IVF pioneer Robert Edwards dies
Nobel prizewinner's research led to first test tube babies

zoomLONDON — Robert Edwards, a Nobel prizewinner from Britain whose pioneering in vitro fertilization research led to the first test tube baby and has since brought millions of people into the world, died Wednesday at age 87.
The University of Cambridge, where he was a professor, said Edwards passed away peacefully in his sleep at his home just outside Cambridge.
Together with Dr. Patrick Steptoe, Edwards developed in vitro fertilization, or IVF, which resulted in the birth in 1978 of the world's first test tube baby, Louise Brown. At the time, the two were accused of playing God and interfering with nature.
Since then, more than 4 million babies have been born using the technique, which creates embryos in the laboratory before transferring them into a woman.
"(Edwards) was an extraordinary scientist," said Dr. Peter Braude, emeritus professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Kings College London, who was at Cambridge when Edwards and Steptoe were developing IVF.
"There was such hysteria around the kind of work he was doing," Braude said, noting that Edwards stopped his research for two years after he published details on how he had created embryos in the laboratory. "He wanted to work out what the right thing to do was, whether he should continue or whether he was out on a limb," Braude said.
Braude said that Edwards collected donor eggs from Oldham, where Steptoe worked. Edwards then put them into test tubes which he strapped to his legs to keep them warm before catching the train to Cambridge, where he would attempt to fertilize them in the laboratory.
After Brown was born, Braude recalled a celebration at Cambridge, where scientists toasted Edwards and Steptoe's achievement by drinking champagne out of plastic cups.
Braude said public opinion has evolved considerably since then.
"I think people now understand that (Edwards) only had the best motivation," he said. "There are few biologists that have done something so practical and made a huge difference for the entire world."
In 2010, Edwards was awarded the Nobel prize in medicine for the development of IVF. Steptoe had already passed away; the Nobel prizes are not awarded posthumously. The Roman Catholic Church denounced the award, arguing that human life should only begin through intercourse and not artificially. The Vatican said Edwards "bore a moral responsibility for all subsequent developments in assisted reproduction technology and for all abuses made possible by IVF."
In 2011, Edwards was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II "for services to human reproductive biology."
Other scientists called Edwards a visionary who forever changed the lives of people helped by IVF and the medical community.
"(Edwards') inspirational work in the early 60s led to a breakthrough that has enhanced the lives of millions of people worldwide," said Mike Macnamee, chief executive of the IVF clinic that Edwards and Steptoe co-founded, in a statement. "It was a privilege to work with him and his passing is a great loss to us all."

Christchurch Music
OPINION: VICKI ANDERSON looks at the bullseye on her New Zealand Music Month T-shirt and wonders just who or what the target should be.
It's New Zealand Music Month again. This year we're celebrating the 10th anniversary of it, although it started in 2001. Maths anyone? Maybe I'm missing something. I have mixed feelings about the merry musical month of May. I love discovering good music made by people in my city and country. I like that the month is often just an excuse for mainstream media to bring our musicians to the fore - let's face it, any reason will do. But I have a theory that having Kiwi music rammed down our throats for a month has started to make us a nation of haters. We're a little sick of being told what to do in May, I think.
Besides, where's the quality control? Some New Zealand music is s... I shudder to think who I'm going to have to listen to on TV this month. Who'll be on Good Morning making it a bad morning? Please don't let me be on the Interislander any time this month. That said, if I don't like the music that someone makes, I just don't listen to it. I don't feel the need to start a social networking campaign to crush their souls.
All the while we're ra-ra-raing anyone who strums a guitar this month, the bigger issues go unresolved. For example, just what is happening at NZ On Air? While the funding schemes available are appreciated by those who use them, just when is this government going to get around to chucking a few "funding advisers" and their labelmate buddies off this gliding- on-type gravy train?
They really are taking the mick.
It's well and truly time for new blood. If any organisation needs a shake-up and a good prodding by a group of bureacrats with calculators, NZ On Air is it. There are some great people who work there who are passionate about their jobs, but it is just not working to its brief. The same artists get the funding year after year. Acts who are already established, who have record deals and who can afford to pay their way, get decadent funding.
Why is a government-run agency giving such large funds to artists already backed by record companies?
Of the 56 acts to receive funding in New Zealand on Air's March round, only one (Salmonella Dub) was based in the South Island. That is simply ridiculous. Not meaning to sound "regionalist" or anything (NZ On Air are always accusing me of this) but, by laws of averages alone, there should be more than one. South Islanders pay taxes too.
