Slovakia: You get a car, you get a car, everybody pays their taxes.
By Bill Humphrey April 19, 2014 - 11:45 pm September 22, 2016 Arsenal Analysis
Gotta love clever governance solutions. Slovakia is trying to fight business tax cheats who are pocketing value-added (sales) taxes, which hurts both consumers/manufacturers and the government. The country came very close to requiring a bailout last year because its economy and debt situation was such a mess. So their revenue loss solution was to host a lottery with huge prizes, from almost $14k cash to a new car and more. The only thing you had to do to enter was upload receipts for things you had purchased with VATs on them (almost everything).
The government then checks to see if the business paid up the tax listed on the receipt (and the buyer can report fake tax numbers, too). The consumer is entered to win either way. You can enter over and over by uploading lots of receipts — which is why nearly half a million people have uploaded 60 million receipts since the program began last year.
Tax collection began to increase early in 2013 and rose more sharply after the lottery began. Officials say they collected about $512 million more in 2013 than in 2012. How much of that is a result of the lottery may never be clear.
But Mr. Kazimir said that it was surely a big factor, and that it had cost only about $276,000 to get the lottery going. He said the new influx of complaints had already proved that it was not just small businesses that were cheating: Chain stores have also been caught giving fake receipts.
It’s been so successful that Portugal just launched its own lottery this past week.
The lottery project has drawn criticism from some Portuguese opposition politicians who say it is a capitalist tool to turn citizens into tax inspectors.
Hell yes it is… and there is nothing wrong with that. Tax evasion is a cancer on democratic societies because it both undermines confidence in the fairness of the taxation system and erodes the government’s ability to invest in infrastructure and provides services, which reduces its credibility. And it’s even worse when that evasion is on value-added taxes that consumers and manufacturers have already had to pay up front, without the government seeing a dime. It’s essentially theft from the people, really.
Arming ordinary citizens with the power to help enforce tax compliance strengthens democracy and governance. Doing it in such a light-handed way is brilliant and virtually painless. The only people who lose are those who are already breaking the law and stealing revenue.
You get a car, you get a car, everybody pays their taxes.

North Korea, Kim Jong Will Perhaps Take Part to International Nuclear Disarmament Talks
by Enrica Garzilli, 6 Jan 2010 | in news | no comments yet
The new year starts well. North Korean authorities, in fact, signal that leader Kim Jong may visit China, the biggest benefactor of the country. The aim of this visit should be whether he will end his boycott of international nuclear disarmament talks. There is still hope on Earth!
The US Defense Bill 2010
by Ludovico Magnocavallo, 27 Oct 2009 | in news | no comments yet
To make sure we're spending our defense dollars wisely, we're cutting tens of billions of dollars in waste and projects that even the military says it doesn't need — money better spent on taking care of you and your families and building the 21st century military that we do need. (IBN)
Wise speech of Barack Obama before signing the defense bill this week. The bill, which funds Pentagon operations, had authorized a few unnecessary programs. Mr Obama allocated "only" USD 560 million this year.
Once signed the bill, the law will raise military pay by 3.4 % and assign USD 6.7 billion for mine-resistant armored vehicles. Another USD 7.5 billion will be used for the Afghan army. Apparently, Obama has not planned to solve the Afghan situation by political means yet.
The Future Media Empire of China
by Enrica Garzilli, 6 Oct 2009 | in news | no comments yet
China plans to spend billions of dollars in the next few years to develop media and entertainment companies that it hopes can compete with global giants like the News Corporation and Time Warner (The New York Times).
Apparentely, China wants to backup its rising status and power worldwide creating entertainment, news and culture companies market-oriented, giving less voice - at least a public voice - to the government.
The way to capitalism and imperialism is paved by entertainment: any big difference between China and the "bread and circuses" of the Roman Empire?
Seven ex-Soviet states discuss joint military force to counteract NATO
by Enrica Garzilli, 1 Aug 2009 | in news | no comments yet
An scary news published on France 24:
The presidents of seven ex-Soviet states are meeting in Kyrgyzstan to discuss implementing the first joint rapid-reaction force of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation, a military alliance led by Russia, intended as a counterweight to NATO. (Continue)
It is clear that the Russian Federation is seeking a new, stronger international role after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. Will we come back to the times of the Cold War?
Ramdas Sen’s House in West Bengal to be Demolished
by Enrica Garzilli, 21 Jun 2009 | in news | no comments yet
The house of the archeologist Ramdas Sen (1845 -1887) in Baharampur, West Bengal, declared by the state government as a heritage building, will be demolished. This is the house where the famous Bengali writer, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhya, author of the national song of India Vande Mataram, organised a literary circle and first published his magazine, Banga-Darshan, with support of Ramdas. A shopping centre on the spot of the demolished portion of the building will be built. This is the full article.
Indian Elections 2009
by Enrica Garzilli, 3 May 2009 | in news | no comments yet
The Indian elections 2009 are reaching a crescendo with the growth of the BJP. The 15th Lok Sabha, which is is composed of representatives of the people chosen by direct election on the basis of the adult suffrage, is elected in five phases on April 16, April 22-April 23, April 30, May 7 and May 13.
According to the DNA (Daily News & Analysis) "the Congress and the BJP are locked in a fierce fight for emerging as the single largest party at the end of three rounds of polling. [...] There are two reasons for the BJP's surge. One, the party seems to have retained ground in its core areas like Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Two, it is expected to register gains in Jharkhand, Bihar and Assam. However, the surge is likely to halt in the next two phases when its loss areas, Rajasthan and Punjab, will poll".
The results of the election will be announced on May 16, 2009.

CBS intentionally violated posted gun show rules in phony undercover stunt
Bullet Button’ Used To Get Around California Gun Laws,” CBS 5 San Francisco reported Tuesday.
“CBS 5 went undercover to a recent gun show at the Cow Palace in Daly City and found ‘California legal’ assault rifles throughout,” they claim.
It’s a non-story, really, as their undercover team found nothing illegal—they weren’t even looking for that—or that couldn’t have been obtained openly. The entire purpose of the “investigation” appears to be to gin up public frenzy about a legal device that allows for changing magazines on semi-automatic firearms that comply with California’s specific model and cosmetic features bans.
“I've emailed the gun show proprietors and asked them if they post signs prohibiting unauthorized photographs and recording of patrons and dealers,” this columnist noted on The War on Guns blog. “I also note the covert video includes audio, and California appears to be a two-party consent state, which raises the question of whether or not our intrepid ‘undercover reporters’ were the only lawbreakers in the room--funny, though, how they choose not to do covert ops against the population causing all the ‘gun’ problems. “
That is, no doubt, because criminal populations actually are breaking laws, and they’re dangerous people to be around, which indicates there’s a real story to be had, as opposed to a manufactured one exploiting peaceable people minding their own business. Had CBS 5 wished to discuss bullet buttons or any other fallout from California’s ridiculous and ineffective anti-gun edicts, there would have been no shortage of resources ready and willing to meet them face-to-face and provide their audience with informed guidance. The entire “undercover” rationale was unjustified from the beginning, designed to create the illusion that viewers were being provided a straight news exposé by hard-boiled reporters, instead of by mob-inciting “Authorized Journalist” hacks with plenty of agenda but not much in the way of respect for traditional ethics and canons of journalism.

Cheeses of the world
Stinking Bishop
Soft cheese with washed rind
Stinking Bishop is an English cow's milk, which has been produced by Charles Martell and Son since 1972 at the farm of Laurel, Gloucestershire. The name of Stinking Bishop comes from the name of a variety of pear which grows in the region. According to the legend, Stinking Bishop's origins date back to Cistercian monks from the village of Dymock who used to produce cheeses soaked in diverse liqueurs. The white, creamy and mild texture is covered of a grey orange rind. In the shape of a flattened sphere, Stinking Bishop weighs 2 kg and measures 20 cm by 4 cm. The milk comes from the cattle of the region; the cows of this cattle belong to a rare species that Charles Martell wanted to preserve. As its name shows, this cheese has a strong smell, some people comparing it to the smell of old socks. The smell is the result of washings done every four weeks in pear brandy.

“Vers un imaginaire numérique” Exhibition
Vers un imaginaire numérique
Dates: 15 September to 07 November 2021
General opening*: Wednesday, 15 September 2021 from 6:00-8:00pm
Curators: Daniel Cardoso Llach and Theodora Vardouli
*Due to the current restrictions related to Covid-19, there will be no official opening ceremony.
The new exhibition Vers un imaginaire numérique curated by SoA Associate Professor Daniel Cardoso Llach in collaboration with McGill Assistant Professor Theodora Vardouli opens 15 September 2021 at the Centre de design de l’UQAM in Montréal, Canada. The exhibition explores the emergence of new methods for design representation, simulation, and manufacturing linked to digital computers’ capacities for information processing and display, and reflects on its contemporary repercussions across architecture, art, and design.
The 4,000 sqft show expands and adapts to the Canadian context Prof. Cardoso’s show Designing the Computational Image, Imagining Computational Design initially presented at the Miller Institute of Contemporary Art at Carnegie Mellon University. The exhibition takes both a historical and contemporary look at the role of digital tools in the process of generation of forms in design and architecture. Showcasing a unique selection of photographs, films, high-quality reproductions, interactive software reconstructions, and works by present-day practitioners, it examines the confluence of technical developments in graphics and software with the emergence of new aesthetic languages and theoretical sensibilities in design, architecture, and other creative fields.
A team of Computational Design students including Jinmo Rhee, Emek Erdolu, Erik Ulberg, Maria Vlachostergiou, and Mali Tribune contributed to the show’s curation and design, and to the preparation of several interactive pieces that will be on display in Montréal.

