Let me tell you a true story. My son use to always pick the shoes he thought looked the most fashionable to buy. About a week later he would finally let us know that his shoes REALLY hurt his feet... but they were his right size so we would make him wear them until he "broke them in." Last time we brought him shoe shopping, we covered his eyes and made him try on 5 different pairs of shoes. He had to walk around in them (holding onto his father and I) and jump around in place. After that experiment we came home with a size 8.5 NB 4500 shoe.
New Balance recently sent us a pair of their newly release 7500 which is "a sleek running shoe designed for the competitive athlete seeking style and function". I am not an athlete, but my 10 year old son has recently started getting fit. Part of his routine is walking and running on about a mile trail with us. He wore them to school the second day we had them. He came out to the car and told me, "Mom, my friend's wouldn't stop bugging me about my shoes. They thought they were really cool and wanted to know where I got them from." So, they look cool and his feet didn't hurt walking around and playing in gym. They are a pair of shoes that doesn't hurt his feet when they walk. He didn't need to break them in to his feet either, they were comfortable from day one.
Children run around so much each day. During the summer, M is always running around. He plays kickball, softball and baseball with his friends. It is awful when they don't have the right shoes and their little feet suffer because of it. The technology will ensure that your child's feet will stay comfortable while they are romping around.
I asked M what his favorite part of the shoe was and he told me "I think the heel part makes me run faster." Well, they haven't improved his time, but his feet don't hurt when he is done running or walking with us. He told me that they made him spring more. That would be a good asset for a runner. My sister spent a lot more money on a different shoe because she was told it would absorb the shock and help her "spring" more.
My favorite part of the shoe is the mesh that helps the feet breath. Plus, his toes get to move around a little bit more when he is sitting.
I would recommend these shoes to any adult to use for yourself. They are also great for children. I also recommend them for any child who is overweight. They help cut down on the daily stress of the feet. And for any parents with an overweight child knows that it doesn't hurt to reward children with cool shoes to get them playing outside more.
The following is from New Balance's Press Release "Inspired by the NB ZIP™ line of running shoes, the 7500 features the lightweight NPulse™ technology in the heel for a responsive, cushioned ride. NB Pulse™ is a cushioning system that integrates a support structure with air filled pillars that compress and absorb shock on impact. The overlasted forefoot provides support and an aggressive, athletic look. A high abrasion-resistant Ndurance rubber outsole provides long-wearing durability and a synthetic/mesh upper ensures breathability."

A Cruel Intentions Musical Celebrates the '90s (and Sarah Michelle Gellar Showed Up)
Constantine Rousouli and Molly McCook
Photo by Abel Armas
The crowd at opening night of Rockwell's Cruel Intentions: The Completely Unauthorized Musical Parody partied like it was 1999.
Before curtain, a girl in twin Björk buns bopped to Sixpence None the Richer, and everyone tried to stay calm with original star Sarah Michelle Gellar seated in the front row in a sharp-shouldered black blazer, looking like her wicked character, Kathryn, who paired it with a bustier and a cocaine-filled crucifix. (Gellar took Instagram video from the show.)
In the era of trigger warnings, Cruel Intentions' bed-hopping, double-crossing script feels even more deliciously vile. Director Lindsey Rosin doesn't soften the edges, not even lead cad Sebastian's (Constantine Rousouli) casual homophobic slurs.
Constantine Rousouli and Katie Stevens
Photo by Abel Armas
Rosin assumes — correctly — that the packed room knows every line, and speeds through the plot in shorthand, having the cast spout a few memorable lines and then burst into a relevant-enough hit '90s song. Kathryn (a knockout Katie Stevens) belts "You Oughta Know" at her ex, and coos "Genie in a Bottle" to cocktease. As the set is merely a bare strip, the effect is a combo of karaoke, runway show and spin-the-bottle.
Spencer Strong Smith and Shelley Regner are hilarious as, respectively, the closeted jock and gawky Cecile, and when Regner leaned into Stevens for that MTV Movie Award–winning girl-on-girl kiss, Gellar pulled out her phone and spun around for a grinning selfie.
Rockwell, 1714 N. Vermont Ave., Los Feliz; through April 25. (323) 669-1550, rockwell-la.com.

