The Panel considered a claim on behalf of Margraf & Co GmbH, a company liquidated by the Nazis in the late 1930s, for an oil painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir entitled Cros de Cagnes, Mer, Montagnes, now in the possession of Bristol City Council. The Margraf group of companies was owned by Jakob and Rosa Oppenheimer.
The Panel concluded that whilst the loss of the Painting amounted to a forced sale, it was not as a result of Nazi persecution but rather as a direct result of Margraf's bankers' legitimate exercise of their rights over the painting and other art works in order to realise a significant debt which the Margraf group had accrued and which had its origins prior to the Nazis coming to power. The circumstances in which Margraf lost possession of the painting came about as a result of its indebtedness to its bankers, compounded by the precarious financial position in which the Oppenheimers found themselves following inheritance taxes lawfully imposed upon them in 1929.
The Panel's conclusion was therefore that Margraf's claim to the painting was weak and that the claim should be rejected. The Panel recommended that the Oppenheimers' connection with the painting should be incorporated into its narrative history when it is displayed.

ESLi, the European Shoah Legacy Institute, in cooperation with Pavel Svoboda MEP, Chair of the European Parliament Committee on Legal Affairs, hosted a conference and exhibition on conflict looting and the importance of provenance research to cultural heritage protection. To read the press release, click here.
While Switzerland's official position is that the publication of provenance research on the internet is an important goal, virtually no research has been undertaken at most Swiss museums since the Swiss endorsement of the Washington Principles in 1998.
Any initiative has come from the Federal Office of Culture which officially supports the commitment to provenance research. Research was carried out over a decade ago into the small federal collection. It created a website - www.bak.admin.ch/rk - which allows museums to publish their research. It is currently evaluating the website to see if the content and presentation of the information can be improved.
In 2007 the Federal Office of Culture established a working group of the Federal Department of Home Affairs, the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, the cantons (Swiss Conference of Cantonal Ministers of Education, EDK) and museum associations (Association of Museums in Switzerland, VMS, Swiss Art Museums Association, VSK) on issues related to looted art.
In 2008 it carried out a survey of research and restitution in 551 Swiss museums which was published in November 2010. 461 responded. 326 responded that they were 'not at or only slightly impacted by the problem of Nazi-looted art'. 25 museums stated that they were impacted and had undertaken either comprehensive or partial provenance research; 8 replied that they had undertaken research 'to some extent'. 90 museums did not respond to the question. 261 museums (63% of respondents) stated they had conducted no research. For full details of the report, see the report 'FDHA/FDFA report on the state of work on Nazi-looted art, in particular, on the subject of provenance research' here.
In March 2015 the Federal Office of Culture convened a meeting with the 12 Swiss art museums which had officially endorsed the Washington Principles and anticipates a follow-up meeting being held in autumn 2015. These museums are the following: Aargauer Kunsthaus; Öffentliche Kunstsammlung Basel; Kunstmuseum Bern; Bündner Kunstmuseum; Musée d'Art et d'Histoire Genève; Kunsthaus Glarus; Musée Cantonal des Beaux-Arts Lausanne; Kunstmuseum Luzern; Kunstmuseum Solothurn; Kunstmuseum St.Gallen; Kunstmuseum Winterthur; Kunsthaus Zürich. Some of those 12 museums have conducted some research but it is not linked to the Federal website and only very erratically available and then not in depth on their own sites. The Office of Culture recommends that each museum be contacted individually for further information on their research progress and findings. In the future, it is planned that their provenance research will be accessible by a link to the Federal website.
The Swiss authorities have now just announced that they plan to publish the provenance research of 164 museums and collections and link it to the Office of Culture website in 2016 and 2017 and that all these museums and collections have committed to do this. They have also announced that in 2016/2017, they will, for the first time, offer financial assistance for provenance research projects whose results will be published.
10 September 2015: In a report of 26 March 2014, the Spoliation Advisory Panel recommended the restitution of the Constable painting 'Beaching a boat, Brighton' in the Tate London to the heirs of Baron Ferenc Hatvany of Hungary on the basis of the moral strength of the Claimants' case that the painting had been seized in Hungary and not restituted and the moral obligation on the Tate. On 21 May 2014 the Tate trustees met and authorised the deaccessioning of the painting. However, restitution was stayed after new evidence emerged. In October 2014 the Tate submitted the new evidence to the Panel - a Hungarian export licence of 17 December 1946, found in the archives of the Museum of Fine Arts Budapest, which included a painting described as 'Constable: Fishing Boat, oil canvas 24 x 29"'. Both claimants and the Tate accepted that this referred to the painting in question and both undertook further research which was then submitted to the Panel for its consideration.
The Panel found the following: No link had been established between Baron Hatvany and the two persons named as applying for the export licence. The work was still being described as looted in an official Hungarian government register compiled between 1946 and 1948. Hatvany was known to be buying works back at this time and there is no record of him selling other works in 1946. The Panel concluded "that on the balance of probabilities he had not recovered it after it was looted and that the export licence was being sought by persons who were either ignorant of its pre-1944 provenance or, knowing it, were sufficiently confident that the work would not in all likelihood be identified as formerly part of the Hatvany collection by the procedures then in force in the Museum of Fine Art in Budapest. Therefore, the Panel concludes that there is nothing in the new material which would lead it to reach a different conclusion and recommendation from its original Report of 26 March 2014".

