Today, a short science video from NPR contributor Robert Krulwich (of RadioLab fame), animated by Benjamin Arthur. Krulwich describes a series of experiments in which blindfolded people are asked to walk (or drive) in a straight line -- and then maps are made showing the routes they walk instead. It's certainly a curious effect, and I recall hearing something like this in the context of lost-in-the-woods survival as well -- there's that old notion about just staying where you are rather than striking...

When you're used to seeing only buttons and portabella mushrooms, the fungi family may start to seem rather boring—though still delicious. This great Oddee article shows that in the wild though, mushrooms and other fungi grow in all shapes and sizes. Just look at the bioluminescent Mycena chlorophos. These mushrooms, native to forests in Japan and Brazil, make the average forest floor look like a scene from Avatar. Even the spores glow, so leaves, dirt and tree trunks have all been known to take on an... READ ON

Google is holding a science fair online! If you're from 13-18 years old, and work either alone or in a team or two or three, you can enter. The prizes include scholarships, visits to major research institutions, Scientific American subscriptions, and LEGO products. The deadline is in April of this year, and I'm sure we'll see some doozies -- but none can compare to my elementary school masterwork of May 1987: "How Soil Affects Growth" shown below. (I did not win. You might argue that my attitude was... READ ON
From the "I Didn't Know They Could Put a Computer in That" department, apparently the Livescribe Echo™ Smartpen is a pen computer that runs software. No, it's not a tablet -- it's a computer inside a pen. Out of the box, the pen has handwriting/drawing recording, audio recording, a built-in display with clock, a speaker, and various apps. The thing even has an App Store. Um. So yeah, now your pen can be smart too. In my day, it was pretty sweet if your pen had a decent grip and a way to change... READ ON
In 1965, Command Pilot Gus Grissom and Pilot John Young successfully piloted the Gemini 3 spacecraft on a four-hour and forty-three-minute mission into Earth's orbit, completed a handful of tests of the craft's capabilities and returned safely to solid ground. Afterwards, their actions during the mission were the subject of a Congressional House Subcommittee hearing and both Congress and the NASA brass gave Young strongly worded reprimands. What went wrong? It all starts with snacks. Tubes and... READ ON
In December, I asked whether y'all could handle more Carl Sagan remixes. The overwhelming answer was YES, so today I bring you "NASA - The Frontier is Everywhere," a promotional social media video created for NASA, but not by NASA, featuring Carl Sagan's famous "Pale Blue Dot" narration. The video was made by Reid Gower, who was frustrated by NASA's bad PR and thought he'd go ahead and promote the agency by himself. Here's what Gower wrote: I got frustrated with NASA and made this video. NASA is... READ ON
Hans Rosling is best known for his visualization of statistics data: he makes engaging animated displays that show how statistics (like AIDS rates, economic data, and even census data) change over time. By animating the data, Rosling helps laypeople understand what the statistics mean over time, and how to draw meaningful comparisons between data points. Last month, fellow blogger Ransom posted a short clip from Rosling's documentary The Joy of Stats, an engaging hour-long look at Rosling's work, and an... READ ON
Snowflakes' shape and size are influenced by the conditions in which they're formed – temperature, air currents, humidity, etc. But except in rare occurrences, they will always be six-sided.

In 1955, a French electrician named André Cassagnes got an idea for a new toy after seeing how an electrostatic charge could hold aluminum powder to glass. He worked up a prototype for the toy—based on the design of a television screen—in his basement workshop and called it "L'Ecran Magique," or "the magic screen." Its joystick, glass and aluminum powder allowed users to draw and erase images and letters with no ink and no mess. Cassagnes sought a patent, put couldn't pull the money together... READ ON

