Quote of the Day
"It is easy to get caught up in our life's troubles on a typical day. I challenge you, and myself, to wake up tomorrow with the feeling that, it "is" Christmas Day and carry with you that magical feeling of appreciation in all you do."

By the closing years of the 20th century, Rotary wanted to establish a new program where peacemaking was not just a backdrop but was the main focus. The Rotary Centers for International Studies in peace and conflict resolution is a program with which future leaders could be equipped with the professional skills to resolve conflict in the new millennium. A center was established at seven renowned universities in Argentina, Australia, England, France, Japan, and the United States. Each year, starting in 2002, 70 scholars began a two-year master’s-level degree program in conflict resolution, peace studies, and international relations. Einstein once said, "A new type of thinking is essential if mankind is to survive and move to higher levels."

| Business Note of the Day |
|
You have much to fear and even more to lose if you become a victim of commercial fraud. Approximately 30 percent of all business credit losses are attributed to some type of misleading or fraudulent information. How do these fraudsters operate?
"Bustouts" or "overbuys": These terms describe criminal activity designed to obtain large amounts of merchandise without paying for it.
"Hit and run": A swindler moves into a location and orders merchandise COD, paying with phony certified or cashier's checks. By the time the check bounces, the "skip artist" has moved on to a new location to repeat the fraud.
"Advanced fee scams": An up-front payment is obtained for services to be rendered after, supposedly to cover costs. This advance fee is accepted with no intention of providing the service.
The net result is that financial damages from these and other business scams far overshadow losses from consumer fraud. On average, losses are three to 10 times higher.
