Kingsley Napley is on an expansion drive.
Linda Woolley
The Clerkenwell firm added £2m to its turnover in 2009-10 from £19.5m to £21.5m, with increases in billings across the litigation groups.
"Criminal/regulatory exceeded budget, clinical negligence exceeded budget, and employment exceeded budget," says managing partner Linda Woolley, herself a criminal regulatory specialist. Corporate work accounted for £2.4m, property for £1.9m and family/private client for £1.9m.
Criminal/regulatory work remains the lynchpin of the practice - part of the heritage left by firm founder Sir David Napley, one of the most renowned fraud lawyers of the past few decades. However, the work profile has changed over the past decade, with legal aid work now accounting for only one per cent of the criminal/regulatory practice.
With 14 partners, criminal regulatory work represents 41 per cent of the business, or £8.8m in turnover. This year's highlights include partner and head of department Stephen Gentle securing an acquittal for former McDermott partner Michael McFall on an FSA insider dealing case, while partner Stephen Pollard acted for former British Airways commercial director Martin George on the OFT price-fixing case, where charges were eventually withdrawn. The firm has targeted more public law and judicial review work with the hire earlier this year of Adam Chapman, formerly of the Treasury Solicitor's Department and the Attorney General's Office.
"It's drawing on what we already do but giving us more expertise," says Woolley, pointing out that criminal partner Jonathan Grimes has been representing soldiers and former soldiers who are witnesses in the Baha Mousa public inquiry.
The second growth area has been claimant clinical negligence, headed by Kate Rohde. That has been underlined by investment in well-regarded lateral hires such as Dr Jock Mackenzie from Leigh Day and Stephanie Code, former clinical negligence head at Charles Russell. The third is employment, in which Kingsley Napley is winning a growing reputation for advising City institutions, including magic circle firms, on employment

Was a beautiful ring, even better than described. I was very concerned by the shipping time but it arrived on the last day of the estimate (christmas eve). They were quick to respond to my frenzied emails and assured me that i would receive my package on time.
Far better than the photo. My wife is going to love this- I hope. I have already recommended them to other people.
Hi, I just received my ring and I can't tell you how happy I am. I was surprised to find out how it was packaged. What a nice touch. The bag, the box and the bear. I was not expecting that at all. I'm so glad I discovered you through AOL. I have been looking for a ring like this for many, many months. I wanted the birthstone of my favorite cat and I wanted it to be heartshaped and I wanted little diamond accents on each side of the stone. I looked all over the internet and visited many jewelry stores. No one but you had exactly what I wanted and at such a great price too. I told myself not to expect to much when the ring arrived, because it just all seemed too good to be true. It wasn't. It was perfect. I put it on right away and haven't taken it off since, nor do I intend to. I show it to everyone. Thank you very, very much.

