Problem: BODY: A married couple is driving down the interstate doing 55 mph. The husband is behind the wheel. His wife looks over at him. "Honey, I know we've been married for 15 years, but, I want a divorce." The husband says nothing but slowly increases speed to 60 mph. "I don't want you to try to talk me out of it, because I've been having an affair with your best friend, and he's a better lover than you." Again the husband stays quiet and just speeds up as his anger increases. "I want the house also." Again the husband speeds up, and now is doing 75 mph. "I want the kids too." The husband just keeps driving faster and faster, now he's up to 85 mph. "And I want the car, the checking account, and all the credit cards." The husband slowly starts to veer toward a bridge overpass piling as the speedometer reaches 90 mph. "You're taking this incredibly calmly," the wife says. "Isn't there anything that you want?" "No, I have everything I need." "What's that?" "The airbag."

Problem: BODY: Attached is the referenced counterparty approval list. On Encal, the only amended counterparty, I don't know if this is a change or not from the prior approval, but Leslie shut them down for power. All other prior approvals for that counterparty should remain the same.

It is much more that a Blockbuster or other like structure. = If you would like to discuss in detail do not hesitate to give me a call an= d I will take you through it - both overall strategy and tactics. Even tho= ugh it has been a confluence of events which has caused our problems, the f= undamental root of most issues is an inactive management team which hasn't = managed the detail as well as we would like. New Power in my view would no= t have been as big a loser if we had kept it private and managed it closely= as a key part of the business. Instead we took it public and let it run a= mok. I think you can see parallels across the company. Initially well int= entioned and thought out strategies fall apart when not managed appropriate= ly. Regards
