Football: Koeman leaves England in tatters: Referee condemned as Ronald Koeman escapes red card to break brave resistance with deft free-kick
Thursday 14 October 1993
GRAHAM TAYLOR'S England managership has seen more dodgy bets than Gamblers' Anonymous and while there will be much sympathy for the way of it, the failure of his latest high-risk selection last night has probably signalled the end of his ill-starred reign.
Defeat by the Dutch leaves England in need of a football miracle to get to the World Cup finals. More precisely, the requirement is for Poland, who cannot qualify, to beat the Netherlands next month, while Taylor's dispirited team score a hatful against San Marino.
Statistically they still have a chance. In reality, their prospects dissolved on a night when Lady Luck withheld the smiles the beleaguered manager had called for from all present.
Ronald Koeman, having failed with a poor free-kick, scored when he was fortunate enough to be given a second attempt, and Dennis Bergkamp strangled England's fightback at birth by rifling in the second after controlling the ball with his hand.
To add insult to injury, the referee refused David Platt an obvious penalty when Ronald Koeman tugged him back by the shirt, and Tony Dorigo and Paul Merson went desperately close in rattling the framework of Ed de Goey's goal.
If it was not for bad luck, England would have had no luck at all, but the good sides, they say, make their own, and from day one in the qualifying series, when they surrendered a point at home to the Norwegians, they have not been good enough.
The decisive incidents may have been contentious, but the Dutch are the better side, and deserve to go forward with Norway, who secured their place in the finals by beating Poland 2-0.
England's spirit was never in doubt, but they missed the pace and spontaneity of Ian Wright and lumbered themselves with a second unnecessary handicap in recalling Carlton Palmer, who lasted just one half before Taylor acknowledged his mistake by replacing him with Andy Sinton.
Even at maximum strength, England would have been hard pressed to gain the draw they needed here. Deprived of Paul Gascoigne, Les Ferdinand and Stuart Pearce, and further undermined by at least two poor selections, it was never going to be their night.
The players, denied the rub of the green, were desperately disappointed. They had dug deep into their reserves of mental resolve to produce a creditable performance in difficult circumstances. On another night, it might well have produced the point they came for.
Tuesday's 'vibes', to borrow Taylor's buzzword, had not been good, with the announcement of a much- changed team provoking a confrontational press conference, and an us-and-them situation which did nothing for morale.
The selectorial surprises continued into the game, with Paul Merson, not David Platt, partnering Alan Shearer in attack, and Palmer stationed not in front of the back four, to pick up Bergkamp, but on the right side of midfield.
The invigorating atmosphere, as much as the importance of the match, lifted the players on what was an 'I was there' occasion. Some 5,000 from England were, but a few hundred more who might have been were not, the Dutch police deporting alleged hooligans by the plane-load.
There had been trouble in the town, but inside the ground all was bonhomie, with oompah-band drinking songs booming down from the stands. 'You'll never walk alone' would have done credit to the Kop choir.
Unfortunately, the tunes of glory were all Dutch.
The Netherlands' names were ominously familiar, but the ever-changing face of Taylor's England was reflected in the fact that Paul Parker - his 12th right-back in three years - was the sole survivor from the goalless draw between the two sides during Italia '90. Only four players - Platt, Ince, Adams and Palmer - remained from the 2-2 draw at Wembley six months ago. So much for continuity.
Ominously, the Dutch soon made inroads on the right, where the pace of Marc Overmars unsettled Dorigo, who was booked after 31 minutes for knocking over his tormentor.
An Overmars cross, laid back invitingly by Bryan Roy, had Bergkamp shooting over from 15 yards, and the men in orange were into their stride. Jan Wouters, letting fly from distance, tested the muscles around David Seaman's solar plexus, and England were grateful for the encouragement supplied when Merson set up Platt for a strong shot, well saved.
Those English smiles Taylor had wanted were much in evidence when Merson turned John de Wolf near the touchline before cutting in from the left at pace. Good, penetrative stuff, spoiled only by the finish, which had power but no direction.
The chance sparked a purple patch which might easily have brought England a half-time lead. Dorigo, with a 25-yard free-kick, had de Goey leaping to his right to touch the ball on to, and round the post, and a shot from Tony Adams, of all people, had Erwin Koeman hacking the ball away.
Even at the height of England's prosperity, however, Bergkamp was allowed too much freedom, and there was no one near him when he volleyed Roy's cross wastefully over.
Luck seemed to be on England's side just before the interval when Frank Rijkaard, supplied by Ronald de Boer, stabbed the ball past Seaman at close range before having his celebrations curtailed by an offside decision which television replays proved to be in error.
The Dutch resumed as they had left off, with Rijkaard's clever pass sending Bergkamp accelerating through the middle for a low shot which had Seaman scrambling to the base of his left-hand post.
Luck, and the game, turned after 57 minutes, when Ronald Koeman grabbed Platt a yard inside the penalty area,and England's players looked on in disbelief when the referee awarded a free-kick on the 18- yard line.
Dorigo's strike was charged down, and bad became infinitely worse after an hour, when Wouters was floored by Ince in a similar position at the other end. The initial free- kick, taken by Ronald Koeman, was safely repelled, but the referee ordered it to be retaken, indicating that Ince had moved too early.
Ince pointed out, with justification, that the Dutch wall had got away with charging down Dorigo just as quickly, but his protest brought no more than a booking.
To his fury, the Dutch scored when the kick was retaken, Koeman surprising England's defenders by opting for precision instead of power, and chipping the ball past Seaman's flailing right hand.
Midway through the second half it was 2-0, and England were almost certainly on their way out of the World Cup.
Again they could count themselves unlucky, Bergkamp using a hand to bring the ball under control before shooting low, past Seaman's dive, but that was that. It looks like Majorca rather than Orlando in June.

