With Taylor Swift leading the way, grossing more than $110 million for her North American tour, the concert business appears to have fully recovered from its summer struggles of three years ago. Overall ticket revenues have jumped from $1.7 billion in 2000 to $5.1 billion last year, according to Pollstar's newly released end-of-2013 data. The numbers are especially encouraging for fans, given average ticket prices went up just 1.1 percent, to $69.52. In part, prices were low because of tours like Swift, whose prices

ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
You read Australian Business Traveller, you have strategies for minimising stress and maximising frequent flyer points, you're a packing ninja -- in short, you're firmly in the "advanced traveller" camp.
Over the years I've put together my own set of tips to take this to the next level. With a tip of the hat to the late business guru Stephen Covey, I consider them the seven habits of the highly effective business traveller.
1. Check in as soon as you can
If your flight is even slightly mission-critical, you'll want to check in ASAP -- and that usually means online. Highly effective business travellers set a reminder for themselves (or a clued-in colleague) to check in.
Checking in early gets you the best choice of seats on board -- which will maximise your inflight productivity or relaxation. (If you have a colleague doing the check-in for you while you're travelling or in a meeting, check out our Best Seats guides and give them a few tips on what seats you like and dislike: yes to bulkheads, no to windows, nothing at the front of the cabin, that kind of thing.)
And if something goes wrong -- the flight is horrendously oversold or the plane is replaced by a smaller one, and someone has to be bumped -- it's usually the people who wait to check in until they get to the airport who get the red "bleep" on the airline's systems.
2. Always know where your lounge is...
It's always handy to know which lounge you're heading for, and whereabouts in the terminal it is.
Not all airports are mapped well, many are confusing, and some have more than one lounge for the same airline or airline alliance.
Know which lounge you want -- whether it's the largest, the smallest, the closest to your gate, the one with the showers -- and how to get there.
3. ...and know how far the lounge is from the gate
When arriving at the lounge, find out how long it should take you to walk to the gate, and what time boarding will finish. Certain airports like Frankfurt and Heathrow are especially walking-prone, and pelting at Olympic speed down the corridors with your rollaboard is a surefire way to start off your flight badly.
Often, lounges don't make boarding calls, so you may need to keep an eye on the time. (Make sure your watch/phone/laptop is on the right time zone, of course!)
4. See if there's a pair of empty seats
While direct aisle access is a real boon to business travellers, there are many airlines that still require business class passengers in window or middle seats to bound like a gazelle (or hippo, depending) over the aisle person.
Ask at check-in, at the lounge and on board whether there's a spare seat next to you that can be blocked off so that you have spare space in flight. The worst they can say is "no".
5. Check your seat's in full working order before takeoff
Even on the best airlines, there are occasionally maintenance issues that mean your seat doesn't work as it should. Airlines can often fix things before departure when maintenance people are around.
If they can't fix it, seats are usually fixed on departure, whereas things can be jigged around before leaving (by moving an airline employee flying at a reduced rate to another seat, for example).
I check that the seat:
- is clean
- reclines completely
- has a working table
- and its entertainment system are functional
- comes with a juiced-up power point
(Note that the latter two may not always be activated on the ground.)
6. Snag spare pillows and blankets
If you want a spare pillow or two, ask as soon as you can in case they run out. While checking that your seat's recline works, figure out if you'll need to pad any bits of it with pillows and blankets to make it more comfortable.
The same "ask early" advice goes for blankets if you tend to be cold, or if you like to pad your seat.
Extra pillows and blankets are especially useful if you're taking our advice to make angled lie-flat seats more comfortable.
7. Introduce yourself to the person in charge
On the very best airlines, the head cabin crew members (who might be called the purser, cabin crew manager, leading stewardess, cabin director or similar) will introduce themselves to business class passengers.
If they don't, seek them out once you're in the air and introduce yourself. Find something to compliment, explain that you're a frequent flyer and that you're looking forward to a relaxing/quiet/productive/sleep-filled/gourmet/drink-fuelled flight.
Consider asking that the crew keep your coffee/tea/water/wine/beer/Coke filled up, or mentioning that you detest fish but forgot to say when booking. It's amazing how much your flight can be improved by getting the head honcho to take an interest in you.
How did you score?
- 6-7: you're a highly effective business traveller. Relax in the most comfortable seat on the plane and share your secrets with fellow travellers in a comment below.
- 4-5: getting there! Keep on picking up tips while you shoot envious looks at that person who managed to pick up your favourite seat.
- 1-3: courage, grasshopper: everyone started somewhere. Set aside some time to learn from others' hard-won tips -- and follow us on Twitter for the very latest. We're @AusBT.

