A 100 years in history maybe as a drop of water into the Ocean, but in the Indian film industry it's been a timeframe, whereas the years meant brought great development in each decade. To highlight the 100 years history of the Indian film, where else would it be appropriate to arrange the film week, than at one of the most spectacular venue, the almost 100 years old Pushkin Cinema, that retained architecturally its original beauty. After the opening ceremony on the Friday, February, 7. 2014, at 6.45 p.m. the screening of Mirch Masala (1986), Directed by Ketan Mehta took place.

Switch to Just Energy and select an electric rate that is great for your home or business.
Have your utility account number available.
Pick a plan that's right for you! With Just Energy, you've got options. Our flexible plans will help you find the best rates for your lifestyle.
Tired of watching Saskatchewan electricity rates fluctuate on your energy bill? If you are not currently enrolled in a secured-price supply program, you may be missing out on some long overdue peace of mind. Just Energy offers long-term secured-rate plans that can help shield Saskatchewan electricity customers like you from the ups and downs of the electricity market—for short- or long-term! And best of all, your service will not be interrupted. You will continue to enjoy your electricity the way you always have, while Just Energy provides you with a secure rate and top-tier customer service.
Just Energy's fixed-rate electric and natural gas plans make it easy to take control of your energy prices and better manage your monthly budget.
What's a fixed-rate plan? Fixed rate means exactly that—your electric rate is fixed at a set price. You pay the same rate for your electricity every month for the duration of your contract. We have a variety of fixed-rate electric plans to choose from depending on the commitment you want to make.
Looking for Natural Gas Plans?
Just Energy isn't just an electricity provider. We offer competitive rates on natural gas, too. Our wide variety of plan options allow you to save money by bundling your electricity and natural gas.
You don't have to worry about a thing when you make the switch to Just Energy. We'll handle everything, and there will be no disruption to your current energy service. You can cancel at any time by contacting us directly.
Call today to get started or enter your postal code below to learn about our Saskatchewan electricity plans.
When you move homes in Saskatchewan, there are a few small steps you have to take to make sure your electricity service moves with you.
If you plan to continue with Just Energy, simply contact us ahead of the move and let our customer care team know the details of your new address. They will be able to take care of the rest for you.
If you're switching addresses and electricity providers, remember to cancel your current electricity plan before you leave. In advance of your moving date, contact your new provider, and make sure they have all necessary details to get your account set up. Keep in mind that utility companies usually charge a setup fee for new electricity accounts and may also require a security deposit.
Does Your Saskatchewan Energy Provider Require a Security Deposit?
For new accounts, electricity distributors in Saskatchewan have the option to require a security deposit. That said, some Just Energy customers may not need to submit a deposit if they meet certain criteria. Speak with an energy advisor to find out if your eligible for a waived energy deposit.
Is your plan up for renewal? We may have new plans available in your area that better suit your budget. Enter your zip code in the search field above to see your options.
Electricity rates and natural gas rates can be unpredictable, making it hard to budget and plan your finances. The good news is that Saskatchewan consumers have the power to choose their residential energy provider and take control of their energy rates.
Not that long ago, all utilities were operated as monopolies. One provider covered an entire region, and their customers have no other options if they needed energy. Fortunately, the Saskatchewan energy market has been deregulated.
Giving you more choice, the deregulation of Saskatchewan electricity splits your electric service into two distinct parts—supply and delivery. This allows you to shop around for a new electricity supplier while keeping the same utility company for delivery and maintenance, ultimately empowering you to find better rates and plans that suit your lifestyle.
What are the benefits? Deregulation means you can find a local electricity provider with products that better serve you—and you can switch from one provider to another without interruption or complications to your service. Switch providers today without worrying about losing power!
If you're currently experiencing a power outage, gas leak, or a power-related emergency, you can report it directly with Just Energy.
Talk to one of our friendly energy experts today to get the right plan for you.

Most freelance copywriters concentrate on consumer products and services, so there are big opportunities in the business-to-business market. The pay is great, and the work is steady.
We recently sat down with B2B copywriting veteran Steve Slaunwhite to get his take on this increasingly popular (and lucrative) niche. Steve had so much information to share that we decided to turn the interview into a two-parter.
The first part of this interview appeared in Issue #273 of AWAI's popular weekly e-zine The Golden Thread.
CI: How do B2B companies find you?
SS: A lot of people find out about me through referrals – which is why being visible and known in the marketplace is so important. Marketing managers talk to other marketing managers, perhaps at meetings. And they ask around.
CI: You're well-known and recognized as a specialist. But how does someone just starting out become well-known as a B2B copywriter?
SS: Well, first of all, understand that I'm not well-known in every B2B sector. But, based on my experience, I think the best way for a copywriter to become well-known to his target audience is through writing, because that's what we do best.
Writing articles for e-zines and newsletters and other publications is the first thing that comes to mind. But there are other ways to leverage your expertise as a writer. You can write articles – and even if you don't get them published, you can post them on your website or print them off and use them in self-promotional mailings. You can even write letters to the editors at trade publications that may publish them.
CI: What trade publications would you recommend in the field of B2B marketing?
SS: There are several. There's Business Marketing, Marketing Sherpa, Marketing Profs, and B2B (www.btobonline.com). There's also the Business Marketing Association, which has a newsletter.
There are a lot of niche publications as well. Software CEO, for example, is mainly a business marketing publication for people who work in the software industry.
CI: Are search engines are a primary way for potential clients to find B2B copywriters?
SS: Well, I have to be careful here, because that's not the main way people find me. However, two B2B copywriters who are friends of mine – one who specializes in direct mail, the other who specializes in high-tech industrial companies – use search engine optimization and getting a high listing on a search engine as part of their strategy. They swear by it … and they've been very successful.
CI: Do you think copywriters need to have a big presence on the search engines?
SS: No. Nor would I recommend using that as a primary marketing strategy, because it's so difficult. And it's hit and miss. Plus, there are a lot of other strategies, at least when you're starting out, that work a lot better and a lot faster. If you're marketing your services as a B2B copywriter, consider search engine optimization to augment your efforts, but don't use it as your primary strategy.
CI: There seems to be a wide range of B2B clients a freelance copywriter can choose from. On one end are the Fortune 500 clients – prestigious and with plenty of money. Then there are the small local businesses … and the slightly larger companies that do maybe a few million a year … and the in-between mid-market firms.
