Well the big names socialite and one time friend of former President Bill Clinton has dropped her United States citizenship.
It's just the latest -- -- wave of wealthy folks slashing their tax bill by cutting ties to America.
This latest case involves Denise Rich she's a Grammy nominated songwriter and longtime democratic donor.
-- ex husband -- the billionaire trader Marc Rich who was indicted in the 1980s when -- including fraud and illegal dealings with Iran.
President Clinton pardoned him on his last day of office an attorney for Denise Rich says she's turned in -- US passport so she can be closer to her family in Europe.
But financial experts say it could also save -- tens of millions of dollars in US Texas.
Trace Gallagher live in the west with seven new -- exactly how much money she gonna say.
Well you know she -- money a couple of ways you have one Austria is an hour she's a citizen and Austria doesn't tax worldwide income the same way the United States -- -- -- tens of millions of dollars.
As well as the fact that Austria's tax rate is much lower than the United States that she still owns more than a hundred million dollars in property in the US.
And back in 2008 congress passed an exit tax which would take 15% of her net worth.
But experts think she restructure is -- assets into foreign.
Contracts that she could mitigate for tax base there as well -- And it -- -- phrase this this is a bit of a trend here it looks like.
Yes and some say that it might be related to the economy because if you look at the numbers it has gone up dramatically in recent years and we look back at this chart in just the past four years.
The number of people giving up their passports has gone up 700%.
And they expected to rise again this year.
Among the best known ex pats are FaceBook co-founder Eduardo Severin as well as John -- is the third he's the -- to the Campbell's soup.
Fortune but the conservative Cato Institute does not think a better economy is gonna help this listen to them.
Stronger economies can increase the value of your portfolio.
So ultimately this is an issue of the American tax code.
Being extremely unfriendly to wealth creation.
And that's driving -- People out of the country that we should want in the country because of their ability to deploy all that all those -- -- to create jobs.
He had just an example Eduardo -- that co-founder of FaceBook could save anywhere between 65 and 75 million dollars by giving up.
His residency.
Well Trace Gallagher in Los Angeles straight thanks.

Planning for WildfiresThe APA Research Department has completed a cooperative agreement with the National Wildland/Urban Interface Fire Program to conduct research and prepare a PAS Report on planning for wildfires. This agreement furthers a partnership between APA and NWUIFP that began in 2002 when APA undertook a contract to perform an assessment of the national Firewise Communities training program, which the National Fire Protection Association has managed since 1999 in cooperation with the National Wildland/Urban Interface Fire Program. The completed report, Firewise Post-Workshop Assessment Final Report, is available from NFPA. Background In the past decade, wildfires have gained the attention of urban planners as a serious issue facing development in what has come to be known as the wildland/urban interface, the area where residential development is interspersed amid various kinds of forest topography. The issue is not merely a western one — Florida, Long Island, the Upper Midwest, and other areas have experienced serious devastation from wildfires. In highly populated states like Florida and California, population growth has driven new development beyond existing metropolitan areas into the interface, forcing hard questions about the nature and design of new subdivisions. APA examined strategic points of intervention where better planning can help reduce the vulnerability of new development as well as provide better assessments of the suitability of such areas for any kind of development. The Project APA's research focused on two primary issues: (a) best practices in development design for wildfire hazard areas; and (b) comprehensive plan considerations for communities facing wildfire hazards. Specific areas of research concern for this project included:
This project undertook a comprehensive look at how communities can minimize the loss of life and property from wildfires through development regulations, standards for proposal review, special building codes in wildfire hazard areas, and other devices available in the planner's toolbox.

I use this. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...-_-Product
Its a full sized keyboard, which is nice. It has a low profile so I can slide it under the edge of the couch. I only need to pull it out when I'm moving files around or browsing on the interweb. The wireless works pretty well too. I have no problems lounging on the couch 10 feet away from the tv.

