As Early-Season Losses Mount, the Nationals Look to the Future - The New York Times
Baseball|As Early-Season Losses Mount, the Nationals Look to the Future

ATLANTA, April 12 — As the Washington Nationals played their first opening day game at home under their new ownership last week at Robert F. Kennedy Stadium, their fans complained about the late delivery of season tickets, parking problems and cold hot dogs at the concession stands.
What else could go wrong? Only the pitching, the fielding, the hitting and the health of the players. Before the Nationals beat Atlanta, 2-0, here Thursday night to improve to 2-8 over all, they were on a six-game losing streak. On Thursday, Washington starter Jason Bergmann gave up one hit in six innings and Chad Cordero got the save despite allowing the Braves to load the bases in the ninth.
“If I would have blown this it would have been devastating to me and to the whole team,” Cordero said.
Three players were already injured on a roster with the third-lowest payroll in the major leagues, $36 million. Several others fought the flu as the team prepared to travel to New York for a three-game series with the Mets, a team that last year employed Manny Acta as a third-base coach.
Acta, the Nationals’ first-year manager, is 38, the youngest manager in the majors and the only current one from the Dominican Republic. He kept the clubhouse closed longer than usual after Wednesday’s 8-3 defeat to speak to his team.
“It’s time to cut it off,” he said of the losing streak, but not of his beard. Earlier, he joked that he would not shave his fledgling goatee until the team started winning. Acta said it was important that his players not start to believe that, ‘Jeez, we might be as bad as people are saying.’ ”
The Nationals were wards of Major League Baseball as the Montreal Expos from early 2002 through 2004 and for almost two seasons after that in the District of Columbia until the franchise was sold last season to the Theodore Lerner family for $450 million.
The owners, who are real estate developers, are rebuilding the operation even as the city spends $611 million on a stadium to open next year. Much is promised by Stan Kasten, the new team president, who built the Braves into a perennial contender in his previous job.

For the time being, however, the Nationals resemble not so much the current Braves but the old Washington Senators, who inspired the witticism that the nation’s capital was “first in war, first in peace and last in the American League.”
Kasten said he understood the frustration of a city that went without a major league team from 1972 through 2004. But he takes a longer view.
“To build a stadium from scratch and a franchise from scratch in the most important city in the world is the coolest challenge that there is,” Kasten said. “I’m pretty confident it’s going to happen quicker than what most people expect.”
He said he was more prepared for the challenges of rebuilding than the news media and the fans because he went through the same process with the Braves. But, he acknowledged, “For the next little while, I’m going to be the village idiot every night.”
The Nationals are a curious collection. After trimming $25 million in payroll, they invited 37 pitchers to training camp. The 2007 starting rotation won a total of two major league games last season. Their ace is the right-hander John Patterson, who is coming off arm surgery.
Their cleanup hitter, Dmitri Young, is a first baseman shed late last season by Detroit. As the Tigers were on their way to the World Series, Young battled depression, alcohol abuse and domestic-violence charges.
He joined camp on a minor league contract and did not have many other options. But he used to play for Jim Bowden, the Nationals’ general manager, when both were in Cincinnati. Because Nick Johnson is still recovering from a broken leg, Young found work. “I let God take care of the situation, and he did,” Young said.
He knows something about miraculous franchise turnarounds. Young played for the Tigers in 2003 when they lost 119 games. He said he could share his perspective with the many young players around him.
“You get beat up and you learn from it,” Young said. “This team is going to start spending money next year. Whether I’m here or not, I’m going to wish these guys well. They have a top-notch organization and a lot of young guys who want to prove themselves in the big leagues.”

