Growth vs. Slimming diet
The global pharmacy market in 2014 saw a vast number of mergers and acquisitions. Many big deals were closed, especially with global players. Among these mergers and acquisitions one could witness strong focus on therapy technologies in different fields. There was also strong organic growth: with 40 new admissions in 2014, the FDA set a new record. Dr. Thilo Kaltenbach, leader of the Arthur D. Little Healthcare Practice, explains how medium-sized and small companies in particular were keen to develop innovative new therapies and technologies. For smaller companies that own rights, it was a tough decision whether to sell their rights to bigger players or bring the products to the market themselves. Arthur D. Little experts found that the choice of the right fit-for-purpose commercial and operational model determines the success of those actions.

Strategies for Success in the Wind Industry
Despite strong industry growth, the past few years have been challenging ones for the wind industry. A combination of slowdowns in some of the major markets, production overcapacity, reduced subsidies and the financial crisis caused margins to be depressed and a number of businesses to run into difficulty. However, the last couple of years have seen a turnaround by some of the major players, as new technologies have expanded the range of market opportunities and new business approaches have strengthened financial performance. In this article, a guest feature written by Robin Francis at Arthur D. Little, Robin reviews the current state of the industry, examines the strategies major players have used to strengthen their positions, and draws some lessons regarding key factors for success.

Delivering the Promises, with Lower Oil Prices
One might believe that there is nothing new to be learnt in terms of managing assets, and the associated supply chain in oil and gas, that operational efficiency must be as good as it can be, and that the industry is well capable of being highly competitive. And yet, as oil prices plunge, the industry yet again has to deal with unprecedented change. In this article, a guest feature written by Russell Pell at Arthur D. Little, Russell discusses why the entire industry is under pressure and the importance of producers being efficient to stay in business.

Lignite power is the most important domestic source of energy
The German energy transition is heating up the debate regarding how best to ensure an affordable and sustainable energy supply. Arthur D. Little recently published a new study which proves that lignite power is currently the most important domestic source of energy in Germany. The report says that 42% of Germanys domestic energy was produced with lignite whereas renewable energies only produced 37%. Germany currently covers 70% of its energy requirements with imports of oil and gas. Lignite currently produces 12% of the German overall consumption. The report revealed that 54% of the German population are against a shutdown of lignite-fired power stations and an Insa Consulere study found that people see lignite energy as a chance for more independence from Russian oil and gas supply. The Arthur D. Little study confirms the increasing importance of lignite for the German market.

European telecommunication market faces a wave of mergers
The European telecommunication sector is suffering hardship. Companies are observing decreasing revenues due to governmental restrictions and cheap online competitors such as Skype and WhatsApp. Furthermore, global online traffic makes big investments into mobile networks necessary. Arthur D. Little experts point out that this environment is fertile soil for more big mergers and acquisitions in the sector. Europe has seen several recent spectacular takeovers, such as the E-Plus/Telefonica deal in Germany. Companies are trying to realize synergies to improve their competitive positions and reduce costs. Arthur D. little analysed recent mergers in detail and found that mergers were expected to be more efficient than usual in market. However, the experts point out that a final evaluation of takeovers cannot be carried out before three years because integration of all distributions within a company is a difficult and long-lasting process.

Experts consider 80 US dollars per barrel a realistic oil price
Since mid-2014, the price for oil has dropped. The question is whether prices will pick up again, as the markets have recently suggested. Arthur D. little experts predict an oil price of around 80 US dollars a barrel as the new normal. The high oil price in the last year prompted strong investments in the oil business. New oil platforms were opened around the globe. This caused an economic surplus. Today many producers are no longer able to produce profitably with the new prices, which has reduced the supply again. Arthur D. Little experts believe that in the medium term the US will be the new global swing producer for oil. New fracking technology gives the country a chance to become independent from other suppliers. This development will weaken the position of the powerful OPEC states, which is dominating the global oil business today.

