Prudence and Robustness as Explanations for Precautionary Savings; an Evaluation
This paper evaluates approximation methods to make manageable the numerical solution of overlapping generation models with aggregate risk. The paper starts with a model in which households maximize expected utility over their life cycle. Instantaneous utility is characterized by constant relative risk aversion. Prudence, a characteristic of the utility function, leads to precautionary saving. The first-order conditions include expectations. One source of uncertainty is not prohibitive for numerical integration of the expectation term. Because of its accuracy numerical integration results are used as a bench mark. Taylor series approximations can lead to the same results dependent on the linearization point. A linear quadratic approximation of the household model is evaluated subsequently. Alternatively, precautionary saving effects can be the result of robust decision making. This approach leads to linear policy functions and gives a rather good approximation of the bench mark model, although not as good as the Taylor series approximation.

Super Bowl commercials are known as the supreme royalty of the advertising world, but simply getting a spot during the Big Game isn't enough; you still have to find a way to stand out. Audi did just that during the 2008 championship, when it debuted a Godfather-inspired spot that stole the show by relying almost exclusively on the Audi R8's breathtaking, almost sinister-looking exterior.
The 2009 Audi R8 is an ultra-sleek, ultra-exotic sports coupe that gets a new trim level for 2010. Cars.com reports that the standard V-8-powered R8 remains as the base model, and Audi adds "V-10 models, called R8 5.2 FSI Quattro." The name may not be elegant, but the R8's styling sure is. Car and Driver is impressed by the "avant-garde" styling, and Edmunds notes that the visual upgrades to the V-10 R8's "just add more badass-edness to the way" the car looks. The 2010 Audi R8 appears to exist solely to attack roads-not drive on them, but pummel them into submission. What's most impressive about the styling is that Audi achieves the look not by throwing together a bunch of sharp angles, but by utilizing a "soft curvature of the hood and roof [that is] drawn together in one sweeping arc," as Kelley Blue Book describes it. They go on to declare that the Audi R8 is completely unique and "styled unlike anything else on the road, with sweeping arcs and muscular lines that are more suited to a concept car than a road-going one." In terms of distinctions between the V-8 and V-10 models, Automobile Magazine reports that the V-10s get "flared sideblades, extended sills, a larger rear diffuser, standard LED headlamps...and more chrome for the single-frame grille." The sideblades are one of the Audi R8's most distinguishing features, but Cars.com points out that they're more than simply aesthetic-they serve to "route air to the engine," which is situated behind the driver. The new 2010 Audi R8 simply appears so damn cool that Kelley Blue Book feels it "might not look out of place in the year 2109."
Audi began designing the R8 with the intention of making it a feasible as a daily driver, and reviews read by TheCarConnection.com show that they've succeeded in creating a comfortable cockpit. Kelley Blue Book says "the controls couldn't be easier to reach and operate," and while Automobile considers the cabin to be "somewhat overstyled," ConsumerGuide appreciates that the "dashboard design mimics that of other Audis." The interior isn't without its flaws, however, as ConsumerGuide points out that the "CD changer mounts above the center floor tunnel just behind the seats," an awkward position no matter how flexible you may be. There are few interior differences between the two versions of the 2010 R8; Edmunds asserts that the only real change is the fact that "the top of the gearshift knob, speedo and tachometer also come etched with a red accent circle."

The Secret of Inner Strength
A great quote from William Tyndale:
"Christ is never strong in us until we are weak. As our strength diminishes, the strength of Christ grows in us. When we are entirely emptied of our own strength, then we are full of Christ's strength. As much as we retain of our own, we lack of Christ."

