FIFA names Havelange, Teixeira in kickbacks case

GENEVA (AP) ? Former FIFA president Joao Havelange and one-time Brazilian soccer leader Ricardo Teixeira received millions of dollars in a World Cup kickbacks scandal, soccer's world governing body confirmed on Wednesday.

FIFA finally published a Swiss court dossier which detailed that Teixeira received at $13 million from 1992-97 in payments from World Cup marketing partner ISL. The Swiss-based agency's collapse into bankruptcy in 2001 sparked a criminal probe and exposed the routine practice of buying influence from top sports officials.

The 41-page document showed Havelange received a payment of about $1 million in 1997, one year before he was succeeded as FIFA president by Sepp Blatter.

Payments "attributed" to accounts connected to the two Brazilians totaled almost $22 million from 1992-2000.

The scale of kickbacks tied to World Cup broadcasting and marketing deals was revealed in a report by a prosecutor in the Swiss canton (state) of Zug who investigated Havelange and Teixeira for "embezzlement, or alternatively disloyal management."

The document had been blocked from publication since June 2010, soon after prosecutors, FIFA and two of the most powerful men in world soccer reached a settlement deal to close the criminal investigation.

FIFA, Havelange and Teixeira repaid $6.1 million to end prosecutor Thomas Hildbrand's probe on condition that their identities remain secret.

Teixeira, who repaid $2.5 million, denied criminal conduct. Havelange, who paid $500,000, "did not comment on the accusation of criminal conduct," the report said.

Before agreeing to repay $2.5 million, FIFA made its "consent conditional" upon dropping proceedings against its former president and then-serving member of its executive committee, the report showed.

FIFA released the document hours after Switzerland's Supreme Court threw out an appeal by Havelange and Teixeira to suppress the dossier, and announced its ruling that media organizations should receive details of the ISL case.

"FIFA is pleased that the ISL non-prosecution order can now be made public," soccer's world governing body said in a statement.

Still, Hildbrand's report criticized FIFA as "a deficient organization in its enterprise" prior to ISL's collapse.

Havelange and his former son-in-law Teixeira "unlawfully used assets entrusted to (them) for (their) own enrichment several times. FIFA suffered an equivalent loss."

After helping broker the anonymity deal, FIFA was also a party to earlier appeals to block publication until dropping out of the case last December.

Calls Wednesday to the Brazilian Football Confederation, which Teixeira headed for 23 years until March, rang unanswered.

Blatter ? who was Havelange's secretary general for 17 years ? said in October that he wanted to release the ISL dossier despite his organization seeking to deny reporters access to its contents at the same time.

Though Blatter has not been accused of accepting unethical payments, the ISL affair has clouded much of his 14-year FIFA presidency. Seeking closure has become central in his promised mission to improve FIFA's image and governance.

Blatter was not specifically named in the redacted document, though he appeared to be represented several times as "P1".

Hildbrand's report said it was "not questioned" that FIFA personnel knew about kickback payments.

The prosecutor wrote of FIFA witnesses confirming that a $1 million payment to Havelange "was mistakenly transferred to a FIFA account.

"Not only the CFO (chief financial officer) had knowledge of this, but also, among others, P1 would also have known about it," the report said.

Havelange was FIFA president for 24 years and remains honorary president. The 96-year-old Brazilian has been treated extensively in a Rio de Janeiro hospital this year for a bacterial infection.

He resigned his 48-year IOC membership in December, citing health reasons, days before the Olympic body was due to sanction him following its own investigation into wrongdoing connected to ISL.

Teixeira resigned this year as head of Brazil's soccer federation and the 2014 World Cup organizing committee, and gave up his FIFA executive committee seat after 18 years, citing unspecified health and personal reasons.

The ISL scandal stemmed from alleged payments of tens of millions of dollars to sports officials made by the agency before its collapse with debts of $300 million. Commercial bribery was not a crime in Switzerland at the time.

ISL was created in the 1970s and helped fuel the boom in sports marketing, while also working closely with the International Olympic Committee.

Hildbrand's report said the agency funneled money through Liechtenstein to pay commissions to officials "favored in order to promote sports policies and economic goals."

Six former ISL executives stood trial in 2008 and were cleared of charges relating to fraud.

In court evidence, FIFA executive committee member Nicolas Leoz, a Paraguayan who still heads the South American soccer confederation, was identified for receiving two ISL payments totaling $130,000 in 2000.

Symphony of Eternity (for Android)

If you liked 1980s and early 1990s RPGs or early Final Fantasy games, you'll love Symphony of Eternity ($2.99). There's a clear plot: Two adventurers meet the princess of a fallen kingdom, and all three go hunting for a mythical wish-granting weapon to set everything right.?

Graphics are very simple, with three scales: a very zoomed-out world map, a very 1980s-style town layout, and combat sequences with larger monsters. Combat, as in all the Kemco games I've played, is turn-based, although there's an "auto-fight" button to get you through more tedious battles. You can control the characters through an on-screen control pad or, alternately, a simple "click to go here" touch interface.

Unlike in other Kemco games (this is critical), in Symphony, you can see all the wandering monsters on the map, so you can ambush or avoid them. This is a heck of a lot better than in other games where random encounters appear out of nowhere. Character advancement is also just complex enough to be fun. Characters gain various skills through different class-based "tablets," which contain lists of skills and spells you acquire by winning experience points. You can also add and subtract merit points from various abilities at will. While you can't always pick your party, you can pick your tablet- and merit-point combinations, and that keeps things fresh.

Yes, I know I'm giving an Editors' Choice to a year-old game, but it's the best Android RPG I've seen so far.?Both my kid and I enjoyed Symphony of Eternity immensely, and I'd recommend it to anyone who loves old-school fantasy gaming. I can't wait for the sequel, Symphony of the Origin, due out later this year.

UK hotel ditching paper bibles for Kindles, Rocky Raccoon to get acquainted with the benefits of e-ink

British hotel ditching paper bibles for Kindles, Rocky Raccoon getting acquainted with the benefits of eink

Maybe papercuts aren't a part of the creator's master plan, after all -- not at the Hotel Indigo's Newcastle location, at least, which is ditching the standard hardcover bible in favor of a Kindle edition. The hotel's GM says the move, which brings Amazon's e-reader to its 148 rooms, is keeping with the city's rich publishing history. The device will come pre-loaded with the bible, with other religious texts available for the download. Customers can also download non-religious texts, which will be added to their bill. The move is currently being assessed under a trial basis, which will be revisited on July 16th. No word on whether the promotion will be expanded to other hotels in the chain.