Herrick Feinstein, the New York law firm where Charles Goldstein was a Senior Counsel, write:
July 30, 2015 – it is with great sadness that we share the loss of our friend and colleague, Charles Goldstein.
Charles was remarkable in many ways. After becoming New York's premier real estate attorney from the 1960s through the 90s (see the New York Times article "Charles Goldstein: Real Estate Attorney to the Powerful"), he embarked on a completely new career in art law.
In doing so, he became an international leader in the world-wide efforts to recover Nazi-looted art and return it to the families of the original owners after Ronald Lauder asked him to develop and lead the Commission for Art Recovery ("CAR"). In that capacity, he was responsible for all governmental affairs and litigation arising out of CAR's activities in Europe and the United States, and supervised claims, negotiations and litigation in many countries around the world.
Charles was also a frequent lecturer at art restitution seminars in the U.S. and Europe, and the author of numerous articles on the subject. Lawyers, government officials, experts, journalists and others throughout the world regularly sought his sage advice on art restitution matters.
It was a true inspiration for many of us to work so closely with Charles.
Edited by Dr Andreas Strobl of the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung in Munich and published by Deutscher Kunstverlag, the catalogue (and associated exhibition) arises from a four year project to identify the provenance of some 617 works, mostly by Rudolf von Alt but also 16 by Jakob von Alt, and many from the Martin Bormann collection which acquired them from Viennese Jewish collections (http://www.zikg.eu/projekte/projekte-zi/rudolf-von-alt-zeichnungen-und-aquarelle). The catalogue contains references to and research into von Alt works associated with names of Viennese collectors, ranging from Blauhorn to Bloch-Bauer, Heissfeld to Klinger, Mautner to Zuckerkandl. The catalogue is widely available for purchase.
He seeks a revision of the regulations by which the Dutch Restitutions Committee makes its decisions and asks for an assurance of an independent assessment of the Semmel claim.
On 25 April 2013 the Dutch Restitutions Committee handed down a binding decision that a 'Madonna and Child with Wild Roses' painting by Jan van Scorel now in the Centraal Museum Utrecht would not be returned to the heirs of Richard Semmel, its rightful owner, despite the Committee finding that the sale of the painting by Semmel was involuntary. Utilitisng new regulations, the Committee found that the interest of the Museum in keeping the painting it acquired in 1958 should outweight the rights of the heirs to its restitution. No compensation was offered.
The heirs subsequently took the case to the Court of Utrecht which ruled in January 2015 that the decision was invalid and that the procedures of the Committee did not provide equality for both parties. Prior to the court's ruling, the Dutch Culture Minister Mrs Bussemaker suggested to the claimants that they seek alternative dispute resolution. However, the museum refused and suggested instead that they return to the Restitutions Committee for another decision, saying they had no reason to question its procedures.
Mr Ossmann writes that the heirs' second attempt to find a new impartial ruling was through Parliament which proposed to the Minister that an ad hoc committe be set up for the purpose. The Minister asked the Chair of the Restitutions Committee to advise and he said that wa unnecessary and that the Restittuions Committee itself could re-hear the case. Despite the court having specifically ruled that the procecures and criteria of the Committee explicitly favoured the current possessor of a claimed painting, the Minister nonetheless accepted the Chair's proposal, which further ruptured the required independence between government and the Committee.
Mr Ossmann's open letter calls upon the Minister to revise the regulations which the court criticised as not providing impartial justice. He writes that it is clear that museums will not willingly give up artworks even when there is a valid claim for them.and the Committee's regulations make that the most likely outcome of any claim. Mr Ossmann further calls upon the Minister to say how the Committee could provide a different ruling given that the criteria have not changed, and seeks the provision of a fair and speedy solution for the claimants by the establishment of an ad-hoc committee which can guarantee a just, independent and impartial decision..

