Pearls Black Market is committed to the principles of Fair Trade with producers, from whom we buy the pearls, as well as with our creative artisans of jewelry.
Fair Trade is part of the international strategy of sustainable development ensuring economic and social progress for producers of Tahitian pearls. Workers of Polynesian pearl farms are protected by strict labor laws, unlike many competing products generally imported from Asia often taken from sites ignoring working and environmental conditions.
A trading partnership, based on dialog, transparency and respect, whose objective is to achieve greater equity in world trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions and guaranteeing the rights of marginalized producers and workers in Tahiti.
In addition, production of Polynesian pearls allows native islanders to remain on their islands of origin and find a job and maintain resourceful communities.
Tahitian pearls are a true product of fair trade and sustainable development versus industrial produced fresh water pearls often artificially colored that are confusing the market and fooling the profane customers.

Wal-Mart is changing its plans for the nation's capital. The company says it won't be building stores in Washington, D.C., after the city council passed a law requiring big-box retailers to pay what's known as a living wage.
Patrick Madden of member station WAMU has the story.
PATRICK MADDEN, BYLINE: Before the vote, Wal-Mart issued city lawmakers an ultimatum: kill the living wage bill, or it would pull the plug on three stores it has planned to build in the nation's capital.
The bill requires certain big-box retailers to pay its workers $12.50 an hour, a 50 percent increase above the city's minimum wage. Wal-Mart called the bill discriminatory. It exempts stores with union workers, for example.
But the retailer's threats did little to sway the D.C. Council. It passed the bill 8 to 5. Councilmember and former mayor Marion Barry criticized Wal-Mart's hardball tactics.
MARION BARRY: That's a stick-up, without a gun, and I'm not going to be stuck up.
MADDEN: But councilmember Tommy Wells - who opposed the living wage bill - admitted that while Wal-Mart isn't, in his words, the best citizen...
TOMMY WELLS: I view it as a job-killer. We do need our minimum-wage jobs. We need our low-wage jobs.
MADDEN: Two stores that Wal-Mart says it will not build have been planned for neighborhoods that have struggled for decades to attract development and retail and have much greater unemployment that the rest of the city.
The pressure is now on Mayor Vincent Gray, who could veto the legislation. A similar bill was passed by the Chicago City Council seven years ago. It was vetoed by then-mayor Richard Daley.
Gray says he has serious concerns over the council's action, but has not indicated what he will do.

For other uses, see Liberty City.
The City of Liberty[1], commonly known as Liberty City or simply Liberty and often abbreviated as L.C., is a major city located in the State of Liberty in the 3D Universe that appears as the main setting of Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto Advance, and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, as well as a secondary role in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The city's motto is "The worst place in America", due to the high crime rate in the city.
Grand Theft Auto III marks the second appearance of Liberty City in the series, succeeding the 2D Universe rendition in the original 1997 game and preceding the current HD Universe rendition introduced in Grand Theft Auto IV.
This rendition of Liberty City has three boroughs: Portland, Staunton Island and Shoreside Vale. This is also the only rendition of Liberty City that is not based entirely on the real-life New York City, being a hybrid of midwestern American cities and port areas of Leith, Scotland. Assuming a significantly different design compared to the previous incarnation in the first Grand Theft Auto, the city plays a role in five games in the series.
Liberty City in the 3D Universe is loosely based on a series of East Coast and Midwestern cities, including New York City, Philadelphia, Detroit and Baltimore, Chicago, Pittsburgh, as well as the port area of Leith in Edinburgh, Scotland (where the Rockstar North headquarters is located), but with no overall inspiration from one city in particular. [4] [5] [6] The city area has a population of 4,000,000 people by 2001. According to the official website, Liberty City's sister city is Beirut, an ironic joke from the producers considering Beirut was frequently bombed during the Lebanese Civil War.
Despite the multiple inspirations, Liberty City is treated as being New York City in the 3D Universe.[7]
Main article: Timeline (3D Universe)
The Liberty Tree says in its October 1998 issue that Liberty will celebrate its 200th anniversary:
Liberty City was established in 1798, 22 years after the Declaration of Independence in the United States. According to Chatterbox FM host Lazlow Jones, Liberty City was "a church, a cow pasture and three houses when the telephone was invented" (the first telephone was patented in 1876). Most of the history of the 3D Universe Liberty City does not reflect that of real-life New York City; for example, New York City was founded in 1624, making it 174 years older than the 3D Universe Liberty City, and by 1876 New York was a sprawling metropolis of over one million people that ranked as the largest city in the US and second largest in the world (behind London).
Liberty City is divided into three boroughs, comprising 25 defined districts and neighborhoods, and the outskirts of the city. In Grand Theft Auto III, a small area made exclusively for the introduction cutscene is hidden behind the hills of Shoreside Vale, although the area cannot be reached by normal means. It is popularly known as the "Ghost Town" due to the lack of collision. In Grand Theft Auto III - The Definitive Edition, the area is rendered invisible after the cutscene ends, and the hills are replaced by an unnamed section of Upstate Liberty only meant to be background scenery.
The boroughs of Liberty City are:
Image | Borough Name | Real-world New York counterpart |
Portland | Industrial Area
While it appears to be inspired by industrial class areas from Brooklyn and Queens, as well as areas from Manhattan Island and Long Island, the port areas are confirmed to be inspired by Leith in Edinburgh, Scotland. Although many areas of Portland could have been inspired by any East Coast and Midwestern city areas according to Rockstar's Q&A. | |
Staunton Island | Commercial Area
It appears to be inspired by New York City's Manhattan Island due to its several landmarks, such as Torrington (Financial District, Manhattan), northwestern Bedford Point (Times Square), East Monroe Avenue (500 Fifth Avenue) and the Liberty City Community College (Columbia University). Staunton Island also derives its name from Staten Island. Although many areas of Staunton Island could have been inspired by any East Coast and Midwestern city areas according to Rockstar's Q&A. | |
Shoreside Vale | Residential Area
It appears to be inspired by New Jersey, The Bronx, and upstate areas of New York. Although many areas of Shoreside Vale could have been inspired by any East Coast and Midwestern city areas according to Rockstar's Q&A. |
Other Areas[]
Liberty City is located on the East Coast of the United States in the State of Liberty. It is north of Vice City, far away east of the State of San Andreas, and close to Carcer City, with links to Upstate Liberty through a road tunnel connecting Cedar Grove and Cochrane Dam as seen in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
The city is relatively flat, with major hills only appearing in Portland (Saint Mark's) and Shoreside Vale (Pike Creek and Cedar Grove). In Grand Theft Auto Advance, however, the city is depicted to have no hills, although this is due to the limited resources of the Game Boy Advance. Portland and Staunton Island are completely surrounded by ocean water. In Shoreside Vale a major river flows through the center of the borough down from the Cochrane Dam to Witchita Gardens.
