Mallikarjun Kharge Wednesday took charge as the first non-Gandhi president of the Indian National Congress in nearly two and a half decades. Kharge secured the top post defeating party MP Shashi Tharoor by a huge margin at the presidential election held last week.
Addressing party workers as the chief for the first time, Kharge said, "It's an emotional moment for me as the son of a labourer, a common Congress worker, has taken over as chief of the Congress party. I thank you all for this honour."
"I started this journey in 1969 as a block committee chief today you have taken it such heights. It's my privilege and pride to take forward the legacy of Congress, a party which has been guided by the likes of Mahatama Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru," Kharge said.
"As president, it will be my utmost duty to look after our workers. Together, we will build an India that will be enlightened, empowered and equal for every citizen. We will uphold the Constitution of this country, respect everyone's rights and give equal opportunities, defeat those who spread hate, and fight inflation, unemployment and hunger," the party president added.
Speaking about the upcoming elections in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat, Kharge said that people want change in these states. "We will have to show our party's strength in these elections. If we all work hard and with dedication we will achieve success. We are the soldiers of Mahatma Gandhi, we are not scared of anyone. When a Congress worker will get rid of his fear, then even the biggest of kingdoms will be defeated."
He also spoke about the party's Udaipur Declaration, saying that the proposal to give 50 per cent party posts to those below 50 years of age will be implemented.
Congratulating Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi said, "Congress presidency was a huge responsibility. I tried to discharge to my duties with sincerity." She added. "I extend my heartiest congratulations to the newly elected president Mallikarjun Kharge. Change is the rule of the world… Congress had faced a lot of difficulties earlier as well. But I'm sure we will overcome the problems."
Chairman of the Congress Central Election Authority, Madhusudan Mistry, handed over the election certificate to Kharge in the presence of Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi. Rahul is on a three-day break from his Bharat Jodo Yatra from October 24 to 26.
Less than hour after Kharge took charge, all members of the Congress Working Committee and general secretaries and in-charges of the AICC tendered their resignation to the party president.
Ahead of the event, on Wednesday morning, Kharge visited Rajghat in Delhi to pay tribute to Mahatma Gandhi. He also paid a visit to former prime minister Manmohan Singh at his residence.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, who had bowed out of the presidential race, said today marked a "new beginning". "Till the last minute, efforts were made to make Rahul Gandhi the party president as only he can challenge (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi and the government. Today is a new beginning. We congratulate Mallikarjun Kharge ji and will work to strengthen the party," he was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
Kharge's appointment comes with its fair share of challenges. The veteran leader must transform the party to reconnect with the people and start winning elections again. As many as 11 states will go to polls before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and the biggest test before Kharge will be to power the party to victory in at least the major states.

Peter Kropotkin was a Russian naturalist and anarchist born into an aristocratic Russian family in 1842. In this passage from his classic work Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution, Kropotkin argues against a narrow reading of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution promoted by Social Darwinists such as T. H. Huxley and Herbert Spencer. Huxley and Spencer saw the process of evolution as a cutthroat struggle of every individual against all others in which only the strongest survive. They argued that this principle of mutual struggle applies not just to animals and the natural world but also to human societies.
Kropotkin, drawing upon his extensive observations of Siberian ecosystems, argues that while mutual struggle is a factor in evolution, mutual aid is at least as important in nature and is especially important in human evolution. He argues that this mutual aid instinct, and the social institutions that foster and promote mutual aid, are crucial to a well-functioning society and that the growing dominance of state and capitalist institutions in Western European countries promotes a kind of egoistic individualism that threatens these mutual aid institutions and therefore the well-being of society. Kropotkin advocates for a society built around this notion of mutual aid rather than one built around a Hobbesian or Social Darwinist conception of society in which an ever-present threat of the "war of all against all" is present if political institutions were to break down.
[The following reading is from chapters 1, 7, and 8 of Kropotkin's Mutual Aid. The full text can be found online here.]
The conception of struggle for existence as a factor of evolution, introduced into science by Darwin and Wallace, has permitted us to embrace an immensely wide range of phenomena in one single generalization, which soon became the very basis of our philosophical, biological, and sociological speculations. An immense variety of facts:— adaptations of function and structure of organic beings to their surroundings; physiological and anatomical evolution; intellectual progress, and moral development itself, which we formerly used to explain by so many different causes, were embodied by Darwin in one general conception. … [Darwin] foresaw that the term which he was introducing into science would lose its philosophical and its only true meaning if it were to be used in its narrow sense only — that of a struggle between separate individuals for the sheer means of existence. And at the very beginning of his memorable work he insisted upon the term being taken in its "large and metaphorical sense including dependence of one being on another, and including (which is more important) not only the life of the individual, but success in leaving progeny."
While he himself was chiefly using the term in its narrow sense for his own special purpose, he warned his followers against committing the error (which he seems once to have committed himself) of overrating its narrow meaning. In The Descent of Man he gave some powerful pages to illustrate its proper, wide sense. He pointed out how, in numberless animal societies, the struggle between separate individuals for the means of existence disappears, how struggle is replaced by cooperation, and how that substitution results in the development of intellectual and moral faculties which secure to the species the best conditions for survival. He intimated that in such cases the fittest are not the physically strongest, nor the cunningest, but those who learn to combine so as mutually to support each other, strong and weak alike, for the welfare of the community. "Those communities," he wrote, "which included the greatest number of the most sympathetic members would flourish best, and rear the greatest number of offspring" (2nd edit., p. 163). The term, which originated from the narrow Malthusian conception of competition between each and all, thus lost its narrowness in the mind of one who knew Nature.
