Investment decisions for pension funds by intangible value capitalJAYARAMAN IYER
Pension funds globally held record assets of $20.1 trillion in 2011 but experienced negative average returns of -1.7% due to falling stock markets. The US had the largest pension assets at $10.6 trillion but returns fell -3%. Pension funds most exposed to European sovereign debt also saw losses. Intangible Value Capital is proposed as a new framework to rate pension funds and corporate equity portfolios based on intellectual, emotional, and people capital to identify sustainable long-term performers and guide investment decisions. Rated companies with high intangible value are recommended for pension funds seeking more stable returns.

Europe is the second smallest continent with an area of 10.5 million square kilometers consisting of 44 countries.

Culturally, Europe is very diverse with influences from Christianity, Catholicism, Protestantism and more. Historically, Europe saw the rise and fall of the Roman Empire as well as the development of Islam in the Middle Ages and modern inventions in recent centuries. Famous landmarks include the Eiffel Tower, Colosseum, and Big Ben.
The OMG Data Distribution Service (DDS) has brought a disruptive wave of innovation into what is commonly referred to as “Messaging” technology. DDS raises the abstraction level from unstructured, or loosely structured, messages to sound data types that allow architects and application developers to deal with concepts close to their problem space as opposed to having to worry about “plumbing” -- as it happens as with many messaging technologies. As it is common for disruptive innovations to take some time to be digested, many people still see DDS as an ultra-fast real-time messaging -- yet this is only the tip of the iceberg.
This presentation will explain how Data Distribution is different from Messaging and as a result how DDS differs from messaging technologies such as JMS. The webcast will cover the architectural benefits brought by data centricity as well as how the features introduced by the recently adopted DDS specification on Dynamic and Extensible Topic Types will support the design of efficient, extensible and evolvable systems.

This document summarizes a social movement in Hong Kong to preserve the Star Ferry Pier and Queen's Pier from demolition. Artists began performing at Star Ferry Pier to express concerns about its demolition. This raised public awareness of the piers' cultural and historical significance. However, the government demolished the piers anyway, building a replica pier. Activists criticized early protests as too nostalgic, arguing they should focus on civic participation and cultural history rather than just memories. The movement grew as reports revealed the government misled the public about consultation on the demolition.
