LONDON, Jan. 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Warburg Pincus, a leading global private equity firm focused on growth investing, today announced the appointment of Peter Kukielski as an Executive-in-Residence (EIR). Mr. Kukielski will work with Warburg Pincus to identify and evaluate investment opportunities in the mining industry globally with a view to forming a new mining company.
Mr. Kukielski was previously Chief Executive of ArcelorMittal Mining where he built the company's global mining business into one of the world's five largest iron ore and metallurgical coal producers. Prior to joining ArcelorMittal, Mr. Kukielski held senior executive positions at several other mining companies, including Teck Resources, Falconbridge and Noranda (now Glencore Xstrata) and Rio Algom (now BHP Billiton).
Mr. Kukielski commented, "The reduction in capital available to the mining sector and greater uncertainty in the commodities environment create a compelling investment environment for experienced operators with available capital and a long-term, patient view. I am excited to be working with Warburg Pincus and believe that now is the right time to build a new world-class mining company that is committed to the highest standards of environmental, social and corporate governance."
Somit Varma, Managing Director, Warburg Pincus added, "Peter has tremendous depth and experience in the mining industry globally, most recently as the leader of one of the world's largest mining businesses. We believe that there are a number of attractive investment opportunities to evaluate in the mining sector and are pleased to be partnering with such an experienced individual as Peter."
Warburg Pincus has significant experience in working with leading industry executives as "Executives-in-Residence," a program designed to provide best-in-class executives the opportunity to identify and evaluate investment opportunities and construct a business plan prior to launching a business. Recent examples in the energy sector include Brian Reinsborough, CEO of Venari Resources, a deep water exploration company in the Gulf of Mexico and Rahul Dhir, CEO of Delonex Energy, an exploration and production company focused on Central and East Africa.

Senate Democrats this week delayed a vote on a $157 billion economic stimulus package in a move to attract Republican support.
The plan, which adds additional tax rebates and write-offs to a $145 billion package approved last week by the House and backed by the White House, includes extra provisions for businesses, veterans and senior citizens.
To be approved, the plan would require 60 votes. The Senate is expected to vote on the measure later this week.

Hello - planning a trip to YNP mid Aug 2012. I have been checking cancellations daily and here is what I have so far for in park lodging:
First night have a reservation at Mammoth.
Second and third night at Roosevelt - Frontier Cabins (I know totally lucked out)
Fourth night - Lake Hotel
I would like to get into OF but so far that hasn't happened. Here is my debate....before I scored the RL I booked two nights in Silver Gate, MT. My thought was fly into Billings and drive the Beartooth Hwy to Silver Gate and enter the park there to see Lamar Valley. Now should I cancel that all together since I have two nights at RL and grab a room in West Yellowstone (in case we never get OF) and skip BTH or keep one night at Silver Gate to include that route? Planning on up to 5/6 nights in park (or just outside).
Thanks a ton!

Yellowstone - Help I'm a rookie
Hello - planning a trip to YNP mid Aug 2012. I have been checking cancellations daily and here is what I have so far for in park lodging:
Report Abuse
I would drive BTH and keep that night. You should be able to score something at Old Faithful. Take the first one you can get, lodge, inn, cabin, etc. Then maybe you'll get lucky and get the one you actually want later. Sounds like you've made good progress, even if nothing else becomes available.
For me Mammoth is the least interesing spot(certainly worth a bit of time though). Geyser Basin around Old Faithful-I could spend several days there just geyser gazing.
Report Abuse
I think the general opinion would be that Mammoth isn't what it used to be and I would try to drop that.
Call every day or more often and try for OF. I really like the location of Canyon. Close to the big falls and near wildlife. Tower might also be a good area.
When you get OF that might eliminate Lake as they're not too far.
Are you planning anything for Grand Tetons. It's a beautiful place. I would try for Signal Mountain.
Call, call, call. The problem is that most tours and people release their unwanted rooms in the last month. So it might look bleak until suddenly you get what you need.
Yellowstone is a very big park and you might not want to be driving at night due to wildlife.
Report Abuse
Thanks. Not planning anything for GT. It is our first trip to YNP and can't do everything especially with a 7 and 9 year old.
Wondering if I should cancel the Silver Gate night and just drive to Roosevelt. I'm estimating an hour and a 1/2 to get from the NE entrance to Roosevelt which would equal a full day of driving from Billings area.....have to think that one over. Somebody trashed the Pine Edge cabins in Silver Gate so I am having second thoughts there. Might pick a place about an hour away from Billings airport to cut down on the drive the next day.....
Report Abuse
I wouldn't cancel anything, until you had more nights somewhere else. We really really liked staying at Lake, so I don't think I would eliminate that night. Mammoth might not be a bad thing to stay at, I just wouldn't spend the entire day right in that area. It certainly could be somewhere you end up at though. Since you are there in August, you might spend part of that day soaking in the Boiling River(which is near Gardiner).
Report Abuse
Do not skip Beartooth Highway. That drive is always one of my highlights anytime I visit Yellowstone.

