Ex-model loses bid to stay in Koch condo at Four Seasons
A Housing Court jury found Catherine de Castelbajac a licensee not a tenant of yachtsman William Koch, ordering her to vacate Koch's Four Seasons Boston condo within 30 days. The nine day trial revealed their romance, lavish gifts, and separate legal actions including a palimony suit. Koch, 55, said the verdict reflects common sense against self enrichment.

Budget talks resume with little progress in Washington
White House chief of staff Leon Panetta calls the session a good start after two hours of talks with 13 negotiators. Progress remains limited as no spending plan or concrete proposals emerged before December 15 funding expires. Republicans seek a $200 billion seven year tax cut and block grants for Medicaid while Democrats resist deep social program cuts.