SS: I like good clients. And I don't really care where they come from – as long as they are great to work for, pay a professional rate, and have interesting projects.
Mid-market and Fortune 500 firms can be great clients, because they have a lot of work. Because of their size, repeat business can continue for years. A big client has a huge marketing department and the budget to pay professional rates. You still may get some price resistance and have to negotiate a little, but, in general, their pay rates are at the professional level.
Small businesses tend to be a mixed bag. Sometimes you can find a great client in the small-business sector (in fact, I'm working with one right now), but in a lot of cases small businesses either don't know what a copywriter is or they don't understand the value of a copywriter or what a copywriter actually does and can bring to the table. And they often can't pay (or balk at paying) professional rates.
CI: What about ad agencies?
SS: I prefer to work directly with clients. However, I do work with a few agencies and I'm very happy doing so.
It's quite a bit different to work with an agency instead of directly with a client … for a number of reasons. First of all, they're a middleman – so you're dealing with the agency but they're putting your stuff together and presenting it to the client. And the rates you can charge for a project with an agency tend to be lower, sometimes by 20% to 25%, because they have to mark up your fee on their invoice to their client. Plus, agencies tend to work at a frenetic pace. Rush jobs and tight, tight deadlines are the norm. It's always rush, rush, rush at an ad agency … and you can feel burnt out pretty quickly.
CI: Is there an upside to working with agencies?
SS: They can offer you a wide variety of work, and the people who work at ad agencies and design firms are professional communicators. So if you're a beginner, you can learn a lot from these folks. You can be exposed to art direction and production and dealing with clients and things of that nature. You can soak up a lot of information and education, and you can get the chance to work with some big-name clients. When you're starting out as a copywriter, it might be difficult for you to get hired by IBM – but you could get hired by a design firm that has IBM as a client. So you might get a chance to write copy for a brochure for one of IBM's projects, and that goes in your portfolio.
CI: Who would be the potential client at an agency?
SS: Well there are three general job titles. The obvious one is the Creative Director, the person who is in charge of the writing, the design, the art direction, and the ultimate production of a piece. They often manage designers and art directors and freelance writers. Another important contact that I think a lot of copywriters miss is the Account Manager. They're in charge of keeping the clients happy. They communicate and deal with the agency's clients on a day-to-day basis, so they're often looking for writers who match up closely with the needs of those clients.
Very large ad agencies (and direct-marketing firms) sometimes have what's called a Copy Chief or Copywriting Director. Sometimes they manage a group of copywriters who work as employees of the agency, but sometimes they're the one and only copywriter on staff (which makes it kind of a bloated title). In either case, they're involved in hiring freelance writers.
CI: And who would be the potential client in a corporation?
SS: Sometimes a corporation has a Creative Director, but that's pretty rare. Mostly it's someone who has the word "marketing" in their job title – Marketing Manager, Marketing Director, Marketing Communications Manager. They also may have "public relations" in their title – Public Relations Manager, Public Relations Director, etc.
CI: Is it the same for a small business?
SS: Small businesses often don't have a marketing department, so the owner is also in charge of the marketing. Companies that are slightly bigger might have a Sales (or Marketing) Director. Those are the people you'd want to contact for freelance projects.
CI: Do you use business directories to find clients?
SS: Yes. Every industry has a directory, and there are also directories of marketing people. Sometimes these directories are published in an industry trade journal as part of a special issue, sometimes as a separate book by an industry association.
CI: How do you price your B2B copywriting?
SS: In my experience working with B2B marketing people, they prefer to have a fixed, firm price for a project. In other words, they don't want to be quoted an hourly rate. They want to know exactly how much the copywriting is going to cost so they can plug that number into their budget.
As a copywriter, that means you need to do your work up front to make sure you understand the full scope of the project – exactly what's involved and what you'll be doing – so you can quote an accurate price.
CI: Are you ever asked to write at an hourly rate?
CI: Let's do a couple of examples. How would you price an email that's only two or three paragraphs long?
SS: A lot more than you might think – between $750 and $1,500. And that's because, even though it's short, it's a lot of work … and it has a lot of value to the client if it's done well.
You have to really think about it. And you have to structure it in just the right way and make every word count. You also have to spend a lot of time on the subject line, because that's all-important in an email piece. People use subject lines to decide whether they're going to open an email – and if the email doesn't get opened, it doesn't get read … and they don't reply to the offer.
Let's say a company is investing in a webcast that they want their customers to attend, and they hire you to write an email to get people to sign up for it. If your email is a dud and doesn't work, their investment of time and money in preparing for the webcast fails. Everybody looks bad. Including you.
CI: How would you price a Google ad?
SS: Well, Google ads are more complex than they look. As recently as a couple of years ago, if someone asked me to write a Google ad, I'd write two or three versions and that would be it. Now I insist on packaging it, too, because there is more involved than just writing the ad. Picking the right key words and determining when the ad will be displayed is also very important.
CI: What do you charge for a white paper?
SS: A lot of thinking and planning can go into a white paper – so, again, it's important to understand the scope of the project and exactly what's involved before you quote a price.
Sometimes you'll be asked to write a white paper, and they'll have the whole thing planned out for you. It will be roughly outlined, with the content pretty much in place, and all they really want is for you to do a good job writing it. Other times, none of the pre-work will be done. They'll expect you to interview the engineer and perhaps even define the topic a bit more and do a lot of upfront work before you even start writing … and you have to factor all that into your price.
In general, white papers pay anywhere from $2,000 up to $5,000 and more, depending on what's involved. I find $3,500 to $4,000 to be average, but because white papers vary so much in size and scope, it's hard to nail down a number.
CI: Do B2B projects ever pay a mailing fee or a bonus or royalty, like consumer direct marketing?
SS: I've been paid something along those lines a few times – and I mean a very few times. It's not the norm at all. In most cases, B2B companies are not set up to pay royalties or bonuses of any kind. It's almost always a fixed flat rate.
CI: Is there a technique you use to increase the number of projects you get from B2B companies that come to you for one specific thing?
SS: There's a technique I use all the time. And though I haven't actually measured it, I would estimate it's increased the amount of work I've gotten (and my income) by maybe 30% or 40%.
So I got the job to write not only the case study, but also the email, the banner ad, and the webcast script … almost tripling my fee for the original project they hired me for.

