Bill Ackman has put his stake in JC Penney up for sale as the hedge fund manager prepares to end three years as the biggest shareholder in the department storewhere he has lost at least 40 per cent of his original investment.Mr Ackman's Pershing Square hedge fund will sell its 17.7 per cent stake via Citigroup, which will act as bookrunner, as the mid-market retailer struggles to recover from the impact of a chief executive Mr Ackman installed.In a letter to investors in his fund this month, Mr Ackman said that as of August 16 JC Penney "stock trades at a more than 40 per cent discount to our average cost" of investment.Given that Mr Ackman holds 39m shares and the stock closed at $13.40 on August 16, that suggests he is carrying a paper loss of at least $349m. It is not known at what price he will be able to offload the shares.
The hedge fund manager played a central role in hiring Ron Johnson from Apple to revive the tired chain, but Mr Johnson's strategy alienated shoppers and triggered a disastrous fall in sales. He left the job in April after 17 months.JC Penney shares closed at $13.35 on Monday, then fell 1.8 per cent to $13.11 in after-market trading after Mr Ackman's share sale was announced.In the letter to investors this month, Mr Ackman acknowledged that his JC Penney investment had been a "failure". But in recent weeks he has sought to portray the hiring of Mr Johnson as a move that all JC Penney directors wanted.Mr Ackman resigned from JC Penney's board earlier this month after an unusually public spat with fellow directors.
It was sparked by the hedge fund manager's unhappiness over the performance of Mike Ullman, who was brought back as chief executive in April to replace Mr Johnson having stepped down in 2011 to make way for him.JC Penney, which has over 1,000 stores mostly in regional malls, will not receive any proceeds from Mr Ackman's share sale, it said.As underwriter, Citi will purchase the shares from Mr Ackman and offer them for sale "from time to time?.?.?.?in one or more transactions or otherwise", according to a JC Penney regulatory filing.Last week JC Penney reported another quarterly loss and plunging sales.

Lew warns Congress to strike debt ceiling deal
Jack Lew, the US Treasury secretary, delivered his most extensive
warning yet to Congress about the dangers of brinkmanship over the US
debt ceiling, saying it would inflict broad damage to the economy in an
"unnecessary self-inflicted wound".On a visit to Mountain View,
California, in the heart of Silicon Valley, Mr Lew did not offer an
exact deadline by when US lawmakers will need to strike a deal to raise
America's borrowing limit or face default. But analysts at the
Bipartisan Policy Center, a think-tank, believe it will be somewhere
between mid-October and mid-November, depending on the government's cash
flow.
In his speech, Mr Lew harked back to the "cloud of doubt" that enveloped the US economy two years ago when Congress and the White House only reached a debt ceiling deal at the eleventh hour after weeks of protracted, tense negotiations."The drawn-out dispute over the debt ceiling caused business uncertainty to jump, consumer confidence to drop, financial markets to fall, and economic growth to falter," Mr Lew said. "We cannot afford a repeat of what happened in 2011," he added.Mr Lew has cited the risk of another brush with default in the past, but Thursday's remarks were the most pointed and lengthy on the subject since he took the helm of the Treasury in February.
His comments came with Congress still on summer recess, but facing a gruelling set of high-stakes fiscal negotiations when it returns next month.In 2011, Republicans in the House sought to link raising the debt limit with deep spending cuts that Democrats and the White House found hard to stomach. But this year, they are also trying to extract concessions on "Obamacare" – the 2010 health reform law.The attempt by some staunch conservatives to "defund" the law has been discouraged by Republican leaders but there is another idea gaining traction.A top Republican aide said the party was toying with the idea of demanding a one-year delay in the "individual mandate" that will require every American to be insured by the end of next year or face a tax penalty.

Obama urges regulators to enact Wall Street rules
Three years after President Barack Obama signed a sweeping overhaul
of lending and high-finance rules, execution of the law is behind
schedule with scores of regulations yet to be written, let alone
enforced. Meeting privately with the nation's top financial regulators
on Monday, Obama prodded them to act more swiftly.The president's
push'es as the five-year anniversary of the nation's financial
near-meltdown approaches. The law when passed in 2010 was considered a
milestone in Obama's presidency, a robust response to the crisis, which
led to a massive government bailout to stabilize the financial markets.
But the slow pace of implementation has prompted administration concern that banks could still pose potentially calamitous risks to the economy and to taxpayers. Obama hoped to convey "the sense of urgency that he feels," spokesman Josh Earnest said before the president convened the meeting with the eight independent regulators in the White House Roosevelt Room.Lehman Brothers collapsed into bankruptcy on Sept. 15, 2008, and the administration has wanted to use that dubious milestone to look back on the lessons of the crisis and progress so far to prevent a recurrence. In a statement at the conclusion of the meeting, the White House said Obama'mended the regulators for their work "but stressed the need to expeditiously finish implementing the critical remaining portions of Wall Street reform to ensure we are able to prevent the type of financial harm that led to the Great Recession from ever happening again."
Not everyone feels that way about the law, known as Dodd-Frank after its Democratic sponsors, Rep. Barney Frank and Sen. Christopher Dodd.Republican House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling, an early opponent of Dodd-Frank, dismissed Obama's meeting with the regulators, saying, "Much like Obamacare, Dodd-Frank is an i'prehensively'plex piece of legislation that is harmful to our floundering economy and in dire need of repeal."

