Hansteen Hldgs plc (HSTN) - Interim Management Statement RNS Number : 2802R Hansteen Holdings plc 16 November 2012 16 November 2012 Hansteen Holdings PLC ("Hansteen" or the "Company") Hansteen Holdings (LSE:HSTN), the UK and Continental property investment company, announces its Interim Management Statement for the period from 1 July to 16 November 2012. Highlights: - £26.4 million of acquisitions in the period with an annualised rent roll of £2.4 million reflecting 10.6% initial yield - Over £250 million of acquisitions since fundraising in April 2011 - £14.1 million committed to two pre-let developments in Germany - 13 sales totalling £17.8 million in the period, 27 sales totalling £45.6 million year to date - 244 new leases and lease renewals to 31 October 2012 securing £5.4 million rent per annum - Annualised rent roll, on wholly owned portfolio, increased to £66.47 million, at 31 October (30 June 2012: £65.7 million) For further information: Ian Watson/ Morgan Jones Jeremy Carey / Amy Walker Hansteen Holdings PLC Tavistock Communications Tel: 020 7408 7000 Tel: 020 7920 3150 Overview Since the Interim Statement for June 2012 Hansteen's key indicators have all been positive. Cash flow has been strong, with normalised income profit continuing to grow in line with the Board's expectations. Absolute and like-for-like occupancy and rental income on the wholly owned portfolio have all improved. We believe that our business model demonstrates the attractiveness of high-yielding secondary property. Providing that you buy carefully and have the capacity to manage vigorously, our experience continues to be that a large, diversified portfolio of high-yielding industrial property produces a strong and reliable income with the genuine prospect of substantial capital growth when markets recover. During the period, Hansteen has acquired £26.4million of property with a rent of £2.4 million reflecting a yield of 10.6%. This takes gross acquisitions, since our £147 million fundraising in April 2011, to over £250 million. So far, these acquisitions are performing in-line with, or better than, our projections at the time of acquisition. In addition, we have committed £13.6 million to two substantial pre-let developments in Germany which will, on completion, produce running yields of around 10%, from strong tenants on long leases. Liquidity in the industrial property investment market is improving slightly, particularly in Germany and we have taken advantage of this to make a further 13 sales, totalling £17.8 million since the half year. This brings sales to date this year to 27 with a total value of £45.6 million. The overall yield on properties sold so far this year is 4.9%. For the year to date all of the sales were made at a surplus to the valuation with one exception. In the UK, we sold one of the larger remaining Kilmartin assets at a £1.2 million deficit to book as we decided that the value and potential returns were diminishing and long term redevelopment value was becoming more uncertain. We therefore chose to realise the capital and to reinvest it in new projects. Operationally, there has continued to be a high level of activity throughout this period. Hansteen completed 244 new leases and lease renewals between 30 June and 31 October 2012, securing rental income of £5.4 million per annum. The total rent roll, on the wholly-owned portfolio, has increased from £65.7 million, at 30 June 2012, to £66.47 million at 31 October 2012. During the period, adverse exchange rate movements reduced the Sterling equivalent annualised rent roll by £0.3 million, sales reduced the rent roll by £1.18 million per annum and acquisitions added £2.4 million. In addition to the current operations, we are seeing increasing new business opportunities to invest our capital in each of the areas in which we operate. Hansteen's pan-European asset management structure is proving a valuable resource, both for Hansteen's own portfolio and for the possibilities that it provides to work out distressed portfolios throughout Europe. The Board believes that this infrastructure and evident expertise will provide opportunities for the business in the future. UK Across the UK wholly-owned portfolio, like-for-like vacancy was reduced by 7.5% or 6,560 sq m, and, following the acquisition of West Horndon, which included 19,459 of void space, vacancy stands at 99,401 sq m, that is 31.5% of our UK portfolio (30 June 2012: 86,502 sq m, 33%). Like-for-like rent increased, albeit not proportionately to the reduction in vacancy as some vacant properties were sold during the period. The rent roll at 31 October now stands at £10.1 million (30 June 2012: £9.2 million). Within the HPUT portfolio, vacancy increased by 12,322 sq m to 70,529 sq m or 20.4% (30 June 2012: 59,903 sq m, 16.8%), reducing the HPUT rent roll by £771,000 per annum. The bulk of this vacancy increase can be attributed to the BBC vacating two large units at the Treforest Industrial Estate. We were aware, when we acquired this estate in 2010, that the BBC would be leaving these units when their lease expired and this was reflected in our acquisition business plan. There continues to be a good level of letting activity in the UK where 47 lettings were concluded up to the end of October, generating £0.6 million per annum of income. Since the half year, there have been 5 sales, totalling £6.2 million from the UK wholly-owned portfolio and 5 sales for £4.1 million from the HPUT. Benelux In the Benelux region, vacancy reduced on a like-for-like basis by 5.4% or 8,388 sq m to 148,249 sq m, that is 32.3% of the Benelux portfolio (30th June 2012 156,637sq m, 34.1%). Likewise, the rent roll increased from €14 million to €14.2 million. We do not believe that this is a reflection of any improvement in the occupational market for industrial property in the Benelux but that our local asset management team has worked hard to generate and convert more enquiries. Germany The occupational market in Germany is still strong, although vacancy increased fractionally to 197,863 sq m (14.2%) (30 June 2012: 169,165 sq m, 13.8%), with the like-for-like rent roll similarly shading down. The actual rent roll remained stable at €55.8 million. There was 88,598 sq m of new lettings and lease renewals to 149 tenants during the period, representing rental income of €4.1 million per annum. Three properties were sold, all profitably, for a total of €11.8 million, with a rent roll of €0.8 million. There was one acquisition comprising three individual units in Uhingen, Henstedt-Ulzburg and Grevenbroich during the period, with a combined rent of €1.17 million per annum and a cost of €10.1 million. Work commenced on two substantial pre-let developments. In Hanau an existing empty office block is being completely redeveloped in order to provide 8,316 sq m of top quality offices for Heraeus, a substantial German occupier. The project, which will cost approximately €9 million, commenced in February 2012 with completion expected in October 2013. Heraeus has signed a 10 year lease at an initial rent of €0.9 million per annum. This development will enhance the entire Hanau property which comprises 40,764 sq m. The second development is in Bremen where we are building a 20,000 sq m institutional quality distribution building for the logistics company, LIT. The expected construction cost is €9.5 million and the rent committed on completion, expected in April 2013, is €1.0 million per annum. Currency Hansteen reports its results in sterling although it is exposed to investments in the Euro zone. Between 30^th June and 31^st October the Euro fell against the sterling by 0.6%. As reported in our Interim Statement, Hansteen has currency hedging in place with €200 million currency hedges representing some two thirds of the current Euro denominated net assets and €70 million of Euro income hedged in four tranches over 2 years. Outlook Hansteen's regional asset management offices are enjoying considerable success in retaining existing occupiers, attracting new occupiers and achieving profitable sales. Having our own people on the ground close to the properties, marketing the vacant space directly, is giving us a significant competitive edge. We are seeing an increasing number of interesting acquisition opportunities in all of our core regions. Acquisition opportunities in this market take a long time to conclude and are often complex but there has recently been a noticeable increase in such discussions in all of our geographic regions and in several situations we are in detailed due diligence albeit this is no guarantee that a deal will be consummated. Whilst it is possible that valuations of high-yielding secondary industrial property will come under pressure in the short-term, the Board believes that today's values represent fundamental worth. The current value per sq m of the portfolio is around half replacement cost without taking account of any value in the land. Furthermore, the income derived from the portfolio is high, resilient and well diversified. In addition to that income, Hansteen continues to enjoy the twin drivers for growth of further capital capacity and approximately 500,000 sq m of vacant space to let or sell. As a result, the portfolio and the business should continue to generate high and growing returns over the next few years which is expected to manifest itself in a progressive, but prudent, dividend distribution.