With a little help from on high - and the green light from a high-ranking TV executive - that third name soon might fit just fine among pop culture icons mined from reality television.
That's because the Rev. Steve Porter of St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church and Derek Christopher of Lighthouse Blues Television Productions have spent the last nine months filming, editing and pitching a reality TV series tentatively titled "Divine Intervention" to big-time networks.
"I often say if the Bible were written today, no one would publish it, and what's more, no government would allow it to be published because there's not just the sexy stuff in there, there's also radical revolutionary stuff in there, and no government would want to read that and think `This is about me,"' Porter said Friday.
He said this, of course, while sporting a Hawaiian shirt, which he often wore while speaking with strangers on the streets or parishioners in the pews about life, love and a lot of other serious and not-so-serious stuff during the months of filming.
Sure, he counsels couples in broken marriages. But he also gets requests to baptize pets.
Spend enough time with the 61-year-old native of South Africa, and one instantly picks up on the charming traits and quirky contradictions that inspired Christopher to create a show based on a Roman Catholic priest he ran into at a funeral.
With a Bible on his office desk, Porter easily expounds on the TV series "House." He's as familiar with "Star Trek" as he is with St. Peter. He preaches from the Good Book, and posts on Facebook.
"A friend of my wife's passed away and so we came here to the church for the funeral," Christopher said. "And the next thing I know, this guy transformed this terribly sad situation into a complete celebration, and people were laughing and they were celebrating and all I could think of was, `My God, this guy needs his own show,' because he was funny, he was witty, intelligent, he was a great storyteller."
They exchanged e-mails and embarked on a project to capture the daily life of a priest ministering to the flock, the lost sheep and just the plain old lost.
Daniel Elias, president of New York-based Hybrid Films (responsible for the shows "Dog The Bounty Hunter" and "Parking Wars"), signed a deal with Porter and Christopher to produce the show after he was drawn into the footage of the priest who "plunged into the daily lives of others, sometimes at their most joyful of times, but often at their most desperate of times."
Porter said the show always comes back to one theme.
"It's going to be about spiritual life and how to grow in the spiritual life and how to use the spiritual life to overcome life's problems," he said. "I want to be able in this show to face real questions people have."
Those include questions about finances, facing death, dealing with abortion, how God can be good when there are wars in the world, and why priests take on a life of celibacy.
Porter cuts through the subject of sex and Catholicism with a double-edged sword of humor and humility.
"Sadly, abuse of children is endemic everywhere, not just among clergy, but everywhere. And the Catholic church has faced it - we were forced to face it, but we faced it, and we have it under control."
And celibacy?
"There's a lot of funny stuff about celibacy," Porter said. "I'm ... obsessive-compulsive. I have three dogs and four cats, and the bishop ... doesn't approve. And my response is, well bishop, when you let me get married, I won't have to have so many pets around."
That kind of wit and wisdom has caused networks to take notice at a time when, as Christopher said, "no one's been able to crack the reality and religion genre."
"The toughest thing is always finding a character who can anchor the show, and I think they found that with Father Steve," Christopher said.
He said media professionals who have seen the footage describe Porter as morally complex and a reminder of Peter Sellers or Hugh Laurie's lead character on "House."
"What appealed to people ... is that he has such a unique perspective on these things and how to deal with them, and it's not just about `Say 10 Hail Marys and everything will be fine.' It's really about the human condition and hope," Christopher said.
Porter acknowledged that his methods may not endear him to Christian viewers who expect to hear only Bible-based preaching to the unconverted.
"The Bible is very important, but there's more to life than Scriptures, and I know the evangelicals will go crazy when they hear me say that," he said.
Perhaps. But that philosophy has driven Porter to allow Christopher total access to his ministry. They've filmed everything from man-on-the-street interviews to funerals and requests for home visits.
"I've said yeah, I'll come around," Porter said. "Can I bring a camera crew?"

Skill Level Beginner
Microsoft Word includes two powerful features that let you compare versions of a document. The first, the Legal Black Line Compare feature, compares two documents and then opens a third new document to show you the changes between the two. The two original documents are not changed. The second feature, Combine, compares changes from a number of reviewers. You use the Combine feature to incorporate revisions from different authors into one document.
So first, let's take a look at the Compare feature. On the Review tab, in the Compare group, let's choose Compare. We are going to choose a policy that we sent out for review and the policy that was returned to us from our lawyers. So, we are going to select our original document, which is the Current Policy in our Exercise Files in Chapter 12. Now, we'll Browse and go choose the Legal Review that was sent back by our attorney.
We're just going to put Legal here for how we'll label the changes. So, the Current Policy is the Original, the Legal Review is the Revised document. We are going to say OK. Word is going to compare these two documents. Here, we see the Revised Document that was sent back by Legal. Here, we can see the document that it's been compared to. There were total of 10 revisions made, 4 insertions and 6 deletions and we can easily see those. Now, we want to be able to take this document and save it, so that our internal people could review it.
When we do that, what will be saving is we will be saving this Compared Document along with all of the changes. So, we'll choose File, and we'll save this. It asks where we want to save it, and it's picking up, of course, SECTION 1 right here. We're going to say "Original Policy with comments from legal," just like that, and Save this document. So, rather than having someone look at each document and decide what's different, Word can do this for you.
Now if we wanted to, we could also simply go through this Compared Document and accept all the changes or reject them. We can proceed at that point. But let's send it out and have our internal folks review that first. I am going to close this document. We are now going to take a look at the second comparison feature. That's called Combine. Combine has a slightly different use because the assumption here is that we have different people who reviewed a document without having track changes on. It might be that we asked them to review it, and they each took a copy and made their own versions or their own changes, or it might be that at the same time one or more authors spontaneously reviewed some content.
But what they are sending you back is their finished version, not a version that includes markup. So, it's hard for us to know what it is they changed. The Combine feature will allow us to make the comparison. It will allow us to create one single document that shows everybody's proposed edits. So, let's start by choosing Combine, and then were going to choose our Original document. In this case, what we want is we want the original Story of Two Trees that's currently in our draft employee handbook, and that was created by our marketing department.
This is simply the original Draft. Now, two people have looked at this document and reviewed it. The first person who did a review of this document was Hector. So he has some edits that we'd like to incorporate. We are simply going to mark his as being changes that came from our Director of Operations, Hector. I'm going to say OK. Automatically, we create this Combined Document here, where Hector has made some specific changes, adding the word "extra fine" before olive oil, for example, updating the number of employees, because as Operations director, he has a handle on that, then adding some simple text, replacing an ampersand and so on.
So, we can save this document if we wish. So, we'll save this as our "Draft Story with Hector Edits," or we could save this as any other name we wish. Now, we are going to combine again. So, the first document we want to use in combination is the document that's currently on the screen: "Draft Story with Hector Edits." So, I'm going to Browse and select that again. We will mark this as Draft.
Then I'm going to Browse and select Maria Ann's edits and mark her's with her initials. So, now what we have is one document that shows the insertions and deletions by both Hector and Maria Ann. For example, Maria Ann suggested the addition of "a small village in central Italy." Hector suggested the insertion of "extra" in front of "fine olive oil." Items that were deleted from the Draft, for example the 3000 to 3200 change here, show as Deleted from the Draft.
But mostly, this is a conversation between Hector and Maria Ann about this document. Between the two of them, they've created a very interesting document that's a fine story that we can forward. But it's worthwhile now, since they've done their work separately, to actually take this document and save this combined result of both authors working on the document. We can then circulate that back to both authors and get their final sign-off on this before we print copies of the new employee handbook.
So, I'm going to Save this document. We'll save this as "Story with all comments." After, it's been circulated and people send me back their comments one more time, we can go through and Accept or Reject all of the comments to create our final version of this document. The Compare and Combine features are two of Word's most powerful but least used collaboration features.
Anytime you forget to turn on Track Changes, or someone spontaneously offers you a new version of a document, don't despair. You can always use either Compare or Combine to view or integrate changes from one or more authors or reviewers to create one final document.

