TEAMS: Kansas State Wildcats, Notre Dame Fighting Irish
FORT WORTH, Texas Texas A&M paid anywhere from 9.31 million to 12.41 million, depending on your media source of choice, to secede from the Big 12 in February. Aggies felt this to be too much, Big 12 types too little. Now, though, A&M has delivered what all parties have to agree was a fair parting gift, beating No. 1 Alabama, 29-24, behind a Heisman-worthy performance by Johnny Manziel. Because what A&M really gave their frenemies in the Big 12 on Saturday was a chance. With Texas A&M's upset of Alabama, little and unlikely Kansas State, the team almost assuredly to be screwed by the BCS if three or more teams finish undefeated, has a real good chance to play for a national championship. And it deserves to be in that game. Even if Notre Dame and Oregon are both undefeated, too. This is the tendency, I guess. Journalists tend to fall in love with the team that is right in front of their eyes on that Saturday. They write how great and wonderful and perfect e...

And then that was it, the 18th stage got official under way. The next day there was a time trial and then on Sunday the peloton hit the Champs-Elysées and that was it.
The winner of the "best flow of the peloton".
At least that helmet with Norwegian colours is easy to spot!
In the end, the peloton is like one big family. Everyone knows each other and most have been on the same team at one point or another.
This is what the chaos at the end of the sign-in looks like. People everywhere and riders trying to make their way through.

Ceres 'Stormy Future for U.S. Property/Casualty Insurers' Report Released
By: Tim Hill
Last week, Ceres – a Boston-based nonprofit advocating for mobilizing business leadership for a sustainable world – released the report, "Stormy Future for U.S. Property/Casualty Insurers: The Growing Costs and Risks Of Extreme Weather Events."
According to the report, U.S. insurances companies have a bumpy road ahead because of the frequency and severity of natural disasters. In the year 2011, extreme disasters cost U.S. insurers $32 billion USD in losses. It is estimated that globally around $380 billion USD in economic losses stemmed from catastrophes in 2011. These amounts were nearly two-thirds higher than in 2005 – the previous record year.
Whether flood, drought or hurricane, building resilience is urgent. Natural disasters are unavoidable; to create an environment that protects lives and livelihoods, insurers, private sectors companies and others need to invest in adaptation to help the world's most vulnerable prepare. Insurance companies are already stretched after the natural disasters of recent years and it may be difficult to alter the industry's ability to make necessary future operational and strategic investments, according to the report.
Adaptation to a changing world is more important than ever. Cities, communities, towns and villages will require investment in the future to help to build resilience and adapt to a changing world.

An elderly couple from Austin, Ind. has been identified as the two people killed after an accident on Interstate 65 Sunday.
Police said the pickup truck the couple was traveling in was rear-ended by another vehicle in the northbound lanes of I-65 near Scottsburg, Ind.
85-year-old James Jewel and his 75-year-old wife, Thelma, were both killed after being rear-ended, causing their pickup to cross the median and crashing head-on into a tractor-trailer. The couple's vehicle was eventually pinned underneath the tractor-trailer.
Police said the accident is a tragic reminder of basic rules on the roadway.
"We always encourage people to be aware of their surroundings. If a car is getting too close to you try to maneuver somewhere on the road and keep that following distance between you and the vehicle in front of you and if somebody is following you too close let them pass by, move over into the next lane," Sgt. Don Gregory, Indiana State Police, said.
The crash shut down the northbound lanes of I-65 for hours Sunday and police are still looking into what caused the initial accident. No other injuries were reported.

A North Pole couple has been charged with taking tips from Fairbanks drive-up espresso stands.
21-year-old Cayla Thorp and 25-year-old Christopher John are charged with grabbing tip jars and driving off.
Police say the couple would place an order, wait for a barista to leave the window and then grab the tip jar and drive off.
They are charged with misdemeanor theft at two stands and police say they acknowledged hitting other drive-up coffee huts.
They also told police they collected less than $10 and debated whether they were spending more on gas than they were taking in.
Police say a surveillance video identified Thorp's car and a barista remembered her from high school.
John told police they wanted to buy synthetic marijuana.

