CFE Servants

Nevertheless, although many already we are cured of frights, djeme I set out the reason to him reason why this case is still interesting. It is that the Department of Justice of the USA gave a to know by means of an official notice the investigation a network bribes by hundreds thousands dollars in which 4 civil servants of the Federal Commission of Electricity are implied. The official notice informs that John Or Shea, ex- manager of a branch of the American company Sugar Land (subsidiary of the corporative ABB Group) authorized in 1997 to bribe to four managers which not yet they occur to know his names in exchange for contracts. The operation was coordinated by the Mexican Mayan Fernando Basurto, who maintained contacts with these civil servants and whom its culpability 16 of November confessed the past. Or Shea, was accused of 18 violations the Law of Corrupt Practices abroad, where also positions of money laundering, document conspiracy and falsification are included.

According to the authorities, this branch signed at least two contracts with CFE by goods and services from 1997, first by implementing a Realtime information system of Administration and Control of Energa (SITRACEN) by 44mdd and the second in 2003 period in which he was to the order Felipe Caldern Hinojosa to renew the contract, to modernize and to give maintenance to the SITRACEN by 37mdd. The agreement with the corrupt managers of CFE was to give 10% to them of the money that Sugar Land obtained by the awardings, – that not even occurred by licitation. The bribes disguised like legitimate payments by technical services and of maintenance. As it is to be expected the reaction of the CFE was to define itself of the facts alleging that never it had knowledge of these acts, and until it interposed a penal denunciation that gave rise to the previous inquiry 136/2009 against that is responsible for corruption acts which they involve the American companies, which will be in charge of the Office of the public prosecutor for Crimes Committed by servants public of the PGR. Nevertheless, documents of one cut federal of the United States, assure that ABB informed at least into these facts to the Mexican authorities from 2004, when the company discovered this bribe and alerted to the Department of Justice of the United States and to Mexican authorities. The subject does not have for when to finish and in many cases is spoken in which Light and Force of the Center also participated in contracts with this company of Swiss origin; what by the way, its extinction justifies according to the federal Executive according to the presidential decree of the 11 of October. But the question is in the air, will be really the Federal Commission of Electricity company of world-wide stature?

Methods Control

Important it is to stand out in this point that although these models to be attempts of continued improvements, still exist the call automation of the processes information, factor that allows the companies to reduce its supplies, to increase its productive capacity and the quality of its services, beyond diminishing the time of processing and the level of production. Thus the automation of the manufactures can simply produce a competitive advantage for the increase of answers for qualities and shorter times of reaction. The more companies if to automatize, more competitive pressures will force to other in such a way proceed it companies until the point that the automation of information systems pass to be the equivalent to its proper survival. But so that this reality is present and operating and, that it can produce resulted positive is necessary the existence of a good planning and an efficient system of managemental control. The handle of this, Antonio Cury comments in its book, Organizations and Methods – a holistic vision – that a good managemental planning this in the choice of goals and forecast of results through some ways that, therefore, direction of as if to reach the goals desired by means of a managemental control and actions that will program the planned decisions. It complements, still, that of the flexibility of the planning by means of foreseen situations they do not allow the controlling better to use to advantage the chances that had not been foreseen when of the original plan. that by no means, the managemental control would have to mean to the controlling, allegiance to the established plans, specifically when new events indicate that the actions that will bring better resulted for the company they are not in accord with the original plan. I idealize that inside of this context and in the vision of my research it is certain that a good planning and a good control are so linked to the point that many controlling do not perceive or they do not lose time trying to establish rigid distinctions between both and that the problems that involve the systems of managemental control the imperfections are exclusively on technician and to the types of systems of information used or in the frequency with that human factor or capital operative and changeable human being, is many times the responsible one for many of these problems.

Scholastic Libraries

the creation and application on national scale of different information systems able to guarantee the services to the population such as; National system of Bibliotecas Pblicas (SNBP), National System of Scholastic Libraries, National System of File, National System of Information of Sciences and Technology, System of University Libraries, National System of Medical Information and National System of Farming Information. the SNBP, has its methodologic governing center in the National Library Jose Mart, is formed by 401 public libraries: 13 at provincial level, 156 policemen and 232 branch presents in countryside and urban, took care of in 2004, to 8.7 million users and offered 13.6 million services. the scientific centers toil incessantly to develop vaccines, drugs and treatments against the diseases, in particular, most serious than knock down, not only to our country, but also to those of the Third World. the television, radio and presses do not practice the commercial publicity. Any promotion is directed to questions of health, education, culture, deports, recreation, defense of the environment; it fights against drugs, or other problems of social character.

