Milos Srejic Regional Director at CA Immo Serbia: Recovery of the Real Estate …

Serbia-business.eu: Ca Immo is one of the leading Austrian Real Estate firms operating in Serbia. Can you tell us more about current situation of the Real Estate sector in Serbia?
CA Immo is present on the Serbian RE market as of 2007. At this moment we have 2 prominent office buildings: Sava Business Center and Belgrade Office Park. With investment above 100mil Euro in real estate projects we are among leading RE foreign investors in Serbia.
We are very happy with our tenants who choose our buildings, showing that modern office space is really necessary. I would like to mentioned just few of them: Piraeus Bank, VIP Mobile, Credit Agricole Bank, Pepsi, Nokia Siemens, Ericsson and others.

Serbia-business.eu: You developed and operate Sava Business Centre, hight tech office space in new Belgrade area, can you tell us more about the project development, problems and incentives during the construction?
It is very hard to work when you have unclear Laws, bunch of them, different interpretations from different state administration. Maybe the best illustration is that city building land tax when we acquire Sava Business Center was 0. 4 euro/m for net usable area, today after we finished building, city building land tax is 1.8 euro/m for gross area. Overall increase is almost 6 time. We hope that state will find solution that landlord do not pay property tax, land lease and city building land tax.

Serbia-business.eu: Do you plan to continue RE development projects in Serbia? What is the perspective of that business area in the future?
CA Immo is present on the market and will continue to monitor development of economical situation and real estate sector. Real Estate sector is strongly connected with real economy situation, especially commercial properties. Real Estate sector also highly depends on financial market and stability of the country. We believe that things will be better in coming period and that the hardest period for Serbian RE market passed away. But recovery will not be so fast!

Serbia-business.eu: In your opinion what does Serbia actually can offer to Austrian companies coming here, is Serbia attractive enough for SEE regional market development?
In my point of view and trough statistical researches Serbia is missing apartments, shopping centers, logistic centers and maybe not at the moment but in a long run modern office space too. There is also great number of infrastructure works which should be done. So here is big potential and investment climate depend on Serbia too. All countries are fighting for foreign investors and Serbia has to continue to be aggressive, but also more readable and reliable toward foreign investors, local too.
SEE region was hit by crises stronger than the rest of Europe, of course it depends from country to country. Taking whole into account I think that Serbia had less problems then some neighboring countries and that Government in general is handling situation not so bad, taking into account available resources.

Serbia-business.eu: How do you evaluate the competitiveness of Serbia as potential destination for investors, will EU integration and future membership change something in that aspect?
EU Integration will for sure help Serbia to stabilize economy and maybe to boost it. Economical growth is always followed by RE investments.

Serbia-business. eu: Serbia is identified by many investors as Emerging market and Sourcing| Outsource location, what would be your message coming from years of experience in doing business in Serbia and obviously from examples of best practice ?
Serbia is not among high developed countries but Serbia is quite comparable with other countries in the region, and we have to be aware that comparing with the countries in region Serbia had quite modest support from international community. There are still many chances for Serbia but they should not be missed

Czech Billionaire Radovan Vitek May Step Up Property Investments This Year

Czech Property Investments AS Owner Radovan Vitek

Czech billionaire Radovan Vitek, the
biggest buyer of offices and retail buildings in the country
last year, said his investment company may spend more on real
estate in 2011 as competition for assets increases.

Vitek's Czech Property Investments AS purchased 14 Czech
properties for a total of 10 billion koruna ($580 million in
2010. That was about 45 percent of the value of all the
buildings that were bought and sold. CPI's purchases included
properties occupied by German engineering company Siemens AG (SIE and
Nestle SA (NESN, the world's largest food maker.

"Last year was a great time to buy: prices bottomed out
and foreigners were selling for no obvious reason," Vitek, 40,
said in an interview at CPI's headquarters in Prague. "Values
are now going up a little."

The prospect of a stronger economy has encouraged foreign
investors led by European Property Investors Special
Opportunities LP and CA Immobilien Anlagen AG to return to the
Czech market. Acquisitions worth a total of 556 million euros
($794 million were completed in the first quarter, about seven
times the year-earlier figure, DTZ Holdings Plc (DTZ said in an April
15 report.

"We expect prices to eventually bounce back and that will
curb our appetite," said Vitek. CPI aims to invest 30 billion
koruna to 45 billion koruna on properties over the next five
years, as long as they don't become too expensive, he said.

Vitek said he owns assets worth about 30 billion koruna
($1.8 billion.

Blanket Business

Vitek started his first venture, importing blankets from
Germany, as an economics student soon after the collapse of
communism in 1989. He set up a fund called Investicni
Privatizacni Fond Boleslavsko A.S. in 1991, then renamed the
company CPI in 1998 when it began to focus mainly on real-estate
investing.

By the end of 2010, CPI owned office buildings, hotels,
homes and land valued at 39.7 billion koruna, according to its
website. The company's 12,600 apartments make it the second-
largest provider of rented accommodation in the Czech Republic.

CPI and other investors may spend a total of 1.25 billion
euros to buy Czech properties this year, up from 700 million
euros in 2010, DTZ forecast in April.

European Property Investors Special Opportunities LP,
managed by AEW Europe, completed the biggest transaction of the
year in March when it bought an 80 percent stake in six
warehouse parks, valuing the properties at about 300 million
euros. CA Immo of Austria paid 272 million euros for Europolis,
the property investment unit of Oesterreichische Volksbanken AG.

