Business as usual (or the folly of petitions)
2008-04-07 23:30:00 The Government has published a response to the (now closed) e-petition against the Longdendale Bypass today. We'd rather comment on it before we publish it here, then you can choose to read it if you can be bothered.Let's face it, you know how it reads, you've heard it many times before. But what is a real slap in the face is the last two paragraphs that appear to stamp out any hope that the government will listen to reason about Woodhead. Clearly, the time for polite campaigning and asking the government to do things is drawing to a close. Only today, NASA (of all people!) have pointed out that the EU's Carbon Emission Reduction targets are set far too low. In a phrase that should send a chill down everyone's spine, Dr James Hansen from NASA said further cuts were needed if "humanity wishes to preserve a planet similar to that on which civilisation developed".Clearly, the future does not lie with those who will not change radically, nor their institutions. This veritable 'Gas...

Life without Pedro is business as usual for Mets
2008-04-02 13:12:00 So although his latest injury, officially termed a strained left hamstring pending an MRI this morning in New York, is a personal setback for Pedro and a downer dropped right on top of the high provided by Johan Santana's brilliant debut Monday, it is hardly a death sentence for the 2008 season according to Newsday. For the past three seasons, Life Without Pedro has been business as usual for the Mets. In 2005, they shut him down for the last two weeks of the season with foot problems. In 2006, right at the cusp of the postseason, he was shut down with a torn calf tendon. Later, it was discovered he also had a torn rotator cuff. Goodbye 2007. Now, a year removed from major shoulder surgery and six months shy of his 37th birthday, did anyone really expect that Pedro was going to be capable of doing what he had not done since 2004 with the Red Sox? Namely, pitch a full season?Face it, this was going to happen sooner or later, and as Billy Wagner pointed out in a matter-of-fact Mets c...

Big Business as Usual: New Diversity of Voices Policy for Canadian Media Di
2008-02-06 14:00:00 After weeks of hearings and over 2,000 submissions from Canadians and media companies, the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) has finally issued their new policy concerning Diversity of Voices in the Canadian broadcasting system. Industry representatives received the new policies warmly while activists and artists have been disappointed. In a recently released summary and analysis of the new policies, the Campaign for Democratic Media (CDM) raises a number of concerns: the new policies will not safeguard diversity of voices in local broadcast markets (diversity is measured on a national scale), and they do not require divestment on the part of Canadian media companies despite Canada having one of the most concentrated media systems in the Western world. "The absence of safeguards for local diversity in broadcasting," says CDM, "runs counter to the Commission?s own suggestion that any benefits related to increased consolidation should include imp...

Men At Work - Business As Usual [1982]
2007-12-24 09:18:00 Business as Usual became a surprise international hit on the basis of "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under," two excellent singles that merged straight-ahead pop/rock hooks with a quirky new wave production and an offbeat sense of humor. Colin Hay's keening vocals uncannily recall Sting, and the band's rhythmic pulse and phased guitars also bring to mind a bar band version of the Police. And that helps make the remainder of Business as Usual enjoyable. There's a fair amount of filler on the record, but "Be Good Johnny," "I Can See It in Your Eyes," and "Down by the Sea" are all fine new wave pop songs, making Business as Usual one of the more enjoyable mainstream-oriented efforts of the era.

It’s business as usual for UBS in Singapore
2007-12-16 23:43:00 It’s business as usual for UBS in Singapore By Lee Su Shyan, Assistant Money Editor INVESTING FOR THE FUTURE: Ms Ong says UBS is committed to nurturing more private bankers in Singapore.  WHEN Swiss banking giant UBS announced US$10 billion (S$14.3 billion) in write-downs last Monday, some clients were uneasy about their money. But they were relieved when they heard that the Government of Singapore Corporation (GIC) was going to pump money into UBS - 11 billion Swiss francs (S$13.9 billion) for an eventual 9 per cent stake. Some top-notch UBS clients in the region apparently thought it such an attractive deal that they even asked if there was a chance for them to participate as well. UBS Singapore says it is business as usual, with new money continuing to flow in from private banking clients. Though UBS is a leading global bank, its recent losses from the United States sub-prime crisis have taken some of the shine off its reputation. Regarding the write-downs, UBS Singap... |
