Sudan Crisis
The look on this child's face says it all.While the media is busy covering Iran Iraq Afghanistan etc. No one has bothered to show to the world what is happening in the rest of the world .For the past 5 the conlict has been raging on in Darfur.It has so far claimed 450,000 lives and displaced around 2 million ,along with that it has left around 4 million people dependent on outside aid.
This conflict has made Sudan the most unstable nation of the world.This has made Sudan to allow more peace keeping forces on its soil.

Working of Stock Exchange
A stock exchange, share market or bourse is a corporation or mutual organization which provides facilities for stock brokers and traders, to trade company stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges also provide facilities for the issue and redemption of securities, as well as, other financial instruments and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. The securities traded on a stock exchange include: shares issued by companies, unit trusts and other pooled investment products and bonds. To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it has to be listed there. Usually there is a central location at least for record keeping, but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, as modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantages of speed and cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is by members only. The initial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary market and subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is often the most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock markets is driven by various factors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks.
There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must stock be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange or over the counter. This is the usual way that bonds are traded. Increasingly, stock exchanges are part of a global market for securities.
