You and all Americans know only too well that since September 2008 our economy has undergone such unprecedented change that most U.S. citizens could not have even begun to fathom it at the time. As a result, we have also seen change in our national political leadership. The question now facing the nation is will the economic change place constraints on the new Administration’s and Congressional legislative and regulatory agenda, or will the legislative and regulatory agenda dominate the economy? Four issues are likely to dominate the economic and political “change” debate in 2009 — the economy and tax policy, labor policy, health- care, and credit card interchange reform. The key to the out- come on these important national issues may largely be controlled by the Senate, where it looks as if 57 Democrats plus two Independents maintain con- trol over 41 Republicans. Political observers have predicted the ability of the Democratic leadership to advance its agenda will rest on the ability to achieve the 60 votes necessary to end a fi libuster in the Senate, by holding moderate or centrist Democrats and Independents in their camp while swaying a few moderate Republicans to vote with them. But last year’s Senate votes on the auto bailout illustrated how diffi cult this may be to do on major issues, especially when 19 Republicans and 16 Democrats that are up for re-election already have their eyes on the 2010 elections. Tom Wenning, Executive Vice President & General Counsel, N.G.A. Economy and Tax Policy The economy and tax policy is at the top of President Obama’s agenda. President Bush on Oct. 3 signed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, which authorized $700 billion of government funds to be expended to purchase fi nancial institution assets, such as residential or commercial mortgages and securi- ties. As of mid-December over $350 billion of the $700 billion had been spent. Congressional Democratic leaders retained control over the remaining $350 billion in preparation for President Obama’s Secretary of Treasury to take control. In addi- tion, Democratic leaders have laid the groundwork for a two-year stimulus package that ranges from $600 billion to $1 trillion, including $100 billion for state budget shortfalls, $175 billion for highway and other infrastructure projects, and $300 billion for tax relief. In December N.G.A. communicated its recommendations for a stimulus package to President Obama and Congressional leaders on behalf of entrepreneurial independent community based retailers and wholesalers: The best economical stimulus for entrepre- The estate tax exemption of $3.5 million neurial businesses is to decrease, not increase, should be increased to at least $5 million, the 1corporate tax rates, or the taxes on individu- 3rates reduced, and the exemption extended als that operate their businesses as subchapter S beyond the year 2010. corporations or other pass through entities.

Our neighborhood was an example of the buiLt environment of a working population being recog- nized; since then, we’ve created one of the most affLuent neighborhoods in CoLumbus. She asked board members to reflect on the irony of that situation: without necessariLy intending to, German ViLLage has gone from a working-class, immigrant-fiLLed space to one that protects, cre- ates and perpetuates affLuence.

  • WELCOME to Historic Schiller Park! We Are So Pleased That You Want to Learn More About Our Sculpture Exhibit
    WELCOME to historic Schiller Park! We are so pleased that you want to learn more about our sculpture exhibit. It is titled “Suspension: Balancing Art, Nature, and Culture” with works by the Polish artist Jerzy Kedziora. It may be helpful to think for a moment about the art of sculpture in general. Sculptures are three-dimensional objects. They have height, width, and depth. They cast shadows. Sculptures occupy space, just as you occupy space. To see a sculpture in full, you will have to walk around the work, looking at all sides as you move around it. In general, sculptures are created through additive or subtractive processes—materials are somehow built up or somehow removed. Sculptures may also be cast from molds, meaning that multiple examples of the same sculpture may exist. Sculptures can be made from a wide variety of materials, including stone, wood, metal, plastic, textiles, and more. They may or may not be painted. Sculptures may be figurative or abstract, small or large, hand-crafted or industrially-produced. Jerrzy Kedziora’s works are beautiful works of hand-crafted art, but they are also amazing feats of balance! You may want to study the figures to see if you can figure out where he has put the weight to keep them suspended in the positions he designed. Jerzy says he isn’t quite sure how he does it. He said many engineers have offered to calculate a formula for him, but they have never been successful – he just has to feel the piece and play with it on a line suspended in the back yard of his studio to get a feel for the balance.

Staff and Guests: Gary Seman and Shiloh Todorov. The meeting was called to order at 6:05 p.m. by Vice President Drake. Public Participation Civic Relations Chair Nelson Genshaft reported on the Third Street Project’s engineering study and OHM’s preliminary cost estimates for all of the ‘parts’ of the project. Mr. Genshaft noted that on March 31st a public comment program will be held in the Warner Fest Hall so that everyone in the community can see all of the proposed preservation improvements to include streets, sidewalks, drainage, curbs, overhead utilities, lighting, landscaping and streetscape amenities. The project will be a multi-year, multi-phased endeavor so that it will not be as disruptive to quality-of-life issues in the Village. Mr. Genshaft further reported on other activities of the Civic Relations committee including monitoring the Recreation and Parks and City Streets Departments effort to bring the Jaeger/Deshler entry to the Recreation Center parking area into ADA compliance (requiring the entry to be relocated) and the further allocation of funds remaining in the UIRF grant program for repair of brick streets and curbs in the Village.
