Uni Watch » Uni Watch Profiles: P.K. Cummings: "At the recent Uni Watch party in San Francisco, I met reader Al Cummings, who mentioned that his daughter works as a colorist for a major sportswear company. I said I’d be very interested in interviewing her, so he promised to point her in my direction. Sure enough, a few days later I got an e-mail from P.K. Cummings.

P.K. (which is what everyone calls her — it’s not an alias or anything like that) turned out to be quite a character. As you’ll see, she’s not exactly shy with her opinions. But you’ll also see that she’s a highly skilled professional with a lot of specialized technical expertise. That combination makes for a very, very good interview."

NY governor ready to approve casino

NY governor ready to approve casino: "NY governor ready to approve casino
6 February 2007

MONTICELLO, New York – As reported by the Pocono Record: 'New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer is close to approving a $600-million Monticello casino, his spokeswoman said.

''We are optimistic that there will be something in a number of days,' she said of the governor taking a historic step of approving the St. Regis Mohawk casino at Monticello Gaming and Raceway.

'In December, authorities gave environmental approval. Spitzer must concur by letter with those findings for the Mohawks and their partner, Empire Resorts, to go forward.

'If Spitzer signs, it would be a hurdle that no other Catskill casino has cleared, paving the way for final approval by the Secretary of the Interior, Dirk Kempthorne.

'Only three times before have governors allowed state land to be taken into trust for an off-reservation casino — none of them were in New York.

'…The governor and the Mohawks still have to work out a compact that specifies, among other things, a revenue sharing deal…'"
