Investing

While dividend investing may not be as exciting as buying and selling, capturing those big gains, at times it can be safer. But as with any investment, there are risks involved.

Why Don't We Drill for Our Own Oil

Maybe I am a little ignorant and unlearned, but I have a hard time understanding why we do not drill for own oil in Alaska and offshore as well. Why does some of those in power insist on keeping the United States dependent on foriegn oil? There is a mystery here and I am afraid of what the answer may be.

What is Your Goal in Life?

Oswald Chambers points out the most important goal to have in life, that is to live a life that is well pleasing to our creator. The only way we can do that is believing is His only begotten Son who died for our sins and arose from the grave so that we could have a right relationship with our Heavenly Father.

EURO 5 CITROËN NEMO - EGS RANGE EXPANSION & SPECIFICATION UPLIFT

As the latest move in its ‘Business Class’ programme, Citroën has expanded the newly launched Euro 5 Citroën Nemo range. Available now, the Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX is an even more economical and lower emissions model.


In addition, the standard specification of the range-topping Nemo HDi 75 manual Stop & Start 660 Enterprise has been enhanced with a new dual-function Connecting Box, which includes Bluetooth® and a USB socket. This new equipment replaces the previous solus Bluetooth® mobile phone connectivity feature on this model. The Connecting Box is also available as an option on all Nemo LX vans.

The Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX features Citroën’s innovative Electronic Gearbox System - an advanced automated manual gearbox. This combines the fuel efficiency of a manual ’box with the driver benefit of a two pedal automatic. The EGS gearbox enables the driver to select automatic mode, or manual mode using the sequential shift facility of the central gear selector.

The Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX provides even better fuel economy and lower emission figures than those achieved by the Euro 5 Nemo HDi vans with five-speed manual transmission. CO2emissions for the EGS model are reduced by 3.54% to just 109g/km from the manual transmission Euro 5 model’s 113g/km. Its exceptional fuel economy figures are also even better than those of the manual transmission van with 60.1mpg Urban (+7.82%), 74.3mpg Extra Urban (unchanged) and 68.9mpg Combined (+4.64%).

Scott Michael, Citroën’s Commercial Vehicle Operations Manager, commented: “At the launch of the ‘Citroën Vans - Business Class’ programme, Citroën stated that one of its key elements was the development of environmentally respectful, fuel efficient vehicles. The Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX exemplifies this strategy. It enables hard pressed businesses to provide their drivers with the comfort and convenience of two pedal driving, while gaining from additional fuel efficiency and emissions benefits. And, amazingly, the Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX is only £400 more expensive than the equivalent manual transmission model.”

Euro 5 Nemo - designed to benefit businesses
All vans in the Euro 5 Nemo range provide operators with major financial, environmental and productivity benefits. As Citroën’s smallest van, the Nemo is designed to appeal to urban businesses. Reinforcing its urban credentials, the Nemo is just 3.86m long and has a turning-circle of just 9.95m. Yet, the Citroën Nemo has a large internal load volume of 2.8m³ and payloads of up to 660kg - matching the load carrying and load volume capacity of some of its larger high-cube competitors.
With the launch of the Citroën Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX, the Euro 5 Nemo van range now consists of the following well equipped models:
Nemo 1.4i 75 manual 610 X £9,165 MRBP*Nemo HDi 75 manual Stop & Start 660 X £10,665 MRBP*
Nemo HDi 75 manual Stop & Start 660 LX £11,365 MRBP*
Nemo HDi 75 EGS Stop & Start 660 LX £11,765 MRBP*
Nemo HDi 75 manual Stop & Start 660 Enterprise £11,965 MRBP*
* Manufacturer’s Recommended Basic Price (MRBP) is exclusive of VAT, delivery to dealer and no. plates, Government First Registration Fee and VED

Live the Message

What leaps out at me from today's excerpt from "My Utmost for His Highest" is that believers should live the message of Christ. Believe it or not that is what I taught in bible study last night. Coincidence? No, I believe God is reminding me that if we are going to be a light in this world of darkness we have to life the life.