During the setting of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, in 1992 Liberty City was going through a snowy December winter, with snow on streets and structures visible. During the setting of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, in 1998 Liberty City experiences a pleasant autumn with rain and cloudy days. During the setting of Grand Theft Auto III, in 2001 the weather is cool with frequent rain and fog. The thermometer in Bedford Point indicates the city's current temperature, which oddly tells the temperature in Celsius rather than in Fahrenheit. Liberty City is the only city in the 3D Universe where snow has covered the ground.
Differences between GTA III & GTA: Liberty City Stories[]
The Liberty City featured in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories is based on the Grand Theft Auto III version of the city, but it is set three years previous in 1998. The majority of the city remains the same but there are some noticeable differences between this and its 2001 counterpart.
Landmark Differences[]
- The biggest difference is the presence of two ferry terminals in Harwood, Portland and in Rockford, Staunton Island in 1998. By 2001, the terminals were demolished soon after the disbandment of the ferry service, the Staunton terminal is replaced by Phil's Army Surplus while the Portland terminal was demolished for the Portland exit of the Porter Tunnel.
- In 2001, the Porter Tunnel runs under the entire city while in 1998 the tunnel is limited to Shoreside Vale while the Staunton- Shoreside tunnel is still under construction and the digging has not yet begun to reach Portland.
- In 1998, the Callahan Bridge is under construction and is apparently due to be completed in May of that year.
- Fort Staunton differs in the two games. In 1998, it is a vibrant and lavish Italian district, complete with opera house and museum but it was almost completely destroyed by Toni Cipriani under orders from Donald Love. In 2001, it becomes a construction site for the large-scale redevelopment of the area, including the construction of Staunton Plaza.
- The Jefferson Street Credit Union Building is unfinished in 1998, leaving the Bedford Point Tower the tallest building in the city. As of 2001, the building is complete and has become the city's tallest.
- The cemetery is larger in 1998 and located to the right of the Cathedral with a small strip still present. In 2001, the Bedford Point Opera House now sits there and the cemetery is now located only on a small strip of land North of the Cathedral.
- The Rusty Brown's donut shop in 1998 becomes Greasy Joe's cafe in 2001.
- The Turtle Head Fish Factory in Callahan Point is a Leone-controlled drugs factory and was blown up by the Triads in 1998. By 2001, it becomes a fish factory under Triad control and suffers a similar fate carried out by Claude under orders from Toni Cipriani.
- One of the towers and its plaza in Hepburn Heights is under construction in 1998.
- The Dolls House, which Toni destroyed in 1998, is absent in 2001 and is replaced with a similar building positioned slightly further south.
- Toni's Portland safehouse is partially demolished in 2001.
Gang Control differences[]
Due to the city's large Italian-American population, particularly in Portland, the city sees a constantly fluctuating level of mafia activity. In 2001, two mafia families are present, with the Leones being the dominant Mafia family operating in Portland, mainly in Saint Mark's and the Red Light District, and the much smaller Forelli family operating mainly out of their only known front: Marco's Bistro, and an additional hideout in Atlantic Quays. But in 1998, there were three families operating in the city, the Leone, the Forelli and the Sindacco families, and a fourth trying to get in. The Leones are still in control of Saint Mark's but the Sindaccos control the Red Light District and Hepburn Heights in Portland and Newport and Torrington in Staunton while the Forellis control Fort Staunton in Staunton Island and Wichita Gardens in Shoreside Vale. The three families are locked in war with each other, leading to the arrest, trial and release of Salvatore Leone, the deaths of Forelli-controlled Mayor Roger C. Hole and Sindacco Don Paulie Sindacco and the destruction of Fort Staunton.
The weakening of the Mafia led to new gangs coming in for control of territory left behind. The Yardies end up controling Newport, the Colombian Cartel control Fort Staunton while the Yakuza control Torrington, southern Newport and surrounding areas. On Portland, the Triads control Chinatown and the Diablos battle with the Leones for control of Hepburn Heights and the Red Light District. While on Shoreside Vale, the Southside Hoods control former Forelli Wichita Gardens. Other gangs in 1998 include the Avenging Angels and the Liberty City Bikers.
By 2001, the aforementioned gangs still control their aforementioned territories but the Sindaccos have been ran out of the city and the Forellis are now considerably weakened. Furthermore, the Liberty City Bikers have gone extinct following a city-wide motorcycle ban, and the Avenging Angels have similarly disappeared without a trace.
Main article: Mayoralty of Liberty City in 3D Universe
The Mayor of Liberty City in 2001 is Miles O'Donovan, who won an election against Donald Love after the death of the previous mayor, Roger C. Hole, at the hands of Toni Cipriani in 1998.
Roger C. Hole was elected Mayor of Liberty City in 1992 and during this time proved to be corrupt. Hole, who was being controlled by Forelli Crime Family Don Franco Forelli, caused numerous controversies during his term in office. In 1993, three Russian prostitutes and a construction company manager were caught trying to get a government contract from Hole. In 1995, he was photographed with members of the Forelli Crime Family whilst he was accused of securing drugs for city officials in return for sanitation contracts. Hole was also accused of sleeping with two underage girls. Eventually, his connections with the Forelli Crime Family resulted in his own death in 1998. During his term in office, he raised taxation, reduced public expenditure, increased bureaucratic costs and kept Liberty City in the national news.
An election was then triggered, with businessman Donald Love running against former candidate Miles O'Donovan. Love received help from Salvatore Leone and Toni Cipriani, who campaigned for him, stopped the Forelli Crime Family rigging the election and even attempt to rig the election in Donald's favour. However, after links between Love and the Leone Crime Family were discovered, the people voted in favour of O'Donovan.
