Maos Final Resting Place

May 30th, 2008 by admin

Tiananmen Square is probably the biggest square in the world; it is located at the Centre of Beijing China’s capital. Though the square is infamous for the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests also become a tourist attraction for its cultural and historical significance. The history of the square dates back to the 15th century when Tiananmen Gate was built during the Ming dynasty. The square was later used as a base by British and French troops that invade China in 1860. However the present nature of Tiananmen Square only came to be when troops required a place to assemble during the 1900’s Boxer Rebellion, thus Tiananmen Square was built in its present form.

Do Your Customers Understand What You Have Said Or What You Mean?

May 30th, 2008 by admin

The customer experience needs to be exceptional within every interaction specific to your customer’s expectations. Not meeting those expectations is a recipe for disaster.

Case in point. Today, I went out at my usual 4:30am CDT to retrieve my daily newspaper so that I could begin my regular weekday routine. Unfortunately, there was no paper. Given that my delivery service is highly consistent, my thought was that there might have been a press problem and it will come later.

Four hours later, the paper had not arrived. I called the home delivery service telephone number and received, you guessed it, an automatic telephone response system because all customer service representatives were busy now. Does this sound familiar?

A New Approval Of Uks National Institute For Health And Clinical Excellence (nice)

May 30th, 2008 by admin

On the 26th March, Sanofi-Aventis, the third largest pharmaceutical manufacturer in the world, announced that the UK’s National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), had approved Acomplia for use in the National Health Service (NHS). NICE is a non-governmental organisation. It plays the role of a gatekeeper and, if it approves a medication, its use in the NHS is subsidised out of public funds. Up to now, Acomplia has had approval granted by the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) for use on private prescription only. So patients have had to pay the full retail price for Acomplia. This decision by NICE means that patients who have a BMI of 30 or more, or a BMI of 27 with associated risk factors, can now get treatment without having to pay for Acomplia (the change of diet and the introduction of physical exercise have no additional cost implications). This is a small step forward for Sanofi-Aventis which has a good product but has found it difficult to promote its use.

Calorie Shifting Diet - Take The Weekends Off

May 30th, 2008 by admin

The Calorie Shifting Diet is a rare breed among diet regimens. It is the only diet that actually allows you to, and as a matter of fact, requires you to, take a mandatory three-day break from the diet every two weeks!

Why? Because you will be losing weight extremely rapidly on this program, at a rate of about nine pounds every eleven days. That is an alarming rate of just shy of one pound per day. At this rate, you can expect to see some eye-popping results. In order to give your body a chance to rest and recover from this rapid weight loss, you need to take a break from the diet.