adidas says aggregate reaction to sleeved jerseys from players and fans has been 'very positive'
Jan 18, 2014, 8:00 AM EST
NEW YORK – The 2014 All-Star jerseys were officially unveiled by the folks at adidas on Thursday, but media were invited to the company's showroom in New York the week prior to get a look at the uniform collection in person.
Along with the sneak peek, executives from adidas and the NBA were available to discuss the sleeved design, which has been controversial among fans from the very start.
But as we continue to discuss, as long as they sell, they aren't going anywhere. And Chris Grancio, adidas head of global basketball sports marketing confirmed that the sales of the sleeved alternate jerseys have, to this point, indeed been very strong.
"Terrific," Grancio told NBCSports.com. "[Sales have] exceeded expectations. We're very pleased with the results so far, and in our view, based on the way in aggregate players and consumers have reacted to it, it's been very positive."
That last part is contrary to what you may think if you do nothing but read basketball Twitter when the topic of the sleeved jerseys comes up, and the game's best player in LeBron James, remember, made a point to complain about them following his poor outside shooting performance on Christmas Day against the Lakers.
The company doesn't do any custom fitting of the jerseys, but they do, however, make samples in all sizes widely available to teams before they're scheduled to play in them in a game that counts. And that included LeBron and the Heat long before Christmas.
"He had practiced in it," said Christopher Arena, NBA Vice President of Apparel, Sporting Goods & Basketball Partnerships. "I've seen pictures."
The majority of players, according to Grancio, say the sleeved jerseys have zero impact on their performance, and that they are a complete non-issue after a very short time.
"Probably the most consistent piece of feedback I hear from players when we go to a team practice and work with the equipment manager, put sizing samples out and they go shoot for a few minutes — the number one thing we hear back is, 'I forget I'm wearing it,' " Grancio said. "With the amount of design work that went into ensuring that this jersey performs identically to a tank, we've really delivered that. And when I've been in locker rooms talking to players about it, the consensus has been, 'after I'm out there shooting and playing for 10 or 15 minutes, I forget that it's different.' "
The debate will rage on, but as long as sales continue to exceed expectations, the players are going to need to get used to it. adidas maintains that it hasn't been a problem for most, and in fact, some players who have big games wearing them may instantly become the sleeved jerseys' biggest supporters.
"We've done tremendous amounts of testing with NBA athletes," Grancio said. "And there is no performance difference. Based on athlete feedback, based on the numbers, it really is aesthetic preference, I think.
"Chris Paul scored 40 the first time he wore one in a pre-season game, so, he's a fan."