Young, 33, noted that he was only five years younger than Acta. Among the younger players with the highest potential is Ryan Zimmerman, the 22-year-old third baseman who finished second last year in the voting for National League rookie of the year with a batting average of .287, 20 home runs and 110 runs batted in.
“The experience I’m getting is going to help me a lot later in my career,” Zimmerman said. “I’m very lucky to have the opportunity I have at the age I’m at.” As for this season, he said: “There’s no way it can go like this all year. It’s still early. There’s plenty of time to turn it around.”
And there is much to turn around. In Wednesday’s loss, a throw to second base by pitcher Jerome Williams skipped out to center field. A throw toward home plate by left fielder Kory Casto skipped by a cutoff man as a run scored.
With one out and his team trailing by two runs, shortstop Felipe López inexplicably tried to steal third base and was thrown out. The Nationals lead the majors in errors with 11. After second baseman Ronnie Belliard dropped a pop-up to aid a Braves rally on Tuesday, he said, “Nobody’s perfect.”
Kasten has vowed to build the farm system. He said he was surprised to discover that the Nationals had no minor league prospects from the Dominican Republic, so the team spent $1.4 million to sign Esmailyn Gonzalez, a 17-year-old switch-hitting shortstop known as Smiley who will play for Class A Vermont this summer.
One reason Acta was hired, Kasten said, was that he managed the Dominican Republic last spring in the World Baseball Classic. José Rijo, a former Reds pitcher from the Dominican Republic, is a special assistant to the general manager and is chief administrator of the Nationals’ Dominican Academy in San Cristobal.
“Dominicans are fairly important to modern-day baseball,” Kasten said with wry understatement. The Nationals’ presence in Latin America, he said, was being announced “with big, bold, neon letters.”
Other repairs completed or in progress include improving the television exposure in a region shared with the Baltimore Orioles and healing a rift with Frank Robinson, the former manager who left with harsh words after he was not retained in a front-office position. The Nationals want to hold a “Frank Robinson Day” at R.F.K.
“We continue to leave that door open,” Kasten said. As for all the problems the fans faced on opening day, Kasten said, “I saw a lot of things that need to be fixed and need to be changed, and they will be.”
For now, the Nationals’ winning percentage of .200 puts Washington exactly where the city ranks alphabetically among 30 teams: last. But in sports, “W” also stands for “win.” Beyond the fence in the new stadium, they are planting cherry trees, establishing roots, hoping things soon blossom.

Listen to French Legends: The Life and Legacy of Cardinal Richelieu - Audiobook | Audible.com
"Deception is the knowledge of kings." - Cardinal Richelieu
Decades before becoming the most important person in Louis XIII's court, Richelieu worked his way up through the Catholic Church and politics on parallel tracks, so that in a span of two years he became both a Cardinal and the king's Chief Minister. From there, Richelieu molded the functions of his position to such a powerful extent that he is often viewed today as akin to the world's first Prime Minister. For a generation, Richelieu literally had his hand in every important decision, forever altering the destiny of both France and Europe as a whole.
What did you love best about French Legends: The Life and Legacy of Cardinal Richelieu?
It provided a good timeline of events and actions of Cardinal Richelieu. He was one of five children and a sickly child. He became a French clergyman and was a nobleman. He went to Paris where he seemed to be promiscuous.
What was one of the most memorable moments of French Legends: The Life and Legacy of Cardinal Richelieu?
There were many. He moved in the right circles and rose in the Catholic Church. He always seemed to be at the right place at the right time.
He provides a more clear understanding with a nice tonal quality in his voice. He's one of my favorite narrators, especially with the Charles Rivers Editors.
There was a lot of history packed into this audiobook. History of the Cardinal who was involved with many people and places.

Internazionale and Milan draw derby after Ezequiel Schelotto equaliser

Sunday 24 February 2013 17.18 EST
Four days after Milan's surprise Champions League win over Barcelona the Italian club were brought back to earth by a 1-1 draw with Internazionale at San Siro.
Milan had dominated the first half and took the lead through Stephan El Shaarawy in the 21st minute but their city rivals responded after the break and the substitute, Ezequiel Schelotto, equalised with 19 minutes remaining.
The 20-year-old El Shaarawy put the Rossoneri ahead with his 16th goal of the season, deftly controlling a pass from Kevin-Prince Boateng before scoring with a finish high into the net past Samir Handanovic.
Six minutes later the Inter goalkeeper prevented Milan from taking a two-goal lead with an acrobatic save to keep out a powerful header from Mario Balotelli.
Schelotto, an Argentina-born midfielder who now plays for Italy, equalised by heading in a cross from Yuto Nagatomo to earn Inter a point. The draw left Milan third in the Serie A table, six points behind second-placed Napoli, who visit Udinese on Monday, and 13 points adrift of Juventus, who defeated Siena 3-0 earlier on Sunday.
Internazionale are a point behind Milan and level with Lazio, who host struggling Pescara on Monday.

