L’attività di XXXXX, nata a Milano nel 1913, è cresciuta negli anni secondo una scelta strategica che prevede il diretto controllo di tutte le fasi del ciclo creativo, progettuale, produttivo, distributivo, commerciale e della comunicazione, coniugando il massimo rigore qualitativo e la cura maniacale dei dettagli, tipici della produzione artigianale, con l’efficienza dei processi industriali.

In XXXXX la creatività, vero e proprio elemento qualificante di ogni attività del Gruppo, si manifesta e viene esaltata non solo dal punto di vista industriale, nella ricerca di soluzioni stilistiche innovative e nella continua sperimentazione di forme, tessuti, pellami e tecniche di produzione, ma anche dal punto di vista sociale e culturale, come dimostrano l’ideazione di modelli rivoluzionari nella vendita e nella relazione con i clienti (gli Epicentri), e il costante dialogo con il mondo dell’arte, dell’architettura, del cinema e della fotografia.
Grazie a questo approccio caratteristico, il Gruppo XXXXX si presenta come un vero interprete del lusso a livello globale, in grado di comunicare con sensibilità e stili di vita diversi in tutto il mondo e di proporre attraverso ogni prodotto una sintesi inimitabile di creatività, qualità ed esclusività.

SAIBA COMO SER MELHOR POLÍTICO
Quando votamos e o nosso partido não venceu as eleições, acabamos por fazer parte da oposição sim, também nós os eleitores, confiando o poder respectivo ao nosso voto nos políticos que nos representam. Ora, a oposição – que como a própria terminologia define – tem a escolha de fazer frente ao poder, criando barreiras às acções defendidas pelos políticos no poder, ou de apoiar as decisões quando estas favorecem os interesses da população.
Uma oposição ‘por princípio’ contribui para que o nosso planeta se enterre mais e mais profundamente nos vícios que o conduzem à autodestruição. No contexto do desenvolvimento sustentável do planeta está muito claro e é técnica e cientificamente consensual que a todos os níveis os nossos comportamentos têm de mudar. É necessário um esforço de concertação ao nível dos nossos políticos, de solidariedade entre as populações e de cooperação entre os actores económicos da nossa sociedade para se poderem criar as condições para a mudança de comportamentos que é imprescindível.
O novo filme ‘Uma Verdade Inconveniente’ de Al Gore diz-nos que temos 10 anos para evitar que a autodestruição do nosso planeta se torne uma realidade irreversível. Poderá ser
verdade ou não – mas o que é certo é que não temos o direito de roubar às gerações vindouras a possibilidade de viverem – todas as pessoas - com a mais alta qualidade de vida que a nossa civilização lhes pode proporcionar. E se continuarmos a contaminar os ecossistemas e a abusar dos recursos do planeta, ao ritmo que o estamos a fazer hoje, vamos certamente ser julgados como antepassados criminosos, isto partindo do pressuposto que na altura do julgamento o ser humano não é uma das espécies extintas…
Para a sociedade ter ascondições que precisa para mudar também a oposição política precisa de seassociar àquelas acções relevantes que permitem o desenvolvimento rumo à sustentabilidade da sociedade que representam.
Translation - English ENGLISH TARGET TEXT:
HOW TO BE A BETTER POLITICIAN
When we vote and our party does not win the elections, we end up becoming ‘the opposition.’ This is what happens to us, as voters, when we entrust the power relating to our vote in the politicians representing us. The ‘opposition,’ as the name suggests, now have the choice of facing up to the ruling party, obstructing the policies implemented by the politicians in power, or supporting their decisions when they are in the interest of the public.
To oppose ‘on principle’ only means that our planet will bury itself deeper and deeper in the wrongdoings that drive it to self-destruction. In the context of the planet’s sustained development, it is totally obvious, and scientifically and technically recognised, that our behaviour has to change at all levels. In order to create the right conditions for the necessary changes in human behaviour a consolidated effort from our politicians is needed, as is solidarity between nationalities, and cooperation amongst our societies’ economic players.
The new film directed by Al Gore, ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ tells us that we have ten years left to prevent the self-destruction of our planet from becoming an irrevocable reality. This may or may not be true, but what is certain is that we do not have the right to deprive future generations, and all people, of the opportunity to live the best quality life that our civilisation can provide for them. If we continue to pollute ecosystems and to overuse the planet’s natural resources at the rate at which we are doing today, we are definitely going to be judged as the criminals ancestors, assuming that on Judgement Day human beings are not one of the species already extinct.
For society to achieve the conditions needed in order to change, the political opposition needs to back relevant policies that support development aimed at the sustainability of the society that they represent.

