1.let's really clean up those numbers----now

Little noticed in the shock of WorldCom Inc.'s massive accounting fraud is that it came to light only
after a review initiated by the company's audit committee. Yes, believe it or not, the directors in the
boardroom actually asked their auditors to take another look at the numbers.
Lo and behold, that review let to the largest single restatement ever: a $3.8 billion reduction in previously
reported pretax income. Together with Xerox Corp's recent concession that it overstated operating earnings by $1.4billion, these two corporate meaculpas alone nearly match the combined total hit of $5.8 billion from all 463 restatements in 1998,1999, and 2000.
How much worse can it get? Plenty. It's not that we'll likely see numbers as breathtaking as those as World Comor Xerox. But expect a tidal wave of restatements to come in what will surely amount to some sort of accounting chatharsis. If ever there was a time for companies to come clean, it's now. Over the years, the quality of financial reporting has varied widely. Some companies did the bare minimum to meet accounting standards. Others were more cautious. To get beyond the current stock market malaise, companies need to flush out the excesses so investors can regain their confidence in our financial system. It's better to take a hit now than risk dragging this out over the next few years.

2.Happy birthday, Milton Friedman

Milton Friedman's professional career has been marked by controversy over his many policy proposals. Yet as he approaches his 90th birthday, Friedman is increasingly recognized as the most influential economist in a 20th century that witnessed towering contributions from John Maynard Keynes, Paul A. Samuelson, and others.Friedman is best known for "monetarism", a view that stability in the growth of the money supply is crucial to controlling inflation and recessions. Although the relation between the money supply and the economy has often been highly variable, no less an authority than Fedral Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has indicated that Friedman's emphasis on a stable monetary framework was instrumental in guiding central banks in Europe and the U.S. toward low inflation during the pass two decades.
Before Friedman, economic conventional wisdom held that inflation reduces unemployment because prices rise faster than labor costs. In the late 1960s, Friedman argued instead that there is no permanent reduction in unemployment from continuing inflation because wages eventually catch up to prices as expectations about inflation become more accurate. His analysis has been validated twice since then----by the high U.S. the '90 even though inflation was negligible.
Two decades before Chile introduces its revolutionary private individual account retirement system, Friedman's classic 1962 book Capitalism and Freedom criticized the prevailing pay-as-you -go Social Security systems for restricting the ability of individuals to choose how much and in what form to save for retirement, and for mixing a welfare program for elderly poor with a compulsory program that applies to all the elderly. Has his advice been followed twenty years ago, there would be no impending Social Security financing crisis in the U.S. and other developed nations with aging population.

3. Are Force Majeure Clauses Exclusion Clauses?

In order to differentiate an exclusion or limitation clause from a force majeure clause we must first define
exactly what we mean by exclusion clauses and examine their effect on the contractual relations of the
parties. We might then usefully compare the operatiogogo to that of force majeure clauses.
A tripartite distinction betweegogo: " Protective conditions are three distinct types: first, those which limit or reduce what would otherwise be the defendant's duty; second, those which exclude the defendant's liability for breach of specified aspects of that duty, and third, those which limit the extent to which the defendant is bound to indemnify the plaintiff in respect of the consequences of breaches of that duty." The difference between the first two categories is said to be this: in the first case there is no breach of contract since there is no obligation to perform in the circumstances which have arisen, whilst in the second case there is a breach but the liability to pay damages in respect of it has been removed.
Force majeure clauses, it seems, go to limit the extent of the obligation assumed by the promisor. They do not operate so as to shield a promisor from liability for a breach of contract. A force majeure clause will ensure that non-performance is no breach because no performance was due in the circumstances that have occurred.
