Accounting ratio shows the relationship between two accounting figures. Ratio analysis is the process of computing and presenting the relationships between the items in the financial statement. It is an important tool of financial analysis, because it helps to study the financial performance and position of a concern. Classification of ratios based on function 1. Liquidity Ratios: show the relationship between the current assets and current liabilities of the concern. Examples are Liquid ratio and Current ratio. 2. Leverage Ratios: show the relationship between proprietor's funds and debts used in financing the assets of the concern. Examples are Capital gearing ratio, Debt-Equity ratio and Proprietary ratio. These are also known as Solvency ratios. 3. Activity Ratios (also known as Turnover ratios or Productivity ratios) show the relationship between the sales and the assets. Examples are Stock turnover ratio, Debtors turnover ratio etc. 4. Profitability ratio show the relationship between Profits and sales; for example, Operating ratio, gross profit ratio, Operating net profit ratio, Expenses ratios etc.; or Profits and investments; for example, Return Return on capital employed., Return on investments, Return on equity capital etc. 5. Coverage ratios show the relationship between the profit on one hand and the claims of outsiders (dividend, interest etc.) to be paid out of such profits. Examples are Dividend payout ratio and Debt services ratio. Profit and loss account Ratio: GROSS PROFIT RATIO Meaning This ratio compares gross profit with net sales. It is usually expressed in the form of percentage. Formula Gross profit = Gross Profit x 100 Net Sales Function/Purpose Gross profit is a profitability ratio, which shows the relationship between profits and sales. This ratio helps to judge (i) how efficient the concern is in managing its production, purchase, selling and
inventory; (ii) how good its control is over the direct costs; (iii) how productive the concern is; and (iv) how much amount is left to meet other expenses and earn net profit. OPERATING RATIO Meaning Operating ratio expresses the relationship between total operating costs and net sales. It is expressed by way of percentage . Formula Operating Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold + Operating Expenses x 100 Net Sales Function/Purpose Operating ratio indicates cost of operations. Its purpose is to measure and to ascertain the efficiency of the management as regards operations. This ratio helps to judge (i) how efficient the concern is in controlling its costs of production, administration, selling expenses; and (iv) how much amount out of sales revenue is used up in carrying out the operations of the concern. EXPENSES RATIO Meaning This ratio expresses the relationship between each item of expenditure and sales. It is expressed as a percentage. Total of all Expenses ratios will be equal to operating ratio. Formula Expense Ratio = Expenditure x 100 Net Sales e.g. Cost of goods Sold ( Factory cost) = COGS × 100 Net sales Administrative Expenses Ratio = Administrative Expenses x 100 Net Sales Finance expenses= Finance expenses *100 Net sales
Selling Expenses Ratio OPERATING PROFIT RATIO
= Selling Expenses x 100 Net Sales
Meaning Operating profit ratio indicates the relationship between Operating profit and the sales. Formula Operating Profit = Operating Profit x 100 = Net Sales Components Operating profit [OP] = 1. Gross Profit 2. Less: Operating expense [OE] Function/Purpose Operating profit ratio is a profitability ratio, which shows the relationship between profits and sales. It indicates profits from operations. This ratio helps to judge (i) how efficient the concern is in managing all its operations of production, purchase, inventory, administration, selling, distribution etc.; and (ii) how much amount is left to meet non-operating expenses and earn net profits. NET PROFIT RATIO Meaning Net profit ratio indicates the relationship between net profit and the sales. It is usually expressed in the form of a percentage. Net Profit = Balance Sheet Ratio CURRENT RATIO Meaning This ratio compares the current assets with the current liabilities. It is expressed in the form of a pure ratio e.g. 2:1 Formula Net Profit x 100 Net Sales
Current Ratio = Current Assets = Current Liabilities Function/Purpose
Current ratio is a liquidity/solvency ratio which indicates the ability of the concern to meet its short-term liabilities. It measures the short term solvency of the concern. It is used by a creditor to judge the safely margin available and to decide the amount and the terms of the credit. The standard ratio is 2: 1. LIQUID RATIO Meaning Liquid ratio compares the quick assets with the quick liabilities. It is measures the immediate solvency position of the company. It is also known as Quick ratio or Acid test ratio. Formula Liquid ratio = Quick Assets Quick Liabilities = QA QL
Note: QA=Current Assets less Closing Stock less Prepayment QL=Current Liabilities less Bank Overdraft less income received in advance Note 1: Stock is excluded cash. Note 2: Bank overdraft is excluded because it is almost with bank and not required to be paid back is full as long as the concern exists. because it is uncertain as to when and how much it will realize. Prepayment (pre-paid expenses, advances etc) are excluded because they cannot be converted into
STOCK TO WORKING CAPITAL RATIO Meaning Formula: Stock Working capital *100