Italian to English: Financial report
Source text - Italian I Piccoli operatori economici (Poe) italiani, ovvero le imprese con meno di 10 addetti e/o 2,5 milioni di euro di fatturato, hanno registrato nel 2006 un incremento nel numero degli investitori (che salgono dal 39% al 43%, registrando un +10,26%) rispetto all’anno precedente, favoriti dalla ripresa dell’economia italiana dopo quattro anni di sostanziale stagnazione. Pur trattandosi di un valore molto al di sotto dei dati registrati negli anni precedenti al 2005, segna una significativa inversione di tendenza rispetto all’ultimo anno, alla quale si aggiunge l’incremento delle intenzioni di investimento per il 2007, a dimostrazione del fatto che nel corso dell’anno le aspettative di un numero consistente di imprese si sono modificate in senso positivo.
Gli investimenti dei Poe hanno privilegiato maggiormente gli investimenti immateriali a discapito di quelli materiali. Gli investimenti in immobili e macchinari hanno fatto registrare performance molto limitate, mentre vi è stato un aumento degli investimenti nella formazione e nella comunicazione, nonché nella ricerca di nuovi mercati e nello sviluppo di nuovi prodotti.
Nell’ambito degli investimenti materiali, le attività finalizzate all’ambiente e alla sicurezza sul posto di lavoro e all’informatizzazione hanno ottenuto molta attenzione da parte dei Poe, segno della volontà delle imprese di dotarsi di risorse competitive di lungo periodo.
L’andamento del mercato del credito rivolto all’intero segmento di imprese (società non finanziarie ed imprese individuali) ha registrato nel corso del 2006 una crescita consistente, che giunge a conferma del ritrovato clima di positività e consolida il trend iniziato nel 2005. Nel corso del 2006 le imprese di più grandi dimensioni sono ricorse maggiormente al credito, beneficiando delle condizioni ancora favorevoli intermini di costo del denaro. Nel 2006 i Poe hanno privilegiato le forme di finanziamento a media e lunga scadenza, grazie a un costo del debito che si mantiene ancora abbastanza contenuto, sebbene nelle forme di finanziamento a lungo termine sia stato registrato un leggero calo (dal 15,9% di giugno al 13,6% di settembre).
Questi sono gli aspetti principali che emergono dalla nona edizione dell’Osservatorio sulla Finanza per i Piccoli Operatori Economici, il rapporto frutto della collaborazione tra XXX e XXX che fornisce con scadenza semestrale informazioni strutturate sulle microimprese italiane.
Translation - English In 2006, small Italian businesses, or rather businesses with less that 10 employees and/or a turnover of 2.5 million euros, recorded an increase in their number of investors compared to the previous year. Investors were encouraged by economic recovery in Italy after four years of considerable stagnation. Investors rose from 39% to 43%, recording an increase of 10.26%. Whilst this is way below the figures recorded for the years preceding 2005, it indicates a significant trend reversal when actually compared to 2005, to which can be added the increase in investment intentions for 2007. This demonstrates that over the course of the year the expectations of a considerable number of businesses have changed in a positive way.
Small Businesses' investments have mainly favoured intangible investments at the expense of tangible. Investments in plant and equipment have registered a very limited performance, whilst there has been increased investment in training and communications, as well as in research into new markets and the development of new products.
In the area of tangible investments, activities aimed at the environment, safety in the work place, and computerisation, have received considerable attention from small businesses. This is an indication that the companies want to equip themselves with competitive, long-term resources.
The performance of the credit market relating to the entire business sector, (non-financial businesses and individual businesses), has recorded steady growth throughout 2006, confirming a climate of renewed optimism and reinforcing the trend started in 2005. During 2006, it was primarily the largest businesses that opted for loans, benefiting from conditions that were still favourable in terms of the price of borrowing. In 2006, small businesses favoured medium and long-term methods of financing, owing to a still relatively restrained cost of borrowing. However, a moderate decrease was recorded in long-term methods of financing, which fell from 15.9% in June to 13.6% in September of that year.
These are the main points that emerge from the 9th edition of the Observatory of European SMEs. This report, resulting from the collaboration between XXX and XXX, provides structured information on Italian micro-businesses on a twice-yearly basis.