A look at the odds
This is just a preliminary workthrough of the odds of the Cubs winning the series with the Dodgers. Just as Kurt's doing with the scouting reports, I hope to do team-by-team breakdowns using the latest and greatest in mad science. But while Igor's out fetching the cadavers I need, here's a quick look at things using the log5 method. Team win percentages are figured from the BP PECOTA playoff odds report. Odds do not change game to game, except for home field advantage. This is not the ideal way to do it, but until I can update depth charts and projections it will do.
Odds that Cubs win series in three games: 18%
Odds that Cubs win series in four games: 22.5%
Odds that Cubs win series in five games: 21.1%
Total: 61.6%
Subject to change based upon improvements to the model, or as more information comes out about roster decisions.
not good enough
i'd be much more comfortable at 63.2 percent.

The major problem would be loot. As @3 pointed out, you can't trade non-created items across realms. I.e, a mage can trade mage water, but you can't trade heal pots.
This seems to be to probably relate to how certain objects are instantiated on the character. Health Stones, Mage Water, etc are created on the char and expire, whereas healing pots and other 'permenant' items exist on a database server somewhere. I would guess that cross realm itemization would be a programmtic nightmare.
Couple that with the summoning stone, LFG chat, and coordination problems in general, I don't think this is feasible.

All of our shoes are in US sizes. In general, the US size is one up from the UK size (ie UK 5 = US 6) but please measure your child's foot and use our sizing chart to ensure a correct fit.
Early childhood sizes: US 4 to US 9 (inside shoe length 11.5 cm to 16.3 cm). Approx age 0 to 3 years
Pre-school/ early primary: US 8 to 13 (inside shoe length 15.5 to 19.5 cm). Approx 2.5 to 6 years
Pre-school/ early primary: 1 youth/ adult to 3 youth/ adult (inside shoe length 20.3 to 21.9 cm). Approx 5-8 years.
IMPORTANT: When reading the sizing charts below please remember that the 'length' refers to the inside length of the shoe, NOT the foot.
For example, the length of of US 5 shoe is 13.1 cm. Therefore, if your child's foot is 13 cm you will need to order a size US 6 to allow for growing room.
Always measure your child's foot before ordering. Remember, sizing varies between brands so a size US 5 in our shoe may not be the same as a US 5 in another brand.
Select the correct range for your child. If your child is not yet walking the Smaller range (0-6 months ot 18-24 months) is primarily an indoor shoe.
If you need a shoe for outside crawling/ daycare we recommend the See Kai Run range (leather shoes and sneakers, sizes US 4 to 9) as shoes in the See Kai Run range are suitable both as a pre-walker and a first walker.
If your child is around two years old and is a size US 8 or more then the Kai range (US 8 to US 13 in child sizes and adult/youth 1 to 3) is often a better fit. The Kai range is a slimmer fit than the See Kai Run range.
If you are unsure about sizing please call us on 1300 249 849.
|Age (months):
|0-6 months
|4.2 in/10.7 cm
|6-9 months
|4.5 in/11.5 cm
|9-12 months
|4.8 in/12.3 cm
|12-18 months
5.2 in/13.1 cm
|18-24 months
|5.5 in/13.9 cm
Click here to print the sizing chart for Smaller, See Kai Run and Kai.
Make sure you print the chart out at 100% for accurate sizing.
'Inside length' on the sizing chart refers to the inside length of the shoe, not your child's foot.
Please allow 0.5 to 1 cm growing room when using this chart. For example, if your child's foot sits on or just under the US 4 size line, you will need a size US 5 to allow for growing room.
If your child is about to transition from the Smaller range to the See Kai Range the following guide will help you choose the right size in the See Kai Run range:

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - An eighth-grader at Beechwood Superintendent Academy in Baton Rouge has been arrested after an unloaded gun was found in his back pack.
The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office says a 15-year-old boy was booked Thursday with illegal carrying of a weapon on school property. He was transported to the parish's juvenile detention.
The sheriff's office, in a statement, said an on-campus sheriff's deputy who is part of the School Drug Task Force was contacted at 11 a.m. by a school administrator who received a tip about a weapon at the school.
The deputy then found the unloaded, .38-caliber handgun in the student's back pack.
Authorities say the student gave no reason for having the weapon.

