12 Questions For Arun Shourie That We Wish He Answers
by Swarajya Staff - Jun 4, 2019 12:49 PM +05:30 IST
Arun Shourie. (Swarajya File Photo)
The Modi government is back with a bang and how, despite criticisms of his leadership from those who call themselves "intellectuals".
To the revered, once-upon-a-time-firebrand journalist-minister and ubiquitous public commentator, Arun Shourie, who in his heydays never missed an opportunity to speak on issues of importance, we have a few questions. While a response is not guaranteed, ask we will:
Q1. You described Narendra Modi's government as a government by revelation, focused on event management, highly centralised, run by 2.5 people. This same government has been entrusted by the people of India with even a bigger mandate to run the country again. How do you read this verdict?
Q2: You once compared Modi's persona to that of a black triad and one aspect of that is Machiavellianism in which everything and everybody is used an instrument only to be dumped once they have served the purpose. You said Modi uses and discards people like a napkin. Do you feel that way - that you were used and thrown by Modi?
Q3: What was your role in Modi's 2014 campaign? What topics or issues did you advise him on? Were any of your suggestions taken up by him in the campaign speeches or later in the government?
Q4: One Congress spokesperson, Tehseen Poonawalla, has written that you were also part of Rahul Gandhi's braintrust in 2019 elections and strategised for him? What is your assessment of Gandhi? What key issues did you advise him on and what was the specific advice you gave him on these issues?
Q5: In one of your many interviews with the far-left portal The Wire, you said that you look forward to Jignesh Mevani, Kanhaiya Kumar, Alpesh Thakor, Hardik Patel emerging as new leaders of the country. As someone who claimed to have stood against identity based politics, what explains your endorsement of their leadership?
Q6: In 2014, you said the secularism concept has been prostituted in India so much so that it now meant calling others communal. You gave the example of how when a religious place of non-Hindus is mismanaged, its their community which takes care of it, but when temples are mismanaged, the government takes over. In the past five years, a movement to free temples from government control has taken shape. What are your views on this?
Q7: When the Sachar committee report came out, you had said that, "Implement this report, and see Modi reaching Delhi." Correlation is not causation, but both things happened. What we have seen is that the communal recommendations of the Sachar report, chiefly the exclusive scholarships for minorities, exclusive schemes for them where the general public has a stake too, are implemented even by the BJP government. So, the Sachar report, which was opposed tooth and nail by the BJP then, has become bipartisan. How do you see this dangerous development?
Q8: When we have communal laws which apply only to non-minorities, when scholarships are given to minorities based on religion, when places of religious worship are governed depending on which gods people pray to in them, and when we see this all happening under a secular Constitution, one can't help but agree with you that the secularism concept in India has indeed been prostituted. Now, you said that true secularism should have the individual as the unit of state policy rather than a caste or a religious group. We have seen 10 years of so-called "secular" UPA governance and will see 10 years of a so-called "communal" NDA government. Do you see the individual becoming the unit of India's state policy in the near future?
Q9: Which part of your intellectual legacy are you proud of and would still stand by? The blistering critical book on Ambedkar( Worshipping False Gods: Ambedkar And The Facts Which Have Been Erased) ? On missionaries ( Harvesting Our Souls: Missionaries, Their Designs, Their Claims)? Against reservations ( Falling Over Backwards: An Essay On Reservations, And On Judicial Populism)? This question is necessitated because your friends in the media don't touch upon these and avoid them like the plague as if these don't matter anymore or as if you have no view on them at all.
Q10: In 2014, you said Muslims have nothing to fear from Modi. You said that media is stoking these fears, calling Modi extremist and asking him to be like Advani or Vajpayee when, in fact, during the latter's time they used to paint them with the same extremist brush. However, in last three years, haven't you done quite a bit of stoking of fears yourself by lending yourself to the mob lynching narrative of the media? I say this because a couple of incidents were blown out of proportion so much so that directly, the PM of the country was put in the dock rather than answers being demanded from the local government. Hundreds of cases of stray cattle being stolen by the cattle mafia on the other hand don't find any space in the media narrative. Isn't this the typical way of stoking fear among minorities by running a targeted campaign? And why are you found siding with the media rather than raising the voice of those cattle rearing farmers whose voice no one raises? I am asking this because you've talked at length about raising truth to power - not just of the government of the day, but powers in academia, media and intellectual circles.
Q11: "Not an eye-for-an-eye but both eyes. Whole jaw-for-a-tooth." How did Arun Shourie go from that to mocking the government which carried out surgical strikes (calling it farzical) and Balakot strike?
Q12: You once coined the delectable phrase 'Marxist-Mullah-Missionaries' to signify India's enemies. What would the updated version of it be?