Here's Why You Need To Put Eurovision On Your Bucket List
By Julia D'Orazio 8 May 2019
While there are some who make the great pilgrimage, jumping continents to attend music festival institutions such as Tomorrowland, Coachella and Lollapalooza, I make my way to dance up a storm at the world's biggest song contest, Eurovision.
Yes, I can admit, I am unashamedly a tragic for the Eurovision Song Contest. And with Eurovision 2019 quickly approaching, with semi-final competitions leading up to the final event on 18 May, you may soon be a die-hard fan yourself.

I caught Eurovision fever in my younger years, and it quickly became a bucket list goal of mine to see the ultimate kitsch event in person. You bet I'd be wearing all that shimmers and sparkles.
Features 5 Things We Learnt Behind The Scenes At Eurovision
Everyone should see Eurovision at least once
A post shared by Eurovision Song Contest (@eurovision) on Apr 21, 2019 at 3:28am PDT
It's just unlike like any other event on this planet. While some may be gung-ho about sports, Eurovision is my kind of Olympics where I like to see sweat, tears and high octave eights play out. The competition pits nations against one another by showcasing vocal gymnastics, marathon sprints across the stage, colourful (and questionable) costume attire, synchronised dance routines and sometimes fireworks all for glory for their country.
Adventure Live It Up In The Cheapest European...
Culture Bosnia And Herzegovina Is The Underrated European...
Adventure You've Done The West, Now Head To...
The first experience I had up close and personal with the event was back in 2015 in Tallinn, Estonia. I attended Eesti Laul, the Estonian national selection final for the artist to compete in the forthcoming Eurovision Song Contest.
Most nations select their entrant this way with a similar event, and Australia followed suit this year with Australia Decides event on the Gold Coast (cue my feelings of joy). Attending one of these events is an inexpensive way to get in on the action if you're keen to have some Eurovision in your life.
It brings people together
Fans support their favourites at a previous Eurovision Song Contest event. Image: Julia D'Orazio
Despite barely knowing even five Estonian words to string together, I was so enthralled by it all. I couldn't contain my excitement at the national selection – I was one step closer to my dream!
Two years later, after having my Eurovision taster, I made my way to Kiev on a circuitous route of flights, overnight buses and trains via Poland to reach my dream. The things you would do to see an Italian dancing gorilla on stage, right?
The actual main song contest morphs the host city into a living and breathing musical for a week. Each host city stages a Eurovillage, a place where locals and visitors can get together and hit up the pop up bars – impromptu Eurovision karaoke sessions are common practice. Centrally located, these villages also feature live music and activities to be quickly sucked into. (Hello dress ups and photoshoots!)
It's just joyful
A post shared by Eurovision Song Contest (@eurovision) on Feb 9, 2019 at 4:02am PST
I would find it hard pressed to find anywhere else in the world that would be just as jovial and colourful than the people attending the Eurovision semi-finals and grand final. People go to extreme lengths to look like their favourite Eurovision stars. Luckily, eBay exists for a reason, and I managed to score a second rate ABBA costume and a silver wig. (Eurovision on a budget – it's possible.)
Scoring tickets to the live event can be a bit of a feat, so my best advice is to get in early. Over the years I have managed to attend three semi-finals and a grand final (money well spent IMO). Even if you don't make it to the live events, there are the rehearsal and jury shows that you can attend at a fraction of the cost for the same show and enjoy the buzzing atmosphere.
It's about more than the one concert
A post shared by Eurovision Song Contest (@eurovision) on Oct 16, 2018 at 8:48am PDT
Eurovision isn't solely about the songs themselves – it comes down to the props and outfits the entrant uses and wears. It doesn't just let people think outside the box, it kicks that box into the glitter-confetti-filled stratosphere with some downright bizarre performances including human-sized hamster wheels, an Irish turkey that looked as though it was plucked out of Sesame Street, burning coffin-like pianos, bread ovens, you name it.
This year's Met Gala theme was "Camp" – well, you could argue that nothing does camp better than Eurovision, with its fashion-forward ways. After all, the event has previously introduced us to metallic flares (Sweden's ABBA), a sequinned Dracula (Romania's Cezar), futuristic Tin Man (Ukraine's Verka Serduchka) and even a dress that could double up as a cinema screen (Estonia's Elina Nechayeva).
Following on from going to an official event, whether it be the semi- or grand final, there's always an afterparty in the host city. EuroClub is where you get to mingle with current and past Eurovision stars and diehard fans to dance the newly minted remixes of your new favourite event songs. The night gets sweaty, people are losing it and its an ultimate heaven for all those who love Europop. I even met the Danish Rasmussen's fellow Vikings in Lisbon one night last year.

Speaker/Author
Daniel had the most incredible career imaginable; he was transported as a teenage captive to a pagan empire and became the primary confidante to the ruler of Babylon. When Babylonia was taken over by its enemies, he rose to the second or third position in the Persian Empire. There are only two people in the Bible other than Jesus Christ of which no evil is spoken, Joseph and Daniel.
The book of Daniel is in two halves: the first six chapters are historical, which deal with the adventures and career of this remarkable man. The second six chapters are some of the most pivotal and important prophecies of the entire Bible. Without a clear understanding of the book of Daniel you will not understand the times in which we live.
This study contains 16 hours of verse by verse teachings.

Millions of Canadians enjoy representation without taxation
In the United States, today (Dec. 16) is the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, when in 1773 the "Sons of Liberty" protested against taxation without representation. Nearly 250 years later, a new phenomenon has emerged in Canada—representation without taxation.
In recent years, Canadian governments have dramatically increased spending and sought a larger role in the economy. Such an expansion of government can lead to negative consequences including higher taxes to pay for today's spending. Yet these consequences are not felt evenly by all Canadians. Indeed, a large share of the electorate doesn't in any meaningful way bear the burden of their decisions for larger government because they pay limited or no taxes.
First, consider the growing size of government in Canada. Measured by government spending as a share of the economy, the Canadian government (including federal, provincial and local levels) grew from 37.4 per cent of the economy in 2007 to 40.3 per cent of the economy by 2018. (Notably, estimates suggest economic growth is maximized when spending is closer to 26 per cent of the economy.) That figure has undoubtedly increased since, particularly given the impacts of the pandemic. The federal government is on track to record the five highest levels of per-person spending (adjusted for inflation) in Canada's history in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022.
