Union Minister for Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation Kumari Selja Thursday said the share of the private sector in infrastructure development is expected to go up to 50 percent of the total outlay during the 12th Five Year Plan (FYP) period. "The total outlay for infrastructure is pegged at 1,025 billion US dollars for the 12th FYP - an increase of 100% over the previous plan. Private participation, which was 30 per cent in the last plan period, will rise to 50 percent of the total outlay," the minister said, stressing that the public-private partnership mode was the only solution for the problems of infrastructure.

** GIREM recommends waste-to-energy plants in each Assembly segment *** As urban India grapples with the challenge of handling municipal solid waste, GIREM (Global Initiative for Restructuring Environment and Management), an industry body, has come out with an exhaustive report which recommends setting up of waste-to-energy plants at the Assembly constituency level. According to a press release from GIREM, the report 'Managing Solid Waste at the Assembly Constituency Level', underscores the benefits of WTE methods, particularly in minimising the use of landfills; generating energy from waste; cutting down on huge transportation bills; and involving the community at the Assembly level. The report has been submitted to various State Governments. The Chairman of GIREM, Sankey Prasad, said, "The amount of solid waste generated in India is unimaginable and only technology can help resolve the problem as landfill as a solution has major limitations. GIREM recommends safe and green technologies, which are implementable across the country. Combined waste incineration methods are time-tested in developed countries and the report has cited successful models." The President of GIREM, Shyam Sundar S. Pani, says, "Public hygiene in India has been compromised. It is one of the most neglected areas of urban development and we are sitting on a garbage bomb which is ticking away. Considering the gravity of the situation, GIREM's study points out how the problem can be resolved at the Assembly level and also make the legislator accountable for cleanliness and upkeep of his or her constituency. The waste-to-energy plants are safe and environment-friendly and above all have the potential to supply energy to the grid."
Pawan Singh The government appointed the Shunglu Committee to study the finances of power distribution entities (discoms). While the committee analysed the failure of the first privatisation experiment in Orissa, it appreciated the benefits of privatisation in Delhi and the franchisee model in Bhiwandi and elsewhere. It errs in favouring the franchisee model over public private partnership (PPP). The committee's first ground is that the competitive process in case of PPP is restrictive: it allows only power sector players to bid. However, completely open qualifying criteria might be inappropriate, leading to bids from incapable and non-serious contenders. Another factor weighing with the Shunglu Committee is that the capex of franchisee is audited in the accounts of the company and approved by the regulator. But this applies to PPP as well. Moreover, the PPP model has government representatives as on the board of discoms who can pre-audit the capex of discoms, whereas post-audit is the only resort with franchisees. The Committee considers the loan Rs 3,452 crore provided by the Delhi government to Transco as financial support and assumes that such financial support to be an integral part of a PPP model. Actually, this money was used to part-finance power purchase for the initial five years, after which the discom bore the full power purchase responsibility. In contrast, in the case of franchisee, the risk and responsibility of power purchase remains with the state. From a public policy angle, this puts huge drain on the state exchequer. Power purchase accounts for nearly 75 to 80% of distribution cost. The Shunglu Committee observes that the franchisee would not frequently seek tariff revision whereas the PPP will, annually. This is correct but it happens because PPP has to do power purchase which the franchise does not do. The state power company will have to seek periodic hikes. The franchisee business model is based only on loss reduction. It may do little to work on systems improvement or grid strengthening. This may impair the quality and delivery of power supplied to consumers. The Shunglu Committee has said that it is difficult to put in place a valuation in a PPP model. The Delhi Vidyut Board (DVB) case would make a worthwhile study in this regard. In DVB, assets had depreciated and become obsolete, making it hard to find buyers. Book value method, asset valuation model, or equity valuation method would not have worked. In Delhi, the revenue streams of the discoms were capitalised to arrive at their valuation. Each discom was valued by means of modelling based on certain assumptions about tariff increases and targeted efficiency improvements. The Delhi reforms were the first to adopt the principle of AT&C loss (the difference between energy input and units of energy for which payment is actually realised) as the measure of commercial efficiency, displacing the conventional measure of T&D loss or unaccounted energy (the difference between energy input and energy billed). This led to greater investor confidence. The uniqueness of Delhi's power sector reforms lies in the fact that disinvestment was done on efficiency promotion, rather than to generate money from the asset sale. In the PPP model, the bidders were to quote on loss reduction targets for electricity over a five-year period. The uniqueness of the scheme lay in the fact that for every 1% reduction in loss, the system generated Rs 100 crore of revenue, and consequent saving to the exchequer.
In a last ditch effort to attract private sector investment in schools and skill development, the Planning Commission on Tuesday held a meeting with top industry leaders presenting them with its Public Private Partnership model for these sectors. Even though the private sectorshowed interest in the government's new PPP mode, government officials said they did not make any assurance on investments. Planning Commission deputy chairperson Montek Singh Ahluwalia told the private sector that the government will be launching two schemes shortly for seeking PPP in presence of HRD minister Kapil Sibal and labour minister Mallikarjuna Kharge. One would be HRD ministry's scheme for setting up 2,500 model schools and the other would be labour ministry's proposal to set up 3,000 Industrial Training Institutes in backward regions of India. "The initiative in the first phase would involve setting up of 2,500 model schools to create capacity for quality education to about 40 lakh children," the plan panel said, in a presentation to the industry leaders.
*** The deputy chairman of the Planning Commission, in an interview, spoke about the challenges of pushing public health reforms *** New Delhi: India is likely to finalize a draft Plan document next week to introduce universal health coverage in India. Montek Singh Ahluwalia, deputy chairman of the Planning Commission, spoke in an interview about the challenges of pushing public health reforms with limited resources at hand. Edited excerpts: Will the government be able to push through sweeping healthcare reforms? I don't think the short-term problems of the economy should have any effect on the forward movement of health reforms. Steps are being taken to revive the economy and I am sure we will succeed. Meanwhile, we should keep our eyes on the medium term objective of developing a viable strategy for health sector reforms. One thing is clear, we have to spend more money on public health facilities and we will. But money is not the only issue. We also have to use it well, and that means restructuring and reform of the public health system and also better regulation of health in general. However, health is a state subject and reforms will only take place depending on what the state governments want. Our job is to sensitize them and also support them in the 12th plan (2012-17). We do plan to do that. Will you be able to achieve the spending target of 2.5% of GDP on healthcare?
We had said in the approach to the 12th plan that we should aim at that figure by the end of the 12th plan. But remember, the figure refers to plan and non-plan expenditure of the Centre and the states. The Planning Commission only decides central plan expenditure. We discuss state plan expenditure but it is the states that decide, and non-plan expenditure, which is much larger than plan expenditure, is entirely outside our ambit. However, as an aspirational target, this is what the Centre and the states together should aim at. What concerns you the most about India's health sector?
Unlike other sectors, this is not a sector which can be left to market forces, even for those who have money. This is because information asymmetry is very high and incentives are not aligned. Commercial health service providers do not have an incentive to take preventive steps—they make money if a patient goes for high end treatment, not if he or she takes preventive steps to avoid it. Lack of regulation is a major problem and there is a great deal of evidence of irrational prescriptions, and also substandard facilities. Second, we have a very large population which simply cannot afford private care, so there has to be a large expansion in public sector health. At least 80% of the population needs to have access to good healthcare funding by the public sector. This could be through direct provision of services by public facilities, as is inevitably needed in rural areas. It could involve some PPP (public-private partnership) as some state governments are doing. It could be through a health insurance system such as Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (a government-run national health insurance scheme for the poor), where the government pays the premium. I am sure states will make different choices and we should give them flexibility. Third, trained personnel are as important as money and we have huge shortages of doctors as well as nurses. Unless we expand supply, not much can be done by simply building facilities. The 12th five-year plan attempts to put together a strategy which should lead to large scale expansion of public health sector in rural and urban slum areas. But it will take time.