Last updated: 11/29/2009 11:00:00 AM
I'm gonna take this chance to be up all night
I wanna fix this up just the way you like
I wanna shake the weight of the world, that's right
I gotta make the most of this old street light
And if you think I'm talking too much just tell me
If you need to change the pace then help me
We've got ten more minutes to go
I said, we've got ten more minutes before we go
[Mark: (Ref)]
There's no regrets
At least not yet
And it's safe to go
I heard it on the radio
So I'll take you home
You know I need somebody to love me yes
You know that I won't settle for second best
We gotta live like that ignore the rest
So if they all go east, then we'll go west
You know I dance my life to a different beat
And I like it here on the edge my seat
And now the stage is set, and we're alone
Where we end up later, we don't know
I take you home
Well, I take you home
And if it gets to crowded then may I suggest
That when they all go east then we'll go west
C'mon lets go, go, go
And where we end up, we dont know!
There's no regrets
At least not yet
And it's safe to go
And I heard it on the radio'

Interview will air on Tuesday's Dancing With the Stars
According to her attorney, an interview with Sara Evans is set to air on Tuesday night's episode of Dancing With the Stars explaining her abrupt exit from the show. The singer withdrew from the ABC TV dance competition after filing for divorce Thursday from her husband, Craig Schelske.
Sara has been staying in Los Angeles, where the show is filmed, but attorney John Hollins, Jr., told Nashville newspaper The Tennessean that she will return to her home just south of Music City soon. "She is doing as well as could be expected under the circumstances," he said. "She is concerned about her children."

India Minister: Adidas-Reebok Case Report Likely in 4 Months
By Romit Guha
Mumbai – The Serious Fraud Investigation Office will submit its report in about four months in a case in which Adidas AG recently alleged financial irregularities by two former executives at its Reebok India operations, a federal minister said Friday.
"We told the SFIO to give the report within four months. Perhaps they might give the report earlier than that," Veerappa Moily, the federal corporate affairs minister, told reporters on the sidelines of a conference on corporate social responsibility.
India's ministry of corporate affairs had asked SFIO, its investigating arm, to look into the case. Earlier last month, German sportswear and equipment maker Adidas filed a criminal complaint against the former chief of its India operations and another former senior employee for alleged financial and commercial irregularities.
The complaint, filed at a police station in the Delhi suburb of Gurgaon, accused the two of theft, fraud and accounting malpractices that resulted in the company taking a charge of 8.70 billion rupees.
Both executives have denied the charges in previous interviews with Indian media.

I found this video while searching on the CCBC website, and it really struck home to me. In the short time that I have been attending CCBC I have realized that the student body here comes from all different backgrounds. They may have a ton of money or they may be struggling to get by. Some may have had a bad past and are fighting to make a better future, while others have not faced many struggles at all.
Financially, not every was is gifted with the funds to pay for a college education. Many students have students loans, or use financial aid. A large portion of the student body at CCBC are busy juggling work, going to school and having a family. They know that they have a long road ahead of them but they are fighting until the end.
While I watched this video a few points stuck out to me:
- You have to be disciplined: When you are a college student you cannot just go out and blow money. Like it was said in the video, you have to know how big your pot of money is, and how to manage it. A Lot of college students do not know the concept of money, or how to manage it. For some, having nice clothes and brand new shoes every week is more important than having textbooks and school supplies.
- Step outside of your comfort zone: One of the students shown in the video didn't understand the concept of asking for help, it just wasn't what he was use to. In my opinion, stepping out of your comfort zone is a benefit to yourself.
- Do what you have to do:Don't focus on what you want, focus on what you need. Set your priorities, and focus on them. Make sure your pay your bills, take care of your family, and get your college education before you focus on what you "want".
- Get involved: Know that there are many people in the same situation as you on campus. Don't shelter yourself. Let your presence be known.
- KNOW THAT YOU CAN GET THROUGH IT: When it comes to school you have to fight until the end. Every moment you slack off is missed opportunities. Any hardships you come across in your journey will be worth it in the long run. All the things you've done without while you were in school will not matter anymore. More education = More money.
Whether you are a single parent, struggling to find a job, have a disability, to busy for school or experiencing a rough patch in life know that you can do it. CCBC offers various on campus resources that can help you! Don't live with regrets, ALWAYS strive to improve yourself. Know that many well recognized individuals came from a rough past and became a success.