It happened with Darwin's theory as it always happens with theories having any bearing upon human relations. Instead of widening it according to his own hints, his followers narrowed it still more. … They came to conceive the animal world as a world of perpetual struggle among half-starved individuals, thirsting for one another's blood. They made modern literature resound with the war-cry of woe to the vanquished, as if it were the last word of modern biology. They raised the "pitiless" struggle for personal advantages to the height of a biological principle which man must submit to as well, under the menace of otherwise succumbing in a world based upon mutual extermination.
In how far this view of nature is supported by fact, will be seen from the evidence which will be here submitted to the reader as regards the animal world, and as regards primitive man. But it may be remarked at once that Huxley's [Social Darwinist] view of nature had as little claim to be taken as a scientific deduction as the opposite view of Rousseau, who saw in nature but love, peace, and harmony destroyed by the accession of man. In fact, the first walk in the forest, the first observation upon any animal society, or even the perusal of any serious work dealing with animal life (D'Orbigny's, Audubon's, Le Vaillant's, no matter which), cannot but set the naturalist thinking about the part taken by social life in the life of animals, and prevent him from seeing in Nature nothing but a field of slaughter, just as this would prevent him from seeing in Nature nothing but harmony and peace. Rousseau had committed the error of excluding the beak-and-claw fight from his thoughts; and Huxley committed the opposite error; but neither Rousseau's optimism nor Huxley's pessimism can be accepted as an impartial interpretation of nature.
As soon as we study animals — not in laboratories and museums only, but in the forest and the prairie, in the steppe and the mountains — we at once perceive that though there is an immense amount of warfare and extermination going on amidst various species, and especially amidst various classes of animals, there is, at the same time, as much, or perhaps even more, of mutual support, mutual aid, and mutual defence amidst animals belonging to the same species or, at least, to the same society. Sociability is as much a law of nature as mutual struggle. Of course it would be extremely difficult to estimate, however roughly, the relative numerical importance of both these series of facts. But if we resort to an indirect test, and ask Nature: "Who are the fittest: those who are continually at war with each other, or those who support one another?" we at once see that those animals which acquire habits of mutual aid are undoubtedly the fittest. They have more chances to survive, and they attain, in their respective classes, the highest development of intelligence and bodily organization. If the numberless facts which can be brought forward to support this view are taken into account, we may safely say that mutual aid is as much a law of animal life as mutual struggle, but that, as a factor of evolution, it most probably has a far greater importance, inasmuch as it favours the development of such habits and characters as insure the maintenance and further development of the species, together with the greatest amount of welfare and enjoyment of life for the individual, with the least waste of energy.
[Chapters 1 through 6 of Mutual Aid outline various forms of mutual aid in nature, as well as among "savages", "barbarians", and in medieval cities.]
The mutual-aid tendency in man has so remote an origin, and is so deeply interwoven with all the past evolution of the human race, that it has been maintained by mankind up to the present time, notwithstanding all vicissitudes of history. It was chiefly evolved during periods of peace and prosperity; but when even the greatest calamities befell men — when whole countries were laid waste by wars, and whole populations were decimated by misery, or groaned under the yoke of tyranny — the same tendency continued to live in the villages and among the poorer classes in the towns; it still kept them together, and in the long run it reacted even upon those ruling, fighting, and devastating minorities which dismissed it as sentimental nonsense. And whenever mankind had to work out a new social organization, adapted to a new phasis of development, its constructive genius always drew the elements and the inspiration for the new departure from that same ever-living tendency. New economical and social institutions, in so far as they were a creation of the masses, new ethical systems, and new religions, all have originated from the same source, and the ethical progress of our race, viewed in its broad lines, appears as a gradual extension of the mutual-aid principles from the tribe to always larger and larger agglomerations, so as to finally embrace one day the whole of mankind, without respect to its divers creeds, languages, and races.
For … three centuries, the [European] States, both on the Continent and in these islands, systematically weeded out all institutions in which the mutual-aid tendency had formerly found its expression. The village communities were bereft of their folkmotes, their courts and independent administration; their lands were confiscated. The guilds were spoliated of their possessions and liberties, and placed under the control, the fancy, and the bribery of the State's official. The cities were divested of their sovereignty, and the very springs of their inner life — the folkmote, the elected justices and administration, the sovereign parish and the sovereign guild — were annihilated; the State's functionary took possession of every link of what formerly was an organic whole. Under that fatal policy and the wars it engendered, whole regions, once populous and wealthy, were laid bare; rich cities became insignificant boroughs; the very roads which connected them with other cities became impracticable. Industry, art, and knowledge fell into decay. Political education, science, and law were rendered subservient to the idea of State centralization. It was taught in the Universities and from the pulpit that the institutions in which men formerly used to embody their needs of mutual support could not be tolerated in a properly organized State; that the State alone could represent the bonds of union between its subjects; that federalism and "particularism" were the enemies of progress, and the State was the only proper initiator of further development. By the end of the last century the kings on the Continent, the Parliament in these isles, and the revolutionary Convention in France, although they were at war with each other, agreed in asserting that no separate unions between citizens must exist within the State; that hard labour and death were the only suitable punishments to workers who dared to enter into "coalitions." "No state within the State!" The State alone, and the State's Church, must take care of matters of general interest, while the subjects must represent loose aggregations of individuals, connected by no particular bonds, bound to appeal to the Government each time that they feel a common need. Up to the middle of this century this was the theory and practice in Europe. Even commercial and industrial societies were looked at with suspicion. As to the workers, their unions were treated as unlawful almost within our own lifetime in this country and within the last twenty years on the Continent. The whole system of our State education was such that up to the present time, even in this country, a notable portion of society would treat as a revolutionary measure the concession of such rights as every one, freeman or serf, exercised five hundred years ago in the village folkmote, the guild, the parish, and the city.
