HSBC denies it is partial to any flotation after rumours
Ian King: Business Editor's Commentary
HSBC denies it is partial to any flotation after rumours
Ian King: Business Editor's Commentary
The number of households struggling to pay their mortgage or facing repossession has fallen to its lowest level since the financial crisis struck six years ago. Figures from the Bank of England today showed that the volume of accounts in arrears dropped sharply in the three months to September to 278,355 – a fall of 13,823 compared with the previous three months and the lowest level since the third quarter of 2007. New repossessions also fell by 14 per cent compared with the same period last year. The data suggested that households had enjoyed a marked improvement in their finances recently, despite concerns about a housing bubble. More buyers are also taking advantage of fixed-rate mortgages than at any point in the past six years, as they look to lock in the benefit of low interest rates. Fixed-rate deals are at record lows. The increase in mortgage lending has filtered through to both first-time buyers and buy-to-let landlords. New homeowners were loaned £9.9 billion in the quarter — the most since the final three months of 2007. Buy-to-let landlords were extended £5.9 billion, the largest amount since the second quarter of 2008. The Bank's MLAR statistics also provided evidence of a broad improvement in the mortgage market, with net lending recovering to a two-year high at £7.2 billion. However, there were signs that banks had begun to relax their lending standards as more mortgages were issued on higher loan-to-income ratios. The proportion of mortgages advanced to
Britain's trade deficit remained static in October, underlining the problems that the economy still faced despite growing at its fastest pace in more than three years. The UK's deficit on trade in goods and services was estimated to have been £2.6 billion in October, unchanged from September, according to the Office for National Statistics. There was a deficit of £9.7 billion on goods, but this was partly offset by an estimated surplus of £7.1 billion on services. Exports of goods to countries within the EU decreased by £500 million to £12.1 billion, while those to countries outside of Europe increased by £200 million to £12.6 billion. However, the quarterly measure, which smoothes out monthly blips, showed that exports to EU countries fell by 5.6 per cent to £37.5 billion in the three months to October. Exports to countries outside the EU fell by 2.6 per cent to £37.4 billion in the sa
A flagship bribery case brought by the Serious Fraud Office against a billionaire Labour donor collapsed today. Victor Dahdaleh, a British-Canadian metals magnate with ties to Tony Blair, was found not guilty of paying £40 million in bribes to senior officials at Aluminium Bahrain, one of the world's biggest aluminium smelters, as a result. The collapse of the trial is a huge embarrassment for the SFO, which has been trying to rebuild its reputation as a hard-nosed crime fighting organisation under David Green, its director, who replaced Richard Alderman last year. The SFO's case fell apart after it emerged that the agency had outsourced part of its investigation into Mr Dahdaleh to an American law firm that was simultaneously involved in separate litigation with him in the United States. Lawyers for the firm, Akin Gump, refused to be cross-examined withou

Twenty-five years ago, brothers Christopher, Theodore, Peter Drivas and business partner Robert Van Meer combined their hospitality, wedding and business expertise to form the Dockside Group. The close-knit family business now boasts eight Sydney venues and restaurants all situated in iconic Sydney Harbour locations.
The story of Dockside Group begins in 1986 with the founding of WatersEdge Restaurant at Pier One, Walsh Bay. WatersEdge transformed from a seafood restaurant to a quality venue in 1993 and fast became the most admired wedding venue in Sydney, winning the ABIA Best Wedding Venue in 1994 and 1995 and many more ABIA accolades in its lifetime.
In 1998, Dockside Group grew to include Dockside, a large function venue on the first level of the Cockle Bay Wharf, part of the Darling Harbour development. Dockside developed into a leading conference and function venue and is now recognised as a market leader in the events and meetings industry.
In 2001, Dockside Group acquired L'Aqua, situated on the roof top of Darling Park, just above Dockside. After extensive modifications to the interior and installation of state-of-the-art audio visual and technical facilities, L'Aqua was successfully re-launched as a contemporary and stylish conference and special event function venue.
In 2005, Star Room joined the Dockside Group portfolio, situated at the top of the Imax Theatre complex, with extensive northern views of Darling Harbour and the CBD. Soon after, Ice Cube Seafood Grill and Bar was acquired below the complex and in 2011 the restaurant was refurbished and reopened as a stylish new gourmet pizza restaurant called, EAT LOVE PIZZA.
During 2007 and 2008 Dockside Group acquired Italian Village, Waterfront and Wolfies in Campbell's Cove in Sydney's historic Rocks precinct. These restaurants are situated in one of the most captivating dining positions in Sydney, offering guests' unparalleled views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and world famous Opera House.
In March 2012, WatersEdge closed its doors after 27 years of operation at Pier One in Walsh Bay. The venue closed due to the conclusion of its lease contract and is relocating, with the new site yet to be announced.
Dockside Group is now one of the most experienced and successful hospitality organisations in Sydney.The second generation of Drivas' are now working throughout the business, a testament to the strength of the company. The family-orientated business prides itself on offering customers generous quality food, and genuine sense of hospitality. With water views and enviable locations, all within walking distance to Sydney CBD, the venues are popular locations for weddings, business events, special occasions and formals. Always delivering the very best, Dockside Group opens the doors of their venues and restaurants and invites customers to experience the Dockside Group difference.

