Empire State Development Corp. must approve transfer of $1.2B state incentive ALBANY ? New York taxpayers are set to become major financial partners with Advanced Micro Devices Inc., a struggling California company, and a hugely wealthy Middle East emirate in the biggest project in state history.The deal will result in the state's partners organizing in the Cayman Islands and awarding a $3 million bonus to Hector Ruiz, the former AMD chairman who structured the agreement, according to information not disclosed in a round of news conferences last week, Yet, in the thick contract between the state and the company, AMD, a one-paragraph term suddenly rises to great importance for the $4.6 billion chip manufacturing plant to be built in MALTA. Under a covenant called "No Assignment," AMD agreed two years ago that it could not transfer the deal it entered into to get a $1.2 billion incentive package from the state ? unless the state's economic development arm, Empire State Development Corp., gave its approval. AMD lawyers say they've begun formal negotiations with ESDC to get the needed authorization. The goal is to hand off the public financing agreement to a new entity called Foundry Co. as soon as possible. Foundry will be made up of AMD and its new investment partners, the government of oil-rich Abu Dhabi. The deal involves purchase of AMD's computer plants by a new organization in Abu Dhabi called Advanced Technology Investment Co ...

In his talk, Sonny Scales discussed the meaning of the Maltese Cross, an emblem adopted by firefighters centuries ago. He explained that it originated with the Knights of St. John, who were based on the island of MALTA, but went off to the Holy Land on the Crusades. “There they met with fire as a weapon of war,” he said. “When the Crusaders approached city walls, glass bombs filled with burning naptha were thrown at them. Many of them were burned to death, but others were saved from fiery death by their fellow knights. These were th ...
