Piles of Dirty Secrets Behind
a Model ‘Clean Coal’ Project
Piles of Dirty Secrets Behind
A Mississippi project, a centerpiece of President Obama’s
climate plan, has been plagued by problems that managers tried
to conceal, and by cost overruns and questions of who will pay.
DE KALB, Miss. — The fortress of steel and concrete towering above the pine forest here is a first-of-its-kind power plant that was supposed to prove that “clean coal” was not an oxymoron — that it was possible to produce electricity from coal in a way that emits far less pollution, and to turn a profit while doing so.
The plant was not only a central piece of the Obama administration’s climate plan, it was also supposed to be a model for future power plants to help slow the dangerous effects of global warming. The project was hailed as a way to bring thousands of jobs to Mississippi, the nation’s poorest state, and to extend a lifeline to the dying coal industry.
The sense of hope is fading fast, however. The Kemper coal plant is more than two years behind schedule and more than $4 billion over its initial budget, $2.4 billion, and it is still not operational.
UK: An Israeli Puppet Within The EU
The Jewish State: “has lost a significant asset in the European Union…, Britain leaving would not serve Israeli interests, especially on the Palestinian issue.” But why was Britain an Israeli asset? How was Britain reduced to act as an Israeli colony? Simple. British foreign affairs are dominated by the Jewish Lobby.

Hillary Clinton: Lies, Misdemeanors, Felonies, and Treason
It is hard to imagine how one person could do so much wrong and never once be charged with a crime. Even worse she was elected to the U.S. Senate, was nominated to be Secretary of State and confirmed to be Secretary of State by the U.S. Senate. Now she is about to be “anointed” the President of the United States of America by the Democratic National Committee and Obama in spite of the fact that she is the subject of two FBI criminal investigations.

Technically Speaking: Breakout Or Market Meltup?
Back in April, as the market surged off of the February lows, I discussed that the “Bear Market Was Over…For Now.”To wit:
“Over the last couple of weeks, in both the daily blog and weekly newsletter, I have been laying out the technical case for a breakout above the downtrend. Such a breakout would demand a subsequent increase in equity risk in portfolios.The breakout above the downtrend resistance suggests a moderate increase in equity exposure is warranted.The breakout also suggests that markets will now try to advance back to old highs from last year.”
As noted, the breakout back in April has indeed allowed the market to advance back to, and break above, the previous highs from last year as shown in the chart below.
