designer gianni versace could fetch up to £9m ($17m) when it is auctioned in new
york and london later this year. among the pictures for sale are works by roy
lichtenstein andy warhol and henri matisse. the collection was housed at versace
s six-storey new york townhouse. the 51-year-old designer was shot outside his
florida home in 1997 by suspected serial killer andrew cunanan who later killed
himself. the auction at sotheby s will feature 45 contemporary impressionist
and 19th century paintings. one of the highlights of the sale is roy lichtenstein
s blue nude which has been given an estimate of £1.8m ($3.4m). tobias meyer sotheby
s worldwide head of contemporary art said: this collection reflects mr versace
s wide-ranging taste and impeccable eye and many of the works were commissioned
directly from the artists. outstanding later examples from champions of the pop
movement such as roy lichtenstein are juxtaposed with masterpieces from the
most visible artists of the 1980 s including jean-michel basquiat and the collaborative
genius of basquiat and warhol as well as francesco clemente. much of the collection
will be offered for sale at three auctions in new york in june with smaller contemporary
paintings going under the hammer in london on 22 and 23 june. a sale of versace
s furniture and artworks sold in 2001fetched £5.5m ($10.3m).'

by an average of about 4% in the coming year bbc scotland has learned. authorities
will decide final figures on thursday when projected increases will be more than
twice the rate of inflation which is currently 1.6%. the finance minister has
urged councils to limit increases but they have warned that they will struggle
to maintain services unless funding is increased. they say much additional government
money is for new initiatives. scottish finance minister tom mccabe msp said: last
week in parliament i announced an additional £419m for core expenditure to local
government in scotland. that s a 5.5% increase and sits against an inflation
rate of 1.6% so i think we have quite rightly said to councils this year that
we would at the very least ask them to exercise restraint. mr mccabe is also
looking for local authorities to become more efficient and save money in coming
years. he told bbc radio scotland s sunday live programme: here in scotland we
have 32 councils who all have their own individual collection systems for council
tax they have their own payroll systems and their own human resource systems. we
think there has to be opportunities there for rationalisation and using the money
saved to reinvest in frontline services. the councils umbrella organisation
cosla which provided bbc scotland with the indicative figures for next year warned
that councils would face a continuous struggle to maintain services. mr mccabe
has promised them about £8.1bn next year. however most of the increase is targeted
to new initiatives and councils will experience difficulties in maintaining core
services a cosla spokesman said. cosla says that it is willing to work with
the executive on finding efficiency savings but that these will not be enough
to maintain services. they say the funding plans for the next three years will
see councils lose more of the share of public spending. the conservatives accuse
the scottish executive of using the council tax to raise funds because it is too
afraid to raise income tax. the tory finance spokesman brian monteith msp said: its
a form of disguise... yet again we see that council tax is being used as a way
of passing on costs. scared of actually using its three pence income tax that
it could put up what we ve seen over the years is more and more burdens being
put onto local authorities and the council tax payer having to pick up the bill. there
are also warnings that unless funding to councils is increased in the next few
years then services may have to be reduced. linda knox director of the scottish
local authority management centre at strathclyde university said: with this
current settlement the increase is slowing. at the same time the burdens on councils
are greater than they were. the settlement figures don t include pay increases
and the executive is also requiring a substantial figure - in the area of £325m
- in efficiency savings across the settlement period. education will be protected
from any cuts but linda knox says this will mean other services will suffer. she
said: in practice that will mean a 4-5% cut for other services. on the face
of it the settlement looks like an increase of about 9.7% but by the time you
take into account other factors its probably only about 1% in real terms.'

gear may want to get their presents in early as experts predict a gadget shortage
this christmas. with apple s ipod topping wish lists again there may not be
enough ipod minis to go round predicts oliver irish editor of gadget magazine
stuff. the ipod mini is likely to be this year s tracey island said mr irish.