Will Apple bury the SIM?
US technology giant Apple shocked the mobile networking sector recently by announcing that it would develop a SIM offering customers the cheapest available prices of all providers in the market. Currently SIM cards are only unlocked for one provider. The new Apple technology would change the sector significantly. For mobile networking operators the new technology would be a big threat that would destroy their current market model. At the moment the new Apple SIM is just an idea and still far from market introduction. But Christian Niegel from Arthur D. Little considers the new model a realistic ambition. The Apple SIM would open new doors in the field of Big Data. Apple is very interested in collecting increasing amounts of customer data. The new SIM would be an interesting data collection method, and the security issue is one of the big hurdles for Apple to cross.

Mobile payment: Technology companies versus banks and telcos
The banking sector has been in crisis for years. More and more young people are turning away from the established stationary banking model. Instead, they prefer new financial services mainly from the digital sector. This field is currently dominated by several start-up companies, as well as US technology giants Apple and Google. Apple Pay and Google Wallet have already started to conquer the field of mobile payment and digital banking. This development is a massive threat for traditional banking. Arthur D. Littles Viewpoint explains how banks will have to look for new partners and alliances to fight back against the new competitors. They predict a convergence of banking and telecommunication. Telco companies seem to be suitable partners with which banks could enter the digital field. These companies have many customers and a deeper market penetration. Experts advise telecommunication companies to create new digital banking products. They also have a second big advantage for banks a better reputation, as the financial crisis of 2008 is still affecting the global image of banking. New partners may help to start a successful comeback.

88% companies are unsatisfied with their efforts when it comes to breakthrough innovation
Innovation today is a key driver of organic growth for all companiesregardless of sector or geography. And it is increasingly important for companies to be able to deliver a pipeline of breakthrough (or radical) innovations in order to respond to emerging competition and increasing customer power. In this article, the journalist discusses the key findings of Arthur D Littles report, 'Systematising Breakthrough Innovation.'
Germany | finanztreff.de | 24. Februar 2015
Breakthrough innovations: Nine out of 10 companies are dissatisfied with their innovation management
A new Arthur D. Little study proves that nine out of 10 companies feel insecure about the handling of breakthrough innovations. Top managers that were interviewed for the study admitted that they were not confident about having successful strategies to establish innovations within their companies. However, they were aware that those disruptive innovations would have a big impact on the companys success in the future. As a result of the study, Arthur D. Little came up with advice for companies to improve their innovation management. Successful innovation has its origin in the culture of a company. Still, innovation depends a lot on funds and professional teamwork.

Best Local Haitian Band (2001)
Founded by Richard Laguerre, formerly of the popular roots band Boukan Ginen, the Haitian rasin group Adjah conjures the talents of dyaspora musicians living in Miami, including Georgina Padilla, Jean Francois Damas, Carline Ruiz, Jocelyn E. Gourdet, Billy Philomi, and Jimmy Daniel. To live up to its name -- which means spirit possession in Kreyol -- Adjah fuses rock and roll with a wide range of vodou rhythms. While most rasin music is founded on rara rhythms, Adjah incorporates congo, petwo, mahi, and yanvalou, making it all the more likely the gods will take over and set the crowd dancing.

The Central Valley Association of Realtors named Shelly Bell of Bell Real Estate the Realtor of the Year.
Power outages remain the most common complaint call that the Turlock Irrigation District receives in a year. Most outages are due to external forces, such as weather or downed lines due to car accidents. Despite the cause, TID customers just want to know one thing: when will I get my power back?
A follow-up investigation by the Turlock Fire Department into a fire at a Turlock apartment has concluded the fire was accidental in nature.

A little over 2,600 cows inhabit John Fiscalini's Modesto dairy providing a source of milk - and electricity. Surprised? The cow's manure is collected and harvested into a source of electricity as a nutrient fertilizer to create carbon offsets.
Shortly before Christmas, a local family was forced to say good-bye to a beloved son, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend. Aaron Darrel Powers, 18, passed away Dec. 14, 2012, following a vehicle accident with extended family members.
The Turlock Fire Department held their employee recognition ceremony recently and selected two veteran firemen to honor with their annual awards.
When it comes to deterring tobacco use the majority of Stanislaus County cities are failing to make the grade, according to a new report from the American Lung Association.
Burning logs left unattended in a fireplace rolled out and ignited a fire in an upstairs Turlock apartment Monday morning.
It's official. The 2013 Girl Scout cookie selling season is almost open. Get ready to be tempted by the likes of coconutty Samoas, peanut-butter-chocolate Tagalongs and the ever-popular Thin Mint. Turlock residents will soon be able to get their hands on the famed Girl Scout cookies starting Feb. 22 through March 17.
This year's flu season is hitting the population harder than expected and is taking a particularly harsh toll on the elderly, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
It started with a kiss - but has become much more than that.
The unemployment rate in Stanislaus County continued to make a slow, steady progress toward pre-recession rates, with the December unemployment rate hitting its lowest level in years.
He's Sports Illustrated's newest cover boy, the inspiration for a brand new clothing line, and he's sold the third most NFL jerseys in the month of January behind only Ray Lewis and Peyton Manning. He's trending worldwide with his trademark bicep kiss and one of his autographed football cards recently sold online for $6,000. It's safe to say he's taken the nation by storm.