Despite Weak Data, New Zealand Bank on Course to Raise Rates
New Zealand's central bank is still on course to raise interest rates next month to keep the economy from overheating, but the scope of rate increases could be limited if recent disappointing data continue.
Data out Monday showed retail sales rising 1.2% by volume in the fourth quarter from the third, below the 1.6% expected. Sales by value also rose 1.2%, versus 1.8% expected.
That follows soft housing data late last week that showed the average house price and number of transactions falling in December.
The last time the Reserve Bank of New Zealand met, in January, Gov. Graeme Wheeler left the Official Cash Rate on hold at a record low of 2.5% but cited "a need to return interest rates to more normal levels" given the "considerable momentum" in the economy.
Despite the recent data, money markets are still pricing in a 94% chance of a rate increase in March, unchanged from last week. Economists expect the cash rate to be at 3.5% by December.
"Fundamentally, there is a lot to keep driving household expenditure higher – including booming employment, high consumer confidence and a seriously rebounding residential construction sector," said Craig Ebert, senior economist at Bank of New Zealand.
But the household spending data shows "consumers demonstrating restraint, which should have material implications for the degree of tightening required by the RBNZ," J.P. Morgan Economist Ben Jarman said.
The central bank has said interest rates will have to rise if curbs on mortgage lending imposed last October don't slow the housing market. But data last Friday from the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand showed the national median home price fell to 402,000 New Zealand dollars (US$338,000) in January from NZ$427,000 in December. The number of dwellings sold fell 17% in January from December.
J.P. Morgan's Mr. Jarman said the bank had expected any moderation in house prices to show up only later, but "as it stands, house price inflation has delivered more than 80% of the moderation expected this year, within only a few months."
ASB Economist Daniel Smith said consumer attitudes – such as the willingness to use home equity to fund consumption – are "almost certainly more cautious than before the global financial crisis." Still, he said an improving labor market, population growth and consumer confidence all point to stronger retail sales growth going forward.
"With pricing pressures slowly on the rise and the economy continuing to accelerate, we expect a gradual series of OCR hikes to start in March," Mr. Smith said.

ISLAMABAD: A senior official of the capital development authority (CDA) of Islamabad said that available statistics shows that residents of the city waste 15 percent of the total water, which is not only alarming but a matter of concern.
"Water is the most precious gift of nature and the most important substance on earth. Being our religious responsibility, we should use water wisely to avoid its wastage. The CDA is striving hard to meet the water requirements of residents of the federal capital," Member Engineering and Environment, Sanaullah Aman said this while addressing to audience of an event organised in connection with World Water Day by CDA in collaboration with the GSIS said.
He said in order to cope with growing demand of water, CDA has not only initiated work on the project to repair and maintenance plan of water supply pipelines but also working on a plan to supply water to Islamabad from Indus River.

Crestliner Serves Up a Fisherman's Delight
Tested by Capt. Bob Smith
Crestliner spoke to many of their customers and to their professional fishing team to make some changes for this year's version. One of the most notable is the deck on this model, which is now higher and gives you added casting area, and also more room to stuff extra tackle in the boxes up front. The gear boxes along the port side up front now allow you to line up several Plano type boxes, where you can quickly recognize the one you need and not lose precious time digging for lures.
The peak offers a removable navigation light with a task light built into the back for seeing at night without killing your vision. The trolling motor can be mounted along the port side at the bow with the outlet and main engine trim switch in the break of the peak up front to starboard. More storage boxes are to the starboard side of the forward casting deck. Down the center is a spot for a casting chair between the two smaller boxes and a cavernous center rod locker with a lower battery safe for the trolling motor under it.
Cockpit Features
The cockpit area is kept to the minimum to make sure you have the added space you'll need on the casting decks. The seating is made up of three seats, with the center back folding down to become a step instead of walking on the cushions. Just behind the center seat in the forward part of the stern casting deck is a 26-gallon aerated livewell. Storage boxes bracket this livewell so you can keep some of the tackle back here while fishing. A long locker allows access to critical components in the stern mechanical well. You can put one of the casting chairs or a butt chair back here when casting as well. The broad Extruded Gunnel System gives you plenty of room to add rod holders, install trolling rigging, or just a good edge for using when boarding from the side.
Crestliner's CMV 1850 measures 18'1" overall with a maximum beam width of 95" all the way to the transom. She has a maximum hull depth of 33" with a maximum cockpit depth of 21". The CMV 1850 weighs in at 1,300 lbs. and carries up to 41 gallons of fuel. She can also handle up to a 150-hp outboard on the transom.
The CMV 1850 was a smooth driving machine responding well at speed and throughout the test run. On our test we achieved a top speed of 52 mph turning 5400 rpm, which burned about 19.5 gph. At 2500 rpm we found she ran most economically at 20.5 mph, burning 3.6 gph. The 1850 was also quick to get on plane, producing a hole shot of only 2.8 seconds, and was zipping along passing 30 mph in just over six seconds. Sound levels were pretty typical of bass boats starting at 81 dBa at 2500 rpm and topping 93 dBa at top speed.
Crestliner spent a lot of time and research on the needs of their customers to ultimately deliver a solid, responsive, and stable fish fighting rig. This care shows through with the quality and features this boat has to offer, and finally the performance she delivers.

Family marks 48 years since girl's abduction
Elizabeth Ann Gill abducted while playing in front yard of home
Forty-eight years after Elizabeth Ann Gill was abducted while playing in the front yard of her southeast Missouri home, her relatives believe she is still alive.
Thursday marked the anniversary of the abduction in Cape Girardeau. Elizabeth was 2 at the time.
Her family told KFVS-TV they believe that Elizabeth was put up for adoption on the black market and is likely still alive. Her sister, Martha Hamilton, and others close to the family spent Thursday mailing out flyers with photos showing what Elizabeth might look like at age 50.
While relatives believe Elizabeth is alive, they doubt she has any memory of her family in Cape Girardeau because she was so young at the time of the abduction.

