An alternate director is a person who is appointed to attend a meeting board meeting on behalf of the board of directors director of a company law company where the principal director would be otherwise unable to attend. The law relating to alternate directors varies from country to country, but in most jurisdictions, the alternate director has the same powers to attend, speak and vote at meetings as the principal director would have had, had the alternate not been appointed. In some jurisdictions, the alternate must also be a director in his or her own right so in effect, there would be one less person at the meeting, but the director who had also been appointed as an alternate would carry two votes . However such structures are not common in developed legal systems. The appointment of a temporary alternate is one of the few exceptions to the general rule that the office of a director is not assignable and non delegable. ref For example, in the United Kingdom, see section 308 of the Companies Act 1985 ref Footnote Reflist Category Corporations law ... more details

The Alternate Asimovs 1986 in literature 1986 is a collection of early science fiction drafts by American writer Isaac Asimov . Asimov mostly threw away early drafts. Just a few survived and were included in this anthology. It consists of three items Grow Old With Me , the original version of the novel Pebble in the Sky , never published in this form The End of Eternity , an unpublished 20,000 word novella that was extensively revised before appearing as the novel The End of Eternity Belief , two versions of a short story Grow Old With Me This is a shorter and less refined version of the book Pebble in the Sky set in the very early days of the Trantorian Empire whose eventual decline had been described in the Foundation novels. The plot is largely the same, though the chief villain is less developed. Asimov also explained how he began with the idea that Earth was radioactive from an atomic war. As he learned more, he became unhappy with the notion, reckoning that a war would not make the crust radioactive without also wiping out all life, hence the revised notion in Robots and Empire . The End of Eternity A 25,000 word novella that was extensively changed for the book length The End of Eternity , it tells of an organisation of time travellers dedicated to the betterment of humanity by tampering with history. However, control brings problems, sometimes tragedies. Elements of the later novel are there. But Andrew Harlan was a merger of two different characters from the short story. The ending is quite different, and Asimov himself called it weak. The biggest difference with the novel is that Eternity does not end it is heroically saved. The original story has Anders Horemm the technician who does the damage, and then Genro Manfield the historian who sets things right again. These were combined into Andrew Harlan for the novel. Anders Horemm has much the same relationship .... Isaac Asimov Novels Asimov story collections DEFAULTSORT Alternate Asimovs Category 1986 short ... more details
