- Somalia: Roots of war
Almost two decades on from the overthrow of Mohamed Siad Barre Somalia's internal conflict continuesSomalia's descent into anarchy began in 1991 with the overthrow of the dictator Mohamed Siad Barre. But the roots of the current power struggle, and its religious nature, are more recent. It began with the growing influence of a network of Sharia courts, which were established to dispense justice in the absence of a functioning government, and to provide social services and security.By late 2005 the influence and popularity of the Islamic courts union (ICU), which included moderate clerics as well as radicals, was sufficient to threaten the reign of powerful warlords who carved up much of the country. In the capital, Mogadishu, a warlord alliance began working with US intelligence agents to attempt to keep hold of power. In return for large cash payments they promised to hand over alleged al-Qaida suspects within the ICU.News of the US involvement only increased the ICU's popularity, and by mid-2006 they had taken over Mogadishu and quickly expanded their territory. While some saw the new Islamist administration as the best hope for Somalia in more than a decade, Ethiopia saw the irredentist tendencies of some of the ICU leaders as an existential threat.In December 2006 Ethiopia's powerful army swept through Somalia. The ICU disintegrated, but a new resistance quickly emerged. The Shabaab rebels were the most radical and effective. After Ethiopia withdrew in early 2009 Sheikh Sharif Ahmed, a moderate former ICU leader, was installed as president of Somalia in an effort to placate the Shabaab and other Islamist militant groups, though, it turned out, without success.SomaliaXan Riceguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to からほぼ20年間は、上のモハメドシアドバーレ、ソマリアの内部紛争continuesSomaliaの降下の無政府状態に転覆1991年に独裁者モハメドシアドバーレの転覆で始まった

- Michael Tomasky: Yesterday in West Virginia
In the old home state, by the way, an incumbent Democratic congressman was upset yesterday by a primary challenger who ran to his right.Allan Mollohan is a 28-year House veteran who was defeated by Mike Oliverio in the Democratic primary. Mollohan had hideous ethics issues, without which I suspect he probably would have eked this thing out.I'm not sure how much of a harbinger this is, except for one thing that stands out that Democrats should worry about. From the Charleston Gazette story linked to above in the first graf:The more conservative Oliverio ran an aggressive campaign, portraying Mollohan as corrupt and out of touch. Conservative media rallied around the 46-year-old financial adviser from Morgantown, as did anti-abortion groups angry over Mollohan's support of health care reform.This abortion angle on healthcare reform, I fear, is going to be big this fall. This is my home district and even though I haven't lived there for a long time I know it pretty well still. When I was young there was hardly any such thing as a coordinated anti-abortion movement there, but today it has deep roots. I would imagine that's true in a lot of places.We have several West Virginia readers of this blog, as you know, so I think we'd all be interested in their thoughts on whether I'm reading this right. But the Democrats had better get ready for this particular thing. It already made Bart Stupak retire rather than have to go through an election explaining that the right wing was terribly distorting what he did. And now I believe it was a key factor in taking out another.US politicsMichael Tomaskyguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- The Biting Point: Southall 30 years on
Writing a play about race riots in the 80s, I found today's economic and racial tensions are just as widespreadTwo years ago I was invited to develop a play with drama undergraduates. They were all around 20, and I was keen to write a piece that might chime with their own experiences. But it was hard: for a while I was lost, until a good mate suggested I think back to what was happening in my own life as a student, of events that shaped me, shocked me, knocked my world off kilter.A rather unworldly girl-child from Warwickshire, the first in the family to go to college, I had little knowledge of the world around me and, to be honest, little interest. I was having a good time discovering freedom for myself; national financial calamities and escalating racial tension simply didn't feature. But I can pinpoint the moment when I felt as if I was forced to get involved with that world – the announcement of the death of a New Zealand-born schoolteacher on the streets of Southall. I remember a group of us watching the evening news and being stunned into