Capital Markets Weekly: US tariffs and Uber discount challenge equity appetite
The failure of US/Chinese trade negotiations to avoid new US tariffs is a key adverse indicator challenging upcoming stock market performance. So is the weak initial market performance for Uber, which opened at a discount of nearly 8% despite pricing towards the bottom of its indicated range.
Despite the greater uncertainty, emerging market debt remains well-received. A complex and long-dated structured deal from Paraguay was upsized, with Philippines enjoying clear success with its first Euro-denominated deal in over a decade. Kenya's sizeable planned dollar sale is the most obvious pending test of sentiment although the calendar spans several regions and issuers without signs of risk aversion so far.
Emerging Markets
On 10 May, Philippines announced a EUR750 million sale of eight-year debt priced at 0.875%. The deal was six-times subscribed and increased from EUR500 million. Pricing tightened from initial guidance of mid-swaps plus 90-100 basis points to mid-swaps plus 70 basis points. Philippines is reportedly also opening books on a CNY2.5 billion (USD367 million) Chinese Panda bond shortly, and to be planning further issuance in Japan's Samurai market.
Despite the imposition of additional US tariffs, Chinese (and related) borrowers have continued to issue. On 10 May, Yankuang Group, a coal mining firm located in Shandong, sold a USD500 million tap priced inside its outstanding notes. During last week CCB Leasing also sold USD700 million of five and ten-year debt, and MGM China - which operates casino facilities in Macau - placed USD1.5 billion of five and seven-year debt at 5.375% and 5.875% respectively.
Kenya has announced marketing plans for its projected sizeable dollar sale, expected to seek around USD2.5 billion. In addition, the Eastern and South African Trade and Development Bank (TDB) is marketing for potential dollar issuance, after a two-year absence from international capital markets. The multinational treaty-based institution specializes in funding trade, regional economic integration and sustainable development. TDB operates from multiple African locations including Nairobi, Harare and Addis Ababa, and enjoys a low investment-grade rating from both S+P and Moody's.
Chile started marketing on 9 May for the internationally-targeted sale of peso-denominated bonds clearable through Euroclear, tapping existing domestic government issues due in 2023, 2030 and 2050. No specific size target has yet been released.
Paraguayan toll road concession Consorcio Corredor Via Bioceánico increased its planned debt sale to USD732 million from an initial USD600 million. The issue is a securitization backed by construction payment obligations of Paraguay's Ministry of Public Works and Communications. With a maturity of 15.1 years, and average life of 8.9 years, it offered indicative pricing of 5.75% which was tightened to 5.375%. The deal will assist Brazil's Queiroz Galvão and local construction firm Ocho A to fund a highway construction project in Paraguay.
UAE property developer and shopping mall operator Majid Al Futtaim sold USD600 million of 10-year sukuk liabilities at 4.638% using a Green Bond format. After giving initial price guidance of 245 basis points over mid-swaps, pricing was tightened twice to 220 basis points, with demand reaching USD3 billion.
Czech Railways is road-showing for a seven-year Euro-denominated bond. The company is 100% state owned and enjoys investment grade ratings.
Uber's IPO was priced at USD45 per share, raising USD8.1 billion and valuing the firm at USD82.2 billion. The deal started trading poorly and closed first-day trading on 10 May down 7.6% at USD41.57 a share. Lyft also continued falling, reaching USD51.09 versus its USD72 issue price, after announcing new heavy losses.
Outlook and Implications
The lackluster start to trading in Uber's shares, and the clearly-weak performance of Lyft are adverse indicators for the primary equity market: both are large and high-profile primary deals. Investor losses are likely to encourage greater caution towards new share offerings, especially for technology firms with limited history of profitable trading, potential for further losses, complex share structures (as in Lyft), and legal concerns.
This does not imply that all IPOs now face resistance, nor that the market will dry up. Indeed, in total, 12 IPOs were priced last week in the US markets, with Jiavin Group, a Chinese on-line lender- opening NASDAQ rising 53.8% in first-day trading. This week's supply includes seven more deals, including Luckin Coffee, a fast-growing alternative to Starbucks in China, but with a very short trading history. The response to such deals should help to indicate if sentiment has worsened more broadly. Overall, we'd expect that investors should show greater selectivity and sensitivity to pricing after losing money initially with Uber and Lyft and expect more caution in equity markets more generally given the uncertainties stemming from tariffs.
So far, there are few signs that this has hurt debt-market demand. Kenya's pending dollar deal will be an interesting test, as a large deal and coming against a background of debt accumulation. However, Kenya has enjoyed strong prior market interest and appears potentially well-backed.
Philippines is well-regarded by the markets. Its success in Euros was boosted by rarity, but also helped by a recent S+P upgrade moving its long-term sovereign rating to BBB+ from BBB. Lastly, we were encouraged by the Chinese bond supply last week. Given the adverse background relating to trade talks and tariff increases, such deals would appear obvious candidates to have suffered if bond investors were reducing their risk appetite, making their completion - on fine terms - an encouraging sign.