With a team-worst, minus-16 rating heading into Wednesday's game against the New Jersey Devils, first-year Avalanche defenseman Jan Hejda has taken his share of heat for the club's 10-13-1 record through 24 games.
Game No. 25 for the hulking Hejda, however, was a beauty, as Colorado's big free-agent offseason acquisition scored a goal and was plus-3 in the Avs' 6-1 victory over goalie Martin Brodeur and the Devils at the Pepsi Center.
"Plus-3 right now is big for me, feels better than the goal I scored," Hejda, a 6-foot-4, 237-pound shutdown defenseman, said of his overlapping statistics. "Plus-3 feels unbelievable."
Hejda's goal was his third of the season, two shy of his career high, and second in his last three games. Milan Hej-duk, TJ Galiardi, Ryan O'Reilly, Jay McClement and Stefan Elliott also scored as the Avs improved to 5-9 at home, 3-3 during its eight-game homestand and 6-1 against Eastern Conference teams.
O'Reilly led Colorado with three points, including two assists, and joined Hejda and linemate Gabriel Landeskog with a team-high plus-3 rating. Elliott, the 20-year-old rookie defenseman, extended his point streak to three games (two goals, assist) since making his NHL debut Saturday.
"Good effort, and it's nice to score six goals," said Hejduk, the Avs' captain who made his debut on the O'Reilly-centered line with Landeskog. "You know how we were struggling offensively. This feels great. We have to take lots of positives from tonight's game and bring confidence to the next game and play with the same passion."
The Avs got first-period goals from Hejduk (7:37), Galiardi (14:14) and Hejda (16:02) to take advantage of a seemingly flat Devils team that hadn't played since Saturday. Hejda was also on the ice when Hejduk and Galiardi struck, making him plus-3 after 20 minutes.
"When you're a defensive defenseman, you take pride in (plus-minus). That's a tough number to look at," Avs coach Joe Sacco said of Hejda's pre-game minus-16. "We tried to talk about trying to put it behind him and kind of just start over. He's been getting better lately, there's no question. He's defending much better. He's harder to play against and any offense that we get from him is a bonus."
High-priced Devils winger Ilya Kovalchuk was minus-3 in the first period and minus-4 for the game.
He scored the only goal of the second period to get the visitors within two goals, but O'Reilly scored 2:47 into the third period and McClement effectively put the game away with a shorthanded goal at 10:32.
"The first period was a bad period for us," Devils captain Zach Parise said. "We just got outworked all over the rink. We were getting stripped of the puck all the time. We couldn't get out of our zone, and they were winning every single race to the puck. Next thing we know, we are down 3-0."