Standard equipment on the 2011 Infiniti M37 includes the seven-speed automatic gearbox, bi-Xenon lights, 10-way power front seats, reversing camera, an hard disk drive sound system and Infiniti's new Drive ModeSelector.
As we move up on the range the 2011 Infiniti M37 GT price starts at 37,650 GBP and the additional features include semi-aniline leather, heated and ventilated front seats and White Ash wood trim with silver powder finish.
On the 2011 Infiniti M37S customers will also get the 4-Wheel Active Steering (4WAS), the sports suspension,sports seats and gearshift paddles and 20-inch alloy wheels. The 2011 Infiniti M37S price starts at 39,650 GBP.
As far as the 2011 Infiniti M37 GT Premium and the M37S Premium pricing starts at 43,000 GBP and 45,000 GBP respectively, and the difference is made by the Dynamic Safety Shield package, the Forest Air system, the 16-speaker Bose sound system and Infiniti's Connectiviti plus information and entertainment platform.
Infiniti press release :
ROLLE, Switzerland (19 July 2010) – Infiniti has confirmed its new M37, the first of a trio of V6-powered, rear-wheel drive luxury performance saloons to take on Europe's executive-car hierarchy, will be available in five different grades priced from £35,150.
With a design inspired by the Essence concept car of 2009, this all-new model developed for European roads is available now from the UK's inaugural Infiniti Centre in Reading, Berkshire. However, buyers the length and breadth of Britain who are ready for an alternative to the familiar faces of the sports saloon class can explore every facet of the M37's design, spec and equipment, from first brush-stroke to last trim detail, online at www.infiniti.eu. Here, they can configure their ideal M37 and watch it in motion driving through a variety of sci-fi inspired landscapes.
Powered by Infiniti's 3.7-litre petrol V6 developing 316 bhp (320 PS), the M37 backs up its athletic looks with a strong driver focus and Infiniti's biggest and best-appointed interior yet.
The M37 is also Infiniti's most technologically advanced car with a comprehensive suite of electronic driver aids/anti-collision systems, collectively badged Dynamic Safety Shield. For the Premium models expected to be the biggest sellers, the standard Safety Shield includes the world-first Blind Spot Intervention™, a system which registers nearby vehicles and helps ensure the Infiniti cannot stray into their path.
Other debut technologies available include Active Noise Control and Forest Air™, a climate control system that recreates the gentle breezes and subtle scents of an environment known to promote alertness and relieve stress.
The M37 range for the UK
As with all Infinitis, the M37 is surprisingly well equipped without the need for buyers to raid an options list. Prices start at £35,150 with features common to all including, for example, 7-speed automatic transmission, bi-Xenon lights, 10-way power front seats, reversing camera, hard disk drive (HDD) sound system and Infiniti's new Drive Mode Selector which tailors key driving parameters to Sport, Normal, Snow and Eco settings.
The M37 GT (from £37,650) puts the emphasis on even greater luxury with semi-aniline leather, heated and ventilated front seats and White Ash wood trim with silver powder finish. The M37S (from £39,650) is the sporting choice, with 4-Wheel Active Steering (4WAS), sports suspension, sports seats (also heated and ventilated), gearshift paddles and 20-inch alloy wheels.
Premium versions of both the GT (from £43,000) and the S (from £45,000) come with every feature available, including the Dynamic Safety Shield package, Forest Air, a 16-speaker Bose® sound system and Infiniti's acclaimed Connectiviti+ information and entertainment platform comprising 30GB HDD navigation.
Premium versions also feature Infiniti's efficiency-boosting innovation, Eco Pedal. If driving too aggressively, the driver will feel the accelerator pedal "push back" to indicate fuel is being wasted.
The M37 accelerates from 0-62mph in 6.2 seconds and top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph. Fuel consumption on the combined cycle is 27.7 mpg while CO2 emissions are 235 g/km.
An M30d diesel is due in October and an M35 hybrid in spring 2011, both also with the emphasis on high performance and maximum driving pleasure. Prices and specifications for these versions will be announced later.
Three new Infiniti Centres, reflecting the contemporary style and luxury of a bespoke hotel far more than a car dealership, are due to open in Central London, Birmingham and Glasgow before the end of the year. They will join Infiniti Centre Reading in offering British drivers the entire "Inspired Performance" range from Japan's newest luxury car-maker.

