Dear Joe,

Would it be possible for you to come in one  day next week at about 3:00 p.m. to go over your discovery responses?   Alternatively, you could come in two days at 4:00 p.m.  On Thursday, I  leave early for my son's soccer practice.  Perhaps Tuesday and Friday would  be good for you???

I have reviewed the Transformer and Turbine Letter Agreements I received
today.

Transformer Letter

2(a) & 3(e):  why is there usage of "ABB et al." when ABB is defined?  Also,
the "certain agreement" referred to in both sections is NOT between ENA and
ABB.  It's now between E-Next Generation LLC as purchaser, ENA as agent for
purchaser, and ABB, as amended.

3(a):  have two sets of "(i), (ii)" in para.  It's also unclear what this
para actually says.

4:  definition of "Term" should go after (b) no?

Turbine Letter

3(a):  Para is clearer than in Transformer but still difficult to understand.

3(f):  Don't understand this para. and what happens with the final payment
due to GE.

3(g):  the "certain agreement" is not between GE and ENA.  See first comment
under Transformer Letter.  There is also the usage of "et al." after GE.

4:  same comment as in Transformer Letter.

I haven't had a chance to review the LLC Agreement yet.

With all our reporting changing to London Office and now it appears some
restructure of risk and the broadening of Sally's role, what are we going to
do for the second report for our new risk manager, Justin Den Hertog - he has
taken over from Alan.

He reports to me locally, but functionally he would traditionally have
reported to you on behalf of Sally's area. I assume this has now moved with
the rest of us and would therefore be either James New or Mike Jordan in
London? Can you please advise me via return email as we are working on our

Bank of England warns on trading practices
IFR - December 15, 2001

The Bank of England (BoE) last week sounded warnings about the increasing
use of credit derivatives to transfer credit risk and counterparty risk
management practices.  Its half-yearly financial stability review examined
the transfer of credit risk between the banking and insurance sectors. It
noted that markets for risk transfer are, in principle, beneficial because
they allow greater dispersion of risk.

However, the BoE said that it is important for regulators to track whether
or not concentrations of risk might decline in some places only to re-emerge
in others. In particular it cited unfunded risk transfer as being difficult
to monitor. "If flows of risk are not accompanied by flows of funds
(insurance or derivatives), they become harder to track in aggregate," the
report said.

The review discussed possible areas where seemingly transferred credit risk
by banks could revert to the sector. It said that some techniques used in
deals such as synthetic securitisations can leave banks with residual risks,
whether contractual or implicit.  "The credit default swap market has not
really been tested under a severe downside scenario and if the worst happens
and the whole house falls down people may well find that none of their risk
has actually been transferred," said one analyst who was sympathetic to the
BoE's line.

Credit derivatives dealers are more sanguine, however. "Often you have no
option but to use credit derivatives to back up transactions. They can be
used to get round regulatory and sourcing difficulties and some times they
are just quicker and cheaper than the alternatives," said one dealer.  The
BoE also said that even in the instances where banks have genuinely
transferred credit risk, there is a question as to whether the appetite of
the risk takers will be sustained. "General insurers, reinsurers and life
insurers might reduce their asset allocation to credit risk if losses were
to increase materially during the current economic slowdown," said the
report.

The banks active in the credit derivatives market are confident that their
risk transfer techniques work, but admit that losses for insurance company
sellers of protection could threaten the continuing growth of the market.
The BoE also questioned the extent to which the banking system can change
from being the 'originator and holder' to 'originator and distributor' of
credit risk, saying that this may be limited by the close link between
credit and provision of liquidity.

"Credit risk is being transferred from banks to insurance companies. But if
credit losses crystallise in stressed market conditions, insurance companies
may need to have recourse to the banking system in order to meet their
obligations under credit risk transfer instruments," the report said.
Elsewhere in its review, the BoE examined counterparty risk management and
found that disclosure practice is still not sufficient to facilitate
effective management. It said that banks have growing exposure to non-bank
participants in over-the-counter derivatives and other capital markets, such
as insurance companies, energy companies and large multinationals.

