National Institutes of Health's Chief said: Ignore new recommendations by USPSTF!

2009-11-22T09:46:00.000-08:00

Well done, Dr. Bernadine Healy!

Dr. Healy is the Chief of National Institutes of Health -NIH- and tomorrow told Fox News Sunday: "I'm saying very powerfully ignore them".

She said also: "This will increase the number of women dying of breast cancer. Women in their 40s have a very aggressive kind of breast cancer. They tend to progress fast. And to not screen women in that age group is astounding to me, and it goes against the bulk of individuals who are actually caring for patients. You may save some money, Chris, but you're not going to save lives".

In other words, Dr. Healy clearly said that if the new guidelines are followed, more women will die of breast cancer.

Glenn Beck talks with Dr. Healy about the US Preventative Services Task Force: you must view it!

PS3 & 3D - Dreams became true!

2009-11-20T11:46:00.000-08:00

Sony has formally announced plans to bring TRUE 3D gaming to PS3.

In a presentation optimized to outline advantages of PlayStation 3 Sony stated: "all PS3 units will be firmware upgradeable to 3D".

But 3D without 3D games is nothing so Sony also promised to "release 3D games".

The question is: When? Sony hasn't yet released a firm date, but says that it will came at the end of 2010.

We can just wait and hope that they will work hardly for us.

PS3 with Facebook integration now is possible!

Obama administration and Companies say: Mammogram coverage won't change!

2009-11-19T04:07:00.000-08:00

The Obama administration distanced itself from new standards recommended this week by U.S. Preventivate services Task Force -USPSTF- saying government insurance programs would continue to cover routine mammograms for women start at age 40.

Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of health and human services stressed that the task force "is an outside indipendent panel of doctors and scientist who make recommendations" and who neither "set federal policy" nor "determine what services are covered by the federal government".

She also said: "I would be very surprised if any private insurance company changed its mammography coverage".

And now, let's see what companies say.

USA TODAY contacted same companies (Kaiser Permanente, Aetna, Cigna, Geisinger Health Plan, Group Health Cooperative and WellPoint) and they say that they will continue paying for mammograms for womein in their 40s. Those companies operate Blue Cross/Blue Shield plans in 14 states and cover more than 73 million people.

Companies, however, are not ignoring the task force's advice.

WellPoint says that the company considers the task force's recommandations but also weights advice from the American Cancer Society and American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Group Health Cooperative says that the company plans to look at the task force's recommendations next year but it would still pay for the screening.

Till When?

Breast Cancer Screening: Let's Laugh!

2009-11-17T13:17:00.000-08:00

U.S. Preventivate Services Task Force -USPSTF-, on Monday, released new raccomendations for women getting mammograms.

USPSTF now says that women who are not at risk (lack a family history of the disease) should get mammogram once every two years starting at age 50. Here is the reasons (they say):

mammograph yeld modest benefits -don't make me laugh-;
wholesale screening puts women at risk for unnecessary medical treatments.

Before considering above points, I have a question: Who can be considered risk free?

Let's talk about the first point: USPSTF's collected data tell us that screening reduces the breast cancer death rate by 15%. Do you think 15% is not enoguht? Do you think 15% is not relevant?

I think ONE live spared is relevant!
I think US people think the same!
I'm sure GOD thinks the same.

Let's talk about the second point: USPSTF experts tell us that unclear or false results (we are talking about mammograph) can cause doctors to perform invasive tests like biopsies: they can cause patients to suffer extreme anxiety. I agree with them: I don't like needles, scalpes and I hate injections; but if I have to deal with cancer/death I prefer deal with anxiety!

By the way, before you get to do a biopsy why don't you think to do another mammograph in another medical center subjecting it to another specialist (doctor)?

I am an Italian citizen who speaks English badly (and writes it worse!) attending and working with medical researchers: when they read this news have expressed their total dissatisfaction.

They say that women over 40 y.o. have to get their annual mammograms.

Mesothelioma Victims

2009-09-22T02:05:00.000-07:00

Mesothelioma is not a disease that can be detected easily as it rarely gives out symptoms at its early stage in the body. Even with the symptoms, diagnosing the disease is difficult as these symptoms are very common with other diseases too.

Within this backdrop, patients' medical histories can help diagnose the disease. Therefore, physicians inquire about a patient's medical history if they suspect mesothelioma might be the case. Then the X-ray is performed and if necessary CT scan or MRI is also performed.

With these scans, the amount of fluid if it is present can be seen and this fluid is then aspirated with the help of a syringe. While a pleural tap is used to extract pleural fluid, the fluid in pericardial cavities is taken out by pericardiocentesis. Paracentesis is performed to take out fluid in abdomen.

