Economic Nobel for Mr. Krugman
I just read from nytimes that the Nobel Prize for the Economics field went to a professor from Princeton University. His name was Paul Krugman, 55 years old. Besides being a professor, he is also Op-Ed page columnist for The New York Times.
He got the Nobel for creating a model that explains why countries or companies sell or buy the same goods that they imports or exports. His model also explains how globalization has given more stress on people live in big cities because all things are cramped there.
His model also explains that because of Globalization, only a handful of countries control the world’s economy by producing goods which they don’t even have the natural resources to produce the goods.
Maybe Mr. Krugman was right. That explains why there are lots of companies from big countries have factories operating in my countries (Indonesia). For example, we have Nestle, Unilever, Pfizer and many more. Indonesia has these abundant resources (human and natural) that they don’t have back at their home. So, they built it here and sell it some where else and they got the profit.
Paul Krugman was born in Long Island, NY. He got his PHD from MIT in 1977 and teaching at Yale, MIT, UC Berkeley, The London School of Economics and Stanford University, before he stayed at Princeton in 2000.
He was also a strong critic of the Bush administration. He was strongly against the $700 billion bailout plan which was designed by Henry Paulson which he thinks it was more like a Russian financial Roulette.

No Jumping from the Golden Gate Bridge Please
Since its opening in 1937, the Golden Gate Bridge has become a favorite spot for jumpers. It was recorded that so far about 2000 people have jumped off this bridge to commit suicide.
To overcome this, recently, the board of the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District has decided to set a stainless-steel netting that would catch a jumper. No news yet on the effectiveness of this net.
The net costs up to $50 million and needs around $78,000 per year for the maintenance.
The Golden Gate Bridge is a the longest suspension bridge span in the world. It connects the city of San Francisco and the San Fransisco Peninsula.

Conecticut Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage
The State of Connecticut has followed California and Massachusetts in legalizing gay marriage. The Supreme Court thinks that it is the constitutional right for everyone (including gays) to get married.
The ruling will take in to effect on October 2008. If you’re a gay and want the state to recognize your same-sex relationship, than you should be glad to hear it. However, religious groups have raised concern about this.
