POPSIran Buys Wheat From US For 1st time in 27 years. Capitalist Americans at work I guess. However, I hope they are charging an arm & a leg OR we are using some better bargaining chips. As Americans, we've bent over backwards to do our best to see that the *average* population does not suffer because of the policies of it's government; however....when does the benefactor say "stop biting the hand that feeds you"?

POPSFarmer's Almanac Predicts Frigid Winter of '08-/09 This prediction has more intelligence than all the pseudo scientists employed by the loony left. For the sun is taken into consideration. Gather up your woolies folks, and let's hope Algore freezes his arse off in his obscene energy wasting mansion.

POPSOil Supply Increases, Oil Price Increases Proof again supply is not the problem driving prices on oil and gas. Note this happens as the oil laden Caspian region (Russia, Georgia, etc.) comes into play with war and rumors of war--and particularly as Condi Rice (former exec at Chevron) goes around heightening US rhetoric against Russia and signing provocatory missile agreements with its satellite states. It is not actual supply so much as perceived supply which is effected by wars and "geopolitical" tensions and factors . Change the (neoconservative) war policy, prices will drop.

POPSUK Recession is Months Away Not surprising news. But a chance to reflect on the past 18 months. First, there was denial of an economic slowdown. Then the idea of recession was laughed at. Now the discussion is of whether the recession will be a big one or a little one. Interesting contemporary case study of how the rhetoric of denial runs parallel to the realities.

POPSSurge for the Dollar Despite Global Fears The dollar surged to a two-year high against the pound and a six-month peak against the euro on Friday, as fears about spreading economic gloom triggered a sell-off in commodities. Against sterling, the US currency notched up its 11th consecutive day of gains – its longest uninterrupted rise in more than 35 years – as markets became increasingly convinced that the US was best-placed to weather the global downturn. The Reuters-Jefferies CRB index, a benchmark for commodities, fell more than 2.5 per cent to its lowest level since late March. The index has fallen almost 20 per cent since an all-time high in July, but is still 22 per cent higher than a year ago.