I have one of these Ipazz things connected to my windows 7 HTPC.
http://www.amazon.com/2-4GHz-Wireless-Mi...386&sr=8-1 90% of the duties on my HTPC is performed with my MCE remote but when i need to type something I just grab this thing. The nice thing is, it is small. One drawback, no TAB key. It feels cheap and flimsey but works just fine. Like I said... using a remote control is the way to go but when you need to type something its handy to have a wireless keyboard handy. And if you are going to have a wireless keyboard you might as well get something small. |

"What's that Ann Romney just said about tuna fish?" That question came up during Mrs. Romney's much-heralded Tuesday night address, which, depending how you feel about Condoleezza Rice, might have been the biggest hit in Tampa this week. In her red dress, with her broad smile, Romney showed why she has been such a campaign asset this year: She's sincere and warm and comfortable with crowds, she likes people, she loves her husband. And then she ruined it all by pretending she once was poor.

It was a celebration of movies and acting in NYC last night at the Gotham Independent Film Awards. Ryan Reynolds hit the red carpet solo looking dapper in his vest while Brooke Shields stood close to Rosie Perez and Alec Baldwin posed with Richard Kind. Alec recently said he would be retiring from acting in a couple of years, but first he's out to promote It's Complicated out this month. He also has a big award show to host this season when he and Steve Martin take on the Oscars together. Natalie Portman showed some skin — get her look here — before being honored during the show just days before her new film, Brothers, hits theaters.
The night's big winner was The Hurt Locker while Stanley Tucci was also one of the night's honorees along with Portman. Chris Rock came out to support his documentary Good Hair, though the prize went to Food, Inc. The night was full of laughs as Meryl Streep entertained, and Sam Rockwell made funny faces with Patricia Clarkson who took the podium. Award season is underway as we start to get an idea of what lies in store for the nominations and shows yet to come.

The iconic running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain came to a screeching halt at the University of Utah.
"It looks like he's getting gored," said Robin Perely.
The 'he' is Junior Ute Patrick Eccles.
"Do you know who that is? I know of him" said Ute Alex Little.
"I recognize that last name, yes," said Dan Swink.
Even for those who don't know Patrick, the thought of him being horned by a bull was alarming. A video released from Spain shows one of the other three men being attacked.
"Run of the bulls is an interesting tradition. I hope he's ok. I wouldn't have done it. I don't know that looks really painful," said Heather Mahler.
"There is a big animal that's got it's horn in his belly in Patrick's belly," said Perley.
People from all walks of life joined Patrick to be in Pamplona, Spain in the middle of all the action. It was a decision that put all of their lives in danger.
"Just someone trying to live his life and being an adrenaline junkie," said Little.
"I'm thinking poor guy I hope he's got health insurance," said Perley.
ABC 4 Utah is still working to get more information about Eccles and his current condition.

