U.S. House of Representative Alan Grayson led a Congressional delegation that just happened to be in Niger at the time of the recent military coup last Thursday that deposed the legitimate elected government of the Uranium-rich nation.

MARKETS/ECONOMICS

The euro has become another "subprime" currency, afflicted by debts, funny bookkeeping, regulatory failure and widespread street protests in Greece and Spain. It's ironic that more violence-prone Americans didn't hit the streets, and throw rocks, when their living standards were sliced dramatically. Not yet anyway.
 
Despite bailouts, Fannie & Freddie continue to lose billions
 
Close to 3,000 banks are currently classified as having a risky concentration of commercial real estate loans, according to a recent report by the Congressional Oversight Panel (COP). All of them are small to mid-sized banks, already weakened by the financial crisis.

As you shall see below, there is no way in the world that Barack Obama should have ever said that ‘a second depression is no longer a possibility’. In fact, as the U.S. financial system continues to crumble, it is likely that those words will be exploited by his political adversaries again and again. If you are a politician and you are going to issue a guarantee, you had better be able to deliver the goods. In this case, Obama is making a promise that defies all of the economic data.

This article reframes "hope" and "faith" and urges us to move beyond the passivity of hoping that something external will make things better and encourages us to make friends with our despair as a catalyst to authentic change.~ By Carolyn Baker
Liberalism, atheism, male sexual exclusivity linked to IQ
Evolutionary psychologist Satoshi Kanazawa at the the London School of Economics and Political Science correlated data on these behaviors with IQ from a large national U.S. sample and found that, on average, people who identified as liberal and atheist had higher IQs. This applied also to sexual exclusivity in men, but not in women. The findings will be published in the March 2010 issue of Social Psychology Quarterly.
 
Attack of the GMOs: GMO Alfalfa Will Make Organic Dairy Impossible
The USDA and Secretary Vilsack, in collaboration with Monsanto, are about to lift a court-ordered ban on Monsanto's genetically modified (GM) "Roundup Ready" alfalfa. This GMO would have disastrous effects on US and global agriculture. Genetically engineered alfalfa would be the first perennial GM crop, and would result in a huge increase of toxic RoundUp in the environment.
