Aluminium smelter or 8% of Consulterra, Hortaglora and Techniman Portuguesa. Barroso and the previous such big occurrence in 2005. For times now, I don’t speak about myself and of my life fixed, set and established (comes from “establishment”) by the European Union. The life when you keep amusing yourself with a lot of nothingness. With stuff that had nothing to do with you. Maybe, to just shield yourself from frequent deep paranoia and stress. When, just to think about the “vital” meeting with Monday (?) “Board of Trustees”, - I enter in state of acute anxiousness and depression. The experience, some times help. The learned cinism too. Indicating that if your pressure (to watching the euro-camels instruction called Man of fire) is jumping up, exposing and representing the exactly which ‘patricios de futuro de nossa civilisacao’ are dedicatedly working on it, - I’m starting to know why and by whom I haven’t been living even nearby, up to my world. And I don’t care if the ‘Brits got talents’ cry on shoulder of Ashia Lancaster – or not. Indicate the Smushkin for fucking Almohads barroso and Solana – or not. Designing the ship (Shuttle ?) full of booty called “One trillion’ bankers”, - or not.

Porque Barroso passou de gustar chinocas: Sinochem Buys 40% of Brazil Offshore Field From Statoil for $3.1 Billion. May 22, 2010. Sinochem Group, China’s biggest chemicals trader, agreed yesterday to pay $3 billion to Statoil ASA for 40 percent of the Brazilian offshore Peregrino field. Sinochem last year agreed to buy Emerald Energy Plc to boost revenue from oil and gas operations by tapping wells in Syria and Colombia. ‘Profited Well’ The price works out to about $15.4 a barrel, compared with the $7.2 a barrel Statoil paid when it took full control in 2008, he said. The field, 85 kilometers (53 miles) offshore Rio de Janeiro, has an estimated 460 million barrels of recoverable oil, spokeswoman Mari Dotterud said on Oct. 20. ‘Better Than Fair’ Statoil will keep 60 percent ownership and remain the operator of the field, which is set to start production in early 2011. Brazil will continue to form a “key part” of the company’s international strategy, and Statoil will explore further opportunities in the region, it said. This stake sale will reduce Statoil’s equity production guiding for 2012 by 40,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day to 2.06 million to 2.16 million, the company said. Equity output was 1.962 million barrels of oil equivalent a day in 2009, while booked reserves of oil and gas totaled 5.4 billion barrels. The transaction is subject to government approvals in Brazil and China.

Losing control. Director General of major international companies for the first time since 2004 in the rating of the most important external factors have put technology above human factors specialists have found IBM. In vain, the experts say. Times. 21.05.2010, 91 (2609)
CEO Job with each passing year becomes more difficult - the conclusion made by researchers IBM , published the results of the next global survey of major international companies. Harder to such an extent that almost half of respondents - acting CEOs - who question their own ability to cope. But just two years ago, CEOs worried about completely different things, in particular the need for change, and doubters were much smaller. IBM asks the leaders of world business since 2004 every two years. Results 2010 somewhat surprised and representatives of IBM. Even the main conclusions of the study are unexpected, said Kirill Korniliev , CEO of IBM in Russia and CIS. One might assume that a fairly high places in the ranking requirements CEOs to members of the management team will and ability to articulate and defend their position ( 4 th) and to think in terms of the global economy ( the third), and even high business ethics ( 2 - e). But the fact that in the first place will be creative, no one expected, said Cornelius. Under the creativity of business leaders understand, including the ability to abandon well-established notions of industries, markets, competitors, even on major sources of revenue. Director General expects that up to a quarter earnings over the next five years, their company will receive from completely new sources.
Researchers have identified a total number of surveyed companies that consider themselves to be better prepared to work in difficult circumstances. Their expectations are even higher - 30% of revenue from new sources. Over the past five years, sources of income of the respondents changed only by 15%, and the most advanced of them - only 20%. If in 2004, 84% of respondents believed the market the most important external factor affecting the work of the company, but now these only 55%. Everyone understands that the market may hinder the development of the company, but justify the slow growth of market forces just do not get, says Cornelius. Or take another example. Two-thirds of the inhabitants of the land already have mobile phones. From a technological point of view of the mobile phone can easily replace any means of payment. So inevitably the union of telecommunication and banking sectors, said Korniliev, and companies - and well-established players and newcomers - will have to find a new place in the new market. Impact Technologies, in a survey of CEOs has risen: this factor has moved from sixth place to second, but the role of the ability to work with people dropped from second to fourth. Korniliev explains the result of the crisis. From those who were not willing to change, already disposed: now the resistance of managerial structure is much lower, and therefore, issues related to managing people, lost their sharpness. Even the most sophisticated technology does not enable management to better work with people, says Claudio Fernandez Araos, partner of the international headhunting companies Egon Zehnder and the author of " Choosing the strongest - as a leader to take major decisions about people. " Career managers of large companies depend on people they hire for your team. Decision-making skills related to people who are at a very primitive level, even the leaders of major companies, distressed Fernandez Araos. Most of the appointments, he said, are based on superficial reasons. People can spend months on the discussion of the investment project on construction of new factories, and then decide on the director for five minutes. Here's the paradox, the expert concluded: in all that relates to subordinates, leaders often take the weak, even wrong decisions, but feel quite comfortable.

INTERNET OUTAGE Problems hit German websites. Around half of websites with the German .de suffix were unavailable for more than an hour on Wednesday.

KIDNAPPED BANKER'S WIFE: Maria Boergel's family in emotional appeal for her release. It’s now known why the family is growing more and more fearful: BILD can reveal the screw up during the money transfer! The ransom money had been left on the A7 motorway, but two men working for the road maintenance authority mistakenly removed it.
Recap: Last Wednesday at 3.30pm, Sparkasse bank boss Thomas Bögerl drove his car to the scheduled location for the transfer. At a temporary exit on the A7 close to Nietheim in North-Rhine Westphalia, the abductors had hoisted a German flag measuring 155 by 88 cm as a marker. This is where Bögerl left a black bin bag – contents: €300,000. Contrary to the kidnappers’ instructions however, the banker had also notified the police, who were watching the entire scene from a hidden location. Is this when they were first noticed? Some 16 hours passed with the bag remaining untouched. It isn’t until 7.30am the next morning that a car suddenly approached the scene. It belonged to road maintenance authorities. An employee got out, scooped up the bin bag and heaved it onto the cargo area. Then the car drove off.
Police quickly returned the bag to the transfer location, but the kidnappers never showed.