US buyout firm comes shopping for a stake in Sir Philip Green's Topshop empire
Sir Philip Green in talks to sell a quarter of the high street fashion chain in deal worth £250m
Sir Philip Green is in late-stage talks about the sale of a 25 per cent stake in his Topman and Topshop empire, a deal that could see him net £250m.
The retail entrepreneur hopes to sign a deal with the US private equity house Leonard Green & Partners as soon as this week. Retail sources say confirmation could come on Thursday.
While Sir Philip himself declined comment, analysts put the value of the empire at around £1bn. The cash injection in return for a sale of the chunk of the company would enable Sir Philip to quickly expand a business in which he has invested huge amounts of time, money and faith.
He has already taken Topshop to New York, Chicago and Las Vegas, and believes there is a huge market for its wares. It has become possibly the best-known fashion house in Britain in the recent years, raising its profile with sell-out collections by the supermodel Kate Moss and the designer Celia Birtwhistle.
Earlier this year, he struck a deal with Nordstrom, the New York-listed department store chain, to sell Topshop and Topman-branded clothing in up to 100 outlets.
LGP has a track record in the fashion trade as part owners of the US chain J Crew, a clothes company of which the US first lady, Michelle Obama, is a high-profile fan. Founded in 1989, LGP is one of the biggest private equity houses in Los Angeles. It has also taken stakes in Rite Aid and Whole Foods Market, among many other investments.
If Sir Philip pulls the deal off – the indications last night were that he would – it would make him one of the few UK business people who can truly claim to have cracked America.
Other retailers have struggled in the US, with even the mighty Tesco now battling to make its Fresh & Easy format work amid pressure from shareholders to cut losses and concentrate on its home market.
Topshop is presently part of Sir Philip's Arcadia empire, which includes Dorothy Perkins and Miss Selfridge.
Although the structure of this deal is not yet clear, it seems likely that the other parts of the business will be ring-fenced from Topshop. Sir Philip is expected to tell staff that he remains firmly committed to the other brands which are not part of this deal.
Sir Philip and his wife, Tina, are one of the wealthiest couples in the world, with a fortune estimated at £4bn.
Sir Philip famously tried and failed to take over Marks & Spencer in 2004, a bid that was resisted by the board of the company.
The spectacular deal to sell a stake in Topshop will be Sir Philip's most significant business transaction since he failed with his second attempt to buy Marks & Spencer eight years ago.
A larger-than-life figure, Sir Philip has been the focus of campaigners complaining about the tax arrangements of the rich.
Two years ago campaigners staged a sit-in at Sir Philip's flagship Topshop store in Oxford Street, and in Brighton a few demonstrators glued themselves to the branch windows, while other high streets in towns and cities across Britain saw similar protests in a day of action against the tax arrangements of rich individuals and big businesses.
Although he and Tina are based in Monaco, he points out that Arcadia has paid more than £2bn in tax since he acquired the business, including £591m in corporation tax.
Unveiling Arcadia's annual results last month, Sir Philip said profit before exceptional items rose from £133.1m to £166.9m in the year to 25 August.
Sir Philip is a prominent supporter of the Conservative Party, coming out in support of David Cameron and George Osborne just before the last General Election.
On behalf of the new Government, he carried out a so-called Efficiency Review into whether government spending and procurement could be better value for money.
Sir Philip is a big football fan with links to Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.

PlayTennis.com to Re-Launch in 2012
In a major initiative to create one central information gateway to attract more players and build future frequent players, tennis industry partners will be re-launching PlayTennis.com in 2012. PlayTennis.com will be the "hub" of information and opportunities for consumers to easily get on the pathway to becoming a frequent player.
PlayTennis.com is a simple call to action for everything tennis. It will be a "brand agnostic" site and messaging tool that all industry members should use in their own marketing and advertising to support the growth of the game.
"PlayTennis.com will not only become the consumer site for all things tennis, but should become a brand mark in the industry," says TIA President Jon Muir. "When people want to know where they can join a program or find a partner, or anything about getting in the game, as an industry we should all direct them to the simple and easy to remember URL, PlayTennis.com."
The USTA made a major commitment toward resources for the shared plans for PlayTennis.com, then a steering committee was formed from representatives from various segments of the industry to work with the USTA to guide and support the project. "The website is being developed as a non-endemic consumer portal by the USTA, TIA , and other industry partners," de Boer notes. PlayTennis.com logo creative and web banners should be available by the first quarter of 2012.
Tennis providers should visit PlayTennis.com now to make sure their information is up to date for the re-launch. Teaching pros, club owners, tennis facilities, retailers/pro shops, and other industry contacts all should update their free listings and publish their programs on the site, so players and consumers can easily find them. Stores, facilities, companies and others in the industry are also asked to promote the website on equipment hang tags, in messaging to consumers/members, and in advertising and media.
PlayTennis.com will be designed to be a "grand central station" of information for consumers to easily get on the pathway to becoming a frequent player. The site will:
- Provide a comprehensive database of facilities, programs, retailers, teaching pros and other user-friendly information and resources so consumers can find local programs and opportunities to play tennis.
- Provide tools for existing players to increase their total play occasions.
- Be a neutral-branded site so everyone in the tennis industry can equally provide awareness and ongoing support.