I had so much fun at our 4th of July party that I decided to do it twice more.
On the 5th we had one of my favorite events of the year. Our embassy staff in Ottawa and their families came over for a picnic. We ate more BBQ! I know Julie and I get much of the credit for our 4th of July party, but the real credit goes to all of the people in the Embassy and our Residence who work for months to put it together and then volunteer all weekend to make sure everything goes smoothly.
Since they are all working on the 4th, we have a party for them and their families on the 5th. The kids decorate their bikes with red, white and blue streamers and we have a bike parade. There are potato sack races. But the highlight is the softball game between the Marines and the Embassy team. I sit in the embassy team's owner's box with Julie. I'm happy to report that the trophy will sit with pride for another year in my office.
Early the next morning it was off to Calgary for the next 4th of July.
Before the party I had the chance to meet the new Mayor of Calgary, Naheed Nenshi. He's a very dynamic and fun guy. We talked about the future of cities, the energy economy in Calgary and the rest of Alberta, and the upcoming Stampede. It turns out we had both bought the exact same new boots from the Alberta Boot Company. We obviously both have great taste. He then White-hatted me.
The Mayor and I then joined about 500 people for the Calgary Consulate's 4th of July party — two days late. For the third day in a row the weather was perfect and a good time was had by all. One special surprise was the band, led by well-known Calgary blues artist Gary Martin who is originally from Chicago. He assembled a band of American musicians to play some great rhythm and blues for the event. I had a chance to visit with them and we compared notes on our favorite songs and performers (Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf). They played a request from me — one of my all time favorites: Howlin' Wolf's "Built for Comfort." It begins: "Some folks built like this. Some folks built like that. But the way I'm built don't you call me fat. Because I'm built for comfort. Not for speed."
No comments please.
The next day I started out visiting with my friend Dave Rutherford on his morning radio show. Then it was off to the University of Calgary for a site visit of the Solar Decathlon house. A team of University of Calgary students will represent Canada in the 2011 Department of Energy Solar Decathlon competition in Washington, D.C. in September. The contest challenges 20 student-led teams to demonstrate inventive, clean-energy solutions by building solar-powered houses that are cost-effective and energy-efficient.
The students gave me a tour of their entry, called The Cenovus TRTL (pronounced 'turtle') – Technological Residence, Traditional Living, a safe, durable, net-zero home designed to address critical issues in Aboriginal housing. The team is working with the Treaty 7 First Nations of Southern Alberta on the housing concept and design. The team's spiritual and cultural advisor Dr. Reg Crowshoe, a Piikani Blackfoot Elder, joined us at the site. Following the tour, he thanked me for coming by, presenting me with a traditional Blackfoot blanket and sang a song for me in Blackfoot. Then Monique Kimber, a member of the team's Aboriginal Advisory Council, presented me with a handcrafted necklace with a turtle design reflecting the solar home's shape and Aboriginal influences.
Then it was time to get ready for the Stampede. I had everything I needed, except western shirts. I now have two. One looks like an American flag. The other has a skeleton dancing among beer bottles on the back, which I was assured in the store was completely appropriate for the Stampede. We'll see.
Sporting my flag shirt, I went to the Prime Minister's reception where the guests of honor were the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. There were vast numbers of people waiting 10 deep around the building to catch a glimpse of the Royal Couple.
Next it was off to the annual dinner Gen. Natynczyk gives at the Stampede for friends of the Canadian Forces. The guests of honor were Adm. Sandy Winnefeld and his wife Mary. Adm. Winnefeld is the Commanding Officer of NORAD and NORTHCOM. He was recently nominated by President Obama to be the Vice Chair of the Chiefs of Staff, the second ranking position in the U.S. military. I have been privileged to get to know Adm. Winnefeld over the last year and his promotion is enormously well deserved. The U.S. military is in outstanding hands.
Tomorrow we Stampede!

Product Reviews
Premier Xenon Light Bars for Under Cabinet Application
Under Cabinet Lighting
We purchased this under the cabinet light to replace an outdated fluorescent fixture. The new light was hard-wired into our existing on/off switch, and this still allows us to turn on the light at low or high power. Installation took about 30 minutes or less. Illumination is very strong, which is what we wanted. Light does seem to get a little hot, but no smell or other sign of problems. Overall, we are very pleased with the purchase.

Star Charts by Suzanne LaBarne
Horoscopes just for Nurses!
You will be filled with the uncontrollable urge to do one silly thing this week, Scorpio. Better do it early and get it right out of the way. Do a silly thing TODAY. If that urge comes back tomorrow, well, give in to it, and that should cure the problem. Really. Nothing in your stars mentions ridiculous walks, animal imitations, or dancing in the hallway…honest…we mean it…
Security weighs heavy on Sagittarius' mind this week; anxiety abounds. Resist the temptation to pile on extra hours: burn yourself out and you won't be doing yourself any favors. This tension will pass as the season changes.
An unexpected visitor will cause chaos and upset…it's difficult to tell from here if that means patients, inspectors, or celebrity guests, but you'd better try to be ready!
You know how they say there's no such thing as a dumb question? This week you'll discover why that saying is wrong! The stars promise learning opportunities in quantity for mentors, preceptors, 'buddys' and other supervisory types.
Pisces wins the week! Your stars are in alignment. Everything you touch will turn to gold…well, actually, that didn't work out too well for King Midas. Maybe every patient you touch will turn into a grateful, compliant, relatively self-sufficient decent human being. That's only slightly less likely than the gold thing, right?
Given the opportunity, miracles could happen this week. Failing that, I heard there's good cake in the cafeteria.
Taurus has a week of challenges ahead. Fortunately, some of that famed Taurus determination will kick in and get you through the worst of it. That, or judicious use of sick time…
Anticipation can be a positive emotion — you can look forward to the end of your shift — or a negative one, where you dread discovering exactly what those noises coming from in the next room means. This week you'll have to choose, Gemini, but pick carefully…the immediate choice is seldom the best.
Connections are important, as romance and family dominate your charts. That being said, don't overlook the value of connecting the 02 to the mask, the monitor plug to the outlet, things like that!
If you want to make your NM laugh, just tell her you have plans.
Once upon a time, Virgo, you dreamed of working in a laboratory, test tubes and beakers, solutions bubbling over the bunsen burner, the whole bit. That analytic passion will serve you well this week…or will get you drafted to pinch hit for stressed out pharm techs!
It's not magic, just your natural skills and talents at work, Libra. But you don't have to let THEM know that!