Midwest Housing Equity Group, Inc
1. THE Affordable Housing Tax credit PROGRAM
Presented by Dauby O’Connor & Zaleski, LLC and Midwest Housing Equity Group

2. Panelists
Jeff Lathrop
Dauby O’Connor & Zaleski, LLC
Jim Rieker
Midwest Housing Equity Group, Inc.

3. Background

The Tax Reform Act of 1986 signed by President Reagan
4. Curbed tax shelters and introduced Section 42
5. Pre-1986 multifamily housing developments sold to individual investors
6. Post-1986 Section 42 multifamily housing developments sold to corporate investors
7. Market for LIHTC was very slim 1987-1989 with tax credits rotting on the vine
8. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 signed by President Clinton – made the LIHTC permanent
9. From 1987 through August 1993, the LIHTC program was subject to various sunsets

Tax Credit Pricing

Initially investors were any corporation looking for a good return
10. Many corporate controllers/ treasurers were skeptical of an unproven product LIHTC
11. Result – pricing was in the mid .40 range in 1987-1988 producing 20%+ IRR
12. Early in mid-1990s – Financial institutions embrace LIHTC
13. Banks, GSE’s – fair return plus Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) credit

Tax Credit Pricing

2000-2007 – Substantially all of the LIHTC purchased by financial institutions and GSE’s
14. 2008 – Sub-Prime mortgage crisis followed by full scale financial meltdown – Investors retreat
15. Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 intended to boost returns bringing non-financial investors to the LIHTC market
16. 2009 – Many 2007 and 2008 deals unfunded and little prospect for 2009
17. American Recovery & Reinvestment Act intended to jumpstart the LIHTC industry

Legislative Movements

HERA of 2008
18. The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 signed by President Bush on July 30, 2008
19. ARRA of 2009
20. The American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 signed by President Obama on February 17, 2009

HERA of 2008

Temporary provisions:
21. Increase in-state LIHTC allocation authority by 10% = .20 (per capita) for 2008 and 2009
22. In 2010 credit authority returns to the 2008 amount $2.00 indexed for inflations
23. Additional $11 billion nationally of Tax-Exempt Housing Bonds in 2008 (additional 38.6% for each state)
24. Authority to issue bonds may be carried forward to 2010
25. Temporarily fix at 9% the credit rate for new construction and substantial rehabilitation costs
26. Effective for buildings placed into service after July 30, 2008 and before December 31, 2013
27. The 9% credit as it is called was the rate in 1987 that provided on a present value basis 70% of new construction or rehabilitation costs; thereafter, the rate was adjusted monthly based on prevailing interest rates. The rate in July 2008 was 7.93%; the November 2009 rate is 7.76%. This provision increases credits otherwise allocable for these properties by 13% to 15%.

HERA of 2008 (continued)

Permanent provisions:
28. Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) Relief
29. LIHTC offset AMT for buildings placed into service after December 31, 2007. AMT was an issued for many smaller C corporations.
30. Example: Widely used C Corp. with $5M of taxable income and no other AMT adjustments could use $700,000 in LIHTC under prior law; now is can use $1,581,250 (an increase of 83%)
31. HUD Moderate Rehabilitation projects are no longer prohibited from participation in the LIHTC program. Effective for buildings placed into service after July 30, 2008.
32. The 10-year hold provision for acquisition credits is no longer applicable to federally or state assisted buildings. HUD Section 8, 221(d)3, 221(d)4, 236 and RD section 515 properties and similarly assisted properties under various state programs.
33. Verify with state HFA for guidance respective as each state’s interpretation may vary
34. Allowable Related Party interest in subsequent ownership is increased to 50% from 10%.
35. This will facilitate acquisition rehabilitation projects where the GP remains in the acquiring LP