Citigroup Study Shows Asian Rich Topping North American
The number of Asians with at least $100 million in disposable assets overtook North America's tally for the first time as the world's "economic center of gravity" continued moving east, Citigroup Inc.'s private bank said.
There were 18,000 "centa-millionaires" in Southeast Asia, China and Japan at the end of 2011, compared with 17,000 in North America and 14,000 in Western Europe, the bank said today in The Wealth Report 2012, published in partnership with Knight Frank LLP.
The world economy's center of gravity has moved from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean in 1980 to a point near the Suez Canal today, the report said, citing calculations by Danny Quah of the London School of Economics. The International Monetary Fund in January cut its forecast for 2012 global growth to 3.3 percent, while saying the 27 countries of developing Asia may grow by 7.3 percent.
"The number and concentration of centa-millionaires accentuates the trajectory of current global wealth flows," James Lawson, director at Ledbury Research, said in the report. "Trends seen in this wealth bracket are likely to be replicated in lower wealth tiers in years to come."
Li Ka-Shing, Asia's richest man, had a net worth of about $24.8 billion yesterday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index ranking the world's 20 wealthiest individuals. Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of India's Reliance Industries Ltd., ranked second with $23.6 billion.
Art, Wine, Sports
The shift of wealth to the east may fuel investment in art, wine and sports from Asia, according to the report. Greater interest in art investments was expressed last year by a net 32 percent of the region's holders of more than $25 million, and interest in wine rose 29 percent.
"When it comes to investments of passion, it seems that Asia-Pacific could be the region to watch," the report said. "At a time of turmoil in the markets, art, wine and sport look like steady investments, routinely outperforming indices such as the FTSE 100."
Valuations of the Indian Premier League, the country's domestic cricket franchise, also show increased interest in sports, the report says.
When the first eight IPL teams were sold in 2007, to businessmen including Ambani and Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, they raised a combined $750 million, according to the report. When two additional teams joined in 2011, they brought in a total of more than $700 million.
Fernandes Buys QPR
Other Asians investing in sport include Tony Fernandes, chief executive officer of Malaysia's AirAsia Bhd., who bought a 66 percent stake in English soccer's Premier League club Queens Park Rangers in August. He is also involved in Formula One as the head of Team Lotus.
China will pass the U.S. to become the largest economy by 2020 and will be overtaken by India in 2050, according to Citigroup research in the report.
In 2010, the number of centa-millionaires in Southeast Asia, China and Japan was 16,000, the same as in North America, and ahead of 13,000 in Western Europe, Grainne Gilmore, head of U.K. residential research at Knight Frank, said in a telephone interview from London on March 26. Asia's tally will rise to 26,000 in 2016, followed by 21,000 in North America and 15,000 in Western Europe, the report predicts.
There's a wide wealth disparity in countries such as India and China where the absolute number of millionaires is large, Debashish Duttagupta, head of investment for Asia-Pacific wealth management at Citigroup, said in a Bloomberg Television interview in Hong Kong today. As a percentage of the population, the wealthy are a small fraction in these countries, he said.
"Which is why Asia is likely to remain one of the strongest growing wealth regions in the world for some time to come," he said.

Aamir: Killing of SMJ participant 'disturbing'
The couple, who married against the wishes of their parents, had featured on 'Satyamev Jayate'.
Bulandshahr: Actor Aamir Khan, the former host of the popular television series 'Satyamev Jayate', has expressed his grief on the suspected honour killing of one of the participants of the show in Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahr.
"Disturbing and unfortunate incident. Will speak to the government authorities in UP to help and ensure the family is safe. The culprits must be brought to the book. The case is registered on the basis of right facts," Khan said about the killing of Abdul Hakim.
The 28-year-old man was killed earlier this week in Bulandshahr and his wife claims her family was behind the murder. Speaking to CNN-IBN, she also said that she feared for her life. "They have killed my husband, they will kill me now. I am 9 months pregnant. My husband would have been alive if police protection was provided," the woman, Mehwish, said. But the police have dismissed her theory saying it was the outcome of a personal feud.
The couple, who married against the wishes of their parents, had featured on an episode of Khan's television show 'Satyamev Jayate'.

have old Series E bonds. The government supplied table
(by the treasury) doesn't give actual rates of earnings,
only redemption values, and interest, is there another
source of info to determine actual rate, and APR of
bonds issued in 04/57 and 07/63,07/64.
rates on the Series E Savings Bonds that you own were
fixed until the Treasury went on a market-based formula
starting November 1982. I don't know what your initial
rates are for the bonds purchased April 1957, July 1963
and July 1964, but I requested the data from the Federal
Reserve Bank, Savings Bond Division, in Buffalo, New
York. I walked over to the New York Fed today and they
said everything is now processed in Buffalo. I also
wrote to the Treasury Department. The phone line didn't
get me any live people.
I requested
Tables of redemption Values, the Guaranteed Minimum Rate
Chart, Semiannual Interest Rate Bulleting, the Treasury
Circular on Public Debt Securities 1-80 (31CFRPart 351).
Also, a list of the semiannual rates since they went on
the market-based program if not included in the above.
I received some
savings bond data from the Federal Reserve Bank. Your
bonds that were purchased in April 1957, July 1963, and
July 1964, had their maturities extended to forty years
from issue date. The bonds will cease accruing interest
after their respective extended maturity dates.
This information
has been taken from the November 1995 (i) Tables of
Redemption Values and (ii) United States Savings Bonds
Earnings Report from the Department of the Treasury
Bureau of the Public Debt. I ran the numbers through a
yield calculation program and came up with the yields
shown below.
We are assuming
$100 face value purchased at a cost of $75 on the first
days of the month listed. Redemption Values as of
February 1, 1996
1957 bond: Redemption Value $738.32. Yield from purchase
date is 6.03%.
1963 bond: Redemption Value $581.40. Yield from purchase
date 6.40%
1994 bond: Redemption value $571.32. Yield from purchase
date 6.55%.
These bonds have
gone through various interest changes over their lives
and since November 1, 1982; the interest rate has been
based on 85% of the 5-Year Treasury bond rate, reset
every May and November first. The five-year rate is
listed below. For bonds issued after May 1, 1989 the
rate is rounded to the nearest .01 or basis point or
1/100th of 1 percentage point. Prior to that date the
rate is rounded to the nearest quarter of 1%. Thus, the
five year long term savings bond rate for the six month
period effective November 1, 1995 is 5.16%, 85% of the
5-year Treasury rate of 6.08%. I come up with 5.17% but
the Treasury maybe has a difference rounding mechanism.

