2008-08-14 15:09:00 Increases in CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases caused by human activities such as travel are strongly related to global warming. Through purchasing carbon offsets, it is possible to fund projects which absorb, reduce or avoid an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases being released elsewhere.

Reform of the defence offset policy
2008-07-31 05:19:00 I am one of those die hard fans of companies like PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers). Though I do criticise them at times; by and large I am a great fan of many an international consultant. They really bring lot of value add to the discussions on the table. Look at today?s article by Dhiraj Mathur on India?s defence offset policy ? a subject which we are interested in and have covered earlier also in our blogs. He discusses with cogent reasons as to why the FDI cap in defence production (currently at 26%) makes no sense. While I recommend reading the full article at least once (do so here), let us look at some excerpts: The government is scheduled to announce a new (and delayed) defence procurement policy (DPP 2008) in the next couple of days. From Indian industry?s perspective, the defence offset policy is a key element of the DPP. The existing version (DPP 2006) stipulates that 30% (or more) of the value of a defence purchase from a foreign vendor for a contract exceedi...

Offset high gas prices by turning your car into billboard
2008-06-10 18:41:00 Gas prices suck and the job market is almost as bad, but a little uglification of your car or truck can net you some big bucks. Alternative marketing companies that want to plaster your car with “tasteful” advertisements are paying hundreds of dollars to the right people, but chances are you aren’t one of them. There is a reason you don’t see many of these driving billboards, because the companies with the money are looking for people who travel a lot and park their car in interesting places.

Kraft downsizes to offset rising food costs
2008-05-17 02:36:00 Foods group Kraft has revealed plans to cut portion sizes as it struggles to keep prices down in the face of the surging costs of ingredients such as corn and rice. In the week after McDonald’s rattled investors with its first monthly decline in US like-for-like sales in five years, the maker of Kraft cheese and Kool-Aid drinks reported a 13 per cent fall in its first-quarter profit, to $US608 million ($648 million). The company blamed rising prices, pointing out that the price of wheat, used in its Triscuit and Wheat Thins crackers, more than doubled in the first quarter.

Clinton $10 Million Gain Offset By $5 Million In PA Ad Cost; $10 Million De
2008-04-23 21:10:00 After last night's win in Pennsylvania, Clinton's campaign head Terry McAuliffe is bragging over gaining $10 million in 24 hours from donors. Well, that sounds great until we look at the fine print: Senator Clinton not only had $10 million in past due bills, but spent $5 million in ad buys in the Keystone State alone. Now that's not upfront cash that was spent, but money will come back to them in the form of an invoice for services rendered and thus a new debt. And that $5 million does not even include the possible $1 million in staff costs the campaign rang up in the state, so we're at $6 million. The point is, the campaign's net gain from donors is only $4 million and look out, the Guam Caucuses, Indiana and North Carolina are up next. Like the delegate math that places her constantly behind Senator Obama, Senator Clinton will not be able to raise enough money to totally offset her campaign debt.

AT&T’S JOB CUTS TO BE OFFSET WITH HIRES IN MOBILITY UNIT
2008-04-19 05:03:00 Computer AdviceFiled under: Cellphones AT&T has announced plans to cut 1.5 percent of its workforce of 309,000. Sad times ahead for the company? Not quite. Apparently the 4600 jobs will be harvested from managerial spots in its flagging wired home phone business, so no worries, wireless types. Now here’s where it gets interesting: word has it that AT&T also expects to hire back that same number of employees into the fold — the wireless fold, that is — keeping the total headcount nice and steady. We’d wager that we’ll see more cuts like this in the coming months and years, so if you were pondering that job as a switchboard operator, time to retrain. So yeah, turns out it’s business as usual for the number one carrier after all — unless you happen to be in the 4600-strong group of obsoleted folks, that is.

2008-03-13 05:22:00 A Discount Offset Mortgage can Help in the Short TermBy: Stuart Youngman A discount offset mortgage is an offset mortgage with a discount on the standard variable rate (SVR) of interest for a set amount of time.This article will briefly look at a standard offset mortgage, and then look at the difference a discount offset mortgage makes to the borrower.An Offset MortgageAn offset mortgage combines your main current account and/or savings account with your mortgage.

For example, the SVR may be 5% with a discount of 1%, making the initial in...
Emerging Markets Offset Tourism Slowdown
2008-03-07 01:00:00 The World Travel and Tourism Council has unveiled its latest research results which indicate the importance of some of the world?s emerging markets as strong sources of income for buy-to-let investors.

Mortgage offset
2008-01-30 17:36:00 With growing uncertainty as to the housing market in the UK, offset mortgages are becoming more common. This type of plan allows homeowners the chance to reduce interest by offsetting credit balances against the mortgage debts.This would mean that interest would only be charged on the net balance of the mortgage, giving homeowners the chance to save money by cutting out a portion of their costs.By combining home loans and savings in an offset mortgage, homeowners could find themselves saving money on interest, as the savings part of the agreement would not be susceptible to the interest rate associated with mortgages.Through this method, borrowers can effectively overpay each month, allowing for greater flexibility of payments and the opportunity to clear their mortgages quicker.Because you’re combining savings with the mortgage itself, there is the potential to use those savings to make monthly repayments – effectively giving yourself a repayment holiday.However if you also wan...

Could Tiny Diatoms Help Offset Global Warming?
2008-01-28 05:05:00 Diatoms -- some of which are so tiny that 30 can fit across the width of a human hair -- are so numerous that they are among the key organisms taking the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide out of the Earth's atmosphere।The shells of diatoms are so heavy that when they die in the oceans they typically sink to watery graves on the seafloor, taking carbon out of the surface waters and locking it into sediments below.Scientists have reported the discovery of whole subsets of genes and proteins that govern how one species of diatom builds its shell. For oceanographers, the work might one day help them understand how thousands of different kinds of diatoms -- and their ability to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere -- might be affected by something like global climate change. Material scientists involved in the work are interested in the possibilities of manipulating the genes responsible for silica production as a way of fabricating more efficient computer chips.Diatoms, most of whic...
