In the latest eurozone scare, fears that a Portuguese bank may go under and trigger another debt crisis sent stocks tumbling worldwide and caused investors to flee to safe-haven bonds and gold.
The widespread market panic started when Espírito Santo International (ESI), one of Portugal's largest companies, delayed short-term debt payments to private banking clients of a Swiss subsidiary on Wednesday, leaving investors concerned over ESI's solvency.
The Nasdaq dropped 0.6% while the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones industrial average were both down 0.5% on the stock market today. The euro weakened against the dollar.
The domino effect reached Banco Espírito Santo, 25% owned by ESI subsidiary Espírito Santo Financial Group. Shares of Lisbon-listed BES were suspended from trading Thursday after crashing over 17%. Shares of the Swiss unit, listed in Luxembourg, were also halted.
The Portuguese conglomerate reopened a wound across the eurozone with Iberian, German, French and British financial institutions all taking a beating. It also comes just months after Portugal exited its EU bailout and turned down a safety line of credit.
Spain's Banco Popular Espanol dipped 5% and stalled a planned debt issuance. An Italian drugmaker also pulled a stock offering, and a Spanish construction firm put off a bond deal.
The ESI repayment delay stems from past irregularities in its financial statements. In late May, an audit mandated by the Portuguese central bank revealed that ESI overvalued assets, omitted liabilities and gave a relaxed picture of risk exposure.
The central bank ordered the audit after it discovered that the conglomerate had sold over $8 million of debt to its own subsidiary, Espírito Santo Financial Group, heightening risk for investors.
Although the ESI case is not an isolated one, the damaging affects of problematic eurozone banks can be contained without spreading to the U.S., said Tu Packard, senior economist at Moody's Analytics, noting that the European Central Bank is moving toward a banking union.
"What you have to look at is whether the European Union has the resources to deal with it, and I would say that they do," she said.
But other analysts view a check on the market's pulse as possible precursor to a revival later.
"A stock market correction has been an ongoing concern, and maybe this is the catalyst," said Andrew Wilkinson, analyst at Interactive Brokers, in a note. "Perhaps we should be looking for the silver lining that such a cleansing would bring."

SQL Azure Database Copy! That really made me happy! I'm seriously running out of arguments to use my on-premise SQL...
Thanks for the great show! Cracked me up good this time! hahahaha!!!
I pity the fools who say you can't combine triple A stand-up comedy and azure service bus into one mix!
You guys rock!
Ha! "Now we didn't know a lot about Wade, prior to him being on the show..."
I can't wait to try the Perfmon viewer.
"Oh, I thought you needed that for the demo, sorry!"
LMAO! Legendary!
SQL Azure Database Copy is just what I've been looking for this week for one of our multi tenant systems!
You guys always seem to find a way to make it look like I'm watching something NSFW just as my boss walks by... but it's worth taking the hit on my annual review to enjoy the comedy duo of Smarx & Dunn. Great job guys!

eOn Communications Reports 2012 and Q1 2013 Profitability
Jan 11, 2013 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- eOn Communications Corp., a provider of telecommunications, access control, paging and data center solutions, announced fiscal year ended July 31, and quarter ended October 31, results.
In a release on January 7, the Company reported that total 2012 fiscal year income was $464,000 or $0.16 per common share compared to a loss of $1,380,000 or $0.48 per common share for fiscal year 2011. Included in fiscal year 2011 were one time charges for write off of capitalized software development of $916,000 and inventory reserve provisions of $762,000. First quarter fiscal 2013 income was $88,000.
eOn Systems and Cortelco In the U.S. eOn Communications Corp. has two business units: eOn Systems and Cortelco. The corporation's improved performance is in part attributable to de-emphasizing traditional voice-centric telephone systems and ACD platforms, and focusing on intelligent IP end-points, which include voice, as well as access control and network based paging solutions. This positions the corporation well in both the growing intelligent building and VoIP markets. In connection with this new direction, the company is leveraging technical resources from eOn Systems to identify and deliver products suitable for Cortelco's well established, nation-wide network of distributors. Cortelco distributors in turn sell to businesses, government agencies, schools, healthcare and other institutions. eOn Systems pre-tax losses over the past three years total $4,106,000. Cortelco's pre-tax earnings over the past three fiscal years total $3,780,000.
Cortelco Systems Puerto Rico Cortelco Systems Puerto Rico ("CSPR") became a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company on June 9, 2010 upon purchase of additional shares of their outstanding stock. CSPR focuses on technology integration solutions encompassing collaboration as well as data center efficiencies, network security and compliance. CSPR's other activities include IT consulting, disaster recovery, business continuity and private cloud computing solutions. CSPR's strategic partners include Cisco, McAffee, VMware, NetApp, Checkpoint, Mitel and Avaya. CSPR delivers solutions through its direct sales and highly trained technicians. CSPR's pre-tax earnings over the past three fiscal years total $715,000.
Cortelco Brand In conjunction with the above described focus, and increasing synergies among its business units, the Company intends, subject to stockholder approval, to change its corporate name from eOn Communications to Cortelco.
David Lee, Chairman of eOn's Board of Directors noted, "Recent positive results underscores our commitment to growth, profitability and increased stockholder value. The corporation's new focus puts us in a good position to maximize the opportunities in front of us."

