US/MEXICO: Anheuser-Busch InBev agrees to buy remaining Grupo Modelo stake for US$20bn
By James Wilmore | 29 June 2012
Grupo Modelo has agreed to sell to A-B InBev
Anheuser-Busch InBev has agreed to buy the 50% share in Grupo Modelo it does not already own in a deal worth US$20.1bn.
Under the deal, announced this morning (29 June), A-B InBev will pay US$9.15 per share in cash. Separately, Grupo Modelo will sell its 50% stake in Crown Imports LLC to Constellation Brands for US$1.85bn.
Grupo Modelo's name will be retained and its headquarters will remain in Mexico City, A-B InBev confirmed. The Budwesier brewer said it expected the combination to yield annual synergies of "at least US$600m".
Carlos Brito, A-B InBev's CEO, said: "There is tremendous opportunity from combining two leading brand portfolios and further expanding Grupo Modelo's brands worldwide through AB InBev's extensive global distribution network."
The two companies have endured a fractious relationship in recent years, after Modelo became part of the merged A-B InBev in 2008. But speculation arose earlier this week that a deal could be on.
Carlos Fernández, Grupo Modelo's chairman and CEO said today: "We have worked together with Anheuser-Busch InBev in a productive decades-long partnership, and it is time to cement our relationship through this merger."
The deal is expected to complete in the first quarter of 2013.
Sectors: Beer & cider, Mergers & acquisitions
Companies: Anheuser-Busch InBev, Grupo Modelo, Constellation Brands

I would stay here again, though I would ask for a room not on the street side, because it's noisy day and night.
Hotel location and good service.
Albergo Ristorante Giordino was wonderful. located in a charming smaller town next to Lake Como, and very close to Como City itself. the hotel is really lovely, excellent price for the value, our room was clean and spacious and we too were pleasantly surprised that we received the room with the private terrace facing the mountains. great for us as it was at the back of the hotel away from the street, providing a more quiet stay. wifi worked seamlessly. dinner in the restaurant (we had pizza) was delicious, and breakfast was fine. really nice staff. all good!
Stayed for one night on route back to Hook of Holland travelling by m/cycle. The receptionist was very helpful and cheerful and our room was clean, bright and well fitted out. The restaurant was very busy with two large parties so we decided to eat out at the Miralago by the lake- an excellent choice of food and good service. We did use the bar on our return, small but again friendly staff and good service. Other guests seemed to have enjoyed their visit. Would like to have stayed longer and would definitely use again. Would make an ideal base for touring in the area, only a short walk to lake ferry stop.
Only complaint would be there was no window,but there was a skylight that opened. Staff was very helpful, Nice restaurant. Great location, one block from the lake.

The Post Primary Teachers Association has launched a campaign encouraging people to make submissions on the Education Amendment Bill that establishes charter schools in New Zealand.
In its campaign the PPTA criticises the Government for holding the public consultation period during a time ''when the nation is on holiday''.
Written submissions on the bill close on January 24.
To publicise its campaign the union printed advertisements that read: ''There's a private part National and Act don't want you to see this summer.''
Underneath, the words ''Charter Schools'' are partially covered by a fig leaf.
The PPTA says the proposed bill shows charter schools will have little transparency with no accountability for the spending of public money.
Following the closing of submissions the bill will return to parliament for a second reading.