109 Tasting Notes
With scents of warm, comforting toasted kasha and a bright, woody flavor, I'm really enjoying this tea. It's more astringent than some of my other favorites, and that seems to really work with its bright, lemon note. Unfortunately, this is the sort of tea that can dull my tastebuds for a couple of days, so I'll have to lay off of it for a while.
A fun free sample from Capital, and surprisingly delicious. It's part of their kids' tea collection and supposed to taste like Jolly Ranchers (which is an overstatement). I would never in a million years have picked this up, but….I might just buy it now. I can't decide just from tasting it whether it has any sweetener in it, but I suspect it doesn't. It's probably just slightly sweet from the fruit. It has a deep, real strawberry taste, and I can imagine this would be incredibly refreshing over ice too. I might just have to investigate their other kids' teas!
Being pretty new to matcha, I ordered this (their middle-of-the-road version) and the 'supreme' version of it from O-Cha. I drank only the supreme until it was gone. I figured if I don't know much about matcha, I'll calibrate my tastebuds to what they consider their top category, then try out others to see if they're missing anything. Oh, and this is. After spoiling myself with the delicately bittersweet deliciousness of the supreme, this was comparatively harsh, and missing the sweetness, leaving only the bitter. Maybe it's one of those things where once I become a matcha junkie I don't much care (you know, the way people who need their coffee will drink – and enjoy – Starbucks, but everyone else is better off with something more delicate), but for now, I'm going to go ahead with a monthly subscription to the supreme. Okay, the Starbucks comparison isn't quite fair. I could still imagine myself drinking this one every day, but now I'm spoiled. If you're only getting one, go for the supreme.
I tend to make large pots of this one. I don't get much vanilla here, but there is a very nice balance between all the flavors that keeps me drinking it all day long, and it's reasonably priced enough to do that. The flavors are not particularly strong either, so I would actually never mention this for someone looking for a real earl grey flavor. It's more like a basic white tea with just a little extra, unidentifiable something.
What a strange beast. My little brain puts its oolongs into fairly neat categories of 'roasty', 'green and floral', and 'milk' (its own thing, apparently), but this tea is none of those. On first sip, I thought it would land – lightly – in the roasty category. But as it cools…no. It's surprisingly delicate, but then leaves with a touch of sweetness. It's like trying to taste honeysuckle sap from the flower when you can almost get it. I don't know if I'll repurchase given the steep price, but it's not off the table.
I suddenly need a Nat Sherman.
Nat Sherman is not a bad choice my friend, but I would prefer a Padron Landes or
a Montecristo Torpedo (the Cuban version might over power it a tad though)
The Padron would truly enhance the cacao IMHO ;-)
This is the best balance of bergamot and green tea flavor I've found, and the tea is quite tasty. If only I liked the bergamot better. There's something odd about it – it tastes like it was cut in half. I mean with part of the flavor just missing, not like it's weak. My favorite Earl Green yet, but it's not a terribly successful category for me to start with, which makes me sad. There is so much potential here.
My only comparison is Golden Moon's Coconut Pouchong, which didn't suit me at all. All I tasted there was a perfumey, inescapable coconut that lingered on my cup, measuring spoon, and I think entire kitchen all day. This is quite different. I taste a green, floral oolong with a light, warm, coconut overlay. I'm still not sure how I feel about flavored oolongs, but if I'm going to own one, it will be this one. It's a light, balanced, complex cup, and I'm enjoying it quite a bit!
sorry to hear the Coconut Pouchong didn't suit you. i personally love coconut, so i suppose it was no deterrent for me. one thing which struck me though, is how delicate the tea flavor is! (if you can see past the coconut..) did u find that to be the case? that it was especially delicate? not sure what 'inherently oolong' characteristics i was able to pick up.

Molly Ringwald's Cabaret Debut: Concert Review
The Bottom Line
The star of such teenage film classics as "Sixteen Candles" and "Pretty in Pink" sings popular standards in her impressive NYC cabaret debut.
54 Below
New York City
(Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2013)
The former teen idol's debut album, a collection of standards entitled "Except…Sometimes," drops in April.
Molly Ringwald is juggling a lot of hats these days. Unlike many former teen stars, she's moved gracefully into adult roles, currently starring in the ABC Family series The Secret Life of the American Teenager. She's a published author of fiction, having just released a novel, When It Happens to You. Her debut album, a collection of standards entitled Except…Sometimes, drops in April. And Tuesday night she made her New York City cabaret debut at the popular new club 54 Below.
Performing with an expert jazz trio led by pianist/musical director Peter Smith, Ringwald, looking elegantly gorgeous, displayed enough vocal chops to demonstrate that she's no dilettante. She actually made her recording debut at age 6, on an album by her jazz pianist father Bob Ringwald, and her musical theater experience includes starring roles in a national tour of Sweet Charity and the Broadway revival of Cabaret.

Singing in a sweet soprano voice, she delivered such classics as "I Get Along Without You Very Well," "Exactly Like You" and "I'll Take Romance" with deep reservoirs of feeling. Her voice was a bit wobbly at times, especially on such numbers as "Where is Love," from Oliver, which was delivered in a slow tempo that did her no favors. But she managed to swing on a jazzy version of "On the Street Where You Live," and she sang "Sooner or Later," from the film Dick Tracy, with a sultriness that well compared to Madonna's original.
She also displayed her Francophile leanings with a soulful rendition of the French song "J'Attendrai" ("I Will Wait"), after which she pointed out, "I feel like I should have a martini in my hand while singing this song." The wish was quickly accommodated by the club's management.
PHOTOS: Madonna: Iconic Career and Life in Pictures
Although she kept her stage banter to a minimum, her comments were both moving and personal, sometimes amusingly so. Referencing the fact that she had played Sally Bowles in Cabaret at Studio 54, located right above the club, she admitted, "My daughter may or may not have been conceived in my dressing room."
In a clever nod to the many fans of her teen film classics, she ended the evening with Simple Minds' "Don't You (Forget About Me)" from The Breakfast Club soundtrack, effectively rearranged as a jazz ballad. "It's not in the American Songbook yet," she said, before adding "But I'm thinking that it someday might be."

