This is another installment in my "corporate greed" rant...As if reaching 86 year of age is not enough, a close friend of mine just got another present in her mail. The "present" was a little notice from Chase, saying that her APR (Annual Percentage Rate) was going up on her credit card. The bank cited that "We are sending you this notice to let you know that we will be making some changes to

I guess the real news is all of the specific data they are including in this report.Seraph"KPA Supreme Command Orders All Its Servicepersons to Be Fully Combat Ready-Pyongyang, March 9 (KCNA)

Iran has reportedly just tested an air to ground missile. This missile has a range of about 70 miles or 110 km and is to be carried primarily by Iranian fighter jets. Iran announced that it is to be used against attacks from ships near to Iran. That, of course, is only one use. The outspoken enemy of Iran, the government of Israel, is quaking in their boots at the thought that Iran would have

So what about this "financial crisis?" Who started it, why and what do they gain? As, said and said across the media and by politicians, "plenty of blame to go around," but wait... Executives still jet around and banksters are on lavish paid vacations. So what could be going on in the background?? It is just good old fashioned GREED... I wrote earlier about the oil industry and now here I go with

Recently I watched a mini-series on PBS television where the fictional theme of the show was England in the not too distant future. In this future was a total police state where everyone was constantly and completely monitored. Citizens would be stopped on the streets and their hand scanned for identification. Instantly the police could know everything about the person being scanned. If that

Peter King of New York, shown above, has introduced a bill,H.R.414 the Camera Phone Predator Alert Act, to congress that would make it mandatory for new camera phones to make a sound when a photo is taken... Come on, are there not more pressing issues? This is a man that likes to re-arrange the deck chairs on the Titanic and wants you to stay on board to hear the band

Dumb and Dumber should be the new name for Washington, DC. Thanks be that DC is not a State because then we would have to take them seriously... When the founders conceived the Territory of Columbia, now known as the District of Columbia, it was intended only to be a central military base for the defense of the union and nothing more. After all, DC is only a ten mile square. So what went wrong???

Photos, wikipedia.orgIn the never ending quest for more consumer, business and government dollars, oil companies are reporting record profits for 2008. While almost all other companies are struggling and or going under lately, these companies thrive. One reason, of course, is we all need fuel and fuel bi-products. The other more blatant reason appears to be outright price gouging. If you go to
