For us, we like the Chico travel system.
With our youngest we bought a snugride and then the Bumbleride flyer stroller. I loved that the stroller could face us as we were pushing it and reclined flat so that we could lay her in there and fold up the footrest, making it like a bassinet. We really only used the car seat in the car.

FTM here... I am all about simple, inexpensive (but not necessarily cheap), and no frills. After reading this discussion, I am leaning towards the Graco Snugride with the stroller frame. It seems to be the best of both worlds. A good stable carseat, but an easy compact stroller to hold the carseat.

Graco Snugride is what we have and have used. But the Graco Strollers really suck, for lack of better words. Im stuck with mine and HATE it.

Zena564, the Snugride is good!
By the time your LO is too big for it, you will have had plenty of time to research a good convertible seat. Most kids outgrow the Sungride before they turn 1.
I'm a travel system fan too...love my Chicco...and I loved being able to take my sleeping infant around in his carrier.
I do love the City Mini...but I can't help but notice all the poor munchkins that are scrunched in the seat like a banana. I sure hope the 2011 version corrected that problem. It doesn't look comfortable!
I love love love my britix marithon. With this one I am skipping the infant seat and going directly into the marathon, and just wear baby when we are out and about.
I did a lot of research on car seats with DD, the marathon was just the highest rated and even though it is pricey it is what I am going to go with. DD will be in this seat until she is out of the age bracket.
Mommy to Natalie Blair Aug 2007 - m/c 7/26/11 @ 9w1d
We used (and will reuse) a Graco travel system. I loved snapping that carrier in & out of the base when DD was tiny. The bulkiness of the stroller has never bothered me. It's hard to sip my coffee, steer AND hold the dog's leash, but I'm pretty sure that's not the stroller's fault. We still use the stroller for things like the zoo, and having the basket underneath and cup holders up top make my life soooooo much easier.
We have a Britax Roundabout 50 for DD now (which I also love). She's the rear-facing queen of the under-three set.

The Snugride is a great seat for the price. Here's a secret. If you're going to get the Teutonia system, get a Graco car seat, because the Snugride is the EXACT same as the Teutonia, for $100 less. (Graco makes Teutonia)
Just a thought if you have time and I'm by no means trying to start any sort of arguement. However, if you have time, you can watch videos on youtube that show the difference in a side impact car accident in a Britax vs. another car seat. I realize that not everyone can afford a 350 dollar carseat and therefore do not want to make anyone feel bad for using another seat. But it's amazing when you watch the video when you see how much safer a Britax is vs. other manufacturers. They are certain standards that all carseats must have, yes. But those are the minimum safety standards. Britax goes above and beyond those standards and the extra effort that they put into their seats makes such a huge difference in crash tests as far as head trauma goes. Just a thought. Don't mean to step on any toes!

These heirloom-quality spoons are made by Emily Brock, a third-generation woodworker (her father makes furniture; her grandfather made wooden staircases). She is based in Nashville and uses local woods, like the black walnut seen here. She has also worked as a cook and a baker, and I love the practical sensibility of a cook who would design a perfect scrambled egg spoon like this (although of course it can be used for so much more than just eggs).

No Carving Board? Here's a Hack to Make Any Cutting Board Better for a Turkey.
Tips from The Kitchn
The most ideal carving situation for a Thanksgiving turkey (or any large piece of meat) is a big cutting board with wells or grooves to catch the juices that leak out when you're carving. But you may not be able to justify the space for an oversized board like this if you only use it once or twice a year for holidays.
Here's a quick hack to make your everyday cutting board into a better setup for a large bird, roast, or piece of meat.

Living near a restaurant supply store is a dangerous thing. If you're like me, you've gotten good at justifying buying too many loaf pans (they're only $5!), too many little one-use tools (I can make that dessert I saw on Pinterest!), and too many cookie sheets (think of all the Christmas cookies!). My last kitchen in Raleigh, North Carolina, had all the tools I could ever want, mostly inherited from family members and former roommates or bought from that restaurant supply store. I rarely got rid of anything because I had plenty of room to store it. Moving out, I think I found six different sets of measuring spoons.
So moving continents to Hanoi, Vietnam was an opportunity to start over.