Obama Removes 'God' from Gettysburg Address Print article Send a Tip by Larry O'Connor 19 Nov 2013 post a comment Washington DC talk show host Chris Plante reported today that Barack Obama omitted the words "under God" from the Gettysburg Address when reciting the great speech for a Ken Burns documentary. Burns had filmed all living presidents as well as various Hollywood personalities and luminaries to pay homage to the speech which was delivered by Abraham Lincoln 150 years ago, today. Plante broke the story on Washington DC talk radio station WMAL on his mid-morning program, "The Chris Plante Show." WMAL reports: Curiously enough, in his version of the speech, President Barack Obama's delivery contained an omission - in a line that every other celebrity delivered as "that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom," the President left out the words "under God." UPDATE: A text box now appears on the Ken Burns website www.learntheaddress.org which states: "Did you know there are five versions of the Gettysburg Address? We asked President Obama to read the first, the Nicolay Version." A cached version of the same webpage from several days ago shows no such reference. The video of Obama's rendition of the speech can be seen below. It is unlisted (for now) on the Ken Burns YouTube page.

Tell a Great Story will be scratched from the $600,000 Alabama Stakes (gr. I) after breaking out in hives the morning of Aug. 16 at Saratoga Race Course, according to Tom Mullikin, Sagamore Racing's general manager.
The Maryland homebred daughter of Bluegrass Cat was most recently third in the Delaware Oaks (gr. II) July 13 at Delaware Park, where she won the Go for Wand Stakes a month earlier.
Tell a Great Story arrived at Saratoga Aug. 12 for a run in the 1 1/4-mile Alabama. Listed at 12-1 odds, she was to break from the rail post. Her defection leaves just five 3-year-old fillies in the Aug. 17 race, which is headed by 3-5 morning line pick Princess of Sylmar.
Mullikin said in a statement that Tell a Great Story had been doing well in advance of the race before suffering hives.
"Since she was to race tomorrow, we could not medicate her, and instead tried several measures, including changing out her bedding, in the hopes the hives would dissipate," he said. "Unfortunately, the hives have gotten worse so we will treat her and she will be scratched from the Alabama Stakes at Saratoga this weekend.
"This is very disappointing for the entire Sagamore Racing team after putting in so much hard work over the past few months to get us to this point," Mullikin added. "We were very excited about the opportunity to have our homebred filly in such a prestigious race."
Tell a Great Story, out of the Not for Love mare Roadtohanna, owns a 3-1-2 mark from six starts with earnings of $136,820. Ignacio Correas IV trains the chestnut filly.

Obesity a growing problem as figures show 10-year-olds weighing over 20 stones
Figures revealing children with levels of body fat far above what is considered a healthy range have outlined the scale of England's childhood obesity problem.
NHS figures reveal a 10-year-old girl weighing more than 24 stone and an 11-year-old boy weighing 23 stone.
The statistics reported in The Sunday Times show the child of each sex with the highest recorded body mass index [BMI] in England between 2006 and 2012.
Seven children were found by the newspaper to weigh more than 20 stone in the six years running up to 2012. They came from Lancashire, Cumbria, Manchester, Wandsworth and Hounslow in West London.
The 10-year-old, who was the heaviest recorded girl in 2006-07 and lived in Hounslow, was 4ft 10in tall and 24 stone 5lb, giving her a BMI of 71. The healthy range is between 18.5 and 25.
There has been a fourfold increase in the number of children and teenagers admitted to hospital with obesity-related conditions in the past decade, according to a study by a team at Imperial College London, published in June.
BMI is a measure of body fat which is arrived at when a person's weight in kilos is divided by their height in metres. To get the BMI figure they must then divide this figure by their height again.
Tam Fry, spokesman for the National Obesity Forum, an organisation which seeks to raise awareness about the problem, told the paper: "We have come to accept that 26 per cent of adults in the UK are obese but we should be outraged that 20 per cent of children are too."

Has to be the oldest, dirtiest, most outdated La Quinta in the system. On check in one of the rooms was unserviceable as the door had been kicked in and the door facing was missing. The rooms were archaic by La Quinta standards. Our television was broken on Friday night and although we reported it on Saturday morning it was still not working on Saturday night. When I called the front desk I was told to pull out the TV,unplug it and it would reboot itself. Did not work. Toilet flushed poorly and people raised hell all night without anyone doing anything to stop it..