Nicknamed the City of Champions after their recent NFL and NHL titles, Pittsburgh also is home to one of the finer AAU tournaments in the early spring, the Pitt Jam Fest. The Hoop Group has put on this event for quite some time now, with the home base being held on the Pitt campus and locations spanning across all of the major colleges in the area. The competition is fierce, the event is well ran, and it's always a pleasure to enjoy a Primanti Brothers Sandwich in between!
While many of the nation's top teams were there, there seemed to be a misfortune of many of the top players being unable to attend for one reason or another. Guys like Michael Gilchrist, Andre Drummond, Rakeem Christmas, Dajuan Coleman, and Elijah Macon didn't make the journey to Pittsburgh after being expected. Obviously it's no one's fault, but just the nature of the AAU business.
Here's a look at some of the top PUNKS who caught our eye:
Myles Mack | 5-9 | PG | Playaz 17U | 2011
Mack was quite possibly the most dominant cat here in Pittsburgh. The diminutive point guard got buckets on anyone he went up against, but really impressed me with the way his playmaking skills have grown over the last year. The Patterson Catholic star can bomb from deep, control the tempo of the game, and also finish in traffic. Size is the only thing holding Myles back, but it hasn't held school such as DePaul, Penn State, Rutgers, and Providence from offering him scholarships.
Rodney Purvis | 6-3 | PG/SG | CP-3 All-Stars 17U | 2013
Arguably the nation's top freshman guard, Purvis was the star for an undermanned CP-3 squad that was missing it's top two post players (Jacob Lawson and Joseph Uchebu). The physical combo guard didn't have the best weekend in terms of shooting the ball, but was an unstoppable penetrator going to the rim. Purvis seriously has a little DWade in his game with the way he contorts his body in the air and always avoids contact. Definitely a cat to keep an eye on for the next few years because he has a chance to be special.
Negus Webster-Chan | 6-6 | SG/SF | CIA Bounce/Team Takeover (CN) 16U | 2012
Oh Canada, we have another one! SLAMonline's own Tariq Sbiet was the first one to really show him some love and now he's blowing up in the states after his strong play on the AAU circuit. The smooth and athletic wing can do a little bit of everything, playing four positions on the floor for his AAU team due to his killer court vision and ability to handle the rock. Negus' jumper wasn't really falling over the weekend, but we saw enough out of him to definitely feel that he's a guy high-major schools should be taking a look at.
Tyler Lewis | 5-10 | PG | Team Loaded 17U | 2012
Although this 155 pound point guard may not pass the look test and we aren't quite sure if he shaves yet, kid has serious game and may be the best passer in high school regardless of class. Lewis has a smooth outside jumper and is honestly ambidextrous, explaining why he's gathered offers from Miami, NC State, Wake Forest, Baylor, and Virginia Tech. Basketball is his pedigree too, with his older brother playing at UNC-Charlotte and his father running the Adidas Phenom Camp in North Carolina.
PJ Boutte | 5-7 | PG | Ohio Basketball Club 17U | 2011
Leading his team to the 17U title game, Boutte was dropping more dimes than a parking meter. In one game, he converted on seven alley-oops with his Ohio Basketball Club teammates. The little man is tough as nails, not backing down from any competition and attacking players well over a foot taller than him at the rim. An early verbal to Detroit, he'll be sticking to his commitment after McDonald's All-American Ray McCallum committed to the Titans, believing they can both play in the backcourt at the same time.
Amile Jefferson | 6-7 | SF/PF | Team Philly 16's 17U | 2012
With his whole team playing up in the 17U age bracket, Jefferson was constantly matched against forwards a year older than him throughout the tourney. The lanky forward has drawn comparisons to fellow Philly native Hakim Warrick, which we can definitely see with his nifty footwork in the post and ability to step out and shoot the ball facing the basket. Amile certainly needs to put some meat on his bones but has the skill level and versatility to be one of the better forwards in the Class of 2012.
Sim Bhullar | 7-4 | C | CIA Bounce/Team Takeover (CN) 16U | 2012
No, that's not a typo. Sim Bhullar is a 7-4 sophomore who SLAMonline featured back in November with his brother Tanveer. He's more advanced than Tanveer at this point of the game, both in terms of skill set and conditioning. Sim turned some heading in a 16U game when he scored 9 straight points, on 2 dunks, a 17 footer, and a three pointer. Obviously he's not the quickest guy down the floor and is a long ways away from being a finished product, but the package of sheer size and agility he and his brother possess have made them YouTube sensations.
Aaron White | 6-6 | SF/PF | Ohio Basketball Club 17U | 2011
The versatile forward struggled a bit in his first couple of games in pool play before turning the switch on once tournament time rolled around. Able to score from inside and out, White was a mismatch for opposing players at either forward spot. The Cleveland native currently is receiving interest from Butler, Penn State, West Virginia, and Wisconsin to name a few.
Tony Kimbro | 6-5 | SG/SF | Team Loaded 17U | 2011
Kimbro was one of the best slashers we caught in Pitt, as the lefty sliced and diced his way to the title in the 17U bracket. He was a nightmare for Ohio Basketball Club defenders to guard in the championship game, despite the fact he went left just about every time to the rim. The son of a former McDonald's All American, Kimbro's jumper wasn't falling at the rate it usually does, but we could still see why most recruiting services have him ranked amongst the top 150 players for his class.
Tanveer Bhullar | 7-2 | C | CIA Bounce/Team Takeover (CN) 16U | 2013
Tanveer didn't fare quite as well as his big bro, but gave us glimpses of why he is so heralded. He's reportedly dropped over 60 pounds in the last year and shows off decent footwork in the post and is barely 15 years old. Time will tell how much this massive freshman improves, but he's definitely a mammoth player to keep track of over the rest of his high school career.
Jordan Manuel | 6-7 | SF/PF | Ohio Basketball Club 17U | 2010
Manuel quite possibly had the most dunks of anyone in the tourney, usually on the receiving end of Boutte's lobs. The Indianapolis product is a nice athlete and can shoot it from beyond the arc, but needs to improve upon his attitude if he hopes to reach his fullest potential. He will be following Boutte to Detroit and is part of what could be a downright scary recruiting class for Ray McCallum if he is able to take care of things academically.
Bryson Scott | 6-2 | PG/SG | Spiece Gym Rats 15U | 2013
Scott was the best scorer we caught in the 15U portion of the tournament, dropping 30 or more points in three different games. The stocky combo guard used his strength to finish amongst the trees, shot the lights out of the ball from the perimeter, and made some sick passes with both hands. The Fort Wayne scorer has already received interest from a number of Big Ten programs despite only being a freshman.