Three potential itineraries through Sweden and/or Denmark (all ending in Goteborg)
I'm traveling to Sweden and/or Denmark in June 2012 with my wife and 8 month old daughter for about 9-10 days. We are renting a car and hope to see a mix of countryside, small towns, coastline, historic sights, natural beauty, and "must-sees" in the area. We want to spend time outdoors, but with a small baby, we can't do intense hikes, canoe trips, etc. Also, we'd like to spend some time in a big city or two, but also want to drive out and get away from the crowds.
I have three possible itineraries that I'm having trouble deciding on. For those who have been to Scandinavia, which option would you choose and why? And do you have any particular recommendations along each path? Also, I know each option goes almost all the way up to Oslo, but I am not inclined to go that far; seems like just another big, expensive city.
OPTION 1: Copenhagen -> Gothenburg (through Sweden)
Couple days in Copenhagen, take the ferry from Helsingor into Sweden. Malmo, Foteviken Viking Reserve, Ystad in the south, then swing up north along the coast. Go up to Stromstad, ferry into the Koster Islands, Tanum, Smogen, and Gothenburg the last couple of days.
OPTION 2: Copenhagen -> Gothenburg (through Denmark)
Couple days in Copenhagen, head west through Roskilde to Odense / Egeskov castle. Up to Aarhus, north to Frederikshavn, ferry over to Sweden. The second half is the same as option 1 (Stromstad, Tanum, Smogen, Gothenburg).
OPTION 3: Stockholm -> Gothenburg
Couple days in Stockholm, up to Sigtuna or Uppsala, stay in Orebro or a small town nearby. West to Lake Varnem, Lacko Slott, Uddevalla, Stromstad, The rest is the same as the other two options.
Travel by public transportation in Gothenburg
Hello, could you tell me whether the card is worth Gothenburg for 3 days if you arrive by plane or whether my card a 3-day range for the tram? Does anyone know what the cost tour buses in the city if no one has Gothenburg Card? Thank you, we fly on Friday!Thanks
Metal Fans
Hello, I am planning a weekend in Gothenburg, where I can celebrate good if I like Metal, where can I get great, unique, special metal discs (also sometimes second-hand) and where I eat very individual (fish or Swedish) Thank you for your info!
Christmas and Travel in Gothenburg
Im looking at spending Christmas in Gothenburg, 23-28th December. I would like to know if:
- shops and museums are open over this period
- Is the public transport still running
- Are bars and restaurants open
- Is Liseberg open, I have seen on a few websites it close on the 23rd but does it re-open?
- Any top attractions you would recommend
All info is appreciated
Ideas for/from Göteborg, this month
Hello everyone.
Will be in Göteborg, for 8 days next week onward. Would like it if you all can give me ideas &/or lead me to useful links on your/others pages.
A) What would be a good way to spend evenings (just for a stroll/a post-dinner walks)?
B) I may get a chance to do a day trip or two during this period. So please throw at me the options - interests: landscape; history; culture; OR a must-have local food preparation/meat; beer tasting.
Is an Oslo day-trip a good idea? I will use public transport.
Awaiting the responses!
Public Transport and other questions!
I'm coming to Goteborg in May for the Swedish Speedway Grand Prix with my 14 year old son...but trying to do it on a budget. We'll have two days to also discover Goteborg and I was thinking about going to the art galleries (which I think are free) and a few other central things....I have lots of questions!
1) What would be a good idea for something to do on a Sunday Morning in Goteborg?
2) I'm a bit confused about the public transport system as the Vasttrafik website is not very clear...Do 14 year olds travel free on all public transport, or is it only if I buy a one-day or three day card?...Is there a two day card?
3) I can't find a downloadbale tram map..any links?
4) Is it best to travel to the Uwelli Stadium by tram...or is that a bad idea for big crowd events...can you walk there from the centralstation
Thanks for any help!
Cheap transport from Landvetter Airport!
Is there a public bus service, or any other cheap way of getting to and from the airport to central gothenburg....instead of using the expensive Flygbussarna...which would work out at £24 return for me and my son!
Best things to do in three days?
We are from New Zealand but living in the UK and this will be our first time going to Goteborg. We want to know if there are and reccommendations of where to go, best local food to try, best pub to get a beer at?
I love visiting local markets on the weekends when we are away so if anyone can tell me if there is that sort of thing there.
Is there a cheap way to travel around the city?
If anyone can help us out with any of this it is greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks so much guys : )