When it comes to traveling with kids, the preparation can be the most taxing part. Packing for myself is difficult enough, but when I try to anticipate the needs and wants and needed distractions for two other highly unpredictable little people, I tend to get panicky. That usually means I pack more and more and more until our suitcases and car are stuffed with so much stuff, they're bulging at the seams. It's crazy, and every time I vow I won't do it again. Then I do.
So in a quest to pack smarter for an upcoming trip with my children, I turned to an expert to help me. Tara Donohue Rudo, a Certified Professional Organizer, runs No More Piles and works to help busy families streamline their lives by saving time and reclaiming space. Exactly what I need -- to reclaim more space in my suitcase! Here are her three best tips to keep in mind when packing for your next trip.
1. Don't pack the play room.
2. Lay out the clothes you want to pack, then put back half.
3. Make your electronics work for you.
What tips would you add to this list?
Image via johntrainor/Flickr
Make a list of what you are going to need and use.
Great tips!!!! I don't agree with the socks one though. My 5 year old is always getting his socks wet (don't ask me how). I make a list, so I don't forget things and don't feel like I'm forgetting something (then overpack).
Good list!
I would beg to differ with the Crayon/Marker idea if you are doing a car trip....crayons melt and I hate marker on my seats-I always opt for colored pencils.
Love tip #2!

Pirates of Nassau
Don't even try to ignore the pirate pacing outside the museum. Like any seafaring ruffian worth his parrot and peg leg, he had you in his sights the moment you turned the corner.
Don't even try to ignore the pirate pacing outside the museum. Like any seafaring ruffian worth his parrot and peg leg, he had you in his sights the moment you turned the corner.
Wandering into the back room of the Humidor Churrascaria steak house, on the grounds of the Graycliff Hotel , is like falling from 2010s Bahamas into 1920s Cuba. In a narrow, smoke-yellowed room with old-fashioned mosaic floors, a dozen torcedores (cigar rollers) are busy at work, their fingers a blur as they roll hand-dried tobacco leaves into premium stogies.
Inside the stately 1860s-era Villa Doyle, this grand art museum is one of the gems in the Bahamas' crown. The permanent collection focuses on modern and contemporary Bahamian artists, from renowned sculptor Antonius Roberts to folk painter Wellington Bridgewater. Temporary exhibits cover hot topics like global warming and the Haitian earthquake.
This sunny mini-zoo is home to nearly 300 species of animals. Crowd-pleasers include the Madagascan lemurs, a pair of jaguar siblings, and a small herd of African pygmy goats. The undisputed highlight, however, is the small regiment of marching West Indian flamingos, who strut their stuff at 10:30am, 2:10pm and 4:10pm daily.
No trip would be complete for families, or even big kids, without a visit to Atlantis' huge Waterscape. Claiming to be the world's largest open-air aquarium, it has a whole host of lagoons and is home to 200 species of marine life.
This hushed, intimate garden is the last thing you expect to find on bling-lovin' Paradise Island, but here it is. The formal, multi-tiered landscape is lined with classical statues depicting great men throughout the ages: Hercules, Napoleon and Roosevelt, to name a few.
The liveliest market in town sits beneath the Paradise Island Exit Bridge, where fishing boats from the Family Islands arrive daily, carrying the sea's harvest, as well as fruit, herbs, biting pepper sauces and vegetables.
Built between 1787 and 1790 to guard the west entrance to Nassau Harbour, this massive fort was the pet project of Lord Dunmore, who named it after King George III's wife. Ill-designed (the troop's barracks were built directly in the line of fire!) and overbudget, it quickly took on the name 'Dunmore's Folly'. What's more, it was never used.
Shaped like a paddle-wheel steamer, this hilltop fort was built by Lord Dunmore in 1793 to guard the harbor against invaders. Never used, it was eventually converted into a lighthouse. The fort itself is not particularly fascinating, but it's worth the trip for the sweeping panoramic views from the top.
Sitting atop the ridge south of Fort Montagu is Blackbeard's Tower, a semiderelict cut-stone tower that, according to local lore, was built by Edward Teach - 'Blackbeard' - as a lookout tower. Historians point out that it was actually built in the late 18th century, long after the infamous pirate had been killed.
This splendid Georgian mansion, residence of the Bahamas' governor-general, sits atop Hill St like a pink candied topping. Below, the statue of Christopher Columbus has maintained a jaunty pose on the steps overlooking Duke St since 1830. The original home was built in 1737 by Governor Fitzwilliam but was destroyed by a hurricane in 1929.
The heart of town for tourists is Rawson Sq, on the south side of Bay St. It's a natural place to begin a tour of downtown Nassau. Guided walking tours also begin here. Nearby is a life-sized bronze Bahamian Woman statue , which honors the role of women during 'years of adversity.' She holds a small child.

