in north america the chain of transport is completely unprotected and open no one has ever thought of the idea of transporting and storing genetically modified grain separately no it is too late. it's very difficult to segregate the grain crumb regular grain and it kid that it altered brain because you have contamination from the hip from the elevation from the trucks that are hauling it so it would be impossible to keep it separate so there is always be a small percent each four percent each that would mix together and so it would not be g.m.o. free. thus the borders are open for the export of genetically contaminated grain and also seed into the whole world. if you introduce most there is no such thing as coexistence and after several years it all becomes. i have also heard in europe a company saying that all of the farmer has to do is leave a buffer strip fifty meters one hundred meters there is no safe distance it doesn't matter if it's fifty kilometers it will spread. so if you introduce it all becomes after several years and to give you an example how bad it is in canada we no l

in all of north america there are hundreds of farmers under the same threat as percy schmeiser only a few of them have had the courage to come foolish to talk about. david runyan from indiana is one of the few that is standing up to months on but even he took half a year before going public with his story on santa as investigators arrived on my farm it was price of a thirty at night pm they. did not identify themselves i really did not know who they were until about three days later. i was informed from the local feed mill for i have my seed cleaned every year after twenty years and they inform me that that's who they were that they were investigators for monsanto and investigating me for patent infringement. all they will i want to know the investigators was what kind of class ladies i grow kind of wheat do i grow a kind of corn do i grow and the herbicides i use and also whom do i sell my products to they wanted name and phone numbers. and at that point i refused to cooperate and i ended the conversation. so anyone they investigate they will definitely find will have someplace a pos

in credible magical thinking that you know that there are huge undiscovered explored areas of north america that we're going to get huge amounts of oil out of it's complete nonsense. by the way larry kudlow got on t.v. last week and said we have a hundred years worth of shell shale gas and excuse me three hundred years of shale gas and president obama said we have a hundred years of shell gas and both of those statements are completely untrue we have probably about four to six years worth of shale gas energy at the rate that we use it and maybe twelve years if you include all of the natural gas of any kind that we drill in north america you know we have these crazy ideas that we're going to run an electric car fleet well here's an interesting thing let's say by some miracle we ramped up an electric car fleet of one hundred ten million electric cars in the usa and that's really optimistic we run over two hundred million cars ok so what do you think is going to be the political shot if only ten million people get to drive and all the rest of them are paying through the nose for gasoline or ca

you can't discount what is happening in north america. again, looking at the natural gas that has been discovered and developed here, looking at the fact that we may have something on the order of 27 billion barrels of oil and resources in the artic, there are tremendous resources at home. we see the same thing in brazil and australia and obviously in the middle east and there is more development potential there. it is a widespread base overall. i would be remissed if i forgot to mention the scale of the heavy oil resources that exist in canada. >> we talked a little about gas to liquids. some of the other technologies, one, what has happened to hydrogen. what are your thoughts on the prospect for shale oil and oil shale. >> again, i will think about it more from a company perspective. the mix we are looking at right now, the core business is oil and gas and it is extending it into biofuels because it fits well with our skills and we see the ability to step into that as being one of the near term options with the biggest impacts. into the

should send their data to data processing centers which could be located in various consulates north america south america africa asia and europe these data processing centers will produce recommendations for world leaders based on the data they receive and there are also countries that are small and poor they don't have their own spacecraft satellites and so long at the same time these are the countries that are often eat like clouds and earthquakes say indonesia and in fact other nations can also benefit from those reports. computer centers will process all the data distributed to all the countries in the form of risk warnings saying for example that an earthquake hazard will be high in several places around the globe in the next two weeks so mankind will be ready for an earthquake he wrote a book with another warning may concern some distant galaxy because there's a possibility that the stars concentrated in it will produce an impact on the earth within an asteroid is going to approach the earth in four years' time it will pass into a kilometers from the earth well that would be a really

we are active in six key gas plays in north america. about 4.8 million net acres with resource potential. now, beyond the economic and environmental benefits of natural gas, we're seeing other benefits as well. specifically in the petrochemicals industry. low costs have been associated with natural gas production and is create -- creating a competitive advantage to petrochemical makers. the american chemistry council says a 25% increase in methane production would create around 17,000 new high-paying jobs in the chemical industry and about 400,000 jobs outside of it. it would do all of this while creating over $130 billion in economic output at an annual increase of $4.4 billion in federal, state, and local tax revenues. the policymakers are looking for new ways to spur job growth and lower the deficit. it is hard to imagine why a responsible energy policy with more natural gas, exploration, isn't sailing through congress. i realize part of the hesitation to embrace natural gas has to do with what i believe are at best incomplete and at

but here's the equator, 30 degrees north and 60 degrees north and north america is here and here. let's just talk about the bottom part of this. this is the median of the projected change in precipitation where change is coated by color. red is less. what did you give me there david? 0? well, let's rearrange and i want to talk a little longer everybody is giving me attention here. i'll promise to hasten up a little bit. red is dryer and blue is wetter. and what you can see here is that along the sub tropics the latitudes between 20 degrees north and south and 30 degrees or so there tends to be a trying so the way the atmosphere works if you look at it sideways from along the equator the air is rising along the equator and sinking polar to that in the sub tropics and in our area that's calledd the north pacific high. that's why we don't get much rain. we're under the influence of the north pacific high. what's happening in these climate simulations is those subtropical highs, more or less, are strengthening, on the other hand if you live in seattle you might be more encouraged beca

and the british government and british people naturally thought british subjects in british north america should share the cost of the war with their fellow citizens in britain. in fact, the government had raised property taxes so high in britain that farmers rioted in protest and demanded that americans pay their fair share of the war. so in 1764, the british government extented to the colonies a stamp tax that everyone in britain had been paying for more than o 70 years. it amounted next to nothing for the average citizen. a penny or two for a stamp attached to legal documents, publications, and the packages with nonessential products such as paying cards. the hardest tax were on members of three power special interest groups, they had them back then too. these three groups were the merchants, publishers, and lawyers. the merchants had to put a stamp on every purchase order, every bill of sale. publishers had to put a stamp on every newspaper, magazine, and lawyers had to put a stamp on every legal document, deeds, wills and such. two clever politically ambitious bostonnians, james otis