Britain's best chef? His name is Michael Caines...
Praise for West Country chef as his restaurant wins industry award for second year in a row
Rob Hastings
Rob Hastings is Assistant News Editor at The Independent. He has served on the news desk since 2010. While working as a freelance reporter and feature writer he was also published by The Guardian, The Times and the Financial Times.
Friday 06 January 2012
In the 25 years since he won student of the year at Exeter Catering College, Michael Caines has quietly collected two Michelin stars, an MBE and numerous other plaudits. Greater public recognition surely awaits now, after his Devon restaurant was named the best in the country for the second year in a row.
Mr Caines' signature eight-course menu – featuring venison with braised pork belly and partridge with quince purée – has helped Gidleigh Park secure the Remy Martin XO Excellence Award for the UK's best all-round restaurant, in the Harden's Restaurant Survey.
The West Country man has served as head chef at Gidleigh Park, a grand country house hotel on Dartmoor, since 1994.
That same year his workaholic nature led to him falling asleep at the wheel of his car, resulting in a car crashin which he lost his right arm. But he was back working two weeks later, evidently his prosthetic replacement limb has not held him back.
Mr Caines said the award was down to team work as well as local ingredients. "We give people food memories of the southwest to take home," he said. "Our lamb is farmed on Dartmoor, our veal from Cornwall, our scallops from Brixham and beetroot from our garden."
"He's very much at the entrepreneurial end of his generation, maintaining standards at Gidleigh while expanding his own brand," said publisher Peter Harden. "All chefs after a while are dependent on their ability to inspire the team around them rather than it just being an individual effort."
His counterpart at the Berkeley in London's Knightsbridge, Marcus Wareing, is also celebrating once again after winning the award for Britain's best dessert for the third time in three years.
He followed up last year's winner – a warm chocolate moelleux – with a new variation of his custard tart that won in 2009, this time accompanied by plum, crumble and plum ice cream.
Top restaurant in the capital overall has gone to last year's runner-up, Michel Roux Jr's Mayfair basement eaterie, Le
Gavroche. Its menu is suitably decadent, including lobster mousse with caviar and champagne butter sauce, and artichokes filled with foie gras, truffles and chicken mousse.
The key winners: What the judges said
Gidleigh Park, Chagford
With "outstanding" food and "truly special" wines, this "beautifully located" restaurant in a "delightful" Elizabethan mansion has been declared "perfect in every way". Apart from the prices, that is, which one reviewer called "extortionate" at £99 for three courses with coffee and petit fours.
Le Gavroche, Mayfair
Another restaurant that is "astronomically expensive" but "remarkable" for its "peerless" interpretation of "classic" French cooking.
The Berkeley, Knightsbridge
Among the "well crafted" dishes is its custard tart, hailed as "delectable, the filling silky-smooth and wobbly, its pastry, crisp and buttery".

Well, it isn't April 1st, and the press releases appear to be authentic, so we have to believe that this is true: MakerBot has launched a co-branding effort with Martha Stewart. So does that now make former startup MakerBot, officially, your mother's 3D-printing firm? Under the new partnership, MakerBot will sell their PLA filament in three of Martha's favorite colors: Jadeite, Robin's Egg, and Lemon Drop, in addition to producing "Martha Stewart for MakerBot Digital Store collections, with models to be purchased, downloaded and 3D printed on a MakerBot Replicator® 3D Printer."

