Zapatero does your shoes?
And I do not speak the chairman of the government unless the guild of manufacturers of shoes and boots. They say the refranero Spanish is very wise, but what would have happened if all the shoemakers have been devoted exclusively to their shoes?. Let's look at the history of a company that began manufacturing paper and rubber boots: Nokia. You can read the full document here.
Nokia was founded in 1864 near the river Nokia in Finland, and after "aprendeher" the secrets of the manufacture of paper pulp, won the bronze medal at the World Fair in Paris. That was the first time where the Nokia brand began to be recognized, the second major milestone of its founder was to start implementing the branding on all its products in fact as many of the marketing gurus this was one of the first cases of branding that are worth is noteworthy in the history of marketing and putting the iso and logo on each and every one of their products, even in the industrial
After the Second World War Finland was forced to pay reparations to the USSR by the war, and Nokia had to start providing cable as part of these "repairs", at one point came to have 25% of its production for the Soviet government and ended up being its biggest customer.
For strategic decision because at that time began to "break away" from that customer and begin their first communications products. The president at that time was Kari Kairamo the "originator" of this change in focus. In fact for 1987 was the main electronics business of Nokia.
Computers, monitors, televisions, communications equipment, modems, etc.. With many acquisitions along the way, became the first in many of these branches.
In 1992, Nokia introduced the "father of the GSM cellular" Nokia 1011y from there begins to grow at impressive rates.
The rest of the story, I believe and know that we are living.
Currently Nokia is one of the largest companies in Europe and a good barometer of consumption. Yesterday presented results and not convinced the market that was drop in the stock market by 14%.
The technology company plummeted 13.45% in a bag of Finland after announcing that its net profit rose 25% in the first quarter, up from 1,250 million euros. Analysts were expecting half of 1380 million euros, but have been disappointed by the increase in costs and profit forecasts and warnings on the impact of the euro in the accounts.
We see that the strong euro starts to move bill. On the other side of the pond, we have another superempresa that did well the tasks that Google presented results and beat forecasts. All indications are that today will fly on the stock.
Here in Spain we have the government today approved the "emergency plan" to revive the economy, with a cost of 10.000 million. Not bad for a crisis which according to them does not exist.
And as Friday, with just the comments of the week (the most voted by readers). Usually a highlight, but this time worth two:

April 17, 2008, at 9:53.The best gangster suits are without a doubt.
The other day I got into one of its "home loan".
I asked a lot of money (€ 250,000) to buy a mousetrap (€ 200,000 + 10% costs) and a large car (30,000 €).In principle "Tony el Gordo" I look at me thinking I was crazy! I had no money!, Meditated for a while and soon saw that I would have on her arms by a laaarga season.
I make a few calls, and within a few days soon get some papers that said that the mousetrap was worth 312,500 €, that this big mob thought, and it appeared that not all gave it to me ...
I asked thousands of links (payroll resident, home insurance, life insurance ...) and still made me feel that I did a big favor.
It gave me a few pats on the face and with a smile and an eye cucando me a pen to sign papers that would tie me to the Mafia for 40 years.
He was 34 years and would be up to 74 years (and travel to Benidorm IMSERSO what?) Paying € 1205 a month (a total of € 578,400 more than double ... Phew!)What they told me it was not that they themselves also linked with other major mafias throughout Europe, could alter my monthly payment of debt, and make it go up every year ...
I was at his feet. Each month religiously paid my debt.
I thought it could happen ... if it did not sure which would remove the mousetrap and still could continue even after asking me to clear the debt.
But I thought of a solution .. That easy! Just had to sell my mousetrap by 240,000 € (what I was missing by amortizing) and rid me of them.
My the mousetrap cost me € 200,000 and put on sale for 240,000 € (Of course the big car that pulled and expenditure) was not good but a lot of money to people who knew him had risen over the selling price of its housing ago years.
Inexplicably nobody asked for my mousetrap ... but if only the post and 20% more expensive than 2 years (10% per annum is little thought ...) Do not always go up the price of MOUSE TRAPS?
Even now ... I mousetrap does not leave her.
My holiday is year after year the same ... the people of my parents.
The white markings are brilliant, especially the "colaGuay" and "mahonYesa"And when you pass by in front of that "home loan" even think it ever should have entered ...
A greeting and good days!

April 17, 2008, at 9:11.My wife does not understand economic indicators.
Is concerned:
• That kid's nursery for the next course climbs 16%
• The share of the APAS of breeding rises 12%
• That loaf of bread has risen by 36%
• That milk has risen by 22%
• The share of the mortgage has increased by 90 € a month.
• The potatoes, rice, eggs, oil, electricity, water etc. That heavy!I say that if they are all fixed-digit increases of 2 and, instead, the really important indicators, such as the CPI, the Euribor, the rate of the ECB, and so on. not even reach the 5%
Moreover, growth of GDP, which I think is important for the releche, will be between 3.1 and 1.8. Fuck, that's a trend to zero. Cool huh?
Besides my boss told me that my salary is not even a reference indicator as the CPI. Rather be associated with something called productivity. In my case, Chachi, because, for example, now if I write two comments a day and move to write, three, with that one per cent increase, step by winning 1.2 € more per month. Gross eh! I do not think that I fall in net almost 80 cents.
If it's what you always say: if you think that men are all fools, at least we have one next door. But come on, what it is like that if they are unable to understand why a map puñetas always get the co-pilot?
Anyway. Aupa Alonso, who with the new spoilers are you going to run more than the brown.
"With the hand upwards'm the first on the grid"

"With his finger on the button for vehicle Hamilton"Darling. Hand me another beer, go.
Good weekend to all!
