In den Toren, Baarn 1989 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/oltm003memo05_01/colofon.php © Stichting Willem Oltmans / dbnl 6 Voor de heer en mevrouw J. van Dijk, directeur Nieuw Baarnse School Willem Oltmans, Memoires 1961 7 Inleiding Door een technische fout ontbraken in het vorige deel (1959-1961) drie dagboekaantekeningen: 18 januari 1961 (dagboek) Penn-Sheraton Hotel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Tot mijn onsterfelijke ergernis heb ik ongeveer 25 pagina's van mijn dagboek in de Greyhoundbus verloren. Alles is weg, ook de knipsels. Ik was in Chicago geweest en had een lezing in Omaha, Nebraska gegeven. Lunchte met leden van de ‘Ad-Sell Club’ in de Kamer van Koophandel aldaar. Had ook een televisie-interview in Omaha gegeven en een slaapwagen van de Burlington Railroad terug naar Chicago genomen. Gaf vervolgens een lezing in Evaston, Illinois en arriveerde hier met een Greyhoundbus vanuit Chicago. 19 januari 1961 Patrice Lumumba is nu in handen van Moise Tshombe in Katanga, wat me absoluut razend maakt. Zweedse UNO-troepen kwamen niet tussenbeide, toen soldaten van Tshombe de voormalige premier in elkaar sloegen. Hij werd in een jeep gesmeten, nà nog verdere mishandeling. Vier soldaten van Tshombe gingen boven op Lumumba en twee van zijn medestanders zitten. Hij is nu opgesloten in de gevangenis van Jadotville, in het hartje van het koperrijke gebied van Katanga. Ik vrees het ergste. Om 18:30 sprak ik voor de ‘Dutch Treat Club’ in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania. 20 januari 1961 Mijn broer Theo schrijft onder meer uit Kaapstad: ‘This country is completely entangled in the most hopeless human relations.

  • Why the Dell / EMC Combination Makes Sense for Customers
    Why the Dell / EMC Combination Makes Sense for Customers Synergistic product portfolio and go-to-market strategies have potential to set IT customers up for success in the digital economy Executive Summary One of the biggest technology deals in history at over $60 billion is about to unfold as Dell prepares to buy EMC. At EMC World in May 2016, Michael Dell made this acquisition more real than ever when he announced the new entity’s name, Dell Technologies, which will be an umbrella brand for the collection of companies that will include enterprise and client solutions and services, and other strategic assets including VMware, Pivotal, RSA, Virtustream, and SecureWorks. With just a few major milestones to go, it appears that all is on track for the companies to merge the enterprise organizations as Dell EMC under the umbrella brand and to begin operating as one by around mid-year. Dell and EMC are positioning themselves as the path to the cloud for IT customers. Moor Insights & Strategy (MI&S) believes Dell’s leadership in compute and EMC’s leadership in storage and converged infrastructure have the potential to become building blocks for a one-stop shop for enterprise datacenter customers. Other assets such as security, virtualization software, and cloud solutions can help round out the portfolio. Moreover, Dell’s client computing business and IoT practices can bring insight into client computing and IoT models that will be key drivers for future datacenter requirements. Dell EMC should focus on continuing to build up their networking business and making it a more cohesive part of their end-to-end datacenter story.

  • In the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware City
    EFiled: Feb 19 2013 09:26AM EST Transaction ID 49611480 Case No. 8329­ IN THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE CITY OF ROSEVILLE EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM, Plaintiff, Civil Action No. v. DELL, INC., MICHAEL DELL, JAMES W. BREYER, DONALD J. CARTY, JANET F. CLARK, LAURA CONIGLIARO, KENNETH M. DUBERSTEIN, WILLIAM H. GRAY, III, GERARD J. KLEISTERLEE, KLAUS S. LUFT, ALEX J. MANDL, SHANTANU NARAYEN, ROSS PEROT, JR., DENALI HOLDING INC., DENALI INTERMEDIATE INC., DENALI ACQUIROR INC., SILVER LAKE PARTNERS, L.P., SILVER LAKE PARTNERS III, L.P., SILVER LAKE PARTNERS IV, L.P., SILVER LAKE TECHNOLOGY INVESTORS III, L.P., and MSDC MANAGEMENT, L.P., Defendants. VERIFIED CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT City of Roseville Employees’ Retirement System (“Plaintiff”), by and through its undersigned counsel, upon knowledge as to itself and upon information and belief as to all other matters, alleges as follows: NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. This action challenges Michael Dell’s attempt to take Dell, Inc. (“Dell” or the “Company”) private in a transaction (the “Going Private Transaction”) that offers Dell’s public shareholders an egregiously unfair price and threatens to foreclose them from sharing in any of the benefits to be obtained by the Company’s unfolding turnaround plan. The Going Private Transaction offers Dell’s public shareholders $13.65 per share – a price so patently unfair that it prompted one shareholder to question whether company insiders are “trying to steal the company because of current market conditions.” The $13.65 per share purchase price is approximately 3% less than the price at which the stock was trading just days prior to the Transaction’s announcement, represents only a 25% premium over the stock’s trading price before news of a potential transaction was reported, and amounts to a 34% discount from the prices at which Dell was trading a year ago.

