"My experience with NCS is very pleasant with ample of opportunities for growth, except for the rewards component. "

I worked at NCS
NCS is a very established software integration house that is very strong in processes and project management. It has got enough capital and reserves to weather through many of the most difficult times such as SARS, H1N1, Asian and Global economic downturns.
NCS' reward system is not known to be the best in the industry, although it strives to be a competitive one. In my opinion, it has grown to be over dependent on market surveys rather than using the general sentiment on the ground. As a result, talent retention continues to be one of the major issues plaguing the organisation.
Advice to Management
NCS need to be more people oriented and treat staff at all level with respect and dignity. Simply using empirical data alone for administering rewards and recognition may no longer be sufficient and the method of choice. NCS needs to rationalise its long term goals.

not so stressed. work life balanced well.
staff benefits is ok
quite a number of training opportunities, can choose from many courses
well performed staff not rewarded good enough, payoff doesn't match their contribution to the company.
your age and years of experience is more important than your abilities.
Advice to Management
Give better compensation to staff, reward and retain the good ones

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The human cost of the Greek financial crisis
08 Jun 2010 17:42 GMT
The court must decide whether Kerviel is solely responsible for the losses in a case seen by many as a symbol of the banking excesses blamed for the financial crisis.
He risks a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a fine of $450,000 if convicted on charges of breach of trust, falsifying and using fake documents and entering false data into company computers.
'Banking orgy'
Dressed in a dark suit and purple tie, Kerviel replied "single, computer consultant" and declared a monthly salary of $2,750 when asked about his marital status and current occupation as the three-week trial opened on Tuesday.
Societe Generale revealed in January 2008 that it had been forced to unwind $60bn of unauthorised deals it says Kerviel made.
He denies being solely responsible and has said he will call on the judge to acquit him when he takes to the dock at the Palais de Justice criminal courts in central Paris after a two-year inquiry.
Kerviel has said he made mistakes but maintains his bosses knew what he was doing and that he was part of a "big banking orgy," as he described it in a memoir published last month.
He wrote that traders habitually hid the size of their bets and bosses turned a blind eye to possible breaches of trading limits as long as earnings were high.
Top earners received congratulations as "good hookers," Kerviel wrote.
He told the AFP news agency last month that the trial was a chance "to show the public that I was not an isolated case and there were abuses throughout the banking and trading world".Computer evidence
Kerviel said that among the 33 defence witnesses at his trial, some would shed light on the workings of the trading floor to prove that he had not acted without his bosses' knowledge.
"My aim is to show that at no point did Jerome Kerviel abuse the confidence of the bank," said Olivier Metzner, Kerviel's lawyer, ahead of the trial.
Metzner said he would present evidence recovered from trading computers to prove that Societe Generale was aware of Kerviel's actions.
Jean Veil, the bank's lawyer, has accused Kerviel of "duplicity" for reassuring his employers that all was well.
"These hearings are going to open in a particularly tense atmosphere," Metzner said.
Kerviel spent 38 days in custody after his arrest in 2008 and has since started a job at a small IT company in a suburb of Paris.

well, it is very allright to accept criticism...The constructive type, of course! But I also write, for over 20 years now, and I do not have even a tiny thing to criticise (I hope I got the word correctly- english is not my native language).
Oh, yes, I found one: the chapters are a little too short!