Native support for Allegorithmic procedural Substance materials.
Tweak and change exposed substance parameters right inside of Unity.
Change substance parameters at runtime on PC and Mac.
Gain major file size savings due to the compactness of procedural textures on PC and Mac.
Bake substances into regular textures and materials on mobile platforms.
Scene View icons for game objects and script assets can now easily be assigned by using the new Icon Selector opened by clicking on the icon in the Inspector.
Rendering of gizmos and icons can now be controlled using the new 'Gizmos' drop-down window found in the toolbar of the Scene View and the Game View.
Toggling of gizmos is linked to the collapsed or expanded state of the corresponding components, making it simple to only see the gizmos you need.
Support for setting a world size to render all icons with makes it simple to only see nearby icons.
Unity now gives you explicit control over the execution order in your scripts. Awake, OnEnable and Update calls are sorted by execution order. Execution order can be defined on a 'per script' basis in an easy-to-understand dialog.
Caching now works on all platforms. PC/Mac Standalone players and iOS/Android players have access to a 4 GiB dedicated cache for each application. The webplayer has a 50mb shared cache. A larger application-specific WebPlayer cache can be acquired from Unity Technologies. Caching of course greatly improves loading time not only due to the removed download, but also because the cached files are stored already decompressed on disk. Using the caching feature also greatly reduces memory usage since Unity doens't need to keep any additional data in memory. It is strongly recommended that you always use the caching API for large assets.
A new function BuildPipeline.BuildStreamedSceneAssetBundle makes it easy to create entire scenes and their dependencies into an asset bundle and download them on demand.
Downloading and streaming with the WWW class uses way less memory now. Especially significant when loading from disc using the file:// protocol. You can now load much bigger AssetBundles from disc without running out of memory.
Debug.DrawLine and Debug.DrawRay now has an optional parameter to control the duration of time a debug line should be rendered.
New mouse event for MonoBehaviour: OnMouseUpAsButton. It is only called when the mouse is released over the same GUIElement or Collider as it was pressed.
New interface for ObjectField that controls if scene objects should be assignable to the object field or not. Old interface marked as obsolete since it allowed invalid references e.g assets with with references to scene objects.
Primitive Colliders can now be modified in Scene View by holding down SHIFT.
The preview in the Inspector is now resizable and no longer part of the scroll-view.
Directional Lights got new shadow projection mode, Stable Fit (default for new projects; change in Quality Settings). Old behaviour is Close Fit. Stable Fit results in slightly lower resolution, but shadow boundaries do not shimmer/wobble when rotating the camera.
Much improved shadow caster culling (less draw calls). Better sorting of shadow casters for GPU efficiency.
Added Very High shadow resolution option.
SSE2 optimized skinning for Windows & Intel Macs. Improved multithreaded skinning efficiency on Macs.
#pragma exclude_renderers/only_renderers can now use "shaderonly" (GLES2.0, 360, PS3 etc.) keyword.
tex2Dgrad and tex2Dlod are supported when cross-compiling shaders into GLSL.
Ability to access per-vertex light data in all platforms including OpenGL ES 2.0. Use float4 unity_LightPosition, unity_LightColor, unity_LightAtten.
Added mobile optimized VertexLit and Unlit shaders.
Deferred Lighting is able to use Occlusion Culling to cull invisible Point & Spot lights.
Faster Point & Spot light rendering in Deferred Lighting (draws a more compact light shape).
Optimized light culling in Forward rendering.
Optimized per-vertex lighting in GLES 2.0 when fixed function shaders are used.
Added Shader.WarmupAllShaders() to help reduce shader loading related hiccups.
Added support for precomputed bounding volumes for Skinned Mesh Renderer and the animation component. This improves performance and lets you better cull animations & skinned meshes with minimal CPU overhead.
Added Terrain support for iOS.
EAGLView wrapped into UIViewController / iOS native style of autorotation. Also added non-animated autorotation path. Corresponding option added to PlayerSettings.
Added explicit null check option to the AOT code output, which should produce NullReference exceptions without causing SIGABRT in Xcode. Enabled when development player is selected and script debugging enabled.
Improved automatic plugin inclusion for iOS. Now main.mm / AppController.mm could be substituted by the one supplied in Plugins/iOS.
Mobile Quality Settings default to "Simple".
Improved iOS project postprocessing performance. Runtime libs could be symlinked by checking appropriate option in Build Settings panel.
Parallel AOT cross compilation for faster game build times.
iOS SDK selection defaults to "latest".
Terrains are now available on Android.
The new Texture Compression override enables developers to target devices with support for specific GL texture-compression formats. With the new Multiple APK Support in the Android Market it helps to cut the distribution size of the application.
Android now supports AssetBundles built with BuildAdditionalStreamedScenes, to help minimize distribution size and enable streaming of new content from the web.
The mesh animation skinning algorithm now uses multi-threaded processing to harness some of the power of the multi-core CPUs available in new Android devices.
Because a number of critical issues were fixed in this version, we encourage everyone to republish any applications built with previous releases.
All console versions are now released at same time as 3.4. Projects can easily be moved between all platforms.
Rochard, our first PS3 game, has succesfully completed the Sony Submission process.
Our first Xbox 360 game has succesfully passed pre-cert. And will soon go through Submission 1.
First Wii game powered by Unity 3.4 is about to go through lotcheck.
You can now drag any GameObject into the project view to create a prefab with minimal hassle.
Faster Play/Stop times on scenes with many prefabs.
The Object Picker can now show individual previews for sub-assets, such as the individual meshes in a model asset.
MonoDevelop is now the default script editor.
Optimized PVRTC decompressor; scenes/textures will load much faster when in iOS mode.
Launch VS using the C#-only solution by default.
Primitive Collider handles are now only shown when pressing Shift.
Show recommended shader help text in Material Inspector.
Implemented field for editing Bounds in the inspector.
Implemented editing of Bounds for Animation and SkinnedMeshRenderer components in the Inspector and Scene view.
Improved VisualStudio/MonoDevelop solution synchronization performance.
Added depth buffer bits field to RenderTexture inspector.
GenericMenu has been documented and should be used for custom context menus.