Toyota Unveils Mirai Fuel Cell Vehicle With 300-Mile Range; Can it Kick-Start a Hydrogen Revolution?
A few months ago we gave you a hands-on first look at Toyota's upcoming fuel cell vehicle – and yesterday the automaker pulled out all the stops and unveiled the car's official name, performance specs, interior, and pricing for the first time. The Toyota Mirai can travel 300 miles on a single tank of compressed hydrogen, it has 153 horsepower with 247 lb-ft of torque, and it can go from 0-60 mph in 9 seconds. The hydrogen car will be available in California in fall 2015 for under $45,000 after incentives, and it's coming to the East Cost shortly thereafter. But the automaker is promising much more than a sleekly styled zero emission vehicle; Mirai translates to "the future" in Japanese, and Toyota's goal is to pave the way to a hydrogen-based society. Read on for everything you need to know about the company's first production fuel cell vehicle.

INTERVIEW: HOK's Yann Weymouth Discusses Designing the Hurricane-Resistant Salvador Dalí Museum
This article was originally published in October of 2011.
Earlier this year we reported on the opening of the stunning Salvador Dalí Museum located in St. Petersburg, Florida. The museum is home to the world's largest collection of Dalí works, and since its debut this past April, the dazzling venue has already welcomed over 300,000 visitors. With its clean minimalist lines juxtaposed against a sparkling geodesic glass atrium, the spectacular structure designed by HOK stands as a work of art in its own right, while still paying homage to the spirit of Salvador Dalí. The building also brings more to the table than just its looks. Housing over 2,000 pieces of Dalí's most important works, the museum is sited within a corner of the country that often finds itself battered by severe storms with catastrophic results. To prepare for the worst, HOK designed the shell of the structure to withstand a Category 5 hurricane. The design also features numerous green systems, including a solar hot water powered dehumidification system, high efficiency HVAC and ventilation systems, and strategic daylighting to illuminate the interiors. We recently sat down with principal architect and Senior Vice President of HOK Yann Weymouth who enlightened us on the intricacies of the design, and what it took to get the museum built. Jump ahead for our exclusive interview with Yann as he explains the design, and how his team of architects and engineers used Building Information Modeling to build a space that's not only beautiful and sustainable, but disaster-proof.

Muki the Toy Dog Encourages Kids' Creative Play and Environmental Awareness
Meet Muki: at face value a cardboard dog, but in reality a DIY children's toy kit that will encourage creative play. Muki is a simple product with minimalist lines using a very low-tech material. It also happens to have one of the funniest Indiegogo campaign videos we've seen in a while. As a multipurpose toy and a dog kids can call their own, it's a place they can cuddle and read, furniture they can draw on, and a desk their own size. It can also have wheels and become a ride-on toy, and can easily be modified into toy box, or turned into a bookshelf. Muki is the first product by Growing Up Creative designed by Tali Buchler, and the marks the beginning of a new line of furniture that can do double duty for play. Muki comes packaged in a flat cardboard "suitcase," is very easy to assemble and Muki and his packaging are also completely recyclable, creating no waste and promoting values of environmental awareness.

With Kefirko, You Can Brew Probiotic Kefir on Your Kitchen Counter
Packed with probiotics, vitamins, and minerals, kefir is a fermented drink that's as delicious as it is good for you. Kefirko, a new product that recently launched on Kickstarter, has made the home kefir creation process even easier with its specialized glass jar and dual lid system. With Kefirko, all you need to create your own superfood is a handful of fermentation grains and your choice of milk (dairy or non-dairy). To make the grain-sourcing even easier, the company has launched Kefirhood: an app that allows you to get in contact with others in your area who are making their own kefir at home (or would like to start), so those in the community can share grains with one another. This fabulous probiotic can be added to smoothies, homemade ice cream, puddings, and more, so consider backing this campaign and make a batch of your own!

Very Nice Rug with the right perspective
ANL from CT– Verified Buyer
This is a very nice rug, but before you buy it, consider this: it has a top and a bottom. If you examine the online image you are viewing it in the upright position, and you will most likely be impressed. Now imagine the same picture, turned up side down, and like any picture, when viewed up side down, it loses some of its impact. The same holds true when the rug is placed in a room. When you approach the rug, in the "upright" position, it pleases, but if you come into the room from a reverse angle, the rug loses something. When I first viewed this rug I did not like it, because I was viewing it up side down, but when I finally realized what was going on, I began to appreciate it. Rugs, such as most Orientals, which are for the most part symmetrical, do not have this issue, at least from my perspective.

