| Skeptic Bible Study: Baby Jesus |
 |
http://www.godvsthebible.com
It's Christmas time again and that means
we'll be seeing the nativity scene with "baby
Jesus". So, if the Trinitarian view is to be
taken seriously, that means this baby was
supposed to be God, right? This begs some
rather interesting questions...

| An Otter Study (1912) |
 |
Watching this recently unearthed treasure is
all the more amazing when you realise the
footage itself was shot as long ago as 1912.
The surviving version of the film you see
here was re-edited in the 1920s and titled
The Otter, with a final hunting scene
removed. Intertitles tell us all about the
habits of this fascinating creature,
alongside the first known shots of an otter
swimming underwater. We even get to see the
cameramen setting up their special tank in
the river for filming these scenes.
Just think otter fans -- this furry fellow is
almost a century old! (Simon McCallum)

| IBM Study: Corporate Social Responsibility |
 |
Placing an added emphasis on corporate social
responsibility and ensuring it is at the core
of a business' strategy can yield financial
benefits, according to a study from IBM. The
survey, "Attaining Sustainable Growth Through
Corporate Social Responsibility," indicates
many companies now view CSR as a growth
opportunity and not just a regulatory
compliance. Sixty-eight percent of those
surveyed say they are using CSR activities to
help generate revenue. In addition, many
companies also view these types of
initiatives as a way to gain a competitive
advantage and access new business
opportunities. Increased awareness by
consumers on issues from climate change to
product safety is, in part, driving corporate
concern for these issues, according to the
survey. In turn, the increased visibility of
corporate behavior is influencing consumers'
decisions on what to buy and who to buy from,
who to work for, who to partner with and
where to invest. The survey is based on
responses from top executives at more than
250 companies worldwide.
