Dr. Paul introduces HR 833..............
The Ron Paul movement swept the nation in 2007 and 2008 leaving a trail of well informed citizens in its wake. We all worked hard for the campaign, whether you stood on an over pass with a sign, handed out literature or screamed at the top of your lungs. The campaign did well. 1.2 million votes for the Good Doctor. We all received a taste of what it feels like to become true activists for a true cause.The Good Doctor needs your help again.
Dr. Ron Paul has introduced HR 833 into congress entitled: To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes....Link
One big snake.....................
Named Titanoboa cerrejonensis by its discoverers, the size of the snake's vertebrae suggest it weighed 1140 kg (2,500 pounds) and measured 13 metres (42.7 feet) nose to tail tip. A report describing the find appears in this week's Nature. Dr's Jason Head and David Polly carried out much of the quantitative work behind the discovery whilst working in the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences at Queen Mary, University of London; they identified the position of the fossil vertebrae which made a size estimate possible. Now based at the University of Indiana, Polly explains: "At its greatest width, the snake would have come up to about your hips. The size is pretty amazing. But our team went a step further and asked, how warm would the Earth have to be to support a body of this size?"...Link
Oldest Animal Fossils Discovered......
Fossil traces found in an oil field on the Arabian Peninsula are the oldest evidence yet of animals, pushing back the known origins of higher life to more than 635 million years ago. The animals' remains don't look like traditional fossils. They're more like fossil echoes: chemical traces of a compound only produced — at least in modern times — by demosponges, descendants of what some scientists consider to be the last common ancestor of all animals. "It is, definitively, the earliest evidence for animals," said geochemist Gordon Love of the University of California, Riverside, lead author of the study published Wednesday in Nature...Link

U.S. can't send protectionist trade message...
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Tuesday he did not want to send a protectionist message on world trade and would look at altering "Buy American" language in an economic stimulus bill coming out of Congress. "I think it would be a mistake ... at a time when worldwide trade is declining for us to start sending a message that somehow we're just looking after ourselves and not concerned with world trade," Obama said on the Fox television network. His comments came as the U.S. Senate was debating a nearly $900 billion economic stimulus plan that allows only U.S.-made iron, steel and manufactured goods to be used in public works projects funded by the bill....Link
Obama on Daschle: 'I screwed up'.............
Hours after learning that tax-tainted Tom Daschle withdrew his cabinet nomination, President Obama began a media blitz to control the damage to his young administration. "This was a mistake...I screwed up," he told CNN's Andersoon Cooper in one of five interviews to air Monday evening. But despite Daschle's troubles -- the former senator was found to owe $100,000 in back taxes, after being nominated to head the health and human services department -- the president said he does not regret nominating him. Daschle was the best man for the job, Obama said, but those qualifications shouldn't overshadow the recent revelation...Link