'Less Risky'

"The economic prospects have improved and foreign
investors perceive the country as being less risky than its
regional peers," DTZ analyst Lenka Sindelarova said by
telephone. "Czech investors with CPI as a leader continue to be
active but are likely to face more competition from
international investors this year."

The total amount of money spent on real-estate acquisitions
in the Czech Republic fell by about 58 percent in 2009, when the
economy contracted 4.1 percent. In the first quarter of this
year, gross domestic product rose an annual 2.8 percent,
compared with 2.7 percent in the last three months of 2010, the
Prague-based Czech Statistics Office said June 9.

In May, CPI agreed to buy Czech retail parks from CA Immo
and Germany's Union Investment Real Estate for 96 million euros,
the company's biggest real-estate investment this year. Vitek
said he may bid for assets owned by ECM Real Investments AG, an
insolvent Czech developer, if they are offered for sale.

Namibia: Afresh Consult Target 60 Companies for Sage Erp X3

Namibia Economist (Windhoek

Afresh Consult, the only dealer in the country licensed to sell the recently launched Sage ERP X3, has set a target market of 40 to 60 companies for the third generation ERP, Immo Bohm, the managing director of the company has said.

In an interview with the Economist, Bohm said there is one company that is already live on the product, but was confident that the target market will soon grow.

«There is one well known company live on the product already, and we are in the final closing stages with three other well-known companies. I believe the target market in Namibia for X3 to be around 40 to 60 companies. Many other local companies will run X3 because they are subsidiaries of companies in RSA who run X3 there,» he said.

Bohm said the advantages of using the X3 product was that it is very powerful, flexible, effective and user friendly at an affordable cost.

«It offers much more functionality than competing systems in its class. It is already web native, has embedded business intelligence and has visual processes, something most competing systems fail to have to this day. The system can be configured and new modules can be built without a programmer, making it very flexible and adaptable. This is quite unique. It also runs well on our local infrastructure, either directly via the internet – so you can work from anywhere, or even offline should you not have a reliable internet connection.»

He added that the Sage ERP X3 was ideally suited for companies with more than 40 users.

«Companies with more than 40 users typically have a complexity that fits well with what X3 has to offer. Some smaller companies might also be complex and then it makes sense for them as well. But our typical customer is what we call a large company in Namibia, with hundreds or thousands of staff. X3 is also very suited for companies that have expanded beyond our borders and which have a complex organisational structure,» Bohm said.

Previously known as Adonix, the Sage ERP X3 was originally developed in 1998 well before Sage bought the company two years ago. After the acquisition the company then started marketing the product as Sage ERP X3 worldwide.

Asked why it took this long before the X3 was launched in the country, Bohm said Sage was looking for the right partner to launch the product in Namibia, «and it was only early this year that they started talking to us to take their product to market.»

Afresh Consult is a Namibian company now headquartered in Gauteng with many customers throughout Africa.

«It is this mix of local versus Africa-wide experience that makes us a good business partner for companies that want to be competitive locally, but who face increasing competition from within Africa, especially South Africa. When you buy an ERP system, you invest not only in the software, but in a company that helps you grow your business, and who supports you steadily after the implementation. You need a business partner that understands business on the continent, not just locally,» the Afresh Consult MD said.

Strong Mercedes sales help Daimler rebound


Zetsche optimistic as wealthy global buyers drive Mercedes sales

Christine Tierney/ The Detroit News

The global economy still has soft patches, but strong demand for luxury cars from the world’s richest consumers has pushed Daimler AG to the forefront of the industry recovery.

The parent of Mercedes-Benz cars has benefited from a rebound in U.S. premium car sales and surging demand in China, the biggest market by far for Mercedes’ flagship S-Class sedan.

After a solid recovery in Daimler car and truck sales last year, «it’s getting better in 2011,» Dieter Zetsche, chief executive of Daimler and also head of Mercedes, said at a briefing Tuesday in New York. «We are optimistic about the foreseeable future.»

This year, Mercedes has pulled ahead of archrivals BMW and Toyota Motor Corp.’s Lexus brand in the United States, and it’s outselling Audi more than two to one. In China, Mercedes’ sales rose 62 percent in the first five months of the year.

China is a huge market, and its affluent consumers tend to go for top-of-the-line models. Last year, Mercedes sold 13,000 S-Class cars in the United States for $90,000-plus, 7,500 in Germany and 25,000 in China, Zetsche said.

Daimler is also the world’s largest heavy truck maker — and that division is benefiting from rising business investment. Last year, Stuttgart, Germany-based Daimler earned 4.7 billion euros, or $6.8 billion, in net profit.

With its core businesses on an upswing, Daimler is investing in advanced technologies and trying to fix two troubled businesses at the top and bottom of its product range — its slow-selling Maybach supercars and its iconic but money-losing Smart minicars.

Speculation is rife about the prospects for Maybach, which sold 190 cars in 2010, compared with 2,711 cars sold by BMW’s Rolls-Royce, according to consulting firm IHS Automotive.

The German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported that Zetsche wasn’t prepared to spend the $1.4 billion needed to develop successors for the two-model lineup. It said Daimler was considering making Maybach a sub-brand of Mercedes to share costs.

Zetsche confirmed that the company is looking at «different scenarios» for Maybach, including cooperation with another niche supercar brand. He said no decision has been made.

