Economics, social science concerned with the production, distribution, exchange, and consumption
of goods and services. Economists focus on the way in which individuals, groups, business enterprises,
and governments seek to achieve efficiently any economic objective they select. Other fields of study
also contribute to this knowledge: Psychology and ethics try to explain how objectives are formed;
history records changes in human objectives; sociology interprets human behavior in social contexts.

Eeyore ponders a new career.
"Actually," Eeyore continued, "I'm thinking about a new career myself - personal growth and whatnot, and et ceteras, you know. I'm considering becoming an economist. Actually I didn't think of that myself. Owl suggested that I might be suited for it. He said someone called Thomas Carlyle said economics was the Dismal Science. That sounds most interesting."

Nokia says phones will squash mp3 players

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6448213/did/11941285/?GT1=7935

excerpts:

"Nokia produced 100 million camera phones in 2005. "

"Among famous photo industry players, Konica Minolta Holdings Inc. said in January it would withdraw from the business and Agfa-Gevaert sold its once famous photographic arm in 2004."

click and see how many music handsets Nokia made... and we'd like you to comment on Vanjoki's viewpoint.