If these fluids give out evidences of having mesothelioma, physicians do further tests on patients to prove the conditions clearly. At this stage, mostly a biopsy is done and tissues are sent to the pathologist for microscopic tests. Depending on the locations of the cancer, the methods used for biopsies can be different from each other. As an example, for cancer in the chest, thoracoscopy is performed to get tissues, in which, the physician make small incision on the chest wall and insert a thoracoscope between the ribs. In this way, the doctor can examine the inside of the chest cavities and extract tissue samples for microscopic testing.

On the other hand, to get tissue samples from a mesothelioma patient in the abdominal cavities, a laparoscopy is done. During this procedure a very small cut is made on the abdominal areas large enough to insert an instrument into the abdomen. Sometimes the procedure is not sufficient to take out enough tissues for the microscopic test and if this is the case, another major surgery has to be performed.

Student Loan Consolidation: Why to Consolidate ?

2009-09-22T02:00:00.000-07:00

Both federal student loan consolidation and private student loan consolidation offer the benefit of a significantly lower monthly payment and simplified finances. If you want to consolidate student loans, begin with your federal Stafford, Parent PLUS, Perkins, and all Federal FFELP and Federal Direct Loans that were taken out for your education. Private student loan consolidation is a separate program that allows you to refinance all non-federal, education related debt.
Even if you can make the monthly payments from your original school loans, you may still want to consider consolidating to lower your payments and free up money for bills with higher interest rates. These include credit cards and personal loans, neither of which have tax-deductible interest.

Mortgage Refinancing

2009-09-22T01:54:00.000-07:00

In recent years, millions of homeowners have taken advantage of low rates and refinanced their mortgages. This article describes the advantages and possible pitfalls associated with a "refi."

Before You Start:

Remember that refinancing to reduce debt can be a smart move, but refinancing in order to borrow more for consumer purchases (car, vacation, etc.) could set you back significantly.
Read the fine print on your current mortgage to learn whether you'll be assessed penalties or fees for "getting out" of that loan early.
Make sure you know whether you have a fixed or variable interest rate and what the terms are.
Home Refinancing Basics

In recent years, Americans seeking to take advantage of low interest rates have lined up to refinance their mortgages. In fact, refinancing hit an all-time high in 2003, and remained high in both 2004 and 2005, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association of America.

But while it's true that refinancing has the potential to help you reduce the costs associated with borrowing money to own a home, it is not necessarily a strategy that makes sense for every individual in every situation. So before you make a commitment to refinance your mortgage, it's important to do your homework and determine whether such a move is the right one for you.

To Refinance or Not

The old and arbitrary rule of thumb said that a refi only makes sense if you can lower your interest rate by at least two percentage points for example, from 9 percent to 7 percent. But what really matters is how long it will take you to break even and whether you plan to stay in your home that long. In other words, make sure you understand - and are comfortable with - the amount of time it will take for your overall savings to compensate for the cost of the refinancing.

Consider this: If you had a $200,000 30-year mortgage with an 8 percent interest rate, your monthly payment would be $1,468. If you refinanced at 6 percent, your new monthly payment would be $1,199, a savings of $269 per month. Assuming that your new closing costs amounted to $2,000, it would take eight months to break even. ($269 x 8 = $2,152). If you planned to stay in your home for at least eight more months, then a refi would be appropriate under these conditions. If you planned to sell the house before then, you might not want to bother refinancing. (See below for additional examples.)

Remember: All Mortgages Are Not Created Equal

Don't make the mistake of choosing a mortgage based only on its stated annual percentage rate (APR), because there are a variety of other important variables to consider, such as:

The term of the mortgage - This describes the amount of time it will take you to pay off the loan's principal and interest. Although short-term mortgages typically offer lower interest rates than long-term mortgages, they usually involve higher monthly payments. On the other hand, they can result in significantly reduced interest costs over time.

The variability of the interest rate - There are two basic types of mortgages: those with "fixed" (i.e., unchanging) interest rates and those with variable rates, which can change after a predetermined amount of time has passed, such as one year or five years. While an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) usually offers a lower introductory rate than a fixed-rate mortgage with a comparable term, the ARM's rate could jump in the future if interest rates rise. If you plan to stay in your home for a long time, it may make sense to opt for the predictability and security of a fixed rate, whereas an ARM might make sense if you plan to sell before its rate is allowed to go up. Also keep in mind that interest rates hovered near historical lows in recent years and are more likely to increase than decrease over time.

Points - Points (also known as "origination fees" or "discount fees") are fees that you pay to a lender or broker when you close the deal. While a "no-cost" or "zero points" mortgage does not carry this up-front cost, it could prove to be more expensive if the lender charges a higher interest rate instead. So you'll need to determine whether the savings from a lower rate justify the added costs of paying points. (One point is equal to one percent of the loan's value.)

Stick With What You Know?