"The only thing worth writing about is the human heart in conflict with itself" said William Faulkner. I agree, even though the language, the vocabulary is imprecise.
The "heart" is one self, and the other self is the precious "I", the delusional "I", the lower self.
The conflict, the struggle to make those two selves align, as William Faulkner says, is worth writing about… because it is like a hero's journey.
I call it "soul correction" because I am firmly rooted in Kabbalah's view of life. But it is the same thing: bringing the two selves in harmony so they cause synergy that allows living a life worth writing about.
This pretty much the context for the next quote: "Either write something worth reading (about) or do something worth writing (about)." – Benjamin Franklin. I added the word "about" in brackets for clarity.
My work, the work I intend to do in all my articles, in all my courses, in all my conversations is to cause people to move their lower self closer to their higher self… to cause their two selves getting closer every day.
It sounds easy, but it is not.
The influences on the lower self, your public self, are so many, so difficult to recognize, that it is neither fast nor easy to bring people's two selves closer to each other…
The linchpin issue is what we might call a case. What, I think, Dianetics called engram. What Landmark, maybe, called your racket.
The linchpin issue is not easy to identify. It seems that there are many issues… and it is hard to know how to recognize it, how to pinpoint it.
Was it what happened? Was it what you said about it then? Was it the mood it left you in? Was it the strategy you invented to deal with it?
It could be all and neither.
Some people I have known for five years and yet I can't quite put my finger on their case. Sometimes because it is so simple and yet it makes such a big difference.
Here is an example: I have had two people with the soul correction "Silent Partner".
Both have an extremely high emotional reaction to the possibility to do something wrong. They only want to do the things that are right… (not wrong!) and therefore refuse any suggestion, any help, any learning that would want to tell them what to do.
Why? Because they want to do what THEY SEE as the right thing, and they CANNOT SEE what they haven't done yet, whether it is right or wrong.
We could say these are the independents of humanity: they insist to learn only from experience, even if it kills them.
I once had a client like that, before I knew anything about soul correction… I had a big space inside my rental, and to make it pay for itself, I offered it to this dude who was a musician in exchange to a part of his profit.
I had only one condition: he needed to run every idea through me, so I could be sure the space at least pays for itself… about five hundred dollars a month.
He refused. He said: I want to be able to make all the mistakes I can make… So we didn't have a deal. Looking at his track record, all his successes were due to someone else's decisions, all his own decisions were losers…
This is your typical Silent Partner.
Now let's see this case thing, particularly the Silent Partner case in light of what William Faulkner said about the heart battling it out with itself… however schizophrenic that sounds.
The soul, the higher self knows that the way to live life is to use every opportunity to be and become the best you can be. That is the same in every soul correction, by the way. There may be individual flavors, but the individual flavors seem to come from another source, maybe the Zodiac? I am not certain, but that is the most likely source. 1
So in order to have a life worth writing about, the Silent Partner would have to be willing to bring the two selves together, but for that, they would have to be willing to do thought experiments, and learn from them, instead of having to make every mistake in the book, or alternatively shrink their life until it will allow for no action.
So the likelihood that an uncorrected "Silent Partner" is going to live a life not worth writing about is near or about 100%.
I have stopped taking clients whose soul correction is "Silent Partner".
Another difficult soul correction is "Finish What You Start".
What is their case, across the board?
I have only a few cases to judge from, by my hunch is: they refuse to be the average guy, a human. They decided, at some point, that they need to be superman, superwoman, and they believed their own myth after teaching it everyone around them.
I have never met a successful or happy "Finish What You Start" person.
The strait jacket their self-created myth puts on them is a yoke. They cannot just do things, the have to DOOOOO things… fast, immediately brilliantly, and, or course, that is impossible.
So they live a life of no integrity, appearances, and no authenticity.
I admit, it is very hard to go back to the beginning, to the foundation, that is missing for them all. They never built any: assiduity is inconsistent with Superman. And even when the job requires them to just do it, they are unhappy, because they feel they are supposed to do something big and significant.
I don't like to coach "Finish What You Start" people because they will lie to me. They will try to sell me the myth, and I am not a buyer for myths.
I have shared with you my two least favorite soul corrections, for one reason only: so you get that it is not an accident that most people's life is not worth writing about…
Unless they are, of course, in training to learn about their case, and start conquering it.
But if you can't be proud of yourself, if your two selves are not embracing, at least some of the time, then you live a life, that Wallace D. Wattles calls wretched.
- You don't love yourself.
- You don't love your life.
- You have a low grade depression, unless it is full-blown, and you are self-medicating: alcohol, computer games, Netflix, sex, trash novels, work… all to avoid looking at the missed opportunities.
They become intensely interested in their feelings instead of what there is to do. And then seek help for their feelings, as if the feelings were the cause of their misery.
The feelings are not the cause of your misery, they are effects themselves.
The more you are interested in your feelings, the more you are trying to change them, the more entangled you get, and the less you are dealing with what could help.
You, in effect, are the puppet of the culture, the puppet of the societal system that keeps your strings pulled so you stop being an individual.
Many of you may feel it is some person or persons that keep you unhappy… and although they may be brilliant at jerking your chains, like A's daughter, of M's wife, or a different M's mother, the chain jerking is not the issue. The issue is where you are looking.
I'll say that again: The issue is where you are looking.
As I said in my last article, yesterday I think, your most important tool of being a person is your attention.
Most people follow their attention wherever it goes… but hardly ever direct it.
I learned during an eye examination that I was one of those people. And then I started to learn to control, direct, restrict, redirect my attention to where I wanted it to go.
In some way you could say that I had a second birth in 1996, that is when I learned about attention. that is when I became a person.
Many of the spiritual practices I give to my clients and students are to teach them to control and direct their attention.
Most misunderstand and never become a person… Why?
In some weird and wretched way, it is comfortable to remain a victim.
It takes being a self-starter, it takes having a big enough fire in your "heart" to do the exercises day after day, even though you know how to do them.
I know how to do a lot of things. But unless I do them, day in and day out, my knowledge won't do anything to me, won't allow me to live I life worth living, live a life worth writing about.
- I have a client whose soul correction is vastly different from mine, but we are both Virgos, and we are very similar in our higher self. Our case, what we struggle with, our lower self is vastly different. That comes from the Soul Correction.
His soul correction issue is the Desire Trap. My soul correction issue is Condescension. He is a "Sexual Energy", I am a "Forget Thyself".