silence. I can still conjure up the TV images of the Southall riots, the face of Blair Peach, the fury of the community who felt defiled by rightwing agitators, the beating of Misty in Roots and the presence of the notorious special patrol group (SPG) – the London Met police's covert and controversial special tactical force.The next day we enrolled in the Anti-Nazi League. I'll be honest – I wasn't the most active member. I gave out a few leaflets, went on a few small marches, but that I was a member of any movement at all was a revelation to me. I had never belonged to a political organisation before; I had never walked down a street, chanting, my fists raised.Then, 30 years on, I asked my students if they had heard of Blair Pea 80年代のレース暴動の芝居を書き込んで、私はドラマの大学生と遊びを開発するに招待された前の今日の経済と人種間の緊張はwidespreadTwo年としてだけでいることが判った

- Guatemala's lonely battle against corruption | Michael Deibert
While Mexico's war on drugs cartels makes headlines, its bloody consequences for its southern neighbour are all but overlookedFourteen years after Guatemala's government signed a peace agreement with a coalition of guerrilla groups ending a 30-year civil war, the country finds itself once again in the grip of armed conflict, though one in which the battle lines are even murkier than before. While drug-related violence plaguing the border regions of Mexico has achieved a kind of grisly global renown in recent years, the even deadlier battle directly to the south has generated little comment on the international stage. Central America's most populous country, Guatemala has become the scene of a brutal power struggle involving Mexican cartels who have been pushed south by President Felipe Calderón's militarised campaign against drug traffickers there, and Guatemala's indigenous criminal groups, many of whom have their roots in a military intelligence apparatus set up with US aid during the country's internal armed conflict. After the peace accords, many Guatemalans hoped that their country was embarking on a brighter future. The preceding conflict had claimed the lives of over 200,000 people, mostly poor, indigenous campesinos caught in the struggle between a militarily-weak leftist insurgency and the ruthless scorched-earth tactics of a national army, whose only military manoeuvre appeared to be the massacre. But now, nearly 15 years later, more people die in Guatemala every year than did at the height of the civil war. While Mexico's homicide rate has been estimated at 26 per 100,000 by the Latin American academic body Flacso Guatemala's numbers a staggering 53 per 100,000. What went so wrong? How did the promise of peace become transmuted into the rule of Guatemala by 麻薬カルテルのメキシコの戦争は見出しになりますが、グアテマラ政府は30年の内戦を終わらせるゲリラグループの連合との和平協定に調印した後、その南の隣人のためにその血の結果はすべてがoverlookedFourteen年間は、国は再び自分自身を認めるメキシコの国境地域を苦しめる薬物関連の暴力は、近年の陰惨な世界的に有名なのようなものを実現していますが、武力紛争のグリップは、これで戦線もよりmurkier 1つが、前に、南に直接であっても致命的戦いはしています

- US politics: The party's not over | Editorial
The prospect of policy paralysis after the November elections is looming - and the primary results have not abated that fearIn an ordinary year, this week's midterm party primary elections in a group of American states stretching from Florida to Alaska might only be of interest to US political anoraks. Yet the politics of 2010 are hardly ordinary. With the US economic recovery again slowing, the prospect of policy paralysis in Washington after the November elections, with a weakened President Obama, is now looming larger, with consequences for issues from the fiscal stimulus to Middle East peace. These prospects have implications not just for Americans but for the world as a whole. This week's primary results have therefore been widely watched and have done little to abate the fear.At first sight this may seem an odd conclusion to draw, especially in light of Senator John McCain's victory in Arizona's Republican primary on Tuesday. Not very long ago, Mr McCain had himself looked vulnerable to a conservative challenge backed by Tea Party activists. This week, having tacked hard to the right and spent much more money to secure his position than usual, he won his party's renewed backing with plenty to spare. With Arizona's Republican governor also seeing off her own challenger, and with established Democratic candidates coming through in Florida and Vermont (the former in spite of a $20m personal war chest deployed by his businessman challenger), reports of a general grassroots political uprising against the establishment in this autumn's midterms might seem exaggerated.In other states, though, some of this week's contests confirm that 2010 is no easy year for incumbents, especially on the right.

