After having examined the suspicious ink toner device for six hours and found it to be a dud, bomb experts at East Midlands Airport only reversed their decision after being ordered to re-inspect the package by US authorities following President Obama’s Friday afternoon speech in which he claimed that the devices did in fact contain explosives.

“The US and Russia are cooperating more closely in Central Asia and elsewhere on security matters. This cooperation indicates that renewed tensions between the two powers of a few years back – Cold War Two, it was being called – are being eased.
Neither Russia nor the US can afford increased defense budgets and the world can do without a rivalry exacerbating smaller conflicts around the globe.”

Russia’s use of its military and security forces has historically not been known for economy of force or strategic subtlety. Injudicious invaders and troublesome satellites have been met with overwhelming force. However, in the decades after Joseph Stalin and his successors belatedly departed the scene, Russia has used its might more judiciously and subtly.

SAO PAULO – In his wildest White House dreams, United States President Barack Obama swoops like an angel over the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert “Rally to Restore Sanity” that brought at least 200,000 people to the Mall in Washington, DC, this Saturday; he makes sure that “sanity” wins over “fear” – as it did, with a lot of swing and swagger; and then he soundly falls asleep, knowing in his heart that his Democratic party will overcome all shades of fear in mid-term polls and keep his presidency on track.
Ooops. Wrong script. In fact “sanity” was what Brazilian, not American voters chose on Sunday as they elected Dilma Roussef, of the governing Workers’ Party (PT), as the country’s first female president, with 12 million votes over her competitor, the social-democrat turned tropical version of the Tea Party Jose Serra – or “Serra Palin“. Globally, Dilma’s 56 million votes is the biggest victory of any left-leaning coalition (11 parties) anywhere in the world.

Many Indian farmers and concerned citizens are taking the offensive against the attempted takeover of their agriculture system by multinational biotechnology giants like Monsanto. A group known as Kisan Swaraj Yatra (KSY) has been mobilizing and gathering support from farmers, and touring the country in protest of genetically-modified (GM) crops that are destroying the nation’s agriculture.

Some have expressed hopes that the tea partiers, many of whom grew out of the Ron Paul movement, will bring about a shift away from American imperialism through their demands for smaller, cheaper, less intrusive, and more accountable government. But it ain’t necessarily so. The tea partiers generally fail to understand that the indispensable element in the explosive growth of big government over the past ten years has been Washington’s failure to craft a foreign and security policy that is commensurate with the nation’s resources and proportional to the actual level of threat that exists in the world. This results in the tea partiers overwhelmingly supporting an aggressive security policy even though they must know that leaving the Pentagon budget untouched and untouchable guarantees deficit spending and continued growth of the parts of government that are allegedly committed to “keeping us free.”

“It is becoming harder to mop up the liquidity flowing into these countries,” said Neil Mellor, of the Bank of New York Mellon. “We fully expect more central banks to impose capital controls over the next couple of months. That is the world we live in,” he said. Globalisation is unravelling before our eyes.
Globalisation Anglo-Saxon style, that is: a benign counter-globalisation, multipolar, is coming more and more to the fore. That said, this is an excellent article by Evans-Pritchard: it seems that, in Britain, some on the right are much closer to reality than those on the left, who are simply nowhere.

The Fed’s “QE2” risks accelerating the demise of the dollar-based currency system, perhaps leading to an unstable tripod with the euro and yuan, or a hybrid gold standard, or a multi-metal “bancor” along lines proposed by John Maynard Keynes in the 1940s.

We sit amongst the vulnerable beneath the trampling of elephants as they fight it out. South Africa may be a big player in Africa, but is no match for the economic giants in the global arena. South Africa simply does not have the foreign currency reserves or trade power to fight a currency war.

The final theory is that the rise in atmospheric electromagnetic radiation levels, a byproduct of the increasing usage of cell phones and wireless communication towers, is a major factor. Cell phone radiation interferes with bees’ ability to navigate through the air.

Prasarn sees the scope for such cooperation, paved by existing frameworks like the Chiang Mai Initiative, and this could lead Asia into a new landscape in the next 10-20 years. The picture includes a new trade currency and a currency to store the value of assets, aside from the greenback.