This course will analyze Gibbon's analysis, then embark upon an in-depth study of names, events, and movements, and end with an examination of Rome's fall and the legitimacy of comparisons to current events.

Auto enthusiasts know that a variety of special features is built into each Oldsmobile, and understand that only top quality replacement Silhouette parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. When your Oldsmobile Silhouette left the factory, it was destined for a driver who wants long-lasting quality in their automobile. While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for Oldsmobile vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to repair your car or truck. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class when it comes to all the vehicles currently being driven today.
There are some parts so ubiquitous on cars today that it is hard to believe they were once only optional equipment on luxury vehicles. One of these items is the Oldsmobile Silhouette tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). When you notice a small exclamation mark inside a flat tire illuminated on your dash board, that is your tire pressure monitoring system sensor informing you that pressure is low. That light should turn off after filling your tires with air; but if it doesn't, then you'll need to install all new Oldsmobile Silhouette TPMS sensors.
At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents here with enough expertise to help you select the correct Oldsmobile Silhouette part for your project or repair. Don't let a Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor TPMS repair spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best repair parts. Bring your Silhouette back to life with the highest quality new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. When it comes to Oldsmobile Silhouette Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor TPMS parts, you can find them for 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

Boy Racers and Influencing their Behaviour Dr Karen Lumsden Department of Social Sciences Email: firstname.lastname@example.com@lboro.ac.uk Twitter: @karenlumsden2
Overview Ethnographic research with 'boy racer' culture in city of Aberdeen, Scotland. Interested in both: The boy racer culture (rituals, participation, gender, class) The response of society (police, politicians, media, local community) Background to Aberdeen's 'Bouley Bashers' Police and local authority response The myth of the 'boy racer' Lessons learned for RSOs from police response to the drivers in Aberdeen: Use of ASB legislation Education
Background: Aberdeen's 'Bouley Bashers' Car culture at Aberdeen's Beach Boulevard since late 1960s Urban regeneration from 1990s onwards Community concern Proliferation of local and national media articles on Aberdeen's 'boy racers' (peaked 2004/5)
Media Representation ' For more than 30 years they've been at it – speeding recklessly up and down the Beach Boulevard. In that time the leisure complex has grown massively and become a magnet for families. But that hasn't stopped the madness of the boy racers – or led to the authorities driving them off the roads' (Press & Journal 2002)
Police and Local Authority Response Police operations CCTV Redesigned road layout Education via road safety events Grampian Police 'Drivers' Group' Provision of alternative spaces (i.e. 'park and ride' car parks) ASB legislation: seizure of vehicles and dispersal orders
The Myth of the 'Boy Racer' Importance of car modification for individual and collective identity Driving performances allow individuals to gain celebrity status Growing number of girls participate although still largely male, working- class subculture Not all youths, also older drivers Challenges myths around what a 'boy racer' is: > Majority took pride in driving skills and cars
The 'Drivers' Group' and Self-Policing Grampian Police 'Drivers' Group' successful as a way of information sharing between police/community and drivers The drivers also engaged in their own informal policing re. 'how to behave' in the culture Informal rules and expectations which members were expected to adhere to (i.e. parking on 'trammers' and not beside the flats, not speeding/racing)
Lessons for RSOs: ASB Powers In case of Aberdeen's boy racers, ASB powers were only successful in the short term Long term implications – stigmatized group and impacted negatively on police-driver relations Tension between successful consensual management of young drivers.. And enforcement-led approaches reflected via use of ASB legislation More education needed on regulations and best-practice for car modification
Lessons for RSOs: Driver Education Focus on education and interaction via community policing – must extend to roads policing 'Drivers' Group' particularly successful as a way of information sharing between police and drivers Recognition of the myth of the 'boy racer' or street racer – not always young drivers…
What does the term 'boy racer' mean? 'Well it's stereotypical. Isn't it? I guess by their definition I typically am [a 'boy racer'] but then what does the term mean? I am, but I don't really race. In fact, not that I don't really race, I never have raced! Most people who come down here aren't racers either. It's just a few idiots who spoil it for the rest of us.' (Interview with Robert)

