Useful questions might address subjects such as: No single reply establishes a militant Islamic disposition (plenty of non-Muslim Europeans believe the Bush administration itself carried out the September 11 terrorist attacks); and pretence is always a possibility, but these questions offer a good start to the vexing issue of separating enemies from friends.

Damage Control
Is the president ferreting out the truth about intelligence shortcomings? Or is he merely protecting himself? Take a guess. By Laura Rozen
Web Exclusive: 2.9.04
Print Friendly Email Article President Bush's decision to create an independent commission to investigate what went wrong with U.S. intelligence on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction (or lack thereof) is literally too little, too late, according to intelligence and proliferation experts. The commission was handpicked by White House officials and vetted by the vice president, whose alleged mishandling and manipulation of intelligence should be the subject of investigation, some experts say. In addition, the commission's Republican co-chairman, Laurence Silberman, was one of two judges who reversed Iran-Contra figure Oliver North's conviction on charges of obstructing Congress and unlawfully destroying government documents. In addition, none of the seven members on the commission has experience on proliferation issues. And only one, former deputy of central intelligence and Admiral William Studeman, has a background in professional intelligence. (Former Virginia Senator Charles Robb sat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Silberman was a member of the Defense Policy Board.)

FERRETING OUT WORKERS' COMP FRAUD
Do you suspect that one of your employees is milking a supposedly work-related injury for all it's worth? There are many ways to identify possible workers' compensation fraud, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, which is prosecuting employees for this transgression in record numbers this year. The NICB, funded by insurers, works with police departments to investigate property-casualty insurance fraud. Consider it a red flag if the injured worker: Reports that the accident occurred in the early morning, especially on a Monday. It may be a sports-related or weekend injury claimed as having happened at work. Says the injury occurred in an area where he or she wouldn't normally be (especially if it's a high-risk area), or if no one witnessed the accident. Is facing financial pressures or anticipates disruption in pay due to an impending strike or looming layoffs. Has a history of short-term employment or lied on the original job application. Changes doctors several times while undergoing treatment for the injury.

Several are large software vendors that have concentrated on larger customers and on consultants attached to major data warehouse vendors such as IBM and Oracle. Out of the box, the packages we reviewed tend not to have the full analytical capacity of much higher-end products. The large-customer vendors, however, are beginning to look downward. These include SAP (www.sap.com), perhaps the best-known business-intelligence vendor worldwide, which is now attracting smaller customers with its mySAP line; SAS (www.sas.com), which has been marketing Base SAS to end users along with many task-specific solutions such as customer relations management; and SPSS (www.spss.com), which offers SPSS Base, also with many task-specific solutions.

Sitemap Ferreting out a treatment 2-adrenoceptor agonist, can also act as selective but potent 3-adrenoceptor agonists that could potentially be developed as new drugs for treating incontinence. Urinary incontinence is common in many disease states and is found among women after childbirth and in the elderly. Voluntary control of either the detrusor, the muscle of the bladder wall, or the urethral sphincter is lost, leading to the often embarrassing and unpleasant condition. Increased urination frequency is a common side effect of prostate problems and certain antihypertensives. The National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Advisory Board (Bethesda, MD) estimates that 13 million people in the United States suffer from urinary incontinence, resulting in an annual direct cost of several billion dollars. Although many centers are investigating medical solutions to bladder dysfunction, muscle instability, reduced bladder-sphincter coordination, and absent and exaggerated reflexes, current drugs have little effect or undesirable side effects. Recently, however, Nobuyuki Tanaka and colleagues at Kissei Pharmaceuticals in Nagano (Japan) developed a novel assay based on an isolated ferret detrusor to estimate agonistic activity of several ritodrine derivatives (

Ferreting Out Tunneling: An Application to Indian Business Groups
Marianne Bertrand , Paras Mehta, Sendhil Mullainathan NBER Working Paper No. w7952
Issued in October 2000 Abstract -
In many countries, controlling shareholders are accused of tunneling, transferring resources from companies where they have few cash flow rights to ones where they have more cash flow rights. Quantifying the extent of such tunneling, however, has proven difficult because of its illicit nature. This paper develops a general empirical technique for quantifying tunneling. We use the responses of different firms to performance shocks to map out the flow of resources within a group of firms and to quantify the extent to which the marginal dollar is tunneled. We apply our technique to data on Indian business groups. The results suggest a significant amount of tunneling between firms in these groups. Would you like to subscribe to NBER Working Papers?