A heated debate broke out in Parliament today as two of the country's most prominent female politicians went head-to-head, with one telling the other to "zip it, sweetie".
Social Development Minister Paula Bennett directed the quip at Labour MP and social development spokeswoman Jacinda Ardern.
Ardern asked Bennett if she could confirm that of the 1300 young people in the Limited Service Volunteer Training course, more than 1000 failed to complete the course or were on a benefit three months later.
She then asked the minister whether that was a sign her government wasn't making a difference, "and that the jobs just aren't there".
Bennett attempted to answer but her voice was faded out by the interjections of opposition members, including Ardern.
"If you want to listen to the answer," she said, before adding "zip it, sweetie," a remark directed at Ardern.
At age 32, Ardern is one of the youngest female MPs and number four on the Labour list.
She was about to stand from her chair to object to the comment, but her colleague Trevor Mallard beat her to it.
Defending Ardern, Mallard told speaker Lockwood Smith that "zip it" might have been okay but "sweetie" wasn't.
"If that term was used to a member who was not a younger woman member, in that sort of approach, I think you would find it offensive," he said to Smith.
Smith admitted his hearing wasn't the best and he hadn't heard the comment over all the background noise.
"The level of objection was so high I didn't hear what the minister said," Smith said.
However, he didn't view it as a highly offensive remark.
"If members interject in a rude manner they may get a less than perfect reaction from the minister," Smith said.
A Social Development Ministry spokesman said of the 1,300 young people who participated in LSV in 2011/12, around 400 did not complete the course. Around 600 were on benefit three months later. Of these 219 were in training.
Bennett told Parliament that some of the participants had dropped out of the training due to medical reasons and homesickness.
"It's quite an active and quite an intense course."

Sharks getting stronger: Logan Couture set to return to lineup tonight; Heatley off suspension
Mar 23, 2011, 6:32 PM EDT
How does a team that's been playing hot of late find a way to get better? They get their rookie of the year candidate back in the lineup. San Jose will see Logan Couture come back from a lower body injury and rejoin the lineup tonight against Calgary.
Couture has 27 goals and 21 assists this year putting him third amongst rookies in overall points behind Jeff Skinner and Michael Grabner. Couture has been a spark plug this season for the Sharks while other veteran players have gone through the motions with slumps. Everyone from Joe Thornton to Patrick Marleau to Dany Heatley have had their bouts with inconsistent play this year but Couture has been a rock and is second on the team in goals behind Marleau.
Speaking of Heatley, he makes his return to the lineup tonight as well after missing two games thanks to his elbow to the head of Dallas' Steve Ott. Given that the Sharks have won three in a row now without Couture and Heatley thanks to getting great play from Joe Pavelski and Marleau, if Couture and Heatley can come back and get their own offense going the Sharks look very dangerous heading into the playoffs.

You did actually read the article, right? This isn't another Fed vs. Zeon clone, it's more like Star Wars Battlefront with mobile suits. Completely different gameplay setup from the previous PS2 games.
Though I'd like to see some space combat action in the next batch of screenshots, as the way the gameplay is being displayed now doesn't seem to friendly to such a thing. And I really would like this very promising gameplay engine to be the first to provide a solid space combat experience in a Gundam game.
Not to mention A Bao A Qu would make a SUPERB last level.

Well, Microsoft is obviously paying big bux to get them to release a Gundam game for the X360. In fact, I think it''s a collaboration between Bandai and Microsoft.
- Microsoft wants a game to appeal to the Japanese
- Bandai wants a game that willl revive the Gundam name in North America, because Gundam is pretty much dormant in North America since Gundam Wing last aired...and from the way it looks like, X360 will probably do very well in North America, thanks to the PS3 delay and what-not.
So it works both way
As for the gameplay, the Gamespot reports says it'll be a Battlefield 1942 type of game, so you'll play the common foot soldier, and you can ride Mobile Suits and kick tiny people's ass. A game that'll allow you to experience what it feels like to be a common soldier, so I'm very loooking forward to this.