- Labour's organising roots | Luke Bretherton
David Miliband is right to highlight the power of community organising, a power that often has religion at its foundationThrough his movement for change David Miliband has made community organising the basis for what he hopes will be a renewal of the Labour movement. This raises the question of what the relationship is between Labour and community organising. It turns out they share a common ancestry.In the American and British contexts forms of popular, local self-organisation and common action emerged within such movements as the anti-slavery and abolitionist movements, the chartists and the temperance movement. These were aligned and had a symbiotic relationship with popular religion. Whether it was Methodism, working class Catholicism or the Shtetl movement in Judaism, popular forms of religiosity were a key social force generating the practices and common values vital for such grass roots activism. We see this confluence embodied in a figure like Keir Hardie, RH Tawney and Cardinal Manning – Manning was of course central to the 1889 London dockers strike, a turning point in the history of the British labour movement, as well as being founder of the Catholic temperance society. It resurfaced on 3 May this year at the CitizensUK event when Gordon Brown connected to his Presbyterian and Labour roots and gave the speech of the campaign, if not his career.What all such movements shared is a commitment to the priority of relationships – family, friendship, and neighbourhood – and the commitment to a common set of values – taking responsibility, hard work, loyalty (what religious people call faithfulness), reciprocity and the dignity of the individual. What these movements represent, and what they feed into community organising and the unions, is the assertion of the prio デイヴィッドミリバンドは、しばしば、そのfoundationThrough変更のための彼の動きでデービッドミリバンドは、コミュニティを、彼は労働運動の更新されることを願って何のための基礎を整理した宗教を持って力を社会組織の力を強調するための権利である

- Crisis and recovery: the cultural roots of the financial collapse | Rowan Williams
The questions of the financial crisis aren't just economic • Rowan Williams will be taking part in a debate on these issues tonight. Post your questions to the panel in the thread below and watch live on this page from 6.30pmWhen we all started to become aware of the financial crisis at the end of 2008, all kinds of new conversations started up. People began to ask what are the roots of this crisis? Not just the financial causes, but what are the cultural roots of it? How did we get to a situation where we took for granted that certain kinds of behaviour were to be rewarded, never mind the failure or devastation they left in their wake? We woke up to the fact that a great deal of our economic life seemed to be based on, well, nothing very much really, except the exchange of currencies and speculations.So in the months that followed the first wave of the economic crisis many of those conversations began to happen. They happened between people who were studying ethics and even theology, as well as economics. They happened among people who were involved in business and the Financial Services Authority. They happened in the pages of various journals and newspapers; and as a result of some of those conversations, this book has come into being: Crisis and Recovery, published by Palgrave Macmillan.Among those who have contributed to the book there are some people involved in those worlds that I've just mentioned: in the Financial Services Authority, in academic economics, in the actual business of business, as well as people commenting from a broader political, cultural and moral perspective. We have working politician's here, as well as people working in the financial sector.The questions that the book leaves us with are, I think, primarily these: What kind of culture have we 金融危機の問題は単に•ローワンウィリアムズは、これらの問題は今夜の議論に参加する経済ではありません

- Philippa O'Neill obituary
My friend Philippa O'Neill, who has died aged 48, was a homeopath and a former housing manager. During her career in housing, Pip had a particular interest in developing tenant-run housing cooperatives. She then became a wise and compassionate healer, committed to running clinics for people who were vulnerable, such as those on low incomes or with addictions.Pip was born in Australia, one of three daughters of Judith and John O'Neill. The family moved to Cambridge three years later, when her father took up a post as a theology lecturer. By the time she was eight, Pip could give guided tours of all the Cambridge colleges, revelling in her lively home of theologians, academics and visiting Australians.Such an atmosphere instilled in her a love of politics, a sense of social justice and a deep thirsting for God. Aged 13, she embarked on a spiritual journey from her father's Presbyterianism, through Cambridge churches to become a Congregationalist, later following her mother into Catholicism, before finally settling as a Quaker.After graduating in history from Somerville College, Oxford, she spent time in south London at L'Arche Lambeth, a community supporting adults with learning disabilities. She proved herself an enabling and compassionate supporter of community members. A diploma in housing at the London School of Economics followed. She worked for Lambeth council in the 1990s and supported tenants taking on the management of their own estates.In 1996, she headed for Melbourne to explore her Australian roots. This was a rich and inspiring time for her, as she developed her understanding of her dual nationality and deepened her relationships with her extended family. She returned to England in 1997 and continued to work in housing, while training as a homeopath at the Sc 私の友人フィリッパオニールは、48歳で死亡した、ホメオパシー、旧住宅マネージャーだった
- Michael Tomasky: Why are student loans in the health bill?