From Gothenburg to Stockholm in October
After looking at different options I'm feeling increasingly confused :( It seems that travelling by plane is cheaper than taking a train. Is this possible?
I would prefer a train so maybe I'm looking at a wrong site?
Or maybe a car is the best alternative as there will be 3 of us?
Day and time of travel: 6 October, afternoon prefered.

I will be staying in Backebolsvagen, Hisings Backa area. I need to know how to reach this area from Airport and how to travel regularly from here to Goteborg convention Centre. What is the best and economical way of travlling. Is there a 5 day pass I can use on most of public transport?
Thank you,
day trip to Marstrand July 2010
arriving on cruiseship early morning in Goteborg. would like to arrange a day tour, possibly for small group for 8-12 fellow passengers, to Marstrand. can anyone recommend a local agent who can do this? pick-up at port around 8-9am, return to ship by 4pm, to include a boat or ferry ride around archipelago, some time to spend on land to see some of Marstrand and Goteborg. Please include price per person.
OR may be just 2-4 of us to go via taxi to get to Marstrand, spend some time there with stop in Goteborg on return, then back to ship. do most of touring and walking around on our own. How much would taxi fare be round-trip, Goteborg-Marstrand?

One persistent suggestion is a bid for MEPC, the nation's third largest property group which looks vulnerable.
Earlier this year MEPC had merger talks with smaller rival Hammerson; then it dallied with Greycoat before nearly getting together with Burford. In between, it is thought to have had more than a passing acquaintance with BritLand.
MEPC is currently indulging in a defensive restructuring. It is retreating from foreign parts, intending to hand to shareholders pounds 300m of the proceeds from its overseas sales.
Institutions are unhappy with MEPC's performance and some have been agitating for a deal.
But it seems a reluctance to force MEPC into a merger it did not want killed off the proposed Hammerson deal; the Burford alliance was seen as a way of strengthening MEPC's management; it stumbled when agreement on management roles in the enlarged group could not be reached.
All the manoeuvring has proclaimed the message that MEPC is in play. Some suspect Mr Ritblat has now decided to act.
BritLand was at one time 34.5p higher at a 699.5p peak; the shares closed at 694p, a 29p gain. MEPC jumped 17p to 451p; its pounds 247m bid for the rather unglamorous PSIT property group has been accepted by shareholders representing 96.17 per cent.
Footsie had another high octane session, ending 34.7 points higher at 5,330.8, another peak. At one time it appeared to have run out of steam but when New York opened with a rush, inspired by subdued employment figures, the bulls regained the ascendancy.
Supporting shares joined in. The FTSE 250 MidCap index jumped 22.6 to a 4,883.9 peak and the FTSE SmallCap index added 11.1 to 2,360.8.
Redland, the building materials group which looked like being demolished by worse than expected interim figures, continued to recover. It is claimed chairman Rupert Agnew regards the group as vulnerable to a predatory strike. A review is under way which could lead to job losses. The shares rallied 21.5p to 254p; they slumped to 220p when the half-time results appeared.
BT remained in demand, up 10p to 469.5p in another round of heavy trading. Barclays' planned BZW deal left the shares 49.5p down at 1,697.5p.
British Biotech had the dubious distinction of becoming another drug group to disappoint, falling 15.5p to 134p after abandoning an arthritis treatment. Glaxo Wellcome put on 26.5p to 1,397.5p and Shield Diagnostic, still basking in the Sutherlands investment meeting, rose a further 22.5p to 752.5p.
BTR eased 3p to 243p with UBS saying sell. It believes the price should be 220p. GKN, weighed down by worries it may be tempted to mount a counter bid for T&N, improved 46.5p to 1,399.5p with HSBC maintaining the shares should be 1,540p.
Takeover favourite Britton, a packaging group, rose 3p to 78.5p after signalling a share buy-back.
Verity jumped 15p to a 72.75p record in busy trading. It has clinched seven more licensing deals, making 11 this year, for its NXT wafer thin loudspeaker technology.