Prominent U.S. museums have evaded the restitution of Nazi-looted artworks to their rightful owners and heirs by refusing to resolve claims on their facts and merits and by asserting technical defenses, such as statutes of limitations, according to a new World Jewish Restitution Organization (WJRO) report, authored with the pro-bono assistance of the American law firm Dickstein Shapiro LLP. The report calls for three recommendations to promote merit-based resolutions of Holocaust-era claims against U.S. museums.
These recommendations include encouraging U.S. museums to live up to the spirit of the Washington Conference Principles, Terezin Declaration and the Guidelines of the American Alliance of Museums (AAM); having the AAM ensure compliance of its member museums by withholding accreditation; and enacting legislation to extend statutes of limitations for Holocaust-era restitution claims.
American museums named in the report as improperly defending against Nazi-looted art claims include the Toledo Museum of Art, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art at the University of Oklahoma. "Museums are central to a civilized society," said Gideon Taylor, WJRO chair of operations. "The American museum community, while understandably an advocate for artwork to remain in public hands, must follow through on its prior commitments not to taint collections with art stolen during the Holocaust."

Erna Felicia and Hans Lachmann-Mosse, Mosse's daughter and son-in-law, were unlawfully deprived of the drawing, 'Lady with Red Blouse', shortly after the Nazi takeover in Germany in 1933. Oskar Reinhart purchased the pastel from the art dealer Fritz Nathan in Munich in 1934. He had been regularly in touch with Nathan since 1928 and later helped him escape to Switzerland in 1936. He paid 3,632 Swiss Francs, which was a customary price for high-quality drawings by Menzel at the time. In 1940, Oskar Reinhart gave the work to the foundation, which he had established to make his art collection available to the public.
Launched in 2012, the Mosse Art Restitution Project shed light on the circumstances that led to the bankruptcy of the Mosse publishing house as well as to the seizure of the collection and public auction of the objects in 1934 in Berlin. Mosse's descendants had already left Germany. Due to these new insights, the foundation in its press release, writes that "the foundation board of the Oskar Reinhart Foundation contacted the heirs and offered to restitute the pastel, which had been expropriated from the family in 1934. Oskar Reinhart strictly avoided offers with unclear provenance in the 1930s. The foundation board is convinced that it acts in the interest of the founder by giving back a work that from today's perspective would not have been purchased by Reinhart if he had known about the exact circum-stances of the sale."