While the Smart brand has struggled for most of its 17-year history, Zetsche said it was a strategically important vehicle line and would play a key role in Daimler’s push into electric cars.

«We are convinced that Smart is more feasible today than ever before,» Zetsche said. In the United States, Mercedes-Benz has taken over distribution of Smart cars from Roger Penske’s Penske Automotive Group.

Although Daimler has steered clear of full-scale mergers since the unhappy experience with Chrysler, it has formed a partnership with the Renault-Nissan Alliance to cooperate on certain projects, such as developing the next-generation Smart cars.

Daimler also has teamed up with China’s BYD Co. Ltd. to develop an electric car for China, where the government is pushing the development and production of clean electric cars.

«I’m certain China will do almost everything possible to set the market conditions necessary for electric cars,» Zetsche said.

Daimler, one of the pioneers in fuel-cell technology, plans to put a fuel-cell car on the market in 2014 and introduce a more affordable, next-generation model two years later.

«By mid-decade, I’m optimistic we can drive the cost into the range of a diesel-hybrid equivalent,» he said. A diesel hybrid can cost several thousand dollars more than a similar, gas-powered vehicle.

But compared with electric cars, fuel-cell models don’t have the same range limitations, Zetsche said.

Mercedes-Benz tilts towards the East

dieter_zetsche_beijing_plant.top.jpg

Daimler Chairman Dieter Zetsche at the Beijing Benz Automotive Co. plant in China.

FORTUNE — For General Motors, the change came last year — China passed the U.S. as the automaker’s single largest market. For Mercedes, that time is fast approaching — and when it does, it will be far more consequential.

As a full-line producer, GM (, Fortune 500 is selling a range of vehicles, starting at the top with Buick and working its way all the way down the price scale to tiny subcompacts made in Korea and branded as Chevrolets. It succeeds in China by selling cars tailored for the Chinese.

Pricewise, the Benz’s on sale in China start where Buick stops and go up from there — way up. They sell for multiples of what GM’s cars go for. Moreover, Mercedes sells the same products in China that it does all over the globe — from M-class SUVs and SL roadsters to flagship S-class sedans. For Mercedes to sell more of these cars to the Chinese than to the Germans or Americans would represent a seismic shift. It would certify China as not only the world’s largest market — but also its richest.

Daimler Chairman Dieter Zetsche told reporters in New York on Tuesday that China would pass Germany and the U.S. to become Mercedes’s largest market in 2015.

There is no reason to doubt him. Mercedes’s sales in China have been on fire recently, having doubled in 2010 to 148,400 and jumped another 86% in the first quarter of 2011. Sales of the flagship S-class, more of whose buyers inhabit China than in any other country, rose 25% in the first quarter. Mercedes is also a key player in China’s super-luxury SUV market, with 19% of sales for vehicles costing more than $154,000, according to J.D. Power and Associates.

With that kind of mind-boggling growth, Mercedes is scrambling to keep up with demand. It is adding as many as one new dealership every seven days.

How will this enormous shift change things at Mercedes? Zetsche insists that Benz must always embody German engineering and brand values because that is part of the manufacturer’s promise to the Mercedes customer. Yet the demands of Chinese customers that don’t necessarily align with the wisdom of Stuttgart will inevitably make themselves felt.

Mercedes is already paying more attention to the rear-seating compartment of its cars, since Chinese luxury car owners typically have drivers, rather than drive themselves. It is adding long-wheel-base models that provide more rear-seat legroom for the same reason.

China is having a big impact on other corporate decisions as well. Daimler has joined up with Chinese battery maker BYD to build electric vehicles for the Chinese market. The joint venture will benefit from both Daimler AG’s expertise in electric vehicle architecture and BYD’s firm grasp on battery technology and e-drive systems.

The deal got an immediate endorsement from the Chinese government, which has ordered 100,000 cars.

Daimler isn’t putting all its alternative fuel eggs in one basket. Zetsche revealed that Mercedes will introduce a fuel cell car by the «middle of the decade. » A hydrogen-powered fuel cell car that emits only water has been the holy grail of automobile manufacturers for 20 years, but deadlines for its introduction have proved elastic. GM long promised to have a saleable prototype ready by 2010 but never delivered one. Even earlier, Zetsche’s predecessor, Jurgen Schrempp, had promised a Mercedes fuel cell car 2004, and it never left the laboratory.

Sales won’t be large because little hydrogen refueling infrastructure exists. Zetsche hopes that setting a new deadline for a fuel cell car will provide an incentive for others to start building. «Infrastructure is the missing part of the equation,» he says.

Further expanding its EV options, Daimler is holding on to its 10% stake in Tesla Motors (. Zetsche says Mercedes will use Tesla batteries in the electrically-powered Smart Car.

China and EVs are just two reasons why Zetsche believes that autos, once derided as mature, now deserve to be classified a growth industry with annual production gains of 5% to 6%. He intends for Mercedes, which invented the auto 125 years ago and still commands a substantial price premium over its rivals, to maintain its position in the automotive universe.  <img src="http://i. cdn.turner.com/money/images/bug.

Mercedes boss talks about ideas and faces

Mercedes-Benz (Thailand president and CEO of Alexander Paufler collects ideas. And he says the best he has collected so far this year has been printed in a small bag of sugar was given as a guest at the Anantara Resort Koh Samui. He said simply: "It's the little things."