The recommendations of the official and private sector reports on
counterparty risk management following the LTCM crisis were addressed
particularly to banks' hedge fund exposure. However, the Enron case shows
that many apply more widely, particularly the need for counterparties to
make adequate financial disclosure.

Vulture firms begin to set their sights on troubled Argentina
Financial Times - December 19, 2001

Edward Bozaan says he made money in Russia and Thailand soon after they
devalued their currencies in the late 1990s. Now, the New York-based fund
manager is considering buying assets in Argentina, Bloomberg reports.

"I buy into extraordinarily depressed markets, and Argentina is definitely
on my screen right now," says the 44-year old president of Waterford
Partners, a fund management company whose promotional material contains
pictures of tanks and explosions. "Its markets are really scraping bottom."

As the country nears default on most of its Dollars 132bn debt and struggles
to avert devaluation, Mr Bozaan says he and others who specialise in
investing in countries in crisis are assessing whether prices have reached
bottom after the Merval stock index fell to 10-year lows and bonds
plummeted.

Mr Bozaan's fund grew 114 per cent in 1999, helped by his purchase of
Russian companies such as Vimpelcom Communications after the country
defaulted on Dollars 40bn of debt and devalued the rouble. In the first nine
months of this year the fund lost 17.9 per cent, compared with 26.6 per cent
drop in the MSCI Emerging Market Index.

Domingo Cavallo, Argentine economy minister, blamed foreign funds such as Mr
Bozaan's for the country's troubles, saying they drove down stock and bond
values and pushed up interest rates. That forced the government last week to
limit deposit withdrawals to prevent a collapse of the banking system, Mr
Cavallo said.

"They are the same (funds) that got rich in Russia in 1998 and who attacked
Ecuador and hurt the Ecuadorean people," Mr Cavallo said in a speech. "The
same funds have been focused on Argentina in 2001."

While many describe companies such as Waterford as vulture funds, Mr Bozaan
says he is not responsible for driving down Argentine markets. "Some see my
business as morbid, but it wasn't me who brought down the prices," says Mr
Bozaan. "I see value in markets after they've been battered."

In fact, any fund that buys Argentine securities would help the economy,
says Charles Cassel, who helps manage Dollars 450m in emerging market assets
at Standard Asset Management. "Vulture funds are a beneficiary to the
economy in that they provide an inflow of capital at a time when it
desperately needs it," he says.

Mr Bozaan uses studies of past financial crises elsewhere as a guide to when
prices may recover. "I strongly believe Argentina will become one of the
best- performing markets in the world some day and that's when we'll make
our money," says Mr Bozaan, who typically acquires shares that have dropped
60 per cent to 70 per cent in a market where the benchmark index has lost 50
per cent.

By Mr Bozaan's rule, he should already be investing in Argentina. Since
January 1, the Merval has dropped by half and leading stocks such as Grupo
Financiera Galicia, a bank holding company, have fallen more than two
thirds. The benchmark floating rate bond due in 2005 gained a second day to
yield about 60 per cent. The Merval, now trading at levels last seen in
March 1991, rose 1.5 per cent.

"There are many corporate stocks and bonds that would be extremely
interesting once uncertainty over the government's restructuring and future
is cleared up," says Richard Segal, director of research at Exotix, ICAP's
London-based debt brokerage.

Mr Bozaan says he has not yet invested because he believes the government
may devalue the peso, which was fixed at par with the US dollar in 1991 and
is a key reason, economists say, why Argentine industry is unable to compete
with cheaper imports.

"There's definitely more downside to come," says Mr Bozaan. "I want to see
some resolution in what the government will do. If Argentina devalues after
I've bought, the fund could lose a lot of money."  Mr Bozaan says his
interest in Argentina has grown as the country suffers an increase in public
protests against rising unemployment and cuts in government spending on
salaries, pensions and health.

"I bought after China's Tianenmen Square massacre, Peru's Shining Path
crisis and Thailand's riots," he says. "Argentina's not quite on that scale,
but its situation isn't good." Among shares Mr Bozaan may buy are Grupo
Financiera Galicia, Telecom Argentina Stet-France Telecom and Perez Companc,
an oil company.

