Deloitte: Mixed fortunes for global automotive markets

February 28, 2012

Rob Starr, Big4.com Staff Reporter

The annual Deloitte Motor Industry Services ? Australian Industry Overview 2012 report shows this has been a year where there were mixed fortunes for global markets, both in broad economic terms and in vehicle sales, while ?the continued solid growth of the Australian economy has made the market here stand out, bringing the attention of many multinational car companies.

It was reported that on average, dealers operating in the Volume Market saw a fractional improvement in their results over the last 12 months, from 1.8% NPS in 2010 to 1.9% in 2011, while the Prestige Market dealers remained stable at 2.1% NPS. ?Perhaps the biggest surprise was the story in the Luxury Market, where the average profit of Luxury Market dealers declined from 2.1% NPS in 2010 to 1.6% in 2011.

Other highlights for the report included:

  • The Top performers plan to make 5% net profit on sales.
  • They then focus on the non-financial KPI?s that make this up (internet and showroom statistics, service retention and CRM measures) and their level of achievement.
  • The focus is on the customer, not the franchise. A focus and reward structure built around creating value per customer interaction and maximising front end gross means the need to chase back end (re-earnable) margin isn?t as critical.
  • People generate 100% of the gross and represent 70% of the costs. So the top dealers ensure their people are trained, developed and rewarded. The parts department continues to provide an important source of income to help offset the profit drain commonly experienced by the vehicle operations.
  • Staff resource levels are increasingly being adjusted to best practice levels and there is a greater focus on cash flow and inventory management.

Danny Rezek, Deloitte Motor Industry Services partner supplied his overview:

?Within this environment we saw the average dealer profitability across the whole industry remain fairly static for 2011 with a net profit as a percentage of sales (NPS) of around 2.0%. However, looking behind that number, it was interesting to see that the way dealers generated their profit had shifted during the year.?

CFA Level 1 ? Corporate Finance, Portfolio Management, and ...

Capital Budgeting

Know:

  • All the measurements involved when evaluating a capital project
  • Decision rules for accept/reject
  • Why NPV and IRR give the same accept/reject decision and why they can give conflicting rankings for mutually exclusive projects

The Capital Budgeting Process as four Administrative Steps:

  1. Idea Generation: this is where good project ideas are generated
  2. 2.?????? Analyzing project proposals: ?this is where the analysts forecast future cash flows.
  3. 3.?????? Create the firm-wide capital budget: essentially the firm here needs to prioritize the projects according to their profitability, the timing of the cash flows, available company funds, etc.? Not all projects (even if they are profitable) can or should be given the green light.? The projects that the firm selections must fit within the firm?s overall strategy.
  4. 4.?????? Monitoring decisions and conducting a post-audit: the analyst needs to see how the project is going and to see if it is meeting the projections or not.? If not, why not.

Different Types of Capital Budgeting Projects

  1. Replacement Projects to Maintain the Business: these usually don?t have much analysis involved.? Management just needs to decide if the existing operations should continue and if they should, whether existing procedures should be maintained.
  2. Replacement Projects for Cost Reduction: should obsolete equipment that is still usable be replaced? Here there should be a fairly detailed analysis.
  3. Expansion Projects: very detailed analysis is done here to determine if a projects should be undertaken that will grow the business.? Very complex examination.
  4. New Product or Market Development:
  5. Mandatory Projects: these could be required by the government or insurance company. Usually don?t generate any revenue.
  6. Other Projects: ?for example, pet projects by management, R&D

