The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air. John Holdren told The Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed.
One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.
"Thank you for that wonderful tribute to Henry Kissinger yesterday. Congratulations. As the most recent National Security Advisor of the United States, I take my daily orders from Dr. Kissinger, filtered down through Generaal Brent Scowcroft and Sandy Berger, who is also here. We have a chain of command in the National Security Council that exists today.
“I’d rather retire before I do this again,” Iverson said. “I can’t be effective playing this way. I’m not used to it. It’s tough for me both mentally and physically. If I’m able to go out there, I should be able to get it done and I can’t right now. It’s my fault. I have to be able to overcome the adversity and do what I have to do. I just have to find a way to get it done. Not being 100 percent makes it harder and you can see that I’m not 100 percent.”
Here is a link to all the stories from TODAY only that suddenly "acknowledge" the New World Order. For years, they have said it did not exist, but now suddenly every media outlet has received their marching orders to tout it as a great benefit to the world.
I guess this validates what the "crazy conspiracy theorists" like myself have been saying for years. Will people finally believe that the bankers intend to bankrupt this country (almost there), incite regional violence to further tighten the police state, engineer a fraudulent environmental agenda to further drain our pockets with carbon cap and trade taxes, round-up any people who disagree with their plans and kill off 75-80% of the rest of us through pandemics, vaccines and war?
Oh Joe, you're always reading too much into this. Why don't you watch some TV and drink some fluoridated water (FLUORIDE STUPIDITY)? The bankers have to do all of this in order to save us from ourselves, because a few unqualified people got subprime mortgages that have destroyed the world economy. Everything will be alright. Just give it time and the bankers more and more money!
Hogwash! If you have that faith in these evil bankers and the government, then I know you are happy with the fact you (and your kids and grandkids) now each owe over $42,000 in connection with the $12.8 trillion bailout and stimulus (BLOOMBERG SAYS $12.8 TRILLION), and worldwide we each owe $190,000 in connection with the $1.5 quadrillion derivatives bubble ($1.5 QUADRILLION IN DERIVATIVES). It's only going to get worst! Another $1.2 trillion deficit in our budget for the upcoming year (U.S. BUDGET $1.2 TRILLION DEFICIT). Enjoy the chaos!
All these bankers need to be indicted and arrested immediately for grand theft instead of being given more money and power! Of course it is not over, but the time we have been talking about for years is now at hand. Spend time with your family! Tell them you love them and get ready for the ride! May God bless us all through these trying times!

The National Emergency Centers Act or HR 645 mandates the establishment of “national emergency centers” to be located on military installations for the purpose of to providing “temporary housing, medical, and humanitarian assistance to individuals and families dislocated due to an emergency or major disaster,” according to the bill.
The legislation also states that the camps will be used to “provide centralized locations to improve the coordination of preparedness, response, and recovery efforts of government, private, and not-for-profit entities and faith-based organizations”.
Ominously, the bill also states that the camps can be used to “meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security,” an open ended mandate which many fear could mean the forced detention of American citizens in the event of widespread rioting after a national emergency or total economic collapse.
But Percovich has raised the money needed to build an 800-square-meter, or 8,600-square-foot, bubble to house the nonprofit Skateistan complex, and the Kabul Parks Authority has tentatively donated land. He is still waiting for official permission to begin the project. Since a spate of kidnappings and the car bombing in November, he has reduced his daily sessions at the fountain to once or twice a week.
Until last week, Carol M. Browner, President-elect Barack Obama's pick as global warming czar, was listed as one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for "global governance" and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change.
A new government regulation scheduled to take effect next month has thousands of retailers, thrift stores and small businesses worried they will be forced to permanently close their doors – and destroy their merchandise.
The law is expected to have such a devastating impact that Feb. 10 is now unofficially known as "National Bankruptcy Day."
Congress passed the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, or HR 4040, a retroactive rule mandating that all items sold for use by children under 12 must be tested by an independent party for lead and phthalates, which are chemicals used to make plastics more pliable.
The European Commission condemned the cuts as "completely unacceptable". In an unusually strongly worded statement, it demanded that Russia restore supplies "immediately".
Russia ordered a reduction in gas flow to Europe via Ukraine on Monday, a measure it said was to stop its neighbour from stealing fuel. Ukraine said the move would jeopardise supplies to the rest of Europe, which is facing freezing temperatures.
In response to public outcry, the ambitious proposal to create the Trans-Texas Corridor network has been dropped and will be replaced with a plan to carry out road projects at an incremental, modest pace, a state transportation official announced today.
"The Trans-Texas Corridor, as it is known, no longer exists," said Amadeo Saenz Jr., executive director of the Texas Department of Transportation, at the agency's annual forum in Austin.
Now the people just have to make sure that this project is not restarted under a new name.
