Lotus: Cheeky and they know it...
Iain Hepburn | January 29, 2013
Lotus launched their new car for the 2013 F1 season today. Although, if you follow their tweets, you might think they weren't taking the launch as seriously as they could be.
Especially when they tweeted out the picture above during the launch - a photo of Kimi Raikkonen's new steering wheel, apparently...
Raikkonen, of course, ticked off his pit crew en route to his victory in Abu Dhabi last year, telling them 'Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing!'.
Then promptly took the wrong turn in the following race and ended up in a dead end. �Hence, presumably, the map button.
As for writing #ImSexyAndIKnowIt on the side of the car... Fair play Lotus. �Stunt of the season winners so far.

(Reuters) - Udinese and former Italy striker Antonio di Natale said he would retire at the end of the season.
The 36-year-old played for Italy 42 times and scored 11 goals before quitting international football after the 2012 European Championship.
"I've already made the decision, I've talked about it with my family and my agent," Di Natale told Sky Sports Italia after Udinese's 3-1 home defeat by Verona on Monday.
"The club will know soon but I'll stop playing in June."
Di Natale, who started his career at Empoli and joined Udinese in 2004, twice finished as Serie A's leading scorer.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Wallabies name extended 30-man squad for 2 tests, Polota-Nau included but won't play 1st test
SYDNEY - Australia has announced a 30-man squad for its next two Rugby Championship matches, including the return of New South Wales Waratahs hooker Tatafu Polota-Nau.
Coach Ewen McKenzie said Wednesday that Polota-Nau will not be considered for selection in Australia's match against South Africa in Perth on Sept. 6.
Polota-Nau is continuing his rehabilitation from the right knee injury he sustained during the Waratahs' Super Rugby championship final win over the Crusaders on Aug. 2.
Australia will be without hooker Nathan Charles and winger Pat McCabe. Charles has a chest injury while McCabe has reportedly been forced to retire after suffering the third neck fracture of his career in Australia's 51-20 loss to New Zealand in Auckland last weekend.
The Australian Rugby Union is expected to clarify McCabe's career status on Thursday. ACT coach Stephen Larkham said Wednesday that McCabe had decided to retire, but the ARU and the Brumbies said those reports were premature.
McKenzie also named Western Force centre Kyle Godwin to an Australian squad for the first time.
The Wallabies also play Argentina on Sept. 13 on the Gold Coast in Queensland state. Australia is level on points with Argentina in the Rugby Championship but is in last place because of an inferior points differential.
New Zealand's win in Auckland enabled the All Blacks to extend their hold on the Bledisloe Cup to 13 consecutive years.
"We don't hide from the fact that our performance against New Zealand was well below our own expectations, which was especially disappointing considering the momentum we had created since last year's spring tour," McKenzie said. "We'll address that and then get on with preparing for what will be a very tough battle against South Africa next Saturday night."
The Wallabies go into camp on Sunday in Perth.
Australia squad: Backs — Israel Folau, Peter Betham, Rob Horne, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Tevita Kuridrani, Matt Toomua, Kyle Godwin, Christian Leali'ifano, Kurtley Beale, Bernard Foley, Nic White, Nick Phipps, Luke Burgess; Forwards - Wycliff Palu, Ben McCalman, Michael Hooper (captain), Matt Hodgson, Scott Higginbotham, Scott Fardy, Rob Simmons, James Horwill, Sam Carter, Will Skelton, Sekope Kepu, Ben Alexander, James Slipper, Pek Cowan, James Hanson, Saia Fainga'a, Tatafu Polota-Nau.

Autopsy today for woman found burned beyond recognition in Salisbury
Updated On: Dec 28 2012 07:25:26 AM CST
A gruesome scene awaited investigators Thursday morning in Lehigh County. A woman was found dead and burned beyond recognition on the side of a road in Salisbury Township. Now authorities are trying to learn more about the victim and what happened to her.
Folks living on Chestnut Hill Road were shocked to learn why their street was lined with police.
"My sister called and said that there was a body up around the corner here," explained Tim Bollinger.
"This is definitely out of the ordinary for us," added Elisse Cassick.
The Lehigh County Coroner says Thursday morning a call came in for a body on fire. When officers got on scene they discovered a woman's body burned on the side of Chestnut Hill Road, that's near the Unami Fish and Game Club.
"Her body was burned beyond recognition," explained Lehigh County Coroner Scott Grim.
He says the victim is between 20 and 40 years old, and is either white or a light skinned Hispanic woman. Officials are calling it a suspicious death. For hours Thursday the coroner's office, Salisbury Township police and state police poured over the scene. They left around 3PM and our cameras got a little closer. Just off the road we found burned trees and a blackened guardrail.
"It's unsettling," said Cassick. "I'll be happier when I at least know what happened."
"You just don't want to see the coroner in your neighborhood," explained Bollinger. "They do an important job, I just don't want to see it happen here."
An autopsy is scheduled for Friday morning to figure out the cause of death.
Because of how badly the body was burned the coroner is still working to ID the woman.