The Gunpowder Plot was one of the most famous attempts to kill a king in British history. A group of men, including one named Guy Fawkes, planned to blow up the Houses of Parliament. They were caught before they could carry out the plot, however. Every year on the anniversary of the plot, people in the United Kingdom celebrate the fact that the plot failed. The celebrations include bonfires and fireworks.
- Gunpowder Plot - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
In 1605, a group of English Roman Catholics conspired to blow up Parliament and King James I, his queen, and his oldest son in what is now known as the Gunpowder Plot. The leader of the plot was Robert Catesby, and his four co-conspirators were Thomas Winter, Thomas Percy, John Wright, and Guy Fawkes. All these men were zealous Roman Catholics angered by the refusal of James-who was a Protestant-to grant more religious toleration to Catholics. The men apparently hoped that the confusion that would follow the murder of the king, his ministers, and the members of Parliament would provide an opportunity for the English Catholics to take over the country.

text:
The news that former Google executive Marissa Mayer had been appointed President and CEO of Yahoo – just a few days before announcing her pregnancy – was met with feminist glee back in July. But the honeymoon between Mayer and feminists is long over, following revelations that Mayer doesn't particularly care for feminism, nor does she fully understand how her actions could have wide ramifications for working moms or promote the kinds of policies that have long been considered the most family-friendly and, by extension, feminist.
Frankly, I'm as turned off by all of these disclosures as the next feminist blogger. As Chloe put it when the video of Mayer's rejection of the feminist label surfaced, Mayer's rise in a male-dominated field would have been virtually impossible without the gains made in large part as a direct result of the very feminism she decries. "In a world where a hiring decision like this one is momentous, groundbreaking, trailblazing news, being a feminist is not having a chip on your shoulder. It is simply an awareness of reality," she wrote. "It is too bad that [for Mayer] feminism has become a negative word. You know what's also too bad? Your failure to acknowledge that without feminism, you could never have become the CEO of Yahoo."
Even before Mayer's controversial decision to end the practice of remote work at Yahoo, Katie Baker at Jezebel described her own process of disillusionment with the CEO, asking "Is Marissa Mayer…a feminist trailblazer if she doesn't want to be one?" and pointing out that while it may be merely "frustrating that Mayer doesn't want to proudly proclaim herself a feminist" it's downright "irresponsible" for her to completely distance herself from the movement and pretend that equality for women in tech isn't still a huge issue.
I don't support Mayer's anti-feminist policies or rejection of the very movement that got her where she is today. I'll say it again: I think Mayer's rejection of feminism is whack and her remote work policy is harmful. BUT, and there is a big one here, I still think it's important to call out sexism against her. And believe me, there's plenty of it. Here's a representative piece reducing criticism of Mayer's policies as "mommy bloggers tearing her apart". Here's a piece echoing many, many others criticizing Mayer for simultaneously "building a nursery by her office" while "dissing working moms", which strikes me as an incredibly below-the-belt and wholly gendered dig. (It makes sense to point out hypocrisy as it relates to anti-feminist policies, but shouldn't we also acknowledge the hypocrisy inherent in attacking a working mom for her child care choices to make our own political points?) Even BusinessWeek is acknowledging the sexism inherent to some of the "excessive" reactions to Mayer's policies.
This is not to say that anyone who disagrees with Mayer is a sexist – far from it – just that it's important to call out the sexist aspects of some of the criticism aimed against her. (Here's a good example of a piece that does a good job of focusing on what's wrong with Mayer's remote work policy and less on her own child-rearing choices.) In this imperfect, wholly sexist world, so many of us are socialized to react negatively to female authority, and, in many cases, to undermine and belittle it. If feminism is to avoid hypocrisy, we need to understand and even embrace the fact that our movement can't be selectively applied, for better or worse. Everyone benefits when we call out sexism — even people who have publicly distanced themselves from the movement or espoused anti-feminist views. And that's a good thing, whether they know it or not.