An Interview with Zomburai
1. When did you first come up with the idea for your Everyday Abnormal?
Zomburai: I've had ideas that would end up a part of EvAb for years, and I think the first seeds of it were planted when I read Marvels by Alex Ross and Kurt Busiek. I'm really, really fascinated by the idea that encountering the superhuman or the paranormal or just things that don't belong has an effect on you, and is something that changes your character. The versions of the story that nobody ever saw were the versions that never really had that as a theme, and I've really grown to love seeing a character's worldview change in these deep, profound ways as entertaining as seeing a brain monster.
2. What does your workspace look like (feel free to attach a photo if you'd like)? If you can add anything to it, what would it be?
Zomburai: The workspace is a disaster and will not be seen by my fellow Underdogs. But I like it that way. I'll tell you the thing it really needs though: an actual, meant-for-work desk.
3. What's your favorite time-sucking activity?
Zomburai: Dungeons & Dragons. When I don't have a campaign going, reading comics. In winter, Seahawks football. I used to be a pretty dedicated video gamer, but I ended up having to make a choice whether the comic could survive regular week-long binges getting through the latest game, and I decided it could not, so I'm very picky about what games I get into now.
4 . Lord of the Rings or Star Wars?
Zomburai: Why would you make me choose? That's like a Sophie's choice of geekery.
If I had to choose one, it would be Lord of the Rings. There's a lot of delectable moral ambiguity that I love in LotR, where you've got people doing horrifically evil or stupid things for noble reasons and evil people show the possibility of redemption. It doesn't really get credit for being a challenging work, but it is.
5. If you were writing a clever interview question for the next spotlight, what would it be? Feel free to answer this question for yourself if you'd like!
Zomburai: "What's your spirit animal? Mine's Rocket Raccoon."
6. Who is your biggest inspiration as an author? Who is your biggest inspiration as an artist?
Zomburai: As a writer, Christopher Priest (of Black Panther and The Crew). As an artist, Alex Maleev (of Daredevil and Scarlet).
7. Is there any recurring part of your comic you regret including because it's a pain to draw?
Zomburai: I feel like you're trying to get me to say Uche's jacket, because everybody thinks Uche's jacket would be horrible to draw all the time! But no, I don't actually regret Uche's jacket. It's such a great design and it makes Uche look unique while still looking plausible. Actually, I more regret making the Corridor the way I did. A cityscape that goes on to infinity in all directions is a great idea that I'm still in love with, but every time I have to draw an establishing shot of it it ends up being a pain in my … life.
8. Tell us something about one of your characters that nobody else know.
Zomburai: Rhine's been established as the "healing spell" guy. This is only a fraction of his power. It's only a taste of what he can actually do. The actual theme of his abilities is something much more striking and he's going to prove to be capable of some of the most amazing feats in the story as time goes on. Not bad for the kid that got removed as the point-of-view character for the series.
9. Has there ever been a book/movie/tv show/other comic/etc that you saw and thought, "I wish I had written that?" Tell us about it!
Zomburai: Avatar: The Last Airbender for quality reasons. It has everything that I like in series and does it better than almost anything else, and is truly all-ages in the best sense of the word. Scott Pilgrim (the comic specifically) for personal reasons. I identify with that comic so much. So damn much.
10. If you could incorporate one character from another comic (be it printed or web), who would that be? Would they have difficulty adjusting to the universe of your comic?
Zomburai: I've always wished I could do something with Judas Traveller, who was a villain in some terrible, terrible Spider-Man comics in the early-to-late 90s. The character was conceived as a reality-warper who was obsessed with mentally pulling people apart in order to figure out "the nature of Evil." I think he'd actually fit better in EverydayAbnormal than he did in the Spider-Man comics!
Also, I really wish I'd come up with the character of Pepper from Monster Soup before its author TheGhost did, but then, I'm a sucker for characters so impulsive they get themselves into trouble. And werewolves.
11. Is the use of grayscale in your comic stylistic or a time-saving strategy?
Zomburai: It started out as a time-saver, because damn I am not as fast an artist as I want to be, but I've tried to work to B&W's strengths and very carefully add color to make it work stylistically. I think it's in a pretty good place right now, though I've never completely taken the idea of going to full color off the table.
12. What's next for Everyday Abnormal?
Zomburai: Oh, man, crazy stuff.
So the last couple of chapters have focused on small-town drama ("Drowning in the Wake"), whimsical fantasy ("Acting Out") and romantic comedy ("Personal Spaces"). "Personal Spaces" is almost done, and then there's going to be the usual between-chapter break, and then we begin Chapter 8: "Long Way Down." That's a crime story that goes back to the horror of the first couple of chapters and has some crazy, overt magic that's been missing. It digs into Nick Malphas's past, and it is not pleasant. It's going to change how readers see Nick from here on in and really impact the relationship between him and Lilith. The hiatus is going to see me get a new project up and running and keep trying to make the Patreon bonuses even better.
I'm going to be so busy over the next couple of months, but it's going to be awesome.