Global-Tech Advanced Innovations Reports First Quarter Results For Fiscal 2011
Global-Tech Advanced Innovations Inc. (NASDAQ:GAI) today announced its net sales and earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2011).
Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 were $25.8 million, compared to $25.7 million for the corresponding quarter in fiscal 2010. While there was less than a 1% increase in net sales, first quarter results revealed significant changes in sales trends when compared to the prior fiscal year. In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, net sales of home appliances declined 19%, electronic components increased 19% and electronic manufacturing service (EMS) revenues more than doubled, compared to corresponding net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. In addition, sales to Asia markets in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 represented 48% of total net sales.
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $0.8 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to a net income of $1.2 million, or $0.38 per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
John C.K. Sham, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our financial results in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were indicative of the changes taking place within our business segments. While our electronic component and EMS businesses resumed their growth and maintained profitability, operating margins in our home appliance business continued to decline as a result of increases in material cost and wage inflation. The trend of increasing raw material cost and decreasing margins are threatening the continued viability of our home appliance business."
Mr. Sham continued, "As we continue to diversify and refocus our efforts on the telecommunications business in China, weakening of the export markets we have been serving is having less of an impact on our overall business prospects. We plan to place less emphasis on our home appliance business as we continue to expand our capabilities and sales efforts on the EMS and electronic component businesses."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Tonix Pharmaceuticals Reports Fourth Quarter And Full Year 2013 Financial Results
NEW YORK, March 31, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:TNXP) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2013.
"In the fourth quarter, Tonix continued to make steady progress in the BESTFIT trial of TNX-102 SL in fibromyalgia, and we began an open-label extension study of trial completers. As recruitment has proceeded ahead of our projections, we plan to stop enrollment at approximately 200 subjects, which is the upper end of the original sample size. We anticipate reporting top-line results of BESTFIT in the fourth quarter of this year," said Seth Lederman, M.D., president and chief executive officer of Tonix. "On March 26, 2014, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) held a public meeting on Patient-Focused Drug Development for fibromyalgia. FDA's decision to hold this meeting, and the robust patient response to it, further validate our belief that fibromyalgia is a significant and growing medical concern among the U.S. population."
Tonix raised more than $40 million in net proceeds in a secondary offering in January 2014 and has received approximately $5 million in proceeds from warrant exercises in 2014. "We expect our cash position will enable us to begin a clinical trial of TNX-102 SL in post-traumatic stress disorder in the third quarter. In addition, we plan to begin a clinical pharmacology study of TNX-201, which is under development to treat tension-type headache, in the fourth quarter," concluded Dr. Lederman.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results Tonix reported a net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.74 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to a net loss of $2.6 million, or $1.49 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Tonix reported a net loss of $10.9 million, or $3.37 per share, compared to a net loss of $9.5 million, or $5.58 per share, for the comparable period of 2012. At December 31, 2013, Tonix's cash totaled $8.2 million compared to $1.8 million at December 31, 2012.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Snow. Big flakes, little flakes, wet flakes, dry flakes – lots of flakes. Winters in northeast Montana can bring a little snow or a lot of snow or an outrageous, unbelievable amount of snow. Sometimes records of snowfall amount are broken – much to the despair of many.
One of my mother's favorite Christmas songs was "White Christmas." Of course, since Mom loved it, I did, too – and still do.
I was born and grew up in southeastern Iowa, where the snow is always wet and heavy, and sometimes in abundance. If you are into lifting weights to build muscle, you can easily do that shove...

