My child hits me. How should I handle it?
My preschooler hits me when he's frustrated. I've explained that he's hurting me and his behavior is unacceptable, but he continues to do it. Help!

help! My 3 year old has started trying to "control" me to a crazy degree. when I go to the bathroom she comes in starts screaming at me to stop and starts hitting me. Normally I'd take her to her room for a time out but I"m not able to get up right at that second. I don't know how much more I can take of her screaming at me at 6AM and kicking and hitting my while on the toilet.posted 08/28/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
i would pull down his pants and give him 4 good swats and say its not nice to hit so if you hit me again Spank him 8 times it worksposted 08/08/2011 by flyersgirl15
The only thing hitting your child does is teach them that they just shouldn't have done whatever it is they did "IN FRONT" of you. Actually helping them understand why it was a problem works so much better. Spanking only hurts children and SHOULD hurt the mother who finds herself having to hit her child.posted 08/01/2011 by Leahcarre
I'm really shocked to read how many of you moms in here actually approve of and practice spanking as a consequence for bad behavior such as hitting or biting. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I'm not an American, I live in a country where spanking your child is actually illegal. Punishing your child with the same behavior you are trying to eliminate is totally illogical. Even if it does "work" in the short run, think about the message it's sending to your child, it's not okay for me to hit but it's ok for mommy to hit me??? Not to mention the emotional damage it causes in the long run. I feel sorry for the children out there who have to suffer at the hands of their mothers and fathers, who are supposed to love and protect them, NOT hurt them!!! My two year old hits and throws things, and of course it makes me frustrated beyond belief, but it doesn't cross my mind to stoop down to my two year old's level and hit back. The though of doing that makes me cringe.posted 07/31/2011 by norwaymom1
Also, for the person who quoted the bible saying "We should beat our kids"... that sounds completely idiotic. This is why I'm in child and youth care, to help parents like you who obviously have no clue what you're doing... Really it doesn't have to be that bad. There need not be "spankings" to make a point. People who have studied know there are other methods that work if you try them from the beginning and put work into it. Just because you're bigger doesn't give you the right to hit a child. Look up the UN RIGHTS OF CHILDREN.posted 07/21/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
just for the record... under this title "My child hits me" for those of you who "spank" your child as punishment... I have a few things to suggest. I became a mother not long ago and I was gung-ho spank your kids!! And then... to better myself as a parent I took family courses... I completely changed my mind about spanking. If it's possible for me, it's possible for anyone. You need to understand that when your child hits you, ESPECIALLY if your child hits you, hitting them back and saying "don't hit!" isn't exactly logical. There are SOOO many other ways to enforce the rules and it all starts at the beginning. Honestly look for some parenting courses nearby and take them. It changed the way I view motherhood and good parents. Honestly I cannot emphasize this enough. It will change your life, and your child's life, for the better.posted 07/21/2011 by Leahcarre
I have a 4 year old boy who recently started peeing in the house. He is totally potty trained and has been since he was 2. He was first blaming it on the dog, but we found out it was him.He has been doing it at grandma and grandpas too-his caretakers. Any thoughts???posted 07/12/2011 by coloradoangel_99
izzyrantamrae: What have your spankings been like in the past? They cannot be done in anger. You must give the spanking in a calm and matter-of-fact way. Let him know that spankings are a natural result of his bad behaviour, and they will occur every time he disobeys you. Children need a consistent, confident authority that meets out justice and establishes boundaries in their world. They need to know that their parents are the ones in charge -- at all times. When parents send mixed messages about who's in charge it not only frustrates their child but generates instability in them, too. They will act out in amazingly rebellious ways because they're looking for the lines, wanting someone to clearly enforce the rules. This shouldn't be surprising -- aren't we the same way? Which of us wants to live in a society that has no rules, no authority setting down laws and bringing consequences to bear on lawbreakers?posted 06/15/2011 by TheFirst Michelle
Most importantly wait until your son is not having a meltdown to talk to him. You won't get anything but more frustrated. Wait until he is calmed down, then attempt conversation. How often do you reward your son for good behavior? Verbal praise, with out a "but" can do wonders. I am not totally against spanking, but do try to use other alternatives first.posted 06/15/2011 by jennigomlo
I have posted in the past about my son hitting me...I am now 8 months pregnant with my second child...my son tried to kick my stomach yesturday while saying he hated the baby...he was mad he didnt get his way on something...i didnt hit him or n e thing else just tried to talk to him and find out why he didnt like the baby thats not here yet...talking to him about it resorted into him trying to choke our puppy later in the evening and again tonight...just because he got mad...i have spanked him and done time out and taken stuff away and even upped his bedtime...nothing is working but making him worse...if you have any ideas im open to advice...for those of you who dont agree with spanking...i was raised in the 80s and let me tell you spanking was a must then...now we are told its abuse...what was it then? we have problem children because discipline has been taken out completely...stores, homes schools...when are they ever going to be afraid of us because we are afraid to discipline?posted 06/15/2011 by izzyrantamrae

I understand that. But even if they marry, its not going to mean anything in a lot of countries. gay married couples that move over to England won't have any rights. Nor in a large amount of countries. I'm not trying to start things or say gays shouldn't have the option, I'm just wanting to know why they want to have the option for a ceremony that was designed for a man and woman.