Finally, keep in mind that your current lender may make it easier and cheaper to refinance than another lender would. That's because your current lender is likely to have all of your important financial information on hand already, which reduces the time and resources necessary to process your application. But don't let that be your only consideration. To make a well-informed, confident decision you'll need to shop around, crunch the numbers, and ask plenty of questions.

Summary:

The decision to refinance should only be made if the long-term savings outweigh the initial expenses. To calculate your break-even point, divide the cost of the refi by your monthly savings. The resulting figure represents the number of months you will need to stay in the home to make the strategy work.
Don't select a new mortgage based only on its annual percentage rate.
Also evaluate the term of the loan, whether the interest rate is fixed or variable, and the relative merits of paying up-front fees in exchange for a lower rate.
Your current lender already knows you and has your financial information on file, so you may be able to get a better deal that way, instead of going to a new lender.
To get the best possible refinancing deal, you'll need to shop around, crunch some numbers, and ask a lot of questions.
Checklist:

Shop around and conduct a detailed cost assessment (with a financial professional, if necessary) to identify which mortgage offers the greatest financial benefits.
Read the entire contract before signing. Don't let anyone pressure you or rush you to make a hasty decision.
If refinancing results in lower monthly payments, use those savings to pursue other important goals, such as preparing for retirement and college costs.

Online Degree Accounting

2009-09-22T01:33:00.000-07:00

There are many reasons to consider getting an accounting education or degree online versus the more traditional classroom method. Online learning, however, is not for everyone. Before spending any money or wasting any time, you should carefully evaluate the major pros and cons of getting an accounting education or degree online.

Pros of Getting an Accounting Education or Degree Online

Accounting education and degree programs are easy to translate into a distance learning format, which is why online accounting programs have been around nearly as long as the Internet itself.

Most of the benefits of getting an accounting education or degree online are obvious. You can choose any school you want regardless of your location. You also save money on housing costs and/or commuting expenses, and in most cases, tuition.

Studying online also gives you the benefit of choosing when and where you will complete a class. If you have a job, kids, or a busy social life, this is much more convenient than taking classes that are scheduled by someone else.

Cons of Getting an Accounting Education or Degree Online

While there are many people out there who argue that there are only benefits and no negatives to online accounting education, there are some aspects that could be considered disadvantageous.

For example, students who prefer hands on experience and face-to-face interaction can sometimes find it difficult to learn outside the traditional classroom setting, even in an accounting program. For students like this, the online learning experience may not yield the same results as being physically present in a classroom.

Instructors can also be a problem if they are new to online teaching or unfamiliar with constantly evolving accounting and teaching software. Of course, this shouldn't be an issue for students who carefully research various programs and ask questions about instructors and curriculum prior to enrolling.

Students and New Fashions

Today we are living in an age of changing fashions. Everyday we see a change in the fashions of clothes and hair-styles. Cinema is the home of new fashions. Young boys and girls borrow fashions from there. They copy the fashions of their favorite film stars from there. They want to excel each other in fashion. But only few students can afford to adopt this fashion. They come dressed in new fashion. They make fun of those who put on out of dated dresses. As a result even those students whose parents cannot afford rich dresses are tempted to be fashionable. Sometimes they borrow money and things from their rich friends whenever they have to attend some party. It often leads to quarrels. They often go astray. However, one should believe in simple living and high thinking.

Copying in the examination

They write answers from expected questions on bits of papers in small handwritings. They take this material in the examination Hall for copying. Worry and fear are writ large on their faces. The invigilators easily trace them. Some of them cannot copy. As a result they fail. Only a few succeed in copying. They, too fail to get good marks. There is no substitute of hard work.

Union is strength

2008-09-01T06:17:00.000-07:00

This proverb stresses the importance of unity for survival. Union is strength. If we remain united, no adversary can do us any harm. We may be physically weak, but we can come a powerful enemy as long as we remain together, each for all and all for each. The child-heard story of father making his five sons understand the value of union does prove the point. One by one five sticks can be broken by a man. If five sticks are tied together they can not be broken by a man. What is true of sticks is true of a nation also. If a nation stands united, no outsider can think of defeating it.

Better alone than in bad company

2008-08-29T06:02:00.000-07:00

The man, they say, is known by the company he keeps. Such is the influence of company on man. In fact, the persons who are men’s friends and whose company he enjoys are the indicators of disposition, character and nature. However virtuous a man may be he can not remain virtuous if he sits in the company of vicious persons. Bad company is catchy because evil has always been more tempting than good. A rotten apple spoils the whole lot. This is equally true of a man of evil character. He spreads his evil influence whither he goes. It is therefore wisely said, “Better alone than in a bad company.”

