| Aids Epidemic Should Be Classified As a Global Disaster | | 2008-07-30 05:09:00 | | The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRC) has warned the AIDS in some countries is so severe that it should be classified as a disaster. Moreover, the IFRC added, the crisis fits the UN definition of a disaster as an event beyond the scope of any single society to cope with.
The IFRC's annual report on world disasters usually focuses on specific natural disasters such as

| An epidemic called branding | | 2008-05-22 01:17:00 | | Marketer Santosh Desai on what makes Laloo Prasad Yadav a valuable brand...Right now there is a whole epidemic of what I would call pseudo brands, where everything suddenly becomes a brand. This has happened to an extent that it has even become fashionable to talk about every human being as a brand, every event as a brand, every television programme as a brand, every film as a brand. So there is in fact an epidemic of branding that is finally taking place. And while a lot of these things can be categorised as brands, what is important is to distinguish and understand what makes a brand. Something that is being advertised or being popularised or which is becoming a commercial product that was hitherto not seen as a commercial product, does not make it a brand. A celebrity does not become a brand simply because he or she gets some brand endorsements. Even though brands are commercially used, the notion of a brand has nothing to do with it. The idea of a brand is actually more about its c | | By: IIPM-World | | |

| | Terrorists and Credit Card Fraud
a Quiet Epidemic | | 2008-02-28 08:39:12 | | A few weeks ago while conducting research for a client; I came across a newspaper article from Toronto that immediately caught my attention. It reported the arrest of four men on charges of debit and credit card fraud for possessing numerous gift cards containing bank account and debit information from individuals in the United Kingdom (U.K.). Further investigation found laptop computers and memory sticks containing bank information for thousands of U.K. bank customers. What resonated was the fact...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |

| The Bad Guy Epidemic | | 2008-01-10 15:50:46 | | There has been a slowly emerging trend in fiction over the last fifteen years or so. Replacing the simple goodness of protagonists such as King Arthur and the simpleminded goodness of heroines such as Snow White, we have a growing contingent of more complicated, morally ambiguous characters taking center stage in our stories.

| | High School Dropout A Silent Epidemic - We Must Do Something (WMD'S #1) | | 2007-12-18 11:27:00 | | Every 29 seconds, another student gives up on school. This translates into more than 1 million American high school students every year. Nearly 33% of all public high school student and 50% of all black, Hispanic and Native American students fail to graduate from public high school with their class. Take a moment to forget about the question I have posted earlier, about whether our high school graduates will be able to compete in the global market in the 21st century. What about the one million students per year, who barely have a chance to compete here in the United States? What surprises me most about high school dropouts, is the major reason why they drop out. I naively believed that it was due mostly to personal reasons, such as helping support a family, pregnancy, or care for a family member. From a study sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, I learned that nearly 50% of all dropouts do so because their classes are not interesting. Furthermore 70% have said they were not motivated to work hard and 66% said they would have worked harder if more had been demanded of them. Only 1/3 of all students dropout because of family or personal situations.Our schools are failing our kids. As I read this study further it is unquestionably clear that dropping out is an act of last resort. A fair percentage of these students enter high school unprepared and are destined to fail. We all know “those” kids -- the one’s who struggled early on either academically, emotionally or socially. Teacher and peer expectations are lowered, kids become underachievers and before long it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. As unhappy as some of these kids may be in school, none of them look forward to the day when they are old enough to drop out. The study pointed out that dropping out is not a “sudden act, but a gradual process of disengagement”. In other words, there is time to intervene before that last act is committed.