ABC - 23/7 Kerry seeks ceasefire
Print Facebook Twitter
Kerry seeks ceasefire
Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Broadcast: 23/07/2014
Reporter: Hayden Cooper
US Secretary of State John Kerry has made a surprise visit to Tel Aviv in his mission to achieve a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza.
EMMA ALBERICI, PRESENTER: In the past few hours, US Secretary of State John Kerry has made a surprise visit to Tel Aviv as his mission for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza continues. Mr Kerry's plane landed at Ben Gurion Airport just a day after the US Federal Aviation Administration suspended civilian flights to Israel. He'll meet with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to try and broker a truce to end the bitter fighting, which has claimed more than 600 lives. Middle East correspondent Hayden Cooper reports.
HAYDEN COOPER, REPORTER: The US Secretary of State flies in to Tel Aviv, the latest stop in his diplomatic tour. John Kerry is trying to edge the two sides towards a cease-fire.
His flight was one of few to land here today. With air traffic authorities nervous about flying near war zones, US and European airlines have halted flights to and from Tel Aviv.
The decision came after one rocket from Gaza landed too close for comfort, prompting an evacuation of Ben Gurion Airport.
EYEWITNESS: The whole airport rushed into the bomb shelters and it was terrifying.
HAYDEN COOPER: As the conflict enters its third week, diplomats have arrived seeking a solution.
BAN KI-MOON, UN SECRETARY-GENERAL: My message to the Israelis and Palestinians is the same: stop fighting, start talking and take on the root causes of the conflict.
HAYDEN COOPER: The UN chief met the Israeli leader, who sounds as determined as ever.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER: Israel has no option but to defend itself and this is what we're doing, as is our right.
HAYDEN COOPER: But the Palestinian President says ending the violence is up to Israel.
MAHMOUD ABBAS, PALESTINIAN PRESIDENT (voiceover translation): The occupation forces have crossed all lines and broken all humanitarian and international laws and ethics.
HAYDEN COOPER: Throughout the night and into the day, the Israeli assault on Gaza continued.
Hamas claims it's captured an Israeli soldier in the territory. 21-year-old Oron Shaul disappeared on Sunday, presumed dead by Israeli authorities. But his family holds out hope.
RACHAELI GAZIT, COUSIN (voiceover translation): As long as the Army are still working and there are no decisive findings on the issue, the family does not consider Oron to be a fallen soldier.
HAYDEN COOPER: In Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, the body count keeps rising.
For a cease-fire to work, the diplomats need a deal that allows both sides to claim victory. Ending this war will prove more difficult than starting it.
Hayden Cooper, Lateline.

conclusion of act 4 scene 1 merchant of venice
The Merchant of Venice Act 4 Scene 1 Summary Workbook Answers The Merchant of Venice Act 4 Scene 1 Summary. Thus she, like Shylock, decides to stand on the absolute letter of Venetian law: Shylock may indeed claim “a pound of flesh, to be by him cut off / Nearest the merchant’s heart.” She can declare this, knowing full well that Shylock’s knife will never touch Antonio. 5 3 customer reviews. She says that Shylock cannot have the money as he himself denied it earlier. He answers that hp agreed to the bond. This, then, rather than the legal quibbles, is what is important in this scene. Bassanio then tries to reason with Shylock’— but without success. She tells Shylock that she has seen sufficient proof that Shylock seeks Antonio’s life both directly and indirectly. This engaging and informative lesson enables students to make clear, detailed and well-informed interpretations of Act IV Scene I of The Merchant of Venice. You can simply go through the answer from the images displayed below. However, he cannot let a drop of Christian blood spill, for if he did so, then by the laws of Venice his lands would be confiscated. He then turns to Antonio and tells him that early the next morning they will “fly toward Belmont.”. English Maths Physics Chemistry Biology. The trial scene of ‘The Merchant of Venice’ is the most famous and powerful scene of the play in the whole of English dramas. Author: Created by TandLGuru.

The duke then asks Shylock a question: “How shalt thou hope for mercy, rendering none?” In reply, Shylock cites the mistreatment of many Venetian slaves by the Venetians themselves, justified by the fact that they bought the slaves and can treat them as they please; likewise, the pound of flesh which he has “dearly bought” belongs to him, and he can do with it as he pleases.

At odds over minimum wage
LOH FOON FONG and RAHIMY ABD RAHIM newsdesk@thestar.com.my
PETALING JAYA: Workers unions and public interest groups welcome the proposal to set up a National Wages Consultative Council to study a single minimum wage for all sectors but employers are still opposing a standard minimum wage for all sectors.
“A single minimum wage will ensure better income distribution for all,” said Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) president Mohd Khalid Atan.
He said MTUC had asked for a RM900 minimum wage plus RM300 hardship allowance for all sectors during week-long minimum wage laboratory discussions by various stakeholders which ended on Monday.
He was commenting on reports that the Government would set up the council to study the single minimum wage for all sectors before it is incorporated into the proposed National Minimum Wages Act 2011.
Mohd Khalid said the proposal, which is expected to be tabled in Parliament in March, was generally accepted except by the Malaysian Employers Association (MEF).
MEF executive director Shamsuddin Bardan said employers did not want a minimum wage system but wanted the Government to enhance workers’ skills and promote skills certification.
“Employers are willing pay for certain set of skills and subsequently, workers’ wages will improve,” he said, adding that workers would suffer if employers could not pay high wages and fold their business.
“If we want to be a high-income nation, it ought to be based on skills and performance,” he said.
The issue of illegal workers must also be addressed because it pulls down wage levels, he said.
Cuepacs secretary-general Ahmad Shah Mohd suggested that the Government implement minimum wage for civil servants according to the officer’s minimum pension rates.
Fomca secretary-general Muhammad Sha’ani Abdullah said minimum wage would not eliminate poverty, hence, the Government needed to subsidise health care, education, housing and public transport.
Goods and Services Tax should also be implemented soon to make companies more transparent rather than hide their income and claim that they could not pay a minimum wage, he said.
Security Services Association of Malaysia president Datuk Shaheen Mirza Habib said a single minimum wage system for all sectors would be better than different minimum wages for various sectors.
“I would not want my security workers to move to another industry just because the industry pays better,” he said.

Legend of Shoreham-Wading River Baseball
Coach Sal Mignano who coined the phrase “Hardball with Class” was honored in August of 2014 as he retired after 38 years of coaching Varsity Baseball at Shoreham-Wading River High School. As many former players shared their accolades, the Foundation presented Coach Mignano with a bronze plaque that is now an important part of the Memorial Field. The sign reads:
Sal Mignano
“The Legend of Shoreham-Wading River Baseball”
Head Coach 1977-2014
After initiating the baseball program Sal Mignano directed the Wildcats to 32 playoff appearances, 12 league titles, 7 County championships and 1 New York State Championship in his 38 years of coaching. His passion for the game of baseball was immeasurable. He prided himself on running a program that exemplified “Hardball With Class”. The victories and championships are there to count, but the true measure of this man is the scores of young lives he has permanently touched.

Phone call to a Legionnaire identifies need for TFA grant
COVID-19 has caused job losses and financial stress on families as Walter Culberson knows all too well. After losing his job last April because of the pandemic and spending months job searching with hearing “denial after denial,” the family’s savings account was becoming depleted, creating a risk of utilities being shut off.
It was a phone call made to Culberson that helped the Legionnaire keep a stable environment for his wife and two kids, age 14 and 12.
Once Dennis Smith receives a list of members transferred from the American Legion Department of Tennessee headquarters post into Desmond T. Doss Post 257 in Ooltewah, as post commander he calls each one to welcome them into their new post home.
“We make ourselves known with transfer members that we would like to meet you,” Smith said. “Staying in communication with your members, that’s what’s important. Because The American Legion is grassroots so it’s all about making that connection. We try to make that connection as soon as we can.”
So as a department transfer, Culberson was on the list to call.
When Smith connected with Culberson, the two began to speak of his family’s need for financial assistance and how The American Legion could be of help. American Legion Post 257 provided grocery and gas gift cards, and rent assistance, to provide some immediate relief.
“I tried to reach out to every veteran community for help and it was Post 257 that has gone above and beyond for my family,” Culberson said.
Smith then began the investigation process to help Culberson apply for an American Legion Temporary Financial Assistance (TFA) grant. Through TFA, The American Legion distributes one-time grants of up to $1,500 to eligible active-duty military and American Legion members in need. Grantees must have minor children in the home and the funds are designed to help meet the cost of shelter, food, utilities and health expenses so that children have a stable environment during a time of hardship.
Culberson was immediately approved for a TFA grant that paid for two months of utilities, plus helped with food and gas to make the commute for his new job with Aflac.
“The American Legion’s Temporary Financial Assistance grant establishes hope in someone who has contacted and spoken to everyone for any kind of help,” Culberson said. “We are extremely thankful and blessed and have truly felt the Lord through (The American Legion) during this time. We couldn’t have been blessed more by getting into The American Legion and look forward to our future within the organization.”
Smith shared that “as his commander, I told Walter it’s important that I get to know (the post members) as we try to look after our members. But when the needs are greater than what we can do at the post, that’s why we reached out to national – to see if he would qualify for a Temporary Financial Assistance grant and he did. Which was tremendous.”
TFA grants are made possible by donations to The American Legion Veterans and Children Foundation. The foundation supports veterans and military families in need, as well as American Legion service officers who provide free VA benefits and health care assistance to veterans. Subject to an audit, in 2020 The American Legion's TFA program provided $54,913 in cash grants that assisted 95 children of 43 veteran families.
TFA changes the lives of so many veterans and their families in their time of need. Help continue that positive change for many more families like the Culberson’s through donations to the Veterans and Children Foundation at legion.org/donate/endowment_fund.

