Europe - UK-France relations chillier

Published on Dec 16, 2011 by
http://www.euronews.net/ The diplomatic icicles at the latest EU summit have been snowballing in the press.

Neither the French nor the British hid their displeasure. The air hung thick with irritation, and leaders' hands brushed past unshaken.

There was a crackle in the room after London's veto of EU treaty reform proposed by Paris and Berlin.

President Sarkozy weighed his words underscoring the UK's isolation in the agreement reached by 26 of the EU's 27 member countries.

What's In The News: December 16, 2011 Exxon Mobil Royal Dutch Shell Lukoil Cablevision System St. Jude's Medical

Uploaded by on Dec 16, 2011
This is what's in the news for Friday, December 16, 2011. The Wall Street Journal reports oil companies active in the south of Iraq such as Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), BP (NYSE:BP), Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS.A), and Lukoil (NYSE:LUKOY) strengthened security to deal with concerns over the implications of the U.S. troop withdrawal, but they say that hasn't caused them to change plans to significantly increase production. Reuters reports the unexpected resignation of Cablevision System's (NYSE:CVC) top cable executive Tom Rutledge sparked Wall Street and investor speculation that the Dolan family controlled company could become an acquisition target. Reuters also reports Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:DB) began the sale of a large portion of its global asset management business, with a price expected to be $2.6B and higher. Finally, Bloomberg reports St. Jude's Medical's (NYSE:STJ) Riata defibrillator leads, which they stopped selling last year, were recalled by the FDA because of their potential to injure or kill patients.

Darden Restaurant (NYSE:DRI) Cooks Up Mixed Estimates For Q2, Rose .4% Year-Over-Year (potential upside of 16.1%)

Uploaded by FinancialNewsOnline on Dec 16, 2011

Darden Restaurants (NYSE:DRI) reported Q2 EPS of $0.41, missing analyst estimates of $0.42 per share. Revenues for the quarter rose 6.1% year-over-year to $1.83 billion in-line with consensus estimates.

Clarence Otis , Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Darden said, "As we previously announced, strong sales growth this quarter at Red Lobster, LongHorn Steakhouse and our Specialty Restaurant Group was offset by below expectation sales results at Olive Garden, pressure on check averages as guests continue to be cautious about spending and unfavorable year-over-year food costs. To rebuild its value leadership position in the industry, Olive Garden is developing new promotional and core menu offerings and new advertising and is focused on remodeling its older restaurants. While guests will experience some of the changes relatively soon, others will take time to develop and implement. Fortunately, with reduced cost inflation in the second half of this fiscal year, the strong momentum at our other brands enables us to anticipate solid earnings growth for the remainder of the fiscal year even as Olive Garden makes the changes needed to get back on track."

Darden Restaurants (NYSE:DRI) has potential upside of 16.1% based on a current price of $43.74 and an average consensus analyst price target of $50.8.

Russell Grant’s Weekly Horoscopes Saturday 17th December 2011

.
.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) This will be a testing time for you on a whole range of levels as you struggle to come to terms with changes, new situations, and trying to climb a very steep learning curve. It will take time and patience, so don’t throw in the towel at the first setback. Ease the strain by going out with friends after hours; they’ll soon lift your spirits. This is not the time to tangle with authority. Be compliant, fit in and don’t cause a stir. Express your individuality through creative projects.

  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Work will be tense, thanks to an uncooperative colleague. By refusing to get drawn into an intense power struggle, you’ll finish a job with time to spare, and be given a handsome reward. As Christmas draws near so you are bound to be in demand socially. Don’t trust your memory with dates, places and invitations, jot them down in your diary and you’ll be OK. Do your sums first if you’re planning to throw a party. Festive expenses could spiral wildly.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Your hopes are hindered by financial problems. Ask a trusted friend or adviser for guidance on keeping your savings safe and your investments increasing. On a more intimate level you should be planning something super for Christmas with your special someone and if you have found recent times rather heavy going you should aim to keep things light. The festive season can suddenly turn very heavy without any warning so spot the pitfalls and avoid them.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Home life is bound to be disrupted by the countdown to Christmas. You and your partner need to find a way to accommodate each other’s interests. If one of you has a preoccupation that threatens your relationship, sort it out now. A celebration gives you and your amour a welcome chance to forget your troubles. Talk your way out of staying later than usual at work or time consuming commitments and give yourself a little “You Time”. You have earned it.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) You may have to get a second opinion about a health problem. It will be inconvenient to go for another consultation, but you shouldn’t cut corners when it comes to your wellbeing. An accomplished friend is offering encouragement for you to take a new path; this could be the beginning of something unexpected and wonderfully fulfilling. An exciting job offer or promotion is in the works, but you may need to invest time and effort in your skills bank.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Buying someone an expensive present won’t win their affection. You’re better off making something with your own two hands. Working from home will be productive, as you’ll be able to avoid annoying distractions like gossiping workmates and time consuming interminable meetings. An intriguing offer will give you plenty of food for thought, but in the long run you may opt to stick with the tried and trusted. But will this turn out to be your best move?
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) It’s hard to enjoy a happy home life when you have so much on your mind. Try putting responsibilities on the backburner in favour of Christmas festivities. It’s special times like these that define life, not routine drudgery. An email, card or text message puts you back in touch with someone you’ve not seen or heard from for ages. Catch up with them and find out what’s been happening in their life. If you need to buy a very special gift do it over the next few days.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) A secret enemy is spreading rumours. Fortunately, nobody can find fault with anything you say or do. So long as you keep a cool head, a ready smile and a kind word, your position is secure. With Christmas just around the corner you should focus on all the things you need to do before the big day. Leave everything until the last minute and you’re sure to forget an important gift or invitation. You’ll be kicking yourself if you do, so get organised and be busy.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Finances are tight right now; so it isn’t a good time to spend money on frivolous fripperies. That can be difficult during the Christmas season, when luxuries beckon and tempt from every shop window. Restrain yourself from buying anything unnecessary. By waiting a wee while, you could get a beautiful treat as a present. Your considerable charm makes you a big favourite with friends and relatives. A new job is looking likely, but it will cut into your social life.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) No amount of wit, charm, and tact can help handle someone who wants everything their way. By following their instructions to the letter, you’ll avoid trouble. By keeping a low profile, you’ll win their confidence. Working on behalf of a charity gives you an impressive profile in the community. Don’t be surprised if you become a hot commodity socially and even romantically as Christmas looms ever larger. A relative won’t approve, but that’s just too bad.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Don’t go against an expert’s advice, or you’ll regret it. Show respect for their extensive knowledge and experience. Joining a club or organisation will put you in contact with several talented people. Let them encourage you to develop your own skills and talents. A hidden benefactor makes it possible for you to spend more time at home during the Christmas holidays. Take advantage of this unexpected gift. You could use some time away from the workplace.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Borrowing money, clothes, or equipment from a friend is a bad move. You’re better off working with what you’ve got. If you’ve played your cards right, you will be in line for a festive bonus to help you buy what you need. That way, you won’t be putting a personal relationship in the firing line. Have you been thinking about making a break with time honoured Christmas traditions? This could be the year to do just that. It will be a surprising success.

