Japan's stocks slipped and the yen hit a seven-week high on Thursday on unease that Friday's U.S. employment picture may reflect a slower recovery than investors have priced into markets, raising uncertainty about riskier assets.

A year on, Reuters cameraman still held by U.S. army
09-02-2009  •  Reuters 
On Sept. 2, 2008, U.S. and Iraqi troops smashed in the doors of Iraqi journalist Ibrahim Jassam's home, shouting "freeze" and holding back snarling dogs before they hauled him off into the night in his underwear.

A year later, neither Jassam and his family nor global news agency Reuters, which employed him as a freelance TV cameraman and photographer, have been told exactly why he has been detained for all this time by U.S. military forces in Iraq.

That's a stretch: states seek to regulate yogis
09-02-2009  •  Reuters 

About 50 yogis gathered in New York recently to discuss hiring a lobbyist and raise funds to fight a state proposal to require certification of yoga teacher training programs -- a move they say would unfairly cost them money.

"It has brought us under one roof," said Fara Marz, who held the gathering at his Om Factory yoga studio in New York. "And this shows that yogis can be vicious, political, together."

The Revolt of the Masses Electorates are casting a global no-confidence vote in their leaderships.
09-02-2009  •  WSJ 
When the political world arrives at the point where even the Japanese rise up to toss a party from office after almost 54 years in power, it's time to see something's happening here, Mr. Jones. The ever-entertaining Karl Marx described a society's least politically engaged people as the lumpen proletariat. Well, it's beginning to look as if the globe's lumpen proletariat has decided they've had about enough of the lumpen bureaucratariat. It could be a revolution under way, though not the one predicted by the boys at the barricades. To Mr. Marx, the lumpen proletariat (often slurred into a single word, lumpenproletariat) was the most marginalized, hopeless, faceless swath of the underclass. Were he alive at this moment, it is not beyond imagining that Karl would have joined the charge against what has become a lumpen bureaucratariat"the permanent, often faceless overclass of gerrymandered politicians, bureaucrats for life and the public unions and special i  Read Full Story

Circumcision for All; Free Choice for None
09-02-2009  •  Lew Rockwell 
I was shocked, surprised, and flabbergasted to hear it. I’m sure that you'll never believe it, either. The federal government is " get this, readers " butting into your most personal and private business. OK, you’ve caught me in a rare moment of sarcasm. Maybe I wasn't really that surprised. After all, government bureaucrats attempt to control what types of substances you put into your body, what kind of work you do with your body, and even how you can legally dispose of your body after death; it makes perfect sense that they would also scramble for power over what parts of your body should remain attached. Yes, that’s right. The CDC is now considering a campaign for universal circumcision in the US. The reason for pushing this one-size-fits-all policy stems from the results of several studies, all done in Africa, which have demonstrated the benefits of male circumcision for reducing the transmission of HIV.  Read Full Story

A Florida man born without arms says a Tampa bank would not let him cash a check because he couldn’t provide a thumbprint.

Several Seattle-area Somali immigrants are suing local police agencies, claiming they were wrongly rounded up in a massive sweep for khat done in conjunction with the DEA. Khat is a mild euphoric stimulant that’s usually chewed in leaf form. It’s illegal in the U.S. but ubiquitous throughout Africa, and common in U.S. cities with large East African immigrant populations.

What is BO smoking???
09-02-2009  •  BlueLoriBlogSpot 
It seems these stories finally start to emerge after the damage is done. Did you realize the White House "Prediction" (what is he a fortune teller?) of $9.05 Trillion is based on the ASSumptions of a brisk economy for ten years? What is he smoking? According to Pimco (Allianz) we are looking at a sorry state of affairs for 10 to 20 years. I am sure he is being optimistic on that since it is in a report to investors. "Well, the surprise is that there’s been a significant break in that growth pattern, because of delevering, deglobalization, and reregulation. All of those three in combination, to us at PIMCO, means that if you are a child of the bull market, it’s time to grow up and become a chastened adult; it’s time to recognize that things have changed and that they will continue to change for the next " yes, the next 10 years and maybe even the next 20 years.   Read Full Story

TARP CEOs Make More Money Than Almost Everyone Else
09-02-2009  •  The Business Insider 
Being the CEO of a bank that got bailed out was pretty rewarding before the crisis. And even after the government rescue, the rewards to the guy at the top only dropped by one-third. The top five execs at ten of the top 20 TARP banks have enjoyed a combined increase in the value of their stock options of nearly $90 million in the past year, which is better than being the chief exec at an S&P 500 company. (TARP CEOs' comp is 37% higher than that S&P average.)   Read Full Story

BREAKING SCANDAL: Obama Caught Sending Stimulus Money Offshore Barack Obama said the Waxman-Markey carbon tax would help create “green energy” jobs in the U.S. He is now using taxpayer dollars to fund jobs in Spain. by Bill Levinson Barack Obama sold the Waxman-Markey “American Clean Energy and Security Act” to Congress and the American people by saying that investment in so-called “green energy” would create millions of high-wage American manufacturing jobs. We received an E-mail from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (nonpartisan professional organization) that exposed Barack Obama as a blatant prevaricator who is shamelessly using our tax dollars to create jobs not in the United States but in foreign countries. We wonder what rank and file union members"not union bosses who, to paraphrase Henry Ford, have never worked in a shop and whose ambition is to never have to work in a shop, but blue collar workers who actually put in eight hours of honest work every day"will do to   Read Full Story

Hemp ethanol will only cost 15 cents per liter or 50 cents per gallon!
09-02-2009  •  Current 
I was just watching Jodie and Marc walking through the hemp field and I thought it would be a good time to share my hemp ethanol research with y'all! In this day of oil wars, peak oil (and the accompanying soaring prices), climate change and oil spills such as the Exxon-Valdez, it's more important than ever to promote sustainable alternatives such as hemp ethanol. Hemp turns out to be the most cost-efficient and valuable of all the fuel crops! And as it turns out, the whole reason for hemp prohibition - and alcohol prohibition - may have been a fuel monopoly! So check out my hemp ethanol research ... and leave your comments here so I can find out what you think! Here's the link: http://hemp-ethanol.blogspot.com/  Read Full Story