In Cuba, for more than four decades, all the means of the country, including some international, integrates the great regional alternative press, with international presence, taking advantage of the use the TIC, because the Caribbean country account at the moment with 136 mass media in Internet. The antihegemonic message of its spaces is consequent with all the principles proclaimed by the NOIIC, ethical of UNESCO and the original ones of the FELAP. Cuba has devised and developed technical to teach to read and to write by radio with texts today made in five languages: creole, Portuguese, English and Spanish French, that has been put in practice in several countries. He was developed similar method in Spanish, I yes Can, to alphabetize using the television which was used in Venezuela with magnificent results.

Transit Question

Implementation of the process of urban reform enters of the challenges of this first esta, by means of the implementation doPrograma of Reinforcement of the Urban Municipal Management, whose instruments foramo Statute of the city and the Managing Plan Participativo and, in> parallel to this, had been implemented the Conferences of the City and the National Politics Urban deDesenvolvimento. Other challenges are: improvements the conditions dehabitabilidade, accessibility and of urban mobility, with emphasis in qualidadede life and the environment. The actions that destrincham these challenges, according to oplano, are come back toward the attainment of information systemize on arede urban and the intra-urban characteristics that will be the base for aelaborao, execution and evaluation of the national politics of desenvolvimentourbano. All the programs related to the development urbanoforam launched in 2004, in notebooks for the Ministry of the Cities. They had been 9Cadernos with the following subjects: Energy efficiency in Habitations deInteresse Social, National Politics of Urban Development, Social Participation eControle, Urban Territorial Planning and Agrarian Politics, PolticNacional of Habitation, Ambient Sanitation, National Politics of MobilidadeUrbana Sustainable, Transit Question of Citizenship, Capacitao and Informao.Estes Notebooks already hugged in its content others public politics voltadaspara the urban development brought by the Conferences of the Cidadesrealizadas in 2003. The subjects of Notebooks had been also argued in National umSeminrio in 2004, on the National Politics of DesenvolvimentoUrbano, carried through in Baslia with the presence of all team doMinistrio technique. This seminary was the chance that I had to see really emnvel federal as if they gave to the quarrels and the real opening for the debate esugestes that were incorporated there in messas to the final text. The wealth that seabre with the proportionate chance for the open and qualified interchange deexperincias and experiences of the society, the institutions and the managers pblicosfoi really a new experience for who acts in the planning and had idealized essasprticas as theory.

The Beginning

The result of this concept is to try to abolish a threat when an attack or disaster is changed into. Already the protection, has for objective to implant security politics to inhibit, to detect and to protect any attempt of attack to the system of information of the organization (PIG, 2005). In accordance with It hisses (2003), the main points for implantation of the security of the information must follow the five basic principles: The relation cost and benefit: to guarantee investments for the favorable implementation and the maintenance, and the return that provides to the prevention and the protection of the information system. Such situation alone is remembered by the proprietors when a great disaster or attack occurs and the cost of restoration of the information of the databases many times, it is bigger of what it had invested months in a system of security of the safe and steady information.

The beginning of the concentration: it provides to the possibility of if managing the measures necessary of security of the information to take care of to necessities of improvement of protection of different sensible databases the alterations. The beginning of the protection in depth: it provides measures of security protection (physical or logical) as cameras of monitoring, biometria and recognition of voice. The use of this principle prevents a set of distinct and doubtful measures of protection for not becoming an inefficient and slow addition of obstacles for surrounding the safest one. The beginning of the consistency: it determines that the measures of protection of ITSELF possess one level of interchangeable sensitivity so that they reduce the imperfections of the programs of security of the organizations. Its use in such a way reaches at every level accesses of the information system as physicist or logical, for example, to hinder that a 7 son of one partner of the organization installs games, has access improper pages with the server of the company or to allow not authorized people to have access to the computers of the organization.