By Drew Brooks Staff writer
In a third-floor lab on Duke University's campus, Assistant Professor Kenneth Morton explains how research is helping to improve the mine detectors used by soldiers in Afghanistan.
A collection of aged explosives, similar to what research is helping to uncover overseas, sits behind the projector screen in the otherwise nondescript room in Duke's Center for Interdisciplinary Engineering, Medicine and Applied Sciences.
The disarmed mortars and other military-grade weapons are helping researchers at Duke develop software that can more accurately detect hidden bombs in a split second.
The lab also is developing camera technology that could recognize changes in the landscape, pinpointing potential hiding places for the bombs.
"It's a game we're fighting," Morton said. "They're trying to beat us, and we're trying to beat them."
The research - led by Professor Leslie Collins and involving Morton, another assistant professor and nearly a dozen graduate students - wouldn't be possible without funding from the Department of Defense.
Across the state, researchers at all of North Carolina's major universities are leveraging defense dollars to fund research with military applications. Funding at some schools has increased significantly during the past decade of war.
"The work that research universities do to support our military has never been more important," N.C. State Chancellor Randy Woodson said on his school's Military Appreciation Day last fall.
Using defense funding, N.C. State is studying the breeds of dog best suited to detect roadside bombs. It also is working on developing a surface that can make ships barnacle-proof, saving fuel and cleaning costs, and studying which materials best protect humans from heat and flame.
Many of the research projects have potential uses outside the military.
At Duke, Drs. Chris Woods and Micah McClain hope their military-funded research will eventually lead to better diagnoses of disease in general.
The pair is developing a test that may be able to detect illnesses long before any symptoms manifest themselves.
"It's a great example of collective work between the military and a top-level research institution," Woods said. "We are on the cusp of changing the way a lot of diagnoses are made."
Woods' research began in the middle of the last decade, in response to a request from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA.
Woods said his research could help prevent soldiers with infectious diseases from deploying and could keep soldiers who may soon suffer serious medical symptoms from going on patrol.
But it's the nonmilitary application that really excites him.
"The downstream benefit to practical medicine is potentially huge," he said. "It's a great public benefit."
At the University of North Carolina's main campus in Chapel Hill, officials said researchers are using Pentagon money to study post-traumatic stress in veterans and its connection to criminal behavior, as well as the psychological impact of war on military spouses. Other researchers at UNC are using military dollars to study cancer-causing stem cells.
At Fayetteville State University, defense dollars for research amount to nearly $800,000, with another $815,537 projected in grant funding through 2017, FSU spokesman Jeff Womble said.
Those projects include the genetic mapping of seeds to help learn how to grow healthier soybeans, which could reduce the risk of breast cancer, prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease.
The military funding boosts more than just research budgets.
At UNC-Chapel Hill, officials partnered with Army Special Operations Command to create a new degree program for veteran medics.
The physician assistant master's degree program will enroll its first class in 2015, aiming to build on extensive medical training already received by Special Forces medics.
FSU also has used military funding to develop a new graduate degree.
The university's master's program in social work is for soldiers at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. Fayetteville State also is developing a certificate in geospatial intelligence - the collection of information through satellite imagery, aircraft and other mediums - for its main campus.
While not all universities could provide the total amount of defense funding they've received, some have drawn millions from their partnerships with the military.
Last year, Duke netted more than $33 million in defense funding, nearly double the more than $17 million it received in 2008 but less than the school's peak funding of more than $44 million in 2010.
It's unclear how sequestration and other budget cuts may affect the research.
A Duke spokesman said the school had not heard whether its military funding would be affected.
Among the school's projects are the research into improving detection of land mines and improvised explosive devices, and the study of sea creatures to help with camouflage.
The latter involves the study of cephalopods, such as cuttlefish and squid, which change color and shape to blend into their environments.
Yakir Gagnon and other Duke researchers want to know why the creatures pick the particular colors and shapes they do and how they form the patterns so quickly.
The end result, Gagnon said, may ultimately help the military pick a better camouflage for its troops.
Another high-profile research project on Duke's campus is the use of metamaterials - artificially constructed materials with unique electromagnetic properties - to create an "invisibility cloak" that could be used to conceal military equipment.
Assistant research professor Yaroslav Urzhumov said his research is 99 percent funded by the military.
He said nearly all of the service branches are interested in metamaterials.
"It's hard to come up with a Department of Defense agency that hasn't funded some research," he said.
Part of Urzhumov's research is aimed at cloaking ships, planes and drones to make them virtually invisible to radars and sonar.
Using metamaterials to coat the objects, he said, has returned results "previously thought unthinkable or surreal."
"The current stealth technology works very well, but stealth aircraft can be seen with help of arrays of radars," he said. "One way to get around that is to develop a true cloak. That's what we want."
While bomb-detection software and "invisibility cloaks" don't appear to have any practical application outside of the military, it may just be too early to tell.
The common GPS mapping system used in smartphones and car navigation systems, and that lowly roll of duct tape, are among the many commonly used products designed for the military.