Men's Top 5 Health Concerns

Men and Hair Loss: What Are the Options?
It may seem a peculiar American vanity that men have in-boxes full of hair loss treatment offers and spend billions of dollars on hair loss treatments each year. Not so. As Gersh Kuntzman illustrates in his book Hair! Mankind's Historic Quest to End Baldness, chrome-dome anxiety has tormented us for ages. Caesar's laurel wreaths? Classic red herring, Kuntzman says. Baldness is biblical, too -- from the Maccabees to Samson and Delilah (a story Kuntzman calls "practically a commercial for Propecia")...
Read the Men and Hair Loss: What Are the Options? article > >
"A few days," he answered, speculating it was probably just an outbreak of eczema.
"That doesn't look good," I replied. "Maybe you should see your doctor."
"OK," he said. I shook my head, knowing it would be a while before he heeded my suggestion. Last year, it took a few months to convince him to go for a physical examination. Before that, it had been five years since he'd been to a doctor.
To Noel's credit, he's just being a guy. According to a 2001 CDC report, women are 33% more likely than men to visit a doctor in general, although the gap narrows with increasing age.
One could accept the statistic as just another difference between men and women, but the stakes are too high to remain complacent.
The Men's Health Network (MHN) reports that men die at higher rates than women from the top 10 causes of death - heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, accidents, pneumonia and influenza, diabetes, suicide, kidney disease, and chronic liver disease and cirrhosis.
Men also die younger than women. In 1920, women outlived men only by one year. Today, CDC figures show the life expectancy gap has widened: On average, women survive men by over five years.
"Any human being who is not connected to a physician to screen for major health problems is at greater risk (of disease and death)," says Jean Bonhomme, MD, MPH, a board member of the MHN.
The biggest problem that men have is not so much a specific disease, says Bonhomme, but the diseases are the result of lack of health care monitoring earlier in life. He cites the progression of heart disease as an example: "If you don't get your cholesterol checked when it's going high when you're 20, and if don't get your blood pressure checked when it's going high when you're 30, maybe your blood sugar's getting a little high when you're 40, what do you think is going to happen when you're 50?"