After a four-year battle to persuade his club to lift the handicap limit in competitions, a 75-year-old hacker has decided to give up golf out of sheer frustration.
I often threaten to do the same but my frustration is with my game not my club, who have done very well in complying with the handicap directive issued by Congu.
Most hackers have similarly benefited in the last two years from receiving their full entitlement of shots in all tournaments. But not Keith Boar, who plays off 22 at a Lancashire club who are sticking stubbornly to the old 18 handicap limit in stroke-play competitions.
He has taken his complaint to the highest authorities but while he has found sympathy at the Lancashire Golf Union, the English Golf Union, Congu and the Royal & Ancient, there is little they can do.
There was a general spasm of horror among low-handicappers when Congu announced after thorough research that the handicap allowances to the less gifted players was so unfair as to need immediate reform.
Congu are the body, made up of our national golf unions, responsible for running the very efficient handicap system without which the game wouldn't function.
And it took courage to confront clubs with evidence that the system they had been using for generations was faulty and extremely unfair.
Better players needed to give opponents only three-quarters of the difference between their handicaps. Not only did no one know what that rule was based on, we were the only nation in the world in which it was applied.
When Congu examined club competition statistics from both sides of the Atlantic they could find no justification for it.
Indeed, to be absolutely fair to the higher handicapper, the stroke allowance ought to be one-and-a-quarter times the difference. Congu didn't go that far and settled for the full difference.
Good players were threatening not to enter tournaments because they were convinced that, armed with extra shots, the hackers would swoop down from the hills and massacre them.
It hasn't happened. As in the FA Cup, some minnows will have their day but the odds are still very much in favour of the better players.
Whereas Congu can dictate in matters concerning the handicap system in match play, they are not empowered to dictate on handicap limits in strokeplay competitions, though they may use stronger persuasive words in the next rules handbook in 2011.
"We don't like it," says Congu secretary Melvyn Goddard, "and it is not in the spirit of the game. There is overwhelming evidence that limits are unfair and the majority of clubs can see that. But some are reluctant to change, particularly in competitions that could have been going for a century."
Keith argues: "The rules could be amended, of course, to force them to change but I have to admit I'm not going to win this Boar war."
It might strengthen his case if other high-handicappers had a similar experience at their clubs. It would be interesting to hear from them.
Hackers, especially old ones, are regarded as a necessary evil – evil because they get in the way; necessary because they make an important financial contribution. If thousands of Keith Boars packed it in, the future of club golf wouldn't look too healthy.
Tip of the week
No 61: Picture the shot
The most difficult shot in golf is the straight shot. It doesn't matter what your preferred ball-flight is, the most important thing is to visualise the shot before you play it. It is much easier to make the body do what you want it to when you can see the shot you want to play.
For example, if you are looking to play a draw shot from right to left (for right-handed golfers) you need to imagine how far right the ball will start of the target and visualise it finishing on the target with a certain amount of draw spin. Without this visualisation it is difficult to pull off the shot, however good your technique is.
Even if your natural shot is a big fade, try to picture the shot before you play it and you'll pull it off more frequently.

