Apple beats Google in brand wars

May 9, 2011 - Measuring a brand's worth is an imprecise art. Apple has nevertheless been deemed the world's most valuable. At $153 billion, according to a new survey, it accounts for about half the company's market capitalisation and nearly 10 times its estimated value five years ago.

Tech companies also populate the top ranks. There are good reasons they dominate the list - and why they're prone to big swings in value.The survey, by a subsidiary of WPP, estimated the earnings resulting from big brands and attempted to put a multiple on them to account for future growth. The result is a tech-heavy list. Google, at $111 billion, ranks second, IBM is third and Microsoft fifth.

Thugocracy:

Thugs use intimidation. A liberal application of "Do this or I'll do that," as a means of forcing innocent people, the thugs see as sheep to be fleeced

Extortion, intimidation, and scams: these are the tactics of thugs. On the streets of Chicago there are neighborhoods where the police won’t enter after dark. Gangs of thugs rule the night protecting the neighborhood or engaging in what the police in other places quaintly call extortion, intimidation and other activities common to organized crime.

The difference between the cliquethat has captured power in the United States and an organized crime family lies more in the magnitude of their scams and the legalized cover which gives them impunity than any other standard. 

The generational theft and constitutional subversion that theObama administration and Congress commit on a daily basis is no more morally defensible than the shakedowns and extortions of a local street gang or other community organizers on the Southside of Chicago.

Thugs use intimidation. A liberal application of “Do this or I’ll do that,” as a means of forcing innocent people, seen merely as sheep to be fleeced, into doing what they want. The examples of the Obama Administration’s thuggishness abound and are as close as the headlines.

Japanese scientist creates radiation-absorbing powder

Japanese scientist creates radiation-absorbing powder

A Japanese university professor claims he has invented a radiation-absorbing powder which he believes will be useful at the disaster-hit Fukushima power plant.

­Tomihisa Ohta’s anti-radiation powder consists of a mixture of minerals including zeolite, which is said to capture radiation in water and absorb the isotopes of cesium, iodine and strontium.

The scientist said that experiments he has held with colleagues from Kumaken Kougyou Co, a chemistry company, showed that 1.5 grams dissolved in ten milligrams of water almost fully absorbs particles of caesium. The concentrate can also reportedly isolate radioactive particles of iodine and strontium from the water. Professor Ota believes that the discovery may be required at Fukushima-1 "to clear 67,000 tons of highly radioactive water accumulated in the station’s bottom rooms and tunnels.”