Altran Renews Technical Partnership with Lotus F1 Team for 2014
PARIS, March 10, 2014 / PRNewswire –
Altran, the global leader in innovation and high-tech engineering consulting, has renewed its technical partnership with Lotus F1 Team for the 2014 season. The announcement was made today by Mike Simms, CEO of Altran UK, and Matthew Carter, CEO of Lotus F1 Team. The partnership was launched in 2013, and has been built upon Altran's previous 10-year experience as engineering and design partner in Formula 1, from 2002 to 2010.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/
The partnership will see Altran continue to provide Lotus F1 Team with leading-edge innovation and technological support services through a team of Altran engineers based on site at Whiteways Technical Centre in Enstone, Oxfordshire, the home of Lotus F1 Team. During 2013, Altran's engineers provided crucial support on the development of key components of the recently unveiled E22 racing car, including the gearbox dyno, the front wing and the rear suspension. Altran has also played a pivotal role in other major engineering projects at Lotus F1 Team, including the development of a state-of-the-art driver simulator and the upgrade of the wind tunnel at Whiteways Technical Centre.
Mike Simms, CEO of Altran UK, said: "We are delighted to continue our partnership with Lotus F1 Team, a relationship that is based on a shared passion for innovation and a relentless desire to stay ahead of the competition. The 2014 season brings with it a raft of new racing regulations, which require all F1 teams to undergo a major change of direction in terms of engineering design and execution. Altran is playing a critical role in enabling Lotus F1 Team to rise to this challenge successfully, and we look forward to an exciting and successful year ahead."
Matthew Carter, CEO of Lotus F1 Team, added: "Technical Partnerships provide vital support to our engineering endeavours and their continuity and quality represent a key strength of the team's DNA. The collaboration with Altran has provided invaluable contributions in different moments of the team's history and we are particularly pleased to see their support being renewed in a moment when a vision for innovation and engineering are more critical than ever."

Beware of 'Rock Star' Designers
I have seldom felt so ripped off by a book purchase. "Re-Imagine!" was totally ruined by a show-off, smartypants designer--Jason Godfrey at Godfrey Designs--who rendered Peters' words unreadable.
To see how Godfrey Designs butchered Tom Peters's "Re-Imagine!," go to: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/078949647X/qid=1131385337/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-4312640-7324136?v=glance&s=books&n=507846
Move the cursor to the photo of the book and when it says, "Inside This Book" and "Browse Sample Pages," type in "Monster Mash," and click "GO." Then type in "The Real Chick Lit," and click "GO."
You will have an idea how truly unpleasant it is to try to read this book.
Imagine! A designer was allowed to do to an entire book what Kidd does to covers!
Takeaway Points to Consider
- Before hiring a designer for a project, first determine the purpose of the design--whether it be a logo, billboard, magazine illustration, sales brochure, annual report, newspaper ad or book cover.
- Communicate to the designer precisely what you want the design to accomplish.
- I have found that designers can be very patronizing to executives, saying in effect, "You don't know anything about creative; leave that to me." If you feel uncomfortable with the design, then the design is wrong. Period.
- Be prepared to sit on the designer and have the job done over and over again until it satisfies you--not the designer--and the original intent.
- If the designer whines that you're stifling creativity, get another designer immediately.
- In the immortal words of Ed McCabe of the old RCA Record Club, "Every time we get creative we lose money."
- Finally, make a black-and-white photocopy of the ad or page. If it's difficult to read the type, send it back to the designer for surgery.

