April 30, 2008
Rajeev Jayaswal & Nidhi Nath Srinivas , TNN
NEW DELHI: Though the committee he chaired is non-committal on what to do about futures trading, Prof Abhijit Sen himself believes the country should continue the ban on wheat, rice, urad and tur futures. He has also suggested a dekko at sugar and edible oils futures trading to assess whether or not they are providing any real benefit to industry players. "The best course of action would be to identify the commodities where there is a possibility of futures trading affecting...

Some states will suffer a rude shock because of change in funding pattern: Abhijit Sen
February 25, 2015
Yogima Seth , ET Bureau
The BJP-led NDA government has accepted the recommendation of the 14th Finance Commission for devolution of 42% of Central taxes to states, compared with a 32% share previously. This, however, may not go well with economically weaker states, which depend heavily on the Centre to implement social sector schemes, for which allocations may be cut, says Abhijit Sen , a member of the commission. Sen, a member of the erstwhile ...
Futures panel on commodities delayed
July 26, 2007
NEW DELHI: The Abhijit Sen committee, set up by the Centre to establish impact of futures trading on essential food items, may miss the deadline for submitting its report for the second time. "We may have to seek extension once again as the report is yet to be finalised," a member of the committee said on the condition of anonymity. He said two of the committee's five members are likely to submit their study reports only by Thursday, making it difficult to compile all the documents by August 2 ?

'Storage reforms are key to grain futures'
December 22, 2003
Prabha Jagannathan , TNN
NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Vajpayee may have flagged off futures trading in wheat and rice ? banned thus far ? with great fanfare and trumpeting last Sunday, but agro economists aren't exactly doing a jig with joy for the impending revolution in food management and economy. Not right now, at least. The man who orchestrated the 'Long-Term Foodgrain Policy' for the food ministry, Abhijit Sen, is categoric that it isn't going to work merely as a symbolic move, although it is an...

Futures trading not the culprit for rise in commodity prices: Panel
February 25, 2008
NEW DELHI: The Abhijit Sen committee, looking into the impact of forward trading on farm commodity prices, has found "no conclusive evidence" to prove that the price rise in essential commodities was caused by futures trading. "However, there is a strong co-relation between these two (futures trading and prices)," the committee pointed out in its report, sources said. The committee held its meeting on Saturday to finalise the report, which is expected to...

Planning Commission member Abhijit Sen questions relevance of Minority Affairs Ministry

NEW DELHI: The UPA government claims it to be one of its signature achievements, but noted academic and Planning Commission member Abhijit Sen has all but questioned its relevance and, therefore, its existence.

Sen panel set to meet deadline, may skirt direct answers
August 22, 2007
Prabha Jagannathan , TNN
NEW DELHI: There could be more than a touch of irony in the timing of the report on forward trade, which is likely to end up making a case for lifting the ban on futures trade on dal and wheat. Even as the government fields opposition from the Left on the nuke deal, the expert committee chaired by Abhijit Sen, set to submit its recommendations by month end, could just add some more fuel to the Left fury. There are indications that it may skirt any direct references...

Don't think Food Bill will be passed this session: Planning Commission member Abhijit Sen

Yogima Seth & Madhvi Sally , ET Bureau
The huge delay in bringing the Food Security Bill to Parliament and the massive opposition to it have seen most states going ahead with key provisions of the proposed Bill, Planning Commission member Abhijit Sen tells ET. Sen has doubts whether the bill would be passed in the Monsoon Session of Parliament. Edited excerpts: Do you think Food Security Bill would be passed in the Monsoon Session?

Lessons from Vietnam: no quick fix to being 'gender friendly'
Integrating GEM, or the Gender Evaluation Methodology, in the women's health context, can be a daunting task and there are no quick answers to gender issues in their contexts. But tools like GEM could help one immediately know if their projects are "gender friendly", suggests the experience of a mini-workshop held recently in Vietnam.

In Brazil, a threat to the telecentres turns into an opportunity... for improvement
When an intiative in Brazil to promote community telecentres was endangered, the threat was turned into an opportunity. Free Software tools were re-engineered in a way that they became more powerful and useful. Telecenters that are part of a telecentre-network can use the new system to allow roaming accounts between telecenters. So, a user can create an account on a telecenter in one city and go to other city and login with his original account, without having to make another profile for him on the new telecenter.