SANTA CLARA, California (AP) — Chris Wondolowski scored his Major League Soccer-leading 26th goal as the San Jose Earthquakes came back twice in the second half to earn a 2-2 draw with the Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday.
Wondolowski's diving header in the 73rd minute off Marvin Chavez's corner put him one goal behind Roy Lassiter's MLS season record with one game left.
Robbie Keane scored his 12th goal in 15 games, and Edson Buddle, making his first start since May 26, nodded in his third of the season to stake the Galaxy to a pair of second-half leads.
But Marvin Chavez curled a beautiful free kick, and Wondolowski finally broke through after hitting the post twice in successive minutes earlier in the second half.
The Galaxy are virtually assured of finishing fourth in the Western Conference, and thus having to play an extra postseason match.
Portland's Jack Jewsbury scored in the 39th minute as the Timbers beat Vancouver 1-0 to spoil the Whitecaps' bid to clinch a playoff spot in front of their home fans.
The Whitecaps ended up securing a playoff spots hours later when Seattle beat Dallas.

text: Pope Francis gives first annual address to Diplomatic CorpsJanuary 18, 2014 - 10:28 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Pope Francis gave his first annual address to the Diplomatic Corps accredited to the Holy See, Vatican Radio reports. In his speech, the religious leader expressed his concern over the conflict in Syria, saying it was "unacceptable" that unarmed civilians become targets. Pope Francis also praised those countries which have welcomed refugees from the crisis into their borders. "In recent months, tens of thousands of those Armenians fled to the Republic of Armenia to escape horrors and violence and we understand probably better than any other the drama of this situation that the Pope has vigorously denounced since his election," said Mikayel Minasyan, the Ambassador of Armenia to the Holy See. "The Armenian government highly praises the efforts of the Holy Father directed to the enhancement of peace in Syria and truly hopes that the Geneva 2 Conference, mentioned also by the Pope in his speech, could be a turning point," he told Vatican Radio. "We believe that conflicts are better settled through dialogue," Minasyan continued. "We share on this matter the same position of the Holy See, that only a negotiated agreement can lead to a durable peace." Ambassador Minasyan is the first Armenian Ambassador to the Holy See to reside in Rome. "The decision of the Armenian President to open a permanent diplomatic mission in Rome, ascribed to the Holy See, outlines the importance that we attach to our mutually shared values and concerns and is a direct recognition of the diplomatic role of the Holy See in the world," he said.

Drake loses to Wichita St team it wants to emulate |
No. 5 Wichita State 78, Drake 61. With AP Photos.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Drake saw what it hopes to become as a basketball team. The Bulldogs just had to take a beating to fully appreciate it.
Fifth-ranked Wichita State strolled into a near full house at Drake's Knapp Center and rolled past the Bulldogs 78-61 on Saturday night. Cleanthony Early scored 19 points and Ron Baker added 14 for the Shockers (21-0, 8-0 Missouri Valley Conference), who outrebounded Drake 34-20 and locked down on the Bulldogs defensively in the second half.
''That team is extremely tough-minded,'' Drake coach Ray Giacoletti said. ''Each possession offensively and defensively, they control their destiny. They don't splinter ever. We were not able to make them splinter.
''To me, one through 10, it's a mirror of what we want to look like down the road.''
For now, though, Giacoletti has to deal with the present and his team simply could not match up against the longer, more talented Shockers, who limited Drake to four field goals in the first 14 1/2 minutes of the second half.
And almost everything the Bulldogs got was from the perimeter. The Shockers outscored Drake 32-10 in the paint.
''It's just their tough-mindedness defensively,'' Giacoletti said. ''That's something that's really hard to have within a team of 10 or 12. We're going to try to build on that.''
Nick Wiggins had 11 points for Wichita State, which fended off Drake throughout the first half before outscoring the Bulldogs 28-15 at the start of the second to take control.
Aaron Hawley scored 16 points to lead Drake (11-9, 2-6), which lost for the sixth time in seven games. Chris Caird added 15 and Jordan Daniels 12.
Leading scorer Richard Carter was held to five shots and six points.
''We came into the game with no pressure on us,'' Hawley said. ''The crowd was great. We just came out a little flat in the second half. For whatever reason, I felt we lost our energy a little bit.''
The Bulldogs had their moments against the Valley's top team. But they, like nearly everyone else in the league, couldn't stop the Shockers from imposing their will.
Baker answered a Drake 3 with a three-point play through traffic with 15:45 left - and that kicked off a pair of spurts that overwhelmed the Bulldogs.
Chadrack Lufile scored inside, and Tekele Cotton's floater put the Shockers ahead 52-35 with just more than 13 minutes left. Early then soared through the paint to flush down an errant shot, and Wiggins' three-point play capped an 11-0 run that made it 65-44.
Wichita State next hosts Loyola and Evansville ahead of what could be its toughest test of the regular season - at 16-4 Indiana State on Feb. 5.
It's been six years since Drake caught the nation's attention with a stunning surge to the Valley championship, the program's first in 37 seasons, and it's been a struggle for the Bulldogs to return to that level.
Drake started the season 10-3 and whipped Evansville 94-66 in its league opener before succumbing to the heart of its Valley schedule.
But the Bulldogs did their best to push the Shockers early.
They hit nine of their first 16 shots to stay as close as 30-26. But Baker found Cotton for a left-handed alley-oop that sent Wichita State into the break with a 37-29 lead.
Cotton then opened the second half with another dunk and the Shockers were on their way to their eighth road win.
''We weren't playing great defense in the first half, they were just missing shots,'' Caird said. ''They turned it around in the second half. They started making shots and I think they fed off that.''