Yesterday, when I mentioned the student-loan provisions of HCR with regard to the reconciliation process, several of you commented, what are student-loan changes doing in the health bill anyway?The fact is that many big bills end up with other things attached to them. A big bill that people think is going to pass is just an irresistible target for legislators: hey, that thing is going to pass, and the vote will really be about A, so if I can get a provision about B or C or D attached to it, it'll sail through cuz no one's going to vote against the whole thing just because of my little provision.Happens all the time -- and yes, in this case, on both sides. It just so happens that student loan reform has been a big priority of the Obama administration.Under it, private lenders will be out of the student loan business. All the lending will be issued and managed directly by the Department of Education. Proof of Obama's mad hunger to have the government control every aspect of our lives?Either that, or a sensible response to the massive and hideous student loan scandal we've had in this country in recent years. Here's what happened in a nutshell, via the New America Foundation:The roots of the 9.5 student loan case go back to the 1980s when Congress guaranteed non-profit lenders, which use tax-exempt bonds to finance their loans, a minimum rate of return of 9.5 percent on federal student loans made with these bonds. As interest rates on all other student loans fell in the 1990s, policymakers became concerned that these nonprofit student loan providers were making a killing. So in 1993, Congress rescinded that policy, but grandfathered in loans made from the old bonds, believing that the volume of 9.5 loans would decline as they were paid off and the bonds retired.Instead, be 昨日、私が和解のプロセスに関しては、あなたのコメント、いくつかの学生の国際福祉機器の貸出規定のように、どの学生ローンの変更は、保健法案でとにかく元気ですか？実際には、多くの大きな法案を他のものを添付して終了です彼らに

He went on to become librarian of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai before leaving this prestigious post to become professor of Kannada, first at Mumbai University, then at Mangalore University. His research brought him into contact with the Basel Mission, a Protestant society with roots in Switzerland and south-western Germany, whose staff, in the 19th century, had researched the Kannada language and its literature. They had played an important part in transforming it into a language for modern discourse and media.I was archivist of the Basel Mission when Havanur came to me wanting, for his first short stay in Basel, the same kind of 24/7 access he had provided for scholars when he was a research librarian. We came to an understanding that allowed him to work night and day, as he wanted.Since that first visit, we had been firm friends and colleagues. I had no background in Indian studies, and he opened up a whole new world for me, not least in my understanding of the significance of this group of missionaries in the history of Karnataka.Havanur became almost an ambassador-at-large for the Basel Mission in Karnataka, with his pointed, critical but positive judgments about the missionaries' linguistic work in academic publications and the press.In retirement he became an honorary resident member of Karnataka Theological College. Assisted by the college archivist, he produced the definitive computer catalogue of the many Basel Mission publications in his language.

