Afghanistan’s Presidency: Setting the Scene for the 2009 Election
Mon, 28 Apr 2008 06:00:48 PDT

Several Afghans I spoke to in Kabul believe that the Taliban attack against a military parade on April 27 marked a turning point in public opinion against Karzai as he made the culturally unacceptable decision to flee the scene rather than lead his security for

The Next Fault Line in Foreign Policy Combat: "The U.S. Matters" vs. "No, It Really Doesn't"
Mon, 28 Apr 2008 06:13:07 PDT
Kishore Mahbubani and G. John Ikenberry may not know it -- but they are squaring off to be the new top tier rival powerhouse intellectual combatants. They each basically stand at the forefront of rival intellectual movements about the relative relevance of American power in the world -- Mahbubani heading the school that the West is in self-denial about its plummeting significance and Ikenberry heading those who think American power remains palpably larger than any other player and is still th
Defining Green Marketing
Mon, 28 Apr 2008 06:18:00 PDT
Defining Green Marketing The marketing of supposedly green products has been largely unrelated resulting in skeptical consumers. According to research from Burst Media, nearly a quarter of people surveyed never believe green claims, while nearly two-thirds "sometimes" believe the green hype. Burst Media, which recently launched a green ad network, says there is no measurable difference in interest in green products between men and women, in income, or age.

How to Explain Web Working to the Uninitiated
Mon, 28 Apr 2008 07:00:22 PDT
What do you do? This is probably one of the hardest questions to answer. Some people hold more than one job, others have a new way of working, while others still have job descriptions that didn’t exist 5 years ago. As a web worker, you’re probably at least one of the above. If you’re mingling with other web workers, answering “What do you do?” is easy. But if you ask your less web-savvy friends if they can explain your job back to you, you’ll find that they don’t get it. I’m a blogger, but
THERE WILL BE INFLATION?
Mon, 28 Apr 2008 07:01:15 PDT
The Federal Reserve's two-day FOMC confab begins tomorrow and the futures market's expecting a 25-basis-point cut in Fed funds to 2.0% at its conclusion on Wednesday. As a result, the chatter now is about whether this is the last one for this cycle. Leaning toward the view that this will be the end of the cutting is Peter Berezin, Goldman Sachs' global economist.