There is only one known educational building in the city: the Liberty City Community College in the Liberty Campus district of Staunton Island. In the beta version of Grand Theft Auto III, a school could also be seen in the Chinatown district of Portland, although this was later replaced by the Old School Hall.
In Grand Theft Auto Advance, the Liberty Campus college is seen during the mission School's Out when Mike kidnaps Yuka, the niece of Yakuza co-leader Asuka Kasen.
The Liberty City Community College is based at the Liberty Campus district. The college is run by Dean Smegley, with Eric Ershwitz employed at the college as Professor for Contemporary Crime. The college was named the worst in the United States, resulting in Smegley's appointment as Dean and his changing of the colleges program. Smegley, in 2001, announces his plans to abandon the old methods of evaluation and old subjects, planning to replace them with diplomas for new subjects and grading students on how bad they look. The new subjects include: Street cleaning, Processed Agriculture Rotation, Grill Management, Floor cleaning, Restroom Administration, Coatroom Management, Automobile Ignition Circumvention and Pharmaceutical Baking.
Liberty City's media is dominated, in 2001, by the Love Media group run by Donald Love, which also controls numerous other businesses across the city. The company owns "900 radio stations, 300 television stations, 4 networks, 3 satellites, and 10 senators" according to a Love Media advert. Besides owning various media, Love Media probably also has films, including "The Mainframe" which was released in 1998.
In 1998, the city had ten independently owned radio stations. The city also had a publicly funded station, Liberty City Free Radio. By 2001, the airwaves of the city had changed. Love Media purchased Head Radio, Double Clef FM, Flashback 95.6 and Liberty City Free Radio, replacing that station with Chatterbox FM. A number of stations remain outside of Love Media's ownership: Lips 106, Rise FM, MSX FM (replacing MSX 98) and Game Radio (which replaced The Liberty Jam). Three other radio stations also exist in the city in 2001, although Claude cannot listen to them. They are Liberty FM, WLLC 'The Zone' and Liberty Soul FM. Meanwhile, Radio Del Mundo appears to have disappeared from unknown conditions.
The player can listen to the following radio stations:
GTA III (2001) | GTA: Liberty City Stories (1998) |
Print Media[]
The city's newspaper, the Liberty Tree, is in 1998 privately owned but by 2001 comes under the ownership of the Love Media group. The newspaper has been "promoting family values" for over fifty years. Adam Tedman, a report for the paper, reports that the Liberty Tree won the "Most Absorbent Newsprint Award" at the Cleaning and Tidying Association of America annual awards ceremony. In the same article, Tedman also references that Liberty Tree has a rival in the city, although he does not mention the newspaper by name.
Liberty City has two known sports teams: the Liberty City Cocks and the Liberty City Beavers. Both are football (soccer) teams, and play at the Liberty Memorial Coliseum in Aspatria. Fans of the Liberty City Cocks can be seen in the area.
Derrick Thackery mentioned a match between the two on WCTR's The Tight End Zone in 1992. Another match between the two is played in September of 2001, with the Liberty Tree reporting that the Liberty Cocks won 3-0 after a hat-trick (three goals) from Iranian striker Ma'am.
There is a slight oddity with the Liberty City Cocks. They are an American football team in Two-Hand Toss, and the Liberty Memorial Coliseum in Grand Theft Auto III has an American football field with Liberty City Cocks lettering in the end-zones, implying that they are an American football team. Either this is a developer oversight, or the Liberty City Cocks field both a soccer and a football team; this would be somewhat akin to the real-life New York Giants, who shared somewhat of an association with the baseball New York Giants.
Liberty City has many services available 24 hours per day, including restaurants, transportation, gas, firefighting and health care; these services have different levels of interactivity and benefits. Food service can range from restaurants, food distributors (companies) and cafeterias as Punk Noodles, Joe's Pizza (used more in 1998), to Tarbrush Café, Momma's Restaurante, Belly-Up Fish & Seafood Processing Plant, etc. Public transportation comes in the form of taxis, buses and commuter trains (both subway and elevated lines).
Public Transportation[]
The public transportation of Liberty City is widely used by pedestrians in the city. The taxi, which is available for the player to use in taxi side missions, is a common form of transportation for the residents of Liberty City. Liberty City also features a subway system which can provide the player with convenient, reasonably fast transportation between the three boroughs. The Portland El is another carrier, which provides local elevated train service for Portland Island.
Health Care[]
Hospitals provide another important service in Liberty City; they revive the player, for a cash fee, in the event of his death. The hospitals of Liberty City are:
- Sweeney General Hospital: Founded in 1847, Sweeney is the oldest hospital in the city. Sweeney General Hospital serves the borough of Portland.
- Carson General Hospital: Founded in 1973, is the largest hospital in the city. Carson General Hospital serves the borough of Staunton Island.
- Hope Medical College: A hospital located in Shoreside Vale.
Main article: Liberty City Police Department (3D Universe)
The Liberty City Police Department, which was founded in 1869, is another widely used service for all types of problems such as gang fights or theft. The LCPD has problems with bribery and corruption; the dealings of Ray Machowski with the criminal elements of Liberty City, many of which are revealed in his missions for Claude, are a rather typical example of the nature of the LCPD. This is most notable and happens in the 2001-Grand Theft Auto III rendition of Liberty City, since they will not attack street criminals like in earlier and later games, or simply because they weren't programmed to do so, as the FBI, and the Army will also not attack street thugs. They will take down criminals at any force in the 1998-Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories rendition, though, along with the aforementioned in-game agencies.
Main article: Liberty City Fire Department (3D Universe)
The Liberty City Fire Department, founded in 1872, is responsible for extinguishing burning buildings, cars and people throughout the city. The Liberty City Fire Department founded has three stations, one located on each island. Fire trucks can usually be found parked outside each of these stations.
Transportation Infrastructure[]
Primary road infrastructure around the city includes four bridges (only two bridges -- the Callahan Bridge and the Shoreside Lift Bridge -- serve the purpose of connecting the three islands), two expressways, the Porter Tunnel, which runs underneath all three boroughs of the city, another tunnel under construction in Shoreside Vale (which presumably leads upstate). There is also Francis International Airport and public transportation, such as the subway, that can be used by the player and the pedestrians.