Findings fan flames of fire office scandal
$300K in expenses wrongly paid to staff: Bellringer
Former senior members of the Office of the Fire Commissioner allegedly colluded to fabricate expense claims for several years before getting caught.
At least $300,000 in inappropriate expenses were paid to OFC employees -- often with little or no documentation -- between 2007 and 2011, the province's auditor general, Carol Bellringer, concluded in a report released Wednesday.
She said the financial irregularities may have escaped notice longer if American Express hadn't cancelled a government-issue credit card for non-payment.
The credit card had been issued to then-fire commissioner Christopher Jones. The province's comptroller, Betty-Anne Pratt, was informed of the cancelled card in early 2011 and launched an internal investigation.
By July of that year, Jones, deputy OFC commissioner Justin Panagapko and one other senior employee were fired. A fourth employee took early retirement.
Then-finance minister Rosann Wowchuk asked Bellringer to conduct a forensic audit of the OFC. The government received the report this past November and has forwarded a copy to the RCMP.
In a press conference Wednesday, Bellringer, flanked by four members of her staff, released her annual report, which included a 12-page summary of the OFC audit.
"Over several years, we believe, OFC employees received payments they were not entitled to that were supported by documents that may have been fabricated and, in one instance, may have been forged," she said.
Travel expenses believed to be fabricated included meal per diems, private accommodation (billing the employer, in some cases $80 per night, for staying at a friend's or relative's place), private vehicle mileage and incidental expenses, none of which required a receipt.
The auditor general said she wanted to examine the OFC's expense accounts extending back to 2005, but couldn't because the OFC destroys such record after four years.
While the province had previously acknowledged the involvement of four former employees in the questionable expense activities, Bellringer's report mentions a total of five. None (including Jones) was named in the report released on Wednesday.
"I still cannot understand how so many people could have been involved and it was not found sooner," Bellringer remarked at one point during the press conference that lasted more than an hour. Her report offers a couple of explanations, however.
The OFC's own financial comptroller had his authority usurped, at some point, by superiors, leaving him unable to examine or approve expense claims. Instead, expense claims were processed by an accounting clerk. The comptroller complained to a provincial government human resources director, but no action was taken.
The fire commissioner approved the expenses of his underlings. His own expenses were supposed to be approved by the overseeing department's deputy minister. But Bellinger said her findings suggest "that the former OFC officials colluded to circumvent" this requirement. Cash advances made to the fire commissioner were "cleared off by an expense claim of other OFC staff members," according to her report. "We believe these expense claims may have been fabricated by OFC staff at the insistence of the former fire commissioner," Bellringer said.
Family Services and Labour Minister Jennifer Howard was on vacation and could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Dave Dyson, an assistant deputy minister, said the department is working with the OFC to implement 57 recommendations for improvement put forward by a team of government finance officials and internal auditors more than a year ago.
"Our job is to do everything we can to make sure it doesn't happen again," he said.
Dyson noted because senior officials were involved in the alleged wrongdoing, it was more difficult for the government to discover it. "What occurred here is that we had senior people collude," he said.
The Progressive Conservative Opposition, meanwhile, wondered what other accounting skeletons might be lurking in the NDP government's closet.
Morris MLA Mavis Taillieu said the government failed to exercise sufficient oversight over the OFC, noting the office's own financial comptroller tried to warn the government something was amiss but was ignored.
Bellringer has recommended the government review its Public Interest Disclosure Act in light of the OFC problems. But so far, she said, the government feels its whistle-blower policies and procedures are effective.
Explosive details
Findings on the Office of the Fire Commissioner made by Manitoba's auditor general in her annual report:
More than $300,000 in inappropriate spending was discovered, including questionable meal per diems, mileage claims, billings for private accommodation and incidental expenses.
Five former senior Office of the Fire Commissioner officials are implicated. Sources say former fire commissioner Christopher Jones and deputy fire commissioner Justin Panagapko were among them.
The former fire commissioner used his work American Express card "extensively for cash advances and personal expenses," contrary to government guidelines.
Alleged wrongdoing occurred between 2007 and 2011. OFC financial records predating April 1, 2007, were destroyed.
There is evidence former senior OFC officials "colluded" to prevent a government deputy minister from overseeing the fire commissioner's expenses.
Government oversight over the OFC, a special operating agency reporting to the Family Services and Labour Department, was lacking.