This included Women geeks from Brazil, Indian techies keen to enlarge their tech skills or see how IT can become relevant to the lives of this country of one billion with a large poverty sector, those keen to plug in its benefits to the world of education, mega-corporations and governments throwing in sponsorship dollars and rupees…

Manipulation, corporate-style?
Groklaw, the web site, created and edited by Pamela "PJ" Jones, begun as an experiment in applying Open Source principles to legal research, is reporting the manipulation in Austria of the process that led to the WSIS.
Georg C. F. Greve of the Free Software Foundation Europe explains the entire issue in The Complete Story of the Vienna Conclusions and writes:
During the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) in Tunis, one of my trips brought me to the Austrian booth in order to pick up some copies of the Vienna Conclusions to spread and advertise. When flipping through the text, I was quite shocked to find references to Free Software removed and a pro-DRM statement inserted in the findings of the "Digital Rights/Creative Commons" workshop ("To ensure ongoing innovation, Digital Rights Management (DRM) development and deployment must remain voluntary and market-driven."). Also, references to the cultural and social significance of software as "digital cultural technique" were watered down.
News and views... from the 'developing' world

The ACS INC company sent an email demanding payment of a loan I never took out. It is another version of a . similar scam where they claim you owe money on a fast cash type of loan. Do not respond to them by phone or email. Nothing happens. Read the original letter and it is easy to determine that it is not a legitimate company. They suck people in that are worried they will be taken to court. You wiill not be taken to court. THey try to convince people that they will come after you. It is not an attorney. I traced it back. They used the name of an attorney in Texas who I called and he knew nothing about this, it was not him. They stole his name. Relax and calm down. Just ignore them knowing that you did nothing wrong and you can sleep well.

Issued December 18, 2002
¶ 1 Issue: May a lawyer review pleadings prepared by a non-lawyer mediator for simple, uncontested divorces and advise the mediator on how to modify the pleadings for filing in court?
¶ 2 Conclusion: (1) As lawyer for the mediator, a lawyer may advise the mediator on the issues likely to arise in the course of the mediation, but may not advise the mediator how to prepare the divorce agreement and court pleadings for particular parties who are clients of the mediator. This would constitute assisting in the unauthorized practice of law and would violate Utah Rules of Professional Conduct 5.5. (2) An attorney may provide representation to a party engaged in a divorce mediation that is limited to advising the party and assisting with pleadings, but may not so limit the representation without first fully informing the party of the proposed limitation and obtaining the party's informed consent.
¶ 3 Background: A divorce mediator has requested that a lawyer perform a limited service: review pleadings prepared by the mediator and amend them as needed. Prior to the attorney's involvement, the mediator would meet with the divorcing parties and assist them in reaching a settlement of all issues in their divorce. Then, the mediator would draft the parties' agreement, which would be filed with the court or incorporated into the judgment of the court. Finally, the mediator would draft the various additional court documents (e.g., complaint, findings of fact and conclusions of law, judgment) needed for the parties' divorce. The mediator would inform the divorcing parties that the pleadings were not prepared by an attorney, but had been reviewed by an attorney for "sufficiency." The divorcing parties would pay the attorney a small fee for this service.
¶ 4 Analysis: The request raises the following issues:
* Whether the lawyer is representing the mediator or the divorcing parties.
* Whether this plan involves the lawyer's assisting in the unauthorized practice of law in violation of Utah Rules of Professional Conduct 5.5.
* Whether this plan constitutes an appropriate limitation on the lawyer's representation for the client under Utah Rules of Professional Conduct 1.2 and 1.1.
A. Whether the lawyer is representing the mediator or the divorcing parties.
¶ 5 The original request appears to presume that the lawyer is advising the mediator. However, the advice sought from the Committee focuses on the agreement and pleadings for a divorce between two particular parties. Here, we consider the ethical constraints on both possible relationships.
B. Whether the lawyer, in advising the mediator, is assisting in the authorized practice of law.
¶ 6 Rule 5.5 provides that a lawyer shall not "assist any person in . . . the unauthorized practice of law." However, the Comments to Rule 5.5 state that the rule "does not prohibit lawyers from providing professional advice and instruction to nonlawyers whose employment requires knowledge of law." Accordingly, it should be permissible for a lawyer to form an attorney-client relationship and provide a mediator with professional advice that the mediator needs for this occupation. In order to understand the limits of what is appropriate legal advice to give a mediator, we first examine what constitutes the practice of mediation under Utah law and current codes of conduct for mediators.

