24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise:(10 NATIONS) and another shall rise after them;(#11 SPAIN) and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.(BE HEAD OF 3 KINGS OR NATIONS).

Eurobonds could steer the EU out of crisis, regions chief says
VALENTINA POP 05.07.2010 @ 15:55 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - One way to revive the European economy without burdening national budgets would be to set up eurobonds and use them to finance pan-European transport networks and broadband connections, the head of EU's regional assembly said in an interview.One month into her office, Mercedes Bresso has great ambitions for the Committee of the Regions (CoR), a consultative body of the EU whose main task is to check that the bloc's new laws and regulations deal only with issues which cannot be solved at national, regional or local level.A convinced federalist, the Italian politician is a staunch supporter of the idea of setting up eurobonds.

The EU is asking member states to have tough stability plans that are very difficult to achieve. But via eurobonds, we could finance infrastructure in Europe, railroads, broadband connections, and take the pressure off from the national budgets, Ms Bresso said in a recent interview with EUobserver.Currently the EU is only financing cross-border connections in so-called pan-European transport networks, she noted, calling this a minimal contribution,especially since it is in the EU's interest to have well-functioning, good quality railways and highways.According to estimates by the European Commission, traffic between member states is expected to double by 2020 and the investment required to complete and modernise a true trans-European network amounts to some €500 billion from 2007 to 2020.So why not finance the whole corridor with European bonds? Ms Bresso said. And then have an EU agency, not the member states, as owner of the infrastructure. In this way, the financing of the debt would be made available by the revenues in renting out the infrastructure.Developing such transport and communication networks is essential for regions and cities, in order to boost investments and employment, she added.We need development policies, not only restrictive ones otherwise we'll have deflation and GDP decrease at a moment when Asian and South-American countries are developing very quickly.The Italian Socialist admitted that her federalist ideas might not be palatable for national governments, but expressed her conviction that some sort of common projects are needed at EU level in order to generate revenue.

This is particularly the case with EU's so-called 2020 agenda, adopted by heads of state and government last month and aimed at boosting employment, competitiveness and economic growth, she explained: The 2020 agenda has to be financed by something, member states have no money.Asked if she feared a reduction of regional administrations amid budget-cutting measures, since several German politicians have floated the idea of merging some of the country's 16 regions, Ms Bresso said when you have a crisis, you sometimes have crazy ideas how to save money.Certainly, it is possible that in certain states you have an excessive number of provinces and regions. But democracy at local level is essential.Herself a former president of the Italian region of Piedmont, Ms Bresso had to experience local democracy at work in March when she lost the elections by 9,000 votes against a candidate from the far-right Northern League. She subsequently had to step down from her post as president of the CoR, only two months into her mandate.Once her membership of the CoR was re-defined as a simple regional deputy from Piedmont, Ms Bresso was re-elected president of the CoR on 9 June, her aides saying that she has a clear political mandate to run the institution.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold,(7X OR 7-DEGREES) as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people,(ISRAEL) and healeth the stroke of their wound.

Heat warnings continue across Ontario, Quebec
CTV.ca News Staff Date: Tue. Jul. 6 2010 8:32 AM ET

Keeping cool will be the order of the day Tuesday -- and for much of the week -- as most of Central Canada and northeastern U.S. continues to roast in a nearly week-long heat wave. A southern flow of hot air from the south -- called the Bermuda High -- has blanketed the area and is acting like a heat pump, moving warm, southerly air from the Gulf of Mexico northward. The heat and humidity isn't expected to break until at least Friday, when a cold front is forecast to sweep in and drop temperatures closer to seasonal norms of about 25 or 26 Celsius. Environment Canada senior climatologist Dave Phillips says if it feels like this heat wave is hitting us hard, it's because it's been so long since we've had a long, withering bout of the three H's: heat, humidity and haze. This is the first heat wave in, I think, three years for this area and that's why it's sort of noteworthy... And the humidity is so high, probably because of all that precipitation we had in June, he told CTV's Canada AM Tuesday morning. Phillips notes that while we've already seen a few very hot days across Canada this summer, it's the humidity element that makes the heat so dangerous. In this kind of heat wave we have now, when you add in that humidity factor, the air is just saturated with moisture and the body just can't perspire. So we often see health problems associated with that,he said.

Once again today, Environment Canada has issued smog and humidex advisories for parts of Ontario and Quebec. Humidex values are expected to be in the 40-degree range. The advisory covers southern Ontario and southern Quebec, from Windsor, to Montreal and the St. Lawrence River. Many affected cities have opened special cooling centres and are urging people to use them. Those most at risk of heat stroke, such as young children, seniors, and those on certain medications, should try to spend the day in air-conditioned facilities, such as shopping malls, libraries and community centres. The heat wave has already claimed the life of a homeless woman in suburban Detroit on Sunday.Rob Kuhn from Environment Canada recommends taking precautions on a day like today.Drink a lot of water, a lot of fluids and take it easy if you're working outside or doing anything outside, especially between 12 noon and 6 p.m. because certainly, it's going to be quite hot, he told CTV News Channel Tuesday.And we also note that the UV index across southern Ontario will be 10 or extreme, he said.With so many residents expected to crank up the air conditioning today, power utilities across Ontario, Quebec and the eastern U.S. are preparing for maximum demand, trying to avoid the brief blackout that hit a large swath of Toronto on Monday. An explosion and fire at a transformer station knocked out electricity for more than 300,000 Toronto residents just before 5 p.m. ET, though it's unclear whether a surge in electricity demands sparked the blowout. Nevertheless, the blackout sent thousands of office workers out into the streets, where they found the downtown briefly in chaos from a lack of traffic signals.The blackout was confined to a relatvely small area, because the relay system at the transformer station was able to disconnect the disabled site from the rest of the grid. That helped prevent the ripple effect that occurred in 2003, when a local Ohio outage led to a massive blackout throughout the northeastern U.S. and southern Ontario.

Heat blankets US as workers return after holiday By DEEPTI HAJELA, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

NEW YORK – With a scorching holiday weekend in the rearview mirror, a real summer sizzle is about to wash over parts of the United States.After an extended Fourth of July weekend when temperatures inched into at least the 90s from Maine to Texas and into the Southwest and Death Valley, the mid-Atlantic is embarking on a string of intensely hot days, with temperatures in some places closing in on 100-plus degrees.

Temperatures could reach as high as 102 degrees on Tuesday, meteorologists said, and Wednesday was forecast to be the most humid day of the stretch.And unlike on the long Independence Day weekend, when utilities had lower demand for power, the masses returning to work Tuesday amid the possible record-setting heat across the Northeast threatened to push utilities usage to record levels.Demand was anticipated to increase when offices reopened Tuesday, said Bob McGee, spokesman for the Consolidated Edison utility in New York. Con Ed was preparing for peak usage to break the record set on Aug. 2, 2006, he said.In Philadelphia, the increased load from the heat blew fuses at transformers run by the Peco utility, said spokeswoman Karen Muldoon Geus. About 1,900 customers were without power Tuesday morning, down from about 8,000 on Monday. Davey Adams, 45, was headed back to his job Tuesday morning as a forklift driver at a package company warehouse in Philadelphia that has no air conditioning, just fans.He said he planned to use cold water and a washcloth draped over his head to keep cool.He had spent the weekend at his son's house at the New Jersey shore, where it was too hot even to sit at the beach, he said, so they stayed inside.In the East, warm air is sitting over the top of us, and it's not really going to budge much for the next day or two, Brian Korty, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Camp Springs, Md., said Monday. After that, he said, a system coming in off the Atlantic Ocean would bring in cooler temperatures.