I'm 8 1/2 weeks pregnant and have had severe nausea since week 5. I have prescriptions for Phenergan and Zofran. Both have worked only so-so, although I have the minimal dosages.
Last night, I tried 25 mg B6 with 1/2 Unisom tab. I had virtually no night nausea- something the prescriptions didn't even do for me. Plus, I slept great.
I'd like to continue the B6/Unisom combination, but I am concerned about developing a dependency on the Unisom. Do you have any information regarding Unisom dependency/addiction?
Unisom is a sedating antihistamine,that is why
you slept so well. Consult your doctor about the combination of B6/Unisom. To our knowledge there should be no risk of addiction.

Amicus Delays U.S. Approval Filing for Fabry Disease Drug
CRANBURY, NJ ( TheStreet) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration refused a request from Amicus Therapeutics (FOLD - Get Report) to amend the statistical plan for a failed phase III study of its experimental Fabry disease drug Amigal. As a result, Amicus is delaying the U.S. approval filing for Amigal until late 2014 or early 2015 -- after data from another phase III study is completed.
Amicus shares fell 22% to $2.50 in early Monday trading.
Last December, Amicus announced disappointing six-month results from a phase III study of Amigal in patients with Fabry disease. Forty-one percent of Amigal patients were counted as responders (meaning they had a 50% decrease in GL3 in their kidneys. By comparison, 28% of placebo patients were responded. The response trend clearly favored Amigal but the difference was not statistically significant.
Amicus met with FDA hoping to convince regulators to allow changes to the study to review Amigal's efficacy based on longer-term (12 months) response rates, as well as in certain subgroups of patients with higher baseline levels of GL3.
On Monday, Amicus said FDA agreed to the changes in the study but regulator also insisted that from a regulatory standpoint, the study would still be considered a failure. This prevents Amicus and partner GlaxoSmithKline (GSK - Get Report) from seeking FDA approval until more Amigal data is compiled. The two companies are conducting a second phase III study in which Fabry patients are switched from a currently approved therapy to Amigal. Results from this study are expected in the first half of 2014. Even if the study is positive, Amicus cautioned that a U.S. filing won't be completed until another meeting is held with FDA in the second half of 2014. Twelve-month data from the first phase III study are expected in the fourth quarter of this year. Amicus has enough cash on hand to continue operations into the second half of 2014. -- Reported by Adam Feuerstein in Boston. Follow @AdamFeuersteinCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

Two men hurt in rollover accident
Men from Grey Eagle and Belgrade, Minn. were hurt in a one-vehicle rollover accident on Todd County Road 103 near the intersection with Chippewa Road.
On Friday, Feb. 26, Sheldon Carrier, 48, of Grey Eagle, and John Holtbert, 28, of Belgrade, were on 103 and failed to make a curve. The Chevy Cavalier rolled and both men were taken by Long Prairie Ambulance to Long Prairie Hospital. Holtberg was treated and released, while Carrier was treated overnight.