Primitive arcs on curves.
1.1 Let k be a field. A test-ring A (or (A,[m.sub.A])) is a local k-algebra, whose maximal ideal [m.sub.A] is nilpotent with residue field A/[m.sub.A] [congruent to] k. A primitive arc [gamma] of a k-curve X at x [member of] X(k) is a primitive k-parametrization [O.sub.X,x] [right arrow] k[[T]] (see definition 3.1), which satisfies the following property: For every test-ring (A,[m.sub.A]), for every commutative diagram of morphisms of local k-algebras
where [r.sub.A] : A[[T]] [right arrow] k[[T]] is the continuous morphism of complete local k-algebras defined by T [??] T with kernel [m.sub.A], there exists a unique power series [p.sub.A] [member of] [m.sub.A][[T]] which induces a continuous morphism of complete local k-algebras [p.sup.#.sub.A] : k[[T]] [right arrow] A[[T]] that verifies the formula [[gamma].sub.A] = [p.sup.#.sub.A] [omicron] [gamma]. If it exists, a primitive arc is unique (up to isomorphism).
1.2 The basic subject of this article could be summarized by the following question:
Question 1.1. Which class of pointed k-curves admits primitive arcs?
This article provides a complete answer to question 1.1 for analytically irreducible curves. Precisely, we establish various criterions for the existence of primitive arcs on k-curves. In this way, the existence of primitive arcs can be interpreted as an original criterion of local smoothness (for k-curves) in terms of the associated arc schemes, or as a criterion for determining when the normalization morphism induces an isomorphism at the level of the involved arc schemes. If X is a k-curve and x [member of] X(k), recall that the point x can be viewed as a constant arc of the associated arc scheme [L.sub.[infinity]](X), and we denote by [L.sub.[infinity]][(X).sub.x] the formal neighborhood of the arc x in [L.sub.[infinity]](X), i.e., the formal k-scheme Spf([MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII]).
Theorem 1.1. Let k be an algebraically closed field. Let X be a k-curve which is unibranch at x [member of] X(k). Then the following assertions are equivalent:
1. The k-curve X is smooth at x;
2. There exists a primitive arc [gamma] at x on X;
3. The formal k-scheme [L.sub.[infinity]][(X).sub.x] is isomorphic to Spf(k[[[([T.sub.i]).sub.i[member of]N]]]);
4. The normalization [pi] : [bar.X] [right arrow] X induces, at the level of formal neighborhoods of the associated arc schemes, an isomorphism of formal k-schemes
where [bar.x] [member of] [bar.X] (k) is the lifting of x;
5. The morphism [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] is surjective.
1.3 The point of view of formal neighborhoods of arc schemes has been introduced in [8] (see also [6]). If V is a variety, the formal neighborhood [L.sub.[infinity]][(V).sub.[gamma]] parametrizes the formal deformations of the arc [gamma] in [L.sub.[infinity]](V). In [8, 6] (see also [3] for an analog statement in the context of formal geometry), the authors prove a structure theorem for formal neighborhoods of arc schemes at non-constant arcs, which are not contained in the singular locus of the involved variety. The interpretation of such a result in terms of singularity theory remains a challenging problem, and works [3, 4, 5] are, to the best of our knowledge, the first steps in this direction. Let us also mention [7, 12] where some properties of formal neighborhoods of arc schemes are also studied in other frameworks.
Contrary to these works, the involved arcs in our statement are constant; hence, our result provides information for arcs contained in the singular locus. (Let us note that in general the main theorem of [8, 6] does not hold for singular constant arcs, see [2] for counter-examples). Roughly speaking, the present work (see assertion (3) of theorem 1.1) investigates the study of the smoothness of an analytically irreducible k-curve X at a point x from the point of view of the "deformations" of the constant arc x in the associated arc scheme [L.sub.[infinity]](X). In this context, the notion of rigidity (i.e., situation where there is no non-trivial deformation) corresponds to the existence of a primitive arc.
2 Preliminaries
2.1 Let k be a field. A k-variety is a k-scheme of finite type. A k-curve is a reduced k-variety of dimension 1. We say that a pointed curve (X, x), with x [member of] X(k), is unibranch (or analytically irreducible) at x if the ring [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] is a domain.
2.2 Let k be a field. Let V be a k-variety. The functor S [??] Homk(S[[??].sub.k]k[[T]],V) defined from the category of k-schemes to that of sets is representable by a k-scheme [L.sub.[infinity]](V). (Let us note that this presentation uses a recent non-trivial result due to B. Bhatt, see [1, Theorem 1.1]). If V is an affine k-variety, for every k-algebra A, every element [[gamma].sub.A] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]](V)(A) coincides with the datum of a morphism of k-algebras O(V) [right arrow] A[[T]].
2.3 Let V be a k-variety and [gamma] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]](V)(k). Yoneda's lemma [9, 8.1.4] and the properties of completion formally imply that the formal neighborhood [L.sub.[infinity]][(V).sub.[gamma]] of the k-scheme [L.sub.[infinity]](V) at g is completely determined by the functor of points
when A runs over the category of test-rings, and where the considered morphisms are the continuous morphisms of complete local k-algebras from [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] to A. See [8, 6] or also [3].
3 The proof of theorem 1.1
Definition 3.1. Let k be a field. Let X be a k-curve with x [member of] X(k). A primitive k-parametrization of X at x is a morphism of local k-algebras [gamma]: [O.sub.X,x] [right arrow] k[[T]], which satisfies the following property: For every morphism [gamma]': [O.sub.X,x] [right arrow] k[[T]] of local k-algebras, there exists a power series [p.sub.k] [member of] Tk[[T]] such that we have [gamma]' = [p.sup.#.sub.k] [omicron] [gamma].
If k is algebraically closed and X is unibranch at x, the normalization [pi]: [bar.X] [right arrow] X of X provides a primitive k-parametrization of X at x by considering the induced morphism of local k-algebras [[pi].sub.x] : [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII]
Remark 3.1. A primitive k-parametrization may not be a primitive arc. Let X be the affine plane k-curve defined by the datum of the polynomial F = [T.sup.3.sub.1] - [T.sup.2.sub.2] [member of] C[[T.sub.1], [T.sub.2]]. Let us consider the primitive k-parametrization [gamma] at the origin o in X = Spec(C[[T.sub.1], [T.sub.2]]/<[T.sup.3.sub.1] - [T.sup.2.sub.2]>) defined by the element ([T.sup.2], [T.sup.3]) [member of] C[[T]]. Let A := C[S]/<[S.sup.2]>. We observe that the element [[gamma].sub.A] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]][(X).sub.o](A) given by [T.sub.1] [??] S, [T.sub.2] [??] S, can not be written under the form [gamma] [omicron] [p.sub.A]. So, [gamma] is not a primitive arc.
Let us mention that implication 4 [??] 5 is obvious, and that implication 4 [??] 1 also is obvious since we have [L.sub.[infinity]]([bar.X]) [bar.x] [congruent to] Spf(k[[[([T.sub.i]).sub.i[member of]N]]]). Let us prove the other implications.
1 [??] 2 Since X is smooth at x, there exists an affine open subscheme U of X, which contains x, endowed with an etale morphism of k-schemes U [right arrow] [A.sup.1.sub.k] = Spec(k[t]), corresponding to the choice of a local parameter in O(U) (i.e., a generator t of the maximal ideal [m.sub.x] in the ring [O.sub.X,x]). Up to shrinking X, we may assume that X = U. Then, let [gamma] be the arc corresponding to the following morphism of k-schemes:
obtained by composition via the completionmorphism. It gives rise to a primitive k-parametrization of X at x. Then, it is easy to check that the arc [gamma] is primitive, since, in this case, for every test-ring A, and every [[gamma].sub.A] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]][(X).sub.x](A), we take [p.sub.A] = [[gamma].sub.A].
2 [??] 4 Let g be a primitive arc at x on the curve X. Let A be a test-ring. By [section]2.3, we only have to prove that the map:
is a bijection. Let [[gamma].sub.A] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]](X)x(A). By assumption, there exists a unique power series [p.sub.A] [member of] [m.sub.A][[T]] such that [[gamma].sub.A] = [gamma] [omicron] [p.sub.A] (where we identify [p.sub.A] and the induced morphisms of k-schemes). Since the morphism [pi] is proper and birational, the valuative criterion of properness implies the existence of a unique non-constant arc [bar.[gamma]] [member of] [L.sub.[infinity]]([bar.X])(k) such that [pi] [omicron] [bar.[gamma]] = [gamma]. Then, we easily observe that [bar.[gamma]] [omicron] [p.sub.A] is the unique preimage by [p.sub.A] of [[gamma].sub.A].
5[??] 1We assume that the morphism [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] is surjective. Then, for every test-ring A, the induced map:
is injective. We are going to show that this property implies the smoothness of X at x. Let us denote by [mult.sub.x](X) the integer defined as follows. If [gamma] is a primitive k-parametrization at x, let us consider the ideal [gamma]([m.sub.x]) in the ring [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] (t is here a generator of the maximal ideal [m.sub.[bar.x]] of the ring O[bar.X] , [bar.x]). There exists an integer n such that [gamma]([m.sub.x]) = <[t.sup.n]>. We then set n =: [mult.sub.x](X). This definition does not depend on the choice of g. If the k-curve X is singular at x, we have [mult.sub.x](X) [greater than or equal to] 2.
Let us assume that x is a singular point of X. Up to shrinking X, we may assume that X is affine, embedded in [A.sup.N.sub.k] = Spec(k[[T.sub.1] ,..., [T.sub.N]]), and, up to a translation, we may assume that x is the origin o of [A.sup.N.sub.k]. Let A := k[U]/<[U.sup.2]>. The power series [[phi].sub.1] = 0 [member of] A[[T]] and [[phi].sub.2] = UT [member of] A[[T]] define two elements of [L.sub.[infinity]]([bar.X]) [bar.x](A). It follows from the definition that
[L.sub.[infinity]](p)([[phi].sub.1]) = [L.sub.[infinity]]([pi])([[phi].sub.2]). (3)
since [mult.sub.x](X) > 1. Indeed, every variable [T.sub.i] (seen in the ring [O.sub.X,x]) is sent by the morphism of local k-algebras [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] to an element in the ideal [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII], where t is a generator of the ideal m[bar.x]. So, we obtain formula (3) since [L.sub.[infinity]]([pi])([[phi].sub.i]) corresponds, for every integer i [member of] {1, 2}, to the following composition of morphisms of local k-algebras:
The injectivity of the map [[pi].sub.A] then implies that [[phi].sub.1] = [[phi].sub.2]. That is a contradiction, which concludes the proof.
3 [??] 1 It is sufficient to prove that the ring [O.sub.X,x] is formally smooth for the mx-adic topology thanks to [11, 17.5.3]. By [10, 19.3.3,19.3.6],we observe that, due to our assumption, the ring [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] is formally smooth, and we conclude by the existence of the following diagram of continuous morphisms of local k-algebras:
Example 3.1. Keep the notation of remark 3.1. In this case, the normalization morphism [[pi].sup.#] : O(X) [right arrow] k[T] is defined by [T.sub.1] [??] [T.sup.2], [T.sub.2] [??] [T.sup.3]; hence, every A-deformation of the origin in [bar.X] is sent to the origin in X. We easily conclude that the deformation (S, S) of the origin in X does not lift to the normalization [bar.X].
Remark 3.2. By base change, we observe that theorem 1.1 can be generalized to every geometrically unibranch integral curve X and any closed point x [member of] X.
Remark 3.3. Keep the notation and assumptions of theorem 1.1. It is not hard to prove that the morphism [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] is a formal invariant of the curve singularity (X, x). By this way, formal neighborhoods at constant arcs in arc scheme provide new formal invariants of curve singularities. It would be interesting to study these invariants with respect to the classical theory of singularities.