A few days ago I made a post about wanting to reboot my life in a way. Well today I'm proud to say that I have begun the process of this "reboot" and it's been great! I'm feeling much happier, more positive and I find it a bit easier to overcome problems that once would overcome me…
It has only been a few days since this transition however it's been a good one so far. I started this process last Friday and began with throwing out bad memories, emotions and negative thoughts. I also spent the weekend working on the house and throwing out old things we no longer needed.
Yesterday I spent the day with the family enjoying mother's day, made the wife and kids ribs on the BBQ and helped my oldest bake a cake with home made icing. We had a great weekend full of fun and jokes.
We practiced driving with my oldest, some photography lessons and talking about what's going on in our lives.
Today I was playing pool on iMessage with my middle daughter while we sent funny faces to each other via Snapchat, I enjoy being he fun father when I can.
Life is good and it's way too short to be living it with pointless problems. I want to enjoy my days on this earth with my family and make more happy memories.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Can I just give the seller the item back? Can the court force me to pay her, can they force me to sell other items that are necessary for me to make a living? I don't have much in the way of assets and am barely scraping by in these hard times. The seller has been quite threatening towards me. I would really like to just give the item back but the seller states they don't want it back. If that is my only option can I make them take it back instead of continuing the payments? thanks
This is an excellent opportunity to utilize the mediation process with a third party mediator. You can often obtain free to low cost mediation on such matters. It would appear that both parties would benefit from understanding how a mediated settlement would serve the best interest of all.
Shawn Jackson - Business Development AttorneyAsk a similar question
No, you cannot force a seller to take back an item in lieu of payment of your debt. You promised to make payments, and if you fail to do so the seller can obtain a court judgment against you. Once judgment has been entered, the judgment creditor can seize your assets and garnish your wages to collect the money you owe.
There are, however, limits on asset seizures and wage garnishments. But if the creditor obtains a judgment against you, figuring out what those limits are and how to enforce them may be difficult. At that point your best bet may be to protect your assets through bankruptcy.Ask a similar question
I agree with Attorney Barnes! Mediation will not work where you have no legal right to withhold payment.
My name is Stephen R. Cohen and have practiced since 1974. I practice in Los Angeles and Orange County, CA. These answers do not create an attorney client relationship. My answers may offend I believe in telling the truth, I use common sense as well as the law. Other state's laws may differ.. There are a lot of really good attorneys on this site, I will do limited appearances which are preparation of court documents it is , less expensive. However generally I believe an attorney is better than none, but many will offer a free consultation and a face to face meeting generally will be better, I like my clients to write a short one page history of the fact and questions they have prior to meeting with them, so nothing is forgotten.Ask a similar question
Well, mediation, whether to establish or refute liability...or to make payment arrangements ...or simply to come up with other reasonable solutions is ALWAYS an option for disputing parties...and there are several no cost and low cost mediation services throughout the State.

Back in April, we wrote about a program that can save you some big bucks on eBay by allowing you to search for misspellings of the item that you're looking for. The benefit and the savings come from the fact that the majority of people who spell the search correctly won't come across the misspelled listing. Just like the programs designed for eBay, there are several websites that are dedicated to those "fat finger" airfare discounts; the ones that are clearly a mistake and only around for a short time.
So what are these "Fat Finger" websites? First of all, Fat Finger for those unfamiliar means typo. Yes, the deals are brought to you simply because of human error, and other humans pointing out those errors. But of course, they are mistakes and so they typically don't last very long! People are very aware these mistakes exist and will make sure they seek them out, and when they find those errors – they let everyone know.
One website that searches for those cheap "fat finger" flights is Cheapflights.com. They rely on those serious people that are always out for a bargain to come across the errors in tickets. It works by the traveler telling them where they want to go. After the destination is given, Cheapflights will work to find you a good possible match. You're never actually buying through the website, rather you're directed to the actual website of the airline or the web address where the "typo" was found.
Thus far in the history of Cheapflights.com, they've had quite the set of deals like no cost flights (excluding taxes). It's one of those things where you have to be there at the right place at the right time to take advantage of the mistake, kinda like the lottery.
If you'd like to check out Cheapflights.com, you can click here and begin your search.

Jean-Daniel and Fabienne Héring run this 10ha family domaine based in the higgledy-piggledy, picturesque town of Barr. The estate includes a sizeable holding in Grand Cru Kirchberg (cherry hill) which rises above the town, where they grow Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer. Just above it is the prettily named Rosenegert lieu-dit, where they co-plant four different varieties (Riesling for freshness, Gewurz for the floral notes, Pinot Gris to give weight and Muscat for what Fabienne calls le croquant crunchiness) and vinify them together to give a fruit-filled mouthful.. Sensibly priced, interesting wines worth a visit.
Useful information: The USA is an important export market for the Hérings so English is not a problem. They have a new tasting room especially for groups up to 50, situated below the Kirchberg vineyard.

Goose liver, a delicacy called foie gras, is the fatty liver of a goose. A widely consumed meat in Europe, goose liver is sold in cans in the U.S. Find the cans in gourmet shops or buy them online.
Canned Goose Liver
Goose liver sandwich meat, labeled as foie gras, is made from canned goose liver. The liver comes from geese that are force-fed a diet of crushed corn grains to make their liver fatty and flavorful. After the liver is harvested, it can be canned while raw or poached -- boiled -- and prepared using different methods that alter its texture and flavor.
Making a Sandwich
To make a goose liver sandwich, remove the liver from the can and place it onto a clean cutting board. Cut off any fat with a warm, sharp knife. Carefully cut the liver into thin slices. If you are having problems cutting whole slices with a knife, use unflavored dental floss by holding both ends of a strand tightly between your hands and slicing the liver downward. Butter one side of two pieces of bread. Using one to two thin slices of goose liver for each sandwich, place the slices on one piece of bread, on the butter side, and cover with the other bread slice. Trim the crust and cut the sandwiches into four squares or stamp out different shapes with a sharp cookie or biscuit cutter. Serve immediately.