Dear Warren could not open the above 1952 pic. Please reput it in again. Happy New Year.
Dear Bway, Thanks for the pic of the old Met. Can you name the store that is next to Nedick's to your left. and the store next to that. Crawford was a men's clothes store then Nedick's. But I can't make out the next two stores and I am interested in recalling. My Aunt can't remember so I need some help. Thanks Anniegirl
Yes Sir Brooklyn Jim, Growing up in Brroklyn was great. To me as a kid Cino's was a upscale pizza place for me. As a kid it was eating in a high class resturant instead of a pizza place. the Clinton Hill apt's were upscale and yes they did look like projects. My Aunt lived on one of the High Floors and going in the elevator was scary. How do you like Bway pic of the old Met. Was a scene, Crawford mens clothing store and Nedicks. I never liked their Hot Dogs but I loved their Orange Drinks… My dad used to take me to Fort Green Park and I would always sit by the Soldiers and Sailors Monument. It seemed you can see the Navy Yard from that point. My children were born in Brooklyn Hospital in 1978 and 1989 (my change of life baby) HA. She is 16 going on 25 now. She loves all of my Brooklyn Memories. She is going to write a essay on Brooklyn, with my help. When my oldest Daughter got Married, I created a book of Brookly Memories for my elder relatives and they looked at them at the Wedding. It truly was a walk down memory lane for them. Talk to you soon.Anniegirl
Here's a photo of the old Loews Metropolitan, when they were tearing down the old Fulton St Elevated down, once it was replaced with the Fulton Subway.
The theater had seen light for the first time….
Anniegirl: No on the State @ Franklin & DeKalb. Yes on the State downtown. Most of the other items you mentioned are also a Yes: Cino's on Dekalb & Vanderbilt (mid-block), the Clinton Hill Apts. (we called them "the projects," but they were pretty upscale when built in the spring of '47), Fort Greene Park and Sailors Monument, S. Portland Ave. (my uncle owned a butcher shop there, and I passed by last April!) and Presley records (now worth a decent price to sell). Ah, you got it right: the movies, the music and the magic of growing up in Brooklyn…
Warren great research I love it. I was almost 2 years old. Iam sure my Parents, Aunts and Uncles went to the Met to see the Movie.Thanks for the billing. Anniegirl
Wow Warren what a billing!!!!!!anniegirl
Dear BrooklynJim. Do you remember the State Theater on DeKalb and Franklin Avenues? I went several times with my Dad to that moviehouse. I remember the red oriental rug that was placed on the staircase from the restrooms to the bottom of the stairs. That moviehouse showed first run movies. There was a record store on the same side of the street that faced Franklin Ave and three steps up to the store. I bought Elvis Presley 45's 78 here I vaguely remember the Peerless moviehouse. My Aunt lived on South Portland Ave in Ft Green and my other Aunt lived on Clinton Ave and Myrtle Ave in the Clinton Houses. We used to go to Cino's Resturant to eat Pizza. it was on DeKalb Ave. Had great fun as a kid growing up in Brooklyn. Anniegirl
Downtown B'klyn (Fort Greene & Clinton Hill – check out the Peerless Theater page /7090/ on Myrtle Ave. for some good memories) & ENY ('46-'78). Your grandmom and grandpa named your father well! :)
Congrats! You solved it on your own, Anniegirl! The shot was from '54, as evidenced by the "wide screen" and "stereophonic" blurbs. (P.S.: Left you a cool link on the Park page.)
I found it thanks Brooklyn Jim. My dad's name was Jim great guy. What part of brooklyn were or are you from. Iam from Williamsburgh Originally, now I live on Long Island with my Husband Lou and our 2 children. Anniegirl
At the top of your screen is a URL for Cinema Treasures. This theater is /1373/. Go up to that field, left click on the URL, click again (so the blue highlight disappears), and then you can replace 1337 with 557. That'll bring up the Loew's State page. EZ as pie. :)
Dear Brooklyn, I'am bad I found it. Great Pic of the GWTW by Warren. We need more pic's of great Movies like that. Anniegirl
Dear Brooklyn Jim how do I go to the Loew's State Theater page #557)anniegirl
Check out the great GWTW pic he posted 8-6-06 on the Loew's State Theater page (#557). It's a keeper.
Dear Warren,
I think your poster of 1936 is great. Although I was not born until 1945, I enjoy your research on the Movie Circut. My older Sister went to the Met to see Gone with the Wind with my Mom. I was not interested to see that particular Movie since I was just a kid. So my Mom took me, my sister and my Dad to Schraffts for Dinner which was next door to the moviehouse. Keep up the good work Warren. Anniegirl.
Dear SAPS and Warren,
The Loew's Metropolitan is now the 'Brooklyn Tabernacle' and that's how it will stay. Why not put your energy toward saving a theater that could become the Kings County Center for the Performing Arts? That's the Loew's Kings!
Don't you remember me??
Bruce (The Loew's Kings) My favorite theater has never been destroyed and despite water damage, it's intact.
So only talk about the Met. Anniegirl

