CalPERS’s payments to President Trump’s company. As recently reported in Reuters,1 CalPERS is a significant investor in the CIM Fund III real estate fund. About half of the total $2.37 billion investment in CIM Fund III comes from public pension funds, and CalPERS is by far the largest public pension fund invested in the fund, with an initial commitment estimated at approximately $700 million—well over twice as much as the next largest funds.2 In 2015, CIM Fund III acquired the Trump SoHo hotel in New York, NY. While CIM Fund III has apparently not made a capital call from investors since 2014, CalPERS is reportedly required to pay management and performance fees to CIM Fund III, with the most recent quarterly payments due on or about January 31, 2017 and on or about April 10, 2017.

  • Piquet: the Game and Its Artifacts
    Piquet: the game and its artifacts by Tony Hall iquet may be the oldest card game which is still played today with origins going back to early 16th Century. And yet, the cards and paraphernalia designed for the P game are relatively rare, or misunderstood, compared with those for other games such as whist, bezique and cribbage. Alongside my substantial collections of materials for these other three games1, I have amassed a modest collection of books, markers and boxed sets for Piquet which is the subject of this brief essay. Part of the explanation for the relative ignorance of the game may lie in the description of Piquet by Basil Dalton writing in 1921 when he said: “Enthusiasts would certainly claim that it is the finest card game for two players; but, though a first favourite with all classes in France, and a “craze” with the “Bucks” of the Regency period in England, it has never become popular here in the sense in which “Cribbage” and “Nap” are popular.”2 In 1873, Henry Jones (“Cavendish”) published the first edition of “Cavendish on Whist”. My copy, here, is the 9th edition published by De La Rue in 1899. However, a lot happened between 1873 and 1899. According to subsequent writers on the subject, it was this book from Cavendish which reintroduced and popularised Piquet in Britain, being the first to do so since Hoyle’s Treatise on the subject in 1744. It was Cavendish who encouraged the Portland & Turf Clubs to draw up a Code of Laws which was reproduced in full in his 1873 book as a prelude to his scholarly analysis of the origins of the game and treatise on how to play.