A quick documentary style shoot for a drug and alcohol rehab program. Fun little shoot with some fun people and beautiful views.
Shot on: Canon C100 - with Canon L glass
A fun shoot in Bangor Maine. Biggest challenge on this shoot was a lack of prep due to a very short time table. I flew in the day before the shoot and hit the ground running!
Shot on: Canon C300MK2 - with Leica Summicron C's
Just wrapped on the second spot in a campaign for this client. This was a one day commercial shoot filmed in downtown Madison. The location was tricky and needed a good amount of work to get to the light high key look the client was after.
A huge shout out to Scott Kunkel for the BTS Stills instagram.com/_scotify
Shot on: Canon C300MK2 - Oddesey 7Q with Zeiss CP2's
This was a short interview based client testimonial project I shot last month in Manhattan. For this shoot equipment was delivered by Adorama Camera Rental to location directly across from the empire state building.
The client wanted to maintain a fairly flat soft look across all the interviewees so I chose to key with a 6x6 half grid with three 1x1 Bi Color Astras through a 2x3 silk. This gave the talent a flattering eye light and very soft universally beautiful quality. I backlit with a Mole 200 LED Fresnel. Filled in with bounce cards.
Shot on: Canon C100MK2 with Canon L Glass and Rokinon Cine DS
Another project in the works! This was day one of the shoot with Bravebird Productions. This shoot has some interesting challenges for a DP but nothing that can't be solved with a little outside the box thinking.
Shot on: Black Magic Ursa Mini and Sony A7SII with Zeiss ZE Primes
Day 2 to come!
Documentary style shoot for OneLogin. Great time working with an awesome crew and the well kept equipment from Littlegiantlighting.

This was a great opportunity to work with new friends and produce a commercial for a fantastic client based out of San Fransisco. The production took place at the Madison Public Library.

This was a fun little shoot for some new social advertising spots for Duffy's Rehab based out of Calistoga CA.
A documentary style shoot for a client in SF and Mountain view. Working with some folks once again from Little Giant Lighting and Grip.
This was an awesome project we had the opportunity to produce for Skyline Eco Adventures. Conservation for the land and sea is a passion of the company and core to their brand. We got to visit several different conservation groups on the island and learn what each are doing to help preserve the beautiful island of Maui. Filming each individual was an amazing experience.
Working in tropical climates is very tricky. Proper rain protection, some good lens solution, and wipes are key.
This was a low budget personal project for the Stephen and Stephanie Booth! Rockin photographers with amazing talent.
A commercial shoot to promote Usertesting's new mobile gaming screen recording platform. This project was challenging due to the small size of the studio and short time frame but turned out well.

Pensonic Holdings Berhad (MYX: 9997) founded by Dato Chew Weng Khak (Chinese: 周荣吉), started business as a small shop in Penang selling electrical appliances trading under the name of Keat Radio Co. in 1965 as a sole proprietor. In 1982, Chew started the Pensonic brand name to produce locally manufactured electrical appliances in order to ensure long term growth of his company, and the brand name "Pensonic" was invented by combining "Pen" and "sonic" to mean "Sound of Penang".[citation needed] It turns out that Pensonic has developed and grown into one of the most successful Malaysian brands in household appliances.[citation needed] It was the first Malaysian brand to have received the Brand Promotion Grant from MITI of Malaysian in 2005 and it has also received a numbers of excellence design awards.[citation needed]
However, there is a dispute between Pensonic brand and Panasonic brand whereby the latter feels that the brand name of Pensonic is too similar to Panasonic and may have capitalized on the market share of Panasonic. The dispute was eventually brought to the courts of law in several countries.
In Singapore, Panasonic had won an injunction in Singapore in November 2008 against Pensonic after it has been operating for over 20 years.[1] The Pensonic name is considered by Panasonic as one of many knockoff names of Panasonic of Japan.
In Sri Lanka, Pensonic has squashed the opposition of Panasonic for its trade mark registration in January 2009.[2] The judgment observed that Pensonic was registered in Malaysia in 1984 and the same was registered in Japan (the home country of Panasonic) and many countries in the world without the objection of Panasonic. This means that in these countries the two brands in fact historically co-exist.
The group has its own R&D, assembling and manufacturing facilities in Malaysia. Pensonic products are now exported to the Middle East and other ASEAN countries.[citation needed]