The absorption of all social functions by the State necessarily favoured the development of an unbridled, narrow-minded individualism. In proportion as the obligations towards the State grew in numbers the citizens were evidently relieved from their obligations towards each other. In the guild — and in medieval times every man belonged to some guild or fraternity two "brothers" were bound to watch in turns a brother who had fallen ill; it would be sufficient now to give one's neighbour the address of the next paupers' hospital. In barbarian society, to assist at a fight between two men, arisen from a quarrel, and not to prevent it from taking a fatal issue, meant to be oneself treated as a murderer; but under the theory of the all-protecting State the bystander need not intrude: it is the policeman's business to interfere, or not. And while in a savage land, among the Hottentots, it would be scandalous to eat without having loudly called out thrice whether there is not somebody wanting to share the food, all that a respectable citizen has to do now is to pay the poor tax and to let the starving starve. The result is, that the theory which maintains that men can, and must, seek their own happiness in a disregard of other people's wants is now triumphant all round in law, in science, in religion. It is the religion of the day, and to doubt of its efficacy is to be a dangerous Utopian. Science loudly proclaims that the struggle of each against all is the leading principle of nature, and of human societies as well. To that struggle Biology ascribes the progressive evolution of the animal world. History takes the same line of argument; and political economists, in their naive ignorance, trace all progress of modern industry and machinery to the "wonderful" effects of the same principle. The very religion of the pulpit is a religion of individualism, slightly mitigated by more or less charitable relations to one's neighbours, chiefly on Sundays. "Practical" men and theorists, men of science and religious preachers, lawyers and politicians, all agree upon one thing — that individualism may be more or less softened in its harshest effects by charity, but that it is the only secure basis for the maintenance of society and its ulterior progress.
It seems, therefore, hopeless to look for mutual-aid institutions and practices in modern society. What could remain of them? And yet, as soon as we try to ascertain how the millions of human beings live, and begin to study their everyday relations, we are struck with the immense part which the mutual-aid and mutual-support principles play even now-a-days in human life. Although the destruction of mutual-aid institutions has been going on in practice and theory, for full three or four hundred years, hundreds of millions of men continue to live under such institutions; they piously maintain them and endeavour to reconstitute them where they have ceased to exist. In our mutual relations every one of us has his moments of revolt against the fashionable individualistic creed of the day, and actions in which men are guided by their mutual aid inclinations constitute so great a part of our daily intercourse that if a stop to such actions could be put all further ethical progress would be stopped at once. Human society itself could not be maintained for even so much as the lifetime of one single generation. These facts, mostly neglected by sociologists and yet of the first importance for the life and further elevation of mankind, we are now going to analyze, beginning with the standing institutions of mutual support, and passing next to those acts of mutual aid which have their origin in personal or social sympathies.
[Kropotkin goes on to list a wide array of contemporary mutual aid institutions from various countries.]
For every one who has any idea of the life of the labouring classes it is evident that without mutual aid being practised among them on a large scale they never could pull through all their difficulties. It is only by chance that a worker's family can live its lifetime without having to face such circumstances as the crisis described by the ribbon weaver, Joseph Gutteridge, in his autobiography. And if all do not go to the ground in such cases, they owe it to mutual help. In Gutteridge's case it was an old nurse, miserably poor herself, who turned up at the moment when the family was slipping towards a final catastrophe, and brought in some bread, coal, and bedding, which she had obtained on credit. In other cases, it will be some one else, or the neighbours will take steps to save the family. But without some aid from other poor, how many more would be brought every year to irreparable ruin!
In short, neither the crushing powers of the centralized State nor the teachings of mutual hatred and pitiless struggle which came, adorned with the attributes of science, from obliging philosophers and sociologists, could weed out the feeling of human solidarity, deeply lodged in men's understanding and heart, because it has been nurtured by all our preceding evolution. What was the outcome of evolution since its earliest stages cannot be overpowered by one of the aspects of that same evolution. And the need of mutual aid and support which had lately taken refuge in the narrow circle of the family, or the slum neighbours, in the village, or the secret union of workers, re-asserts itself again, even in our modern society, and claims its rights to be, as it always has been, the chief leader towards further progress. Such are the conclusions which we are necessarily brought to when we carefully ponder over each of the groups of facts briefly enumerated in the last two chapters.