Basic Principles of Capital Budget ? Including Choosing the Right Cash Flows

  1. Capital budgeting decisions are based on cash flows, not earnings.? But you must make sure to use incremental cash flows.? These CFs are the changes in cash flows that will occur if the project is undertaken.?
    1. a.????? Sunk cost: make sure that you do not use sunk cost when determining your incremental cash flows.? Examples of sunk costs include: consulting fee paid to determine the potential demand for a new product
    2. b.????? Externalities: are the effects that choosing the project will have on other CFs from the firm.? The primary externality is cannibalization which occurs when the new projects eats the sales from an existing project. ?The analyst should subtract the lost sales of the existing project/product from the expected new sales when estimating the incremental cash flows.
    3. Cash flows are based on Opportunity Costs: these are the CFs that the firm would lose by undertaking the project.? For example, if the firm decides to build a factory on land that it already owns, it should charge the cost of th eland to the project since it could be sold if the project was not using it.
    4. The Timing of Cash Flows is Important: capital budgeting accounts for the TVM
    5. Cash flows are analyzed on an After-Tax Basis: the cash flows are evaluated based on what the firm gets to keep, not what cash they send to the government.
    6. Financing costs are reflected in the Project?s Required Rate of Return: don?t consider financing costs that are specific to the project. Use the firm?s cost of capital unless the project will return more than the cost of capital needed to fund the project will increase the value of the firm.
  1. 1.?????? Independent vs. Mutually Exclusive Project
    1. a.????? Independent Projects: are projects that are unrelated to each other.? If two projects are independent and profitable, the firm should choose both
    2. b.????? Mutually Exclusive Projects: only one project can be undertaken.? Choose the more profitable one (all else equal)
    3. 2.?????? Project Sequencing
      1. a.????? Some projects need/should be undertaken in a certain order.
      2. b.????? Perhaps if one project is profitable now, another project can be taken on later
      3. 3.?????? Unlimited Funds vs. Capital Rationing
        1. a.????? If a firm has unlimited access to capital, it can take on all projects whose IRR exceeds its cost of capital
        2. b.????? If the firm has limited funds, it must ration those funds.? This means that might not be able to take on a project even though would be profitable

Calculate and Interpret: NPV, IRR, Payback Period, Discounted Payback Period, and Profitability Index (PI)

Net Present Value (NPV):

  1. Discount Incremental cash flows at the appropriate discount rate
  2. Subtract out the initial CF (assuming outflow in year zero followed by inflows)
  3. Choose all projects with a positive NPV

Internal Rate of Return (IRR):

  1. Essentially, IRR is the discount rate that makes NPV = zero (present value of inflows equals present value of outflows)
  2. How to calculate: use your calculator J
  3. Decision Rule:
    1. If IRR > Cost of Capital, accept the project
    2. If IRR < Cost of Capital, reject the project

Payback Period (PBP)

  1. The number of years it takes to recover the initial cost of the investment
  2. To Calculate: you just to a running total of your cash inflows.? The moment those inflows exceed your initial cash outflow; you?ve reached your PBP.
  3. Problems and? Benefits
    1. A drawback to using this method is that: (1) it doesn?t take into account the TVM and (2) there is no consideration of the CFs after the PBP
    2. A benefit is that it is a good measure of the project?s liquidity

Discounted Payback Period

  1. This is the same as the PBP above, except it uses the PV of CFs instead of just a running total.
  2. How to Calculate:
    1. Get the PV of each cash flow. For example, the PV of a CF in year 3 of 600 with a discount rate of 10%, would be 451
    2. Using the above PV numbers compute a running total to see where the CFs go positive
    3. To get a precise figure:

i.????? (# of years before the CF goes positive) + (-negative # in the year just before CFs go positive/positive number in the year following)

Profitability Index (PI)

  1. Present Value of Future Cash Flows divided by the Initial Cash Outlay
    1. = 1? + NPV/Initial Investment
    2. Decision Rule:
      1. If PI > 1.0, accept the project
      2. If PI < 1.0, reject the project

?

NPV vs. IRR when evaluating independent and mutually exclusive projects ? what are some problems associated with each?

  1. 1.?????? NPV:
    1. Advantage: the key advantage here is that it is a direct measure of the expected increase in the value of the firm.
    2. Weakness: the main weakness here is that NPV does not take into account the size of the project. For example, an NPV of $100 is awesome for a project that cost $100, but not for a project that cost $1M
    3. 2.?????? IRR
      1. Advantage: is that it measures profitability as a percentage, showing the return on each dollar invested
      2. Weaknesses: (1) possibility of producing differently ranked mutually exclusive projects than NPV and (2) Multiple IRRs

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? i.????? Conflicting Project Rankings:

  1. 1.?????? Because of CF timing projects can have different priorities (e.g. one project might have a higher NPV but a lower IRR ? IRR would say chose the other project even though this project would make the firm more valuable overall)

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ii.????? Multiple or No IRR:

  1. 1.?????? If the project as unconventional cash flows (e.g. cash outflows in years following the initial year) it is possible to either multiple IRRs or no IRR at all.