wife and I would like to give our new niece a US Savings
Bond. Any recommendations? She is 2 months old and we
are looking for something she can redeem at 18+ yrs old.
Interest is taxable either annually or taxes can
be deferred until the bond is cashed in. There is an
education feature that allows the interest to be
excluded from taxable income if the bond owner pays
tuition and fees at qualified educational institutions.
However, the exclusion applies only to the taxpayer, his
or her spouse, and any legal dependent. Also, only bonds
issued in the name of a person who was 24 or older can
be used for the exclusion. Bonds issued in the name of a
child as owner or co owner are not eligible. This looks
as though it leaves you out.
information ought to be available at your local library
or bank. One thing however, since the niece has about 18
years until college, why not consider an equity mutual
fund or possibly a balanced fund. Equities have proven
to have greater returns than savings bonds over an
extended period of time.
need your help to screen the authenticity on the us

bonds with 8 1/4 percent interest coupons. Is there any
way to verify the serial numbers, cusip numbers by
getting on line or call a phone number to us securities
or Federal Reserve or any other dept that carries such
A CUSIP number refers to the identification of a
bond issue. Serial numbers refer to the numbers assigned
to the particular pieces of paper for the bind issue. If
you need help in authenticating a bond, namely the 8
1/4s of 2005, then go to the local Federal Reserve Bank
and bring the bond certificates. They can check to see
if these are counterfeits or not. Certainly the Fed, as
agent for the Treasury, will be able to verify serial
number on particular bond paper.
I doubt if this can be done over the telephone.
You will probably find it necessary to present yourself
and you bond paper in person.

just got married and received a $500 bond. What I'd like
to know is:
How long do I hang on to these until
"mature"? (& What exactly does that mean)
What is the current value (if any?)
Do they earn any payable interest yearly?
Any other general info you can give me, as I'm
wholly unfamiliar with savings bonds.
Your $500 U.S. Series EE Savings Bonds was
purchased at 50% of its face amount or $250.
There are two
maturity dates for the bonds. The original maturity is
17 years after the issue date and the final maturity is
30 years after issuance. Because savings bonds earn a
market rate of interest, it is not certain when it will
reach its face value. However, if the market rate of
interest is not sufficient for a bond to reach face
value in 17 years, then the US Treasury will make a
one-time adjustment to increase the redemption value to
face value.
These bonds do
NOT pay interest. Interest accrues until redemption or
maturity. For the first five years it earns a short-term
rate of interest, which is 85% of the 6-month US
Treasury bill yield. A new rate is effective each
November and May first and reflects the markets rates
for the August, September and October period and the
February, March and April period, as applicable.
Long-term rates
are earned after five years and reflect 85% of the
five-year Treasury bond year for the same periods as
noted above. Interest is ADDED to the face value of the
bond at those May and November 1st dates AND IS NOT PAID
OUT SEMI-ANNUALLY. When you redeem you bond you will get
the value of the bond as of the last interest crediting
date. Bond cashed in between the scheduled interest
accrual dates do not get the accrued interest for the
interim period.
You say that you
just received the bond. Therefore, if issued prior to
November 1, 1995, your $500 face amount bond is worth
approximately $256.60. If issued on or after November 1,
1995, the bond is only worth $250. You must confirm
these figures at a financial institution. They have be
obtained from sources believed to be reliable but not
guaranteed by me.
If you cash in
the bond, you will owe federal income taxes on the
interest. You may elect to defer the tax until the bond
is cashed in or reaches final maturity.
rates are on the rise. Do you see a short-term turn
around with the bond market that rates could achieve a
7% again? How long, this coming week or are we looking
at months?
I am not nor have I ever been in the business of
forecasting interest rates. It seems to be a futile
effort. In the bond business I feel that one should be
concerned with the relative values of the bonds, one
against the other rather than taking short-term
speculative ins and outs where one often gets whipsawed.
Each year the Wall Street Journal reports on the
prognostications of eminent economists covering the
economy and interest rates and the record is viewed as
lousy by most. Maybe the average of them is better and
there is a service that does just that.
But today I have
dusted off my old swami's crystal ball and looked into
the near future. I feel that we will not hit the 7%
level on the long guy (about 6.40% close on Friday) in
the next two or three months. I feel that it is more
likely than not that the Fed will drop rates a notch at
the next meeting towards month's end and that a stab for
under 6.20% is possible.
are the safest bonds with a fair return?
I will go on the assumption that you mean by
"safe" that the bond is free from credit risk.
I will also assume that by "fair" you mean
average compared with other current yields; neither too
low or too high. I place the emphasis on the safe or
quality angle.
All bonds are subject to various risks such as
credit risk, reinvestment risk, price change or market
risk caused by fluctuating interest rates. But the
safest from a credit perspective are the bonds and other
obligations issued by the US Treasury. The shorter
maturity issues usually have less market rate risk than
longer maturities. The zero coupon issues (bills and
STRIPS) don't have reinvestment risk since there is no
interest to reinvest. Since they are all subject to
interest rate movements, they have price risk with the
non-interest bearing issues subject to greater
volatility than their comparable maturity counterparts.
Series EE savings bonds don't have market risk, as
they are not marketable. You can redeem them after six
months if you need funds but they can't be sold in the
securities markets, as can other Treasury issues. One
could say the yield is fair for these, neither lousy or
super. Interest for the first five years is at the rate
of 85% of the 6-month Treasury bill yield and at 85% of
the five year Treasury bond rate thereafter to maturity
or redemption. A new interest rate is effective each May
and November first.
If Series EE bonds aren't for you then may want to
consider T-bonds in the two to five year range yielding
in the 5.40% to 5.60% range. This seems fair in my
opinion. Certificates of deposit at federally insured
banks will pay about 10 basis points more. These CDs are
insured by the Government in deposit amounts up to
$100,000. Interest on the Treasury bonds is exempt from
state income taxes. Which investment is better for you?
You have to decide if you want a marketable security or
a unmarketable CD. You must take into account the tax
consideration and transaction costs. Treasury bonds can
be purchased on the auction dates through the local
Federal Reserve Bank. If interested, call the FED. Look
in the Articles section of Bondsonline for the Treasury
Direct phone numbers.
am looking for up to the minute bond market yield
changes. Have searched the net, but can't find anything.
I was looking for the employment figures that came out
this A.M. so I could determine if the yields on the long

