THE NEW BISHOP ROBINSON (GENE, NOT JOHN) IS AT IT AGAIN
2008-06-12 19:44:00 THE NEW BISHOP ROBINSON (GENE, NOT JOHN) IS AT IT AGAIN !!!! When I was a young man, shortly after my conversion, in the early 1960s, a young British ultraliberal Anglican Bishop named John A. T. Robinson caused an uproar with his best-selling book Honest To God, which in no way taught anything new, but merely repeated the heretical notions found in such liberals as Paul Tillich and Rudolf Bultmann, who were very popular with liberal Protestants back then. What was new was a BISHOP saying these things which were clearly contrary to the official doctrinal stance of the Church of England. Now there had been plenty of Anglican clergy who thought as he did but at least they did not come out and say it in front of the servants! (You should not come out and say such things publicly; they should stay "in the closet", don't you know.) There was such a firestorm ignited by this (then young, but now old) Bishop Robinson that a new book soon appeared entitled The Honest To God Debat...

Nick Robinson hits Gordon Brown's nail on the head.
2008-05-16 13:00:00 Nick Robinson is often accused of being soft on Gordon Brown by the right and of showing contempt for the PM from the left. To be honest this is probably down to Nick writing his articles from the centre ground - you can't please them all. Anyhoo, Nick's latest post directs his readers to an essay he wrote for the Today programme at the end of Gordon Brown's extraordinary week (as he describes it). The essay gives us an insight into what is really happening behind the scenes in the Labour party. Nick hits Gordon Brown's nail right on the head:"Imagine. Imagine just for a second. What if there had not been an emergency Budget this week. What if the government had not borrowed an extra Ł2.7 billion to pay for a tax cut to 22 million people? Ministers are in no doubt. Labour MPs would have defeated the Finance Bill - that's the legislation that implements the Budget. That would have been led to the resignation of the Chancellor, Alistair Darling. The prime minister's long-term al...

Earth Wind and Fire will be playing during the event while Janet Jackson will be one of the presenters.Even if they asked him, it doesn't look like Ace Frehley would join Kiss again for a tour. "I don't see it happening. I never say never, but I just turned 57. I don't see myself getting up on stage with tights on and putting on the make-up and jumping around like, you know, a kid again. Because I don't physically think I can do it. On the last reunion tour, I saw a couple of videos. I think we looked a little tired, you know?

Setting financial goals helps direct financial planning. Examples of financial goals are: "To retire at age 50 with a personal net worth of $800,000 American," or "To buy a house in 3 years paying a monthly mortgage servicing cost that is no more than 25% of my gross income". It is not uncommon to have several goals, some short term, and some long term. Read more about finance.

Car Buyers Can Take This to the Bank Posted By : Peter Robinson
2008-05-08 08:10:00 It is easy for car buyers to relax after the vehicle price has been established. This is the time when they should be alert and focused, because this is when money can change hands very quickly. Many graduates think that the six months they have before the required scheduled repayment of their various college debts seems like forever. The six months is nothing compared to the years and years of payments ahead of you. A consolidation of student loans can make the monthly much less painful. Read more about finance and student loans.

Gordon Brown turns on a tenpence (Nick Robinson interview).
2008-04-23 23:04:00 Nick Robinson has interviewed Gordon Brown following his disastrous U turn and an equally pathetic PMQs. It could have been a chance for a bit of honesty and humility, but Gordon doesn't dance to that tune. Instead, Brown - well how can I put this? oh yes that's it - lied through his teeth. Nick did his best to get Brown to admit that today's panic announcement was a U turn on his repeated stance of last week - to no avail.See for yourself by clicking HERE.

A Few Words ... Five Questions with Oriole Legend Brooks Robinson...
2008-04-14 17:52:00 The blog had the opportunity last year to have a brief chat with Hall of Famer and Oriole legend, Brooks Robinson. Well, I decided to catch up with Brooks a year later and see what he's been up to, plus ask about current issues in the game.Throughout his career, he was known as "The Human Vacuum Cleaner," as he is known until this day as one of the greatest third baseman, much less infielders of all time. Robinson played 23 seasons, all for the Orioles, setting major league career records for games, putouts, assists, chances, double plays and fielding percentage for a third baseman.Though known for this steady glove, he hit 268 career home runs, at one time an American League record for third basemen. Robinson earned the league's MVP Award in 1964 and the World Series MVP in 1970, when he hit .429 and made a collection of defensive gems.Below are a few questions that I asked him. I hope you enjoy the interview, and feel free to send me feedback at mdguy2415@aol.comHope you all enj...

Has baseball lost the meaning of Jackie Robinson Day?
2008-04-13 14:21:00 In 2007, Ken Griffey Jr. asked permission to wear No. 42 on the annual Jackie Robinson Day. Commissioner Bud Selig loved the idea and invited other players to join in. On some clubs, one player wore No. 42. On other clubs, several players did. On still others, every player did. This is what Los Angeles Angels outfield Torii Hunter said, to USA Today: "This is supposed to be an honor, and just a handful of guys wearing the number. Now you've got entire teams doing it. I think we're killing the meaning. It should be special wearing Jackie's number, not just because it looks cool."What upset Hunter, he says now, was this: The Houston Astros had no black players on their team last April, and yet the entire team wore No. 42. Said Hunter: "That got it away from, 'OK, we don't have any blacks,' " he said. To Hunter, a roster with no black players did not represent the progress for which Robinson stood, and baseball celebrated according to a report in the Los Angeles Times.