There is something strange in the air...like that feeling before a storm. You can feel the electric charge in the atmosphere and that anticipation of the mother of all storms, but, nothing comes. Instead there is just a prolonged feeling of anticipation of something coming down the line that will change everything. This is how it feels with "digital transformation" in the vast majority of companies across Europe today.
The first problem is what exactly is "digital." For all intents and purposes a company has to define their own meaning for "digital." Most of the definitions I have found seem to hinge around the core concepts of Multi-Channel or even Omni-Channel support for emerging business and technology interfaces. This definition seems to go in a few different directions which may sound familiar:
- Responsive Web Design being used to hit every channel possible
- Mobile-First approach being used to target the mobile device demographic first
- Something called 'Beyond-Mobile-First', which seems to end up in a debate about Internet of Things and touching on Google Glass
Let's now take a look at a few of the trends in mobility today and how they relate to digital transformation. There are strong movements in mobility towards the concepts of backbone and angular due to the fact they are HTML5 frameworks that offer built in governance. Certainly there is a growing realization that the "30 second App" market is dead and we should instead be focusing on what happens 6 months down the line. Life cycle management is the new "30 second App" and that means frameworks need to support built in governance.
Architecturally speaking, best practices are an API driven approach with a 4-tier architecture supporting data transformation and high end scalability. Whilst many people are looking at accelerators for both the client tier and the service tier (cross platform code, design time APIs, App Factories, templates, Cloud Build farms, intelligent next generation scripting languages and Cloud cross-compilation), we often forget about the data itself.
Angular teaches us not only about Test Driven Development but also of the importance of Data Driven Development which means a data model is agreed upfront and then a globalized development team can work independently against the same data contract. Just as important is the data transformation tier, as championed by companies like MoovWeb with their Responsive Delivery solution powered by Tritium.
End-to-end holistic JavaScript solutions are certainly starting to become commonplace, with embedded JavaScript offering the same stack for implicit wearable devices. An often forgotten factor is mobile data virtualization as championed by companies like KidoZen. Particularly relevant in business verticals with many duplicate and disparate backend systems is the ability to virtualize and abstract data sources along with integrate into complex legacy Enterprise backends using transformational logic on complex system responses. WOW! What a mouthful!
I often talk about Mobile Backend as a Service as a Cloud technology but I realized I have been underselling it from a business potential. Digital Transformation will need to be enacted through an actualization of Omni-Channel that strongly takes into account the socialization and connectedness of people, powered by a duology of API Gateways and Mobile Backend as a Service.
I have identified three key factors in a digital practice:
- Firstly the biggest challenge is the organizational, political and human effects of a digital transformation.
- Secondly, you have to find the right experts in the field (Social, Mobile, Analytics, Cloud, Business Process Management, Technology, Strategy, Data Transformation) and elevate your current thought process up. The easy solution is of course just to downscale your thoughts and pick anti-expert generalists who view everything on a lower level of cognitive reasoning. I can see lots of organizations sadly settling for this approach and getting average results.
- Thirdly you need to define the channels that you are actually targeting and the love you wish to give them.
Does this sound like your definition of a Digital Transformation and Mobile Strategy, "Multi-channel powered by Responsive Web Design (RWD) or Responsive Design with Server Side Components (RESS) for all the different channel end points. This is achieved by pushing a common presentational layer to all the clients and then allowing the client to adapt it using media queries. RESS allows for a mixture of adaptive and responsive behavior by adding in device families and adaptive knowledge which is shared between the client and the server." If this is your definition, then there is more work to do. Here are some reasons.
Mobile-First made people optimize for the mobile end point first, which had the tangible benefit that the other endpoints are all optimized as a result. However, with the advent of the Internet of Things people are already thinking about "next channels."
CIO, CTO & Developer Resources
Beyond-Mobile-First and Omni-Channel means we need to think about all of our channel endpoints and give them all the optimal experience. This pretty much necessitates a client-side rendering approach with (adaptive) Responsive Delivery Cloud Transformation solutions as a fallback for dumb clients (no offense intended). I certainly see cross-compiled JavaScript and JSON as a viable Omni-channel solution and most IoT hardware vendors actually have chipsets that can run embedded JavaScript now.
Future channels include: automobiles; implicit wearable devices; explicit wearable devices; virtual reality devices; TVs; game consoles; eReaders; low end tablets; advertising boards; and even clothing. I actually had a programmable T-Shirt from CyberPunk 15 years ago - you could program different sequences which looked amazing in nightclubs (at least to me).
You need to choose the channel end points which are of interest to you and not all will be initially successful which is why you need to employ the guidance of technology strategists. Explicit wearable devices like Google Glass are financially prohibitive and the implicit wearable device market is fragmented without a clear leader. The automotive market for apps is not in a good shape due to the financial cost of getting an application released due to security sign-offs. Smart TVs seem to offer a bad form of widgets which you cannot interact with very well and the Angry Birds TV App looks quite prohibitive to one's health.
The future architecture looks to be client controlled rendering with JavaScript based frameworks (Angular, Embedded JavaScript, Cross-Compilation through Hyperloop) that pull the JSON data models they need through a combination of Mobile Backend as a Service and API Gateways. The allows a down-scaling of the traditionally heavy Java EE middle tier and a movement away from the expensive and monolithic server frameworks of yesteryear. Node scales far better than anything other than Scala/Lift and that is just the way the market is going. We also have to consider the real wow factor of iOS 8 was transient channels which can maintain state between different user channel interactions. We will also see a shift from Customer Relationship Management software to Customer Experience Management software and Digital Enterprise Platforms, of which Adobe is leading the way in terms of mindshare.
I therefore propose the following definition of an effective digital strategy:
"Transient Omni-channel with dedicated channels for most of the following: desktop; mobile; tablets; eReaders; wearables; TVs; automobiles; and PoS. The correct channels are chosen by a business consultant who can accurately map your business model with appropriate technology predication. Builds on top of Cloud-First, Mobile-First, but adds in optimized end-point specific rendering for new channels like small screen wearables. This is achieved by the client pulling data through APIs to offer the very best experience; as opposed to the server pushing non-optimized presentational layers. Powered by a 4-tier architecture that utilizes API Gateways, Mobile Backend as a Service, data transformation and data virtualization. Customer Experience Management works in tandem with Customer Relationship Management to deliver Digital Enterprise Platforms. A focus on connected people and the new business models associated with that brave new world. The experience of the people is key and the way you connect to them and gauge their reactions should shape your business if you are to be successful"

