The Pink Sapphire.


The Pink Sapphire. Catching yesterday the flue make me realize how intense and ‘workaholic’ last weeks where. Only to finding in horoscope that the Mercury who has been heavy “associate” to me for the last couples weeks, that Planet of business and negotiations’, make me realize how wide were the others people pretensions. (The Iran, Autoeuropa, CIC and KazMunaiGas, Cisco and “Norway”, France and two streams, Irish vote and Opel, the Big Taicho in “finances”, etc.). Now, this morning, I feel less stressed or “under the gun”. The black cloud lifts and the sun beams down, warming and cheering me (like that fox) up. Instead of worried mind, I have a more confident one. Instead of assuming the worst about others, I give each (Lemberg cats) person enough ‘pano p’ra manga’ to reveal theirs true personality, motives and character. By doing this, I’m less judgmental and a lot more relaxed. Instead of taking a defensive stance, I’m willing to assume a more open position. Something likes the ‘we are bachelors baby’. In this way, in my “walking about” I don’t need to win, control or dominate. Or be like that “ex parrot” from Monty Python. Just try to peacefully coexist. Already is good job to don’t know what everyone of the seven billion other people who live in this planet want. But in same time, I got crystal clear picture of what policy makers and CV brokers want. For instance, this Monday morning. These snooty professionals could turn up theirs noses at my, forever “amateur” efforts. Okay. Than, come back to accert ourselves through my “professional” (see abo-o-ove) and personal associations. Immediately, in same instant, the communications (I.e. the my comments, explanations, remarks, observations, annotations, clarifications and/or interpretations) – tend to concern corporate business and Insurance programmes. Like this, more later trip to ransoming my trousers. That, strictly business purpose, where the intellectual interests turns towards the “secrets”, “mysteries”, “science”, “investigation” and sex. However, com intuições mais prescisas, percepções profundas e de aspirações claras. To don’t letting them to spoil my enjoyment of a favorite hobby. (The telling to Kuchma “Я тебе зроблю”, or who are in deed the Barroso and Solana, or how the tycoon Mittal оказался not in the Tony Blair, not in the face representing AIST in Brussels, not in the Trichet, but in my, the V.A. Glugovsky pocket.) Better control of financial security, earning the power – is okay. So, who’s the winner?

Baosteel seeks stake in Anglo mine. Sun Oct 4, 2009 4:09pm BST. LONDON (Reuters) - Chinese steel and iron ore group Baosteel has proposed to pay 1 billion pounds for a 30 percent stake in Anglo American's (AAL.L: Quote, Profile, Research) huge Minas Rio iron ore mine in Brazil, according to a report on Sunday. The Observer said any deal with Baosteel could help Anglo fend off suitor Xstrata (XTA.L: Quote, Profile, Research), which last week was told to make a formal bid for Anglo by October 20 or walk away for six months. A spokesman for Anglo declined to comment on the Observer report but reiterated the firm would consider the introduction of an investor to Minas Rio as it moves to the second phase of development of the mine.

Mittal set to quit $20bn Indian steel project. October 4 2009 19:33. Lakshmi Mittal is close to pulling out of a $20bn plan to build two large steel plants in India – the centrepiece of efforts by one of the world’s most prominent industrialists to expand in the country of his birth. Delays in persuading farmers and others to sell the land he needs for the developments in the states of Jharkand and Orissa are “unacceptable”, the chairman and main owner of the ArcelorMittal steel company told the FT. “If we cannot make progress in these two sites we will have to abandon the idea of starting the projects there and look for other places in India for our expansion,” Mr Mittal said. Although Mr Mittal said he was still committed to building at least one steel plant in India, abandoning his plan to have two sites producing between them about 24m tonnes of steel a year by around 2015 would be a big blow. It would delay by several years his plans to have a sizeable presence in India. Mr Mittal, whose company is the world’s biggest steelmaker but has very little presence in India, said people there had to be “educated” into supporting gradual industrialisation, including the need to build new steel plants on agricultural land. Persuading individuals to release land for development has long been a political problem for India, leading to government efforts to make it easier for industrialists to buy land. Last year, Tata Motors had to move its plant for its new Nano car from West Bengal to Gujarat after difficulties in getting approval for land purchases. India is well behind China in terms of steelmaking. Last year, it produced 55m tonnes. slightly more than a tenth of Chinese production. In spite of this, India is already the world’s fifth biggest country in terms of steel output. Mr Mittal, whose company has been working on its planned Indian plants for more than two years, thinks that by 2020 India will be making four times as much steel as it does now. Even though this year world steel output is likely to be 10-15 per cent down on last year as a result of the recession, in India 2009 production is expected to be well ahead of last year’s. ArcelorMittal said that if it decided to abandon plans for the two sites, for which preparatory work has been under way for two years, the financial effect would be “negligible” since no land had so far been acquired and no building work done.

Aviva plans partial float of Delta Lloyd in November. Aviva, Britain's second-biggest insurer, said it expected the partial floatation of Delta Lloyd, its Dutch unit, to be completed in November.Published: 9:59AM BST 05 Oct 2009. The company said in August it planned to bring the business to market when market conditions allowed. Aviva aims to use the proceeds to restructure its balanace sheet and "explore other opportunities for growth". Delta Lloyd said the IPO would "provide the opportunity to consider consolidation options which the Delta Lloyd Group foresees in the Netherlands and Belgium". It will list on the Euronext Amsterdam exchange. Aviva will sell a minority holding but gave no indication about how much of its stake it plans to sell. Reuters, citing sources familiar with the IPO plans, reported that Aviva wanted to raise around €1bn (£910m) through the sale of a 25pc stake. This suggests a €4bn valuation for the business as a whole.