text: World 19 June 2008 Wall on the wild side Journeying north from Beijing, Robert Macfarlane discovers a leafy reminder of humanity's fragile ex Sign up for our weekly email * I spent last autumn and winter living in Beijing, my second long stint in the city. My activities included eating, writing, teaching and walking. Not a bad set of gerunds to live by. But come mid-November, I was beginning to miss the British landscape. The symptoms were all there: listening to Vaughan Williams, reading John Buchan, and spending hours on British weather-forecasting sites. The diagnosis was unmistakable: nostalgia in the 19th-century sense of the word - a missing of one's homeland. And the cure? Well, as I couldn't go home, I needed to get out of Beijing. So I made plans to head "up country", one of those Raj-style phrases that sets my spine tingling with a mixture of excitement and imperial guilt. My father was visiting, so I decided that we would travel north to the mountains, and spend a day on the wild wall. The wild wall. The phrase was coined by the British sinologist and explorer William Lindesay to describe those sections of the Great Wall of China that haven't been officially "restored". And, by that rule, most of the surviving wall is wild, as only a fraction of its immense length has been reconstructed. In the deserts of Xinjiang, the grass steppes of Mongolia and the plains of Shanxi, thousands of miles of the wall are lapsing back into the landscape, eroded by earthquake, wind, freeze-thaw and plant growth. A few days before my father and I travelled to the wall, the first snows fell on the mountains. About the same time, braziers were being lit on the Beijing roadsides to roast sweet chestnuts by the hundred in deep cast-iron woks. In that winter atmosphere, my father and I drove north out of Beijing. Within an hour we were up into Miyun County, much of which is taken up by a reservoir the size of a small English shire, which supplies most of Beijing's water. From Miyun, the ground steepened, the road began to climb, and the temperature dropped. We reached Mutianyu - a restored section of the wall - by ten in the morning. The restoration there has been done handsomely, with greystone masonry, sharp and regular crenellations, and white, limey mortar. The restored section runs for more than three continuous miles, and at times the wall is wide enough for four horses to ride abreast down it. If you squint so that the chairlift disappears, and if you clamp your hands over your ears to shut out the piped Chinese muzak, you might just get a sense of how the wall looked in its defensive prime midway through the reign of the Ming dynasty. Dad and I walked for two miles west along the restored wall, labouring up what felt like, and probably was, thousands of brick steps to reach a high watchtower. The last section was on a near-vertical ladder, and we popped up into the watchtower like gophers. At the western end of the watchtower was an open doorway, half-blocked with a metal sign. "No Tourist!" it read, and "Wall Not Restored Past Point". There was a diagram showing a man being crushed by falling rocks. To my father and me, it was an unmistakable invitation to proceed. So we ducked under the low lintel of the doorway, squeezed past the sign, and found ourselves entering another world. The wall beyond the sign was shattered, steep and fissile under foot. The bricks here, 400 years old or more, were rounded as used bars of soap. The thick mortar was crumbling, white and fractious. To either side of us the ground fell steeply away into oak, walnut and prunus forest, and snow lay in windrows between the trees, white against brown. A light wind rattled the last hanging oak leaves like copper charms. But the forest did not stop at the wall's foot. No! It had marched on up on to the wall itself - achieving what the Mongols never did. The summit of the wall was thick with scrub and trees. We had to duck, push and scrape our way along it. Vegetation was rife. A blond, punk-headed grass flourished at ankle level. Weeds rioted in every cranny and fissure. There were ring-barked cherry saplings, and a spiny scrub that might have been acacia, with thorns long as sail needles and sharp as snakes' teeth. We were, I realised, walking through a linear forest. The Great Wall had here become the great hedge. Nature was gradually and thoughtlessly dismantling what human beings had gradually and conscientiously put together. A mile or so on, we stopped in a watchtower, and each sat astride a crumbling crenellation, eating bread and crisps, watching the land. Away to our south, I could dimly see Beijing in its dark halo of smog, like an extraterrestrial city that generated its own atmosphere. It was a city - with its near-birdless skies and its pollution-thickened water and air - from which the wild had been almost totally rinsed by human action. I looked back along the shattered wall, with its prospering wildwood. It reminded me of other human structures, from other epochs, that were now sinking back into the land and being reclaimed by wildness. Perhaps such abandoned places provide us with visions of the future. For as the climate warms and as human populations begin to fall, increasing numbers of settlements and structures will be abandoned. Inland drought and rising sea levels on the coasts will force exoduses. And wildness, in the form of vegetable and faunal life, will return to these forsaken places. As my father and I pushed our way back down through the wooded wall, I thought of what the poet and forester Gary Snyder said in his book The Practice of the Wild. "A ghost wilderness hovers around the entire planet," Snyder wrote there. "The millions of tiny seeds of vegetation . . . hiding in the mud on the foot of an arctic tern, in the dry desert sands, or in the wind . . . each ready to float, freeze or be swallowed, but always preserving the germ."