The new gameplay system sounds cool. Too bad I won't be able to get a 360 anytime soon.
But are they ever going to go past the One Year War? I mean, we have Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam (should've been called AEUG vs. Titans like it is in Japan), but that's just a clone of Federation vs. Zeon with new mobile suits. They should make a new game with an all-new gameplay system set during Operation Stardust (0083) or the events in Char's Counterattack, or hell, even set in some of the alternate universes, like G, Wing or SEED.

Reviving the Gundam name by... not calling it Gundam?
|Back to top
Posts: 27
My God!!! What will happen if the game is good but people find out it was originally called "Gundam"? What a disaster!!!! Sales will drop virtually to zero and gamers all across America will start huge bonfires burning every purchased copy of the game ever, shouting "It's Gundam!!!! How could you lie to us like that!?!?!?!?" Some gamers will be institutionalized for months, with electro-shock therapy being the only remedy in fixing the psychological damage that came from buying a game that was really "Gundam." Others will have nightmares, seeing themselves playing a "Gundam" game for years to come. Oh the travesty. Oh the horror. Anime fans unite. It is your duty to make sure the name "Gundam" stays out of every city, every neighborhood, every household! We must strike the name Gundam from America in order for Gundam to secretly thrive without harming an innocent soul. Quick, call your congressman! Ask them to ban all the Japanese sites! Ban all the fan sites. We must keep the gaming comunity from knowing the dark truth about this game. We must destroy the word "Gundam," in order for Gundam to survive in the U.S.
Who's with me?
*nothing but dead silence*
....yea, I think it's pretty stupid too. I don't see why they can't include the name either.
|Back to top

|Hmm, I'm rather mixed on this. It's not so much that "Gundam" was taken out of the title as it is the game itself looks to revive Gundam by being well, not Gundam. I don't like the idea of a Gundam game being an FPS (never did play Dreamcast's Side Story), and I agree with Nagisa that there's gotta be some space combat or something, otherwise it's going to be just another FPS in an attempt to attract Battlefield and Halo fans. I'm guessing that there won't be much story focus (not sure how they would put someone like Lalah and her Elmeth or even the Zeong in). Also any word on how much of the One Year War we're actually going to see? Are we gonna get to see Amuro and Char? Do we get to participate in the major battles like Jaburo? Or is this just going to be taking mobile suits and soldiers and sticking them in stages with the One Year War as the setting? I'm always up for a new Gundam game, and outside of wanting it to be decent I want it to be Gundam. I guess what I'm getting as is I want a little flair to this game outside of your typical FPS which is all that I'm seeing.

Yeah, to be calling it "One Year War" and then leave out at the very least Operation Odessa and the offensive at Jaburo would be like calling a game "American Civil War" without having Gettysburg, or "World War II" without some form of D-Day or Midway (depending on which theatre you're referring to).
Also, though it may be a little nitpicky, the mobile suits in the video I saw seem a little slow and lumbering during the actual gameplay. I don't want to play a Gundam game for Mechwarrior action, I want to play a Gundam game for Gundam action, if you catch my drift. A little bit more speed and agility would be nice.

