Alfa Romeo considering North American plant
2007-12-12 18:37:00 Alfa Romeo considering North American plant Fiat Group CEO Sergio Marchionne has revealed that Alfa Romeo is considering building a production plant in North America. The Alfa Romeo brand is slated to make its return to the U.S. market in late 2009. Marchionne said the decision to build a plant in North America is being considered because of a favorable exchange rate. "Mid to long term, I have no doubt we will have to produce in the NAFTA area to sell at a profit in the U.S.," Marchionne told Automotive News Europe. "When, where, in which volumes is still to be determined." Marchionne also predicted that Alfa's U.S. operations would be profitable in its third or fourth year. At launch, Alfa Romeo will only offer the 8C Competizione, but plans to follow with the 159 sedan, Brea 2+2 coupe and Spider two-seater. Alfa Romeo just named Luca De Meo as CEO.

Getting Out of Addiction: Basic Considerations
2007-12-09 14:51:00 I had a friend who was once addicted to ?shabu? or poor man?s cocaine. I have seen how his health deteriorated, and how he became mentally demented. He was forced to abandon his budding career in marketing because of his addiction problem. What is worst -he lost his wife and daughter in the process. A typical story huh. Drug addiction and alcoholism are ills that continue to plague our modern society. These types of addictions know no bound or societal standing. They scourge both the poor and the rich. In spite of government efforts to eradicate the root of these problems there are still many who fell victim in this vise and needing complete drug rehab.How does one gets out of this rut? Here at least three basic factors that may help in the process of rehahabilitaion:I believe that the first step is recognition that one has this problem. As any other life?s problem, solving begins on the willingness to admit that there is a problem needing correction. Acceptance opens the...

Brewers Acquire Torres; He Considers Retiring
2007-12-08 19:07:00 UPDATE, 12-8-07 at 12:06pm: Seems this story isn't over. Torres is contemplating retirement, in which case the Brewers would probably lose the two prospects for nothing. Torres will talk it over with his family and take a few days to decide. FROM 12-7-07 at 2:16pm: According to Tom Haudricourt, the Brewers have acquired reliever Salomon Torres for minor league relievers Marino Salas and Kevin Roberts. Torres turns 36 in March. He threw a monstrous 280 innings in relief over 2004-2006, so it's no surprise his elbow started barking in 2007. His strikeout rate in '07 was actually a career high, but his groundball rate decreased and he allowed a lot more home runs and hits than usual. Torres makes $3.2MM in '08 and has a $3.75MM club option for '09. Haudricourt actually wrote the Brewers' top ten prospect list for Baseball America, so believe him when he says Salas and Roberts are good arms. Will the Pirates keep dealing? It's known that reliev...

Singaporeans Considered Themselves "Western"
2007-12-08 04:32:00 I think some do especially those Asians who are married to westerners. They immediately 'act' like one. Others who work with or have western friends do put up an act like they're better than everyone else sorta attitude. But hey, I did experienced and got that vibe from those 'western-asian wannabes' as well though.However, I do think Singaporeans consider themselves as modern and individualistic first before anything. They think and act in a modern way to survive and keep up with trends of globalisation and with the global/local situations/crisis. They think for themselves and their immediate families, trying to improve their standard of living over time.There is no need to try to become "western" though some still think that being considered as "western" in behaviour, speech and thinking represents superiority. Most people don't. Of course, "western" by its term is vague. It does not signify all positive things. In common consensus, it refers to another ethnic group, the whi...

What to Consider to Invest in the year 2008?
2007-12-07 18:47:00 As I personally see US$ weakening and global economy slowing down, I would think investments that do well under such scenario are worth considering:1. Gold (invest some for "insurance" purpose), can invest in Gold ETF, Gold Fund. 2. UK Traded Endowment (smoothening of returns benefit, means the returns you get would not be much affected by volatility of the stock markets). Based on past record, annual returns of 6% to 8% are pretty attractive, also sterling pounds is possible to benefit if US$ weakens.3. Raise Cash Level. Personally think people should consider building up cash in Opportunity Fund. My current Opportunity Fund is 30% of my total investible fund/assets.4. Stock markets might be near end of bull market in year 2008. I think one should reduce one's risk by investing less and less money into stocks as markets move higher. (not the other way round).5. With inflation going up, real assets, such as properties in Singapore should continue to stay firm in year 2008, barring ...
A's May Consider Bonds
2007-12-07 16:21:00 It was suggested yesterday that the Cardinals had a little bit of interest in free agent Barry Bonds. Not so, according to Bernie Miklasz of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Miklasz was told a while back by team owner Bill DeWitt that it wasn't happening. However, Susan Slusser's article this morning indicates the A's will consider signing Bonds. Billy Beane recently indicated he was leaning toward playing to win in '08, so Bonds makes sense. Slusser talked to a Major League exec who said he'd be shocked if it didn't happen. Slusser's industry source says two other teams have expressed interest, and Bonds' agent said he's talking to teams from both leagues. Any guesses? It's known that the Rangers, Twins, Mariners, and Tigers aren't interested. showad();

At first, the WSJ notices the Ferrari's beautiful, candy red looks but notes this show is all about green and then asks what have they got that's green, to which Maurizio replies; thank you for asking me that, we are very sensitive to this point and we have to be and then this;We are thinking and moving in the direction of ethanol to make ethanol a part of our, basically possibility, we are considering seriously about that....ah, his English is not great but I think the message is clear.

Condo Considerations
2007-12-01 16:20:00 Considering buying a condo? Below are some questions/considerations to keep in mind. Condos are a bit different in that there are unique things to consider and weigh before making a decision. -What are the monthly association dues? Not only will your lender calculate the cost into your monthly payment, it's also important to ask what the fees include -Does the developer still handle the management? This is especially important when considering a new condo. After the management passes from developer to homeowners association(which is inevitable) fees can increase since the developer is no longer shouldering any of the cost! -How do the monthly dues compare to nearby condo complexes? Just as you wouldn't want to pay more than market value, why would you want to pay more for services than nearby neighbors are? -What is the condition of the association, including if there are reserves in place for maintenance? -What is the percentage of renters/owne... |