Honest Means of Livelihood

2008-08-28T11:16:00.000-07:00

Honesty is the best policy. We should be honest in whatever we do. It is, however, very difficult to adopt honest means of livelihood. This is often seen that people who adopt dishonest ways become rich overnight. On the other hand, those who follow the path of honesty are often seen struggling in life to satisfy their barest needs. This might have dampening effect on their nerves and they might be tempted to earn easy money by adopting unfair means. But we should remember that money earned by dishonest means never brings happiness. A man who adopts honest means to earn his living might spend a life of want and poverty, but he is contented. He is far better than a wealthy person who has amassed a huge fortune by adopting dishonest means.

They forget that, work, hard work alone, is the key to success. Lives of great men are shining examples of dedication to work. What is true of an individual is true of a nation also.

The early riser finishes a large amount of work before other men have got out of bed. In the early morning the mind is fresh and there are no distractions so that the work done at this time is generally ell done. An early riser also finds time to take some exercise in the fresh morning air and this exercise supplies him with a fund of energy that will last until the evening. He goes to sleep several hours before midnight at the time when sleep is most refreshing and after a night’s sound rest, rises early next morning in good spirits.

2008-08-22T05:12:00.000-07:00

There was a time when people were proud of having large families. But things are changed now. People are beginning to realize that a large family poses many problems not only to the children and parents but also to the nation. When there are many children to look after, parents just cannot look to their basic needs. As a result the children suffer, the parents suffer, and the nation suffers. Therefore family planning is essential. Parents can look after their children properly if they have two or three children. They can pay due attention to their up bringing and education. Naturally, the children will grow into good citizens. A small family is indeed, a happy family.

They forget that old is gold for the obvious reasons that it has stood the test of time. Old has grace of its own. Look at an old man. Are you not reminded of the serenity of the winter landscape of the mountains? Taste old wine. Does it not taste better? We make new acquaintances every day, but it is a different thing to meet an old friend. New may appeal our eye, but old thrills our soul. We should learn to look at old with reverence.

I like the manner in which every bit of detail is made available for the benefit of the buyer .But certainly, one thing I did not like during the search of my credit card experience is that entire details are not in tabular form making it difficult to compare of the superiority of the credit card with one another, as a result of which choosing a card becomes more time consuming.

Nuclear family Vs Joint family

2008-08-18T05:40:00.000-07:00

A nuclear family is one where parents and children live together in a home separate to the rest of their extended family. A joint family is one having consisting of parents, children and other close relative such as grand parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, often living in close proximity. No doubt both have their advantages and disadvantages. The joint family has the advantage of shared work, shared focus, shared values old world wisdom and modern ideas working side by side. Members of joint family support each other in difficult times. Nevertheless I support the idea of nuclear family because of the reason that the generation gap which gives rise o conflicting set of values becomes battle ground for members which steals the peace of the house. Couples find it easier to live separate to preserve peace, love and affection rather than letting it all get marred by daily clashes. Nuclear family gives couples a sense of freedom and pursue a life style they want

BEST ACNE TREATMENTS

2008-08-05T05:36:00.000-07:00

Sulphur treatments were considered as the best acne treatments. They resulted in abrasion of the skin and were used as disinfectants. Eventually, scientists came up with the conclusion that sulphur based compounds that are used for acne problem further aggravate the problem. The best known ointments contain the compound benzoyl peroxide which works by the cleaning obstructions that cause acne.

The disadvantage is that it lack the long-term benefits, but it will usually provide good results provided it is used in suitable conditions. At the start of such problems, dermatologists will advise patients with some preventive measures which should not be taken for granted. Some of them include – maintenance of proper hygiene and controlling diet. Regular cleaning of the area of infection with a wet cloth gently is a must do. What this does is that it helps the anti acne ointments to perform better and output good results.

Many have claimed success by saying that applying all sorts of home made products such as vinegar, tomato juice etc, but these are not proven. So there is no need to waste your time into such practices. Domestic therapies have provided satisfactory results. The best nature has to offer is the tea tree oil for controlling acne. But one should also note that the use of tea tree oil induces the production of sebum. So following the application one must wash his/her face cleanly. Some scientific research claims that aloe Vera gel helps in controlling acne. Green tea possesses properties of detoxifying and can put a stop to hormonal activity. In conclusion, one should remember the basic – it is to drink plenty of water as it helps nourish the skin.

Causes Of Acne

2008-07-13T05:35:00.000-07:00

Puberty is when acne begins for most teenagers. At this time, androgen hormones are secreted from the body. This causes the sebaceous glands to become turgid. Some women are known to be sensitive to theses hormone secretion which can result in the commencement of acne problems during menstrual cycle or even during pregnancy. The sebaceous glands secrete oils that along with the dead skin cells block the pores of the skin. Bacteria start multiplying and cause boils in the spots. One should keep in mind that certain skin care products which claim to make skin smoother can actually aggravate the problem by making the skin even oilier. Stress is another major cause of acne as it induces the production of certain hormones.