Various Capital Budgeting Methods Used

If thought NPV and IRR are superior methods, many financial managers used a variety of methods when evaluating capital projects. Some of these methods are delineated in the following ways.

  1. Location:? European countries tended to use the payback method
  2. Size of the company: the larger the company, the more likely it will use the DCF techniques such as NPV and IRR
  3. Public vs. Private: private use payback more. Public use DCF methods
  4. Management Education: more education (MBA) will use DCF methods

The Relationship between NPV and Stock Price

  1. (in theory)A project with a positive NPV should increase the stock price by same amount (e.g. positive NPV of 250M will increase the stock price of a company with 100M shares outstanding by $2.5 per share
  2. (in reality) the price of a company?s shares is reflected by the expected future earnings. Management might expect a positive NPV, but analyst might expect a negative one (or simply less positive). This alternative expectation will affect the stock price.

NHK's new Super Hi-Vision sensor captures 8K at 120fps, fast enough for Usain Bolt?

As amazing as Super Hi-Vision televisions are, most of the footage we've seen is of slow-moving cityscapes, nature and portraits. We may get more action sequences soon, thanks to a new CMOS sensor capable of picking up 8K (33MP) footage at 120 frames per second. The joint project between NHK, Shizuoka University and the Research Institute of Electronics is being shown off on the 27th at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference The chip is developed on a .18 micrometer process, with an enhanced analog to digital converter that enables the faster frame rates. That cut down data processing time and power consumption, all key to getting some sweet super high res televisions (16x more pixels than your current HDTV) in our living room sooner rather than later. Our only question? If they can build a new camera around it in time to catch the world's fastest human being do his thing at the 2012 London Olympics.

FX Rogue | Online

Every single day, hundreds of thousands of trades are created inside a currency exchange industry referred to as Currency trading. The phrase ?Forex? straight stems fx rogue review from the start of two phrases ? ?foreign? and ?exchange?. Not like other investing solutions like the stock marketplace, Foreign exchange is not going to include the investing of any items, bodily or representative. In its place, Currency trading operates by way of shopping for, offering, and buying and selling involving the currencies of assorted economies from world wide. For the reason that Fx market place is really a intercontinental buying and selling process, trades are created twenty-four hours a day, 5 times weekly. Furthermore, Currency trading isn?t bound by any just one regulate company, which suggests that Fx is definitely the only genuine free of charge current market financial investing method out there currently. By leaving the exchange costs from any a single group?s palms, it really is a lot extra tricky to even try to manipulate or corner the currency current market. With all the rewards affiliated together with the Fx method, as well as the world wide collection of participation, the Foreign exchange promote could be the major market place within the overall planet.

Everywhere involving one trillion and one.five trillion equivalent America bucks are traded within the Fx market place each individual and each individual day.

So relatively than guidebook you via a structured internet site with much more points via different sections; they normally utilize this pitch web page and so they frequently pack it with data in addition to a ton of tricky offering. It has demonstrated to get the craze and it is really gotten more challenging and tougher for a few EAs to industry their application devoid of these kinds of pitch pages. It really is frequently the situation with electronic solutions and or/stuff you?ll be able to get on the internet. With regards to these make-money-online and Fx web-sites they normally have got a great deal of flash to them and naturally several items to draw buyers in. Actually it is really not a great deal various from every other kind of promoting, most definitely not the likes of other financial systems, and so forth. They ought to have some kind of attractiveness and be aggressive. My summary is the fact that even though it appears like it may be a rip-off, do your research anyhow and it might not be. It just is dependent. Some important things are indications, but in my view world wide web layout and tricky offering usually are not immediate symptoms of the rip-off.

Even though from the Forex trading Industry a little something to hope for could be charts and evidence.

Most fx possibilities investing is executed by means of phone as you can find only some forex trading brokers delivering on line forex trading solution buying and selling platforms.

Forex trading Possibility Defined ? A forex trading possibility is often a economic currency agreement supplying the forex trading selection customer the correct, although not the obligation, to obtain or promote a certain forex trading spot agreement (the fundamental) in a precise price tag (the strike selling price) on or previously a particular date (the expiration date). The number the currency trading alternative customer pays on the foreign exchange alternative seller for that foreign exchange possibility agreement legal rights is termed the forex trading solution ?premium.?

