"Merkel, a master tactician when it comes to the politics of power, has been outmanoeuvred for once, and could get into serious trouble as a result," said the influential news magazine Der Spiegel about the upcoming presidential vote. ------
Keller suffered a series of strokes in 1961 and spent the last years of her life at her home. On September 14, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson awarded Helen Keller the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the United States` highest two civilian honors. In 1965 she was elected to the National Women`s Hall of Fame at the New York World`s Fair. Keller devoted much of her later life to raising funds for the American Foundation for the Blind. She died in her sleep on June 1, 1968 at her home, Arcan Ridge, located in Westport, Connecticut. A service was held in her honor at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. and her ashes were placed there next to her constant companions, Anne Sullivan and Polly Thompson.-----
David Kiely, a stockbroker with Macquarie Private Wealth, became an overnight star - and landed himself in hot water - after being filmed looking at revealing pictures of supermodel Miranda Kerr live on television.
The MacBank client investment manager will meet with the bank’s executives this week to determine his future after the video of him perusing Ms Kerr’s assets in the background of a live cross to the Seven Network went viral on YouTube, reports The Australian.
The footage on YouTube has received more than 77,000 hits while the clip on The Daily Telegraph's website has been viewed more than 20,000 times.
Mr Kiely was still employed by the bank today, but a series of meetings with Macquarie’s human resources and senior bank executives are expected to take place this week.
The gaffe occurred when Mr Kiely opened a number of emails containing photographs of Kerr from a recent GQ shoot, while his colleague Martin Lakos was live on air with the Seven Network, discussing the Reserve Bank’s decision to keep interest rates on hold yesterday.
The mistake prompted Macquarie’s human resources unit to email the bank’s 11,500 staff across the world with a copy of its internet policy, which they should “familiarise themselves with”.
handling the post of the president is an honor. but a staggering number of humans went into debt overnight, after which death rates were highest