For anyone unaware the federal government charges a penalty for not carrying health insurance, Emanuel Medical Center is offering a helping hand.
Bad news just keeps on coming for local growers, as the Turlock Irrigation District Board of Directors considers implementing an even lower than the historically-low 20 inch water allotment in 2014, once the postponed irrigation season finally starts.
Deep fried food, thrilling amusement rides, and live music - all of these things come to mind when thinking of the Stanislaus County Fair. However for most people, the main event they look forward to year after year is livestock exhibitions.
The unemployment rate in Stanislaus County made a small rebound from the rise seen in January with a slight decline in February, according to the latest numbers from the Employment Development Department.
While going to the dentist is a matter of routine for many Americans, in Jamaica it's a luxury.
Table 26 will be opening its doors on Sunday and to say the new restaurant has transformed the former Sweet River Bar and Grill location would be an understatement.

Pottery Barn Seabury Sofa & PB Comfort Grand Sofa
atadtallSeptember 29, 2009
Hi All!
I live in southern california, about 30 mins from LA and Orange County and fell in love with the Seabury and PB Comfort Grand Sofas from Pottery Barn. But they are pricey! Does anyone know who manufactures the sofas for Pottery Barn? Or something similar? I would like to buy 2 of each sofa, but that would be out of my budget.
I am happy to purchase locally or from NC or wherever they come from if I can get the same or similar sofas for less.
Any insight, help, or suggestions are MORE than welcome. THANKS!!! :0)

