Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) announced he would move to force a vote next week on his resolution calling for the impeachment of Vice President Dick Cheney.
“The momentum is building for impeachment,” Kucinich said in a statement on his Web site. “Millions of citizens across the nation are demanding Congress rein in the Vice President’s abuse of power.
Kucinich said he plans to introduce a privileged resolution, which would have priority for a House floor vote, on Nov. 6. A vote on the measure would be required within two days.

OT: The City was swept by rumours yesterday that another British bank was in trouble after Northern Rock indicated it was not the only bank borrowing from the Bank of England's rescue fund.
Northern Rock has borrowed only £18bn of the £23bn lent by the Bank of England from its emergency loan fund, leading to speculation that other British banks need £5bn of extra funds to cope with the global credit crunch.
The chairman of the Newcastle-based bank confirmed the level of borrowing from the central bank was below £20bn in an interview with the Newcastle Journal. Sources close to Northern Rock indicated the figure was closer to £18bn as the need for borrowing in the last few weeks had been lower than the scramble for funds in the immediate aftermath of the bank's near-collapse in September.

A Polish soldier has been killed by a roadside bomb in the central Iraqi town of Diwaniya.
Three other soldiers were injured in the incident, one of them seriously, according to the Polish government.
The soldier's death brings to 22 the number of Polish troops killed in Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003.
Poland's Prime Minister-designate Donald Tusk announced this week that he will seek to remove all Polish troops from Iraq next year.

Up to 12,000 protesters have been on the streets of Georgia for a second day to demand the resignation of President Mikhail Saakashvili.
Many of the protesters had camped overnight outside the parliament building in the capital, Tbilisi.
The crowd swelled during the day, but did not match the 50,000-strong crowd seen on Friday.
The protesters want an early election, accusing the president of leading a corrupt, authoritarian government.

Iraqi PM Nouri Maliki says Baghdad is ready to pursue and arrest the Kurdish rebel leaders carrying out cross-border raids into Turkey from northern Iraq.
Mr Maliki also said his government would not rule out taking joint action with Ankara against the PKK fighters.
The pledge was made at international talks in the Turkish city of Istanbul on the issue of Iraq's security.
Iraq's six neighbours gathered with diplomats from the UN, G8 and international Arab and Islamic groups.
Attending the one-day conference in Istanbul, Mr Maliki said his country should not be used as a base for attacks against neighbours.

Empty shelves in Caracas. Food riots in West Bengal and Mexico. Warnings of hunger in Jamaica, Nepal, the Philippines and sub-Saharan Africa. Soaring prices for basic foods are beginning to lead to political instability, with governments being forced to step in to artificially control the cost of bread, maize, rice and dairy products.
Record world prices for most staple foods have led to 18% food price inflation in China, 13% in Indonesia and Pakistan, and 10% or more in Latin America, Russia and India, according to the UN Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO). Wheat has doubled in price, maize is nearly 50% higher than a year ago and rice is 20% more expensive, says the UN. Next week the FAO is expected to say that global food reserves are at their lowest in 25 years and that prices will remain high for years.
Last week the Kremlin forced Russian companies to freeze the price of milk, bread and other foods until January 31, for fear of a public backlash with a parliamentary election looming. "The price of goods has risen sharply and that has hit the poor particularly hard," said Oleg Savelyev, of the Levada Centre polling institute.

The only Christian television station in the Holy Land has closed after 11 years because of a lack of funding.
Nativity television, or al-Mahed as it was known in Arabic, broadcast a mix of church services, films and discussion programmes 24 hours a day from a small studio in Bethlehem, not far from the Church of the Nativity.
Samir Qumsieh, the Greek Orthodox owner and director of the channel, said it had lost around $800,000, half of which were his own personal debts. "I have hundreds of letters thanking me and gratitude shields thanking us from all the churches but nobody translated this into financial support," he said. The station closed yesterday.
"I reached the point where I couldn't continue any more," he said.
The channel broadcast mostly in Arabic, and Mr Qumsieh said he sometimes had Muslims and Jews phoning in to talk on discussion programmes.
Mr Qumsieh has been an often outspoken advocate for the shrinking Christian community in Bethlehem. He said Christians were leaving the city in large part because of the sharp economic slowdown brought about by the Israeli occupation and the effect of the concrete West Bank wall that runs nearby. Some Christians have also said they feel under pressure from conservative Islamist groups which are on the rise across the Palestinian territories

spinoza Neque lugare, neque in
Landover Baptist is a parody site.
It may sound like a plot from the cult Channel 4 comedy Father Ted, but it's an issue giving increasing concern to the diligent clergy of Ireland.
One of the most high-profile priests has warned that clergymen are concerned that two masses or more in a day could push them over the legal limit for drink driving. As the Vatican forbids the use of non-alcoholic wine in the communion service, priests have no choice but to consume wine from the chalice on the altar.
And with a chronic shortage of priests both in Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic, Father Brian D'Arcy says that many priests often celebrate more than one mass a day, sometimes in different parishes. "The shortage of priests has resulted in those who are currently ministering having to say multiple masses, and often drive from church to church to do so, having drunk from the chalice in each church," he said.
Father D'Arcy, who hosts a radio show on BBC Radio Ulster and BBC Radio 2, said there may be enough alcohol in a priest's bloodstream to fail a drink-driving test. One priest in Co Galway has already told his local paper, the Tuam Herald, his fears about multiple masses pushing him over the legal limit.