"[The best idea] is not always the idea of ​​a" big change, "he said at a recent conference Paufler especially in the School of Management International Program, Mahidol University. "Especially in the services, be careful and follow things are very important."

Paufler, whose leadership of Mercedes-Benz (Thailand has involved a commitment to customer service new Thai company, said while visiting the local dealer and to check the service shop and toilets, which is in faces of the officials, including cash, to see "if they are friendly."

As for the faces of the staff is a familiar exercise for Paufler. He told an earlier seminar that when he was a company auditor, he could sometimes tell if a business unit was in a trouble by looking into the faces of its staff.

When asked by seminar participants to compare his experiences in running a company here with those in other countries, Paufler said he felt it was easier to run a business here than in Japan – where he worked for 16 years – because Japanese people did not often show their feelings on their faces.

Thais, on the other hand, are «quiet by nature», and therefore one of his goals is to foster a «de-kreng jai» culture at Mercedes-Benz (Thailand.

Paufler said it was always a crucial task for leaders to engage and convince their staff to create change for their organisations. Creativity and communication are two key areas on which they have to focus. To start the change process, leaders need to ignite a sense of urgency among their staff, constantly foster ideas and learning, and then measure and follow up the results.

«It’s my job to inspire [staff] with ideas,» he said.

This partly explains why Paufler is keen on collecting ideas – in his own words, «like a vacuum cleaner. »

As well as the sugar-sachet wisdom of the Anantara Resort, Paufler said he was given a definition of service by the general manager of the Four Seasons Bangkok Hotel, who said service stood for «Smile, Eyes, Recognition, Voices, Informed, Care and Exceed». On the other hand, the development director of the Six Senses Spas, Deepakshi Mathur, when asked why her properties had achieved service excellence, used just one word: anticipation.

To foster new ideas and creativity, Paufler has come up with what he calls a «creative gym», which comprises five things «not to do» – or obstacles – and 22 things «to do».

The five obstacles are:

1. Exhaustion. To handle this, he suggests daily decisions on what to do first, when to do it and what should not be done.

2. Easily distracted. Paufler suggests learning to say a positive «no», turning off electronic gadgets, changing personal expectations and knowing a time and place to think without distractions.

3. Disengaged and lacking in discipline. In this case there is a need to focus on the first goal first.

4. Not knowing what to do. People should write their own «personal mission statement», reflect upon it, and change it only if major corrections are necessary.

5. Fear of uncertainty, the unknown, unfamiliarity, failure and public speaking. To tame these fears, Paufler suggests learning about the so-called «amygdala trap» [the amygdala are parts of the brain associated with emotions, and particularly fear]. As well, he suggests making a case study out of situations or persons you fear, reappraising the unfamiliar, then preparing before you put it into practice.

Paufler’s 22 things «to do» for expanding creativity and generating ideas are:

1. Wake up every day with a specific goal to look forward to.

2. Be surprised by something every day.

3. Surprise somebody every day.

4. Write down what surprised you.

5. When a spark strikes, follow it.

6. Anything done well is a joy.

7. Joy is increasing complexity.

8. Control your schedule (less is more.

9. Make time for reflection and relaxation.

10. Shape your own space.

11. Find out what you like and what you hate.

12. Do more of what you love and less of what you hate.

13. Develop what you lack.

14. Shift from openness to closure.

15. Aim for complexity.

16. Express what moves you.

17. Look at problems from many viewpoints.

18. Figure out the implications and consequences of a problem.

19. Create as many ideas as possible.

20. Create as many «different» ideas as possible.

21. Try to create original ideas, either big or small.

21. Get things done.

Charlie Sheen wants his car back

A Mercedes. Click image to enlarge. The last of Charlie Sheen is "goddess" girlfriends, Natalie Kenly, left the actor fighting last week . According to celeb gossip site TMZ, the former sitcom star was required to return the Mercedes he bought in February . Kenly has to give the car?

Only if it was a loan. Give a gift is an immediate and complete renunciation of the rights of property, so that a gift need not be returned. But when couples break up, often into legal disputes over whether a piece of jewelry, pet, or even a Mercedes was really a gift in the first place. Like all law students know, there are three elements to a lawyer and discuss the needs in the delivery of gifts: the intention to grant, delivery and acceptance. In other words, the donor must intend to give it away, you must actually change hands, and the receiver has to make. (Acceptance is seldom a problem in legal disputes. Without the three, the original owner can claim their property.

The requirement of delivery is a useful way to demonstrate that the issue was a gift. The theory is that if a gift-giver can overcome the "key delivery" in the delivery of your property, you must really mean to give the object. From large items like cars and houses are too large for physical labor, the courts are satisfied with the "constructive delivery." That means Sheen could have completed the legal transfer of a key to Kenly, wrapping the car in an arch , or putting a picture of the car in a greeting card, despite the gestures seem a bit too sweet for the mash .

If the case of Sheen were to end up in court, their lawyers are likely to focus on the intended donation. I would probably say the car was merely a loan to Kenly to drive during the term of their relationship. In the absence of explicit statements that indicate to Sheen, the judge should consider the circumstantial evidence, as if the title Sheen in the car to your name or whether it maintained its own key.