Korty stressed that the danger from increasing temperatures was likely to grow.As the temperature and humidity both get higher, the stress it can put on the human body increases,he said, and therefore the higher the temperature and higher the humidity, the greater the chance of people having problems.Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Tim Murray was hospitalized Monday evening after marching in five parades in 90-degree heat over the weekend and feeling under the weather, his spokesman said. Murray was in good spirits but was to stay overnight at a hospital in Worcester, 40 miles west of Boston, for observation, spokesman Kyle Sullivan said.The weekend heat also was blamed for at least one death.Temperatures that pushed into the mid-90s across much of Michigan claimed the life of a homeless woman found lying next to a car in a suburban Detroit parking lot Sunday afternoon. The Oakland County medical examiner's office told the Detroit Free Press newspaper the woman died of hyperthermia, an abnormally high body temperature.In Indianapolis, which had a high of 90 degrees Sunday, police said they arrested a couple for endangering their 2-year-old daughter by taking her begging in the heat. The parents, who had $98 when arrested, were jailed Monday on child endangerment charges. The girl was treated for heat exposure.The heat rising from the sidewalk on Independence Mall in Philadelphia on Monday had history teacher Joan Whalen eager to get home to San Antonio.We went to D.C., too, when it was record hot (last week). I'm tired of the heat, said Whalen, 65, as she exited the Liberty Bell Pavilion.

For others, though, there was no getting away from the heat. In downtown Newark, N.J., on Monday, where temperatures crept toward 100 degrees, sidewalks that normally would be teeming with pedestrians were practically barren. Street vendor Alex Gam, wearing a hat and sunglasses to ward off the sun, lamented being outside in a spot devoid of shade for several hours with little to show for it.There's no business today, it's very slow,he said.It's too hot. Everybody's at the beach.Just then, two women approached, and each bought a handbag, providing Gam a brief reward.
In downtown Washington, Richard Willis, 52, was one of a few dozen homeless men in Franklin Square, a small park. He spent his day drinking water and staying in the shade.That's all you can do, really, said Willis, who wore jeans and a long-sleeve shirt and sat under a tall tree near a fountain.I've been through many summers. I'm experienced.The long weekend had loads of people out seeking relief. Five Connecticut state parks had to stop admitting people because they had reached capacity.Associated Press writers Eva Dou and Samantha Gross in New York, Maryclaire Dale and Jeff McMillan in Philadelphia, David Porter in Newark, N.J., and David Melendy and Sarah Karush in Washington contributed to this report.

La Nina expected in Pacific this year: WMO By Stephanie Nebehay - JULY 6,10

GENEVA (Reuters) – La Nina is likely to cool the tropical Pacific in coming months, a phenomenon which usually causes stronger monsoons across Asia and eastern Australia, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Tuesday.The weather condition also promotes the development of storms including hurricanes in the tropical Atlantic, it said.El Nino, the opposite phenomenon which warms the sea, rapidly dissipated in early May after prevailing since late 2009. This has led to the current situation, bordering on a weak La Nina event in the tropical Pacific, according to the United Nations agency.These borderline conditions are more likely than not to strengthen to become a basin-wide La Nina episode during the second half of 2010,WMO said in a statement.While it is likely that the La Nina conditions will further develop over the next several months, the timing and magnitude of such an event in 2010 are still uncertain, WMO expert Rupa Kumar Kolli told a news briefing in Geneva.Current conditions are not adequate for the WMO to declare that a La Nina event is actually in place, he said.Most forecasting models do not a indicate a particularly strong La Nina event in terms of sea-surface temperatures, he said.

Typical La Nina events are usually associated with stronger monsoons in most parts of Asia and also Australia. A La Nina event is also associated with an active hurricane season in the tropical Atlantic, Kolli said.So these are some of the risk factors that should be kept in mind, he said.The U.S. government's top weather agency has already predicted that the Atlantic storm season which began on June 1 may be the most intense since 2005 when Hurricane Katrina killed over 1,000 people and disrupted oil production by crashing through Gulf of Mexico energy facilities.

Kolli, asked about the possible effects of La Nina on efforts to clean up BP's Gulf of Mexico oil slick, said: La Nina by itself is unlikely to play a role in that region.But considering that there is a possibility of an active hurricane season, the hurricanes definitely have the potential to churn up the sea and also play a role in the spread of the oil spill in some ways. But this all depends upon the track of the hurricane and the strength of the hurricane and many other factors associated with individual hurricane events,he said.If a La Nina event becomes well-established, it is also associated with a slight decrease in air temperature in many parts of the world, according to Kolli.That has implications for the global mean temperature,he told Reuters.(Editing by Jonathan Lynn)

Mexican state hit by flooding along Texas border
Tue Jul 6, 12:01 am ET

CIUDAD ACUNA, Mexico – Hundreds of people were evacuated and a border bridge closed in northern Mexico on Monday after days of rain caused flooding and water to swell behind a dam.Authorities in Coahuila state temporarily closed the border bridge in Ciudad Acuna as a precautionary measure after water released from the Amistad dam raised the level of the Rio Grande.Ciudad Acuna lies across the border from Del Rio, Texas.Coahuila Gov. Humberto Moreira told local media that about 10,000 people had suffered severe damage to their homes or possessions due to the flooding.The release of water from the Amistad dam raised the possibility that river levels could rise downstream in Piedras Negras, a city across the border from Eagle Pass, Texas, and Coahuila authorities evacuated people from settlements near the river as a precaution.Meanwhile, authorities in neighboring Nuevo Leon state, which was lashed by heavy rains from Hurricane Alex last week, reported that a total of 12 people died in flooding there caused by the storm.Alex hit Mexico's Gulf coast on Wednesday as a Category 2 hurricane before weakening into a tropical storm while moving inland. It dissipated Thursday.

Forecasters eye new storm brewing over Gulf
Mon Jul 5, 9:13 pm ET

MIAMI (Reuters) – An area of disturbed weather over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico could strengthen into a tropical storm later this week, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said on Monday.If it revs up to cyclone force, the system would become the second named storm of the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season and it could hamper oil spill clean-up efforts in the Gulf.The Miami-based hurricane center said the broad area of low pressure, which was moving northwestward at about 10 to 15 miles per hour had a medium chance of becoming a tropical storm over the next 48 hours.

Regardless of development, it said the system was likely to bring heavy rainfall and gusty winds to the Yucatan Peninsula and western Cuba over the next day or so.Most computer models showed the storm on a track that would take it over central Texas, well away from the site of BP's blown-out Macondo well off the Louisiana coast.
Earlier, the hurricane center said another storm in the Gulf, just off the coast of Morgan City, Louisiana, was packing strong winds and had a high chance of becoming a cyclone before it made landfall.But the system moved quickly over land, sapping its potential for development into a full-blown tropical storm.The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to Nov 30 and meteorologists predict an active storm season. Last week, Alex became the first Atlantic storm in fifteen years to gain hurricane strength in the month of June.(Editing by Todd Eastham)

Obama, Netanyahu to focus on peace talks By DARLENE SUPERVILLE, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed into a White House meeting Tuesday with the same goal: trying to move the Israelis and Palestinians to resume face-to-face peace talks.Netanyahu on Sunday endorsed the U.S. call for direct talks between the two parties, just days after White House officials said Obama would push during the Oval Office session for those negotiations to get under way sooner rather than later.Addressing his cabinet Sunday, Netanyahu said the time has come for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to get ready to meet with the Israelis because there is no other way to advance peace. I hope this will be one of the results of the visit to Washington.Aides to Obama sounded a hopeful tone late last week, telling reporters that weeks of shuttle diplomacy between the two sides by George Mitchell, Obama's special envoy to the Middle East, had paid off and the gaps have narrowed.We believe there are opportunities to further narrow those gaps, to allow the sides to take that next step to direct talks, said Daniel Shapiro, the senior Middle East director at the National Security Council.