It might not all be in the genes, but they cant hurt.
Following a loss and draw in his last two contests, the son of 1976 U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist Howard Davis, 29-year old Super Middleweight Dyah Davis (19-2-1, 9 KO) of Coconut Creek, Florida, showed growth and picked up his finest win to date with a unanimous decision over ten rounds against formerly undefeated 25-year old Marcus Johnson (20-1, 15 KO) of Houston, Texas.

Each year, a number of people across the country die on the roadways due to a driver operating their vehicle at unsafe speeds. If speeding is coupled with impairment, the combination can easily lead to a fatal accident. Troopers with the Louisiana State Police believe that speed was a factor in a recent crash that took the lives of two men, but they are not yet certain whether impairment was a factor as well.
The two men were traveling east on U.S. Highway 190 in the outside, right-hand lane. As they approached another vehicle ahead of them in the same lane, the driver failed to slow down for an as yet unknown reason. His vehicle slammed into the back of the one in front of it.

NRF downgrades retail sales forecast after sluggish start to 2014
by MBJ Staff
Published: July 24,2014
Tags: Consumer, economy, forecast, Jack Kleinhenz, Matthew Shay, Monthly Economic Review, National Retail Federation, retail, sales, spending
WASHINGTON — The National Retail Federation has lowered its retail sales forecast for 2014 because of slow growth recorded during the first half of the year, but said sales are expected to grow significantly faster over the next five months.
NRF forecasted in January that retail sales would grow 4.1 percent in 2014 over 2013, but today's revision lowers the forecast to 3.6 percent.
NRF calculated that sales grew 2.9 percent during the first half of the year and are expected to grow at least 3.9 percent during the second half. The numbers include general retail sales and non-store sales, and exclude automobiles, gasoline stations and restaurants.
"No retailer was immune to the doldrums witnessed during the first quarter, and as a result, the year's growth trajectory was impacted," said NRF president and CEO Matthew Shay. "That said, there is plenty of evidence that the second half of the year will be better for the industry as consumers begin to feel more optimistic about their spending decisions. And though we maintain realistic expectations of retail sales growth in 2014, we are optimistic that the chances for a stronger economy still exist."
"The severe weather and other factors we experienced earlier this year have taken their toll on retail, but most of those problems are behind us," said NRF Chief Economist Jack Kleinhenz. "A second look at our forecast shifted our expectations slightly, but it's important to note that the outlook is positive. Sales are growing and we expect them to continue at a moderate pace."
In this month's Monthly Economic Review, Kleinhenz noted, "…one of the worst winters in recent memory kept shoppers home during the first quarter, and weak numbers for real estate, inventories and exports continued to hamper the economy through the second quarter. However, employment has grown at its strongest pace since 2005, business and consumer confidence have edged higher, manufacturing activity has expanded and inflation pressures remain tame, improving expectations for the second and third quarters."

Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Alcides Escobar drove in the game-winning run in the bottom of the 11th inning as the Kansas City Royals completed a three-game sweep of the Cleveland Indians with a 7-6 win on Thursday at Kauffman Stadium.
Eric Hosmer got the rally started with a single leading off the frame, moved to second on a perfect sacrifice bunt from Chris Getz and took third on a wild pitch by Indians pitcher Esmil Rodgers (1-1). Alex Gordon was intentionally walked to put runners on the corners for Escobar against Cleveland closer Chris Perez.
Perez took control early in the at-bat, getting Escobar to swing over two sliders to move the count to 0-2. But Escobar stayed composed and slapped a 1-2 fastball through the left side of the infield for his first career walk- off hit.
Aaron Crow (2-1) was credited with the win after tossing a scoreless top of the inning.
Hosmer smoked a three-run home run and Gordon added a solo shot for the Royals, who earned the sweep on the heels of a five-game slide.
Carlos Santana ripped a two-run long ball and finished with four RBI, while Michael Brantley and Vinny Rottino also knocked in runs for the Tribe, who have dropped their last six games.
Kansas City opened the scoring in a big way in their first at-bat, putting up six runs. Gordon led off the frame with a rocket over the wall in right and Escobar singled and stole second before scoring via a Lorenzo Cain base hit. Brayan Pena walked three batters later and Hosmer clobbered a three-run shot deep over the wall in straightaway center field, making it 5-0.
Getz laced a triple into the right-field corner and scored when Jarrod Dyson poked a base hit into right.
"It's great to put some runs on the board early," said Getz. "I feel like we've done it this whole series. We've had that big inning and it put us in the driver's seat, but obviously they came back tonight. It just shows even though you put up that big inning that you've got to keep grinding away."
The Indians got a run back in the second on a sacrifice fly by Rottino, and added three more runs in the third to cut the deficit to two.
Shin-Soo Choo ripped a one-out single up the middle and Brent Lillibridge and Asdrubal Cabrera followed with consecutive singles to load the bases. Santana smoked a two-run single into right and Brantley capped the frame with a sacrifice fly, scoring Cabrera.
Lillibridge began the Cleveland fifth with a solid base hit to left before trotting home when Santana got a hanging curveball from Royals pitcher Everett Teaford and smoked it over the wall in right, tying the game at six.
"After five really tough losses and them going up 6-0 in the first inning, we just scored one and added one, then scored a couple more and got the tie," said Lillibridge. "We really thought we were going to win this game. We were going to pull it through."
It was Hosmer's first home run since June 25...Cleveland fell to 6-14 since the All-Star break...The Indians have lost more than five straight for the first time since dropping seven in a row from June 19-26 2010...Cleveland went 3-for-6 with runners in scoring position and left four on base...Royals starter Bruce Chen allowed four runs on seven hits and a walk in 2 2/3 innings...Cleveland starter Corey Kluber was charged for six runs on nine hits over 4 1/3 innings.
Perhaps the beauty of Saturday's three FCS Top 25 matchups was that all three games were happening at the same time.

J. Scott Applewhite, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Republicans are ready to muscle legislation through the House authorizing an election-year lawsuit against President Barack Obama that accuses him of exceeding his powers in enforcing his health care law.
A party-line vote — and plenty of sharp partisan rhetoric — was expected when the GOP-led chamber considers the measure Wednesday.
Democrats dismiss the proposal as a legally groundless exercise that could end up costing taxpayers millions of dollars in legal fees and other expenses.
They've branded the effort a political charade aimed at stirring up Republican voters for the fall congressional elections. They say it's also an effort by top Republicans to mollify conservatives who want Obama to be impeached — something House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Tuesday he has no plans to do.
"This lawsuit is frivolous on steroids," Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., said Tuesday as the House Rules Committee met to clear the way for Wednesday's debate. "It's absolutely insane what you all are doing."
That hasn't stopped Democrats from sending fundraising pleas to their own supporters warning that the GOP is out to impeach Obama and ruin his presidency. Using that pitch, Democrats raised $1 million Monday, according to the head of the House Democratic campaign organization, Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y.
Republicans say the House's planned legal action is warranted because Obama has violated his constitutional duty to faithfully execute the laws. They say that instead, he has enforced laws as he wants to, dangerously shifting power to the presidency from Congress.
"It is to preserve this country, the separation of powers and the rule of law," said Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C.
The lawsuit will focus on how Obama has carried out his health care overhaul, a 2010 law that is one of his most prized domestic achievements and that every GOP lawmaker opposed.
Republicans say Obama has illegally changed the law using executive actions. The White House and Democrats say he's acted legally and within the latitude he's empowered to use as chief executive.
In particular, Republicans have objected that Obama has twice delayed the law's so-called employer mandate, which he did under pressure from business groups. The provision requires companies with 50 or more employees working at least 30 hours weekly to offer health care coverage or pay fines, while businesses with fewer than 50 workers are exempt.
The requirement was initially to take effect this year. Now, companies with 50 to 99 employees have until 2016 to comply, while bigger companies have until next year.
Republicans say there are other examples of Obama exceeding his powers. These include failing to notify Congress in advance when he traded five Taliban members held at the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for the captive Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, and unilaterally preventing the deportation of some children who illegally immigrated to the U.S.
They also point to Obama's comments in January that 2014 would be a "year of action" to implement his priorities, which he said he would do "with or without Congress" by using his "pen and the phone."
"Such a shift in power should alarm members of both political parties because it threatens the very institution of the Congress," said a GOP-written report accompanying the legislation.

