From the middle of July, Sony Corporation refreshed their senior laptop brand VAIO from “Video Audio Integrated Operation” to “Visual Audio Intelligent Organizer”. According to Sony Taiwan Limited, this refreshment is an attempt to relocate the laptop consuming market for business and entertainment factors.

In the “VAIO Experience 2008” press conference in Europe, Sony promoted their new product series for different populations including BZ for business, FW for home entertainment, Z for ultra-slim, and SR for complex applications.

Different with past series, Sony added “Clear Bright” screening technology for high-definition display, and “full-carbon production” features. BD-burning and Intel Centrino 2 processing technologies will be featured in all the new models. For security issue, Sony also embedded fingerprint system to prevent personal data to be stolen. Continued from TZ series, innovative designs including “Green Power Button”, “Situational Switch” are also added in newly-launched series.

“Due to consuming market differences, Sony only promoted BZ series in Europe and America but not included Asia. Although the TICA Show in Taipei will be different, functionality will be the greatest issue when a consumers choose a notebook [computer] before buying.” addressed by executives from Sony Taiwan Limited, during the “VAIO Experience 2008” press conference in Taiwan.

NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. won his first pole position of the season today for the 2011 Daytona 500 that will be held at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. His time of 48.364 seconds was faster than all others who qualified. Jeff Gordon followed in the second position with a time of 48.396. Unlike other qualifying sessions, this qualifying session only decided the first and second position, while the others will be decided by the two Gatorade Duels held on February 17.

It was the third time that both first and second place car was from Hendrick Motorsports. Following his qualifying run, he said, “We had a great car today. I didn’t really have a whole lot to do with it, just had to hold on the bottom as tight as I could and the power and the body and everything does all the work.” He continued, “It obviously gives you a good idea that you’ve got a great car, but anyone can win the race. There’s guys that qualified outside the top 20 that have got winning cars.” Earnhardt started second in the race last year, and has won the race once, which was in 2004.

The race will be held at 13:00 EST on February 20, 2011. The race will be broadcast on Fox in the United States. It will also be broadcast on the radio station Motor Racing Network at 12:00 EST.

Is It Possible To Find Safe Car Parking In London?

Filed under: Parking — @ 3:02 am, March 23, 2018.

Is it possible to find safe car parking in London? by Tom JuiA recent story of opportunistic thieves in East London who drilled a hole into the side of a cars petrol tank and siphoned out the petrol is not unusual. When asked what they did with their car after the expensive repairs took place the owners replied: We found a secure parking space.The simplicity of this solution is clear instantly. Thieves are opportunists, and this means that if they arent given the opportunity to steal the chances are that they wont. There are several well-documented ways to deter thieves that dont inconvenience car owners too much and many boil down to simple common sense.For example, leave the car empty. Of course leaving handbags, wallets and laptop bags on display is utter foolishness, but even coats and plastic bags which may be full of rubbish might be enough to attract the attention of a petty criminal. Remember, while they may not actually take anything of value, the process of breaking into a car has other repercussions for the owner: time spent filling in forms with police and insurance companies and money spent on repairs and more expensive insurance premiums.An effective car alarm and immobiliser with stickers declaring the fact that they are both installed – and a steering lock or wheel nuts will also deter all but the most determined and foolhardy criminal. Making a car unappealing to thieves isnt difficult. Etching the vehicle registration number onto windscreens (front and back,) windows and headlights will make thieves think twice about taking a car, as they will about a car which has been parked in a secure area.While secure London parking might sound like a contradiction in terms, it is still possible to find secure parking in London if you look in the right place. Car parking in London in areas patrolled by CCTV or security are one option, while another is contacting 247 Parking for block-booked secure and cheap parking in London.The Article is written by 247parking.com providing London Parking and london parking Services.

Commonwealth Bank of Australia CEO apologies for financial planning scandal

Filed under: Uncategorized — @ 2:41 am, .

Thursday, July 3, 2014

Ian Narev, the CEO of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, this morning “unreservedly” apologised to clients who lost money in a scandal involving the bank’s financial planning services arm.

Last week, a Senate enquiry found financial advisers from the Commonwealth Bank had made high-risk investments of clients’ money without the clients’ permission, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars lost. The Senate enquiry called for a Royal Commission into the bank, and the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).

Mr Narev stated the bank’s performance in providing financial advice was “unacceptable”, and the bank was launching a scheme to compensate clients who lost money due to the planners’ actions.

In a statement Mr Narev said, “Poor advice provided by some of our advisers between 2003 and 2012 caused financial loss and distress and I am truly sorry for that. […] There have been changes in management, structure and culture. We have also invested in new systems, implemented new processes, enhanced adviser supervision and improved training.”

An investigation by Fairfax Media instigated the Senate inquiry into the Commonwealth Bank’s financial planning division and ASIC.

Whistleblower Jeff Morris, who reported the misconduct of the bank to ASIC six years ago, said in an article for The Sydney Morning Herald that neither the bank nor ASIC should be in control of the compensation program.
