		<description>Over the last few months, as data has been released by the National Venture Capital Association, we have spoken about how the venture capital industry struggled in 2009. Though things appear to be returning to normal, 2009 was still a tough year for both VC investments and fund raising. Investor Seth Levine offered his opinion Monday on where he thinks the industry is headed and raised some interesting points on how VC firms will be funded in the future - an issue which could impact the way startups get funding. Sponsor Interestingly enough, according to VentureSource, VCs have been investing more than they have been raising themselves - $14 billion more over the last five years, to be exact. The strange thing is that $9 billion of that difference came in 2009 alone when VCs invested $21 billion but only raised $12 billion for themselves. This is a steep decline from the previous four years which saw fundraising and investment hover around $25 billion. Levine believes that because of...</description>

		<description>my educated guess is that foreign policy is based on internal factors. Even if policy-makers point to seemingly external factors, the decisions are made by their own perceptions and interests regarding those external factors. Based on realist theories, states (and when i say states, i mean countries) act in their own self-interest based on a perceived power struggle. Although their policy may be gaged by international/external events, it is their perception that makes the policy.

You could say that the &quot;war&quot; in Iraq was started based on a perceived threat. Did Saddam Hussein threaten the US in any direct (or even indirect) way? Not really.

I&#039;m not gonna go much further because I can tell by the description this is straight from some kind of assignment, but you can use this as a starting point.</description>

		<description>When it comes to balance sheets, assets, P/E ratios - I&#039;d classify that under analysis, rather than just money management.  Looking &#039;at the books&#039; of a company per se.</description>
