The document summarizes findings from a survey of drivers and bicyclists in the Bay Area about perceived bicycle safety. Key findings include:
1) Frequent cyclists' safety concerns are most influenced by their own experiences and those of friends/family with near misses and collisions.
2) Infrequent cyclists are somewhat influenced by personal and friends'/family experiences.
3) Potential cyclists are slightly affected by friends'/family experiences.
4) Near misses need more attention in surveys to better understand safety risks.
The technical report provides details of Vendome Resources Corp.'s exploration and acquisition of three polymetallic projects totaling 16,865 hectares in Guerrero, Mexico. An exploration program was conducted on the 253 hectare San Javier property in 2012, identifying two drill targets. Broad Oak recommends a two-phase exploration program across the three properties to further evaluate their mineral potential.
Hype or necessity - recruiting prospective tenants from overseas that will dr...Aisling Cullen
The shopping mall sector is facing increasing competition not just for consumer attention, but also for the attention of retailers. With an oversupply of malls and an increasing supply in the pipeline, mall owners are clamouring to build the best tenant mix that attracts the highest footfall so they can remain in pole position.
Attracting these trendsetting brands isn’t easy. They can be demanding - requesting special deals in prime locations and capital contributions. But how do you get these retailers to bite in the first place and is it possible to convince these retailers to come to your mall without slashing your rental budget?
In this segment I will be discussing:
• Creating a point of difference in your mall with tenant mixing and positioning
• Trend spotting new retailers and concepts
• Retailer Clustering
• What do retailers want?
• Attracting overseas retailers to your mall
• How to balance the cost impact of a new retailer against budgets

Argumenta que se necesita ir más allá del análisis económico y político para comprender la situación y proponer soluciones holísticas que transformen la estructura social, las relaciones humanas y la cosmovisión subyacente.