Obama and Netanyahu also are expected to discuss Israel's decision Monday to significantly ease its blockade of the Gaza Strip to let in most consumer goods. Israel's ban on exports from Gaza and limits on shipments of construction material remain.Israel came under heavy international pressure, including from Obama and other top U.S. officials, to loosen its 3-year-old land and naval blockade of the seaside territory following Israel's deadly May 31 military raid on a flotilla trying to break the embargo.At the time, Obama said the situation was unsustainable. He called for a narrow blockade to bar weapons that Gaza's Hamas rulers could use against Israel while admitting items the territory's 1.5 million Palestinians need for daily living and economic development.Obama and Netanyahu also are likely to discuss efforts to end Iran's nuclear weapons pursuit, including sanctions Obama signed into law last week. That legislation followed a fourth round of U.N. Security Council sanctions against Iran.Tuesday's meeting will be the fifth between Obama and Netanyahu and would make up for a scheduled June 1 session at the White House that Netanyahu canceled to deal with fallout from the flotilla raid.The session follows meetings Obama held at the White House in recent weeks with key Mideast players, including Abbas and King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

It comes after a rocky White House meeting between Obama and Netanyahu in March. That followed Israel's surprise announcement of plans for new construction in east Jerusalem as Vice President Joe Biden was in Israel and preparing for dinner with the prime minister.Getting both sides to resume direct talks, which broke off in December 2008, is a huge challenge. One big sticking point is Israel's continued construction of Jewish housing in east Jerusalem, an area the Palestinians claim as part of a hoped-for future state.The Palestinians have refused to sit down with Netanyahu until he agrees to freeze construction in areas they want for an independent state. Israel recently said it has no intention of doing so.Abbas said last week that the borders of a future Palestinian state and security relations with Israel are the two issues on the table. He said direct talks can resume if an agreement is reached on them.Obama has called on Jerusalem to halt settlement construction and on the Palestinians to show progress on security and stopping violence against Israel.

Obama Appears Detached from Israel says Former US Negotiator
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 6,10

Time is working against U.S. President Barack Obama, who appears to be detached from Israel, former U.S. Middle East negotiator Aaron David Miller wrote in Politico.com Tuesday. He maintains there is not much of a U.S. strategy yet for Middle East peace.

President Obama and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu are to meet Tuesday evening as the American government pulls out all stops for high-profile publicity to rectify the damage of an anti-Israel image it has created. The Republican party has pounced on President Obama for his shabby treatment of Prime Minister Netanyahu during his visit earlier this year and for its lukewarm support of Israel over the flotilla clash with Turkish terror activists.Miller, who has become decidedly more skeptical since his years of negotiating for both Democratic and Republican presidents, wrote, Unlike Netanyahu, Obama does seem in a hurry. He wants a two-state solution on his watch. Time is not his ally.It is not entirely clear why Obama considers this matter so urgent… If Washington presses too hard with its own ideas now, it could lead to a crisis, the breakdown of negotiations or the need for a premature U.S. plan. None of this would be good for Obama.Miller also said that unlike former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush,who seemed in love with Israel…Obama seems detached.As for Prime Minister Netanyahu, Miller explained there are two sides of the man – the tough-talking ideological Zionist and a pragmatic statesman. Which version of the PM will show up in Washington? Miller asked. Both, of course.Arab skepticism and expectations of President Obama are high, and a failure to meet Palestinian Authority demands of a total building freeze for Jews in Judea and Samaria would likely add another black mark to the president’s policies that have contributed to a sinking popularity.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Five EU foreign ministers to visit Gaza after Israel eases blockade
VALENTINA POP Today JULY 6,10 @ 09:28 CET

The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Britain, Italy and Spain will visit Gaza following Israel's ease of the blockade imposed on the Palestinian territory, a move backed as a significant step forward by the EU's foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.The five ministers sent a joint letter to Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman, accepting his invitation to visit Gaza, the Italian foreign ministry said Monday (5 July).The trip will take place in strict co-ordination with the Palestinian Authority, which lost control over the enclave in 2007, when the militant Islamist group Hamas was elected, prompting Israel to impose a full-scale blockade on the territory. Allowing the European dignitaries into the Palestinian territory is a rare gesture from the Israeli government, with EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon being the only recent exceptions.Israel's policy towards Gaza has come under considerable international and European pressure after Israeli commandos boarded a ship carrying humanitarian aid for Gaza in an attempt to break the blockade, and killed nine Turkish citizens. The Jewish state has since eased the embargo, replacing an allowed items list with a prohibited items one, making import of consumer goods – for instance washing machines and mattresses - and food more accessible.

Ms Ashton on Monday praised the ease of the blockade as a significant step forward which should improve the lives of the ordinary people of Gaza.Her remarks were echoed by former British prime minister Tony Blair, the special Middle East envoy of the Quartet of the UN, EU, US and Russia, who said that Israel's measures should have a dramatic influence on the daily lives of the people of Gaza and on the private sector.However, Israel continues to ban most travel and exports and restricts the import of construction materials, which are badly needed after scores of buildings were levelled down in the winter of 2008, during its military raids over Gaza.Meanwhile, in Washington, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was due to meet President Barack Obama on Tuesday – a make-up visit after the previous one was marked by a chilly reception from the White House in the wake of a perceived afront to vice-president Joe Biden when an announcement of further illegal settlement construction in East Jerusalem was made during his visit to Israel.Mr Netanyahu is expected to assure Mr Obama he wants to upgrade indirect talks with the Palestinians to direct negotiations, a move Washington sees as vital to the goal of creating a Palestinian state alongside Israel.I am ready to meet (Palestinian) President (Mahmoud) Abbas today and tomorrow and the next day at any place, Mr Netanyahu said last week.His visit to the White House was originally scheduled for 1 June, but was scrapped after the attack on the aid flotilla.

Senators McCain, Lieberman, Graham Visiting PA in Ramallah
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 6,10

Former White House candidates Senator John McCain and Joe Lieberman and Sen. Lindsey Graham spoke with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad in Ramallah Tuesday as part of a four-day fact-finding tour.They are scheduled to meet with Defense Minister Ehud Barak and other Israel leaders on Wednesday, followed by a news conference.Sen. McCain was the Republican candidate running against Barack Obama two years ago, and Senator Lieberman, now an Independent, was the Democratic vice-presidential candidate in 2000, when Republican George W. Bush won his first term in office.The senators’ meetings with the PA came several hours before Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Barack Obama were scheduled to sit down for face-to-face talks at the White House. Fayyad and Abbas have stuck to their demands for PA control over all areas of Jerusalem, as well as all of Judea and Samaria, that were restored to Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War. All three senators have gone on record as saying that Jerusalem is the unified capital of Israel.Sen. Graham, the lesser known of the three, is a South Carolina Republican who also is a judge advocate in the Air Force Reserves. The Obama administration considers him to be one of the most bi-partisan senators.

