Til Landsråd i morgen

Nikolaj Hawaleschka Stenberg — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 14:29:18 +0000

I morgen går det så løs. Igen. Det årlige landsråd (og efterfølgende fest) i Danmarks Konservative Studerende, hvor jeg -- som noget helt nyt -- er kandidat til en forretningsudvalgspost. Det skal nok blive spændende at se hvad der sker.

Til min store glæde afholder vi det dels i Århus, dels i den kollegiebar, som jeg er kasserer i.

Men hvorfor lige Konservative Studerende? Du er jo liberal, Nikolaj!
Ja, det er rigtigt. Men det var Thatcher også, og hun havde det fint med at være med i et såkaldt konservativt parti. Desuden -- og desværre -- ser det ud til, at Konservative p.t. er det eneste rigtige parti, som faktisk vil bare et eller andet på skatteområdet.

new trend chart technical analysis for January 11, 2008 stocks

the finance ninja — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 17:42:40 +0000

I've got the time to upload some new trend charts I'm studying to see them just click on the flickr trend picture column or click here to see my flickr page of all my trend charts.

trend charts include: AAPL, ATVI, C, DKS, FXI, HOKU, HANS, MA, INP, TTM, YHOO, GOOG, RIG, SWN, RIMM

check out INP. I've seen this stock go from $48 to now $112. Like FXI I think it still has much room to grow with small downs and big moves up with India's major growth. I believe TTM will start to follow india stocks with its new plan for $2500 car.

check out AAPL. will it get support at current price levels ($172)? major trend will be breached soon if Mac Expo 08' and earning on january 18th do not give investors reasons to keep charging the stock up. If you look at any other tech stock right now BIDU, GOOG, RIMM charts show in favor of major downtrend to form if negative opinions continue on the economy.

btw - only 70 pages left of Alan Greenspans book! great book and very insightful.

Dicks Sporting Goods (DKS @ $32) up 7% since my last post.

the finance ninja — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 02:38:57 +0000

Dicks Sporting Goods stores (DKS @ $32) stock price is up 7% from after I reported on its earnings. The sporting goods retail stock has been slipping with all the other major giant retailers such as Sears Holding (SHLD @ $112) and Macy's (M @ $30). Since earnings it has risen about $2 after being upgraded the second day after earnings by Citigroup (C @ $31). Practicing the play on options/real trade you would of made a 75% ROI on JAN 30 CALLS for DKS. Bought around $2 and sold around $3.50. Of course you would of traded this if you had your head screwed on straight and were not in demolishing belittling DEC 30 PUTS for Apple Inc. (AAPL @ $171.50) up probably 6 pts from where I bought the PUTS which are going to $0. Yes - yes - yes the likely hood that I could of took a small loss, well big to most people, at -$300 on a $1000 trade (-30%). I'm currently at a value of $250 for my 10 contracts. I think Apple is a hot company, but I was 100% sure this second run one the last until the New Year. I was definitely wrong. I think I need to take a long break from trading any stock. Even a majority of my stock practice plays are failing. I've also noticed all my very short-term plays (in and out within 1 1/2 day) for the most part 90% work earning an average of around 5-10% per trade because the stock market is currently going up and down so much that by the 4-7th day in my option practice trade my options intrinsic value is becoming less and less even if the stock is going my way. Something I think is what makes Dick's Sporting Goods a "hot pick" that is bound to go up is because its brand name is advertised all over ESPN's basketball and football games. It's subconsciously telling little boys and girls all over the world to buy from Dick's. I have a Dicks Sporting Goods in my hometown of Virginia Beach and I have to admit its really simple nice store with a very good selection priced for the average consumer.

Conclusions: Well my DEC PUT is good until December 21st so I have a little less than 30 days for Apple Inc. stock basically to fall to around $150 to become profitable and sell out. I am 100% against depositing money into my account. I just "feel" like I am going to lose it! And any trader's book says if you feel like you are not 100% confident about your trade you probably should not be trading and likely to lose. I know I have better trading skills then what I have been actually putting out. I need to put more research into trading a stock - before I trade a stock. Currently trades I consider won't work to practice on ARE WORKING so I know it isn't 100% my error either. The market is definitely a bit nutty with all this bad credit mortgage news and thriving tech companies.

Blir DKS-pengene anvendt på en god nok måte?

EstNet — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 14:19:17 +0000

I Aftenposten 07.11.07 skriver Helle Riis og Anne Ragnhild Sti (i kraft av å både være mødre til skolebarn og høgskolelektorer på Høgskolen i Telemark) et innlegg der det blir satt spørsmålstegn ved anvendelsen og utbyttet av de 169 millioner kronene som er satset i prosjekter innenfor Den Kulturelle skolesekken (DKS).

I artikkelen slår de fast at det er hevet over enhver tvil at DKS- prosjekter har gitt tusenvis av barn og unge gode kunst- og kulturopplevelser, og et kjærkomment avbrekk i hverdagen. Men er dette nok?

Riis og Sti peker på at en av intensjonene bak DKS-prosjektene var at kunstopplevelsen skulle inngå i ett eller flere av skolens læringsmål. Dette krever at læreren legger til rette for både for- og etterarbeid, noe som igjen krever innsikt i det kunstpedagogiske kunnskapsfeltet. Men lærerutdanningen er i dag lagt opp slik at en lærerstudentene i praksis velge kunstfagene helt bort. Dette får den naturlige konsekvens at målsettingene til DKS vanskelig kan realiseres.

Det er paradoksalt at politikerne vil at DKS skal innlemmes i skolens læringsmål, samtidig som de har laget en lærerutdanning som ikke sørger for at lærerstudenter får et minimum av estetisk kompetanse, skriver Riis og Sti videre.

Deutscher Presserat und gefährliche Probleme mit YAMAHA Motorrädern

motorrad — Fri, 16 Mar 2007 17:21:25 +0000

Eine öffentliche Rüge erhielt das Motorradmagazin PS wegen einer Notiz über eine Rückrufaktion eines Motorradherstellers. Der Hersteller hatte bestimmte Motorräder zur Behebung eines technischen Problems in die Werkstatt zurückgerufen und dabei in einer Pressemitteilung mitgeteilt, dass dieses Phänomen nicht sicherheitsrelevant sei. In der Notiz hatte die Redaktion dann formuliert, dass keine Gefahr bestehe und die Händler dieses lästige Problem beheben könnten. Der Ausschuss kritisierte, dass die Zeitschrift sich damit die Aussage der Pressemitteilung ungeprüft zu eigen gemacht hat. Es hätte eines Hinweises bedurft, dass die Aussage ausschließlich auf Angaben des Herstellers beruht. Dies war ein Verstoß gegen Ziffer 2 des Pressekodex. Homepage Presserat, PS (BK2-313/06) Ziffer 2

Hinweis: Am 4. Januar 2007 ist bei der READERS EDITION ein Artikel "RAPEX: Gefährliche YAMAHA-Motorräder" erschienen.