Human Transit

Public transit is a powerful tool for addressing a huge range of urban problems, including traffic congestion and economic development as well as climate change. But while many people support transit in the abstract, it's often hard to channel that support into good transit investments. Part of the problem is that transit debates attract many kinds of experts, who often talk past each other. Ordinary people listen to a little of this and decide that transit is impossible to figure out.
Jarrett Walker believes that transit can be simple, if we focus first on the underlying geometry that all transit technologies share. In Human Transit, Walker supplies the basic tools, the critical questions, and the means to make smarter decisions about designing and implementing transit services.
Human Transit explains the fundamental geometry of transit that shapes successful systems; the process for fitting technology to a particular community; and the local choices that lead to transit-friendly development. Whether you are in the field or simply a concerned citizen, here is an accessible guide to achieving successful public transit that will enrich any community.
"Intelligent, refreshing, balanced and richly mindful of the unique settings of individual communities."
Douglas MacDonald, former Secretary, Washington State Department of Transportation
"Human Transit provides practical guidance for urban public transit system development in prose that is clear and entertaining without being simplistic. This book should be useful to anybody involved in public transit planning, design, or advocacy."
Todd Litman, Victoria Transport Policy Institute
"This book gives professionals, pundits and the citizenry the tools to have conversations that lead to real solutions rather than confrontations."
Terry Lee-Williams, Transport and Access Manager, City of Sydney, Australia
"Jarrett Walker pulls transit out of its specialist silo and treats it in layman's terms, as an embodiment of shared values and a partial answer to the vital question 'what kind of city do you want?' Human Transit is an engrossing narrative that explains the real choices that informed citizens need to make."
Ken Greenberg, author of Walking Home: the Life and Lessons of a City Builder
"It's difficult to categorize Jarrett Walker's excellent new book, Human Transit. It's not quite for a popular audience, though it's written with engaging ease. It's not for academics, though it's as thorough as most published research and far more approachable. It's not strictly for a policy audience, though it's fresh grist for any transit wonk's mill. Its closest literary cousin may be a good language book, for it feels capable of teaching anyone, beginner or beyond, to speak Transit more fluently."
The Atlantic Cities
"Human Transit is a choice addition for any social issues or urban development collection."
Midwest Book Review
"Walker leads the reader through these intricate considerations with dexterity and thoroughness."
"Walker...has produced a well-written, totally nonpolemical, very readable book describing the many tradeoffs to be considered in meeting local goals for providing transit service."
"Walker takes complicated and often technical subjects and presents them to the reader in layman's terms."
Urban Review STL
"Human Transit... presents itself as a sort of Public Transportation for Dummies, explaining in abstract, but remarkably clear, terms the logic that governs public transit systems and the choices—some technical, some ethical—that transit planners and operators make."
California Planning & Development Report
"Once in a while, a book comes along that summarizes most of what's important about a particular subject, and it does so in a way that's lucid and effortless. One such book is Jarrett Walker's Human Transit…This is an easy read. You can go through the whole book in a few hours. That makes its lessons more likely to be absorbed. Human Transit will serve you well as a source you can turn to for reference in the future. It will also make you a better new urbanist."
Better! Cities & Towns
"Human Transit is well organized with short chapters and clear diagrams to illustrate some of the more complex concepts ... Walker does a good job of avoiding transportation planning jargon and makes careful choices about terminology... His writing style makes it easy to understand types of running ways, the reasons agencies are concerned about farebox returns, and the benefits of new technologies such as Smartcards."

If you have been reading my columns over the past year, you know I am very big on reading business books. September is like the beginning of a new year, because the summer is over and the kids are back in school. Many companies begin their fiscal years in September.When I look for books to read, I basically stay away from the self-congratulating biographies of Fortune 500 CEOs and focus on books that will provide me with:
- new business concepts;
- new businesses;
- information on businesses I know nothing about; or
- information on accounting and legal issues that would affect my business.

Chris Rock
The William F-ing Buckley of stand-up.
Rock also won't burn down the academy's house because he's not that kind of comedian. In Raw, Eddie Murphy's feature-length stand-up film, Murphy opens by describing a phone call from Bill Cosby, who has called, Drudge-like, to complain that he swears too much. Nonplussed, Murphy calls Richard Pryor for advice. Pryor says tell Cosby to have a Coke and a smile and shut the … well you get the idea. The point of the bit is to establish where Murphy aligns himself in the stand-up canon—with the irreverence of Pryor, not the tamer stuff of Cosby.
Rock's breakout 1996 HBO special Bring the Pain, on the other hand, opens by flashing a series of album covers on the screen: the seminal works of Woody Allen, Steve Martin, Cosby and Murphy and Pryor. Rock has always striven for range. He can do a bit that's as raunchy as Pryor but he is also as spot-on about family as Cosby. Indeed, his recent material has increasingly focused on the rigors of marriage and the challenges of raising a daughter (specifically, the challenge of not raising a daughter who becomes a stripper). "I can play the Apollo, and I could play the Senate," Rock bragged to Charlie Rose last year. "In the same day. And have great shows at both." He's probably right.