Speaking at an American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) banquet earlier this year, he stated, Jerusalem is not a settlement. No government in Israel will ever look at Jerusalem as a settlement. No government in the United States should ever look at Jerusalem as a settlement. It is the undivided capital of the State of Israel. It is the eternal home of the Jewish faith. And it is now time to move on to other issues.On Iran, he told AIPAC, Sometimes it is better to go to war than to allow the Holocaust to develop a second time.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Final Gulfstream G250 Business Jet in Test Flight
by Hana Levi Julian JULY 6,10

A third Gulfstream G250 business jet has begun the series of real-time tests in the air that will determine whether they will pass muster as Israel Aeronautic Industries (IAI) aircraft.So far, three of the aircraft have been produced by IAI, all of which are taking part in a 1,300-hour flight-test program. The first, S/N 2001, is focused on performing tests that check in-flight performance and handling. The second, S/N 2002, is working on avionics, and the newest aircraft, S/N 2003, is being checked on systems functionality and reliability.The third aircraft made its longest test flight on Monday, lasting seven hours and one minute. Its first flight was launched from Ben Gurion International Airport on June 28 and lasted two hours and 56 minutes, reaching a maximum speed of 250 knots and a top altitude of 20,000 feet (6,096 meters). It’s exciting to have all three test aircraft in the air,said Pres Henne, Gulfstream’s senior vice president of Programs, Engineering and Test. He added that the pilots handling the aircraft are pleased with the response of the jets,rivaling those of our large-cabin aircraft.The G250, which has the largest cabin and longest range at the fastest speed in its class, is powered by twin Honeywell HTF7250G engines and is capable of traveling 3,400 nautical miles at Mach 0.80. Its initial cruise altitude is 41,000 feet (12,496 meters).

The first G250 (S/N 2001), which rolled out of the IAI Tel Aviv facility in October 2009, is slated for type certification in 2011, and will be completed at the Gulfstream Mid-Cabin Center of Excellence in Dallax, Texas. It reached its maximum speed of Mach 0.85 and an altitude of 45,000 feet (13,500 meters).The three aircraft have already flown over 200 hours on more than 70 flights thus far.

Hypersonic Missiles: Air Force in Discussions After Test TIME By MARK THOMPSON / WASHINGTON – Tue Jul 6, 6:50 am ET

Is it a good thing for the U.S. military to be able to hit any target anywhere in the world in a matter of minutes? That used to be a sci-fi question, but it's becoming reality as the Air Force develops a new class of long-range hypersonic missiles. Back when the U.S. was pitted against the Soviet Union in a half-century-long quest to prove what was better - capitalism or communism? - pushing the technological envelope was vital for bragging rights and military superiority, as well as to buff up each side's political system. The atom bomb: U.S. 1, U.S.S.R. 0. Then came Sputnik, and the score was tied at 1 apiece. Then Apollo and putting a man on the moon - game, set, match. On June 30, Air Force boosters gathered to discuss the impact of adding to the Pentagon's arsenal hypersonic missiles, which can reach at least Mach 5, or five times the speed of sound. The topic has grown serious since the May 26 test flight of the X-51A Waverider aircraft over the Pacific, following a six-year, $250 million effort to develop a missile capable of flying 600 miles in 10 minutes. Such a missile could be developed in a decade with adequate funding, backers say. May's flight was a giant leap toward that goal. This test opens the door for hypersonic weapons capable of prompt global strike,said Brigadier General William J. Thornton, a key Air Force weapons tester. (See pictures of life in Colorado's NORAD bunker.)

Carried under the wing of a B-52, the 14-ft., tungsten-nosed X-51A looks like a flying Dustbuster, designed to let it ride the shock wave its speed generates. In its first-ever flight, a scramjet engine - cooled ingeniously by its own fuel - pushed it to about 3,000 m.p.h. for three minutes before falling into the ocean. (The longest previous flight of such technology had lasted only 12 seconds.) Keeping an engine operating at such speeds has been likened to keeping a match burning in a hurricane. We equate this leap in engine technology as equivalent to the post–World War II jump from propeller-driven aircraft to jet engines, Air Force program manager Charlie Brink said after the brief - but historic - flight of the Boeing-Rocketdyne vehicle. But the notion of a missile capable of traveling a mile a second raises a question: Just because something can be done, should it be done? The U.S. military's challenge has never been hitting a target so much as it has been hitting the right target. Recall its inability to kill Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan in 1998. Back then, it was using relatively slow-moving cruise missiles.It is worth noting that the 80-minute fly-out time of the conventional cruise missiles used in the attack would have been cut to just over 12 minutes if a Mach-6 hypersonic-missile system had been available,Air Force scholar Richard Hallion noted in a paper presented at the recent hypersonic confab in Arlington, Va. (See pictures of the U.S. military in the Pacific.)But time isn't usually the problem. There was that bombing that missed Saddam Hussein in the opening salvo of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, although it destroyed the house where U.S. intelligence said he was hiding. Then there was the cruise-missile strike against a Sudanese drug factory in 1998 because the U.S. thought it was making nerve agent, a claim never proven and disputed worldwide. In 1999, a B-2 bomber mistakenly hit the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the Kosovo war because of an out-of-date map.The missed opportunity to kill bin Laden is a constant theme when hypersonic weapons are discussed. The U.S. military loves new and improved technology and is always looking for shortfalls that could have been bridged if only the nation had invested in better weapons. When the Soviet Union collapsed, for example, many experts felt President Reagan's Star Wars missile shield would die too. But it limped along for several years, until the North Koreans saved it in 1998 by launching a three-stage missile. (See the 10 most expensive military planes.)

While the flight didn't achieve its purported goal of putting a satellite into orbit, it did succeed in pumping additional billions of U.S. dollars into the nation's $100 billion investment in missile defense. Likewise, the failure of a fleet of eight U.S. military helicopters to rescue U.S. hostages in Iran in 1980 led to the $50 billion V-22 program. The military was profoundly embarrassed by the Iran-hostage snafu, in which three short-range helicopters broke down, and wanted to make sure it would never happen again. So far it has succeeded in that effort. But that's not because the Pentagon now has a fleet of V-22s capable of long-range missions; it's because such missions are extraordinarily rare, and there hasn't been a similar one since.Hallion's report concluded by warning that the Pentagon's current arsenal is not sufficiently timely to meet the growing challenges of 21st century rogue states and irresponsible actors who have access to advanced weaponry and a willingness to use it against America and its friends. But, unlike many weapons boosters, he added a key admonition about how things might have turned out that day when the U.S. tried to kill bin Laden with a barrage of those slow-moving - 550 m.p.h. - cruise missiles.It must be emphasized that one cannot say with certainty, he noted, that a hypersonic-missile attack would have had any greater luck. Given our inability to find bin Laden in the 12 years since, it's a caveat worth remembering before the nation spends billions on another quicksilver bullet.

Iran sends EU letter on conditions for nuke talks By NASSER KARIMI, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran said in a letter to the European Union that it's ready for talks on the country's nuclear program but that the EU must first guarantee there would be no threats against Tehran, state TV reported on Tuesday.The TV said the letter was sent by Iran's top nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, to EU's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, detailing Tehran's conditions for the talks.It followed President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's announcement a week ago in which he said Tehran would not hold such talks until late August, to punish the West for the latest U.N. sanctions imposed on Iran. The EU and the U.S. have also imposed their own, additional and tougher sanctions against Iran to curtail its nuclear program.In his speech, Ahmadinejad accused world powers of approving the latest sanctions to give them the upper hand in talks over the issue.He also set three conditions for an eventual resumption of talks, saying countries who want to participate should make clear whether they oppose Israel's purported atomic arsenal, whether they support the Nonproliferation Treaty and whether they want to be friends or enemies with Iran. However, he said, participation in the talks was not contingent on the answers.

Jalili's letter reiterated those three points and stressed that the EU must make it clear whether the talks will be aimed at interaction and cooperation, or hostility and confrontation.It was a reply to Ashton's invitation to Jalili for talks in early June. The West accuses Iran of seeking to develop atomic weapons through its controversial nuclear enrichment program. Iran denies the charge, claiming the program is for peaceful electricity production only.Jalili also said the EU must elaborate on its stand on Israel's alleged nuclear arsenal.Iran considers Israel as its archenemy and the Jewish state has not ruled out military option against Iran's nuclear facilities. Israel, widely believed to have a sizable nuclear arsenal, refuses to confirm or deny the suspicions.