I don't know any Jewish people who want to be baptized. If I was gay, I wouldn't care about the ceremony. I'd just want the rights and the recognition. When I do marry my girlfriend, it won't be about the ceremony, its so the government will recognize our union.
#67 - anonymous (01/31/2013) [-]
You can't be this stupid. Let me put this to you extremely simply:
Black people should go to different schools while whites go to the normal ones. They're still schools, so it's fine.
Blacks should live in different cities, while whites live in the same ones. They're still cities, so it's fine.
Blacks should have different rights but have them have the exact same meaning. They're still rights, so it's fine.
The only purpose of ^ that was to make the racists happy and tell black people they don't belong in the same class of white people. And yes, they did have that argument when discussing equal rights.
The only purpose to this is to make extremists who think marriage began with religion and that gays shouldn't be a part of said religion happy. You're still saying they're aliens and don't belong. It's a non-solution.
#68 - TastyBurger (01/31/2013) [-]
Oh, I''m sorry. I didn't know I was saying gays weren't equal to us. Cause I could have sworn I said, "I'm just looking for reasons why they care about a pointless ceremony and not just the rights". Someone's already explained exactly what you did. I'm not arguing against it, I was asking a simple question. No need to be a dick.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Red light cameras pulled from council agenda
Updated On: Aug 01 2013 03:50:59 PM CDT
A line has been removed from the agenda on Thursday night's Clive City Council meeting.
"7. Conditional motion to operate red light camera system."
The city turned off its automated red light traffic cameras in mid-July after a contract with the vendor that manages the cameras, Redflex Traffic Systems, ended. A new contract has not yet been approved.
Clive City Attorney Jim Wine said citations will not be issued from the red-light cameras until a new contract is completed and approved by the city council.
City officials said the city ordinance allowing red light camera enforcement is still in place. The council directed staff in July to negotiate a new, short term contract with Redflex instead of the five year contract that was voted down in mid-July.

Cutbacks by cash-strapped state and local governments helped restrict economic growth to anemic levels, according to fresh data Friday, signaling a weakening recovery as lawmakers continue to wrangle over the nation's spending.
The report from the Commerce Department showed the economy grew at a snail's pace of 1.3 percent in the spring, sapping hopes that the recovery would pick up later this year. Perhaps even more alarming was that the agency said the economy in the first three months of the year was far worse than it had been initially estimated, with growth at a near standstill.

Interesting Stats On Average Weight Loss
The other day I was reading up on a site thats pretty much dedicated to the 5:2 plan ,who have rather smartly been asking their users to submit their weight loss to their online tracker. I found the results quite interesting (although hardly scientific I admit)
Their claims are so far, 5:2 ( 2937 members) av loss per week 1.08lbs, 4:3 (169 members) av 1.28 lbs per week and ADF (only 34 members) av 1.45 per week.
