Singapore. A Personal Note Personal Note I was born in 1957 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaya. I moved to the Netherlands in 1967. In 1980 I made a sentimental journey back to Malaya. In the cause of that journey I paid a visit to Singapore. I was amazed to see how Singapore had flourished. So I decided than and there that the essay I would write to finish my study at the Erasmus University in Rotterdam would be about this growth phenomena. Throughout the years there has been a continuous demand by for this book. So I decided to make it easily available for a larger public. So, here it is... Short Introduction To "Singapore. The Socio-Economic Development Of A City-State: 1960-1980" In the book (covering the period ) I have attempted to sketch the (economic) development in Singapore and how it came about. . Judged by the three primary components of underdevelopment mentioned in the introductory chapter, Singapore has succeeded in escaping from the clutch of underdevelopment. Health, education, social services and high per capita output without poverty and indebtedness have shown considerable improvement.

92. Charles Dow, The History Of The Dow Jones Averages, Dow Jones Averages Chronolog Information about how Charles Dow devised the now famous stock averages and a chronology of their activity from 1884 to 1995. http://www.cftech.com/BrainBank/FINANCE/DowJonesAvgsHist.html

Charles Dow, the History of the Dow Jones Averages, Dow Jones Averages Chronology 1884 - 1995 Chronology of the Dow Jones Averages Daily Movement of Averages January 1897 ] to [ October 1916 ] to [ November 1928 ] to [ December 1973 Chronology of the Dow's Climb to 10000 Charles Dow and the Creation of the Averages Neither financier nor broker Charles Dow was a journalist. The stock averages he devised provided a window for outsiders to view the market; Wall Street types were welcome to use it, but they were not his chief concern. When Dow came to Wall Street, the investment market of choice was bonds. Investors liked securities that were backed by real machinery, factories and other hard assets. They felt reassured by the predictability of income that bonds offered, as well as the specific dates of maturity when their principle would be returned. The stock market , by contrast, dealt in "shares of ownership'' which had no specific claim on anything a company owned. People on Wall Street found it difficult to analyze the daily jumble of up-a-quarter and down-an-eighth or whether stocks generally were rising, falling or staying even. Charles Dow devised his stock average to make sense of this confusion. He began in 1884 with 11 stocks, most of them railroads. Railroads were among the biggest and sturdiest companies in America at that time, which is why they dominated Dow's first average. Few stocks of industrial companies were publicly traded, and those were considered highly speculative.

96. Treasure And Prices In Spain 1505-1650 Provide statistics to test the idea that the price level is related to the inflow of treasure into the Spanish economy. http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/watkins/spgold.htm

applet-magic.com Thayer Watkins Silicon Valley USA Treasure and Prices in Spain 1505-1650 In the sixteenth century gold and silver poured into Spain from Mexico, Peru and the rest of the Spanish Empire. Prices rose. The observation of a probable connection between the inflow of treasure and the rise in prices was one of the first formulations of an economic theory, in this case The Crude Quantity Theory of Money. The statistics available allow one to test the idea that the price level is related to the amount of money in circulation. Only part of the data is available so there cannot be a definitive test of this theory. There are statistics on the import of treasure into Spain but not for the export of gold and silver. Also the extent of hoarding and the diversion of gold and silver into jewelery and decoration is unknown. The amount of money other than gold and silver is not known either. Nevertheless the statistics that are available allow a crude test of the crude quantity theory of money. Year Cumulative Import of Treasure Price Level Source: Earl J. Hamilton

Be part of the leaders by keeping informed on Box Interactive. It's Not About Me Joe Doucet Design director, Kirshenbaum Bond + Partners New York, New York I grew up in an environment where I was encouraged to be very creative. My mother was an artist. My father was a third-generation ironworker. He made things with his hands. So genetically, you could say I was predisposed to design, which is a combination of both. I never envisioned myself at an advertising agency. But I always wanted to make a good living creatively. I just wasn't sure how. The essence of what makes a truly great creative person is the ability to remove oneself from the process. You have to become the person for whom the work is being done. And what that means in terms of my work here is that it's never done for a client; it's done for the people the client is talking to. That removal of oneself is critical, not only to executing the work but also in explaining why a solution is right for the client. I'll give you an example from one of our accounts. Most people look at a Target ad and say it's just fashion. There's no concept to it or at least what the advertising world thinks of as a concept. But it's high fashion for a mass brand. Talk about concepts. That's a very big concept.