China objects to US sanctions against Iran
Tue Jul 6, 4:31 am ET

BEIJING – China said Tuesday that the United States and other countries should not expand on the latest U.N. sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear program.China did not exercise its veto power last month when the U.N. Security Council approved sanctions that target Iran's Revolutionary Guard, ballistic missiles and nuclear-related investments.The United States followed that up when President Barack Obama signed a bill Thursday that imposed tough unilateral sanctions against exports of gasoline and other refined petroleum products to Iran. It bans U.S. banks from doing business with foreign banks providing services to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.China supports the U.N. sanctions. China believes that countries should have correct implementation of the sanctions instead of expanding the sanctions, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told a news conference.The U.N. sanctions seek to punish Iran for rejecting proposals to halt uranium enrichment and take its nuclear fuel from abroad. The West and its allies fear Iran is developing nuclear weapons, though Iran says it is seeking nuclear power only for peaceful energy and medical research purposes.As a permanent member of the Security Council and key Iranian ally, China could have vetoed the sanctions, but after considerable international pressure it agreed to support them.But China has said its support for sanctions should not block efforts to find a diplomatic solution, and has called for renewed attempts to bring Iran back to the negotiating table.China's bilateral trade with Iran reached at least $36.5 billion last year. Iran meets 11 percent of China's energy needs and Chinese companies have major investments in Iranian energy extraction projects and the construction of roads, bridges and power plants.

Obama signs into law Iran sanctions bill
Thu Jul 1, 7:10 pm ET

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama has signed into law a bill imposing tough new sanctions against Iran over its alleged nuclear weapons program.The bill Obama signed Thursday evening in an East Room ceremony targets exports of gasoline and other refined petroleum products to Iran. It bans U.S. banks from doing business with foreign banks providing services to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.The administration hopes the new unilateral sanctions, combined with ones approved last month in the U.N. Security Council, will yield results even though previous regimens failed to halt Iran's activities that could lead to nuclear weapons development.The U.N. sanctions target the Revolutionary Guard, ballistic missiles and nuclear-related investments.As lawmakers looked on, Obama called the new law the toughest sanctions against Iran ever passed by the United States Congress.But he said he had not sought the outcome, contending it was chosen by an Iranian government that for years has defied U.N. resolutions and forged ahead with its nuclear programs while supporting terrorist groups and suppressing the Iranian people.While insisting the door to diplomacy is still open, Obama said the U.S. is showing the Iranian government that its actions have consequences.There should be no doubt. The United States and the international community are determined to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons,he said.

BP costs for oil spill response pass $3 billion By TOM BREEN, Associated Press Writer - JULY 5,10 7 AM

NEW ORLEANS – BP's costs for the disastrous Gulf of Mexico oil spill climbed nearly half a billion dollars in the past week, raising the oil giant's tab to just over $3 billion for work on cleaning and capping the gusher and payouts to individuals, businesses and governments.London-based BP PLC, the largest oil and gas producer in the Gulf, released its latest tally of response costs Monday. The total of $3.12 billion was up from $2.65 billion a week earlier. The figure does not include a $20 billion fund for Gulf damages BP created last month.As BP continued drilling relief wells that are the best hope for plugging the blown-out well, a giant new oil skimming vessel was tested in the Gulf. But lousy weather means it may be longer than first hoped before officials know if it can work full-time sucking crude from the sea.The Taiwanese skimmer dubbed A Whale has been able to show off its maneuverability during a weekend test in a 25-mile-square patch of water just north of the site where an April 20 explosion on the Deepwater Horizon killed 11 workers and started the worst oil spill in Gulf history.TMT, the shipping firm that owns the vessel, had hoped to test a containment boom system designed to direct greater volumes of oily water into the 12 vents or jaws that the ship uses to suck it in, according to spokesman Bob Grantham.But lingering bad weather in the form of stiff winds and choppy seas has made that impossible, and prevented a flotilla of smaller skimmers from working offshore along the coasts of Alabama, Mississippi and Florida.

As was the case yesterday, the sea state, with waves at times in excess of 10 feet, is not permitting optimal testing conditions,Grantham said in an e-mail Sunday.The skimmers, which have been idle off the coasts since a spell of bad weather last week kicked up by Hurricane Alex, were on the water along the Louisiana coast over the weekend. Officials with the U.S. Coast Guard are waiting for the weather to improve before sending them out elsewhere.We've got our guys out there and they're docked and ready, but safety is a huge concern for us, especially with the smaller vessels, said Courtnee Ferguson, a spokeswoman for the Joint Information Command in Mobile, Ala.On Sunday, huge barges used to collect oil from skimming vessels were parked at the mouth of Mobile Bay, waiting for conditions to subside as waves rose to about 5 feet high miles offshore.The current spate of bad weather is likely to last well into next week, according to the National Weather Service.This should remain fairly persistent through the next few days, and maybe get a little worse, meteorologist Mike Efferson said.On the shore, beach cleanup crews were making progress on new oil that washed up thanks to the high tides generated by last week's bad weather.In Grand Isle, about 800 people were removing tar balls and liquid oil from seven miles of beach, Coast Guard Cmdr. Randal Ogrydziak said.In a day or two, you wouldn't be able to tell the oil was even there, he said.By Wednesday, Ogrydziak said they should have a machine on the beach that washes sand where the oil washed ashore.

Crews have also been working to put containment boom thrown around by the storms back into place, he said.So far, weather has not slowed drilling on two relief wells meant to finally plug the spill. BP officials have said they're running slightly ahead of schedule on the drilling, but expect weather or other delays. Early to mid-August is still the timeframe for the completion of the drilling. Along with the drilling, the capture and burning of oil and gas at the site of the leaking well has gone on without interruption from the weather. But the choppy seas have delayed the operation of another vessel that officials say will roughly double the amount of oil being collected or burned. The Helix Producer is supposed to connect with the leaking well by a flexible hose that will help it disconnect and reconnect quickly if a hurricane or other major storm forces an evacuation of the site.Coast Guard officials say they're hoping to have the Helix Producer connected to the well and collecting oil by Wednesday.Associated Press Writer Jay Reeves in Dauphin Island, Ala. contributed to this report.

BP launches search for new investors: reports
9:15 AM JULY 4,10

LONDON/DUBAI (Reuters) – Oil major BP Plc is seeking a strategic investor to secure its independence in the face of any takeover attempts as it struggles with a devastating oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico, newspapers said on Sunday.Britain's Sunday Times said the company's advisers were trying to drum up interest among rival oil groups and sovereign wealth funds to take a stake of between 5 and 10 percent in the company at a cost of up to 6 billion pounds ($9.1 billion).Abu Dhabi newspaper The National said BP could get a reprieve from Middle East financial institutions looking to make a strategic investment in the company, citing informed sources.

Proposals from the region have already been submitted to BP advisers in London, the newspaper reported, and could involve Middle Eastern investors purchasing key assets from BP, which has lost more than half its market value since an explosion at the Deepwater Horizon rig on April 20 started the still-gushing leak.The paper said regional financial institutions might also give financial backing to any capital raising that BP might be considering to reinforce its balance sheet following the environmental disaster, which could cost as much as $60 billion to clean up.The report did not indicate which Middle Eastern financial firms issued the proposals or what the size of investments could be.Regional sovereign wealth funds, such as the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), have supported Western companies in times of financial crisis by purchasing stakes in western banks and effectively halting declines in their share prices.Rival oil majors ExxonMobil, Total and Royal Dutch Shell have been mooted as possible bidders.