Although the results are fairly skewed by the large number of 5:2 members versus other plans I have to admit the 1.28lbs per week for 4:3 sounds about right for my own numbers, however I have never lost anything doing 5:2.
It will be interesting to see how the stats move along over time.
Interesting - I am doing 4:3 but only recently began watching my calories on my 4 up days. I was stuck for a really long time but I think I am starting to see movement down now. I have been sick (diverticulitis) so I will have to keep track when I start to eat normally again.
What does 4:3 mean?? Sorry if its a stupid question
The loss seems high for 5:2. I don't lose at all on 5:2.
I agree with you Carly I think as 5:2 is enjoying great popularity in the UK you might have a lot of week 1 losses in there and not many who've been on the diet for more than a month, the week I tried 5:2 I gain almost half a pound !
Here are my stats, if we want to keep track of our own losses as a group.
I have been JUDDDing(ADF) for 19 weeks and I have released 26 pounds for a weekly average of 1.36 pounds. Since that includes several 'cheats', I think I am doing pretty well.
The results could also be skewed by how much the reporting parties weigh. With ADF, I started out averaging about 3 pounds per week (when I had a LOT to lose) and as I got closer to goal, it slowed to around 1 to 1.5 pounds per week. I understand that's fairly common.
That being said, I went into maintenance in January and switched to 5:2 and did continue to lose. It stabilized about 7 pounds down from when I went into maintenance.
these numbers would be so much more useful if people continued to report after they stop losing fast. I am not knocking THIS plan at all, I mean the same for everything. the ability to stick longterm and not regain is the key, not exactly how fast people lose when they stick to it.
I firmly believe that the inability to stick to plans is largely hormonal, and a relevant measure of the plan's usefulness rather than a sign of individual weakness. It sounds like JUDDD is pretty good for this, but we don't really know because people tend to be ashamed when they "fail" and stop reporting.
I am happy to share, my first time out with 4:3 I lost 12lbs in 6 weeks, I then went off plan for 2 weeks around the time of my birthday and had only a minor gain and got it off within 2 weeks, then my life got turned upside down and I was off plan for 15 weeks give or take, I gained approx 16lbs in that time, I was very very disappointed that the weight came back on so quickly I kept trying to get back to it and failing on my DD's in the end I gave up and switched to something else and started to get my head back in the right place, I came fully back to 4:3 2 weeks ago and again I find I am really struggling on DD's, I found it really really easy the first time round and now I really have to battle to get through the day. But I have lost 7lbs of my gain so that's keeping me motivated.
I just read the 5:2 book and Dr. Mosely suggests that although you really can't predict for any one person, you can expect to lose something like 7 pounds in 8 weeks following 5:2. I think this is about what I'd lose on it ... if I started it at my current weight, two 500 calorie down days would give me about a 3,000 calorie deficit a week, which is almost a pound, assuming no exercise and that my up day calories were right at maintenance. So it would be a bit slower, but the tradeoff is that it is a bit easier.
I've lost an average of 1.25 pounds a week on JUDDD, including some breaks and not doing it perfectly all the time. Most of the bigger loss months were closer to start as you would expect. :)
Carly, didn't you try 5:2 at your goal (at the time)?
I have read many many posts regarding 5:2 on various forums and the general consensus is it prob works for about 8 weeks and then stops and most then have to move to 4:3 or really start restricting on UD's and exercising like mad things, I'm a lazier type of dieter.
When I was younger, any diet modification resulted in weight loss. I think I would have done great on 5:2 with a little exercise thrown in. Now? Not so much. While I did 5:2 for five weeks and lost weight, I had to restrict my calorie intake to 1200 calories on my 5 days and 500 on two. ADF is just so much easier and satisfying.
I don't believe those numbers...
I did 5:2 twice at my same JUDDD numbers, and some days were lower, none higher. All I was able to do was maintain. I don't see how 2000 calories a day, plus two 500 cal days could result in much weight loss. Maybe over a long period of time, possibly, but not much (for me).
