| CitiMortgage to cut 100 jobs
CitiMortgage says it will cut 100 mortgage servicing employees in Des Moines to reduce expenses and streamline operations. The jobs will be eliminated in June, the company said Thursday.
Citigroup, the business's New York-based parent, said the cuts are a result of a review announced in April that would slash $10.4 billion in expenses from 2007 to 2009. The company said it expected to eliminate 17,000 jobs in all. .
NHL announces games in Europe - sort of
This kind of falls into the general category of: if they want the Players' Association to be a true business partner, then they have to include us in discussions about these matters at the earliest stages," said Kelly. "We shouldn't read about it in the press and we shouldn't find about it after the fact. "Last night for example, we were asked if it was ok for them to announce Prague and Stockholm. The response was, 'Look guys, you know we have a lot of details to work out. Travel, promotional issues, NHLPA involvement, accommodations, the schedule, etc. So there's still lots of details to work out but if you want to announce it generally, that's fine.' "And I think the announcement (for Prague and Stockholm) fell along those lines. The Victoria Cup? That was a bit of a surprise.

The U.N. Mismanagement Program
His actions led the U.S. Mission to the United Nations to request access to UNDP audits and other information related to the organization's operations in North Korea. The UNDP resisted U.S. inquiries, and the dispute eventually was reported in the press. North Korea refused to cooperate with a request from the UNDP Executive Board that it comply with an inquiry into the suspect activities, which ultimately led to the suspension of UNDP activities in North Korea in March 2007.[2] A U.N. audit later confirmed the information provided by Shkurtaj. It also detailed several examples of UNDP mismanagement, including: the staffing of UNDP's office with North Korean nationals chosen by the North Korean regime, the “skimming" of the salary payments to those office workers by the North Korean government, and the use of convertible currencies (such as the U.S.

"I wear the all-white ones a few times and give them away to someone at church." He makes sure to mix up the ones he wears in order to keep all of his pairs looking like new. His roommates are two teammates, fellow sophomores Nican Robinson and Jamal Boykin - and Christopher lucked out to get the largest of the three rooms.