If the credit line does not work, Sheen has a potential security argument, but it is a remote possibility. One could argue that the car was a gift "in contemplation of marriage. "Many states, including California, have special laws to deal with such gifts. Usually are engagement rings, but can be any type of property. The Golden State, the recipient of a gift in contemplation of marriage must return this if he or she is the one who breaks the engagement, or has been broken by mutual agreement (The states are all over the map on the subject ..

Sheen is plausible that for the car as an engagement gift. There were reports that he planned to marry unofficially Kenly and his fellow "goddess" Rachel Oberlin soon gave each a Mercedes. Unfortunately for Sheen, California still does not recognize polygamous marriages. That would be a difficult obstacle to overcome.

Tim Pawlenty wins major brand low-profile trip. However, the key was too low?

Republican presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty in Florida slipped to a low-profile series of events to raise some much needed money and make a pitch to the state's political elite.

Without warning or public events, eight state legislators wooed Pawlenty on Thursday at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables and a dozen lawmakers on Wednesday at the Hyatt Regency in Tampa. He also met a handful of legislators and potential supporters in Orlando. Most voters will be on September 24 GOP poll of Florida.

Although the vote at the bottom of a crowded Republican field, Pawlenty chose high-profile events to focus on fundraising, organization and strategies.

"It's sort of buffet of political things," Pawlenty said of his visit to Florida, a must-win state for Republicans seeking the White House.

"We will not have the level of Bentley or a Mercedes funds as well as some other candidates," said Pawlenty. "But at least have a level of Buick to reach out in Phase 1, which is the first state, and do so at a competitive level. "

Lawmakers who spoke with The Miami Herald after the meeting Pawlenty gave good reviews, but said they were not willing to give guarantees because they wanted to meet all candidates.

Some wondered why Pawlenty, governor of Minnesota From 2003-2011, did nothing to increase his name identification by the publication of his trip to Florida.

"He has to do, obviously, a touch in the future, but if I could carry it out would be a great candidate for the presidency," said Republican state Rep. Eddy Gonzalez of Hialeah. "He's not a favorite. I'm sure it will not. He could be a possible president and hopefully a good idea. It is a decent man, honest. "

Challenge intelligent network security highlighted in the report

Intelligent Network Project should focus on data security

Government plans to create a smart grid for energy networks requires a coordinated approach to cybersecurity, and communications networks play a key role, according to a report by the Energy Networks Association (ENA .

The ENA published the report of the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC, which is responsible for the network of intelligent energy. The results of the investigation, carried out by KEMA Consulting, found that government contractors and network need a more "coherent and coordinated approach" to ensure the intelligent network.

The report notes that the smart grid networks affect cyber security and describes how it should be an important consideration in the development of intelligent network architecture, technology and management systems.

<! – TopMPU ->

For example, the report says: "ICT security, along with computer system reliability, security and ease of maintenance are critical attributes for implementing and operating intelligent networks, and should be considered as part of management overall risk of this critical national infrastructure. "

Last week, the IT sector, under the wing of the intellect is involved in the discussion of intelligent networks with the launch of cross-industry organization SmartGrid GB . This group brings together IT companies, environmental organizations, governments, regulators and consumer groups. Multiple actors to coordinate and advise the government.

Robert McNamara, director of energy and environment in the intellect, is the manager SmartGrid GB. He welcomed the report: "A large amount of data carried on the smart grid and through smart metering is absolutely imperative that safety is priority number one.".

The DECC has already com/Articles/2011/05/12/246643/Government-gets-the-smart-metering-ball-rolling.htm "> a notice to inform vendors to be prepared for a job. A new company was created to manage data from smart meters that send and receive.

FAA Final EIS preferred extension of the south runway at Green

WARWICK – The Federal Aviation Administration has final approval of a preliminary environmental track expansion controversy TF Green Airport.

On Monday, the agency issued its Final Environmental Impact Statement in favor of an extension of the main runway of 1,530 meters to the southwest.

The plan will require the purchase of nearby homes and the relocation of a portion of the strip and the airport road. It was the same scenario suggested by a draft environmental review published last year.

The last step in the process is that the federal government to formally approve the project.

Airport officials said they need a longer runway to accommodate larger aircraft that can be made directly between countries on TRIPS and keep the airport competitive and according to the FAA.

"The runway length limited TF Green Airport has prevented some companies to meet current and anticipated West Coast destinations," said the report of 632 pages. "Most importantly, however, several of the TF Green Airport facilities do not meet the FAA standard for airport design and safety criteria. "

But neighbors and the city complain that the expansion would disrupt neighborhoods and taxpayers have the properties of the tax rolls. The report acknowledges the longest runway will bring increased noise, but says that some homeowners will be qualified for the money for soundproofing.

The airport served 3.9 million passengers last year and recorded about 220 takeoffs or landings on an average day.

Webster Groves, the southern portion of the county connector sparks opposition

The very idea of ​​homes being taken to allow a north-south connector for the South County motorists to reach the mid-counties had scores Webster Groves residents in arms on Wednesday.

A public presentation of the Impact Statement for South County Connector (EIA called on residents to City Hall on Wednesday night. The EIA has undergone a similar presentation earlier this month at the Affton White Center -Rodgers Community in Afton.

The EIS is conducted between the St. Louis County Department of Highways and Traffic, the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA. The intent of the EIS is to find a way to relieve traffic congestion in some counties in middle areas and create a more direct route from south St. Louis County Mid-St. Louis County.