Jay Thomas II was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1961. He and his family moved to The Bronx in 1965, and it was here that Jay began to take an active interest in drawing. Being an avid comic-book reader as a youngster, some of Jay's early influences came from such artists as John Romita Sr., Steve Ditko, and Jim Steranko. During the 1970's and early 80's, Jay tried in vain to get work at both Marvel and DC Comics. Finally, in 1982, Jay decided to radically change his style of art from the comic-book 'Superhero' type of art that he had been doing to a more realistic fine-art type, utilizing the pen & ink pointillism technique. Since then, Jay has exhibited his art throughout the NYC/Long Island area, and has been a part of renown art groups such as The Long Island Black Artists Association, The Huntington Township Art League, and The Harlem StreetGallery.

Ziggy Kruse should run for city council
but wait..
she is not a United States Citizen!
ahhhhhhhhhhh...another carpetbagger~!
Silver Lake activist Diane Edwardson is wary. She has lived in L.A. City Council District 13, which includes Hollywood, East Hollywood, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Atwater Village and Glassell Park, for 26 years. There's something about this chunk of L.A. that attracts a huge field of candidates, including many who move there just to try for the high-paying seat — $178,789 per year — on the L.A. City Council.
This year, 23 people hoped to run in the March 5 primary. Twelve of them — more than half of whom recently moved into the area — got organized enough to collect the voter signatures to qualify.
"It seems like we're everyone's starting ground for politics," Edwardson says. "Rather than having someone who's from the neighborhood — and for the neighborhood."
Christine Peters, president of Citizens Committee to Save Elysian Park, who's lived in Echo Park 22 years, comments: "It's quite interesting how all these individuals we've never met before want to represent us. ... People have political ambitions and want to climb the political ladder."
Community activist Ziggy Kruse, who has lived in CD 13 for 16 years, surmises, "A lot of [the candidates] are running because of the business development and the money that's in Hollywood. It has served Councilman Garcetti very nicely."
Eric Garcetti, who has represented CD 13 for 12 years, is running for mayor with endorsements or financial backing from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Political Action Committee and wealthy developers including Marty Shelton, vice president of real estate brokerage NAI Capital; and Maurice Ramirez, executive vice president of developer AMCAL Housing. Former Disney chairman Michael Eisner threw Garcetti an A-list fundraiser at his mansion.
The candidates for Garcetti's open seat are making a mad dash to win one of the most career-advancing City Council seats in California. Its gerrymandered, bizarrely shaped boundaries create a shape like an angry squirrel, and its trendy core has been dubbed by some the "Tri-Hipster Area." Among the top-tier candidates are Matt Szabo, former deputy mayor to Antonio Villaraigosa; Mitch O'Farrell, former senior adviser to Garcetti; John Choi, former director at the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor; and Alex De Ocampo, senior director for billionaire Haim Saban's charitable organization, Saban Family Foundation.
To be crass but accurate, "It's valuable political real estate," says Michael Woo, now dean of the College of Environmental Design at Cal Poly Pomona, describing Council District 13, which he once represented.
Garcetti is using his CD 13 visibility for his strong run for mayor. In 1993, then–CD 13 Councilman Woo beat many in the mayoral primary but lost the runoff to Richard Riordan. Jackie Goldberg successfully ran for the state Legislature while representing CD 13, serving three terms.
No city council race on the West Coast in the past year has attracted $1 million for a mere primary. But by mid-January, direct contributions to candidates in CD 13 hit $1.05 million. The next-priciest contest in L.A. was downtown's Council District 9, where $687,568 was given to candidates vying to represent that weighty political real estate. The winner will represent skyscraper owners, upscale new areas and the poor.
As of January, the County Fed union and its chief, Maria Elena Durazo, had spent more than $135,000 in CD 13 on a so-called "independent expenditure" ad blitz to elect John Choi, an obscure, $122,000-a-year Public Works commissioner who quit to run for City Council. Choi was virtually unknown to residents until a few months ago.
"New arrivals" to CD 13, as candidate Mitch O'Farrell calls them, include Choi, Szabo, De Ocampo and L.A. Fire Department assistant chief Emile Mack. Each has moved there within the past year or two, raising suspicion that career climbers dominate the ballot. (Similarly, longtime Inglewood politician Curren Price moved to CD 9 and then announced his run there.)
"It's a terrible red flag," says former Los Angeles Daily News editor and City Hall blogger/watchdog Ron Kaye. It signals "that they're looking for opportunity."
The March 5 primary will cut the field of 12 in CD 13 down to two. And those two could advance to the runoff by a margin of just 200 or 300 votes — thanks to voter disinterest in city council elections. Yet CD 13 is home to about 250,000 people and is undergoing wrenching change: Many thousands of working-class Latino families have fled Hollywood, East Hollywood, Echo Park and Silver Lake due to gentrification, creating a massive net population loss not seen in the city since black flight from South L.A. in the 1980s and '90s.
