Guest guest Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 || Om Gurave Namah || Dear Jyotishas, Forbes has come up with the list of world's most powerfull men.

Warm Regards, Sanjay P http://www.forbes.com/2009/11/11/worlds-most-powerful-leadership-power-09-people\ _land.html Power has been called many things. The ultimate aphrodisiac. An absolute corrupter. A mistress. A musical instrument. But its true nature remains elusive. After all, a head of state wields a very different sort of power than a religious figure. Can one really compare the influence of a journalist with that of a terrorist? And is power unexercised power at all? In compiling our first ranking of the World's Most Powerful People, we wrestled with these questions--and many more--before deciding to define power by four dimensions. First, do they have influence over lots of other people? Do they control relatively large financial resources compared with their peers? Are they powerful in multiple spheres?.... 1. Barack Obama 2.