The deal, which promises to be the richest individual athlete deal in history based on the present pay-per-view buy rate for Mayweather's events, marks the end of Floyd's lengthy relationship with HBO, which has broadcast his past 23 fights. The last time Mayweather fought on a network that wasn't HBO? A Feb. 17, 1999 victory over Carlos Rios on TNT.Aside from the seismic repercussions on boxing's domestic broadcast wars, Tuesday's announcement effectively marks the end of Mayweather's run on HBO's 24/7 docuseries, a franchise he often took credit for having launched and popularized. The network has produced 17 editions of 24/7 since it debuted with the run-up to Mayweather's 2007 megafight with Oscar De La Hoya, and Floyd has featured in six of them.Frequently, the Grand Rapids, Mich., native has provided some of the most colorful moments. Here are 10 of our favorite.1. Putting De La Hoya on blastSeries: De La Hoya vs. MayweatherQuote: You a p----. And I'm the top draw. You remember that. ... I'm gonna beat you till you respect me. I'm gonna beat you and I'm gonna make you call me pretty.The series debut was the only 24/7 where Mayweather settled for second billing -- but he stopped at nothing to steal every episode by relishing the heel role. His incessant trash talking helped make the show a crossover phenomenon. 2. Father and sonSeries: Mayweather vs. OrtizQuote: You couldn't fight worth s---, you wasn't nothing but a motherf---in' cab driver. Get the f--- out my gym!Floyd's complex relationship with his dad has been a storyline revisted throughout the boxer's run on the series, though it was never more explosive than when they nearly came to blows after a disagreement over female fighters during the build-up to Mayweather's fight with Victor Ortiz. 3. Money on the lineSeries: Mayweather vs. OrtizQuote: Yeah, I seen my daddy on 24/7. Yeah, he was hatin'.Perhaps the zenith of Mayweather's bromance with 50 Cent came when he "phoned" the rapper-turned-promoter, a stack-to-stack connection that quickly went viral.4. G.O.A.T.?Series: Mayweather vs. MosleyQuote: He said I'm better than Muhammad Ali. Yup, I'm better than Muhammad Ali. Sugar Ray Robinson? Yup, I'm better than Sugar Ray Robinson.No icon has proven too towering for a Mayweather takedown. 5. Easter rebellionSeries: Mayweather vs. CottoQuote: I don't f---ing understand Easter because rabbits don't lay eggs. You ain't never thought about that did you?Excuse me while I piece together fragments of my skull. 6. Trolling the U.K.Series: Mayweather vs. HattonQuote: They stick their middle finger up basically saying, 'F--- you,' so I stuck my middle finger back up and said, 'F--- ya'll.'Hatton is a massive Manchester City supporter -- his grandfather and father played for the club -- so naturally Mayweather turned up to the U.K. press conference for their 2007 fight wearing a Manchester United shirt.7. Juan "Pee Pee Mouth" MarquezSeries: Mayweather vs. MarquezQuote: Pee pee mouth, Marquez, that's who I'm fighting. Pee pee mouth.One of 24/7's most memorable moments featured Juan Manuel Marquez drinking his own urine while preparing for his fight with Mayweather.

Stayed in a single-bed ensuite room. Definitely good value. Room was clean and tidy, as you would expect from a hotel. Only problem was that whenever people walked on the room above mine, it would cause such a loud noise that it sounded like someone was knocking at my door. So bring earplugs. I guess it must be because my room was in a pretty odd location, like between floors. Wifi signal from my room was also weak (again, due to odd location). Didn't try the breakfast (so can't tell).

Posting Rules for Upcoming FA Feeding Frenzy
As the lockout is nearing its end, we will be coming up on a period of rapid-fire news reports regarding what is sure to be a FA feeding frenzy.
To keep the boards organized, I ask that you adhere to the following guidelines:
1. If the Rams sign a player (FA or rookie), you can post a thread announcing the news on the Ram Talk board. Please try to avoid posting duplicate threads on the same signing.
2. If there is a report (or even a credible rumor from a reliable source) about the Rams meeting with or offering a contract to a FA or rookie, you can post a thread regarding the report on the Draft & FA board. Again, please avoid posting multiple threads on the same player. Please also use this board for any threads (either original or from the media) regarding players the Rams should pursue.
3. If there is a report of a team other than the Rams signing a FA (even if its one the Rams were thought to be pursuing), you can post a thread announcing the report on the NFL Talk board.
Thanks!Last edited by AvengerRam; -07-19-2011 at 02:12 PM.