"Carpetbagging," as some dub the politician hopefuls who move to council districts where seats are opening, works. When Goldberg left City Hall for Sacramento in 2000, Garcetti moved to the district and won her seat. With $1 billion being spent to redevelop Hollywood, Garcetti grew close to big developers, attorneys and entertainment honchos. Whoever represents CD 13, Woo explains, that "person has the opportunity to make a lot of relationships outside of the district."
Community activist Edwardson is stressing out: "If a council member has been bought off by big developers," she says, "how can we expect him to work for us? He's supposed to represent us, and if we don't have that, we're in trouble."
Longtime Garcetti aide O'Farrell, a resident of tough Glassell Park since 1992, says some of the March 5 candidates moved in "for the primary purpose to launch their political careers." O'Farrell was a local community activist before landing a job at City Hall in 2002, and describes himself as one of the genuine "neighborhood guys" on the ballot, along with Robert Negrete of Atwater Village, Jose Sigala of Echo Park and Sam Kbushyan of Hollywood.
Ziggy Kruse should run for city council
but wait..
she is not a United States Citizen!
ahhhhhhhhhhh...another carpetbagger~!
I too am concerned that NONE of the candidates even mention the horrific development plans for Hollywood....or anywhere else in CD 13 for that matter. Will we EVER get someone who represents us in the LA City Council?? Doesn't seem like it.
I've been bombarded with hundreds of pieces of advertising materials from these candidates, contributing to nearly filling up the recycling bin at the back of our building. I do hope they're recyclable. None of these materials has given me any real information about them, nor influenced my voting. Thankfully I came across this article while desperately googling for information before the election.
And...to 'market' re: "Sorry Ms. Kruse, your activism does not mean that you represent the people of Hollywood"
I have been a resident of Hollywood for many, many...many years. Ziggy Kruse is an asset to the Hollywood area and it's residents, working tirelessly toward getting the voices of the residents heard at the City Council level. She's not working alone in that either. It isn't NIMBY; it's about representation. Hollywood residents are not represented in the L.A. City Council. The current councilman is a bought and paid for advocate for the big business entities that contribute to his campaign. These people treat Hollywood like a commodity, rather than a community. It's very sad. I don't think your boy Szabo is the solution either.
It is interesting that all the candidates running for CD 13 are silent about Garcetti's Hollywood's Plan except to lavish praise. According to Garcetti's own plan, Hollywood lost 26,198 people just between 2005 and 2010 while he was CD 13 councilman.
According to the 2010 Census there were 198,228 persons living in the Hollywood Community Plan Area in 2010. The baseline 2005 population estimate used in the Hollywood Community Plan Update was 224,426 persons. Garcetti's Hollywood Community Plan, 10-3-2011 FEIR p 3.1
Garcetti calls this fleeing from Hollywood a "revitalization," the same way that he called the $1/2 Billion loss on the Hollywood-Highland Project a "revitalization."
All told, Garcetti most likely squandered over $1 Billion in tax dollars on developers and his own Plan says he drove out 26,000 people. As the LA Weekly and LA Times have noted, Garcetti brought about this deterioration while cutting firefighters, fire stations and paramedics for those who stayed. Yet, none of these candidates noticed -- even when the population exodus was published in Garcetti's own community plan!
John Choi is now genuinely making an effort to learn about the District that he moved into 1 year ago: He's following @MitchOFarrell on Twitter. Yes, THAT Mitch O'Farrell. Smart move, John. If you want to learn about the 13th District, there's no one more knowledgable than Mitch.
Figures. This guy is completely suspect, with massive billboards and several glossy advertising sheets per day in my mail. Smell like 'bought and paid for' to me. No thanks!
No one has worked with more diligence to represent Council District 13 than Mitch O'Farrell. No one has more understanding of the district or the needs and concerns of its constituents than he.
We've been waiting for you, Mitch.
@chunababe Did he work diligently to help Garcetti rush this Hollywood Plan through as fast as possible, with as little public input as possible, skirting the law when possible because no one pays attention to this stuff?? Or am I wrong? Perhaps he witnessed the corruption in our City Hall, and wishes to do the right thing? At this point, I think we need public debates for the candidates. Maybe that would draw more voters interest in as well.
@SAMUSA Not true. A publicity event was held on Franklin Avenue, without any notice to surrounding residents, therefore preventing any visible protest to the Hollywood Millenium Project.
I have attended other meetings, and what I found is that residents are virtually tolerated, but have no weight in decisions by elected City Council officials who do not represent the interests of the people who elected them, but rather the developers who line their pockets.
@chunababe If he is so great, why is Hollywood such a mess? His been Garcetti's since when? 2001?
@scottzwartz @chunababe I agree with your observation, but I must add, Mitch seems like a really nice guy.
SAM KBUSYHAN for District 13 City Council!!! He is way more legit and caring and ready and able to faithfully represent the district. Please check him out and VOTE FOR SAM KBUSHYAN!