Angel Di Maria is set to choose between Manchester United and Paris St Germain, with a decision expected in the next few days according to reports.
Real Madrid have indicated to possible suitors that the winger is on the market but now the Argentina international must select his destination.
According to Spanish radio station Cope, Di Maria is weighing up a move to Old Trafford or the French capital. It's also claimed that representatives for the 26-year-old have indicated a decision could be made over the weekend.
Di Maria is a part of the exodus currently taking place at the Bernabeu following the arrivals of Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez.
Video: The latest transfer news
Manchester United are understood to be interested in a possible £40m deal for the player however new manager Louis van Gaal is keen to assess his current squad before making any move. Interest from French champions PSG may encourage him to speed up any decision.
Manchester United: Potential summer transfer targets
Manchester United: Potential summer transfer targets
1/19 Arturo Vidal
The Juventus midfielder is among United's top targets this summer, particularly after impressing for Chile at the World Cup. Having helped his current team secure the Serie A title, Juventus aren't keen on letting him go.
Getty Images
2/19 Marco Reus
Rumoured to be near the top of United's target list, a possible swap deal involving cash and Shinji Kagawa has been mentioned. The Borussia Dortmund player would not be a cheap acquisition, especially given his recent declaration that he wants to stay at Dortmund next season
Getty Images
3/19 Arda Turan
Former manager David Moyes had been seen watching Turan, though his dismissal put a doubt over whether United were still interested. The winger's agent claims an offer has been made, so is the Atletico Madrid winger on his way to Old Trafford?
Getty Images
4/19 Arjen Robben
The Bayern Munich winger has said Van Gaal has offered him a place at Old Trafford if he wants it. Currently he's happy to stay where he is, but things can quickly change.
5/19 Claudio Marchisio
With Paul Pogba highly unlikely to be prised away from Juventus, United's attention could turn to team-mate Claudio Marchisio. The Italian international would provide some class and experience.
6/19 Mats Hummels
With defensive reinforcements high on United's list of priorities, Borussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels has unsurprisingly been linked with a move to Old Trafford. The German has been earmarked as the ideal replacement for the now-departed Rio Ferdinand and after his impressive showing at the World Cup, he's even more desirable.
7/19 Raphael Varane
Raphael Varane has already snubbed United once in his career, opting instead to join Real Madrid. It would surely take a big offer to prise the classy defender away now.
8/19 Seamus Coleman
Reportedly already the subject of a £15m bid, Seamus Coleman could be the man being lined up as the answer to United's problems at right-back.
9/19 William Carvalho
The Sporting Lisbon midfielder has reportedly been watched 15 times by Manchester United, although the £29m asking price could prove a stumbling block. The Portugal international has also been linked with Arsenal.
Getty Images
10/19 Xherdan Shaqiri
Bayern Munich winger Xherdan Shaqiri has struggled to force his way into the first team at the Allianz Arena and could be a target for United as well as rivals Liverpool. His impressive displays for Switzerland this summer could make it harder to prise him away.
11/19 Alex Song
Barcelona are understood to be ready to let the former Arsenal player leave this summer. Could provide some strength to United's midfield. Could also bring embarrassment judging by his behaviour at the World Cup.
12/19 Fabio Coentrao
Supposedly came within hours of signing in January, the Portuguese left back could be brought in to provide back-up to Luke Shaw.
13/19 Julian Draxler
A long time Arsenal target, United are reportedly interested in pinching the young German with a bumper offer. Seems unlikely though. Arsenal also strongly interested.
14/19 Sami Khedira
The Germany international is reportedly being pursued by a host of sides, and United might be wise to get in the mix as they look to add some quality to a fairly feeble looking midfield. Real Madrid appear open to letting him go with the 27-year-old having just one year left on his contract. Arsenal and Chelsea are among the others keen on signing the World Cup winner.
15/19 Edinson Cavani
The Uruguayan hitman would prove pricey and tricky to snatch away from PSG and it seems unlikely United have enough to offer him.
16/19 Luciano Vietto
The Racing Club youngster has been impressing in Argentina for some time although a move directly to United would be something of a surprise.
17/19 Santiago Arias
Should a move for Seamus Coleman fail, PSV defender Arias is reportedly being lined up by United. Played for Colombia throughout the group stage of the World Cup.
18/19 Miralem Pjanic
Rumoured to part of a joint bid including teammate Benatia, the Bosnian midfielder is reportedly another on United's large hit list.
19/19 Kevin Strootman
Van Gaal knows Strootman well from working with him in the Netherlands set-up and has indicated he is interested. Roma are reluctant to sell whilst his recovery from a knee injury may prove a stumbling block.
The winger whose rebounded shot led to the match-winning goal in May's Champions League final appears an ideal fit at United where there has been a dearth of top-quality wingers for some time. The player who helped Argentina reach the World Cup final in Brazil would surely represent a better wide option to Van Gaal than Ashley Young or Nani.
Manchester United must hope that their inability to offer Champions League football next season doesn't count against them.