stuff has compiled a list of the top 10 gadgets for 2004 and the ipod is at number
one. for anyone bewildered by the choice of gadgets on the market stuff and
what hi-fi are hosting a best-of gadget show in london this weekend. star of
the show will be sony s qrio robot an all-singing all-dancing football-playing
man-machine who can even hold intelligent conversations. but he is not for sale
and sony has no commercial plans for the robot. he will greet visitors and is
flying in from japan. he probably has his own airplane seat that is how highly
sony prize him said mr irish. also on display will be a virtual keyboard which
projects itself onto any flat surface. the event will play host to a large collection
of digital music players from companies such as creative sony and philips as
well as the ubiquitously fashionable ipod from apple. suggestions that it could
be a gaming or wireless christmas are unlikely to come true as mp3 players remain
the most popular stocking filler said mr irish. demand is huge and apple has
promised that it can supply enough but people might struggle to get their hands
on ipod minis said mr irish. for those who like their gadgets to be multi-talented the
gizmondo a powerful gaming console with gps and gprs that also doubles up as
an mp3 player movie player and camera could be a must-have. what is impressive
is how much it can do and how well it can do them said mr irish. this christmas gadgets
will not be an all-male preserve. women will be getting gadgets from husbands
and boyfriends as well as buying them for themselves said mr irish. gadgets
nowadays are lifestyle products rather than just for geeks.

virus disguising itself as an electronic christmas card. the zafi.d virus translates
the christmas greeting on its subject line into the language of the person receiving
infected e-mail. anti-virus firms speculate that this multilingual ability is
helping the malicious program spread widely online. anti-virus firm sophos said
that 10% of the e-mail currently on the net was infected with the zafi virus. like
many other windows viruses zafi-d plunders microsoft outlook for e-mail addresses
and then uses mail-sending software to despatch itself across the web to new victims.
to be infected users must open up the attachment travelling with the message which
bears the code for the malicious bug. the attachment on the e-mail poses as an
electronic christmas card but anyone opening it will simply get a crude image
of two smiley faces. the virus subject line says merry christmas and translates
this into one of 15 languages depending of the final suffix of the e-mail address
the infected message has been sent to. the message in the body of the e-mail reads: happy
holidays and this too is translated. on infected machines the virus tries to
disable anti-virus and firewall software and opens up a backdoor on the pc to
hand over control to the writer of the virus. the virus is thought to have spread
most widely in south america italy spain bulgaria and hungary. the original
zafi virus appeared in april this year. we have seen these hoaxes for several
christmases already and personally i prefer traditional pen and paper cards and
we recommend this to all our clients too said mikko hypponen who heads f-secure
s anti-virus team.'
- text: desailly backs blues revenge trip marcel desailly insists there is no chance
of history repeating itself when chelsea take on barcelona on wednesday. the
french star was part of the chelsea side crushed 5-1 at the nou camp in the champions
league quarter-final second leg in 2000. things will be totally different this
time he told bbc sport. now everyone knows about chelsea and is a little bit
afraid of them. they are one of the major clubs in europe and the pressure will
be on barcelona. chelsea have not played barcelona since that quarter-final tie
five years ago. the blues had looked destined to progress after winning the first
leg at stamford bridge 3-1 courtesy of two goals from tore andre flo and one
by gianfranco zola. but they collapsed in the second leg going down to strikes
from rivaldo (2) luis figo dani and patrick kluivert. former chelsea captain
desailly who is now playing for al-gharafa in qatar says there is no comparison
between that side and the current blues team who are top of the premiership. mentally
they are much stronger even though a lot of their players are young the 36-year-old
said. we made some mistakes at the nou camp in 2000 - a lot of them were individual
mistakes. it would not happen now. this team has a new motivation and a different
mentality. world cup winner desailly saw huge changes during his time at stamford
bridge. he was signed for £4.6m from ac milan in 1998 by ruud gullit and went
on to play under gianluca vialli and claudio ranieri. but the biggest change occurred
when billionaire roman abramovich bought the club in 2003. desailly says the russian
s arrival helped to instil a winning mentality at the club as well as a demand
for success. the whole of chelsea is different now - the chairman the manager
and all the players he said. everything is new and there is a huge determination
to win. since that game in 2000 chelsea have gained more experience in europe
and were very close to reaching the champions league final last season. desailly
is one of the most decorated players in the history of football. he won the 1998
world cup and 2000 european championship with france the champions league in
1993 with marseilles and 1994 with ac milan two serie a titles and the fa cup
in 2000 with chelsea. he is now winding down his career in qatar alongside the
likes of frank lebeouf josep guardiola titi camara gabriel batistuta and christophe
dugarry. so he is full of admiration for two of his colleagues from the great
milan side of the mid-90s who are likely to line up against manchester united
on wednesday - paolo maldini and alessandro costacurta. i m happy that they have
managed to play so long at a high level he said. i made a vow to costacurta
that as long as he plays i will continue to play. and it s amazing that paolo
has managed to play at such a high level for such a long time.

