Minsk, Belarus: July 4th, 2007, Viaden Media became a full member of International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). Viaden Media, member of W3C and a High Technologies Park of Belarus, is the first and the only Belarusian company-member of ICC.

ICC is the most influential, popular and trustworthy international non-governmental organization that works to promote and support global trade and globalization processes. ICC membership groups thousands of companies, such as British American Tabacco, IBM, Mitsubishi, Occidental Petroleum, Pirelli, Pfizer, Shell, Thomas Cook, etc., of every size in over 130 countries worldwide. They represent a broad cross-section of business activity including manufacturing, trade, services and the professions. Through membership of ICC, companies shape rules and policies that stimulate international trade and investment. These companies in turn count on the prestige and expertise of ICC to get business views across to governments and intergovernmental organizations, such as WTO, U.N.O. and others, whose decisions affect corporate finances and operations worldwide. ICC has direct access to national governments worldwide through its national committees among others, making helpful suggestions on how to create the most favourable climate for international business development.

ICC contributes significantly by creating a wide range of documents to control activity in all economic spheres. Incoterms, standard trade definitions most commonly used in international sales contracts, can be considered the brightest example of ICC activity. A significant function of the International Chamber of Commerce is also the preparation and promotion of its Uniform Customs and Practice Documentary Credits (UCP), a set of rules on the issuance and use of letters of credit. The UCP has substantially universal effect. Devised and published by the International Chamber of Commerce, Incoterms, UCP along with other ICC rules are at the heart of world trade.

International Chamber of Commerce also serves as an advocate of world business in the global economy. The ICC International Court of Arbitration is the most respected service of its kind in the world. Its voluntary rule-writing for business spreads best practice in areas as varied as banking, marketing, anti-corruption and environmental management. Their policy-making and advocacy work keeps national governments, the United Nations system and other global bodies apprised of the views of the world business on some of the most pressing issues of the day.

Victor Prokopenya, Viaden Media СEO, is sure it is essential for the company to keep up to date and to take an active part in international commerce development. The point is that with members who are users and providers of information technology and electronic services from both developed and developing countries, ICC provides the ideal platform to develop global voluntary rules and best practices for these areas. Dedicated to the expansion of cross-border trade, ICC champions liberalization of telecoms and development of infrastructures that support global online trade and the integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) for economic growth and social development.

MOSCOW, June 27, 2007 – Luxoft and Viaden Media met in Moscow to discuss the most efficient ways of using cluster technologies when developing web projects.

Server clusters provide high availability for more complex, stateful applications and services by allowing the failover of resources. Server clusters also maintain client connections to applications and services. Server clusters, which use the Cluster service, maintain data integrity and provide failover support and high availability for mission-critical applications and services on your back-end servers, including databases, messaging systems, and file and print services. Organizations can use server clusters to make applications and data available on multiple servers that are linked together in a server cluster configuration.

A member of the prestigious World Wide Web Consortium, the international consortium working to develop Web standards, Viaden Media has a unique experience in the development and promotion of web projects. Early this year Viaden Media was admitted into the High Technologies Park of Belarus.

Luxoft is a global software development company headquartered in Russia, with offices in the US, Canada, UK and Ukraine. Luxoft has established itself as a premium service provider of high end complex outsourcing services focusing on new product engineering, application development and embedded systems development. It has demonstrated deep technical expertise, vertical domain experience and strict adherence to stringent quality and security standards.

Both companies hope to gain efforts and persuade the specialists to use cluster technologies when developing web projects.

The highest appeals court in France, Cour de Cessation, has ruled against the French state-sponsored sports betting monopoly, Paris Mutuel Urbain, in a landmark case.

The appeals court handed down its ruling yesterday in its review of sanctions brought against Zeturf, a company trying to break into the online gambling on horse racing market. The online gambling news website GamingIntelligenceGroup.com reported Cour de Cessation as determining that the French gambling monopoly can only be legitimate if it part of a crime prevention initiative.

The ruling is in line with the legal opinion of the European Commission, which has publicly stated their position in regards to state-sponsored gambling monopolies within the European Union. To ensure the free movement of services within the EU, the rules only allow member states to prohibit gambling companies from operating within their borders if they are trying to ensure public health through protection from crime. They cannot prevent foreign gambling companies from accessing their citizens if that prevention is only to protect a state-sponsored gambling company from competition. The EC has stated any restrictions on gambling must be applied in a systematic and coherent fashion. (more…)

1. When your English professor says the author made his point; you ask if he pressed or not.

2. You show up early at the bakery to take advantage of the hot rolls.

3. You go into a 7-11 and ask to play the “don’t.”

4. You go to a hockey game and wonder what happened to the dealers and boxman.

5. When your kid says math “came easy” today, you ask if it was a 4,6,8 or 10.

6. When an ambulance passes with flashing lights, you assume someone hit a “hand pay.”

7. You go into a shoe store and ask if they have 4, 6, or 8 deck.

8. You hear the bible story where Lazarus is told to “Come out”, and you ask for a 2-way C & E.

9. You wonder if a salad shooter is really a gambling device.

10. When the bartender asks if you want a “double”, you say not against an ace.

Regulating Internet poker could potentially bring the US government some $3.3 billion in annual taxes, according to a study to be released in summer 2006, ahead of an anticipated debate over legislation to ban online gambling.

Income taxes on winnings from Internet poker alone — which is estimated to have attracted $60 billion in wagers worldwide in 2005 — could amount to $2.5 billion each year, according to the study commissioned by the Poker Players Alliance, a group calling for the regulation of online gambling.