ok warren you made your point lol. If u know what that means. How much can u say about the Met? Fabulous say's it all and that's all. Anniegirl.

Well, we've just been warned by Warren that Anniegirl and I are causing CHAOS by mentioning QUEENS theatres on the Loew's Metropolitan listing. I did think this was a place where Cinema Treasures everywhere were treasured.
So I'll shut up. Francesca
Hi Francesca,
Good to see you're still interested in theaters! When I did an episode of public access cable TV show 'That's Brooklyn,' your song really hit the spot.
Bruce. Hopefully, a meeting to try to save the Loew's Kings will be held on April 8th. Check under that department for further information.

My blog http://www.tampafilmfan.com is hosted through Yahoo. In my WP dashboard, I accidentally changed the WP URI to http://.tampafilmfan.com/blog (note the period before the name).
By manually typing the address, I was able to bypass the "can't find page" error message and access my General Options admin panel. But when I change it back, I get the "need to enable sending referrer" message.
I followed the codex instructions to add my site to IE's list of trusted sites, but it didn't work. When I view my files through Yahoo's site, I don't see any file called "options-name" and I can't find a way to view the phpMyAdmin table through Yahoo.
Can anyone please help me correct my URI listing? Thanks.


text: I have a site at dogni.com. When I add a product, I add several variations, along with variation images, but later, when I decide to add a new variation, when I try to do it, all my previous variations seem to disappear and I have to re-add them all over again. Am I doing this process wrong, is there some way I can do this without losing all my previous work? This is wasting a lot of time and it doesn't make sense that the plugin developer would make it so that you could not add new variations later to an existing product without re-addign all the previous variations all over again. Please someone help!!!

Hey there,
Thank you very much to whoever can help me out on this (or at least try):
My WooCommerce shop page depicts ten products: two rows of four, then one row of two. Can you envision the asymmetry? My worry is that customers will overlook the page scroll at the bottom and/or the category sidebar widget and just assume that there are a whopping ten products. Ha. How can I customize to have a certain amount of products on the shop page?
Thanks so much!

Whipping fun
Reviewed: 24 July 2016 by shexy1, a Straight Engaged Female
My OH bought me this as a surprise. As soon as the box arrived I couldn't wait to tear open and I definitely was not disappointed! The box it's presented in is subtle, and also perfect for storing the toy.
The toy itself is a work of art. The glass dildo is lovely with lots of little ribs to add that extra pleasure. The glass dildo is larger than I expected but it slides in with great ease. The ball on the end and the ribbed shaft both provide an amazing combination of different textures and heightened pleasure.
The whip end is of excellent quality. It feels heavy but soft when being whipped with which heightens the pleasure. This toy is a must-have for those that enjoy a good spanking.
Overall, me and my OH both love this toy and it has become a regular in the bedroom. You can also heat up in warm water or chill it in cold water or the fridge for heightened pleasure.
- Pros
- Everything! Absolutely perfect.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Amazing multi-functional toy both for dildo use and whipping.

