Renewals made the most sense - for the text...it was one of my first options and I asked the kudoz to see if there was something "new and specific" I hadn't heard of! But deadlines call.........
Thanks to all ad ka'n.......and Mr. Bernstein, avoid those pits and bogmires!

It's a shame you closed the question so quickly. I'm sure there would have been more suggestions if you had given people some more time.

If it starts with a Kouf (like Kol = voice) I\'m right but if it starts with a \'het (like \'hol = sand) Edith\'s right

perhaps he is planning some innovative projects on which he hopes to earn his "percentages"...

Context is not terribly clear.
Peer comment(s):

agree eileengreen : I like your idea of "innovative projects."

Thank you Eileen
agree liora (X) : Moreover, if she had the context she would have absolutely known that "renewal" is the right word. And if she didn't know than the entire text might have the pits and bogmires ...