Tens of Thousands Return to Safer Iraqi Capital
BAGHDAD (AP) - In a dramatic turnaround, more than 3,000 Iraqi families driven out of their Baghdad neighborhoods have returned to their homes in the past three months as sectarian violence has dropped, the government said Saturday.
Saad al-Azawi, his wife and four children are among them. They fled to Syria six months ago, leaving behind what had become one of the capital's more dangerous districts - west Baghdad's largely Sunni Khadra region.
The family had been living inside a vicious and bloody turf battle between al-Qaida in Iraq and Mahdi Army militiamen. But Azawi said things began changing, becoming more peaceful, in August when radical anti-American Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr ordered his Mahdi Army fighters to stand down nationwide.

Looks like spinoza pwns this thread.
This is very interesting and horrid. We already have private armies. Now, private firefighters and rescue services.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/
commen...2204504,00.html
Even as wildfires devoured whole swaths of the region, some homes in the heart of the inferno were left intact, as if saved by a higher power. But it wasn't the hand of God; in several cases it was the handiwork of Firebreak Spray Systems. Firebreak is a special service offered to customers of insurance giant American International Group - but only if they happen to live in the wealthiest zip codes in the country. Members of the company's Private Client Group pay an average of $19,000 to have their homes sprayed with fire retardant. During the fires, the "mobile units", racing around in firetrucks, even extinguished fires for their clients.
One customer described a scene of modern-day Revelation. "Just picture it. You are in that raging wildfire. Smoke everywhere. Flames everywhere," he told the Los Angeles Times. "Here's a couple of guys showing up in what looks like a firetruck who are experts trained in fighting wildfire, and they're there specifically to protect your home."
And your home alone. "There were a few instances," one of the private firefighters told Bloomberg News, "where we were spraying and the neighbour's house went up like a candle." With public fire departments cut to the bone, gone are the days of rapid response, when everyone was entitled to equal protection. Now, increasingly intense natural disasters will be met with the new model: Rapture response.
...
The plan is the brainchild of Sovereign Deed, a startup with links to the mercenary firm Triple Canopy. Like HelpJet, Sovereign Deed works on a "country club-type membership fee", according to the company's vice-president, the retired general Richard Mills. In exchange for a one-time fee of $50,000 followed by annual dues of $15,000, members receive "comprehensive catastrophe response services" should their city be hit by a man-made disaster that can "cause severe threats to public health and/or wellbeing" (read: a terrorist attack), a disease outbreak or a natural disaster. Basic membership includes access to medicine, water and food, while those who pay for "premium tiered services" will be eligible for VIP rescue missions.
Medicine, water AND food! What a bargain!
Baghdad : ‘Ethnically cleansed neighborhoods’ lead to less violence
The Carpetbagger Report
Please tell me MSU will beat Michigan...
Michigan has 3d and 11: first down.
Then Michigan has 3d and 12: touchdown.
Just. Fuck.
Like so many private disaster companies, Sovereign Deed is selling escape from climate change and the failed state - by touting the security clearance and connections its executives amassed while working for that same state. So Mills, speaking recently in Pellston, explained: "The reality of Fema is that it has no infrastructure, and a lot of our National Guard is elsewhere." Sovereign Deed, on the other hand, claims to have "direct access and special arrangements with several national and international information centres. These proprietary arrangements allow our emergency operations centre to ... give our members that critical head start in times of crisis". In this secular version of the Rapture, God's hand is unnecessary. Not when you have retired CIA agents and ex-special forces lifting the chosen to safety - no need to pray, just pay. And who needs a celestial New Jerusalem when you can have Pellston, with its flexible local politicians and its surprisingly modern regional airport?
Sovereign Deed could soon find itself competing with Blackwater, whose chief executive, Erik Prince, wrote recently of his plans to offer "full spectrum" services, including humanitarian aid in disasters. When fires broke out in San Diego county, near the proposed site of the controversial Blackwater West base, the company seized the opportunity to make its case. Blackwater could have been the "tactical operation centre for East county fires", said the company's vice-president, Brian Bonfiglio. "Can you imagine how much of a benefit it would be if we were operational now?" To show off its capacity, Blackwater has been distributing badly needed food and blankets in Potrero, California. "This is something we've always done," Bonfiglio said. "This is what we do." Actually, what Blackwater does, as Iraqis have learned, is not protect entire communities or countries, but "protect the principal" - the principal being whoever has paid Blackwater for its guns and gear.
The same pay-to-be-saved logic governs this entire new sector of country-club disaster management. There is, of course, another principle that could guide our collective responses in a disaster-prone world: the simple conviction that every life is of equal value. For anyone out there who still believes in that wild idea, the time has urgently arrived to protect the principle.
Though I'm a Michigander, I'm generally indifferent to the UM/MSU game, having gone to that other state university in the big, bad city.

Actually, it not only sounds immoral, it sounds positively libertarian.
However, lets extend this folly to it's logical conclusion. All the guys with guns are surrounding the group of countryclubbers in a world that is in full climatic crisis. Tell me. Who gets the hot young chicks? The old guys with oodles of money that will no longer buy you anything? Or the middle-aged psychopath with the gun?
And you can extend that question to who will be cleaning the toilets? Who will be working in the fields?
Food for thought.