BP declined to comment on the speculation.

Meanwhile, the Sunday Telegraph reported that BP was facing fresh criticism over its approach to safety as it emerged it did not use an industry standard process, known as a safety case, to assess risk at the Deepwater Horizon rig.A BP spokeswoman confirmed to Reuters that it did not use the procedure, developed in Britain after the Piper Alpha oil rig explosion in 1988, at any of its U.S. wells as there was no legal requirement in the U.S. to use it.BP shares closed down at 322 pence in London on Friday, valuing the business at 60.5 billion pounds.(Reporting by Matt Scuffham and Shaheen Pasha; Editing by Will Waterman)

Hopes ride on giant oil skimmer in Gulf of Mexico By TOM BREEN, Associated Press Writer - JULY 4,10

NEW ORLEANS – The latest hopes are riding on a massive new skimmer to clean oil from near the spewing well in the Gulf of Mexico, while a local Louisiana parish's plan to block the slick has been rejected by federal officials.A 48-hour test of the Taiwanese vessel dubbed A Whale began Saturday and was to continue through Sunday.

TMT Shipping created what is billed as the world's largest oil skimmer by converting an oil tanker after the April 20 explosion sent millions of gallons of crude spilling into the Gulf.The vessel was expected to cruise a 25-square-mile test site just north of the Macondo Deepwater well site, company officials said.The U.S. Coast Guard and BP are waiting to see if the vessel, which is 10 stories high and as long as 3 1/2 football fields, can live up to its makers' promise of being able to process up to 21 million gallons of oil-fouled water a day.The ship works by taking in water through 12 vents, separating the oil and pumping the cleaned seawater back into the Gulf.In many ways, the ship collects water like an actual whale and pumps internally like a human heart,TMT spokesman Bob Grantham said in an e-mail.A Whale is being tested close to the wellhead because officials believe it will be most effective where the oil is thickest rather than closer to shore.The ship arrived in the Gulf on Wednesday, but officials have wanted to test its capability as well as have the federal Environmental Protection Agency sign off on the water it will pump back into the Gulf, which will contain trace amounts of crude.The wait has frustrated some local officials, who say the mammoth skimmer would be a game-changer in keeping oil from reaching vulnerable coastlines.During a Thursday tour of the inlet to Barataria Bay, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said it was exasperating to have A Whale anchored offshore instead of being put to immediate use.They've used the war rhetoric,Jindal said aboard a boat floating in oil-slicked waters near Grand Isle. If this is really a war, they need to be using every resource that makes sense to fight this oil before it comes to our coast.

The governor, who has been outspoken in his criticism of the relief effort, also criticized a decision by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to reject a proposal by Jefferson Parish to build a series of rock dikes to protect the ecologically important Barataria Bay.Parish officials were using a fleet of barges — dubbed the Cajun Navy — as temporary barriers to block the oil, but some was still seeping in. The Corps found that the dike plan was incomplete, lacking a designated agency to remove the barriers, a restoration plan for environmental damage and data to measure any such damage.The Corps took weeks to review the plan only to reject it today — and this denial is another unfortunate example of the federal government's lack of urgency in this war to protect our coast,said Kyle Plotkin, Jindal's press secretary.

Back at the well site, work continued through the weekend to prepare another vessel, the Helix Producer, to hook up to the containment cap at the seafloor and start collecting up to 25,000 barrels a day. The work was delayed by severe weather from Hurricane Alex.If workers are able to hook up the Helix Producer this week, it could double the amount of oil being collected at the well head and then burned or transferred to other tankers.Meanwhile, work is a few days ahead of schedule on two relief wells that BP says are the best chance at stopping the leak, BP America spokesman Daren Beaudo said. But the company is sticking with its early-to-mid-August timeframe for completing the wells because of the uncertainties of hurricane season and the precision needed as the drills get deeper into the ocean floor.

Elsewhere on the Gulf coast, Environmental Protection Agency administrator Lisa Jackson visited Pensacola Beach on Saturday, her first trip to Florida since the explosion and her sixth trip to the Gulf. Jackson said that despite the level of contamination on the beaches, it should be up to local officials to decide whether they should be closed. Officials in Escambia County have posted oil warnings at beaches but not closed them. From a commonsense perspective there is nothing that I am going to be able to tell you in chemical lab that you can't learn about the safety of the water from a bathing purpose by looking at it and smelling it, she said. Reporters pressed Jackson on whether she would wade into the water Saturday based on what she had seen. I would not go into the water today,she said. Associated Press writers Jason Bronis in Barataria Bay, La. and Jessica Gresko in Pensacola Beach, Fla., contributed to this report.

Obama announces $2 billion for solar power By JULIE PACE, Associated Press Writer - JUNLY 3,10 8:00 AM

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama announced Saturday the awarding of nearly $2 billion for new solar plants that he said will create thousands of jobs and increase the country's use of renewable energy sources.Obama disclosed the funding in his weekly radio and online address, saying it is part of his plan to bring new industries to the U.S.We're going to keep competing aggressively to make sure the jobs and industries of the future are taking root right here in America, Obama said.

The two companies that will receive the funds from the president's $862 billion economic stimulus are Abengoa Solar, which will build one of the world's largest solar plants in Arizona, creating 1,600 construction jobs; and Abound Solar Manufacturing, which is building plants in Colorado and Indiana. The Obama administration says those projects will create more than 2,000 construction jobs and 1,500 permanent jobs.Obama's announcement came a day after the Labor Department reported that employers slashed payrolls last month for the first time in six months, driven by the expected end of 225,000 temporary census jobs. Meanwhile, private-sector hiring rose by 83,000 workers.

The unemployment rate dropped to 9.5 percent.

Obama said that while it may take years to bring back all the jobs lost during the recession, the economy is moving in a positive direction. He placed some of the blame for the slow pace of recovery on Republicans, saying GOP lawmakers, are playing the same old Washington games and using their power to hold this relief hostage.Obama has said that to bring the nation's economy back from the brink of a depression, it was necessary to add to the country's debt in the short term.
Republicans have tried to capitalize on that growing sum. Georgia Sen. Saxby Chambliss said in the Republican's weekly address that the country's $13 trillion debt is a national security issue that will leave the U.S. vulnerable and force future generations to pay higher taxes to foot the bill for Democrats' out-of-control spending.

Oil spill claims arriving faster than BP can pay them
Sat Jul 3, 1:31 am ET

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (AFP) – New claims against BP from the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico are pouring in more than twice as fast as the British energy giant is paying them out, US officials said.Analysis by a consulting group hired by Louisiana to track claims and BP payments amid the worst environmental disaster in US history also showed that the claims have risen in dollar amount, and that BP sped up its payouts specifically when the state pressured the company to do so.The group, Cannon Cochran Management Services, Inc, said the total number of claims reported by BP jumped by 170 percent in June, from 30,000 to more than 85,000, and that by June 30 there were nearly 2.5 times as many new claims as there were checks issued to claimants.It said BP added 441 new claims adjusters during the period, for a total of 951 -- an increase of 87 percent, about half the percentage increase in new claims.The state believes that claims processing will be detrimentally impacted unless BP increases its number of claims adjusters, Department of Children and Family Services Secretary Kristy Nichols said in a statement.BP must immediately address its apparent inability to keep up with daily incoming claims and pay claimants in a timely manner, said Nichols, who is overseeing Louisiana's response to the BP claims process.The Louisiana statement also said that BP check numbers and total claim payouts spiked in the days immediately after state officials leaned on BP to make the process more efficient.