Gauchos Judios
ESTHER AZERETZKY, 84, pours a mug of mate, the Argentine national hot drink..

JEWISH IMMIGRATION to Argentina began during Spanish colonial times, as Jews fled the strong arm of the Spanish Inquisition to the open expanses of the New World. However, perhaps the most colorful chapter in the history of Argentine Jewry began in the late 1800s, when Jews escaping East European pogroms were among the many immigrants making their way to the country thanks to its open-door policy.With the help of French Jewish philanthropist Baron Maurice de Hirsch, who had founded the Jewish Colonization Association to build autonomous agricultural settlements for Eastern European Jews, Jewish settlements were established in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Entre Rios and Santa Fe.
Named after its benefactor, Moiseville became the first and most well-known of the Jewish villages in Santa Fe Province. It still has a viable Jewish life, with a working synagogue, museum and a Jewish school.Neighboring villages, such as Palacios, Las Palmeras, and Monigote, which were once thriving Jewish communities, did not fare as well.Jews established these villages and homesteads, struggling with the new land, new language and new culture, but eventually building a working relationship with and learning from the local gauchos.But a recently published book by Argentine Jewish reporter Javier Sinay recounts the cases of 22 unsolved murders of Jewish farmers, children and women between the years 1889-1906 by gauchos of Spanish descent who at first resisted the presence of the new immigrants.At 84, Esther Azeretzky is one of the last Jews still living in what was once the mainly Jewish community of Las Palmeras – the settlement where my own paternal great-grandfather immigrated to from Russia, and where my paternal grandmother was born and raised; here, too, my paternal grandfather immigrated as a child with his siblings to live with an uncle when his parents died in a typhus epidemic in Russia in the early 1900s. She is very excited to know I am her old friend Esther's granddaughter.Though I have visited Argentina numerous times, and spent lots of time in the nearby village of my mother's family that was founded by Swiss immigrants at about the same time as the Jewish settlements, this is the first time I have ever visited Las Palmeras. I remember my grandmother, who eventually went to live in Rosario and then Buenos Aires, going back to Las Palmeras every so often to check on the farm land that still belonged to her family there.Now, there are another four Jewish families still living in Las Palmeras, comprising a dozen people, Azeretzky says. Sometimes they still go to nearby Moiseville, where there are more Jews for a Shabbat service or to visit with Jewish friends there.Her son, Jorge Ulmansky, 58, still works as a dairy farmer. After a day of flooding rains, he is out trying to salvage crops when I run into Maria Bongiovanni, his wife, as I take pictures of the old Jewish Library that now serves as part of the village's home for the elderly."My mother-in-law is Jewish," she says pleasantly, as she leads me to Azeretzky.When I tell the older woman my grandmother's name, she lights up. "She was the most beautiful girl in the village," Azeretzky recalls plying us with mate, the Argentine national hot drink, and the kind of crispy homemade cookies my grandparents liked to eat.

New Zealand had a eureka moment this week, and the implications of it are likely to resonate for years.
The discovery of the remnants of the pink and white terraces under 60m of water at the bottom of Lake Rotomahana near Rotorua is arguably the most significant scientific discovery made in this country in decades.
The terraces were considered the eighth wonder of the world until they disappeared in the eruption of Mount Tarawera in 1886.
The discovery of what is believed to be the lower two steps of the pink terraces has solved the riddle of whether the terraces were completely obliterated by the eruption. Clearly, a good portion survived. The joint research team who discovered the remains think there may be up to 80m of the terraces under the lake, and there is still a huge amount of work to be done to explore the remains. There could be more under the lake.
The news made headlines around the world, and predictably caused huge ripples in the scientific world. The fact that this buried treasure has been sitting under our feet for 125 years, and there could be much more down there, makes the discovery all the more tantalising.
The terraces represent much more than a scientific curiosity. In the 19th century they were the genesis for tourism in this country, the forerunner of everything from jet boating to whale watch tours.
For local iwi they represent a terrible tragedy. In the early hours of June 10 1886 the peace was shattered by a series of massive eruptions that buried local settlements, taking more than 100 lives and injuring many others.
The discovery raises a lot of challenges. Local iwi have a potential new tourism drawcard on their hands, but how do you exploit something that lies beneath 60m of water? Can it be done sensitively?
The researchers also found there could be potential for geothermal power generation from the lake, which could be a possible moneyspinner for the region.
There can be no excuses for mucking this great opportunity up. New Zealand is already good at tourism, and the terraces could be the next big thing.
Ngai Tahu's whale watch venture at Kaikoura shows how business savvy iwi can successfully harness the potential of tourism with minimal environmental impact.
We have a good example closer to home. For years South Canterbury had been figuratively sitting on its Maori Rock Art treasure. The opening of Te Ana Ngai Tahu Rock Art Centre in Timaru last year means our treasure is now there for all to see.
New Zealand's new Pompei has huge potential, and it will be great to see it realised.

