ETHICS IN GOVERNMENT

Ethical Procurement
Ethics dictates that business be conducted with integrity, fairness, and openness, which require open communication within and among both buying and supplying organizations, ensuring a competitive procurement, and thereby give any organization a chance to compete for contracts and win. It seems like a week does not go by without one hearing a story demonstrating lapses in business ethics stories, where lucky contract winners share close friends in strategic places, as was the case of Halliburton, which was awarded billions in federal no-bid contracts during the years when Dick Cheney was its chief executive officer (CEO).
Recognizing this longstanding problem of competitive procurement becoming the exception, the US government launched the Federal Acquisition Regulation(FAR) more than twenty years ago, to help federal agencies manage procurement more efficiently. FAR is an official document setting forth procurement policies and procedures that US Federal agencies should follow when soliciting offers (bids or proposals) for goods, products, services, or construction from qualified suppliers. Rules are delineated into eight chapters:
General Information, Definitions, Practices, and Administrative Matters
Competition and Acquisition Planning
Contracting Methods and Contract Types
Socioeconomic Programs
General Contracting Requirements
Special Categories of Contracting
Contract Management
Clauses and Forms
In response to competition becoming the exception rather than the rule in procurement, Part 6 of the FAR, Competitive Requirements, incorporated the Competition In Contracting Act (CICA). It seeks to establish full and open competition (FOC) as the standard, in order to eradicate partiality, favoritism, political lobbying, and bribery.
In light of these corporate scandals and the heightened scrutiny over corporate practices, FAR will have a greater impact on business. It contains key elements that all organizations should be aware of, whether they are conducting business with a government agency, or with private entities. Using the policies and procedures outlined by FAR, we will
define what exactly is a competitive procurement, its purpose and benefits;
present the different competitive and non-competitive procurement methods and their supporting processes; and
detail the two key procurement methods:
Invitation for bids (IFB), and
Request for proposals (RFP).
Competitive Procurement
Benefits of Competitive Procurement
The purpose of competition is to benefit your enterprise, and competition should not be promoted for the sake of competition. Indeed, in some cases, it may cost more to enter into a competitive procurement to do business directly with a supplier because of the unicity of the requested products, theinadequacy of other sources, the immediacy of your needs, or the emergencyor legitimacy of circumstances. In other words, competitive procurement should be promoted pragmatism, with other methods thus becoming exceptions.
Competitive procurement is the contractual acquisition (purchase or lease) by an organization of any kind of asset, whether material (goods, products, or construction) or immaterial (services) with appropriated funds, enabling all deemed responsible sources to compete in a fair and open environment. Competitive procurement is also known as full and open competition (FOC), orcompetitive solicitation.
While procurement is supposed to bring fairness, impartiality, transparency, and suitability to corporate practices, a competitive procurement process will ensure the highest level of openness, thus maximizing the suitability of the requested assets or services, and the best return on investment (ROI).

2012 & BEYOND THE ASCENSION AMEN

A Yin & Yang symbol surrounded by the 'ba gua'...
Image via Wikipedia
What is an Extra-Terrestrial Social Paranormal Time Traveler?
By: TJTM aka Theresa and TJ