Toyota Tundra vs Ford F-150
When the time comes for you to figure out your next pickup truck, you'll have a lot to consider. The Toyota Tundra and Ford F-150 are both impressive pickup trucks that provide a great deal of power and performance, making them ideal options. But which one should you choose?
Our team at Doral Toyota is happy to help you figure out the answer to that question by giving you an up-close look at these trucks. We'll focus our attention on off-road capabilities, exterior dimensions, interior technology, and systems to help you make an informed decision. By learning how these trucks differ, you'll better understand which one will help you out more with your workload around Doral, Kendall, Miami, and Hialeah.
Off-Road Capabilities
Looking to take an exciting weekend adventure? Pickups make for great vehicles to traverse uncharted territory safely and securely. The 2019 Toyota Tundra is a great choice for an off-roading adventure truck. With standard Automatic Limited-Slip Differential, your car will control slip mechanically and apply the brakes individually to the wheels with lesser traction.
The best part is that it doesn't cut engine power. Active Traction Control (A-TRAC) is also available to optimize the front and rear axles to help improve grip on low-traction surfaces. So, whether you're taking your Tundra through mud or braving rocky territory, you can expect to stay in control.
The Ford F-150 is also a great option for brave drivers. To help you ascend steep terrain, Hill Descent Control™ is available to prevent slip-back. Also available, is an electronic locking rear differential. It locks the rear axle to enhance traction. However, unlike with the Tundra, there's no component to lock the front axle as well.
The Toyota Tundra also has a leg up when it comes to ground clearance. Raised an impressive 10.4 inches off the ground, the Tundra surpasses the F-150, which stands at only 9.9 inches. Additionally, the Tundra features an available ¼-inch thick aluminum skid plate to provide added protection to your important underside components. Unfortunately, without this feature and with being lower to the ground, the F-150 may not be equipped to handle your next off-road excursion.
Toyota Tundra vs Ford F-150: Exterior Dimensions
When it comes to traversing Florida city streets, you'll want a car that can zip around and park in tighter spots with ease. The frame of the Tundra is sleek, yet commanding at 76 inches tall and 79.9 inches wide. When it comes to taking the Ford F-150 around town, you may find it too bulky, standing 78.5 inches tall and 86.3 inches wide. The Toyota Tundra, though, with its smaller exterior, may be easier to parallel park, so you can hit the beach with greater ease.
Despite an overall smaller frame, the Tundra doesn't compromise where it really counts. You'll have no trouble fitting wider items into your bed with a bed width of 66.4 inches. Things may get a little tight with the F-150 though, since it only offers a 65.2-inch-wide bed.
Interior Technology & Entertainment Features
Even though you're choosing a work truck, driving around shouldn't feel like work. The Toyota Tundra comes with a standard Entune™ Audio System, whereas the SYNC® entertainment system in the Ford F-150 is an available option only. So, you'll have to upgrade to a different trim or add on a package to be able to pair your compatible smartphone and listen to your favorite music while cruising down the coast with the F-150.
The available Entune™ Premium JBL® Audio with Integrated Navigation and Entune™ App Suite found in the Tundra, features a split-screen display. So, you can control your favorite applications on your 7-inch display without having to cut away from your navigation guide. The display in the F-150 doesn't have this feature available, meaning you'd have to exit away from your route guide if you wanted to utilize another infotainment application.
Safety Systems Comparison
Safety should never be compromised, no matter how rough and rugged your pickup is. The Toyota Tundra and Ford F-150 offer similar safety features to help ensure you're aware of the changing road around you at all times.
The Toyota Tundra comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™, which includes the following safety technologies:
- Pre-collision System with Pedestrian Detection
Alerts you to vehicles or pedestrians in front of you, helping you avoid a potential collision. If a frontal collision seems likely, this system can even apply the brakes for you.
- Lane Departure Alert with Sway Warning System
Detects when you may have unintentionally left your intended lane on the highway. It provides an alert, so you safely return your truck to the center of your lane.
- Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
Adjusts your speed to help you maintain a preset following distance while on the highway, allowing you to relax more during your morning commutes to your worksite.
The Ford F-150 does feature comparable safety systems with Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keeping System, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, however they don't come standard. If you're not looking to upgrade to a higher trim level in the F-150, then unfortunately these features would not be available. On the other hand, no matter which trim you choose in the Tundra, you'll have access to the features included in Toyota Safety Sense™.
Making the Right Decision for You
At Doral Toyota, we're thrilled you've carefully read through our comparison of the Toyota Tundra and Ford F-150. We hope you've found it useful in making a decision for your next pickup. While there are many similarities between these two trucks, we believe our friends in Doral, Kendall, Miami, and Hialeah will prefer what the Tundra has to offer.
With a roomy bed, superior ground clearance, and standard safety systems, the Tundra allows you to work hard and play even harder. Come explore more of this impressive vehicle. Visit our showroom to view our current selection of Tundra pickups and schedule a test drive with the model of your choosing.