in response to sdentAs far as I know, you cannot change the rate at which the "on-the-fly" conversion is. I think it's locked at 128kbps AAC for the time being. Although, that certainly is a good idea! I purposely do not have that option checked because yeah I prefer my 320 or 256/256VBR over the 128 on my iPod. It's a good suggestion though and you could submit that to Apple if you like. Would be cool if implemented in a future version.
I mean, you COULD still make a playlist of files to go on your iPod, convert them to 320 AAC manually, and then sync that playlist to your iPod. But that's a pain, and that would also leave duplicates in your Library, so it's not even worth it.
Neal Jackson May 2, 2010 5:09 PM
in response to sdentI've posted a "Feedback" suggestion to Apple for precisely this feature. Though I did request on-the-fly conversion years ago and we've only just got 128K. You just have to keep hammering at that door until someone hears you. iTunes>Provide iTunes Feedback>Cross Fingers.
Meg St._Clair May 2, 2010 5:31 PM
in response to sdentConverting from 128 to 320 would not get you any improved sound quality. Both .mp3 and .aac are lossy formats. When music is converted to those formats, information is removed. You can't add back information that isn't there. All you will be doing is making the file larger. If you want to convert your music to a higher bit rate, you'll need to rerip it from CDs at the higher bit rate.
Neal Jackson May 2, 2010 6:11 PM
in response to Meg St._ClairI think the posters were talking about an on-the-fly ability to convert from AIFF, Apple Lossless, etc., to a bit rate higher than 128K not converting from 128k to 320k etc. I, too, think 128k is an unacceptable bit rate. iTunes should be able to take a look at your library, the size of the storage space on your iPod (after a reformat) and suggest the best fit or offer a slider that you can adjust manually to set the bit rate that will allow you to transfer your library onto your iPod leaving some room for additional tracks.
There's a programming opportunity for some developer to solve.
Mike Johnson12 May 2, 2010 6:48 PM
in response to sdentFrom the iTunes prefs>General tab 'Import' settings - select the Import tab to get a dialog and you can change the settings.
Neal Jackson May 2, 2010 6:56 PM
in response to Mike Johnson12MJ what you are suggesting doesn't work for transferring tracks from iTunes to an iPod. Apple have locked the bit rate at 128K...far too lossy.
Mike Johnson12 May 2, 2010 7:02 PM
in response to Neal JacksonYou will need to convert the track in iTunes first. Then create a PL of those converted tunes to be transferred to the iPod.
Brent M. May 2, 2010 7:57 PM
in response to Mike Johnson12MJ, the OP indicated that he was interested in changing settings for on-the-fly conversion. Understandably, he doesn't want to go through the hassle of manually converting his songs and having duplicates, not to mention creating playlists.
Mike Johnson12 May 2, 2010 8:24 PM
in response to Brent M.Unless you know how to write iTunes code my suggestion is about as on the 'fly' as you can get.
Meg St._Clair May 3, 2010 11:39 AM
in response to Neal JacksonYou are most likely correct. Was not entirely compes mentis last night (10 mile race in the heat).
Neal Jackson May 3, 2010 1:36 PM
in response to Meg St._ClairThat'll be compos mentis. You need to take a cold shower, mate.

Michael Carnes May 11, 2010 11:03 AM
in response to sdentI'd like to see two changes to this potentially useful on-the-fly conversion.
1) Let the user specify the bit rate. I agree that 128K is too low.
2) Give the user an option to avoid transcoding. In other words, if it's already AC3 or MP3, don't convert. In this case, only convert non-lossy formats.
Chris CA May 11, 2010 11:41 AM
in response to Michael CarnesThere are a zillion things iTunes could be programmed to do but the more complex it is, the harder it is to use, the more code there is, etc.
I'd like to see two changes to this potentially useful on-the-fly conversion

Michele Bachmann assails conservative opponents in new ad
Michele Bachmann's campaign ads have continued to be a mind-boggling facet of this presidential race.
A couple months ago, she released four minutes of what looked like a bad Power Point presentation that made us think her campaign was running on fumes. Her new ad, released earlier this week, manages to assail the cast of conservative opponents in a single minute using their own words.
The ad was released with an accompanying website called "No Surprises 2012." The gist is that everyone else is a flip-flopper. With Bachmann, you get what you pay for.
The web-only ad begins with footage of Mitt Romney saying that abortion should be legal, and pretty much goes from there. Ron Paul thinks Iran should have nukes. Newt Gingrich loves Nancy Pelosi. Romney and Gingrich invented the health care mandate. Rick Perry is, well, an idiot.
Coincidentally, the ad comes out just after a new poll that puts Bachmann in sixth place in the race for the nomination.