Five alternative routes are displayed in an area that is usually limited by road from Manchester in the north, Hanley Road and Station Road in Laclede Interstate 44 en route to the west, Murdoch and Watson Avenue to the south and Big Bend Boulevard and River Des Peres to the east. The study area includes parts of Maplewood, Webster Groves, Shrewsbury and portions of south and southwest of the city of St. Louis.

What has affected neighboring Webster Groves is that four of the alternative map shows a small part of the northeast section of town that includes the Tuxedo Boulevard, Key West Avenue, Lane and Barbara Jean Kuhlman Court, all of which are between the North Laclede Station Road and Big Bend Boulevard, which is used for alignments of new roads. (The detail that accompanies PDF proposed routes.

Figure Tori lives in the 900 block of Avenida Providencia, only three houses away from an alternative route that includes Laclede Station Road North, and she sees no reason for any of the proposed plans.

"The traffic backup twice a day during peak hours," he said. "Each cycle of traffic (traffic light wash for an hour, so do not think that an hour of the morning and one afternoon is enough to justify putting in a eight-lane highway through our neighborhood" .

The need for a connector of the South County Figure is lost, who said he has lived near North Station Road Laclede for six years and is used for traffic.

"If you choose to live where you live, you have to take into account the traffic," he said. "I mean, we live in Webster Groves, we are central, and people living in south county, should have known when they moved there."

Although there is no firm plan and no federal money, state or local authority has to build any of the plans shown are not comfortable with any potential acquisitions.

"Once they come out with a decision of our houses are marked," he said. "It will effect our property values, we can sell our homes. But we're looking at all our options at this point because with two small children can not live a highway. "

Mayor Gerry Welch Webster Groves urged residents to fill out comment cards at the meeting and the other residents at the meeting to make their views known to officials of the county road.

"What's here (in the plan map as a possibility, it is here," said Welch. "What they have the opportunity, and they have to do is participate in this project, contributing their opinions.'s Why who called this meeting and that is what we need.'s Federal Regulations (EIA study and is a federal project and I am almost asking citizens to respond. "

Welch said he did not know if the alignments of new roads and improvements are necessary, but said that there are alternatives that exist that do not pass through residential neighborhoods.

"Our people need to say it is a preferred route for them," said Welch. "If they hear that from many people who could become reality."

Welch said his family's home in Pennsylvania was taken by a highway project "and I really, really sympathize with these people, with all the uncertainty here. My heart is with them and they have to respond. "

Shannon Haxel Shrewsbury resident of the 7400 block of Weil Avenue, asked county officials during the meeting how he could proceed with the sale of your home when the threat of road construction looming over his head.

"We had our house on the market for a month and we had a sample," said Haxel. "It's obviously a very traveled road, but it is a great neighborhood with small houses starting to be sold before all this. I do not know whether we will be able to move from our first house. We have been there for five years and our plan was to be there five years and move, but if I were a potential buyer would not buy my house, because you do not know if you'll have a four-lane ahead of him. "

John Hicks, Transport Development Specialist with the St. Louis County Department of Highways and Traffic, said they were still "at the beginning of the process" and that no concrete plans have been finalized yet.

To Haxel, which was not much consolation.

"I grew up in Bridgeton, right at the airport, and when I was growing up, bought some neighborhoods and is completely eliminated," said Haxel. "My grandmother's house is destroyed and everything was bought, and not even finish the expansion of the airport, so all the families and threw out half the community is gone."

Haxel said traffic patterns could change again due to fuel costs and fewer drivers "and we have these major highways and large are not used, even."

"Is it even worth all this," he said. "I drive to work everyday in Clayton, so I stop at lots of lights and it takes me ten to 12 minutes to get to work. It's really not that bad."

Hicks said residents in affected areas have no cause for alarm at this time because no plan has been completed and funds are not "logged" for any project. In addition, the study should be completed and approved by all agencies involved before any project could be eligible for federal and state funds. If this occurs, construction could begin at any time in the next five to 10 years, according to a schedule published by the county.

After the meeting, Hicks said that as the EIA process "is moving forward that (the residents have the assurances they need."

"We are forced to seek multiple options and multiple impacts, including impacts of the floodplain," said Hicks. "Now I will not say a (plan is better than the other, but we have to identify the impacts."

EIS shows an alternate plan a route from Laclede Station Road north of Deer Creek, along the Deer Creek Center in Maplewood, however, that the plan would take the road through the floodplain. The area is near the Tuxedo / Key West / Kuhlman area.

Other plans call for extensive use of the streets of Shrewsbury, including Shrewsbury, Landsdowne, Murdoch and Weil avenues to connect to Watson road or river Des Peres Avenue.

"When we do this detailed analysis, we can return to the public with accurate figures on what the relative advantages and disadvantages of each of the alternatives," said Hicks.

Resident can see alternative plans and make comments here .

FAA Final EIS preferred extension of the south runway at Green

WARWICK – The Federal Aviation Administration has final approval of a preliminary environmental track expansion controversy TF Green Airport.

On Monday, the agency issued its Final Environmental Impact Statement in favor of an extension of the main runway of 1,530 meters to the southwest.

The plan will require the purchase of nearby homes and the relocation of a portion of the strip and the airport road. It was the same scenario suggested by a draft environmental review published last year.

The last step in the process is that the federal government to formally approve the project.

Airport officials said they need a longer runway to accommodate larger aircraft that can be made directly between countries on TRIPS and keep the airport competitive and according to the FAA.