If you maintained on 2000 calories a day, and had two 500 calorie days, you'd have a 3000 calorie deficit in a week, all other things being equal, and a pound is 3,500 calories. But there are so many variables that affect that calculation, and to make it even more imprecise up day calories are not counted on 5:2, so people might eat less or more than their maintenance calories on their up days.
From 2/6/13-3/6/13 I did 4:3 and lost 3 more pounds.
I did 5:2 from 3/7/13- 7/6/13 and lost nothing but my high bounce got higher by about 3 pounds.
I went back to EOD rotations on 7/7/13 and I have lost 3.3 pounds- basically the bounce up I got on 5:2.
5:2 is popular among men in the UK (possibly because Dr Mosely popularised it so it has less stigma than other weight loss programmes). Without a gender breakdown, it's possible that men are losing more with 5:2 and that's influencing the reported losses?
Even in the City/financial district of London, chain restaurants advertise their 5:2 meals with an A-board outside. (which may say something about their customer base).
I am hoping that 5:2 will be the perfect maintenance method for me. I feel so good from my Down Days that I don't want to give them(or the SIRT1action) up, but I can see that the added flexibility might be nice.
That's in the future, though. Right now, I am loving EOD.
I was thinking 5:2 might also be nice short term for anyone needing a break from EOD for a while or if you need a little flexibility for life events and OK with maintaining/losing more slowly on a short-term basis. :)
What is ADF?
ADF=Alternate Day Fasting
My mum has lost 21 pounds on 5:2 in 6 weeks. She has about 50lb total to lose.
She has been 'loosely' watching her calories on the 5 days but still drinking alcohol and eating 500 or less the other two days.
She has lost more than me and I am doing EOD and she is 30 years older - not fair!!!! lol
Congratulations to your mom! You're right, it's no fair that she's losing faster. But we're all so different.
Just an update on this, the official 5:2 diet forum ( the MM one) seems to be reflecting a lot of people who either aren't seeing any weight loss after several weeks or have stalled for long periods of time, I knew those average numbers were skewed.!
you may gain 2 pounds or more after switching to 5:2 but it's all water you won't gain fat while you're cutting 3000 calories a week...it still about calories in vs calories out ..
if you gain any fat on 5:2 then check again either your calories or your thyroid
Also, I think 5:2 says 2000/500 and that is just 2 DDs a week. My JUDDD numbers are 1550/312 with 3 or 4 DDs per week. For me that is a huge calorie difference. I maintain beautifully on 5:2 with UDs 1700-1400/300, but 5:2 woukd not cause me to lose as written.

Likely features and costs of mature biomass ethanol technology
Likely features and costs of mature biomass ethanol technology Analysis is undertaken motivated by the question: What are the likely features and cost of a facility producing ethanol from cellulosic biomass at a level of maturity comparable to a refinery? This question is considered with respect to cost reductions arising from increased scale, lower-cost feedstock, and process improvements in pretreatment and biological conversion, but not other process steps. An advanced technology scenario is developed that represents our estimate of the most likely features of mature biomass ethanol technology. A best-parameter scenario, intended to be indicative of the potential for R&D-driven cost reductions, is also developed based on the best values for individual process parameters reported in the literature. Both scenarios involve large plants. Feedstock costs are taken to be $38.60/delivered dry t for the advanced scenario and $34.00/delivered dry t for the best-parameter scenario. Projected selling prices, including operating costs and capital recovery corresponding to a 14.2% return on investment, are 50 cents/gal for the advanced technology case and 34 cents/gal for the best-parameter case. These are markedly lower than the 118 cents/gal selling price projected for base-case technology, with the largest share of cost reductions due to improved conversion technology. Key conversion technology improvements include, in order of more »

Assurant, Inc. (NYSE:AIZ)
Focuses on building & maintaining a portfolio of insurance businesses, leveraging a set of core capabilities, identifying & adapting to evolving market needs & centralizing certain key functions in the Corporate segment to achieve economies of scale.