SHEBOYGAN FALLS, WI (WHBL) - City of Sheboygan Falls residents will pay more towards city services next year. The city's common council approved the 2014 budget Tuesday evening following no comments from the public.
The $5.45 million budget is up 2.23-percent from this year, which includes a 4.1-percent increase in the tax levy to over $3.03 million. Mayor Randy Meyer said this was due to factors such as cuts in shared revenues and making sure their self funded health insurance had adequate funding. Meyer added the budget does include funding for the city's Main Street program and the Sheboygan County Economic Development Corporation.
The tax rate will increase 17 cents to $5.25 per thousand assessed value. The budget does not include any payments towards the upcoming renovations to the city municipal building. That will begin in 2015.

How can we talk to kids?
How many of us have (albeit inadvertently) asked a child, "What are you going to be when you grow up"? Admittedly, I have caught myself doing this.
It's a bizarre way of making small-talk with a child, isn't it?
"Having fun in the sandbox? That's a cool sandcastle... so tell me, kid, what is your ultimate goal in life?" This isn't an easy question for anyone to answer, let alone a 5-year-old.
To me, this question reinforces the way our system is put together - which is designed to mold children into consumers, so they will be instrumental in our economic growth. At the same time, it is a question that can help us understand what drives our kids, what they are passionate about, what their dreams are...
In this article, Jennifer Fulwiler proposes that we should altogether stop asking kids this question, as it "reinforces the idea that the way to find identity and value is through career" and "undermines the concept of vocation":
How can we talk with kids, encourage them to explore who they are, and get them excited about who they will become, without asking such a weighty question? How can we allow them to expand their imaginations, and let them know they are taken seriously at the same time? How can we differentiate things like a purpose in life, as opposed to a career, in a way that children can focus on and hopefully achieve their passions?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Jul 4 2013: Lizanne, I can't tell you how important this question is to me (primarily because I've done this as recent as yesterday). Its terrible that we're so fixated on molding kids into their careers while they are still so young. Sir Ken Robinson once said "Not everyone needs to go to college, and not everyone needs to go right now"
The best way to combat this is to get back to why we ask the question in the first place, and for me its because I'm excited to what they could be capable of; I'm excited about their future, I'm excited about their potential.
I have lots of conversations with young people and the best thing to ask them is "what do you like to do?" or "what are you excited about?" Talk to them the same way you would talk to anyone else, with the same candor and the same respect and the same sincerity. Allow them to connect with their present self so they can find who they want to be whenever they are ready.
Jul 6 2013: Couldn't agree more, Ricardo. There are so many other, more stimulating and inspiring ways to encourage kids to talk about what they love, instead of pinning them down with a question like that!
Allowing kids freedom to express, however they want or need to, is key! Mary's link above is the answers to the question I posed, by a kid even!
And look what happens to kids who do get the freedom to express, they turn into little rockets of enthusiasm!