Liberty City has four street bridges throughout the city, two large bridges that connects the three islands:
- Callahan Bridge linking Portland and Staunton Island.
- Shoreside Lift Bridge linking Staunton Island and Shoreside Vale.
Callahan Bridge, also known as "West Port Bridge"[8], is a four lane suspension bridge finished sometime after 1998, when construction was almost completed. The bridge links the Chinatown district of Portland to the Newport district of Staunton Island. In 2001 the bridge was partially destroyed when the Colombian Cartel kidnapped the Old Oriental Gentleman, planting a bomb to kill the LCPD officers transporting him, Claude and 8-Ball to Portland.
The Shoreside Lift Bridge is a four lane lift bridge, most likely based off George Washington Bridge connecting Manhattan to the New Jersey. In 1998, Toni Cipriani has to wait for a strike to end before using the bridge, whilst in 2001 Claude is forced to wait until a mechanical problem is fixed.
There are also two smaller but notable bridges: an unnamed bridge in Shoreside Vale connecting Pike Creek and Cedar Grove, and an unnamed little bridge on Staunton Island connecting Fort Staunton with Rockford.
There are three expressways located in Staunton Island. The first expressway is the Aspatria - Bedford Point Expressway, a four-lane highway located in the western part of the island. This is the biggest highway in the city, connecting Aspatria with Bedford Point, passing through Belleville Park and below the Shoreside Lift Bridge.
The second highway, called "Newport/Fort Staunton Expressway", runs along the east coast of Staunton Island through the Newport and Fort Staunton districts.
There is another highway that links the Newport, Fort Staunton and Torrington districts in east Staunton Island, which is the only highway that pedestrians will walk across; this is possibly because this highway is more akin to a traditional street than the other two.
Road Tunnels[]
Porter Tunnel is an underground and underwater road tunnel connecting the city's three boroughs. The tunnel may be based on the Holland Tunnel or the Lincoln Tunnel. The tunnel has four lanes, apart from the exit at Staunton Island, which only has two lanes. The tunnel entry/exit points include Harwood (in Portland), Rockford (in Staunton Island), and Francis International Airport and Wichita Gardens (both in Shoreside Vale). Construction for the tunnel begins in 1998, however, numerous delays see the tunnel finally open in October 2001, with Claude having to wait for the tunnel to be fully constructed.
A second road tunnel is located on Shoreside Vale, with entry points at Cedar Grove and Cochrane Dam, accessible only in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. The tunnel branches into "Upstate", although this is blocked off.
Trains and Subways[]
Portland El[]
Main article: Portland El
The Portland El (electric line) is an elevated train service running on Portland, connecting the Saint Marks, Chinatown and Hepburn Heights districts. The system, introduced in 1930[9], is not connected to the city's subway system. The three stations are Baillie Station (in Saint Marks), Kurowski Station (in Chinatown) and Rothwell Station (in Hepburn Heights).
Main article: Subway in GTA III
The inter-borough subway system is an underground system linking the three boroughs of the city. The subway stations are located at the border of the Red Light District/Chinatown in Portland, at Liberty Campus and Bedford Point in Staunton Island, and Francis International Airport in Shoreside Vale. At some point, Liberty City had another subway system, which was abandoned after the construction of the new subway. Toni Cipriani uses an old subway entrance to destroy Fort Staunton in "Bringing the House Down."
One form of public transport seen on the streets is a taxi. There are two types of taxi seen around Liberty City:
- Taxi: The taxi is a more modern vehicle design than the cabbie, and offers superior acceleration and handling.
- Cabbie: The cabbie is an older counterpart to the taxi; these are slower and heavier due to their older design.
Liberty City's taxi companies are Mean Street Taxis, which is based in Trenton (they also operate in Vice City, as the main rivals of Kaufman Cabs), Borgnine Taxis in Harwood, and formerly, the Sunnyside Taxis in the 1990s[10].
Ferry Service[]
Liberty City´s ferry was the most used interborough transportation service until it was replaced with the more convenient and efficient Callahan Bridge. The ferry connected Portland and Staunton Island, with docks located in Harwood and Rockford. The ferry service was canceled by Miles O'Donovan, despite his promise to maintain the service. In 1998, workers across the city went on strike to protect the ferry service, which only provoked the closure, leaving Portland off the rest of the city. By 2000, the ferry service had been replaced by the Callahan Bridge and Porter Tunnel.
Liberty City's airport, which is called "Francis International Airport", is the only airport in the city, located in Shoreside Vale. This means of transport is the most widely used by travelers going to and from Liberty City since 1953, providing $69 tickets for travel to different places like London, San Andreas, Vice City, Miami, Bogota, Amsterdam, Bangkok, Toronto, Leith and Tokyo.[11] Several airlines like Rockstar, DMAir, McAdam Airways, among others, operate in this airport, providing flights to domestic and international locations.
Main article: Harwood Train Yard
Very little is known about the Liberty City Railroad, but evidence like an old rail yard with some rusty rails located inside it and a tunnel shows that it once existed within the city.
Liberty City has, in 2001, a rampant crime rate and is known as the "worst place in America" because of this. The main problem for the city is the organised crime, and in particular the problem of gangs. The city has also had problems with specific individuals, namely Tommy Vercetti in 1971, Carl Johnson in 1992, Toni Cipriani in 1998, Mike in 2000, and Claude in 2001. The Liberty Tree and radio stations document the criminal acts occurring in the city and the resulting consequences. These include the Liberty City Police Department introducing helicopters, paramedics threatening to go on strike and prosecuting criminals (such as Salvatore Leone between 1998 and 2001).