As of July 17, 2007 five of Assurant's executives have come under SEC scrutiny, including the CEO (Robert Pollock) and CFO (Philip Camacho), for abuse of "loss mitigation insurance products". Further information on the case can be found here:http://www.forbes.com/2007/07/17/assurant-insurance-sec-markets-equity-cx_er_0717marketsxx_print.htmlIn response to the investigation by the SEC the stock has been downgraded from "buy" to "hold" by KeyBanc Capital Markets, with KeyBanc reasoning being: "We believe AIZ management has demonstrated strong leadership in the past," Malone said. "However, the circumstances surrounding the investigation are likely to depress the stock in the near term, in our opinion. Thus, we believe investors should not take new positions in the stock until some resolution has been determined." Short this stock until the SEC finishes its investigation (and in all likelihood fines AIZ), then buy the stock on the cheap; it's a cash cow of a company.

We had a studio apartment and it worked out well. We were able to buy a few breakfast items, snacks, and beverages. Small kitchenette did not have a stove, but had a microwave and all the needed dishes and utensils. The room was cleaned every day and was spotless. The location was great for us because we were near the train station, as a matter of fact we walked from the train station to the hotel (about a 15 minute brisk walk). We really loved the little balcony for our evening glass of vino. - Anonymous
due to changes in our flight, we arrived 15 hours before the check in. the receptionist offerd us to use the room for no extra charge. in general, the staff was very helpful and kind. the room was very comfortable and very clean. - Anonymous
convenience to S and U bahn and tram. - Tom
The staff was very friendly but some appeared a bit reserved.
The location is great, it took about 20min to walk to the central station/city (the neighborhood is also very good).
If you prefer the metro the nearest station is just down the street.
The parking area is great; they charge 15euro/day.
It is a parking district a bit less expensive just across the street from the hotel. But the opening hours for buying a ticket were a bit confusing. (Still it's an open area so you can drive in/out - Anonymous
Great location on the Orainenburg Strasse at FrederichStrasse - Right on the old border between East/West. Easy Metro from Central Station to Hotel. Great bar and the best bartender Philip who made our stay very enjoyable! Great Austrian Restaurant adjacent to the Hotel. - Mark
The staff and the service were very fine. I saw the gentleman behind the front desk offer to help another guest locate a place to buy some rare auto parts! Very helpful, cordial, friendly, and warm. The location of this spot is pretty much perfect if you want to be in Mitte or up near Prenzlauerberg, it is a perfect spot if you want to wander into bookshops, boutiques, the local parks, or get on the metro and explore other neighborhoods. Such a great alternative to the big corporate business ho - Anonymous
Fantastic central location, within walking distance of all major sites and plenty of restaurants and bars in the immediate vicinity. The hotel was impeccably clean and the staff couldn't have been nicer. All in all it has been one of the best hotels I have stayed in for a long while, we couldn't fault anything. - Gary
Excellent hotel. It was in the best position possible for seeing Berlin, the staff could not have been more courteous or helpful and the rooms, bar, lobby, public loos' were all we could have wished for and more. Tip. Swipe your room card in the lift and it automatically selects you floor. - David
I thought the decor of the hotel was wonderful as was the the service of the staff - Deborah
The Casa Camper Hotel has thought of everything. It good sized & very comfortable attractive rooms with large windows looking over Berlin. It's very functional bathrooms. The 24 hour relaxed dining / lounge / self serve bar area which covers the top floor & where all food & drink except alcohol is included in the room tarriff. It's a very well designed, eco friendly, functional hotel with great views from all rooms. - Anonymous
The location was superb. The apartment was really well laid out and everything you could want was there. The sound proofing was superb and we got five great nights of sound sleep. The atmosphere in the restaurants close by was great. It was 5 mins to the Berlin cathedral and the Museum Island. The area was spotless and safe and the S Bahn was on your doorstep. It's not cheap, especially on a Saturday night, but the accommodation made the holiday for us and I would highly recommend it! - Anonymous
Absolutely excellent hotel, which is definitely on 5 stars level, helpful staff, ideally clean and nice designed rooms. Generally, the hotel was much better than expected to be.
If I'll be again in Berlin, I'd stay there again and highly recommend this hotel for others.