HERA of 2008 (continued)

Permanent provisions (continued):
36. 30% basis boost previously allowed for properties located in qualified census tracts or difficult to develop areas is allowed for any project that needs additional credits to be financially feasible as determined by the state housing finance agencies. Apples to projects placed in service after July 30, 2008. Does not apply to Tax Exempt bond financed properties.
37. The definition of federal subsidy no longer includes “or any below market federal loan” allowing HOME, RD and section 515 projects to utilize the 9% credit for new construction or substantial rehabilitation costs. Tax Exempt bond financed projects are still limited to the 4% tax credit.
38. Federal Grants received after construction no longer reduce tax credit basis – relief for IRP financed deals and other properties receiving federal operating subsidies.
39. Allowable eligible basis for community service facilities increased to 25% of total cost up to $15M; plus 10% of total cost in excess of $15M.

HERA of 2008 (continued)

Permanent provisions (continued):
40. Minimum threshold to qualify for substantial rehabilitation is increased to $6,000 per unit or 20% of acquisition basis from $3,000 or 10%. Indexed for inflation going forward.
41. LIHTC bond posting requirement is eliminated provided investor agrees to extend statute of limitations to three years after IRS notification.
42. Extends the time period to satisfy the 10% cost incurred test necessary for carryover to 1 year from 6 months.
43. Tax Exempt Bond rules now mirror LIHTC rules – Next available unit, Full time student, and Single room occupancy.
44. Tenant re-certifications no longer required for 100% LIHTC properties.

Example

Change in Maximum Credits due to 9% and Basis Boost:

	Adjusted Eligible Basis	10,000,000	10,000,000
	X 130% Basis Boost	100%	130%
	X Applicable Percentage	7.94%	9.00%
	= Total Annual Credits	794,000	1,170,000
	X 10 Years (Total Credits)	7,940,000	11,700,000
47.35% Increase
Obviously, HERA put substantially more resources on the table to attract other non-financial investors back into the LIHTC market.

45. ARRA of 2009

Not withstanding the tremendous resources included in the HERA legislation to boost the LIHTC industry, many 2007 and most 2008 allocated properties had not closed due to the frozen LIHTC market. In response to this, ARRA included provisions to “jump start” stalled projects.
46. Section 1602: Grants to States for Low-Income Housing Projects in Lieu of Low-Income Housing Credits
47. aka the “Credit Exchange Program”
48. State HFA’s have the ability to exchange eligible LIHTC allocations with Treasury for $0.85 per dollar of credit allocation exchanged. The proceeds from the exchange are to be used by the HFA to provide funds to projects with or without an allocation of LIHTC in the form of grants or forgivable loans.

ARRA of 2009 (continued)

The amount of LIHTC an HFA may exchange for $0.85 is equal to the following:
49. 100% of the state housing credit ceiling for 2009 attributable to unused and returned credits from the 2008 housing credit ceiling plus any amount of state housing credit ceiling returned in 2009. (This provisions applies to 2007 and 2008 allocations).
50. 40% of the state housing credit ceiling for 2009 attributable to the 2009 ceiling including any amounts reallocated from other states with unallocated credits. Amounts exchanged under this provision serve to reduce the state’s 2009 credit ceiling.

ARRA of 2009 (continued)

Grants or loans received by the project from exchange funds are not includable in taxable income and do not reduce basis. Treat as tax exempt interest income.
51. Treatment at the state level may vary
52. Funds received cannot exceed 85% of the amount Recipients of exchange funds must demonstrate a good faith effort to obtain private equity commitments. Good faith effort is determined by each state HFA.
53. of buildings eligible basis including any increase for buildings located in high cost areas. Direct tracing is not required.
54. Funds received under this program must be expended by December 31, 2011 – originally this date was December 31, 2010

ARRA of 2009 (continued)

Funds may be used in a development with Tax Exempt bond financing
55. Exchange does not mean one for one – funds obtained by a HFA from credits returned by one project may be used to fund other projects.
56. Eligible buildings must not be placed into service prior to 2009; however, substantially complete buildings are eligible. In this case, exchange funds can be used to repay equity or construction loans.
57. State HFA’s must provide a recapture provision on any sub-award to assure compliance.