This ratio shows the relationship between the closing stock and the working capital. It helps to judge the quantum of inventories in relation to the working capital of the business. It is expressed as a percentage. It is also known as Inventory Working Capital Ratio. If the stock to working capital is 70%. It means 70% of the working capital is blocked in assets and 30% is blocked in other current assets. PROPRIETORY RATIO Meaning Proprietory ratio compares proprietor's funds with total assets. It is usually expressed in the form of percentage. Formula Proprietory Ratio = Proprietors' Funds or Shareholder's Equity Total Assets Components Proprietor's Funds [PF] will include 1. Paid up Equity capital (EC) 2. Reserves & Surplus (RS) including capital reserves, revenue reserves, P & L a/c Cr. Balance. Less: Accumulated losses (i.e. P & L a/c Dr. Balance) Less: Fictitious Assets like Miscellaneous Expenditure not written off. 3. Paid up Preference Capital (PC) Thus, PF = EC + RS + PC –Misc Exp Function/Purpose Proprietory ratio is a solvency ratio which indicates (i) the long term solvency; and (ii) the extent of funds invested by the owners in relation to total funds employed in the business (i.e. capitalization). DEBT – EQUITY RATIO Meaning This ratio compares the long-term debt with shareholders' funds. It is usually expressed as a pure ratio. X 100 = PF X 100 TA
Formula Debt = Borrowed Funds = BF Equity Proprietors' Funds PF Purpose/Function Debt –equity ratio is a solvency ratio which indicates the proportion of debt and equity in financing of the assets of the concern. Debt-equity ratio shows the (i) margin of safety for long term creditors; and (ii) the balance between debt and equity (i.e. capitalization). If the debt equity ratio is 2.5: 1, it indicates that for every 2.5 obtained from debt, the company has obtained Re 1 from the shareholder CAPITAL GEARING RATIO Meaning The Capital Gearing ratio shows the relationship between two types of capital viz (i) Funds not bearing fixed rate of interest and dividend- Equity capital including reserves less fictitious asset . and (ii) . Funds and dividend bearing fixed rate of interest Preference capital and Long Term Borrowing. This is also known as 'Capital Structure ratio'. When the ratio is more than 1, the company is said to highly geared and when the ratio is less than 1 the company lowly geared. Formula= Funds bearing fixed rate of interest and dividend Funds not bearing fixed rate of interest and dividend Preference Share capital + Debenture + Long term Bank loan + Public deposit Equity share capital + Reserves and Surplus – Misc expenditure Combined Ratio: RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED Meaning This ratio measures the relationship between net profit (before interest and tax) and the capital employed to earn it. It is expressed as a percentage . This ratio is also known as 'Return on Investment' [ROI] Formula Return on Capital Employed = Profit (before Interest, Tax) x 100
Capital Employed Components Profit (before Interest, Tax) [PBIT] = 1. Profit before interest on long term borrowing tax & dividends. 2. Less abnormal, non-recurring items. Capital Employed (CE) = 1 Equity capital 2. Add. Preference capital + Reserves & Surplus 3. Add. Long term Borrowings (Terms loans + Debentures) 4. Less : Fictitious assets like Miscellaneous Expenses not written off 5. Less : Profit & loss A/c. Dr. Balance (loss). Note : Capital employed may be taken to mean Assets Employed, in which case, Capital Employed [CE] can also be computed as 1. Fixed Assets (Less depreciation) ( including investments) 2. Add : Current Assets 3. Less : Current Liabilities 4. Exclude Fictitious assets. Function / Purpose Return on capital employed ratio is a profitability ratio, which shows the relationship between profits and investments. Its purpose is to measure the overall profitability from the total funds made available by the owners and lenders. This ratio helps to judge how efficient the concern is in managing the funds at its disposal. RETURN ON PROPRIETORS' FUNDS Meaning This ratio measures the relationship between net profit (after interest and tax) and the proprietors' capital. It is usually expressed as a percentage. It is also known as Return on Proprietor's Equity or Return on Net Worth Formula Return on Proprietor's Funds = Net Profit (after Tax) x Proprietor's Funds RETURN ON EQUITY SHAREHOLDER FUND Meaning This ratio measures the relationship between net profit (after interest, tax and preference dividend) and the equity shareholders funds. It is usually expressed as a percentage. 100 = NPAT x 100 PF
Formula Return on Equity Capital = Components : Equity shareholders' Funds [EF] = Equity capital [EC] Reserves and Surplus [RS] Less: Fictitious assets like Miscellaneous Expenses not written off Less: Profit& Loss A/c Dr. Balance(loss) DEBTORS TURNOVER Meaning This ratio shows the relationship between net credit sales and average trade debtors .It is expressed as a times. Actual debtors turnover ratio of 6 times indicates that debtors turnover 6 times during the year Formula Debtors Turnover = Net Credit Sales Avg Accounts Receivable + Avg Bills receivable NPAT – Prefrence dividend X 100 = Equity Shareholder's Funds
Debtors Velocity (Debt Collection Period) Debtors velocity means the period (months or days) taken by the debtors for settlement of their bills. It shows the number of days for which credit sales remain outstanding = 365 days/ 12 months Debtors Turnover Ratio Function / Purpose Debtors turnover ratio is a turnover ratio, which shows the relationship between credit sales and debtors. Its purpose is to (I) calculate the speed with which debtors get settled on an average during the year; (ii) calculate the debtors velocity to indicate the period of credit allowed to average debtor; and (iii) judge how efficiently the debtors are managed. CREDITORS TURNOVER RATIO Meaning Creditors turnover ratio shows the relationship between the net credit purchases and the average trade creditors. Actual debtors turnover ratio of 6 times indicates that debtors turnover 6 times during the year