The Fx Solution Purchaser ? The customer, or holder, of the foreign currency selection has the alternative to possibly offer the foreign currency selection agreement just before expiration, or she or he can decide to maintain the foreign currency solutions agreement right up until expiration and exercising her or his appropriate to get a place while in the fundamental spot foreign currency. The act of doing exercises the foreign currency choice and getting the subsequent fundamental situation during the foreign currency spot promote is called ?assignment? or becoming ?assigned? a spot placement.

As I claimed previously mentioned, the foreign exchange buying and selling is regarded as among the list of most lucrative and desirable possibilities for expense as any individual can quickly do in your house or workplace and from any a part of the earth.

For succeeding the Fx trading, someone is simply not demanded to complete any on the internet advertising, promoting and so forth. The one prerequisite during the Fx trading may be the account that somebody is needed to open up with trusted and registered brokers, a pc program and rapid online link.

Now, you might have for being mindful when opening a Foreign exchange account with any broker mainly because some could possibly be Rip-off. The Commodity Futures Buying and selling Commission (CFTC) in US has jurisdiction more than all Futures and Currency trading exercise. When investing inside the foreign exchange markets, people really should only trade that has a CFTC registered entity that is definitely also a member in the Country wide Futures Association (NFA) and is also controlled with the CFTC. For non-US broker/ financial institution entities, ensure which the broker or lender is registered with that country?s ideal regulatory bodies.

The simple most noticeable remedy is certainly ? on the net! On line foreign currency trading offers you immediate entry for the currency trading industry and there is heaps and a lot of providers on the market who?re in organization only to offer with you on the net. Be vigilant, do commit time for getting some excellent currency trading training, once more this may be supplied on the internet and build your dummy account to trade prior to you try and go reside. In the event you acquire treatment and just take your time, you will find no motive why you should not achieve success in currency trading so, have persistence and adhere at it!

Outreach or papers: where should postdocs' priorities lie?

Andrew Pontzen, astrophysics postdoc

One of the benefits of having a postdoctoral fellowship is that you get to choose what you do with your time. In November, I agreed to create some animations for the BBC showing what a computer-simulated universe looks like from the inside. There was a strict deadline - they were for Stargazing Live, a television programme broadcast in mid-January in the UK. As a result, my research pretty much ground to a halt for a few weeks while I gave priority to coordinating the video production.

The flip side of postdoctoral freedom is that, if you want to secure another job (fellowships are fixed-term positions), you need to have a whole lot to show for the current one. The apparent consensus of hiring panels is that just two things matter: papers and citations. So, logically, the best thing is to keep your head down, churn out papers, and go to the occasional specialist conference to remind people how much they'd like to refer incessantly to your work, thank you very much.

On the other hand, making animations and discussing them live on national television is more fun.

It's not only more fun but seen from a wider perspective than impressing future employers, it's important in its own right. These days, universities - especially in the UK - are increasingly aware of the need to communicate science more widely. In future, research council funding will be based partly on the outcome of the "research excellence framework" (REF). To score well, research groups need to justify not only their academic worth, but their societal "impact". Annoyingly that's not a very well-defined thing. What is clear, though, is that one of the few routes open to astronomers to tick this box is to engage with the community around them.

Stargazing Live should form an excellent showcase for my department, since we can point to fellow postdoc Chris Lintott's Planet Hunters spot (viewers of the show discovered a brand new planet) as well as the simulation videos. We can put a notional hard cash value on the work we did for the BBC, or calculate the equivalent value in advertising. (Money, even if theoretical, is always a good start.) We can point to my follow-up video (see below) for the simulations which accrued over 60,000 hits in its first two weeks on YouTube.

More than 1000 people came in person to the local Stargazing Oxford event, one of hundreds of BBC-endorsed events across the country. Many visitors had no prior experience of university-level science, and there are plans to track how many of those continue to engage with astronomy or physics.?This kind of sustained contact should score highly in REF, at least according to a pilot impact analysis conducted to establish the format and scoring methods of the first real grading in 2014.?

All very well for the permanent academics who can afford to worry about their group's REF score. But for everyone else, it's finding the next job that matters. Scientists, whether they want to or not, make regular moves between countries and continents to secure continuing employment. So UK policy is a relatively minor consideration when deciding how to maximise job prospects.