@market @lovelovelove What? I don't even know Ziggy Kruse. Sam is a great guy. Not sure who you are supporting but you kind of just sound like a hater.
@SAMUSA Man, you're really a sad case. Why are you tearing down someone who really cares about the community? I'm not aware of her citizenship status, nor does it apply to the situation at hand.
@lovelovelove @market If you do not know Ziggy Kruse, then you can't know much about Hollywood.
sorry, don't mean to come across as a hater, but more of a realist pointing out my experience.
I met with Sam Kabushyan to start a business improvement district in east hollywood. NOTHING Happened!!
I'm sure he is a nice guy, but I'm looking for a candidate that has some backbone, that has actually done something for the community, who has had an active dialogue with the community.
I don't appreciate a candidate or candidate camp knocking on my door telling me how to mark my absentee ballot.
Ziggy Kruse is not our spokesperson! I believe she is one of the many in a group that placed lawsuits on so many projects in Hollywood. It was a popular story in curbed la; known as: NIMBY greenmail http://la.curbed.com/archives/2013/01/leaked_settlement_shows_how_nimbys_greenmail_developers_1.php
Sam Kabushyan camp has been intimidating the absentee voter; they fear retaliation for speaking upThis is not an election for ziggy kruse or sam kabushyan
Matt Szabo set up PayPal accounts in city hall to pay for Michael Jacksons funeral, he was also instrumental in an attempt to provide an office space for Occupy LA for $1 a YEAR! Once the media found out about it, the deal was pulled http://www.dailynews.com/news/ci_19394416
I believe Ms Kruse sat on that group Sorry Ms. Kruse, your activism does not mean that you represent the people of Hollywood, even if you are a friend of the writer of this story Patrick McDonald
Mr. Abrams: Your numbers ARE WRONG! You stated: Can 23 candidates all be wrong? Time will tell."We don't have 23 candidates!!!!
@market "Your numbers ARE WRONG! You stated: Can 23 candidates all be wrong? Time will tell."We don't have 23 candidates!!!!"
Getting petty here.
suzzie dear...what are the numbers then?
abrams made a statement of 23 candidates, and someone was correcting him..we do not have that many running for the seat
OMG! I almost threw up my gelato when I saw the cult-like black and white John Choi billboard in Echo Park. No photo, just "I am Choi, I will save you, read my mailers, join my cult." It's all about him. His website says he wants for break the city free from special interests, yet special-interests have spent $135,000 to get him elected; He claimed to have worked on the Echo Park Lake restoration, yet he had NOTHING to do with it; He says he worked miracles while he was one of 5 over paid commissioners on the Board of Public Works, when he was only there for 11 months! He took campaign donations from the people that want to build more than 800 apartments and commercial space in Elysian Park. You can't break us free of the special-interests if they own you, dude. Please stop polluting my hipster paradise with all your junk mail and scary billboards!
John Choi is the worst example of a carpet-bagger. He moved into the 13th District 1 year ago, 92% of his campaign money comes from outside the District, he's very under-qualified, he's lied and exaggerated in his mailers, and on his website, and special-interest money is the ONLY reason he's even in the conversation and in the race. To win, he will have to buy the election, fool the voters of the 13th District and be the best actor that he can be. He either volunteered to run as a representative of the special interests, or he just completely whored himself to gain their favor and money. It's just the complete worse of any kind of American politics.
All the carpet bagging money drubbers who want to become King of the Development Corruption are dependent on Judge Goodman and his rubber stamping Garcetti's fraudulent Hollywood Community Plan. The Plan is simply put Garbage -- Garbage in, Garbage out. [The 1601 N Vine Project alone had a $1.4 M appraisal fraud.]
Hollywood's fraudulent nature was exposed when its DEIR was issued in March 2011. It falsely said that Hollywood's population in 2005 was 224,426 ppl, when it was about 206,000 persons. Five years later, the US Census showed that the 2000 population of 201,794 ppl had fallen to only 198,228 people by 2010. We are supposed to believe that the population zoomed up by 13,000 in five years and then crashed down by 26,000 the next five year, yet it would then skyrocket toward 250,000 ppl by 2030. Yep, the Garcetti plan said we had to build high rises for 250,000 people before 2030. Without the fraud of vast and huge population growth, who would finance the outlandish 55 story Millennium towers and the other mega projects in Hollywood?
It is interesting to learn from LA Weekly that over One Million Dollars has already been spent on a primary for CD 13 when everything rests on whether the judge can distinguish a verified 20 plus year population decline from a fictictious miraculous population explosion of 52,000 people in the next few years?
If Facts are Law count for anything, Garcetti's fraudulent Hollywood Community Plan is doomed. Yet, the smart (?) money has already spend over $1 M to gain this most lucrative cash cow. Choi - $192 K, Ocampo, $137 K, Mack $103 K That's a lot of money to spend when the development plan should be remanded for a complete do-over due to its irreconcilable conflicts with Facts and Law. Can 23 candidates all be wrong? Time will tell.
@abramsrl Facts and Law mean nothing in the face of political stooges and pay offs.
Isn't THAT the truth! I'm still in shock about how things are done even at this level of politics. I more fully understand the nature of what's going on in our US Congress now. It's all the same stuff.