Two Chinese Films withdraw from PSIFF
2010 Palm Springs International Film Festival
Palm Springs, CA (January 6, 2010) – Two Chinese films selected for the 21st Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival (PSIFF), City of Life and Death and Quick, Quick, Slow, have been withdrawn in response to the screening of the documentary of The Sun Behind the Clouds: Tibet's Struggle for Freedom about the Dalai Lama and Tibet.Commenting on the films, Festival Director Darryl Macdonald said, "After meeting with representatives from the Chinese government regarding their request to cancel our screenings of The Sun Behind the Clouds: Tibet's Struggle for Freedom, we have respectfully declined their request. I'm saddened that the Chinese film authorities have chosen to withdraw their films from PSIFF, as the Festival is an international cultural event whose mandate is to present a wide cross section of perspectives and points of view. That said, we cannot allow the concerns of one country or community to dictate what films we should or should not play, based on their own cultural or political perspective. Freedom of expression is a concept that is integral both to the validity of artistic events, and indeed, to the ethos of this country."The Sun Behind the Clouds: Tibet's Struggle for Freedom follows the Dalai Lama's trials and tribulations and over an eventful year, including the 2008 protests in Tibet, the long march in India, the Beijing Olympics, and the breakdown of talks with China. The film screens on Sunday, January 10 at 1:30 p.m. and Tuesday, January 12 at 4:00 p.m.The Festival will replace City of Life and Death with the following screenings: • For a Moment Freedom (Austria/France), which centers on a group of Middle Eastern refugees who have made their way to Turkey to apply for European visas, will screen on Friday, January 8 at 11:30 a.m. • Sticky Fingers (Canada/France/Spain), a comedy about six of the world's worst gangsters, will screen on Sunday, January 10 at 5:30 p.m. Replacement screenings for Quick, Quick, Slow will be announced at a later date.Celebrating its 21st anniversary, PSIFF was founded in 1990 by then-Mayor Sonny Bono. This year's Festival will include over 180 films from approximately 70 countries. The Festival presents a majority of the films submitted for consideration in the Best Foreign Language category for the Academy Awards, as well as a large number of American independent and international features and documentaries marking their world, North American or U.S. debuts. Screenings are held on 15 screens throughout Palm Springs.Your source for tourism information visit, www.palmspringsusa.com.