Last week (Feb 2011) I got lucky on my commute: I saw a wonderful sunrise before getting on the train to Central London, and at Charing Cross we were told that Waterloo Underground Station (my interchange) was closed, so I got out and walked across the Thames, and took a few pictures as the light was brilliant and the view… well, you'll have to visit London and see for yourselves :)
This is a view of the suspension cables of the Hungerford (also known as Golden Jubilee) Bridge
Very interesting perspective and nice lighting. When you use the underground, you forget how walkable most of London is! :-)
Indeed, especially Central London, where the stations are so close to each other – and we're so much in a hurry that we think we couldn't possibly afford the extra minutes! Many thanks for the kind feedback, much appreciated!
– Themis
beautiful lines and shape!
Many thanks, Berns, for the visit and kind feedback, as well as for making it a favourite – really appreciated!

CaroTrans, a global NVOCC (non-vessel operating common carrier) and ocean freight consolidator, announced a new cooperation with MOLAX LINE, an independent NVO in South Korea, which the companies say will create a stronger, more robust LCL service network in the transpacific trade.
The CaroTrans-MOLAX alliance will offer secure, local service for import and export cargo moving between the U.S. and Northern Asia. CaroTrans has an extensive North American network of 14 branch offices and 24 CFS (container freight stations). In Busan, MOLAX owns and operates a 380,000 sq. foot warehouse and will have a second warehouse of 360,000 sq. feet completed mid-2014.
The comprehensive CaroTrans–MOLAX service network includes direct export services from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, New York and Charleston to Busan. On-forwarding via Busan further extends coverage to North China, a wide-range of west coast ports in Japan, as well as Vladivostok, Russia.
Their import network consists of an array of direct, weekly services from South Korea to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Seattle and Miami. From these gateways, CaroTrans offers express interior point intermodal (IPI) connections to 70 locations throughout the U.S.
CaroTrans will continue to grow its transpacific service network by adding direct, expedited LCL/FCL import and export services to serve market demand. January 2013, CaroTrans added a direct, weekly LCL export service from San Francisco to Tokyo, Japan.

Re: Jennifer Lawrence/Mystique: Oscar Winner Edition - Part 1
I'm glad they have and are focusing on a female villain. The one constant theme throughout anything X-related is that the bad guys aren't completely bad and the good guys aren't completely good. Since the original Singer films reinvented the character, turning her into one of the series' fan favorites, it only makes sense to expand on what we know and see how she came to be who she is. As for comparing the two actresses, you can't. They're playing the same character, but she's at two very different stages of her life. Hopefully, in DoFP, we get to see those stages bridged.

