This document describes the Lexcivitas project, which aims to create a website that educates citizens about urban development legislation and supports them in reporting illegal construction activities in Bucharest, Romania. The project is led by Daniel Velicu and Nicusor Dan of the Asociatia Salvati Bucurestiul NGO. They have already built a draft version of the website at http://lexcivitas.ro and are seeking support to further develop it and add content to help citizens understand their rights and how to report suspicious urban planning issues.
The document discusses the growth of social media and its impact on communications and business. Some key points:
- 2 billion people now use the internet globally, and social media engagement continues rising, with over 2/3 of internet users on social platforms.
- Social media has democratized communications, allowing anyone to share content with just a few clicks. It is ubiquitous but not monolithic, with many different platforms and formats.
- Major social media companies like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn have grown enormously, some going public with multibillion-dollar valuations, showing the major impact and business potential of social media.
Dios le da al hablante instrucciones para vivir en la tierra comparándolo con la naturaleza como el sol, la luna, los pájaros, las flores y más. Le dice que sea como el sol al levantarse temprano, como la luna al brillar en la oscuridad pero someterse a la luz mayor, y como los pájaros al comer, cantar y volar. Le pide también que sea como el buen perro al ser obediente a su Señor, y como el agua al ser bueno y transparente.

GAAP earnings were $0.45 per share compared to $0.94 per share in the prior year. The decrease in ongoing and GAAP earnings was primarily due to lower wholesale sales, higher O&M costs, and common stock dilution. However, most business lines delivered results consistent with plans. Progress Energy reaffirmed its 2004 earnings guidance of $3.50 to $3.65 per share. Significant events in the quarter included renewing the Robinson Nuclear Plant license for 20 additional years and completing a power uprate at Brunswick Nuclear Unit 1.

DTE Energy reported lower third quarter earnings compared to the previous year. Earnings were down due to a decline in operating earnings at Detroit Edison, impacted by mild weather and loss of customers to electric choice programs.

Management expects resolutions to rate cases and improvements to electric choice programs to strengthen earnings in 2005.
DTE Energy reported lower third quarter earnings compared to the previous year. Earnings were $93 million compared to $176 million in 2003.

Progress Energy reported first quarter 2006 earnings of $0.18 per share, down from $0.38 per share in the first quarter of 2005. Core ongoing earnings were $0.45 per share, lower than the $0.53 per share in the prior year due to unfavorable weather and higher costs, partially offset by increased sales. Non-core ongoing earnings increased to $0.06 per share due to prior year reversals and gains on sales. The company reaffirmed 2006 core ongoing earnings guidance of $2.45 to $2.65 per share but did not provide guidance for non-core earnings due to uncertainty around synthetic fuel tax credits. Recent developments included the successful resolution of an IRS audit and
DTE Energy reported lower second quarter earnings compared to the previous year, but operating earnings were higher.

Progress Energy announces its 2007 second-quarter results. It reported a GAAP loss of $0.75 per share compared to a loss of $0.19 per share for the same period last year, due to losses from exiting its merchant energy segment.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

1. Progress Energy Announces Third Quarter Results
Highlights:
♦ Reports quarterly ongoing earnings of $1.01 per share, GAAP earnings of $1.25 per share
♦ Strong core business earnings offset by non-recurring reduction in synthetic fuel
production from reduced 2004 regular tax liability
♦ Reports year-to-date ongoing earnings of $2.44 per share, GAAP earnings of $2.33 per
share
♦ Reaffirms revised 2004 ongoing earnings guidance of $2.95 to $3.10 per share
♦ Announces development in IRS audit of Earthco synthetic fuel facilities
RALEIGH, N.C. (November 4, 2004) – Progress Energy [NYSE: PGN] today reported ongoing
earnings of $244 million, or $1.01 per share, for the third quarter of 2004 compared with ongoing
earnings of $305 million, or $1.28 per share, for the third quarter of 2003. Reported consolidated net
income under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was $303 million, or $1.25 per share,
for the quarter compared with reported consolidated net income of $318 million, or $1.33 per share, for
the third quarter of 2003. See the table below for a reconciliation of ongoing earnings per share to
GAAP earnings per share.
“Our core businesses – Progress Energy Carolinas, Progress Energy Florida, and Progress Ventures
excluding synthetic fuels – were solid performers during the quarter.” said Bob McGehee, chairman,
president and CEO. quot;We have seen some good momentum in these businesses, which have enjoyed
revenue growth that we have converted into net income growth.”
“Our service territories – particularly Florida – were severely impacted by Hurricanes Charley,
Frances, Ivan and Jeanne,” said McGehee. “I am extremely proud of the way our employees met the
challenges presented by those unprecedented four hurricanes. We will work with Florida government
officials to establish a method to recover storm-related costs in a way that moderates the impact on
customers.”
The primary negative ongoing earnings driver for the quarter was a decrease in synthetic fuel
production and the reversal of tax credits as a result of hurricane costs that reduced the company’s
projected 2004 regular tax liability. Positive ongoing earnings drivers during the quarter included
2. increased retail revenues at the utilities from customer growth and usage, favorable purchased power
costs and the additional return on the investment in the Hines 2 plant at the utilities. In addition, the
current quarter had reduced O&M expense from decreased benefit costs and the timing of maintenance
projects and nuclear outage planning activities relative to the prior period.
Ongoing earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, were $590 million, or $2.44 per
share, compared with ongoing earnings of $661 million, or $2.80 per share, for the same period in
2003. Reported GAAP consolidated net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, was
$565 million, or $2.33 per share, compared with consolidated net income of $694 million, or $2.94 per
share, for the same period in 2003.
“We are reaffirming our previously revised 2004 ongoing earnings guidance of $2.95 to $3.10 per
share, and we remain committed to improving our financial flexibility,” said McGehee.
The following table provides a reconciliation of ongoing earnings per share to reported GAAP earnings

3. SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS
Progress Energy Receives IRS Field Auditors’ Report on Earthco Synthetic Fuel Facilities
On October 29, 2004, Progress Energy received the IRS field auditors’ report on the placed in service
issue for the company’s four Earthco facilities. The field auditors concluded that the Earthco facilities
were not placed in service by the required date of June 30, 1998, and therefore the auditors
recommended that the tax credits produced by those facilities be disallowed. The company continues
to believe that the Earthco facilities were placed in service before July 1, 1998, and therefore meet the
standard for receiving the credits. The actual operation of the facilities, the actual production of
synthetic fuel, the engineer reports and affidavits and the videotapes of the pre-July 1, 1998, operations
all attest to that fact. Also, the company does not believe that the field auditors are applying the
appropriate legal standard for determining whether the facilities were placed in service as of the
required date. The company plans to contest the field auditors’ findings and their proposed
disallowance of the Earthco tax credits.
Progress Energy Storm Cost Filings
Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne struck various parts of the company’s service territories
in Florida and the Carolinas over a two-month period. These storms inflicted significant damage on the
company’s utility infrastructure. Restoration of the company’s systems from hurricane-related damage
is estimated at $379 million. Progress Energy Carolinas has estimated restoration costs of $13 million,
of which $12 million has been charged to O&M expense and $1 million was charged to capital
expenditures. Progress Energy Carolinas is planning to seek deferral of 2004 storm costs from the
North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC). Progress Energy Florida has estimated total costs of
$366 million, of which $55 million has been charged to capital expenditures, and $311 million has
been charged to the storm damage reserve pursuant to a regulatory order.
Progress Energy Florida’s storm damage reserve balance at September 30, 2004, was $45 million. The
application of $311 million of hurricane restoration costs to the reserve resulted in a negative balance
in the storm reserve of $266 million. On November 2, 2004, Progress Energy Florida filed a petition
with FPSC to expedite the recovery of $252 million of storm reserve costs from retail ratepayers over a
two-year period. The remaining storm reserve costs of $14 million are attributable to wholesale
customers. The company believes that such costs are recoverable. The complete press release regarding
this filing is available on the company’s Web site at: http://www.progress-
energy.com/aboutus/news/article.asp?id=10722.
Progress Energy Submits License Renewal Application for Brunswick Nuclear Plant

to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requesting 20 additional years of operation for
the two-unit Brunswick Nuclear Plant. The new operating licenses would allow Unit 2 to operate until
December 27, 2034 and Unit 1 until September 8, 2036. The NRC's license renewal safety review is a
detailed process that typically takes approximately two years to complete. The complete press release
regarding this announcement is available on the company’s Web site at: http://www.progress-