- Sarah Margaret Dawson's A Confederate Girl's Diary
Sarah Margaret Dawson was a young woman from Louisiana who spent her early years of adulthood during the Civil War. Born in 1842, she lived in New Orleans until 1850 when her family moved to Baton Rouge, the state capital. Despite receiving perhaps one year of formal education, Sarah embarked on a course of self study, learning French and reading a wide range of English literature.
The war years between 1861 to 1863 were difficult ones for the Morgans. They suffered the loss of four family members during those years. Henry Morgan, Sarah's favorite brother, was killed in a duel in the spring of 1861, and her father, Thomas, died several months later. Three other brothers joined the Confederacy: of these, Gibbes and George were killed in 1863, while the youngest, James, climbed the ranks in the Confederate Navy.
Sarah, her mother and her sisters moved back and forth between Baton Rouge and their country home. In August 1862 Union troops looted their Baton Rouge home and they were forced to abandon it. For a while they depended on the help of friends but eventually to moved to New Orleans. All the while Sarah made entries into A Confederate Girl's Diary.
Sarah Dawson was a keen observer of the war and how it affected her family, friends and city. Here are some excerpts from the fall of Baton Rouge in August 1862:
Wagons, drays — everything that can be driven or rolled — were loaded with the bales and taken a few squares back to burn on the commons. Negroes were running around, cutting them open, piling them up, and setting them afire. All were as busy as though their salvation depended on disappointing the Yankees. Later Charlie sent for us to come to the river and see him fire a flatboat loaded with the precious material for which the Yankees are risking their bodies and souls.
All devices, signs, and flags of the Confederacy shall be suppressed." So says Picayune Butler. Good. I devote all my red, white, and blue silk to the manufacture of Confederate flags. As soon as one is confiscated, I make another, until my ribbon is exhausted, when I will sport a duster emblazoned in high colors, "Hurra! for the Bonny blue flag!
I notice none of them dare set their feet on terra firma, except the officer who has now called three times on the Mayor, and who is said to tremble visibly as he walks the streets. Last evening came the demand: the town must be surrendered immediately; the Federal flag Must be raised; they would grant us the same terms they granted New Orleans. Jolly terms those were! The answer was worthy of a Southerner. It was, "The town was defenseless; if we had cannon, there were not men enough to resist;…
O! if I was only a man! Then I could don the breeches, and slay them with a will! If some few Southern women were in the ranks, they could set the men an example they would not blush to follow. Pshaw! there are no women here! We are all men!
After bitterly taking an oath of allegiance to the United States, the Morgans remained until the end of the war with Sarah's oldest brother, Judge Philip Hickey Morgan (referred to as "Brother" in her diary) who was a supporter of the Union.
From March 1862 until April 1865, Dawson faithfully recorded her thoughts and experiences of the war. Her early entries, which deal primarily with Baton Rouge society, give way to detailed accounts of her family's daily fears about living in Baton Rouge as the fighting encroaches upon the city.
Several times Dawson describes her family chaotically fleeing their home on foot, bringing only what they could carry with them. She also includes accounts of slaves faithfully rescuing their masters' children and household goods without the opportunity to salvage anything of their own.
Although a strong supporter of the Confederacy, Dawson does not hesitate to record the kindness among members of the Federal guard, her disapproval of women's secessionist banter, and her despair over the South's future.
The Diary 's final pages are filled with tragedy as Dawson recounts the anguish of losing her two brothers, the fall of the Confederacy, and the shooting of Abraham Lincoln.
In 1872 the Morgans moved to Columbia, South Carolina, where Sarah began writing editorials for the Charleston News & Courier under the pen name "Mr. Fowler." A staunch supporter of women's equality, she often expressed her feminist views in both her editorials and her diary.
In 1874 Sarah married the newspaper's editor, an Englishman and former Confederate officer, Francis Warrington Dawson. The couple had three children together. Francis Dawson died in 1889, prompting Sarah to join their son, Warrington Dawson, in Paris, where she lived until her death in 1909.
Sarah's son published the first four volumes of A Confederate Girl's Diary in 1913. It has remained in publication since then.
Here's the link to the diary.

