariri investigation to take up duties as prosecutor of the special tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. A Canadian, Daniel Bellemare, has replaced Brammertz, and once the investigation is completed he is expected to become the first prosecutor of the Hariri tribunal. After two years of virtual silence, Mehlis agreed to go on the record for a Wall Street Journal interview I conducted with him, in which he criticized the slow progress in the investigation. This is an expanded version of that interview, which took place in Berlin. NOW Lebanon: For a long time after you left your post as commissioner of the United Nations-mandated Hariri inquiry in December 2005, you refused to go on the record to talk about the case. Why do so now? Detlev Mehlis: My successor, Serge Brammertz, has just left after two years on the job, and a new commissioner, Daniel Bellemare, has been installed. So it's a good time for a summing up on my part. To have spoken up earlier would have created an impression of interfering in the investigation. I also feel I owe it to the people I worked with during my eight months as commissioner. This is my final statement, except for one exception when I will be interviewed by a German newspaper. NOW: Recently, however, you did go on the record to tell a Frankfurt daily that you "regretted" having left the investigation in December 2005. Why did you say this? Mehlis: From what I am hearing, the investigation has lost all the momentum it had [when Brammertz took over] in January 2006. Had I stayed on, I would have handled things differently. But I couldn't stay because the UN told me that for security reasons, I could no longer remain in Lebanon after January 2006. They offered to relocate me outside the country, but this was impossible for me. The permanent representative of Germany at the UN told the organization that it would be unacceptable for a German prosecutor to stay away from his team in Beirut. I fully agreed with this. I also left for professional and family reasons. NOW: What would you have done differently than Brammertz? Mehlis: Above all I would have continued informing the UN Security Council and the Lebanese on progress in the investigation. When I arrived in Beirut, I said that participation of the media was central for democracy. The Lebanese public has to be informed, even if there are setbacks in the investigation. In a democracy, people have the right to know, particularly when a prime minister was murdered and people don't trust the authorities. This was an opportunity to restore credibility to the justice system. There is also a practical rationale: To have the support of the public, to encourage witnesses to come forward with information, and for governments to send specialized investigators, you need to give them an idea of what you are doing. NOW: What makes you think that Brammertz has not moved forward? After all, he wrote in his reports that he had identified "persons of interest." Mehlis: Unfortunately, I haven't seen a word in his reports during the past two years confirming that he has moved forward. When I left, we were ready to name suspects, but [the investigation] seems not to have progressed from that stage. There is no judicial term that I have ever heard of called a "person of interest." You have suspects, and a "person of interest" is definitely not a suspect. If you have identified suspects in a case like this one, you don't allow them to roam free for years to tamper with evidence, flee the country or commit similar crimes.
NOW: But what if Brammertz did not reveal his information for tactical reasons? He has defended preserving the "secrecy of the investigation."
Mehlis: I don't accept the concept of the "secrecy of the investigation," nor is it a judicial principle that I know. For me, as a German, the notion of a secret investigation sounds ominous. For the reasons I outlined earlier, the public has the right to know, and the UN Commission has to inform without endangering its investigation. NOW: Brammertz reopened the crime scene after he took over from you. What was your reaction to that move? Mehlis: I wondered what he was doing. We already had Swiss, French and German expert opinion indicating that the explosion that killed Hariri was beyond doubt an above-ground explosion. By reopening the crime scene, he cast doubt on the credibility of the investigation that I had led. He also wasted valuable time and manpower. All this only to end up confirming our initial findings. But this is typical of a broader problem, namely that in the past two years, the UN investigation has told us little we didn't already know before Brammertz became commissioner. We are now told that Hariri was killed for political reasons and that there were several layers of participation in the conspiracy. We needed two years of investigative endeavor to discover this? But let me hasten to add that my criticism is not personal. I'm the one who recommended Brammertz, among others, for the post of commissioner, so I must bear some responsibility for what happened afterward. NOW: Do you feel Brammertz's silence may have been due to his fear that being more open about the inquiry might have led to political conflict inside Lebanon? Mehlis: I don't buy the argument. The assassination was always going to have political repercussions. It was a political crime. We had to accept this, and it came with the territory. For many Lebanese, we did too little; for the United Nations, we did too much. Many at the UN would have preferred a softer approach. I understood this. The UN didn't want another problem. NOW: So, was there interference by the secretary general's office in your work, particularly from then-UN Secretary General Kofi Annan? Mehlis: Annan made it clear to me that he did not want another trouble spot. I respected this, but he also respected my point of view. Traditionally, there is tension between politics and justice, and I accepted that Annan did not want more problems because of the Hariri case. Relations are helped little when a prosecutor [like Brammertz] uses terms such as the "secrecy of the investigation." Yet Annan was always very supportive of my work and well-being. The UN did not interfere in my efforts and had no leverage over me, as I was not after a position in the organization. Even had the UN tried, there were investigators from 17 countries who might have thought differently, making this impossible. NOW: There was the famous case where, in your first report, one could access through the track-changes command the edits in the initial draft of the document. It was clear that you had edited out the names of two very senior members of the Syrian leadership mentioned by a Syrian witness. Was leaving the track changes in intentional, so people could see which officials might have been implicated?