Hello everyone! This week I will be talking about one of my favorite printmaking small business. I follow them on Instagram and they call themselves "Little Friends of Printmaking" which is an adorable title. They specialize in screen printing and illustrations and they upload videos of how they make there prints which is educational and fun! Located in California, artists JW and Melissa Buchanan both work daily to up keep with demand and are still currently accepting commissions. From posters to T-shirts they have a diverse portfolio of printmaking.
One of their pieces I especially like is this fun anatomy guy. I like all things spooky and since October is just around the corner I found it appropriate to talk about him. Screen printing will use multiple different colors of ink stacked on top of each other to create and unique and interesting images. The paper is mounted under the screen, and the screen has opening is certain places to focus the ink. The ink is then swiped around the screen and the excess is swiped off. The screen is lifted reveling the images on the paper below. Repeating the process and changing the screens with create a pleasant piece of art.
Personally I have not had the pleasure to screen print but I have done linocuts and wood cuts and I love the art of printmaking as a whole. I'm excited to updated y'all on new printmakers you haven't heard or seen before for this fall semester! Until next time.

Try to contain your shock, but yet another storm on the way.
A low pressure system will work its way through California tomorrow, bringing us scattered rain and snow Wednesday with snow showers staying into early Thursday.
Rain will start up in the valley early in the day Wednesday, with scattered showers lingering into the evening.
Rain totals looks to be about a quarter of an inch near Bakersfield, with some lesser totals to the south, and some higher totals to the north and in the foothills.
That will add on to what is already the third rainiest December on record for Bakersfield!
We're tracking snow in the mountains too, and that snow forecast looks a little tricky, especially at pass level.
I think areas above 5,000 feet will see mostly our even all snow, and therefore some higher snow totals.
At pass level a wintry mix is possible, with snow levels fluctuating between 3,500 and 4,500 feet Wednesday into Thursday.
I think the lowest snow levels will be along the Grapevine early Wednesday, where an inch or two of snow will be possible in time for the morning commute.
As we get into the afternoon I expect rain to mix in with that snow, limiting our potential for heavy snow at pass level.
I expect a trace to 2 inches of snow for Tehachapi, and am leaning toward the trace with a good amount of rain mixing in.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for our mountain communities though, as any accumulating snow at pass level can significantly slow travel.
As always, check the weather and road conditions before you head through the passes!

National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE), on Monday, called on the Federal Ministry of Aviation to wade into the plan by foreign airlines to 2,000 workers over inability to transfer their earnings to respective bases due to Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) policy.
In a letter addressed to the Minister of State, Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika and made available to newsmen, Acting General Secretary of NUATE, Olayinka Abioye said that information has filtered into the aviation industry of massive reduction in the numbers of its employees to the tune of about 2,000 workers.
He stressed that the plan poses a great threat to the sector's development, adding that the Federal Government should wade in.
"The reason being adduced for this danger is that their earnings in the past year is under lock with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), as they are unable to transfer these earnings to their respective home countries to meet operational costs in accordance with international rules"
"Following concerns raised recently by leaders of these workers and other stakeholders and in appreciation of the good intent of the government's fiscal policy, we humbly make this clarion call for your intervention to grant foreign airlines concession to repatriate their proceeds to their home countries" he said.
Abioye pointed out that should the foreign airlines go ahead with the sacking of the workers in the aviation industry, it would not be in the interest of the aviation sector and Nigeria as a whole.
"We hasten to place in the front burner an emerging threat confronting over 2,000 private sector aviation workers in Nigeria which requires your intervention to forestall imminent loss of jobs of these numbers of workers", Abioye added.

A man injured when police mistakenly rammed his vehicle during the manhunt for cop killer Christopher Dorner was offered less to settle his lawsuit than the $250,000 Torrance city officials plan to pay a law firm to defend the city, a source said.
Attorney Robert Sheahen, part of the legal team representing Redondo Beach surfer David Perdue, called the amount of the proposed contract "disgraceful."
Perdue, a married 38-year-old United Airlines baggage handler with two young sons, hasn't worked since the incident and has brain and spinal injuries, Sheahen said.
Noting his client also dragged from his truck by police and pushed face down on the road, Sheahen said, "He hasn't been able to sleep in (five) months, he's in physical pain and diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder from the incident.
"They haven't given him a dime," he added. "Now they're doing everything they can to cheat this family out of money they deserve. It's unconscionable. The taxpayers should rise up against it. This $250,000 payment is an outrage and an insult to every decent person in Torrance."
The City Council is expected to approve the fee agreement at its Tuesday meeting, a routine approval municipal officials typically give with little public comment.
City Attorney John Fellows declined to comment on how much Perdue was offered at a mediation session, but did not deny the $250,000 figure provided by a source close to the negotiations who wanted to remain anonymous.
Both sides signed a confidentiality agreement, a move intended to limit the amount of information released publicly.
No other mediation sessions are scheduled.
"We would be happy to participate again," Fellows said. "A lot depends on the nature of the plaintiff's demands."
The city is hiring outside counsel because officials believe it needs additional staffing to handle the case.
Attorney Mildred K. O'Linn with the Los Angeles office of Manning & Kass, Ellrod, Ramirez, Trester LLP will represent the city.