Window boxes can be in a state of constant change with new plants rotating in all the time. These urban gardeners have added some cheerful cyclamen (a fairly hardy blossom) to their winter ivy for a breath of early spring.
Pinecones, evergreens, and winterberries are tucked into a box planted with boxwood bushes and ivy plants, giving it a lush look during a time when it is hard to grow leafy greens.
A white painted window box is a country-chic addition to a home's exterior, even if you live in the city. Here a winter planting of cabbages keeps the box green until it's time to plant warm-weather annuals.
The Washington Square Park Hotel in New York CIty has a bright idea for winter boxes: dramatic branches. A mix of natural and white-painted branches from the craft store are displayed.
A winter planter doesn't need to be planted. Here a wire-frame window box is filled with a mix of cut evergreens, holly branches and decorative grapevine balls for a temporary display.
Small trees are a great way to make an interesting display in a window box, offering welcome privacy. Here these evergreens are surrounded by trailing ivy.
Don't want to leave your boxes bare, but can't be bothered with complicated displays? Follow the lead of this urban gardener and push a few evergreen branches into the dirt. They'll look "green" even after the pine needles have dried out.

Engel's Rankings Update: Heeeeere's Carson
Updated: November 4, 2007, 9:52 AM ET
Scott Engel | ESPN.com
Here are my revised lineup rankings for Week 9. All changes are official as of Sunday, November 4, at 9 a.m. ET and reflect all the latest injury and lineup news, plus any other recent trends.
MOVING: Palmer should have one of his best games of the season against Buffalo; only Brady is a better start this week. Don't worry about Manning against the Pats. Big-time players show up in big-time games. Derek Anderson will have a very good game as long as the Browns can handle Seattle's blitzes. McCown takes over at quarterback for the Raiders, but you should use him only if you are absolutely desperate. Warner remains a risky option even though he is set to start again.

5 Profitable Dividends Apparel Stocks With Encouraging Inventory Trends
When a business is doing particularly well in comparison to their industry competitors investors want to find out why.
To identify some particularly profitable firms in the apparel stock sector and analyze the underlying causes we searched for names with the following characteristics:
1. We began with names in the apparel sector paying dividend yields above 1%. Since company profits fund the dividend, we then screened for those with strong sources of profitability. To do this we ran the DuPont analysis.
DuPont analyzes return on equity (net income/equity) profitability by breaking ROE up into three components:
ROE = (Net Profit/Equity)= (Net profit/Sales)*(Sales/Assets)*(Assets/Equity)
= (Net Profit margin)*(Asset turnover)*(Leverage ratio) It therefore focuses on companies with the following positive characteristics: Increasing ROE along with, •Decreasing leverage, (i.e. decreasing Asset/Equity ratio)
•Improving asset use efficiency (i.e. increasing Sales/Assets ratio) and improving net profit margin (i.e. increasing Net Income/Sales ratio) Companies with all of these characteristics are experiencing increasing profits due to operations and not to increased use of financial leverage. 2. After checking for profitability, we explore a reason they could be doing better. We screened for those stocks with encouraging sales trends and higher growth in revenue than inventory year-over-year, as well as inventory comprising a smaller portion of current assets over the same time period. To understand why these trends are positive, think why the opposite trends would be negative. If a company sees higher growth in inventory than revenue, it may indicate that the company is having trouble selling its inventory. This is an especially valuable indicator for apparel stocks, whose inventory can quickly become dated. Business Section: Investing Ideas Below is the list of stocks from the above-mentioned ideas. All apparel firms have market caps over $50 million and are trading at over $1 per share. We also focused on stocks paying out dividend yields above 1%. We compared the profitability of the names in the list with their competitors in the industry. Then we analyzed their inventory actions for positive trends to give light to why they might be doing so well.

So this weekend was quite eventful. Saturday marked the second anniversary of Takai and I's wedding, so to celebrate, I whisked her off to the Big Apple to see her favorite show, Evita. I'll let her explain that, because I'm pretty sure she's still coming down from the shock. ^_^ Granted, it was cold and wet the whole time we were there, and she had a little trouble folding into city buses and subway cars, but we had a very exciting time. We even met up with our favorite pork-based deviant, and he got to show us around a little of the city before he had to run off to meet up with some friends of his. It was an incredible trip, but right now I'm just happy to be home again.
C-Quel, thank you from both of us for meeting us, showing us around, and just being awesome. I hope you had as much fun meeting us as we did meeting you!
To my wife Takai: I know I've said this a dozen times this weekend, and on Facebook, and you're probably tired of hearing it, but I'm going to say it once more... Thank you for sharing your life with me. You bring me so much joy, and I'm so fortunate to have someone as caring and wonderful and accepting as you in my life. Behind every artistic action of mine, behind every line and color, you inspire and motivate me, and without you, I would accomplish nothing. Thank you for understanding and encouraging me, and for just being you. I love you!