4. Progress Energy Responds to Moody’s Ratings Action
On October 20, 2004, Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) credit rating agency announced that it
affirmed its ratings on Progress Energy and changed the rating outlook to negative from stable.
Moody’s also placed the ratings of Progress Energy Florida under review for possible downgrade and
affirmed the ratings of Progress Energy Carolinas. Moody’s stated that it took this action primarily due
to uncertainty regarding the timing of recovery of the hurricane costs in Florida and its impact on
continuing balance sheet improvement. The company believes that several of Moody’s short-term
concerns will be addressed within the next six to nine months. The complete press release regarding
this announcement is available on the company’s Web site at: http://www.corporate-
ir.net/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=PGN&script=410&layout=0&item_id=634045.
Progress Energy Responds to Standard & Poor’s Ratings Action
On October 19, 2004, Standard and Poor's (S&P) credit rating agency announced that it revised its
ratings outlook on Progress Energy, Progress Energy Carolinas and Progress Energy Florida to
negative from stable. S&P stated that it took this action primarily due to uncertainty regarding the
timing of recovery of the hurricane costs in Florida and its impact on continuing balance sheet
improvement. The company continues to be committed to improving its credit metrics in support of a
stable investment-grade credit rating and has ample liquidity to meet all of its anticipated needs. The
complete press release regarding this announcement is available on the company’s Web site at:

Progress Energy Announces Cost-Management Initiative
On October 12, 2004, Progress Energy announced to its employees a cost-management initiative to
analyze the size and structure of the entire organization and reduce projected operating expenses over
the next three years. This initiative is focused on reducing the rate of cost increases throughout the
company. These cost initiatives will likely require some workforce reductions. Among the options
being considered is a voluntary early-retirement program. By 2007, the company is estimating total
reduction in annual recurring costs of at least $75 million from this cost management initiative.
Progress Energy Declares Quarterly Dividend
On September 17, 2004, Progress Energy’s board of directors declared a dividend on the Progress
Energy common stock. The quarterly dividend was declared at $0.575 per share, payable on
November 1, 2004, to shareholders of record as of October 11, 2004. The complete press release
regarding this announcement is available on the company’s Web site at: http://www.progress-