Headlines September 24, 2004 Full Show | First Story >
Allawi: Iraq Is "Moving In The Right Direction"
The unelected prime minister of Iraq, Ayad Allawi thanked the president and Congress for taking down the regime of Saddam Hussein. He told Congress "Things are moving in the right direction." Allawi also attacked critics of the occupation and suggested they may be fueling the opposition. He said "When political leaders sound the sirens of defeatism in the face of terrorism, it only encourages more violence."
Although this marked Allawi's first address before Congress he has long had ties to the U.S. government as a CIA asset and as the head of the U.S.-supported Iraqi exile group called the Iraqi National Accord.
Rumsfeld: Up to 25% Of Iraq May Not Vote in Election
Allawi vowed the Iraqi elections scheduled for January would go ahead as planned. But Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld yesterday revealed that between 20 to 25 percent of the country may not take part in the elections because of continued violence. Rumsfeld admitted it would be "an election that's not quite perfect."
Pentagon Plans 15,000 More Troops For Iraq
The Wall Street Journal is reporting the Pentagon has plans to send 15,000 more troops to Iraq ahead of the elections.
Kerry: Allawi's Here To Help Bush
Senator John Kerry criticized Allawi's speech and accused him of contradicting statements he made to the press just days before. Kerry said Allawi's remarks were "highly selective and designed to thank the president and ultimately help the president." Many in the press noted how Allawi's comments echoed–both in tone and content–key themes of Bush's reelection campaign.
Allawi: Capture Of Saddam Has Prevented Terrorist Attacks
Last night in an interview with The Newhour on PBS, Allawi even attempted to connect Saddam Hussein with the Sept. 11th attacks. He said "I assure you if Saddam was still there, terrorists will be hitting there again at Washington and New York, as they did in the murderous attack in September; they'll be hitting also on other places in Europe and the Middle East."
Iraqi Oil Official Killed; Pipelines Bombed
Violence continued yesterday in Iraq. In Mosul, a senior Iraqi oil official was shot dead. He had previously survived two other assassination attempts. In the province of Anbar, one U.S. Marine was killed. 1,037 U.S. soldiers have now died in Iraq. Pipelines north of Baghdad and in Najaf were attacked yesterday disrupting oil exports.
Egyptians Kidnapped in Iraq
Meanwhile in Baghdad two Egyptians working for a mobile phone company were kidnapped from their company's office.
Fate of Kidnapped Italians Still Unknown
And the fate of the kidnapped Italian women Simona Torretta and SimonaPari is still unknown. Two Iraqi groups have now claimed to have executed the women but the Italian government has cast doubts on the claims. The women were in Iraq with the group A Bridge to Baghdad, which opposed the U.S. occupation.
Nat'l Guard Falls Short Of Recruiting Goal
In other news related to Iraq, the U.S. National Guard is reporting that it will fall short of its recruiting goal for the first time in a decade. The Guard will likely fall about 5,000 members short of its goal of 56,000.
Death Toll in Haiti May Rise to 2,000
Officials in Haiti are fearing the death toll from recent floods may soon rise over 2,000. Over 1,100 people have been confirmed dead and another 1,200 are still missing. The country's third largest city, Gonaives, is devastated. At least 4,000 homes are destroyed. Rivers of mud have flowed through the city. Survivors are shoveling mud out of their homes. The mayor of the city said yesterday, ''There is no water, no electricity, no communication. Many people don't have a place to sleep.'' The United Nations arrived yesterday to distribute food but many aid vehicles have had difficulty reaching the city. Just outside Gonaives, part of the main road is still submerged under three feet of water. The floods in Haiti were caused by Hurricane Ivan. Meanwhile Florida is bracing to be hit by a fourth hurricane this season. Hurricane Jeanne is expected to hit land this weekend.
Kerry's Wife: Don't Be Surprised If Osama Caught Soon
On the campaign front, John Kerry's wife, Theresa Heinz-Kerry told a crowd in Phoenix that Al Qaeda leader may be captured before the election. She said "I wouldn't be surprised if he appeared in the next month."
CAIR Questions U.S. Treatment of Cat Stevens
The Council on American Islamic Relations has called on President Bush to explain why the singer Cat Stevens, also known as Yusuf Islam, was denied entry to the country this week. The singer was on board a trans-Atlantic flight when officials learned his name appeared on a terror watch list. The plane was diverted to Maine and the singer was denied entry to the country. In a statement group CAIR said that treating "mainstream and moderate Muslims like Yusuf Islam as if they are criminals or terrorists, without bringing charges or allowing due process, sends the message to the Islamic world that even those who seek peace and condemn terror are not fit to enter the United States." Back in London Islam said he had felt victimized by the process. He said "The one positive thing I can say is that a lot of security officers are very pleased because they got my autograph."
UK Anglicans Calls For Divestment From Israel
In Britain, an influential Anglican group is planning ask church leaders to impose a boycott of Israel and firms that do business there in protest of the occupation. This according to a report in the Guardian of London. The divestment campaign proposed by the Anglican Peace and Justice Network is similar to ones used to fight apartheid in South Africa. In July, the Presbyterian church in the US became the first major denomination to agree to a formal boycott of Israel.
Arnold Vetoes Drivers License Bill
In California, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has vetoed a bill that would have given 2 million undocumented immigrants California driver licenses. Last year then Governor Gray Davis signed into law a similar bill but the legislature repealed it shortly after Davis was recalled.
NYPD Threatens Arrests At Critical Mass Ride
And in New York, police are threatening to arrest participants in tonight's Critical Mass bike ride. Last month police arrested and jailed 264 riders. The ride came shortly before the start of the Republican National Convention. It marked the first mass arrests during the week of the convention. Before last month's ride, police seldom made arrests during the monthly rides which have been taking place for the past 10 years.

