Where's My Jet Pack?!
Swiss Man Becomes Crosses English Channel With Jet Pack
Swiss pilot Yves Rossy became the first aviator to cross the Channel between England and France using a single jet-powered wing attached to his back. Rossy soared through clear skies during his 37-kilometer (23-mile) flight, then opened a blue and yellow parachute to land safely in Dover. The portion of his flight over water took less than 10 minutes. Rossy postponed an attempt yesterday due to bad weather, saying that he would rather wait than fail. “I would be disappointed to be in the water now and tomorrow it's perfectly blue sky,'' he said yesterday.
Rossy took off from France in a plane and jumped from an altitude of more than 3,000 meters (10,000 feet). His flight started over the French port of Calais. His craft was designed to reach a speed of 190 kilometers an hour.
Spain’s Problem: Too Much Solar Power
Spain Will Cut Solar Plant Subsidies to Check Industry's Growth
Spain's government will cut subsidies to solar-power projects in the next two years as it tries to rein in the industry's growth, Deputy Prime Minister Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega said. The industry has installed more than four times the government's target of 371 megawatts of solar capacity, making the reduction necessary to prevent an overburden on public spending, Fernandez said.

Americans Oppose Bailouts, Say Obama Would Best Handle Financial Emergency
Americans oppose government rescues of ailing financial companies by a decisive margin, and blame Wall Street and President George W. Bush for the credit crisis.
Americans oppose government rescues of ailing financial companies by a decisive margin, and blame Wall Street and President George W. Bush for the credit crisis. By a margin of 55 percent to 31 percent, Americans say it's not the government's responsibility to bail out private companies with taxpayer dollars, even if their collapse could damage the economy, according to the latest Bloomberg/Los Angeles Times poll. Poll respondents say Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama would do a better job handling the financial crisis than Republican John McCain, by a margin of 45 percent to 33 percent. Almost half of voters say the Democrat has better ideas to strengthen the economy than his Republican opponent.
Six weeks before the presidential election, almost 80 percent of Americans say the U.S. is going in the wrong direction, the biggest percentage since the poll began asking that question in 1991.

Bernanke: Recession Certain Without Bailout
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke bluntly warned Congress on Tuesday it risks a recession, with higher unemployment and increased home foreclosures, if it fails to act on the Bush administration's plan to bail out the financial industry. Bernanke told the Senate Banking Committee that failure to act could leave ordinary businesses unable to borrow the money they need to expand and hire.

REGULATE, BABY, REGULATE!
Credit Swaps Must Be Regulated `Immediately,' SEC's Cox Says
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox said Congress should grant authority to regulate the credit-default swaps market amid concern the bets are fueling the global financial crisis.
Lawmakers should ``provide in statute the authority to regulate these products to enhance investor protection and ensure the operation of fair and orderly markets,'' Cox told the Senate Banking Committee today at a hearing in Washington. "Neither the SEC nor any regulator has authority over the CDS market, even to require minimal disclosure,'' and that should be addressed "immediately,'' Cox said in prepared testimony at a hearing to consider the government's $700 billion financial rescue plan.

When Socialism Came to America
When fascism comes to America it will come wearing a flag and carrying a cross.
When socialism comes to America it comes as a rich bald white man demanding money for his rich bald white friends.

Common People
.
Her name was Rothschild
She was a PUMA
She was a member
Of McCain’s Duma
That’s where I
Caught her lie
She said I want to the vote of common people
She said I’ll pretend to like what common people do
She said I want to use common people
She said I want to use common people - people like you
I took her to a CVS
I thought it best
I said now pretend that you have to choose
Between medicine and food
She said she had never laughed so hard
And she just used her credit card
I took her the airport
She was being a good sport
I said what if you didn’t have a private plane
And she said ‘would you please explain’
I said pretend you flight had lost a door
And you had to sleep here on the floor
She said that idea was a riot
And she just would fire the pilot
I took her to a public school
She said where is the swimming pool
I said these books are ineffectual
She called me an intellectual
I said there’s no money for art
She said ‘you think you’re so smart’
I showed her the broken bleachers
And she just blamed the teachers
I took to an emergency room
She knew what one of those was, I assume
I said these people can’t afford health care
She just gave me a blank stare
I said what if you had no insurance for that rash
She said well then I would just pay in cash
I said for once pretend you’re not rich
She ‘but dammit I am, bitch’
I said you don’t know any common people
I said you’ll never see what common people see
I said you’ll never earn the vote of common people
You’ll never earn the vote of common people - people like me