Subscription Service Computer

Outsourcing (born outsourcing) or, in other words, subscription services, namely, to delegate non-core functions of a subscriber (such as legal support, computer service, or accounting for the metallurgical Company) Foreign performers – highly skilled third-party firms, outsourcers, sub-contractors, the rejection of its own business process, such as network administration or preparation balance, and purchase of services for its execution of the parties, a specialized company. As an example, consider a more IT-outsourcing, or, in other words, a subscriber service computer and office equipment (Computer services, computer help, comes a system administrator), which can be divided into four main components: a subscription service pbx and telephony subscriber services office equipment, subscription services network, subscriber services computers. It is believed that the user's service network includes the following computer services: highly round the clock telephone consultation and e-mail sales and commissioning of network equipment, its installation, replacement, modernization, and the corresponding adjustment, installation and configuration of firewalls, anti-virus software, installing and configuring network equipment network integration and construction of telecommunications systems, access control and protection from unauthorized access, installation and dismantling, upgrading lan, scs, including wireless networks to connect to the Internet, administration and maintenance of health of the local area network, server administration, integration of geographically distributed offices single workspace; introduction of the traffic; scheduled preventive visits, unlimited number of extra emergency exits of the highly skilled, remote administration of a local network, and including the administration of servers across the Internet. Assumed that the subscriber's pbx and telephony services is to provide a subscriber of these IT-services: sales and commissioning pbx installation, configuration and programming of pbx, round the clock telephone consultation and e-mail routine preventive visits, unlimited number of extra emergency exits corresponding narrow specialists; dismantling, assembling and building telephone lines.

Advances in Technology

There is refractive eye surgery to reduce people’s dependence on glasses or contact lenses. this corrects their myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. It is possible that this is both eyes at the same time, and after you clear vision. But how does this surgery? This explains Setup proceed and technology through LASIK. To understand LASIK surgery, it is necessary to understand how the eye works. The eyes function like a camera: they have glasses or lenses that refract the light reflected from objects and focus, but instead of film camera, eye retinas are used. The retinas interpret the image and sent to the brain via the optic nerves. Under the conditions of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, the lens can not focus light onto the retina.

Glasses or contact lenses to change the light before it enters the eye. But LASIK manipulates the surface of the eye so they can focus light properly. LASIK surgery consists of three parts: 1. First, create a flap in the surface of the eye 2. Second, a laser reshapes the cornea 3.

Three, replaces the flap to recover completely, the procurement last minute. We need to recover for two or three days, but the majority of LASIK patients can see clearly in the morning after surgery. An Amazing Technology Advances In the past, an instrument called a micro-keratome, a fine mechanical blade creates the corneal flap. There is a new laser that can create the flap. Is called. Intrastate is a microsecond infrared laser. In other words, use very short pulses of light: one quadrillion of a second. Such brevity allows precision larger than other lasers used in LASIK surgery. Sometimes, this laser is best to create the flap, but it is necessary to consider the pros and cons to both instruments. The micro-keratome is more convenient because: Recovery is faster There is less pain The procedure is shorter It is more Panamanians But IntrLase has many advantages as well, including: Creating tabs in the corneas too thin for a micro-keratome Less risk of complications If there are complications in creating the flap, you may try again in an hour while it is necessary to wait three months with a microkeratome Both technologies work well to create the flap. Check with your to choose what is best for you. However, LASIK is one of the safest surgeries performed and the complication rate with any instrument is small mu. But the skill and experience of your surgeon are the key components to a successful outcome. Find a surgeon who has used the two instruments many times.

Cultural Center

Being young at the dawn of his creative powers 20 years ago I had the idea to arrange a three-room apartment with an unusual design according to the three times: past, present and future. Bedroom would have been in my present time, that is more natural, adequate time coloring, furniture, modern, etc. A large hall, I'd dipped into the past tense – antiquarian, classic paintings, etc. Well, a nursery, I would teleportnul in the future, where advanced materials, fantastic design and the pictures of space, furniture appropriate, everything is automated and computerized. It took some time and my thoughts began to push the boundaries and I thought at first about the cottage, and then the cultural center of the times. For example, in a large region of the Volga region to construct a cultural center, which would halls could accommodate local history, antiques, classical music and painting, which would have formed a single gallery the last time. It would be housed in the lower, and spacious ground floor. Viewing would begin from the time of inception of the cultural layer in this region and gradually move to the halls now.

Rooms now would be placed on the floors in natural light, the halls would be separated from the external environment only glass with large windows. Under such conditions could be placed Halls botanical garden, aquarium and a small zoo, immediately acquainted rooms to visitors from different resources region, industry and production, life and customs, ethnic groups and nationalities that inhabit this region. Gradually the room this time of transition to the upper floors. On the upper floors, I would have posted the halls, which would be designed for a large plate. These spacious rooms, I would have posted a planetarium and other recent projects. Accordingly, all around the high-tech, computerized. Everywhere displayed a variety of information, the robots have multi visitors a variety of services.

Security service in this territory is the most tech, secured with the latest tools and technologies. Everywhere cameras, which provide access to the Internet. Mobile review of the cultural center will provide all entered into the Internet. But the project is currently too expensive and it is unlikely in the near future time to materialize.
