Tarhouni was an exiled activist for three decades and has been overseas mostly in the U.S. He studied at Michigan State University and taught at the University of Washington. He was the first member of the Transitional Council based in Benghazi to go into Misrata at the height of the siege by fishing boat. He was the first member to go into Tripoli and setup offices there. He says damage to oil installations is only about 20% and wants to see oil production back up as soon as possible.

Rents for housing and inflation in the U.S. - 2011-2012
06/09/2011
Rents for housing make up 40% of the core U.S. consumer price index. About 25% of April 2011's 1.3% rise in the CPI in the U.S. was from housing rent increases. Apartment vacancy rates are dropping as people prefer to rent. Analysts say the Fed may not be paying enough attention to this when it says the high unemployment levels will keep inflation down.

Italy's labor laws and the impact on business activity
06/11/2011
Most businesses remain small fearing the risks of taking on new employees because of labor laws that make it very difficult to layoff employees. The president of a large Italian construction company, Condotte, says it is easier to separate from his wife than layoff an employee in Italy.

The recovery of Libya's oil exports and world oil prices- 2011-2014
06/11/2011
The fall of the Gaddafi regime in Libya in August 2011 and restoration of democratic government will lead to a renewal of oil exports. Libya exported 1.5- 1.8 million barrels a day before the war against Gaddafi. The restoration of full production depends on the rebuilding of damaged refineries. This could take upto three years say experts. A psychological boost is not the same as the physical aspect of oil supplies on the ground says one analyst.

Retailers Feel Squeezed on the Margin
Wall Street Journal 06/08/11
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
