The introduction of the study outlines the need for a reference interest rate and introduces one of its most well-known type, the LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) as well as attempts to manipulate it. After this, the paper assesses and provides an overview of the regulatory attempts aimed at reforming the index. In addition, the European and global regulatory environment is also discussed, as well as the tasks to be completed prior to regulation. Finally, recommendations are provided on the Hungarian reference interest rate framework and the establishment of a dedicated working group is also suggested.

The global regulatory environment strongly affects the development of effective medications to treat behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) (Whitehouse, 1998b). Since its inception in 1994, the International Working Group for Harmonization of Dementia Drug Guidelines (IWG) has been working to foster dialogue on dementia drug development among academics, regulators, industry representatives, and patients and their families. In this overview, I describe the IWG's mission, people, and recent activities (Whitehouse, 1998c), and its activities concerning BPSD in several regions throughout the world.

An ideal definition of a reference coordinate system should meet the following general requirements:1. It should be as conceptually simple as possible, so its philosophy is well understood by the users.2. It should imply as few physical assumptions as possible. Wherever they are necessary, such assumptions should be of a very general character and, in particular, they should not be dependent upon astronomical and geophysical detailed theories.3. It should suggest a materialization that is dynamically stable and is accessible to observations with the required accuracy.

The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.

La légionellose, un problème de tourisme? La légionellose est une maladie assez rare, mais elle suit souvent un cours prolongé et compliqué, même chez des patients immunocompétents. Le diagnostic est important pour des raisons thérapeutiques et épidémiologiques. De 1998 à 2001 on a observé à l'hôpital cantonal de Coire six cas de légionellose, dont quatre étaient associés aux voyages et un autre concernait un employé d'un hôtel local. Par suite de l'augmentation de la mobilité internationale les recherches épidémiologiques sur la localisation de la source infectieuse et les procédés hygiéniques deviennent plus difficiles. Une organisation européenne, le «European Working Group for Legionella Infections» (EWGLI/www.ewgli.org) a étudié ce problème. La question de la forme sous laquelle le public doit être informé des sources de légionelles fait l'object d'une discussion.