The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt The World Has Ever Seen
Posted on August 10, 2014 by Brad
So last week I descended into the maelstrom of Internet madness. Sort of. See there’s this thing called GISHWHES, or “The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt The World has Ever Seen.” It was created by an actor named Misha Collins who you may know from the series Supernatural and a certain SyFy Channel film of note:
Basically it’s what it says it is – a scavenger hunt. In 2012 it shattered two Guinness World Records: one for the largest scavenger hunt ever, with more than 14,000 participants from 69 countries and the second, for the most pledges to commit a Random Act of Kindness.
Now living in my little bubble I had never heard of GISHWHES and was totally in the dark about its existence until one, then another person emailed me out of the blue thru this very website to ask if I could help their team out. The task they had been given was “have a published Sci Fi author write a 140 word story about Misha Collins, the Queen, and an Elopus (an Octopus with an Elephant’s head)”.
Apparently this “get” was a major one, given that authors and writers tend to be a curmudgeonly lot who avoid doing anything for anybody unless it involves money exchanging hands. But as we all know I’m not one of those writers. And to me the challenge of telling a story (okay, 2 stories) in 140 words or less was too good a challenge to pass up. And also because the people asking seemed really nice and enthusiastic and were doing a lot of charitable work as part of their work, and we so rarely get chances to do good in a world that seems full of bad.
So I wrote two stories. And with GISHWHES 2014 wrapped, I am publishing them below for your reading enjoyment.
Story #1: “Investiture”
He tried not to tremble as the sword rose before him, but as she spoke the hairs on his neck stood rigid.
“May I borrow your sword?” he asked politely.
He didn’t wait for an answer, snatching the blade and pivoting clean as the beast released its suction grip on the rafters high above and dropped, trumpeting its battle cry. He swung the sword, separating the Elopus’ head from its neck. The eight limbed body sprayed ink as it spasmed uncontrollably. The head bounced off the marble floor and landed upright, its trunk limp, its eyes already fogging over. Then, silence.
He handed the sword back. “Sorry your majesty, that Elopus has been hunting me since Cairo.”
“We see we weren’t hasty in our decision” the Queen smiled. She touched the sword to his shoulder. “Rise, Sir Misha Collins.
Story #2: “Elopus Apocalypse”
The Elopus lunged, limbs flailing, trunk blaring its battle cry. It lurched — and shuddered to a halt. Expletives sounded deep within the rubber suit.
“Goddamn it, CUT!”
Technicians raced in and removed the mask. The sweaty operator gasped for air. The director threw his script down angrily.
Misha handed his prop gun off and took a seat in his folding chair. They were already a day behind on a twelve day shoot and SyFy would not be happy. Someone tapped his shoulder gently. “Cappuccino, he said without looking. The hand tapped again and this time he looked.
“Sir Misha Collins?” the clipped British tones asked. The man was dressed formal, an envelope with the Royal Sigil in hand. Misha took it, opened, and read.
He was on the next flight to Heathrow. SyFy could wait. The Queen could not.
I like to think of them as sequels to each other, with “Elopus Apocalypse” being part of a new trend of SyFy Channel movies based on true stories. My only regret is I didn’t get a third request where I’d be able to finish the trilogy. Maybe next year.
And yes I am aware this is the second (and technically third) time I’ve written something for Misha Collins. You’d think he’d return my calls by now.

COVID cases notching up; Tabor recovering
By PHYLLIS ZORN
A male in his 30s and two females in their 40s and 60s with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases are the latest of 106 cases in Marion County.
The three were placed in isolation.
Six new cases have been confirmed this past week. In addition to Monday’s three cases, a male in his 60s and female in her teens were identified Friday and a woman in her 60s was identified Wednesday.
The teen apparently was a Centre School student. The school district posted on its website Thursday that a student tested positive for COVID-19 and other students were in quarantine.
As of Tuesday, the county had six active cases with 1,842 tests given and 1,736 negative test results.
Contact tracing of the latest two cases is under way.
A close contact is defined as being within 6 feet for 10 minutes or longer.
Tabor College, which established an on-campus testing center and an isolation unit before students returned to campus for the fall semester, has no students in isolation or quarantine at the moment.
Dean of student life, learning and formation Emir Ruiz Esparza said Monday the efforts of the staff, faculty, and students have mitigated spread of the virus.
Two weeks ago 55 students —10.9% of the on-campus student body — were either in isolation or quarantine.
The health department recommends people stay home when they are sick, wear a mask in public and wash their hands.

Imagine a World where you can't Read....!
Reading is the key to unlocking a child's full potential.
Inability to read can bring alienation and delinquency, and entrench poverty.
Let's Read Ltd helps to improve the literacy of young people in the Woking area in two main ways:
- by giving free books to the pupils at 13 of the schools in Woking. Over the past 12 years we have given over 35,000 books. The pupils typically get a book of their choice each term. At present we are distributing almost a thousand books a term.
- by providing one-to-one tuition at four of Woking's primary schools. We help about sixty pupils each school year, whose schools see them as being behind in their reading skill
Let's Read Ltd is a registered charity, constituted as a company limited by guarantee.
Our funding is principally through donations from individuals or private sector organisations, either of money or of books. Every penny of the money donated for books is used to buy books for children. Woking Borough Council give us a grant and the use of a small office space. All our reading tutors and book-gifting staff are volunteers.
Join our mission to ensure every child in the Woking area is a confident reader by age 11.
Reading is the key to unlocking a child’s full potential and one of the best routes out of poverty for our poorest children. Yet in our country today too many children, including 40% of our poorest children, leave primary school without being able to read well.
Let's Read has been been tackling this for more than 21 years!
Our Charity is now back in Schools helping children to learn to read

SCORE Journal - October 2018
SCORE Journal - The Official Publication of SCORE Off-Road Racing