Cataract surgery is the removal of the natural focusing lens within the eyeball when it becomes cloudy and replacement with an artificial lens implant. This is performed through a small incision with an ultrasound device which dissolves the cataract and aspirates it from the eyeball, a process called phacoemulsification. There are usually no sutures required except in special circumstances.
Trabeculectomy is a procedure performed to reduce eye pressure in glaucoma by creation of a small opening in the wall of the eye which allows fluid within the eyeball to trickle out and collect within a small bubble of tissue (called a bleb) at the top of the eyeball. Very often a drug called mitomycin is used during the trabeculectomy surgery to prevent later scarring which would close off the opening which is created. Newer procedures are being developed including some of the procedures listed below which are used for milder cases of glaucoma and reduce the risks which accompany a trabeculectomy procedure.
Express Shunt is a proprietary name for a device used to perform a variation on the trabeculectomy surgery technique, but which accomplishes essentially the same end result and carries a similar profile of indications and risks. The shunt is a small metallic tube which is placed in the wall of the eye to create a bypass for fluid to exit the eye.
Trabectome is a proprietary name for equipment used to remove the wall of the internal drain of the eyeball and allow fluid to leave the eyeball more directly. The procedure performed with the Trabectome device is meant to reduce eye pressure without creating the bleb which a trabeculectomy would create, thereby trying to prevent potential problems which can sometimes arise from creation of a bleb.
Canaloplasty is another procedure for glaucoma for reduction of intraocular pressure without formation of a bleb. It involves placing a stenting suture within the drainage canal (Schlemm's canal) within the eyeball to increase the efficiency of drainage of fluid out of the eyeball.
iStent is a proprietary name for a metallic stenting device which pierces the wall of the drainage canal (Schlemm's canal) within the eyeball and allows direct shunting of fluid within the eyeball into Schlemms canal with the goal of reducing eye pressure.
Glaucoma drainage tubes are tubes usually made from silicone which shunt fluid from within the eyeball to an external reservoir to reduce eye pressure. There are various brands and models of these devices which can be valved to limit flow through the tube or non-valved.
Laser cyclophotocoagulation is a procedure which uses a probe to deliver laser energy directly to the part of the eye which produces fluid within the eyeball, thereby reducing the fluid produced and in turn reducing the eye pressure. This has typically been the procedure of last resort used when other glaucoma procedures fail, but newer technology is available which may permit its use for milder cases of glaucoma.
Combined cataract and glaucoma procedures use a combination of one of the above glaucoma procedures with cataract surgery when both a cataract and glaucoma are present..