A former campus police officer at Kent State University, she is the second vice president of the local chapter of the California Association of Police Training Officers and a "recognized expert in the use of force," according to her biography on the firm's website.
O'Linn is currently representing the city in another federal civil rights case involving Jeremiah Banks, a convicted felon shot 10 times by Torrance police during two traffic stops in June 2011. He is suing the city in federal court for assault, battery and civil rights violations.
Police were attempting to pull over Banks' gray Ford sport utility vehicle with no license plate because it matched the description of one being driven by a man who robbed a passerby in Torrance at gunpoint 20 minutes earlier.
The City Council last December allocated $250,000 initially to defend that case, too, which is scheduled to go to trial in November.
Perdue is demanding about $4 million in damages.
That's about how much Los Angeles paid a pair of newspaper carriers whose vehicle was pumped with as many as 100 bullets while police guarded the Flagler Street home of a police official whom Dorner had threatened to kill.
The hail of gunfire left a 71-year-old woman injured, while bullets narrowly missed her daughter.
Perdue wasn't hit by gunfire, but sustained his injuries when police rammed his vehicle, Sheahen said.
The District Attorney's Office is conducting an ongoing criminal investigation into the conduct of the two officers involved in the incident. The officers, whom the city has declined to identify, remain on active duty, Sheahen said.
Fellows declined to say how much the city is willing to pay Perdue given the "confused situation" that existed during the manhunt.
"Everybody is sympathetic, I'm sure, with what happened to Mr. Perdue, including us," he said. "We weren't lying in wait for him.
"We'd be happy to resolve it," he added. "We're just not going to pay an extortionate demand."
Still, Los Angeles quickly settled its case stemming from the manhunt, minimizing the public relations fallout. That's not Torrance's style, as Mayor Frank Scotto told the Daily Breeze in a June 2012 story about the city spending $460,000 in taxpayer money to defend another ongoing lawsuit involving a cop allegedly Tasered by his boss during a routine briefing.
"The city of Torrance is not going to hand out taxpayer dollars unless we believe we've done something wrong," Scotto said. "Some people may argue it may be cheaper to pay someone off than go to battle, but that sends a very bad sign. We would rather go to battle and lose than give money away."
But Sheahen said Torrance hasn't even paid for Perdue's truck that police seized after the incident, let alone his medical care.
O'Linn said the city offered to do so immediately after the shooting. Sheahen countered the city wanted Perdue to also sign a release form saying he was of sound mind and body, which he said is clearly not the case given his injuries.
"The city was not asking him to give up any legal rights to sue them, they were trying to make it right that day," O'Linn said.
Still, Sheahen contends the $250,000 legal contract is just another example of the insensitive way Torrance officials have handled it so far.
For instance, Torrance responded to the initial lawsuit by saying that Perdue was responsible for his injuries in part because of his "own negligent or deliberate actions."
Sheahen noted his client had simply followed police instructions during the incident, but that still didn't prevent officers from ramming his vehicle and shooting at him.
Fellows maintained the denials merely amounted to the city covering its legal bases in its response.
But he conceded an "error' occurred when O'Linn used the legal boilerplate "plaintiff and/or decedent" in her legal brief to describe Perdue.
"Despite Torrance's best efforts, David is not dead yet," Sheahen said.

2018 Spring Statement – what to expect
Chancellor Philip Hammond will deliver his first Spring Statement today at 12.30pm. We will be keeping you up to date on the latest forecasts.
The Chancellor will respond to the latest economic and public finance forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), and announce some areas for consultation on the longer-term tax challenges.
Business groups, including the Trades Union Congress (TUC), have called on the Chancellor to take necessary action to help to boost UK growth, raise wages and invest in public services. TUC General Secretary, Frances O'Grady, said: 'The government is paying too little attention to major problems in the economy.
'The Chancellor should not wait until the Autumn Budget to act. We need urgent action to strengthen the economy and get wages rising.'
Meanwhile, the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has urged Mr Hammond to reinforce his commitment to give business rates refunds to those firms adversely affected by the so-called staircase tax, and retain his promise to abolish Class 2 national insurance contributions (NICs).

Late last year Carlyle Group co-founder David Rubenstein reportedly posed a simple question to an audience of private equity professionals: what other industry charges the same fees for funds of different strength and quality?
His question underscored the growing tension felt by GPs and LPs over fund terms and conditions in recent years. As the world crawled out of economic malaise and back into investment mode LPs made clear they would no longer accept uniform charges across funds of varying performance.
There is a risk a GP will be more concerned about their ability to raise a next fund instead of maximising returns for their current investors
Bernd Kreuter
New Jersey's pension system is one of many prominent LPs to exemplify investors' stronger negotiating position. The $71 billion pension earlier this year won fee cuts and expense reductions from a number of its alternative investment managers, which will save at least $40 million over the next five years. Likewise, the California Public Employees' Retirement System, a pacesetter for institutional investors, recently won fee concessions from CIM Group and Apollo Management which together will save the pension $175 million in costs over a similar time period.