- Canada – a linguistic battleground between the US and Britain | Mind your language
As a Canadian living in London, I am caught between ancient British roots and the new American order laid down by Webster in his dictionary. Where should my loyalties lie?A few years ago I moved to the United Kingdom from the Canadian prairies. This was a luxury I was afforded via two grandparents who were born in Britain, ensuring my access to the elusive ancestry visa.Many Canadians still feel a greater allegiance to our colonial British roots than to our neighbours to the south; the monarchy is still represented on our money and most Canadians are well versed in singing God Save the Queen. We even toast Her Majesty at most fancy public events.Despite these and other symbols of allegiance, however, Canadians continue to hold on to some ambivalence over our British roots through our generally inconsistent use of language. While gazing at our commemorative Princess Diana spoons and watching the Queen's Christmas Message every December, we are still uncommitted when it comes to our geopolitical allegiance to language. Just as we often straddle international conflicts by playing the peacekeeper, most Canadians sit on the fence, moving interchangeably between American and British spellings. If there's anything notable about our use of language, it's that we are pretty lackadaisical about it.Before the American Revolution, everyone in North America was formally governed by the United Kingdom, except for a region in eastern Canada that was held by France. Following America's independence, there was a movement towards differentiating its unique culture from that of Britain. This was a major inspiration for Noah Webster, the man behind the dictionary that decisively set out a new order in American spelling and style. Some of the most noticeable differences Webster introduced t ロンドンのカナダ人として、私は古代のイギリスのルーツと新しいアメリカのためにウェブスターが彼の辞書に起工の間で板挟みです
- Angela Merkel punished by voters for dithering over Greek bailout
Exit polls in North Rhine Westphalia indicate Angela Merkel risks losing her majority in the upper house of parliament Angela Merkel suffered a bruising defeat in a key regional election as voters turned on her centre-right alliance after a campaign that was eclipsed by the Greek debt crisis.The German chancellor's Christian Democrats (CDU) dropped more than 10% in the election in North Rhine Westphalia, according to exit polls. The CDU, which polled 34.5%, and its coalition partner, the Free Democratic party (FDP) – which secured 6.5% – no longer have an outright majority.The defeat is likely to cast a shadow over the rest of the Merkel government's term in office. While the campaign was dominated by regional issues such as bankrupt municipalities and education funding, it was overshadowed by the international issue of debt-ridden Greece.Merkel was widely accused of delaying a decision over the massive Greek bailout for fear that she would isolate voters in North Rhine Westphalia. In the event it was her perceived dithering that is believed to have contributed to the CDU's loss of support, along with a local party funding scandal.Crucially for Merkel, the poll setback means that her coalition will now lose its majority in the Bundesrat, or upper house of parliament, which will make it far more difficult for her government to push through legislation.The opposition Social Democrats (SPD), which had run on a par with the CDU in the polls for some weeks, also appear to have won 34.5% of the vote (a loss of 2.6%), while the Greens increased their standing by 6.3% to 12.5% – not enough for the two to form a majority.The Linke – or Left – party, a relatively new political formation with its roots in the former communist East, increased its influence by securing 6%, enabling ノルトラインヴェストファーレンの出口調査ではメルケル首相は、国会の参院での有権者は彼女の中道右派連合は、ギリシャの債務危機を隠蔽されたキャンペーンの後になってとメルケル首相は、キー地方選挙であざ敗北を喫した彼女過半数を失うリスクを示すドイツのメルケル首相のキリスト教民主同盟は、同盟（CDU）ノルトラインヴェストファーレンの選挙では、終了世論調査によると10％以上下落した
- Russia: Shared scourge, different causes | Editorial
Russia's dirty war is not over after all. And, as so often, the innocent are the first to sufferThe parallels are written in the blood of the innocent. On a day much like any other, suicide bombers descend into the underground system of a major European city in the midst of the morning rush hour. They board a crowded train, crammed with commuters. They detonate their explosives. The impact is indiscriminate and lethal, in many cases life ending, in all others life changing. For a while, chaos reigns in the city. Then come the calls for action and the pledges of revenge. Five years ago the city was London. Yesterday morning it was Moscow.What happened yesterday at two Moscow underground stations was barbaric. Violence of this kind against innocent