A man on the island of Guernsey in the English Channel caught a 13-pound bass to win an ocean fishing contest and $1,290, only he didn't actually catch the fish in the traditional sense. He stole it from the St. Peter Port Aquarium.
Matthew Clark, 29, posed for photos of his winning "catch" and claimed the prize in the Bailiwick Bass Club Open Competition before getting exposed by another competitor who recognized the fish.
"My wife and I took the kids to the aquarium and saw the bass in the tank," Shane Bentley told The Mirror. "It stood out because it had some very distinct markings on its head.
"It wasn't until the winning fish was lifted for the photo that I thought, 'That's the fish from the aquarium.'
"Next morning, I went to the aquarium and asked to see the bass with the markings. But neither myself nor the owner could find it anywhere."
Bentley told contest organizers, who then alerted police. The Mirror reported that Clark panicked and sold the bass to a fishmonger, but police matched the head of the fish carcass to the missing bass and arrested Clark.
Clark wound up confessing to burglary and fraud over the summer incident, and on Thursday he was given 100 hours of community service after taking a two-year oath of good behavior.
According to The Mirror, Clark owed the owner of the aquarium $2,400, so on the last day of the fishing tournament, he scaled cliffs, climbed a rope ladder, and snuck into the aquarium through a back door. He presumably used a net to catch the fish.
It was unknown whether Bentley caught a fish in the contest, but he did catch a thief.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - A key New York senator says he expects the New York Legislature to pass a "comprehensive" gun control bill Monday with the support of Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
It would be the nation's first gun control measure following last month's Connecticut school shooting.
Sen. Jeffrey Klein, who leads the Independent Democratic Conference in the Senate, says the bill will include a strengthened ban on assault weapons, will restrict ammunition magazines to seven bullets from the current 10 and will institute harsher penalties for gun crimes.
Klein tells reporters he's confident the bill will be passed Monday.
People close to the closed-door negotiations tell The Associated Press the tentative deal is in place. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the proposal had not been discussed among rank and file lawmakers.
A Cuomo administration official says there's no agreement.

Australian Sally Fitzgibbons thought she had thrown away back-to-back Rip Curl Pro surfing titles.
Instead, the ever-smiling 21-year-old NSW surfer survived what she called an "oh, crap" moment to win her second women's final at Victoria's Bells Beach, beating four-time world champion Stephanie Gilmore on Saturday.
Fitzgibbons outscored Gilmore in the same set of waves to back up her 2011 success and perhaps give her the springboard to the world title the two-time runner-up craves.
In a women's sport where athleticism, beauty and grace are turning both heads and pre-conceived ideas, Fitzgibbons and Gilmore's final turned into the exact opposite of what had happened the rest of the week in quality Bells surf.
As the waves fell away, it became all nervous tension and tactics, and an uncharacteristic slip from Gilmore was pivotal.
The 24-year-old fell off perhaps the best wave of the final.
Gilmore's right leg slipped out from under her at the wrong time, allowing Fitzgibbons to cling on by her yellow-painted toenails and fingernails - carefully coloured to match her competition vest.
Then it came down to one set of waves.
Gilmore went first. Fitzgibbons followed on the next - and the Gerroa product's 7.33 to Gilmore's 6.5 proved enough for her to win.
There was one more nervous moment for Fitzgibbons before she could celebrate wildly with father Martin and mum Mary on the shore.
With priority, she passed on the last available wave rather than ride it to guarantee herself victory.
Gilmore jumped on, but couldn't come up with the score she needed to win a fourth Bells title - a high-risk move Fitzgibbons says she won't be repeating in a hurry.
"I thought 'oh, crap - I think I just let this go'," Fitzgibbons said.
"But I thought it was flat. That was the mindset I had and thankfully, that's how it turned out.
"It was such a tactical and tough battle. Steph had been dropping high scores and I'd been dropping high scores all day.
"But with the tide rushing in, it became who could adapt quicker and find that gem among all those failing waves."
Previously Fitzgibbons and particularly Gilmore had been ripping out monster scores at will.
Fitzgibbons' event had been dotted with mid-eights and nines, and that theme continued as she beat American rookie Lakey Peterson in the morning's quarter-final.
Then she downed reigning world champion Carissa Moore to make the final.
Gilmore had won both her quarter-final and semi-final in style, beating Hawaiian Malia Manuel and northern NSW teenager Tyler Wright.
Gilmore posted high-scoring 9.77 rides in both - and bravely waited until the last possible wave before getting the score she needed to beat Wright in a semi-final which was nearly as tactical as the final.