Made my toes curl in pleasure
Reviewed: 11 December 2015 by sugarboobies2232, a Straight Going Steady Female
My boyfriend treated me to this over the weekend, as I had my eye on it for a while.
The packaging is actually really nice, a box which I actually wish I kept now instead of adding it to collection of empty dildo boxes in the recycling bin!
The dildo itself is beautifully shaped, and weighty so it gives a very full feeling. The textured glass feels amazing inside, and gave me a really strong orgasm. The end of the dildo is quite big, and I was a little wary, to be honest. It was only during play when my OH had me facing away on my knees when he used this and I turned around to ask which toy he was using as it felt incredible. I particularly enjoyed being teased with it, when he would put it in, and then pull it straight back out. Mind-blowing!
This is a great toy as it is can be used as a dildo, and a flogger. I've never been flogged and was scared it was going to hurt really bad. How wrong was I?! We played around for a little while to find the point where it was too much for me. I was pleasantly surprised as to how much I liked being on my knees and having my feet flogged. I can't even describe the sensation but it is wonderful, and then have that dragged slowly over your back. Never have I had goosebumps like that during sex before!
The flogger can have more of a thud sensation, or a sting, depending on how you use it. I'm not keen on the "whipping" feeling, but I adore the gentle thudding. I am totally new to flogging, and was terrified when my OH used it over my clit gently. Amazing.
So happy I've popped my flogging cherry! Worth the purchase, if anyone has it on your wish list, order it already! You won't regret it!
- Pros
- Absolutely everything!
- Cons
- I wish I had ordered it sooner!
- Bottom line
- Gave me goosebumps and made my toes curl in pleasure.

For me it's all about the sensation of glass. I've had vibratiors and dildos before but for me the glass is something higher end.
The ball part is especially sensual on entry and exit, a real tease. Can be put in the freezer for extra sensation. This being used on me and the light tickle of the leather felt amazing.
The box is really nice.

- Glass, cold sensation.

Milwaukee Film Festival picks: Day Eleven
One regrettable, if inevitable, occurrence during a film festival is that films you want to see often play opposite each other. That occurs Sunday at the Milwaukee Film Festival with parallel screenings of "The Act of Killing" (Downer Theatre) and "Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me" (Fox-Bay Cinema Grill), both at 8 p.m.
"The Act of Killing" is an appalling yet compelling and strangely beautiful documentary in which the Indonesian gangsters and paramilitary group members who killed 1 million Chinese "communists" in 1965 re-create their crimes as surreal movie scenes. »Read Full Blog Post

About Us
Advancing the interests of workers and their organizations through education and research
The Labor Resource Center (LRC) is an undergraduate education and research center located within the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Massachusetts Boston. The center's work is carried out through three programs:
- the Labor Studies Program, which includes the BA and minor in labor studies and the Certificate in Labor Leadership
- the Future of Work Research Initiative (FOWRI), which conducts and disseminates labor research on economic and workforce development
- non-credit community based worker education provided by the Labor Extension Program
The LRC has a long and distinguished history of contributions to the labor movement and the university. In 2010, we graduated our 150th student from our labor studies bachelor's degree program. From nationally renowned contributions to labor history to the regional impact of the "Labor at the Crossroads" series in the 1990's to action research for policy change on the issues of working families and economic development, the LRC has been on the frontlines for almost 30 years.
Our Mission
The mission of the Labor Resource Center is to advance the interests of workers and their organizations through education and research. Our work centers on the belief that the labor movement, representing both organized and unorganized workers, is an essential force for economic and social justice. Through our education and training programs, grounded in the proven principles of popular and participatory adult education, workers enhance their skills and knowledge as leaders, activists and citizens. We are committed to providing pathways from skills training through baccalaureate education for current and future leaders in the labor movement. Our research program disseminates knowledge on work and unions to the Massachusetts labor community and convenes labor organizations and the university community to foster dialogue and enduring partnerships for social change. We aim to provide the LRC with a solid foundation that will better serve our two constituencies, the labor movement and public higher education in Massachusetts. We seek to have active, stable and flexible relationships with community and campus partners across all our programs.

Missing OAP
April 19, 2012
Police have renewed an appeal for information on the whereabouts of a Jewish pensioner.

At the Metropolitan Police missing persons team in Catford, Ian Wall said there had been a sighting in September "at a synagogue in St John's Wood. However, she has still not been seen by police and her welfare checked".

I was going to try out your editor.. and I saw all the resolved topics and I thought, "man.. this guy is on top of things". But, then I dug a little further and noticed you mark them as "resolved" immediately... even if they are not.
Coming from a fellow developer... this gives a false impression. Allow your users to "resolve" the thread themselves (or do it yourself once the fix has been implemented in an update). This gives them a great feeling of satisfaction.. and let's us know you are a dedicated developer.
Here is my plugin.. with un-resolved threads. And it doesn't hinder my downloads at all. What the users want to see are solid updates which fix the bugs they mention in the forum.
I think you would increase your credibility if you only marked your threads as "resolved" if they are indeed, resolved.