GO HERE to see the BEST BABY FIRST CHRISTMAS GIFTS IDEAS!
Baby's first Christmas gifts are much more important to the new mom and dad. You and I know that newborns could not care less and won't for a very long time! This makes it even more crucial to buy items that look spectacular in the pictures that you treasure in your family picture album. Another thing to consider is that it is preferable to buy items that will last until your baby boy or girl are old enough to want to see what they got from Santa Claus on their very first Christmas morning.
Here's a secret tip that I will share with you in regards to baby Christmas gifts. There are a few presents that may seem that they are for mom and dad, but they are for the baby, too.
Certainly you may want to tuck a few baby christmas outfits in a baby boy's Christmas gifts, a baby faux fur coat or boots or one of the beautiful Christmas theme velvet baby dresses that you found in a baby girl's gift basket, but without a doubt the real gift that counts for baby's first Christmas will be the pictures and movies.
Here are some practical baby Christmas gifts ideas that will have the whole family shouting "Merry Christmas" and giving you kisses under the mistletoe.
- A digital camera
- A video camera with extra film cartridges to capture those precious memories on film
- Gift certificates for having those digital photographs transferred to mugs and pictures that you can frame and give to the grandparents
- Collectible baby's first Christmas ornaments
- A certificate for a family portrait with a local artist or photographer
- Large Family Photo Albums
- Baby Picture frames filled with pictures of your memories
- A baby keepsake box where items can be safely stored for the future
The goal of our series of baby first Christmas gift ideas is to give family members some suggestions on appropriate items that both parents and their kids will enjoy. Infants don't have a clue as to what the holidays are about and won't for many years. The key is to preserve those memories until they are curious about their early years. Think how much fun they will have sharing those memories with your grandkids or even your great-grandchildren. Keepsakes, collectibles and heirloom quality clothing will make little if any impression on babies. But preserving them with dates, labels and pertinent information will be ever so important for the generations that follow.
If you have some
baby first Christmas gifts ideas
that you can share with our visitors, we would love to hear from you. In the meantime, please return to Unique Baby Gifts Baskets, Kids Stuff and Party Ideas to see more recommendations for the best baby Christmas gifts ever.

How did we end up with these two complete psychopaths?
Most Helpful Guy
Simple: only crazy people can survive in modern American politics. The way our political system works is that only the most crafty, dishonest, and deceitful people can make it. All of the nice people trying to make a difference get weeded out somewhere in the election cycle.
Enter my uncle, Mayor of his town in Massachusetts. One day when we were sitting around the table venting about our frustrations with the way our local government worked, he decided to enter politics. First he just raised support for people he liked, but eventually he decided to run for mayor, which he did so successfully. When he entered office things changed drastically though, he was attacked from all sides by people who didn't like the changes he was making. People who were making 70k a year as a part time janitor at the community center suddenly found their jobs being threatened, and people who were on the local payroll that did absolutely nothing of value started to emerge from the woodwork and attack him. He had his house vandalized multiple times, he was punched by a protestor at a speech, a brick was thrown in the window of his car, and every time he gave a speech there were people protesting him. No matter what he did someone in the government wasn't happy (although the people in the town didn't seem to care or were happy with what he was doing, unless they were connected to the angry people in some way). He told me himself that it didn't matter what the people thought in his job, it mattered what all the people in the government thought. All of the high level officials, were the ones giving him the problems. My uncle was just one man, he had hundreds of people harassing him with everything he did and he couldnt deal with it. People he never met in his life suddenly became bitter enemies overnight because they decided they didn't like something he was doing. That is in essence what modern politics are, my uncle is a great guy, I love him to death. He couldnt make it in US politics, he couldnt handle the constant verbal abuse, the physical violence, the craziness, he is a normal guy that isn't used to that kind of stuff and so he chose not to run again when his term expired. These two idiots are what happens when you have a system like what we have, where either way you are harassed. The harassing party is always going to do more damage than the supporters. My uncle had the support of many people in the local government and in the town, but a small vocal minority made his life hell10|11|0
The only people that can put up with people constantly harassing you are pure idiots, and these two go about it different ways. Trump is a loud idiot who is obnoxious about it, and Clinton is an idiot who lies and cheats her way out of things. Personally I'm voting for Trump, at least you know in what ways he is an idiot, he is very vocal so what you see is what you get. Clinton hides everything and is incredibly prone to lying about things, you dont know what you are getting with that one, and she is bought out by big companies anyway unlike Trump who is mostly self funded.

