Dr. Klaus Lackner does a wonderful job describing our environmental
problems.
“Before the industrial revolution the atmosphere had 280 parts per
million of carbon dioxide. Today, the earths atmosphere has 370 parts
per million. The difference is accounted to fossil fuels consumed over
the last 200 years.
The world is consuming 6 billion tons of carbon in the form of oil, coal,
and gas every year. In return the world is emitting 22 billion tons of
carbon every year. In perspective, the entire world of trees emits 600
billion tons of carbon. In the course of a hundred years we are
emitting as much carbon as all the trees in the world.”
As we approached midway through the twentieth century only fossil
fuels controlled the majority of the world economies. By imposing limits
on U.S. emission of fossil fuels, foreign powers would gain control of
our “Commanding Heights”. These foreign powers could be able to
dictate our production levels and thereby controlling our economy.
It would be unreasonable to expect the Kyoto Protocol to solve global
warming. In fact after fifteen years, the U.S. would have spent billions
of dollars and global warming would still be a problem. Kyoto tries
limiting the symptoms of the problem. The problem is that our
technology is incapable of stopping greenhouse emissions. The
problem will be solved when technology can competitively build zero
emission power plants and vehicles. The U.S. needs to invest their
money into solving the problem and not delaying the symptoms of the
problem. The focus should be on innovation, research and
development, and new technology.

Soon after 9/11, an FBI informant made an alarming claim: Osama
bin Laden's deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, had visited the town of Lodi,
Calif. in the late 1990s and attended a mosque there. Moreover, two
Pakistani imams preaching at the mosque came from a conservative
Islamic school, or madrassa, linked to the former Taliban regime in
Afghanistan. According to McGregor Scott, the U.S. Attorney who led
the federal anti-terror investigation, this was "an attempt by a group
of radical Islamic religious figures to come to this country and …
establish a madrassa to serve as a recruiting ground."
However, a deeper look at the evidence creates uncertainty about
what kind of threat actually did exist in Lodi and provides a case
study of America's response to the threat of domestic terrorism. In
"The Enemy Within," FRONTLINE and New York Times reporter
Lowell Bergman examines the Lodi case and interviews FBI and

Security Command in northern Virginia, Colonel Mike Tanksley

tyrant out of some modern Babylon (Baghdad, Tehran or Tripoli, for
example) threatens an American ally (Riyadh, Cairo, Jerusalem) the
U.S. doesn't immediately send legions of soldiers or fleets of

setting goals to accomplish the vision. Even though many people around
Rudy doubted his vision, they never doubted his passion and drive to
accomplish his goals. This story is a testament to anyone seeking a dream.
Dreams come true if you set goals and have the passion to accomplish
them.
From being told he's not college material in high school to being accepted
into Notre Dame is a great story in itself.

| Former CEO of General Electric |
| Stocks in Focus General Dynamics (GD) $86 Per Share I'm giving a strong buy alert on General Dynamics (GD). Relative Strength Index 38, Money Flow Index 0.29. (January 7th, 2008) Applied Digital Solutions (DIGA) $0.68 Per Share ADSX and DOC completed a merger on Jan.1st, 2008. ADSX and DOC were both worth about $25 million in market capitalization. This places the stock at $50 million total market cap, or $0.70 per share. About 71 million shares are outstanding. However, the merger will make the company run more efficient. I expect the company to be profitable within 3 to 5 quarters. (JAN 2008) Ford Motor Corp. (F) $6.13 Per Share Good CEO, trying to turn around the Titanic. Maybe the next Louis Gerstner. Sony Corp. (SNE) $32.94 Per Share Reached target of $60 dollars per share on May 22nd, 2007. Metal Storm (MTSX) $2.20 Per Share (Solution for Metal Storm) IMAX Corp. (IMAX) $6.12 Per Share Possible Takeover Candidate, I think Disney would be the perfect candidate. This stock is ready to takeoff! XM Satellite Radio (XMSR) $11.46 Per Share Poor leadership has placed XM's financial statements in dispear. Both XM and SIrius need each other to dig themselves out of their hole. The merger may never happen due to monopoly concerns. I expect Disney or Viacom to acquire either XM or Sirius. General Motors (GM) $23.66 Per Share No solutions to generate profits, only revenue. I expect GM to go up in the next few weeks, but the long-term still looks slow. (Jan. 7th, 2008) ABX Air (ABXA) $3.69 Per Share Gas prices and low margins really effect this stock. When jet fuel drops much lower, buy ABX Air. Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) $2.94 Per Share Sirius Satellite Radio spends too much cash and is finally reflecting in the stock price. Both XM and SIrius need each other to dig themselves out of their hole. The merger may never happen due to monopoly concerns. I expect Disney or Viacom to acquire either XM or Sirius. Zion Oil (ZN) $6.50 Per Share I expect the price to drop below $6 dollars, unless major news breaks. TowerStream (TWER) $2.95 Per Share Up and coming WiMax communications company. Watch to see how they do in the Jan. 2008 FCC bid for digital airwaves. Some of the largest companies in the world are bidding against TowerStream. Ivanhoe (IVAN) $1.50 Per Share Their future looks better in 2009. ECD Ovonics (ENER) $29.58 Per Share I like their future. iRobot (IRBT) $17.40 Per Share Good Takeover Target. Company is going to need to keep developing new products to maintain demand. R&D is very important! WalMart (WMT) $45.72 Per Share Relative Strength Index 35, Money Flow Index 0.57, Walmart will jump up 48 or 49 by February 2008. Spectrum Control Inc. (SPEC) $9.76 Per Share Relative Strength Index 17, Money Flow Index 0.25, The recent drop was an overreaction. The stock price will rebound soon. |