I'm sure you'll agree with me when I say this:
Buying the best microphone for vocals under 100 can be a challenge.
It can seem like there are hundreds or even thousands of consumer electronics products to choose from but there's nothing that fits your specific needs. Oh, we know that feeling.
- The price/performance standard in side address studio condenser microphone technology
- Ideal for project/home studio applications; The noise level is 20 dB SPL
- High SPL handling and wide dynamic range provide unmatched versatility
It sucks when you've got a budget to fit in and you want to find something that would be the best bang for the buck, but it's impossible to narrow down the choices without spending hours (sometimes tens of hours) on research and reading the reviews on the best microphone.
We decided that it's time for robots to do the hard work. Here's how:
- With the help of Artificial Intelligence, we analyzed hundreds of thousands (no kidding) of reviews from verified owners on Amazon and reputable expert sources like Consumer Reports, The Wirecutter, PCmag, and many others.
- Every product got its own rating in each category (like "best something for vocals under 100").
- We compiled lists of the best products in every category and created lists like the one you can see below
- We shared them with the public, so you guys could make informed decisions and save time.
For this article about the Best Microphone For Vocals Under 100 we reviewed and evaluated more than 180+ microphones. The AI (artificial) selected only those that received the top award. Only winners are listed below. You can see the highest overall rating of each item and a comprehensive breakdown of its characteristics.
Best Microphone For Vocals Under 100 – Comparison Table
microphone Reviews and Buying Guide
With more choices than ever, it can be hard to find the microphone that's right for you. And it can be frustrating to shop for the best microphone for vocals under 100, hoping to find the one that can help you. But don't worry. With our tools and guides, we can help.
We provide consumers with the information they need to get the most out of their new purchases. We've discussed our favorite deals and services, and sorted out the strengths and weaknesses of each variation. We've even pinpointed what makes a good microphone, helping you identify and avoid the pitfalls of price gimmicks and overpriced consumer electronics brands.

Does the amount of water a person drinks affect their risk level for coronary heart disease?
Some research conducted since 1999 indicates that there is a good correlation between fluid intake level and coronary heart disease. Whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity and blood fibrinogen level are considered to be independent risk factors for coronary heart disease, and they all tend to be elevated by dehydration. Therefore, healthy people who drink adequate levels of plain water generally keep their hydration level up and have a reduced risk of dying from a heart attack in comparison to people who do not drink adequate water.
Water intake and risk of coronary heart disease
The clearest and most consistent association with fatal coronary heart disease was found with water intake. Among men, univariate analysis showed a dose-response relation (p < 0.001). Compared with those drinking two or fewer glasses of water daily (low), subjects drinking from three to four glasses (medium) and five or more glasses (high) had relative risks of 0.65 (95 percent confidence interval (CI): 0.40, 1.05) and 0.46 (95 percent CI: 0.28, 0.75), respectively. Among women, the relative risks of drinking medium and high levels of water were 0.54 (95 percent CI: 0.32, 0.90) and 0.59 (95 percent CI: 0.36, 0.97), respectively. The associations remained virtually unchanged when adjusting for traditional risk factors as well as for fluids other than water, energy intake, diet, exercise, and when weight replaced body mass.
Why may coronary heart disease risk be increased with a higher intake of fluids other than water? Several mechanisms can be postulated. Caffeinated beverages are mild diuretics and thus may raise blood viscosity. High energy drinks such as juices and regular sodas have osmolalities between 556 and 836 mOsm/kg. Their consumption causes a net movement of fluid from the vascular system into the intestinal lumen, resulting in a rapid elevation in blood viscosity after consumption.
Other fluids probably have a similar impact as long as they do not contain excessive levels of sugar, salt or other chemicals that the body excretes in water, thus reducing the body's water content. Although many people could and probably should drink more water than they do, drinking excessive levels of water can flush away essential salts from the body and lead to potential health problems.