The Grand Finale A new decade of the SCORE BaJa 1000 begins in November 2018 By Dan Sanchez Photos by Get Some Photo As the SCORE Baja 1000 moves into its 51st year, the race still brings the excitement and challenges as it did during the very first race in 1967. Over the years, challengers and champions of off-road racing have attempted to win this most prestigious race, with the 2017 Champion Apdaly Lopez who won the 50th-anniversary race last year. The race is the culmination of four grueling races, but throughout the 2018 SCORE World Desert Championship season, some unexpected events have shaken-up the desert. Always at the top of the SCORE Trophy Truck pack, Rob MacCachren has dominated the season and is currently at the top of the points standings in the SCORE Trophy Truck division. His year began winning first place overall at the SCORE San Felipe 250, the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500, and most recently earning a second place finish at the Lucerna Hotels & Resorts Tijuana 22nd SCORE Desert Challenge. After winning the SCORE Baja 500, MacCachren could add a fifth SCORE Baja 10000 victory to his record All bets are off, however, when it comes to the SCORE Baja 1000, but there’s no doubt that MacCachren and the Rockstar Energy Team know how to win this race. He’s done it four times already, winning three of them in a row, (2007, 2014, 2015 and 2016), and teams up with equally talented racers such as Andy McMillin and Jason Voss to do it. It’s rumored that at the 51st SCORE Baja 1000, McCachren will once again team up with Jason Voss, and with a starting position up in front of the competition, he and the Rockstar Energy team may be able to add a fifth overall win to their record. Expecting The Unexpected Every experienced Baja racer will tell you that preparation and logistics are key to winning the SCORE Baja 1000, but in the end, you never know what’s going to happen. Last month’s overall win at the Lucerna Hotels & Resorts Tijuana 22nd Desert Challenge by Cameron Steele, proves that determination is a powerful tool to winning in Baja. He finished second at last year’s race and second again at the SCORE San Felipe 250 season opener. His momentum might be enough for the Desert Assassins to come together again for a great victory, and finish off the season on a huge high. Steele led most of the race in 2017 and finished second No matter what the expectations are for Steele, or many of the other racers who plan to compete in November, the fact is that there is always huge competition at the SCORE Baja 1000. Along with MacCachren and Steele, there’s a handful of other racers who consistently win in Baja and have the experience and teams to do it again. One of these is most certainly Andy McMillin, who is a five-time race winner and can win the race on his own, or driving with an experienced team. The same can be said for his cousins Luke and Dan McMillin. Luke has brought new attention to the capabilities of the McMillin clan and finished in the top three at both the SCORE San Felipe 250 (finishing third), and at the SCORE Baja 500 where he finished second. Dan McMillin also finished third at the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 1000 and fourth at the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500, but could also have a great podium finish at this year’s race. Along with the McMillin’s, one can’t dismiss anyone from the RPM Off-Road race team, including team owner Justin Matney in his 4WD Trophy Truck, and 2017 Overall Champion Apdaly Lopez. Lopez has not had a great 2018 season, but he still has the number 1 on his race truck for a reason. While he doesn’t have enough points to regain the SCORE Overall and SCORE Trophy Truck championship this season, he can win this race if he gets a good position. Lately, he’s been teaming up with his dad Juan Carlos Lopez who is also extremely experienced, but Lopez can win this race solo if he needs to and you can bet that he’s going to give it all he has. Apdaly Lopez, Andy McMillin and Luke McMillin are also contenders for winning this year’s 51st SCORE Baja 1000 The 7x team of Morgan, Jones and Samuels have dominated Pro Moto Unlimited this season Pro Moto Challengers With such competition at this year’s race, the SCORE Trophy Truck division will definitely have its fan favorites to win, but it will be equally so within the Pro Moto divisions. Last year’s winner Francisco Arredondo and his team, narrowly won the race with competition from Colton Udall, Mark Samuels and his team of talented riders. This year, the 7x team is led by Justin Morgan who teamed up with Samuels and Justin Jones to win the Pro Moto Overall at the SCORE San Felipe 250 and at the SCORE Baja 500. Jones also rode to victory at the Lucerna Hotels & Resorts Tijuana 22nd SCORE Desert Challenge to lead the pack of talented racers into a possible championship season this year. Shane Esposito carries the 1x team this year and could still win in Ensenada The 1x team is headed by Shane Esposito, and despite a fourth-place finish in San Felipe and a second place finish at the SCORE Baja 500, he and his team of riders including Max Eddy and Tyler Lynn, can’t be counted out to take the Pro Moto Unlimited class win at the SCORE Baja 1000 in November. The same can be said for Santiago Creel and his team of riders on the 66x bike, who finished in second at the SCORE San Felipe 250 and at the Lucerna Hotels & Resorts Tijuana 22nd Desert Challenge. Creel also has a talented team of riders, not only in Pro Moto Unlimited, but also in Pro Moto Limited, and Pro Moto 30 classes where they are in contention for a championship. UTV Champs Battle Another spectacular race to watch at this year’s 51st SCORE Baja 1000 is the amazing action from UTVs battling the course and each other. As these vehicles increase in speed and capability, they don’t hold back and with champion racers such as Wayne Matlock. Marc Burnett, Brandon Schueler, Brandon Sims, and many others, anyone can win. Despite the tough competition within the Pro UTV Forced Induction class, they still have to contend with Kristen Matlock in the Pro UTV N/A class who has shown she can beat them all, and could possibly win the Pro UTV Overall Championship if she pulls off another win at the SCORE Baja 1000. The Matlocks, Wayne and Kristen, are the dominant force this season in the Pro UTV classes and will be difficult to beat in Ensenada Pre-Race Experiences The start of the 51st SCORE Baja 1000 actually begins at the 2018 SEMA Show that takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada October 30th thru November 2nd. The SEMA Show is where the automotive aftermarket and racing industry gather to showcase the latest products and innovations the market has to offer. During the show, SCORE brings the Baja Experience and Qualifier Presented by BFGoodrich Tires to attendees, showcasing the vehicles, people, and passion the industry has for Baja racing. The build-up to the race continues on the evening of October 30th during the SEMA Show, where SCORE Trophy Trucks, and Trophy Truck Legend, vehicles compete for starting positions during the SCORE Baja 1000 Qualifier Presented by BFGoodrich Tires. SEMA attendees will be allowed into the event for free with their show badge, with complimentary buses leaving for the event that takes place at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The power, agility, and action of the event, gives spectators an idea of what these vehicles can do, and they’ll be present for the Dana/Spicer Fastest Qualifier Award, given to the SCORE racer who has the fastest lap times to start first at the SCORE Baja 1000. From Vegas To Ensenada Once qualifying is done in Las Vegas, teams and fans will head to Ensenada to begin preparations for the approximately 806.76-mile loop course that will start and finish in Ensenada. Racers will have a 36-hour time limit for racers to complete the grueling course. The race festivities begin with Contingency Day, where both SCORE fans and teams gather together to celebrate the race and enjoy the music, food, and drink before the seriousness of the race takes place. On race day, Friday, November 16, motorcycle and quad classes will start at 4 a.m. (PST) with the car, truck and UTV classes following at 10:30 a.m. (PST). The course is a loop race this year and includes five checkpoints and 192 virtual checkpoints. Starting in Ensenada, racers will head out of town to Kiliwas and out to Hwy 3 towards San Matias, then over to the desert in San Felipe. South of San Felipe it loops around the Amarillas Wash and comes back to Old Puertecitos Road on Huatamote Wash. It then heads south to the Sulphur mines and turns right to loop back using Matomi Wash to Old Puertecitos Highway. From Puertecitos to Gonzaga Bay and before Coco’s Corner, the race course turns south again and extends across a new trail that will take racers back to the main road out to Chapala. Here, the course goes across Hwy 1 and does a loop behind Cataviña where there are tons of silt and nasty hill climbs. Near Cataviña the course goes back across the peninsula on the east side of Hwy 1 and heads north to Rancho Victoria and more silt areas before and after this ranch in the Rm 490 to Rm 510 area. The course then drops down to El Rosario Wash and heads north to San Quintin on a fast smooth road that has never been raced on. Here the course runs north and hits the coast to Santo Tomas, taking pavement to Uruapan and back to Ojos Negros and to the finish in Ensenada. The five checkpoints will be located north of San Felipe (race mile 177.34), before Highway 1 on Chapala Road (rm 378.27), Highway 1 in San Quintin (rm 597.81), end of Vicente Guerrero Wash (rm 633.85) and in Santo Tomas before Highway 1 (rm 733.02). Because of the horrendous silt beds, Class 11 (stock VW sedans) and all Sportsman 4-wheel vehicles classes will be allowed to eliminate the Cataviña loop, taking pavement from rm 379.22 to rm 478.38.

Vermont tops Stony Brook 86-78 in return from COVID pause
BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) Stef Smith scored 22 points and Ryan Davis added 21 as Vermont defeated Stony Brook 86-78 on Saturday, ending a nearly monthlong break from basketball.
Vermont had not played since Jan. 17 against Maine, pausing team activities for COVID-19 concerns within the program.
Davis added 12 rebounds for his third double-double this season. Ben Shungu had 13 points for Vermont (8-3, 8-3 America East Conference), which earned its sixth straight win spanning the pause. Justin Mazzulla and Bailey Patella added 10 points each.
Vermont, leading 35-29 at the half, out-scored Stony Brook 51-49 in a fiery second half. The second-half point totals were a season high for both teams.
Jaden Sayles had 16 points and three blocks for the Seawolves (8-11, 6-7). Omar Habwe added 15 points. Juan Felix Rodriguez had 14 points and six assists. Mouhamadou Gueye scored 13 points with eight rebounds and Frankie Policelli added 12 points.

New Pokémon Presents On The Way With New Look At Pokémon Legends: Arceus
By john On Aug 15, 2021
We’ve got a new look at Pokémon Legends: Arceus coming soon, as confirmed by the Pokémon Company. The upcoming showcase will be centered around a few different pocket monster adventures, including Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Pokémon Shining Pearl, and the open-world Pokémon Legends: Arceus. The upcoming Pokémon Direct will be going down later this month on August 18 at 9 a.m. ET.
The Pokémon confirmed the news on Twitter, giving hopeful trainers a heads up on what they can expect. The video presentation will focus on the aforementioned three titles, which is perfect since we haven’t heard anything about what’s next from the company since last February.
Both Diamond and Pearl will be launching later this year on November 19, with Pokémon Legends Arceus releasing several months later on January 28, 2022. For longtime fans of this franchise, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl aren’t totally new experiences. Instead, they are “brilliant” remakes of the original Diamond and Pearl versions from back in 2006. While the Pokémon Company promises that the story from the original games has been faithfully reproduced, it does promise current-gen upgrades and revitalizing changes to the colors, the graphics, and other unique surprises when venturing through the Sinnoh region.
For those trainers that are just itching for a brand new adventure, Legends Arceus is where it is at. This game takes the Pokémon name even further into the realm of RPG adventures. Players will be tasked with going out into the wild and complete this region’s very first Pokedex. Legends aims to tap into the wild adventurer within trainers, giving a new way to experience a beloved franchise.

Probable pattern of button issued up to 1916
Owner Ilkeston Corporation
Opened 16th May 1903 (electric)
Operator IIkeston Corporation
Taken over (operation) 30th June 1916 (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Tramways Company, a subsidiary of Balfour Beatty & Co)
Taken over (ownership) 30th September 1916 (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Tramways Company)
Company renamed 1928 (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Traction Company)
Closed 15th January 1931
Button description (pre-1916) The municipal arms (a shield bearing a saltire) with a bear's head above, surrounded on the other three sides by the motto: 'LABOR OMNIA VINCIT’ in a ribbon, everything enclosed within a quatrefoil-shaped border
Materials known Brass
Button description (1916 onwards) Plain with scalloped rim
Materials known Brass; nickel; chrome
Comment In the absence of specific 'tramway' pattern buttons, it is possible that Ilkeston Corporation used this general untitled coat of arms pattern button for its tramway system from inception in 1903 up until the take-over by the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Tramways Company in 1916. From then on, staff wore N&DTCo uniforms which are thought to have carried plain buttons (see link).