people is intolerable wherever it occurs. Quite rightly, there is a reflexive sense of solidarity between those who have suffered from terrorist outrages. Many Londoners know what many Muscovites have just experienced. Countries such as Britain, Spain and India, all of which have endured long and difficult battles against their own terrorists, as well as lethal terror attacks on their urban transport systems, have lessons – mistakes as well as successes – to share with the Russians.Our societies face a similar scourge. But we do not face a common enemy. It is important that we do not pretend otherwise, not least because the world is riddled with indefensible actions taken by states with varying degrees of justification in the name of a common struggle against terrorism. Most terrorism has local not global roots and most solutions are local too. The logic, if that is the right word, of the bombings lies in several previous attacks over the past decade and in Moscow's often ruthless and occasionally incompetent responses to them. ロシアの汚い戦争以上のすべての後ではありません
- Another 'reform' bill, another sideshow | Megan Carpentier
The US financial reform bill is far from complete – but rather than focus on policy, politicians prefer to play the great Beltway gameWhen one lives in Washington, politics seems all-encompassing: it's that city's equivalent of New York City's baseball grudge match between the Yankees and the Mets, in which one picks a team, follows the players and roots for every win. Unfortunately for the vast majority of Americans who live outside the Beltway, that which affects their daily lives is not politics, but policy. And, once again, Washington is serving up another big heap of political cotton candy when it comes to financial regulatory reform when Americans are all but begging for something far more substantial.The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, has already asked Republicans and Democrats alike to begin debate on the financial regulatory reform bill, which is still the subject of committee negotiations and is far from complete. Having failed to force Republicans to limit the debate on a bill that isn't yet complete, he plans to do so again today and as often as possible thereafter in order to create the political spectacle of Republicans siding with Wall Street – which they are, of course, but a cloture vote doesn't show that when they can point to ongoing negotiations with Chris Dodd as a reason. It's all about the politics, again, and not the policies being debated which even Reid's own party members believe are lacking in the kind of financial regulatory reform this country really needs.So what's in the bill? Not a Fed audit, not the Volcker Rule to limit depository institutions from gambling with their depositors' money on the stock or the derivatives market, and not even any strict rule on derivatives trading transparency.

- In praise of … Wales's antipodean ascendancy | Editorial
It may be pedantic to class Julia Gillard as Welsh but it is splendid to witness one of Wales's political daughters reaching the topOdd that it should take the Australians to install a Welsh-born prime minister, as they did last week, when the British have never done so. Lloyd George, identified in some quarters (including, regrettably, this one) as a native of Wales, was in fact born in Manchester. The standard reference sources fail to trace the roots of some PMs, but it seems that while Bedford Row, London and Wotton in Buckinghamshire can claim two apiece, and two were born in Ireland, and a fine succession from the Earl of Bute to Blair and Brown first saw the light in Scotland, Wales has given us none. It has produced many near misses – some unmistakably Welsh, like Labour's deputy leader Aneurin Bevan and its twice-defeated Neil Kinnock; others less so. Roy Jenkins was born near Pontypool, while the Tory might-have-been Michael Howard is recognisably Welsh in vowel sounds if not in demeanour. Geoffrey Howe and Michael Heseltine are both also Welsh natives; meanwhile Kenneth Baker was born in Monmouthshire, which wasn't strictly Wales at the time, but is today. John Prescott, always classed as a pugnacious Yorkshire deputy, was born in Prestatyn. It may be pedantic to class Julia Gillard in Canberra as Welsh while recasting Lloyd George's Welsh wizardry as Mancunian magic instead. But after so many near misses by Wales's home-born sons, it is splendid to witness one of its political daughters reaching the top, even if she is an awfully long way from the land of her fathers.Julia GillardWalesAustraliaguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- Tea Party movement dips in popularity