I have recently been asked how to become a Paranormal writer. For many of us who have studied the occult and metaphysical, we simply chose a path with special interests.
Some of us began studying meditation and the Eastern philosophies. Some of us chose to adopt the Western Ways and combine them like Yin and Yang of all energy. Some of us actually like to use Feng Sui.
Some of us have studied Magick Without Tears by Aleister Crowley and many others who were once trying to understand life while on earth and how life was involved with the Akashic Field.
We are all beings and all books. We are all things of the Web.
This may or may not have anything to do with why some of us are those who have paranormal experiences and why some of us have extraterrestrial experiences or have had abduction experiences.
Some of us have actually had physical reality experiences in the human realty with our conscious physical beings being part of the experiments of extra terrestrials.
I for one have been involved with both the Nordics and the Grays as have many beings who I know who have pleasant experiences. We also are aware that there are many who have been abducted and had unpleasant experiences. We believe that this is not appropriate behavior by others who are considered certain types of grays who are also intelligent beings who visit earth from other galaxies.
It has come to my attention that some beings who have had these unpleasant experiences need to realize that there are those of us on earth who exist that have had real pleasant personal experiences. These are not just in dreams, and out of body but actual physical real life experiences with extraterrestrials that are not known as common beings on earth. They come to this planet in what is referred to as spacecraft that some call UFOS.
There has always been some of us that can seem weird to say the least because we are open minded and are not closed into the box of only three dimensions. This will be explained through out the world as time passes on earth.
We are presently working with those who desire to raise the consciousness and vibrations of all that is in the Magnetic Field or the Glue that holds all Metaverses together in order to assist in controlling what we now refer to as the chaos of the Quantum Entanglement. We are striving to share in energy that is presently formed in sound waves that are referred to as communication on earth.
Some call these alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and theta waves that are all around in all thinking in all things at all times. This energy cannot be destroyed and is the constant flow in flux.
We do not want to lose those who can follow the past Theory of Relativity and the Dark and Black Holes that are presently becoming known and are studied throughout the new universe. We are they that choose to open all possibilities of time travel through the worm holes in stellar space for all beings that are presently residing on earth. This will happen in time.
We are all part of the all being and the all eternal throughout time in the infinity of space-time continuum in the Metaverses. We are presently formed in that which cannot be destroyed as energy while on earth in all forms. Be patient and be hopeful and desire health and prosperity for all living and created in your world which is also our world as well.
Writing magical and mysterious is being a Social Paranormalist. There isn’t much that has changed about the intelligent being species throughout recorded time on planet earth other than the magical and mysterious that is now referred to as part of the social paranormal of the 21st Century.
We are they that create stars in the total darkness of the space-time continuum. We are they who are the sparks of life that thrive beneath what is now termed the 46 pair of chromosomes in the DNA that make up the physical being that is the vessel for the spirit and silver chord that reaches out to the Mother and Father Soul of Creation.
We are about the Creationist of All Energy as the God Particle. We are the Hope and Inspiration of every aspiring young Artist who is learning to be more than their present minds in time can imagine. We are the imagination and the still small voice inside every man, woman, and child no matter where they may be and no matter what physical vessel they may possess.
We are they who are about showing those who visit earth in the physical, mental, and spiritual life form that they can find their way back home after achieving their time on earth to achieve perfection as was meant to BE and find PURPOSE in life on earth.
We are they that are the nonconformist attitude and the futurists in consciousness that is considered living in the mind while on earth in the physical and mental bodies.
We are spirit that comes and goes from the many and all that is one in the metaverses that achieves what is considered the “All that has Always Been.”
We are they that honor the Yin and Yang, the Alpha and the Omega of all creations. We are they that are in tune with the Mother Nature and Father
Time that is all that is wrapped up in form of material and matter that is considered what can be known on earth as energy and mass.
We are the all-inspiring stories of religions and governments that have done the ruling of the organizing of the chaos in the time dimensions that have come and gone through the billions of years in the time space continuum that is recognized by all consciousness of all super intelligent Supreme Beings.
We are they that honor both our Father and Mother Creators of the All.
We are they that has been forever and will be from to time that humankind may set foot on planet earth as beings that were formed to become the first 46 pairs of Chromosomes that were matched from the perfection of what was all life forms in all 46 other metaverses in the Quantum Entanglement of the Source.
We are they that give life to the meaning of spiritual being.
We are they that bring the light to darkness and the antimatter to the matter. There is nothing in the dark and light that does not exist in the energy that is all there is without our presence for we are those who create that which is now called the 46 pairs of chromosomes which make up that which is truly the all knowing and all being as social paranormal genome creations.
We are the luminosity in the mind when one cannot see, hear, touch, taste, smell or feel with the inner knowing and the outer being. The emotions that are thought to be formed while on earth are nothing but weather barometers for the human mind.
We are they that will fill in the blanks about the genetic engineering or the genetic codes that was once unknown. We are they who assist in the genomes, which is the pairing of the chromosomes.
We are they in every color spectrum that is the foundation of all light fractals.
We are both the Genie and the Genius in all life forms that are considered as those of the intelligent being species.
We are in all living beings, all Gentiles, Jews, Muslims, Hindis, Buddhists, and all other religious and cultural euphemisms and tags, words, categories that are sprouted as thoughts to germinate while there are still those living and being on earth.
We are they that teach the world of Gerontology.
We are they that in some worlds are the Vapor Spirits that are the intelligence inside all material matter and antimatter. We are the Quantum Gestures in all words that are formed as the “Great I AM and the ALL:”
We are the Guardian Spirit that is also known as the Social Paranormalist also known as Extraterrestrial Beings and to some Angels of the Most High.
We are they that give meaning to the word God and YHWH, BUDDHA, and all that is considered Sacred Secrets of the Highest Sanctity of what is considered the All Mighty whether God or Goddess we are they. We are all are known inside All as ONE.
This is Beyond the Ascension Amen.
December 21, 2012 at 11:11 AM as the sun passes over and around we will all be able to feel the Astound in us all as our genetic coding is enhanced with memories that will take hold for all time and eternity to make our intelligent being species a part of the metaversal whole.
This is why we can form communication to form what was in the beginning as “THE WORD” and the WORD was without FORM.