Proximity and dialogue
Urban space

Large projects
Urban space
Act for
a safer city
The most fragile users are the subject of particular attention, to preserve their entitlement to safe and reliable mobility. Aximum has a range of solutions to
- Promote accessibility
- Secure crossroads
- Protect pedestrians
- Control intersections and level crossings
The harmonious cohabitation of different road users is made possible by various systems, notably products for marking, signalling and road signage, which can:
- Mark contact zones and 30 km/h limit zones
- Mark out routes
- Reduce speed
- Control access
A welcoming and reassuring town centre is a factor in social cohesion. Taking care of the inhabitants of towns also involves seeking functionality and aesthetics in your facilities:
- Public lighting
- Pedestrian zones
- Small posts, barriers and guardrails
Particular nuisances can occur following incidents, acts of delinquency or notably during periods of construction work. Aximum can help you to reduce them through its solutions for:
- Information and communication systems
- Video surveillance
- Patrolling
- Security arrangements near work sites
sustainable mobility
Easing congestion in towns contributes both to favouring calm traffic and reducing atmospheric pollution. Our know-how in traffic management enables us to respond to requests:
- Traffic studies
- Management of traffic and crossroads with traffic lights
- Installation of control rooms for supervising and regulating traffic
The development of reserved lanes can optimise the travel for each type of user, in accordance with the restrictions related to each mode of transport. Aximum supports you in providing its solutions to these issues:
- Management of public transport priorities
- Signage
- Developments to mark out spaces
In large towns, about 20% of drivers are driving around looking for a place to park. Facilitating this search has as many beneficial effects for the municipality as for the motorist. This is why Aximum has developed solutions to provide information and guidance to parking places.
Supply and installation of recharging terminals
Be your leading partner
Aximum has developed a solution for managing assets, operation and geo-location, which constantly provides local authorities with a clear view of the state of their equipment and thus ensures that their operations are monitored effectively.

Through our experience and know-how, we can meet your requirements for performance and, in particular, provide overall contracts, thus contributing to your cost control.
Operation while a work site is ongoing
Facilitate traffic in the work site phase
Our teams know and have mastered the very specific conditions for installing horizontal and vertical signage and traffic guidance equipment, with traffic still running or in the context of closures which demand preparation, rigour and anticipation. The inventor of illuminated lane-neutralisation arrows, and with fully-equipped vehicles and experienced personnel who are well-versed in the safety regulations, Aximum continues to develop solutions to make its operations during this critical phase even more reliable.
We can offer you solutions that enable users to have information on their journey times when they enter the work zone. Temporary traffic-management equipment, notably in urban environments, contributes to minimising the impact of the work site on traffic flow.
Act for safer work zones
Aximum has a range of modular lane separators appropriate to your installation and traffic conditions. Specific solutions are available to you, depending whether you have to protect a work zone in any of the following environments:
- Urban
- Peri-urban
- Road
- Motorway
Our range of shock absorbers, equipment and connections contributes to efficiently handling zones of approach, activity and end of work.
Aximum has developed mobile speed alert solutions, which can be installed on work zones and easily moved according to the configuration of work and danger zones.
Taking into account possible nuisances (visual, noise and congestion) generated by a work site can reduce the impact and improve acceptability for local residents and users. To do this, Aximum provides you with fixed and dynamic information and signage systems, as well as additional equipment such as siding or lighting.
Be your leading partner
Our know-how in transportation engineering is very useful in enabling us to suggest the most appropriate layouts and equipment. We can therefore assess the nature and density of traffic conditions and anticipate the consequences of the work site on traffic.
We also take into consideration the duration of work and whether or not the work site is mobile.
The work zones are by definition adaptable and changeable. Ensuring the best implementation conditions for companies in charge of building structures contributes to good implementation and respect for schedules. Our teams are responsive and capable of intervening for planned and unplanned work in the context of out-of-hours duty
The only business application dedicated to systems for signalling, retention and road marking, Patrimonia contributes to simplifying the technical and administrative monitoring of temporary or permanent equipment.