(HealthDay)—Skin diseases affect quality of life differently across distinct aspects of the EuroQoL five dimension questionnaire (EQ5D), according to a study published online Dec. 29 in the British Journal of Dermatology.
The skin is the outer covering of the body. In humans, it is the largest organ of the integumentary system made up of multiple layers of mesodermal tissues, and guards the underlying muscles, bones, ligaments and internal organs. Skin of a different nature exists in amphibians, reptiles, birds. Human skin is not unlike that of most other mammals except that it is not protected by a pelt and appears hairless though in fact nearly all human skin is covered with hair follicles. The adjective cutaneous literally means "of the skin" (from Latin cutis, skin).
Because it interfaces with the environment, skin plays a key role in protecting (the body) against pathogens and excessive water loss. Its other functions are insulation, temperature regulation, sensation, synthesis of vitamin D, and the protection of vitamin B folates. Severely damaged skin will try to heal by forming scar tissue. This is often discolored and depigmented.
In humans, skin pigmentation varies among populations, and skin type can range from dry to oily. Such skin variety provides a rich and diverse habit for bacteria which number roughly a 1000 species from 19 phyla.

Prentice Hall The Linux Programmers Toolbox
eBook (PDF), 649 Pages
Price: $243.77
Linux has no shortage of tools. Many are inherited from Unix, with cryptic twoletter names that conjure up images of developers trying to preserve space on a punch card. Happily, those days are long gone, but the legacy remains. Many of those old tools are still quite useful. Most are highly specialized. Each may do only one thing but does it very well. Highly specialized tools often have many options that can make them intimidating to use. Consider the first time you used grep and learned what a regular expression was. Perhaps you haven't mastered regular expression syntax yet (don't worry; no one else has, either). That's not important, because you don't need to be a master of regular expressions to put grep to good use

Europeans who have made a study of commercial life in the United States maintain that the fundamental difference in methods between the American and the European is one of mental attitude. With the European the tendency is to adhere to, or at most to modify, the old; with the American, to attempt what is altogether new. The European engineer prides himself on the fact that his machinery is so well made and so carefully preserved that it will last a generation; the American engineer on the other hand does not hesitate to relegate to the scrap-heap the most elaborate piece of machinery the moment a more efficient piece is invented to take its place. That this progressive attitude is not confined to mechanics and commerce in America is evidenced by the observations recently made in the Practitioner, by a London surgeon, Mr. W. Arbuthnot Lane of Guy's Hospital. In contrasting the skepticism of British surgeons with the attitude of the surgeons of the United States and Canada he says: "They are in advance of us in many ways in their methods of investigation. They attack any new problem very thoroughly and do their utmost to verify every fact by personal observation and they determine whether there is any truth in it or not. Trouble or expense affords no obstacle to their thirst for knowledge. They are not satisfied to accept unreservedly any statement or observation, and least of all, any opinion, and they are only prepared to receive it when they themselves have either seen it or are satisfied as to its accuracy. They have no respect for so-called authority and part with innumerable surgical creeds which continue to control us as readily as their business men 'scrap' machinery the moment a better mechanism is devised. It is this attitude of the American surgeon that is exerting such a magnificent influence on the surgery of that country and is, in my opinion, making them the most progressive surgical body in the world." Mr. Lane of course has been in the United States and evidently speaks from observation.