When I heard that socialite Olivia Palermo modeled the latest Jill Stuart bags featured in Vogue Girl Korea for Fall/Winter 2012, I couldn't wait to see the steller pictures for the September feature. Palermo is a staple in the fashion world as someone that exudes a sophisticated style that a true fashionista couldn't help but admire. The photoshoot for the Jill Stuart handbag collection showcases similarities to Blair Waldorf, the wealthy, socialite portrayed by Leighton Meester in the CW's Gossip Girl along with elegant cuts and prints.
I had the opportunity to sit at Jill Stuarts Fall/Winter 2012 runway show this past February and I have to say, that I truly adore her designs. When chatting with Jill after her show, she spoke about her love of vintage fashions and how she actually has a vintage shop within her own retail store located on Greene Street in Manhattan.
This tote bag would most definitely fit into any fashion lovers wardrobe quite well! The tote is offered in Black, Blue and a pretty burnt Orange. I also love the collar necklace in one of the photos – so on trend, yet so chic! Miss Palermo was recently spotted at Century 21 on the Upper West Side shopping and of course she was spotted sitting at Jill Stuart's Fall/Winter 2012 runway show during New York Fashion Week!

Chicago hopes for jobs
As for the program's future, Wright said she is cautious but optimistic. "We're kind of in the honeymoon phase," she said. "This is really going to help us in terms of the pipeline development and getting people into our institutions and help with jobs."
However, JCESR's main measure for success may not be technology produced, but whether DOE's hub model outperforms conventional research paradigms. Venkat Srinivasan, head of the energy storage and distributed resources department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, explained that basic research in labs and commercial research in factories were usually in separate silos.
With JCESR, industry partners and entrepreneurs will be involved at the earliest research stages and remain committed as a battery design comes to fruition, according to Chu. Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley, as partners in JCESR, will have to coordinate closely with their counterparts at Argonne, despite more than 1,800 miles between them.
"This is not the Bell Labs of old where you need the water cooler effect," Srinivasan said. He added that the researchers Skype with their collaborators almost daily and share results through online databases.
For some public officials, A123's demise has not dampened their enthusiasm for battery research and clean-tech investment. "In Chicago, we are going to be the center of this promising field," said Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel last week. "If you invest in the quality of your workforce and infrastructure, you will actually lead the country in job creation." Emanuel said he wants to create a Silicon Valley-style environment for battery development and commercialization around Chicago.
Gov. Pat Quinn (D-Ill.) said he wants to make sure the state has a piece of the $42 billion international battery industry. "Our state early on recognized how important this is to our future," Quinn said at the announcement news conference. "We want to really be intimately part of it, the center of it."

Tried this out today as looking for an alternative, you only need a small amount (not as recommended on tin) as it\'s very sweet, but as many before me, very very lovely, refreshing and moreish.I asked the shop assistant today why only half a tub - it\'s because it has splenda in it and splenda weighs less therefore, and I quote, \"you get the same amount but it weighs less due to the splenda\". Not sure about that one, might be better to simply have it in a smaller tub? Nonetheless, very lovely and may well be purchasing more :-)
I love this green tea, I drink it every day so it is very annoying that it is so often out of stock, especially because there is no Whittards on the Isle of Wight where I live, so I have to order it on line!
I love your green tea instants. So amazing tasting and addictive. Though i would prefer for there to be more in the pack - like someone said earlier the packaging is misleading - plese put more in so we get more for our money because it is so amazing!!!!
I bought this and the other low calorie varieties just because they were low calorie which is unusual for instant tea. I wasn't disappointed with the flavours and the packaging is also lovely but very misleading as they were only half full. Would not buy again at full price but will look forward to when they are on special offer.
This is the third ordr I have recieved from Whittards and every one of them has be very lovely. The deliverery is perfect. I shall be submitting another order in a few days time. Thank-you.

