Fun with Dick and Jane



Fun with Dick and Jane People who work in City, and whom I call “Brotherhood of City” are different. For example, exist engineers, cleaners, kings, compositors, etc. and that people with huge accet of cinism who proudly call themselves speculators. At times they very pompous of this. Personally, I was blaming them in the past a lot. For many reasons. Such as carrier, personal life, my wrong nose, etc. All politics like the Barroso do the same. “Fighting” with theirs noisiness, theirs amazing force to deviate and draw my attention away with apparent irrelevant factors from the issues ought to be higher priority, only to do me sick and old, at my eyes – was my “Mein Kampf”.(I remember gallons of ink expended in the containers subject). In this way insisting that objectives may be important for me more than theirs real value. If true, recognizing that the not a real objects (i.e. my Jet, my shoes, etc.) make this boogers with arms and legs, that have followed me around (i.e. hitting in my head) – mysteriously and suddenly disappear. Together with Evraz и Русал, Blue Danube, Pancho da cello, and me with my cheap Cesil.

Photo by bluedanubeholiday.com. The sailors from the Bulgarian ship "Nayden Kirov" have saved over tourists from burning German vessel. This was announced by Bulgarian River Shipping Jsc on Saturday. The accident happened around midnight on Friday after a German river cruise ship caught fire in the Serbian part of the Danube near the city of Novi Sad where it was anchored. The Bulgarian ship brought the over 150 passengers to the shore where they were helped by ambulances, and then took part in the extinguishing of the fire which lasted until dawn on Saturday. Because of the inconvenient spot where the German vessel had been anchored, the Serbian fire-fighters had to use the Bulgarian ship as a platform from which to put out the fire.

Soprano in £100k cello fall. An opera singer fell off stage into the orchestra, damaging a cello worth more than £100,000. Puerto Rican soprano Ana Maria Martinez, who was performing in the opera Rusalka at the Glyndebourne Festival in East Sussex, got her foot caught in some scenery and fell back into the pit. Grammy award-winning Ms Martinez was taken to hospital for a check-up, but is not thought to be badly hurt. An understudy filled in for the rest of the performance. Audience member Adam Drew said: "It was right at the end of Act One after Rusalka kisses the prince. He says to her, 'Please don't leave me' and she fell off the stage. We thought it was part of the show." The cello is now being repaired.

Centrica in final battle for Venture Production. August 23, 2009 Centrica’s five-month pursuit of Venture Production reaches make-or-break point this week with the Aberdeen oil and gas company making a last-ditch effort to block the £1.3 billion bid. The European Commission said on Friday that it would not object to a takeover, clearing the way for Centrica, owner of British Gas, to buy shares. It snapped up another 1.7% of Venture immediately, taking its direct holding to nearly 32%, and has received pledges to sell from investors holding 10% of the group. Market sources say Centrica will tomorrow try to buy the remaining 8% needed to secure control. Mike Wagstaff, chief executive of Venture and a fierce opponent of the 845p-a-share offer, has one last card to play. He is expected to send “withdrawal notices” next week to the 10% of investors who have agreed to tender their shares but have not yet sold. Under the takeover code, investors have up to 21 days after the first closing date of an offer to renege on a pledge to sell. That deadline is September 3. The offer period expires on September 14. Centrica’s bid is conditional on it obtaining simple majority control — 50% plus one share. Wagstaff has to convince investors that the 845p offer is too low. Since Centrica first bought shares in the company in March, Venture’s peer group has risen 20% while its own share price has been flat, partly because of the uncertainty over the bid. The oil price has risen two thirds to $73.89 a barrel over the same period.

Football star and mother stabbed. Last Updated: Saturday, 22 August 2009, 22:06 GMT. West Ham United footballer Calum Davenport and his mother have been stabbed in an attack at their home. The 26-year-old defender is undergoing surgery on both legs after being set upon at his family home in Bedford. Police have launched an investigation and his injuries have been described by doctors as "serious". A spokeswoman for Bedfordshire Police said: "Police were called to Springfield Avenue in Kempston at 5am after a report of a person being stabbed. "A 26-year-old man was taken to hospital for treatment for serious injury which is not thought to be life-threatening at this time. A 19-year-old man was arrested shortly after the incident in connection with the assault." West Ham released a statement on the stabbing which read: "West Ham United can confirm that Calum Davenport was being treated in hospital on Saturday afternoon after an incident late on Friday night. "The 26-year-old defender and his mum both suffered stab wounds at home in Bedford. His mum is recovering while Calum underwent surgery this morning and his injuries were described as serious by doctors. The club's medical team are in contact with hospital staff. "The thoughts of everyone at West Ham are with Calum and his family and, due to the ongoing police investigation, no further information will be released at this time." The 26-year-old is a former England Under-21 international, who cost the Hammers £3million when he joined them from Tottenham during the summer of 2007. Bedford-born Davenport spent a spell on loan at Premier League rivals Sunderland last season and has also been loaned out to Watford. The centre-back started his career at Coventry and has also played on loan at Southampton and Norwich.