Enter the conversational interface revolution, combining bots we can literally talk with, gesture to, and even direct with our thoughts, with embedded artificial intelligence, wh...

Recent reviews
Good 3.4 /5 from 14 reviews
Our room was so run down. Ceiling crumbling/rotting, walls in disrepair, mold around the edge of bathroom tub, dirty linen. Waste of money. Too bad because it used to be a really nice place
On the arrival at this villa my attention is focused on the neighbour that is disturbingly cutting ceramic tiles until 10 pm. My intention of having a holiday in a private villa is finding peace and tranquility. My peace and tranquility is vanished because I the noise reach 80 dB. I bring a decibel meter everywhere to measure which is disturbing and which is not. The standard for comfortness is 60 dB max. The front office staff is friendly but there's nothing he can do. For your information i stayed at villa 3. Which has no privacy at all because the neighbour is building a hotel that is higher than the villa. Around 3 storeys high. The workers of the neighbour often made sounds like hammer pounding to the railling. I don't know what are their intentions. Because the neighbour hotel height is 3 storeys high, the workers would watch you swimming in your private pool. I found this is also very disturbing. Above that, i found it surprisingly that if we have breakfast at the villa, the hotel will send 2 of it staff to serve the food on the table. They will heat your bread so that it's still hot when you eat it.