"The runway length limited TF Green Airport has prevented some companies to meet current and anticipated West Coast destinations," said the report of 632 pages. "Most importantly, however, several of the TF Green Airport facilities do not meet the FAA standard for airport design and safety criteria. "

But neighbors and the city complain that the expansion would disrupt neighborhoods and taxpayers have the properties of the tax rolls. The report acknowledges the longest runway will bring increased noise, but says that some homeowners will be qualified for the money for soundproofing.

The airport served 3.9 million passengers last year and recorded about 220 takeoffs or landings on an average day.

    Mercedes-Benz наклоны в сторону Востока

    dieter_zetsche_beijing_plant.top.jpg

    Daimler Дитер Цетше председателя в Пекине Benz Автомобильная компания завод в Китае.

    FORTUNE – для General Motors, изменения произошли в прошлом году – Китай обогнал США в качестве крупнейшего рынка автопроизводителя. Для Mercedes, это время не за горами – и когда это произойдет, это будет гораздо более косвенные.

    Как полный линейный продюсер, GM (, com/magazines/fortune/fortune500/2011/snapshots/175.html? источник = story_f500_link "> список Fortune 500, продает ряд автомобилей, начиная с самого верха с Buick и рабочие пути все, вплоть ценовой шкалы до крошечных малолитражных сделаны в Корее и заклеймили как Шевроле. Он преуспевает в Китай по продаже автомобилей специально для китайского языка.

    Pricewise, Бенца в продажу в Китае, где начать Buick останавливается и подняться оттуда – путь вверх. Они продают за кратные какие автомобили компании GM идти. Кроме того, Mercedes продает те же продукты в Китае, что она по всему миру – от М-класса внедорожников и родстеров SL, чтобы флагман S-класса седанов. Для Mercedes, чтобы продать больше этих автомобилей на китайском, чем к немцам или американцам будет представлять сейсмический сдвиг. Было бы сертифицировать Китай не только как крупнейший в мире рынок – но и ее богатых.

    Daimler Дитер Цетше Председатель сообщил журналистам в Нью-Йорке во вторник, что Китай будет проходить Германии и США, чтобы стать крупнейшим рынком Mercedes в 2015 году.

    Существует никаких оснований сомневаться в нем. Продаж Mercedes в Китае были в огне недавно, удвоилось в 2010 году до 148 400 и прыгнул еще один 86% в первом квартале 2011 года. Продажи флагманского S-класса, большая часть которых населяют покупателей Китае, чем в любой другой стране, вырос на 25% в первом квартале. Mercedes также является ключевым игроком в супер-люкс китайский рынок внедорожник, с 19% от объема продаж для автомобилей стоимостью более $ 154 000, по данным JD Power и Associates.

    С такой ошеломляющий рост, Mercedes изо всех сил, чтобы угнаться за спросом. Он добавляет столько, сколько один новый дилерский каждые семь дней.

    Как это будет огромной все меняется сдвиг на Mercedes? Цетше Benz настаивает на том, должен всегда воплощают немецкий значения инженерных и бренд, потому что это часть обещания производителя, чтобы клиент Mercedes. Тем не менее требования китайских клиентов, которые не обязательно совпадают с мудростью Штутгарт неизбежно дают о себе знать.

    Mercedes уже уделяют больше внимания заднего сидения отсек своих автомобилей, так как китайские владельцы роскошных автомобилей обычно имеют водители, а не загонять себя. Это добавление долгосрочной колеса базовых моделей, которые обеспечивают более заднем сиденье места для ног по той же причине.

    Китай оказывает большое влияние на другие корпоративные решения, а также. Daimler вступил с китайским производителем аккумуляторов BYD для создания электрических автомобилей для китайского рынка. Совместное предприятие будет использовать опыт и Daimler AG в электрических транспортных средств архитектуры и твердое понимание BYD на аккумуляторных технологий и электронных систем привода.

    Сделка получила одобрение немедленно от китайского правительства, которая заказала 100 тысяч автомобилей.

    Daimler не класть все яйца свои альтернативные топлива в одну корзину. Цетше, показало, что Mercedes представит автомобиль на топливных элементах "середины десятилетия. "Водородных топливных элементов, автомобиль, который выбрасывает только воду был Святой Грааль автопроизводителей в течение 20 лет, но сроки его введения доказали, эластичная. GM давно обещанный иметь товарный прототип готова к 2010 году, но никогда не доставлен один. Даже ранее, предшественник Цетше, в Юрген Schrempp, обещал ячейки топлива автомобиля Mercedes 2004 года, и он никогда не покидал лабораторию.

    Продажи не будет большой, потому что мало водорода заправки инфраструктуры существует. Цетше надеется, что установление нового срока для автомобиля топливный элемент будет служить стимулом для других, чтобы начать строительство. "Инфраструктура недостающую часть уравнения", говорит он.

    Дальнейшее расширение EV вариантов, Daimler держит на своих 10% акций Tesla Motors (. Цетше говорит, Mercedes будет использовать Тесла батарей электровозов для салона автомобиля.

    Китай и электромобилей только две причины, почему Цетше считает, что автомобили, когда-то насмехался как зрелые, в настоящее время заслуживают того, чтобы быть классифицированы роста промышленности с годовым объемом производства выгоды от 5% до 6%. Он предназначается для Mercedes, которая изобрела автомобиль 125 лет назад и все еще пользуется существенной высокую цену за его конкурентов, чтобы сохранить свои позиции в автомобильной вселенной. cdn.turner.com / деньги / фото / ошибка.

