Speedway champion Michael Pickens loses appeal to race for New Zealand
FACEBOOK/Michael Pickens Michael Pickens has shared a video of the incident to social media. Speedway champion Michael Pickens has been unsuccessful in his bid to overturn a ban for making physical contact with an official. Pickens fronted a Speedway New Zealand (SNZ) appeal hearing on Thursday but he has since revealed the original fixed 22-day stand down will apply. The Auckland driver admitted making contact with a track official at Western Springs Speedway on November 1 but says it was a tap of the shoulder to alert him that his $150,000 midget was on fire. The complaint was made by an official but not the one Pickens made contact with. In fact, the official Pickens touched made a submission to SNZ's hearing in support of the champion driver.

Post election, expect next trigger for market share shift from NBFCs to private banks: Saurabh Mukherjea
There is a risk that the PE multiples could come off but as long as the earnings engine sustains. you will make healthy money, said Saurabh Mukherjea, Founder, Marcellus Investment Managers, in an interview with ETNOW. Edited excerpts: We do not talk about real estate stocks but a lot of real estate stocks have not done well. DLF is 20% up, Kolte Patil is at record high, Oberoi is not looking bad. For someone who has patience for three years, does it make sense to buy the top two-three real estate names? I am not sure about residential real estate but I agree that commercial real estate in India is a very viable asset class. Clearly, there is still big shortage of high quality office space in the big cities. There is a good reason to believe that well-run commercial real estate play can generate yields of say 8-9-10%. Commercial real estate is an asset class whose time has not yet come in India and it is worth looking out for that. I am not so sure on residential real estate. I have … [Read more...] about Post election, expect next trigger for market share shift from NBFCs to private banks: Saurabh Mukherjea
Hong Kong phooey
As movie pilgrimage sites go, the Romance Hotel, on Cumberland Road in Hong Kong's Kowloon Tong district, is not a tourist-friendly destination. To get past the Sikh doorman, you will need to be sober, over 18, fluent in Cantonese, and accompanied by a member of the opposite sex. This two-storey villa was once the home of kung-fu superstar Bruce Lee, but exactly 30 years after his death, you could hardly describe it as a shrine. What used to be a light, spacious interior, furnished with Emmanuelle-style wicker chairs and Arco lamps, is now a warren of cramped rooms, each equipped with hot and cold flasks of water, a TV playing Chinese porn, a 1970s-style double bed with a radio built into the velour headboard, and a roll of toilet paper considerately placed by the bedside. Lee's Japanese garden out front is now a concrete car park, complete with a movable screen to conceal visitors' licence plates. The good news is that rooms are available at the reduced rate of HK$200 (£15) for … [Read more...] about Hong Kong phooey