ARRA of 2009 (continued)

Title VII – Tax Credit Assistance Program (TCAP)
58. Appropriated $2.25 billion under the HOME Investment Partnerships program for a grant program to provide funds for capital investments in Low-Income Housing Tax Credit projects.
59. Eligible projects are those receiving LIHTC award under Section 42(h) or 1400N during the period October 1, 2006 through September 30, 2009.
60. Funds are intended to address funding gaps created by diminished investor demand for LIHTC.
61. TCAP funds may be used for eligible basis items.
62. Most HOME requirements do not apply, except for environmental review. Other cross cutting federal requirements do apply – Davis Bacon, Fair Housing, Accessibility and others.

What is the Real Risk?

Ownership risks of multifamily low-income rental housing pools
82. Mitigated by MHEG’s investment policies, ongoing management and financial oversight, as well as MHEG’s financial strength
83. Compliance risk
84. Mitigated by MHEG’s continuing compliance practices and oversight
85. Changes in current law
86. Highly improbable any law change would affect any current investments
87. Reputation Risk
88. We take “the high road”, we know that we represent our fund participants who are financial pillars of their communities

Points to Consider
MHEG does not want the capital you need for normal operations.

The dollars you are considering placing with MHEG are actually dollars you owe to the IRS as a result of your successful operations.
89. You receive no monetary return with your payment to the IRS.
90. You will receive an above market return and a CRA Investment Credit, if applicable, when you purchase tax credits with MHEG.
91. Your participation benefits the community and you receive a monetary return without jeopardizing your normal business capital.

Amazon.co.uk:Customer reviews: W1207A Womens Black Dunlop Festival Wellies Wellington Rain Snow Boots Size Uk 6
W1207A Womens Black Dunlop Festival Wellies Wellington Rain Snow Boots...
4.0 out of 5 starsSeem good wellies, but think about size.
Nice and light, and seem to be waterproof in wet grass and puddles, but not tested in deeper water yet. They are mid-calf length, coming to the widest part only. I got a 6, even though I'm a 6-and-a-half or 7 usually, because of the review below. They are quite snug, and a little hard to pull over my heel - I don't think I could get really thick socks on. They are also snug around my calf, and will only just allow for skinny jeans. I have reasonably well-developed calves, but they are not abnormally large!
1.0 out of 5 starsNot the Dunlop I remember.
I chose these as Dunlop is a brand I have used before. I was suspicious of the low price and it seems rightly so. I have standard UK size feet and relatively slim ankles but I could not get either foot past the ankle of these boots. I don't know where these are made but I'm guessing it is where people tend to be smaller than the UK. I tried on several pairs of wellies in a local store and was able to get my feet into them all with relative ease. I have returned these boots and purchased another pair having tried them on. The retailer provided a label and accepted the return without quibble, so no complaints there.
I only used these boots for walks in the park. After five months there was a split in the upper of one boot and after a year a split in the upper of the other boot. I could just about use them, unless it rained, until three days ago (14 months after buying them) when I felt something strange as I walked and discovered a 99mm split along and then beside the seam of one boot.
I have always used Dunlop boots and, even when I've been on rough ground in the country, have never had a problem. Boots have lasted for years.
These are VERY shoddy.
When I contacted A&H Footwear, the supplier, its staff were dismissive, unhelpful and took no responsibility for the very poor quality of the boots and their falling apart after two months over the one year that qualifies Amazon's customers for refunds or replacements. So no boots and no refund, and advice to other customers to be very wary of A&H Footwear.
I always buy Dunlop wellies as I find these are the best quality & last the longest! the fashion wellies always crack and let water in within a couple of weeks, but not these! Very hard-wearing & comfortable. I will be wearing these to the Festivals this summer & I'm sure they won't let me down :)
4.0 out of 5 starsComfortable and waterproof- job done!
I've only worn these once so I can't comment on whether they're long lasting but they are very comfortable and water proof. the fit is good, and they're fitted around the calf. They feel quite heavy so I hope they are hard wearing.
3.0 out of 5 starsA nice boot made for those with twig legs.
A well made boot but very narrow at the top so would suit skinnies. A very reasonable price for an attractive boot.
Lovely quality very comfy
Great boots Keeps my feet dry.