A love letter for Earth Day 2020
Dear Mother Earth, I'm sure you've noticed that we've been a bit less abusive lately since we've been forced to stay at home.
While it's not the best of circumstances, it is an actual benefit to you. Our air is crisper and cleaner. Flowers are blooming brighter in color. Smog is disappearing. Trees stand just a little taller.
It seems like landscaping has become the national pastime as we all look around our homes in search of ways to make them better, more beautiful, more of a respite than we've ever dreamed of before. That boost of curb appeal doesn't hurt either!
I know that I, for sure, have spent hours and hours planting, weeding, and nurturing little seeds into existence. There are fresh herbs in pots, growing every day. The butterfly garden is filling out nicely and the hummingbirds and bees are flocking to the beds. The monarch caterpillars are gorging themselves on milkweed while I'm waiting for the swallowtails to show up in the dill pots.
Going forward
Maybe we can find a way to help you breathe a little easier as we go forward. In saving the Earth we could potentially save ourselves too.
So we promise at our company to commit to reducing our footprint a little more and give back to you as you give to us.
We already have a mostly paper-free office because we're committed to the use of electronic signatures and digital document storage that help save trees.
But this downtime has given us the opportunity to consider other ways that our office can make our impact on the environment better. We're ditching the Keurig for coffee, relying instead on the old-fashioned Mr. Coffee machine. Disposable cups are a thing of the past, as we switch to glass coffee mugs and reusable water bottles. We'll add some natives to the planters in front of our building. We'll continue to have our signs created in metal, not plastic.
These are just little things. But little things add up to big things, and we're expecting big things from you, so it's only right that we do our part.
Happy Earth Day 2020.

• The idea is to ensure there is someone who will take care of the widow and children.
• Luo practice of widow inheritance is known as 'tero'
Luo culture is under the spotlight once again following the death of Kibra MP Ken Okoth. Media reports quoted elders from the community demanding that his widow Monica undergo ritual cleansing and be inherited in accordance with tradition.
Some reports said the rituals would involve Monica having unprotected sex before she is inherited.
What actually goes on in the Luo practice of widow inheritance, known as 'tero'?
A study conducted in Bondo and Rarieda and published in the International Journal of Aids (2014) reports that "widows are expected to engage in sexual intercourse with a 'cleanser,' without the use of a condom, in order to remove the impurity ascribed to her after her husband's death."
The cleanser is often a non-relative to the dead husband. Thereafter, the widow is expected to be inherited by a man, traditionally an in-law.
The majority of widows participating in the study reported being inherited and most widows interviewed described participating in the cleansing ritual.
Goeffrey Owiti, a lecturer at Egerton University, writes in a conference paper that tero ensures provision of material and moral support to the widow. The practice confirms a father figure in the homestead and guarantees a sense of belonging to the children.
"It also gives assurance of affection and satisfaction of [the] sexual urge to the widow while discouraging sexual promiscuity on the widow's part. It is also assumed that tero ensures respect for the family of the late husband and the widow and confirms the worldview that wives belong to the community."
But how is 'tero' done? Prof Chapurukha Kusimba, who teaches anthropology at the American University in Washington DC, says many societies believe in continuity of the family line.
"Your wife might belong to you but your children belong to the society," he told the Star. "During marriage, bride wealth is paid to secure the reproductive rights of the woman."
Upon the death of the husband, the family is concerned about the welfare of the widow and the children who need a father figure. The elders propose a suitable member of the family to inherit the widow and protect the estate of the dead man.
The idea is to ensure there is someone who will take care of the widow and the children, play the role of husband and father. There is nothing repugnant about it, Kusimba says.
The widow is consulted on who she thinks should inherit her. She has the final say. She can decline to be inherited and that decision will be respected.
Traditionally, 'tero' takes place two millet seasons after the death of the husband, which is about a year.
A ceremony called 'duogo eliel', which is a gathering of relatives to commemorate the dead man, marks the final ritual of mourning. "Once this is done, the widow is free to go ahead and remarry," Kusimba says.
If the man died before paying bridewealth, the widow goes back to her parents. The inheritor is required to negotiate and pay bridewealth and then marry the woman.
But if bridewealth was already paid, the chosen inheritor visits the woman one evening for a ritual called 'riwo', which means join together or unite. The woman prepares supper – chicken is the preferred delicacy – and eats with the man and children, if any. The man spends the night in the woman's house and consummates the marriage.
From then on, everyone knows who the inheritor is and there will be no interference.
"Okoth's widow is still unclean because all the rituals have not been done," Kusimba says.
The elders who are calling for inheritance are jumping the gun. They are acting too quickly, the scholar says.