15 June 2015: Established in Boca Raton, Florida, the Foundation has identified some 113 Torah scrolls in Nizhny Novgorod in Russia and states that it is "the only organization that is dedicated to locating, recovering and restoring Judaica to communal and educational uses".
In its description of itself, the Foundation writes: "From 2011 to now, a small group of "regular" Jews from Florida came together with some of the world's leading experts in Holocaust education and museums and a group of Rabbis from Russia, Hungary, Austria, the Czech Republic, Cyprus and the United States. The timing was right. The Government officials in Russia were cooperative and recognized the importance of restoring the Judaica, which could be used to help strengthen Jewish communities in the own country and bring honor to their country. The result was that The Foundation has successfully located, documented and started to restore 113 Torahs from the Regional Universal Scientific Library of Nizhny Novgorod, Russia."
The Foundation has identified looted Judaica in the following locations:
In Belarus - Torahs, Rare Books, Megilahs, Manuscripts & Silver: in the National Library of Belarus (NBB), the State Museum of History and Culture of Belarus in Minsk, the State Historical Archive, the Historical Museum of Mogileve, and in the Historical Museum of Vitebsk;
In Russia - Torahs, Rare Books, Megilahs, Religious Texts: in the Russian Ministry of Defense Central Archives, in the Special (Osoby) Archive (TsGOA, TsKhIDK), in the Russian State Military Archive & State Historical Museum (GIM), in the Regional Scientific Library In Nizhny Novgorod, in the Regional Library on the Volga.and in the Nizhny Novgorod Art Museum;
In Poland - Torahs, Books, Silver, Ark Curtains & Synagogue Items: in Warsaw's National Museum, in the Krakow Historical Museum, in the National Musuem in Kielc, in the Historical Museum in Lodz and in the Regional museums in Lublin, Nowy Sacz, Tarnow, Bialoystok, Kazimierz Dolny, Rzeszow, Drohiczyn and Wlodawa;
In Romania - Torahs, Jewish Books and manuscripts;
In Ukraine - Torahs, Rare Books and Manuscripts: the National Vernadsky Library of Ukraine holds 150,000 books and manuscripts dating to the 16th Century

On 4 June Judge John Walter issued his ruling on the long-standing claim of the heirs of Lilly Cassirer to recover the Pissarro painting which she was forced to sell in 1939. The painting is now in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, acquired in 1976 by Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza from a New York dealer. Judge Walter ruled that Spain had title to the painting but called on the Museum to follow international principles and 'do the right thing'. To read the ruling, click here.

This week's letters (10/29/13)
In the Oct. 1 issue of Numismatic News, longtime NN contributor Paul Green states that, "The precise reason for the Eisenhower dollar was not really for use in commerce. It was simply a case of wanting to do something to honor Dwight D. Eisenhower after his death in 1969."
I heard a different version. Continue reading

High-performing charter schools will now have access to more state money. What will that mean for the alternative schools and their traditional counterparts?
District budgets rely on a number of moving parts – like whether voters agree to pay extra taxes, or how the legislature decides to calculate state funding.
Two charter schools that cater to low-performing students are considered failing by the state, and are fighting that designation.
With property tax caps in place, many school districts turn to voters to help fund capital projects – how do they make the sale?
SB 1 could change the state superintendent's role on the State Board of Education – but she would retain many of her other duties.
The State Board of Education voted last month to close a failing middle school in Gary. What could that mean for the district as a whole?
As the decision deadline approaches, students considering college in Indiana are weighing the potential implications of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
Education policymakers are in the midst of deciding which standardized test Indiana students will take, and how much they will cost.
Indiana is one of a handful of states pushing for "college and career ready" academic standards. What does that phrase actually mean?
Schools can face a series of indirect sanctions if enough parents decide to opt their students out of the annual ISTEP+ test.

text: The Barska 2.5-15x56 AR6 Riflescope is a highly developed large caliber scope. The AR6 was developed by the demand of shooters of mid to large caliber rifles. Shooters have enjoyed using Barska riflescopes for years and have now asked for a high quality riflescope for large caliber rifles that chamber the popular .308, .30-6 and .50 large caliber bullets. The AR6 Scope features the new 6x magnification technology, which allows a wider magnification range of intervals of 6x. The 6x magnification optical design allows the scope to have an extreme low power of 2.5x and can zoom in up to a maximum of 15x. This wide power range allows for comfortable targeting at multiple distances with a wide field of view.

Me wanty.
Eco Vintage Re-used iPhone Dock Magnavox.
I rarely buy anything that I don't eat or drink. So it's rare for me, these days, to get that Clueless shopping frenzy feeling. I got it about this one. Good thing I'm temporarily broke (drug habit), or I'd have put in an order already.
Via Dwell: "…makes a simple sound channel to clearly amplify your iPhone's tiny, tinny speaker loud and clear across the room. Contact Matt for details at info [at] made-craft [dot] com."
Info via DWR, which is selling limited run:
Designer Matt Richmond's iVictrola merges turn-of-the-century technology with new-millennium gadgetry. The steampunk aesthetic of this new fangled contraption belies the simplicity of the design – place your iPhone in the indented "dock" in the walnut base and turn on some tunes. The sound is carried from a hole in the base, amplified by the metal Magnavox horn to fill the room.
- Solid walnut base is hand-carved from high-end furniture production remnants.
- Vintage Magnavox horn is made from metal, which maximizes amplification.
- Amplification is entirely acoustic – no electricity or batteries required.

