While the multitudes debate over whether an economic recovery is coming to the United States, signals sound loudly in harsh tones. While they point to the recent rise in the USDollar, signals sound loudly in harsh tones. Admittedly the signals are confusing, but they are important. The long-term bond yield for USTreasurys threatens the 4.0% mark. The crude oil price is close to threatening the $100 mark. Sleepy financial market anchors and mavens offer comment, but might miss altogether the significance of the signals. The signals clearly mean great strain on the credit markets still, and gradual decay of the major currencies led by the USDollar.

“Local beekeepers claim 90% of Moray’s wild honeybee colonies have been wiped out since 2007.”
With all due respect, “poor weather, bad management, a bee mite called varroa and pesticides” are unlikely to produce such a dramatic effect in so short a time. There has to be a new element and none of these is. The density and extent of electrosmog has increased exponentially in recent years and its impact on bees has long been known. The Moray beekeepers are aware of this factor but are discreetly, and perhaps wisely, failing to mention it such is the unpopularity of this thesis amongst certain powerful vested interests.

I have been constantly investigated by the GMC since 2001. During this time the GMC have been taking the private and confidential NHS medical records of my patients without their knowledge or consent. This has been done without informing patients, nor asking permission, without anonymising the notes, nor informing the patient of their legal right to object to this action. The GMC state they do this in the Public Interest, but have consistently refused to state what that Public Interest is.

Just as LEAP/E2020 anticipated many months ago, and in contrast to the reports coming out of the media and the « experts » during these past few weeks, Greece really has the Eurozone behind it to give support and credibility (especially concerning good management in the future, the only guarantee of an escape from a damnable cycle of growing public deficits (1)). There will not be, then, any Greek default of payment even if the commotion over the Greek situation really is an indication of a growing awareness that money to finance the huge Western public debt is becoming increasingly difficult to find: a situation now « untenable » as a recent report of the Bank of International Settlements underlined.

A human being cannot be beheaded twice. But a nation can. Twice in less than a century, Poland‘s elite – political, military, ministerial – came to a terrible death in the woods around Smolensk. Ordinary Poles with history in their bones can’t be blamed for fearing, last weekend, that the beheading axe was swung by the same hands.
But it was an accident. The fact that President Lech Kaczynski and his retinue had flown to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre, only a few miles away, was one of those malign coincidences that haunt Polish history. And it happened at a moment when Russia and Poland were trying, with some success, to put their long and dreadful past behind them. The spontaneous, great-hearted grief of ordinary Russian people in the days after the air crash amazed and then moved the Poles.

“There is no way Indians can justify their failure to pursue an independent foreign policy. If they find themselves today sitting on the ground and telling “sad stories of the death of kings”, is it Obama who is at fault?
The existential angst in the Indian mind is in actuality nothing else than the experience of human freedom and responsibility. India is an emerging power in the world order and it cannot insist on living an inauthentic existence.”

Senior Indian officials in their private briefing insist there was “almost a Zen-like spiritual quality” to the meeting between Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and United States President Barack Obama in Washington last Sunday. However, the question being posed by the Indian strategic community is still: “Does Obama care about India?”