Formula Creditors Turnover = Credit Purchases = Accounts Payable Net Credit Purchases Avg Creditors + Avg Bills Payable
Creditors Velocity (Debt Payment Period) Creditors velocity means the period (months or days) taken by the concern to pay off its creditors. Credit Period Enjoyed = 365 days or 12 months Creditors Turnover Function / Purpose Creditors turnover ratio is a turnover ratio, which shows the relationship between credit purchases and creditors. Its purpose is to (i) calculate the speed with which creditors are paid off on an average during the year; (ii) calculate the creditors velocity to indicate he period taken by the average creditor to be paid off; and (iii) judge how efficiently the creditors are managed. STOCK TURNOVER RATIO Stock turnover ratio shows the relationship between the cost of goods sold and the average stock. This ratio is normally expressed as a 'rate' Formula A. Stock Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold Average Stock
Function/ Purpose Stock turnover ratio is an activity ratio, which shows the relationship between sales and stock. Its purpose is to (i) calculate the speed at which stock is being turned over into sales; (ii) calculate the stock velocity to indicate he period taken by the average stock to be sold out; and (iii) judge how efficiently the stocks are managed and utilized to generate sales. Actual Ratio For example, a Stock turnover ratio of 8, indicates that the stock is being turned into sales 8 times during the year. The Inventory cycle makes 8 rounds during the year. It also helps to work out the Stock Holding Period (stock velocity). If the Stock turnover is 8 times, the Stock Holding Period is 1.5 months (12 months / Stock turnover ratio = 12 / 8). This indicates that it takes 1.5 months for the stock to be sold out. Stock velocity shows the duration of the inventory cycle.
Interest Coverage Ratio:
This ratio indicates sufficiency or deficiency of earnings to pay interest falling due within the period covered under profits. Interest coverage Ratio= NPBIT Interest DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO Note : Debt Service Coverage Ratio (which deals with the capacity to pay interest as well as loan installment) is different from Debt Service Ratio Meaning Debt Service Coverage Ratio shows the relationship between net profits and interest + installments payable on loans. It is expressed as a pure number. Debt Service means the payment of interest + installments on loans. Coverage means the availability of profits for debt servicing. Formula Debt Service Coverage Ratio = Net profit + Depreciation + Interest on Term loan Interest + Installment due on loans Function / Purpose Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is a type of coverage ratio. A coverage ratio shows the relationship between the profit and the claims of outsiders to be paid out of such profits. The purpose of DSCR is to measure the debt-servicing capacity of the company. DIVIDEND PAYOUT RATIO Meaning Dividend Payout Ratio shows the relationship between the dividend paid to equity shareholders out of the profits available to the equity shareholders. It shows how much percentage of earnings are given as dividend Formula Dividend payout ratio = Dividend per share Earning per share x 100
EARNING PER SHARE: EPS= NPAT- Preference dividend No of Equity shares
Earning per share is most widely used financial data. Higher the ratio indicates that the company may pay dividend at a higher rate. It shows how much percentage of earnings are given as dividend Price –Earning ratio (P/E ratio) : This ratio is the market price of shares expressed as multiple of Earning per share: P/E ratio: Market price per share Earnings per share This ratio indicates the market price is how many times as the earning, A higher P/E ratio is good. Investor should invest in the company having low P/E ratio Dividend yield ratio Market price per share Earning per share It means the dividend is how percentage of market price per share ADVANTAGES OF RATIO ANALYSIS Advantages :
Useful in analysis of financial statements. Ratio analysis is the most important tool available for analysing the financial statements i.e. Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet. Such analysis is made not only by the management but also by outside parties like bankers, creditors, investors etc. Useful in improving future performance. Ratio analysis indicates the weak spots of the business. This helps management in overcoming such weaknesses and improving the overall performance of the business in future. Useful in inter-firm comparison. Comparison of the performance of one firm with another can be made only when absolute data is converted into comparable ratios. If A firm is earning a net profit of Rs. 50,000 while another firm B is earning Rs. 1.00,000, it does not necessarily mean that firm B is better off unless this profit figure is converted into a ratio and then compared. Useful in judging the efficiency of a business. As stated earlier, accounting ratios help in judging the efficiency of a business. Liquidity, solvency, profitability etc. of a business can be easily evaluated with the help of various accounting ratios like current ratio, liquid ratio, debtequity ratio, net profit ratio, etc. Such an evaluation enables the management to judge the operating efficiency of the various aspects of the business. Useful in simplifying accounting figures. Complex accounting data presented in Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet is simplified,
summarised and systematised with the help of ratio analysis so as to make it easily understandable. For example, gross profit ratio, net profit ratio, operating ratio etc. give a more easily understandable picture of the profitability of a business than the Absolute figures.