Even in the UK it's not really clear whether the "impact" agenda will materially affect hiring decisions. In fact I suspect it won't: there will always be enough enthusiastic postdocs in a department to sustain a reasonable level of outreach. The permanent staff will just need to marshall them into doing something measurable.

Nonetheless, I'll risk the occasionally hiatus from the pursuit of papers and citations to carry on with the whole outreach thing. I love research but it's refreshing to get away from it and talk about the bigger picture. And if we spend our lives obsessing over how to secure the next science job, we may lose sight of why we wanted it in the first place.

Blog - Deciding upon Straightforward Systems Of Criminal Law ...

This page relates to the fundamental knowledge regarding criminal law along with criminal defense lawyers. So far as the law is concerned, all details written throughout this article is imprecise wherein visitors will be advised this is not a legitimate legal doc. It is best that you just discuss personally together with your felony lawyer to solve your own legal issues when you need legitimate help and advice.

Criminal Law Tips

The connection of the country and its people is now being handled by felony laws. A crime as a result is really a breach of the regulations and rules designed by the sovereign authority. The range of guidelines produced by the house of congress has the purpose of leading the actions of the individuals within its location. This is the style of law that is definitely stringently being imposed in all countries.

Defending the actual protection under the law of assumed felons is the field of expertise of the felony attorney. The assumption of innocence would be the most important intent of felony Defense law firms. The direct result of a felony proceedings is very much influenced by the capabilities of the felony Criminal legal professional. Criminal Defense law firms are the types of law firms that happen to be constantly labeled as ?immoral? given that they have a duty to guard the proper rights of the assumed offender.

Criminal Attorney Tips

When the law is breached, it is important that you just confer with a criminal law attorney for your issue, especially for your Protection. It is simple to choose one employing an attorney search. Telling all the details to the police as quickly as possible is a common mistake of persons that were considered as suspects. Lawyers have a wide array of specialization but in the presence of the court they are only seen as the criminal Defense and the prosecutor lawyer. Make sure you select the lawyer who specializes in your difficulty since they definitely will work as being a major contributing factor in determining if justice which is being done or not.

Know a little about your civic liberties. Being the suspect does not mean being manipulated by others. Innocence of every suspect is always presumed not unless hearing under the court of law has occurred. Always call Defense lawyers immediately if such needs arise.

Tennis instruction ? Further Guidelines | Tables

The question of how to play tennis is often one that is a challenge to new players learning the game. Tennis is a great sport with many different personalities. In this article, we will reveal the basics of how to play tennis. It has 3 forms hard, lawn and clay tennis. Tennis is played by people over the world as a great form of exercise and recreation. There are also many levels of professional play in tournaments around the world. There are four top tournaments called the Grand Slam Tournaments. These are Wimbledon, the US Open, The Australian Open, and the French Open. Millions of people watch these tournaments making tennis a great spectator sport as well. Recently, tennis was added to the Olympics as an official sport. Insights Into Factors Of Tennis Academy.

The tennis ball, as approved by United States Tennis Association (USTA), are colored fluorescent yellow as it is more visible in television. The ball diameter must be 65.41-68.58 mm (2.575-2.700 inches) and weighs between 56.0g and 59.4g (1.975-2.095 ounces). These are filled with air and a uniform felt-covered rubber compound surface which traps air flow boundary layer that reduces aerodynamic drag which will give balls a good bounce. Next, is the tennis court. This is a rectangular flat surface usually of grass, clay, concrete or a synthetic suspended. It is 78 feet (23.78m) full length and 39 feet length on one side. Its width is 27 feet (8.23m) for single matches and 36 feet (10.97m) for doubles matches. It has 4 service boxes, two service boxes each court. The service line measures 21 feet (6.40m) from the net. The baseline that is located at the edge of the court. A clear space is needed around the court for overrun balls. This measures 60 feet (18.3m) wide and 120 feet (36.7m) long. The net which measures 3 feet and 6 inches (1.07m) high at the posts and 3 feet (0.914m) high in the center is spread across the court.

There are three main types of tennis court surfaces. Each surface allows for a different style of play to excel as the bounce and speed of the ball can vary dramatically. These surfaces are: A hard court surface are generally fast courts that have a good consistent bounce of the ball. Hardcourts are the most popular type of courts in America and most likely the court most tennis players utilize. A clay court is much different than a hard court. It is usually much slower as a surface and tennis balls often lose speed when they hit the court. This surface also causes the ball to bounce higher than on other surfaces. This allows for longer groundstrokes rallies. We see players like Nadal and Federer grind it out all day on the Clay Courts at Rolland Garros.

