HALLIBURTON WINS CONTRACT TO RECONSTRUCT CHENEY'S REPUTATION

At $42 Billion, Largest Contract of its Kind, Company Says

The Halliburton Company announced today that it had won a $42 billion no-bid
contract from the U.S. government to reconstruct the reputation of Vice
President Dick Cheney.

While Halliburton has been known for massive reconstruction projects in such
war-torn nations as Iraq, the $42 billion contract represents the first time
that the company has been employed to put its reconstruction expertise to
work on one embattled human being.

At the White House, spokesman Scott McClellan defended the $42 billion price
tag for the reconstruction effort, telling reporters, Given how much work
Dick Cheney's reputation is going to take to rebuild, at the end of the day
that $42 billion contract is going to look like a bargain.

Mr. McClellan likened the state of Mr. Cheney's reputation to conditions on
the ground in Iraq, only worse.

But even as Halliburton began gearing up for the daunting task of
reconstructing the vice president's reputation, an unlikely critic of the
plan, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R-Ill), questioned the wisdom of
even attempting to rebuild Dick Cheney.

Rep. Hastert said that based on what he had seen of Dick Cheney's reputation
in recent days, it reminded him of the city of New Orleans after Hurricane
Katrina, making him wonder whether the vice president could be rebuilt at
all.

It looks like a lot of Dick Cheney could be bulldozed, Rep. Hastert said.

Elsewhere, breaking with a longstanding tradition set by his predecessor,
Alan Greenspan, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke delivered his first
economic report to Congress in English.

[scifinoir2] Glacier Melt Could Signal Faster Rise in Ocean Levels

Glacier Melt Could Signal Faster Rise in Ocean Levels

By Shankar Vedantam
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, February 17, 2006; A01

Greenland's glaciers are melting into the sea twice as fast as previously
believed, the result of a warming trend that renders obsolete predictions of
how quickly Earth's oceans will rise over the next century, scientists said
yesterday.

The new data come from satellite imagery and give fresh urgency to worries
about the role of human activity in global warming. The Greenland data are
mirrored by findings from Bolivia to the Himalayas, scientists said, noting
that rising sea levels threaten widespread flooding and severe storm damage
in low-lying areas worldwide.

The scientists said they do not yet understand the precise mechanism causing
glaciers to flow and melt more rapidly, but they said the changes in
Greenland were unambiguous -- and accelerating: In 1996, the amount of water
produced by melting ice in Greenland was about 90 times the amount consumed
by Los Angeles in a year. Last year, the melted ice amounted to 225 times
the volume of water that city uses annually.

We are witnessing enormous changes, and it will take some time before we
understand how it happened, although it is clearly a result of warming
around the glaciers, said Eric Rignot, a scientist at the California
Institute of Technology's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

The Greenland study is the latest of several in recent months that have
found evidence that rising temperatures are affecting not only Earth's ice
sheets but also such things as plant and animal habitats, coral reefs'
health, hurricane severity, droughts, and globe-girdling currents that drive
regional climates.

The ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are among the largest reservoirs
of fresh water on Earth, and their fate is expected to be a major factor in
determining how much the oceans will rise. Rignot and University of Kansas
scientist Pannir Kanagaratnam, who published their findings yesterday in the
journal Science, declined to guess how much the faster melting would raise
sea levels but said current estimates of around 20 inches over the next
century are probably too low.

While sea-level increases of a few feet may not sound like very much, they
could have profound consequences on flood-prone countries such as Bangladesh
and trigger severe weather around the world.

The implications are global, said Julian Dowdeswell, a glacier expert at
the University of Cambridge in England who reviewed the new paper for
Science. We are not talking about walking along the sea front on a nice
summer day, we are talking of the worst storm settings, the biggest storm
surges . . . you are upping the probability major storms will take place.

The study also highlights how seemingly small changes in temperature can
have extensive effects. Where glaciers in Greenland were once traveling
around four miles per year, they are now moving twice as fast. While it is
possible that increased precipitation in northern Greenland is somehow
compensating for the melting in the south, the scientists said that is
unlikely.

There are multiple ways warming might be causing glaciers to accelerate. The
scientists said increased temperatures may loosen the grip that glaciers
have on underlying bedrock, or melt away floating shelves along the shore
that can hold ice in place.

Whatever the mechanism, the phenomenon seems widespread. At a news
conference organized by the American Association for the Advancement of
Science at its annual meeting in St. Louis, glacier scientists Vladimir
Aizen from the University of Idaho and Gino Casassa of Chile's Centro de
Estudios Cientificos said they were seeing the same thing happen to glaciers
in the Himalayas and South America.

Glaciers have retreated systematically and in an accelerated fashion in the
last few decades, Casassa said. One glacier that provided Bolivia with its
only ski slope five years ago has splintered into three and cannot be used
for skiing, the scientist added.

