Braves place Moylan on DL, recall Carlyle
2008-04-16 16:01:00 Two weeks into the season, the Atlana Braves' two best relief pitchers are on the disabled list with balky right elbows. And there's some concern that one of them, setup man Peter Moylan, could be out quite a while according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He joined closer Rafael Soriano on the DL Tuesday, and Moylan is scheduled to see renowned orthopedist Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham on Wednesday for a second opinion. Moylan was diagnosed with a strained elbow, a general term that could cover a broad range of ailments. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam done in Atlanta showed irregularities that could indicate a serious injury.Journeyman right-hander Buddy Carlyle was recalled from Class AAA Richmond to take Moylan's roster spot. Carlyle will likely start Friday against the Dodgers, with Glavine moving back a day to Saturday if his hamstring is ready.

Jobs at risk if Carlyle Group takeover of Virgin Media goes ahead, broadcas
2007-07-03 11:58:00 Broadcasting trade union Bectu has warned of impending job losses at Virgin Media following speculation in the press that it is the target of a private equity buyout. The BBC reports that private-equity firm Carlyle Group has made an offer to purchase cable TV, mobile phone and broadband company Virgin Media for in excess of £10bn. Carlyle Group appeared before the House of Commons Treasury Committee last month as part of its investigation into whether the private equity industry ought to be more transparent and tightly regulated. Bectu said it was concerned by the growing trend for UK employers to be bought out by private equity bids which often left companies with large debts, and subsequently major job losses. Nigel Mason, Bectu national official, said: ?Clearly our members in Virgin will be disturbed by these rumours. There has been considerable debate of late about the role of private equity buyouts in the UK economy, and recent history warns us that these immensely...

Heads of Carlyle Group, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Permira defend large ta
2007-06-21 15:54:00 Four UK private equity chiefs attempted to defend their large tax breaks to MPs yesterday. The heads of the Carlyle Group, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR), 3i, and Permira, are behind some of the biggest UK takeover deals, including that of Alliance Boots, the AA and Birds Eye. They appeared before the Treasury Select Committee as part of an ongoing investigation into whether the industry needs to be more transparent and tightly regulated. Current tax breaks see private equity firms pay just 10% tax on gains made on companies they invest in. ?Private equity is a force for good,? KKR managing partner Dominic Murphy told the committee, while Robert Easton, managing director at Carlyle Group, said: ?My own experience in private equity in this country has only been positive. It?s been positive for the companies I?ve been involved with.? All four businessmen, however, welcomed a review of controversial UK tax rule, which were established a decade ago to increase investment.