The crux of the issue is that a misalignment of interests can occur between managers and investors when a substantial portion of a fund's income is derived from management fees, says Bernd Kreuter, head of alternatives at Feri Institutional Advisors. The concern is an annual fee charge independent of investment performance can significantly outweigh the rewards offered by carried interest payments which are determined by the GPs ability to produce capital gains and thus maximise portfolio returns. "There is a risk a GP will be more concerned about their ability to raise a next fund instead of maximising returns for their current investors," explains Kreuter in an interview.
In research exclusive to sister site PE Manager, private equity scholar Oliver Gottschalg alongside Kreuter discovered management fees do in fact account for a significant portion of GPs total compensation. On average, GPs pocket more than three times as much in management fees than from carried interest, according to the research. The findings are likely to further fuel the industry's debate over the traditional "2 and 20" rule providing managers 2 percent in management fees and 20 percent in carry.
The research examined a universe of 240 private equity funds raised between 1995 and 2004. Using Preqin data, each funds cash flows were monitored until late last year. A traditional fee structure was assumed to derive the figures while a 2004 cut-off vintage was selected to provide GPs several years to begin divestments.
The study showed 8.4 percent of an average fund's committed capital went to management fees, while 2.5 percent was ultimately paid out as carried interest. Sample funds with less than $250 million in committed capital and funds between $600 million to $1.5 billion in capital showed carried interest accounting for a slightly larger percentage of total compensation.
The findings come at a time when LPs have become particularly sensitive to management fees as a result of GPs recent lack of activity, says Gottschalg, a professor at the HEC School of Management in Paris. Many firms' investment and realisation totals have dropped due to unstable market conditions, putting a wet blanket on the returns hoped for during the industry's golden years.
In response investors are ramping up their due diligence process of fund managers. "More LPs are asking for a firm's budget or projection of future operational expenses," says Bela Schwartz, chief financial officer of The Riverside Company. The conversation typically includes a break-down of fees per employee or transaction, he adds. "Not to compare us with other firms but to verify our staff levels and deal flow justify our agreed management fees."
Meet me in the middle
On the other hand, one question LPs need to ask is: "How much compensation should the owners of a private equity firm make per year to run a business in the financial services industry?" says Schwartz.
Private equity firms of all sizes face immense pressure to recruit and retain junior talent at a time when carried interest prospects are a fraction of better years, sources say. Careers in investment banking or analytical roles demand similar talent but can promise greater compensation in the short-term through bonuses and other incentive arrangements.
LPs need to ask how much compensation should the owners of a private equity firm make per year to run a business in the financial services industry
Bela Schwartz
Moreover, both small and large firms in interviews with PEM make the case management fees are not generally exorbitant. They stress a number of firms deviate from the standard 2 percent market rate and fees typically step down at the conclusion of a fund's investment period.
Mid-market houses in particular are taking fees out of much smaller funds, stress market sources. And in many cases the management fee is not enough to support the larger deal teams employed by small or mid-market firms, says Dante Leone, a private equity lawyer at Capolino-Perlingieri & Leone.
Larger private equity firms justify fee expenses by pointing to their global operations and need to recruit top-tier talent. The ability to source deals across the world requires an office presence in different geographies which in turn requires back-office support and competent managers with experience in the region. Brand name firms have also made the case their exceptional performance justifies a premium to standard market-rate fees.
The Institutional Limited Partners Association (ILPA), an industry group for private equity investors, argues "management fees should be based on reasonable operating expenses and reasonable salaries, as excessive fees create misalignment of interest".
In response sources say the debate isn't around management fees per se, but around a fund's overall terms and conditions. While some GPs with a lacklustre track record or firms raising multibillion mega-funds are comfortable negotiating lower fees, the majority of funds primarily make concessions on things like deal fees or how carry is paid, says Nigel Hatfield a partner in Clifford Chance's private funds group. "Many managers are simply unable to afford operating under lower management fees. Instead they entice investors by providing 100 percent of transaction (deal) fees to the benefit of the fund or perhaps move towards a waterfall carried interest model".
Consequently limited partners have won the most concessions from fund managers on transaction and monitoring fees, according to recent research from SJ Berwin's in-house database of funds seen by PEM.
The percentage of GPs providing 100 percent of deal fees to the benefit of the fund – in accordance with guidelines published by ILPA– has risen for the fourth consecutive year to 58 percent. This compares with 45 percent of funds in 2009, 38 percent of funds in 2008 and 30 percent of funds in 2007.
The SJ Berwin data also shows some movement towards a European-style waterfall distribution model of returning all capital and a preferred return before distributing any carry. This is in contrast to a US-style of distribution where carry is calculated on a deal-by-deal basis.
Investors' next important battleground is becoming termination rights
Dermot Crean, a managing partner with placement agent Acanthus Advisers supports the notion LPs are choosing their battles around periphery conditions. Investors' next important battleground is becoming termination rights, says Crean. "LPs want new protections after experiencing everything going wrong during the downturn."
Whether terms and conditions will be renegotiated once the market cycle circles back in favour of GPs remains to be seen. In any case PE Manager will be sure to keep you posted.

By Art Editor Sion Khan
Whenever I go to Insa-dong art district in Seoul, I stop by several galleries. Among them, when Multi-artist Han Su-il exhibited at Gallery Reuben, I visited the gallery as there were a number of works that attracted the attention of many people.