But hang on a minute, according to the mission statement on NZ On Air's website, they are driven by cultural imperatives and to exclude commercial ones yet, paradoxically, their funding choices are made largely on whether an act is going to be "viable commercially".
Some might say there's a serious breach of guidelines here.
NZ On Air is funded by Arts and Culture (spending about $5.2 million per year) yet they're essentially funding commerce - they specifically target music for commercial radio, no artistic merit considered. Not a big fan of the genre personally, but when was the last time you heard a country song on commercial radio? Shouldn't, then, those monies come from trade and industry sources?
I'd like to ask someone at NZ On Air these questions but NZ On Air no longer take my calls.
At an industry gig late last year, one of the head honchos went to shake my hand as my name was being told to him by a third party. He pulled it away so fast he caused a breeze. "Oh, it's you, you wrote that story about us," he said, turning around rather deliberately, so I was left staring at his blue-suited back.
I didn't feel embarrassed at all. I actually felt kind of proud. Besides, I was worried about shaking his greasy palm anyway.
That "story" questioning the transparency and issuing of funds and grants was published in The Press in 2008. Last May, I felt too weary about the whole saga to even contemplate looking into it again.
But I was looking back over that 2008 story this week and was struck by a number of things. Most notably, that nothing has changed. Well, one thing has changed, but I'll get to that.
Back then, NZ On Air music manager Brendan Smyth kindly explained the selection processes.
"We send all the songs to the music television programmers and get them to tell us which songs they are most likely to play.
"It's no use to us and no use to the band if we fund the video and it never gets played. MTV, C4 and Juice are the main people we ask. Using the video is a means to an end and the end is to get more songs played on the radio. Ultimately, the NZ On Air board makes the final decision."
Entertainer Lindon Puffin was quoted in this same 2008 article about being rejected for funding: "Apparently the problem was that I didn't have a profile in Auckland. The insinuation was that if I'm going to take this seriously, I'll have to move to Auckland."
Fast forward to 2010 and the likeable Puffin now lives in Auckland.
When New Zealand Music Month started, it was to increase airplay, but now the organisation is simply trying to get as much exposure for artists as possible. There's nothing wrong with that, but it should not simply be a matter of getting the requisite number of New Zealand artist miles clocked "on air".
These days people are aware of New Zealand-made music all year round but it is vital that this government doesn't forget that music is not just about radio-play and videos - it is a vital part of our culture and heritage and it needs to be treated with respect.
There's a lot of good things happening and people doing good things in this city. Take, for example, the bunch of youths who put together Tally Ho!, a free Christchurch monthly magazine. This month they are giving away a CD with music by amazing New Zealand artists that I would wager no-one at New Zealand On Air has even heard of. You can get one, if you're lucky, by going to Real Groovy and other likely stockists.
Or, as another example, the group of 14- and 15-year-olds who make up Crimson Metal Dragon, who are releasing their own CD, Dragon Wagon, themselves (nod to track eight, Media Machine). Thanks to people like Julie Wylie and Craig Smith, Christchurch is even leading Australia and New Zealand in the realm of children's music.
It is people like this who make me smile. People like this who deserve New Zealand's support.
Christchurch-based Ladi6 posted this on Facebook this week: "20 shows in 30 days we did it!! Last show supporting the infallible Gil Scott Heron, this entire tour's been mind blowing, and gigs are still coming in thick and fast. Europe rulz x." Christchurch group Bang! Bang! Eche! are in MTV's 25 Best New Bands in the World list, announced this week, and according to the poll, they are leading the voting.
Personally, I'm excited about watching what my favourite Christchurch band, the Transistors, can achieve. They have the ability to do great things on a global scale.
This music month, I suggest you check out or head out and support any one of the below acts (just 25 that popped into my head).
They're unique, hardworking and passionate about their music. Most importantly, they sound like us - they're our New Zealand on ears.
1. Transistors
2. O'Lovely
3. No Aloha
4. The Eastern
5. Sexy Animals
6. Bang! Bang! Eche!
7. Truth

Pittsburgh fails to meet everyone's definition of 'livable'
A handwritten letter from a reader indicated she understood a bit too well my column last week about behind-the-scenes behavior by some city employees. The ending was jarring:
"I have been harassed over 20 years and still get threatened. I remain anonymous because I am older and alone and an easy target. Welcome to life in Pittsburgh."