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Two kids, four wheels, 4,500 kilometres
Family drives across Canada, lives to tell tale
It didn't seem like a good idea, but we did it anyway. Two kids, two car seats, two mildly frazzled parents with too much stuff crammed into one -beat-up station wagon, driving from Ottawa to Nanaimo for a summer on the coast.
Oh, you're so lucky! enthused the friends. It will be so beautiful -- a family adventure to remember!
The in-laws live on Vancouver Island, and we'd always planned that, at some stage, we would drive out for a vacation instead of flying. Show the kids the country and all that. But I had imagined it would be a trip much like the one my own parents took me on when, as a young teenager, I spent what seemed like centuries in the back seat of the car, plugged into my Walkman, watching the grain elevators go by.
I didn't imagine the trip with toddlers.
To be fair, my daughter is almost four years old. But my son is just scraping 18 months, and he really is too young for such a long journey. Nevertheless, the combined forces of job loss and an impending move to the U.K. made it clear to us that a prolonged visit with the grandparents was in order.
There are times like this when travel is a necessity rather than a delight, so we needed to learn how best to do it as a young family together. We had plenty of time to make the trip and that made driving seem doable. So we did it.
We went slowly: Twelve days -- Ottawa to Nanaimo. That gave us plenty of time to stop for bathroom breaks and also for longer stretches to shake off some of the road and remind ourselves we were on an adventure. We aimed to drive no more than six hours in any day, and we made a point of breaking each day into manageable chunks.
In Ontario, you do that by looking for statues: Big Joe Mufferaw in Mattawa, Sudbury's Big Nickel, Wawa's Canada Goose and, in Kenora, it's Husky the Muskie. I hear there's a giant curling stone in Thunder Bay, though for the most part, we aimed for animals. And, yes, these statues are most definitely built for tourists, but that's no reason to avoid them. Kids like to know what's coming up next; Winnie the Pooh is a much better answer than White River.
Ontario takes a long time to drive through, so we decided to take a weekend driving break in Winnipeg, where an old roommate of mine lives. The kids were ready for a change -- and so were the adults.
We started with The Forks. At the junction of the Assiniboine and Red rivers, it's billed as Winnipeg's urban oasis -- an assembly of restaurants and hotels, attractive waterfront walkways, an indoor market with food, artists and buskers, great park spaces and heritage attractions, including a history path highlighting 6,000 years of local history.
Perhaps more vital for my kids, there are also several ancient rail cars, one of which houses a candy store. We spent the morning exploring everything and getting hands sticky with cinnamon buns. My daughter fed Canada geese at the river's edge. My son loved the trains as only an 18-month-old boy might. The Forks got an A+.
But there is more to Winnipeg yet. Between long meals and naps, we walked through the streets and tried to get a sense of this Prairie city. Winnipeg feels like Canada -- the grand old train station downtown, the dried vomit on the sidewalks outside the trendy new lofts in the heritage buildings, the granola stores and funky artist enclaves, the leafy and pretentious pockets and the spreading suburbs, too.
Winnipeg is small in the midst of a large landscape, just like the rest of us. It made for a good stop on our long road trip.
Driving out of Winnipeg and across the Prairies, you become aware of how big the sky gets in between the clouds. Cars begin to go faster in this landscape. Ontario felt eternal, but after Winnipeg, you can do a province a day without needing a third Timmies break, even with toddlers.
Our next long stop was in Calgary. It inevitably felt slicker than Winnipeg. It's bigger, brasher and taller. And, in some ways, it is a harder stop with kids. There were a couple of restaurants that turned us away because of the minors in tow. But the zoo made the stop worthwhile.
The Calgary Zoo is on St. George's Island on the Bow River. There is something very magical about crossing a bridge to spend an afternoon with tigers and gorillas. The weather was lousy the day we went to the zoo. Cold, rain and early-spring snow. But the zoo sweetened the deal by offering a bad-weather discount and, as it turns out, there was a lot to do indoors. The indoor rainforest was ideal; it was deliciously muggy and warm. Gorillas munched on sweet potatoes and parrots flew through the trees above our heads.
We also visited indoor enclosures for the elephants, as well as giraffes, hippos, flamingos, Red River hogs from Congo, African crested porcupines, peacocks and peahens, coatis (relatives of raccoons) and wallabies. Outside again, the snow leopards looked appropriately at home, slinking through the whitened afternoon. My own back-seat wildlife loved it all.
Before we had kids, road trips had been about wide-open spaces and the empty rush of driving. We spent hours and days talking about everything two people could possibly talk about or sitting silently, side-by-side, watching as the country slipped past.
It's different with kids. You need more stamina, because they need more attention. But you get to see the country differently. You get to know the playgrounds in a dozen neighbourhoods, in towns you've never heard of, and you get to talk with the parents who live there because your kids have just become fast friends.
You see the country less as landscape outside a window and more as a string of livable spots, communities along the road. Travelling slowly as a family is doable, and, though difficult at times, it's worth doing.

-- Eat in the car. Lunch breaks are for running around the car and exploring. Pick up lunch or make sandwiches when you stop, but don't give the food to the kids until you are moving again. It gives them something to do in the back seat.
-- Make sure when you stop, you run around the car, too.
-- Bring two balls to kick around. One causes fights.
-- Sing along to the music you like and so will your kids.
-- Keep office supplies in the glove compartment for a particularly difficult morning. A pad of Post-it notes and a couple of crayons equals a gallery waiting to happen.
-- Make sure your kids like their new sippy cups before departing.
-- www.roadsideattractions.ca
-- Have a kids' sand bucket within easy reach of potentially carsick kids. It is much easier to handle than a floppy plastic bag and it washes up well. Candies help afterwards, too.
-- Spills and sneezes happen. Keep a roll of toilet paper within parental reach and out of the kids' grasp.
-- Keep most of the toys in the trunk, but give each child an individual bag with a daily and rotating ration of toys.
-- Grow patience. It helps.

tú hablas (notice the -as ending here)
él/ella/usted habla (theme vowel a)
nosotros/nosotras hablamos (note -amos)
vosotros/vosotras hablais (note ais)
ellos/ellas/ustedes hablan (note -an)
Now, look at the endings (-as, -amos, -o, -an, -a) and select the correct subject pronoun.
After you do that, post your choices and I'll be h appy to check it for you.