Again, the burden of Canada's larger government is not evenly felt by Canadians. The bottom 20 per cent of income-earning Canadian families are estimated to pay only 2.3 per cent of total federal, provincial and local taxes in 2021. In contrast, the top 20 per cent of income-earning families pay more than half (54.7 per cent) of total taxes. This is, in part, due to the progressivity of Canada's personal income tax system, where the share of taxes paid typically increases as income rises.
Further, data from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) demonstrate that an increasing proportion of lower-income Canadians don't pay any personal income taxes at all. In 2007, roughly 60.0 per cent of Canadians earning less than $30,000 had no personal income tax liability. That percentage increased significantly over the subsequent decade. By 2017, more than two-thirds (68.6 per cent) of individuals with income below $30,000 didn't pay any personal income taxes—that's more than 8.8 million Canadians. Many low-income Canadians do not pay any personal income taxes because their tax credits and deductions are greater than the amount of taxes owed.
Centuries ago, the Boston Tea Party led to the end of taxation without representation in some parts of the continent. Today, a more suiting slogan would be representation without taxation. This is not to say that lower-income Canadians should pay more in taxes, but it should raise concerns about the current state of decision-making in government.

Real estate's rising stars
The 35-and-under crowd that's making a splash on the residential, commercial, new development and start-up fronts
March 2014 Issue /
Mar.March 01, 2014 07:00 AM
By Hiten Samtani
From left: Melissa DiBella, Nick Romito, Drew Popkin and Jason Meister
It takes time to earn your chops in New York real estate. The learning curve is steep, and the market demands both skills and connections. Most of the industry's household names, on both the residential and commercial side — with the exception of real estate scions like Jared Kushner, Justin Elghanayan and a handful of others — are at least well into their 40s. But there are always ambitious young guns rising to the top of the industry.
This month, The Real Deal talked to dozens of sources to get a sense of who in the 35-and-under crowd is making waves in the industry. In 2011, we featured the young "Moguls in the Making," such as Douglas Elliman's Oren Alexander and Benchmark Real Estate Group's Jordan Vogel and Aaron Feldman in a similar feature. But now there's a new batch of players to choose from, so we once again sorted through the prospects and came up with a fresh crop of hotshots.
Read on to find out who they are, and what makes them stand out.
Drew Popkin, 28, the Naftali Group
Drew Popkin
After graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2008, Drew Popkin wrote to Miki Naftali, then the CEO of Elad Properties, a subsidiary of the Israeli giant Elad Group, and asked for a job.
Popkin said he was drawn to Elad because he wanted to work with Naftali, considered by many to be one of the savviest deal-makers in the market.
"Miki is very much a 'you eat what you kill' kind of guy," Popkin said of his mentor. "Being able to have him mold and shape me is tremendous."
But it took persistence to land the gig. He was turned away more than once. "He was a pain in the back," Naftali joked. "He kept coming and kept coming, and eventually we had to hire him."
Three months after he wrote to Naftali, Popkin began working at Elad full-time, while taking graduate classes in real estate finance at night at New York University. Because he arrived at Elad as an acquisitions and development associate as the recession began, Popkin got to work on complex restructuring deals.
"It was a tremendous asset to me to come out in that time period — you don't see the world in a rosy picture," he said.
When Naftali left Elad to form his eponymous development firm in 2011, Popkin moved over with him. Now he is a top executive at the Naftali Group, overseeing acquisitions and development and reporting directly to chief investment officer Victor Sigoura. At 28, he's one of the youngest people in the industry in his position, sources say. And he's overseen about $500 million worth of real estate acquisitions, and nearly $1 billion in debt and equity transactions since starting out in 2008.
"He just spent a couple of years learning everything," Naftali said, adding that it was very rare for anyone to rack up such numbers at such a young age. "He was willing to do everything and anything just to be successful."
Those deals include the $55.5 million purchase of 206-210 West 77th Street on the Upper West Side, where the Naftali Group is planning an 18-story condo, and the purchase of a $57 million assemblage on West 25th Street, where the firm is building a 12-story condo. Popkin also helped orchestrate the purchase of 33 Beekman Street, where the Naftali Group is building a 34-story dorm for Pace University in partnership with the Harel Group and SL Green Realty.
Joseph Koicim, a broker at Marcus & Millichap who represented the sellers on the assemblage deal, said that Popkin's "intensity level is unmatched."
"It was a complicated deal that also included air rights transactions," Koicim said. "But Drew is very specific in terms of what he needs."
Popkin started his career at age 18, when he received his real estate license and joined Citi Habitats as a rental agent. And when he's not at work, he's working on building a networking group called EmPiRE for young industry professionals that he co-founded with Taconic Investment Partners' 26-year-old Spencer Pariser.
Naftali said that while he makes the final call on an acquisition, he defers to Popkin on a lot of key decisions.
"Anything from market research, to bringing the deals, to underwriting a deal, I give him the floor."
Popkin's thick skin and determination, Naftali said, continue to impress him.
"There were many times I threw him out of my office, telling him, 'Raise your eyes from the Excel sheet. Feel the deal, understand the neighborhood.' What's really great about Drew is that he went back, he took the feedback and tried to do better," Naftali added.
Nick Romito, 31, View the Space

Hanging on the wall in the entrance of View the Space's office on West 30th Street is a signed picture of surfing legend Kelly Slater. A few feet away is another, of supermodel Cindy Crawford. The office is mostly filled with baseball-cap-clad young men, many of them avid surfers, including Nick Romito, who regularly chases waves on the Jersey Shore. But that casual vibe belies the fact that the cloud-based leasing portfolio management company that Romito launched in 2011 is one of the hottest start-ups in the New York commercial real estate world today.
Romito started his career as a broker at Murray Hill Properties, representing both tenants and landlords. In 2009, he co-founded commercial real estate firm Titan Global Advisors with AM-Property. While there, Romito felt there was a way to bring the world of big data to the leasing business. With a team of coding geeks, Romito built View the Space, which creates online video tours of office spaces and provides landlords, brokers and property managers with data-tracking services, including how often a space is visited online and even which configurations of the space get the most visits from potential clients. Those numbers help landlords and brokers reconfigure their spaces to meet tenant demand, track leasing activity across their portfolios in real-time and develop relationships with viewers who've already expressed interest in the space. Romito said the firm will also be rolling out its mobile platform later this month.