Return of the Golden Chariots, and Other Gospel Groups - The New York Times
N.Y. / Region|Return of the Golden Chariots, and Other Gospel Groups
By JANELLE NANOS AUG. 7, 2006
Gospel music has returned to Marcus Garvey Park.
Groups including the Golden Chariots and the Fantastic Soulernaires could again be heard in the heart of Harlem yesterday, reviving a celebrated event that had been missing from the neighborhood in the past few years.
From 1985 to 2002, the annual Gospel in Harlem USA festival, as it was then known, was synonymous with the first Sunday in August. Each year the event, whose hosts were two prominent local gospel disc jockeys, drew hundreds to the park for a spirited mix of gospel quartet, choir and solo performances. But when both hosts left their radio stations to pursue other ventures, the festival no longer was held.
“One year we were looking for it and it wasn’t there,” said Roxie Shamburger, president of the American Gospel Quartet Convention. “It was just something that I loved and looked forward to. People really missed it when it went away. I got so many calls asking, ‘When is the gospel coming back?’ ”
Not only did Ms. Shamburger, 69, organize the return of the festival yesterday under the name Gospel in the Park, but she also performed in it with her quartet, the Rising Star Singers.
A crowd of about 300 hand-clapping fans of gospel music came to the park to hear the performances of the two dozen groups, many of which had performed at the event in years past.
“I used to participate in this,” said Frank Williams, 64, who said he had been an original member of the group the Mellotones, but who stayed in the audience yesterday.
“You would have goose bumps,” he said. “It was really exciting.”
Another spectator, Harvey Hills, 74, said he had for a time been the chauffeur for the Davis Sisters, a popular gospel quartet in the 1950’s. “All the great gospel singers came through the Apollo Theater and ended up here,” he said.
The original incarnation of the festival was organized by Bishop Sam Williams, 57, the former host of the “Joy in the Morning” program on WBLS, and Shumpert Watts, 70, a church elder widely known as Deacon Watts, who introduced gospel to WHCR and was host of “The Road to Glory” program for 21 years.
Bishop Williams, who was a member of the Marcus Garvey Park Association, remembers the Harlem festival as an opportunity both to celebrate the gospel outdoors and to return the soul to a part of the neighborhood. Drug activity was rampant in the park during the 1980’s, and its facilities had been gutted by robbery and neglect.
But staging the original festival was not a simple endeavor, according to Mr. Watts. In those days, the bleachers were broken and the lights in the back of the park’s amphitheater were not working, he recalled from his home in Louin, Miss., where he moved in 2002. “We had the police come in and the Parks Department work with them, and they started fixing up the place.”
For 40 years, Mr. Watts promoted gospel acts in the New York area, like the Mellotones and Soul Converters, and the festival retains a special meaning for him. “We took care of the artists and made people happy. I enjoyed every bit of it,” he said.
A thousand people arrived for the inaugural festival in 1985, but thanks to word of mouth, the numbers swelled to five times that in the following years.
“The first year that we did the event was a catalyst moment,” Bishop Williams said. “It helped the community to come alive and realize the importance of the venue. We made the park a place to come to.”
The festival also became a major campaign stop for the city’s prospective political candidates, Bishop Williams said, who recalled that David N. Dinkins attended in the summer of 1989, in the midst of his successful mayoral race.
“The people went crazy,” Bishop Williams said. “It was like bedlam.”
Moreover, the event was — and many like Ms. Shamburger hope will be again — a chance to showcase local gospel talent and introduce the gospel message to the public.
“Some people won’t go to hear a preacher preach but they’ll come to hear the music,” Ms. Shamburger said. “We wanted to bring it out to the people that we feel really need it, and give something back to the community. Sometimes it’s not as spiritual in the street as in the church, but as I always say, it’s not all about the singing, it’s about saving souls.”
