The challenge of localization is not in the translation to Spanish or Portuguese (both Axapta and Oracle Financials are there), but rather in tax code adoption ? this is the biggest question in Brazil, in Spanish speaking part of Southern and Central America tax localization is not that complicated.

? Availability. Oracle E-Business Suite is traditionally available (due to Oracle campaign in 1990th) in LATAM and Brazil, Axapta is spreading across Spanish speaking countries, such as Colombia, Venezuela, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Mexico and now it is available in Brazil (April 2006)

? Offshore Manufacturing ERP. In the case of both Oracle and Axapta you can consider it to be installed and hosted at your headquarters, while local implementation and user training should be done by local consultants in LATAM/Brazil. If you are spread across multiple countries in South America ? consider regional partner (in Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro for example), who could serve your regional needs through dedicated call and support center with traveling consultants as needed. In some cases you can find LATAM consulting rates as reasonable and switch headquarters support to your LATAM Axapta or Oracle E-Business Suite partner.

When marriages fail

0 Comments | Buffalo News, May 21, 2009

Consider it one of the enduring inanities of Albany: The New York State Legislature appears to be on the verge of approving same-sex marriage but still won’t budge on the matter of divorce. This state is in the forefront of the fight to allow gays and lesbians to marry, but won’t let anyone end a marriage without first being mauled by the state’s antiquated and punitive — and expensive — divorce laws.

New York is the only state without a no-fault divorce system. To end a marriage here, either both parties must agree, and submit to a one-year separation, or one must accuse the other of cruel and inhuman treatment, adultery or, conversely, refusal to have sex for a year. The frequent results are prolonged proceedings, heightened animosity and, worst of all, children forced to choose sides as the angry process unfolds.

In fact, a New Yorker who no longer loves his or her spouse can be held hostage to a bad marriage if the other partner refuses to take the separation route. It happens.

The reasons New York clings to this terrible system are multiple. The Catholic Church opposes the change, as does the New York Chapter of the National Organization for Women. And, while some divorce lawyers are aggressively pushing for no-fault laws, the fact is that the current system fattens their bank accounts.

The State Legislature has long been beholden to the New York Trial Lawyers Association, and Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is, himself, a member of a New York City personal injury law firm. New York State laws are very kind to lawyers.

We understand the church’s objections; it has a legitimate point of view: A marriage is not a handshake deal. It’s meant to be a solemn commitment. But the church also opposes gay marriage and that isn’t stopping legislators from acting.

Sometimes marriages are mistaken. People grow apart. Yes, it’s possible that strict divorce laws can push partners to bridge their differences, but they can also impoverish them or force them to stay in a marriage of misery. There are better ways, and 49 other states offer possibilities.

We hold no illusions about this

It is a good safety feature that you may want to consider.

When extinguishing the overthrow, first close the lid of the charcoal grill so that you smother the fire by depriving it of oxygen. Once the charcoal has cooled a bit, use long handled tongs to safely transfer the charcoal into a metal container, you may even want to oust them in water first, or simultaneously immerse them in water to kill off burning embers.

A really important thing for your charcoal grill to have is good, strong sturdy legs ? you don?t want your dinner toppling over into the dirt! And you certainly don’t want it falling over and burning people or property. You also want a cooking surface that?s big enough for your needs ? are you cooking for one or two? Or do you need enough space to cook for a veritable picnic full of people?

You must also, of course, pick up some charcoal.

Making Bankruptcy Affordable

PR Newswire, July 18, 2010

If you can’t pay your debts, how do you pay the costs to go bankrupt?

SALT LAKE CITY, July 18 /PRNewswire/ — Utah Bankruptcy Law Center (UBLC) www.ublconline.com has made it a primary goal of the organization to help financially stressed consumers afford to file for bankruptcy. “The main mission of the UBLC law firm is to assist regular people and small businesses to navigate through the legal bankruptcy maze, and actually be able to afford to obtain debt relief,” says Sarah J Beck, UBLC’s supervising attorney. “Sadly, people find that the costs that most lawyers charge, coupled with the credit counseling fees required by Congress and the bankruptcy court filing fee, are the final straws that ultimately break their backs,” Ms. Beck believes.

Consumers feel creditors have the upper-hand and economic means to pulverize them in a financial fight over things like lenders liability and usury. In fact, Congress passed The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, largely in response to the whining by bank and credit card company lobbyists, who said that it was too easy for consumers to file for bankruptcy. Forget that the majority of banks and other credit providers charge outrageous 20% to 80% interest, as well as disguised or hidden fees. It’s akin to the proverbial David and Goliath story of old: consumer as David, financial companies as Goliath. UBLC wants to help the consumer aim their stones strategically at the spots that will drop the greedy financial giants.

According to Ms. Beck, UBLC has established a means-based policy for establishing fees on both a client-by-client and circumstance-by-circumstance basis. UBLC will also help clients by financing their legal fees, free of charge. “If we could do all the legal work pro bono, we would in many cases. Unfortunately, that is not possible. The UBLC law firm would also go broke in the process,” said Ms. Beck.

“We get calls every day, where people express suicidal thoughts because of the extreme stress caused by their loss of a job, wage garnishments, repossessions – and the real biggie – a looming foreclosure of their home

Having an optical mouse will help give you an edge over those who don’t have one. Again one that hooks up via USB is preferable, but be aware that since these types use batteries they will need to be replaced frequently.

Some of the console games will require a gamepad and many of those you get for your computer will be set up identical to the ones for the console game players. Make sure it fits well in your hands, look for a USB connection and take the time to play with them in the store if you can to get a feel for which one you like the best.

A high quality speaker system with at least two speakers and a subwoofer are a must have for gaming.

Anything that promotes better communication between a husband and wife can be a good thing. Instead, there can be a problem with the counselor herself. Specifically, the counselor?s training and style of practice can make a difference in the counseling the couple gets.

Look for a true couple?s counselor

There are many therapists that claim to be couples? therapists. This claim is based on the assumption that two people create a couple. A couple is not a headcount, but rather two individuals who share an intimate and complex bond with one another. A couple is a unique entity that is more than just the sum of the two personalities. Some so-called couple?s therapists treat couples the same way they treat individuals, thus leading to some serious counseling problems. Individual therapists work to discover the wants and needs of the individual. Whenever a couple has incompatible needs and wants there is a danger that the counselor who was trained as an individual therapist will take sides. It?s this incompatibility that caused the couple to seek a marriage counselor in the first place.