Sushmita Sen takes it off and gives it to the actress
Actresses are just like us. They exchange clothes with each other. Recently, Kangna Ranaut and Sushmita Sen bumped into each other at a party.
When the younger actress admired the tee the Bengali actress had on, Sush took it off and gave it to Kangs. Right there at the party!
Take it!
Says an eyewitness, "Sush was wearing a tee that said 'I love SEX and the city.' The sex was written in bold letters. Kangna loved the tee and told Sen as much.
Sush promptly went to the washroom, took it off and gave it to Kangna and asked her to wear it.
For the rest of the evening Kangna wore Sush's tee while Sushmita simply buttoned up the jacket she'd worn over the tee."
Gals bonding
Kangna and Sushmita met on the sets of Anil Kapoor's No Problem in South Africa and got along famously.
Sen treats the new actress like a younger sister and has named her Minnie Mouse because Kangna wears a lot of colourful hair clips with tiny ponytails, when not shooting."
Says Ranaut, "Sush is a darling. I liked the T-shirt because of the tag line. Sex And The City is my favorite TV series. But I didn't expect her to give it to me.
I generally said it's cute and was shocked and charmed at her warm gesture. That's Sush for you utterly charming!"

Federal employee pay has been a target in cost-cutting efforts by the President and Congress, aided by a public perception of feds as overpaid "fat cats." Claims about public vs. private pay have swung widely - from the Federal Salary Council's data that shows feds are paid 24 percent less than the private sector, to a Cato Institute report that says feds are paid double the private sector. What's the reality? Federal News Radio brings you interviews and analysis on the federal pay debate.
Cost-cutting targets public unions
Tuesday - 1/4/2011, 2:38pm EST
The New York Times reports that in states with Republican majorities, lawmakers are trying to weaken the bargaining power and political influence of unions, including those presenting private sector employees.
The Times reports that many of the proposals to curb union influence may not become law. But whatever does pass will probably reduce the influence of unions in elections.
The attacks on unions come as officials from both political parties look to cut government pay and benefits to lower the deficit.
However, the two-year federal pay freeze does not apply to any increases required by current collective bargaining agreements.
Bob Gilson writes in FedSmith that employees exempt from the pay freeze include the ones in the Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Securities and Exchange Commission, National Credit Union Administration and "a fair number of obscure or small agencies [that] bargain pay for their organized employees."
These are some of the highest paid feds, Gilson writes.
So, did the executive order to freeze pay accidentally let unions slip through the cracks? Or was this in return for unions' support of the Obama administration in the 2008 election?
Gilson writes, "Let's test the logic trail: unions support current President in election, President issues unpopular pay freeze covering everybody but some unionized employees, if they're left out, who will notice, ergo let's do the unions a favor."

A federal district judge late last week ruled that 35 buyers at the 505 Condominium in Hell's Kitchen should get their escrow deposits refunded, overturning an earlier verdict for Parkview Developers in this closely watched case involving the Interstate Land Sales Disclosure Act.
In June 2009, 53 buyers filed suit in U.S. District Court alleging that Parkview, led by Ian Reisner and Mati Weiderpass, failed to provide the buyers with property reports at the building, at 505 West 47th Street. Eighteen of the buyers settled with the developers or closed on their purchases before a federal district judge dismissed the case in December 2010.
On Sept. 28, Judge Lawrence McKenna reversed the 35 buyers ruling, citing a reversal earlier this year in the case by Lola Bodansky against the Fifth on the Park condominium. … [more]

A U.S. District Court judge ruled against Joseph Moinian's Moinian Group in a closely watched escrow dispute with buyers at the W New York Downtown Hotel and Residences, a decision that lawyers say further establishes the applicability of the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act in New York condominium sales.
Judge Robert Patterson rejected a motion to dismiss the case by the Moinian Group, which developed the 217-unit hotel and condo at 123 Washington Street, and argued that the federal ILSA law does not apply to condos, but was designed to protect consumers against fraudulent land sales. [more]
[Updated 1:15 p.m., April 15, 2011 from a previous version of the story] Trump Soho hotel-condo recently entered discussions with a number of brokers, including Prudential Douglas Elliman, on a potential deal to replace Prodigy International, according to sources familiar with the discussions.
Developers and lenders have been in furious discussion about how to revive sales at the luxury tower, located at 246 Spring Street, following a 2010 deal with Los Angeles-based CIM Group to recapitalize more than $295 million in debt.
When asked about this last week, Elliman declined to comment, while a spokesperson for Trump Soho denied the move. "There has been no change in the sales and marketing team," the spokesperson said.