Major poll suggests drop in support for anti-establishment rightwing US partyThe popularity of the Tea Party appears to be on the wane after more than a year of upsetting mainstream politicians, according to a Washington Post/ABC poll published today.The poll, the first major one to show support for the Tea Party going into reverse, reported that support for the anti-establishment, rightwing grassroots movement has dropped. The percentage of Americans holding an unfavourable view of the movement jumped by 11 points to 50%.But the poll may turn out to be premature, as the anti-incumbency mood across the US shows little sign of abating. The same poll showed that support for Congress was at an all-time low at 29%.The Tea Party movement, which began last year as a reaction to the high level of public spending and hostility towards Barack Obama, has over the last six months taken a series of political scalps, ousting centrist Republican candidates in a series of primaries. One of its main champions, Rand Paul, won in Kentucky last month.The movement has already forced the Republican party to move its policies to the right, even though its campaign strategists tell the leadership it has to shift into the centre to win back ground.Voters went to cast ballots in primaries in 11 states today ahead of the November mid-term elections, but few of the primaries involve high-profile Tea Party candidates, making it harder to judge whether it has stalled.In South Carolina Nikki Haley emerged as a frontrunner in the Republican primary for governorship after being endorsed by Sarah Palin, a Tea Party favourite. She has increased her popularity in state polls in spite of allegations about her sexual relations. In another governorship race, in Iowa, Palin endorsed the former governor Terry 主な調査では反体制コーヒー党の米国partyThe人気を右派の支持の低下を示唆した後の主流政治家を動揺させるのは1年以上を衰退しつつあることには、ワシントンポスト/ ABCの世論調査today.The世論調査を、公開されてによると最初に表示さ主要な1つは逆に行く、コーヒー党の支持を見るには反体制のサポートが報告、草の根運動を右。減少している

- Oceans: Voyage into the deep | Editorial
The sea provides 99% of the planet's living space yet we still know little about itThe unknown world begins at Southend-on-Sea – and Spurn Head, Holyhead, and Peterhead. It is a truism among oceanographers that scientists know more about the topography of Mars, or the dark side of the moon, than about the surface of most of the earth, but that doesn't make it any less true. Forget for the moment the polluting discharges from Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico and other gushers, spills and seepages, and think of the lesson from a new exhibition, The Deep, which has just opened at the Natural History Museum.The oceans cover 70% of the globe. But whereas life is smeared thinly across the continents – mostly in the space bounded by the forest canopy and a tree's roots – all of the ocean is habitable, and inhabited, from the shallows of the intertidal zones to the crushing depths of the abyssal plain. So the sea provides 99% of the planet's living space. The ocean is home to the longest mountain chain of all, the 65,000 kilometre (40,000 mile) mid-ocean ridge, and to the deepest chasms, such as the Kermadec trench, reaching more than 10,000 metres (35,000 feet) below the waves. It is the biochemical retort in which life first emerged more than 3.5 billion years ago, and for at least the first 3 billion years it was life's only home. It distributes the planet's heat, conditions its atmosphere and controls its plumbing: each year more than a metre of the ocean surface evaporates to form the clouds that deliver the rains that feed the world's rivers, lakes, aquifers and glaciers.The first great scientific probe of the oceans dates only from the late 19th century. HMS Challenger's discoveries were eye-opening, but one premise of the science that followed was wrong. Geo 海は地球の生活空間の99％を提供して、まだ我々はまだ少しの未知の世界で始まるitThe知っているサウスエンド-海 - とスパーンヘッド、ホーリーヘッドと、ピーターヘッドに
- Citigroup executives face Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission grilling
First witness is former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan. Critics say his policy of keeping interest rates low encouraged lending to borrowers who had little or no chance of repayingFormer executives of Citigroup could be in for some surprises when they appear before a panel investigating the roots of the financial crisis.Commissioners and staffers for the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission are readying pointed questions for eight former and current Citigroup executives due to testify at hearings that begin today. Some questions are based on a review of about 2m pages of documents the commission has obtained, including 1m pages from Citigroup.That means witnesses including the bank's former chief executive Chuck Prince and former chairman Robert Rubin may be confronted with their own words, as preserved in emails and memos provided to the commission.The three days of