A Mining company from Canada
Tuesday, March 1st, 2011We have been looking into a mining company from Canada. They are a Vancouver based mineral exploration company, that is focused on developing the Taysan Copper-Gold Porphyry Project, in Batangas Province, Philippines. The Taysan Project is an advanced copper-gold porphyry deposit. Snowden (1995) reported a resource of 391Mt @ 0.30% Cu and 0.21gpt Au (0.2%Cu cut off). Recent Whittle modeling at $2.50/lb copper and $1000/oz gold shows an economic deposit containing 734 Mt at 0.24% Cu and 0.11 g/t Au. A total of 195 drillholes are recorded for about 44,531m, of which 144 holes totaling 36,562m were drilled at or nearby the Taysan Deposit. Feasibility studies have been carried out by BHP Engineering and Pincock Allen & Holt. This is some of the biggest mining discoveries as the project has a 25-year time line. This has an excellent exploration prospective. The Project includes high grade copper concentrate with gold, silver, magnetite and other by-products.
Why do we give money away
Sunday, January 30th, 2011We have a debt that is through the roof. We cannot pay back the people we owe. We rack up so much interest on our debt it is climbing faster than we can keep track of it. Then you find out we under right 25% of the working budget for the United Nations and we send 1.3 billion dollars a year to Egypt. They receive the second highest handout from the country that is almost 15 trillion dollars in debt. Here is the funny part when you look at 1.5 billion in relation to 15 trillion. That means even if we shut off the United Nations and Egypt we still would be in debt because of the interest we pay on this debt. How did this come to be such a mess? When did we decide we were going to hand away money for considerations whatever that used to be and is today. Many people have accused this space on the internet of wanting to be an isolationist state but when it comes to things like this it sure does not seem like such a bad idea after all. We are sure there is important reasons we pay this money out or President Obama would not have immediately hung it over President Hosni Mubarak head in their very first conversation when the protest began.
Boeing to slow down the C-17
Thursday, January 20th, 2011Talk about a timing that just looks bad if it is related or not. Boeing will cut about 1,100 jobs over the next two years as it slows production of its C-17 military transport aircraft. This was done the day after they agreed on a 19 billion dollar deal with China. The real reason and not just the lame stream media hype is that Boeing will deliver 13 C-17s in 2011, this is one less than the prior year. The new annual production rate for the C-17 is ten. The country buys less planes there are less workers needed to create them. 10. The long-haul military cargo C-17, which is in its 18th year of service, can carry large equipment, supplies and troops directly to small airfields, the company says. The fleet continues to operate at an accelerated rate due to the recent troop surge in Afghanistan. The US Air Force is the biggest customer, taking 206 of the 226 C-17s delivered worldwide. Boeing it was working to land additional international orders for the C-17, in India and Kuwait. The Defense Department’s proposed fiscal 2011 budget funds the shutdown of the C-17 program. It is a legend and it will be missed as this staple of the military flies into the sunset.
14 Trillion National Debt Congratulations
Wednesday, January 5th, 2011Congrads America you national debt is now $14,011,526,727,895.85 did you ever think you would see 14 trillion in our lifetime. Like they say you have to have goals. We are growing the debt at a level our country has never seen before. We continue to spend more than we make. Congress continues to spend more than they can tax us. This is business as usual and it looks like it does not matter if you are democrat or conservative it just does not matter to them. They are even talking about raising the debt ceiling higher, so no one is taking the national debt issue as a crisis. The idea we can just make our children’s children and grandchildren’s children pay is a supported policy and not a strain on anyone we have sent to congress. We try our best as readers know we told you on June 16 that debt went over 13 trillion. That is right the new America raises the debt a trillion dollars every six months. We told you then 13 trillion is an astronomical number when you think this country on January 8, 1835 was the last day this country had a national debt of 0. So expanding on those thoughts it was only 11.4 trillion in June 2009. This means it is growing at a rate of 3.6 trillion every 18 months. We always like to remind you that it was 9.3 trillion in 2008 when President Bush left office. So we can finally point to something President Obama has done better than anyone under his watch the last two years the debt has rose 4.7 trillion which is the greatest growth of any U.S. resident in history.

