World's Least and Most Corrupt Countries 2009 Infographic Map
http://media.transparency.org/imaps/cpi2009/
This is the info graphic map released by Transparency International to indicate how each country performs in the fight against corruption

World's Least and Most Corrupt Countries 2009
Berlin - Transparency International releases the 2009 edition of its signature study of international corruption--this time with infographics.
Transparency International has just released its 2009 Corruption Perceptions Index, the preeminent, annual study of governmental corruption levels around the world.
This time, they've added a nice little interactive map--not much too it, besides the fact that mousing over the country gives you the numeric value. But it does give you a great indication of what countries do well, relative to their neighbors and what countries are basically sinkholes of graft and fraud. For example, Uruguay and Botswana do far better than the countries around them--no wonder that Botswana in particular is a prime example of economic development that works.
The CPI is a survey of surveys, which combines indexes found in 13 feeder studies with the expertise of academics who follow these issues. (Experts are polled on questions like how well a country's courts work, and the effectiveness of its watch dog agencies.)
If your new to the study, the most surprising thing will be how poorly the U.S. does, relative to its first world peers. We're basically just a shade above some pretty dicey governments. The reasons are complex, but you can point to the influence of lobbying on our lawmaking and the ongoing controversy over how we've prosecuted the war on terror, among other things.
Afghanistan has slipped three places to become the world's second most-corrupt country despite billions in aid meant to bolster the government against a rising insurgency, according to an annual survey of perceived levels of corruption.
Only lawless Somalia, whose weak U.N.-backed government controls just a few blocks of the capital, was perceived as more corrupt than Afghanistan in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index.
Iraq saw some improvement, rising to 176 of 180 countries, up two places up from last year. Singapore, Denmark and New Zealand were seen as the least corrupt countries in the list based on surveys of businesses and experts.
In Afghanistan, President Hamid Karzai's inability or unwillingness to tackle cronyism and bribery the past five years have resulted in an increase of support for the Taliban insurgents. That has prompted calls by the Obama administration for Karzai to tackle the practice or risk forfeiting U.S. aid.
Since 2001, the U.S. Congress has appropriated more than $39 billion in humanitarian and reconstruction assistance for Afghanistan, according to a report by the U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction. European nations send about 1 billion euros ($1.49 billion) a year, a total of 9 billion euros since 2002.
International donors are increasingly questioning how much of the billions of dollars in aid might have been misappropriated.
The report said examples of Afghan corruption ranged from the sale of government positions to daily bribes for basic services.
Karzai unveiled an anti-corruption unit and major crime fighting force on Monday after heavy pressure from Washington.
In reaction to the report, Ershad Ahmadi, the deputy director general of the High Office of Oversight and Anti-corruption in Afghanistan, said that "corruption is a phenomenon that will not go away overnight. It is a problem that will continue to be with Afghanistan for a long time.
"Until we achieve that sort of national awakening that business as usual is not in the interest of a peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan, you will not be able to achieve success in your anti-corruption campaign," Ahmadi said.
Robin Hodess, Transparency's director of policy and research, said Tuesday that for a country to improve on the corruption perceptions index, it is imperative that "citizens believe that they have a government that works for them."
The governments have to show "that there is the political will to respond to the needs of the people," Hodess said.
In Iraq, corruption has become widespread since the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003 with scarcity of serious government measures against corrupted officials.
That has undermined the largest nation-building efforts with siphoning billions of dollars away from the country's struggling economy, increasing frustrations among Iraqis mainly over corruption, lingering violence and poor public services.
A Bertelsmann Foundation report used in the corruption index noted that in Iraq "non-security institutions remain weak and debilitated. The Iraqi leadership faces many structural constraints on governance, such as a massive brain drain, a high level of political division, and extreme poverty."
The United States, which was in 19th place compared with 18th last year, remained stable despite Transparency's concerns over a lack of government oversight of the financial sector.
The report also pointed out that the U.S. legislature is another reason for concern, as it is "perceived to be the institution most affected by corruption."
There were some bright spots in the new report — Bangladesh, Belarus, Guatemala, Lithuania, Poland and Syria were among the countries that improved the most.

List of Famous Gays, Lesbians Bisexual and Transgender
Here is a partial list of famous gays (both living and dead). Famous people who are simply rumored to be gay, lesbian or bisexual, are not listed.
The high prevalence of people from the West on this list may be due to societal attitudes toward homosexuality. The Pew Research Center's 2003 Global Attitudes Survey found that "[p]eople in Africa and the Middle East strongly object to societal acceptance of homosexuality. But there is far greater tolerance for homosexuality in major Latin American countries such as Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil. Opinion in Europe is split between West and East. Majorities in every Western European nation surveyed say homosexuality should be accepted by society, while most Russians, Poles and Ukrainians disagree. Americans are divided–a narrow majority (51 percent) believes homosexuality should be accepted, while 42 percent disagree."

Quote of the Day
"You are the making of your own sufferings. If you choose to be happy then you will find it, and if you seek evil, expect misfortune and evil to come."
Come To Think Of This!
Could you imagine how the Filipinos treat Manny Pacquiao because of his wealth? He is given top priority and job and even have a media coverage and sensation on occasions like his birthday, his baby baptismal, his mum's birthday, and all other occasions involve with the family . They are all after Pacquiao's success and wealth.

Chris Brown and Rihanna Unsettled Business
Whats wrong with these two feuding and battering couple. With a blink of an eye the meteoric rise is as fast as the falling star when their fame sharply and steeply fell because of a romantic bickering. It would be a loss and a sad event for the fans since these two young artist (at their 20s) are promising big stars who can throw you hits after hits of rnb music to the taste and delight of its fans. Settlement of dispute and forgiveness and move on is the solution before its too late. We are still hoping they can redeem their battered image in the public and start anew since they already proved their worth in the limelight. Keep shining Rihanna and Chris Brown

Hungry Beast Feeding On The Prize Fighter
Can you imagine Pacquiao and lots of staff and cohorts behind him wherever he goes? Do you know who they are? They are suckers for blood and money. They are behind the prizefighter because of his wealth he pocketed from all the sweat, blood and a life on gamble inside the boxing ring yet these people who were lame and useless and unemployed and that what they can only do is drain Pacquiao of his money because none of them are hardworking enough to find income but the easiest way is to take advantage of others hardships and struggles and much more the politicians are rallying behind him (imagine how they treat the boxer because of his wealth - you know the motives!) and that shows how starving are these for blood money. Hungry beasts preying on the hapless prizefighter.

In the Philippines, the beasts and the social climbers are only good when they are sleeping but they are evil when they are awake, violent and vicious, they forages the innocent grasses out to stain with dark pigment of wickedness, poison and cruelty.
