 Amazon.com: Morales: Music for Philip II: Music: Alonso Lobo,Cristobal de Morales   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
As usual, McCreesh sets the music in liturgical context (a memorial Mass for Philip II of Spain); the liturgy itself seems a work of art--for example, the gospel lesson (Jesus and Martha after the death of Lazarus) is unexpectedly touching.
Cristobal de Morales' work is shaped by the predominant importance of religious composition in 16th Century Spain, with this requiem representing one of the high points of this school of composition.
The audio quality of this album is excellent and the high quality artistic direction and performance of this work are an outcome of decades of increased interest and recording activity in the European Community in the area of early music.

 Basel Ii: The Revised Framework Of June 2004   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
A major aim of Basel II has been to revise the rules of the 1988 Basel Capital Accord in such a way as to align banks´ regulatory capital more closely with their risks, taking account of progress in the measurement and management of risk and of the opportunities which these provide for strengthened supervision.
The task of the designers of Basel II has been complicated by the way in which the BCBS´s rules for banks´ capital, originally intended for the internationally active banks of its member countries, have become a global standard widely applied in developing as well as developed countries.
Acceptance of this role by the BCBS has entailed a global consultation process, whose results have been reflected in three consultative papers and the RF, and the different approaches and options for setting numerical capital requirements which are intended to accommodate banks and supervisors of different levels of sophistication.

 Spain   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The two long reigns of Charles V (151666) and Philip II (1566-98) virtually spanning the century which witnessed the pinnacle of Spain's power and her incipient decline are the frame for this artistic development centred upon a Court which had infused an austere Castillian tradition with a Burgundian love of ostentation.
Every form of artistic endeavour was fostered by the Court and quickly copied by the Church and the nobility, already gathered into the Royal orbit during the previous reign.
This style, in which early Renaissance motifs such as antique heads with wreaths, cherubs, urns, trophies, masks, birds and grotesque half figures fill characteristically atectonic flat surfaces belongs to the reign of Charles V. It is known as plateresque because it was first applied to silver.