Hosting provider takes the headache out of card handling compliance for retailers
VANCOUVER, BC, June 19, 2012: PEER 1 Hosting, (TSX:PIX) a leading IT hosting provider, has successfully achieved the Level 1 Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certification for several of its managed hosting and co-location data centres worldwide. PEER 1 Hosting's clients, who handle and process customer card details and transactions, can now be assured that their applications can be supported in a PCI compliant environment, enabling them to focus on their business rather than security.
Data security and compliance are key business drivers for online retailers and other organisations that process credit card transactions. Companies are required to meet the PCI DSS certification and failure to do so can prove costly, resulting in large fines if a data breach takes place as a result of not being compliant.
PCI DSS is a set of robust and comprehensive standards developed to increase payment data security and is endorsed by the major payment card brands: American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa Inc.
This news follows PEER 1 Hosting's recent announcement regarding the acquisition of NetBenefit, a certified Level 1 PCI DSS managed hosting provider. NetBenefit brings additional skills and a new datacentre for customers requiring low latency services in the London region.
"PEER 1 is committed to delivering IT infrastructure solutions that remove the security challenges and complexities our customers face," said Fabio Banducci, President and CEO, PEER 1. "Meeting the standards set by the Payment Card Industry Security Council allows us to offer customers a single process that meets their compliance needs while allowing them to do what they do best – run their businesses."
To achieve the industry-recognised standard for payment-card security, PEER 1 Hosting took part in an extensive evaluation and audit. A comprehensive examination of its procedures, policies, technical systems and technology infrastructure was evaluated via a third party qualified security assessor. PEER 1 Hosting's certification meets all the12 PCI DSS requirements.

UCOLL 300 - Unit II - Core Databases II - Introduction
In the tutorial Core Databases I, you learned all about citations, and how citations look in our "core databases." But of course, not too many people use databases just to get citations. Ultimately, you want to select the best resources for your research. Between accessing citations and deciding which resource to include in your research, there is a process of evaluation that needs to take place.
In this tutorial, we will learn some tips on how you can evaluate the sources you find in the core databases.
Most databases, in addition providing citations, will have abstract, summary or content notes that will give you a better idea of how the resource's topic is covered in the source.
This tutorial will cover how to access these abstracts and content notes.
(At the end of the tutorial are instructions on how to get the actual resource – book or article. However, you are not required to access any resources until Unit II.)

Posted in Branding → LogoA simply but effective logo that makes a statement using a bright red background. I particularly like the curvature of the typography and the even spacing.

Posted in Branding → LogoA gorgeous logo that makes an impact through its stark simplicity. The shading gives the concept great depth, allowing the coils to look truly coiled. There is also something very appealing about the blue colour used and the thickness of the white lines that make up the design, it just works!

Posted in Branding → ProductA simple but effective logo for a wine company that makes an immediate impact with its use of kaleidoscopic colours. The wine bottle details are a nice touch.
Posted in Branding → LogoA gorgeous example of an Ampersand that would work beautifully as the central piece of a logo. I love the sheer attention to detail and the sense of perspective created by the stamp-like concept.
Posted in Branding → LogoA simply great logo that sticks in your mind from the first time you see it. The use of the first letter of the brand as the mark always works well to aid recognition. I particularly like the symmetry and the use of orange for the mark.
Posted in Branding → LogoA stylish logo for an independent bar that uses striking colours to make an impact. I really like the way the mark and the typeface tie in, these little details help to make the logo unified and effective - those are the types of logos that stick in your mind.

Posted in Branding → LogoA brutally simple logo that's an interesting example of personal branding. The clean lines and basic nature of its structure help to make it memorable. I like the flow of the design and the relatively unique way the logo uses this particular designer's initials.
Posted in Branding → LogoA simply perfect logo for an art project for children. I love the concept and detailed execution. The typeface isn't entirely to my taste, but it works for this kind of project.

When I write a screenplay, I start out with an agenda. I decide who my hero is first and who is the villain. Then I fashion scenes to build my dramatic case and make it believable. That is, I believe, exactly what occurred with regard to at least two reporters, Sheila MacVicar of CNN and Tom Miller of the Los Angeles Times, on Tuesday, April 16 in the Jenin refugee camp.
I was there. I saw everything they saw, I heard everything they heard, I smelled everything they did not smell. And the truth is there was no smell of death on that day, despite what Miller wrote in his feature article of April 21.

Above the November election -- went according to Rasmussen Reports President Obama has really taken the lead of a Mitt Romney.
Scott Rasmussen is in new -- across the latest poll stop.
As of this morning it's President Obama 47%.
Mitt Romney 44%.
That's an improvement it's a third straight day the president has been ahead of the tracking poll.
But -- you know we've talked for a long time about how close this -- the numbers bounce around a little bit both candidates seem to be stuck in the mid to high 40% range.
I still believe that the perceptions of the economy are gonna -- term in this race more than anything else out there if you tell me what the economies like an October I'll tell you who's gonna win.
And I'm not gonna do that for you -- What -- what I think you've got a poll on whether people prefer a more stimulus more spending all less spending whether they stand on the plus 64% say they would prefer -- smaller government offering fewer services and lower taxes.
Up people who want a bigger government always -- questions like this because they say it's not fair voters they want more services leaders don't want to pay for them.
But the reason voters like that is that's what they get from the private sector are always looking for more product benefits and lower cost and companies like apple and of giving it to them.
He's got it all right Scott Rasmussen -- -- -- excellent stuff thank you very much indeed Scott good stuff thank you back to face.