AOL Chief Apologizes Over Firing of Worker
A recording of the firing was leaked to news outlets and caused a firestorm around Mr. Armstrong, who has been trying to turn AOL from a struggling Internet portal into a successful media company.The four-paragraph statement, sent to AOL employees at 4:30 p.m. and obtained by The New York Times, said, "I am writing you to acknowledge the mistake I made last Friday during the Patch all-hands meeting when I publicly fired Abel Lenz. It was an emotional response at the start of a difficult discussion dealing with many people's careers and livelihoods. I am the C.E.O. and leader of the organization, and I take that responsibility seriously."
The firing took place during a conference call with more than 1,000 employees of Patch, the local news service AOL runs for hundreds of towns. Mr. Armstrong had convened the meeting to emphasize the direness of Patch's circumstances and prepare the staff for coming layoffs and management changes."If you think what is going on right now is a joke, and you want to joke around about it, you should pick your stuff up and leave Patch today," Mr. Armstrong told the employees.But right after that statement he can be heard reprimanding Mr. Lenz, Patch's creative director, who was videotaping the meeting, then firing him.
"Abel, put that camera down right now! Abel, you're fired. Out!" Five seconds later, to stunned silence, he proceeded with his message.In his letter to the staff, Mr. Armstrong further explained the reason for the firing, saying confidential meetings should not be recorded and that Mr. Lenz had been warned previously not to make recordings. AOL said that Mr. Lenz would not be hired back but that Mr. Armstrong had contacted him to apologize.AOL has spent hundreds of millions on the Patch service, but has acknowledged being disappointed with its financial performance. During a call with analysts last week Mr. Armstrong said he would sell off or seek partners for as many as 400 of Patch's 900 local sites, a move that could result in hundreds of layoffs.

Tax rules could force Bezos to play active role at Wash Post
It was unclear how Bezos - the world's 19th richest person with a
fortune of $25.2 billion, according to Forbes magazine - would manage
his new businesses for tax purposes. U.S. individual tax returns are
private, meaning that he has no obligation to disclose publicly how he
might use the newspaper purchase to his tax advantage. His
2012'pensation from Amazon was $1.7 million; he owns nearly 19 percent
of Amazon.In an effort to root out tax shelters, Congress passed tax
rules that prevent an individual from claiming business tax breaks
without playing an active role in the business itself.Before the law,
"people would be passive investors in a business, the business would
throw off losses and they would use depreciation losses to offset other
i'e," said David Kautter, managing director of the Kogod Tax Center at
the Kogod School of Business at American University.
To realize the business tax benefits, Bezos may need to spend 500 hours a year in managing The Post's business, tax experts said, citing Internal Revenue Service rules. That'es to an average of 9.6 hours a week.Such rules may influence Bezos' participation at the Post. An Amazon spokesman for Bezos did not respond to requests for'ment. A Post spokeswoman declined to'ment.The law is murky in defining what qualifies as business activity for tax breaks, and subject to interpretation, but it generally includes making decisions and telling people what to do, experts said."A lot of it depends on how you count hours ... It's a fair amount of time you have to spend, it's not inconsequential," said Bill Smith, a managing director with CBIZ MHM, an accounting firm.
The paper's operations will be kept separate from Amazon'. The deal is notable also because Bezos bought The Post's assets, not shares in the Washington Post Co, which would not entitle him to business tax breaks. The Post's parent'pany will be selling some additional publishing assets, but no real estate, into a limited liability Delaware'pany set up for Bezos.Bezos faces the same tax considerations as anyone buying a business, accountants said."This is designed so that he can save on taxes," said David Lifson, an accountant with Crowe Horwath LLP, who advises wealthy clients. "It's no different than if he was buying a hotdog stand."

Sugary drinks tied to obesity among preschoolers
Although the link between sugary drinks and extra weight has been well documented among teens and adults, researchers said that up until now, the evidence was less clear for young children."Even though sugar-sweetened beverages are relatively a small percentage of the calories that children take in, that additional amount of calories did contribute to more weight gain over time," said Dr. Mark DeBoer, who led the study at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville.He and his colleagues surveyed the parents of a nationally-representative group of 9,600 children when the kids were two, four and five years old. The children were all born in 2001. Parents reported on their i'e and education, as well as how often children drank sugary beverages and watched TV.
The children and their mothers were weighed at each survey visit.The proportion of kids who had at least one soda, sports drink or sugar-sweetened juice drink each day ranged from 9 to 13 percent, depending on their age.Those children were more likely to have an overweight mother and to watch at least two hours of TV each day at age four and five.After accounting for those influences as well as families' socioeconomic status, the researchers found five-year-olds who had at least one sugary drink each day were 43 percent more likely to be obese than those who drank the beverages less frequently or not at all.Kids were considered obese if they had a body mass index - a measure of weight in relation to height - above the 95th percentile for their age and gender, as calculated by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
About 15 percent of five-year-olds in the study were obese.Four-year-old sugary beverage drinkers also tended to have a higher rate of obesity than non-drinkers - but that finding could have been due to chance, the researchers reported Monday in Pediatrics. Among two-year-olds, there was no link between sugar-sweetened beverages and obesity.In a statement sent to Reuters Health, the American Beverage Association trade group wrote, "Overweight and obesity are caused by an imbalance between calories consumed from all foods and beverages and calories burned. Therefore, it is misleading to suggest that beverage consumption is uniquely responsible for weight gain among this group of children, especially at a time in their lives when they would normally gain weight and grow."