I don't want to be 'Tolerated', thank you very much. I want to be ACCEPTED as EQUAL !
Can you imagine the storm that would erupt if some backwoodsman Tory MP patronisingly said that black people should be 'Tolerated'? His feet would hardly touch the ground…
So why should we settle for anything less?
But people do say "we tolerate black people".

Damon Harris: Soul singer who joined the ranks of his boyhood idols, The Temptations
"The Temptations had been the most major influence on me. I was very proud to be where I was"
When Damon Harris auditioned for the Temptations in April 1971, the Motown vocal group were in a state of flux.
Eddie Kendricks, the first tenor whose yearning falsetto on "The Way You Do the Things You Do", "Get Ready" and "Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)" had become such a feature of their trademark sound, had left; and his original replacement, Ricky Owens, wasn't working out and would soon return to his Los Angeles group, The Vibrations. Paul Williams, the Temptations' baritone, had finally retired because of ill-health and been replaced by the versatile stand-in Richard Street, joining founder members Mervin Franklin – the bass vocalist – and Otis Williams – "the tenor in the middle" – as well as Dennis Edwards, who had taken over from David Ruffin as the other lead tenor in July 1968.
Harris was only 20, but he had previously led the Young Tempts, a Temptations soundalike outfit, whose 1970 cover of "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby" for The Isley Brothers' T-Neck Records had attracted the attention of Motown's legal department and forced a hasty name change to The Young Vandals. "I first met Dennis Edwards in Baltimore through a mutual friend and I sung for him," Harris told Blues & Soul magazine in 1972. "Then later on, I met the entire group in Washington, D.C., and I did an audition for them. Fortunately, I was the one chosen to come into the group," recalled the silky-voiced Harris, who had grown up idolising Kendricks and now found himself stepping into his shoes. Edwards, Franklin and Street had out-voted Otis Williams, who felt that Harris might be too young to handle the assignment.
"Since I was ten years old, The Temptations had been the most major influence on me," said Harris. "I always listened to them and I always said I wanted to be like them in respect of being an entertainer and being able to perform like they always did. I just never ever thought I was going to be where I was, but I was very proud."
Within weeks, he had not only perfected The Temptations' tricky vocal interplay and elaborate stage routines, but was also recording at Motown's legendary studio, Hitsville USA, with Norman Whitfield, the group's demanding producer and songwriter, and the visionary architect of the group's "psychedelic, cinematic soul" sound. "Superstar (Remember How You Got Where You Are)", Whitfield's not-so-veiled attack on Ruffin and Kendricks, and the first single Harris contributed to, made the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, but its subject matter should have served as a warning to the new recruit. However, he undeniably brought an injection of youth and enthusiasm to subsequent Temptations hits like 1972's harmony-rich "Take a Look Around" – and helped them win the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with the symphonic "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone", their last US Pop No 1, in 1973.
Indeed, his tenure spanned a purple patch of releases which included the bestselling albums Solid Rock and All Directions (both 1972) and four US R&B chart-toppers: the majestic, socially-conscious title track of their Masterpiece album (1973); the funky "Let Your Hair Down" from the 1990 album (1974), their last Whitfield-conceived release; the infectious "Happy People", featuring the Commodores; and the hypnotic "Shakey Ground". The latter two both came from A Song for You (1975), the album produced by Jeffrey Bowen and Motown founder Berry Gordy Jr., on which Harris co-wrote "I'm a Batchelor".
Accounts differ as to how Harris fell out with the rest of the group and was replaced by Glenn Leonard in 1975. "We were sorry to have to drop him, but, again, no one man is greater than the group," reflected Otis Williams, who is now the sole original Temptation and the only surviving member of their classic Sixties line-up since Paul Williams, Ruffin, Kendricks and Franklin have all died.
Talking to Blues & Soul in 1976, Harris wasn't as diplomatic. "The whole Motown experience left me pretty disillusioned and I really couldn't accept the way the company functioned in certain respects. I couldn't deal with a lot of things that the Temps as a group were subjected to. My hands were tied and even getting my complete release from Motown proved a problem. But the experience didn't leave me bitter," said Harris, whose contribution was not acknowledged when The Temptations were inducted into the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame in 1989.
He was born Otis Robert Harris, Jr., in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1950, but changed his first name to Damon when he joined The Temptations because "the group already had an Otis." As a teenager, he gigged with local group the Tempos, before moving on to the Young Tempts. In 1972, when Smokey Robinson left the Miracles, Harris recommended his childhood friend Billy Griffin, who wound up replacing his childhood hero, like he had the previous year.
Following his stint in The Temptations, Harris teamed up with the erstwhile Young Vandals and renamed the group Impact. In 1976, they signed with WMOT – the acronym stood for We Men of Talent – the Philadelphia production company behind Blue Magic and Major Harris, and released an eponymous album distributed by Atlantic. His wonderful falsetto helped "Happy Man" and "Give a Broken Heart a Break" find favour on the disco scene, but, despite containing his excellent vocal arrangement of the Hall & Oates composition "Sara Smile", their 1977 follow-up, The Pac Is Back, didn't perform well. In 1978, he issued his well-titled solo debut, Silk, which failed to turn him into a soul balladeer to rival Teddy Pendergrass.
He moved to Reno, Nevada, where he resumed his studies and, after graduating, taught troubled youngsters. In the Nineties he returned to performing Temptations hits, but was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He spent the last decade of his life raising awareness of a disease which affects a much higher proportion of African-American than white men.
Otis Robert Harris, Jr., aka Damon Harris, singer and songwriter: born Baltimore, Maryland 17 July 1950; married 1973 Christina Combs (marriage dissolved); died Baltimore 18 February 2013.