| 1 | <ul><li>'china continues rapid growth china s economy has expanded by a breakneck 9.5% during 2004 faster than predicted and well above 2003 s 9.1%. the news may mean more limits on investment and lending as beijing tries to take the economy off the boil. china has sucked in raw materials and energy to feed its expansion which could have knock-on effects on the rest of the world if it overheats. but officials pointed out that industrial growth had slowed with services providing much of the impetus. growth in industrial output - the main target of government efforts to impose curbs on credit and investments - was 11.5% in 2004 down from 17% the previous year. still consumer prices - at 2.4% - rose faster than in 2004 adding to concern that a sharp rise in producer prices of 7.1% could stoke inflation. and overall investment in fixed assets was still high up 21.3% from the previous year - although some way off the peak of 43% seen in the first quarter of 2004. the result could be higher interest rates. china raised rates by 0.27 percentage points to 5.8% - its first hike in nine years - in october 2004. despite the apparent rebalancing of the economy the overall growth picture remains strong economists said. there is no sign of a slowdown in 2005 said tim congdon economist at ing barings. china s economy is not only gathering speed thanks to domestic demand but also from soaring sales overseas. figures released earlier this year showed exports at a six-year high in 2004 up 35%. part of the impetus comes from the relative cheapness of the yuan china s currency. the government keeps it pegged close to a rate of 8.28 to the us dollar - much to the chagrin of many us lawmakers who blame china for lost jobs and competitiveness. despite urging to ease the peg officials insist they are a long way from ready to make a shift to a more market-set rate. we need a good and feasible plan and formulating such a plan also needs time national bureau of statistics chief li deshui told reuters. those who hope to make a fortune by speculating on a renminbi revaluation will not succeed in making a profit.'</li><li>'retail sales show festive fervour uk retail sales were better than expected in november as christmas shoppers began their seasonal flock to the high street figures show. the office for national statistics (ons) said retail sales rose 0.6% on the month and 6.1% on the year. but the figures along with this week s inflation report could trigger another interest rate rise in the new year. however recent data from the british retail consortium showed a 0.2% slip in high street sales during november. the ons data confounded analyst expectations. many had expected sales to fall slightly in november as shoppers put off buying christmas presents until december. however retailers attempts to draw in the crowds may be behind november s unexpected rise in sales they say. aggressive tactics such as one-day discount sales adopted by stores such as marks & spencer appear to have paid off. price discounting has certainly accounted for much of this because the value of retail sales hasn t grown as much as volumes said investec economist david page. the figures sparked a rally for sterling as the data supported the view that it is too early to assume that base rates have peaked.'</li><li>'uk firm faces venezuelan land row venezuelan authorities have said they will seize land owned by a british company as part of president chavez s agrarian reform programme. officials in cojedes state said on friday that farmland owned by a subsidiary of the vestey group would be taken and used to settle poor farmers. the government is cracking down on so-called latifundios or large rural estates which it says are lying idle. the vestey group said it had not been informed of any planned seizure. the firm whose agroflora subsidiary operates 13 farms in venezuela insisted that it had complied fully with venezuelan law. prosecutors in the south of the country have targeted hato el charcote a beef cattle ranch owned by agroflora. according to reuters they plan to seize 12 900 acres (5 200 hectares) from the 32 000 acre (13 000 hectare) farm. officials claim that agroflora does not possess valid documents proving its ownership of the land in question. they also allege that areas of the ranch are not being used for any form of active production. the legal boundaries did not match up with the actual boundaries and there is surplus state prosecutor alexis ortiz told reuters. as a consequence the government has taken action. controversial reforms passed in 2001 give the government the right to take control of private property if it is declared idle or ownership cannot be traced back to the 19th century. critics say the powers - which president chavez argues are needed to help the country s poorest citizens and develop the venezuelan economy - trample all over private property rights. the vestey group said it had owned the land since 1920 and would co-operate fully with the authorities. but a spokesman added: agroflora is absolutely confident that what it has submitted will demonstrate the legality of its title to the land. the company pointed out that the farm which employs 300 workers provides meat solely for the venezuelan market. last month the government said it had identified more than 500 idle farms and had yet to consider the status of a further 40 000. the authorities said landowners whose titles were in order and whose farms were productive had nothing to fear . under president chavez the venezuelan government has steadily expanded the state s involvement in the country s economy. it recently said all mining contracts involving foreign firms would be examined to ensure they provided sufficient economic benefits to the state.'</li></ul> |