    Historical overview of development policies and institutions in the Netherlands, in the context of private sector development and (productive) employment creation Agnieszka Kazimierczuk ASC Working Paper 122 / 2015 Agnieszka Kazimierczuk African Studies Centre, Leiden, The Netherlands [email protected] African Studies Centre P.O. Box 9555 2300 RB Leiden The Netherlands Telephone +31-71-5273372 Fax +31-71-5273344 E-mail [email protected] Website http://www.ascleiden.nl Agnieszka Kazimierczuk, 2015 2 Historical overview of development policies and institutions in the Netherlands, in the context of private sector development and (productive) employment creation Agnieszka Kazimierczuk Abstract This paper reviews the Dutch development cooperation policies for the years 1949-2015 with particular attention for private sector development (PSD). Over the years, poverty alleviation, private sector development and security have been dominant focus areas of Dutch development cooperation, with PSD taking a central role as it was assumed that poverty could only be alleviated when a country’s economy is stimulated. Therefore, the Dutch government has been strongly supporting policies and initiatives stimulating PSD in the Netherlands and in developing countries. The long history of Dutch development cooperation shows continuity in its approach towards development policy as a way of promoting Dutch businesses and export in developing countries. Introduction This paper reviews Dutch development cooperation policies for the years 1949-2015 with particular attention for private sector development (PSD). Moreover, this appraisal examines a potential role for Dutch development policies in creating an enabling environment for the ‘home’ (Dutch) and ‘host’ (recipient) private sector to generate (productive) employment. Since the end of the Second World War, the Netherlands has been an active supporter of international development aid.

Ooievaar, Amsterdam 2000 (2de druk) Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/jous008hofv01_01/colofon.php © 2016 dbnl / Arendo Joustra 5 Voor mijn vader Sj. Joustra (1921-1996) Arendo Joustra, Het hof van Brussel of hoe Europa Nederland overneemt 6 ‘Het hele recht, het hele idee van een eenwordend Europa, wordt gedragen door een leger mensen dat op zoek is naar een volgende bestemming, die het blijkbaar niet in zichzelf heeft kunnen vinden, of in de liefde. Het leger offert zich moedwillig op aan dit traagkruipende monster zonder zich af te vragen waar het vandaan komt, en nog wezenlijker, of het wel bestaat.’ Oscar van den Boogaard, Fremdkörper (1991) Arendo Joustra, Het hof van Brussel of hoe Europa Nederland overneemt 9 Inleiding - Aan het hof van Brussel Het verhaal over de Europese Unie begint in Brussel. Want de hoofdstad van België is tevens de zetel van de voornaamste Europese instellingen. Feitelijk is Brussel de ongekroonde hoofdstad van de Europese superstaat. Hier komt de wetgeving vandaan waaraan in de vijftien lidstaten van de Europese Unie niets meer kan worden veranderd. Dat is wennen voor de nationale hoofdsteden en regeringscentra als het Binnenhof in Den Haag. Het spel om de macht speelt zich immers niet langer uitsluitend af in de vertrouwde omgeving van de Ridderzaal. Het is verschoven naar Brussel. Vrijwel ongemerkt hebben diplomaten en Europese functionarissen de macht op het Binnenhof veroverd en besturen zij in alle stilte, ongezien en ongecontroleerd, vanuit Brussel de ‘deelstaat’ Nederland.
