Article Abstract:

Individual donors, rather than corporations are contributing substantial amounts towards 2004's presidential campaigns. Supporters of presidential candidates can participate in the campaigns by donating online and with the imposition of the 2002 Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, the amount that an individual could contribute increased from $1,000 to $2,000.

Futurism is dead

Article Abstract:

Futurism, which is not about telling the future, but about examining trends and fleshing out scenarios, is dooming, as the trend-watching pontificator has become obsolete. The surplus of niche consultants and a booming field called risk analysis, which uses proven actuarial methods, have also contributed to the downfall of futurism.