Group Galicia trades at about 2.8 times past earnings compared with Banco
Bradesco, a Brazilian bank that trades at 8.1 times earnings, and Citigroup
of the US, which trades at 17 times. Telecom Argentina trades at 14 times
earnings against 27 times for Brasil Telecom. Perez Companc trades at 7.2
times earnings compared with BP's 13 per cent.  Mr Segal recommends buying
bank and utility bonds. "Grupo Galicia and Banco Rio look like good buys; so
do some of the telecom and electricity companies," he says.

Telefonica bids to shield at-risk Brazil interests
Financial Times - December 19, 2001
By Leslie Crawford and Krishna Guha

Telefonica of Spain, the largest foreign investor in Latin America, has used
derivatives to hedge against a possible devaluation in Argentina and any
risk of that country's financial crisis spilling over into neighbouring
Brazil.  Cesar Alierta, Telefonica chairman, told the Financial Times: "The
crisis in Argentina is not a Latin American crisis. We are confident that
Brazil has decoupled from Argentina's problems."

Telefonica has more than Euros 35bn (Dollars 31.6bn) invested in Latin
America. The region provides 41 per cent of its revenues, which totalled
Euros 23bn in the first nine months of the year, and almost 45 per cent of
the company's cash flow.  Telefonica would not disclose the size of its
hedging operations, but said its derivatives portfolio is significant.
Executives said: "We are not immune to the effects of a devaluation, but we
will be less affected than the market thinks."

There should be no need to write down the value of its assets in the event
of a devaluation of the Argentine peso, which has been pegged to the dollar
for a decade. Telefonica said it has budgeted for a rise in unpaid telephone
bills as the crisis in Argentina bites. Operating revenues at TASA,
Telefonica's Argentine subsidiary, were down 5 per cent in the first nine
months of the year.  Mr Alierta, however, is bullish about prospects in
Brazil, where Telefonica has invested Dollars 17bn.

Telefonica owns Telesp, which has 12m clients and is the largest fixed-line
operator in the prosperous industrial state of Sao Paulo. Early next year it
hopes to pool its mobile interests in several Brazilian states with Portugal
Telecom's big mobile operation in Sao Paulo.  "With 1,200 lines per
employee, Telesp is probably the most efficient operator in the world," Mr
Alierta said. He is particularly enthusiastic about the potential for
broadband communications in Brazil."

Armey Would Split Derivatives Issue From Stalled Bankruptcy Reform Bill
BNA - December 19, 2001

Despite opposition from House Judiciary Committee leadership, House Majority
Leader Richard Armey (R-Texas) told BNA Dec. 18 he wants the House to take
up contract netting legislation apart from the stalled bankruptcy reform
bill (H.R. 333) to which it is attached.

"I think it is time to move netting," Armey said, using another name for the
derivatives bill. "They [members of the Judiciary Committee], see netting as
a very important kind of a driving engine within their bill. And I
appreciate their point of view, but I think this is something that needs to
get completed, and I have talked to the committee about it repeatedly."

House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) is against
consideration of financial derivatives legislation apart from bankruptcy
reform legislation, which has been stuck in conference for months, a
Sensenbrenner aide told BNA Dec. 14.

Contract netting language intended to reduce uncertainty and limit systemic
risk in derivatives transactions was added to the bankruptcy bill at a time
when Republican leadership was optimistic the legislation could pass this
year and that its inclusion could help speed the process, House staff told
BNA.

"Hindsight is 20-20," a House Republican aide told BNA. "Who knew the
[bankruptcy] bill would be grounded again?"

Sensenbrenner and House Financial Services Committee Chairman Michael Oxley
(R-Ohio) met with Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan Dec. 13 to
discuss the importance of legislation addressing banks' use of financial
derivatives (239 DER A-28, 12/14/01).

Oxley strongly supports passing derivatives legislation this year, according
to his spokeswoman, especially in light of the recent collapse of Enron
Corp., which traded heavily in derivatives.

Even if a derivatives bill fails to pass Congress again this year, its
separate consideration would indicate just what poor odds Republican
leadership places on bankruptcy reform passing in the foreseeable future.