The implementation of performance based planning in Queensland under the integrated planning act 1997 : an evaluation of perceptions and planning schemes
Frew, Travis Graeme (2011) The implementation of performance based planning in Queensland under the integrated planning act 1997 : an evaluation of perceptions and planning schemes. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.
Travis Frew Thesis
Performance based planning is a form of planning regulation that is not well understood and the theoretical advantages of this type of planning are rarely achieved in practice. Normatively, this type of regulation relies on performance standards that are quantifiable and technically based which are designed to manage the effects of development, where performance standards provide certainty in respect of the level of performance and the means of achievement is flexible. Few empirical studies have attempted to examine how performance based planning has been conceptualised and implemented in practice. Existing literature is predominately anecdotal and consultant based (Baker et al. 2006) and has not sought to quantitatively examine how land use has been managed or determine how context influences implementation. The Integrated Planning Act 1997 (IPA) operated as Queensland's principal planning legislation between March 1998 and December 2009. The IPA prevented Local Governments from prohibiting development or use and the term zone was absent from the legislation. While the IPA did not use the term performance based planning, the system is widely considered to be performance based in practice (e.g. Baker et al. 2006; Steele 2009a, 2009b). However, the degree to which the IPA and the planning system in Queensland is performance based is debated (e.g. Yearbury 1998; England 2004). Four research questions guided the research framework using Queensland as the case study. The questions sought to: determine if there is a common understanding of performance based planning; identify how performance based planning was expressed under the IPA; understand how performance based planning was implemented in plans; and explore the experiences of participants in the planning system. The research developed a performance adoption spectrum. The spectrum describes how performance based planning is implemented, ranging between pure and hybrid interpretations. An ex-post evaluation of seventeen IPA plans sought to determine plan performativity within the conceptual spectrum. Land use was examined from the procedural dimension of performance (Assessment Tables) and the substantive dimension of performance (Codes). A documentary analysis and forty one interviews supplemented the research. The analytical framework considered how context influenced performance based planning, including whether: the location of the local government affected land use management techniques; temporal variation in implementation exists; plan-making guidelines affected implementation; different perceptions of the concept exist; this type of planning applies to a range of spatial scales. Outcomes were viewed as the medium for determining the acceptability of development in Queensland, a significant departure from pure approaches found in the United States. Interviews highlighted the absence of plan-making direction in the IPA, which contributed to the confusion about the intended direction of the planning system and the myth that the IPA would guarantee a performance based system. A hybridised form of performance based planning evolved in Queensland which was dependent on prescriptive land use zones and specification of land use type, with some local governments going to extreme lengths to discourage certain activities in a predetermined manner. Context had varying degrees of influence on plan-making methods. Decision-making was found to be inconsistent and the system created a range of unforeseen consequences including difficulties associated with land valuation, increased development speculation, and the role of planners in court was found to be less critical than in the previous planning system.

That wouldnât mean anything.
Little old ladies forget things, poo their pants, and drool. Spitting in public is just the next stage on.