Very Cute! Not as Much Play Space as Cafe, Though
By LindsayF
from Normandy
I'm a lifelong Lego fan/collector and I LOVE the Friends line! I would have gone crazy over these as a kid-- I enjoyed my Belville but always wished it was on the same scale as my System sets. Friends are a great balance between being girly and working with other themes! You can even swap their hairstyles with traditional minifigs. This Bakery is an adorable little set that comes with SO many accessories! The minidolls are super cute--you get Mia in a bakery uniform and Danielle, basically a blonde Olivia, in a cute purple outfit & a bow. Things I love about this set: -The little foods are adorable! A pretzel, a baguette, cherries (pink, not the usual red ones), cookies, buildable cakes, and more! -Baking accessory pack includes 3 place settings, pots & pans, and more -Lots of clear elements and an adorable building design -Large oven & absolutely adorable display case of foods, just like a real bakery Things I don't love: -The building itself is a bit smaller than the similarly-priced Corner Cafe (granted, the Cafe is $5 more expensive), and doesn't have room for the large oven or the bakery case. I find it kind of odd that Lego gives you these elements and then doesn't give you room in the bakery for them. I guess I could understand having a display case on the sidewalk, but the oven? Kind of illogical. -I wish Lego would include some of the new coin elements like they have in Castle sets--paying 100 Lego bucks for bakery treats seems a little much ;). This is nit-picky though. Overall, it's a super cute little set and a great addition to your own personal Heartlake City!

Surprise Smash Hit!
By Hikari
from Undisclosed
I purchased this set to complete my Friends collection, thinking I wouldn't particularly enjoy this set since it has very few medium azure pieces. I will freely admit that I greatly judge LEGO® pieces by their color, and pink is lowest on the ladder for me. However, I did not realize how many clear pieces are included in this set! Clear pieces have always been my favorite, and a small display built at the beginning contained 7 of them! The rest of the build has a large amount of clear pieces, too, which made the whole building much more fun for me. The cakes are fantastic, and made me hungry while I was building. There are so many details included, that this ended up becoming my favorite of the new Friends releases this year! I highly recommend this set for builders of all ages, especially for any kids who love baking and/or clear pieces!

terrific boots!
these are great boots. comfy and stylish and perfect for texas not-so-cold winters. i wear a 6-6 1/2, but ordered a SEVEN because of all the reviews saying the shoes ran somewhat narrow. and the sevens are perfect. i will definitely get the other color because i anticipate wearing these boots all winter.

Crocs are the only shoe that I can wear and I was super excited to buy this boot...I had to return the boot because it was too small and narrow. I can't rate this shoe on being comfortable or durable, because I don't know.
I still love crocs and will continue to purchase shoes, maybe I will try a men's boot...hahaha!!!

Bad fit
Not happy at all with these. Returning them. I ordered an 11W and I could barely get them on. The boot is narrow. I could tell that when I took them out of the box but thought I would try them on. I have a high instep but when I order wide I can get boots on. Once on they were very tight. I'm so disappointed as Crocs seem to be one of the few shows I can wear all day comfortably. First time I have ever given this low of a rating but I can't give them any higher. The 2 is because they are a nice looking boot.
Best little boot I've owned!
The Adela Suede Boot is the cutest. I ordered a size 8 (I'm a 7.5) in the khaki/lilac color. I was a little apprehensive as to whether I would like those colors together but they turned out super adorable and fit nicely on my foot. It's comfortable and lightweight. The shaft height is perfect for my short legs (I'm 5'2") and the shaft circumference is generous enough for my thicker calf muscles. Like I said, very comfortable and not tight on my calves at all and I love that they are suede!! :) I've purchases several different styles of Crocs shoes and this is the best purchase I've made from Crocs so far! Thanks!