Limitations of Ratio Analysis Ratio analysis is a very useful technique. But one should be aware of its limitations as well. The following limitations should be kept in mind white making use of ratio analysis in interpreting the financial statements. 1. Reliability of ratios depends upon the correctness of the basic data. Ratios obviously will be only as reliable as the basic data on which they are based. If the balance sheet or profit and loss account figures are themselves unreliable, it will be a mistake to put any reliance on the ratios worked out on the basis of that Balance Sheet or Profit and Loss Account. 1. An individual ratio may by itself be meaningless. Except in a few cases, an accounting ratio may by itself be meaningless and acquires significance only when compared with relevant ratios of other firms or of the previous years. In fact, ratios yield their best advantage on comparison with other similar firms; also if ratios for a year are compared with ratios in the previous years, it will be a useful exercise. Comparison is the essential requirement for using ratios for interpreting a given situation in a firm or industry. 2. Ratios are not always comparable. When the ratios of two firms are being compared, it should be remembered that different firms may follow different accounting practices. For example, one firm may charge depreciation on straight line basis and the other on diminishing value. Similarly, different firms may adopt different methods of stock valuation. Such differences will not make some of the accounting ratios strictly comparable. However, use of accounting standards makes ratio comparable. 1. Ratios sometimes give a misleading picture. One company produces 500 units in one year and 1,000 units the next year; the progress is 100%. Another firm produces 4,000 units in one year and 5,000 in the next year, the progress is 25%. The second firm will appear to be less active than the first firm, if only the rate of increase or ratio is compared. It will be much more useful if absolute figures are also compared along with rate of increase—unless the firms being compared are equal in all respects. In fact, one should be extremely careful while comparing the results of one firm with those of another firm if the two figures differ in any significant manner, say in size, location, degree of automation or mechanisation. 2. Ratios ignore qualitative factors. Ratios are as a matter of fact, tools of quantitative analysis. It ignores qualitative factors which sometimes are equally or rather more important than the quantitative factors. As a result of this, conclusions from ratio analysis may be distorted. For example, despite the fact that credit may be granted to a customer on the basis of information regarding the financial position of business as disclosed by
certain ratios, but the grant of credit ultimately depends upon the credit standing, reputation and managerial ability of the customer, which cannot be expressed in the form of ratios. 3. Change in price levels makes ratio analysis ineffective. Changes in price levels often make comparison of figures for a number of years difficult. For example, the ratio of sales to fixed assets in 2003 would be much higher than in 1995 due to rising prices because fixed assets are stilt being expressed on the basis of cost incurred a number of years ago while sates are being expressed at their current prices. 2. There is no single standard for comparison. Ratios of a company have meaning only when they are compared with some standard ratios. Circumstances differ from firm to firm and the nature of each industry is different. Therefore, the standards will differ for each industry and the circumstances of each firm will have to be kept in mind. It is difficult to find out a proper basis of comparison. Therefore, the performance of one industry may not be properly comparable with that of another. Usually it is recommended that ratios should be compared with the average of the industry. But the industry averages are not easily available.
3. Ratios based on past financial statements are no indicators of future. Accounting ratios are calculated on the basis of financial statements of past years. Ratios thus indicate what has happened in the past. Since past is quite different from what is likely to happen in future, it is difficult to use ratios for forecasting purposes. The financial analyst is more interested in what will happen in future. The management of a company has information about the company's future plans and, policies and is, therefore, able to predict future to a certain extent. But an outsider analyst has to rely only on the past ratios which may not necessarily reflect the firms future financial position and performance.