Another reader left a voice mail: "A lot of Pittsburghers are used to the old norm," he said, adding that he and another black neighbor "had troubles" with city officials in his Lawrenceville neighborhood.
From Donna: "There's a culture of corruption in Allegheny County and in the city of Pittsburgh, and it's good to see someone speak so candidly about it."
There's a theme here: city officials proudly touting Pittsburgh's selection as one of the most livable places in the nation and a destination for conventions. Yet there are residents who are afraid to sign their name to a letter because of potential retribution from some — repeat, some — city employees.
A majority of city residents who do summon the nerve to complain about a city employee may not be threatened or intimidated, but they may be ignored, which can be just as upsetting. Perhaps their complaint didn't qualify as enough of a problem to warrant immediate attention or the money wasn't there to resolve it.
Now let's suppose you've had the good fortune to never be affected by questionable practices by any city employee. How does somebody else's problem affect you?
Not at all, you're thinking. Because by this time next year, we'll have a new mayor and likely a new police chief. Everything will change then, right?
The exploits of former police Chief Nate Harper, along with questions about Mayor Luke Ravenstahl's behavior, should make city officials take a closer look at the way they're doing business going forward, right?
Well, consider the Tribune-Review report on Wednesday that it could cost taxpayers $120,000 to take a closer look at the city's cash management problems, along with tracking down all of the $70,000 from a secret police fund involving Harper.
That's the price we might have to pay to end shady dealings within a department that is supposed to enforce the law. We are at the point where we can't govern ourselves and need an outside consultant to figure out what went wrong.
What about the Munhall man whose car was towed by a valet service that was allowed to do so through a variance granted by our very own police department? He was parked on a public street in Market Square, so how can anyone explain how a private service can cite people for parking in a legitimate spot?
If he hadn't fought it, the Munhall man would be looking at about $200 in fines. But fortunately, a judge found that he wasn't at fault, and the city police are taking a closer look at valet parking services.
Speaking of the police, I got another letter this week, too, from a former zone commander for my neighborhood. She offered a heartfelt apology and said she wished she had known about what we'd been through.
She said she was transferred to another zone commander spot after complaining about a supervisor in the Public Works Department. He, meanwhile, was promoted.

Tenba is introducing additional models in each line of Messenger and Gen 3 backpacks and bags. For Gen-3, a new small size backpack will fit most 15" laptops, plus a D/SLR camera with 2-3 lenses and flash, and still have extra space for a lightweight jacket, umbrella, and lunch. Like the entire Gen-3 collection, the backpack is constructed of Tenba's lightweight, weather-resistant Generation 840 nylon, and features a broad range of both permanent and removable pockets, pouches and organizers. Tenba's popular Messenger bags are now available in a total of 7 colors, with the addition of three new hues -- Plum, Chocolate and Platinum. The Messengers are made of street-tough 1000 denier nylon, and are available in 2 sizes, to fit 15" and 17" laptops. There is also a custom laser-engravable name tag version of the large Messenger bag. For more product or purchase information, visit tenba.com.
Visatec USA has introduced the Powerbox 900 battery solution for powering strobes on location. The Powerbox 900 is a sine wave inverter based battery with a standard Edison connector. This allows you to plug in any single strobe up to 900 watt seconds, or with a standard power strip you can plug in any amount of strobes that add up to 900 watt seconds, such as three Visatec Solo 800B's (300 ws each).
Manfrotto has announced a new line of carbon fiber tripods, dubbed "CX. " The new CX family is highlighted by redesigned locking levers, new leg angle selectors, and re engineered magnesium and aluminum castings. The new ergonomic locking levers are much easier for shooters to operate and thanks to their new design, become a seamless element of all CX tripods. Much like the aluminum 190XPROB, the new CX PRO models feature Manfrotto's innovative Q90° (Quick Center Column System). The Q90° system allows the center column to be rotated to a horizontal position with one simple motion, all without removing the head or disassembling the column itself, making switching between framing and positioning setups easier. Additionally, Manfrotto has redesigned the top plate on 190CXPRO4 and190CXPRO3 tripods. The magnesium top plate on the CX PRO series now incorporates a bubble to help aid in leveling the camera and tripod, and has also been refined for a more attractive look. The redesign of the plate also yields a significant reduction in weight. In order to reach high-quality standards and high levels of performance, rigidity and lightness, the new Manfrotto CX tubes are made of 100 percent carbon fiber. When it comes to the use of composite materials-- especially carbon fiber -- in the manufacture of photographic supports, the end result can vary and ultimately depends on the production process and the ratio of carbon fiber material to epoxy present in the tubes. For its CX carbon fiber tripods, Manfrotto utilized nothing other than 100 percent carbon fiber and employed pultrusion, pull winding technology to manufacture the tubes. Pultrusion is a production process that allows for the manufacture of carbon fiber tubes that excel in both flexion resistance and torsion rigidity; features that matter most for camera support applications. The 190CXPRO4 and 190CXPRO3 feature all carbon fiber tubes, including a tri-faceted center column, while the simpler CX3 version features carbon fiber tubes paired with an aluminum center column and aluminum top plate.

