Within the inner circles of that which you call Chinese politics, there will be a re-evaluation of goals and monetary policy. Eventually, you will see a break with North Korea, allowing still another dictator to fall and unification to occur with the south. ….”

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Apple, Ericsson, GM facing Japan parts shortages

BBC News, 18 March 2011

Japan Earthquake

Details are emerging of manufacturers facing disruption to their supply chain due to the earthquake in Japan.

Apple's iPad 2 may be hit by shortages of key
components, research suggests

Apple may be unable to source parts for its new iPad 2, a report suggests.

Sony Ericsson has already acknowledged that it will face similar problems with its mobile phones.

General Motors shut production at a truck plant in the US state of Louisiana on Thursday because of shortages, although research suggests the impact on carmakers may be limited.

Batteries and LCDs

Among the iPad parts threatened are its flash memory - used for audio and video storage - and its super-thin battery, which is produced exclusively by Apple Japan, according to a report by IHS iSuppli.

"Logistical disruptions may mean that Apple could have difficulties obtaining this battery, and it may not be able to secure supply from an external, non-Japanese source," said the research group.

Affected iPad components may also include an in-built compass, DRAM memory and the glass overlaying the its touchscreen.

Other computer-makers may be hit by shortages of laptop batteries after Sony shut down five of its six factories in Japan.

Liquid crystal displays used in mobile phones and satellite navigation may also be in short supply.

Toshiba has shut one of its two LCD plants to recalibrate sensitive equipment knocked out of kilter by the earthquake, as has Hitachi with its Tokyo factory because of damage and power cuts.

"In the short term, there won't be much impact," said chief executive Yang Yuanqing of Lenovo. "We are more worried about the impact in the next quarter."

The Chinese computer maker was not the only tech firm to flag up likely problems ahead.

"Although the full impact of the current situation on our business will take additional time to assess, Sony Ericsson anticipates disruption to its supply chain operations," said the Swedish-Japanese joint venture in a statement.

'Overdone'

Further problems are likely to emerge in the car industry, according to research by Nomura.

Nissan was likely to be hardest hit, said the Japanese investment bank, as a factory it owns in the earthquake zone supplies 12% of its engines.

Problems at the company are likely to spill over to Renault, because of the close business relationship between the two.

However, Nomura said that the sharp sell-off in many car stocks earlier in the week had been "overdone".

Although BMW, Daimler Peugeot, Fiat and Volkswagen were all identified as being affected, Nomura expected the impact on earnings to be as little as 3%.

General Motors remains the only car company outside Japan to have halted production, but it claimed that it had enough completed vehicles to meet two months of supply.

Meanwhile, Boeing's Dreamliner is likely to be hit by yet more delays.

Jamco, which puts together the plane's galleys in northwest Japan before shipping them out via Yokohama, said that while production facilities were sound, deliveries would be disrupted by fuel shortages.