Although a sound knowledge of the game, experience, and a certification are all parts of a successful resume, personality plays an equally important role in a tennis professional?s success. The ability to identify with a client on a personal level is a skill that helps to break down the barriers of communication and makes it easier for the student to learn. An instructor that can put their client at ease in a fun and relaxed lesson environment is typically more successful in relaying instruction. Admittedly, this is a skill set that you may not be able to evaluate before your first lesson, but if you quickly realize there?s no chemistry and it?s affecting your learning progress then its time for a change.

Instead, demand results NOW while you?re on-court, and not at some later time. If your Tennis Teachers are truly worth their grain of salt, you?ll start improving with your very first tennis lesson, and will continue to improve with each successive tennis lesson. A good Tennis Teacher is absolutely worth the price. A poor Tennis Teacher simply waists your time and money. While certification does not guarantee a GREAT Tennis Coach, it certainly guarantees a reasonable minimum level of expertise. It?s unfortunate, but the vast majority of Tennis Coaches are unable to measure up to this requirement.

Tennis is a sport that is playable by all age groups and is enjoyed by players at all levels from kids to senior citizens. The basic area where tennis is played is call the court. This is a rectangular flat surface of varying types including concrete, grass, and clay. The standard tennis court is 78 feet long and 27 feet wide for singles matches. For doubles matches the width of the court is increased to 36 feet. A 3 feet 6 inch high net is stretched across the court, dividing the court in half. Tennis courts can be found in public parks, schools, and country clubs throughout the world. They can be outside or inside allowing for fresh air when the weather is good and year round play when the weather is bad.

So, if a Tennis Teacher only has an NTRP of 4.0, he/she can not teach you to play at NTRP 4.5 or higher. If you happen to improve beyond your Tennis Teachers NTRP level, it is solely due to your own abilities, not your Tennis Teacher?s. Always ask your potential Tennis Teachers their NTRP level. It is ill-advised to settle for a lower NTRP level for the sake of a lower price. You will only get what you paid for, with little or no lasting improvement. Instead, demand a high NTRP level to better assure yourself of more rapid improvement. While a higher USTA (United States Tennis Association) player ranking is no guarantee of getting good tennis lessons, it certainly does help. Tennis Instructors who have never been ranked, or have never even competed for a USTA ranking, should be avoided. Further Analysis Of Root Details For Tennis training.

Once a successful serve is made, players may hit it into any part of the opponent?s court until a point is scored. Rallies won by either player score points. A tennis match is divided into sets. In a tournament, men have to win three out of five sets to win the match and women have to win two out of three. In order to win a tennis match, six total games must be won ahead of his or her opponent. The game of tennis can be fun, exciting and enjoyable.

PFT: Jets won't rule out Peyton, or anyone else

1987 NFC Divisional Playoff Game - Washington Redskins vs Chicago Bears - January 10, 1988Getty Images

The various concussion-related lawsuits filed in recent months have suddenly taken on a far more serious tone.? According to NBC Chicago, Dave Duerson?s estate has filed a wrongful death action against the NFL.

Duerson committed suicide on February 17, 2011.? The lawsuit claims that, ?[i]f the NFL would have taken the necessary steps to oversee and protect Dave Duerson by warning him of the dangers of head traumas . . . then [he] would not have suffered dangerous repetitive head trauma, would have recovered more rapidly, and would not have sustained permanent damage to his brain which contributed to his death.?

This allegation presumes that the NFL knew or should have known about the dangers of head traumas during Duerson?s career, and that he would have chosen not to play if that information had been shared with him.

?CTE has been a known entity to the NFL for years,? said William Gibbs, who represents the Duerson estate.? ?This degenerative brain disease causes various symptoms ranging from cognitive decline to dementia.?? The NFL?s blatant disregard of the significance of this crisis amongst its retirees is baffling.?

?We have not seen the lawsuit and therefore our attorneys have not had an opportunity to review it,? the league said in a statement forwarded to PFT.? ?Dave Duerson was an outstanding football player and
citizen who made so many positive contributions but unfortunately encountered serious personal challenges later in his life. We sympathize with the Duerson family and continue to be saddened by this tragedy.?