MLB At A Crossroads, Day 53: MLB Argues Injunction Appeal
Published December 28, 2001
During oral arguments yesterday in MLB's and the Twins' appeal to overturn a temporary injunction requiring the Twins to fulfill the final year of their Metrodome lease in '02, the MN Court of Appeals "offered what could be some inkling of its concerns" by "peppering attorneys with more that 30 questions," according to Furst & Souhan of the Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE. It is speculated that if the injunction is overturned, MLB would then proceed with its plans to contract the Twins. Furst & Souhan report that two of the judges on the three-judge panel "seemed to have major questions about the owners' central thesis" that the Twins are "merely a tenant that wants to break a typical lease agreement and should not be subject to an injunction." But the judges also "raised concerns" about whether the injunction "spelled out the reasons why" the lower court prevented baseball owners from contracting the Twins. Furst & Souhan also report that the Court of Appeals "opened another maze of possibilities" when it "floated the idea" of possibly sending the case back to the lower court so Hennepin Co. (MN) District Judge Harry Crump "could elaborate further" on the specific reasons why he issued the injunction. Any "decision by the Appeals Court that delays an ultimate decision on the Twins' fate could keep the team in business" for '02 (Minn. STAR TRIBUNE, 12/28). In MN, Phillip Pina reports that the Court of Appeals panel Judges Edward Toussaint, Jr., Robert Schumacher and Roger Klaphake has 90 days to rule on the case, "although an opinion is expected within days" (PIONEER PRESS, 12/28).
BIG BILLS: In MN, Charley Walters writes if AL business exec Donald Watkins can purchase the Twins and privately finance a new ballpark, he will "impress some of sport's top operators, who say it still won't work." Walters notes that after buying the team, building a ballpark and adding in $30M in losses over the first three years, the cost to Watkins would be $580M. Walters: "Figure in annual debt service of $60 million for a team with annual revenues of less than $50 million" (ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS, 12/28).