The hits keep coming for Ellen DeGeneres.
Lea Thompson backs up Brad Garrett's claim that Ellen DeGeneres treated people 'horribly': 'True story'
email@example.com (Claudia Willen) 45 mins ago 8/1/20
Lea Thompson agreed with Brad Garrett's claim that it was "common knowledge" that Ellen DeGeneres mistreated people. Garrett said on Twitter Friday that the reportedly toxic work environment at "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" "comes from the top."
He added that it's "common knowledge" that the host treated people "horribly."
The "Back to the Future" actress responded to Garrett's comment and wrote, "True story. It is."
Lea Thompson seconded Brad Garrett's claim that it was "common knowledge" that Ellen DeGeneres mistreated people on her show.
Amid negative reports containing accounts from current and former employees describing a toxic work environment on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," the talk-show host penned a letter to staffers personally apologizing to anyone who felt they weren't treated with respect and saying she hadn't been able to closely manage the show as it grew in recent years.
On Friday, the "Everybody Love Raymond" actor, who's appeared on the "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" multiple times, tweeted a link to Variety's article about her letter and called out the talk-show host for her role in the allegations.
"Sorry but it comes from the top @TheEllenShow Know more than one who were treated horribly by her. Common knowledge," he wrote.

1. I really have not been following this. How did Brad Garrett get involved in this?
Are the claims that she (Ellen) did not control what happened on her show, including some who abused or sexually harrassed staff? Or are there claims that Ellen herself was abusive? Why would Brad Garrett be the source/end-all/Know-all about this?
Admittedly, I tune out of most things celebrity-related especially lately, but I keep seeing mentions of this and am clueless...?

3. I don't know where he got his information. But evidently it was credible enough that Warner media

has done an internal investigation.
Here's an article about it.
Updated: 8/2 Just saw this article. It mentions 2 situations Garrett has interacted with Ellen;
Garrett and DeGeneres both voiced characters in Finding Nemo and Finding Dory. He has also made multiple appearances on her show over the years promoting projects.
Garretts comments followed Australian radio host Neil Breen recalling a bizarre encounter from 2013 when he was told by Ellen producers not to look at her ahead of an interview.

2. I never watched Ellen much in the past, but in the last few years I became a regular viewer.
But then I stopped. It bothered me the way she would treat people. There was a sense of bullying sometimes especially with her staff members. It also bothered me that she seemed to delight in peoples mishaps, like in the games. She appeared to get pure enjoyment over people's failures. Even when she had some "star" on as a guest, there was a sense of one upmanship, always challenging them to some contest of who's the best; unless it was a really, really big star like Pres Obama, Cher or Oprah. She even took pokes at Michelle Obama in the supermarket skit. I thought at times it bordered on disrespectful. She has a very competitive nature, which is fine, but as the host of a show don't always try to one up your guests.
I don't know, maybe I'm being too critical, but these revelations don't surprise me.
I do give her a lot of credit for speaking out for the LGBT community, she has done a lot to bring important issues to the forefront. I'm don't doubt that overall she is a good and caring person. But sometimes her persona is just kind of cruel.

4. Same feelings here.
And whats with trying to scare everyone out of their skin?
Ive long thought she has drunk the celebrity icon Kool-Aid and places herself waaaaay above others. I know, I know, she gives away cash and prizes to deserving people (always from sponsors), but its been feeling like an act for me for sometime. Her show has become one big promotion for her other projects and social media outlets and she wastes no time telling others how she is friends with other celebrities.Just my opinion.

Remove customer login title on all Magento 1 pages
When dealing with Magento login form in custom themes, often our all page title will become "Customer login".
We can easily solve this issue by editing a Magento core file.
To do so, first we want to copy
Login.php file from
app/code/core/Mage/Customer/Block/Form/ and paste this file in our local code pool with same directory structure like
In that file, we can see that there is protected function _prepareLayout. In that function, we have a
setTitle method in a line.
protected function _prepareLayout()
$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->setTitle(Mage::helper('customer')->__('Customer Login'));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
Now we just want to comment out this line & that is enough.
protected function _prepareLayout()
//$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->setTitle(Mage::helper('customer')->__('Customer Login'));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
Then reindex data, refresh the cache and reload the store view page again.

| An advanced version of the SPAS-12 shotgun made from the new thermostable ARES alloy. It can be outfitted with either Buckshot or Slugs depending on the circumstances. It has proven effective in the war against the zombies.
- Weapon description
SPAS-12-Ares is an Ares variant of SPAS-12 shotgun in CrossFire.
This weapon is released along with CrossFire 2.0 update.
The SPAS-12 Ares is a shotgun that can use both powerful 12 Gauge slug shells and regular buckshot shells. It has a black-silver-red color color pattern. It has a higher capacity of 11 shells (+3) and its pellets have stronger firepower than the original weapon.
By pressing secondary fire key (or RMB), this gun will change the ammunition from buckshot shells to slugs or in reverse. The player can only chamber a single slug shell, so after firing the slug the gun will immediately switch to buckshot. No ammunition is lost when swapping shells.
The shotgun does high damage when using buckshot in short range. The slugs do tremendous damage in any range: able to 1 hit kill at any part of the body at close-medium range, while at long range it takes 2 arm or leg shots to kill. The regular shells have spread due to them being pellets, but the slugs are solid bullets so they will fire into a single point without any spread.
As a drawback this weapon has a slightly slower rate of fire than the original SPAS-12.
- High damage dealing.
- Very high damage dealing on slug shell.
- Moderate accuracy.
- High accuracy on slug shell.
- Moderate recoil.
- High magazine capacity.
- Can be fired while reloading.
- Can perform reload-cancel.
- Full wallbang damage on slug shell.
- Very narrow pellet spreading. (Slug only)
- Capable to switch slug shell.
- Very small crosshair. (slug only)
- Damage loses on long range.
- Slow rate of fire.
- Wide pellet spreading on buckshot.
- Requires long time to do a full reload.
- Huge crosshair on buckshot.
Available in all versions that has already updated to CrossFire 2.0.
- This gun comes with less spare ammo than its original counterpart (3 mags vs. 4). But due to the increased ammo capacity, it holds more total rounds than SPAS-12 (44 vs. 40)
- Again, this gun has inconsistency ammo capacity in CrossFire Vietnam.
