Current affairs briefing for 22nd July, 2007

Hi friends,

 Because of a very tight schedule -- personally and officially -- I couldn't keep up with our favourite hobby for the last couple of days.

Here we go for today:

In today's briefing:

1.  The quiz is back on rails.

2.  If you were asked to say something about how should our country face the climate change challenge, what would you say?  Can you think of some points?  I have given a pointer to an excellent debate that appeared in ET.  I noted from this something for our notes.

3.  Many a time, many of you have asked me to define 'transfer pricing'.  I did answer you all those times.  Because it is an important concept, whenever I come across the same definition again and again, I note it again and AGAIN for driving the concept down your minds.  Take a look at the definition once again today.

4.  It is not unusual to note about tallest people.  We have our own Vikas aka Vicky who at 8 ft 9 inches is the tallest Indian.  But how about a tallest horse in the world? 

5.  Kodaikanal is reputed to have been established by American missionaries in 1845.  Is Nainital also having a similar story?

6.  Ever heard of Death bonds?  Let's learn something about them today.

7.  What is viaticals business about?

8.  A repeat of the definition of securitization.

9.  What is CIBIL?  What does it do?  Who is its Chairman?

10.  A bit about Beach volleyball.

That's all for today folks.  Enjoy.

Ramakrishna