Romito now has 27 employees, and View the Space has more than 1,500 office buildings in 14 major markets on its platform, with a large chunk of them in New York. Clients in New York City include SL Green, which was its first major commercial client, as well as Blackstone Group's Equity Office portfolio, asset manager TIAA-CREF and Boston Properties. View the Space also handles trophy towers such as RFR Realty's Seagram Building and the Empire State Building.
"It's one thing when you're getting sold products from people who are more IT-focused," said Kevin Smith, the head of asset management for TIAA-CREF's North Region. "There's skepticism that they may not truly understand your business." Romito's background as a broker, Smith said, "lends a lot more credibility to the conversations."
Smith, who oversees a total of about 20 million square feet nationwide, is considering implementing View the Space across his portfolio. TIAA-CREF already has five Manhattan buildings on the system, including 685 Third Avenue and 475 Fifth Avenue. Smith said it lets him track leasing trends across the buildings, even if they are being managed by multiple brokerages.
"I can pull all the information into one place and get a sense of what's happening," Smith said. "Nick really gets what's on a landlord's mind."
Romito has raised about $7.2 million for the company from big players in the real estate technology space, including Greg Waldorf, who is on the board of directors at Trulia, and Thomas Byrne, the former president of commercial real estate marketplace LoopNet. Projected revenue for 2014 is in the mid-to-upper single millions, Romito said.
The company is upgrading from its 2,000-square-foot space at 360 Seventh Avenue to a 7,400-square-foot-space at 142 West 36th Street.
Jason Meister, 31, Avison Young
Jason Meister (Screenshot via Fox Business)
When real estate bigwigs Joseph Sitt and Rubin Schron made separate $2 billion plays for the Empire State Building last year, they didn't turn to industry veterans with decades of experience. Instead they were represented by 31-year-old Jason Meister, a broker and vice president in Avison Young's Capital Markets Group.
Meister, the son of high-profile real estate attorney Stephen Meister, grew up in Midtown and moved to Nantucket, Mass., after college to get his feet wet in real estate. In Nantucket, he formed his own venture to build modular construction spec homes, and also worked as a residential broker, selling homes to heavy hitters such as Lee Iacocca, the former CEO of Chrysler.
He returned to New York in 2008 to join now-defunct commercial firm Grubb & Ellis. There, at age 28, he was part of the six-person team that brokered the high-profile sale of the St. Vincent's Hospital building at 555 Sixth Avenue to Ofer Yarden's Stonehenge Partners for $67 million.
In 2011, Meister's team at Grubb represented World-Wide Holdings in the sale of Tribeca's 93 Worth Street, a commercial property that Izaki Group Investments bought for just shy of $50 million and converted into a 92-unit condominium. The team also sold a 127-unit residential building in the Bronx's Riverdale neighborhood for L&M Development Partners to Columbia University for $69 million.
In total, Meister said he's sold north of $500 million worth of property during his career. But he may eventually make his way back into residential development, he said, noting that he sometimes misses the thrill of completing a construction project.
"When the house is [completed] and you're sitting on the roof deck and looking out at the water, that to me is really exciting," he said.
Meister is adept at staying in the limelight; he's regularly quoted in the press and makes frequent appearances on Fox Business to discuss topics such as the housing market and foreign buyers.
He declined to comment on the Empire State Building bids, citing ongoing litigation.
Jarrod Guy Randolph, 30, Core
Jarrod Randolph
The term "square footage" has been part of Jarrod Guy Randolph's lingo since he was 16, when he took an internship at a residential real estate brokerage in his Pennsylvania hometown. After earning his undergraduate degree in real estate finance at NYU, he put in seven years at new development firm the Sunshine Group, now Corcoran Sunshine, and then did a stint at Brown Harris Stevens before jumping to Core in 2012.
At 30 years old, he estimates that he's sold about $600 million worth of New York property in the last decade, a combination of new development units and resales. That puts him near the top of the pack in his age group, although he's still a fair distance behind heavyweights like Brown Harris Stevens' Kyle Blackmon, who was featured in 2011's "Moguls in the Making."
"This is all I know," Randolph said. "I can basically work at Starbucks, and I can work in real estate."
He recently sold two sponsor unit penthouses at Extell Development's 151 East 85th Street, for $19 million and $15.8 million. Prior to that, he helped sell out developments such as Extell's Ariel East and West, as well as Shaya Boymelgreen's River Lofts in Tribeca.
In February, he snagged his biggest-ever listing, a $25 million half-floor condo at Trump World Tower belonging to a prominent plastic surgeon. And he said he's now working on bagging a prestigious new $300 million development project Downtown, but declined to give further details.
To find buyers for those eight-digit properties, Randolph said his five-person team compiles a meticulous dossier on high-net-worth individuals, including intimate information such as where their children go to school, where they like to shop and even whether "they have a fishing license in Alaska."
"There are only 1,000 or so individuals in the world who can afford the product we're selling," he said, "and it's my job to know everything about them."
Randolph employs a full-time "cultural attaché," whose job is to court such buyers by getting them tickets to sporting events, chartering their flights and offering dozens of other services. In addition, he's working with investors who he said are each looking to pump at least $50 million into the New York residential market, and is going on a 10-day trip to Hong Kong next month to talk to three large banks that manage funds for wealthy investors there.
He was recently named to Forbes "30 under 30" in the real estate category, and is a frequent contributor to Fox Business' "Spare Change" segment, where he weighs in on current business affairs.
Melissa DiBella, 29, TerraCRG
Melissa DiBella
Brooklyn had a record $5 billion in commercial real estate sales last year, and Melissa DiBella, of commercial brokerage TerraCRG, said those numbers are only going up in 2014.
"There's such an obvious demand right now," said DiBella, who was TerraCRG CEO Ofer Cohen's first hire when he left Massey Knakal in 2008 to start the firm.
"International investors, architects and developers have reached out to us. All this interest is going to raise the dollar volume," she said.
Over the last eight years, DiBella handled the marketing and sales for about $500 million worth of properties in Brooklyn. As Brooklyn's stars have aligned, TerraCRG's own business has transformed. The firm started in 2008 doing mostly loan modifications, short sales and foreclosures, DiBella said, but is now selling a slew of development sites, and recently became active in selling retail sites.