Other causes include:
Sometimes acne is genetic.
When a person is on certain medication or steroids.
Using cosmetics that make skin oily.
Harsh cleaning of the skin.

One should also know the common misconception of causes of acne.
Not caused because of dirt
It is not a communicable disease

More carbohydrates and sugar and help in the production of insulin which can in turn help in production of hormones. More hormones will mean greater secretion of oils and greater amounts of bacteria. All these possibilities can combine to the f formation of acne.

Prevention of Acne

2008-07-08T07:30:00.000-07:00

For teenagers, getting rid of acne has become essential, mostly because this occurs at an age when people are most concerned about their physical features. Teenagers are so concerned mainly because it is agonizing and embarrassing. No teenager is spared from a long duration of acne problems. Acne problems arise mainly due to increase in hormones in the body. The dismal part about acne is that it seems to arise only in the parts of the body which are exposed these days due to fashion trends. Teenagers who complain about oily skin during acne problems are one hundred percent correct, since hormonal activity is increased, which in turn causes the skin to secrete more oils. Most of the ointments available today in the market contain specific chemical compounds such as benzoyl peroxide. There is an assumption in teenagers that acne arises due to improper hygienic conditions or inapt nutrition, which is not the case. Dieting and other methods of getting healthier will do little towards the prevention of acne. Regular maintenance of the skin by cleaning the skin definitely helps to a certain extent. But one must make sure not to take it to a level where he/she refers to harsh products. The only thing this will do is intensify the oil secretion in the skin. Constant shampooing of hair and regular wiping of the entire face, not only the areas affected, can help. Constant contact of the acne infected area with the fingers and scratching is restricted. Such acts can result in discoloration of the skin. One shouldn’t disclose the skin to open sunlight for long hours and the use of tanning lamps should be limited. Women must be aware of the ingredients used in the cosmetics that are applied to the skin (products without oily compounds should be used).

2008-06-11T07:21:00.000-07:00

Every now and then a horror film is that the money is counterfeit products trends and manages to scare a number of unique chills.

Say hello to "The Strangers," a spare, creepily atmospheric psychological thriller with a death grip on the psychological aspect.

First-time director Bryan Bertino - his script was a quarterfinalist for the prestigious Nicholl Fellowship grant - has a cue from the fear of the films'70, but unlike others call the era, the influences more character-rooted than derivatively stylized.

Although horror generally has a bit of a beating at the box-office in recent times, fans should be able to distinguish "Strangers" as the real work, the provision of Rogue Pictures with a lucrative little "death in the country" counter programming to "Sex and the City.”

Film Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

2008-06-06T09:51:00.000-07:00

As you know, the film was announced as a return of Indiana Jones instead appears to be a sequel to "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."

Extraterrestrials a spaceship and mix it up with well-lit caves, Tumbles over waterfalls and swings through the jungle that would Tarzan gap. Director Steven Spielberg seems intent for the celebration of his entire career in the early film "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Crystal Skull". What story there is a dark journey to return a spectacular archaeological find to their rightful home - a particular purpose of the old grave-robber - is flooded with a sea of stunts and CGI, that his relentless as the scenes and the character of The relations charm less.

"Crystal Skull" will be among the general public opens Thursday throughout the world. Indeed it was the public the day of the project was announced. What is disappointing for those who fondly remember "Raiders of the Lost Ark, 'lo these 27 years ago, the loss of humor and romance.

Box Office: Indy's Near-Record Weekend -- $126M For Four Days, $151M for Five

2008-06-06T09:40:00.000-07:00

Looks like "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'' will miss the all-time Memorial Day box-office crown by around $4 million, but nobody at Paramount or Lucas film is complaining. The official studio estimates won't be out until this afternoon and the "final'' numbers until a day after that, but Steve Mason at Fantasy Moguls was projecting at midnight that Indy's number for the four-day holiday weekend was a mighty $126.28, nothing to sneeze at. In unadjusted dollars, it's the No. 2 Memorial Day weekend opener ever, behind last year's "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End,'' which managed $139.8 million. Mase estimates that when you add in Thursday's numbers, the five-day total is $151.32. That would make it the fifth best five-day opening ever, after "Revenge of the Sith,'' "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest,'' and the second and third Spider-Man movies.

2008-06-01T09:38:00.000-07:00

Remember those predictions that "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Crystal Skull'' the crown for best Memorial Day Weekend and Best 5 Opening Day away from another George Lucas production," The revenge of the Sith.''Paramount opening-day estimate is $ 25 million, exactly half what "Sith'' reports Steve Mason on Fantasy Moguls, who says audiences are skewing heavily to boomers and Gen X'ers - who presumably will be along to the kids and grandkids at the weekend for better daily numbers.

Have you ever played paintball?