In the beginning of any friendship/dating or whatever, for the most part I am my usual outgoing self but once in a while I get a bit of anxiety (I warn everyone ahead of time, It's usually just fear kicking in and I feel the need to run away, that nothing lasts forever and it's going to end in another goodbye), I don't ever over react, I usually just let them know I need to be alone for a bit (a day, a cpl hours), usually until I calm myself (I've had separation anxiety since childhood and losing my father at 15 made it difficult for me to let people get close to me, however, once I'm comfortable and relax in time, I no longer have that anxiety) .. Some guys are understanding and supportive, others have no understanding for it at all --- what's your initial response/attitude when someone you've known for say a month starts showing signs of anxiety but still keeps herself under control - do you assume she's needy and run? Are you understanding that she is an independent person that maybe just needs someone once in a while to reassure her?
Is anxiety a turn off?

If you love the southerndoe deer as much as we do, then you'll love our idea to add a southerndoe decal to your brand new agenda, planner, or calendar for the upcoming school year! We found the Monthly Calendar pictured above at Target and then added the southerndoe decal to the front of it.
If you are a Retail Partner, the southerndoe decal looks great on your storefront window. And if you are a Customer, the decals are perfect for your car window. Being that southerndoe was founded in Florida - we experience a lot of hot, muggy days and thunderstorms. In true southerndoe fashion, our decal seems to withstand it all.
So what are you going to add your decal to? Be sure to share it with us on Facebook or Instgram by hashtagging #southerndoedecal and tagging us @southerndoe. Or you can email us the picture and we will be sure to share it. We love seeing pictures!

Don't HATE, its just a different shade!
"Racism is beyond common sense and has no place in our society"
We all are human beings,
We all born, live and die,
We have right to live, speak, recreate, work and study.
Racism is a problem that happens every day. It divides us up into colored groups, and that shouldn't be happening. Racism is something you learn and not something you are born with.

My Dog, My Self
By N.R. KLEINFIELD
Published: October 17, 1993
Andrea Grill gets reminded often enough that there are less maddening places to raise Curry (and Midnight before her) than a sparse 15th-floor apartment in Murray Hill. Dizzy with a raging fever and flu, she had to go walk her. When she fractured her pelvis last fall, she had to hire a walker at $5 a walk twice a day. The walker did not do nights, so she had to pay another service $15 for a night walk. The Fourth of July fireworks mean a trip to the vet for tranquilizers. When it snows, the salt sprinkled on sidewalks burns the paws, and so she has to swaddle Curry's feet in plastic bags. Don't ask about the elevator operator's strike. Midnight had worms every summer for thee years and had to visit the vet every few weeks. Curry has worms right now.
"Yes, it would really be nice if we all lived on farms with trees," said Ms. Grill, an advertising copywriter. "But some of us have to live in crummy studio apartments with no view. I really love her, and I couldn't live without her. For me, not having a dog is like not having a refrigerator."
Few dog owners must take as much time and trouble to keep their pets as New Yorkers. The vicissitudes are not absurd if you occupy a house in Queens or Brooklyn. Keeping a dog becomes an art, however, if you dwell in an apartment, and there are those who would argue forcefully that it's cruel to expect an animal to accept such circumstances, where there's no backyard, it's ridiculously noisy and it's rare to get a chance to maul the mailman. Nevertheless, an ardent dog culture pervades the city. The undiluted joy of the companionship and protection of a dog seems to call forth that amalgam of insouciance and ingenuity that affirms one's standing as a New Yorker.
Some of the things that are known about dogs in New York: the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals guesses that as many as two million to three million dogs live in the city (only 140,000 are legally licensed, undoubtedly making New York home to the largest population of outlaw dogs anywhere); every year in late September, the Corner Bookstore at 93d Street and Madison Avenue, which really likes dogs, holds a dog party, drawing more than 200 dogs that get to eat freeze-dried liver; no dogs at all are allowed on Roosevelt Island, not even to visit, because the developers want it fastidiously clean; many dog owners leave their televisions on while they are at work to keep their dogs company (talk shows and game shows seem to work best); many drug dealers keep pit bulls, especially to patrol crack houses, and they often have their claws removed and their vocal chords slit to transform them into silent guards.
The obstacles notwithstanding, dog experts feel that there is no reason not to have a dog in New York, even in the squeezed confines of Manhattan. Just use some sense.
"In New York City, I would avoid the hyperactive, nervous dog," said Roger Caras, the president of the A.S.P.C.A. "Lock them up in an apartment and they go crazy. If you've got small kids, the all-time best dog is the Labrador retriever. Or the golden retriever. The greyhound is wonderful with kids if you exercise them a lot. A bulldog is great with kids, but you have to have air-conditioning because the heat kills it."
As it happens, big dogs frequently make better apartment dogs than small dogs. Terriers, for instance, were bred to catch rats and seem perpetually in motion. If a terrier spies a cockroach scurrying under the sink, it will try to dig up the floor. On the other hand, while a Great Dane is like having a U-haul in your apartment, it spends much of the time lying down peaceably. "I know people who have a swimming pool in their living room," Mr. Caras said. "There are apartments where you can have a horse."
It is wise to have a dog that barks to point out the terrorist on your window ledge. It is unwise to have a dog that does nothing but bark, or else your neighbors will turn into terrorists. Jack Russell terriers, for example, make a hobby out of barking.
And some dogs are entirely too touchy to feel happy in New York. "I have a border collie who is so intelligent that I expect him to read to me at any minute," Mr. Caras said. "And he goes berserk when there's noise." The Dog at Play
A sticky but still agreeable evening, just past 8:30, and most of the regulars were out: Shadow, a Labrador; King, a Doberman; Mickey, a blend of shepherd and collie; George, a cocker spaniel. Arriving now were Ms. Grill and Curry, her German shepherd. The dogs were oozing excitement.
Like children, dogs need to socialize, and the city's parks are replete with formal and informal play groups. Here at St. Vartan's Park, a pastoral fragment on 36th Street hard by the Queens Midtown Tunnel, Ms. Grill and the others congregate nightly.
The leashes came off (breaking a rarely enforced law; the Parks Department says it doesn't have enough people to give tickets and the ones it has don't like ticketing dog owners), and the dogs began to zip around. The adults, arrayed in a circle, chatted. "So, is your sister any better?" "Did you get the kids McDonald's tonight?" "You won't believe this bitch in heat I ran into today."
One owner brought a ball for her dog. Another dog preferred plastic water bottles.