Subaru BRZ vs Ford Mustang track test [Video]
On Motor Trends Head 2 Head, pro race driver Randy Pobst takes the 2013 Ford Mustang V-6 and the 2013 Subaru BRZ Limited out on Willow race track to see which car comes out on top with interesting results. Angus MacKenzie who hosts the program, first took both cars out on winding canyon roads to see how they perform. After carving up the corners, Angus hands the keys over to Pobst for some hot laps around the track.
Both the 2013 Subaru BRZ and the 2013 Ford Mustang are front engine rear-wheel-drive coupes, but that is where the similarities end. The first thing you notice is the large difference in horsepower and engine displacement. The Subaru BRZ has a 2.0-liter flat four engine that produces 200 horsepower. The Ford Mustang has a 3.7-liter V-6 engine with 305 horsepower under the hood. On paper it looks like it's a no brainer which is the faster car. But that doesn't always mean it's the more entertaining car to drive. Let's look at the rest of the differences before seeing what Angus MacKenzie and Randy Pobst think.
2013 Ford Mustang V-6 with the performance package
The 2013 Ford Mustang comes with the 3.7-liter V-6 engine and included the $1,995 performance package. The V-6 performance package included the 6-speed manual transmission, strut-tower brace, larger front sway bar and SVT rear sway bar, unique front springs, front and rear calipers with performance friction pads,19" aluminum wheels with performance 255/40R19 tires, stability control calibration, and a 3.31 rear-axle. As tested, the the sticker price of the V-6 Mustang was $30,830.

In fairness you have to wait for the download
For me it's more the fact that in order to play ps4 games at their highest settings there is no option other than ps4 neo. Instead of Scorpio I can just upgrade my windows 7 PC to Windows 10 free and then buy a new GPU...but being the crazy person I am I may just buy a Scorpio anyway...let's see how the final products look.
It took me a while to realize all the music from the trailers and videos was being done by that orchestra.
Neo comes out a year earlier than the Scorpio...why is the power difference news... FYI a Neo with the power of scorpio would cost more than the scorpio is going to cost...It is a year's difference in power costs.
What if it has a Solid State DRive in it?
This article is very naive. Nuff said.
I just recieved my amplitude rewards in the mail today...I helped a game get made and got rewarded...I win.
The unbias answer is power doesn't matter unless something in the game can't be done on older hardware...but then we already know that there won't be exclusive games on ps4 while on xb1 the vr games will be exclusive. This leads me to one conclusion: The Vr experience on xb1 has to take advantage of the power difference.
Think ps2 version of force unleashed vs ps3 version of force unleashed. Power can be helpful in creating new things...but no game has done that...
Everyone likes to talk megatons, and then when Sony drops them a la Spiderman they suddenly don't matter anymore.
If you take out previously announced games MS showed 2 new games. DR 4 which isn't even exclusive and State of Decay.
Spiderman was the biggest MEGATON since Square Enix Announced FF13 for xbox 360.
Yes Shawn Layden who took over for Jack Tretton who left Sony.
I spit up a bit ty for that.
Can I play Spiderman on it? A character whose fanbase is not limited in any arbitrary way. MS needs to grab a character fast.
And to be frank what if sony Announces the ps5 for release the next year? And makes it forwards and backwards compatible with this new trend that is starting.Suddenly that 6tflops is 8tflops then 10...power wont matter with this new release schedule...only exclusives, and Sony showed the exclusives at E3. The only way I buy a scorpio to replace my xb...
At the end of the day 6tflops doesn't matter if I can't play spiderman on it.
#and wii and ps1.
Zorkaz...I want to read this but you need a few paragraphs
I myself am only a gpu away from futureproofing my rig for the next 4 years...I have a ps4,xb1, and a pc why do I need to buy their new console? I am willing to bet the price will be no less than $499...Why not spend that money on a new GPU...next years gpu even. What is there that I can't possibly play without a scorpio?
Star Yes exactly with the gpu upgrade I would be playing most games on pc, but the only logic I can find in this new policy is that they truly don&...
To be honest I was suspecting some blowback about Crash being remastered instead of bought...but I was pleasantly surprised that people loved that just as much.
The point is you have to transport it with the console. Rather than just a simple power cable.
I actually understand this lol
maybe for ps4 neo?

