... In recent months this view has gained wider acceptance on Wall Street and in the media. Since most of these projects are already budgeted and in development, there is no geological reason why this wave of supply will not become available (though politics or civil strife can always disrupt output). Matthew Simmons, an American energy investment banker, argues in his book, Twilight in the Desert, that Saudi Arabia’s oil fields are in trouble. So vast are the remaining reserves, and so well distributed are today’s producing areas, that a radical revision downwardseven in an OPEC countrydoes not mean a global peak is here.

Several big GTL projects are under way in Qatar, where the North gas field is perhaps twice the size of even Ghawar when measured in terms of the energy it contains. ...
... Faculty evaluations that emphasize the impact of a professor's scholarship are misleading in the Spanish context, Mr. Berzosa says, since the most urgent task for the first post-Franco generation of university professors, amid swelling enrollments in the 1980s and 90s, was teaching. By qualifying only a limited number of candidates at a time, she says, the exam creates the impression that those who do not pass are not qualified in their field. Both are also among the top-ranked economics departments in Europe Selected by an independent, international committee of scholars in each field, fellows are eligible for permanent employment at the end of their grants.

... Burning his sweater, breaking his car or spreading itching powder on his neck are methods that we are never going to recommend because they contradict our fair play and the one we expect from our customers.

1. The notary will require the payment to the debtor in his domicile. After a certain period of time from the date of the invoice, when the hope of the customer coming back and paying the debt someday is already lost, you must issue and send a new invoice to the recipient in which the fee, which was charged in the unpaid invoice, is amended. But life is not all a bowl of cherries and there are cases in which the Tax Administration does not support this tax base reduction.

... Pl. ÚS 26/09, to annul selected provisions of the rules of procedure of both chambers of the Parliament, in joined proceedings is rejected [as inadmissible and ill-founded A petition to review the treaty was first filed last year by the Senate, and the Constitutional Court ruled on it in judgment file no. In addition, the Constitutional Court rejected as inadmissible (due to the impediment of rei iudicatae) the part of the petition that contested that part of the Treaty of Lisbon that was already reviewed last year. That legitimacy derives from a combination of structures existing both on the domestic and European level, and it is not possible to demand absolute equality among voters in individual member states.

If we add these two together - the builders and the cedulas - then we are obviously talking about a potential injection into something of over half of one years GDP in Spain Exposure of Spanish banks to the real estate sector has exceeded, both in level and in growth rate, that of US, Japanese and British banks. Well, to do some simple rule of thumb arithmetic, just to soak up the builders debts and handle the cedulas mess, we are talking of quantities in the region of 500 to 600 billion euros, or more than half of one years Spanish GDP. Yet, cor blimey, we are still busying ourselves arguing about the small print on the Lisbon Treaty Evidently, since most of the migrants are economic migrants the inward flow must surely be about to dry up (since there are few if any jobs for them) and thus our attention should be focused on the need to hold onto those we already have. ...