Happy Monday! So, I am currently on the 21 Day Fix (Day 8) and I have to say I feel so refreshed and energized after this weekend. Normally after a weekend of indulging (food, alcohol, sweets, etc.) I feel like Monday is time to to reset and get back on track for the week. However, I had a very low key weekend full of healthy food and exercise and I am feeling better than ever! I can't wait to see what the next 13 days have in store!
This outfit was perfect for a low key weekend. It was the North Beach Festival in San Francisco and the world cup. I planned to wear these shorts as I've had them for a while and it was such a nice day. I felt a little casual so I dressed them up with a blazer and my amazingly comfortable Bearpaw wedges.

OP-ED | 'Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics'
by Sarah Darer Littman | October 3, 2014 9:00am
I had a very different column planned. In the last week, two polls were released on education, one by Benenson Strategy Group for the charter advocacy group ConnCAN, and another by Hartstad Strategic Research on behalf of a new 527 advocacy group, Democrats for Public Education. I'd planned to compare them because they told such different stories.
ConnCAN's headline was that "Connecticut voters believe there are urgent problems in the public schools," and further, claimed "Voters see the status quo as a problem and are looking for the pace of reform to quicken," and "Connecticut voters are broadly supportive of the elements of reform."
Meanwhile, the Democrats for Public Education declared: "Those Slamming Public Ed Out-of-Step With Parents & Voters," and "overall 82 percent of those voters able to rate their local teachers believe them to be excellent, very good, or good."
"I've seen an awful lot of polling through the years, and any politician or elected official would love to have the favorability ratings enjoyed by local public schools and teachers in this survey," said DPE President Steve Rosenthal. "The facts are on our side, and we are beyond pleased with these findings."

To clarify, Spring scarves differ from Fall scarves in that they're lightweight, usually made of silk, cotton, or rayon. They can be solid or print, but the bottom line is, they must add pizzazz to your look. Everything from pastels to bright hues, dots to florals qualify. I'm currently digging tie-dye and pastels.

Good Sit Down Dessert Spot for Ladies' Date
- 7
- Follow
To celebrate my daughter's 2nd bday, I was hoping to take her grandma, two aunts and female cousin out for coffee and dessert somewhere good and reasonably special. Lady M appealed but the space seems too small and uppity for a small child and larger group. Any other ideas? I don't want to get stuck doing a $40pp afternoon tea both because of cost and because I'm not sure my daughter will sit that long. And Chickilious is great but presents similar restraints. Thanks!
By no means cheap, but a really lovely atmosphere: Cafe Sabarsky in the Neue Galerie, for a pre-war Austrian/German konditerei vibe: http://www.menupages.com/restaurants/...
Coffee and an elaborate pastry will run around $15 per person.0-
re: greygarious
Is place ok with small children? I'd love to take my 5 yr old daughter here after the museum visit.
Benoit's bar offers all-you-can-eat dessert brunch every Sunday from 12pm to 3pm. It's $16 per person for unlimited French pastries. The pastries are nothing fancy, but tasty.

Some cities try going 'green' with blackouts
On Saturday evening, it's "Lights out San Francisco," where people will voluntary turn off lights for an hour. The aim is to raise awareness of light pollution and the energy wasted by lights left on.
San Francisco
It's lights out come 8 p.m. Saturday for the TransAmerica pyramid, the Golden Gate Bridge, and businesses and dwellings across San Francisco.
Citizens plan to shut off nonessential lighting for an hour in the name of conservation – and community. Restaurants will serve dinner by candlelight, astronomy buffs will be out with their scopes, and musicians will rock out on power from a biodiesel bus.
If participants are expecting a total blackout or a quick fix for global warming, they might have to settle instead for a free energy-efficient light bulb and an event T-shirt that reads: "Good things happen in the dark."
"Our expectations in terms of actual energy savings are not as high as our expectation in terms of just communicating how easy it is to do something very simple," says Nathan Tyler, who's bringing the idea to San Francisco and Los Angeles – and eventually nationwide.
For anyone who has wondered about the wastefulness of the bright lights in big cities, it turns out that some simple fixes do work. US skylines, particularly in California, have become "greener" in recent years with the help of new technologies, tighter regulations, and simple changes in behavior.
"If you look at the San Francisco skyline at night, it's a whole lot darker than it used to be," says Ken Cleveland, director of government public affairs for the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) here. "Some people in the past would have lighting on their buildings at night as part of their signature, [but] times are changing."
Many buildings now have installed motion sensors to shut lights off automatically, often with the help of money paid into a fund by electricity customers.