DiBella was made a partner in the firm last year. She and Cohen jointly manage a team within the 16-employee firm that's sold about 1.2 million buildable square feet since 2008, she said. The team recently sold a 12,690-square-foot site at 470 Fourth Avenue in Park Slope for $20 million, and is now marketing a $23 million site in East Williamsburg at 100-120 Union Avenue that allows for a residential development of up to 130,000 square feet.
DiBella said more developers are now targeting neighborhoods such as Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Prospect Park South and Flatbush. Her firm, she said, tries to stay on their radar by publishing market reports that break down each Brooklyn neighborhood by asset class — data that's more standard in Manhattan but less common in the borough. "We're in tune with what's happening," she said, so "for many newcomers, their first point of entry into Brooklyn is through us."
Boaz Gilad, a co-founder of development firm Brookland Capital, which is active in Crown Heights, Bushwick and Bedford-Stuyvesant, said DiBella "thinks like a developer."
David Shorenstein, 33, and Jason Silverstein, 29, Silvershore Properties
From left: Jason Silverstein and David Shorenstein
David Shorenstein and Jason Silverstein met when they were brokers at Marcus & Millichap in the mid-2000s. Shorenstein had already brokered $250 million in sales at the firm by the time Silverstein came on board in 2006. They struck out on their own in 2008, launching the investment firm Silvershore Properties.
Silvershore has since amassed a $175 million portfolio of 40 residential and commercial buildings and is one of the most active mid-market investors in both Manhattan and Brooklyn. While they often buy, reposition and then sell properties, they hold on to those that have a significant upside, Shorenstein said. If there are existing retail leases in a building, for example, the partners "might wait them out" before selling.
Their first buy was a $90,000 retail property in Jamaica, Queens that Silverstein described as "the smallest building in New York." They sold that building for $200,000 during the same year they launched.
Starting out, Manhattan deals were beyond their reach, and so the firm stuck mostly to Brooklyn, where in June 2010 it purchased a Clinton Hill building for $290,000. Silvershore was recently offered $2.3 million for the property, the partners said.
They've since upped both the volume and price of their purchases. In 2013, the company bought 20 buildings, worth about $41 million, including 63 Spring Street in Soho for $6.4 million and a 25-unit building at 219 13th Street in Park Slope for $5.25 million. Their capital comes from a small pool of investors, including high-net-worth individuals and at least one group of foreign buyers, a source familiar with their operations said.
"We have a good base of people that we work with," Silverstein said. "They get more comfortable with every deal that we do."
"We're kind of teaching ourselves as we go," Shorenstein added.
Silvershore recently put a Lower East Side rental and retail building at 101 Delancey Street on the market for $20.5 million. They paid just $7 million for the property in 2012. Besides carrying out an extensive renovation of the building, Silverstein said, "the retail play was where we saw the upside," referring to the fact that leases for the building's five ground-floor retail spaces are set to expire in the coming months.
The firm hopes to get into ground-up development as well as acquire commercial towers. "Our goal," Silverstein said, "[is] to look at the New York skyline and say, 'That's one of our buildings.'"
Jack Srour, 27, and Juda Srour, 25, Jay Suites
Jay Suites, which was founded by the Srour brothers in 2009, is one of the market leaders in the hot commercial sector of shared office space, with a 150,000-square-foot footprint in Manhattan. Current and former clients include Mayor Bill de Blasio, who rented space from the company for his campaign operations, and the New York Daily News, which set up temporary camp in a Jay Suites office while its headquarters were shuttered in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. The company is among the five biggest shared office space providers in the city, along with Regus, WeWork, Corporate Suites and Virgo Business Centers.
Jack and Juda followed their father, Faraj "Freddy" Srour, into the business. The elder Srour owns several properties in the city, including 361 Lexington Avenue and 2 West 46th Street. Juda started out as an intern at residential brokerage Metropolitan Property Group, while Jack was earning a master's degree in real estate finance at NYU. When a client asked Juda to help him find a furnished office space, he sensed an opportunity.
"I realized what a demand there was for such spaces," he said. The brothers are the youngest major players in the shared office market. (WeWork's founder Adam Neumann is in his mid-30s.)
The company has six locations in the city and is in talks to lease additional spaces of between 20,000 and 30,000 square feet in the Columbus Circle and Union Square areas, Juda told TRD. It's also considering developing a 44,000-square-foot building in Downtown Brooklyn, on Willoughby Street. Jay Suites would enter a partnership with the landlord and hold a significant equity stake in the building, Juda said.
Because Jay Suites uses Freddy's contractors to build out its office spaces, Juda said the firm can undercut its competition by up to 30 percent. And there's a simple system to how it chooses where to locate.
"We really look at where Regus is located, and we try to open the next door," Juda said, referring to the shared office titan.
Shared office space providers are among the city's fastest-growing tenants. The five largest providers have a combined footprint of over 2.8 million square feet across all major Manhattan submarkets, a TRD analysis found.
Lyon Porter, 33, and Ari LeFauve 34, Town Residential
From left: Lyon Porter and Ari LeFauve
Lyon Porter and Ari LeFauve have more than a few things in common. They both grew up in rust-belt cities on Lake Erie, wore the number 14 on their jerseys when they played college sports, and have young sons. And LeFauve's first name, Ari, means "lion" in Hebrew.
They're also successful business partners, having done about $500 million in deals since teaming up several years ago.
While they don't specialize in top-of-the-market trophy listings — their priciest condo sold for around $8.5 million — they have racked up big overall numbers by closing a high volume of deals.
They moved to Town Residential in 2012 from MNS, where they were the firm's top-ranked resale brokers. Now they manage Town's Greenwich Village and Soho office, overseeing more than 2,000 rental units. They're also getting their feet wet in the new development business, with sales in developments such as Chelsea's 420 West 25th Street and Williamsburg's 190 Conselyea Street.
"We're pitching more new developments than ever before," Porter said. "But we've never forgotten about our rental business."
The duo is also managing a portfolio of 500 townhouses in the metropolitan area, including about 100 units in Manhattan and Brooklyn, for Australian real estate investment trust Dixon Advisory, LeFauve said. The majority of the townhomes are being converted into single-family rentals, and LeFauve and Porter are involved in all aspects of the design, consulting and leasing. They recently received a letter of intent for a sale at 582 Second Street at $1,400 per square foot, which is a price-per-square-foot record for a walk-up in the borough, Porter said.
