CASHREPORTS

The Bailout Strategy of nations such as Britain and America are starting to
yield results, just not

all the right kinds. 

http://tinyurl.com/d3pr37

London Banks fail to use the money given to them by the government.

While Small Businesses get declined for credit, London Banks continue to take

government bailout cash.

China has been bailing out companies, but not to the extent of the US and
England.  But, the recent

dramatic profit losses of one of its major companies may trigger more bailout
response.

http://r.reuters.com/zed53c 

Major Chinese Industry loses billions.  When a raw material provider
such as Chalco (aluminum provider)

shows such losses, the underpinnings of that economy, production, cannot be
healthy.

The powers that be, the folks who make their living understanding economies,
don't seem to be getting

behind the Obama method of forcing green technology on America with Stimulus
Cash and new tax schemes.

Warren Buffet pans the Obama cap and trade scheme, cites overwhelming
economic cost.

Technology offers great opportunities for new growth, but all new growth
comes at the expense of others.

Here's one such loser.

Newspapers see loss of advertising revenues, subscriptions…..has the era of
paper ended?

Finally, the government's role is debated.  When Obama's auto team
forced out Rick Wagoner of GM, some are asking

if this is the role government should  be making, forcing CEOs (even
those that might deserve it) out.  It sets the precedent

for future force-outs of CEOs who might not be as obviously removable as
Wagoner.

 http://r.reuters.com/ceh53c

The President of the United States forces a CEO out.  Wagoner's
departure sends a chilling message

to the other CEOs, play nice or get lost.  Is this the proper role of
government?

GREENNEWS REPORT

The full effects of green conversion, carbon offsets, and other green-related
reforms

may not be as smooth or as beneficial as seemed obvious.

 http://bit.ly/3bF

The scramble for those carbon offset dollars has begun.  Here,
businesses are ratcheting up

for the potential new business in carbon offsetting, the scheme where a
carbon emitter

pays a company to reduce carbon levels somewhere else.

Here is another example.  This Australian company is talking about
underground

carbon storage.  It denies its interest is connected to anything other
than local concerns,

but critics are doubtful.

Yvo de Boer, the executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on
Climate Change…

"There's a double worry. The low oil price means that a lot of renewable
energy projects

are being pushed onto the backburner and at the same time there's less
investment capital around,"

The reality of climate change technology and development is the economy.

Green Projects, such as wind farms and solar farms face an unlikely foe,
their supposed champions,

environmentalists.

GOVNEWS REPORT 3-30-09

Obama calls for a new war strategy, backs off on global climate change
leadership,

or at least tempers it, and tracking some of the recovery dollars…

http://bit.ly/MZTF

"…chief climate-change negotiator said Sunday that

the U.S. would be "powerfully,

fervently engaged" in global talks to reduce carbon emissions but warned

of a difficult path ahead…"

Is the US tempering its global climate change stance?  Climate
negotiator tempers

first signs of bold US leadership

Obama video on the new strategy in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Whether you are for or against Obama's policies, one thing you cannot argue
with

is Obama's administration is sweeping Web 2.0 into the White House. 
This

video, linked to his original campaign blog, is a great example of the types

of tools web 2.0 can provide to enhance government and public exchange.

"Perry said the money would come with too many strings attached.

Taking the half billion would require the state to assist qualified
out-of-work residents

seeking part-time jobs, an idea that Perry said the state has rejected
before,

 partly because it could discourage them from seeking full-time
employment."

The ramifications of the recovery act of 2009….States chafe under federal

power grab.

"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the
first award of nearly

$100 million in environmental stimulus funding to be
invested in Colorado

under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery
Act)"

The Recovery Dollars at work.  Colorado gets first of the
green part of the

recovery act

Webmersion Reports

Newspapers see further presence decline as China builds a cyber army. 
Lest you fear,

cyber sophistication is now being taught in greater numbers in colleges and
universities around

the world.  The webmersion trends are, as many trends these days, mixed. 
While

we naturally fear the new, necessity drives us towards further development. 
In the webmersion

spotlight, these battling trends can be seen.

Newspapers Lose Record Nunbers in last quarter

http://bit.ly/hzrfs

While it may not mean the end for conventional newspapers, certainly the
latest downturn

is indicative of the descent of print and the further rise of digital.

 http://bit.ly/2gsoRE

The recent round of attacks on Tibetan Activists has raised concerns that
China may

be developing a concerted team of hackers, clones, and other digital
miscreants.

British College offers well-balanced, visionary social media course, faces
ridicule.

Is the world not fully aware of the new importance of social media from
finding a wife\

to finding a job.