2008-05-25T10:13:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday I played paintball for the first time in my life, though I was eliminated in 14 minutes (good for the first time) I really enjoyed the overall experience. For those of you who don't know what paintball is, it is a sport in which players eliminate opponents from play by hitting them with paint filled, breakable, gelatin paintballs shot from a carbon dioxide or compressed air powered "paintball marker". If that intimidates you then please be aware that insurance statistics show that paintball is one of the safest sports, with fewer injuries per exposure compared to other sports.

I am looking forward to play again, and this time i am going to be prepared with the complete gear and highly efficient and reliable guns. My favorite site for purchasing gear is www.pntball.com.
They have all the popular brands like Tippmann, Spyder, Smart Parts, Dye, Empire, Draxxus and many more. among those my favorite is spyder paintball

They are an absolutely fantastic site and they always are in stock. They offer the best prices and free shipping. Some of their top selling guns are Tippmann A-5, Tippmann 98 Custom, Smart Parts Ion, Spyder Pilot ACS. They even accept payments by Paypal.

You can join any Paintball league in your area and believe me you'll defenately enjoy it, and you already know from where to get your gear! :-)

Cheers

A Glimpse at ASX

2008-05-24T07:20:00.000-07:00

There have been three known methods undertaken by which Australian stocks have been traded ever since the very first Australian
exchange was founded in 1861 and took place in Melbourne, the second most populous city next to Sydney. The first method simply
involved talking: a call out system of sorts. It was as easy and as simple as announcing the available stocks for bidding.
This particular method, however, was scrapped when the volume of trading dramatically soared as a result of the mining boom in 1969.
The verbal auction was “silenced” and a new system was introduced by the Australians. Aptly called the chalk system, Australian
traders (better known that time as “chalkies”) would write down on chalkboards (using chalks of course).

Stock exchange exists in each major city in Australian, and there were actually six various exchanges applicable for Australian
stocks. In the late 1980’s, in 1987 to be precise, The Australian Stock Exchange or ASX was introduced and this new entity paved
way for Australians to use a state-of-a-kind trading platform: a fully-digital trading platform, that is.

The Stock Exchange Automated Trading System or SEATS is that all-digital trading platform that made all those shouting and scribbling
in chalks a part of a bygone era. The trading floors were closed since the automation or digitalizing of the trading system was executed.
The almost staggering prices of fees appropriated for brokerages dramatically went down due to the advent of SEATS. Brokerage fees
indeed reached its lowest rates and it’s apparent with fees that go between .12 AUD to .18 AUD. Said fees are prevalent. Primarily,
stockbrokers were in full grasp of ASX until its demutualization took place. In 1996, it was included in the public list of companies in Australia.

When Australian BHP merged with British Billiton, the biggest mining corporation in the world was created. The result is BHP Billiton
(a huge global producer of petroleum, iron, coal, bauxite and even diamonds) that with reports in 2004, it was noted that the said company
has the largest stock in ASX amounting to a total of 6.6% market capitalization, and this fact placed ASX in the 8th place among the largest
exchanges in the world. Under 2000 stocks, it has become home to a little above 2% of world wide stock capital listing. Everyday, there are
approximately 99,300 trades placed on the exchange.

Trading hours on the exchange occurs between 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. (Sydney time). Stocks are opened at different intervals. For the first
ten minutes, one will observe that sectors appear to open aimlessly. Well, do expect that sectors would commence opening casually. This action
is practiced to ensure that traders will not timing the transactions once they opened.

In Australia, Macquarie Bank is the lone major bank that involves itself in the exchange. Still, one will also find banks that trade internationally and are known huge players in the global arena such as Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley participating on the exchange along with Macquarie. In the London Stock Exchange, Macquarie Bank made a bid in February 2006, but unfortunately the bank was repulsed, or to say it in another way, was given the cold shoulder.

Australia’s markets are made up of foreign ownership (40% and the biggest), retail investors (30%) and Institutional ownership (30%).

Hi,
What do you think of My Samsung Bribery Case Study Paper?
Thanks

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction:

Samsung, which accounts for more than 20 percent of South Korea's economy, is now in trouble. It is currently under investigation by a special prosecutor after its former chief lawyer blew the whistle on an alleged network of slush funds worth more than US$200 million supposedly used to bribe politicians, journalists and prosecutors. The results of the Samsung probe are due within weeks and, as expected, prosecutors will announce indictments against at least some of the Group's chief officers. Moreover, about 500 people took to the streets against Samsung's unethical problem so that it became even harder for Samsung to keep good reputation and impression. Kim has alleged the following:

200 billion gained (roughly $200 United States million.) the black case was created by the foreign offices of Samsung Corporation's.

The group of Samsung reversed laws of property of media by creating a confidence, which seems to be independent of the group, but is really ordered by Samsung chairman Lee Kun-hee, and transferring the ownership of Joongang Ilbo to the trust.

