OVIDEO Cheap Jeff Heath Jersey , Spain, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- The 2015 Princess of Asturias awards ceremony, a major cultural event in Spain, was held in the northern Spanish city of Oviedo on Friday.

"Life would be incomplete without art," said Felipe Cheap Chris Jones Jersey , while literature "allows us to understand feelings," and communication and humanities teach us what is "human nature and society."

Chinese conglomerate HNA will buy US technology distributor Ingram Micro for $6.0 billion, a statement said, the latest firm to snap up a foreign entity as part of Beijing's outward investment drive.

Tianjin Tianhai Investment, a unit of HNA Cheap La’el Collins Jersey , will pay $38.90 per share in an all-cash transaction, New York-listed Ingram Micro said in a statement, representing a 31 percent premium to its Wednesday closing price.

The move comes as Beijing looks to encourage companies to invest abroad to secure raw materials and seek out reliable returns as the economy at home struggles.

State-owned China National Chemical Corp. this month offered $43 billion for Swiss pesticide and seed giant Syngenta -- which would be the biggest-ever overseas acquisition by a Chinese firm if completed.

The HNA deal will be among the top 10 most valuable acquisitions made by a Chinese company, according to data from research firm Dealogic.

Ingram Micro distributes products for the likes of Apple (LSE: 0R2V.L - news) , Microsoft (NasdaqGS: MSFT - news) , IBM (NYSE: IBM - news) and Cisco with more than 200,000 customers in approximately 160 countries Cheap Damien Wilson Jersey , it says on its website.

HNA -- best known as a parent of Hainan Airlines -- said the acquisition would help grow its business overseas and transform its existing logistics unit.

"With the help of Ingram Micro, HNA Group would have access to business opportunities in emerging markets, which have higher growth rates and better profitability," HNA chief executive Adam Tan said in the statement.

The transaction, which has already been approved by the boards of both companies, is expected to be completed in the second half of the year, the statement released Wednesday said.

Ingram Micro will remain headquartered in California and the current management team will stay in place Cheap Stephen Paea Jersey , it said.

The bad news for the Baltimore Ravens in their 2009 NFL regular season opener was that their vaunted defense gave up 24 points despite holding a decided advantage in every other statistical category. The good news was that their offense was more than up to the task, answering with 38 points and a franchise record 501 yards. All told, the Ravens opened their season on a winning note beating the Kansas City Chiefs 38-24. Quarterback Joe Flacco threw for a career high 307 yards and three touchdown passes in the victory.

NFL sports betting devotees who took the +13 points with the Chiefs as a road underdog were hard luck losers as the Ravens managed to cover the pointspread by a single point. The win evened Baltimore’s ATS record over the past three seasons at 18-18, while the Chiefs fell to 14-19 in the same timeframe. The 62 combined points scored easily exceeded the posted total of 37.

Afterwards, Joe Flacco was clearly elated at his solid passing performance:

“It’s awesome. It’s so much fun. As a quarterback, that’s what you want to do.”

Ravens coach John Harbaugh expressed confidence in his team’s ability to make plays:

“We’re going to throw more if it helps us win games. I think that we will be capable of throwing the ball more ways than we did last year. We have really good players that can make plays.”
