| Gaming › Playstation 2 Component Incites African War by Raimond(op): 10:23am On Jul 25, 2008 |
[b]Console war reaches past the couch and into the Congo, claims report. By Ben Silverman Has the video game industry dug up its very own blood diamond? According to a report by activist site Toward Freedom, for the past decade the search for a rare metal necessary in the manufacturing of Sony's Playstation 2 game console has fueled a brutal conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo. At the center of the conflict is the unrefined metallic ore, coltan. After processing, coltan turns into a powder called tantalum, which is used extensively in a wealth of western electronic devices including cell phones, computers and, of course, game consoles. Allegedly, the demand for coltan prompted Rwandan military groups and western mining companies to plunder hundreds of millions of dollars worth of the rare metal, often by forcing prisoners-of-war and even children to work in the country's coltan mines. "Kids in Congo were being sent down mines to die so that kids in Europe and America could kill imaginary aliens in their living rooms," said Ex-British Parliament Member Oona King. So where's the connection to Sony? According to Toward Freedom, during the 2000 launch of the PS2, the electronics giant was having trouble meeting consumer demand. To pump out more units, Sony required a significant increase in the production of electric capacitors, which are primarily made with tantalum. This helped drive the world price of the powder from $49/pound to a whopping $275/pound, resulting in the frenzied scouring of the Congolese hills known for being ripe with coltan. Sony has since sworn off using tantalum acquired from the Congo, claiming that current builds of the PS2, PSP and PS3 consoles are sourced from a variety of mines in several different countries. But according to researcher David Barouski, they're hardly off the hook. "SONY's PlayStation 2 launch, was a big part of the huge increase in demand for coltan that began in early 1999," he explained. "SONY and other companies like it, have the benefit of plausible deniability, because the coltan ore trades hands so many times from when it is mined to when SONY gets a processed product, that a company often has no idea where the original coltan ore came from, and frankly don't care to know. But statistical analysis shows it to be nearly inconceivable that SONY made all its PlayStations without using Congolese coltan." Currently, the Playstation 2 is the best-selling video game console of all-time, having sold through over 140 million units.[/b] Source: http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/playstation-2-component-incites-african-war/1231745

The last time i checked, this thread was meant for Arsenal fans alone, but we have consented to arguing with haters/non-fans. Let`s return to status quo please, and talk about issues that bother us as a club.(all non-fans should simply be ignored). I read this thread everyday, but hardly contribute, because to me it looks like a battle ground of sorts. If we need to mudsling,let`s create a thread for club-beef and battle there,knowing that you are on your own. Let`s respect the sanctity of the gunners thread please!!! Arsenal for Life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| Business › Beware- New Strategy Of Scammers--A Must Read For All Please: ! by Raimond(op): 11:19am On Jul 18, 2008 |
[b] It's a long story, but it's a word for caution, I pray we never get into such a scam!!!! Amen. "Wonders will never end as these desperate thieves will do anything; the next thing we will hear is that they have their mothers on sale!!!" Do send to loved ones… The victim wrote; NEW STRATEGY OF SCAMMERS My name is Professor Moruf Adelekan. On 3 June 2008 , I received an email in my hotmail address asking me to reconfirm my account or risk it being deleted. The mail stated that "hotmail" is experiencing congestion problem, and would delete all accounts not reconfirmed within 48 hours or so. This "hotmail" alert mail looked quite genuine as it had the MSN logo etc. Believing this mail was genuine, I responded by supplying all the required details including my password. On 4 June 2008 , I was alerted by friends all over the globe that they have received an e-mail purportedly signed in my name stating that I have been stranded in Malaysia and asking people to send money to me via Western Union . As I used the same password for my yahoo account, the scammers also gained access into my yahoo account and sent a similar mail to many people on the contact list. The fraudsters changed the passwords in both accounts and completely denied me access to the accounts. I could therefore only send out a disclaimer to a small number of contacts who I could remember and reach by phone or through other means. The amount of damage that the scammers have done and could do in the short and long term could only best be imagined. First, the scammers have sent the hoax mail to so many people all over the globe, including my several contacts during my stint in the United Nations. Many of the latter I have not communicated with for years. The mail has also gone to many professional colleagues. Thanks to those of you who could contact me one way or the other to check what has happened. However, many do not even know where I work at the moment and I only hope they have not fallen prey to the antics of the scammers. My Medical Director here in the UK received his own copy of the e-mail while attending a conference in the USA . He quickly left the conference room and sent a message to his secretary to contact me before getting the money across to me. Of course, I was sitting in my office when the MD's secretary contacted my own secretary. Secondly, I have many sensitive documents in the two accounts that have been compromised. I have therefore alerted my professional colleagues and bodies, business concerns, local and international law enforcement agencies about this scam to pre-empt and avert (as much as possible) any illegal use of these documents. Thirdly, this scam has put me and my family under intense stress since 4 June 2008 . In the days following the scam, we had to respond to telephone calls from concerned colleagues and friends from all continents 24 hours of the day. Further the whole episode has been like "robbery without a gun" with these scammers gaining full access to documents I had always thought were "reservedly mine and confidential". There is also the fear of the unknown with regard to what illegal use these scammers could make of the documents. Finally, it is psychologically depressing and distracting when you have several work time lines to meet. What measures have I taken? I reported the incident to yahoo and hotmail within 24 hours of its occurrence. I received automated messages from both organizations stating that some action would be taken. However, up till now, only hotmail has asked me to formally lodge a complaint to them through my Solicitor. I am currently working on the latter. Following some advice I received from an IT expert, I was able use the "forgot your password" prompt on my old yahoo address, answered the security questions and reset my password. Hence, I have regained full access to my old yahoo address although I do not intend to use the compromised address any longer. As hitherto stated, I have alerted relevant individuals and organizations on the security aspects of the scam. Lessons to learn 1. Never fall into the same trap I fell into. Never respond to any mail requesting that you reconfirm your yahoo and hotmail account under whatever pretext, particularly where you are requested to supply your password. 