POPSWall Street's Disaster Has Spawned Our Greatest Terrorist Threat It turns out that Wall Street, rather than Islamic jihad, has produced our most dangerous terrorists. We will see accelerated plant and retail closures, inflation, an epidemic of bankruptcies, new rounds of foreclosures, bread lines, unemployment surpassing the levels of the Great Depression and, as Blair fears, social upheaval.

POPSCO2 Taxes Will Conviscate Billions In Revenue Out Of Thin Air 
Cap & Trade: Political Alchemy, Economy Buster & Disaster for Poor These increased costs will include the heating and cooling of individual American households and an even greater expense will be incurred by businesses. Again, those who will suffer most from Cap & Trade legislation will be the American public. There will be higher expenses at the grocery store, at appliance dealers, hair salons, auto repair shops...it goes on and on. Every business in the United States will see its costs go up significantly, resulting in grossly accelerated inflation, a loss of thousands of jobs in the energy industry alone and other untold millions of Americans will suffer a direct financial impact because of Obama's misguided Cap & Trade legislation. THE REALITIES OF CAP & TRADE UNTESTED Perhaps the greatest misnomer regarding Cap & Trade is the idea America will quickly shift from the use of fossil fuels--like coal, natural gas and fuel oil--

POPSWall Street's Disaster Has Spawned Our Greatest Terrorist Threat The specter of social unrest was raised at the U.S. Army War College in November in a monograph titled "Known Unknowns: Unconventional 'Strategic Shocks' in Defense Strategy Development." The military must be prepared, the document warned, for a "violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States," which could be provoked by "unforeseen economic collapse," "purposeful domestic resistance," "pervasive public health emergencies" or "loss of functioning political and legal order."

POPSThe Statistical Universe - On the Vastness of the universe But inflation does not really make the universe more uniform — just huge. If inflation is correct, then the billions of light-years that our telescopes probe are a mere dot on a far vaster canvas. The multiverse comprises a large number of distinct patches, each far bigger than our night sky. What observers see, therefore, also depends on where they find themselves. Most of the regions in the multiverse are inhospitable to life, and their properties will not be observed. But what exactly is life? In order to extract predictions from the multiverse, my colleagues and I have developed a statistical tool to find regions with observers: We look not for life itself but for the disorder left behind by the complex processes that its formation depends on. To understand the physical signatures of life in this way may help us finally to comprehend our own little corner of the multiverse. Interesting Read.

POPSThe buck doesn't stop here; it just keeps falling Brought to you by our friends at the federal reserve. Imagine that "nutjob" republican who during the debates said he wanted to abolish the federal reserve, stop printing fiat money, and return the US to a sound monetary policy, what a kook, huh! Of course those words were greeted with laughter from McCain, Guiliani, and others! Now I see why...