The former University of California police officer, who gained international notoriety for pepper spraying student protesters almost two years ago, is back in the news: Today, the university said it would pay John Pike $38,059 in workers' compensation.
Pike claimed that the death threats that followed the incident caused him depression and anxiety.
The Davis Enterprise reports that an independent psychiatrist said he had a "moderate" disability.
The Enterprise adds:
"Administrative Law Judge Harter approved the settlement agreement between Pike and the University of California on Oct. 16.
'This case has been resolved in accordance with state law and processes on workers' compensation,' UC Davis spokesman Andy Fell said in an email message. Sacramento attorney Jason Marcus, who represented Pike, declined to comment on Wednesday.
"Bernie Goldsmith, a Davis lawyer supportive of the protesters, said that the settlement 'sends a clear message to the next officer nervously facing off with a group of passive, unarmed students: Go on ahead. Brutalize them. Trample their rights. You will be well taken care of.'"
If you don't remember, video of the incident went viral back in November of 2011. It came at the height of the Occupy Wall Street movement and it shows Pike methodically dousing peaceful protesters with pepper spray.
Pike eventually left the university and never faced criminal charges.
The university agreed to pay $1 million to settle a lawsuit filed by the protesters.
Doing the math, The Atlantic notes that Pike will get a little more than each of the 21 protesters got in their settlement.

Prayers for you EC those booms you are hearing could be large methane releases or earthquake booms please take care.
Earthquake Booms, 'Seneca Guns', and Other Sounds - Earthquake "booms" have been reported for a long time, and in the US they tend to occur more in the Northeastern US and along the East Coast. There have been many reports of "booms" that cannot be explained by man-made sources. No one knows for sure, but scientists speculate that these "booms" are probably small shallow earthquakes that are too small to be recorded, but large enough to be felt by people nearby. In New Madrid, Missouri, there are accounts of "artillery-like" sounds that were said to have occurred before or during the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-1812. [Mystery booms coming from deep in the plate boundary were reported in Indonesia for many months before the December 2004 quake and tsunami.]

St. Charles Health System is facing a $9 million budget shortfall, and has had to trim staff and impose a hiring freeze. Spokesperson Lisa Goodman says last week they laid off three workers last week and put the hiring freeze in place. Still, she painted a worrisome fiscal picture. Goodman says "To date, St. Charles Health System is behind budget for the year by about $9 million." The shortfall is mostly due to increases in the number of patients on the Oregon Health Plan who are seeking services and decreases in the reimbursements they receive from the state for treating those patients.

Both are right. He's personally against abortion but is not for legislation against it.
Trump didn't send anyone over to push those rights when they were hashing out the Republican party platform this week. So the platform is even more anti-LGBT than last convention despite their "leader" supposedly being pro LGBT. So either Trump is somewhat apathetic about the whole thing or more likely he's just clueless about how political parties operate and didn't know it was part of his responsibility. Which makes me wonder how he'd actually run a country if he's messing up the simple stuff.
It's not Trump's strong point either.
It's easy to get cheap labor. What's hard is getting good labor. If you've got an important project then it helps to have good people on it instead of going about it half assed with the cheapest bodies you can get. Though if it's just rote IT grunt work web application touch up then go for it. But if you need quality work done you need quality workers.
I do see lots of older contract workers in Silicon Valley. Often it's just their choice, they can get more money that way (especially if a spouse has a family health insurance plan), it's flexible, etc. It's probably easier to get hired that way, and I've never seen a contractor being formally interviewed, sometimes you don't even see them ever walk in the door or talk with the project members. I wouldn't do it myself, I can barely keep track of my finances as it is much less have to deal with the extra burden of being my own HR and I like having weekends free.
The thing with healthcare is that some level of care gets provided whether the patient can pay or not. So that raises costs overall. Also not getting healthcare makes other people less healthy. Opting out of the system screws it up for everone else. A reform was needed, we got one though it had flaws, and yet people complain about being required to pay for insurance. But America is still in a individualist oriented mindset, as in it's all about me and everyone else can go screw themselves.
Yes the two party system is screwed up. But it wasn't designed to be that way, it just happened due to the nature of the rules set up and the environment it takes place in. Winner takes all, lack of communication, complexity of understanding the issues, etc. So where other countries might have a coalition that takes place after a general election, we have coalitions that are formed during the primary elections which naturally end up being dominated by extremists and true believers in their party and not by moderate voices.