Nynas has now completed the takeover of the former Shell refinery in Hamburg, Germany.
"The addition of Harburg to the Nynas supply network is an important step forward in Nynas' growth strategy," says Gert Wendroth, President and CEO of Nynas AB.
The Nynas Harburg refinery will have a production capacity of specialty oils up to 330,000 tons. In addition it will offer a wide range of penetration bitumen for Nynas' customers in Europe. A new bitumen truck loading facility planned to be operational by mid-2016 will be the final step in improving the refinery infrastructure. Currently the distillation unit in the northern part of the refinery is being converted and upgraded to start up again in spring 2016.
On September 2, 2013, the European Commission had approved the takeover of the facilities leading as a first step to the integration of the base oil plant with some 90 employees into Nynas in January 2014. With the completion of the acquisition another 157 employees transfer from Shell to Nynas.

New main window layout
The controls layout on the main application window was reorganized to simplify customization. The schedule and calendar controls were moved to the Calendar area that can be collapsed if you prefer to work with a plain list of tasks. Space for the Machine Queue view was expanded, so it becomes easier to manage data on it.
Improved the Machine Queue editor
The Machine Queries and Machine Queue editors, used in previous versions or the application, were merged into the single editor. On the left side of this editor you can select available machines, groups of machines and machine queues and move required elements to the right side in order to use them as targets of the registry export and merge operations. If you like, you can create new machine queries directly in the right side of the editor, that represents the configured Current Queue. Also you can preview a list of PCs reported by the Current Queue on the Effective Queue Structure tab.
New and improved features
Features below were firstly introduced or significantly improved in this release:
- Added a feature that allows to specify if the results of a registry export should be merged into a single file or an individual file should be created for each registry export condition
- Added a feature to execute re-enumeration of Machines and enumeration of new Machines in the network, specific groups or active directory containers using pop-up menu items in the Network Browser view
- Added an option to wrap descriptions in the Task Execution Results and Application Log views
- Optimized system resources usage
- Improved event details pane in the Task Execution Results and Application Log views

