...Wayne State University BA 6000 – Fall 2011 Case 1 ClearOne Communications, Inc. is a provider of end-to-end video and audio conferencing services, including the manufacture and sale of video and audio conferencing products. From its inception as a manufacturer of this equipment through 2001, ClearOne sold it products through a nationwide network of manufacturer's representatives. Sometime in early 2001, ClearOne decided to alter its business model and instead of using manufacturer's representatives, began selling its products through a nationwide network of distributors complemented by a direct sales force. Through early 2001, ClearOne experienced robust growth and increased product sales every quarter. From the selected financial data extracted from ClearOne's Form 10-Ks that follow, this growth appeared to continue through fiscal 2002. However, a complaint filed by the SEC against ClearOne alleges the truth may be different.

...Project : Micro Economics Topic : Euro Zone Deflation In 2014 By : Danish Naeem & Mr. Faheem-ur- Rehman. The euro zone The world’s biggest economic problem Deflation in the euro zone is all too close and extremely dangerous Oct 25th 2014 | From the print edition THE world economy is not in good shape. The news from America and Britain has been reasonably positive, but Japan’s economy is struggling and China’s growth is now slower than at any time since 2009. Unpredictable dangers abound, particularly from the Ebola epidemic, which has killed thousands in West Africa and jangled nerves far beyond. But the biggest economic threat, by far, comes from continental Europe. Now that German growth has stumbled, the euro area is on the verge of tipping into its third recession in six years. Its leaders have squandered two years of respite, granted by the pledge of Mario Draghi, the European Central Bank’s president, to do “whatever it takes” to save the single currency. The French and the Italians have dodged structural reforms, while the Germans have insisted on too much austerity. Prices are falling in eight European countries. The zone’s overall inflation rate has slipped to 0.3% and may well go into outright decline next year. A region that makes up almost a fifth of world output is marching towards stagnation and deflation. Optimists, both inside and outside...

...OBE49749 Campaign for Sightsavers Tactical Response Recent research by the market research organisation DJS has revealed some intriguing trends in the attitudes of Britons to donating to charity (DJS 2013). For example, it was found that those who were earning an average income were more likely to donate to charities than those who were earning a higher than average income. Another very important finding of the survey was the fact that charities could be missing out on as much as £665 million in donations a year because they failed to address the main reasons for non-donation, which were found to be financial constraints and a distrust of charities due to lack of information. Among the concerns expressed by respondents were wastage costs, lack of transparency and administration costs. In other words, people were discouraged from donating to charities if they could not see a real and definite impact in the charity’s work. They wanted to feel that their donations were having a definite effect. Within this context then, the communication problems of a charity such as sight savers are twofold: On the one hand, the charity needs to make sure that it has a real presence in the public consciousness, and draw attention towards the urgency of the issues that it is concerned with. On the other hand, it needs to demonstrate to potential donors that their money is being used effectively to address these issues, and that a real impact is being made. A useful starting point for developing...

...The universal balance According to readings, my understanding of future studies integrate all the discipline from microcosm to macrocosm, from past to present, from philosophy to science, from political to ethical, from physical to mental, from nature to will. It is all about the uncertain and unknown changes. The change seeds in past and present. Future vision is born from listen, search and observation. The essential movement that differs from other field is to carry the seeds of change into the position that leads to action. While I am doing the reading, the name “Lao Tzu” and “Confucius” were always in my mind. Taoism and Confucianism have to be seen side-by-side as two distinct responses to the social, political and philosophical conditions of life two and a half millennia ago in China. They both talk about the two sides of one condition. But Confucianism is greatly concerned with social relations, conduct and human society. Taoism has a much more individualistic and mystical character, greatly influenced by nature called spontaneous behavior (wu-wei). In Lao Tzu's view things were said to create "unnatural" action (wei) by shaping desires (yu). The process of learning the names (ming) used in the doctrines helped one to make distinctions between good and evil, beautiful and ugly, high and low, and "being" (yu) and "non- being" (wu), thereby shaping desires. To abandon knowledge was to abandon names, distinctions, tastes and desires. Do nothing is not really doing...