Hundreds of former players have filed suit against the league, claiming that the NFL knew about the long-term dangers of concussions and failed to disclose those risks to players.? The NFL has argued that relief should be pursued through the collective bargaining process, given that players have been represented by a union, the NFL Players Association.

Duerson played from 1983 through 1993, with the Bears, Giants, and Cardinals, winning a pair of Super Bowl rings.? He was one of the named plaintiffs in the Reggie White antitrust lawsuit, and he was a member of the NFLPA Executive Committee.

Last year, NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith said that Duerson?s death has ?shaken me personally.?? The NFLPA hasn?t said anything about the various and growing concussion lawsuits.? In response to Duerson?s lawsuit, spokesman George Atallah told PFT that the NFLPA has no comment.

Given Duerson?s past role in the NFLPA, one thing to watch going forward is whether the NFLPA will take an affirmative position on the merit of the allegations that the NFL knew about the risks of head injuries and failed to take appropriate action.

The Holcombe Inn Celebrates A Year of Five Star Dining and ...

Delicious Digg Facebook LinkedIn reddit StumbleUpon Twitter Bit.ly Email PDFmyURL

Near Bath, Somerset ( freepressreleases ) February 21, 2012 ? A Grade II listed building set in an ancient village with a mention in the Doomsday Book, The Holcombe Inn has a lot of history to live up to. Luckily, in the year that it?s been ?under new management? it?s had little troubling doing so; continually setting new standards for luxury hotels in Bath, Holcombe and the surrounding area.

Making sure that The Holcombe Inn maintained a high standard as a restaurant in Bath, a somewhat crowded marketplace, as well as offering accommodation options for those visiting Somerset and Holcombe was always central to the new owners? plans.

Recruiting a Head Chef who had trained under television personality and restaurateur Rick Stein meant that it wasn?t only hotel guests who were quickly encouraged to find out what food and drink options The Holcombe Inn could offer. With a well-deserved reputation for fine dining and an excellent selection of wines, spirits and ales, The Holcombe Inn has perhaps justifiably become better known as a restaurant in Bath, Holcombe and Somerset. Whether you?re local to the area, or you?re from further afield, everyone should find a reason to stop by and wile away an evening at The Holcombe Inn at least once.

If you are travelling from further away and are looking to enjoy some of the beautiful countryside from a hotel in Bath and the surrounding area (or you want to make sure you can take advantage of the extensive wine list!) The Holcombe Inn can also offer luxurious accommodation. A five star hotel, ?individuality? and ?style? have been paramount at The Holcombe Inn since undertaking an extensive refurbishment programme.

Consisting of five uniquely styled rooms, The Holcombe Inn offers those looking to unwind the perfect location to do just that. Whether you are most comfortable relaxing in ?French?, ?Old English?, or even ?African?, surroundings, The Holcombe Inn has a suite to suit the needs of your party. However exotic your room, you?ll never forget about the beguiling beauty of Holcombe, or Somerset, as you gaze out at stunning views which take in The Mendip Hills and the nearby Downside Abbey.

It?s always a big risk taking on a hotel or a restaurant in Bath and the surrounding area in tough economic times. By focusing on offering their guests a dining or overnight experience that is unique in the Bath and Somerset region, both in its style and in its quality, the owners of The Holcombe Inn have proven themselves up to the task.

Rave reviews for their food and drink and the many guests who have left happy after receiving a taste of five star luxury are the reward for all the hard work and thought that have gone into The Holcombe Inn over the last year and a bit. Anyone who finds themselves in the Bath, Somerset or Holcombe area and manages to make the trip, for dinner or to stay, will soon realise why everyone at The Holcombe Inn are so proud of their achievement.

Calvin And Hobbes, Add The Bacon

Bill Watterson stopped drawing "Calvin and Hobbes" in late 1995. Everybody noticed.

Dan and Tom Heyerman stopped drawing "Pants are Overrated" late in 2011. I noticed.

The Heyermans' online comic strip was about two brothers who know much too much about each other (not surprising, since Dan and Tom are in fact, brothers), who get comfortable by throwing off their office clothes ? especially pants ? and spend time having wonderfully meaningless, insignificant adventures.

Dan, for example, would fall in love not with a girl, but with his Canon camera and try to kiss it on the lens when his brother isn't looking. That kind of thing.