labour by more than 80 000 and the tories by almost 100 000 - they should accept a similar drop in their own numbers. it is all very well saying government departments should be reduced but what about ministers parliament and special advisers he said. shadow leader of the commons oliver heald said: this will be part of our aim to reduce unnecessary and costly interference in people s lives by reducing the size and role of the state . mr howard said the plan would also even out the great unfairness of there being proportionately more scottish and welsh mps at westminster than those from england. the average size of an english constituency was 70 000 people mr howard said. in northern ireland it was just over 66 000 in wales just over 59 000 and in scotland 53 000. the number of welsh mps would be set at an amount that was consistent and fair in terms of representation with the rest of the united kingdom if the assembly was scrapped. mr howard said the changes should be carried out quickly and could even be implemented by the election after next. you have got to have a big bang. we don t want this like the house of lords reform getting to one stage and then not having the next stage.'</li><li>'short attacks us over tsunami aid former cabinet minister clare short has criticised the us-led tsunami aid coalition saying the un should be leading efforts. president bush has announced that an alliance of the us india australia and japan will co-ordinate a humanitarian drive. but ms short said the effect of the parallel coalition would be to undermine the un. she said only the un had the moral authority to lead the relief work. ms short resigned as international development secretary over the iraq war. i think this initiative from america to set up four countries claiming to co-ordinate sounds like yet another attempt to undermine the un when it is the best system we have got and the one that needs building up she said. only really the un can do that job she told bbc radio four s pm programme. it is the only body that has the moral authority. but it can only do it well if it is backed up by the authority of the great powers. ms short said the countries involved could not boast good records on their response to major disasters. the us was very bad at coordinating with anyone and india had its own problems ms short said. i don t know what that is about but it sounds very much i am afraid like the us trying to have a separate operation and not work with the rest of the world through the un system she added.'</li><li>'ministers deny care sums wrong ministers have insisted they are committed to free personal care for the elderly despite research suggesting the cost of the policy was under-estimated. a report by the fraser of allander institute says the decision to push ahead with the flagship policy was based on flawed research. deputy health minister rhona brankin has pledged to study the research. snp holyrood leader nicola sturgeon said the public needed reassurance that the care programme was secure. the rise in costs stems from a series of mistakes in the research used by the care development group of scottish executive experts who prepared the original costings according to findings published in the quarterly economic commentary of strathclyde university s fraser of allander institute. dubious assumptions about improving health expectancy could drive the cost of the policy up by another £130m by 2022 the report warned. it was carried out by husband and wife economist team jim and margaret cuthbert. but ms brankin told bbc radio scotland: we don t think we got our sums wrong. obviously we will examine the findings of this new report along with figures from our own research that we have already commissioned. we will look in great detail at any contribution to this because we need to be sure we can provide free personal care and nursing care for our older people into the future. and we are absolutely committed to doing that. but the scottish national party called on ministers to reassure people that enough funding is in place to support the free personal care policy. ms sturgeon said that while she had no reason to doubt the executive s support for the policy there were questions which needed to be answered and if necessary sums redone. she said: serious concerns have been raised and there are questions which need to be answered by the scottish executive. we need to know that the money is there not just for this year or next year but into the future so that older people and those who are looking forward to older age can rest assured that their personal care needs will be met.'</li></ul> |

when we put in some excellent performances - and we just need to build on that. it was a disappointing start against wales and we might be down on that. but we are certainly not out. we will come out fighting this week. robinson also had words of comfort for 18-year-old newcastle centre mathew tait who made his international debut against wales but has been demoted from the squad to face france. i have had a word with mathew said robinson. i still believe in him. he is an outstanding player but we have gone for olly (barkley) because of the kicking. mathew has just got to take it on the chin keep working hard like he is doing and i m sure he will feature in some of the games.'</li><li>'tevez - an argentine in brazil some 65 years ago bernardo gandulla left boca juniors in his native argentina and headed for brazil. he arrived at the vasco da gama club with considerable prestige - which he failed to live up to. he left an impression but not for reasons he would have wanted. the only thing of note he did was to throw the ball back when it went out of play. even today gandula is the term used in brazil for ballboy. brazilians delighted in the failure of gandulla then and many will delight now if history is repeated. another boca juniors player is coming to brazil. the new maradona - carlos tevez - is joining corinthians for nearly $20m in a strong candidate for the strangest move of the year. corinthians - or the london-based company who have just entered into partnership with them - appear to have paid well above the odds for tevez. it is particularly strange as - until last week - tevez was not even an especially big name in brazil where the argentine championship is not shown. presumably there is some financial logic behind the move. what is harder to work out is why tevez should be interested in heading north rather than across the