To sceptics all this talk of twittering, yammering and chattering smacks of another internet bubble in the making. They argue that even a huge social network such as Facebook will struggle to make money because fickle networkers will not stay in one place for long, pointing to the example of MySpace, which was once all the rage but has now become a shadow of its former self. Last year the site, which is owned by News Corp, installed a new boss and fi red 45% of its staff as part of a plan to revive its fortunes.
Within companies there is plenty of doubt about the benefits of online social networking in the office. A survey of 1,400 chief information officers conducted last year by Robert Half Technology, a recruitment firm, found that only one-tenth of them gave employees full access to such networks during the day, and that many were blocking Facebook and Twitter altogether. The executives’ biggest concern was that social networking would lead to social notworking, with employees using the sites to chat with friends instead of doing their jobs. Some bosses also fretted that the sites would be used to leak sensitive corporate information.
According to paragraph 2, the benefits of online social networking in the office are

Manejo irregular de fondos y escándalo por cohecho. 
El ex gobernador de Corrientes, Raúl “Tato” Romero Feris, fue condenado a cinco años de prisión e inhabilitación perpetua para ejercer cargos públicos. Es porque la Justicia lo encontró responsable del delito de peculado durante su gestión como intendente. La misma pena recibió el ex secretario de Economía de la Municipalidad de Corrientes, Andrés Zidianakis. La denuncia, realizada en su momento por un interventor municipal, estaba basada en el cobro en 1997 de 400 mil pesos que estaban destinados a pavimentar calles, pero las obras nunca se realizaron y el dinero se esfumó, aunque Zidianakis aseguró en el juicio que personalmente y en efectivo se lo entregó en propias manos a Romero Feris.
La querella y la fiscalía habían solicitado siete años de prisión para el ex hombre fuerte de Corrientes y seis para el ex secretario de Economía. Fueron condenados además a devolver de manera solidaria los 400 mil pesos a la comuna.
Por otro lado, la causa por las coimas en el Senado para lograr la sanción de la ley de Reforma Laboral en abril del 2000 recibió ayer un impulso importante cuando la Cámara Federal porteña confirmó los procesamientos por cohecho del ex secretario de Inteligencia Fernando de Santibañes, del ex ministro de Trabajo Alberto Flamarique, del arrepentido Mario Pontaquarto, del ex presidente provisional del Senado José Genoud (UCR) y de los ex senadores peronistas Emilio Cantarero, Alberto Tell, Remo Costanzo, Augusto Alasino y Ricardo Branda.
Los camaristas Martín Irurzun y Horacio Vigliani desplegaron numerosas y fuertes críticas contra la investigación. Dieron por acreditada la existencia de las coimas, que —concluyeron— pagaron funcionarios de la Alianza y recibieron senadores justicialistas y radicales. Sin embargo, consideraron que no hay pruebas suficientes como para establecer que ese dinero salió de la Secretaría de Inteligencia.

The world of tomorrow is not a world based on a supra- structure of nation-states. It is a world where business is a major shaper not only of economic developments but also of social developments; it is also a world where civil society feels deeply engaged. The only way to foster progress is to knit together the best minds, the most powerful leaders and the truly committed people to jointly define the problems, jointly propose innovative solutions and jointly engage in collaborative actions.

In a new form of global governance, multi-stakeholder networks, public-private partnerships and informal alliances of different actors will be the norm rather than the exception. The legitimacy of those platforms will depend less on a traditional “representative” process and much more on ongoing public acceptance and measurable gains.

Business has to play a very special role in such networks, as the generator of innovation. Of course, business has the primary motive of generating shareholder value, but it also has a great function as a social agent. Business is duty-bound to serve humankind by engaging with the other stakeholders of global society to address its challenges creatively and in a spirit of corporate global citizenship

Many forces affect the price, availability and security of the insurance product. Some are external, such as changes in interest rates and the stock market, regulatory activity, the number and severity of natural disasters, growth in litigation and rising medical costs. Others are internal, such as the level of competition

The insurance industry is cyclical. Rates and profits fluctuate depending on the phase of the cycle, particularly in commercial coverages. The profitability cycle may be somewhat different for different types of insurance. While the industy as a whole experienced one of its best years in recent history in 2004 and in the first half of 2005, losses associated with Hurricane Katrina, Rita and Wilma may wipe out the profits of many insurers and force some to raise additional capital. None of the major companies are likely to become insolvent, however.

The regulation of insurance company solvency is a function of the state. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, which allowed banks, securities firms, insurance companies and other financial services entities to affiliate and sell one another’s products, continues this practice. State regulators monitor the financial health of companies licensed to provide insurance in their state through analysis of the detailed annual fi nancial statements that insurers are required to file and periodic on-site examinations. When a company is found to be in poor financial condition, regulators can take various actions to try to save it. Insolvencies do occur, however, despite the best efforts of regulators.