Presumably, if the House took up a derivatives bill, it would vote on an
independent contract netting bill (H.R. 3211) that Rep. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.)
introduced on Nov. 1. Its language is identical to language contained in
numerous contract netting bills offered as far back as 1998, when then-House
Banking Committee Chairman James Leach (R-Iowa) championed the issue.

Currently, no companion bill exists in the Senate. Although Democrats,
particularly members of the House-Senate conference on H.R. 333 who oppose
bankruptcy reform, are likely to support passage of a contract netting bill,
it is unclear whether key Republicans would.

A spokeswoman for Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), a member of the bankruptcy
reform conference, told BNA that the senator is likely to oppose separating
contract netting from H.R. 333.

Derivatives are financial contracts used by parties wishing to hedge the
risk of fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, or indexes.
Their value is based on the performance of an underlying asset. Seven large
commercial banks account for about 96 percent of all derivatives, the most
common of which is an interest rate contract.

at the Hotel Okura, Amsterdam, 19-21 February 2001
 <http://www.eyeforenergy.com/weather/>

Over 70% of European companies

Today's business has become all about risk and how to mitigate it. Weather derivatives have become one of the key tools industries as wide ranging as utilities, airlines, agriculture have at hand to offset risks associated with temperature and precipitation.

So how do you take advantage of this new market in weather trading that has emerged in Europe? What key issues do you have to be aware of to mitigate your operational and trading risks through weather? Amsterdam will be the place for traders, marketers, exchanges, brokers, and executives powering the weather trading industry to network with each other.

Speakers at this event will include:

Aquila, Systeia Capital Management, Mirant, LIFFE, Element Re, Entergy-Koch Trading, Risk Management Solutions, Centrica, Utilicorp, weatherXchange, Aon Capital Markets and many more <http://193.128.182.100:8081/ss?click&eyeforenergy&3c459583>...

UBS Warburg estimates that profits
from European power trading alone

"Carbon credits represent a significant asset that companies ignore at their peril"
Jonathan Johns, Ernst & Young

Emission trading options are ripe for the picking - but how can you make sure you're ready to profit from GHG? Let's face it - you really can't afford not to be, especially as the World Bank has estimated demand in the international GHG trading system to be in the order of US$20 billion per annum by 2010.

Eyeforenergy is delighted to bring you this event which will focus on how you can best seize this exciting new market opportunity.

Speakers at this event will include:

BP, European Commission, Shell, Amerada Hess, Powergen, RMS, Fortum, Natsource, RMC Group, EcoSecurities, Rolls Royce, KfW, Point Carbon, IETA, TransAlta, UK Dept of Environment, and many more <http://193.128.182.100:8081/ss?click&eyeforenergy&3c45bbc4>...

I have reviewed the full report and talked with the Global representative who
prepared it and I have concerns about the state of the easement/license
activity and am not inclined to provide the report to you for use as a

protect Northern Border in this regard.  I will forward to you when
available.

Mark -

Last week Dale Neuner was requested to add four new commodities to on-line
trading and Mike Robison and Steve Elliott have reviewed and approved the
long descriptions for benzene, mixed xylene, toluene and methanol.   We have
also finalized the form of GTC's for EPC (who trades benzene, xylene and
toluene) and are forwarding them to you for further distribution.

Note:  GTC's for Enron Clean Fuels Company (who trades methanol) will follow
on Wednesday.

Thanks.

Hi Rick,

The revised document that I sent to Robert is the same as what you saw, with the following additions:

The bullet point saying that NYMEX transactions are okay has been deleted based on Sarah's conversation with Adam Wenner.
The Enron affiliates with market-based rates are listed in the two footnotes.
Several "plain English" edits from Paul have been incorporated into the first page.

Sorry this went out so late.  I'll give you a call in the morning.

Sue


Attached is the regulatory filing summary.


Ken,

Soon you will receive (or perhaps have just received) a letter from a fellow
MU alumnus, Roger Vasey.  In the letter, Roger outlines a business
opportunity that he believes has a potential synergy with Enron.

While I am not familiar with this business opportunity, I am very familiar
with Roger.  He is now semi-retired following a very successful business
career.  He remains a special advisor to the chairman of Merrill Lynch &
Co., Inc., in New York.  Previously, he was executive VP and global director
of all debt markets underwriting, sales, and trading for the firm.