FORT WAYNE – The National Weather Service has declared a Winter Storm Warning for much of northern and eastern Indiana, with the heaviest snowfall predicted in a line from Lake Michigan to East Central Indiana.
Where the storm is expected to lead off with snow and ice, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) crews have already been treating roadways in preparation for the storm. Trucks also have begun pre-treating bridges, ramps and roadways with salt brine, an anti-icing solution.
Projected snow accumulation, according to The National Weather Service is 5 to 7 inches.
However, warmer weather will arrive Thursday into the weekend. This will allow for snow to melt possibly creating flood conditions and hazards.
COLUMBIA CITY — Cassie Gareiss, of Columbia City, is a 21 year old facing several changes in a short period of time. She is engaged to Colton Streeter and the couple is planning a wedding later this summer.
The couple will also be relocating to Indianapolis.

FORT WAYNE — Dontay Martin "created his own war zone" in the early morning of Sept. 9, firing dozens of bullets into the night, striking an emergency vehicle.
According to an area newspaper, Martin appeared not to care about what the judge was saying or the lengthy prison sentence he was facing, as was the case during his entire trial last month.

We propose to quantify the potential of L-band polarimetric and interferometric synthetic aperture radar (PolinSAR) and lidar to characterize the 3D structure of vegetation. In particular, this proposal addresses issues related to the application of the DESDynI (Deformation, Ecosystem Structure and Dynamics of Ice) mission to characterize 3D vegetation structure. This mission combines the ability of lidar to measure localized canopy height profiles (CHP) and of radar to provide wide area estimates of canopy height. The overall objective of this proposal is to study the most likely scenarios for DESDynI and quantify their performance and the remaining uncertainty in the retrieval of vegetation structure parameters (i.e. height, density, biomass, and canopy/biomass dynamics). Most importantly, we will find the best compromise between long (greater lidar spatial coverage and lower interferometric correlation) and short repeat cycle (lower lidar coverage but higher interferometric correlation). Our approach uses existing data from spaceborne (ICEsat/GLAS) and airborne lidar data (LVIS) in addition to spaceborne (ALOS/PALSAR) and airborne (UAVSAR) L-band polarimetric inSAR data. Our team already possesses the available ICEsat/GLAS waveforms, LVIS and ALOS/PALSAR data covering all 10 proposed test sites. Much of this data has been processed as part of previous NASA projects by the investigators and we are ready to perform the proposed tasks. UAVSAR is a new airborne L-band polarimetric repeat pass interferometer. To achieve the overall objective, we propose to collect new data with UAVSAR to study temporal interferometric decorrelation over a wide range of vegetation types at six time intervals: 1hour, 2-days, 5-days, 8-days, 12-days and 16-days. To sample a variety of important vegetation types, we will collect UAVSAR data over 6 of the 10 sites in California, New England and Central America. Using the ALOS/PALSAR and UAVSAR data, we also propose to assess and compare the accuracy of two SAR-based techniques to estimate 3D vegetation structure and in particular canopy height, density and biomass. The techniques are: 1) SAR interferometry (inSAR); 2) SAR polarimetric interferometry (PolinSAR). Finally, we propose to combine lidar data to the SAR techniques to improve characterization of 3D vegetation structure. For the InSAR technique, we will combine lidar and inSAR data to estimate ground topography in addition to vegetation height. On the other hand, the PolinSAR technique does not require knowledge of ground topography and exploits the full potential of a mission like DESDynI. Thus, PolinSAR is the most promising technique to characterize canopy structure and is based on the fact that ground and vegetation scattering mechanisms are different and so are polarimetric signatures. In order to retrieve heights, a simple polarimetric scattering model is fitted to the data which depends on several parameters, including canopy extinction and vegetation height. We will use lidar height estimates to constrain the polarimetric scattering model and derive canopy extinction. This analysis will also enable us to characterize the relationship between canopy closure and extinction in the canopy. This proposal directly responds to Sub-element 1 of this NRA (Vegetation 3-D Structure, Biomass and Disturbance), which states that of "particular interest are: (1) studies to develop and evaluate algorithms and analysis strategies that address the merger of lidar and radar measurements".