Conference changes are the new fad in sports
By Matt Nestor
Prep Sports Reporter
A new fad has taken off all across sports. It doesn't matter if it is professional, college or now high school. That fad is conference changes.
These changes are taking place all over the country, and for myriad reasons, depending on the level. In some cases, it is money, and in others, it is competitiveness.
Nowhere have these changes been more dramatic than at the college level. You have a Big 10 with 12 teams, the Pac 10 became the Pac 12, the SEC has expanded to 14 teams, there were teams from the West Coast joining the former Big East, which had to change its name because some of those schools took the name when they formed a new conference.
In most of the cases at the college level, all of these changes had to do with money. There were opportunities for smaller schools to also increase their competition level, and they would tell you that was the reason. But you can't ignore the money that was involved.
At the high school level, the changes are coming for much different reasons. Some of it is money, as in schools can't afford to travel long distances anymore for their every day or every week conference games.
But the main driving force behind these changes comes because of competition.
It is an interesting dynamic as well. You have schools on both sides of the spectrum looking to make changes because of the level of competition.
In some cases, schools are leaving highly competitive conferences where they feel they have no chance to compete, especially when it comes to the football playoffs. They are looking for a spot where they feel like they can at least have a chance most years.
In other cases, you have some schools who dominate their conferences so thoroughly that they are searching for better competition to prepare themselves for the playoffs, though that is the rare exception.
There is also a big disconnect between private and public schools. Private schools typically get better athletes, who can choose to attend that school, whereas public schools have to work with whoever is in the building.
You even have private schools abandoning other private schools because they cannot compete at their level.
All this is to say that at some point, these changes will affect this area and the NIC-10. They continue to say it will not, but it is only a matter of time before it will.
There is a big disconnect within the conference as it is while Rockford Boylan Catholic has not lost a football game in seven years and Rockton Hononegah and Machesney Park Harlem have lost fewer than a handful outside of games to each other in that same time frame.
This comes in a conference that features Belvidere, Belvidere North and Freeport, who are about half the size of Hononegah and Harlem, and the four Rockford schools who are caught somewhere in between.
There are rumors that the conference has reached out to schools big and small, trying to find a way to maybe split in to two divisions and balance out the scheduling more.
There are also rumors that other conferences have reached out to NIC-10 schools about leaving the conference, which would cause a whole new set of nightmare scenarios for area schools when it comes to scheduling.
Ultimately, something will happen here and the conference will change, whether someone leaves, schools are added or anything to that effect. It could be in the next year, it may take five years.
But know that the change will be coming. In today's sports environment, however, the change is inevitable.

1995 Toyota Camry Q&A
1995 Toyota Camry Question: Lights come on and off whether car is running or just parked
The tail lights (and most likely the headlights) are now turning on and off by themselves for a few seconds or minutes, even when the car is parked, with no key in the ignition. Is this the running lights sensor, a battery issue, or something else? - carmama
Answer 1
Can you turn the lights off by rotating the light switch stalk on the steering column? It sounds like the light switch is defective, does it feel "limp" as you operate it? The lights can be left in a position where they will come on with the engine running but should switch off when the keys are out of the ignition. - patrick mannion

Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs is a New York-based investment banking firm that engages in global investment banking, securities, investment management, and other financial services, primarily with institutional clients. Founded in 1869, the firm is recognised as one of the most prestigious institutions in the world, although its reputation has suffered after the financial sector drew fire since the global financial crisis.
Glowing transformation
Kristine Kwok
Most Popular
Vice-Premier Wang Qishan greeted his long-time acquaintance Henry Paulson with his trademark humour yesterday.
In his first meeting with the US Treasury secretary in his new capacity as a vice-premier, Mr Wang said he was a little worried by what he had seen on television the night before. 'I saw you in the news footage and I was a bit concerned because you looked a bit worn out on the TV,' he said, referring to a CCTV news clip featuring Mr Paulson's remarks on US financial regulatory reform. 'But you look glowing today, so I feel really happy and relieved.'
The pair have known each other since Mr Paulson was a senior banker with Goldman Sachs and Mr Wang worked for China Construction Bank.
Mr Paulson congratulated Mr Wang on his new appointment, saying: 'It's great for me to address you as vice-premier now. I am looking forward to working closely with you as we prepare for the next Strategic Economic Dialogue session.'
Mr Wang was appointed a vice-premier to oversee the nation's financial policies last month and is being seen as a replacement for Wu Yi as a troubleshooter on international trade affairs. Ms Wu stepped down as a vice-premier last month. Mr Wang will replace her in leading the Strategic Economic Dialogue between Beijing and Washington.