Tuesday 3 Mar 2015
By Laura Gilbert. Web onlyPublished online: 02 October 2013
In a victory for two collectors who bought fake works from the now-defunct Knoedler gallery, the federal district court in Manhattan in large part rejected a motion to dismiss two lawsuits brought against Knoedler, its former director Ann Freedman, and Glafira Rosales, the art dealer who brought fake paintings to Knoedler.
See also:
"We are very pleased," says John Cahill, the lawyer for one of the collectors, John Howard. He bought a painting from Knoedler in 2007 that he was told was by Willem de Kooning but that turned out to be fake. The other lawsuit has been brought by Domenico and Eleanore De Sole, who purchased a counterfeit work that they were told was by Rothko in 2004. The collectors say that Knoedler, Freedman and Rosales knowingly sold them fakes, and engaged in a corrupt racketeering enterprise (commonly called a "Rico" crime. A successful Rico claim allows plaintiffs to recover triple damages). The court has dismissed the Rico claims in Howard's suit but he plans to file an amended complaint, his lawyer says. The De Soles Rico claims have been upheld. The collectors' suits also made fraud claims under New York state law, saying they purchased the fakes because Freedman allegedly misstated their authenticity and provenance. These claims have been upheld in both cases.In the ruling made on Monday 30 September, the court only considered whether the collectors could support their claims with enough factual allegations and did not decide whether the defendants had engaged in any actual fraud. Rosales pleaded guilty in September to federal charges, including money laundering and tax evasion, and admitted that the works she sold are fakes.The 65-page decision, says: "The facts alleged in each complaint provide an ample record on which to conclude that Freedman, and Knoedler acting through Freedman, its president, participated or 'played some part in directing' the affairs of the alleged racketeering enterprise… [They] demonstrate that Freedman—in her capacity as Knoedler's president—made numerous misrepresentations to Howard and the De Soles and their agents concerning the provenance and authenticity of the forged paintings they purchased. The complaints also plead facts more broadly demonstrating that Freedman likely knew… that her statements were false. For example, Freedman is alleged to have made numerous misrepresentations about… whether Rosales-related paintings would be included in upcoming catalogue raisonnés. Rosales' shifting stories… and her inability to obtain any written corroboration or endorsement from the alleged owner, provide circumstantial evidence that Freedman… knowingly made materially false statements to Howard and the De Soles and their agents." The court rejected Knoedler and Freedman's motion to dismiss on statute of limitations grounds.Freedman has denied that she knew the works were fakes, and said in court papers that she consulted a number of experts about the works' authenticity. Knoedler gallery has consistently denied any wrongdoing. Knoedler and Freedman also say the collectors should have investigated the paintings' authenticity when they bought the works. The court disagrees. About the De Soles, the court says: "They had 'no reason to suspect the authenticity of their Painting' at that time. The De Soles purchased the purported Rothko from Knoedler—at that time, the oldest and most venerable art gallery in New York City. Freedman, Knoedler's president, 'unequivocally, repeatedly, and consistently' represented to the De Soles that the work was an authentic Rothko… In a… 2004 letter, Freedman confirmed many of her oral representations." The court's decision quotes part of the letter, which states: "This classic Rothko painting was acquired directly from the artist" and concluded, "Knoedler warrants the authenticity and good title of the painting". The letter "could hardly be more dispositive as to the authenticity of the Rothko," the court says. Freedman's lawyer, Luke Nikas of Boies Schiller, says: "This is a motion on which the court must accept what the plaintiffs allege as true. We now know through discovery that the things alleged are demonstrably false." He says they will file another motion to dismiss the suit.The court has also ruled that there were insufficient facts to support claims made against Knoedler gallery's owner, Michael Hammer, and his holding company, as well as Glafira Rosales's longtime companion, Jose Carlos Bergantinos Diaz. They have been dismissed from both cases.

There was a great king who had conquered many lands and had accumulated immense wealth, but was very unhappy and miserable. There was not a single moment of joy, bliss.. He started asking people, "What is the purpose of all my wealth and all my kingdom? I cannot even sleep. My mind is so full of tensions, worries, there is no space for anything else. Is there someone in my kingdom who can help me?"
People had heard about a Sufi mystic and they said, "In your kingdom there is a Sufi mystic, a very strange fellow. He has helped many people, although you have to be a little alert with him because he is not predictable, he may do anything. But one thing is certain: whatever he does, finally you find that it had a reason. In the beginning it will look absolutely irrational. If you have courage enough you can go."
The king said, "Do you think me a coward? I have invaded great lands; my whole life has been the life of a warrior. Can a poor Sufi mystic make me afraid? I will go.and I will go alone, no bodyguards, no army, no advisers."
But he took with him a big bag full of diamonds and rubies and emeralds, just to show to the Sufi mystic: "This is only a sample. I have so much money but it is not helping me at all. First I used to think that when I have money I will relax and enjoy. But now money is there and I'm living in hell."
The Sufi mystic was sitting under a tree. The king went there, got down from his horse, touched the feet of the Sufi mystic and asked him, "Can you help me?"
The Sufi mystic said, "What do you want? I will help you immediately."
He had heard that this man was strange - otherwise nobody would tell you, "I will help you immediately." He is going to do something.. The king was a little afraid: nobody wants to be helped immediately. He said, "There is no hurry, but."
The Sufi mystic said, "Just tell me what you want. Don't waste my time. You say it; I will give it to you and be finished."
The king said, "You don't understand. I want peace of mind."
And when he was saying "peace of mind," the Sufi mystic took his bag of emeralds and diamonds and rubies and ran away. The king said, "My God, what kind of man is he? Is he a mystic or a thief?"
He ran - in his whole life he had never run. The village was unknown to him, with small streets. The Sufi was perfectly well known; he lived in that village. The king was shouting, "Catch hold of that thief" - and people were laughing, because people knew that every day something or other happens. And it was really a laughing matter: the king was huffing and puffing and shouting, "Catch him! Why are you just laughing?" - and still running because that old fellow is taking away all his money and he is going so fast.