The only weak point is the "arty-farty" restaurant with very short menu and the food is not specially tasty and definitely overpriced. But this is not big problem, because there are a lot of excellent restaurants for any taste - Anonymous

Industrial Gases Firms Bank on CO2 Capture Technologies
11:07 AM MDT | July 29, 2008 | Nancy Seewald
It is essential that any future greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction mandates allow chemical companies to continue use of coal as a source of power generation to prevent wide-scale switching to natural gas-fired utilities, industry executives say. This concern has turned the spotlight on increased development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies, and industrial gases firms are making significant investments to prove that their CCS technologies are effective and financially viable. Gases firms say their technologies, particularly oxy-combustion, are more...

December 17, 2014
Just one week after Dothan's downtown redevelopment authority was given $350,000 by the city commission, they've put the money to use.
Members of the downtown redevelopment board announced they are purchasing a piece of property to help clean up the area.
The Seact Building on East Main Street in downtown Dothan is the first property to be purchased by Dothan's downtown redevelopment board.
Its dilapidated look has made it an eye soar for downtown revelers says, the boards chairman former mayor James Grant.
"We will be taking that down and we will have a green area on that side of Main Street... Behind that we will have parking... I think parking is very important downtown," says Grant.
A commodity that board members say may help the Old Bank Building on north Foster Street sell, and eventually open up for business of some kind.
Several buyers have lined up, but lack of parking has made them turn away.
Another building board members have similar plans for is the old jail adjacent to the opera house.
DRA Member, Letetia Jackson says "The old jail is not in great condition and we believe it will enhance the opera house and its beauty by tearing the building down and being able to have better access to the building."
But buying to tear down is not the only thing the board looks to do.
The board is also looking at trying to renovate some rundown property's if possible, especially historical ones.
And board members have also pledged their support for a new library.
Sharon Baker, supports new library, says "A new library can be a foundation for downtown and it should be the cornerstone of this community because it is about education."
Whatever the cornerstone of downtown redevelopment is, those tasked with kick starting redevelopment efforts say they'll do their best to pump life back into downtown.
In addition to purchasing more property the city has also obtained a facade grant to help property owners fix up the visual aspects of their buildings.
It gives them 50 percent of the money needed.

Wallenberg family
The Wallenberg family (known as The Wallenbergs or simply Wallenbergs) is a prominent Swedish family and financial dynasty, renowned as bankers, industrialists, politicians, bureaucrats, diplomats and philanthropists. The Wallenbergs are present in most large Swedish industrial groups, like Ericsson, Electrolux, ABB, SKF, Atlas Copco and more. In 1990 and subsequent years, the "Wallenberg sphere" controlled nearly 1/3 of the GDP of Sweden.
The most famous of the Wallenbergs, Raoul Wallenberg, a diplomat, worked in Budapest, Hungary, during World War II to rescue Jews from the Holocaust. Between July and December 1944, he issued protective passports and housed Jews, saving tens of thousands of Jewish lives.[1]
The oldest known member of the Wallenberg family is Per Hansson (1670–1741) who, in 1692, married Kerstin Jacobsdotter Schuut (1671–1752). Their son, Jakob Persson Wallberg (1699–1758) married twice. The children of his first marriage called themselves Wallberg and those of his second called themselves Wallenberg.[2] Jakob Persson Wallberg was the great-grandfather of André Oscar Wallenberg who, in 1856, founded Stockholms Enskilda Bank, the predecessor of today's Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken.
André Oscar Wallenberg's son Knut Agathon Wallenberg took over as CEO of Stockholms Enskilda Bank in 1886. Like many other Wallenberg relatives, Knut Agathon Wallenberg was also involved in Swedish politics and diplomacy becoming Minister for Foreign Affairs 1914–1917, and member of the Riksdags first chamber (Parliament of Sweden) 1907–1919. In 1916, new legislation made it more difficult for banks to own shares in industrial companies on a long-term basis. Investor was formed as an investment part of Stockholms Enskilda Bank.
Knut Agathon Wallenberg's younger brother Marcus Wallenberg (senior) carried on the tradition and took over as the bank's CEO in 1911, replacing his older brother who was appointed Stockholms Enskilda Bank chairman of the board.
