	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Hostile takeover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		A hostile takeover can usually occur only through publicly traded shares, as it requires the acquirer to bypass the board of directors and purchase the shares from other sources.
		According to the Harvard study, in the nine months after a hostile takeover bid was announced, shares in companies with staggered boards increased only 31.8%, compared to the average of 43.4% returned to stockholders of companies with non-staggered boards (Bebchuk, Coates and Subramanian; 2002).
		Although hostile takeovers are a fairly rare occurrence, the fact remains that boards are elected to represent shareholder interests; because staggered boards may deter takeovers (and the premiums paid for shares as a result of takeovers), this puts the two at odds.

	Merger : Takeover Conspiracy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The realism is quickly established with introductory material that includes a map of the United States showing the routes of western railroads and a financial statement with notes that looks like an authentic corporate report.
		Above all, however, Merger Takeover Conspiracy is a compelling narrative with aspects of a murder mystery within a modern-day business story of greed, ruthlessness, and duplicity.
		Thomsen's novel can be read on many levels: as a gripping crime story about brutal crimes; as a narrative of the unfolding of a master plan for a complex, high-stakes merger; as a portrayal of corporate society; and as a cautionary tale about the personal tragedies caused by systematic illegal activity in large businesses.

	Bambooweb: Takeover
		A takeover in commerce refers to one company (the acquirer) purchasing another (the target).
		Corporate takeovers occur readily in the United States and in the United Kingdom.
		Some takeovers are opportunistic: the target company may simply be very reasonably priced, for one reason or another, and the acquiring company may decide that in the time period that's important to it, it will end up making money by purchasing the target company, because of its normal profitability.

		One thing to consider is that each "top application" is moved as one entity, and as soon as takeover is finished, the old instance is terminated.

	Def Jam: Fight for NY: The Takeover (PSP) Reviews. PSP Games Reviews by CNET. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		A weird mixture of wrestling, fighting, and hip-hop, Fight for NY was one of the big surprises of that year, providing a brutally enjoyable combat system and an oddly engaging character-customization system to go along with some great presentational components.
		What it boils down to with Def Jam: Fight for NY: The Takeover is that if you already took the plunge with the original Fight for NY back in 2004, there's nothing particularly pressing about this PSP update to require a purchase.
		However, if you did happen to miss out on such a quality game back in the day, The Takeover proves to be a great way to get acquainted with what you missed out on and is easily one of the best brawlers available for the PSP system.