In one of the nation's most closely watched Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act cases, a federal circuit court yesterday overturned a controversial lower court ruling involving two New York condominiums, forcing the release of millions of dollars in escrow funds and potentially ending the debate over whether the federal statute applies in New York City real estate.
The U.S. District Court previously ruled that Harlem's Fifth on the Park condo and One Hunters Point condo in Long Island City were exempt from ILSA laws because even though the condos were larger than the federally mandated 100-unit limit, the developers sold less than 100 units when they got the temporary certificate of occupancy from the New York City Department of Buildings. … [more]

Steven Spinola, president of REBNY, said that the group would also be promoting more conservative government involvement in the real estate industry. TRD … [more]
For New York City real estate, 2010 in many ways marked a return to normalcy after the tumultuous aftermath of the financial crisis. As the ubiquitous real estate appraiser and Miller Samuel CEO Jonathan Miller put it: "it was a year of a sense of relief." City home prices stopped their freefall and sales activity improved considerably from the post-Lehman doldrums. Stalled condominium projects like the Sheffield and 1 Rector Park re-started sales. Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim bought Tamir Sapir's Fifth Avenue townhouse, the Duke Semans mansion, for $44 million. As the unspoken taboo on ostentatious spending faded, a number of high-end residential properties changed hands at the end of the year, including Brooke Astor's 14-room duplex at 778 Park Avenue, which finally sold after two years on the market (albeit for a significant discount from its original asking price). Japanese retailer Uniqlo snagged 89,000 square feet at 666 Fifth Avenue's former Brooks Brothers space for a record $300 million, demonstrating that retail is still thriving along the posh shopping corridor.
But the economic downturn continued to make its presence felt. The office market remained uneven and troubled lender iStar Financial fought to stave off bankruptcy amid lingering fears of a double-dip recession.
Here are The Real Deal staff's picks for the stories that most altered the New York City real estate landscape in 2010, in alphabetical order. … [more]
An Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act case brought against the 505, a new 108-unit Hell's Kitchen condominium, has been dismissed in U.S. District Court, the developer announced today, marking a defeat 35 buyers.
Fifty-three buyers filed ILSA claims, starting in June 2009. Subsequently, 18 of those either settled with the builder Parkview Developers or closed on their units at 505 West 47th Street.
But while a statement from Parkview said the developer intends to seek legal fees from the claimants, the buyers' attorney Lawrence Weiner said that his clients intend to appeal. … [more]
Fifth on the Park, the Harlem condominium that saw a landmark Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act case earlier this year, has switched up its marketing team after selling 51 percent of its 160 units since launching sales in April 2007. Halstead Property Development Marketing will become the exclusive sales team for the development, located at 1485 Fifth Avenue between 119th and 120th streets. Prices there range from $489,000 for a one-bedroom unit to $1.74 million for a four-bedroom apartment. Stephen Kliegerman, executive director for Halstead Property Development Marketing, was not immediately available for comment.
Yoav Haron, CFO with Artimus Construction, a partner with the development team, Uptown Partners, said in a statement that the team has "been very pleased with the progress made up until this point." … [more]
Three buyers, led by "Royal Pains" actress Anastasia Griffith, won the right to get their deposits back at 80 Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg.
U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Peck ruled that developer Doug Steiner's Steiner Studios failed to register the 123-unit condominium, and was not exempt from the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act despite selling less than 100 apartments at the property.
"When plaintiffs… signed their purchase agreements, the condominium was publicly announced as consisting of 123 units," Peck wrote. "Therefore the condominium was not exempt from ILSA registration and disclosure provisions under the 100-lot exemption unless 24 units were exempt at that time." … [more]

At least nine apartment buyers, represented by attorney Adam Leitman Bailey, are now trying to back out of their contracts at the Edge, a 575-unit condominium at 22 North 6th Street on the Williamsburg waterfront. Bailey, who just won a similar case at the Brompton on the Upper East Side, is using the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act to fight for his clients, Curbed first reported.