Request for contacting Congress about Mississippi River
We respectfully urge that authority provided under Section 501(b) of the Stafford Act be used immediately to declare an emergency, and that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers specifically be directed to:
- Release measured, but sufficient, flows from Missouri River reservoirs dams to maintain a 9-foot navigation channel on the Mississippi River. Such efforts will sustain commercial navigation in anticipation of potential releases of less water during the spring navigation season if winter rains and snows do not materialize to adequately replenish these reservoirs.
- Waive federal acquisition rules to expedite the agency's contract-award procedures and order that the Corps take immediate action to remove the rock pinnacles near Grand Tower and Thebes, Ill. Combined with reduced water levels, these rock formations – remnants from earlier blasting to clear the channel – present significant hazards to navigation. The Corps has indicated that absent such action, work would not begin until February 2013 and would take up to 60 days to complete – a totally unacceptable outcome given what is at stake. It is important to emphasize that while removal of these rocks should be helpful, this action in-and-of-itself is not expected to fully alleviate the need for Missouri River flows to maintain navigation.
The Mississippi River "superhighway" is essential to U.S. agriculture, serving as the primary means for transporting essential agricultural inputs, such as fertilizer, and providing access to domestic and international markets for U.S. farmers' production. Navigation during the next few months is particularly critical for securing supplies for the 2013 planting season and marketing of the 2012 grain and oilseed crop.
During a typical weather year, nearly 60 percent of U.S. grain and oilseed exports – including more than 2.5 billion bushels of corn and soybeans – typically transit the Mississippi River. Even during this drought-plagued crop year, the United States is projected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to export more than 65 million metric tons of grains (primarily corn, sorghum, wheat and rice) and nearly 37 million metric tons of soybeans. U.S. agricultural exports, including value-added products such as meat, represent one of the few positive contributors to the U.S. balance of trade. Now is the most critical time for such exports, as the United States even in a drought year represents the principal source of corn and soybean exports prior to the onset of the South American harvest next spring and summer.

10 Vine-Ripened, Tomato-Inspired Finds for Your Table
Tabletop Roundup
The phrase "pops of color" has been used and abused profusely over recent years. Call me crazy, but I don't want anyone to walk into my kitchen and proclaim, "Holy accent color! It looks like a tomato in here!" Instead, I want them to feel like they've found the place where the garden meets plate, and these 10 tomato-tastic tabletop finds are exactly that!
Desperately Seeking an Organized Kitchen
Liveblogging The Kitchn Cure Fall 2014
Day 1 Task: Make a List of What You Like and Dislike In Your Kitchen
I've been looking forward to taking the Kitchn Cure for some time now. You see, I need help: I'm probably the least organized and least design-focused on The Kitchn team. I've found it difficult to really invest in a kitchen (or home for that matter) when I seem to move every year in Brooklyn (New York rent prices being what they are). But no more!
Today's assignment was actually really fun: Just walk around your kitchen and say what you like and hate about it? Oh let me count the ways.
Why a Serrated Knife Is the Best Tool to Slice Tomatoes
Tips from The Kitchn
While those big knife blocks seem to send the message that every kitchen needs a dozen knives, it's really not true. Invest in a good chef's knife and small paring knife and those can take care of almost all of your slicing and dicing needs.
There is one more knife, however, that is essential for cutting bread and tomatoes: the serrated knife.
Up Your Dinner Party Game with These Edible Fruit Kabob Place Cards!
Tips from The Kitchn
Up until now I haven't used place cards for dinner parties or brunch get-togethers. My gatherings are usually casual and on the small side - just my boyfriend and a few close friends. I always felt like I needed a larger group or a fancy occasion to warrant place cards.
That is, until I discovered these super-fun, edible fruit kabob place cards! They're totally irresistible. From now on, there's fruit kabob place cards for everyone!
What to Store in Your Refrigerator Humidity Drawers
Tips from The Kitchn
Do you actually know how to set the crisper or humidity drawers in your fridge? Or do you just bump the notches towards the middle as a safety precaution?
As to the contents of those drawers, perhaps you fill them haphazardly: all greens in one drawer, fruits in the other, everything else where there's room. Sounds good enough, until some things seem to go bad faster than others! It's high time you learn how to use these refrigerator drawers properly... for the fruits and veggies' sake!