According to the FBI, residents of Liberty City "were 38% less likely to be a victim of a violent crime than the rest of the nation, unless those crimes included mugging, murder, carjacking or assault". Whilst the Liberty Tree reports that between 2000 and 2001 "part I" offenses (murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, grand theft auto and arson) went up 11%. They also report that "Violent Offenses (Murder, Rape, Robbery, and Aggravated Assault) are up 73% and murder has increased four fifths from last year's 23% of what it had been previously".[12]
Liberty City in GTA Advance[]
Main article: Liberty City (3D Universe)/Liberty City in GTA Advance
The 3D Universe rendition of Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto Advance is not entirely similar to the original version depicted in Grand Theft Auto III. While the map layout remains the same, there are major changes in the world itself. This is likely due to the limitations of the Game Boy Advance, or an oversight by Digital Eclipse. For example:
- Portland is bigger than the original rendition in Grand Theft Auto III.
- The neighborhoods of Wichita Gardens, Portland View, Harwood, Rockford, Torrington and Bedford Point are totally different from the original rendition in Grand Theft Auto III.
- There are height differences. The city is totally flat.
- Most landmarks, skyscrapers and other prominent locations from Grand Theft Auto III are replaced by generic buildings and warehouses.
- The train stations, tracks and tunnels are not present in the game.
Roles in other games[]
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City[]
Liberty City appears twice and is mentioned on a number of occasions during Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, including being the setting for the introduction to the game, where the Forelli Crime Family Don Sonny Forelli, his right-hand man and an unnamed associate are seen in a back-room inside Marco's Bistro discussing the future of a Forelli Crime Family soldato Tommy Vercetti after he gets out of jail. Sonny Forelli appears inside Marco's Bistro again during An Old Friend. The district of Harwood is also referred to during the game, and in particular during the games climax, Keep Your Friends Close..., with Sonny referring to Vercetti as "The Harwood Butcher". There are also several posters in the city that mentions the phrase "take a vacation in Liberty City".
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
Liberty City appears in The Introduction DVD and during the mission Saint Mark's Bistro, as well as being mentioned on a number of occasions during Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The Introduction DVD shows the games protagonist Carl Johnson attempting to steal cars in the Red Light District and later receiving a phone call from his brother Sweet Johnson regarding his mother's death whilst in the city. After arriving back in Los Santos for his mother's funeral, he was asked by Ryder about when he would be returning to Liberty City. Carl Johnson tells Salvatore Leone that he worked for Salvatore's son Joey in Liberty City to gain Salvatore's trust during the mission Freefall. The mission Saint Mark's Bistro involves Carl Johnson returning to Liberty City to perform a hit at Marco's Bistro.
- In real-life, there is a neighborhood in the city of Miami named Liberty City.
- None of the protagonists whose stories are based in Liberty City are able to swim or fly airplanes and helicopters. Claude can 'fly' a Dodo with no wings, but it was never intended to be flown. Toni can fly a helicopter, but only by performing tricks in some missions.
- Motorcycles did not appear in Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto Advance. The in-universe explanation is that Liberty City banned motorbikes between 1999 and 2001 to make room for more cars.[14]
- Liberty City could be randomly mentioned by people. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories if Victor Vance jacks a car, a pedestrian might shout "What is this, Liberty City?" (in mention to all the crime in Liberty) and in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Denise Robinson, one of Carl Johnson's girlfriends may tell Carl to "take her to Liberty City".
- Liberty City appears the most in the 3D Universe. It is also the only 3D Universe location to be featured in all three decades (1980's, 1990's, and 2000's).
- Going by the release date of the games, Liberty City is the first location visited in the 3D Universe. Although chronologically, it is the last 3D Universe location.
- Liberty City's last chronological citation happens in Manhunt 2 via the Liberty City Amateur Dramatic Society.

Leftovers and Food Safety
Often when we cook at home or eat in a restaurant, we have leftovers. To ensure that leftovers are safe to eat, make sure the food is cooked to a safe temperature and refrigerate the leftovers promptly. Not cooking food to a safe temperature and leaving food out at an unsafe temperature are the two main causes of foodborne illness. Safe handling of leftovers is very important to reducing foodborne illness. Follow the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service's recommendations for handling leftovers safely.
- Cook Food Safely at Home
- Keep Food out of the Danger Zone
- Cool Food Rapidly
- Wrap Leftovers Well
- Store Leftovers Safely
- Thaw Frozen Leftovers Safely
- Reheating Leftovers without Thawing
- Reheat Leftovers Safely
- Refreezing Previously Frozen Leftovers
Cook Food Safely at Home
The first step in having safe leftovers is cooking the food safely. Use a food thermometer to make sure that the food is cooked to a safe, minimum internal temperature.
- Red meats: Cook all raw beef, pork, lamb and veal steaks, chops, and roasts to a minimum internal temperature of 145° F as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source. For safety and quality, allow meat to rest for at least three minutes before carving or consuming. For reasons of personal preference, consumers may choose to cook meat to higher temperatures.
- Ground meats: Cook all raw ground beef, pork, lamb, and veal to an internal temperature of 160° F as measured with a food thermometer.
- Poultry: Cook all poultry to an internal temperature of 165° F as measured with a food thermometer.
Keep Food out of the Danger Zone
Bacteria grow rapidly between the temperatures of 40° F and 140° F. After food is safely cooked, hot food must be kept hot at 140° F or warmer to prevent bacterial growth. Within 2 hours of cooking food or after it is removed from an appliance keeping it warm, leftovers must be refrigerated. Throw away all perishable foods that have been left in room temperature for more than 2 hours (1 hour if the temperature is over 90° F, such as at an outdoor picnic during summer).
Cold perishable food, such as chicken salad or a platter of deli meats, should be kept at 40° F or below. When serving food at a buffet, keep food hot in chafing dishes, slow cookers, or warming trays. Keep food cold by nesting dishes in bowls of ice or use small serving trays and replace them often. Discard any cold leftovers that have been left out for more than 2 hours at room temperature (1 hour when the temperature is above 90 °F).
Cool Food Rapidly
To prevent bacterial growth, it's important to cool food rapidly so it reaches as fast as possible the safe refrigerator-storage temperature of 40° F or below. To do this, divide large amounts of food into shallow containers. A big pot of soup, for example, will take a long time to cool, inviting bacteria to multiply and increasing the danger of foodborne illness. Instead, divide the pot of soup into smaller containers so it will cool quickly.
Cut large items of food into smaller portions to cool. For whole roasts or hams, slice or cut them into smaller parts. Cut turkey into smaller pieces and refrigerate. Slice breast meat; legs and wings may be left whole.