Although they were 'flat-painting' works, they drew my attention because they were made with materials different from those used in ordinary art works.
I do not overlook unique works because I believe that the life of art should be original and moving.
In this sense, the works of Artist Han Su-il made on various themes and unique materials such as the Light series, Tears series, Landscape series, and Jesus image series were sufficient to attract my attention.
These were works that borrowed and applied the stained-glass technique to glass, and they were realized with unique materials rather than ordinary oil paintings or acrylics.
Artist Han Su-il, who held his fifth solo exhibition at Gallery Leuven from April 27 to May 3, 2022, uses resins and unique paints colored on glass or transparent acrylic plates to create and shed material through the techniques of drawing and flowing shapes. The works created by fully utilizing their characteristics were mysterious and interesting.
In this fifth solo exhibition, there are many works that explored the changes and recombination of space and color in painting.
The fine harmony of colors and forms that are detected in the changes of light expressed by combining colors of paints in painting, reflected forms, and the power by light reflected through the light are expressed in a multi-layered manner, which is filled with stained glass image techniques and projection mechanisms.
This is the pictorial element that is unique to stained glass, in which the glorious light of heaven gently flows through the walls and glass.
His fifth works, which started with experiences and discoveries in these stained glass works, do not use the minimal image of the luminous body of light like James Turrell, but rather the image of light colored with resin or mixed media. The transparent acrylic engraved with images moves between the transparent bodies of the double or triple overlapping films to reproduce another image.
The focus was on the transformation of pictorial images that overlap and change in the space where the shape and color of such images reproduce.
There is no artificial light emitting body and only the function of light penetrating the layered transparent body.
In order to maximize the penetration of the light, a white light panel was arranged to maximize the reflection.
Since it is the essence of stained-glass art that maximizes the pictorial image by light, it is the essence of artist Han Su-il's original world while maintaining it.
A series of works are made by mixing a synthetic resin called resin and pigment on a glass or transparent acrylic plate to naturally flow, or by using a special resin that allows permanent coloration on a glass or acrylic plate to be applied directly to a transparent plate like the technique of stained glass. They are works that are expressed in a way.
Traditional stained glass is a window glass made by welding with a ribbon of lead after cutting it into a decorative form or material or a pictorial design. Various metal compounds such as copper, iron, and manganese are used to color the glass, and the detailed design is expressed using brown enamel glaze.
After this production technology was created, only the details were modified and developed, but there was little change in principle.
The use of colored glass in windows and ceilings originated in the Islamic region around the 7th century. In Islamic architecture, a lot of glass sculptures were inserted into marble plates to combine mining and decoration.
This traditional method is cumbersome, but it has the disadvantage of being expensive in terms of cost.
So, Han Su-il has devised a way to draw a picture like a painting directly on the surface of glass, and researched and developed materials that are settled without permanently falling off the smooth surface of glass.
This work as a writer is based on the experience he gets from his life journey and comes from the spirit of exploring with passion.
Han Su-il is a unique history owner who steadily burns his passion for learning, such as graduating from Masan Education University and graduating from the Department of Architecture at Kookmin University.
In the meantime, preparing a graduate thesis on church and cathedral design, it became an opportunity to improve the method of making stained glass essential for cathedral architecture and to develop an innovative method of forming stained glass patterns, and it became a commercialization and it became an opportunity for him to realize the aesthetics of light in painting works.
Through 10 years of research and experience, he has developed stained glass that colored glass directly by operating a company that installs religious painting in domestic religious facilities called Yeonggwang Stained Glass.
In addition, it was possible to study materials that did not deviate from the glass surface without fading, and to form a company recognized by the industry by receiving patents.
He invented the pattern-forming method of stained glass and patented it by the Korean Intellectual Property Office in April 1999.
A method for manufacturing a translucent glass tile having a thermoplastic resin coloring coating surface and a glass tile were patented by the Korean Intellectual Property Office in January 2007.
In addition, a method of manufacturing fair glass with various colors and pattern coloring coating layers was invented and a patent was registered from the Korean Intellectual Property Office in September 2007.
He could have continued his work by following or adhering to the traditional method of stained glass, but based on it, he devised and created a new developmental style to embody his own original world in the realm of painting. In this respect, we can see the artist's potential of Han Su-il.
Stained glass has developed mainly in the Middle East and Europe, and it is difficult and expensive to construct in Korea in the early days of the technology.
So, it was patent development that he studied to make construction more easily.
So, he established and operated two stained glass workshops in Yeonggwang and St. John's, and began to work nationwide, and he built about 400 places in churches and cathedrals across the country, and also installed them in several places in general corporations and cafes.
In addition, works containing messages for peace were constructed at the Peace Hall in Japan, and exported with favorable responses from overseas.
Han Su-il is not an artist majoring in art, but graduated from the Department of Architecture and prepared a graduate thesis. He became acquainted with stainless glass and became a successful artist and succeeded in his business. He is a very unusual artist who built his own unique artistic area based on his experience.
So, his work seems to have the age and philosophy of life.
It is like a gift of God, as if it were a Catholic monk who regarded labor as a sacred value, and gave it the value of labor to build stained glass hard.
So as an artist, he gives a great impression with the message that he throws to the public in his work.