The character of everything we see is defined by form and color. Form and color are distinct qualities that not only complement, but also depend on each other. The form, however, is always the essence.
The Meander painting is based on the idea of using form and color as opposing entities – the form to engage the intellect, and the color to evoke emotions. Of course, intellect and emotion are intertwined; one never acts without the other.
The painting's square surface is vertically divided in half. The left side contains the grey meander form on white, and the right side is occupied by two color squares. The meander's elaborate form juxtaposed with the two plain color squares creates ambivalence between thinking and feeling.
While the reaction to the colors is primarily emotional, the meander's zigzagging form engages the viewer's intellect and raises questions: What does it represent? What is the significance of the meander's connection to the two color squares? Does it continue behind the colors? Where does it start and end?
Creating the meander is a spontaneous process by drawing on paper with pencil. Later, the form is developed and refined to perfect the figure/ground relationship. Establishing the colors is influenced by aesthetic preference, feeling, and experimentation.


This is a set of bespoke fitted wardrobes with sliding dressing room doors and reeded glass. They are made from natural Sapele frames with a clear oil. The client requested a Scandinavian design which was well suited to the timber and reeded window look.
These fitted wardrobes required smooth dual running sliding door track. This allows both doors to operate even with one door being moved. The doors were part of a project within a traditional Leamington Spa town house, to the master bedroom and adjoining dressing room.
The client has spent a lot of time travelling which had influenced her sense of style. This was reflected in the Scandinavian feel of the walk-in dressing room doors.

This is the time of year where every trip to the Greenmarket results in bringing home at least one butternut squash. I love butternut squash but hate the effort it requires. Peeling, cutting, roasting… A few months ago I made a Roasted Apple & Butternut Squash salad for a dinner party. Yeah, forgot how much of a pain peeling squash is. So for the most part I stick to butternut squash puree. My secret is NO PEELING and minimal effort.
Think about it. If you want to make butternut squash, all you need is puree. Why spend time peeling and cubing when you can just roast the whole thing and puree it all. In the end, no one will even notice the difference between cubed or whole roasted. I roast squash all fall, puree and freeze it in 2 cup containers, so I'm set throughout the winter. I'm left with fresh, local squash for soups, risottos or other recipes.
STEP 1: Cut squash in half and scoop out seeds. Meanwhile preheat oven to 400°F. Fill medium pot or tea kettle with water and bring to a boil.
STEP 2: Place squash flesh side down in a baking dish and fill with a little less than 1 inch of water. Roast in oven for approximately 50-60 minutes. Squash is done when you can easily press down on the skin and it indents.
STEP 3: Once squash is cool to touch, scoop out flesh and puree until smooth in food processor.
STEP 4: Spoon into freezer safe containers (Chinese food containers!) and freeze for another day. I find freezing in two cut quantities is perfect for most recipes I use.