'Green' makeovers of buildings can go a long way in saving energy
As delegates from 194 countries gathered in the South African city of Durban late last month for a United Nations summit on climate change to decide the fate of the Kyoto Protocol on harmful gas emissions, the world's tallest "green" building, Taipei 101, signed its first "green" lease with a tenant. If it was a coincidence, it was a significant one, and proved once again that saving the environment doesn't necessarily mean fighting a political battle or altering the pattern of economic growth.
Taipei 101, as the 101-storey skyscraper in the Taiwanese capital is called, had undergone two years of thorough environmental upgrade before the US Green Building Council gave it a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum award last July in recognition of its highly improved efficiency levels. The building now consumes 30 per cent less energy than earlier, reducing its energy cost by about $700,000 a year. It also uses less water and produces less garbage.
Now, with "green" leases, the owners of Taipei 101 want to take the next step — get tenants, too, to join the green battle and take it forward. The 10-year first lease, signed with KPMG Taiwan, asks the company to adopt its own in-house measures to cut electricity and water consumption, minimise waste, harvest rainwater to water office plants, and use only environment-friendly products to clean its premises.
Since buildings are believed to account for 40 per cent of all energy consumed, a tenth of all water used, 40 per cent of all solid waste generated, and over 20 per cent of all carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted in the world, "green" retrofitting of existing buildings can go a long way in mitigating some of the threats to the environment arising from human activity. Basically, the aim is to improve an existing building's energy efficiency, reduce water consumption, and increase interior comfort levels in terms of natural light, air quality, and noise reduction. In most cases, it involves putting in new HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning) systems, replacing window panels, and redoing facades.
Upfront costs of retrofitting may appear high and put people off, but the example of the Empire State Building in New York serves to dispel doubts. Two and a half years ago, owners of the 1931 Manhattan skyscraper decided to give it a pronounced "green" makeover, as part of an overall renovation exercise, in order to enhance its market value. When the work is completed in 2013, Empire State expects to achieve a 38 per cent reduction in annual energy use, shaving at least $4.4 million off its annual energy bill. At this rate, it is hoped, the $20 million retrofitting cost will be recouped in about four years.
Taipei 101 is only one example of Asia's growing interest in retrofitting as a valuable environmental initiative. Singapore, where greening is a national cult, wants all its buildings, old or new, to get a Green Mark certification – a rating system it introduced in 2006 – and has launched a S$100 million fund to help small- and medium-sized buildings retrofit. Initially, some 1,000 buildings are being asked to replace their cooling systems with more energy-efficient ones and audit the systems every three years. Utility companies will submit energy consumption figures for these buildings to the Building and Construction Authority. The government expects 80 per cent of all buildings in the island nation to be Green Mark-ed by 2030, achieving an annual saving of no less than S$1.8 billion in energy cost.
Japan, the most energy-efficient country in the world, known for its cutting-edge energy-saving technologies, introduced a programme last year to evaluate all buildings in the housing market for environment-friendly features. This, it's argued, would act as a natural incentive for realtors to espouse green practices. Also, under Japan's green labelling system, condominium sellers are obliged to indicate their buildings' energy and environmental performance in all their advertising.
With a huge stock (some 470 billion square feet) of existing buildings, most of which is energy-inefficient, China places a great deal of importance on retrofitting since a green fix identified it as a key R&D area in its 11th five-year plan (2006-2010). A major ongoing project seeks to fix homes in the "cold" to "severely cold" areas of 15 provinces in the north that require a lot of heating. The government believes retrofitting alone could provide a quarter of China's new power needs by 2020.
Beijing's belief in retrofitting is reflected in the renovation of the 50-storey, 28-year-old China Resources Building in Hong Kong's Wan Chai district. The facelift, to cost HK$600 million, began in 2009, involving, among other things, a double-layer glass façade with a glaze that will allow only five per cent of solar heat to penetrate inside. When completed, energy savings will reach 11.4 per cent per year, water consumption will go down by 36 per cent, and carbon emission will be reduced by about 7.5 per cent a year.
In spite of the RBI's rate cut and the Centre's reforms, any recovery will only be half-hearted

Sooners coaches could get new bonus
ARDMORE, Okla. -- Oklahoma's football coaches now have a greater incentive to finish in the top five of the Bowl Championship Series standings.
University regents voted Wednesday to approve amended contracts for Bob Stoops' assistants, giving each one a $25,000 bonus if the Sooners finish in the top five.
No changes were made to the coaches' annual salaries, but the new bonus was added and there was also a change made to how assistants get bonuses if Oklahoma wins the BCS championship. Instead of receiving a flat rate, each assistant coach would receive an extra two months' salary.
The regents also approved a modification to women's basketball coach Sherri Coale's contract that provides her with 20 hours of private plane usage each year. She is signed through the 2016-17 season.