Dianne Lee Pitner, 69, passed away at her home in Damascus, Ore., on Monday, Aug. 19, 2013, of heart failure.
Dianne was born April 18, 1944, to Dallas and Marjorie Russell in Dayton.
Dianne started school in Dixie. In 1953 the family moved to Walla Walla, where Dianne attended Washington Elementary, Garrison Junior High and graduated in 1962 from Walla Walla High School.
On Aug. 18, 1962, she married Bob Pitner, her childhood sweetheart.

Over the years Dianne enjoyed golf, bowling, cross stitching and tending to her plants.
Dianne is survived by her husband at the home in Damascus; her sister, Linda Bond of San Diego; brother, Don Russell of Walla Walla; nephews, Russell and David Bond and Pete Russell; and niece, Alison Nightingale. She is preceded in death by her son, Jonathon; her parents; and an infant sister.

A group campaigning for the right of Saudi women to drive sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asking why she hasn't expressed support for those who defied a ban on driving last week.
More than 50 women got behind the wheels of their cars on June 17, according to Saudi Women for Driving, a group of women's-rights activists, bloggers and academics challenging the world's only ban on female drivers. No arrests were reported.
In a letter released today, the group said it asked Clinton in a June 3 letter to "make a public statement supporting our right to drive."
"Three days ago, on June 17, more Saudi women drove a car than ever before," the group said in today's letter. "But as we launch the largest women's rights movement in Saudi history, where are you when we need you most? In the context of the Arab Spring and U.S. commitments to support women's rights, is this not something the United States's top diplomat would want to publicly support?"
The group sent a similar letter to European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.
The driving campaign began last month when a group of Saudis called on women with international driver's licenses through the Facebook and Twitter social-networking websites to get in their cars and drive on June 17. They insisted their plan wasn't a protest. Saudi Arabia, holder of the world's biggest oil reserves, has avoided the anti-government demonstrations that have rocked the Arab world this year.