Dozens of buyers at Queens' Sky View Parc, the massive new condominium and shopping center in Flushing, filed a lawsuit yesterday in an attempt to renege on their contracts and get their deposits back from the developers, the Wall Street Journal reported. The complaint, filed by attorney Adam Leitman Bailey, makes use of a 1968 federal law known as the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act, which requires developers of large buildings to provide full disclosure to protect buyers from corruption. In the wake of the real estate crash, a surge in condo buyers' remorse has put Bailey at the forefront of a number of similar efforts to try to help buyers get out of their obligations, but the complaint at Sky View Parc is the largest of its kind thus far.

A series of recent rulings in New York and other states allowing buyers to recoup their deposits after backing out of signed contracts has enraged developers, the New York Times reported. The buyers are successfully using a 1968 federal law — known as Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act –intended to protect buyers of out-of-state land from corrupt developers or brokers. But instead, attorneys for these buyers are finding fault in wording that technically violates the law in contracts or other documentation. Lawyers have won back deposits for errors as simple as failing to give buyers a legal description of the property. Experts say that these decisions could lead to more buyer lawsuits. "The crash of the market resulted in people losing their jobs, No. 1, and No. 2, the tightening of the credit market meant they couldn't get the loans they needed to buy the property," said attorney Adam Leitman Bailey, who has represented buyers in several cases involving ILSA. "We had to find some law to help these people, and that's what ILSA did. Desperation inspired creativity." A handful of recent ILSA cases saw judges finding in favor of buyers. Earlier this month, at 20 Pine Street in Lower Manhattan, a judge denied an attempt by the sponsors to have two cases brought forward by buyers thrown out. In September, a judge ruled against Related Companies in an ILSA case, order the developer to return a $510,000 deposit on a unit at the Brompton on the Upper East Side. [NYT]

The Related Companies must return a $510,000 deposit, plus interest, to the Greek shipping executive who bought at the 22-story Brompton condominium on the Upper East Side, a federal judge ruled yesterday in a decision that could have broad implications for developers and condo buyers in New York and nationwide.
The Brompton buyers, Vasilis Bacolitsas and his wife, Sofia Nikolaidou, had signed a contract in May 2008 for a $3.4 million three-bedroom unit and later decided to back out, making use of a 1968 federal law called the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act. The obscure law, originally intended to be applied to the sales of large plots of undeveloped land, requires contracts in large developments to be in a form that can be filed with the city register.
At the Brompton and most other new condominiums, lenders stipulate that buyers are only allowed to register their contracts after they've closed on the purchase because a recorded agreement would result in a lien against the property. The decision, therefore, said the buyers' attorney, Adam Leitman Bailey, entitles "every buyer in a newly constructed condominium which has sold more than 100 units within the last three years to obtain a refund of their down payment."
Lawyers for the sponsors said the decision could be a death sentence for existing and future new development in the city and intend to appeal. [NYT]

EV Lacertae (EV Lac, Gliese 873, HIP 112460) is a faint red dwarf star 16.5 light years away in the constellation Lacerta. It is the nearest star to the Sun in that region of the sky, although with an apparent magnitude of 10, it is only barely visible with binoculars. EV Lacertae is spectral type M3.5 flare star that emits X-rays.[9]
On 25 April 2008, NASA's Swift satellite picked up a record-setting flare from EV Lacertae.[10] This flare was thousands of times more powerful than the largest observed solar flare. Because EV Lacertae is much farther from Earth than the Sun, the flare did not appear as bright as a solar flare. The flare would have been visible to the naked eye if the star had been in an observable part of the night sky at the time. It was the brightest flare ever seen from a star other than the Sun.
EV Lacertae is much younger than our Sun,[citation needed] and still spinning rapidly. The fast spin, together with its convective interior, produces a magnetic field that is much more powerful than the Sun's. This strong magnetic field is believed to play a role in the star's ability to produce such bright flares.
