Danske Bank Pleads Guilty to Fraud on U.S. Banks in a Multi-Billion Dollar Scheme to Access the U.S. Financial System.
Largest Bank in Denmark Agrees to Forfeit $2 Billion.
Danske Bank A/S (Danske Bank), a global financial institution headquartered in Denmark, pleaded guilty today and agreed to forfeit $2 billion to resolve the United States’ investigation into Danske Bank’s fraud on U.S. banks.
According to court documents, Danske Bank defrauded U.S. banks regarding Danske Bank Estonia’s customers and anti-money laundering controls to facilitate access to the U.S. financial system for Danske Bank Estonia’s high-risk customers, who resided outside of Estonia – including in Russia. The Justice Department will credit nearly $850 million in payments that Danske Bank makes to resolve related parallel investigations by other domestic and foreign authorities. Continues further down.

"In my work dealing with people and dialogue, I have come to learn that many of us are not capable of viewing another human being right in front of ourselves with warmth, empathy and humanness. I believe this defect to be one of several primary causes for disharmony, conflict and war. I call this phenomene, The Coldness Between People." Harald Jan Dahle
Empathy and Humanistic approaches goes hand-in-hand. It is not enough ta want peace and talk peace. One also has to act peace in a humanistic and convincing way.
Conflict solving with the help of emotional intelligence "beyond reason" has been a key issue for me since 1998 when on board the KLM wide body plane from Frankfurt to Dubai a very hostile man from the Middle East threatened to blow up the plane mid air.By activating emotional based negotiation techniques I managed to free the man from his own aggression and ease his him with kind and well ment words It worked ....and the life in the KLM plane got back to normal again.

3) In their book Beyond Reason Roger Fisher and Dan Shapiro identify five core concerns that everyone cares about: autonomy, affiliation, appreciation, status, and role They show us how to use these core concerns to stimulate helpful emotions in negotiations ranging from personal to international.

The Oslo old Municipal Hospital before it was demolished in 2001. It was here at the Surgical Department A with Dr. Cappelen, that I first sold the ARCO lithium cardiac pacemakers, Number 2 on the picture. In the mid 1980'ies I did an extensive research why some biomedical apparatus faulted, sometimes with grave consequences for the patient. The biomedical repair department was located at Number 3 in the picture.
MONITORING PATIENTS HEART RYTHMS IN THE EMERGENCY WARD
I used to take late night, eight hour turns and monitor the patient-screens in the acute emergency ward. The excerices in heart rythms that I received at the ARCO cardiac pacemaker plant in Leechburg Pensylvania, now came to good use. Below is a confirmation of that and my level of salary paid by the Municipal Hospital in Oslo.

Michael Ellis DeBakey (September 7, 1908 – July 11, 2008) was a world-renowned American cardiac surgeon, innovator, scientist, medical educator, and international medical statesman. DeBakey was the chancellor emeritus of Baylor College of Medi- cine in Houston, Texas, director of The Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center, and senior attending surgeon of The Methodist Hospital in Houston.He is known for his work on the treatment of heart patientsand for his role in the development of the Mobile Army Surgical Hospital MASH.

About The Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center
History As Colonel Michael DeBakey, he served on the Surgeon General's Staff during World War II, earned the U.S. Army Legion of Merit Award, and conducted studies that led to the development of mobile army surgical hospitals or MASH units. In 1983, the U.S. Congress approved the construction of a new $246 million replacement facility. Groundbreaking ceremonies were held in 1986.
In mid-1991, MEDVAMC opened the doors of a new state-of-the-art facility located on the same 118-acre site. In recognition of Dr. DeBakey's tireless efforts on behalf of our Nation's Veterans, President George W. Bush signed Public Law 108-170 on Decemb- er 6, 2003 officially changing the name of the facility to the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center.

He was the second person to receive a heart.This heart transplant was also performed by Dr. Christiaan Barnard at the Groote Schuure Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. Below right: Lois Washkansky enjoys his new life
THIS HISTORIC HEART TRANSPLANT WAS MADE POSSIBLE WITH A MEDICAL TEAM OF THIRTY PEOPLE
Barnard performed the world's first human heart transplant operation on 3 December 1967, in an operation assisted by his brother, Marius Barnard. The operation lasted nine hours and used a team of thirty people. The patient, Louis Washkansky, was a 54-year-old grocer, suffering from diabetes and incurable heart disease.
Twenty years later, Marius Barnard recounted, "Chris stood there for a few moments, watching, then stood back and said, 'It works.' Washkansky survived the operation and lived for 18 days. However, he succumbed to pneumonia as he was taking immuno- suppressive drugs. Though the first patient with the heart of another human being survived for only a little more than two weeks, Barnard had passed a milestone in a new field of life-extending surgery.
Barnard later wrote, "For a dying man it is not a difficult decision because he knows he is at the end. If a lion chases you to the bank of a river filled with crocodiles, you will leap into the water, convinced you have a chance to swim to the other side."
DENISE ANN DARVALL, THE WOMAN WHO GAVE HER HEART AND KIDNEYS SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE COULD LIVE
The donor heart came from a young woman, Denise Darvall, who had been rendered brain damaged in an accident on 2 December 1967, while crossing a street in Cape Town.After securing permission from Darvall's father to use her heart, Barnard performed the transplant. Rather than wait for Darvall's heart to stop beating, at his brother, Marius Barnard's urging, Christiaan had injected potassium into her heart to paralyse it and render her technically dead by the whole-body standard.
AROUND THE WORLD DOORS ON THE HIGHEST LEVELS OPENED TO CHRISTIAAN BARNARD, HE WAS A STAR AND HE ENJOYED IT
Barnard was celebrated around the world for his accomplishment. He was photogenic and enjoyed the media attention following the operation. Below: He was invited to the Principality of Monaco. Princess Grace and Christiaan Barnard having a good time on the dance floor.

Barnard performed ten orthotopic transplants (1967–1973). He was the first to perform a heterotopic heart transplant, an operation that he devised. Forty-nine con- secutive heterotopic heart transplants were performed in Cape Town between 1975 and 1984.

A peristaltic pump is a type of positive displacement pump used for pumping a variety of fluids. The fluid is contained within a flexible tube fitted inside a circular pump casing (though linear peristaltic pumps have been made). A rotor with a number of "roll- ers", "shoes", "wipers", or "lobes" attached to the external circumference of the rotor compresses the flexible tube. As the rotor turns, the part of the tube under compre- ssion is pinched closed (or "occludes") thus forcing the fluid to be pumped to move throu- gh the tube.

On the 20th anniversary of the shooting death of pioneering heart surgeon Victor Chang, his son has become an ambassador for the research institute founded in his father's honour.
Dr Chang was gunned down on a street in the northern Sydney suburb of Mosman on July 4, 1991, in a bungled attempt to kidnap him for ransom.
The surgeon carried out Australia's first successful heart transplant in 1984 and was named Australian of the Century in 1999.