Quer esteja à procura daquele presente difícil para alguém que já tem tudo; precisa de encontrar alguma coisa realmente especial para um amigo; ou se quiser aceitar um desafio único na vida, então precisa de começar desde já a poupar para uma viagem na xxx!
Um dos mais rápidos e ecológicos barcos a motor do mundo, com a capacidade de submergir até sete metros, irá partir de Valência, Espanha em Março de 2008 numa tentativa de estabelecer um novo recorde de velocidade com barco a motor na circum-navegação do globo.
Este incrível trimarã de design neo-zelandês, que se assemelha a uma nave espacial marítima, funciona com biodiesel a 100 % com pegada de carbono zero, fazendo desta embarcação não só a mais incrível, mas também a mais ecológico do mundo!
O capitão da xxx, xxx, acabou de anunciar que está disposto a partilhar a experiência com outros ao adicionar uma outra pessoa à tripulação de quatro pessoas em cada etapa da corrida, escolhida entre membros do público que estejam dispostos a participar e enfrentar o trabalho árduo.
Os preços iniciam-se nos $20,000/£10,000 para uma ou mais das etapas curtas, não incluindo transferências de e para os portos. Algumas etapas serão leiloadas na imprensa internacional para angariar fundos adicionais para a xxx, que funciona como uma iniciativa não lucrativa, tendo como objectivo a promoção de energias renováveis. Todos os membros 'visitantes' da tripulação serão convidados para participar na festa da vitória em Valência.
Uma tentativa bem sucedida da xxx irá marcar a primeira vez na história que um recorde mundial em barco a motor da UIM é batido usando apenas combustível renovável. O recorde actual foi estabelecido por uma embarcação britânica chamada Cable and Wireless Adventurer em 1998, demorando 75 dias para completar a viagem; os planos da xxx são de o fazer em apenas 65 dias!
Xxx afirmou, “Circum-navegar o globo representa o ponto mais alto dos desafios com barco a motor e, com mais de 24,000 milhas náuticas, é também a corrida mais longa do mundo. Gostaria muito de conhecer alguém que quisesse fazer parte desta incrível experiência…significa muito trabalho, as pessoas precisam de estar em forma e ser saudáveis e dormir a bordo não é exactamente como dormir num hotel cinco estrelas mas será uma viagem que nunca esquecerão!”
Após a tentativa de bater o recorde, a xxx e a sua tripulação irão iniciar uma nova temporada de apresentações em mais cidades da Europa e da Ásia, antes do regresso a casa à Nova Zelândia no fim de 2008. Isto possibilitará à equipa continuar a utilizar os atributos ambientais únicos da xxx para consciencializar as pessoas para a utilização de biocombustíveis e energias sustentáveis.

Whether you are searching for that elusive gift for someone who has it all, you need to find something really special for a friend, or you want to take part in a once-in-a-lifetime challenge, you will need to start saving now for a trip on xxx!
One of the fastest and most eco-friendly powerboats on this planet, capable of submarining for 7 metres underwater, will set sail from Valencia, Spain, in March 2008, in a bid to set the new powerboat speed record for circumnavigating the globe.
This revolutionary, New-Zealand designed trimaran, which resembles a sea-faring spaceship, is fuelled by 100% biodiesel with a net zero carbon-footprint, making this not only the most cutting-edge, but also the most eco-friendly boat in the world!
Xxx skipper, xxx, has just announced that he is ready to share the experience with other people by adding one extra person to the four-man crew for each leg of the race, chosen from members of the public who are willing to join in and work hard.
Prices start at $20,000/£10,000 for one or more shorter legs of the tour, not including transfer to or from the ports. Some legs will be auctioned in the international press to raise additional funds for xxx, which operates as a non-profit-making initiative, aimed at promoting renewable energies. All ‘guest’ crew members will be invited to take part in the victory party in Valencia.
A successful attempt by xxx will mark the first time in history that a world record has been broken in a UIM powerboat using only renewable fuels. The current record was set by a British craft called Cable and Wireless Adventurer in 1998, taking 75 days to complete the trip. Xxx plans to do the trip in only 65 days.
Xxx said: “Circumnavigating the globe represents the ultimate in powerboat challenges, and at over 24,000 nautical miles, it is also the world’s longest race. I would be delighted to meet someone who wants to take part in this awesome experience - it involves a lot of hard work, people need to be fit and healthy, and sleeping onboard is not exactly like sleeping in a five-star hotel. However, it will be a trip they never forget!”
After the bid to break the world record, xxx and her crew members will begin a new tour of presentations in more European and Asian cities, before returning home to New Zealand at the end of 2008. This will enable the team to continue using the environmental attributes unique to xxx to increase awareness of biofuels and sustainable energies.

Using a small oscilloscope and a hydrophone, a large marine mammal’s ‘song’ can be captured and its contents analysed by duration and frequency in order to distinguish a dolphin's whistle from the blue whale’s moan, or differentiate the vocalisation of a blue whale from that of a minke whale. Similarly, you can capture your highly distinctive signals, investigate and evaluate them, by maximising the potential of an instrument based on an intuitive interface making it extremely easy to use.