73. Ferreting Out Disguised Bombs Latest In School Officials' Duties
ferreting out disguised bombs latest in school officials duties. Thursday, June 24, 1999. By Michael Logan, PostGazette Staff Writer.
http://www.post-gazette.com/regionstate/19990624safe5.asp
Ferreting out disguised bombs latest in school officials' duties Thursday, June 24, 1999 By Michael Logan, Post-Gazette Staff Writer Principal Michael Panza knew something was amiss. A videocassette tape labeled "Whiplash" could have been a driver's education video, but the strange and sinister sounding title seemed out of place on a librarian's desk at Springdale Junior-Senior High School. His hunch proved correct. "Whiplash" was a bomb, rigged to detonate when moved or picked up. The device was one of five planted by Sgt. Robert Clark, director of the Allegheny County police bomb squad. Clark's goal: Educate the educators about explosives in a one-day school safety seminar at Springdale yesterday. The lesson comes at a time when many are concerned about school violence and possible repeats of the killings at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo. "Our schools are becoming battlegrounds," Clark told the group of 40. "On those battlegrounds, you as educators are the front lines." Clark said teachers and administrators are best able to identify bombs, as they are the ones most likely to know when something is out of place in the school environment. He said educators must be constantly on the lookout for explosives, not just when a bomb threat is called in.

Ferreting Out Family Day Care In Noe Valley
By Alison Pence My son, now 14 months, is interested in socializing. So, even though I knew it would be hard to leave him in the hands of another, this fall I began a search for licensed family day care within walking distance of my Noe Valley home. What is family day care? It's the care of children by a person in her or his home. To be licensed by the state, family day care providers must pass a background check and be certified in first-aid and CPR. They also must follow strict rules on the number and ages of children they take care of. In my case, I was looking for homes that would take kids under 2 years old. My first step was contacting the Children's Council of San Francisco, a nonprofit advocacy group founded in Noe Valley more than 25 years ago. The Children's Council operates a free referral service at 243-0111, and will match your zip code to its listings and give you the numbers of licensed providers over the phone. The group also has a resource room at 2601 Mission St. (Suite 600), where you can go for information. Hours are 9 to 4, Monday through Thursday (but please call ahead for an appointment). In addition, the Children's Council gives free workshops on "Choosing Child Care." The workshops call to preregister take place on the second Tuesday of the month at the Council's downtown office, 575 Sutter St.

Abstract

Owners of business groups are often accused of expropriating minority shareholders by tunneling resources from firms where they have low cash flow rights to firms where they have high cash flow rights. In this paper we propose a general methodology to measure the extent of tunneling activities. The methodology rests on isolating and then testing the distinctive implications of the tunneling hypothesis for the propagation of earnings shocks across firms within a group. When we apply our methodology to data on Indian business groups, we find a significant amount of tunneling, much of it occurring via nonoperating components of profit. © 2001 the President and Fellows of Harvard College and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Download Info To download: If you experience problems downloading a file, check if you have the proper

http://www.irishfieldsports.com/ferreting/
Irish Field Sports Home Page Ferrets - A Brief History T he domesticated ferret now used in Ireland is descended from the European polecat. It has been used as a working animal here for a number of centuries, with its main function historically being the control of pest species such as rats and rabbits. It is thought that the Romans introduced rabbits to Britain, perhaps to supplement their rations. The probability of a domesticated polecat being used to hunt rabbit burrows shortly after that time is highly likely. In North Africa there are records of a ferret like animal being used to hunt rabbits circa 60 BC So the ferret, whilst a newcomer to the British Isles, is a very old working animal. The art of ferreting in Ireland is something that is handed down from generation to generation. Many Irish sportsmen and women owe their introduction to field and country sports to that first ferret that was given to them as a boy or girl. Rabbits - The Main Quarry Rabbits are undoubtedly the main quarry of the Irish ferreter and, indeed, have been for as long as memories go back. During the years between the First and Second World Wars, most country boys owned a ferret or two and supplemented the family income by netting rabbits for the local butcher. Land laws in Ireland were never been as draconian as on the British mainland, so the farmer or estate owner loosing a few rabbits a week to a local lad was not a major issue. The 1950s brought myxomatosis and ended for a generation of sportsmen, the traditional field sport of ferreting. Happily the rabbit population in Ireland has recovered, although not to the extent of those inter-war years. Today, ferreting is a very popular field sport, be it shooting rabbits bolting from their warrens after the introduction of a ferret, or netting for re-distribution or for the pot.
