...just long enough to be amusing, and just short enough to make the viewer yearn for more. The close-ups on Moon and Brown were aptly timed, catching their subjects at perfect moments of bewilderment or sheer anger. Another funny episode finds the Tropics donning heavy black eyeliner to frighten a big-shot team. There is no one reason why this movie fails so greatly. The shoddy finale comes close, and will definitely leave viewers thinking that they’ve wasted ten precious dollars and a whole afternoon of precious time. “Semi-Pro?...
Agnelli has enjoyed superb timing, but mining analyst John Tumazos says Vale's real edge is a willingness to explore the new mining frontier, in developing countries, years before the competition. "Things don't frighten them so much because they are used to ups and downs," Tumazos says. In New Caledonia, for example, Vale inherited a nickel project that had stalled because of concerns from residents. Vale flew some of the locals to the Amazon to show off its environmental stewardship; the project is now on track, along with 29 others in Mongolia, Mozambique, Gabon, Oman and Australia...

...presidential ticket with which the existing UC members are not familiar would frighten them, perhaps (and I won’t hold my breath, here), into silence. With Frances and Leo in charge, there will surely be a change in pace of the Council’s deliberations; and in the generations to come, their time in office will be remembered as fondly as we remember the administration of U.S. President John Tyler today. If elected, the Martel-Zimmermann ticket will certainly make the UC a more volatile and interesting entity; and for this, I lend them my support...
...Whether the market malaise will frighten others into the same decision is uncertain. Chinese have few investment options - real estate markets are frothy in major cities and interest rates paid on bank deposits don't even keep up with the country's rising inflation rate. People were still pouring into the market a few months ago. In August, about 4 million new trading accounts were opened, but the numbers have been falling since, according to stock exchange officials in Shanghai...