Since the early 1990s, Roger has been actively involved with MU,
specifically with the College of Business.  He has served as chair of both
the Strategic Development Board and the Davenport Society.  Roger also was a
member of the steering committee for the college's very successful capital
campaign.  I hold him in the highest regard and feel fortunate that he, like
you, has chosen to contribute to his undergraduate alma mater in various
significant ways.

I hope you will consider the opportunity described in Roger's letter.  I
know he must think it has a great deal of potential if he decided to present
it to you.

Finally, thanks very much for your holiday card and the donation
opportunity, which benefitted Boys & Girls Club of Columbia in my case.
Season's greetings,

Bruce Walker

Subject: Enterprise risk management

Dear Vince,
?
Thanks for your call the other day regarding  EPRM's upcoming enterprise risk
management conference. We seem to be making  progress and are pulling
together some interesting subjects for inclusion this  year. I am currently
at a stage where there are plenty of possible sessions and  over the next
week I will be able to decide of which will stay and which will  go.
?
I have attached a file that gives an indication  of the topics that have been
identified so far. Although I have bullet points  for the sessions I would
first like to identify interested parties and then work  with them to develop
a session that reflects their particular expertise and  experience. I also
think that by continuously developing the points we can make  greater
allowances for continuity between each participant.
?
Based on our discussion I would be extremely  interested in inviting you to
lead a session on the main conference. You seemed  to have an interesting
view on operational risk and the particular challenges  that are presented
within the energy industry. This session will run on  Thursday, November
16th. The title is reasonably broad at this stage and any  suggestions are
welcome.
?
Your overall views on the current conference content is also  welcome and if
you feel that another session is more suited to your work do not  hesitate to
contact me. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
?
Yours sincerely,
?

I don't have anything specific to weather, I have material from recent

To Mr. Ken Lay,

I'm writing to urge you to donate the millions of dollars you made from selling Enron stock before the company declared bankruptcy to funds, such as Enron Employee Transition Fund and REACH, that benefit the company's employees, who lost their retirement savings, and provide relief to low-income consumers in California, who can't afford to pay their energy bills.  Enron and you made millions out of the pocketbooks of California consumers and from the efforts of your employees.

Indeed, while you netted well over a $100 million, many of Enron's employees were financially devastated when the company declared bankruptcy and their retirement plans were wiped out.  And Enron made an astronomical profit during the California energy crisis last year.  As a result, there are thousands of consumers who are unable to pay their basic energy bills and the largest utility in the state is bankrupt.

The New York Times reported that you sold $101 million worth of Enron stock while aggressively urging the company's employees to keep buying it.  Please donate this money to the funds set up to help repair the lives of those Americans hurt by Enron's underhanded dealings.

Sincerely,

Ron Golan


Vince,

Before I contact the London staff about next Wednesday's meeting, I was
wondering if we could move it up a little bit.  The reason is that by 2pm in
Houston it is 8pm in London and I thought it might be difficult to round up
the crew in London at that time.  Please let me know if we have plans to
change the time.

Thanks,

Eric


I'd like to inquire about the Dow Jones index price database currently being
maintained by the Fundamentals group. It's come to my attention - by virtue
of the fact that I receive the Dow Jones data each afternoon - that several
people are interested in having access to those figures. I've had requests
from mid-marketing, trading, and scheduling, and am working with IT to put
the NP-15 and SP-15 data online. Cara Semperger, in particular, relies on the
index prices in order to run one of her reports.

I'm wondering if it  would be possible to give these people access to your
database, or maybe if your group would benefit from the data I receive. Your
spreadsheet looks like a compilation of the documents I receive from Dow
Jones, and one might be more useful for an individual or group than the
other. I don't have a preference either way - I'm more than happy to compile
the reports in a separate folder. Please let me know what works best for you.
(I sit in the middle of the room between Tracy Ngo and Val Sabo.)