On April 27, Allscripts fired its chairman Phil Pead and three board directors resigned in protest, revealing a large management fracture just under two years after the company merged with Eclipsys in a deal to create a medical data powerhouse. Allscripts CEO Glen Tullman said that the departures were a result of a differing vision for the company after its August 2010 merger with Eclipsys, on a call discussing earnings with analysts. While former chairman Pead came from Eclipsys, Tullman was a holdover from Allscripts. Tullman also said that the resignations of directors Catherine Burzik, Eugene Fife, a former Eclipsys board chairman, and Edward Kangas, board chairman of Tenet Healthcare ( THC) and a former Eclipsys board member, didn't come as a result of a takeover bidder or large strategic changes. On April 30, Allscripts shareholder HealthCor Partners Management called for Tullman to resign and for the company to consider all options including an outright sale, in a letter to the company. Allscripts reported a near 70% drop in first quarter profits, signaling poor execution in its post-merger bid to take advantage of billions in government healthcare spending and an industry shift to electronic record keeping. Allscripts forecast its 2012 earnings at 74 to 80 cents a share, compared with a projection of $1.06 to $1.10 in February. First-quarter net income fell to $5.8 million, or 3 cents a share, on revenue of $364.7 million, missing estimates of $387.6 million in sales, according to estimates compiled by Bloomberg. "A number of our clients and prospects delayed commitments as they wait for us to introduce new releases and demonstrate more robust integration," said Tullman in the company's earnings statement. "This dynamic, combined with the recent reorganization of our sales and service teams, were the primary factors that caused sales to be lower than our expectations." Allscripts also said that its CFO Bill Davis will resign effective May to join another company in a move the company said wasn't related to its earnings. Seven analysts downgraded Allscrpits shares on the day of its earnings and board change announcements, according to Bloomberg data. That data shows that analysts give Allscripts shares a price target of $11.35, on four buy ratings, 18 holds and two sells. Still to be seen is whether a poison pill will dissuade hostile bidders or activists from pushing for a sale of Allscripts. On Monday, Martin Marietta said it would challenge the Delaware court ruling against its pursuit of Vulcan Materials, signaling a continued push to complete the hostile deal. In making a $2.6 billion tender offer for CVR Energy ( CVI), activist investor Carl Icahn got his
first 2012 success when the refiner removed its poison pill. On Monday, Icahn's $15 a share tender was accepted after shareholders voted in favor of his hostile bid. For more on hostile bids, see why 2012 deals hinge on Goldman Sach's idea of fairness . Also see why a kinder, gentler activist emerged in recent Nook and AOL deals with Microsoft for more on shareholder activism. See why timing is key in biotech takeovers for more on M&A ideas. -- Written by Antoine Gara in New York

text: 29 November 1999 1940 - The bridgehead of freedom Sign up for our weekly email * The fall of the Chamberlain Government saved this country, and with it the cause of European freedom, from utter defeat. For a few weeks after the collapse of the French army it was touch and go. But a new leadership, the hard work of the men and women in the armament factories, the endurance of our sailors and, above all, the skill of a few thousand pilots have thwarted Hitler's chances of victory this year. Instead of living perilously from day to day, we can now look forward and plan the strategy by which we can emancipate Europe from the Fuhrer. At the last hour, democracy has rebelled against the defeatism and complacency which were leading it to its destruction. Now that rebellion must be organised into an orderly offensive against our real enemy. The greatest achievement of the new Churchill-Labour Government has been its recognition of the nature of total war and its willingness to face the revolutionary changes which the waging of such a war implies. Mr Chamberlain and his friends were determined to fight the last war over again, although by doing so they nearly brought us to defeat. Mr Churchill is prepared, we believe, to sacrifice orthodox finance, diplomacy and antiquated military etiquette for the sake of victory. If victory entails a peaceful social revolution at home and a violent revolution abroad, he is not dismayed. He has the will to victory and the power to win the confidence of labour, and that in itself is a revolution after the epoch of Earl Baldwin and Ramsay MacDonald. What Mr Churchill lacks is a precise understanding of the revolutionary changes which modern war involves and it will be the function of his Labour colleagues to give content to the noble phrases which he used last Tuesday. In two spheres, in particular, will their collaboration be of special importance: first in our social policy at home, and second in our contacts with the people of Europe. At the moment, national unity is cemented by the threat of invasion and the ardours of air attacks. But during the winter months these perils will probably decrease, and only the blind optimist can believe that Hitler will have a monopoly of troubles on the Home Front. We too shall have a huge army, quartered often in lonely places and paid far less than the factory worker. We too shall have an industrial population suffering under the strain of the blackout, the air raid alarms and the increased cost of living. Our chief enemies will be the boredom and human frictions which are bound to plague the inhabitants of a beleaguered fortress. There will be restless movements among organised and unorganised labour and there will be defeatist tendencies among those classes for whom the social revolution of modern war means the destruction of privilege. What is needed is a positive social policy even while the war is on. Next winter we must not have another interim Budget but a financial policy based upon an economic plan; we must proceed to the nationalisation at least of transport and coal and to a new, democratic educational policy which brings the public schools within the national system of education. If Britain stagnates this winter, she will face the spring as divided and weakened as France was this year. Democracy must advance or perish. Meanwhile in Europe, we must be preparing the ground for the great offensive. We must use the winter to establish contact with revolutionary forces in every country and to persuade them that our cause is theirs. In its attitude to European revolution, the Government at present displays a lamentable lack of imagination. Europe will not spontaneously rise against the Nazis except under a leadership whose revolutionary zeal exposes the falsity of the so-called Nazi revolution. What shall be the aims of that revolution? On this point Mr Churchill prefers to remain silent, but silence is in itself the tacit admission of a policy. By not declaring its aims, the Cabinet lets it be understood that our object in this war is the restoration of those governments now in exile in this country and of the frontiers which Hitler violated. Possibly that is not the Cabinet's intention - but that is immaterial. As long as we do not propound our alternative to Hitler's New European Order, Europe will believe that our aim is the restoration of the Versailles order. For that, no people in Europe will fight. On the contrary, they will meet our armies, if they land, with cold hostility. We do not minimise the value of the assistance offered by the exiled Governments, but no Government in exile can represent its people adequately. It would be fatal to permit them to become the symbols of our European policy. That must rest on the solidarity of peoples, and that solidarity can only be created by a common faith and common objectives. The peoples of Europe will not throw off the Nazi yoke either for the sake of the British Empire or for that of their Governments in Britain. They want a Europe united and yet free, as radically different from the Europe of Versailles as the Britain of 1942 will be from that of 1939. Why do Mr Attlee and Mr Churchill unite in saying that the time is inappropriate for outlining our aims in Europe? Is it because they are still influenced by that insularity which caused us to fail so lamentably in our duty to Europe after 1918? Unless we can overcome this insularity we shall not accomplish the second stage of the democratic revolution. For that second stage is no longer a matter of domestic policies, but must be based on the recognition that the survival of our liberties depends upon the recovery of theirs by the other peoples of Europe, and that any future peace will demand intimate links between Britain and Europe. It is our fate to be the "bridgehead" of freedom, which unites the New World and the Old. Mr Churchill and his colleagues are developing our links with the New World. Their task will be incomplete, and victory will be beyond our grasp, unless they show the same vision towards the oppressed peoples of Europe.