?

The strip was fun ? actually pretty good ? and then one day, out of the blue, they concocted something that made me gasp. They decided to update Watterson's "Calvin and Hobbes" strip, by imagining Calvin as a grown-up, 26 years after his being six. That would make him 32, And in their imaginations, he's married the girl up the block, Susie Derkins, and they now have a little girl. Her name is Bacon.

Bacon, named for Sir Francis Bacon, an enlightenment scientist, is also 6, Calvin's age. And Hobbes, of course, is still a working tiger/philosopher, who comes to life for Those Who Believe In Him.

These attempts to reimagine the classics rarely work, because classics are classic. What Bill Watterson did for ten years was genius. The brothers know it. Plus, their homage was a trespass; loving, yes, but was unauthorized, and lord knows what Watterson would think of it. But the thing is, they somehow got close.

We All Miss Calvin

They only did two strips, called "Hobbes and Bacon" (see my earlier blog post), which went instantly viral. Sure, some people screamed, "How dare you!" but many more just sighed, "Oh, my...oh yes..." We all miss Calvin. And like bedtime chocolates on your hotel pillow, how could we not gobble up these two little sweets, wonderfully called "Bacon."

Just two. Then, Dan and Tom went back to their brotherly adventures, until last fall, when they decided, like Bill, to retire. They announced the end of "Pants are Overrated" in September, and then, in October, just before disappearing, they gave us two more.

I know, I know. I shouldn't. They shouldn't. We shouldn't look. We should respect our hero Bill. But I am weak. And these two strips made me tear up a little, and think, "Oh my...oh yes."

And then there's this one, which got to me because I secretly suspect that when Calvin is 80 years old, he will, in some essential way, still be Calvin.

Hematology and Oncology | Link

Hematology and oncology are two distinct branches of medical science that concentrate on regions that generally overlap one another. How this is so will need an explanation of each hematology and oncology as separate scientific studies.

Hematology

Hematology is an independent field of study, particularly offers using the blood and blood forming organs, at the same time as disorders that influence these locations in the human body. It?s basically a branch of internal medicine with quite a few internists utilizing the hematology field to be a subspecialty.

The internist specializing in hematology, or basically the hematologist, concerns himself with blood-related conditions, ranging from the common iron deficiency anemia to cancers originating inside the blood, to uncommon types of abnormal blood coagulation.

So as to diagnose a patient, the hematologist makes use of a number of test techniques, most typical of which is the blood test, itself consists of numerous approaches to acquiring blood test outcomes.

Oncology

Oncology is the study of various malignancies or cancers. These cancers may well take place in any element of the body, presenting itself as an abnormal growth of cells ? a outcome of an abnormal chromosome which is in turn a outcome of either damage or a genetic adjust.

The harm causes the cell to grow rapidly and begin to multiply until it forms a lump or possibly a tumor. The tumor is often either malignant or benign. If benign, tumors can be left alone considering that they do not invade other cells. Having said that, if the tumors are malignant, these tumor cells could spread to other web sites by shedding off and flowing by way of the bloodstream and begin other growth. When cancer spreads, the process is named metastasis.

Oncology issues itself with the diagnosis and therapy of all forms of cancers ? breast, prostate, colon, lung, ovarian, brain tumors, leukemia, lymphoma, amongst other individuals. Because some cancers involve the blood, the connection in between oncology and hematology is established that way.

Hematology and Oncology ? Methodology and Treatment

Hematology and oncology specialists usually come across that they?ve to function hand in hand if the case entails any from the cancer forms that affect the blood. After the hematologists conduct blood tests and obtains correct diagnosis in the blood cancer, the oncologists will start treatment.

Treatment procedures may possibly include chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, bone marrow transplants, stem cell transplants, and also other specialized procedures.

The most common illness that specialist in hematology and oncology will often face is leukemia, which can be a condition wherein the amount of white blood cells overwhelmingly offsets the levels of red blood cells in the blood. The illness can typically be traced back to an autoimmune defense malfunction wherein the lymphocytes (white blood cells) mistake red blood cells as foreign bodies and proceed to destroy them.

For leukemia, the aim of oncology and hematology specialists is remission. This means that every single step should be taken so as to return the patient to a somewhat far more normal white blood cell count. Hermon house cleaning