Money Tap Loosens, But Rules Tighten
By TRACIE ROZHON
Published: January 26, 1997
THE way developers and bankers tell the stories, Manhattan was like the Wild West during a good part of the 1980's: Bankers were lending developers money with flimsy pay-back guarantees; in some cases, without any money down. Loans were handed out based on inflated estimates. Approvals were taken for granted -- some developers started to dig foundations for their tall apartment towers before they even held the deed to the land. Money was flowing.
The tap was abruptly switched off after the stock market slide of 1987. But now, with a soaring rental market and a steadily climbing sales market, bankers and developers say the tap has been opened, to at least a trickle. But the lenders are, for the most part, different -- and so are the rules.
''My assessment is that the development community has changed fundamentally,'' said Christopher M. Jeffries, a principal of Millennium Partners, the successful Upper West Side development group. ''The 80's were about greed on Wall Street and in real estate; about money and the availability of money that caused real estate to be developed that should not have been built.''
Before they lend a nickel to a developer -- for new construction or the large number of major rehabilitation projects around -- banks now demand substantial cash commitments up front from the developers, sometimes as much as 40 percent. Banks are demanding ''preleasing, precommitments'' -- written pledges from retail tenants -- anything they can get to limit their risk.
If there are overruns during construction, Mr. Jeffries and other developers say, the banks are requiring that the amount of the overrun be made up -- right then and there -- from the developer's pocket.
This new rigor, they say, has resulted in a change in the way developers do business. The swashbuckler, the loner-with-a-vision, has now been replaced by the development team. Even Donald J. Trump says he has changed his style, accepting deals where he doesn't share the profits until the investors take back the money they put in, and even taking a commission as developer-for-hire. Ian Bruce Eichner, another major developer who ran into trouble in the late 80's, just formed a joint venture to develop two low-rise buildings in SoHo. Matthew Adell, who, along with his father, Leonard, owns sizable chunks of three blocks on Sixth Avenue in the 20's, is one of the few developers with a big site who has, so far, managed to hold out without taking an outside partner. Mr. Adell's focus for now is the first of three rental buildings that he plans to put up. ''We're just putting on blinders and trying to move forward on this one alone,'' Mr. Adell said last week. ''Maybe for the others we'll go with a joint venture.''
For the largest development in sight, the massive 5,700-unit Riverside South project, Mr. Trump swapped a significant part of the project, including his ownership of the land beneath it in return for Asian money to build. An executive in his organization said last week he still retains 30 percent ownership of the project, with provisions to increase that percentage as certain rental and sales goals are met.
In a deal that became known two weeks ago, Mr. Trump has signed on in a joint venture with an Australian insurance company to turn the St. Moritz Hotel into million-dollar condominiums overlooking Central Park. In yet another new deal, Mr. Trump is the developer hired to transform the Mayfair Hotel into condominium apartments; he does not own a piece of the property.
In another new deal, Mr. Eichner, the developer involved in several of the most spectacular tailspins of the 1980's -- he lost both Cityspire and 1540 Broadway, now the Bertelsmann Building -- has formed a joint venture with Hank Sopher, who founded the real estate firm that bears his name.
Mr. Sopher had the land, two parcels across the street from each other in SoHo, on Houston Street between Mercer and Greene; Mr. Sopher's previous plan to build a hotel had gone nowhere. Mr. Eichner wants to build two low-rise apartment buildings, with 140 market-rate housing units. The $24 million for the project will come through conventional sources, he said.
Mr. Eichner had earlier persuaded the Union Labor Life Insurance Company (Ullico), a union fund manager that invests in projects that employ union labor, to commit $33 million in long-term loans for his almost-completed 25-story, 121-apartment condominium at 201 East 80th Street, called the Richmond.
SOMETIMES the partnerships and joint ventures merely signify that a wealthy lending institution or individual is brought in strictly to provide cash. But sometimes, as in the cases of Mr. Trump and Mr. Eichner, a partner is brought in to perform development services, in exchange for a percentage of the profits. In the same way, Millennium Partners has banded together, not only with some German lending institutions, but with Bovis Construction, a subsidiary of Lehrer McGovern Bovis, the building contractor, according to Mr. Jeffries. The construction company was given a share of some of the profits of all Millennium's West Side projects in a 1992 agreement.

Eastgate owner has eye on other sitesPublished 4:31pm Wednesday, November 23, 2011
With the old Eastgate Shopping Plaza in Niles Township slowly being taken down, the owner of the property is now looking to obtain a plot of property owned by the township near the plaza.
B.G. Green, a member of ML Developers, sent a letter to township board members last week requesting first right of refusal to purchase the property at 1945 Oak St., the site of the old Shell gas station.
Township trustees agreed to consult the township attorney regarding what they can do with the property.
"We don't want to get in the situation that South Bend got into with the Family Dollar store they were trying to give to somebody," Township Supervisor Jim Kidwell said, referencing the city's controversial attempt to buy the store and then transfer it to St. Joseph's High School for a dollar.
ML Developers could be in play to make the old Eastgate property the site of the new United Federal Credit Union headquarters. Kidwell said ML Developers have submitted a proposal to the credit union, which is looking for a property 15 to 40 acres for the new building.
Kidwell said the credit union office would be a boon to the township and believes the old Eastgate property is an ideal site.
"I think it's a good spot. It's on a well-traveled road," he said.
Shelley Klug, executive director of Southwestern Michigan Growth Alliance, said she can't comment much on the credit union's search process.
"I am hopeful that some of the many properties submitted from the Niles-Buchanan area will be among the finalists," she said.
United Federal Credit Union, which has nine branches in Michigan including two in Niles, expects to make more than 500 new hires by the year 2020.
Eastgate was a popular shopping center in the 1960s and 70s, featuring more than 20 businesses.
When the property was sold to MoorPark Associates in the mid-1990s, businesses began to vacate and the property began to deteriorate due to lack of maintenance.