Rapid melting of Himalayan glaciers also raises concerns for the large
portion of humankind that gets its fresh water from glacier-fed rivers in
South Asia, Aizen noted.

Most climate scientists believe a major cause for Earth's warming climate is
increased emissions of greenhouse gases as a result of burning fossil fuels,
largely in the United States and other wealthy, industrialized nations such
as those of western Europe but increasingly in rapidly developing nations
such as China and India as well. Carbon dioxide and several other gases trap
the sun's heat and raise atmospheric temperature.

This study underscores the need to take swift, meaningful actions at home
and abroad to address climate change, said Vicki Arroyo, director of policy
analysis at the Pew Center on Global Climate Change.

The data highlight the lack of meaningful U.S. policy, she added: This is
the kind of study that should make people stay awake at night wondering what

[scifinoir2] Eva Green cast as new Bond Girl

2006-02-17 Thread KeithBJohnson
Relatively unknown Eva Green is the next Bond Girl.  She played Orlando 
Bloom's love interest in Kingdom of Heaven, the sister of the young ruler who 
had leprosy. I've only seen her in that role, where she had a sadness and 
vulnerability, but underlying strength. It'll be interesting to see if they 
write her as a stronger character, though no one's probably going to touch the 
toughness of my girl Michelle Yeoh!  I must say, I'm at least glad they got a 
lady with raven locks, instead of the more typical (but pretty) blondes Olivia 
Wilde and Kimberly Davies that Hollywood still favours. Green has more of the 
international look I'd like to see in a Bond lady.  I still think they missed a 
chance by not going with Dagmara Dominczyk!
http://images.google.com/images?hl=enq=eva%20greensa=Ntab=wi
Makers of the upcoming James Bond movie Casino Royale have cast little-known 
French actress Eva Green as the next femme fatale to pair up with British agent 
007, distributor Columbia Pictures said on Thursday. Green, 25, who made her 
2003 film debut in The Dreamers, about a French brother and sister who 
befriend a young American during the Paris student riots of 1968, will play the 
enticing Vesper Lynd opposite English actor Daniel Craig in his first 
performance as Bond. Last year, she appeared in the big-screen crusades drama 
Kingdom of Heaven.
In landing the coveted role of the next Bond girl, the French actress edged 
out a list of contenders reported in the Hollywood trade press to have included 
Oscar winner Charlize Theron, as well as Thandie Newton, Olivia Wilde and 
Kimberly Davies.  The Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE - news).-owned studio also announced 
that Danish-born actor Mads Mikkelsen had signed on to play Bond's villainous 
nemesis Le Chiffre. American actor Jeffrey Wright, who co-starred in Syriana, 
has joined the Casino Royale cast as undercover CIA agent Felix Leiter.
Production on Casino Royale, the 21st movie in the multibillion-dollar Bond 
film franchise that began with Dr. No in 1962, started on January 21 in 
Prague, and the movie is slated for release in November. Other production 
locations will include the Bahamas, Italy and Britain. The film, directed by 
Martin Campbell, is being adapted from the 1953 Ian Fleming novel that 
introduced the Bond character.
Craig, the latest actor to fill the tuxedo of the British spy with a license to 
kill, was named in October to assume the role from Pierce Brosnan, who starred 
in the last four Bond movies. The most recent film, 2002's Die Another Day, 
which paired Brosnan with actress Halle Berry, grossed more than $425 million 
in worldwide ticket sales.

Actually, the weather is mild in the area we live. It never gets hotter than
86.   But from what I hear about the weather on the east coast last week,
you guys would have been rolling your eyes at my complaints about it being
cold earlier this week.

The move started off as a joke.  We had been talking about moving to the
west coast.  My husband was reading an article on the open source software
movement in Brazil in Wired Magazine a few weeks before the Election. His
father was a diplomat and he has lived or traveled extensively in Latin
America, Africa, the Middle East, Europe and Asia. So, going to live in some
exotic location appeals to him.  Anyway, we are liberals and had been
freaking out over all the stuff the Bush administration had been doing, so I
jokingly told him that if Kerry lost lets move our business to Brazil.

I started researching start up companies setting up expatriate business
operations and how cheap it was to live in developing countries.  After the
election, and my research showing how much our cost of living would go down,
we started talking seriously about it.

While we were leaning toward moving to brazil, we looked at Costa Rica (we
have friends that did it there), Malaysia (some other friends there) and
about six other countries.  Mexico was among them.

Over time it went from our second choice to our first choice.  I'm
relatively sure we are going to stay, at least for a while.

[scifinoir2] New Company Joins the Space Tourism Race

2006-02-17 Thread Brent Wodehouse

New Company Joins the Space Tourism Race

By JOHN SCHWARTZ

Published: February 17, 2006


Now it's a space race.

