$176.98 Million Allocated to Projects Under Ministry of ...
Several projects, which fall under the armpit of the Ministry of Agriculture and Lands' Rural Development (Survey, Land Administration, Settlement and Land Reform) programme, will benefit from an allocation of $176.98 million during this fiscal year. This provision is contained in the 2007/08 Estimates of Expenditure, which was tabled in the House of Representatives yesterday (March 29) by Finance and Planning Minister, Dr. Omar Davies.
Of the total, $164.48 million will go towards the Land Administration and Management Programme (LAMP), which ceased its relationship with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), when the loan agreement, which was jointly funded by the Government of Jamaica and the IDB, ended on February 6, 2007.

Riverside museum hosting Tiffany exhibit

Tiffany, 1916 Let's get something straight. Those so-called Tiffany lamps you see in the Royal Falconer British Pub in Redlands, the Sassy Steer in Colton, Lamps Plus, Target and a friend's kitchen?

Parrott, an expert on Louis Comfort Tiffany.
Ontario needs to produce green SUVs if it wants to lead auto ...
Ken Ogilvie, executive director of Pollution Probe, said the world is waking up to the reality of global warming and Ontario has to act. The province should focus tax dollars on developing alternative fuels, hybrid technology and impose fuel-efficiency standards rather than defend big cars, Ogilvie said. “If you resist it, you just slow up change," he said. “Slowing up change has really negative future consequences. The world is changing and you have to change with it. We should be a leader, not a follower in this." New Democrat Peter Tabuns said McGuinty is just paying lip service to greening Ontario's auto sector. If the Liberals were serious, Tabuns said, the province would be putting cash into researching greener technology and would bring in emission and fuel-efficiency standards.