Jacob Wallenberg, eldest son of Marcus Wallenberg (senior), became the bank's CEO after Joseph Nachmanson died in 1927, joined by younger brother Marcus Wallenberg (junior) as the bank's deputy CEO. In 1938, Knut Agathon Wallenberg died. He had no children. Marcus Wallenberg (senior) was appointed Stockholms Enskilda Bank chairman of the board.
The fourth generation of Wallenbergs joined the family business in 1953, including heir apparent Marc Wallenberg, eldest son of Marcus Wallenberg (junior), who became a deputy CEO at Stockholms Enskilda Bank in 1953, before taking over as CEO in 1958. After a power struggle between Jacob Wallenberg and his younger brother Marcus Wallenberg (junior), Jacob Wallenberg resigned from the board of directors in 1969.
The resignation opened a seat on the bank's board of directors to Peter Wallenberg (senior), younger son of Marcus Wallenberg (junior). Marcus Wallenberg (junior) pushed through a merger agreement between Stockholms Enskilda Bank and rival Skandinaviska Banken in 1971. Soon after, tragedy struck when Marc Wallenberg committed suicide, observers suggested that the act came possibly because Marc Wallenberg felt himself inadequate to the task of leading what was to become the Scandinavia banking giant Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken. The merger went through in 1972.
Marcus Wallenberg (junior), and younger son Peter Wallenberg (senior), focused their interests on the family's investment companies, Investor and Providentia. Investor now became the family's new flagship business, and, under Marcus Wallenberg (juniors) leadership began actively promoting the restructuring of most of the industrial companies under its control, replacing board members and promoting younger CEO and other management.
Peter Wallenberg (senior) took over after Marcus Wallenberg (junior's) death in 1982. For many outsiders, the change in leadership marked a final moment in the family's more than 100-year dominance of the Swedish banking and industrial sectors. Yet Peter Wallenberg (senior) rose to the challenge, guiding Investor and Sweden's industry into a new era. In 1990, it was estimated that the family indirectly controlled one-third of the Swedish Gross National Product.[3] Peter Wallenberg (senior) stepped down from leadership of Investor in 1997.
In 2006, the fifth generation took over the Wallenberg sphere. Marcus Wallenberg, son of Marc Wallenberg, Jacob Wallenberg and Peter Wallenberg (junior) both sons of Peter Wallenberg (senior).
Modern business[edit]
The Wallenbergs have a very low-key public profile, eschewing conspicuous displays of wealth. The family motto is "Esse non Videri" (Latin for "To be, not to be seen").[4] Wallenbergs business empire is often referred to as the Wallenberg sphere, the Wallenberg sphere is a large group of companies where their investment company Investor or foundation asset management company FAM have the controlling interest.

Car combat games aren't new anymore. That being the case, new additions to the genre are pressed to come up with a strong gameplay model or have something to offer that other similar, older games haven't already done. Totaled! is a game that doesn't do any of this, and it even goes so far as to take the formula of wrecking cars and remove most of the fun from it. While weapons have become somewhat of a requirement in games of this type, there are none to be found here. What this leaves you to do is mindlessly smash into opponents, and while doing so may be fun in other similarly themed games, the frustratingly bad physics in Totaled! make the game a thoroughly unentertaining experience.
Totaled! is essentially a destruction derby. The game revolves around the career mode, in which you travel the world and enter a variety of contests that have a number of different goals. The most basic contest puts you in an arena to destroy as many opponents as you can in a set amount of time. Damaging other vehicles by smashing into them gets you points, and in some contests, amassing points is more important than survival. Other contests have you racing around a track while trying to stay ahead of the pack, or pulling off stunts for points. The variety of different contests are nice, but unfortunately the subpar control detracts from any fun these modes might have had going for them.