Luciane Serifovic, 32, Douglas Elliman
Luciane Serifovic
A native of Rio de Janeiro, Serifovic's first job in the U.S. at age 18 was making cappuccinos in an Italian coffee shop. She didn't speak much English at the time, and would trip up on simple orders. But she mastered the language in about eight months, she said, and went on to earn her real estate license in 2002.
After a yearlong stint at residential firm Citysites Realty, she joined Citi Habitats in 2003. For her interview with Gordon Golub, now a top executive at Urban Compass, Serifovic, then 20, wore glasses to appear more mature.
"I could barely see him during the interview," she said.
Until 2007, she worked out of Citi Habitats' Upper East Side office as a manager, which she said became the firm's top-producing office in the city during her time there. She then ran the firm's 250 Park Avenue South office, which she told TRD became the top-producing office per desk.
Serifovic joined Elliman as a vice president in the property management division in July 2013. And last month she was promoted to a higher-profile position at Elliman: director of rentals.
She will now oversee the firm's New York rental operations and provide support for Elliman's other national markets.
In 2013, Elliman did nearly 9,000 rental transactions in the city, she said. The firm acts as the exclusive rental agent for major landlords, and also does property management for mega-landlords such as the Moinian Group.
She's already revamped Elliman's agent training program, she said, coming up with the idea for an app that allows agents to register for classes with their iPhone.
"I don't think they know my age," Serifovic quipped, alluding to the fact that she's one of the youngest people in top management at the firm.

Building on an already strong foundation, a new formulation of Springer 16 lead feed grain mix is delivering further improved health and productivity improvements in herds across Victoria.
Reid Stockfeeds has incorporated the latest knowledge on feeding to support cows through a successful transition from a dry cow to a high performing milker. The new formulation, first released as a selected trial in 2016, has resulted in irrefutable improvements in herd performance, leading to the full-scale release of the product in March 2017.
"Our aim with the Springer 16 reformulation was to further improve the transition outcomes on farm, knowing the end gain would be improved production and profitability", said Kelly Slattery, a Senior Nutritionist at Reid Stockfeeds.
The modifications to Springer 16 have re-affirmed Reid Stockfeeds' ongoing commitment to delivering the latest knowledge and research to its feed, with changes providing a multitude of benefits at the farm level.
The new formulation delivers increased levels of magnesium and vitamin D, in the form of Hy D, a more bio active form of vitamin D. Both magnesium and vitamin D support the cow's natural system of upregulating calcium absorption from their feed and the release of calcium from bones into the blood stream. This sets the cow up to better cope with additional calcium demand at the onset of milk production and reduces the risk of milk fever.
Less milk fever cases in the herd means better cow health, reproduction and production outcomes.
"Milk fever weakens the immune system, increasing the chance of mastitis and metritis. A cow with milk fever is also at greater risk of other metabolic disease such as ketosis and she is likely to take longer to get back in calf", explains Ms. Slattery.
Other changes to Springer 16 include increased levels of Vitamin A & E as well as higher rates of trace minerals including copper, cobalt, zinc, selenium and manganese. Adjustments have been made to the chloride and sulphur ions that contribute to the -1000 mEq/kgDM DCAD.
Leaving nothing to chance, Reid Stockfeeds even conducted palatability testing at multiple farms, ensuring the nutritional benefits will not be left in the trough. "The feed only works if the cows eat it", explains Ms. Slattery, "We added flavours and sweeteners to the feed and the cows love it".
Back on the farm, the benefits are being realised, with farmers using Springer 16 enjoying a relatively stress free calving season. Fewer birthing complications have lightened the farmer's work load and vet bills to boot.
"This year, we fed Springer 16 to half our calving herd and it's been remarkable to see the differences in performance", said Rodney Bakker, a dairy farmer from the south-west of Victoria. "The birthing process of the cows we fed Springer 16 has been much smoother. We've not had to intervene in any of the births".
"Last year, our vet was needed on three or four occasions during the calving season. We're yet to have a single call out this year", noted Mr. Bakker.
Tom Wright, another Springer 16 convert from Victoria's south-west noted, "We've not yet finished calving season and already saved a minimum of $1,500 in vet bills as compared to last year. And that's excluding medication, which has been a significant expense previously".
After giving birth, Springer 16 fed mothers are returning to the milking shed quicker, providing a welcome boost to the farmer's bottom line. "The warm up period for the Springer 16 fed cows has been half that of the rest of the herd", Mr. Bakker commented. "In less than ten days, the cows are back to full milking productivity".
"The mothers are recovering from calving much quicker", remarked Mr. Wright. "The calves are also, fitter, heathier and more resilient".
The benefits from the reformulated Springer 16 feed are being passing from mother to calf, both in and out of the womb.
"The calves are hitting the ground in much better condition", said Mr. Wright. "Even in the calf shed, you can see the difference, with the Springer 16 calves thriving in the first few weeks".
"This year, we've been selling our 5-day old bull calves at 40kg plus. The calves who were not exposed to Springer 16, weigh closer to 35kg", said Mr. Bakker.
For the early adopters of the reformulated Springer 16 lead feed, the ledger is certainly in the black. The improvements to herd productivity, along with the reduction of associated costs are more than justifying the outlay of lead feeding.
"Once you've factored in the lower vet costs, no cow deaths associated with calving and a very low number of issues with the calves, the costs of Springer 16 become a non-issue", said Mr. Wright.
"It's not even a question if we'll continue using Springer 16", said Mr. Bakker.
To recognise the full benefits of the reformulated Springer 16, Reid Stockfeeds recommends introducing the feed into a cow's diet at 3kg/cow/day for 21 days prior to expected calving.

Among the Republicans who have announced an interest in being their party's nominee for the open 48th state Senatorial District seat are: (top row, from left) Thomas Ryan and Maureen Roth; (second row, from left) Robert Harkins and Gregory Moreland; (bottom row, from left) Christopher Gebhard and William Bering Jr. Not shown are Larry Minnich, Kenneth Rummel and Thomas Morrissey Jr., who also expressed an interest in the nomination.

Nine candidates have stepped forward to indicate an interest in being the Republican nominee for the 48th state senatorial district seat that will be filled in a special election set to coincide with the May 18 primary, while local Democratic leaders await their first candidate to announce.
The predominantly Republican district represents all of Lebanon County and parts of Dauphin and York counties, and the slate of Republicans seeking their party's nomination include residents from all three counties.