Fake information is a giant situation right now. Art is the nice and customary refreshment. For Art is not dogmatic; holds no temporary for itself; you might take it, or chances are you’ll go away it. It would not energy itself rudely where it’s not wanted. It is reverent to all tempers, to all elements of view. Nonetheless it is wilful — the very wind within the comings and goings of its affect, an uncapturable fugitive, visiting our hearts at vagrant, sweet moments; since we steadily stand even before the best works of Art with out being able pretty to lose ourselves! That restful oblivion comes, we certainly not fairly know when — and it’s gone! But when it comes, it is a spirit hovering with cool wings, blessing us from least to greatest, in step with our powers; a spirit deathless and varied as human life itself.

During the Romantic interval of the 18th century, as a response to the Enlightenment and its emphasis on science, empirical proof, and rational thought, artwork began to be described as not simply being something achieved with skill, however something that was also created in the pursuit of magnificence and to specific the artist’s emotions.

April 2017 Retro Gaming Article
April 22, 2017 Retro Gaming Blog Post:
There will always be more Stadium Events cartridges in landfills than trophy cases
Video game preservation can be as simple as not tossing something into a dumpster, but all too often people take that easy option.
Knowledge is one of the key factors to preservation. That isn't to say you need a degree in rocket science or experience curating for the Smithsonian. The requisite knowledge can be as simple as knowing not to throw gaming items into the trash. People tend to live in the present and only show concern for things in their immediate vicinity.
Hence the "not in my backyard" mantra is a mentality that rarely seems to manifest in the truth that "it" will always be in "someone's backyard". This is easily combined with mankind's ability to be content as long as we have no direct knowledge of travesties. For example, the majority of video game's history has already been relegated to landfills by owners, businesses and manufacturers. Yes, a majority of it!
Most people argue that can't be true and cite how easy it is to find Combat or SMB/Duck Hunt carts. Sure, a few decades ago, they were everywhere. Look around now. When you find them, you may be surprised they are no longer 50¢!
Video Game Preservation Isn't Solely for Rare Items
As gamers we'd never throw an NES Stadium Events cartridge in the trash, but your father may not know it's value. Worse still, he probably won't call you when he finds your old copy in the attic... and into the trash it goes. Or maybe you are certain you randomly bought a copy back in the 80's only to discover he sold it for $3 at last Summer's yard sale. Whoops.
The truth is, Stadium Events is a terrible game and most copies were thrown away in disgust shortly after purchase.
But preservation shouldn't be relegated only to rare items. ALL gaming artifacts are valuable. Yes, ALL of them including your broken N64 and that Atari joystick that no longer "moves left."
When I was a kid there were businesses called repair shops. They fixed things. All things. You can still get your car fixed or have a leaky roof repaired, but what about your TV, sofa, or blender? When the TV stops working, into the trash it goes along with everything else. TV repair shops were easily found in my youth, but no more. In fact, most electronics are deemed unrepairable.
We live in a disposable society that doesn't value material things once they are no longer new. And when they are broken, they become an embarrassment - one worth disposing of quickly. Enter the dumpster and the ease with which deposited items disappear forever... unless you visit the local landfill.
Video Game Preservation Is Easy And Important
I'm not suggesting you park your car outside and turn your garage into a warehouse for broken gaming artifacts. All I ask is that you not throw them away. I know how easy it is to toss something into the trash, but don't. The spring on that old arcade button can be replaced. The motherboard in your Atari 7800 can be re-capped. You may not know how to do these things, but I assure you someone out there does and they'll be glad to repurpose your old stuff!
Life would be grand if everything was easy. Alas, that's not the case. That old coat that no longer fits you slides so easily into the trash, but somewhere out there is a person who'd love to have that coat. The same is true of video game items. What seems like trash to you will likely be gold to someone else. We're all different people. Some of us love shiny new things. Others like old dusty things.
Here's the real reason video game preservation is so vital. These items are finite. No longer in production. Many of the companies that made amazing games and hardware are now defunct. Their once grand creations often still function, but so many have fallen to the fate of the uninformed and been thrown away.
For every Atari 2600 you find at a yard sale, thousands have been thrown away. Even Blockbuster and Funcoland threw away most of the games they formerly rented or sold. The ugly truth is the majority of the video game industry's history was thrown away long ago! Even if it doesn't garner top-dollar, items from the 80s and 90s have tremendous historical value and should be cherished.
No one wanted the games - they seemed so common and plentiful at the time - and they wound up in landfills. Decades later we are outraged and can't believe someone would throw away a video game. Welcome to the disposable world. Nothing is sacred and everything is easily removed to a landfill. How many SMB/Duck Hunt carts have you seen lately? Remember how easy it was to find Atari's Combat cart at 80's yard sales?
Today, GameStop still fills it's dumpsters with gaming items from packaging and manuals to out-dated store displays and old product (games!). It's just trash to them and it's easier to have it carted to a landfill than to find someone to buy it. They take the easy route without regard for how it effects their own industry!
Decades from now, game collectors may have the same disdain for how our modern games are treated. It's a cycle and it will continue to be repeated until those who play games also realize the importance of them. We love playing games, but that passion goes beyond the experience itself. There's much more joy in gaming than simply having a controller in hand.
Sometimes we need to put down the controller and realize the amazing aspects of the entire gaming experience. Else we'll continue to find interest in landfill excavations as a means of exploring our vibrant history!

March 2, 2019 Retro Gaming Blog Post:
Not sure if this fits the K-Pop ethos, but now I want to see BlackPink drop an AC/DC cover at Coachella
Is Jennie from BlackPink an AC/DC fan?
Known for wearing a variety of rock band T-shirts, Jennie from BlackPink caught my attention with this AC/DC shirt. Not long ago, Kendall Jenner was called out for wearing similar shirts, when fans didn't believe she was a fan and simply using these bands as a fashion statement.
People need to mind their own business and focus on things that are important. Whether Jennie or Kendall are fans of these bands seems like minor point that SJWs use to justify their need for pseudo-outrage. All I know is I want to see BlackPink cover AC/DC's Bad Boy Boogie at Coachella!
From Rolling Stone:
BlackPink had a huge 2018! Their Top 40 EP, Square Up, broke a four-year-old record for highest-charting Korean release by a female act on the Billboard 200. A hit collaboration with Dua Lipa, Kiss and Make Up, has 125 million Spotify streams and entered the Hot 100 singles chart. They created one of the biggest 24-hour debuts on YouTube with Ddu-Du Ddu-Du earning more than 36 million views in its first day out.
BlackPink spent the year making significant mainstream inroads that led to signing with U.S. label, Interscope Records all without spending a minute promoting in America or singing in English.

The RTP-8 is a RENEWAL lease. The initial lease RS tenants sign are whatever lease the LL gives you. They are usually leases approved by the Real Estate Board (REBNY) or RSA (LL rent stab assoc). After that is when the RTP-8 is required. Of course all leases must have the DHCR informational rider attached.

The last lease the tenant had was a renewal lease, and it was not on an RTP-8 form and he never received any riders at any point in his tenancy of 5 years. I believe the tenant is scared that, in signing a renewal lease that wasn't an RTP-8, that he somehow forfeited his right to rent stabilization.
But we feel the tenant did do the right thing in opening a case with DHCR once he was told what his rights and responsibilities actually were.
It is my belief that the Rent Stabilization Laws protect this tenant despite his lack of knowledge in signing a lease that isn't stabilized, because it is the law that protects him, not the lease which is a formality that actually doesn't need to exist, except to ensure the landlord's right to his rent increases.
Do you think the fact that the tenant signed a renewal lease that wasn't proper could grant this owner his Ejectment? DHCR opening an Administrative Determination Proceeding last week.
It seems that seeing something like that should cause a Supreme Court judge to halt the
case based on that alone..

The opposing lawyer is NOW trying to say he's using an Ejectment action, because the heart patient's apt is not legal. So, now that it looks like we've proved six units, this has basically given him a license to win ejectments against any of the tenants because the certificate of occupancy says 5 units, rendering the building illegal to rent??
How is that fair? I also can't believe that the judge has put the burden on us, the Defendant, to prove the unit IS legal...!
We showed him the letter saying that DHCR has opened an Administrative Determination, and all the judge said was, "well, that could take years to decide..This man is asking me to kick you out of your home right now!"
I'm at a loss and quite despondent about this...and I can't suggest how this man with no income could find someone to represent him AND file an answet in only 2 short weeks.
by TenantNet » Mon Mar 23, 2015 12:19 pm
Nothing is ever fair.
In housing Court you have "summary proceedings" - in essence a lightweight version of full court cases.
In Supreme Court you can get "actions" which allow all sorts of things, for example, full discovery. In Housing Court any discover is not automatic, it's at the discretion of the judge and a request must be made.
I'm not following the rest of your post.
If DHCR has opened a case on the same subject matter, the courts usually defer to DHCR.
Have you looked at Legal Aid or Legal Services?
BTW, in general here I can only respond to your last post, I can't go back and refresh myself with all four pages of your case history.
by Cazmia » Mon Mar 23, 2015 1:37 pm
Thank you, I thought the same-that with an Administrative Determination open, how could this judge possibly allow this Order to Show Cause to eject him to go through?
Is there a certain sort of motion he could file in order to ask the courts to defer this to DHCR?
by TenantNet » Mon Mar 23, 2015 4:03 pm
Get this guy some legal help.
by Cazmia » Tue Mar 24, 2015 8:01 am
We went to the room the judge sent us to for legal help. They said they do not offer representation or legal advice, then gave us a pamphlet full of legal aid numbers.
We called all of those numbers and left messages which were not returned. One gentleman from the Bar said we could get a consulation for $150 a sitting, but the tenant is without income since his heart attack and open heart surgery.
The judge demanded we have representation, not a consultation and a sworn answer within 2 weeks.
by TenantNet » Tue Mar 24, 2015 9:49 am
Don't go to the Bar Association. It used to be $25 but they often do not know LL/T law or Housing Court.
Go to Legal Aid or Legal Services. Call again. Find out when they have intake hours. Don't give up after one phone call.
There are also other groups such as MFY - depends on the area of town you are in.