Should Hindu Nationalist Narendra Modi Be Allowed a U.S. Visa?
The big debate right now in America is whether to hand more visas to Indian techies who want to study or live in the United States. But the issue that dominated the news cycle in India last week concerned the visa of one man: Narendra Modi, the chief minister of the state of Gujarat,Here is a quick tour of the assembly aerial working platform stations at the Queen's Machine factory. who wants to do neither.Sixty-five members of the Indian Parliament—some of whom have since backtracked —released a letter they wrote to President Barack Obama urging him to maintain America's eight-year-old visa ban on Modi. The U.The sinfully excellent Motor Grader of Huntress were the first act on the Jagermeister stage and had one of the most stunning sets both visually and sonically.S., along with England and other Western countries, imposed the ban after human-rights groups implicated Modi in the 2002 massacre of Muslims in his state.
The Indian Supreme Court exonerated Modi a decade later, but by then many witnesses had been tampered with or died or killed.That year, Hindu mobs—some led by figures from Modi's own party, one of whom was eventually convicted—went on a revenge spree against Muslims for burning a train with Hindu pilgrims.Although there was a lot of student drag bit, McInturff quickly found out creating a debate team from scratch was no easy task. They razed Muslim homes, raped Muslim women, and killed Muslim men.However, when asked by Reuters a few weeks ago if he felt any remorse over the grisly events that unfolded on his watch, his response was: If your driver runs over a "kutte ka baccha"—a crude term for a puppy—you would obviously feel regret; it was a statement that simultaneously dodged responsibility and dehumanized Muslims.
But none of this has fazed Modi's solid fan base in the majority Hindu population that has made him the opposition BJP's Bharatiya Janata Party standard-bearer in next year's elections for prime minister.Part of Modi's attraction is that, in sharp contrast to the i'petence,Instead, you can employ a Skid steer loader that uses the Remote Desktop Connection tool to connect to a networked virtual machine running in Client Hyper-V. corruption, and intellectual bankruptcy of the ruling Congress Party, he is a man of vision—an able administrator who has done wonders for his state's economy.

Kitchenware retailer found to be sham contracting
After they ceased work for Metro, the sales representatives each lodged a'plainant with the Fair Work Ombudsman claiming they had not been paid as they should have been.The three issues for the Court to determine were whether:the sales representatives were employees or independent contractors;Metro misrepresented the sales representatives' employment as an independent contracting arrangement under the FW Act; and the sales representatives had an entitlement to payments in accordance with the FW Act.In reviewing recent case law relating to determining a worker's employment status,2 Judge Barnes noted the principles set out by the Full Court of the Federal Court in ACE Insurance3 that there is no one single criterion that will necessarily determine the relationship, and that it is necessary to examine the various facets and circumstances of the relationship as a whole to discern its true character.
In determining the relationship between Metro and the sales representatives, Judge Barnes examined a number of criteria, including:the content of Metro's training, where the participants had to attend,As our Hillary Watch 2016 series marches on, Hillary 2016 pop-up ads from what I am calling the Road Roller are bombarding my computer screen. pass a test, and obtain a sales kit;Metro's training manual,Most of all, most of her students —diamond core bit for Zapatier — had no experience.Enter the Rebel Debate Institute.For the past two weeks. which had a very strict 16 step presentation format and selling technique;the contractual documents,Ads like this one below or others shouting: "Show Your Support. Take the Ready for Hillary pledge."rough terrain crane can only imagine what that pledge entails. particularly the Independent Agent Agreement;the requirement of on-going training and contact with the Metro office;delegation and control; and whether the sales representatives served Metro's business or their own business.
Judge Barnes was satisfied that the sales representatives were under the control of Metro in significant respects,A few friends who also participated in the display at the picnic were among the early and China visa houston supporters of the now annual event on the farm. both directly in the manner in which they were directed, and supervised, in the performance of their tasks,On the lower end of the scale you could find yourself getting questions scissors supplier posts that the previous owner made. as well as indirectly through the use of suggested Metro scripts and instructions as to what they 'should' do.In considering the totality of the relationship, Judge Barnes found that, although some factors tended to indicate against an employment relationship, she was satisfied that the proper characterisation of the arrangements was that Metro was the employer of the four sales representatives.Judge Barnes also found that by providing the sales representatives with the Independent Agent Agreement, Metro had contravened the FW Act by misrepresenting employment as an independent contracting arrangement.