Last week, I attended an event at Bryan Cave's San Francisco Office as part of its Women's Initiative Power Project leadership training series. (I was the guest of a friend of mine who is one of the organizers at the firm.) I have gone to "Women's Initiative" events hosted by other law firms, law schools, or bar associations and this presentation was one of the better I attended.
Two speakers were brought in to discuss "Your Personal Brand—Establish Yourself and Your Career as a Brand." The speakers were not attorneys; instead they were corporate leadership coaches from Suite Track in Atlanta, Georgia. There were a few things I really liked about this event.
Let's be honest, we all need to work on our personal brand and sometimes lawyers are not the best at teaching other lawyers about this stuff! Bringing in outside professionals made the dialogue at this event a bit different from the dialogue at other similar events.
The committee had gone out of its way to have Bryan Cave attorneys invite other businesswomen (attorneys or not) to the event. This changed the dynamic of the event since the attendees were not all firm lawyers or even lawyers at all. It turned the event into a networking occasion for attorneys and businesswomen alike. Great idea.
Often these lectures can feel a bit like someone telling you to just "figure out your brand—it is important." Instead, the presenters actually came with exercises to facilitate the discussion and help each attendee work through issues around personal branding individually. These exercises were actual takeaways attendees could continue to work on outside the event.
The presenters talked about your physical image at work and how that relates to your brand. Many folks are tired of this conversation, but an interesting point was raised. The presenters focused on when you decide to change your physical image, not just what that image is. They talked about studies on how men especially (sorry guys) are distracted and confused when a woman suddenly changes her physical appearance. If you do this before a big presentation or an important client meeting, this can turn into a distraction and actually detract from the important work you are doing. It was an interesting point that I am not sure I have heard before.
However, from personal experience, I know this is true. When I was 22, I accidentally dyed my hair a horrid shade of orange. Needless to say, prior to that day my hair was not orange. I went into work the following day and my boss after quite a long meeting with me commented that he felt like something was different but he couldn't place it. He had literally been thinking about this during our meeting! Of course, to me it was obvious (yesterday my hair wasn't orange, today it was) and clearly it had been a distraction. Something definitely to file away and consider when you decide to get a new haircut or totally change up your wardrobe!
Oftentimes, these discussions focus more on what your brand should be instead of what brand is the right fit for you. Each of us is different, has different aspirations and career paths, and therefore will have a different personal brand. That doesn't mean one person's brand is better than another. It just means that you want to decide what your brand is and capitalize on it.
I appreciated the workshop and commend Bryan Cave for putting together what I found to be a thought-provoking and empowering program. I know there is a debate about whether or not Women's Initiatives work in law firms, but I think programming like this can definitely be effective.
Have you attended a Women's Initiative at your firm? Did you find it worthwhile and informative?