Hi Cazmia
Any updates on this ? - i been following this thread closely and learned from this thread. I wish the best for you and your follow neighbors. You're fighting the good fight. Hopefully you can find a lawyer with a good heart and ear.

Sorry it's been so long. I've actually ejoyed a rather long vacation from court, but I did want to post an update for those who are following this case.
What I've learned, above all, is that a tenant who wants to keep their home must be brave, stand their ground and absorb as much knowledge as possible. An agent at the DHCR sat with me and educated me so much as to what to say on court documents. Yes, some tenants crumbled to pressure and were sorry they signed away their rights and left, but I had them file rent overcharge complaints regarding the owner's failure to file with DHCR way before this ocurred, so they still have an interest in the case. Afterall, the law could require the landlord to FIND them and pay them treble damages. I am still in touch with one tenant who left and keeping him and his wife updated..
You WILL get negativity from everywhere-the court help desk, the advice attorneys, even the mediator that sits before the judge and naturally the (enemy's) attorney will make it seem as if he could have you for breakfast if he wanted..but know that the only decisions that affect you will come from a judge. The judges always urge that a trial must happen if you can't make up in the resolution part, but I have yet to go to trial after 2 years in court. Put together a good case as best you can, speak sincerely not emotionally..be about the facts and you'll get to watch the opponent twist in the wind and kill his case with his emotions when he can't get what he wants...Hold your chin up and always be ready for trial. The judge will even give you a trial date, but in the case of another agency like DHCR being involved, you will turn up ready for trial only to hear the judge tell your landlord that the case can either be taken off calendar or ended until they make a decision. A DHCR senior attorney said very few judges will take jurisdiction over an agency.
A DHCR rep also told me to make sure you state in your answer that you do NOT want to waive your right to rent stabilization.
If a judge does the almost unheard of and makes a decision and it is not in your favor, that statement about not wanting to waive your rights gives you a good reason to appeal your case to an Appellate Court. You want to also put down that the decision of the court should be without prejudice to the DHCR ruling, basically telling the judge that you are waiting on a decision from outside the case which you intend to uphold and any decision should not affect those rights. The tenant who was brought to Supreme Court who had the judge who demanded he get a lawyer enlisted the Aid of the Legal Aid Society. All the other numbers on the help sheet the court gives you (and we called them ALL) were total bull and only represent you AFTER you already get an eviction notice. We wasted so much time with them and the government should cut off funding to these cold, useless entities that waste your time when time is most precious. Legal Aid was actually NOT located in a hole in the wall or the basement of some apartment building. They actually have lawyers there, and they returned the tenant's call and took a keen interest in his case. It gave us hope should we need to appeal..However, the case has been on hold for 3 months now, so we cannot make any testimony as to their services until something is decided either way..They did say he could bring in all his paperwork and they wanted to research the case on their own online, which is so much more than any other legal aid service even touched upon. I am impressed and hope if we need them they'll be consistently as enthusiastic..
Yes, the other tenant and I are still here and still standing our ground. I used Google to teach myself to draw up an Affidavit in Opposition for the heart patient and we mentioned in it that we did not want to waive our right to stabilization. A smart move was that that I rallied all the tenants to complain about the owner's lack of maintenance of the building and public areas early on to DHCR on RA84 and RA81 forms. The most important form we filled out, however, was the Rent Overcharge Complaint, which essentially put the owner's payments on hold and gave us a strong defense in housing court. The other tenant and I had also filed for harrassment relating to the repeated nonpayment actions the owner had against us while we WERE paid up to date..The rent overcharge complaints gave the judges in housing court a reason to suspend the cases, which placed his rent in limbo, and when the landlord sued for his money after almost a year, a second judge refused to grant him a penny pending DHCR's decision on the rent regulatory status. He had turned paying tenants into nonpaying tenants.
At my harrassment conference the owner, who often sent his pricey lawyers in his place turned up by himself (probably because no lawyer wanted any part of that appointment for less than a fortune). It was an intimate meeting and I was all about the facts when I spoke. The owner did not defend himself well and resorted to name- calling. I agreed to pay my rent and in return he had to agree to cease all court actions until DHCR made a decision. Mind you, everyone was looking at me because, for the first time in this terrible situation, I was in control. If I decided I didn't want to pay the money, a judge had expressed she would probably take his case off calendar anyway..but I chose to, because the attorney told me triple damages could only be awarded to a tenant whose payments were current. It was the right thing to do anyway.
It's still all out war. I'll send a letter to DHCR and the landlord always rebuts with new evidence, like last minute affidavits from seedy witnesses he obviously paid off. He denies our tenants association exists. On every letter and evidence packet I send to DHCR, I end it to the effect of: "we the tenants having united are seeking aid from the proper agency.." I'm feeling that the DHCR is more convinced by my letters, since they have sent an inspector on more than one ocassion who looked for the sixth unit in exactly the place I described in my letters! The last inspector said, "Yeah it's six alright..We're gonna' get him.."
The owner of the building next door even signed an affidavit LYING and said he had never seen tenants residing in the sixth apartment, but now they're checking on HIS building too and, get this, he ALSO has a six unit that is down as a five. By helping our landlord, he implicated himself and may face penalties for his own residence.
I use websites like the Bronx County Clerk, HPD Online and ACRIS and I feel like a private investigator uncovering conspiracies. It is truly amazing what you can find out..like my landlord and the neighboring landlord who lied for him share a common lawyer even though they just met 2 years ago.
Meanwhile, DHCR suggested I write the TPU about my landlord. I prefer to take the defense and strike only as I need to. DHCR seems to have found the owner guilty of rent overcharge thus far, because they are trying to assess treble damages. The owner answered in writing with what he believes is evidence that this is a five unit building. Again, I defended with logic and fact as opposed to my emotions. I rebutted, arguing that trying to argue rent regulatory status on a rent overcharge complaint is not addressing the issue of willful overcharge and that the owner's evidence did not meet any of the criteria described in DHCR fact sheets that would excude him from treble damages.
I had used this method on the last nonpayment case against me. A previous judge had allowed my payments to be on hold for 8 months, the owner AND his lawyer got steaming mad and his lawyer yelled, "THIS ISN'T EVEN A SIX UNIT BUILDING!" Then he turned to the landlord and asked, "IT ISN'T ....IS IT!?!?"
LoL. I calmly stated, "I'm not going to keep having this argument because it is not the issue at hand today. The DHCR is currently determining the rent regulatory status of the premises.." Lawyers on other cases were looking at me as if I were one of them. The mediator looked at him and said, "She's absolutely right.." The landlord demanded to see the judge and said I hadn't paid in months and what of his money..The judge said, "I can't give you that now. She's filed a rent overcharge and there is a question of possession.." Only weeks before the same judge had said she didn't know how much of a case I had and she'd sheduled us for trial. I was respectful, asked my judge if they needed copies of anything and thanked the judge for hearing our case. I decided I'd let the chips fall where they may and continue to answer DHCR and make my appearances..but that was months ago..
Now, it's a waiting game. I've heard DHCR can take a long time to decide, but the judge asked them to expedite the case hence the inspector and my overcharge complaint being processed before any of the other tenants. I thank TenantNet Forum for giving me direction when I had nothing but a blank piece of paper, little knowledge and lots of fear. I thank DHCR and one man in particular who has been our ANGEL. I thank everyone who stood with us and supported us like my loved ones and fellow tenants. Google and Bing are incredible too. I thank God, especially, for making me the hardass I didn't know I could be. This continues to be an incredible, "growing experience".
We've gone from victimized tenants who were holding onto our homes by a thread to an association of tenants who may obtain treble damages for the violation of their rights as rent stabilized tenants. If you asked me 2 years ago if I were capable of formulating an 89 page letter and evidence packet or creating an affidavit in opposition, I'd have looked at you like you were crazy..but when you learn what your rights are, it's just about finding the right way to say what you need to say...Keep wishing us luck and I will keep you updated!

After almost a year the Supreme Court judge has set a hearing for 2 weeks from now. His letter states the matter will be put down soley to determine whether or not the building is 6 units and subject to stabilization, because that is the "heart of the matter".
The comments in his letter said that both parties provided information from DHCR whichwas conflicting. He also said both parties should present their evidence, and any DHCR updates in "admissible form" as it was not presented that way the first time...
We are again attempting to get the Legal Aid Society behind us, who was beginning to work with us a year ago when the case was put on hold. They initially said they wanted to follow the case, and to come back when it resumed. However, it is now 10 months later, and they are acting as if they do not remember us or the lawyer we were working with. We went in person gave them some paperwork, but they have not called us back and we were hoping they would be there on our trial date..
We gave the judge a thick, bound booklet 10 months ago, with the Affidavit in Opposition and about 12 detailed, indexed exhibits, so we are not sure what he needs to be in admissible form. Any advice on that and whether or not we should bring witnesses? Not sure if a hearing is less formal than a trial and if that will be necessary..
As for DHCR updates, we have a printout that says the determination is under "final review". If Legal Aid doesn't come through, we might find ourselves pro se as usual. Is it as simple as bringing the printout to court in a little manilla folder or does a Supreme Court judge expect us to restate the whole case we presented to him again in another form? We put so much work into that indexed booklet, and it was signed and served the last time. Not sure what he is looking for..

