An oscilloscope (sometimes abbreviated CRO, for cathode-ray oscilloscope, or commonly just scope) is a piece of electronic test equipment that allows signal voltages to be viewed, usually as a two-dimensional graph of one or more electrical potential differences (vertical axis) plotted as a function of time or of some other voltage (horizontal axis).

James Surowiecki: The commercial paper chase.
James Surowiecki Mon, 13 Oct 2008 04:00:00 -0000
In December, 1912, J. P. Morgan testified before Congress in the so-called Money Trust hearings. Asked to explain how he decided whether to make a loan or investment, he replied, “The first thing is character.” His questioner skeptically suggested that factors like collateral might be more important, but Morgan . . .

Pharmaceuticals: Buying opportunity
Thu, 09 Oct 2008 11:48:13 -0000
Will drugs giants defy the credit crunch and splash out on biotech deals?THE financial crisis means that most lawyers and bankers specialising in mergers and acquisitions are twiddling their thumbs. With confidence shattered and credit hard to come by, deals have dried up in most industries. But not in pharmaceuticals. This week Eli Lilly, a medium-sized American drugs firm, outbid Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS), another middling American rival, for ImClone, a coveted biotechnology firm. Carl Icahn, a billionaire investor who owns a stake in ImClone, had noisily dismissed an earlier offer from BMS at a price of $62 per share as inadequate. He then claimed that a mystery bidder had emerged offering $70 a share—51% above the share price on July 30th, before BMS made its offer. When Lilly confirmed that his claim was no bluff, and put forward an all-cash, $70-per-share offer worth $6.5 billion, BMS bowed out.Many are wondering why Lilly is paying so much for ImClone. Roger Longman of Windhover, an industry consultancy, puts it bluntly: “This deal does not seem economically sensible.” Because BMS will keep the North American marketing rights for Erbitux, ImClone’s blockbuster cancer drug, much of the firm’s current revenue will not go to the buyer. Lilly has its eye on the biotech firm’s promising pipeline of drugs, but there too BMS thinks it has rights to some of the revenue from any successor to Erbitux—a claim Lilly is sure to dispute. ...
Bankruptcies: Shutting up shop
Thu, 09 Oct 2008 11:48:13 -0000
The long-feared surge in bankruptcies in America is now under wayTHE Sharper Image store on Manhattan’s West 57th Street is sharp no more: its last state-of-the-art massage chairs and stylish humidifiers have been put in storage and its windows papered over. A few doors away, the assistant in the Sharper Image-like Brookstone shop seems unusually desperate to make a sale. In between, huge posters adorn the storefront of Metropolitan, an antique shop, proclaiming that it is “Going Out of Business”. The economic downturn has struck at the heart of the world’s shopping capital, and not even the influx of foreigners taking advantage of the weak dollar has been enough to save Sharper Image or its neighbour. Unlike the fashion houses along the street, neither was helped by the fact that their big-ticket items could not easily be carried onto a plane. But even Bergdorf Goodman, a nearby luxury department store, reported weak sales in August. ...
India's car industry: A new home for the Nano
Thu, 09 Oct 2008 11:48:13 -0000
Protesters force Tata Motors to abandon a car factory in West BengalEACH year India’s Bengalis celebrate the goddess Durga, offering prayers before dazzling religious tableaux called pandals. This year Santosh Mitra square in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) hosted an unusual example: a yellow replica of the Nano, the small car touted by Tata Motors as the world’s cheapest. It stood in front of a forlorn factory (pictured), made of plywood, fibreglass and plaster, and girdled by a huge padlock and chain. Alas, the Nano will not be built in West Bengal. On October 3rd Ratan Tata, chairman of the Tata Group, said his firm would abandon its factory in the state, which has been pinned down for months in “political crossfire”.The Nano is an icon of Indian ingenuity and entrepreneurialism. Selling for just 100,000 rupees ($2,100), it seeks to reach a new class of customers through frugal engineering. But India’s politicians also have a keen eye for a gap in the market. Mamata Banerjee, leader of the main opposition party in West Bengal, drummed up a campaign on behalf of farmers who opposed the project. Many had refused the compensation the state government offered when it hurriedly expropriated their land to make room for the Tata Motors plant. Whatever the justice of its cause, the campaign became shrill and intimidating. It has undone West Bengal’s efforts to court industrial investment, and may have done wider damage to India’s reputation. If the Tatas, one of India’s most venerable business houses, cannot build a factory without political grief, why should foreign investors take the risk? ...