And that's exactly where Totaled! self-destructs--in how it controls. As you progress through the game, you'll unlock a number of different vehicles and tracks--all pretty standard stuff. Each car has a number of attributes that differentiate it from the others, but not one car handles very well. Each and every vehicle moves in such a way that can only be described as frustrating. Acceleration is so slow that even cars with high points in this category feel sluggish, and vehicles with poor acceleration are downright awful to drive. For the most part, you'll be trying to get up to speed and smash into other cars as you attempt to destroy them, so the inability to accelerate quickly becomes a problem right away. Once you have some speed going, you can pull off powerslides and other maneuvers to keep your car moving along, but one good hit on an opponent or other object and your speed will be drastically reduced, starting the bitter cycle all over again. Oftentimes, after hitting another car and coming to a standstill, opponents will pile up on you, and you won't be able to break free until an opening presents itself--this can take upward of 30 seconds, as the painfully unintelligent enemy AI tries to figure out how to move in any direction but forward. In these cases, the camera can get confused and more often than not will literally get caught inside a nearby car or spin wildly until it comes to rest behind you.
Even when you're moving along at a clipped rate, the cars seem as though they have all of their weight in the front end, so powerslides will cause the rear end of the vehicle to slip abnormally, extending the slides and making them difficult to control. Often, your front wheels will catch on the edge of a track or some other surface and send your car tumbling end over end, and this is where the odd distribution of weight becomes extremely apparent. When accidents like this occur, your car will frequently act like some strange gyroscope, spinning wildly on its front grill or hood. Even when this doesn't happen, the cartwheeling wrecks look and behave oddly to say the least.
In addition to the standard deathmatch-type destruction derby, there are battles for points, in which all entrants attempt to outdo each other by smashing into other cars and gaining more points than opponents. There are also races and stunt contests, in which you'll attempt to either come in first place or gain points by jumping through hoops or pulling off spectacular crashes (and landing on all four wheels). The stunt mode is pretty basic--you'll mostly spend your time driving erratically while trying to roll the car. This is the easiest way to rack up points quickly. Similarly to rolling your car in the stunt mode, there are easy-to-find exploits that will let you win other contests quickly. In the destruction derbies, the last car still driving is the winner. The easiest way to end up in this position is to drive around the arena and avoid all of the other cars until they destroy themselves, and then smash the last one standing. It's cheap, and it works every time. Other match types include single races where you have to clear a track with crates strewn about the tarmac, all while avoiding such abstract things as glowing red bowling pins that will destroy your car on contact. Still other matches act more like minigames and have you rolling barrels into target zones. There are also bus-jump contests, which consist merely of driving in a straight line and punching the nitro as you go up the ramp. None of this variety amounts to much when the game itself is so aggravating to play.
To make matters worse, Totaled! doesn't look very good either. All of the arenas you'll be playing in are thoroughly uninspired, consisting mostly of sparsely populated open arenas. Some stand out as being more interesting--the football field immediately comes to mind--but even these don't look very good when compared to other games. Considering the Xbox's capabilities, it's not unfair to say that Totaled! doesn't tax the system one iota. The car models are decent and do visibly take damage--they lose fenders and paneling and eventually explode when they've been damaged beyond repair. But that's the high point of the visuals in the game.
The sound in the game is probably the strongest category in Totaled!, but even it falls short. The soundtrack stands head and shoulders above the sound effects and announcement, with a strong variety of punk rock from bands such as Bracket and Face To Face, as well as the occasional odd jazzy tune. As far as the actual sound effects are concerned, they're mostly run-of-the-mill engine and tire noises, broken up by nearly satisfactory explosions and impact noises. The announcer--while mostly serviceable--at times sounds like he's biting at the furthest reaches of street slang in order to narrate the onscreen chaos.
Totaled! also supports up to four players in the multiplayer mode, which basically consists of variations on the career and arcade mode arenas. If the game played any better this would be more of a bonus, but as it stands, it's a decent multiplayer option in a game that isn't fun to play.
There was a time when vehicular combat games consisted entirely of destruction derby games, but the arrival of the Twisted Metal and Vigilante 8 series upped the ante and forced other car combat games to work a little harder in order to survive. The old destruction derby formula might still be a good one if done correctly, but Totaled! serves as the perfect example of how bad a game of this variety can be if it's done wrong. Totaled! falls short on all fronts, but the exceptionally bad physics and gameplay rob the game of any hope of being something worth your time.