I'm not going to re-read four pages here. And I can't remember posts from 2 weeks ago.
Can you give up a 1-2 paragraph synopsis of all that has happend until now?
For a SC hearing, is this an Article 78 - who brought it? If it is an A78, is DHCR a party here (they should be) and which side are they defending?
For Legal Aid, sometime you need to make a stink. Keep calling or sit in their office until someone pays attention.
I can't say for certain what admissable means, but some government documents may need to be "certified." You can ask DHCR FOIL office for certified copies of documents. Let them know you have a court date and they are supposed to expedite this. (you might have to pay them for copies).
Judges have wide latitude. Some judges can be very helpful and understand your situation, but others are nightmares. I would bring witnesses, but don't be surprised if the judge won't listen. You really need a lawyer if you don't know how this stuff works.
On your last paragraph, I'm confused. Is this issue under active processing with DHCR and also, at the same time before a judge? (or is the judge reviewing a prior order?) If you feel good about a DHCR order, then you can ask DHCR for an expedited decision due to the ongoing case.
Again, if this is an A78, why isn't DHCR a party?
Or did the LL bring the case which is not an appeal to a lower DHCR decision. Which is it?
by Cazmia » Wed Nov 04, 2015 11:42 am
No, not an Article 78 case. An eviction proceeding that LL brought against this tenant in Supreme Court because he could not get anywhere in Housing Court. You see, 2 prior eviction cases were taken off calendar by the Housing Court since 2013, so this case is the LL's ongoing attempt to evict. It is an Ejectment Action.
The reason prior cases were taken off calendar for this tenant (and others) is because he is operating a six unit building which is down on public record as a 5 unit. It says 5 units at HPD, his deed says 5 units and his Cert of Occupancy (from 1926) says 5 units. The tenants know this to be a six unit and the issue has been presented to DHCR, who is in the process of an Administrative Determination (AD Proceeding). The AD is under "final review" status.
LL then filed RJI to speed up the case and assign it to a judge. The Supreme Court judge let the case lie for about 10 months after the RJI and has now called it forth again for a hearing, but the DHCR has not completed the final review as of yet.
I'm not sure how the judge wants to proceed, because this case is for a single tenant and any decisions affect the rent regulatory status of the ENTIRE building..
This tenant, as well as myself (I am another tenant and I head the tenant's association), have been fighting eviction by this landlord for 2 1/2 years in court. Owner thinks he can get us out before a determination is made and has been trying relentlessly (8 cases in total). We have brought harassment cases against him as well as rent overcharge complaints and building maintenance complaints, but none can be processed until the final determination.
We have a letter from the DHCR attorney which advised the landlord that further legal action would be fruitless until a determination is made. He is not to "commence" any further actions. However, this case was already commenced when that letter was written.
We will bring this documentation to court, but were just wondering if it needs to be presented in certain way and, if the judge wants updates, do we have to serve the attorneys for the LL before the court date since it is "new evidence"?
Thanks for the advise about Legal Aid. We will be persistent with them. We really need their help. The tenant's rent has been on hold for 18 months and Housing Court judge have not pressed him to present any money due to the overcharge complaint and the complexity of the whole situation...
by TenantNet » Wed Nov 04, 2015 1:02 pm
You say "LL then filed RJI to speed up the case" -- so does this mean the LL's case is one of Mandamus seeking to enforce DHCR to make a quick decision, or is it - as you say an eject ment case (which would not be an A78).
Have you made a motion to wait for the DHCR determination? That seems to be the logical thing to do.
Can you send us a scan of the DHCR letter by attaching it to a private mail on this forum? Do not attach it to a public post on the forum.
We can't say how a judge will conduct a matter in the courtroom as it varies from judge to judge. It might be informal, and it might not be.
by Cazmia » Mon Nov 09, 2015 1:38 pm
Precisely. The owner is attempting to speed up an Ejectment proceeding.
No motion has been filed. However, the tenant answered and then filed an Affidavit in Opposition. In the affidavit, he expressed that an administrative determination was being processed and asked that the case be deferred to the agency handling the matter.
It seems if there is going to be a hearing, this might mean the judge has chosen not to defer the matter...? Unless, the judge's order for a hearing on the issue is his way of getting it out of his hands after a year...
I don't see a lot of sense in a hearing to determine what another agency is also trying to determine. Also, this is one tenant's case the judge is presiding over. The determination that we are stabilized, however, would affect all the tenants.
Would a judge ask us to bring in the latest updates from DHCR, which he could access himself online, just to tell both parties in person that he is deferring the case? Couldn't he have just said that via written court order?
I realize we're worredly trying to read a judge's mind, which in itself is pointless...Still no active participation from Legal Aid or MFY Legal.. (sigh)

Posted on July 23, 2015 October 30, 2015 by Chris
Eight Hours in Cork
Once it was settled that we would spend a few days in Ireland prior to heading over to Germany, my task was to map out our brewery visits. With no plans to rent a car, our options were limited to the Dublin area or places we could reach via train or bus network. After a bit of research, spending a day in Cork seemed like the best option to add a few breweries.
Despite the first day over-indulgence in Dublin, Merideth and I managed to make our morning train to Cork. We welcomed the two-and-a-half hour journey for a bit more sleep. Arriving at Kent Station in Cork, the fresh air of the almost one mile walk to our first stop, Rising Sons, also helped in clearing the cobwebs from our heads.
A nice walk along the River Lee
Rising Sons was unlike any other brewpub we have been to in Ireland. For lack of a better word, it was very American. The large brick exterior was reminiscent of a warehouse but the building had, in fact, housed a printer who at one time printed all the check books in the country. The high ceiling, exposed beamed open interior was dominated on one side by the copper clad brewery behind a large window that backed the bar.
Starting light
Waiting for us at the bar was our friend and guide for the day, Dave O’Leary. Owner of Bierhaus Cork, we first met Dave back in 2008 during our Year in Beer visit to Ireland. One of the pioneers of the Cork beer scene, who better to hang out with in Ireland’s second city?
Still feeling the effects of the previous night, I ordered, somewhat out of character for me, a half of Sunbeam. The half being the out of character part, I caught Merideth giving me a ‘I’m married to this guy’ look when I said half. The 4.3% ABV Bavarian-style lager was a perfect hair of the dog beer. Merideth started with Grainú Ale, Rising Sons’ 4.6% ABV Belgian-style Summer Ale. She was a trooper though and ordered a whole pint.
Six years since we last visited Cork, five years since seeing Dave last, we caught up with him and the Cork beer scene as we nursed our beers. Starting to feel alive again, I followed up Sunbeam with Handsum, Rising Sons’ American hopped IPA. However, I still stuck with a half pint.
Already back in our minds that we had an evening train to catch back to Dublin, we finished our beers and decided it was best to move on.
If there is a commonality in the people we meet on our travels, it’s that many end up helping us with our quest. Whether it is research, transportation or guide, people are eager to participate in our beer adventures. Dave was no different.
He mentioned there was a newish brewery in Mayfield, an outlying area of Cork, that had an American connection. Too far to walk and too long a journey on public transportation given our short window, Dave volunteered to drive us to the amusingly named Cotton Ball. And we can’t thank Dave enough for this. Not only did we add a brewery that we might not have, Cotton Ball ended up being one of those very special brewery visits — it joined my love of beer and interest in Civil War history.
First pint of the day, Indian Summer Pale Ale
Up past Heineken Ireland we drove into a working class part of Cork. The sign advertising Stouts and Ales gave the Cotton Ball a look of your typical Irish pub from the outside. Entering the small front bar, I was somewhat surprised to be the only customers. Our trio settled up to the bar.
Both Merideth and I started with the 4.7% ABV Indian Summer Pale Ale. A wonderful citrus hop aroma greeted me as I took a big gulp of my first pint of the day. After a few more gulps, it was time to go check out the brewery. Pints in hand, we passed through the large dining room (that’s where all the people were!), down some stairs and into the large space located below. Here we were greeted by Eoin Lynch. Brewing started in late 2013, Eoin Lynch explained as we toured the five barrel brewhouse.
While touring the brewery, Dave brought up the American connection. Eoin suggested we go back upstairs and talk to his father, he would be able to fill us in. Eoin introduced us to his father, Jack Lynch. And the Cotton Ball story unfolded.
Jack’s grandfather, Eoin’s great-grandfather, Humphrey Lynch emigrated to America at age 15, settling north of Boston. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Humphrey enlisted, joining the 4th U.S. Light Artillery. Fighting mainly in the western theater including battles such as Chickamauga, Humphrey was discharged from the Union Army in 1865 at the rank of sergeant.
With Jack Lynch and a rare 39 star American flag
Returning to Ireland in the 1870s, Humphrey bought a public house in what was then called Baile na Mbocht. He named his pub the Cotton Ball, harkening back to his years following the Civil War working as a foreman in a cotton mill. Almost 140 years later, still owned by the same family, the Cotton Ball added the brewery.
Back at the bar after the history lesson, we all grabbed a bite to eat while enjoying the Cotton Ball’s wonderful Lynch’s Handcrafted Stout, both on nitro and off the shelf.
Returning to the city center, we had time for a quick pint at the Bierhaus (Dave’s beer bar) before heading to our last stop of the day. And Merideth bought her new favorite zippie.
Space was a premium at the tiny Elbow Lane Brew and Smoke House. Entering the tiny 25 seat restaurant, I wondered if we had ever been in a smaller brewpub. I think not. Greeted by the manager, Jerry O’Sullivan, he immediately started us on a tour of Elbow Lane.
Pushing some tables and chairs away to access a door at the back of the restaurant, we entered the tiny brewhouse. I immediately recognized how the place could be so small, a Braumeister system. An all-in-one brewery, all grain brewing system, we had seen one of these before on our last trip to London, but on a much smaller scale. While in that system, the basket could be lifted out by hand, Elbow Lane utilized the biggest kit available, 250 liters. Lifting the basket required a winch. With this Braumeister kit, Elbow Lane produces five house beers.
Touring the conditioning tanks upstairs, Jerry explained that the goal was to achieve just-in-time brewing as much as possible. One of the benefits of such a small brewery to tour, Merideth, Dave and I were quickly seated at the bar ready to try their brews.
Sample flight at Elbow Lane
Beers ranged from Elbow Lager to Angel Stout. All the beers were solid, especially the 4.4% ABV Stout whose strong roast character I imagined pairing well with some of the bigger meat dishes. The star was Arrow Weiss, a 5% ABV Bavarian-style Wheat that recently won Best in Category for Wheat Beers at the Killarney Beerfest. The prominent banana/clove character reminded me that in a few days we would be in Germany.
The food menu looked pretty amazing but our appetites failed us at this crucial moment. We stuck with a couple of small bites, Olives & Spiced Fried Chickpeas and Pigs in Blankets, as we moved through the sample flight.
It was now early evening and our train’s departure back to Dublin was looming. We thanked Jerry for his hospitality, and after thanking Dave profusely for being our tour guide for the day, we parted ways.
With three breweries added to the List, we walked back to the train station with a bit more bounce in our step then we made the opposite journey from earlier in the day. We can’t thank Dave enough for taking the time to chaperone us around his city.
Heading back to the train station after a great day in Cork.