There are stars called the Earth in the dark space, and there are countless people living in it.
Currently, about 7.5 billion people live on Earth, and the religious god will want all mankind to return to God after successfully completing the semester at the school called Earth.
But this world is full of good and evil and many relative situations.
So, humans can choose between good and evil.
You can also enjoy joy in the realm of light, or choose pleasure in the realm of darkness.
But all creatures and human beings on earth are all living if they pursue so-called physical light.
Because they can't maintain life without this physical light.
Likewise, we are the ones who live in pursuit of the good and hopeful life symbolized by light.
In the dark, light is life and hope. Darkness, which is distinguished from light, is death and symbolizes despair.
All humans live in pursuit of light and pursue life and hope symbolized by light.
This beautiful world can be coexisted with all living things and all mankind permanently by choosing hope rather than despair, choosing good rather than evil, and choosing peace rather than fighting.
Christian way of life is also the ultimate light and hope to talk about human salvation.
It is a heaven that we speak of, and heaven means a brightly shining world.
If heaven is real, it will look like a starlight when we look at it from the streets of billions of light years.
The stories and messages transmitted through stained glass show the world of salvation in which humans ultimately go out of the dark and go to the world of light.
Artist Han Su-il is now in a position to meet the age of mature fruit in life.
It may be that the message he wants to convey to the public is 'Toward the Light,' which may be the position of having to fulfill the same mission as the great prophets who led mankind into the realm of light through art.
I hope that Artist Han will humbly follow the path of art like a disciplinant.
In that sense, I hope that he will be active in the field of pure art, not as an artist in Korea, but one in Europe and Asia.

U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to pull back forces ahead of Turkey's Operation Peace Spring in northern Syria is a reflection of his long-stated policy goals, according to an analyst.
"President Trump has been clear he has no interest in miring the U.S. in a civil or sectarian conflict in that region. We did have a military objective there which was to defeat ISIS's military capability. We actually did accomplish that," Mollie Hemingway said during a Fox News television segment.
"The idea that we should stay there in perpetuity is something that clearly the foreign policy consensus in this town very much likes, but it is at odds with what a lot of people think about how we should be fighting wars, what our ideas should be about when we go into conflicts, when we get out," added the Fox News contributor and senior journalism fellow at Hillsdale College.
Trump has faced bipartisan opposition from lawmakers after he announced following a Sunday telephone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan that the U.S. would pull back its forces from the Syrian border.
"Congress has a clear Constitutional means to exercise its authority on military force. If they're so sure about keeping men and women in Syria, they should debate, define and authorize the use of force and deal with the electoral consequences," Hemingway said as Senator Lindsey Graham and a Democratic ally prepare sanctions legislation against Turkey.
The bill is expected to be introduced into the federal legislature next week.
Responding to criticism from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over Trump's decision to relocate U.S. forces in Syria, Hemingway said it is "interesting" that the former top diplomat "does not consider NATO member Turkey to be an ally. Wonder what she thinks the T stands for."
She was referring to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, of which Turkey and the U.S. are key members.
Clinton had tweeted that Trump's decision is a "sickening betrayal" of the YPG, which leads the U.S.-backed force in northeastern Syria.
Mike Dorian, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute think tank, lashed out at criticism to Turkey's operation from French President Emanuel Macron, saying "The goal should be to strengthen Turkey, a NATO ally. The Turkish-Syrian border is Europe's border with the Middle East."
"What is the Euro/French plan to solve the Syrian refugee crisis in Turkey (which holds 4 million refugees) and to stabilize the Turkish-Syrian border?" he asked.
Turkey on Wednesday launched Operation Peace Spring east of the Euphrates River in northern Syria to secure its borders by eliminating terrorist elements and to ensure the safe return of Syrian refugees and Syria's territorial integrity.
Ankara wants to eliminate terrorist elements from the PKK and its Syrian offshoot, the PYD/YPG.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the European Union — has been responsible for the deaths of 40,000 people, including women, children and infants.

US weight loss brand SlimFast has launched a new product line in the US that aims to bring convenience to consumers following the keto diet.
Called SlimFast Keto, the range consists of two meal replacement shake mixes (fudge brownie batter and vanilla cake batter), two meal replacement bars (whipped peanut butter and whipped triple chocolate), peanut butter cup fat bomb snacks, unsweetened keto coffee creamer and MCT oil. Meanwhile, SlimFast Keto test strips allow consumers to track their results.
SlimFast said the range provides dieters everything they need to make the keto diet easy, both at home and on the go.
Each bar, shake and fat bomb in the line is said to be made with a balanced amount of high-fat, low-carb, keto-compatible ingredients, including grass-fed butter, coconut oil, MCTs, and protein from whey and collagen.
SlimFast president Doug Reader said: "With new SlimFast Keto, we are giving American dieters what they told us they wanted for 2019 – they want a quick, easy and super-convenient way to follow the ketogenic diet."
Last October Glanbia announced it acquired SlimFast from Kainos Capital for $350 million, a deal which also includes SlimFast's sister company HNS.
Headquartered in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, SlimFast offers products such as sweet and savoury snacks, iced coffee, and meal replacement shakes and smoothies. In 2017, the brand delivered $212 million of net sales.