They are: Gregory Moreland, Larry Minnich, William Bering Jr., Christopher Gebhard, Kenneth Rummel, and Thomas Morrissey Jr., all from Lebanon County; Maureen Roth from Dauphin County; and Thomas Ryan and Robert Harkins from York County.
Lebanon County GOP Committee Chairman Ed Lynch said no firm date has been set for the Republican conferees to meet to select their party's nominee.
Dauphin County Democratic Committee Chairwoman Rogette Harris said on Thursday committee people from the senatorial district will meet virtually on March 13 to select a nominee. The deadline for Democratic candidates to express interest in the nomination is February 26th.
The seat became vacant due to the Jan. 17 death of Dave Arnold from a form of brain cancer. Arnold had served in the seat for about a year after being elected in a special election last January to fill the seat vacated in September 2019 by Mike Folmer, who resigned after being charged with child pornography possession. Arnold's term was due to expire Nov. 30, 2022, so his successor would serve out the remainder of his term.
Here is a brief summary of the Republican candidates who responded to a request for information about their interest in serving in the Senate:
Moreland, 37, of Palmyra, was Arnold's chief of staff and prior to that, policy advisor to former Speaker of the House Mike Turzai. He came to work for the Legislature after retiring from the U.S. Army in 2015, where he served seven years as a paratrooper and platoon sergeant. In his legislative staff roles, he aided in authoring numerous bills, obtaining grants, and standing up against Gov. Tom Wolf's COVID-19 policies including his business closure orders. He pledges to be a full-time legislator who wants to continue the work Arnold and he started and has shown a familiarity with issues currently before the General Assembly.
"Democrats have consistently pushed for imposing a job-killing severance tax, increasing taxes on hardworking Pennsylvanians, and increasing the size of government and its programs. The Republican candidate for the 48th must be thoughtful, analytical, and tough. I believe my track record shows these traits," Moreland said in a letter expressing his interest in the seat. "My knowledge, skills, and abilities, coupled with my unrelenting work ethic and a proven record of success in Harrisburg, make me the best candidate."
He, along with Bering and Ryan, were among those who sought the GOP nomination in 2019 when Arnold, the former longtime Lebanon County district attorney, was selected.
Bering, 37, of Swatara Township in Lebanon County, is a member of his township board of supervisors and vice president of family-owned Bering Real Estate Co. The married father of two said he finds it "humbling and gratifying" to be involved in local government.
"Seeing firsthand what our governor has done to our small business community has been heart-wrenching. I want our small business owners to know a vote for me will be a vote for their representation in Harrisburg," Bering said. "Lastly, I have two daughters ages 9 and 5. I want them to see the importance of being involved in our local community in hopes they too will want to pursue public service later in life."
Gebhard, 46, of North Cornwall Township, is president and CEO of Hoaster Gebhard & Co., an insurance and risk management firm. He is involved in various community organizations. The married father of two said he believes everyone has a civic and moral duty to strive to make their community a better place to live and raise a family and serving in the Senate would allow him to expand on his public service record.
"I believe we are at a critical moment for the 48th Senatorial District," Gebhard said. "Political strife is rampant, Tom Wolf governs with an emergency declaration and a liberal Pennsylvania Supreme Court establishes election law based upon its rulings. The residents of the 48th need an individual who is willing to fight for their interests in Harrisburg. We need a strong conservative that is vested in the long-term success of the district and someone who isn't seeking the office for their own political gain."
Roth, 47, of Paxtang, is a a licensed mental health counselor who also has experience as a former hospice chaplain and senior center director. The married mother of five and former president of the music boosters at Central Dauphin East High School said she has seen the effects of COVID-19 on children and families and believes that experience gives her perspective on some of the issues facing residents of the 48th Senatorial District.
Moreover, "I believe a valuable cross section of Dauphin County is going under-represented [Steelton-Highspire-Middletown]. These 3 communities represent a unique snap shot of Pennsylvania's rich cultural heritage(s) that can teach us so much about getting along and learning lessons from across the aisle," Roth said. "Those same valuable influences are also a part of Lebanon city and other communities that make up the beautiful tapestry of Lebanon County. I am hoping my experience as a mental health counselor will allow me to use my talents to reach across the aisle. I am not a politician. But I will do what is necessary to make the voices of those who live in the 48th District heard."
Ryan, 68, of Springettsbury Twp, is the retired CFO of his family business, Motor Technology, Inc. of York. Prior to that, he worked in corporate public relations. investor relations and financial communications in New York City, which included running his own consulting firm. For the past several years, he also has served on the leadership council of the Pennsylvania National Federation of Independent Business.
"I am running again, notwithstanding the odds against a non-Lebanon candidate, because the stakes are even higher this go-round given that it will take more than the reigning 'abundance of caution' tax-and-spend mentality to recover from a Covid-weakened economy that has been unnecessarily further weakened and held back by the current state administration's misjudgments and mismanagement," Ryan said. "Based on my leadership, business and policy experience, I can bring a more strategically targeted and disciplined mindset to creating the changes needed to recover and move forward."
Harkins, 54, of Newberry Township, is owner of Harcon Services Inc., a small construction company. The married father of six has been self-employed for 32 years and formerly coached girls softball and Little League baseball teams.
"I feel a strong calling after the 2020 elections to get involved in our local government to help uphold our state constitution," Harkins said. "My main focus is election integrity. If we are going to continue mail in voting on the scale we just saw in 2020 we need to have safeguards in place. We also need to insure ballad harvesting doesn't take place in PA. I do not have a political background but I do not get involved in anything without giving 100 percent commitment. I am confident I can be a positive asset to the Republican party to stand against or work with local Democrats in order to make our state government work to its full potential and benefit all of our citizens."
Minnich, the mayor of Cleona; Morrissey, owner of the Lebanon Farmers Market, and Rummel did not respond to a request or provide information about their candidacies.
Along with all of Lebanon County, this senatorial district encompasses Dauphin County municipalities of Conewago, Londonderry, Swatara and Lower Swatara townships and the boroughs of Highspire, Middletown, Paxtang, Royalton and Steelton; and the York County municipalities of Conewago, East Manchester, Newberry and Springettsbury townships and the borough of Goldsboro, Lewisberry, Manchester, Mount Wolf, and York Haven.
* This post has been updated to include the date of the Democrats' nomination convention for this seat as well as the deadline by which Democratic candidates must make their interest in pursuing the nomination known.