Smith Barney has a 'sell' recommendation on HSBC saying the bank is not making its rating and has failed to deliver superior operating profit growth compared to other European banks.
With costs building and margin pressures evident in key areas the broker sees little change soon. The continued negative investment case is driven by three factors.
Firstly, the operational performance of the group remains lacklustre, with an apparent inability to generate revenue growth in excess of cost growth. This is in part a function of the group's geographic footprint, with a dominant proportion of its earnings derived from the mature markets of Britain, Hong Kong and New York.
Secondly, the broker is unconvinced of the group's merger and acquisition record, saying the addition of US consumer finance group Household International in 2003 has disappointed.
Finally, it is believed the substantial valuation premium the group enjoys over its peer group is unjustified.
After HSBC underperformed the British equity market 8 per cent last year, the broker retains a 3M (sell/medium risk) recommendation and lowers its target from 775p to 750p. The counter closed at 836p on Friday.

Hinds officials say military ballot issue settled
Hinds County election officials said they have corrected a problem with absentee ballots for people serving in the military overseas.
The Clarion-Ledger reports that the issue was raised by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign. It said Hinds County missed the Saturday deadline to send absentee ballots to military voters.
Deputy Circuit Clerk LaGecha McKinley said the county has missed the deadline for 13 people requesting paper ballots. McKinley said those 13 have agreed to accept emailed ballots and vote online.
McKinley said the ballots were held up because of lawsuit challenging Latrice Westbrook's candidacy for the Court of Appeals post. The Mississippi Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that Westbrook won't be on the ballot.

Are you saving to a Server?
Save locally if you are.
I'm working on a postcard design for print purposes with several embedded images and text elements. I've saved successfully several times early on, but suddenly, every time I attempt to save, I get the message "A File I/O Error Has Occurred". I need to get this to the printer, but can't make important changes now. HELP!
Are you saving to a Server?
Save locally if you are.
Crazy! Wasn't saving to a server, but to a 2-gig jump drive. When I saved it to my mac's hard drive, no problem. Is there a short answer to why that happens? I didn't appear to be out of space on the external drive...
Thanks Scott!
Check the Trash on the jump drive. It may need to be emptied.
I can't say specifically, the File I/O error clearly indicates that Illustrator can't write to wherever you are asking it to write to. Could be a server without proper permissions, a jump drive formatted as NTFS, a Diskette that's full or locked, etc.

2011. After waiting for a week nothing came. I called them and they said that they were not able to send me a new one because the box is open. Then I said to them... Why did you tell me it was ok and you were going to send me a new one?
At this point they sent it out to the manufacture to get it repaired. I was so frustrated with them I said, "Whatever get it fixed and send it back to me.They also said it will take up to 8 weeks for repairs. After 8 weeks I started calling and each time they would tell me that they will have some call me back and let me know whats going on. They never call me back and I get the run around every time and no one seems to know whats going on. No Im out $300 and will never know if I will get my amp. Today's date is June 7 2011. I called them and they said that it is still supposedly at the manufacturer and they will call me back. Over 3 months have passed and I have not gotten any amp. I shop online at least 4 times a month and used many different online stores.
Online car stereo is by far, hands down the worst online store ever. Do not shop here!!! The worst policies and customer service. I spoke to over half a dozen different people and they were all rude. What a rip-off!!!

Insights from Annual General MeetingsStrand, Therese (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This thesis consists of five empirical studies, all relating to shareholder activism at annual general meetings. The first study concerns the structure and content of general meetings in Denmark and Sweden comparatively. The paper reveals significant differences in the level of activism, with Swedish investors being the most active in terms of proposals, proxy voting, and 'voice'. The paper takes a legal approach, and discusses divergence in activism levels from the perspective of shareholder prerequisites to engage in monitoring efforts. Further, the paper investigating the topics addressed through questions and opinions. The results show that matters which can be categorized as irrelevant are reasonably rare. This is an important finding, as suggestions to abolish general meetings have often been based on the assumption that general meetings facilitate nothing but irrelevant, time consuming, and costly discussions that serves no monitoring function. The second study analyses the impact of voting power on shareholder activism. We hypothesize that there is a positive relationship between shareholder activism and a measure of the largest shareholder's sensitivity to increased participation by small shareholders and find that firms' amenability to small shareholder influence leads to more proposals by the nomination committee, but fewer proposals by other shareholders. We interpret this as evidence that the shareholder elected nomination committees effectively channel shareholder concerns and preempt other kinds of activism. Politicians and companies that desire active shareholders could improve the amenability of firms to shareholder influence by ownership transparency, shareholder committees, and contacts with shareholder associations and other vehicles for collective action...