And Trump doesn't really run businesses, he mostly invests in them, lends his name, etc. How the country will be run if he's president is a complete unknown at the moment because it all will depend upon who he gets in the cabinet, the people who might actually know how to run things (if we're lucky). With Hillary everyone has a pretty good idea of what names might be in the cabinet and actually deciding policy, and we know if we like or dislike them, but with Trump everything is a huge unknown (huuuuuge).
It'll be huuuuge! And luxurious. Just like Atlantic City.
This is an intrusion into the free market!!
Hippocracy? Doesn't that mean a government run by horses?
They're in the equivalent of the industrial revolution, using lots and lots of unskilled labor migrating off of farms into cities to do menial and dangerous jobs. The robots will replace some of them but not all of them. We're also in an era very different from the industrial revolution where lots of manufacturing can not be done by humans as the parts are too small to work with and the tolerances too demanding.
You're supposed to cheer and chant, not listen and think.
Well the summary makes no clarification on what "Pascal based" actually means. Is it a new processor, fab process, developer methodology, or was it just manufactured under high atmospheric pressure? Turns out it's an architecture only used at Nvidia - in other words it's a marketing name which is utterly meaningless.
You really only need the dry storage. Bread is very good at this as long as it's dry weather and you kept the mold off while it still had moisture. Meat is more difficult to get to last but the same principle applies.
Beware the long finger of the law!
I don't think that by itself that doing the equivalent of money laundering is illegal. It's only when it's done to help mask a crime or avoid taxes that it becomes criminal. Though rules will certainly vary country to country. However almost no one goes to all the trouble of laundering money when there's not a crime involved because it's not free.
In the realm of scientific observation, luck is granted only to those who are prepared. - Louis Pasteur

New Beginning or False Dawn? The Evolution and Nature of the European Company Statute
Abstract:The European Company Statute, which was eventually adopted by the European Union (EU) in 2001, is one of a series of measures proposed by the Commission in an attempt to harmonise company legislation across the EU Member States. Since 1968, when the first company law harmonisation directive was adopted (on disclosure requirements), the process has covered a wide variety of areas including domestic and cross-border mergers, group accounting procedures, the qualifications of statutory auditors and the rights of minority shareholders, amongst others. By 2001, some twelve such directives had come into force, together providing a firm basis for the integration of the legislation governing European corporate practice.
These legal initiatives have been underpinned by the emergence of the Eurocompany, the product of 'pan-European approaches to industrial relations and employment matters' (Marginson, 2000: 21). Managements in multinational companies have responded to the deepening processes of European economic, political and social integration by organising production, sales, marketing, human resources and other functions on a European scale. These processes have been accompanied by common policies on equal opportunities, training and remuneration, as well as by a whole range of performance control systems involving benchmarking and productivity indicators (Marginson and Sisson, 2006: chap. 8). The development of European works councils has been only the most visible aspect in the evolution of the Eurocompany (Gold, 2003).
However, until now, the Eurocompany – as a term used by researchers, rather than by employers – has remained a theoretical construct, a phenomenon created by employer responses to regional integration and by piecemeal Commission measures on company law harmonisation. Indeed, many commentators insist on the enduring influence of national institutions and legal frameworks on forms of corporate governance and industrial relations, and refer to 'varieties of capitalism' (Amable, 2003; Whitley, 1999). They point out that many features of the domestic business environment – such as forms of owner control, sectoral integration, collaboration between competitors and trust shown towards workers – remain very resilient to processes of convergence resulting from European integration. The question, then, is the extent to which multinational companies manage to transcend these national frameworks to occupy a genuinely European 'space'. The European Company Statute (ECS) has now, arguably, created the legal foundation for such a space because it is intended to simplify the range of different regulations otherwise applicable to companies in each Member State, reduce administration and legal costs, and promote economies of scale. Furthermore, European companies should be able to restructure themselves more easily across borders as they can relocate their registered offices without being restricted by national bureaucracies.

How To Dye Yarn with Food Coloring
Posted byon
Dyeing is a fabulous way to enjoy the fiber experience. Why dye our fiber when we can buy it in ready made hues and melanges of color that we are passionate about? I have several reasons for jumping in with food color dyeing that I want to share with you. This mostly is about keeping it simple and having fun!
Why Dye?
1. I love the process involved in creating. I feel that I have peeled back another layer in fiber use with learning to dye fiber myself.
2. In the dyeing process, it makes me more akin with the fiber as I am "hands-on" feeling the fiber, considering the color potential, and determining what the project path might be. It is just another way for me to feel in love with what I am dreaming of!
3. I am a color junkie and how cool is it to take a plain piece of fiber and experiment with color. Do you want it light? Dark? Should more than one color choice be combined? I tend to get caught in the hues from very pastel to deeply, darkly rich and all the variances in between.