Container City: Shipping containers, indispensable tool of the globalized consumer economy, reflect the skyline in Singapore, one of the world's busiest ports.
Topics: Science Fiction and Fantasy, Fiction, Books, Entertainment News
In a recent essay in the Wall Street Journal, novelist and critic Lev Grossman used the release of George R. R. Martin's newest, long-awaited sword and sorcery novel as a hook upon which to hang a spirited defense of fantasy literature in general. Grossman first claimed that many average readers and cultural arbiters disrespected fantasy, sneerily regarding it as fit only for children, or child-minded adults. (The lament echoes Woody Allen's famous complaint to Newsweek in 1978: "When you do comedy you're not sitting at the grown-ups' table, you're sitting at the children's table.")
To the contrary, Grossman claimed, fantasy was the Ur-literature of our species; had produced many canonical works of genius; was fully capable of dealing with vital issues in a mature and complex fashion; and continued to inspire contemporary works marked by supreme craft, beauty and importance.
These verbal pugilistics on behalf of fantasy's honor do seem a bit like a Civil War reenactment. That particular battle has long ago been fought and decided, in fantasy's favor. We won. Although mimetic fiction still occupies a few catbird seats, such as the Booker Prize and the Times Literary Supplement and a few stodgy halls of academe, the sheer volume of fantastika — to employ ace critic John Clute's umbrella term for science fiction, fantasy, horror, surrealism, magical realism and any hybrid thereof — currently filling our cinemas and best-seller lists and e-readers is an incontrovertible measure of fantastika's popularity. When Joyce Carol Oates is extolling H. P. Lovecraft in the New York Review of Books, it seems a bit greedy and peevish and retrogressive to claim, "We can't get no respect."
But hidden in Grossman's essay is a serious issue still unsettled in the minds of many, believers and non-believers alike. Large-scale acceptance of fantasy does not necessarily reflect a high quality of product. This particular ocean of story might very well be nothing more than the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a Sargasso of shoddy plastic cultural flotsam.
Can a fantastical novel also exhibit all the virtues of the best mimetic fiction? Grossman cites several books that, he feels, do. I could adduce others he obviously omits for lack of space, such as Mark Helprin's "Winter's Tale", John Crowley's "Little, Big" and Mervyn Peake's "Gormenghast" trilogy. But we need not look so far afield, given that we have Grossman's own new novel "The Magician King" to hand, a sequel to his bestseller "The Magicians." Chances are good we can count on it to aspire to the heights Grossman preaches, and to make his case. Certainly the first entry in his series — and what else labels a book "popular fiction" more definitively than being part of a series? — did indeed achieve a very respectable hieros gamos of naturalism and the fantastic.
Quentin Coldwater is a brainy, disaffected 17-year-old whose life is overturned one day when he is accepted into the mysterious Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, situated behind cloaking barriers somewhere in upstate New York. Having long dwelled mentally in daydreams inspired by a set of classic YA novels about a magical land named Fillory (think Lewis' "Narnia" tales), Quentin is primed to accept this magical destiny. But even in the midst of the miraculous, he soon finds that he cannot avoid all the adolescent tribulations that are the common lot of all humans, magicians or mundanes. Affairs of status and of the heart and soul bedevil him. After four tumultuous years he graduates and lands in New York City, but finds a world made easy by magic to be one of aimless hedonism. When one of his peers announces that Fillory is real and he's found a way there, Quentin naturally signs up for the expedition. But that secondary creation will prove as dangerous and unsatisfying as Earth, and the group's sojourn turns into a battle with tragic consequences. The aftermath leaves Quentin stranded among the mundanes, an exile from which he is finally released in the closing pages of "The Magicians."