Pgd In Business Management Assignment
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
The proper and brief definition of Global warming is when the temperature of this earth rises in other words when the earth heats up. It will happen because greenhouse gases trap heat (carbon dioxide, water vapour, nitrous oxide, and methane) from the sun which results increase in the temperature of earth. In the result of increase in temperature many people, animal, and plants will affected and many of them will not survive because they cannot adopt this change so they will die. [library.thinkquest.org]
Some people think global warming is just a theory; and some people call it a proven set of facts. Difference in opinions is natural but we cannot neglect the reality and reality is we are going towards disaster. It will destroy everything our economic, social life etc. That is why the effects of global warming have catastrophic potential. Global warming as caused by greenhouse gas emissions can lead us to a definite imbalance of nature.The premise of global warming as an issue of debate is that industrial growth coupled with non-structured methods we as humans use to sustain ourselves has created a situation where our planet is getting progressively hotter. We have seemingly negatively affected our environment by a cycle of harmful processes that now seem to be feeding upon themselves to
exponentially increase the damage to our ecosystem. [http://globalwarming.com]
It is an alarming situation for the world. Latest research says, there is an 80% chance that 3 billion people in this world will have to choose between moving their families to milder climes and going hungry due to climate change within 100 years. The main critics are on the big industrial giants of the world. Climate change is expected to have the most severe impact on water supplies. "Shortages in future are likely to threaten food production, reduce sanitation, hinder economic development and damage ecosystems. It causes more violent swings between floods and droughts."" - Guardian: Global warming causes 300,000 deaths a year. [www.newscientist.com]
Global warming affecting strategic business management and planning
These days global warming has become an issue for many businesses worldwide. It's taking on ever increasing importance in business strategies. There is a hope to pass new regulations in this regards in the forum of UN if the industrial giants agree to limit the quantity of carbon dioxide and other gases which can emitted into the atmosphere, and or any other ways which affect the climate very badly, if these countries done this breakthrough then this is a big achievement. Even when these regulations do not directly affect small businesses, they can affect the business of their customers and suppliers, and thereby affect small businesses through the costs of the materials, supplies, and energy they purchase, and the products and services that their customers can, and want to purchase. The changes could mean greater restrictions and costs, but at the same time they could mean new opportunities. A sensible way to face the coming changes is to analyze the risks and evaluate the opportunities associated with the changes in climate trends, the potential changes in regulations, public opinion and how it affects people's image of business, and the changes in markets for goods and services. Companies that can mitigate the risks brought on by changes in climate, adapt to the regulations that are imposed, inform the public of its efforts to reduce adverse effects on the environment, and take advantage of new opportunities that present themselves, will be in better conditions to prosper. [http://www.associatedcontent.com]
Climatic Changes
Organizations which affected directly by climate changes like flooding prolonged droughts in some areas or stronger storms in some area which affect the asses of that company they should plan now. The value of properties located on coasts that are affected by storms could decrease, and it could become more difficult and costly to obtain insurance. Companies that seek insurance against wind damage and flooding could face requirements that obligate them to construct buildings and structures that are more solid and resistant. [ http://www.associatedcontent.com]
Global warming could cut the world's annual economic output by as much as 20%, an influential report by Sir Nicholas Stern. BBC News channel (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6093396.stm)
Climate change affect business in two different ways
Climate change is affecting all aspects of life such as individual and social life and raising health issues and affecting businesses; it is more than a physical phenomenon. It is a drastic change in our environment, culture and politics which has given a new direction to our thoughts how we think about our society and businesses on Earth. Different business leaders observe climate change differently. For some this will lead the melting of Greenland ice sheet and for others is will disrupt the monsoon.
If we study climate change in the context of business strategy we will find that it has a direct impact on businesses. Climate change is going to affect the businesses strategies in two different ways:
1-Climate change is going to affect the society and eco systems. With increasing awareness regarding the impacts of climate change customers buying behaviours and their requirements are changing which increases the demand for environment related strategic plans. Businesses cannot work in isolation, so business leaders will have to design their plans according to the changing climate and business environments. So this is going to affect businesses directly.
2-As governments seem to be more concerned to these changes and they have to make policies and regulations to avoid or at least lessen the bad impacts of the climate changes. Government policies regarding these changes such as saving carbon emissions will have direct impact on the business strategic plans. And business leaders will have to take into account these changes, while designing the plans for their business. [static.london.gov.uk]
For business leaders climate change is not all bad; it is an opportunity to do the right things that are wrong for instance climate change has created new business opportunities such as hybrid cars and alternative energies (wind energy and solar energy). On the other hand some countries such as Siberia, for instance could benefit a great deal with a bit of warming. For innovative business leaders it generates a host of business opportunities.