One of the last times I saw Bernie Williams play at Yankee Stadium, he attempted to throw out a runner at the plate from shallow center field. And "attempted" is used loosely here, because the ball bounced twice and came to rest just inside the pitcher's mound. That was 2006.
("I'll reel in the big free agents with smooth jazz")
But despite a budding career as a musician, Bernie still has the baseball bug and expressed interest in making a comeback — though it appears he only would want to return to the Yankees. Your move, Brian Cashman.
Quotes from Bernie after the jump.
In Kevin Kernan's NEW YORK POST column from yesterday, Bernie says he's still keeping himself in shape just in case the Yankees decide they're in the market for a 40-year-old "outfielder":
"It's the opportunity of a lifetime, especially with the way that Stadium is looking and to be a part of that experience," Williams said at the Cutting Room on 24th Street. "It would be great."
This just may be dream talk and movie hype, but Williams is convinced he could still play, and not just in a movie, if the opportunity presented itself.
"I'm looking to keeping my options open, keep working out," explained Williams.
The movie hype Kernan speaks of is a film called Keeper of the Pinstripes, in which Bernie is slated to play the role of a street musician who eventually ends up playing for the Yankees. According to Kernan, it's the first movie fully approved by the team since Pride of the Yankees. Now there's a ringing endorsement. I'm just going to assume Hank Steinbrenner will be playing the role of Babe Ruth.
Now, Bernie could just be blowing smoke to bring some publicity to the movie, and maybe to his own musical career, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that he still really thinks he can play and that the Yankees owe it to him. He seemed to be somewhat incredulous that the team wasn't interested in bringing him back in 2007, despite declining offensive numbers in his last two seasons and his glaring inability to play the outfield.
Although, compared to what Melky Cabrera's been giving them since he left, Bernie's probably not the worst option available.

Muong Lay
Eat and meet
Muong LayNot surprising, for a town which has had to uproot, there's not much in the way of dining options in Muong Lay. If you're staying in town — at the Lan Anh of course — then eating there is probably your best bet. It has a reasonably varied menu of rice, noodles and stir fries, as well as breakfasts, and the food's tasty enough. Plus it saves the dark trek up to Highway 12.
If you're just passing through or need to escape the hotel then one place worth trying is the Son Hoa, on the intersection of Highway 12 and the road to the Lan Anh. It doesn't look much but wander in looking hungry and they'll sort something tasty out for you for around 40,000 VND.
Son Hoa: Town road, near the road into town, on the hill, Muong Lay. T: (0230) 385 3529.

Australian Foreign Minister Warns on Protectionism
SYDNEY—Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd warned Wednesday against the world slipping toward protectionist trade policies in response to the European debt crisis and dramatic fluctuations in currency markets that are adding to global uncertainty.
In an exclusive interview before flying to the U.S. for key defense talks, Mr. Rudd said "any economy large or small has to maintain an open international trading system" and not set up artificial tariffs, which had made previous historic downturns like the Great Depression of the 1930s more protracted.
Fears that major industrialized nations and developed economies may turn to protectionist economic policies were stoked when Switzerland placed a floor on the rate of exchange between the franc and the euro in an effort to control funds flowing into the safe-haven nation. Analysts warn that a rise in protectionism may emerge if the global economy takes a turn for the worse, putting greater pressure on the U.S. trade relationship with China.
"Any student of economic history will tell you that it was not the financial crash of 1929 that caused the Great Depression, it was economies turning in on themselves and protecting them with massive tariff walls thereby collapsing global economic growth. We can't afford to repeat those mistakes now," Mr. Rudd said.
In the U.S., leading Republicans have put pressure on President Barack Obama's administration over its record on safeguarding jobs and trade against cheaper Asian competition and specifically tackling the imbalance with China. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney in the summer accused China of manipulating the value of its currency to make its exports cheaper and imports more expensive, stealing intellectual property and using tariffs to keep U.S. goods out.
Mr. Rudd, who formerly served as Australia's prime minister, argues that the Group of 20 nations has an important role to play in ensuring global financial stability but cautioned that "what happens in Europe, what happens in America, also affects directly what happens in Asia and the Pacific." Australia's economy, dependent on the export of raw materials like iron ore and coal to China, could be dangerously exposed to any sudden downturn in manufacturing, or construction in the world's second-largest economy.
Europe's sovereign-debt crisis continues to worsen amid concerns that cash-strapped Greece risks default and Italy will struggle to implement necessary austerity measures and cut its debt. According to official figures, the 27-nation European Union is Australia's second-largest trading partner, accounting for about 83 billion Australian dollars (US$85.5 billion) of two-way trade. Europe is the largest investor in Australia, according to the government.
"If there is a further weakening in demand in the European and American economies then of course that directly affects export markets from Asia as well, which in turn affects economic growth, which in turn affects economies directly integrated with the major economies in Asia," Mr. Rudd said.
The foreign minister said he will meet U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in San Francisco to discuss regional security issues and defense posturing before heading to Mexico and then meetings of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. He will also attend the G-20 development and finance ministers meeting at the World Bank in Washington, D.C.
"Our agenda will focus on the Asia-Pacific region, the changes to strategic circumstances through the Asia-Pacific region and what that means for the future of the alliance," Mr. Rudd said. "In the Asia-Pacific region we have the rise of China, we also have of course in the wider region the rise of India. We also have outstanding tensions in the South China Sea and other unresolved territorial disputes across wider Asia."
Those talks will mark the anniversary of the Australia, New Zealand, U.S. Security Treaty, or the Anzus Treaty, a post-World War II pact that paved the way for the country's special forces and navy to support the U.S.-led military response against the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 attacks and later the invasion of Iraq.
Australia is reviewing a redeployment of its military to better protect strategically important areas of the country including its energy production infrastructure mostly located on its northwest coast. To counter China's military buildup, Australia has a nearly A$8 billion program under way to strengthen its navy, including construction of a fleet of air-warfare destroyers and a plan to build 12 new submarines. The resource-rich nation also plans to buy the latest generation of F-35 stealth fighters from the U.S.
"We will be discussing with the Americans on how that is best shaped for the future to underpin the strategic ability of the Asia-Pacific region," Mr. Rudd said.