By Mary Beth Marklein, USA TODAY
The number of U.S. college students studying abroad – and the number of international students in the USA – are at all-time highs, show data released today.
But those increases do not reflect the impact of the recent economic downturn. They're based on the latest data available, which date back two years. And while the report suggests that numbers of U.S. students abroad will grow more despite the recession, the outlook is mixed on whether international growth will continue, says the two-part report, Open Doors 2009, published by the non-profit Institute for International Education, which tracks international enrollments for the State Department.
Among findings:
•A record 262,416 U.S. students studied abroad in 2007-08, the latest data year available. That's up 8.5% over the previous year, and "it is likely that trends toward less expensive destinations and shorter stays will continue, reflecting the effects of the economy," the report says.
It also notes that student interest in study abroad has historically remained strong in bad economies, and that financial aid will remain available. The State Department, for example, expects to provide study abroad scholarships to more than 1,700 low-income students this academic year, more than double the 820 it awarded two years ago.
•A record 671,616 foreign students enrolled in U.S. colleges and universities in the 2008-09 academic year, the latest year data available. That's up 8% from the previous year, the largest percentage increase since 1980-81.
But a more recent survey of 700 U.S. institutions found a range of trends this fall. Half reported increases, 24% declines and 26% no significant changes in the number of foreign students on campus. They cited the economy and swine flu concerns.
The impact also varies by country, with surging numbers of students coming from China and other countries, says IIE president Allan Goodman.

The Horse Forum (http://www.horseforum.com/forumindex.php)
- Horse Training (/horse-training/)
- - My pony is having issues (http://www.horseforum.com/horse-training/my-pony-having-issues-143581/)
My pony is having issues
My pony's name is Magic. He is an arab/welsh. He's fat too. Whenever I canter, he bobs his head up and down. It's annoying because I don't place well in shows. He isn't lame. Also he decides to stop cantering because he thinks it's ok and he does not respect me and my trainer tells me to beat him with the crop if he does that. If I do that, he tries to buck me off, and he senses that I'm scared.
It sounds like your pony is on the forehand - he is carrying more weight on his front legs than his back legs. This will make his head and neck bob up and down in canter, while he tries to balance himself.
He needs to learn how to balance on his back legs more than his front legs - which can be done by riding LOTS of transitions between the gaits, and lots of changes of rein, and some leg yielding if you have started it.
As for his stopping, he sounds like a typical naughty pony that knows you will let him get away with stopping when he feels like it. I agree with your trainer, to give him a few good whacks on the backside and make life very hard for him when he stops.
It might help for your trainer to put you on the lunge, and when he stops he/she can go after him with a lunge whip if he doesn't respond to you. If you're scared, see if you can get a monkey strap put on the front of your saddle, or put a stirrup leather around the base of his neck. Then when you canter, hold onto the strap, sit right back in the saddle and MAKE him canter fast - think about making him gallop. Your pony just needs to learn that he HAS to go forward when you tell him to.
Good luck :)
Thanks I will try that(: I have one question though, what do you mean by lots of changes of reign?
I think Kayty means change the direction your going in.
Oh ok(: Thanks guys

"The increasing criminalization of corporate behavior in America…"
"…is bad for the rule of law and for capitalism," opines The Economist, saying regulation-through prosecution has become "an extortion racket," from hundreds of millions in Google drug-ad settlement money spread among Rhode Island police departments, to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's muscling in to extract money from BNP Paribas in a settlement of legal offenses against U.S. foreign policy as distinct from New York consumers:
Who runs the world's most lucrative shakedown operation? The Sicilian mafia? The People's Liberation Army in China? The kleptocracy in the Kremlin? If you are a big business, all these are less grasping than America's regulatory system. The formula is simple: find a large company that may (or may not) have done something wrong; threaten its managers with commercial ruin, preferably with criminal charges; force them to use their shareholders' money to pay an enormous fine to drop the charges in a secret settlement (so nobody can check the details). Then repeat with another large company. …
Perhaps the most destructive part of it all is the secrecy and opacity. The public never finds out the full facts of the case, nor discovers which specific people—with souls and bodies—were to blame. Since the cases never go to court, precedent is not established, so it is unclear what exactly is illegal. That enables future shakedowns, but hurts the rule of law and imposes enormous costs.

Holy shit is right! Glad to see I'm not the only one who goes a bit crazy with mapping :P. What format is this for by the way? Once I hit 110K sidedefs with one of my maps, my nodebuilder couldn't compress them anymore and I hit the limit. I'm wondering because it looks like you'd be right at the limit unless your making the map for UDMF or something.

But I for one will play it regardless. Awesomesauce.