Car Buying 101 By Peter Robinson
2008-04-10 09:06:00 As is the case with any relationship, of any kind, the party who cares the least about it is in control of it.In a car deal, if you are willing and able to walk away from the table and go home, you will be able to negotiate from a position of strength. Just make sure that your expectations are reasonable. Never bring any emotion into any negotiation. Don't fall in love with a car before you own it. Buy one that you know you could love, but do not make an emotional commitment until it is yours. Don't propose marriage on the first date!It is a well-recognized fact in the business that the customers who pay the most for their vehicles ( percent vs. MSRP/KBB) are happiest with their purchase. This is because these folks have decided that they are not going to let buying a car ruin their day or their week. They have determined that it will probably cost more than it should, like many things in life, but they are going to buy a car and drive away in it.People who negotiate all day long ...
Robinson Tejeda Trade Unlikely
2008-04-08 11:07:00 We discussed 26 year-old starter Robinson Tejeda here. Imagine Carlos Silva with poor control and mid-90s heat (hmm, doesn't sound too much like Silva actually). Anyway, the Rangers designated Tejeda for assignment last week and have until Wednesday to trade him. Jon Daniels doesn't expect a deal, meaning Tejeda may simply be plucked off waivers. He's a project, so he might make more sense for a rebuilding team. Jayson Stark saw no indications that the Mets were after Tejeda; David Lennon did. The above-linked article from Anthony Andro also notes that outfielder Nelson Cruz passed through waivers unclaimed and is headed to Triple A. The 27 year-old seems to have earned the Quad-A tag.

OCBC ends Singapore Robinson ties, sells stake to Dubai retail group
2008-04-05 03:42:00 OCBC ends Singapore Robinson ties, sells stake to Dubai retail group Al-Futtaim now owns 87.2%; no plans outlined yet, so store could well end up being privatised By Lee Su Shyan, Assistant Money Editor STRATEGIC PLAN: Dubai-based Al-Futtaim has said it plans to use Robinson & Co as a springboard to South-east Asia.   OCBC Bank, the last substantial investor in the grand dame retailer Robinson & Co, has sold its stake to Dubai’s Al-Futtaim Group, severing a relationship that has lasted for more than half a century. OCBC, which owned about 6.05 per cent or 5.2 million shares of the Orchard Road institution, announced its decision yesterday. The bank would reap $37.4 million for its stake based on the $7.20 per share price Al-Futtaim announced after the offer closed on Thursday. It still has 6,000 shares because of a legal technicality, but it is understood that these shares will be tendered soon. OCBC’s announcement confirmed speculations that the bank had...

Al-Futtaim bags Singapore Robinson after Lippo accepts offer
2008-04-04 03:24:00 Al-Futtaim bags Singapore Robinson after Lippo accepts offer Bid raised to $7.20 to mop up more; Dubai investor now has an 87.19% stake By MICHELLE QUAH (SINGAPORE) It took up to the very last minute, but the Al-Futtaim Group has succeeded in its takeover of retailer Robinson & Co. Â Â The Dubai-based investor managed to acquire more than 50 per cent of Robinson yesterday - on the very last day of its conditional bid - when the Lippo Group decided to tender into the offer. Al-Futtaim’s offer for Robinson is now unconditional, i.e. the deal will have to go through, being no longer dependent on any conditions to succeed. Al-Futtaim has also extended the deadline for its offer to April 30 and raised its bid price to $7.20 a share, from $7 previously - an indication of its determination to gain as much control of Robinson as possible. ‘Robinson has strong brand equity and an enviable heritage of meeting and exceeding customers’ expectations. We fully intend to co...
Lippo agrees to sell Singapore Robinson stake to Dubai retail giant
2008-04-04 03:21:00 Lippo agrees to sell Singapore Robinson stake to Dubai retail giant  It accepts higher price of $7.20 a share, giving up control of retailer By Fiona Chan  INDONESIA’S Lippo Group yesterday agreed to sell its shares in Robinson & Co, paving the way for Singapore’s oldest retailer to be taken over by the Al-Futtaim Group of Dubai. Lippo, which owns 29.99 per cent of the department store chain, held out from selling until the very last moment, forcing Al-Futtaim to extend its offer deadline and raise its price twice. The Indonesian group finally accepted the offer just before the 5.30pm deadline yesterday at a price - $7.20 a share - that was almost a dollar higher than the initial offer of $6.25. With Lippo’s acceptance, Al-Futtaim would control 60.8 per cent of Robinson. Barely two hours later, the acceptance level had soared to 87.2 per cent. The offer is now unconditional and has been extended to April 30 for the remaining shareholders. These include OC...

Will Lippo make counter-bid for Singapore Robinson?
2008-03-19 01:16:00 Will Lippo make counter-bid for Singapore Robinson? By MICHELLE QUAH DUBAI’S Al-Futtaim Group on Monday raised its takeover bid for Singapore retailer Robinson & Co to $7.00 a share, from $6.25 previously - pressured by the buoyant performance of Robinson’s stock, which has been trading at an average of $6.64 since the original offer was made two months ago. All eyes are now on the Lippo Group, Robinson’s largest shareholder, to see if it will sell its stake to Al-Futtaim, hold onto its stake in hopes of the takeover failing, or mount a takeover bid of its own. Much will depend on what Lippo thinks Robinson is worth - ie, are Al-Futtaim and investors right in betting that the retailer is worth $7.00 a share. Lippo took up its stake in Robinson in April 2006, when OCBC Bank put its 35.96 per cent stake in the retailer up for sale. Lippo paid a 17% premium It won the closed tender by offering $7.90 a share, buying 29.9 per cent of Robinson for $203 million. It di... |