This trend is interesting as for decades services had been characterized as intangible, perishable, heterogeneous and inseparable from their sources of origin making a geographic dispersion of service production and consumption unimaginable. Thus, the geographic relocation of the services is expected to infer organizational and operational reconfigurations also impacting the service production. The thesis studies these reconfigurations by questioning: how does offshoring impact on the production of services. In order to capture the unique characteristics of services and provide a thorough understanding of the phenomenon, detailed and dynamic analyses of activities and actors through process perspectives are argued to be necessary. Process perspectives allow studying relationships between actions and individual actors from an organizational and operational angle. Two process perspectives are applied in this thesis in three independent research papers. The first research paper studies the offshoring process as a strategic and organizational change process that leads to a misalignment of components of a services production system and questions how this impact elicits a reconfiguration of the system. The second and third paper investigates the offshored production process of knowledge-intensive services with a focus on actors in the processes and their activities. That is, the second paper questions how the increase of cognitive distance between actors inferred by offshoring changes the production of the services including costs and value outcomes. The third paper questions how offshoring impacts client co-production, i.e. the transfer and co-creation of knowledge, in a similarly designed service production process of knowledgeintensive business services. Collectively, this research shows that process perspectives on service offshoring are essential to study the impact of offshoring on service production. It also allows an understanding on the importance of actors and the causal links between them and activities. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9046

An application to ChinaLi, Xin (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The starting point of this PhD research is two observations. The first is that people often tend to discuss a country's national competitiveness in a general tone, i.e., judging a country to be either competitive or uncompetitive, rather than making more balanced assessment, and therefore their opinions often contradict each other. The second observation is that there are many competing international reports that rank a large number of countries in terms of their national competitiveness. These reports often provide different rankings for a given country (e.g., China), and therefore the readers of these reports are often left with a confusing picture. The first observation reflects the reality that there has been a lack of commonly accepted definition of national competitiveness. The second reflects the methodological problems of the indexing-and-ranking methods commonly used by international competitiveness reports... URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8357

Entrepreneurship-Enabled Dynamic Capability of Medium-Sized Multinational EnterprisesCao, Yangfeng (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This PhD dissertation focuses on business model innovation (BMI), which plays a central role in explaining firm performance and is viewed as a source of competitive advantage. A recent global survey of more than 4,000 senior executives by the Economist Intelligence Unit found that the majority (54%) favoured BMI over product or service innovation as a source of future competitive advantage. Hence, the research on BMI is a salient topic for strategic management and entrepreneurship studies because it is central to a firm's dynamic capability for novel value creation and novel value capture on a sustainable basis. Prior studies have argued that a business model can be only effective if it is designed properly for a specific context. In this sense, the business models of multinational enterprises (MNEs) should differ from those of domestic firms. Specifically, owing to the large gaps or distances in the economic and institutional contexts between advanced and emerging economies, as two sides of the global divide, cross-divide entry by MNEs, either from an advanced economy into an emerging economy as a top-down venture or from an emerging economy to an advanced economy as a bottom-up venture, will depend heavily on the novel business model designed to match the host context on the other side of the global divide. This is particularly true in the case of entering the mid-end market as the mainstream in the host economy. In addition, owing to the internal contextual dimensions of corporate size and age, the key challenge to a top-down venture seems more acute for medium-sized MNEs (MMNEs) than both large and small MNEs (the latter is often referred to as ‗born-global' firms). This is because MMNEs tend to have more limited resources than large MNEs, but less flexibility than small MNEs. Given the salience of the cross-divide context to MNEs as well as the paucity of research on MMNEs, this PhD dissertation focuses on how BMI occurs in the special context of cross-divide entry with a top-down venture for a mid-end market by MMNEs.

