Canada's chief public health officer expressed deep concern about a swine influenza outbreak gripping Mexico and the southwestern United States as health officials around the world went on high alert for a potential global flu pandemic.

"This is very concerning, clearly. That's why we're all paying attention," David Butler-Jones said yesterday. "What it will lead to is impossible to predict."

Swine flu outbreak international 'public health emergency': WHO
Tags: SCIENCE/HEALTH/CLIMATE/NATURE
Calling the swine flu outbreak in Mexico and the United States a "public health emergency of international concern," the World Health Organization asked countries around the world Saturday to step up their reporting and surveillance of influenza.

The move signals that the WHO fears the outbreak could spread to other countries and is calling for a co-ordinated international response to contain it.

Gov. Rick Perry Saturday asked the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for 37,430 courses of antiviral medications from the Strategic National Stockpile as a precaution after three cases of swine flu were confirmed in Texas

Atlantic cooling may presage Arctic ice increase

Atlantic cooling may presage Arctic ice increase

 

Recent satellite observations from the Arctic indicate that spring ice melting is beginning at a lower rate than normal this year. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, the area of ice-covered ocean has decreased only about 750,000 km2 from its peak value at the end of February, compared to a normal decline of 1.1 million km2 by late April. If this trend continues, the annual ice melt in 2009 may be less than in recent years, and the late summer Arctic ice extent may rebound from its well-publicized downtrend.

My comment:

We are on the threshold of one of the greatest destructive moments in fiscal history as the power of Government will be altered tremendously by the taxation of energy, the fuel of free enterprise.  All this is being done at a time when the earth goes into a cooling phase that could equal that of the 1700's known as the Mini Ice Age. 

The sun is at a very calm stage of existence this moment, be so to equal the lack of sunspots during the late 1600's and early 1700,s.  As the earth cools, carbon will deplenish, making for yet cooler atmosphere and less plant growth thus lowering the agricultural production. 

We will need all sources of energy to sustain life on the planet to include the green technology that is in metropolitan areas making leaps in energy conservation.  But the cost of alternative energy to Oil is very expensive and not yet perfected.  Nuclear is gaining ground in safety and the possibility of small contained units in communities the size of suitcases buried under ground are attainable now.  Yet we must draw on carbon from the earth to gain on our existence.  To not do so is more then foolish, it is a threat to life itself.  We need the energy to survive and the earth needs the carbon to keep itself warm by promoting a healthy vegetation thus heat from living mass.

Do not allow this coming tax on energy become law.  Al Gore wants both the huge cap and trade tax as well as using the carbon tax to distribute wealth based on some bureaucrat's policy and in Al Gores case, he is corporately exposed to be one of those money changers for carbon tax distribution.  Just say NO!

Dave Ramsey's Town Hall of Hope was fanstatcally encouraging!! He said This economy is bad but not hopeless. We need to put our Hope in the power of GOD working through people, to take personal responsibility, keep working hard, share and give encouragement to others. Work like it depends on you, pray believing and knowing it depends on GOD! Don't give into fear, put your hope in the hoping place— JESUS!

Three things to get our hope back: 1. Keep moving toward something — don't just sit and stew waiting for things to change. 2. Don't hang around losers or partiipate in loser talk. 3. Start giving again! Let's give the government out of business!

Don't spend money if you don't have it!
Americans need to learn one simple word: NO!
Slow and steady always wins! The tortooise always wins every time!!
Failure, if it is chasing you can run you to excellence!
The best place to go is to work!
You can pray while you're working!
Your raise is effective when you are!
Those who plow— keep plowing!
You can be sincere and still be stupid!
Pay for investment first—don't expect the profit from investment to pay for them.
Use small hometown credit unions for your banking needs—not national banks.
Don't buy a house if your broke—(that's why they call them real estate brokers)— Murphy will move in and bring his cousins, Desperation and Stupid.
Economists are her to give weather forecasters a good name.
This economy is bad but not hopeless. It is still way better than the Great Depression. There were real bread lines then and people didn't fly in asking for help on a Gulf Stream jet. The stock market dropped 90% then. Now it has only dropped 50%. Fear does not represent reality. In order to pass many programs, False Evidence Appearing Real is being heavily pushed.
Our hope and help doesn't come from DC, it comes from ALMIGHTY GOD.
Deut 31:8 The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

Obama calls for New World Order Regime=2nd Declaration of Independence

The most chilling words since 'New World Order'

On March 6, 1991, President George Herbert Walker Bush, at the conclusion of the Persian Gulf War, uttered some words that shivered down the spines of Americans who appreciated their country as an independent, sovereign experiment in constitutional self-government.

"Now, we can see a new world coming into view – a world in which there is the very real prospect of a New World Order," he said.

He went on to expand on this idea, explaining that he envisioned the United Nations freed "to fulfill the historic vision of its founders."

In 1991, that was scary talk. It sounded like Bush had forgotten what America represented in the world – a nation founded on the principles of independence, the rule of law and accountability to the people, rather than just one of many states responsible to a global community that didn't share its ideals.

Last weekend, speaking in Prague, Barack Obama took the New World Order rhetoric to soaring new heights.

"All nations must come together to build a stronger, global regime," he said.

While Bush's earlier phrase set off alarms in some circles, it was ambiguous enough to allow for plausible deniability that he actually intended to work toward some sort of "world government." Obama's choice of words leaves little doubt about what he means.

Though few have so far questioned his desire "to build a stronger, global regime," the words are clear.

Let's consult the Random House dictionary for the definition of "regime."

  1. a mode or system of rule or government: a dictatorial regime.
  2. a ruling or prevailing system.
  3. a government in power.
  4. the period during which a particular government or ruling system is in power.

How about the American Heritage dictionary?

  1. a form of government: a fascist regime.
  2. a government in power; administration: suffered under the new regime.
  3. the period during which a particular administration or system prevails.

Not only are the definitions clear, so are the connotations. They are uniformly negative for those who support liberty, accountability, limited government and the will of the people operating under the rule of law.

Few freedom-minded people would choose to live under any kind of "regime." In America, we are supposed to live under a decentralized form of government in which most powers are reserved to the states. We are supposed to be a self-governing people, not only free from the shackles of government oppression and dictates, but actually the masters of our own governments. We are supposed to be sovereign individuals with our interests protected by the rule of law. And we are supposed to be independent of foreign interests and rules.

So why would any American seek to be a part of building "a stronger, global regime"? The very idea should be anathema to all of us. Yet, the notion is being championed by none other than the president of the United States.

Worse yet, the idea is receiving little scrutiny and even less criticism.

What has become of Americans?

Are we just too fat, lazy and stupid to recognize the threats to our most cherished and basic freedoms?

Are we doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past?

Do we not recognize what has made America great and different from all other nations in the world?

Are we really ready to give up our liberty so easily?

For what did our forefathers sacrifice? Why were they willing to risk their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor for independence and liberty? Why are we ready to give up our independence and liberty for nothing?
