A census of the world population is taken every ten years

Image
A census is taken in the various countries of the world roughly every ten years. In China, six million enumerators were needed in 2010 to go around every household to collect information on forms. In Finland, on the other hand, the population census at the turn of last year was hardly noticeable. Since 1990, Statistics Finland has been carrying out censuses directly based on administrative registers without troubling the citizens, but in most parts of the world, censuses still rely on the conventional method of interviews. Following a UN recommendation, an effort is made to conduct population censuses always in years ending with a ten, while in practice the time of the census may vary in different countries. The first data for the census of 2010, for example, had already been collected in 2005 in some countries, whereas in others they will not be collected until 2014. In April 2011, an estimated 79 per cent of the world population had been enumerated, and a census had been carried

The Military's Pandora's Box

The Military's Pandora's Box  This article was prepared to provide a summary of the contents of a book written in 1995 which describes an entirely new class of weapons. The weapons and their effects are described in the following pages. The United States Navy and Air Force have joined with the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, to build a prototype for a ground based "Star Wars" weapon system located in the remote bush country of Alaska. The individuals who are demanding answers about HAARP are scattered around the planet. As well as bush dwellers in Alaska, they include: a physician in Finland; a scientist in Holland; an anti-nuclear protester in Australia; independent physicists in the United States; a grandmother in Canada, and countless others. Unlike the protests of the 1960s the objections to HAARP have been registered using the tools of the 1990s. From the Internet, fax machines, syndicated talk radio and a number of alternative print mediums the

500 BEST PAID WORKERS NAMED.

- Full List Of Uganda's Top Employees In June, Red Pepper in its pages published that whereas the Pope is paid one silver coin per year to run the Catholic Church,some Chief Executive Officers in Uganda get such huge salaries to run small companies that you wonder whether their firms are keeping any money for a rainy day.This salary story created hubbub in the public and even in corridors of power as a shocking stunt of the year. Top on the list of CEOs was Paul Mare, formerly Managing Director of Umeme who was getting a staggering Shs.114m every month. He was closely followed by Ricardo Fonsenca, the Managing Director at the British American Tobacco who earns a cool Shs.80m. Number 3 in the best paid catalogue is Seambelar Pedro, the Argentine Area Leaf Growing Manager at BATU who earns Shs.57m every month. The article that examined the wages picked by some of the leading executives in Kampala left several in a fit, many excited and others simply stunned. Feed back at the time

List of wealthiest people in Uganda

List of wealthiest people in Uganda The per capita income in Uganda in 2012 was approximately US$490 annually. An estimated 25% of the 35,000,000 Ugandans live on less than US$1.00 per day. Under those circumstances, wealth accumulation that would not merit mention in wealthier communities attracts a lot of attention in Ugandan circles. Compiled here is a list of individuals in Uganda whose accumulated assets are known to be markedly above the rest of the individuals in the country. The list is not exhaustive and net worth values are hard to determine. The list is divided into seven classes of wealthy individuals: The New Money Class - Acquired their wealth within the last fifteen years. The Young Entrepreneurs - Less than fifty years old. The Executive Class - CEO 's and Managing Directors of government departments and private firms. The Expatriates - Non-Ugandans (Some in this class may have dual citizenship ). The Pastors -