hearings will feature testimony focused on high-risk mortgage lending and the way trillions of dollars in risky mortgage debt was spread through the financial system. The hearing is designed to provide a firsthand account of decisions that inflated a mortgage bubble and triggered the financial crisis.The panel is using Citigroup as a case study because the bank was heavily involved in every stage of that process. The megabank was a major sub-prime lender through its subsidiary CitiFinancial. Other divisions of Citigroup pooled those loans and loans purchased from other mortgage companies and sold the income streams to investors.As borrowers defaulted, Citigroup took losses on mortgage-related investments it held on and off its books. Mortgage troubles at Citi, defunct investment bank Bear Stearns and elsewhere exposed cracks in the financial system. In late 2007 and throughout 2008, those fissures g 最初の証人は元連邦準備理事会のアラングリーンスパンです

- Bring back economic sanity | Jeffry Frieden
Financial regulation should help those in need and take from those who profited most from the excesses of the past decadeThe current economic crisis has caused widespread suffering, and the suffering is far from over. We welcome signs of recovery, but this will not end the need for continued sacrifice. A decade of irresponsible policies has left many countries in an unsustainable position, and the impact of attempts to remedy those mistakes will be felt for another decade to come. Progressives need to respond to the crisis and its aftermath in a way that is both economically sensible and socially defensible.We in the US are living through a classic debt crisis. The roots of the crisis go back to 2001, when massive tax cuts drove the federal government from large-scale surpluses to huge deficits. This began an extraordinary surge in American foreign borrowing, which averaged between half a trillion and a trillion dollars a year between 2001 and 2007.The borrowing binge was intensified by American monetary policy, as the Federal Reserve kept interest rates at unprecedentedly low levels. This encouraged households to join the borrowing bonanza, expanding housing and credit card debt at a dizzying pace. The five trillion dollars flooding into the country from abroad had the typical effects of an inflow of foreign funds: demand for hard goods rose, leading to an import surge and swelling the trade deficit, while demand for non-traded goods and services also rose, leading to a surge in the price of such non-tradables as healthcare, entertainment, education and housing.As is typical in classical capital flow cycles of this sort, foreign borrowing sparked an economic expansion, which became a boom, which became a bubble, which has now burst. This pattern was common to a phalanx 金融規制は、これらを必要としなければならないと人のほとんどは、過去decadeThe現在の経済危機の行き過ぎから利益を得てからかかる広範な被害が発生しており、苦しみをはるかに上からです

- Haiti: Disaster beyond magnitude
It is all too easy, seeing the appalling scenes from Port-au-Prince yesterday, to forget America's historic debt to Haiti, scene of the first successful slave revolt, which defined the destiny of Africans in the New World. The establishment of the first black independent state had tangible consequences. It denied Napoleon his foothold in the Caribbean and led him to sell New Orleans and the Louisiana territories to Jefferson. But, for as long as anyone can remember, Haiti has been treated as a basket case where corruption, gang violence and natural disaster combine to drag the country backwards. Now an earthquake may have killed up to 50,000, and rendered 3 million homeless. No one can prevent shallow earthquakes, but the consequences of this one have been made catastrophic by Haiti's condition.The French saddled the nation with debt, the Americans with cheap rice imports in the 1980s; 98% of the land has been deforested, destroying watersheds, creating soil erosion and impoverishing agriculture. Self-serving Haitian elites have just spent three months getting rid of Michèle Pierre-Louis, the first effective prime minister the country has had for years. The roots of the rural exodus and exponential growth of jerry-built shanty towns lie deep, but as the first arriving international aid teams looked round in desperation yesterday for the flickering signs of a functioning state, it was brutally clear why they were not going to find any. The policemen were too busy rescuing and burying their own families to patrol the streets. Even if the physical symbols of state, like the buildings of the presidency and parliament, had stood their ground, it is doubtful what help they could have given to their own people. The institutions they represent have never been far from collapse. あまりにも簡単で、港からひどいシーンを見ているポルトープランス昨日、ハイチ、これは新世界でのアフリカ人の運命が定義されて最初に成功した奴隷の反乱のシーンにアメリカの歴史的な債務を忘れること