Available on Amazon & Kindle
Fact Of The Day -
Until 1983, the 1980 episode of Dallas in which J.R. Ewing was shot was the most-watched television episode in history. Larry Hagman, the actor who portrayed J.R. Ewing, left The U.S.A. during contract negotiations. He made himself indispensable to the show by making public appearances and building hype around the character; this led to him becoming one of the highest-earning television actors of all time. He was the only cast member to appear in all 357 episodes of the original show. The show was also translated and dubbed in 67 languages in over 90 countries - a record that still stands for an American TV show. Source: Clever Knickers – facts & general knowledge

Morgan Stanley Donates $5 Million to 22 Hunger Relief Organizations Worldwide Through Move for Meals Campaign
Employees Walked Over 690 Million Steps to Raise Awareness of Hunger Globally
New York —
Morgan Stanley today announced a donation of $5 million to 22 hunger relief organizations worldwide, equaling 50 million meals, as a result of its latest employee campaign: Move for Meals. From June 1-6, 15,086 employees in more than 533 cities around the world participated in the Move for Meals campaign, walking over 690 million steps to raise funds and awareness for global hunger.
The Morgan Stanley Move for Meals campaign builds on the Firm's ongoing commitment to children's health and providing sustained access to nutritious food. Morgan Stanley hosted its first Move for Meals campaign in October 2020 that resulted in a donation of $2.5 million to hunger relief organizations worldwide, equaling 25 million meals. However, the needs of communities are still dire with one in four people malnourished globally, and, in the U.S., Feeding America® projects that approximately 42 million people, including 13 million children, could face hunger this year due to the pandemic.
"Morgan Stanley is dedicated to giving back to the communities in which we live and work – and fighting food insecurity is a crucial part of that commitment," said Joan Steinberg, Global Head of Philanthropy at Morgan Stanley. "We are excited to bring back Move for Meals, an opportunity for our employees to join together once again around the world and help fight hunger as a Firm by helping global hunger-relief organizations do their important work to fight hunger disparity that has only worsened throughout the pandemic."
Since the start of the pandemic, food banks across the U.S. and around the world have seen both their food supplies drop and their demand increase. During the first twelve months of the pandemic, Feeding America member food banks saw an estimated 55% increase in the number of people seeking food assistance.
To learn more about Morgan Stanley's giving back efforts, please see here.
Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) is a leading global financial services firm providing investment banking, securities, wealth management and investment management services. With offices in more than 41 countries, the Firm's employees serve clients worldwide including corporations, governments, institutions and individuals.

Q: How to use custom blade directive in Laravel I am trying to use the argument passed in the directive to evaluate a condition and returned a string like this
Blade::directive('resource', function($page) {
    return (strcmp(URL::full(), URL::to("/admin/" + $page)) == 0) ? "active" : "inactive";
});

If the page name passed in evaluates to the full url then return the active string, otherwise return inactive. For styling purposes
The problem is that $page evaluates to (value) where value is the string passed in. Am I able to use this argument to do calculation on conditions here?

Jason's new book is called "What Do White Americans Owe Black People?" and let's just say that his conclusions put him in direct opposition to Marxist racist grifters like Ibram X Kendi.

Conservative Christians aim to conserve Christian teaching in public life. Universal healthcare, free pre-k and a host of other issues included in Biden's Build Back Better proposal are essential to the Christian creed.

Psalm 110:1 reads, "The Lord says to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool." David is speaking prophetically about Christ. After he was crucified and raised from the dead, he ascended to heaven and sat down at the right hand of God, a posture of a reigning king invested with the power of God. This psalm is the most quoted in the New Testament.

Pentru o formulă magică, vezi Abracadabra.

Abracadabra este numele unei emisiuni pentru copii ce a debutat la data de 10 martie 1991 pe postul TVR1; după aceea, în 1996, Abracadrabra s-a mutat pe postul PRO TV,  unde a fost difuzată până în 2001, după care PRO TV a difuzat reluări timp de un an.