Please view the
Bondsonline Quote/Search section. For employment
figures, you may want to try looking at the Federal
Reserve sites on the Internet. They may provide that
purchased bonds in 1986. When will they mature?
What is their interest rate?
Your Series EE US Savings Bond has an original
maturity of 30 years. Thus the bonds purchased in 1986
mature and cease to accrue interest in 2016 unless the
Treasury changes the terms. However, you can redeem the
bonds at any time.
The current
interest rate from November 1, 1995 through the end of
April 1996 is 6.08%. However, for bonds issued prior to
May 1, 1989, the rate is rounded to the nearest 1/4 of
1%. Thus it makes the rate on your bonds 6.00%.
If your bonds were issued in Nov or Dec 1986, then the $50 face
amount bond is worth $43.52. If purchased in October,
then $48.50. If April through Sept $50.32, and January
through March, $52.22. The original purchase price of
the $50 face amount was $25.00

treasury security yields/prices?
Does the Federal Reserve
access the Internet?
you recommend software that will compute the present
value of Series E and EE Savings Bonds, if you tell it
the issue date and face value of the bond?
are zeros and what type of investment goals are they
good for?
Zero Coupon Bonds are those issued without any
periodic interest payments or coupon. They are sold at a
discount from par value with the amount of the discount
representing the interest due on the investment. The
amount of the discount is a factor of the length of time
to final maturity and the prevailing level of interest
Most bonds have
reinvestment risk, i.e., you do not know at what
interest rate levels you will be able to reinvest the
coupon payments. Since a zero coupon bond does not have
any interest to reinvest, you don't have reinvestment
When you buy a
zero such as a US Treasury STRIP (zero) you know what
you will end up with. No need to worry about
reinvestment. They are good investments for those who
need a certain amount at a future date and do not need
current income. You pay $X now and get par in the
future. Corporate, Treasury and other taxable zeros he
are best for tax deferred investors such as 401-Ks,
IRAs, pension plans, etc. Tax-exempt municipal zeros are
good for taxable investors. You see, the interest that
you DO NOT receive every year on a taxable zero is
considered taxable income. It is an OID, original issue
discount. Thus, you pay taxes on no incoming cash flow.
It represents a cash outflow. Tax-exempt muni zeros do
not have the taxes on "phantom" current
Zeros are most
attractive when interest rates are high since you lock
in a return to maturity or first call. Check the call
provisions carefully. Many taxable zeros are only
callable at par. But some and many muni issues are
callable at the accreted value, which is the issue price
plus the accrued and unpaid interest. In some cases
there may be a small call premium.
Investigate before you invest. Remember, there is
no such thing as a free lunch.

the fact that all transactions are by mail only, when
it's possible to buy treasuries at issue at a nominal

You may think
TreasuryDirect is a bother but obviously many others
don't have the same feeling. In fact, existing customers
of Treasury Direct can transact business three
different ways: mail, automated phone service (800
722-2678) and on the web (www.treasurydirect.gov).
Some investors may not want
to pay even a small fee. Others may not have brokerage
accounts at Vanguard or Fidelity. People do many things
that others may not think are rational. However, the
heart has its reasons.
It doesn't
matter to me if they buy from a full service firm, a
discount brokerage, Treasury Direct, or from their
bother-in-law. The psychology of these people is a whole
other issue.

Credit Card Hardship Letter
Mark Zurich
General Manager
PBC Credit Card Corporation
67, Charlie Street, Northern London
15th July 2012
Sub- Credit card hardship letter
Dear Mr. Mark
I am writing this letter to request you to restructure my credit card debts because of the intense financial hardship that I am suffering. I have lost my lost my well paid job eight months back as the company went bankrupt. I have been searching for a new job since then but till now I have not been able to find one. I request you kindly increase the repayment period of the credit card debt. It will become easier for me to pay a small monthly installment even if I get a low salary job. In case the credit card debt is not restricted the possibilities are high that it might get defaulted. I am currently paying the installments from my past savings but it will soon get exhausted if I do not get a new job in the next few months.
I will wait for a positive response from your side. Please inform me in case you require any further information from my behalf. I would like to thank you for taking your time out to consider my application.
Yours Sincerely
John Dell