Grossman's hybrid approach is worth pausing over. Beyond its sorcerous concerns, "The Magicians" delivered a sterling coming-of-age tale. It's not "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man," but what else other than Joyce's original is? Quentin and his peers are utterly credible depictions of ambitious, confused, overconfident, talented, wary youngsters. They come in all flavors, from effete Eliot to domineering Janet to wise and shy yet powerful Alice. Their whole ménage resembles something out of Jay McInerney or Bret Easton Ellis, Douglas Coupland or Donna Tartt:
Then he would take off his clothes, which reeked of cigarette smoke, like a toad shedding its skin, and Alice would stir sleepily in the sheets and sit up, the white sheet slipping down off her heavy breasts. She would lean against him, their backs against the cool white wooden curl of their sleigh bed, not speaking, and they would watch as dawn came up, and a garbage truck moved haltingly down the block, its pneumatic biceps gleaming as it greedily consumed whatever its overalled attendants flung into it, ingesting what the city had expectorated. And Quentin would feel a lofty pity for the garbagemen, and for all straights and civilians. He wondered what they could possibly have in their uncharmed lives that made them think they were worth living.
The fantastical elements of the story, while familiar, are fervently embraced, fully fleshed out, and wittily arrayed. His treatment of the unreal, of course, is very "meta" or recursive. Characters react to disruptions in consensus reality by referencing "The Lord of the Rings," for instance. This kind of knowingness on the part of the protagonists can be dangerous, throwing the reader out of engagement with the story. But Grossman carries it off.
Discussion of the literary antecedents for a school for magicians is well-trodden territory after Rowling's books. Similarly, the notion of mortals entering a world out of the pages of literature goes back at least as far as de Camp & Pratt's Harold Shea stories from the 1940s and has received a more recent workout in Michael Ende's "The Neverending Story." Oddly enough, an ongoing graphic novel on the same theme, "The Unwritten," by Mike Carey and Peter Gross, commenced simultaneously with "The Magicians." And Christopher Plover, author of the Fillory saga, calls to mind Fellowes Kraft from John Crowley's "Aegypt" sequence.
But Grossman's evocation of magic and its true nature has an appealing vivacity and muscular strangeness to it. The scene where Quentin and friends are transformed to geese bears the oddball authenticity of George MacDonald. Generally, Grossman's magicians remind me of those in Jack Vance's "Dying Earth" books: aloof, weird, competitive, posthuman and harsh, having paid a high price for their powers. Vance's perfect short story "Green Magic" seems a likely additional influence.
If the ratio between naturalism and fantastika was 50-50 in "The Magicians," "The Magician King" features a skewing of those proportions, in favor of fantasy. The four-book division of the novel allots but one book to Earthly doings, when Quentin and Julia are stranded back "home." It almost seems as if Grossman is saying, "I can lift anchor and cast off for wilder shores, now that I've shown you my ship's timbers are sound." The storytelling and characterization remain sharp, even as the story's reach expands.
The new book opens two years beyond the closure of the prior one. Quentin, Julia, Eliot and Janet have been ruling in Fillory and leading a magical, albeit bland and pampered life. In this pastorale, however, Julia is an enigmatic element of darkness. She was Quentin's high-school crush, last seen as a desperate magician wannabe, who came up in the mystical hierarchy not through Brakebills but through the underground system of "hedge magic." She seems to harbor a dark secret, which we will learn about in separate chapters devoted to her back story. At first, her past seems tangential to the main plot, almost gratuitous biography. But Grossman cleverly dovetails both at the climax.
The new adventures of Quentin Coldwater contain a wealth of surprises: shocking magic, surreal sights (I loved the notion of a conventional land train porpoising through the sea), triumphs and reversals, new venues, new characters. (The outstanding one is the charming Aussie mage Poppy, a paradoxically rational witch with a thing for dragons.) To detail them would be to ruin readerly enjoyment, and so I won't. Suffice it to say that vast cosmic changes are afoot, in Fillory and even on Earth, propelling Quentin and company on the majestic quest he longs for, but leaving him at risk of losing all he belatedly realizes he cherishes.
While the first book read like Salinger crossed with Dunsany — "The Catcher in the Rye Meets the King of Elfland's Daughter," anyone? — the new novel resembles nothing so much as two classic ancestors: Robert Heinlein's "Glory Road" and William Goldman's "The Princess Bride." There's even a jaunty master swordsman here named Bingle, who will remind you of "Bride's" Inigo Montoya. Grossman keeps up the fanboy knowingness: "The Deeper Magic always seemed to come up when Ember [the Ram God of Fillory] didn't feel like doing something, or needed to close a plot hole." But it never reaches the tipping point of breaking the reader's engagement with the suspenseful wonder.