Pairing Acidic and Sweet Wines with Food (video)
In the video above, wine expert Neil Smith explains
why special attention needs to be paid to the acidity and sweetness in wines when pairing wines with food.
"Sauvignon blanc has a high level of acidity, so you need to think about the food and whether it has the equal amount of acidity," he says. "Acidity in food can tame the wine and they can work well together."
Likewise, sweetness can make a highly acidic wine taste even sharper and even unpleasant. "A sweet wine, like a German reisling, can work well with spicy foods," he says. "The sweetness in the wines can tame the spicyness of the food." Watch the video above to learn what types of foods work well with sweet wines.

Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
Three people were thrown from a SUV on Highway 50 Wednesday night after the driver lost control and rolled the vehicle multiple times.
The rollover happened seven miles outside Canon City at mile marker 288.
According to State Patrol, the SUV rolled three and a half times. Troopers say the driver lost control, but do not have any further information on what caused the accident. Toxicology results are pending to determine whether or not alcohol was involved.
The driver was not wearing a seat belt and died at the scene. He has been identified as Christopher Prater, 29, of Penrose.
A woman and 14-year-old boy, also from Penrose, were taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

Looking back through Aggie history, the week of September 22nd has a wide variety of opponents with some varying results.
So, we blow the dust off the different tapes and settle in for a trip back in time in this week's Old Army Rewind.
Five years ago, in 2007, the Aggies made the long trip to Miami on a Thursday night, and left the Orange Bowl with a loss. Miami put the game away early, taking a 24-0 lead into the halftime break and leading 31-0 before the Aggies got on the board. The Hurricanes blew away the Aggies 34-17.
Ten years back, another loss to an ACC team, this one a lot closer and at Kyle Field. Frank Beamer's Virginia Tech Hokies limited the Aggies to just 156 yards. Lee Suggs plowed in from a yard out in the fourth quarter for the only touchdown of the game as the Hokies topped the Ags 13-3.
Turn back the clock 15 years this week, and you'll find a blow out win over Southwestern Louisiana. A&M grabbed a 24-0 lead in the first quarter, the big play this 41 yard touchdown toss from Brandon Stewart to Chris Cole. And Dante Hall delivered the fireworks to start the second quarter. A 70 yard touchdown to make it a 31-0 game. The Aggies go on to a 66-0 victory.
Twenty year ago, the eventual Southwest Conference champs picked up a non-conference win at Missouri. The Tigers grabbed a 10-0 lead but the fifth ranked Aggies battled back. This 73 yard Jeff Granger to Tony Harrison catch and run pulled A&M within three, then Granger hit Greg Hill to put the Aggies ahead to stay as the Maroon and White went on to a 26-13 win.
25 years back in the archives, the Aggies pulled off an upset win over tenth ranked Washington at Kyle Field. Keith Woodside gave the Aggies the early lead, outrunning the Huskies 77 yards to the end zone. A&M would never look back, getting a Lafayette Turner touchdown on this Washington punt on the way to a 29-12 win.
Also this week in Aggie History, 6th ranked A&M picked up a 33-17 win at 7th ranked Texas Tech in 1977.
40 years ago, 9th ranked LSU took care of A&M 42-17 at Death Valley.
55 years back, in 1957, Bear Bryant's 2nd ranked Aggies beat Maryland 21-13.

The U.S. government ended up losing $10.5 billion on the General Motors bailout, but it says the alternative would have been far worse.

BBB Warns of Phone Directory Scam
Sunday, May 19th, 2013Better Business Bureau of Southern Arizona is warning local businesses to beware of a yellow page directory invoice being faxed and mailed to area businesses.
BBB received several calls from local businesses who received faxes or mailers from multiple yellow page directory companies. The correspondence asks businesses to verify their company information.
The official-looking verification form shows the company's basic contact information and touts the image of fingers flipping through the phone book. However, the verification form is not from any local yellow page phone directory but for a national online directory.
Businesses beware: the mailer is not a bill, but if you fill it out you may be contacted by someone who will try and collect money from you.
BBB Tips:
- Make sure to designate a single person within your business to handle such matters. The will be aware of any and all directory listings your company is placing and when they renew.
- If you have filled out this form, make sure you contact the company immediately to cancel.
- Be sure to read all small print on any form or contract you sign for your business.
- Many fraudulent or scam companies will use similar names or logos of known companies. Be sure you are dealing with the company you think you're dealing with.