4. Beginners take note! Mistakes look exceptionally nice in home brewed yarns. There is no need to fret over a random piece that is mish-mashed in shades...you will learn to love this uniqueness and find joy in knowing that your colorway is a one and only!
5. This can be an exceptionally fun way to teach children about the joy of dyeing and the endless color options. Remember that you won't be making anything the same day you dye so this may need to be a several day project. For now, share the joy of color and experimentation.
6. Once you have the supplies which are easy to round up, diving in is soooo easy, too(well, not literally)!
Here is the "how to" of dyeing fiber using food coloring, a great place to play with color
Food coloring is non-toxic so it is a gentle product for dyeing wool, alpaca and silk. You must use "protein fibers" and this DIY page explains what protein fibers . Some people prefer to keep their tools for dyeing separate from other supplies. I consider the supplies and process to be like a recipe so while my "recipe" suggests how I dye with food coloring, you are welcome to change the recipe!
Supplies: White vinegar,large aluminum pot, large spoon for stirring in pot, rubber gloves unless you are okay with dyed skin!, apron or whatever you want for your young helpers, a second pot for carrying the wet fiber, fiber (only protein fibers will work) for dyeing. Easy so far, right? Here are a few options for protein fibers we have at Darn Good Yarn:
Darn Good Yarn's Thick and Thin Wool Darn Good Yarn's Undyed Yarn Collection
Life is a Math problem...
and enjoy it! With the large aluminum pan, you will soak your fiber in a solution of 1/4 cup of white vinegar for every 1 quart of water. Soak this for at least 30 minutes in your aluminum pot. (This helps the dyeing process by changing the ph of your yarn). After the yarn has soaked, I put just the yarn in a second pot and set it aside to rest. Save the brew of water and vinegar.
The aluminum pot of water and vinegar is now put on the stove and brought to a simmer. Guesstimate how many drops of food coloring to add to the pot. You will have to play with this and may want to keep a count of drops used for future reference in dyeing. You will need more drops than for food and the more food coloring you use, the darker the dye batch. Stir well! Carefully do a test with a piece of the fiber or a scrap.
Dying to Dye
Okay! You have your dye color in one pot, the fiber "resting" in another pot. Turn the fiber into the dye pot carefully, this is warm/hot dye after all! Stir again. Let this cook/simmer until the fiber has absorbed the dye or you have a color that you are happy with. You may want to make this a deeper shade as the yarn will lose some color when you rinse it.
When satisfied with the color, turn off the heat of the dyeing fiber and allow to sit until the dye solution and fiber is room temperature. Then gently rinse excess dye from fiber. Hang to dry. But how, you ask?
With patience! I haven't found an easy solution for drying long hunks of fiber but in the winter I usually get out my drying rack, wrap the yarn on the rack and put it over a heat vent or near the wood stove. Some people wrap the yarn around the back of a chair. In the summer I lay it on my deck in the shade! Just remember this part takes time and the yarn needs to be dry before winding into a ball.
Looking for more information? I suggest reading this Instuctables.com idea about dyeing if you are looking for more introductory information on dyeing. Visit our Darn Good Yarn website to find inspiration in full color!
Fear not the dye pot! Celebrate the joy of playing with color!

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/06/12 -- Sitecore, a leading web content management and customer experience management software company, today announced availability of a new version of its Content Management System software (CMS).
Sitecore CMS 6.6 offers enhanced mobile support to build engaging mobile web interactions and applications, advanced targeting and segmentation of customers, and a premier development environment with native Model View Controller (MVC) support. These new features provide greater flexibility to quickly create personalized customer experiences.
"The latest version of our software provides the tools that developers and marketers require to consistently and continuously engage with customers through any interaction channel," said Darren Guarnaccia, senior vice president, product marketing, Sitecore. "We have enabled our developer community to work with the latest development technologies while offering marketers enhanced ways to use customer behavior data to better segment and target marketing campaigns. The result for businesses is a consistent, engaging customer experience that helps create customers for life."
Catering to the Small Screen
According to a February 2012 Forrester Research, Inc., blog entitled "Mobile Internet Users Will Soon Surpass PC Internet Users Globally," more than half of the world's population owns at least one mobile device and the global penetration of mobile Internet users will exceed that of PC-based Internet users in 2016.
Businesses need a way to understand how website and marketing campaign content and offers will appear on the multitude of devices in use including iPhone, Android and Windows smartphones. Sitecore's device simulator shows marketers how content will appear on mobile devices and in different browsers. It provides an accurate view, via screenshots, on how the website will display using the browsers and devices selected.