Environmental changes will affect different business differently according to their area operations but one thing is sure that organisations need to treat these changes as important as they plan for the effectiveness of their operations.
Business leaders will have to assess the environmental changes in the context of their contribution towards these climate changes as well as affect of climate change on their business for example every operation of an organisation such as logistics, marketing, sales and after sales services could generate emissions, which contributes directly towards the climate change. This could be critical for leaders depending on their understanding and how importance they give to these contributions.
Change in temperature and weathers will have direct effect on the operations of the business such as employees' safety issues, their illness and insurance expanses.
Government legislations will bind them to make policies to avoid impact of climate changes to the society.
Part 2
Impact of scarce commodities emerging economies (BRIC) and economic recession on organisations in the 21st century and the need for innovation
Scarce commodities:
Scarcity refers to the economic problem of having unlimited human needs and wants of resources which are scarce.
Scarcity of these resources is resulting the price increase of these commodities. The biggest challenge of 21st century is not law and order but its feeding the world and resource allocation. Any system which consumes resources to grow or sustain itself will have one or more limiting resources. For example, in order to grow, a tree has to have water, sunlight, oxygen, carbon dioxide, fixed nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, several trace minerals, and so forth. As the tree grows, it consumes these resources at least temporarily (oxygen, for example, is actually returned to the atmosphere in greater quantity than the tree uses, but the tree will still die if there's no oxygen in the air). If any of these resources is scarce enough that its absence keeps the tree from growing faster, then it is a limiting resource. If there's relatively little sunlight, then sunlight may be a limiting resource, and more light would cause the tree to grow faster.
There can be several limiting resources in a system, and if a limiting resource suddenly becomes plentiful, then usually a different resource becomes limiting. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarcity#cite_note-0]
Emerging Economies of the World (BRIC)
BRIC is referred to the fast growing develping economies of Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Brazil, Russia, India and China-the BRICs economies-could become a much larger force in the world economy. Three-quarters of the world'sopulation lives in emerging markets, 40 per cent of the world's population lives in a BRIC country, half of the BRIC population is under the age of 30. Demographics are a big part of it. Victoria Young, Investor Daily, (http://www.investordaily.com)
Growth in BRICs is creating new demand and higher growth in these economies. Higher growth could lead to higher returns and increased demand for capital which could increase the need for investments to these countries. The more investment done in these countries will strengthen the economies more.
Increase in income in these economies will make these countries a very favourable market for different kinds of products, which dramatically change the demand and pricing figures for a range of commodities. As today's advanced economies become a shrinking part of the world economy, the accompanying shifts in spending could provide significant opportunities for global companies. Being invested in and involved in the right markets-particularly the right emerging markets-may become an increasingly important strategic choice.
Economic recession:
In December 2007 economic recession started from United States. Which within the period of 2007-2009 became global recession. This economic environment was created by various imbalances and was sparked by the outbreak of the financial crisis of 2007-2009. Although the late-2000s recession has at times been referred to as "the Great Recession," this same phrase has been used to refer to every recession of the several preceding decades.
Economics March 11, 2009, 'Great Recession': A Brief Etymology by CATHERINE RAMPELL
The US mortgage-backed securities, which had risks that were hard to assess, were marketed around the world. A more broad based credit boom fed a global speculative bubble in real estate and equities, which served to reinforce the risky lending practices. The precarious financial situation was made more difficult by a sharp increase in oil and food prices. The emergence of Sub-prime loan losses in 2007 began the crisis and exposed other risky loans and over-inflated asset prices. With loan losses mounting and the fall of Lehman Brothers on September 15, 2008, a major panic broke out on the inter-bank loan
market. As share and housing prices declined many large and well established investment and commercial banks in the United States and Europe suffered huge losses and even faced bankruptcy, resulting in massive public financial assistance. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late-2000s_recession#cite_note-0)
Need for Innovation:
In the growing economic of BRIC economies, scarce commodities and economic recession to gain competitive advantages industries need to be innovative in designing their products as well as designing their strategies. The Business which senses these change first and makes their own position in its rivals will survive and gain competitive advantages over the rivals. Need of innovation is always there in the businesses. We can say that competition can be viewed a process driven by innovation.
During a period of rapid change when industry structure is being revolutionized by innovation, value typically migrates to business models based on new positioning strategies. In stock brokerage industry, value has migrated away from the full service broker model to the online trading model. In the book selling industry, value has migrated away from book stores to online book stores such as Amazon.com.