FM meets financial advisers to discuss curbs on spending
By PTI - NEW DELHI
Published: 18th September 2013 09:41 AM
Last Updated: 18th September 2013 09:41 AM
Finance Minister P Chidambaram today chaired a meeting of financial advisers of various ministries to consider ways to curb wasteful expenditure and keep the fiscal deficit within the budget target.
The meeting was also attended by Minister of State for Finance J D Seelam and Finance Secretary R S Gujral.
"We wanted to check the level of spending. We asked the financial advisers of different ministries to spend money in a way as you spend your own money," Seelam told reporters after the meeting.
Chidambaram had recently said "hard decisions" would be taken to trim wasteful expenditure and curb the import of "inessential" items.
Financial advisers play a crucial role in controlling spending and report directly to the Expenditure Secretary in the Finance Ministry.
Curbing non-essential expenditure has become important as the fiscal deficit has reached 62.8 per cent of the budgeted target in the first five months of the financial year.
Last year, the government cut plan expenditure by about Rs 93,000 crore. The government also did not allow ministries to spend more than one-third of their annual outlay in the last quarter.
Chidambaram has reiterated that the fiscal deficit target budgeted for the current year will not be crossed.
"The fiscal deficit target of 4.8 per cent is a red line and the red line will not be crossed," he had said.
More from this section
The Govt. can easily get some Rs.63000 crores from Reliance people for their huge production cuts of gas from KGD6 gasfields; this amount would be a very big financial relief to the Govt. in the current acute financial crisis facing the country. DGH and toplevel officials of Petroleum Ministry & Finance Ministry okayed this levy of penalty for severe performance failures of Reliance people; the earlier petroleum Minister had also cleared this highly legitimate penalty claim on Reliance and was moved out for obvious reasons; but the present Petroleum Minister in his wisdom is said to have referred. again this matter to the Solicitor Genl. & the Law Dept. for their comments even though strictly speaking there was no necessity for seeking such fresh opinion from them, since on an earlier occasion they had prima facie cleared the proposal for penalty levy.in principle. The idea appears to be delay the matter as long as possible for obvious reasons. (Contd..)
Posted by Onlooker at 09/18/2013 10:44 Reply to this Report abuse
(Contd...) Who gains in the process is anybody's guess. If the Govt.forgoes/loses this huge amount, then it would naturally mean huge windfall profit of Rs.63000 crores approx. to the Reliance Group a few months before the elections next year as highlighted in detail by the CPI leader Mr.G.Dasgupta. So it is now for the PM to look into this matter personally and urgenty and decide whether or not the Govt. should get this huge amount of Rs.63000 crores from this corporate giant, which is legitimatey due to the Govt. It also needs to be noted that due to these huge gas production losses from the KGD6 gas fields, huge imports of gas had also to be made at dolble or treble the cost, besides causing immense losses and hardships to lakhs of industrial and residdential consumers of electricity, who had also to shell out thousands of crores payments by way of addl.fuel surcharge in their monthly electricity bills for the last several months. (Contd...)

(Contd...)To get mega projects tall claims ,promises are made initially and eventually huge production losses are also caused for years giving many alibis by some corporate giants leading to huge hardships and addl. financial burdens for millions of electricity & gas consumers.

Govt should put curbs on wasteful spending by- Ministers to travel by metro, their security be minimised to two personnel, no personal staff except PA and peon. Govt should also close down kitchen at Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, and instead seek cooperation of Rasheed Masood and Farooq Abdullah, and negotiate bulk orders with outside parties, who are able to supply meals at Rs.5 or Re 1, per person.