In addition, Sitecore mobile software developer's kit (SDK) facilitates the development of native mobile applications and supports Apple's iOS platform. The embedded browser allows marketers to leverage their Sitecore powered content, while tapping the powerful user experience of native mobile applications.
Premier Development Approach
Sitecore now offers native support for ASP.NET MVC to complement its existing support for web forms based architectures. By natively supporting both in its platform and allowing use interchangeably, customers have the flexibility to use the right approach for any task while achieving all the modern development benefits of using MVC design patterns.
ASP.NET MVC includes many features that enable fast development for creating sophisticated applications that use the latest web standards and Sitecore customers can start to incorporate these new capabilities without extensive site redevelopment or migration.
Advanced Targeting for Multichannel Campaigns
Marketers are often challenged with targeting campaigns to segments of their audience for better engagement. With CMS 6.6 marketers can create a list of visitors that match certain criteria by defining one or more conditions to define a segment. Segments allow for dynamic evaluation rather than having a static list of visitors, and can be built from both demographic and behavioral data. Segments can also be built from both demographic information as well as behavioral data. Marketers do not need to be CRM experts to target campaigns to specific audiences and segments can be built on any of the web, email or CRM details that have taken place.
Follow @Sitecore on Twitter to join the conversation.
About Sitecore
Sitecore is a global software company that creates products to deliver the most relevant experience and content to customers at any moment of interaction and via any communications channel -- the web, email, mobile, social and offline. Our customer experience management platform combines proven web content management with customer intelligence to create a single view of a customer that drives meaningful interactions, increases conversions and builds lifetime customers.

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Jordan Belfort net worth: Jordan Belfort is an American author and motivational speaker who has a net worth of -$100 million dollars. Jordan Belfort was born in The Bronx, New York on July 9, 1962. He is probably most famous for being the founder of the financial brokerage firm, Stratton Oakmont. The firm became quite successful in the 90s, and at one point, employed over 1000 brokers and handled approximately $1 billion in assets. Jordan Belfort was known for partaking in a heavy-spending, hard-partying lifestyle. This included purchasing a yacht formerly owned by Coco Chanel. The yacht subsequently sank off the coast of Italy, after Mr. Belfort insisted on sailing it in high winds. Unfortunately, the good times did not last at Stratton Oakmont. The firm was essentially operating a boiler-room style pump and dump scheme that defrauded many clients out of vast sums of money. Jordan Belfort was indicted for money laundering and fraud in 1998. He was convicted of securities fraud and money laundering and would go on to spend almost two years in jail. He also had to pay clients back nearly $100 million of the $200 million that he stole from them. He has since written two bestselling memoirs and currently works as a motivational speaker. His life story was turned into a movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill. Martin Scorcese directed the project. As per the terms of his conviction, Jordan Belfort is required to pay $110 million in restitution to more than 1500 defrauded clients. To date he has only paid back $11.6 million worth of restitution. The majority of those funds came from the sale of various properties Mr. Belfort had acquired during his high flying Wall Street pump and dump days.

I made the above photo with my iPhone 4.0. It was something I see every day. In the morning, the light streams through my kitchen window. The tree just outside casts a shadow I find both interesting and peaceful, so I used my iPhone to make this image.
I love the fact that the iPhone is always nearby. There's no case to open, no memory card to worry about, no focusing – just push a button a record a moment. For me it means more photos.
But there are a few things you can do to improve on the quality of your cell phone photos. It all starts with treating your phone camera like a REAL camera. What do I mean by that? I mean show it some respect.
In the photo above, I waited on the light – just like I would do with a "real" camera. I spent time thinking about composition, I cleaned my lens, I used two hands to hold the camera steady and further steadied the shot by putting my elbows on my mini-bar. I got close, paid attention to framing, selected an angle that worked, etc.
In other words, even though it was quicker and easier than breaking out the D7000 or the Leica M9, I treated the iPhone camera like a real camera when it comes to the photography.
Give it a try. Take your time. Treat your cell phone camera like a real camera and marvel at the pictures you can make.

A's outbid Angels for Beltre
According to MLBTR, Angels offer to Beltre was the lowest of 3 offers. The ATHLETICS out bid the Halos.... THE ATHLETICS!
The Athletics.
Now, the A's bid reportedly bid six/$76 while the Angels bid 5/$70, so the A's had more guaranteed money but the annual value was less. And it's possible the sixth year was a vesting year or an option, like the Rangers' offer, and so they didn't actually even offer more guaranteed money. Still, it's like Scott Boras says: Offers are like curtains. Sometimes you get the wrong size and then they look dumb.
UPDATE: Bill quotes Tony Reagins on the Angels/A's/Rangers offers: "All I'll say is I don't think it's been reported accurately."