GRAPHIC BY LEANE CHE After months of attending online classes, students deliberate over returning to school.
District to reopen in spring 2021
By Leane Che 10 months ago
With Los Angeles County nearing the substantial tier, where middle and high schools may reopen, the district is devising reopening plans for this spring. To ensure a safe return, the district implemented new protocols and is seeking community input as it considers its next steps.
Because the threshold for elementary schools to open has been met, a parent survey was issued to gather information about reopening concerns, collecting over 12,000 responses. While the preliminary data depicts a preference for online instruction, 31% of the respondents favored in-person instruction.
“As we move closer to our schools reopening, one of our priorities is maintaining instructional stability for students,” Superintendent Denise Jaramillo said. “We know there may be some questions that cannot be answered through a simple survey or email inquiry. We encourage you to join us at one of our Community Conversation sessions, where we can have a two-way dialogue in a small group setting.”
Following the lifting of the Stay Home Orders, the district resumed in-person special education assessments and non-instructional drive-through activities. Some high needs students are allowed on school campuses for specialized in-person services, including occupational therapy and academic instruction. Beginning last Monday, staff members were also eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
“[When] we reopen, I am most looking forward to connecting with my students and colleagues,” Career Technical Education teacher Jose Zaragoza said. “Specific things like feeling the energy of the classroom and even long-distance fist bumps with whomever is walking down the hallways.”
Throughout the school year, the district installed preventative measures such as signage, plexiglass partitions, air filters, and improved ventilation systems. Rooms were reconfigured, and sanitizing supplies have been distributed. New cleaning procedures were adopted as log sheets are being posted in rooms that will be initialled upon completion of sanitizing.
“Although there are systems in place designed to keep students and staff as safe as possible, I am still concerned as other schools across the country have reopened only to close again,” junior Lina Tieu said. “Everyone needs to help continue slowing down the infection rate of COVID-19 by diligently following all social distancing guidelines.”
While distance learning will remain as the core instructional program until spring break, the district will continue physical preparations to schools and maintain communication with the community. Once the reopening plan is officialized, it will be submitted to the California Department of Education and county for evaluation.

Evolution of Protein Structure
The complex constraints imposed by protein structure and function result in varied rates of sequence and structural divergence in proteins. Analysis of sequence differences between homologous proteins can advance our understanding of structural divergence and some of the constraints that govern the evolution of these molecules. It is likely that with further understanding of evolutionary constraints, accurate predictions of both past and future protein evolution may be possible.
Molecular Evolution of HIV-1
Using models of evolution based on the physical and physicochemical constraints imposed by the protein structure it may be possible to predict the likely amino acid substitutions that may occur in viable HIV-1 molecules. Incorporation of functional and immunological constraints would permit prediction of viral evolution that is both significant to the immune response and increasingly accurate and may be useful in vaccine development.
Identifying determinants of specificity in yeast protein complexes
The evolution and specificity of interaction interfaces is of great importance in understanding individual complexes as well as the interaction network as a whole. Homologous proteins sharing ~25-30% sequence identity are likely to have similar binding interfaces and modes of interaction but the exact determinants of specificity are poorly understood. Binding specificity correlates poorly with overall sequence diversity and divergence at the interface is likely to be more important in mediating specificity. I am interested in characterising the determinants of specificity in protein-protein interactions using Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces bayanus.

Clean Energy Fuels Opens Newest Public CNG Station at JFK International Airport
Clean Energy Fuels Corp., today announced fueling has begun at its newest public access CNG station in New York, which is located at JFK International Airport within the newly-opened JFK multi-fuel travel plaza, the only travel plaza in New York City available to motorists. Clean Energy will be fueling many types of fleets including refuse trucks, heavy and medium duty trucks, ready-mix concrete trucks, as well as shuttles and taxis that directly serve JFK travelers.
“CNG is an important fueling option for New York businesses and has proven to be a reliable fuel for the people of New York during times of natural disaster,” said Peter Grace, senior vice president of sales and finance at Clean Energy. “We congratulate Airport Plaza for today’s grand opening and are proud to be the CNG provider at this innovative alternative fueling station.”
The new public CNG station is open 24/7 and accepts credit cards and fleet fuel cards. In addition to CNG, the JFK travel plaza also features other alternative fuels, such as E-85, electric vehicle charging stations, as well as conventional gasoline and diesel. However, CNG is the only alternative fuel which can meet the fueling needs of vehicles ranging from taxis to heavy-duty trucks which will be fueling at this station.
“As one of the first ready-mix companies in the United States to utilize natural gas in our ready-mix concrete mixers, we’re excited about fueling with Clean Energy,” said Bob Gartman, vice president of operations, Ferrara Brothers Building Materials Corp. “As a local Queens company based in Flushing, our CNG fueling will not only positively impact the surrounding community and environment, limiting the need for foreign oil, but will also positively impact our bottom line.”
Clean Energy is now successfully operating at every international airport in the Northeast and currently operates over thirty public stations in the Tri-State area.
“The New York Department of Sanitation’s municipal refuse fleet is the largest in the nation and requires a fueling partner who can meet the demands of our fleet,” said Rocco DiRico, deputy commissioner, New York City Department of Sanitation. “The new JFK CNG station makes fueling even easier for our department.”
Natural gas fuel costs up to $1.50 less per gallon than gasoline or diesel, depending on local market conditions. The use of natural gas fuel not only reduces operating costs for vehicles, but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions up to 30% in light-duty vehicles and 23% in medium to heavy-duty vehicles. In addition, nearly all natural gas consumed in North America is produced domestically.

National Herald case: Delhi court postpones recording of pre-charge evidence to Nov 20
by ANI
New Delhi [India], September 26 (ANI): A special court in Delhi has adjourned the hearing on the National Herald case after a joint request for the same by both the parties in the matter. The case was on Friday scheduled for cross-examination of complainant BJP MP Subramanian Swamy at the stage of pre-charge evidence.
A joint application stated that due to the pandemic, prevailing parties are not in a position to appear before the court physically, and therefore sought an adjournment.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Vishal Pahuja asked both the parties to explore the solution for proceeding with the matter further as the coronavirus is going to stay longer and this court being the fast track court has to expedite the trial/proceedings.
Either the parties can appear before the physical court and to avoid any crowding, only this matter will be listed for the entire day or the evidence can be recorded through video conference.
Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi's lawyer RS Cheema had earlier partly cross-examined Swamy.
The National Herald case, which was filed by Swamy, is being heard by a special court in Delhi's Rouse Avenue against Sonia, Rahul and other associated persons.
According to Swamy's complaint, Associated Journals Limited (AJL) had taken an interest-free loan of Rs 90.25 crores from the Indian National Congress. It is alleged that the loan was not repaid. Swamy had filed the case in 2012 accusing the two Gandhis and others of conspiring to cheat and misappropriate funds.
He had stated that the Congress party granted an interest-free loan of Rs 90.25 crores to Associated Journals Limited (AJL), owner of the National Herald newspaper. (ANI)