    Mercedes босс говорит об идеях и лицах

    Mercedes-Benz (президент Таиланда и главный исполнительный директор Александр Paufler собирает идеи. И он говорит, лучший он собрал в этом году был напечатан на небольшой пакетик сахара он получил в качестве гостя на Anantara Resort на острове Самуи. Это сказал просто: "Именно в мелочах."

    "[Лучшая идея] не всегда идея" большой поворот ', "Paufler заявил в недавнем специальные лекции в колледже Управления Международной программы Махидол университета. "Особенно в сфере услуг, будучи тщательно и последующее наблюдение за вещи очень важны".

    Paufler, чье руководство Mercedes-Benz (Таиланд привлек новых обязательств услуги тайских клиентов фирмы, сказал, что при посещении магазина дилера, а также проверить по ремонту и туалеты, он смотрит на лица сотрудников , в том числе кассиров, чтобы посмотреть, "если они выглядят дружелюбно".

    Глядя на лица персонала знакомые упражнения для Paufler. Он сказал ранее семинар, который, когда он был аудиторской компанией, он может иногда сказать, если подразделение было в беде, глядя в лица своих сотрудников.

    Отвечая на вопрос участников семинара предстоит сравнить свой опыт в управлении компании здесь с теми, в других странах, Paufler сказал, что он чувствовал, что это легче вести бизнес, чем в Японии – где он работал в течение 16 лет – потому что японцы не часто показывают свои чувства на их лицах.

    Тайцы, с другой стороны, "тихий от природы", и поэтому одной из его целей является содействие "де-kreng хай" культуры на Mercedes-Benz (Thailand.

    Paufler сказал, что это всегда было важнейшей задачей для лидеров, чтобы привлечь и убедить своих сотрудников для создания изменений для своих организаций. Творчество и общение двух ключевых областях, на которых они должны сосредоточиться. Чтобы запустить процесс изменений, лидеры должны разжечь чувство срочности среди своих сотрудников, постоянно способствовать идей и обучения, а затем измерять и следить за результатами.

    "Это моя работа, чтобы вдохновить [состав] с идеями", сказал он.

    Это отчасти объясняет, почему Paufler увлекается сбором идей – по его собственным словам, "как пылесос. "

    Как и сахар-саше мудрость Anantara Resort, Paufler сказал, что он получил определение службы генерального директора Four Seasons Bangkok Hotel, который сказал, служба выступает за "улыбка, глаза, распознавание голоса, обоснованного, уход и превысить ". С другой стороны, директор по развитию компании Six Senses Spas, Deepakshi Матур, когда его спросили, почему ее свойства достигли высокого качества обслуживания, используется только одним словом: ожидание.

    Чтобы развивать новые идеи и творчество, Paufler придумал, что он называет "творческим тренажерный зал», который состоит из пяти вещей "не делать" – или препятствия – и 22 вещей "делать".

    Пять препятствий:

    1. Исчерпание. Чтобы исправить ситуацию, он предлагает ежедневные решения о том, что делать в первую очередь, когда это делать и чего не следует делать.

    2. Легко отвлекается. Paufler предполагает обучение сказать, положительный "нет", отключение электронных устройств, изменение личных ожиданий и, зная время и место, чтобы думать, не отвлекаясь.

    3. Выключенным и не хватает дисциплины. В этом случае необходимо сосредоточить внимание на первый гол в первую очередь.

    4. Не зная, что делать. Люди должны написать свои собственные "ничего о миссии", отражать на него, и изменить его, только если основные поправки необходимы.

    5. Страх неопределенности, неизвестности, незнания, неудачи и публичных выступлений. Приручить эти опасения, Paufler предлагает узнать о так называемой "мозжечковая миндалина ловушку» [миндалины являются частями мозга, связанные с эмоциями, и, в частности страха]. Кроме того, он считает необходимым проведение тематического исследования из ситуации, или лица, вы боитесь, переоценкой незнакомый, то подготовку, прежде чем положить ее на практике.

    Paufler в 22 вещей "сделать" для расширения творчества и генерации идей являются:

    1. Просыпайтесь каждый день с определенной целью, чтобы с нетерпением ждать.

    2. Вы будете удивлены чем-то каждый день.

    3. Сюрприз кто-то каждый день.

    4. Запишите, что вы удивлены.

    5. Когда искра забастовки, следуют за ним.

    6. Все, что сделано хорошо это радость.

    7. Радость возрастающей сложности.

    8. Управляйте своим расписанием (чем меньше, тем больше.

    9. Найдите время для размышлений и отдыха.

    10. Создавайте собственное пространство.

    11. Узнайте, что вам нравится и что вы ненавидите.

    12. Делайте больше того, что вы любите и меньше того, что вы ненавидите.

    13. Развивать то, что вам не хватает.

    14. Переход от открытости к закрытию.

    15. Стремитесь к сложности.

    16. Экспресс, что движет вами.

    17. Посмотрите на проблемы со многих точек зрения.

    18. Выясните, последствия и последствия проблемы.

    19. Создать столько идей, как это возможно.

    20. Создать столько "разных" идей, как это возможно.

    21. Попробуйте создать оригинальные идеи, будь то большие или малые.

    21. Получить все это осуществить.