Ottimizzazione del traffico internazionale
“Da quando abbiamo installato l’applicativo CPM fornitoci da Agilent Technologies siamo in grado di intervenire in tempo reale sulle politiche di instradamento del traffico internazionale e di rilevare eventuali problemi ancora prima che i nostri clienti se ne accorgano,” spiega Carlo.
“Grazie a CPM possiamo osservare in tempo reale il tasso delle chiamate che vanno a buon fine oppure no per ogni direttrice internazionale o per ogni operatore interconnesso. In caso di degrado della qualità del servizio su alcune direttrici o su alcuni operatori possiamo intervenire sulle nostre politiche di instradamento ripartendo il traffico in modo diverso, in quanto per ogni direttrice abbiamo sempre a disposizione più operatori in grado di farsene carico. CPM è un ottimo strumento anche per verificare la qualità del servizio offerta dagli operatori nostri partner e per verificare la rispondenza del loro servizio ai parametri definiti in sede contrattuale.

Optimisation of international traffic
“Since installing the Call Performance Manager (CPM) application supplied to us by Agilent Technologies, we have been able to intervene in real time for international traffic routing policies and identify any problems before our customers are even aware of them,” explains Carlo.
“Thanks to CPM, we can observe in real time the rate of calls that succeed or fail via every international route or via every interconnecting operator. If there is a decline in the service quality on any of the routes or operators, we can alter our routing policies and apportion the traffic differently, so that for every route we always have more operators available who are able to maximise efficiency. CPM is also a great tool for checking the quality of service offered by our partner operators and for ascertaining whether the service levels respond to the parameters defined in the service level agreement.

Se nos requiere analizar si para la terminación del Contrato entre XXXX y
ZZZZZ, al vencimiento del plazo, esto el 30 de abril de 2011, existió un acuerdo
o aceptación de XXXX. Al respecto cúmpleme manifestar lo siguiente:
Antecedentes.-
1. El 9 de Julio de 2009 ZZZZZ gana una licitación convocada por XXXX para proveer a partir del 1 de Noviembre de 2009 y hasta el 30 de abril de 2011, 1.300.000 toneladas de GLP mas /menos 20% quedando a potestad del Contratante (XXXX) dicha decisión (clausula 5.01)
2. Posteriormente a la adjudicación y al comienzo de las entregas, el mercado cambia fundamentalmente de manera inesperada, modificando todas las relaciones de precios históricamente existentes, lo cual causa importante perjuicios a ZZZZZ, que a pesar de ello cumple cabalmente el contrato. XXXX acepta que existía esta situación superviniente de un incremento en el precio del GLP en el mercado (así lo expresa a PETROECUADOR, su comprador final).
3. Hacia octubre de 2010, cuando ya se hace insoportable la pérdida, ZZZZZ inicia conversaciones con XXXX para terminar por mutuo acuerdo el mencionado Contrato, según la clausula 31.02 del contrato.
XXXX, a pesar de conocer la situación del mercado, manda el 13 de enero de 2011 una nota diciendo que quiere recibir 20% del volumen básico, pero precisamente por que conocía la situación del mercado SOLICITA EXPRESAMENTE LA CONFORMIDAD DE ZZZZZ (solicitud a la que no estaba obligada contractualmente, ya que era su opción el solicitar el más 20 % de acuerdo a la cláusula.
Translation - English LEGAL OPINION ON THE TERMINATION OF LPG SUPPLY CONTRACT, BETWEEN XXXX AND ZZZZZ, AND THE TACIT ACCEPTANCE OF THE FORMER IN ORDER THAT THE CONTRACT SHALL TERMINATE ON THE EXPIRY OF ITS TERM
We are required to assess whether, for the termination of the contract between XXXX and ZZZZZ, with expiry of its term on 30 April 2011, an agreement or acceptance existed on the part of XXXX. For this purpose, I wish to report the following:
Background
1. On 9 July 2009, ZZZZZ was the winning bidder of a tender called by XXXX for the provision, from 1 November 2009 until 30 April 2011, of 1.3 million tonnes of LPG /- 20%, with the aforementioned decision (clause 5.01) remaining under the authority of the Contracting Party (XXXX).
2. Subsequent to the award and start of deliveries, the market changed in a dramatic and unexpected way, modifying all historically existing price ratios, which consequently caused major damage to ZZZZZ, which despite such damage, remained in full compliance with the contract. XXXX acknowledged that the supervening situation of a price increase of LPG existed on the market (this was stated to PETROECUADOR, its end buyer).
3. By October 2010, when the loss had become unbearable, ZZZZZ initiated talks with XXXX to terminate the aforementioned Contract by mutual agreement, in accordance with clause 31.02 of the contract.
XXXX, despite its awareness of the market situation, sent a letter on 13 January 2011 stating it wished to receive 20% of the base volume, however specifically because it was aware of the market situation, it EXPRESSLY REQUESTED ZZZZZ’S AGREEMENT (a request to which it was not bound under contract, as it was its choice to request 20%, in accordance with clause 5.01).