Mehlis: Not at all. When I prepared the original report, it was my impression that it would be confidential; that we would release to the public a version containing fewer details. However, in New York I learned that Annan wanted to make the report public. I intervened to say that, therefore, we needed to remove the names in question, because the persons mentioned were not suspects, but had merely been mentioned by a witness. Only the names of suspects and certain prominent witnesses were in the report. The UN press office made an unfortunate mistake in releasing the document with the track changes. It was definitely not intentional. NOW: Your reports, the fact that you asked the Lebanese authorities to arrest four pro-Syrian Lebanese intelligence chiefs, and your requests to interview Syrian officials and intelligence officers all showed who you suspected of being involved in the crime. What was it like dealing with the Syrians, and how many times did you travel to Syria? Mehlis: My interlocutors always treated me courteously and professionally, even in a friendly way. But they also made it clear to me that there were limits to their cooperation. I twice went to Syria: once for preliminary talks and once to interview witnesses. NOW: Before leaving, you had put in a request to interview Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad as a witness. The Syrians were quite bothered by this. In the end, you never spoke to President Assad. What happened? Mehlis: I left before the process could go through and don't know what later happened. There were reports that Brammertz held a meeting with President Assad, but that is legally quite different than taking down a witness statement. In fact, I took down the statements of many Lebanese politicians, who did not seem especially keen to put their signature on a document having legal repercussions. I also interviewed the Lebanese president, Emile Lahoud, who seemed to have no problem with this. NOW: Two of your key Syrian witnesses did not seem particularly reliable. One told a press conference in Damascus that his testimony was fraudulent; the other, a former intelligence officer, later became a suspect in Hariri's murder, and has made contradictory statements. Mehlis: In such crimes, you cannot be choosy about whom you are dealing with. What do you expect: white angels coming out from the blue? Those two gave us a lot of information, which we could sometimes corroborate with information received elsewhere. In the end, the tribunal will determine their credibility and ask why they agreed to sign their statements. Maybe the witnesses were there to discredit the investigation, but that can help us determine who wants to discredit the investigation. NOW: The four intelligence chiefs you asked the Lebanese authorities to arrest are still in jail. Their lawyers are saying that they are entitled to be set free, pending a trial. What are your thoughts about this? Mehlis: That is one reason why it's important to accelerate the trial process, to protect the rights of the accused. At the same time, we did find sufficient evidence that all four generals were involved in the Hariri case. This was not my assessment alone, but also that of my commission's investigators and the Lebanese judiciary. Recently, I was accused in press reports in Beirut of having interviewed one of the suspects, Jamil al-Sayyed, without his lawyer. That is nonsense. But there has been a lot of media misinformation on my participation in the Hariri case in order to derail the investigation. NOW: Last week there were reports that judges had been appointed to the Hariri tribunal, which will try suspects identified in the ongoing investigation. The tribunal was established last year under Chapter VII of the UN Charter and will be based near The Hague. This suggests that there is progress.
Mehlis: Perhaps, but because I haven't seen a word on new suspects in the past two years, I have my doubts. I think people should not expect a trial within the next two to three years, unless the investigation regains momentum. I fear that the suspects will end up in a judicial no-man's land, with Lebanon claiming they are under the UN's jurisdiction, and the UN saying that they must remain under Lebanese jurisdiction. NOW: You seem to believe that the problem with the Hariri tribunal is not so much the likelihood of a cover up, but that the process will stall. Do you think a cover up, like [with the] Lockerbie bombing, is possible? Mehlis: The Hariri case is an unusual one. Usually in investigations, you start at the bottom and work your way up. In the Hariri case, we started pretty much at the top and worked down. We had an accurate view of how the assassination took place from above, but less clear a view of what happened on the ground. That is why the investigation was supposed to continue [when I left].Therefore I think that it would be very difficult to have a Lockerbie II. NOW: There is palpable international reluctance to carry the Hariri case to its conclusion, and you alluded to this earlier. Few at the UN, for example, are particularly eager to destabilize Syria's regime, assuming its involvement in the Hariri murder is proven. Do you think this might derail the case? Mehlis: You can't prosecute governments and countries; you prosecute individuals. When I headed [the UN investigation], there was a will to get to the bottom of the crime – shown in all the Security Council resolutions on the matter. Why not now? One of the most helpful [member nations] was Russia, which persuaded Syria to comply with the resolutions. Even with states having different interests, common understandings can be reached. NOW: What do you know of Daniel Bellemare, the new commissioner? Mehlis: I have never met him, heard of him or been contacted by him. NOW: What advice would you give to Bellemare? Mehlis: Concentrate on the Hariri case itself; don't try to write a history book. Focus on the whos, hows and whys of the crime. Analysis can never replace solid investigative police work. As my top Swedish investigator once put it, "A case like this cannot be solved through a PowerPoint presentation." NOW: What does the Hariri case mean for the UN? Mehlis: This can either be an example of efficient UN involvement or a one-time experiment. The UN's image is at stake, particularly in Lebanon, where people put high hopes – perhaps too high – in the Hariri investigation.
NOW: It took you nine years to bring convictions for the 1986 bombing of the LaBelle discotheque in Berlin, in which you accused Libyan officials of being behind the attack. What did that experience teach you? Mehlis: That justice prevails, but you have to have patience. I also recall that for years the LaBelle case dragged on with small successes and failures, but it was always kept alive on the prosecution's side by my working to inform the media, and on the victims' side because their families created pressure groups. I feel that in the [Hariri] case, the families of the deceased can certainly play a much more active role. It's important to keep such cases in the public eye. NOW: In conclusion, do you feel the Hariri tribunal will go forward? Mehlis: Someone committed a terrible crime, and someone is responsible. Definitely, no one can abolish this tribunal. I may not be happy about the time frame, but am deeply convinced the case can be solved and will be solved.