Hot food can be placed directly in the refrigerator or be rapidly chilled in an ice or cold water bath before refrigerating.
Top of Page
Wrap Leftovers Well
Cover leftovers, wrap them in airtight packaging, or seal them in storage containers. These practices help keep bacteria out, retain moisture, and prevent leftovers from picking up odors from other food in the refrigerator. Immediately refrigerate or freeze the wrapped leftovers for rapid cooling.
Top of Page
Store Leftovers Safely
Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or frozen for 3 to 4 months. Although safe indefinitely, frozen leftovers can lose moisture and flavor when stored for longer times in the freezer.
Top of Page
Thaw Frozen Leftovers Safely
Safe ways to thaw leftovers include the refrigerator, cold water and the microwave oven. Refrigerator thawing takes the longest but the leftovers stay safe the entire time. After thawing, the food should be used within 3 to 4 days or can be refrozen.
Cold water thawing is faster than refrigerator thawing but requires more attention. The frozen leftovers must be in a leak-proof package or plastic bag. If the bag leaks, water can get into the food and bacteria from the air or surrounding environment could enter it. Foods thawed by the cold water method should be cooked before refreezing.
Microwave thawing is the fastest method. When thawing leftovers in a microwave, continue to heat it until it reaches 165° F as measured with a food thermometer. Foods thawed in the microwave can be refrozen after heating it to this safe temperature.
Top of Page
Reheating Leftovers without Thawing
It is safe to reheat frozen leftovers without thawing, either in a saucepan or microwave (in the case of a soup or stew) or in the oven or microwave (for example, casseroles and combination meals). Reheating will take longer than if the food is thawed first, but it is safe to do when time is short.
Top of Page
Reheat Leftovers Safely
When reheating leftovers, be sure they reach 165° F as measured with a food thermometer. Reheat sauces, soups and gravies by bringing them to a rolling boil. Cover leftovers to reheat. This retains moisture and ensures that food will heat all the way through.
When reheating in the microwave, cover and rotate the food for even heating. Arrange food items evenly in a covered microwave safe glass or ceramic dish, and add some liquid if needed. Be sure the covering is microwave safe, and vent the lid or wrap to let the steam escape. The moist heat that is created will help destroy harmful bacteria and will ensure uniform cooking. Also, because microwaves have cold spots, check the temperature of the food in several places with a food thermometer and allow a resting time before checking the internal temperature of the food with a food thermometer. Cooking continues for a longer time in dense foods such as a whole turkey or beef roast than in less dense foods like breads, small vegetables and fruits.
Top of Page
Refreezing Previously Frozen Leftovers
Sometimes there are leftover "leftovers." It is safe to refreeze any food remaining after reheating previously frozen leftovers to the safe temperature of 165° F as measured with a food thermometer.
If a large container of leftovers was frozen and only a portion of it is needed, it is safe to thaw the leftovers in the refrigerator, remove the needed portion and refreeze the remainder of the thawed leftovers without reheating it.

Free standard shipping on orders over $180
Estimated to be delivered on 12/01/2022 - 15/10/2022.
Insect specimens are wonderful to work with and their beauty can last for many years.
Please note that as this is a natural product, there can be some variation between each specimen, especially in size.
Please read the description below carefully for more information about the specimen being offered.
This specimen will be shipped dried with its wings closed together. Please read our illustrated instructions showing the method we use to hydrate and set our specimens.
Origin: | Philippines |
Sex: | M |
Quality: | A1 |
Size: | 75mm (wingspan) |
If you are not setting the specimen straight away, it can be safely kept in a sealed container away from moisture and insect pests. If you suspect something may be eating it, freeze the specimen for a few days. This will not damage the specimen.
If it is exposed to moisture and develops mould, this can be cleaned up easily with acetone if caught early.
If you have any questions please view our various help pages or contact us. We will be happy to assist.
We source our specimens from a number of insect suppliers in Asia, Africa and South America.
Many specimens are captive bred and others are wild caught. We do not deal in protected species.
Insect breeding / collecting is sustainable and is a good source of income for people who often live in very remote places.
Most species are only available for short periods each year and in limited quantities, and may not be available every year.
Please note that unless the item you receive is not as described in the store, arrives damaged or is lost in the mail, we generally do not accept returns or issue refunds.
If you wish to discuss a return with us, please contact us at email@example.com . This should be arranged within 7 days of receipt of the items. Should we accept the return, we will explain the procedure to you. The item/items need to arrive back to us in the same condition they were shipped and in the same packaging. The refund with then be issued minus the initial shipping costs. You also need to pay the return shipping costs.
Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us immediately if there is a problem, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right. This may mean the reshipping or a refund of an item that arrived damaged or was missing from the order.
Please note that items marked as A- or A2 in the store are damaged to varying degrees, so refunds will generally not be given for these unless that damage is markedly beyond that which would be expected for the quality grading given.
Please also note that no refunds will given for items that arrive with antenna damage due to postal shock.
As insect specimens are a natural product and not manufactured, sizes and colouring can vary slightly from specimen to specimen. Refunds will not be given for such natural variations. If you are ordering from overseas, it is your responsibility to ensure you are able to import items into your country. Insect Designs will not be responsible for any difficulties at the boarder or liable for any fees or duties. We will not issue any refunds for any loss or damage caused by boarder inspections or treatments.
If your order is returned to us by Customs or the postal carrier due to non-delivery, we will issue a refund for the items in the order provided they arrive back in the same condition they were sent. However, the initial postage cost will not be refunded.

If more than 10 business days have passed since we've approved your return, please contact us at email@example.com.
As Insect specimens are natural products, the quality can vary greatly. If specimens are not A1 in the store, they will be marked as A-, A2 or second grade. The guide below explains the gradings used for specimens in our store.
A1: These are perfect specimens (or as perfect as you could expect from wild caught specimens), with exception of leg damage. In the case of beetles, these should be perfect. Male morpho butterflies are normally supplied without abdomens as the oils stain the wings black. They are still considered to be A1.
A-: These specimens have minor damage, such as antenna damage, or minor flight wear such as small scratches, minor sale damage, some minor fraying/chipping around the edges of the wings. In the case of beetles, the damage could be minor leg damage, small stains or scratches.