Although this book's MacGuffin — saving the universe for magic — won't necessarily resonate with those who loved best the boarding school parts of "The Magicians," Grossman still manages to deliver themes and situations that resonate with eternal inner moral conundrums we've all experienced, even if we have not found ourselves harrowing Hell, as Quentin (wounded in his side like Christ, no less) has to do at one point.
Penny, one of Quentin's classmates, resurfaces at a certain instance to disclose some truths. "In the Order, we call it 'inverse profundity …' The deeper you go into the cosmic mysteries, the less interesting everything gets." Quentin doesn't quite buy this revelation: Penny's always been a bit of a twit. And I think neither does Grossman. He's tweaking us, daring us to be callous, blinkered, stockbroker fools, to disbelieve in magic and render our own unique lives mundane. Rather, if there is any truth at all to Penny's observation, it might be turned inside out and inverted by one of Brakebill's spells, until it approaches the words of David Ben-Gurion: "Anyone who doesn't believe in miracles is not a realist."

Just yesterday I used Uber again to attend a meeting at a place with no parking. Uber has really made my life so much more convenient.
When Uber started here in Manila, you could enter a code and get P500 free credits to try the service for free. When I discovered Uber, codes would yield P300 free credits. Now it's down to P200. Well, I just got an e-mail from Uber Manila and come March 1, it's going to go down to just P100.
If you still have not tried Uber, download it now and get your P200 free credit by clicking on the Uber logo on the top lefthand corner of the app. You'll pull up the menu. Click on Promotions and enter my promo code yetbk to instantly get P200 free credit you can use to ride. If you look at my Uber receipt (first photo above), you'll see that one 15-minute 3km ride costs less than P90 so yes, the P200 free credit will definitely come in handy. By March 1, it's going to go down to P100 so better get P200 now!
My hubby and I have actually used Uber with our kids. It's that safe -- we would actually ride with our children. Uber is a great alternative to hiring a driver on a permanent basis especially if you don't need one to drive you around every single day.
This post is brought to you by me. Yes, me. Lol, I'm not being compensated by Uber in any way... the service is just super useful to me so I'd like to help keep it alive by spreading the word.

Barbie's Stila Makeup Line to Launch This Spring
Beauty Byte: Barbie Gets Dolled Up With Stila
Back in the 80's Barbie had a line of kiddie cosmetics I remember quite well. Then, in 2007, MAC released a Barbie-themed makeup collection. And now? The fashion doll is about to dabble in the cosmetics realm again with a recently announced collaboration with Stila.
According to WWD, the limited-edition collection will launch next month at Sephora stores (including international locations and online) and Sephora's Fifth Avenue store in New York. Just in time to celebrate the fashion doll's 50th birthday, the fun and flirty collection will include four "Decades of Beauty" cans ($40): Ponytail Doll, which commemorates the first Barbie in 1959; Malibu Barbie, from 1971; Foxy Doll, in honor of the first African-American doll released in 1980; and Jewel Doll, from 2000.
Also in the works . . . those nifty talking palettes from Stila — Barbie style, of course — a Barbie fashion show featuring Stila products at New York Fashion Week next month, and a Barbie beauty program/expanded collection for Fall 2009. Way to keep it going for half a century, Miss Barbie.

Public-private profits in Oak Creek
Oak Creek is in line to get 35 percent of the profits from land sales in Wispark LLC's Drexel Town Square and OakView Business Park developments under an agreement approved Aug. 5.
The promise of profits for Oak Creek is part of the agreement between the city and Wispark, the development arm of We Energies, Milwaukee, that is developing the two massive projects. Oak Creek has agreed to spend a combined $30 million in infrastructure for the two projects, both on South Howell Avenue.
The city also contributed $2 million to the purchase price of the Drexel Town Square development site, said city administrator Gerald Peterson. The city will be collecting a 6 percent interest rate on that money from Wispark until it is repaid, he said.
Oak Creek and Wispark also set the terms to share the profits of both Drexel Town Square and OakView. Wispark will collect all profits from land sales in Drexel and OakView until its shareholders recover their initial investment plus a 20 percent return, Peterson said. At that point, 35 percent of the profits will go to the city, he said.
Reporter Sean Ryan covers commercial and residential real estate for the Milwaukee Business Journal and through the Real Estate Roundup blog on the website. He also covers construction, highways and public transit.
