Furthermore, the S.E.C. said that the action was its first against a state, and only it is second against any government over the managing of the fund for public pension. The first was the San Diego city. The agency reported in January that it had a particular unit appearing into pension of public discovery.

In addition, the S.E.C. has been trying to think more power over the securities of municipal. The commission developed its suit with New Jersey by questioning a cease and desist order that the state acknowledged without denying or declaring the answers. However, no penalties were forced.

Moreover, nor did the order of S.E.C. name any person state officials, nor the bond underwriters  and other professionals whose job it was to assure for the financial statements of State of New Jersey. The biggest bond underwriters of New Jersey during the time in inquiry include Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, Barclays Capital, J.P. Morgan Securities, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs.

On the other hand, the S.E.C. stated its action was intended to discourage other governments and their advisers from beating bad economic news in a confusion of pension numbers. In California, New York and other places, advisers for financial have told representatives that profit can be sweetened at almost no cost.

According to Elaine C. Greenberg, S.E.C.’s chief in the public pensions unit and municipal securities, they are hoping that it will send message to other local governments and states. Furthermore, the commission reported that from 2001 to 2007, New Jersey declared to have money reserve in a profit development fund as a part of a five year plan to settle for new benefits for employees of general state and for teachers.

Furthermore, on Wednesday, almost 1.3 million government workers strike and bringing about all necessary services to freeze. The strike arises when talks ruined down over increasing their wages. Moreover, unions had insisted an 8.6 percent increase in their wages, while the negotiators of the government pushed to an increase of simply seven percent, down with a little allowance for housing.

In addition, the Independent Labour Caucus (ILC) and the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) discarded the new offer of the government before taking to the streets. According to secretary general of South African Democratic Teachers Union (SADTU), Mugwene Maluleke, beginning Wednesday, strike for unions of public service until such period that the manager agrees to the needs of the workers.

On the other hand, Reuters said that a amidst level of public servants in South Africa receives almost 8,800 rand ($1,200) every month, compared to the 6,383 rand of the national average wage, yet several economists say that the volume of workers of the government stay underpaid.

However, strikes are annually happen in South Africa, and have become part of their culture for a country governed by a freedom movement, the African National Congress of Nelson Mandela, that takes pleasure from a solid support from labor unions.

Moreover, there is still a strike season, in which all from the police officers to workers of electric utility to members of the Army of the nation march in protest for greater wages. Jacob Zuma, the recent president, said that he himself drove to power in the elections in 2008 on the foundation of support from  the biggest group of unions.

Last Monday, the Obama administration ordered a new policy in creating new and continuing old operations of deep-water drilling across the Gulf of Mexico. Ken Salazar, Inferior Secretary, announced that an environmental impact statement for new deep-water drilling and a new environmental analysis for old operating deep-water drilling are now required for the Gulf of Mexico under the U.S. jurisdiction.

Salazar also added that this is to help provide information to guide future leasing and development decisions. Furthermore, he stressed making this new approach at the National Environmental Protection Act process, as an option to further manage and supervise these offshore activities in light of the increasing levels of complexity and risk, and the consequent potential environmental impacts.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement that manages the nation’s natural gas, oil and other mineral resources and regulates offshore operations will use the information and reports from these additional requirements and hold any accountable to any recurring incidence.

The explosion from the Deep Horizon, a drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico, happened last April 20. The incidence killed 11 workers and poured about 205 million gallons of crude oil into the gulf. The spill was extensive that it reached far across the east of the gulf exposing marine life to toxicity of the oil. Subsequently, US made restrictions on fishing for safety concerns. Eventually, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration and the Gulf states lifted the restrictions in accordance with a temporary solution to the oil spill.

The oil company BP provided measures in managing the oils spills. At the time of the eruption of the oil spill, BP covered the area around the Deep Horizon with more than 1.8 million gallons of chemical dispersants. The chemical will combine with the oil, eventually breaking the oil into droplets small enough that marine microbes can absorb and digest. Moreover, BP managed covering the well in mid-July preventing further oil spills and compensating the victims of the incidence.