LINE-OF-BUSINESS FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Progress Energy Carolinas
Progress Energy Carolinas electric energy operations contributed GAAP net income of $175 million
for the quarter compared with $160 million for the same period last year. This quarter’s earnings were
positively affected by increased revenues from customer growth and usage, increased other margin
from a reduction in purchased power costs and reduced O&M charges related to lower pension and
other postretirement benefits (OPEB) expense relative to the prior period. These factors were partially
offset by lower wholesale sales.
Progress Energy Carolinas incurred approximately $12 million of O&M costs for hurricane restoration
during the quarter compared with $14 million of storm restoration costs in the prior quarter for
Hurricane Isabel. Progress Energy Carolinas is planning to seek deferral of 2004 storm costs from the
NCUC.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, Progress Energy Carolinas electric energy operations
contributed GAAP net income of $388 million compared with $383 million for the same period last
year.
See the attached Supplemental Data schedules for additional information on Progress Energy Carolinas
electric revenues, energy sales, energy supply and weather impacts.
Progress Energy Florida
Progress Energy Florida electric energy operations contributed GAAP net income of $140 million for
the quarter compared with $115 million for the same period last year. This quarter’s earnings were
positively affected by increased revenues from customer growth and usage, favorable weather, the
additional return on the investment in the Hines 2 plant that was placed into service in December 2003,
5
6. increased wholesale sales and lower O&M charges. O&M charges decreased in the current quarter
partially due to a decrease in pension and OPEB expense and the timing of maintenance projects that
were delayed in the current quarter due to storm restoration efforts. These projects are expected to be
resumed during the fourth quarter. O&M charges were also favorably impacted by the absence of
nuclear outage planning activities that occurred in the prior period. These factors were partially offset
by decreased revenues from the hurricanes and increased interest costs. Interest costs in 2003 were
favorably impacted by the reversal of interest expense accrued for resolved tax matters.
Progress Energy Florida incurred estimated total hurricane restoration costs of $366 million during the
quarter, of which $55 million has been charged to capital expenditures, and $311 million has been
charged to the storm damage reserve pursuant to a regulatory order. Progress Energy Florida’s storm
damage reserve balance at September 30, 2004, was $45 million. The application of $311 million of
hurricane restoration costs to the reserve resulted in a negative balance in the storm reserve of $266
million. On November 2, 2004, Progress Energy Florida filed a petition with FPSC to expedite the
recovery of $252 million of storm reserve costs from retail ratepayers over a two-year period. The
remaining storm reserve costs of $14 million are attributable to wholesale customers. The company
believes that such costs are recoverable.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, Progress Energy Florida electric energy operations
contributed GAAP net income of $273 million compared with $247 million for the same period last
year.
See the attached Supplemental Data schedules for additional information on Progress Energy Florida
electric revenues, energy sales, energy supply and weather impacts.
Progress Ventures
The Progress Ventures operations consist of Progress Fuels, which includes natural gas production,
coal mining, coal terminal services, synthetic fuels production and fuels transportation and delivery,
and Competitive Commercial Operations, which includes nonregulated generation and energy
marketing activities. The Progress Ventures business unit had a GAAP net loss of $21 million for the
quarter compared with GAAP net income of $92 million for the same period last year.
Progress Fuels generated a GAAP net loss of $36 million for the quarter compared with GAAP net
income of $79 million for the same period last year. The decrease resulted primarily from lower
synthetic fuel production during the quarter, which was partially offset by increased gas prices and
volumes and increased coal margins. Within Progress Fuels, synthetic fuels operations generated a
GAAP net loss of $57 million for the quarter compared with GAAP net income of $60 million for the
same period last year. The decrease in earnings resulted primarily from the reversal of $79 million of
tax credits due to the reduction in the company’s projected 2004 tax liability from hurricane costs and
lower synthetic fuel sales. In addition, earnings in the prior quarter included a $13 million favorable
tax credit true-up from 2002. Total synthetic fuel sales were 2.1 million tons for the quarter compared
with 3.0 million tons for the same period last year.
Competitive Commercial Operations contributed GAAP net income of $15 million for the quarter
compared with net income of $13 million for the same period last year. This quarter’s results were
6
7. positively impacted by an increase in margins from serving new and existing contracts. In addition,
there was an increase in power sales in the spot market driven by favorable weather and by the addition
of the Effingham plant placed into service in August 2003. These items were partially offset by higher
fixed charges on the Effingham plant.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Progress Ventures business unit had GAAP net
income of $80 million compared with $199 million for the same period last year. Progress Fuels
generated GAAP net income of $69 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, compared
with $176 million for the same period last year. Within Progress Fuels, synthetic fuels operations
generated GAAP net income of $15 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, compared
with $143 million for the same period last year. Competitive Commercial Operations contributed
GAAP net income of $11 million compared with $23 million for the same period last year.
The impact of storm costs from Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne substantially reduced the
company’s projected 2004 tax liability. The reduction in income tax liability led to a decrease in
synthetic fuel production because of the company’s diminished ability to recognize corresponding
Section 29 tax credits. Total synthetic fuel sales were 7.7 million tons for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, compared with 8.5 million tons for the same period last year. The company’s
ability to recognize tax credits in 2004 is now based on approximately 5 million tons of sales.
Other Businesses
Other businesses include Progress Rail, Progress Telecom and other small subsidiaries. Other
businesses had GAAP net income of $8 million for the quarter compared with a GAAP net loss of $3
million for the same period last year. This quarter’s results were positively impacted by strong sales in
the recycling operations at Progress Rail.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, other businesses reported a GAAP net loss of $15
million compared with a GAAP net loss of $2 million for the same period in the prior year.
Progress Rail
Progress Rail had GAAP net income of $8 million for the quarter compared with $1 million for
the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher volumes and prices in
recycling operations and in part to increased production and sales in locomotive and railcar
services and engineering and track services.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, Progress Rail reported GAAP net income of
$17 million compared with a GAAP net loss of less than $1 million for the same period in the
prior year.
Progress Telecom
Progress Telecom recorded a GAAP net loss of $0.4 million for the quarter compared with
GAAP net loss of $0.2 million for the same period last year.
7
8. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, Progress Telecom reported a net loss of $3
million compared with net income of $1 million for the same period in the prior year.
Corporate
Corporate results, which primarily include interest expense on holding company debt, posted ongoing
operating losses of $58 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2004 and 2003.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, corporate results had an operating loss of $165 million
compared with an operating loss of $164 million for the same period in the prior year.
ONGOING EARNINGS ADJUSTMENTS
Progress Energy’s management uses ongoing earnings per share to evaluate the operations of the
company and to establish goals for management and employees. Management believes this
presentation is appropriate and enables investors to compare more accurately the company’s ongoing
financial performance over the periods presented. Ongoing earnings as presented here may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciling adjustments from
GAAP earnings to ongoing earnings as they relate to the current quarter and information included in
the Supplemental Data schedules are as follows:
Intraperiod Tax Allocation
Generally accepted accounting principles require companies to apply an effective tax rate to interim
periods that is consistent with a company’s estimated annual tax rate. The tax credits generated from
synthetic fuel operations reduce Progress Energy’s overall effective tax rate. The company’s synthetic
fuel sales are not subject to seasonal fluctuations to the same extent as the electric utility earnings. The
company projects the effective tax rate for the year and then, based upon projected operating income
for each quarter, raises or lowers the tax expense recorded in that quarter to reflect the projected tax
rate. On the other hand, operating losses incurred to produce the tax credits are included in the current
quarter. The resulting tax adjustment increased earnings per share by $0.16 for the quarter, and by
$0.15 for the same period last year, but has no impact on the company’s annual earnings. Since this
adjustment varies by quarter but has no impact on Progress Energy’s annual earnings, management
believes this adjustment is not representative of the company’s ongoing quarterly earnings.
Contingent Value Obligation (CVO) Mark-to-Market
In connection with the acquisition of Florida Progress Corporation, Progress Energy issued 98.6
million CVOs. Each CVO represents the right to receive contingent payments based on after-tax cash
flows above certain levels of four synthetic fuel facilities purchased by subsidiaries of Florida Progress
Corporation in October 1999. The CVOs are debt instruments and, under GAAP, are valued at market
value. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in market value are recognized in earnings each
quarter. The CVO mark-to-market increased earnings per share by $0.08 for the quarter and decreased
earnings per share by $0.02 for the same period last year. Since changes in the market value of the
8
9. CVOs do not affect the company’s underlying obligation, management does not consider the
adjustment a component of ongoing earnings.
NCNG Discontinued Operations
The sale of NCNG to Piedmont Natural Gas closed on September 30, 2003, and the net proceeds were
used to pay down debt. The operations of NCNG are reported as discontinued operations in the
accompanying financial statements due to its sale, and therefore management does not believe this
activity is representative of the ongoing operations of the company. NCNG had discontinued earnings
of $19 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2003.
SRS Litigation Settlement
In June 2004, SRS, a subsidiary of the company, reached a settlement agreement in a civil suit with the
San Francisco Unified School District. As a result, the company recorded a charge of approximately
$29 million after-tax in the second quarter 2004. Management does not believe this settlement charge
is indicative of ongoing operations of the company.
Cumulative Effect of Accounting Changes
Progress Energy recorded the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles due to the adoption
of new FASB accounting guidance. The impact to Progress Energy was due primarily to the new
FASB guidance related to the accounting for certain contracts. This guidance discusses whether the
pricing in a contract that contains broad market indices qualifies for certain exceptions that would not
require the contract to be recorded at its fair value. Progress Energy Carolinas has a purchase power
contract with Broad River LLC that did not meet the criteria for an exception, and a fair value
adjustment was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2003. Due to the nonrecurring nature of these types of
adjustments, management believes it is not representative of the 2003 operations of Progress Energy.
Impairments and One-Time Charges
During the fourth quarter of 2003, the company recorded after-tax impairments of its Affordable
Housing portfolio and certain assets at the Kentucky May Coal Company. Management does not
believe these impairments and one-time charges are representative of the ongoing operations of the
company.