Within a week of the extra pressure, BP issued the most checks of the month, 2,500 on June 21, but by June 26 the number dropped to fewer than 500 checks.Average daily payouts were around two million dollars per day from June 1 to June 15, then spiked to around 11 million dollars on June 16 before falling back down to two million per day in the last week in June.The head of BP Claims, Daryl Willis, has said several times in the press that the transition of the BP claims process to the independent commission set up by the federal government wouldn't affect the speed of payments, but we are seeing just the opposite, said Nichols.The state needs BP to stand up to its word and put these claims payments into the hands of Louisianians who are struggling because of the oil spill.The analysis showed that the average cost for loss of income, property and commercial damage claims is extremely low and indicates that many claimants had not received any payments by the end of June, said Nichols.

This is extremely distressing; families and businesses are depending on those payments to keep roofs overhead and food on tables, Nichols said.The average claim payout in Louisiana is 3,500 dollars.BP's total payouts in June rose significantly, from around 40 million dollars at the beginning of the month to more than 130 million by the end.At US President Barack Obama's urging, BP set up a 20-billion-dollar claims fund with the aim of paying every eligible claim brought by victims of the disaster.

Volunteers ready but left out of spill cleanup By TOM BREEN, Associated Press Writer - JULY 2,10 8:00 AM

NEW ORLEANS – BP and the Obama administration face mounting complaints that they are ignoring foreign offers of equipment and making little use of the fishing boats and volunteers available to help clean up what may now be the biggest spill ever in the Gulf of Mexico.The Coast Guard said there have been 107 offers of help from 44 nations, ranging from technical advice to skimmer boats and booms. But many of those offers are weeks old, and only a small number have been accepted, with the vast majority still under review, according to a list kept by the State Department.And in recent days and weeks, for reasons BP has never explained, many fishing boats hired for the cleanup have done a lot of waiting around.A report prepared by investigators with the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform for Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., detailed one case in which the Dutch government offered April 30 to provide four oil skimmers that collectively could process more than 6 million gallons of oily water a day. It took seven weeks for the U.S. to approve the offer.White House spokesman Robert Gibbs on Thursday scorned the idea that somehow it took the command 70 days to accept international help.That is a myth, he declared,that has been debunked literally hundreds of times.He said 24 foreign vessels were operating in the Gulf before this week. He did not specifically address the Dutch vessels.

The help is needed. Based on some government estimates, more than 140 million gallons of crude have now spewed from the bottom of the sea since the April 20 explosion that killed 11 workers on the Deepwater Horizon oil platform, eclipsing the 1979-80 disaster off Mexico that had long stood as the worst in the Gulf.Still, more than 2,000 boats have signed up for oil-spill duty under BP's Vessel of Opportunity program. The company pays boat captains and their crews a flat fee based on the size of the vessel, ranging from $1,200 to $3,000 a day, plus a $200 fee for each crew member who works an eight-hour day.Rocky Ditcharo, a shrimp dock owner in Buras, La., said many fishermen hired by BP have told him that they often park their boats on the shore while they wait for word on where to go.They just wait because there's no direction, Ditcharo said. He said he believes BP has hired many boat captains to show numbers.But they're really not doing anything, he added. He also said he suspects the company is hiring out-of-work fishermen to placate them with paychecks.Chris Mehlig, a fisherman from Louisiana's St. Bernard Parish, said he is getting eight days of work a month, laying down containment boom, running supplies to other boats or simply being on call dockside in case he is needed.I wish I had more days than that, but that's the way things are,he said.Billy Nungesser, president of Louisiana's hard-hit Plaquemines Parish, said BP and the Coast Guard provided a map of the exact locations of 140 skimmers that were supposedly cleaning up the oil. But he said that after he repeatedly asked to be flown over the area so he could see them at work, officials told him only 31 skimmers were on the job.I'm trying to work with these guys, he said. But everything they're giving me is a wish list, not what's actually out there.

A BP spokesman declined to comment.

Newly retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the government's point man for the response effort, bristled at some of the accusations in Issa's report. I think we've been pretty transparent throughout this,Allen said at the White House. He disputed any suggestion that there aren't enough skimmers being put on the water, saying the spill area is so big that there are bound to be areas with no vessels.The Coast Guard said there are roughly 550 skimmers working in the Gulf, with 250 or so in Louisiana waters, 136 in Florida, 87 in Alabama and 76 in Mississippi, although stormy weather in recent days has kept the many of the vessels from working.The frustration extends to the volunteers who have offered to clean beaches and wetlands. More than 20,000 volunteers have signed up to help in Florida, Alabama and Mississippi, yet fewer than one in six has received an assignment or the training required to take part in some chores, according to BP.The executive director of the Alabama Coastal Foundation, Bethany Kraft, said many people who volunteered are frustrated and angry that no one has called on them for help.You see this unfolding before your eyes and you have this sense that you can't do anything,she said.To watch this happen in our backyard and not be able to help is hard.Some government estimates put the amount of oil spilled at 160 million gallons. That calculation was arrived at by using the rate of 2.5 million gallons a day all the way back to the oil rig explosion. The AP, relying on scientists who advised the government on flow rate, bases its estimates on a lower rate of 2.1 million gallons a day up until June 3, when a cut to the well pipe increased flow.

By either estimate, the disaster would eclipse the Ixtoc disaster in the Gulf two decades ago and rank as the biggest offshore oil spill during peacetime. The biggest spill in history happened in 1991 during the Persian Gulf War, when Iraqi forces opened valves at a terminal and dumped about 336 million gallons of oil. The total in the Gulf disaster is significant because BP is likely to be fined per gallon spilled. Also, scientists say an accurate figure is needed to calculate how much oil may be hidden below the surface, doing damage to the deep-sea environment.It's a mind-boggling number any way you cut it,said Ed Overton, a Louisiana State University environmental studies professor.It'll be well beyond Ixtoc by the time it's finished.Associated Press writers Jay Reeves in Orange Beach, Ala., Michael Kunzelman in New Orleans, Harry R. Weber in Houston, and Seth Borenstein, Erica Werner and Eileen Sullivan in Washington contributed to this report.

OPINION BP = Beyond Petrolium or Beyond Ponzi? The architects of cap and trade included former BP CEO. The sales of stock on the dawn of the BP Gulf disaster were of the oil portions of the company, not the solar/wind portions. Goldman Sachs and BP stand to make trillions through cap and trade. Obama is the top recipient of BP PAC and individual money over the last 20 years.by A. True Ott, Ph.D.

Some have called BP (aka British Petroleum, or Beyond Petroleum) Beyond Pathetic. Perhaps in light of this expose' paper, it should today be re-named and re-branded Beyond Ponzi, and CRIMINAL CHARGES should immediately be filed AGAINST ALL BP EXECUTIVES. Connect the following timelines and readily available information dots – and then decide for yourself.First of all, let's define a Ponzi scheme. The term itself originated from the escapades of a master swindler by the name of Charles Ponzi, an Italian Mafioso who began luring investors by promising large financial returns based on bogus international postal credits during the roaring 20's.Ponzi quickly became a multi-millionaire, living a lavish lifestyle on other people's funds. He was a master at robbing Peter to pay Paul – basing his entire pyramid on non-existent international credits that he alone invented and accounted for. To be completely successful, a modern Beyond-Ponzi Scheme must have the following components: 1. A Smooth-talking salesman who appears totally credible in every way. 2. Complete control over the credits that is the basis for the scam 3. Authoritarian figures placed in government (i.e. police and regulators) that have been bribed to never investigate, nor ever to prosecute the swindlers, and 4. Total control over all INFORMATION and PROPAGANDA released to the media.