Product description
One of the least-known stories of World War II, Operation Mars was an epic military disaster. Designed to dislodge the German Army from its position west of Moscow, Mars cost the Soviets an estimated 335,000 dead, missing, and wounded men and over 1,600 tanks. But in Russian history books, it was a battle that never happened a historical debacle sacrificed to Stalin's postwar censorship. David Glantz now offers the first definitive account of this forgotten catastrophe, revealing the key players and detailing the major events of Operation Mars. Using neglected sources in both German and Russian archives, he reconstructs the historical context of Mars and reviews the entire operation from High Command to platoon level. Orchestrated and led by Marshal Georgi Kostantinovich Zhukov, one of the Soviet Union's great military heroes, the twin operations Mars and Uranus formed the centerpiece of Soviet strategic efforts in the fall of 1942. Launched in tandem with Operation Uranus, the successful counteroffensive at Stalingrad, Mars proved a monumental setback. Fought in bad weather and on impossible terrain, the ambitious offensive faltered despite spectacular initial success in some sectors: Zhukov kept sending in more troops and tanks only to see them decimated by the entrenched Germans. Illuminating the painful progress of Operation Mars with vivid battle scenes and numerous maps and illustrations, Glantz presents Mars as a major failure of Zhukov's renowned command. Yet, both during and after the war, that failure was masked from public view by the successful Stalingrad operation, thus eliminating any stain from Zhukov's public image as a hero of the Great Patriotic War. For three grueling weeks, Operation Mars was one of the most tragic and agonizing episodes in Soviet military history. Glantz's reconstruction of that failed offensive fills a major gap in our knowledge of World War II, even as it raises important questions about the reputations of national military heroes."

David M. Glantz is founder and former director of the U.S. Army's Foreign Military Studies Office. His many books include The Battle of Kursk, The Battle for Leningrad, When Titans Clashed, Stumbling Colossus, and Colossus Reborn (see pages 31 and 49)
Review quote
"The Soviet dead, missing and wounded were estimated at a staggering 335,000. Glantz describes the appalling carnage that occurred in the forests, mud, fog, freezing temperatures and raging snowstorms of western Russia [and] brings Operation Mars vividly to life." - New York Times Book Review "This gripping study of the Soviet counter-offensive - a work of permanent value - reveals the full extent of Zhukov's failure." - New York Review of Books "Glantz's evidence is impressive, his conclusions totally convincing, and the actual military detail unrivaled in the literature. A truly important work." - Malcolm Macintosh, author of Juggernaut: A History of Soviet Armed Forces "Shows how greatly Soviet leaders distorted the war's history in their attempts to present themselves as incapable of error." - International History Review "Vivid, powerful, compelling." - World War II"

Shadow of Doubt
George B. Seitz
Ricardo Cortez, Virginia Bruce
USDVD release date:
Ricardo Cortez and Virginia Bruce get top billing because they're pretty, but the real star is Constance Collier, a famous stage performer making her talkie debut as a forbidding old battle-axe with a heart of gold. Ever since her fiancé died, she's lived in her mansion like Miss Havisham, playing cribbage with her butler, peering through her lorgnette, and making biting comments. She refuses to step outside, but recently she's been listening to the radio and watching films in her own projection room. When her nephew (Cortez), the ass, gets mixed up with an actress and presumed gold-digger (Bruce) who's accused of murder, she finally crosses her threshold to investigate personally, and does a pretty fair job of it. She's like a haughty Miss Marple who's not above swilling champagne in a nightclub or trading barbs with flatfoots. The mystery's okay, but the movie takes off when she's center stage. It's directed with pace by George B. Seitz, a serial pioneer who finished up helming Mickey Rooney's Andy Hardy movies. This forgotten diversion is now available from Warner Archive.
