DID GEORGE SOROS CAUSE MARKET CRASH? | Weekly World News

NEW YORK ? There?s speculation that George Soros placed heavy bets against the U.S.? causing the market crash.

Rumors are swirling that George Soros, 80, reportedly made a bet of almost $1billion at odds of 100/1 last month that the U.S. would lose its AAA credit rating.

It appears that Soros, famously known as ?the man who broke the Bank of England?, may now have decided to try to break the U.S. stock market.

Questions are being asked of whether Soros had inside information before placing the $850million bet in the futures market.

There have been persistent rumors for the last two decades that Soros has manipulated currencies to increase his staggering wealth.

He made more than $1billion on currency speculation when the British pound left the Exchange Rate Mechanism on Black Wednesday in 1992.

The latest Soros bet was made on July 21 on trades of 50,370 ten-year Treasury futures and 30,100 Treasury bond futures.

The investor?s gamble seems to have paid off after Standard and Poor?s issued a credit rating downgrade from AAA to AA+ last Friday.

Soros stands to earn a 100,000 per cent return on their money, with the expectation that interest rates will be going up after the downgrade.

He stands to make a profit of $100 billion on the downgrade.

Sources close to people who know Soros say he plans to donate at least $1 billion of it to the re-election campaign of Barack Obama.?? And $1 billion will be spent on attempting to buy Fox News.? And if he can?t buy Fox News, he intends to spend $5 billion pursuing legal actions against Fox News.

There are also rumors that Soros may buy a few of the United States (by bailing them out).? Soros has his eyes on Rhode Island first, then Illinois and he hopes he can buy the State of California (which already has bids from the Chinese) by the end of the year.

Soros is also looking at buying? Great Britain.

At 80, he still dreams big.

A new National Day for me ? Yee Jenn Jong

National day has always been a reminder of how old I am. I was born in the year of our independence, though not on the same date. I am as old as modern Singapore. The celebrations will splash the age of our nation which is now reminder to me that my age is adding up.

My parents came from Malaysia to find work in Singapore even before Singapore achieved?self-independence. They met at Teachers Training College (now NIE), got married and settled down to work and raise a family here. When I was young, I moved frequently and freely between Singapore and Malaysia. I spent my first 2 years with my grandparents in a sleepy town called Gopeng just south of Ipoh. Sometimes, I visited my maternal grandparents in Muar, famous for durians, otah and fried oysters.

My life is in?a way?a reflection of the development of Singapore. Life was simple. Kampong Chai Chee?was just behind my home at Opera Estate. It was really a kampong back then. There were pig farms and vegetable farms. I remember pig farmers collecting waste from our backyard for pig feed and giving us gifts of eggs during festive occasions. The farms must have been removed when I was young. When I started?primary school, I remember frequenting Chai Chee library and the bus?interchange, both of which were later moved to Bedok.

The early national day celebrations I could recall were those with lots of marching. The shows with smart uniformed men, guns, tanks and airplanes were reminders in the volatile environment at that time that Singapore was not to be messed around with. National day was holiday time from school.?Celebrations in school were simple. I don?t recall getting mementos from schools for celebrations. We watched the parade from our small black and white television set. Some years, when the parade went into the streets, I would go and watch on the streets. In later years, fireworks were added and that was the highlight of each show.

In?secondary school, I joined the St John?s Ambulance Brigade. One year, I took part in the parade and we marched through the streets of eastern Singapore. It was a proud moment, marching through the streets with many watchful eyes, including those of my parents as our contingent went past the back of my own home. There were no frills at these parades. We put in lots of practice in marching and the parade was all about marching. There were no shows and fancy performances.

When I grew older, I paid more attention to the National Day rallies. The rally that had the strongest impression on me was in 1983, when then-PM Lee Kuan Yew spoke about the graduate mothers? scheme.?We had gathered to play board games at a college classmate?s house while watching the live telecast of the rally. Our reactions were unanimous. Even as 18-year olds, we were surprised at?what the PM had said. It sounded so?wrong.

I served my national service and helped at one of the parades. When I started work, I became more interested in the Prime Minister?s rally speeches than in the parades, though I would still watch the parades each year from the live telecasts. I would not miss the rally speeches. I had begun to travel more frequently and was?becoming more politically and socially aware.?I began to write in to the forum pages of newspapers, initially once every few years and later more frequently. It felt good to see the letters published though sometimes frustrating to see it edited beyond my recognition.

The parades became more interesting again when I had children and they attended rehearsals which all children must at primary 5. The goody bags became nicer each year. I was unlucky in all my balloting for tickets for the parades but I did once win 4 tickets through a radio quiz and our family attended a parade at the now-demolished national stadium. It felt good celebrating with my family even though we had to brave crazy traffic and huge crowds. This is their country and it is good to make my children feel proud to be Singaporeans.

This year, national day will have a surreal feeling. I will no longer be watching on TV or in some corner amongst the crowd. I had not envisage that one day I would?be active in politics, even though I had been watching Singapore?s political developments with increasing interest over the years. GE2011 came?and I became a Non-Constituency Member of Parliament on my first attempt. I will be with the policymakers of our country that I had watched from afar since young. I will be sitting in the same area as former PM Lee Kuan Yew, whom I had watched as a kid growing up. Even more so than in previous years, I will be listening intensely to the Prime Minister?s rally speech. This time, it will be in the auditorium and?not from a television set.

Presidential hopeful, Dr Tony Tan has said that Singapore?s politics has entered a new normal, a strong party in government matched by an effective opposition. Parliament will sit again on 10 October. We will see how this ?new normal? will shape up. It is a progression no one can fully predict but all parties must play their roles in.

For me, national day will not be the same again. I remain proud of my country, even more so now donning the colours of WP blue, and ever mindful of my role in the new normal that our country has arrived at.

Happy 46th National Day, Singapore.

Ezine Marketing Tips | Articles Studio

Web professionals know that marketing an online business is no easy chore. It takes time, and a very good knowledge of advertising. Spam emails are something that a good online advertiser will stay clear of. Spam doesn?t bring any good thing to a business. In fact spamming will most probably get people annoyed, get your business a bad reputation or black-listed. I know just like everybody else that getting your links into possible customer?s emails is something that can really help your online business. But you don?t have to spam to do this. Publish an ezine, which is an electronic newsletter that you send via email.

If you work from home on line and you have your own internet business then you should know that your own ezine can bring you the promotional benefits of email marketing but without having to deal with the problems that come with spamming. By writing and sending your ezine you constantly remind possible and old customers of your internet business. By doing this you also increase your respectability.

As you see an ezine can bring you a lot of benefits, plus starting to publish one is really easy.

Like everything else when you start your ezine you have to know what you are going to write about, so the first thing to do is pick out a subject. It can be news of different activities or sport etc. It all depends on the kind of online business you own. If your website sells tuning parts for cars it is obvious that you will choose a subject that relates to that, such as car racing or something like that.

Now you need to incorporate an opt-in option on your website. This can be placed wherever you like but it has to be somewhere visible and have something of a ?in-your-face? attitude. For example if people register on your site or buy something you could put the opt-in option on the registration page. Also you can place it on your homepage or on integral part of every page of your website like a header or sidebar. You don?t need to create a separate page only for this because you only need your visitor?s emails.

Now all you need is to start writing the actual ezine. If you plan on writing along then you should know that it is very time consuming and the best thing would be to get a part of the articles from a third party. There are online repositories that grant you free access to articles. You don?t need to have a lot of articles on your ezine per issue. Just remember to include news about your business and a link back to your website.

If you master ezine publishing you will be able to market and promote your website in a very efficient and honest way.