Profit-before-people business bedevils fight against addiction in SA
By Llewellyn Kriel, Editor in Chief – The AAC. (Pro Bono)
WHILE the severity of the massive and mushrooming nationwide scourge of addiction is acknowledged by South Africa's public and private sectors and most ordinary citizens, no comprehensive and reliable research exists to even benchmark how to begin addressing the crisis.
"Everyone knows there is a problem. Everyone pledges to address it. Virtually everyone in the country knows someone affected by addiction in one or other of its myriad forms. But nobody has the vaguest idea of the size of it or let alone how to start combating it. While our laws still do not acknowledge gambling, sex and pornography as addictions, the consciousness around the issue remains primitive and prevention methods ineffective," says Warren Whitfield, founder of The Addiction Action Campaign.
The AAC recently staged a peaceful protest demonstration outside the Sandton headquarters of brewery giant, SAB Miller, to hand over memorandums to representatives of the alcohol, tobacco, pharmaceutical, gambling and pornography industries. Despite being directly and individually invited to accept their memorandums, not a single representative – aside from Vincent Maphai, CEO of SAB Miller – could be bothered. None even tendered an apology.
"This, tragically, is symptomatic of a pervasive devil-may-care attitude within the 'addiction industry'. Profits are invariably put ahead of people," says Whitfield, who condemned the lack of sensitivity – even callousness – towards the reality and tragedy of addiction. "They all cite 'personal responsibility' as the problem whilst almost denying any corporate accountability."
"Leaders who should know better prefer to deliberately ignore the problem or fob off an increasingly anxious public with grandiose marketing gestures under the guise of corporate social investment," says Whitfield, who is at pains to emphasise that the AAC does not oppose the legitimacy or rights of these industries to profitable business practices.
"We do, however, demand that these companies plough back an appropriate portion of their vast profits into preventing addiction, treatment and investing in reducing the harm their legitimate practices cause. The fact that we know so little about the extent and severity of the crisis in South Africa is ample proof of how incredibly ignorant the very industries that breed addiction are about the harm they cause."
With only SABMiller showing any sensitivity to the crisis of alcoholism in SA, which has dubious distinction of having highest level of foetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) in the world, the AAC has condemned the "ignorance, deliberate neglect and callous insensitivity" of:
The Tobacco Institute of Southern Africa,
Pharmaceutical Industry Association of SA,
Innovative Medicines of South Africa,
National Association of Pharmaceutical Manufactures,
Self Medication Manufacturers Association of South Africa,
National Gambling Board,
National Responsible Gambling,
JT Publishing (Hustler),
Adult World,
The Industry Association for Responsible Alcohol Use (ARA),
SA Liquor Brand Owner's Association,
Douglas Green Bellingham,
E Snell & Co,
The Really Great Brand Company,
Wine Cellars SA,
Tsogo Sun Group,
Casino Association of South Africa.
"In our discussions with these companies and industry groups, we've been gobsmacked by levels of ignorance about the size and devastating effects of addiction and the arrogant apathy towards finding lasting solutions to the underlying problems. They either claim no such problem exists – as did Joe Theron, publisher of "Hustler" – throw up their arms in impotence or cower behind the irresponsible assertion that they are doing nothing illegal," says Whitfield.
"Without extensive, well-funded and scientific research projects to try to understand the extent of addiction in all its forms and what is and is not addictive behaviour, current efforts at rehabilitation and encouraging responsible behaviour, vital as these are, are tantamount to addressing HIV/Aids or cancer with a couple of aspirin."
The AAC are endorsed by NEHAWU, and with their own current membership of around 5000, will take their cause to the High Court and the Constitutional Court to request a ruling on the legitimacy of profiting from addiction.
"We must always remember that the fundamental difference between people who enjoy alcohol, gambling, pornography and even tobacco and use pharmaceutical products in the ways in which they were intended, and addicts, is that addicts cannot control their behaviour and in almost all cases, do not want to be using the substance or service that they are addicted to. Our essential position is then that it is unethical, immoral and, indeed, illegal to profit from people who cannot help themselves. If you profit from addiction, then you are enabling it. And if you are enabling it, then you are causing harm," says Whitfield.

WAIT UNTIL DARK is an innovative, highly entertaining and suspenseful thriller about a blind housewife, Susy Hendrix (Audrey Hepburn). Independent and resourceful, Susy is learning to cope with her blindness, aided by her difficult, slightly unreliable young neighbor Gloria (Julie Herrod) with whom she has an exasperated but lovingly maternal relationship. Susy's life is changed as she is terrorized by a group of criminals who believe she has hidden a baby doll used by them to smuggle heroin into the country. Unknown to Susy, her photographer husband Sam (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) took the doll as a favor for a woman he met on an international plane flight and unwittingly brought the doll to the couple's New York apartment when the woman became afraid of the customs officials.
Alone in her apartment and cut-off from the outside world, Susy must fight for her life against a gang of ruthless criminals, led by the violent, psychotic Roat (Alan Arkin). The tension builds as Roat, aided by his gang, impersonates police officers and friends of her husband in order to win Susy's confidence, gaining access to her apartment to look for the doll. The climax of the film, a violent physical confrontation between Susie and Roat in her dark kitchen, is one of the most memorable and frightening scenes in screen history. All performances are outstanding, particularly those of Audrey Hepburn who plays a vulnerable, but self-reliant woman, and Alan Arkin, in perhaps his best role, as the ruthless, manipulative Roat.

"Imagine a vertical pole, the vertical pole representing God, or reality. This symbolizes a unified whole. We split this pole lengthwise, thus we have two poles. We take the one we have split off away and lay it across the vertical pole to create a horizontal or lateral pole. Now we have the picture of a cross. By splitting the vertical pole and laying one pole across we have laid one half of the unified whole in exact opposition to the vertical or God pole. All the lateral pole contains must now, of necessity, as well be opposed to God, or the vertical pole. This lateral pole depicts our world, our view of reality. A reality which is no more real, for it is not more whole. It depicts our separation from Oneness. What is not real must be unreal, as a dream is unreal form the vista of one in the waking state. So this world we know, in which we breathe and live; a world split from is whole. It is this lateral pole we misinterpret. If we did not see it falsely, then the lateral pole would upright itself in our perception, would realign itself with the vertical pole and become One with it again. But being as it is, our perception of reality is at cross purposes with reality, so we see it as separate from it can across. So the lateral pole becomes the world of illusion or altered state of mind--the altered Ego. This point needs to be clearly understood: The lateral axis itself is not the illusion, only its lateral position is; that is, our perception of it as being separate from the vertical pole. We have thus formed a cross to which we nailed ourselves. We crucified ourselves. Nobody else did this to us."

You are here to create reality, not to continue status quo. You are here to grow in knowledge, philosophy, and then in truth. You are here to live, and not be afraid of life. You are here to use your brain to create thoughts and to conquer your ignorance.
What happens when a person becomes enlightened? They conquer their ignorance. What does that mean?
That means they develop their Spirit rather than their altered ego, their personality, their body. And they work everyday in embodiment of that (spirit) energy. They don't ever really grow old. They have dynamic energy.
They can create and their level of acceptance is extraordinary.
New age is not new age; it is forever age. What it means is being greater than your body, greater than your prejudice and greater than your lack." – Ramtha