impact to our financial condition and performance in the event that we are required to refund
previously taken Section 29 tax credits; our ability to manage the risks involved with the operation of
our nonregulated plants, including dependence on third parties and related counter-party risks, and a
lack of operating history; our ability to manage the risks associated with our energy marketing
operations; the outcome of any ongoing or future litigation or similar disputes and the impact of any
10
11. such outcome or related settlements; and unanticipated changes in operating expenses and capital
expenditures. Many of these risks similarly impact our subsidiaries.
These and other risk factors are detailed from time to time in our SEC reports. All such factors are
difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect actual results, and may be beyond
our ability to control or estimate precisely. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible
for management to predict all such factors or to assess the effect each such factor will have on us.

ONGOING EARNINGS BY BUSINESS LINE
The following table provides an update to Progress Energy’s 2004 projected ongoing earnings
through the third quarter of 2004. On September 24, 2004, Progress Energy revised its 2004
ongoing earnings per share guidance to $2.95 to $3.10 per share from $3.50 to $3.65 per share.
This revision was due to a decrease in synthetic fuel production as a result of hurricane costs
that reduced the company’s projected 2004 regular tax liability.

2003 Quarterly Restatement of Subsidiary Reporting Period Change
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company ceased recording portions of the Progress Fuels' segment operations,
primarily synthetic fuel facilities, one month in arrears. As a result, earnings for the year ended December 31, 2003 included
13 months of these operations, resulting in a net income increase of $2 million for the year. The Company restated previously
reported consolidated quarterly earnings to reflect the new reporting periods, resulting in four months of earnings in the restated
first quarter 2003 net income. The resulting impact for each quarter is outlined in the tables below.