It's a sorry joke to give President Obama much credit for getting Osama bin Laden because 99 percent of Americans would have made the same decision. Only if Obama were among the SEALs who actually did the job should he be praised. Also, is there anyone who doesn't think Obama would have fled to Canada if he were 19 years old in 1968 and was drafted into the military? Obama is a weak leader who presents a weak image of America.

A THORN: To Missouri State University for giving Clif Smart, the new president, a salary increase to $275,000/year from his interim pay of $180,000/year. This is a whopping 53 percent increase! In this time of salary deflation, middle-class net worth reduction and economic freefall, does this seem justifiable? Do you really think he would not take the position for a 10-20 percent raise? Why should this state employee be owed a windfall of this magnitude when the students must pay more and more each year with no guarantee of any job at all when they graduate?

Nigeria both in the past and presently has had a lot of good policies; these policies were meant to bring positive changes to our Nation. However, it has been observed that most of these policies never achieved the purpose for which they were formed. Critical analyses show that there were no foundational plans upon which the policies could anchor. Also, lack of policy monitoring team and parameters for measuring the efficacy and effectiveness of these policies made their implementation difficult.
The dearth of organized professional planning body in the country to give technical support services to the various policy implementation committees/or agencies, and continuously monitor the performances of the economy and ensure it is meeting its development goals has given birth to this child of necessity_ INSTITUTE OF PLANNING – NIGERIA.

Interview: Jordan McRae
06/08/15 9:49 am EST
If you read this site on a regular basis or for that matter have access to the ol' inter web, then you probably know that 76ers' 2014 draft day acquisition Jordan McRae played excellent basketball on two different continents this past season. First, McRae went "Down Under" and quickly became the best option on the Melbourne Tigers of Australia's National Basketball League. McRae was the NBL's second-leading scorer as he averaged 19.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per night.
After his very successful run in Australia was up, McRae came back to the States and played for the 76ers D-League affiliate, the Delaware Sevens. In 13 games with the Sevens, McRae posted 18.9 ppg. on 45% shooting from the field and 38% from deep. The highlight of McRae's brief time with the Sevens was a 39-point, 13-rebound, and 6-assist night against the Oklahoma City Blue back on March 22nd.
There's no doubt that this Sixers' prospect turned some heads with his play overseas as well as in the D-League and that he will be under strong consideration for a roster spot at training camp this fall. With McRae on the verge of becoming a key piece to the Sam Hinkie's rebuilding process, I decided to check in with the shooting guard.

I agree it can be difficult to judge by eye, particularly since the stain is proportional to silver density. It should look somewhat greenish-yellow in comparison to a non-stained FP4 negative. FP4 stains quite well in PMK.
The conventional wisdom is acidic fixers reduce stain. I always used neutral/alkaline fixer with staining developers, but never tried a side by side test with a standard acidic rapid fixer, so I don't know if this is true or not. I just went with the recommendations in The Book of Pyro.

Toyota Camry
I have a 1988 Camry, automatic transmission and I have to tap the starter to get the car to start. But this is my third starter in six months. I took the starter in and they tested it and said the starter was fine. I have also changed out the key and key ignition switch. When I turn the key there is a humming sound. No clicking. As of today the car won't start at all even when I tap the starter. I just don't know what else to fix or replace now. Can you help?

Next step is to test the NSS/Inhibitor switch and starter relay-triple check all your connections from battery to starter.