In 2000, the losses incurred by the subsidiary companies of Heavy Industries of Samsung's became too large to hide by fraudulent accountancy. To supplement the losses, the group of Samsung created an arrangement in which Samsung Electronics would buy parts at the inflated prices of these worried subsidiary companies. By using arrangement, the subsidiary companies illegally trapped the total of 7.2 trillions gained ($7.2 billion the United States.) of Samsung Electronics. After accountancy for circular properties among subsidiary companies of Samsung, the dregs Kun-hee and its family have less than 5% of Samsung Electronics, which means that at least 95% of the trapped funds of Samsung Electronics can be regarded as being taken pockets of the external shareholder.
Hong Rah-hee, the wife of Kun-hee of dregs of President de Samsung, diverted 60 billion gained ($60 United States million.) money of company to buy expensive work of art, among them happy tears of Roy Lichtenstein, which hangs in the manor of Lee of President.
Samsung financially supported former President Chun Doo-hwan during his exiles with the Buddhist temple of stopping SA of Baek under the orders of the dregs Byung-chul of then-President and of father of Kun-hee of dregs At this time, Chun hid investigations in its role in planning and carried out massacre 1980 of Gwangju where at least one thinks 165 demonstrators to be killed by the military officers under the ordering of Chun .
The dregs Kun-hee ordered various subsidiary companies Samsung to publish provision-convertible debts with a very small fraction of price of the market to its dregs Jae-yong of wire, enabling him to take the ordering of the group of Samsung with just 4 billion gained ($4 UNITED STATES million). It would have cost more than 10 trillions gained ($10 billion the United States.) to buy the shares on the free open market

A scandal of widening of corruption at Samsung absorbed the government of South Korea Monday as a prosecutor as a Roh Moo Hyun's nearest Roh and its higher agent of anticorruption faced allegations to accept accepting bribes from the conglomerate.

The accusations from Samsung's former chief lawyer, Kim Yong Chul, are a further blow to Roh, who in his final months in office has faced a slew of bribery scandals, some involving his top aides.

If nothing differently, the search for corruption already exposed the sequence in a fantastic way complexes financial reports/ratios which weave the group of Samsung together. It is a trellis which can not survive the transfer of the power starting from Mr. Lee his son.

Do Hoon Lee, of Macquarie Securities, said that a possible scenario is that the complicated’ structure of property of Samsung S manifestly could be consolidated under a holding company: a transition which is remained evasive for legal and cultural reasons.

While arrangements are held, the group of Samsung has “a circular” labyrinth of property, in which electronics, life insurance, the chart of credit rating and companies of park of topic piles of control in one of the others of each catch.

At the very least, of the analysts of word, it could encourage the fast changes of corporation which would have been unthinkable as recently as last year. The murmured charges of the corruption, current handling, tax avoidance and the dirty turns always surrounded the powerful South Korea’s mighty chaebol.

--------------------------

Problem Statement

Due to this investigation regarding bribery will create problems for Samsung in international market and they will face problems to establish a relationship with the world. Samsung not being able to solve problems wisely causes the loss of clients and consumers due to big scandals and now people will stay away from Samsung as they lost their global brand name which they earn from their quality service and brand image in home applications. Samsung losing credibility and reputation as an international company might affect its long-term business joint ventures because they need support from local companies in other country to stay in competition. Now company will think about to join them before make JV with Samsung.

Research Objectives

Well now they have to reimburse the company's name by reinforcing interpersonal skills and new management who can produce a good atmosphere as a clean organizing and give trust to shareholders and people around the world. They have to make clients and consumers aware of its international status as a manufacturing company and they are still best in this field. So people can trust them. They also make sure about this case and have to introduce ethical and supervised laws in the company to overview all business processes so in future they wouldn’t face such a case.

Research Questions

Now they have to research these three questions:

1. How can Samsung reinforce interpersonal skills since it already has a lot of connections?

2. In what way can Samsung convince and persuade clients and consumers to trust them again?

3. How can Samsung introduce ethical and supervised laws to restore its good reputation world wide when the company is not brand-new?

Answer is they have to make study of this case and find out the lope where these things happened. They know they have good interpersonal skills peoples and they have to choose a good person who can maintain their brand name and image. If they produce good interpersonal skills people then people can trust on their brand and company as people knows that Samsung did excellent business and provide quality products to people. They have to make transparent system so they can check each and every process of company.

----------------------------

Significance of study

Well it is very important to study this case we can learn many things from here. We first time even seen such a big global company was involved the bribery and I think it was a biggest scandal in South Korea as their president want to prove a bribe free nation and it happen just before his term ends. It is first time we seen a people runs a vast network of bribery through the government, the judiciary branch and the news media and that he himself bribed prosecutors on behalf of Samsung and its chairman, Lee Kun Hee. It will be show real truth of corporate and politics.