CAP AND TRADE = THE ULTIMATE PONZI SCHEME

Friends, nothing better fits the description of a Ponzi Scheme than the so-called Cap and Trade program. It is based on a lot of questionable and cooked data about anthropogenic climate change, which was exposed last Fall.It's not that humans don't have an impact on the environment or shouldn't take care to live sustainably, for obviously they do and should. But much of this science has become politicized, twisted and exaggerated in order to give impetus to garnering adequate support for such drastic measures.Cap and Trade legislation, (most notably the Waxman-Markey bill, H.R. 2454 which passed the U.S. House last year) is very close to becoming LAW! All that appears to be needed for clearing the Senate is a final, camel-breaking straw in the form of a massive ecological disaster to convince gullible Americans that such an extreme measure as cap and trade is necessary to speed our recovery from our oil addiction -- a false solution to a true problem.

WHERE DID THE PONZI-BASED CAP AND TRADE IDEA FIRST ORIGINATE??

The architects of cap and trade include Mr. Ken Lay, ENRON CEO, and Lord John Browne, the Baron Browne of Madingley; the CEO of British Petroleum (who was forced out of BP in 2007 following a scandal over committing perjury in testimony concerning his young homosexual partner/lover Chevalier.) In August, 1997, Lay and Browne met with President Bill Clinton and VP Al Gore in the Oval Office – and therein conspired and developed official U.S. administration positions for the Kyoto Japan summit. Of course, the Kyoto summit resulted in an international treaty to regulate greenhouse gas emissions by means of carbon credits issued by Browne, Lay, and Goldman Sachs!! The U.S. Senate voted 95-0 NOT to ratify the Kyoto Treaty in 1997, but the cap and trade proponents have persisted.. Remember what Charles Ponzi did back in 1920? He created a false postal credit system that he sold to investors. (Taking money from Peter, to pay a portion out to Paul.) So-called carbon credits issued by Browne, Lay, and promoted by lackeys such as Al (inventor of the internet) Gore are no different.

Here's basically how BP, Obama, and Gore's Cap and Trade Ponzi-scheme is designed to work. The conspirators convince the federal government to enact legislation that places a ceiling or Cap on PRIVATE-SECTOR EMISSIONS OF CO2 as well as other greenhouse gases. Each private business, and citizen, would then be given a FIXED QUANTITY of something called carbon credits based on the make and model of car driven, or the type of A/C or furnace in the home, or the type of factory equipment utilized. For instance, one credit would be issued for a small, fuel-efficient hybrid vehicle as the benchmark. If somebody preferred to drive an older SUV, then that person would have to purchase additional credits – or face paying stiff fines or even jail sentences for non-compliance. This is all in the name of saving the planet of course.What this Ponzi-scheme does is create a false, artificial scarcity in the right to produce energy. You see, the carbon credits sold by government-sanctioned brokerage firms will then be transferred to companies in payment for their green products such as solar panels, natural gas (which BP controls) and wind turbines. The green companies will literally earn TRILLIONS in windfall profits. Of course, Goldman-Sachs will be the controlling carbon credit brokerage house – and will earn a hefty commission for each credit sold or traded.Following his meeting in the Clinton/Gore White House, Lord Browne delivered a bombshell speech at Stanford University on May 19, 1997. There, BP employees arranged BP-made solar panels (BP is the largest manufacturer of solar panels and wind turbines in the world) in a massive circle around the open-air Frost amphitheater. Browne then proudly declared to the world: On this day, a Big Oil company broke ranks with the rest of the oil industry. We took our first tentative steps to going green.Soon thereafter, with a huge splash of publicity, Lord Browne launched a massive rebranding campaign. What used to be British Petroleum became merely BP – as Browne declared means Beyond Petroleum. The corporate logo then went from the classic Masonic shield, to a helios symbol – a green and yellow sunburst. (The HELIOS is a figure of Greek mythology meaning, literally, THE SUN GOD.)

Writing in his book, Beyond Business, the Lord Browne declares: The new helios logo and the line Beyond Petroleum expressed the new identity of the company. They gave a strong message that BP was intent on becoming a new type of global energy enterprise. We meant to tell people that we were ready to do more than they would expect when it came to confronting the difficult issues, such as the conflict between energy and environmental needs.Yes indeed. Cap and Trade is BP's baby and they are uniquely positioned to make TRILLIONS of dollars as soon as it is adopted worldwide. It has taken them 13 years to accomplish this – but all they needed was a massive spill of epic proportions to finalize their plan. In his book, Lord Browne admits: "In order to know WHERE to reduce carbon emissions, we wanted to develop a simple EMISSIONS TRADING SCHEME within the company. It would become the first of its kind. And the person instrumental in helping us set this up was Fred Krupp, head of the Environmental Defense Fund, an environment NGO (non-government organization). We had come full circle. This NGO had virtually single-handedly halted the construction of the Trans Alaska Pipeline in the early 1970's.Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO) finally was forced to sell its holdings to BP – who now owns the T.A.P. Clearly, Lord Browne and BP – the world's 4th largest multi-national corporation, is a well-camouflaged viper hiding in the tall grass.

ENTER BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

Follow BP's green money folks, and things start to become a bit more in focus. What good is a corporate rebranding as a wonderful green company without a PR firm to sell it? BP and Lord Browne spent over $200 million to PR firms including Greenberg Quinland Rosner that brags on its website that they helped BP remake itself as a company focused on transcending the energy-environment paradox.It is also very interesting that Stanley Greenberg enjoys a very cozy relationship with Obama and his chief of staff, Raum Emanuel.Shortly after Obama's inauguration, Andrew Malcolm of the L.A. Times reported: Eyebrows rose slightly upon word that, as a House member, Emanuel had LIVED FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS RENT-FREE in a D.C. apartment of Democratic colleague Rep. Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut and her husband, Stanley Greenberg ----- a PRIME ARCHITECT OF BP'S REBRANDING DRIVE AS A GREEN PETROLEUM COMPANY.Malcolm also notes: BP and its folks were SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTORS to the record $750 million dollar war chest of Barack Obama's 2007-2008 campaign. Moreover, according to Politico, Obama is the top recipient of BP PAC and INDIVIDUAL MONEY over the last 20 years.Little wonder then, that after touring the oil-contaminated beaches of Louisiana on June 15, Obama declared to the nation: The time to embrace a CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE IS NOW. Of course, a clean energy future is synonymous with Cap and Trade legislation.I submit that there is nothing the socialist Cap and Trade shysters (Lord Brown, Al Gore, George Soros, Maurice Strong et. al.) love more than a nice, juicy, oil-spill disaster to further their agenda. Also, as Raum Emanuel has often stated, they will never let a perfectly good disaster go to waste but will milk it to the max. Thus, logic demands that the bigger the disaster, the more powerful will be the impact (and thus the eventual profits) on ALL ASPECTS of Cap and Trade. This is little more than a monumental SOCIALISTIC TOOL designed to redistribute the world's wealth and place more of it into the pockets of a select group of world elitists.

While BP apparently is poised to benefit handsomely from a move away from oil, the other conspiratorial players who have used oil as their tool for control, might not be so happy about this move; and we could see some in-fighting among the power brokers as they vie for control over the planet -- all while losing their grip as their days are numbered.A new day is dawning, in which such corruption will not be tolerated, but enlightened people will embrace technologies that truly reduce our footprint on the planet -- and increase our individual empowerment by providing power at the point of use -- free energy, abundance, true sustainability. The rising generation will not persist in raping the planet in order to enjoy comforts today, but will seek to live in harmony with nature, while living comfortably from her replenishable wealth.