atlantic. argentina s brightest new star hit top form in august as he spearheaded the charge towards the olympic gold medal. but the subsequent months have not been easy for tevez. boca re-signed martin palermo forcing tevez to vacate his favoured centre forward role. and off the pitch he gave the press plenty to report - atletico madrid gave up on him after declaring his private life to be disorganized. hounded by the press tevez grew tired of his life in buenos aires. so now he says that he is heading for corinthians in search of tranquillity. anyone acquainted with the city of são paulo will relish the nonsense of this declaration. brazil s biggest city is a sprawling ugly restless metropolis. once it shared with buenos aires the same melancholy air of a city of italian immigrants. but that world now lies buried under skyscrapers. the most turbulent place in this frenetic city is sport club corinthians. it is the most passionately supported club in brazil. pelé scored reams of goals against them reasoning that unless he did something special the corinthians fans were capable of winning the game on their own. that passion can also be turned against the team - especially nowadays when the level of urban violence gives a hysterical edge to life in brazil s big cities. corinthians fans have invaded the dressing room or ambushed the team coach to attack the players. tevez then can kiss tranquillity goodbye. he can also say farewell to the copa libertadores south america s champions league. corinthians have not qualified. indeed he will have a long wait for a worthwhile match. next year s brazilian championship only gets underway at the end of april. until then he will have to make do with the foolish são paulo state championship an appalling waste of his talent. there will be matches in small towns on poor pitches with plenty of defenders keen to kick him all the way back to argentina. like so many of the top south american players tevez has the gift of being able to surprise - to feint right and go left to pass when he was expected to dribble to shoot and catch the goalkeeper unawares. but his choice of destination is the biggest surprise of all.'</li></ul> |

my written english is not very good and it takes me longer to think in english and type my message. i sometimes find it difficult to understand the reply. the rnid says the uk is lagging behind other countries which are already making relay services available at the cost of an ordinary phone call. there are no technical or economic reasons for not providing equivalent access to services for deaf people said rnid technology director guido gybels. in the us and australia sign language relay services have already been made universally available at the same cost as a voice call. by failing to provide and fund the video relay service for sign language users the telecommunications sector is effectively discriminating against an already disenfranchised group. ofcom says it has plans to review the services that telecoms companies are obliged to provide early next year. and new technology including the video relay service will be discussed with interested parties in the near future. but a spokesman said its powers were limited by legislation. any proposals to extend existing arrangements to cover new services would be for government to consider he said. mr currington like many of the uk s 70 000 bsl users will be hoping that a way can be found to make a cost-effective service available. the relay service makes phone conversations a pleasure he said. i can show my emotions more easily in bsl in the same way hearing people express emotions through voice calls.'</li><li>'concern over rfid tags consumers are very concerned about the use of radio frequency id (rfid) tags in shops a survey says. more than half of 2 000 people surveyed said they had privacy worries about the tags which can be used to monitor stock on shelves or in warehouses. some consumer groups have expressed concern that the tags could be used to monitor shoppers once they had left shops with their purchases. the survey showed that awareness of tags among consumers in europe was low. the survey of consumers in the uk france germany and the netherlands was carried out by consultancy group capgemini. the firm works on behalf of more than 30 firms who are seeking to promote the growth of rfid technology. the tags are a combination of computer chip and antenna which can be read by a scanner - each item contains a unique identification number. more than half (55%) of the respondents said they were either concerned or very concerned that rfid tags would allow businesses to track consumers via product purchases. fifty nine percent of people said they were worried that rfid tags would allow data to be used more freely by third parties. ard jan vetham capgemini s principal consultant on rfid said the survey showed that retailers needed to inform and educate people about rfid before it would become accepted technology. acceptance of new technologies always has a tipping point at which consumers believe that benefits outweigh concerns. with the right rfid approach and ongoing communication with consumers the industry can reach this point. he said that the survey also showed people would accept rfid if they felt that the technology could mean a reduction in car theft or faster recovery of stolen items. the tags are currently being used at one tesco distribution centre in the uk - the tags allow the rapid inventory of bulk items. they are also in use as a passcard for the m6 toll in the midlands in the uk. mr vetham said the majority of people surveyed (52%) believed that rfid tags could be read from a distance. he said that was a misconception based on a lack of awareness of the technology. at least once consumer group - consumers against supermarket privacy invasion and numbering (caspian) - has claimed that rfid chips could be used to secretly identify people and the things they are carrying or wearing. all kinds of personal belongings including clothes could constantly broadcast messages about their whereabouts and their owners it warned.'</li></ul> |