PNC Park | 7:05 | Van Benschoten vs. Ted Lilly | Box
Nothing went right on Saturday night.
Adam LaRoche was a late scratch, Xavier Nady and Jason Bay combined to go 0 for 7 in the middle of the order, and John Van Benschoten was out of control. The Cubs' offense took advantage early, and Chicago held on to win, 7-1.
JVB lasted only 2.2 innings, throwing 47 of his 73 pitches for strikes. He walked three and allowed seven hits. The relief corps deployed by Jim Tracy—John Wasdin, John Grabow, Masumi Kuwata and Tony Armas—shows that the game got ugly in a hurry.
The top of the Cubs' order combined to go 9 for 19 with a walk, three RBI and four runs scored. Conversely, the Pirates' top four went 2 for 16. It was Goliath versus David, and the giant won.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Pre-game Thoughts
The Post-Gazette is filled with CEO stories this morning, as you can imagine. Lots of quotes about why the move is being made—and why now—to go along with what the Pirates might look for in McClatchy's successor. Over and over again, you hear words like fresh perspective, commitment, accountability.
The second of those links mentions that the jobs of Tracy and Littlefield are safe through the end of 2007. You get the impression, though, that they might be managing for their meal tickets.
To me, it sounds as if Bob Nutting has no desire to become our chief executive. I believe he wants to bring in an outsider, someone who knows what he's doing, in an effort to turn the franchise around. His words are convincing, for some reason.
I suppose, though, we should wait and see. We've heard all the stories before, and yet still we're riding a 14-year losing streak.
In any case, the seemingly never-ending streak of most important games of the year continues this evening. Important in the sense that if the Cubs take these next two, the Pirates are right back where they started before the home stand. If we keep winning, though, we've made progress—and how many times have you been able to say that this season?

A day in the big city!
Auntie Rachel and I had a day to explore in the big city of Shanghai.
After breakfast we walked along the shopping street to go to place called People's Square. The shopping street looks much different during the day. At People's Square there is a beautiful garden and a lot of really cool buildings to look at. We walked around People's Square for a long time. I liked it very much.

The dinner was held in a very nice hotel (Where Mr. O. stayed last year) and was very formal. Here I exchanged gifts with the principals and began to say ...

A day in the mountains
Today Auntie Rachel and I joined our friend Jeff and his family for a day in the mountains!
First we took a long road trip on really windy roads. We saw so many farmers and it was so beautiful and green! When we reached the top of the mountain there was a really big, gorgeous lake! Next, we loaded up on the boat and went on a tour of the lake. It was so pretty!
After our tour on the lake we ...

The teacher (later a student was selected to do this) would wear the wolf mask and face the wall. A group of students would stand near the door and chant "Wolf, wolf what's the time?" The wolf would respond "It is three o'clock." ...

Regardless of how much we all tease Oliver he's a stand up guy. Just received my clubs tree shipment from him.
Regardless of how much we all tease Oliver he's a stand up guy. Just received my clubs tree shipment from him.
I received my trees today. Paid for 10 and he sent 13! Now I need to buy 3 more pots. Can't wait until April so I can plant them.
I read online that it takes up to 7 years for them to have blossoms. Is that true?
[QUOTE=LeonardS;885619 I read online that it takes up to 7 years for them to have blossoms. Is that true?[/QUOTE]
Tell us in seven years how long it took. I don't know. I would think less.
Ordered some BEE BEE trees and received the trees very fast and in terrific shape. Have planted them and can't wait for them to begin growing. If you would like some great BEE BEE trees, contact odfrank. I will definitely buy from him again.
I received mine with some extra whips to boot!
The box looked like it went through some rough travel, but the extra care taken on packing kept the trees in great shape.
They are in the ground and I am excited to watch them grow in the coming months.
Thanks odfrank!
My trees came last week. The packing was great, the trees looked awesome, all are now heeled into a bucket of sand waiting for the ground to thaw. Thank you, here's hoping it doesn't take seven years to see a flower!
My trees came and they look great. After the Bee Bee trees arrived they were put in a pro-mix "sandwich." Heavy paper leaf bag, pro mix, trees, pro-mix, and then wrapped at the root to make a paper pot (secured with string). Then the trees were placed in heavy plastic bag and put in an unheated building. Come spring I can unwrap this "sandwich" and plant. I also received a bonus tree-so a bee friend will benefit from Mr. Frank's Bee Bee trees.
Great service, prompt shipping. Ordered 10 received 12. Thanks
I ordered some seeds from Oliver and recieved them promptly. I stratified them for two months and took them out of the refridgerator on 4/10. I just got around to planting them today. Some of the seeds had already started to germinate! It is surprising how small the seeds are.
What can I say? Like everyone else... except maybe better... Fast, cheap, generous... I got them planted in pots because it's too cold outside, but will transplant them come spring. Thanks Oliver!
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 40y 200h 37yTF
Thank you Michael. I still have trees left if someone want some, 12" minus. They will leaf out soon and be unshippable.
You can donate them to our bee club members if you like. Our meeting is tomorrow night.
Vice President, San Francisco Beekeepers Association