SOME people in the county's schools don't have enough ambition for their pupils, Oxfordshire's education chief has claimed.
It comes as figures show that Oxfordshire has failed to meet its target for improving the attainment gap between pupils receiving free school meals and those who don't.
There are around 540 secondary school pupils receiving free school meals because their parents are given payments such as income support or jobseekers' allowance.
Figures show that there is a gap of 33 per cent between the average GCSE scores of children who do get free school meals and those that do not, two per cent worse than the previous year. This is significantly larger than Oxfordshire's target gap of 26 per cent and county councillor Melinda Tilley, the cabinet member for education, called it "shocking".
She said: "We need to work on this and I think it is all to do with a lack of aspiration in some educational establishments. They think some children are not worth the trouble and we need to shift that quite dramatically.
"I don't want to pick out anybody in particular but if we don't have aspiration for these children where are they going to get it?
"Two years ago we set up aspiration networks between good or outstanding schools which go into schools that require improvement and show that what good or outstanding looks like.
"I don't think we are ambitious enough for children in the care system. "
Figures show that the gap in Oxfordshire in 2013 was 33 per cent compared to 27 per cent nationally – this means the gap has become wider from 2012 when it was 31 per cent, compared to 26 per cent nationally.
There were 35,910 secondary school pupils this year.
In April ,a report showed 70 per cent of county youngsters whose parents receive benefits are leaving school without five GCSEs at A* to C, including English and maths, compared to 62 per cent nationally.
Lynn Knapp.
Windmill Primary School headteacher Lynn Knapp said: "I think we do have to have really high expectations of all children and that really does make a difference.
"Sometimes you do hear of lower ability children not being able to do things but if you give them a chance they could. Parents do this as well, such as saying their child won't be very good at maths, and the child believes it."

Fargo police are investigating a pair of convenience store robberies in the city.
Fargo police Lt. Joel Vettel tells the Forum that a Cenex Zip Trip on 23rd Ave. South was robbed at gunpoint at about 4 a.m. Friday, with the suspect getting away with a small amount of money.
Vettel says a man entered the business wearing a ski mask and displayed a handgun before leaving the store and heading south.
A Thursday morning robbery happened around 4 a.m. at a Stop-N-Go store on University Drive.
No one was hurt in either incident.
Vettel says although there are similarities between the two cases, police do not know for sure if they are related.

If u get a call from N L Walker & Assoc., hang up !! Then run & hang up again !!!! They sound good, but they are anything but. Mark Benjamin (an associate I suppose) called me several times & got me to invest $2000 in a stock they were promoting real hard. I bought 1900 shares @ 99cents in December with the hot word it would go to $5 by March 1. Now, March 10 and it has soared to 6cents. I tried to call them on every number I can find & all the phones are out of service. This was my first time to buy penny stock & I got hung out to dry. Thank God it was not more money than that.

There is a stock picking competition between several US and Canadian bloggers to pick the best four stocks for 2009, which I was invited to participate in. The rules do not allow trading or selling of these picks, and requires a quarterly review of how the stocks selected have performed.
The stocks that I selected are representative of four high-yield sectors, where dividend investors typically shop for current income. Furthermore despite their high current yields, the dividend payments for the four stocks below seem sustainable.
Realty Income (O) a commercial retail real estate company yielding 7.30% . Realty Income is a dividend achiever which pays dividends monthly to its shareholders. If the credit market remains frozen in 2009 Realty Income could suffer if its vacancies increase or it can't find more funds to keep expanding. If the financial situation normalizes however, real estate stocks in general will benefit from low interest rates.
Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP) is a pipeline transportation and energy storage company in North America yielding 9%. This master limited partnership is a member of the dividend achievers index. The low energy prices could stimulate demand in 2009, which could positively affect pipeline businesses like Kinder Morgan.
Consolidated Edison (ED) provides electric, gas, and steam utility services in the United States yielding 6.10%. Even during tough economic conditions people keep paying their electric bill and keep heating their homes. Con Edison is a member of the dividend aristocrats index.
Phillip Morris International (PM) is an international tobacco company yielding 5.10%. The international tobacco market is a growth story, and unlike the US market is not facing as many issues in the short term as Altria (MO). Even during a recession, people continue smoking, as this product is very difficult to stop using.
With an average yield of 6.9% and the possibility for long-term dividend growth, these stocks should weather well any market conditions in 2009. In order to generate dividend income for the long run however, a more diversified portfolio consisting of at least 30 stocks should be constructed in order to withstand market forces. Check out the Best Dividend Stock for the Long Run list, which is a good addition to today's post.
Disclaimer: At the time of this writing I owned shares of O, KMR, PM and ED.