FTC begins antitrust investigation into Google Android, web services - Page 2

Then how come there isn't similar antitrust investigations against other competitors in the market, just Google? Perhaps, maybe, because, possibly, the FTC (and similar bodies) have good reason to believe Google is actually guilty? Or is it just a conspiracy by every other competitor, who would still be competing with each other without Google, to take just Google down?
Be sure to apprise us of the resolution of this perplexing conundrum.
It seems this site isn't just about Apple but Apple plus anything anti-Google (or Android). Well truthfully it's more like Apple + anything bad happening to competitors (of which mostly is Google these days).
We get it, Google Evil, don't need to be told this endlessly day after day after day after...
Getting rather tired of it.
Wish it would just go back to just informing us about Apple.
Surely you must have noticed a significant change in the tech environment. Apple is spending an inordinate amount of time and capital defending its IP. There is a heavy emphasis on litigation, patents etc. Since Google has acquired a leading role in all of this, it is natural to report on it.

Side note on places: There is some great stuff you can do as a business owners with places, and I know of more than a few local businesses who used it as a "landing page" of sorts until they got their own website up and running. One of the reasons for this was because of the massive amount of reviews it has. Not trying to make a judgement here about whether to aggregation was right or wrong. Just saying that there were benefits to it when it came to business owners as well as consumers.
What are you talking about?
That has been gamed by the SEO crowd to the point of uselessness, at least if you're a legitimate business:
First, Google has actually been accused of manipulating its search results so that competitors, such as Yelp, rank lower in results while Google promotes its own products, such as Google Places, which actually uses Yelp's content. While scraping Yelp's content is a copyright issue, pushing down Yelp in search results and ensuring Google Places ranks high is clearly legal trouble for Google Search. Second, Google Places is being monetized with Google's ad business, which is legal trouble there. Third, why would any company not want to index their website with Google Search? They want visitors to their website, so taking their website out of Google Search results would be shooting themselves in the foot. Perhaps you meant website owners could include code that would prevent the scraping of their content? If so, any such action would also result in a negative impact to their SEO and if Google really wanted the content they'd find a way to scrape it anyway.
It's all intertwined and related because they are favoring their own services in search, which monetize other people's IP. Meanwhile those people are not being paid for their content. "Don't be evil."
It's also important to note that Google Pulled yelp reviews from places:
So that point really isn't relevant anymore (though I'm sure the government will continue to harp on it)
Not relevant? OK, I'll come steal your car and park it in my garage. Then I'll tell the government I'm not going to steal any more cars from you so it's not relevant any more. Fair enough?
Google has a history of this - doing blatantly illegal things until they get caught. Then they stop and send out their army of shills to say "it was only an innocent mistake. They're not doing it any more".
If this was the first time it had happened, it would be one thing. But when it's clearly their entire business strategy and they apparently don't have the ethics of a starving raccoon, they don't deserve a break.

It's also important to note that Google Pulled yelp reviews from places:
Google pulled the Yelp reviews from Places after they got caught red-handed doing it.
Promising to refrain from illegal behavior in the future doesn't excuse the past behavior. It's just an attempt by Google's legal team to minimize the damages they'll have to fork out (no pun intended) for the copyright they already impinged upon.
Remember that the FTC is looking for patterns of behavior in any antitrust investigation. The Google response of "OK, you busted us, we'll stop (now that our competing service has a good foothold in the market)" isn't going to be a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Has anyone read the Terms of use for Google? Its scary stuff!
"When you upload or otherwise submit content to our Services, you give Google (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services, and to develop new ones."
In a nut shell; anything you upload to a google service or even gets indexed via Google can be used and/or altered by Google to make money without having to give you a single penny and there is no option to keep it private.
Yeah... I read this a while ago when studying software licensing in University. Since then I refuse to use Google; I'm surprised no one has touched upon this yet.
Compare that to Bing/Windows Live:
"Except for material that we license to you, we don't claim ownership of the content you provide on the service. Your content remains your content. We also don't control, verify, or endorse the content that you and others make available on the service.
You control who may access your content. If you share content in public areas of the service or in shared areas available to others you've chosen, then you agree that anyone you've shared content with may use that content. When you give others access to your content on the service, you grant them free, nonexclusive permission to use, reproduce, distribute, display, transmit, and communicate to the public the content solely in connection with the service and other products and services made available by Microsoft. If you don't want others to have those rights, don't use the service to share your content.
With Microsoft, anything you submit, private or public, will not be used by them to make money. The content will only be used by others if you share it with certain people or in public.
Its rare you see Microsoft be the more trustworthy people.
Is it copyrighted material? I mean in the case of Yelp the material was user supplied, so there may not be any copyright. Rather like this forum thread - who owns the copyright there? Does anybody?
I don't use Yelp, for all I know they have a big terms and conditions thing that new users agree to in which all copyright is given over to Yelp itself. Can anybody shed any light?
Its not the fact that they're taking it from Yelp, its the fact that it has no Yelp branding at all and no link back to Yelp.
Yelp made the site, supplied the service, and got a user response. Google then took the user response without giving credit to the originator. That is what is wrong here. See Google Terms of Use above.