A2: More significant damage, such as major flight wear, small rips, small pieces missing from the wings, damage to the thorax or abdomen, or staining. In the case of beetles, damage could be missing legs or significant staining/scratches.
Second Grade: These specimens have similar damage to A2 specimens, but to a more significant degree.

A few months ago, one of our favorite restaurants closed. O Chame and their fresh, soulful Japanese food always made our family happy - after decades of belly-warming meals, we were heartbroken to see it go. O Chame's blanched spinach with sesame dressing was a perennial favorite. (I have to say... there's nothing more satisfying than watching kids devour a huge plate of greens, only to ask for more!) I've been working on tweaking the flavors for my own sesame dressing for a while now - I even consulted my friend Doug who did a stint working at O Chame.
For you loyalists out there, this dish will not taste exactly like O Chame's beloved sesame spinach, but the flavors should make you nostalgic, for sure. While sesame dressing is traditionally served with blanched spinach, I really enjoy using heartier kale as my greens here. Give it a try...either way, it's darned tasty.
Do you have a Japanese sesame dressing recipe to share? I'd love to hear about it!
A note on ingredients: I suggest looking for toasted white sesame seeds, Mirin, tamari, and rice wine vinegar at your local Japanese/Asian market.
printable recipe
- 1 1/2 -2 pounds kale, tough ribs removed - spinach is also delicious
- 1/2 cup toasted white sesame seeds (if you can't find toasted seeds, you can buy raw sesame seeds and quickly toast them yourself)
- 3 tablespoons Mirin (sweet sake for cooking)
- 2 tablespoons GF Tamari or soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice wine vinegar
- optional: 2 teaspoons light agave nectar (I find kale likes this extra hit of sweet)
- optional: if you are the type of person who happens to have dashi on hand, add a splash or two to the dressing
Heat a large pot full of water for blanching the greens.
In 2 batches, blanch kale leaves in unsalted water for a 1-2 minutes until greens are tender and vibrant green. The age, size and heartiness of your kale will determine how long you'll need to cook the leaves. After about a minute of cooking, I pull out a leaf to start tasting for doneness. (Keep in mind that spinach should only need 20-30 seconds to blanch.) Use tongs to remove blanched greens from the hot water.
Let your cooked greens cool to room temp in a colander while you blanch another batch. Place the second batch of cooked greens into the colander to cool with the first batch. (If you have a garden, save your blanching water. Let it fully cool, then use that nutrient-rich liquid to water your plants.)
While the greens are cooling, go ahead and make your dressing. Using a mortar and pestle or food processor, blend toasted sesame seeds, Mirin, Tamari, rice vinegar, and agave. It's easier to achieve a creamier consistency using a food processor, but sometimes I prefer the therapeutic labor of a mortar and pestle.
When the kale has cooled to room temp, grab half of the greens and squeeze them between your hands to removed excess liquid. The cooked greens will stick together in a log-shaped clump after being squeezed together in your hands. Take that roll of greens and slice it into 1/2 inch wide strips then transfer chopped leaves to a mixing bowl.
Before dressing your salad, keep in mind that this recipe gives you a VERY generous amount of dressing. You may only need to use as little as half the dressing. (Feel free to save the remaining dressing in a lidded container in the fridge for another batch of greens.) We like a ton of dressing on our kale, so we use it all in one go. Toss greens and dressing with your hands to fully coat the leaves with the toasted sesame goodness.

15. And straightway all the people--the multitude.
when they beheld him, were greatly amazed--were astounded.
and running to him saluted him--The singularly strong expression of
surprise, the sudden arrest of the discussion, and the rush of the
multitude towards Him, can be accounted for by nothing less than
something amazing in His appearance. There can hardly be any doubt that
His countenance still retained traces of His transfiguration-glory.
Ex 34:29, 30).
So BENGEL,
No wonder, if this was the case, that they not only ran to Him, but
saluted Him. Our Lord, however, takes no notice of what had attracted
them, and probably it gradually faded away as He drew near; but
addressing Himself to the scribes, He demands the subject of their
discussion, ready to meet them where they had pressed hard upon His
half-instructed and as yet timid apostles.
The Book of Mark
Mark 1:15 - And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Mark 2:12 - And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
Mark in The New Testament - A Brief Overview
Painting of St. Mark by Titian - 1560
Introduction to The Gospel of Mark
The Word Gospel. The second book of the English Bible that most of us read from is the Gospel of Mark. Mark is the second of the four gospel writings, yet there is only one gospel about Jesus Christ and there are four different writers: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The word "Gospel" means "good news", and the good news is about Jesus Christ dying on the cross and then 3 days later conquering death and rising from the dead, offering salvation to all mankind, this is the Gospel.
Summary of The Book of Mark
Brief Summary. Jesus of Nazareth is the suffering servant who came to die for the sins of all men. He did His work and "immediately" went to the cross, so be encouraged all who are suffering because Christ suffered for you.
Purpose. The Book of Mark is the shortest of the 4 Gospel accounts of the life of Jesus Christ. and he seems to write his account of the Gospel of Christ with a sense of urgency. He mentions the word "immediately" 27 times. In Mark many times Jesus exercises actions rather than words, which would impress his Roman readers who the Book seems to be addressing. He portrays Jesus as a man of power and miracles, who could set aside the laws of nature at will. Yet this powerful Son of God was the suffering servant who would give up His life as a ransom for all mankind (Mark 10:45). The clear purpose of mark was to encourage those suffering persecution that their master suffered first, and He suffered for them.
Audience. Apparently Mark wrote his Gospel account to encourage gentile Christians in Rome who were facing the persecutions of the Emperor Nero. History is clear about the atrocious behavior of the Romans and especially the insanity of Nero. The other evidence that scholars bring up concerning mark's audience as being gentiles is the fact that Mark does not deal with Jewish Laws and he only quotes one prophecy from the Old Testament. There is also careful thought into explaining Jewish customs and idioms. (See Mark 3:7; 5:41; 7:2; 10:46; 14:36; 15:34; 9:43; 14:12; 15:42).