3 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Leave Your Ice in the Trays
Tips from The Kitchn
When it comes to beverages, I like extreme temperatures: either icy cold or super hot. This means I need to have a steady supply of ice available at all times to make me happy. Since my freezer's ice maker is broken, the ice trays are constantly used to make sure that my cocktails, iced tea, or water are properly chilled.
Like most people, I used to just keep the ice in the trays and pop out cubes as needed. In recent years, though, I've taken the extra step of transferring the ice into freezer bags and using it from there instead. Why do this seemingly fussy step? Here are 3 good reasons why you shouldn't store ice in the trays.

Judge slams banks defrauded by fake tycoon
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Estelle Shirbon | January 18, 2013 7:28 AM EST
A British judge sentenced a fake property tycoon to seven years in jail on Thursday for defrauding two banks out of over 700 million pounds ($1.1 billion), but said the banks deserved some blame for poor risk controls.
"The two banks, Allied Irish Banks and Bank of Scotland, have undoubtedly acted carelessly and imprudently by failing to make full enquiries before advancing the money," said judge Andrew Goymer as he sentenced Achilleas Kallakis, 44.
Kallakis was convicted by a jury at London's Southwark Crown Court on Wednesday of two counts of conspiracy to defraud, in one of Britain's biggest-ever property scams.
Co-defendant Alexander Williams, 44, was convicted of the same counts for his role in producing forged documents to back up Kallakis's applications for loans. Judge Goymer sentenced him to five years in jail.
"Both defendants took full advantage of the prevailing banking culture in which corners were cut and checks on applications were superficial and cursory," the judge said.
The case stems from a series of loans worth a total of 740 million pounds secured by the fraudsters from Allied Irish Banks Plc between 2003 and 2008.
Lax paperwork and weak background checks were hallmarks of Irish banking before the country's property bubble burst in 2008. Banks competed with each other to attract real-estate developers and often relied on personal guarantees to lend them individual loans running to hundreds of millions of euros.
The property binge precipitated Ireland's financial crisis and eventual EU-IMF bailout.
The conviction of Kallakis and Williams is a success for Britain's cash-strapped Serious Fraud Office (SFO), which was widely criticised last year for a botched investigation into the dealings of property barons Vincent and Robert Tchenguiz.
In another SFO victory on Thursday that had echoes of the Kallakis case, the director of a sub-prime loan company was sentenced in his absence to 7-1/2 years in jail for defrauding creditors including Barclays Plc to the tune of 100 million pounds.
The SFO said in a statement that Waheed Luqman, who fled Britain in 2011 after he was charged and is believed to be in Pakistan, was a director of Lexi Holdings, a property finance company that went into administration in 2006 with debts of over 100 million pounds.
He conspired with other members of his family to defraud creditors of the company, including Barclays which was its main lender, between 2000 and 2006, the SFO said.
"The Lexi accounts were doctored to create a false picture of the company's profitability and creditworthiness. Money was drained out of the company to family members in Pakistan," the SFO said.
A spokesman for Bank of Scotland, now part of Lloyds Banking Group Plc described the crime as "a sophisticated fraud committed by determined individuals" and said the bank had uncovered the fraud itself and had assisted the SFO.
At Allied Irish, a spokeswoman declined to comment on the judge's remarks.
During a four-month trial, the jury heard that Kallakis had used the funds he obtained to build up a portfolio of 16 properties and to pay for his fleet of chauffeur-driven Bentleys, a private plane and helicopter and luxury yacht moored in Monaco.
The second count was related to a separate loan worth 29 million euros obtained between 2007 and 2008 from Bank of Scotland to convert a ferry into a super-yacht.
The loan was approved but only 5.7 million euros had been paid out when suspicions were raised.
The judge said the defendants had gambled and lost on the London property market, hoping that the fake guarantees they offered the banks would never be called in because the market "would go on expanding towards infinity".
"While I do not equate the position of the banks with that of a householder or car owner who forgets to secure his house or car and becomes the victim of burglary or theft, they do bear some responsibility for what happened," said Goymer.
The judge noted that Bank of Scotland had been warned by its lawyers about the risks of accepting a particular letter of assurance from a Swiss lawyer backing up Kallakis's application for a loan.
"It almost beggars belief that senior management chose to disregard that warning in its rush to complete the deal at all costs," he said.