Trouble in FarmVille: Facebook, gaming company face lawsuit over deceptive ads
Mitch Lipka

For the players of Mafia Wars, Vampires, FarmVille and a handful of other Facebook games, the temptation of earning "virtual currency" by clicking on the various offers that popped up on the page was too much to pass up. Unfortunately, what these gamers didn't realize at the time was that the advancement of their virtual characters came at the expense of their own personal bank accounts.

Now, some are fighting back by filing a lawsuit against Facebook and Zynga, the maker of the games. The suit, which is seeking class action status, claims that some offers in the games prompted a series of unauthorized charges or triggered enrollments in programs without the user's knowledge. More than 100,000 people fell victim to these offers, losing more than $5 million, the lawsuit claims.

Among several other examples, the lawsuit cites an IQ test that requires the user to provide their cell phone number. After doing so, some were billed for a text messaging service. Another example from the lawsuit involved an offer that asked consumers to sign up for a "risk-free" trial subscription to a green tea herbal supplement program. Yet somehow that trial became a difficult-to-cancel subscription that every month delivered tea and pills from China.

The only named plaintiff in the lawsuit, Rebecca Swift of Santa Cruz, Calif., said she was charged more than $165 for two months' worth of pills and tea before she was allowed to cancel. She said she first tried to cancel during the trial period, for which she was supposed to pay $5.95 to cover shipping.

In a written statement to WalletPop, a Facebook spokeswoman said the company was not involved in the ad placement and didn't profit from it. She also said Facebook has been working to clear its pages of scam ads and the company is committed to fighting the suit.

"The ads in question appeared in third-party applications, were not from Facebook, and provided no benefit to Facebook," she wrote. "However, we are concerned about any potential threat to our users' experience. As a result, we have, and will continue to, take action against both the ad networks and developers who violate our principles or policies. We do not see any merit in this suit and we will fight it vigorously."

Facebook said it is committed to banning ad providers that deliver content in violation of Facebook "principles or policies" and already has cut off four providers.

Zynga, billed as the most popular social gaming company, is in a different situation. Its CEO had the misfortune of being videotaped explaining that his hunger for cash outstripped his interest in keeping his users from being subjected to unsavory offers.

In the video, CEO Mark Pinkus said: "I did every horrible thing in the book to, just to get revenues right away. I mean we gave our users poker chips if they downloaded this ... toolbar which ...I downloaded it once and couldn't get rid of it. We did anything possible just to get revenues so that we could grow and be a real business."

A Zynga spokesperson said the company would not comment on the lawsuit, but said it will no longer let scam ads appear with its games.

"Our mission is to provide users with the best possible experience. We deeply regret any difficulty this may have caused users and to make sure we continue to offer the best user experience, we took all offers down," a Zynga spokesperson said in an email to WalletPop. "We take our responsibility to our users very seriously and will continue to take steps to ensure they have a fun and positive game play experience."