Thanks,
Kate

Subject: Re: Re[2]: HD Case: Proposed  Plan

All,

I was thinking along similar lines - HD should moderate growth in  the
coming year - only invest in opening 2-3 new stores in locations with  the
highest estimated ROI, or perhaps those that are?the most  complete
(since there is some construction in progress already) to reduce  any
incremental expense.?
Focus instead on improving operating  efficiencies which have been
steadily deteriorating to increase investor  confidence/stock price.
Then expand via another public offering at a later  date.?

Sarah had asked in class to look?into whether HD was  going to be
able to make payroll in the coming year. I tried to do this  assuming no
expansion (freeze all construction in progress). Using Mark's
spreadsheet and backing out the new store acquisition
costs, and  reducing inventories that would have been part of the
new stores, this  still leaves a cash need from financing
of $25.8 mil in order to meet  operational needs. So they?are going to
need to tap into credit lines  for at least this amount regardless.

I will be in class tonight. If you have a conf call, could we do it  at
7:30? If we do, please send across details before 5PM, or else
you  can just leave me a voice mail on my cell at 916 600 1245
and I'll retrieve  it during break...

Excellent points and I was thinking along  similar lines. Questions I have:

How do you know that LT debt gives  more advantageous terms? We have no yield
curve info nor do we know their  credit rating.
At what point does their borrowing exceed their  covenents?
Is our strategy to not raise the required $66million or to  stop/slow PPE
spending so that the $66m is not  needed?

Hi folks:

Since we have only one page, the write up for  number 4 will have to be very
brief. Before writing it, though, I wanted  to offer a few bullets
regarding what angle we might take, and let folks  respond, comment,
counter, etc. before writing it up. I'll clean and beef  up once we've
agreed to the approach we'd like to take to question #4.  Finally, I can
work from my office on this this evening, which means that  I can use the
conference call capability of my office phone to patch  everyone in if we'd
like to do a conference call. If that's what folks  would like to do, I'd
prefer to do the call at around 7 PM. Just let me  know.

Best,
Jeff

The question for #4 is:

Stock price  is down 23%, significant debt has already been tapped to
support massive  growth and covenants on that debt restrict taking on a lot
more  debt.

What should HD do w.r.t. current operations and future growth  strategy?
In the near term focus less on growth and more on getting  margins and
EBIT growth back in line with results from previous years.  (Management's
Letter to Shareholders alludes to this, but it's difficult  to determine
whether management is just paying lip service to the need to  capitalize on
the growth spurt and grown earnings, or continue on the  growth effort.)

With respect to funding future (more moderate  growth), the company
does have some room to increase long-term debt  (e.g., current ratio for
1986 = 2.26). It seems that HD would get better  terms and have increased
flexibility by issuing additional debt rather  than relying on lines of
credit. As such, HD ought to look those sources  of funding and fill in any
"funding gaps" with funds from the line of  credit.

Given the significant drop in stock price, HD is likely  better off in
the near term 1) moderating growth, 2) improving  performance to generate
cash internally, and 3) using long-term debt  issuance to provide the funds
needed. Once performance and stock price  improves, then HD should consider
a stock issuance.

How can  company improve operating performance?
Reduce selling, store operating  expenses and pre-opening expenses
Improve receivables turnover
Improve  inventory turnover
Improve per store/sales
Consider closing  poor-performing stores
All of which will improve margins

Should  company change its strategy? If so how?
Shift from meteoric growth to  moderate, targeted growth, and focus on
generating positive cash flow  from operations
Focus on improving performance at existing stores;  specifically focus on
controlling costs and asset turnover and  productivity
Consider another debt issuance rather than rely extensively  on credit
line in order to decrease cost of funds and increase  flexibilit

Robert, let's deliver 1,000 day to Cove Point off CGAS for May.  That should
give us 812 day injected for May.

This may change after I chat with Laura at Cove Point.  I knew we could
deliver 4,000 day for April but she never told me what we could do for May.

Subject:	results of football pool

Hello Everyone,

	This week again saw some upsets, both in college and pro games, however, the overall results were better this week than the past few weeks. In the college games, it was split between the Oklahoma and Nebraska game as far as who got it right, the Auburn/Arkansas game and UCLA/Stanford game were both missed by most people. Quite a few people also missed the Oregon/Washington St. game.
In the pros, the New Orleans/St.Louis game was missed by just about everyone, everyone missed the NY Giants/Washington game, the Minnesota/Tampa Bay game was missed by quite a few people, and the Arizona/Dallas game was also missed by about half the people.