Significance of Study is that corruption is world wide problems and I think we should try to make a transparent system for governments and corporate to make a corruption free world because it involves huge amount of money which earned by common men.

Literature Review:

Well there are many cases for study where we can know different views on bribery. In India, few years ago there was a big scandal exposed when people know about Bofors scandal. The scandal of Bofors was an important scandal of corruption in India in the Eighties; the Prime Minister then Rajeev Gandhi and several others were shown to receive by-effects of Bofors AB to gain an offer to provide the howitzer of field of 155 mm to India. The balance of the corruption much worse than before which India had seen, and directly was carried out of it to the defeat of the reigning Indian part of the national congress of Gandhi in the general elections of November 1989.

The case emerged during the tenure of Vishwanath Pratap Singh as Minister for defense, and was filled with fuel by very pointed investigatory journalism by Chitra Subramaniam of the newspapers the Hindu one and the Indian.

The name of the intermediary joined the scandal was Ottavio Quattrocchi, an Italian businessman who represented the petrochemical products firm Snamprogetti. Quattrocchi was close to the family of the Prime Minister Rajeev Gandhi and emerged as powerful broker in the '80s between great businesses and the Indian government.

But now the case is totally silent and people now forgot about it. So it shows people can forgot everything when investigation time going longer and longer. Company also gets some time to re think about their branding and start the business once again,

There are many cases which we can study for bribery cases.

Another case study is Guinness share-trading fraud. The share-commercial fraud of Guinness was a famous British scandal of businesses of the Eighties. It implied an attempt to operate the stock exchange market on a massive scale to inflate the price of the shares of Guinness and to help of this fact £2.7 billion public offer of purchase for the Scot drinks distillers of company.

Another big one happened in early 90’s. The Harken Energy scandal refers to a series of transactions entered into during 1990 involving Harken Energy. These transactions are alleged to involve either issues relating to insider trading, or influence peddling.

The Lockheed bribery scandals encompassed a series of bribes and contributions made by officials of U.S. aerospace company Lockheed from the late 1950s to the 1970s in the process of negotiating the sale of aircraft.

The scandal caused considerable political controversy in West Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan. In the U.S. the scandal nearly led to the corporation's downfall, as it was already struggling due to the commercial failure of the L-1011 airliner.

Methodology

Findings

Well after doing this case study I can now able to solve the problems like this if it will occurs in my company or company where I will work. I have to take care about things which I found in this case and how can corporate sector involved in big scandal. I will put force on transparent system and policy in my company so people can see company’s activity and transition. So we can reduce chances of these types of corruptions.

When I have big responsibly I would hire only those persons who are honest and know brand images. We know that whole company’s image is depending on workers activity and their attitude towards to corruption.

Conclusion & Recommendations

In few case above I found that person who reviews the case doesn’t come out the motive which is main points in all cases because if we found the motive then we can easily solved the problems. Also he ignores to show suggestion to solve this crisis. I would put weight on solution and suggestion which helps to stop such corruptions in the corporate world and politics. There should be special independent vigilance departments to check this kind of corruption.

Myanmar to accept International Aid :-)

2008-05-13T01:06:00.000-07:00

Official news said on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, American will be sending more aid, since Myanmar had agreed to open its door for more assistance from the international community in the wake of the cyclone that struck it's coast a couple of days back. India has also decided to follow America's footsteps and has flown 50,000 food packets to the disaster struck country. It’s a good news for all the victims, and food supply has already started arriving. It's believed, that the junta soldiers picked the best food for themselves, while spoiled foods were given to the public. More than 60,000 people have been reported missing by the authorities. It is feared that a number of deaths will swell up to 100,000. Epidemics have spread throughout the city, and many people require medical attention. Yangoon has poor infrastructure and airports, thus this has caused delay of food delivery. Yangoon’s airport can’t process the cargo fast. And the worst part, the junta only supplies very limited of helicopters. Americahas sent almost 55,000-pound load, including blankets by Tuesday.

China Rocked!

Moreover, around 100,000 people are feared to be trapped under the debris of the collapsed building. Those who escaped are facing a fate even worser than death. No shelter, no food and separated family members. Most of the deaths took place in the Sichuan, the administrative capital of the Beichuan province. China has welcomed international Aid unlike its neighbor Myanmar. About 80% of the buildings have been reported to have collapsed. till last reports, in the city of Dujiangyan, 900 students were buried. Dujiangyan is also a part of Beichuan. The disaster has caused a terrible setback to the nations preparations for the Olympics. The Torch relay was also cut short, and a minute of silence was observed before the run. The earthquake recorded 7.8 on the Richter scale. It struck at 2.28p.m.The jolt was felt even in Thailand and Vietnam. Most of the major highways have been damaged and because of this 11 counties are no more reachable. A similar earthquake occurred in 1976 which claimed 300,000 victims.
