A coalition of community, labor and good-government organizations is calling on the U.S. Office of Government Ethics to investigate presidential candidate Mitt Romney for noncompliance with the Ethics in Government Act and compel him to either disclose his investments or divest them.
A letter sent today to Don W. Fox, general counsel of the Office of Government Ethics, states that Gov. Romney “has not even attempted to meet the requirements for a federal blind trust with respect to his substantial equity holdings. The only way for this law to be enforced in a meaningful way is for your Office to act promptly to demand that candidate Romney disclose his stock holdings, or divest them if disclosure is not feasible.”

Am kommenden Wochenende starten die Formel 1-Teams beim Grand Prix von Ungarn auf dem Hungaroring nahe Budapest, dem letzten Rennen vor der Sommerpause. Die Strecke unterscheidet sich in ihrer Charakteristik sehr deutlich vom Nürburgring, auf dem Anfang Juli der letzte Grand Prix ausgetragen wurde. Pirelli liefert die Slick-Mischungen P Zero White (Medium) und Yellow (Soft) nach Ungarn. Das ist auf dem Papier dieselbe Nominierung wie in 2012, jedoch sind die Gummimischungen dieser Saison weicher und bieten mehr Performance. Außerdem wurde die Konstruktion der Reifen noch einmal verändert. Die neuen Slicks kombinieren die Struktur der Reifengeneration aus 2012 mit den aktuellen, softeren Gummimischungen der Saison 2013. Vergangene Woche testeten die Teams diese neuen Reifen erfolgreich auf der Strecke in Silverstone und sammelten dabei ausgiebig Informationen. Auf dem engen und kurvigen Hungaroring ist die Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit niedrig, ein Faktor, der Abrieb und Verschleiß maßgeblich beeinflusst. Beim Rennen in Ungarn kam es in der Vergangenheit eher seltener zu Regenfällen, für diesen Fall stehen den Teams der Intermediate Cinturato Green sowie der Regenreifen Cinturato Blue zur Verfügung.

During the third quarter, we were again able to capture the benefits of AEGON’s strategic priorities, resulting in solid earnings growth, improved profitability of sales, lower expenses and a continued strong capital position. Our franchise remains healthy, as evidenced by the particularly high level of At-Retirement and pension sales. At the same time, we are making essential investments to reshape our businesses in both our established and developing markets to respond effectively to the changing conditions and new realities. Although there are signs of gradually improving market conditions, there remains considerable uncertainty in the general economic environment. Consequently, we believe it is prudent and necessary to maintain a sufficient financial buffer while at the same time adhering to our strict risk and pricing discipline. The steps we are taking across our organization to get closer to our end customers, combined with the strength of our current position, give us full confidence in the prospects for our business going forward.