I love it, too! It would be fun to make one. Finding a Vintage Magnavox horn might be difficult, but an old horn from a discarded tuba would work, too. Yes, it's mono but better than the little speakers on the iPhone. Thanks for posting…
Excellent site, where did you come up with the knowledge in this blog post? Im happy I found it though, ill be checking back soon to see what other articles you have.

Six Steps to Help You Establish a Six Figure Practice
By Sharon Desjarlais, CC and Michele McGrew
Does the idea of making $100,000 a year or better feel like a pipe dream? Or does the thought of it leave you feeling exhausted? Then you're probably making the mistake of thinking your individual healing sessions should be your highest-priced offer.Even if you charge a healthy fee, tying yourself to individual sessions limits your income to the number of clients you can see in any given week. When your client load is low, your income suffers. And when it's high, you're making more money, but you're also working too hard. And you're not modeling the kind of self-care you want your clients to commit to.
So, how do you grow a healthy six-figure practice? By changing your business model. Instead of offering individual sessions, offer high-end private programs that attract clients who are willing to make a generous investment in their health. After teaching practitioners how to design and sell private programs for years, we promise you this: right now you have clients who would gladly step into a high-end program ... if only you offered one.
A high-end program is designed around four specific features:
Ready to design your first high-end program? Follow these six simple steps and you'll be well on your way.
Step 1: Your Signature System
The key to crafting your first high-end program is to start with the topic we shared in our last Massage Today column called, "How to Clear the Path to a Wealth of Loyal Clients" A comprehensive high-end program is designed to walk a client through each step of your system to achieve the outcome they want.
Step 2: The Program Structure
Once you've got your signature system, how long do you think it would take to walk a client through every step? Answer that question and you'll know how long your high-end program should last. Of course, radiant health is a lifelong process. But that doesn't mean your high-end program has to last a lifetime. Most practitioners get excellent results delivering their programs over a period of six months. Some programs are longer and others are shorter, but six months is a great place to start.
Once you have your program time frame, you're ready to create your monthly structure. Here's one format that works very well for many practitioners.
Month 1
Start with a 1-day private retreat that covers the first couple steps in your program and includes one or two hands-on sessions. This kind of immersion experience gives your clients the big breakthrough they'll build on through the rest of the program. And it jump starts their transformation, giving them the speed they're looking for. Follow up the retreat with a telephone check-in and healing session within two weeks.
Months 2 through 6
Do a hands-on or distance healing session two times each month. Conduct a simple telephone check-in once a month between healing sessions. Give your clients exercises, tips and assignments between sessions to continue their progress through each step of your signature system. Add in priority e-mail access to you with a reasonable 48-hour turnaround during weekdays.
Final Healing Session
Celebrate with a half-day wrap-up retreat. This gives your clients room to reflect on all their improvements. And fully embody their accomplishments.
Step 3: Your Core Components
Once you've got your signature system and basic program structure laid out, the next step is to choose your core program components. What services do you already offer that you'd incorporate into the program? And what other tools and modalities would you love to bring in to facilitate each step of your system? A private program gives you plenty of time to blend in even self-healing techniques that complement your bodywork. Consider adding components like guided meditations, creative journaling and nutritional tips.
As you see in the program format above, you always want to give your clients exercises, tips and assignments between sessions to maintain their healing momentum and prevent backsliding. But whatever you do, don't call it homework. Work sounds like pain and no one wants more of that. Clients who don't feel well also don't want to be overwhelmed with information. They want a connection. They want to feel witnessed. And they want a transformation. So resist the urge to throw every one of your therapeutic tools into your program. Instead, carve a few of them away and offer them as bonuses.
Step 4: Attractive Bonuses
One of the most delicious aspects of a high-end program is having the opportunity to give your clients a rich and indulgent experience that makes them feel as treasured as they are. That's where the benefit of extra bonuses comes in. It's like adding a great big gift on top of all your other core components. To make this easy, include some of the self-healing tools you carved away from your core components. Especially tools that don't take any more of your time or energy, like home-study systems, home-healing products, even products that other healers offer. As long as they complement your system, your program and your clients, it's a win-win.
Step 5: A Compelling Title
The title of your program is often the first detail people see when they're deciding whether to sign up. And like anywhere else in life, first impressions count. That's why you want to give your program a name that makes an instant connection. What's the biggest outcome or result clients want from your therapy? Name your program after that and you'll have a magnetic title.
Step 6: A Healthy Price Point
Here's where you might be inclined to backslide and devalue the rich program you've created. We understand; you're probably stepping into a level of investment you've never offered before. So before you decide on a final price, take some time to track the ripple effects of your therapy in your client's life.
When your favorite client is feeling fit and fabulous, how does that impact her job performance and income? When she's feeling well-rested and patient, how is she responding to her kids, her friends or her spouse? When she's finally feeling free of the pain and stress that have been her constant companion for too many years, what is she able to see in her future that wasn't even possible before? That's where you'll find the value of your program. And only then will you be able to price it for what it's truly worth.
For a typical 6-month program, our clients find $4,000 to $6,000 a great place to start. That means, instead of having to work with 17 to 25 clients a week, you only need 17 to 25 clients a year to break the six-figure barrier. And when you have that kind of breathing room, you're being as generous to yourself as you are to your clients. And you're offering a healing gift that takes your clients – and your practice – to the next level.