.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Saturday 17th December 2011

.
.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Getting a medical or dental consultation is strongly advised. That way, you'll be in good shape once Christmas gets cracking. A doctor or dentist might detect a small problem in its infancy stage. By getting treatment now, you'll avoid further complications. Be ready to go on a diet or step up your fitness routine. It's not good for an active person like you to be weighed down by rich food and calorific drinks. Lean meats, whole grains, and fresh vegetables will keep you in fine form.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Romance is your first priority. While everyone else is busy shopping and making plans for the festive season, you are pining for someone who has captured your heart. Fortunately, it looks as if the object of your affection shares your feelings. Securing their affections will be a challenge. It looks like your amour loves the thrill of the chase. Normally, you don't like taking risks, especially when it comes to affairs of the heart. This situation requires you to go out on a limb.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Family activities are highly favoured. Gather the gang together to decorate the house, make special food, and clear out the clutter. Play seasonal songs as you work. There's no reason this work session can't be a festive occasion. If you're on your own, think of ways to cultivate a cosy atmosphere among friends and neighbours. This is the time of year when everyone wants to belong. It doesn't matter how offbeat or unorthodox your social circle is. The important thing is you gather together to enjoy each other's company.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Your phone won't stop ringing. It seems like everybody wants your ear. Neighbours and relatives are especially insistent on getting an audience. You might have to travel a short distance to attend to a family matter. If you want to avoid being on call all the time, you'll have to teach a relative how to conduct your duties. Alternatively, you can hire a professional nurse or caretaker to attend to the tasks you normally perform. It's not fair to put all the pressure on you.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Shopping for practical gadgets is favoured. You will get a good price on a car, computer, or kitchen appliance. Of course, it pays to be as informed as possible before you set foot in a showroom. That way, you'll be able to ask intelligent questions and avoid slick sales pitches. As a general rule, you prefer showier models to ones known for their durability. This time you won't have to sacrifice quality for style. Buying a base model will result in a significant savings.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) You'll be busier than usual, finishing up tasks and putting the last touches to your festive preparations. It feels great to be so productive, but don't forget to take well timed breaks. Going through life as if you're running a race will lead to burnout. You've got to pause and take time for leisurely activities that feed your spirit, like reading and writing. Working with your hands is also soothing. Pottery, knitting, and baking are all good ways to ease your restless mind.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Working behind the scenes is critical to your success. Don't tell rivals about your plans, or they will undermine your progress. You may not realise it, but people are very jealous of your talent. They'll do anything in their power to make you look foolish. Fortunately, you have a tendency to do things by the book, which makes it difficult to question your methods. Nobody can accuse you of cutting corners. In fact, you're often accused of being overly fastidious.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Keep a tight rein on your obligations. Although your instinct is to help anyone who asks for it, you have to be more discerning. Loading up your schedule with lots of tasks will just make you tired and irritable. Focus on one or two commitments that have personal meaning for you. Doing research for someone special will be a good use of your talent. You have a knack for digging up useful facts and figures that will benefit the community.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) The only way to realise your ambition is to embark on a programme of self promotion. You can't expect others to intuit your talents. Although you aren't a braggart, you do enjoy talking about your favourite subjects. Anyone with half a brain will realise you've got expert knowledge. It's also important to emphasise your organisational skills. Therefore, you've got to focus on getting an interview with a potential employer. Once you get a foot in the door, things will start happening.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Long distance travel and cultural pursuits capture your imagination. This is a great time to plan a trip to an historic city. Going away for Christmas may be a good way to avoid a family feud. You're tired of trying to keep the peace while everyone seems intent on fighting. The good news is you can find a great deal on a package tour. Exploring museums, art galleries, and boutiques will make this a very memorable Christmas.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) You're tired of suppressing your physical urges. It's time to make your desires known, even at the risk of rejection. Fortunately, your allure is at an all time high. It will be difficult to resist your charms. If you're single and don't have any interesting prospects on the horizon, head out. You could meet someone special at a book club, library, or discussion group. There are new influences and involvements just waiting to come into your life.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Two heads are better than one. By teaming up with people with a fine eye for detail, you'll make impressive progress. This is a great time to attend to little projects that ordinarily escape your attention. Go through that huge pile of mail, return phone messages, and fill the pantry. The last thing you want to do is spend your free time on such trivial jobs. Once you cross them off your list you'll feel so much better.