La TVR Abracadabra a avut o perioadă de glorie în care Marian Râlea, Marele Magician și asistenții săi, Mica – Michaela Niculescu (6.11.1981-14.03.2013), Radu Bărbulescu, Andreea Caranda și Ducu Ion au evoluat în emisiuni cu bună audiență. Scenariile erau scrise de Eugen Patriche, imaginea Florin Țolaș, producător Ruxandra Ion. Emisiunea a luat primul premiu internațional la Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria în 1994 pentru musicalul "Zâna cea Bună"(1993), iar mai târziu filmul Ruxandrei și al lui Florin "O zi cu Alexandra" a obținut Marele Premiu și Premiul Juriului la "Prix Danube" la Bratislava! In lumea programelor pentru copiii "Prix Jeunesse" de la Munchen și "Prix Danube" echivalau ca nivel cu Cannes si Venetia pentru cinema.

Pe blogul eugenpatriche.wordpress.com se relatează de către E.Patriche care era nu doar scenaristul programului ci și șeful Redacției pentru copiii: "Am trimis o hârtie "sus" [director general era ,parcă ,Dumitru Popa] cerând câte o primă specială de un milion pentru cei doi autori, n-am primit niciun răspuns. In aceste condiții nu am ezitat să semnez transferul Ruxandrei și al lui Țolaș la ProTv, Adrian Sârbu se dovedea că are fler. Tot ce puteam face era să o trimit pe Ruxandra cu filmul ei la Chicago și Lisabona unde au avut succes".
Pe 5 martie 1996 "Super Abracadabra" a debutat la Pro TV, emisiunea 259 din 25 februarie 2001 avea sa fie ultima! Din aprilie Marian Rilea avea sa treaca pe scena Teatrului National pentru Copiii organizat de TNB si fundatia Abracadabra.
La ProTv s-au alăturat echipei asistenții cei mici, Abramburica și Abramburici - Dana Rogoz și Geo Morcov și precum și talentata Iulia Stănescu.

Eugen Patriche a fost scenarist al programului "Abracadabra" de la începuturile sale, cu o scurtă perioadă când a semnat cu pseudonimul Ioan Munteanu. Din 1998 s-a transferat de altfel la Pro TV. După seria de filmulețe realizate la TVR - Cenușăreasa, Prinț și cerșetor, etc-a urmat o avalanșă de povești și cântece/compozitorul fiind Virgil Popescu pentru că show-ul era săptămânal. Exemple: Dosarele Abra - serie de 12 episoade, Desființați etajul 2 - 8 episoade, Răzbunarea lui Peter Pan- 5 episoade, Cui i-e frică de întuneric? -17 episoade, aici fiind adaptări ale unor povești clasice ca Greuceanu, Cenușăreasa, Jack și fasolea fermecată, Robin Hood, Robinson Crusoe. Au mai fost: Poveștile lui Moș Ene -4, Poveștile Magicianului- 4, emisiunile special de sărbători sau "Abramacabra" (1999) în regia lui Ducu Darie, Familia Fulger, Singură la tata - 2 episoade. De mare succes s-au bucurat "Vânătoarea de vrăjitoare" – 9 episoade, "Bebel cel urâțel" -10 episoade, "Visul unei nopți de toamnă" – Premiul Mediafest 1997.

Au fost lansate 51 de cântece pentru copiii, majoritatea compuse de Virgil Popescu și puține de St.Elefteriu, Adrian Pleșca, Cristi Sandu. S-au editat casete audio,albume.
Un blog interesant Krossfire's Blog conține amintiri și opinii ale multor copiii, pe atunci, care s-au bucurat de asemenea programe