| Nyx'sReincarnation chapter 25 . 6/28/2012
Loved the story! You should update it though.
I noticed something. I forget what it's called... You rite words that are words but they aren't the right words even though they're similar. For example, you write latter when you mean later and you write ally when you mean alley.
It seems like things happened a bit too fast. The chapters flow propperlly, but it always seems like Bella's always there at the right time to catch the action. Because of that, the story seems like it's going too fast.
"another" is a word, so you don't have to write "an other".
"Driveway" is also a word, so you don't have to write "drive way".
I noticed a lot of spelling mistakes. You should do spell check, and you should also read over the chapter. It's posted for the world to see, so you should do the best work you can do.
Other than that, loved the story!
Keep up the great work, and PLEASE UPDATE! :) (:

Guest Access
As we rent out the entire premises, our esteemed guests have exclusive access to all of the facilities offered.
Interaction with Guests
While we do not stay at the premises; me and my colleagues are always around for instant communication. We welcome any questions about the neighbourhood or Hong Kong in general.
The Neighborhood
Prince Edward is located in Kowloon's Mong Kok neighbourhood, close to Apliu Street Market, Flower Market, and Yuen Po Bird Market. Nearby points of interest also include Fa Hui Park and Ladies' Market. The property is situated among the "Textiles Street" which is buzzing during the day, while quiet and relaxing during the evening. This is also the best neighbourhood in Hong Kong to find Cantonese Dai Pai Dong street cuisine.
Getting Around
Absolutely one of the most convenient transportation hubs within Hong Kong. Prince Edward MTR Station is located in Northern Mong Kok, Kowloon, surrounding the intersection of Nathan Road and Prince Edward Road West. Prince Edward Station and Mong Kok Station are the two closest stations in Hong Kong. They are only about 400 metres apart and the train takes less than one minute to travel from one station to the other.
Other Things to Note
As there are too many local tips to share, simply contact me with specific requests so that I may provide you with a customised response.

We have enjoy our New year trip in Hong Kong.
Dietrich's cozy apartment is very convenience , especially there has many good restaurant just walking distance. Near MTR prince edward station is easy to go anywhere in HK.
Host : Mr. Osmond are very responsible and response our request immediately.
Anyway , booking this apartment is recommendation.
Location wise not bad, good food are within walking distance. House is spacious. Guess it winter, very cold at night even with aircon off and all windows close, extra blanket would be nice.
After our trip to China, we extended our stay in the same apt for three more nights.....was so glad that the host actually changed fresh sets of bed sheets and the apt was cleaned for our return. He was courteous to allow us to leave our extra baggage in apt while away in China. Mr. Osmond was puncture in meeting us for the check in. Thank you guys, appreciated what you both did, to make our stay comfortable. Thumbs up to you!
Pros: Apartment very clean, location accessible and near to mrt, shopping and restaurants.
Host: Mr. Dietrich and Mr. Osmond are very responsible and quick in responding to our requests.
Cons: Apartment have too many personal belongings, which make the
home a little too clustered
Tip: travellers do take note to try booking for flight that is more suitable to the checking time which is 2 pm to avoid any wait time especially if your flight arrive early and you may not have access to apt. and could be stranded with your luggages for few hrs especially when travelling with young kids (luckily, we did not have our kids with us on this trip)
Overall review: Highly recommended. Thank you, Mr. Dietrich and Mr. Osmond
What my friend said during their stay:
Osmand was very accomodating. The place is clean, nice, spacious, and all appliances are working well. It is near the market, playground, food stores, and MTR station, so everything is convenient.
Had a super time and the host was fantastic and very gracious. Went well beyond my expectation n provided 110% service. We are two adults n two children. Very safe and clean n good location. May I add host went well beyond his calling..organised a cab n then rung driver to ensure we were collected, recommend organising this!! Plus very graciously let us have a late shower m check out as our plane departed late! In hindsight this would have not been convenient but again accommodated us. Great experience and would stay again next time. Very nice man!
I booked apartment for Mum as she was visiting her sister in Hong Kong. The apartment is close to Prince Edward station and there are bus stop close by includes the airport bus link. The apartment is spacious by Hong Kong standard; there are windows in each room provide fresh air. The host is contactable by text message or what's app at ant time if the day and willing to help out with any enquires etc. All in all it was a good experience. Thank you.