We have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that it's entirely possible for one person to completely change the world with the power of their mind. The bad news is that it almost certainly won't be in the way they envisioned. History is full of examples of inventors who've seen their noble, genius intentions go the Frankenstein route and bring the world nothing but pain and misery, such as ...
6 Alfred Binet's IQ Test Got Hijacked by Eugenics-Obsessed Racists
lixuyao/iStock/Getty Images
The whole concept of using a simple number to score somebody's brainpower goes back to French psychologist Alfred Binet, who developed the precursor to the IQ test in 1905. It's the sort of thing that doesn't seem to have the horror potential of your average mad science experiment; Binet had merely noticed that different children of the same age learn at different rates, so why not tailor the classroom to them by putting them through a series of cognitive tests to see what they can handle?
After all, how could that information ever possibly be misused? Even if, say, children of certain races or backgrounds consistently scored lower, surely everyone would simply realize that was a sign that the system was failing them. Surely.
"What's that word you're using? You-genics? I'm afraid I'm not familiar."
Noooo! You Maniacs!
First, Binet himself knew his test wasn't all that scientific. It came with tons of disclaimers stressing that the test does not measure static intelligence and should not be used to label people in any way. And, for the single purpose of figuring out a kid's level of development, it worked pretty well. But then American eugenicists got hold of his work. The eugenicists loved the idea of intelligence tests because they wanted to use them to identify and weed out "the idiots" from the gene pool, which, by sheer coincidence, all happened to include anyone who wasn't a white American. Never mind that the score can absolutely be improved with education -- why burden the system with teaching children when we can just breed superior intelligence into them!
Thus, immigrants at Ellis Island were tested using the Binet scale (which was never meant for adults) so that eugenicists could rank races of people like they were Pokemon, but without acknowledging that they could level up with experience. The "results" naturally showed that intelligence was closely linked to how white your skin was, which was then used to propagate the idea that people from southern and eastern Europe were barely smarter than well-trained horses, and about as useful.
National Parks Service
"How good are you at pulling carts?"
It went even further downhill after Binet's invention was used to mess with people's junk. After intelligence tests took off, 30 states used them as the basis of forced sterilization, which by the 1960s affected 60,000 Americans, all because an old-timey BuzzFeed quiz determined that their Simpsons character was Ralph Wiggum.
Binet died in 1911, thankfully missing the worst of this. But not long before his death, he complained about the "brutal pessimism" of "deplorable verdicts that affirm that the intelligence of an individual is a fixed quantity." And if he wasn't such a gentleman, he probably would have added "you unbelievable assholes" to it.

Enter coordinates for two points to describe line, radius of the circle and its center point to get coordinates for points of intersection between this line and circle. If there no such point you will get the shortest distance between line and center of the circle. Also you can change tolerance for calculation, which can be useful when you get strange answers like "no points of intersection", and at the same time distance from center point is equal to the radius. By default tolerance is set to 0.001 to avoid it, but you can change it to 0 (Zero)or any value as you wish.