I know that, at times, the journey seems so long and so difficult that the very thought of taking just one more step seems, well, impossible. You struggle with what lies ahead of you as much as with what remains behind you. You look in all directions, but there seems to be no way out.
Maybe it's money, maybe it's friendships or relationships, maybe it's the passing of a loved one. Or maybe it's just because. There are times when we don't need to pin our struggles on this one thing or that particular event. Darkness finds us. Sometimes it descends slowly, while other times it seems to pounce on us so unexpectedly that we are paralyzed with fear.
It doesn't matter. I will always believe in you.
From time to time, our hardships accumulate like little weights, tugging at us, slowing us down, putting us behind others and our commitments or responsibilities. And because it is so slow and so gradual, we don't even realize it until we're wondering what has happened to us. How did we get here. How in the world will we ever get out.
At these times, when there is great despair or seemingly a loss of hope or faith, know that you are not alone. Know that you are loved. Know that your life matters.
Know that I believe in you.
Sometimes, when we've been immersed in tough times, we feel like we are sinking, unable to muster the strength to resurface and fill our lungs with chi, energy, life. But in those times, all it takes is a little tilt this way, a glide that way, and a gradual shift in our movement that brings the light back into sight. We see the promise of that new day, of possibility, and we know that it will take less energy to lift our eyes in a new direction and experience the love that awaits.
Love and faith and hope. Beautiful possibilities for you because you exist. Because you are loved.
Do not worry. Let the sorrow come, and let the sorrow go, and know deep in your heart that we never left your side. We will be there when you resurface. We will be there when you fill your lungs with love. We will be there when you open your eyes into the bright, bright light.
We will be there simply because we believe in you.
And we always, always will.

Kathy is basically "Switzerland" within the dealership. She is undeniably an extremely sensible, calm, and collected person. Dealerships, like any business environment with alot of moving parts, can get very complex and always runs the risk of being disorderly. Kathy's super power is keeping us all well-knit, organized, and running smoothly. She is a huge book worm and will read anything you put in front of her eyes from cover to cover. We are always grateful for her diligent work at Champion.

Alan Mulally for Microsoft?
Posted on December 12, 2013	by chrismacgowan
Ford Motor Co's board of directors plans to press Chief Executive Alan Mulally soon for a decision on his future, as speculation intensifies that he may be offered the job of CEO at Microsoft Corp. Mulally, 68, is one of a handful of candidates still in contention for the Microsoft role, according to several sources close to the technology giant, and he has not tried to dispel talk that he is interested in the job.
That has begun to vex some on Ford's board, two sources told Reuters this week, and the issue will be discussed when the board meets in the Detroit area on Thursday. Mulally is a board member but it is not clear if he will attend the board meeting. The sources said that directors intended to raise the issue with him this week or next.
"It's drowning out the rest of the story," said one source close to Ford's board. "People don't write about Mustang, they don't write about earnings, they write about Mulally."
That has led to frustration and a desire for clarity, the source said. Microsoft declined comment on the progress of its CEO search, and a Ford spokesman repeated earlier statements that Mulally is slated to stay as Ford CEO through 2014, although it emerged in September that the board would be open to him leaving earlier than that. Several prominent Microsoft investors have campaigned behind the scenes for Mulally to succeed the retiring Steve Ballmer, and media attention has focused on him over the past few months. Sources with knowledge of the tech company's hunt for a new leader say Mulally is among a "handful" of contenders, and that Microsoft is strongly considering a younger, more tech-savvy external candidate.
FORD EXIT LIKELY
Mulally, credited with reviving Ford's fortunes since taking the helm in 2006, has already scaled back his involvement at the automaker this year, allowing younger executives to take a more prominent role, several people close to the automaker said.
Even if Mulally does not take the Microsoft job, it is unlikely he will stay at Ford through the end of next year, the two sources said. The board has gained confidence in Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields, a 24-year Ford veteran who is widely expected to be the next CEO.
"He has done what he needs to at Ford," said one person familiar with Mulally's thinking.
Mulally, poached from Boeing Co in 2006 to steer the U.S. automaker's turnaround, is credited with driving a culture change that saved Ford. That has made him an attractive candidate for Microsoft as the tech behemoth struggles to make a mark in the mobile-computing era.
But the speculation over whether he will take the Microsoft job has been a distraction for Ford, the sources said. The automaker is on the cusp of several key launches next year, including a risky and radical overhaul of one of its most profitable vehicles, the F-150 pickup truck.
On top of that, rival General Motors Co put the topic of auto industry leadership firmly in the spotlight on Tuesday with the surprise announcement that long-time insider Mary Barra would become its next CEO.