Cru @ BU
Who We Are
We're a Christian campus organization and a recognized student group at BU. We believe everyone is on a spiritual journey – some people might be moving toward God, others might be moving away from God, and some people might be somewhere in the middle. Or they may not know where they are! Our goal is to join others on their spiritual journeys. We want to give everyone in Boston the chance to hear the gospel, learn about Jesus, and respond to it. We think that perhaps the best way to hear the gospel is to see it lived out in community. We'd love to have you join us! Here are a few ways you can get involved:
- Come to Live, our late-night show to meet others from BU.
- Get involved in a Life Group so you can build some deeper relationships.
- Join us at CityWIDE (see below) or the Fall Retreat to connect with hundreds from around Boston.
- Check out our Facebook Page which is a great place to find out about events like Apple Picking.
Live – Tuesdays
Tuesdays, 8-9:30PM in BU Central (Basement of the GSU)
It's a late night show, but not really. A Tuesday night could look like this: We've got different bands. A stage. And an emcee. And as the viewer in the crowd, you can laugh or not laugh at whatever you want. That's the late-night show part.
The not late-night show part is when the band and the shenanigans are done, a student or a Cru staff person steps up and shares a few thoughts on Life, God, Culture, Relationships, Jesus…you name it. This is the part that makes you think.
Then when it's done, we mill around and meet people. And chill. You can expect about 100 people to be there each Tuesday. One of our highest values is the idea that while truth is something we seek outside of ourselves, your journey is your own. We're here to help along the way.
Note: Live will happen every Tuesday night Fall 2014 through 9/30. Then we will meet around once a month for the rest of the year. Check out our Facebook page for more info about when Live is happening after 9/30.
Life Groups
Here at BU, you'll find students gathering together weekly in life groups. A life group is a group of people who've chosen to intentionally do life together. We talk about them being communities of "grace and truth." What that means is they are places that are safe for you to be yourself, with all your questions and baggage. So that means each of us will be accepted and loved and cared for. But out of that love will come a healthy amount of "truth." We want to see our lives changed. And so we are committed to challenging each other with what the Bible says.

Friday Nights, 7:30-9PM at Park Street Church
Because Boston has so many universities next to each other, we gather together on Friday nights at Park Street Church for a meeting we call "Citywide." At Citywide, you'll find a couple hundred students from across the city. There'll be a great band with students from Berklee and other great music schools, there'll be a student sharing a little about their life and what's happening on their campus, and there'll be a talk by one of our staff. After the meeting, everyone hangs out eating 50 dozen fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. We've got parties, dances, and all sorts of fun stuff after the meeting is over. It's a great way to meet people from other campuses across the city.
To get to Citywide, take the Green line inbound to Park Street and get off. Park Street Church is the church with the huge white and gold steeple that you see right as you walk out. Contact Ethan for more directions, or to connect with other students that go to Citywide together on Friday nights.
Note: Citywide will happen every Friday night Fall 2014 through 9/26. Then we will meet around once a month for the rest of the year. See the official calendar here.
About us
Cru at BU and Bridges International are all a part of Cru, which is the US ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ. You can read our statement of faith here.

Love wins every time.
I'll take love with a side of love please :)
love b/c money just makes problems....and i have lived that already, I'm ready for love.
love over money
Love ... always. I'd rather be poor living in a box with someone I loved dearly then rich in a mansion alone.
If by choosing you mean a pile of money is sitting in one corner and all the people I love are sitting in another corner and I had to choose I would choose the people I love.

If by choosing you mean by some magical means I was offered riches and in exchange I would never find true love with the opposite sex ... I would take the money no contest ha ha ha.
I chose love, those who have money are usually really lonely because most only want them for that reason. So they have no real love..I couldn't imagine my life that way.
$$$Money$$.

Yes, Money will get you all the "love" you could possibly want. Not true love, but if she's hot who cares?

Money..... I have family and friends to love.
Love

You Can Have All The Money In The World But With No One To Share It With.

And I don't want to be a Mr.Burns who's Lonely but has so much money. :)
How much money are we talking here hmmmm?
in that case money i could do a lot more good with it and give the love to others.
love........trailer park here i come!
money. I could live without love
It depends on the situation, but I do love to shop. lol

I was visiting the website as a reminder of our visits to Mersey River and thought I'd take the opportunity to add a comment. We have had the extreme pleasure of staying at Mersey River Chalets twice. It is one of the most beautiful and relaxing places we have ever stayed, and hope to return yet again. The Chalets are very comfortable and well-furnished, the Cascades Restaurants is fantastic, and all of the folks who run and work at Mersey River are truly friendly. We will always cherish the time our family has spent at Mersey River Chalets and truly consider it to be one of the many gems of Nova Scotia. Thanks to Tim and everyone at Mersey River Chalets!