The CIA World Factbook is a great encyclopedic source of information about all the countries in the world and a great place for students to find information for the classic country report project. But have you ever wished that the World Factbook would be linked to the current events and media sources for the country of your choice? That is exactly what the BBC news has created with their Country Profiles page, an expansion on their regional tabs (such as Africa and Asia). This is a link worth bookmarking, and one I'll including in tag with a compilation of the best resources that I've put on this site (IMHO-If you have nominees that aren't on the list, let me know).
Michael Grant's comment, September 12, 2012 4:07 PM
This toll will and can provide a reliable mapping source to geographers everywhere. It is useful and fun. A neat way to learn cartography
's comment, September 12, 2012 11:31 PM
The OverlapMap is a very useful tool that will allow a user to compare different places and parts of the world. Having a more accurate size of a place is critical when comparing 2 or more places. I think that many users besides me will find this very convenient when other resources are not available.
Seth Dixon's curator insight, April 21, 2014 11:48 PM
The above overlap map is the United Kingdom compared to the state of Pennsylvania. This is a very simple way to demonstrate the true size of remote places, and 'bring the discussion home.' This site is as simple and intuitive as it is powerful and easily applicable. This is a keeper.
Kenny Dominguez's curator insight, December 12, 2013 12:26 AM
It is a good thing that there is more megacities being created because you can see more people move in which will help the city function better economics wise. When it comes down to the population that is a different story because there is more people to worry and deal with. The increase of people could go both ways because it can be good but at the same time it can go bad because people will start arguing in which it can get physical which means city ratings going down.
Corine Ramos's curator insight, January 22, 12:03 PM
It's not just that more people now live in cities than in the rural countryside (for the first time in human history). It's not just that major cities are growing increasingly more important to the global economy. The rise of the megacities (cities over 10 million inhabitants) is a startling new phenomenon that really is something we've only seen in the last 50 years or so with the expectation that the number of megacities will double in the next 10 to 20 years (currently there are 23). This reorganization of population entails wholesale restructuring of the economic, environmental, cultural and political networks. The urban challenges that we face today are only going to become increasingly important in the future.
Jake Red Dorman's curator insight, November 13, 2014 2:25 PM
Clearly the water level has decreased in Kazakhstan from 1990 until now. Farming, mining, and building are all indirectly changing the geography of some places. The use of rivers for cotton irrigation has shrunk by 3 quarters in the last 50 years and it is extremely affecting the Aral Sea.
Edelin Espino's curator insight, December 13, 2014 3:10 PM
Is sad to see how humans are changing the environment forcing the wild creatures to abandon the places they've been living for hundred or years or die of starvation. I wonder what will happen in 300 years when there is no more big lakes and the oceans will be completed polluted .
Tanya Townsend's curator insight, November 20, 2015 2:57 PM
Great tool to show students how human use of natural resources can change landscapes and have permanent impacts on geographical landmarks such as the aerial sea. How do we stop it? Can we undo the damage done? How do we prevent these tragedies from happening in the future?
Paul Rymsza's comment, August 22, 2012 2:15 PM
the potential of this site is amazing between the interactive learning system and the correlation between the timeline and location. If the human geography class is anything like this i can't wait for it!
Seth Dixon's curator insight, September 28, 2013 3:34 PM
This database of global wars and conflicts is searchable through space and time. You can drag and click both the map and timeline to locate particular battles and wars, and then read more information about that conflict. This resource would be a great one to show students and let them explore to find what they see as interesting. This site is brimming with potential.

On Saturday, August 9th, 2014, the 21st Annual Sprint for Spina Bifida promises to showcase many individuals and families who truly are "Stronger Together." Over 500 people will proudly participate in the 2mile, 5k and 10k events that wind through the beautiful Menomonee River Parkway and Oak Leaf Trail in Milwaukee and Wauwatosa.
Several local athletes representing The Ability Center and Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Associations will be competing in the handcycle and racing chair divisions for the 5k and 10k. One of them is Melanie Watson from Oconomowoc, who has Spina Bifida. She will be competing in her first 10k in the race chair division. Many families and volunteers have been attending this event for over 20 years and love to show their spirit in the 2 mile walk/wheelchair.
For runners, the fast course has been certified by USA Track and Field and will be chip timed. Staggered start times, along with support from the Wauwatosa and Milwaukee Police Departments and volunteers, ensures a great racing experience for all.
Spina Bifida Wisconsin, Ltd. (SBWIS) is grateful to the many loyal sponsors who make this event possible, such as Dominiczak Therapy Associates, LLC and Children's Hospital of WI. SBWIS provides resources and support to individuals throughout the state with, or affected by, Spina Bifida.
Please go to http://www.firstgiving.com/sbwis/21st-annual-sprint-for-spina-bifida, or call, 414-607-9061, for more details or registration information.