"after three visits.."
About: Northwick Park Hospital Northwick Park Hospital Harrow HA1 3UJ
Posted by Anonymous
Yesterday I visited this hospitals A&E clinic for the third time in about 2 years. The problem was- I was finding it very difficult to walk/bend down/move at all after the night before I began having very bad pains up the back of my right leg. When approaching the reception I was greeted by a dismissive and rude woman who after confirming who I was; simply told me to 'go to the next window'.. then being greeted by another rude woman who asked me a series of questions and stated to get frustrated with me because she couldn't explain what she was trying to say. I stayed patient and polite as i know what it's like to have to deal with people all day every day and its very easy to take it out on one unlucky customer/patient. After sitting down and looking around the waiting room and back at the reception desk I'm greeted with staring and dirty looks from the female staff as if I'm in school again and they are the 'popular' crowd'. Again trying to ignore this- i wait for my name to be called and when it is, the nurse walking me to the room is looking me up and down as I'm walking- as if to say, looks like there's nothing wrong with you. After she does some tests on my leg spine and hip joints. She asks why I came here and not to my GP- I answer saying that my GP has a two week waiting list for appointments and I couldn't walk so obviously something was wrong. She then said I had a 'pulled hamstring, and its the doctors place to deal with it, not ours' .. I first of all- find that hilarious seeing as the pain came on after sitting in bed all day on my day off, also I find it astonishing that my NHS services as a whole are quite uncooperative about helping me in most circumstances- she prescribed nothing for the pain and told me in the future to go to my doctor despite this not being the first time if had this pain and it could have been linked to further health issues. absolutely appalled and felt that because I was a 20 year old girl, I got treated with disrespect and no real consideration. What a shambles. PS. I received the same treatment the first two visit's also. Disgusted.

As they continue to tighten their belt in this never-ending unpredictable market, Nokia is planning to close down its high-end Vertu handset business over in Japan – mainly due to some struggles it has been seeing of late over in the land of the rising sun.
Already, Nokia stopped selling their S40 and Symbian devices altogether over there, but they decided to keep around their Vertu business intact – well, all up until now. In fact, the Nikkei reports that the Finnish company will close down Vertu handset stores within Tokyo's Shibuya and Ginza districts by the end of July. Taking into consideration the prevalence amongst smartphones, Vertu's handsets are having a difficult time trying to secure business with the growing popularity of smartphones in general.
Vertu services will continue to operate until the end of August when their contract with NTT DoCoMo is expected to expire – thus, seemingly signaling the end of Vertu's presence in the country. However, its offices in Japan will continue to remain open until the end of the year – and then after, they'll be closed down as well.