... at night.
... at night.
I think you're over-dramatizing what Google Drive permissions actually grant them. TheVerge published an article concering that just a few days after the service rolled out:
Per Google "what belongs to you stays yours." You own your files and control their sharing, plain and simple. Our Terms of Service enable us to give you the services you want — so if you decide to share a document with someone, or open it on a different device, you can."
Looking at some of Google's competitors, it's clear that they need the exact same permissions — they just use slightly more artful language to communicate them.
I could probably agree with "Don't be Stupid".

Many investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) claims are by shareholders for so-called "reflective loss" incurred as a result of injury to "their" company. This paper (i) compares the wide acceptance of such claims in ISDS with their general prohibition in advanced systems of national corporate law; and (ii) analyses policy issues raised by such claims (e.g., risk of double recovery, high legal costs, injury to creditors, etc.).
This OECD report to the G20 sheds light on reforms by which governments in Southern Africa can manage and accelerate the shift towards greater private participation in infrastructure. It draws on lessons learned from investment policy reviews in countries from the Southern African Development Community.

This is a consolidated report covering investment measures taken between 15 February 2008 and 15 February 2013. The present report was prepared for the Freedom of Investment Roundtable 19 held on 15 October 2013.

Global investment activity fell by nearly a third in the second quarter of 2013, after two consecutive quarters of increases, according to preliminary estimates in the October 2013 issue of FDI in Figures.
This event aimed to highlight the complex transformation taking place in Myanmar and analyse the challenges that the country is addressing in order to achieve strong, sustainable growth. A technical panel analysed how the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises can contribute to this growth.
Deputy Minister of National Planning and Economic Development, Dr. Khin San Yee, presented her country's ambitious efforts to improve the investment climate at meetings of the OECD Investment Committee and Advisory Group on Investment and Development from 15-17 October 2013 in Paris.
English, PDF, 288kb
Organised in Paris on 14 October 2014, discussions at 21st Roundtable revolved around comments on the draft Policy Framework for Investment, an ongoing dialogue on 'investment treaties over time' with a particular focus on state to state dispute settlement, as well as future work on investment treaties and the regular discussion of recent investment policy developments.
This investment policy review examines Costa Rica's achievements in developing an open and transparent investment regime and its efforts to reduce restrictions on international investment.
Le Costa Rica est devenu aujourd'hui le quarante-cinquième pays à adhérer à l'instrument de l'OCDE relatif à l'investissement international, conçu pour attirer davantage d'investissements de meilleure qualité et encourager une conduite responsable des entreprises.
International investment is one of the main drivers of globalisation so sound policies towards investment are vital for world prosperity and stability, for maximising the benefits of the integration of emerging major non-OECD players into the global economy and for the development of poor countries.

Pit bulls have bad reputations.
Many large, powerful pit bulls have been bred and trained to be aggressive. Because of their reputation, some cities have banned them and dogs that look similar. The New York City Housing Authority has prohibited certain breeds on its properties. Some jurisdictions have laws that require that pit bulls be euthanized. Unfortunately, several dog breeds look similar to pit bulls, and they can lose their lives, too.
Argentine Dogo
- Argentine dogos, sometimes called Argentine mastiffs, have muscular bodies and broad heads. Their eyes may be any color, and the rims should be black or pink. Normally they have a thick white coat. The owner must display leadership with these powerful dogs. Easily trained, they will guard the home but are gentle with children. They may become aggressive with strange animals unless socialized early.
American Staffordshire Terrier
- The American Staffordshire terrier has a muscular body and a broad head. The eyes are dark and round. Although many have pink eyelids, that is considered a fault. This dog's thick coat may be of any color. Generally, they are larger than pit bulls, weighing up to 70 pounds. Breeders have developed the dogs to be good-natured and affectionate, and they are very good with children.
