CIA - The World Factbook - Notes and Definitions This entry lists major infectious diseases likely to be encountered in countries where the risk of such diseases is assessed to be very high as compared to the United States. Detailing the standards that individual countries use to assess the ability to read and write is beyond the scope of the Factbook. An excess of persons entering the country is referred to as net immigration (e.g., 3.56 migrants/1,000 population); an excess of persons leaving the country as net emigration (e.g., -9.26 migrants/1,000 population). www.cia.gov /cia/publications/factbook/docs/notesanddefs.html   (9551 words)

PUTTING LIFE BEFORE DEBT The impact of debt is made worse by structural adjustment and stabilization policies which seek to correct macroeconomic problems and improve the management of public resources, yet often have the effect of limiting social expenditures, slowing investment, reducing the competitiveness of domestic firms, and increasing unemployment. These objectives can only be reached with the strong mobilization of public opinion, both in creditor and debtor countries. Hence, responsibilities exist not only for the debtor countries and their creditors, but for international institutions (some of which hold debts), for the more significant states with major economic roles in the world, and for non-governmental organizations, some of which are deeply involved in the lives of debtor nations. www.cidse.org /pubs/finaldebteng.html   (11474 words)

Education (Harpers.org) Voters in the Kansas Republican primary selected pro-evolution candidates for the state school board, ensuring thereby that the state's current science standards, which for the last three years have required the teaching of creationism in the schools, will be overturned. A Virginia state senator complained that “spineless pinkos” in the House of Delegates education committee were ruining his efforts to require that public school children recite the pledge of allegiance every morning. The Kansas state board of education voted to restore the teaching of evolution in the public schools. www.harpers.org /Education.html   (4552 words)

Public Finance Government might be able to have a budget surplus, spend it on infrastructure and keep public debt low - by allocating budget surplus to Future Fund, and investing this in private infrastructure projects. Countries with reduced top marginal tax rates had economic growth rates from 1980-2000 three times higher than those that did not (Robson A., 'Lower rax rates for a truly beautiful set of numbers', A, 18/5/05). Greiner's acceptance of public choice theory was seen to have motivated the early adoption of accrual accounting - and its emulation elsewhere. cpds.apana.org.au /Teams/Archive/public_finance.htm   (15119 words)

Bilderberg Conference 2005, 5-8 May, Rottach-Egern, Munich, Germany - and this year's Bilderberg news This confirms public statement made in 2003 by HIS, the world´s most respected consulting firm cataloguing oil reserved and discoveries that for the first time since the 1920s there was not a single discovery of an oil field in excess of 500 million barrels. Hubbard, assistant to the president for Economic Policy, laconically stated that the general public does not realize that the price for cheap oil can be the bursting of the debt bubble. Dunn and Bradstreet lists the supposedly nonprofit foundation as a "management trust," designed for "purposes other than education, religion, charity or research." The group's spokesman says this designation was a "mistake," and anyway, the institute is hastily being "re-launched" with a "new focus" on its religious mission. www.bilderberg.org /2005.htm#Marek   (18577 words)

The Corner on National Review Online Until recently, the country's 'senate' (the House of Lords) was a motley blend of judges, bishops, hereditary peers and a mass of stooges, cronies and the retired appointed as 'life peers' by various grateful governments. For public librarians, especially Reference librarians, much of their day is spent wading through library seating packed with drunks, the homeless, and leagues of people who are, to one extent or another, sociopaths. The huge wave of public opposition, even in relatively liberal Canada, where the public once slightly favored gay marriage but is now evenly divided, means that in the United States, where the public is clearly opposed, we can expect a far stronger response to any state-level decision to legalize gay marriage. www.nationalreview.com /thecorner/03_09_14_corner-archive.asp   (11411 words)

MOFA: Japan's Basic Position on the Debt Problem Faced by the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPCs) When purchasing imported goods with debt-relief grant aid, the debtor country is completely free to decide from which country it will import; eligible source countries are OECD members and developing countries and territories on the DAC List of Aid Recipients, excluding the debtor country itself. Debt relief alone is not a panacea for the problem of poverty in developing countries. Japan is a major donor not just for Asian countries but also for the HIPCs, comprising mainly African countries, to which its provision of ODA, mainly in the form of grants, ranks as one of the largest (see Chart 2). www.mofa.go.jp /policy/oda/loanaid/debt0002.html   (796 words)

CIA - The World Factbook -- Nigeria In November 2005, Abuja won Paris Club approval for an historic debt relief deal that by March 2006 should eliminate $30 billion worth of Nigeria's total $36 billion external debt. In the last year the government has begun showing the political will to implement the market-oriented reforms urged by the IMF, such as to modernize the banking system, to curb inflation by blocking excessive wage demands, and to resolve regional disputes over the distribution of earnings from the oil industry. The largely subsistence agricultural sector has failed to keep up with rapid population growth - Nigeria is Africa's most populous country - and the country, once a large net exporter of food, now must import food. www.cia.gov /cia/publications/factbook/geos/ni.html   (1402 words)

Report of the Independent Expert on human The total debt of developing countries has risen relentlessly from $1.6 trillion in 1993 to $1.9 trillion in 1995.