Authorship. The gospel of Mark does not proclaim who the author is within the document, yet the information that we know about Mark can be seen in the writer of this gospel. It is evident that the writer was Jewish, he was a Christian, and he was familiar with every day Jewish life, as well as the Jewish Scriptures. We know from the Scriptures that Mark was Jewish, and he knew the teachings of Jesus very well. He also knew the teachings of the rest of the apostles. It is also important to notice that after Peter was imprisoned he went to the house of Mary, the mother of Mark (Acts 12:12-17). Also Peter mentions in his epistle "my son Mark" (1 Peter 5:13). During Paul's missionary journeys Mark became a companion of Paul and Barnabas, and he left them at Perga in Pamphylia (Acts 13:13), after Paul had rebuked him. Many years later Mark regained the favor of Paul (Col. 4:10; 2 Tim. 4:11). Early Church tradition unanimously ascribes the second gospel to Mark as a companion of Peter and the writer of the second Gospel. One prologue to the Gospels which was written around 160 AD has this statement: "Mark� Was Peter's interpreter, and after Peter's decease wrote down this gospel in the region of Italy." Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria and Tertullian also attest to Mark as the author.
Location. Nothing in the Gospel of Mark indicates where it was written from. Most of the early writers who boast of Mark as the author also name Rome as the place it was written.
Date. Early Christian writers and traditions place the Gospel of Mark sometime close to the end of Peter's life, around 60-65 AD. Most scholars agree that the Gospel of Mark was written before the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, while the Second Temple in Jerusalem was still standing (Mark 13:1-2). Many scholars do not believe in the miracle of predictive prophecy and argue that the Gospel of Mark was written after the fall of Jerusalem, because of the accurate details of the events that Jesus spoke about. Mark's Gospel account seems to have been written as encouragement to the Christians who were facing the persecution of the Emperor Nero which took place in 64 AD.

How Can I Save for My Child's College Education?
Once you've determined how much it could cost to send your children to college, your next prudent step is to develop a systematic investment plan that may help you to accumulate the necessary funds.
What are your funding options? Which would be appropriate for your situation? We've listed several below, along with a brief description of each.
Universal Life Insurance
Universal life insurance policies build cash value through regular premiums and grow at competitive rates, subject to change. These policies carry a death benefit. In addition to providing cash to your heirs in the event of your death, this death benefit gives universal life insurance policies their tax-free status. Money can usually be withdrawn from these contracts through policy loans, often at no interest. Access to cash values through borrowing or partial surrenders can reduce the policy's cash value and death benefit, increase the chance that the policy will lapse, and may result in a tax liability if the policy terminates before the death of the insured. Policy loans or withdrawals will reduce the policy's cash value and death benefit. Additional out-of-pocket payments may be needed if actual dividends or investment returns decrease, if you withdraw policy values, if you take out a loan, or if current charges increase. There may be surrender charges at the time of surrender or withdrawal and are taxable if you withdraw more than your basis in the policy. Any guarantees are contingent on the claims-paying ability and financial strength of the issuing company. The cost and availability of life insurance depend on factors such as age, health, and the type and amount of insurance purchased.
Zero-Coupon Bonds
Zero-coupon bonds represent the ownership of principal payments on U.S. government note or bonds. Unlike traditional bonds, zero-coupon bonds make no periodic interest payments. Instead, they are purchased at a substantial discount and pay face value at maturity. The value of these bonds is subject to market fluctuation. Their prices tend to be more volatile than bonds that pay interest regularly. And even though no income is paid, the inherent interest is still taxable annually as ordinary income.
Mutual Funds
Mutual funds are established by an investment company by pooling the monies of many different investors and then investing that money in a diversified portfolio of securities. These securities are selected to meet the specific goals of the fund. The value of mutual fund shares fluctuates with market conditions so that, when sold, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus. Please consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus, which contains this and other information about the investment company, can be obtained from your financial professional. Be sure to read the prospectus carefully before deciding whether to invest.
529 College Savings Plans
529 college savings plans are state-sponsored plans that offer higher contributions than Coverdell IRAs along with tax-deferred accumulation. Once withdrawals begin, they are tax exempt as long as the funds are used to pay for qualified higher education expenses.
As with other investments, there are generally fees and expenses associated with participation in a 529 college savings plan. In addition, there are no guarantees regarding the performance of the underlying investments in 529 college savings plans. The tax implications of a 529 college savings plan should be discussed with your legal and/or tax professionals because they can vary significantly from state to state. Also note that most states offer their own 529 college savings plans, which may provide advantages and benefits exclusively for their residents and taxpayers. These other state benefits may include financial aid, scholarship funds, and protection from creditors.
Before investing in a 529 college savings plan, please consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully. The official disclosure statements and applicable prospectuses, which contain this and other information about the investment options and underlying investments, can be obtained by contacting your financial professional. You should read this material carefully before investing.

The future doesn't look so bright for China-based Suntech, one of the world's largest makers of solar panels: On Wednesday, it was forced into bankruptcy after missing a $541 million payment to bondholders.
Suntech Power Holdings, based in Wuxi on the outskirts of Shanghai, is largely a victim of its own success, borrowing heavily for expansion in recent years (as did Chinese competitors Trina Solar and Yingli Green Energy). Although worldwide demand for solar panels is high, the ramp-up in production created "enormous oversupply and a ferocious price war," according to a New York Times article in October.
Chinese banks "quietly asked a court on Monday ... to declare the operating subsidiardy, Wuxi Suntech, to be insolvent and begin restructuring it," the NYT says.
(Solyndra, the U.S. solar panel maker that received government loan guarantees and subsequently went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy, has sued Suntech, Trina and Yingli, claiming the Chinese trio of companies conspired to drive it out of business)
From 2009 to 2011, Suntech more than doubled its annual production capacity to 2,400 megawatts, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
It notes that Suntech got its start in 2002 under founder Shi Zhengrong, who was ousted earlier this month as the company sought aid from regional authorities in Wuxi.
Shi "took the company public three years later, becoming the world's first solar billionaire. He obtained credit from the China Development Bank Corp. to wrest control of the industry from German and Japanese competitors," Bloomberg says.
While U.S. and European solar companies have been forced into restructuring, Beijing has continued to support its own solar industries until December, when China's State Council signaled it would stop funding money-losing companies, according to The Wall Street Journal.