Bulls to deal Chandler to Hornets for Brown, Smith
The Chicago Bulls and New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets on Wednesday reached a verbal agreement on the widely expected trade that will send Bulls center Tyson Chandler to the Hornets for veteran forward P.J. Brown and swingman J.R. Smith.
|Tyson Chandler
Chicago Bulls
NBA front-office sources told ESPN.com that the players involved have been notified that the deal will officially go through July 12, which is the first day NBA teams can officially complete signings and trades after the league announces the salary cap for the 2006-07 season.
The ability to deal away Chandler, who has five years and $54 million left on his contract, was crucial for the Bulls in their pursuit of Ben Wallace. They likely couldn't have offered Wallace as much as they did -- nearly $60 million over four years -- without receiving Brown's much friendlier contract in return.
"It was just a matter of when and where," Chandler told the Chicago Tribune from his California home last night.
The willingness to take on Chandler's contract, meanwhile, represents the third bold move from the traditionally quiet Hornets in the space of a week, after years of criticism endured by Hornets owner George Shinn for his reluctance to spend.
"It's my understanding that the trade is going to happen," said Mark Bartelstein, Brown's agent. "P.J. is very excited. He feels like the Bulls have an opportunity to compete for a championship. He really enjoyed his time with the Hornets, but he has so many fond memories of his days in Miami and contending every year that Chicago is a really good situation for him to get back to."
New Orleans/Oklahoma City commenced its aggressive summer makeover by offering Peja Stojakovic a five-year deal worth more than $60 million to entice the sharpshooting former All-Star to leave the Indiana Pacers. That was Saturday.
On Sunday, Shinn followed the Stojakovic coup by sanctioning a three-year commitment worth more than $15 million to Memphis Grizzlies guard Bobby Jackson.
"It's a great basketball opportunity to play with a bunch of young, up-and-coming guys," Chandler said to the Tribune. "That's the thing I'm excited about. They're moving the team in a direction that fits me well. I can help a team make the playoffs. I'll get a chance to play with a great, young point guard [Chris Paul]."
The venerable Brown, who turns 37 in October, has only one season left on his contract at $8 million. Swapping Brown and the out-of-favor Smith for Chandler means New Orleans/Oklahoma City has committed to well over $120 million in new contracts since free agency began Saturday at 12:01 a.m.
It adds up to the most unexpected outlay ever seen from Shinn, even more unexpected than the big contracts he awarded Baron Davis and Jamal Mashburn in the club's Charlotte days. Those moves were contract extensions. The Hornets have never been known for making offseason splashes such as these.
Yet this deal holds obvious appeal on both sides.
Hornets coach Byron Scott, himself the recipient of a three-year contract extension just before the draft, wants to play an up-tempo game and will inevitably see the more athletic Chandler, at 7-foot-1 and turning 24 in October, as a better fit than Brown alongside Rookie of the Year point guard Chris Paul, Stojakovic and power forward David West.
The trade makes even more sense for the Bulls. They don't want to play two non-scorers together (Chandler and Wallace) and moving out Chandler's expensive contract for Brown's expiring deal makes it much easier to absorb Wallace's deal.
Brown, furthermore, is regarded as one of the best locker-room influences in the league and, along with Wallace, would provide legitimate size ... as well as the veteran know-how lacking in Chicago since the breakup of Michael Jordan's Bulls after their sixth and final championship in 1998.
Smith has at least three players ahead of him in Chicago's swing rotation -- Andres Nocioni, Ben Gordon and Luol Deng -- but the 20-year-old has attracted significant trade interest since falling out of Scott's rotation halfway through the season. Smith, then, figures to be a valuable trade chip for the Bulls if he can't crack coach Scott Skiles' rotation, although league restrictions on trades would make it difficult for Chicago to move him in a package deal until 60 days after this trade is officially consummated.

I ask this because of the threads lately asking if Telltale would make this or that game. Is there any chance the ideas shall be implemented?

Mary Soames, Daughter of Churchill and Chronicler of History, Dies at 91tags: Mary Soames
Mary Soames, the last surviving child of Winston Churchill, lived a storybook life and chronicled it in her own well-received books. After her family announced her death at 91 on May 31 in London, Prime Minister David Cameron called her "an eyewitness to some of the most important moments in our recent history."
There was the idyllic childhood at Chartwell, the family estate, where she tamed fox cubs, raised orphan lambs and played in a brick house built for her by her father, whose hobbies included bricklaying. Guests included Charlie Chaplin, who amused her by impersonating Napoleon, and T. E. Lawrence, better known as Lawrence of Arabia, who dressed up in his princely Arab robes. On the eve of World War II, Noël Coward sang "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" to her family and their guests.
During the war, after overhearing a general advising her father, the prime minister, that England should seek women for undermanned antiaircraft batteries, she enlisted as a private without his knowledge. On the banks of the English Channel, she shot down flying bombs hurtling toward England.