LA Stimulus Slowest in nation
Monday, December 27th, 2010These stories of how the stimulus has failed are truly showing the ineptness of the federal and local government. It is amazing that you can have local government a pile of cash and they cannot spend it or spend it poorly. There are not to many companies you can infuse cash into and they will fail. A report out yesterday says that the city of Los Angeles has spent only a quarter of its federal stimulus money though the bulk of the funding was awarded nearly two years ago. This could be because the state is a mess that holding on to any money is a big help. The city has netted more than $630 million in grants but had completed only eight of its 108 projects so far. When pushed the city admitted it was not their fault they blamed staff cuts and initial confusion about the program’s rules have made it tough to move projects quickly. We love this because the money was only supposed to be given to shovel ready projects. Were the projects shovel ready or not? The report said that Los Angeles had spent 13.3 percent of its money. When you compare this to New York who has spent 25 percent of its funding and Chicago had spent 47 percent. The other great thing is they know none of the projects risk losing funding despite the delays.

Stimulus is working
Tuesday, November 30th, 2010We know the stimulus is finally working and we have proof. The democrats can rejoice as Delta Air Lines is hiring 1,000 new flight attendants. The problem is that the economy is so in the tank that more than 100,000 people have applied. The thing this story which we write tongue and check that this means the stimulus was a success in case you did not pick that up. We do hope they understand that people are looking for real jobs which this President refuses to create. So when out of work her there is an opening at a real company, with a decent job, the application receiving servers cannot take it. There is something sexy to getting all that free travel and seeing the world; Europe, South America, and Asia. The reason U.S. airlines have finally returned to profitability, in part by cutting flights. Some of those flights are returning now but more importantly Delta is making an aggressive push into new, more-lucrative international routes. And that’s really where most of these 1,000 new flight attendant jobs come in. We wish luck to the 1% of the applicants that are actually picked to fly the skies on these international flights. To bad there are not more shovel ready airlines.

Stimulus cost more than expected
Thursday, November 25th, 2010It is really not a surprise that the Congressional Budget Office numbers wound up a little north of congress and the president on the stimulus. The good news is the spending programs for shovel ready projects are coming to an end. The effects of the President Obama stimulus spending this past summer had a positive effect they claim as it supposedly raised the GDP, lowered unemployment, and increased the number of people with jobs. We were more impressed with the truth in the truth in the price tag. We can almost believe the first statements due to the next one. The CBO says the original price tag of $787 Billion is actually going to be higher for the 10 year period: $814 Billion spent into the economy 2009-2019. Since we have still nation wide unemployment ranging around 10% the idea was to keep it around 8% if it passed. The bottom line is we are another 814 billion in the hole over the next ten years which we will need to borrow every year just to stay ahead. This humble scriber said that we should have been giving American families a $2500 Visa card to spend on any items they wanted to grow the economy through purchases than shovel ready projects.

1800 losing their jobs good do not replace
Monday, November 15th, 2010Finally some good new about people getting laid off. It is mean spritied but wors is out that as many as 1,800 Democratic congressional staffers will soon lose their jobs, with layoffs hitting everyone from entry-level schedulers to six-figure committee lawyers. These layoff numbers are based on the average number of staffers per House office, as well as the Democratic committee staffing level, which will most likely be slashed in half now that Democrats will be the minority party. Most offices have to be empty by December to clear the way for the massive class of newcomers to be sworn into office in January. So it begs the question if the new congress is serious about change let us start here and agree to only hire back half of the people let go. Force the congress to run leaner just like American business have had to do since President Obama started trying to create jobs. The democrats do not get it as they sent around counselors to some Democratic offices to not only offer advice on résumés and job hunting but also help with the emotional aspect of the losses. This is a great place to start and as a show of appreciation for what Americans expected to happen we can see if it meet the new boos same as the old boss or if change in fiscal habits are going to begin.