2. Please realize that the scammers are becoming more desperate by the day and do not care in the least about the possible multiple psychological, social and economic consequences of their action. Hence, we should be sensitive to any other tricks they may come up with. A British MP Sarah McCarthy-Fry also became a victim to a similar scam method last week (see BBC News http://news.bbc.co.ukhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/ of 19 June 2008 ). 3. Do not keep or save sensitive files and documents on your yahoo, hotmail or similar accounts. They are no longer as safe as we had always thought they were. The experts advise that such documents should be kept in our hard disks and essentially should be password-protected. Some people have even suggested that yahoo and hotmail should no longer be used for serious business and we should instead subscribe to less-popularized and less at-risk e-mail providers. A serious food for thought, I would think. 4. Please read more about steps to take to avoid becoming a victim to this scam technique called phishing in the security sections of yahoo or hotmail. 5. Remember this is a clear case of prevention being better than cure. If you fall a victim, you are completely on your own struggling to cope to with the multiple adverse effects, including contracting a solicitor to fight your case for you. My experience is that yahoo and hotmail as organizations are very slow in responding, if they do at all.They would also not take any immediate action to close down the affected account due to privacy rights of their subscribers, among other possible reasons. 6. Please circulate this write-up widely to your family, friends and colleagues in order to raise awareness and prevent more people falling victim to this scamming technique. Conclusion: E-mail scamming is taking a frighteningly dangerous dimension as scammers now use the more invasive method called phishing, which exposes their victim to serious consequences as highlighted in this piece. Those of us whose daily business hinge squarely on the e-mail system need to be fully aware of this and other newly emerging scamming methods. We should alert one another and work with relevant organizations including law enforcement agencies to stop the scammers in their track. We should take all precautions to avoid becoming a victim to what I have described as "robbery without a gun". Thank God, I am not aware that any of my contacts has sent any money to the scammers but this does not make the possible short and long-term impacts any less damaging. I thank you all for your support during this trying period. Professor Moruf Adelekan Blackburn, UK 22 June 2008[/b] |

OPEN LETTER TO EFCC- INVESTIGATE DONALD DUKE! TRANSPARENCY IN NIGERIA , CROSS RIVER CHAPTER & CROSS RIVER MOVEMENT FOR JUSTICE. 98 Marian Road , Hepo Box 153 , Calabar, Cross River State , Nigeria . 0708 770 4831 Mrs Farida Waziri The Executive Chairman Economic and Financial Crimes Commission Abuja . Dear Madam, RE: REQUEST FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF THE SOURCE OF FUNDING OF THE BUILDING OF N0.9A GERARD ROAD, IKOYI, LAGOS, NIGERIA KNOWN AS ‘ ADMIRALTY TOWERS’. We write in request of the above subject matter. We are Anti-Corruption Non Governmental Organizations based in Calabar, Cross River State of Nigeria . In consonance with the objectives of these NGOS ,we humbly and respectfully invite you to launch an investigation into the ownership of No. 9 A Gerard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos known as ‘ ADMIRALTY TOWERS’. The property is a Three Sets of High Rise luxury Flats. Presently it is rented to some multinational oil firms. We suspect that this massive property was built with proceeds from ‘dirty money’ stolen by Mr. Donald Duke, Governor of Cross River State of Nigeria , 1999-2007. We further use this medium to request to launch investigation into all the Petitions which we had submitted to your Commission against Donald Duke and his wife for the massive corruption, graft and stealing of public funds in Cross River State which the Commission has refused to investigate. We urge your Commission to particularly investigate the deduction of allocation of money from the Federation Accounts to the Local Government Councils in Cross River State from 2003-2007. We invite to investigate the role of Mrs. Onari Duke and her NGO ‘Enterprise Nigeria Foundation’ in the illegal withdrawal of hundreds of Million of Naira from the Joint State Local Government Accounts into the coffers of the said NGO. We had sent to the Commission payment vouchers showing how these monies were illegally siphoned from the Joint State Accounts. We invite to investigate the misappropriation of the sum of N1 billion allocated towards the resettlement of the people of Bakassi affected by the Green Tree Agreement between Nigeria and Cameroon . We invite to investigate the disappearance from the coffers of the Government of Cross River State of the more than N2 Billon awarded Cross River State by the Supreme Court in a case instituted by the Cross River State against the Federal Government of Nigeria and Akwa Ibom State over the ownership of Oil Wells. We invite to investigate the indebtedness of the Cross River State which is approximately put in the region of more than N120 Billion. All these debts were incurred by Donald Duke under the guise of the development of the Tinapa Business Resort even after he claimed the project was private sector driven. We believe that the money used to develop the said No. 9 A Gerard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos known as ‘ADMIRALTY TOWERS’ came from these illicit deals that were the hallmarks of Donald Duke’s Government in Cross River State. We urge you to save the future generation of Cross River State from being perpetual debtors over questionable loans that ended up in the private pockets of corrupt officials. It is curious that your Commission has failed to act with dispatch in this matter concerning Donald Duke. We implore you to dust all our Petitions that have gathered dust from your archives to prove or show that they are no sacred cows in our country again. We urge not to allow Donald Duke and his mindless cohorts get away from their atrocious and hideous crimes against the people of Cross River State in his eights of adventure. Yours sincerely Okoi Obono-Obla Culled from: www.saharareporters.com |