	Through all that, Rob Benson is currently in the lead with only 5 games missed. Rob also picked Pittsburgh tonight. Still alive for the money with 6 games missed are Joe Quenet and Jeff Miller, who both picked Tennessee tonight. There were also 3 other people who have 6 wrong, however, they all chose Pittsburgh tonight. Therefore, if Pittsburgh wins tonight, then Rob will win outright. If Tennessee wins tonight, then it will come down to total points. Rob chose 38 points, Joe has 48 points and Jeff has 34 points. Therefore Jeff will win with a Tennessee victory and 35 or fewer total points, 36 he will tie with Rob. Rob will also win if Tennessee wins and the total points are from 37-42 and he will also tie with Joe at 43 points. Joe will win if Tennessee wins and there is 44 or more total points scored, 43 he will split with Rob.

	We raised the entry fee to $3 per entry this week and will continue that for the rest of the season unless enough people want it back down to $2. We had 34 entries this weekend, therefore the prize money is $102 !!  There is no Thursday night game this upcoming week, therefore this coming week's picks will be due on Friday. Following is each person who played this week with the amount of games they missed.

Mark:. We're slogging through all of this--it was apretty brutle weekend but progress is being made.  There are still open issues on both the NNG and TW credit facilities--but the goal is to have the TW credit agreement signed sometime today and get it funded by Wednesday, while NNG will probably close later in the week -- likely Friday--once the Dynegy issues are melded with those of the bank.

Friday off.

Pls let me know asap.

Also, still hoping to go fishing the weekend of October 20th if anyone

Attached is a list of accomplishment for 2000.


I'd like to know how we purchased the Katz.  Was that outside our budget, and
in Ken's dining room budget?  Mike and I will get together and address the
points you bring up below.  Looking forward to our meeting.

Regards.....Jeff

Subject: Presentation to Skilling etc.

Mike,
As you know, I have arranged for a meeting on December 6th among the Art
Committee and Jeff Skilling.  I feel that you should run this meeting.  I
would like to accomplish the following:

1) Discuss our Vision for the collection
2) Introduce Ned and Barry
3) Describe art locations in/outside the buildings
4) Discuss progress made to date and timetable
5) Discuss the process:  To what extent Jeff wants to be part of the
decision process going forward (i.e. is he comfortable approving our Vision
and having us implement? ...Or does he want veto power on each piece?)  The
latter would be cumbersome, and I personally would prefer the former, but we
definitely need clarification on this before we can proceed.
Questions right now for you:
1)   Would you like to invite Ken to join us in the meeting?
2) Ned cannot make it that day (first available day is Dec. 18th) so should
we postpone?  Barry is a "maybe".  Remember they are there to help us shape
a high quality collection and to make sure that we do not make any
purchasing "mistakes".
3) I have a first draft of the presentation, when can we meet to discuss it?
Following on our last meeting with Gensler, I am assembling a detailed list
of potential art locations by floor (including dimensions when possible) so
that we have a Master from which to work.  I will run it by Bonnie McCloud
and Bill Donovan to assure its accuracy.
Lastly, I have asked Bill Viola (the video artist for the work we are
considering) to come down to Houston to meet with us and with Gensler to
discuss where his piece might fit in the new building.  I have also placed a
call  Rob and Gregg at Pelli to let them know that I would like for them to
meet with a wonderful up and coming artist (Olafur Eliasson) who would like
to propose a "water piece" for the circular drive.  You will recall that
Pelli would very much like to have a water piece there.  Eliasson is very
well respected and innovative: He's created waterfalls that flow "up" and
wonderful minimal installation pieces that are quite beautiful.  I've asked
his gallery to let us know if he could meet with Pelli in Connecticut or in
Houston on their next trip.
Lastly, Enron has purchased the Alex Katz painting that is currently hanging
in 50M.  Please call me so I can brief you on how that happened.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Lea