nothing particularly special about this location. Average sub made to order with good customer service. pretty much the same as any other location.
We went to this subway with four people in our group. The food was good as we have grown the expect from Subway. The only drawback was the lack of a public restroom to wash up.
Subway is always good, but the service we had was GREAT!

At the start of this scintillating slice of romantic suspense from prolific bestseller Roberts (Sweet Revenge), Lt. Phoebe MacNamara, the chief hostage negotiator for the Savannah, Ga., PD, meets Duncan Swift, a sports bar owner, as they both try to prevent a suicidal bartender Duncan fired from jumping off a roof on St. Patrick's Day. In the aftermath, a romance develops between Phoebe and Duncan, though in typical Roberts style the enigmatic Phoebe's devotion to career and family, who include a young daughter and an agoraphobic mother, creates tension in their relationship. After Phoebe survives a vicious attack within her own precinct house by an unknown assailant, it becomes clear that someone is intent on harming Phoebe and those close to her. A courageous protagonist, deft plotting and the sultry Savannah backdrop all add up to another winner for consummate storyteller Roberts. (July)Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information

Library JournalPhoebe MacNamara is the top hostage negotiator on the Savannah police force, but she has yet to deal with the guy who assaulted her at her precinct house and is now leaving nasty notes at her door. Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club main selections. Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information.
Kirkus ReviewsMurder mixes with anguish in steamy Savannah. FBI-trained hostage negotiator Phoebe MacNamara is a lieutenant in the Savannah police department. Ever since Phoebe and her family were held hostage when she was 12, her mother has been agoraphobic, and Phoebe and her brother Carter still bear the psychological scars, but Phoebe's used the memory to hone her skills. While talking a suicidal bartender off a ledge, she meets his boss, Duncan Swift. The charming millionaire coaxes her into meeting for a drink, and their relationship slowly deepens. But life takes a turn for the worse when a misogynist cop botches a hostage situation. Suspended, he blames Phoebe and retaliates by viciously attacking her in the precinct house stairwell. He loses his job, but his father's connections keep him out of jail. Phoebe is physically and mentally injured, but her family and her blossoming relationship with Duncan help her cope until a dangerous pattern develops: A strange man keeps crossing her path. Dead animals begin appearing on her doorstep. A hostage taker is shot after she talks him into surrendering. Her ex-husband is brutally murdered by the mystery man, who phones her with sadistic threats. Is it the spiteful disgraced cop or someone from her past? Phoebe must identify the killer before he can carry out his final outrage. Nerve-wracking suspense leavened with romance and spiced with sex: another hit for the prolific Roberts (Blue Smoke, 2005, etc.). Agent: Amy Berkower/Writers House LLC
