  The Ad Man Cometh: A good recruitment ad contains incentives to attract the right candidates as well as disincentives ...
In particular, MV efficient portfolios on the upper segment of the efficient frontier may be less long-term efficient than portfolios with less risk.
Consequently, the critical point defines the boundary of portfolios on the lower segment of the MV efficient frontier that are N-period geometric mean MV efficient and those on the upper segment that are not.
N-period horizon MV efficiency leads to the simple decision rule of considering only MV efficient portfolios on the lower segment of the efficient frontier up to the critical point efficient portfolio.

Consider that the Horizon is very light in the water, considering her size, and a few large waves or deep swells will have her moving like a pig.
The food and service departments on the Horizon are just fine.....and so are the cabins.....and since much of your trip, whether you admit it or not, will be spent eating or sleeping, you'll have nothing to worry about if you sail on her.
The Horizon does not offer all the electronic gewgaws that pervade her larger fleetmates....so to that end, she offers a slightly more traditional seagoing experience.

The finite output horizon formulation is used by all of the algorithms discussed in this paper.
The length of the horizon P is a basic tuning parameter for these controllers, and is generally set long enough to capture the steady-state effects of all computed future MV moves.

 Cruise Diva's Cruise Planner
The bottom line for the Horizon and the basic reasoning for her to be sold off is not that she is ancient (she isn’t in nautical measurement, she is still a young ship) but rather she doesn’t meet the changing cruise market needs in US.
The other design change that was made over the first years of the Horizon’s life was fixing the beds, deck by deck, to be able to be put together.
I sailed the Horizon in I believe 1990 for the first time and I think that Celebrity has done an excellent job of maintaining her.

We found a cabin (9076) on MV Zenith, however, that was almost as cheap as an inside cabin because it had an obstructed view.
Many other ships have obstructed view rooms that appear to be between lifeboats but are in fact obstructed by other features, so quality research here is a key.

The direct component of the ground wave is limited only by the distance to the horizon from the transmitter plus a small distance added by atmospheric diffraction around the curvature of the earth.
The ground-reflected component is the portion of the radiated wave that reaches the receiving antenna after being reflected from the Earth's surface.
The sensitivity of a receiver is taken as the minimum signal level required to produce an output signal having a specified signal-to-noise ratio.