The space tourism industry, its millionaire would-be passengers
impatiently tapping on their Platinum cards, just got a little more
crowded, with the announcement late Thursday of a new rocket development
company.

Hamid and Anousheh Ansari, telecommunications entrepreneurs from Texas who
helped fund the Ansari X Prize competition, have joined with Space
Adventures Ltd., the company that put the first paying passengers into
orbit through alliances with the Russian space program, to develop
passenger spacecraft for suborbital flights. The vehicles would be
designed by a Russian company, the Myasishchev Design Bureau, and the
first ships could be ready before 2008, said Hamid Ansari.

Also, Space Adventures announced today that it will develop a $265 million
spaceport in the United Arab Emirates, with an initial $30 million
investment from the government of Ras al Khaimah, the emirate where the
spaceport will be located. Eric Anderson, president and chief executive of
Space Adventures ,said Singapore would soon announce spaceport plans of
its own.

The result, Mr. Anderson said, is a big moment for the industry.

Drawing a parallel to the commercial aircraft industry, he said, We're
setting up the 'Boeing' to build and manufacture these space ships, and
added,  there are two airlines ready to buy these spaceships.

The 2008 delivery date, if met, could put the Ansari company, Prodea,
ahead of Sir Richard Branson's much-publicized efforts to send paying
passengers to space through his company, Virgin Galactic, on ships created
by Burt Rutan, the designer of SpaceShipOne, the little craft that won the
X Prize competition.

The new venture is being announced at a busy time for the fledgling space
tourism industry. This week, New Mexico's legislature authorized $100
million in spending in fiscal years 2007, 2008 and 2009 to build a
spaceport. The state will become the world headquarters for Mr. Branson's
Virgin Galactic, as well as the home of the annual X Prize Cup, an annual
rocket event that is to begin this October, and which will feature races
by rocket-powered aircraft in what has been dubbed the Rocket Racing
League.

A rivalry between Virgin and the new effort will be a healthy one, Mr.
Ansari said, because the No. 1 reason for success is competition. The
Russian partners, he said, are known for design that is simple, reliable
and economical: They know the more stuff you have in there the more
potential you have for things to go wrong.

A suborbital flight, like the first United States Mercury space flights in
the 1960's, would shoot more than 65 miles above the earth and return
along a parabolic route. The energies required to reach orbit, and the
risks of re-entering the atmosphere, involve far greater technical
challenges.

The first privately funded vehicle to send a person past the cusp of space
was SpaceShipOne, a craft created by the designer Burt Rutan and paid for
by Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft. After that ship made three
successful flights and won the $10 million Ansari X Prize in October 2004,
Sir Richard Branson commissioned Mr. Rutan to develop a larger
SpaceShipTwo for his own spacefaring company, Virgin Galactic.

Federal technology export restrictions, however, could keep the spacecraft
designed by Mr. Rutan from being used outside of the United States. And
that creates an opportunity for the Russian-designed craft, said Dr. Peter
Diamandis, a founder of the X Prize foundation and a creator of several
space-related businesses, said the competition was the sign of a real
industry aborning. I think we are entering a new era of personal space
flight, he said. Competition drives reliability up and price down.

Will Whitehorn, the president of Virgin Galactic, said that 157 people
have put down deposits totaling $12.2 million to fly in Mr. Rutan's craft,
which should be in test flights by the end of next year and could be
flying commercially by late 2008.

He said that he was confident that his company's efforts would be
successful despite the new entrants and any possible restrictions on
selling the vehicles outside of the United States.

The best place to start a business like this is the United States because
that's where three-quarters of the customers are at the moment, he said.

Of his new competitors, he said, I wish them luck.

[scifinoir2] My Space Sci fi Noir?

2006-02-17 Thread Bosco Bosco
Hey does anyone else here crack out on myspace?

I am hooked on it like no other interwebamajig thing I have ever
done. 

Bosco



I got friends who are in prison and Friends who are dead.
I'm gonna tell ya something that I've often said.

You know these things that happen,
That's just the way it's supposed to be.
And I can't help but wonder,
Don't ya know it coulda been me.

I've started creating an account, and moved around it a bit, but it
overall didn't appeal to me. Might be the unsolicitated invites from
people sending nekkid pictures of themselves to me. It's good for casual
conversation and fun debates I guess. What do you love so much about it?

I have found many old friends and I can pimp my business which is
good. It's like old home week on the web. I've had a blast with it
and I like the ways you can personalize your page and I have actually
been using the blog. I never journaled or blogged before with
regularity. It's fun fun fun.

FYI for everyone who has not heard it: Robert Randolph and The Family
Band is one of the greatest musical experiences on the face of the
earth.
