One of our officers of a bank decided to quit, and I noticed that it looked like a lot of his file information was gone. I went to the regional manager and mentioned that I felt like there were files missing. He then turned to legal who contacted the person who left and he said he didn't take anything. So now the regional manager doesn't want to look bad and thinks that I cried wolf. He had another manager go look at the files and she said the same thing that it does appear that stuff is not there. However, the files were never in any order and so I can't say with a definate 100% that I know there are files missing. I don't want my regional manager to look bad, but why am I feeling bad for at least bringing it to his attention?

I have some designs for a backpack but I need a prototype or two made so I can approach a manufacturer with them. Any suggestions on who I could contact to have them create the prototypes? Someone in SoCal would be ideal but I'm open to contacting anyone, doesn't matter where they're located. Thanks!!

Retail Boom in india ..... curse or boon?
I m talking about reliance fresh or Mittal-Walmart colaboration!

The survey, carried out in three sub-regions in Asia (India, greater China and South East Asia) involving nine key markets, revealed that India topped the chart with 45 per cent expanding rapidly followed by Greater China at 27 per cent and other South East Asian capitals at 6 per cent.

Staples Inc, Starbucks, Walmart, Carrefour and the list is growing . . .

What do you have to say here?

Will this FDI will root out Indian market? Will stores like reliance fresh which attracted 8000 people in the very first day will do bad to our local vegetable sellers?

USA Banker's Magazine, August 25 1924 - "Capital must protect itself in every possible manner by combination and legislation. Debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers.

This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world.

By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."

hi,
if anyone could help me with this paragraph and show me in computations or formulas, i'll be really glad, kinda slow on understanding this text

To maximize the profit potential of a blue ocean idea, a company should start with the strategic price and then deduct its desired profit margin from the price to arrive at the target cost. Here, price-minus costing, and not cost-plus pricing, is essential if you are to arrive at a cost structure that is both profitable and hard for potential followers to match.

My gas meter has gone hay-wire lately , so I phoned British Gas and they told me to do certain things whiich I did , but it still isn't working right: I've tried to explain to them but all I get is the same instructions followed up by that will sort it out. It has not but each time I phone it is like I'm talking to an automated machine and can't get any sence out of them. My question is , dose any one know a number that I can call to speak to some-one with a bit of savvy? or a certain department where people know what is what and will actually listen to what I 've got to say and help to sort it out. A free phone number would be gr8 but any number will do; as I just want to speak to some-one who has more than 1 brain cell.

how do they know? I presume that they need to create 'new money' in line with inflation? but how do they know how much new money to print, so that it doesn't end up devaluing. something I have been thinking about for ages.

I was laid off of my last two jobs and incurred a lot of debt, and the creditors are terrorizing me.
They did two judgments against me and there are more to come. I consulted an attorney and it looks like I should do a Ch.7, however, his fee is close to $3000? Is this typical in Southern California.
