January Was America's Warmest on Record
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer
1 hour, 33 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Recording the warmest January on record allowed Americans to save on their heating, but like all good things, last month's mildness seems to have been too good to last.
The country's average temperature for the month was 39.5 degrees Fahrenheit, 8.5 degrees above average for January, the National Climatic Data Center said Tuesday. The old record for January warmth was 37.3 degrees set in 1953.
On the other hand, while much of the United States was basking in warm weather, parts of Europe and Asia were being battered by bitter cold. Climate details for the rest of the world for January are expected to be available next week.
During the month the jet stream, a strong high-altitude wind that guides weather fronts from west to east, stayed unusually far to the north, keeping the coldest air in Canada and Alaska, the agency said.
Keeping that cold air to the north allowed mild Pacific air to moderate temperatures across the contiguous states, leading to the warm conditions.
However, the jet stream is now sliding into a more typical winter pattern, according to the Climate Prediction Center. The February outlook calls for below-normal temperatures in the mid-Atlantic, the Southeast and intermountain West, and above-normal temperatures in the Southwest, the northern Plains and Alaska.
Both centers are part of the government's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The records go back to 1895 when detailed climate records began being collected.
During January, none of the 48 contiguous states had below-average temperatures — and 15 states in the northern Plains, Great Lakes and Midwest had record high temperatures for the month.
More than 74 percent of the country was classified as "much above normal" when compared to the 1961-1990 climate normal. The Climate Data Center said that only twice since 1895 has more than 74 percent of the nation had a much above-normal temperature — March 1910 and November 1999.
The record high temperatures helped reduce residential energy needs for the nation as a whole, NCDC reported. NOAA's Residential Energy Demand Temperature Index, which related energy use to climate, was at its lowest January value on record. NOAA scientists estimated the nation's residential energy demand was 20 percent less than would have occurred under average climate conditions.
Among the locations recording the warmest January on record were Bismarck, N.D.; Wichita, Kan.; Blacksburg, Va.; and Rochester, Minn. For the Twin Cities in Minnesota, it was only the second January since 1891 in which the mercury did not dip below zero.
By state, it was the warmest January on record for Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wisconsin. It was the second warmest January in New York, Kentucky and Wyoming.
On the other hand, north of the jet stream, temperatures across Alaska were much-below average. Fairbanks reached a minimum temperature of -51 F Jan. 27, with a high of only -40 F for that day.
NASA scientists recently reported that 2005 had edged out 1998 as the warmest year on record worldwide. NOAA researchers, however, said their analysis placed the two years in a statistical dead heat.
wow, we agree
re: "...the tally is now officially closed..."
what!?..now THATS funny

Bush Spending Plan Sparks Protest
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER, AP Economics Writer
47 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - President Bush, constrained by wars, hurricanes and exploding budget deficits, has sent Congress a 2007 spending plan that is garnering howls of pain from farmers, teachers, doctors and a wide array of other groups with special interests.
Democrats, as expected, pronounced the Republican president's budget plan dead on arrival. But many Republicans were equally sharp in their reservations about the $2.77 trillion spending blueprint the administration unveiled on Monday.
Sen. Arlen Specter (news, bio, voting record), R-Pa., called Bush's proposed cuts in education and health "scandalous" while Sen. Olympia Snowe (news, bio, voting record), R-Maine, said she was "disappointed and even surprised" at the extent of the administration's proposed cuts in Medicaid and Medicare.
Given the level of congressional frustration, administration witnesses, led by Treasury Secretary John Snow, were expected to face a tough sales job before various congressional committees on Tuesday.
Bush's spending blueprint for the 2007 budget year that begins Oct. 1 would provide large increases for the military and homeland security but would trim spending in the one-sixth of the budget that covers the rest of discretionary spending. Nine Cabinet agencies would see outright reductions with the biggest percentage cuts occurring in the departments of Transportation, Justice and Agriculture.
And in mandatory programs — so-called because the government must provide benefits to all who qualify — the president is seeking over the next five years savings of $36 billion in Medicare, $5 billion in farm subsidy programs, $4.9 billion in Medicaid support for poor children's health care and $16.7 billion in additional payments from companies to shore up the government's besieged pension benefit agency.
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley noted that Congress has just completed a yearlong battle to achieve far smaller five-year savings in Medicaid, the joint federal-state health program for the poor, and Medicare as part of a $39 billion five-year trim in benefit programs.
"It wasn't an easy legislative accomplishment," said Grassley, R-Iowa. "Any more reductions of a significant scope could be difficult this year."
Bush's budget would meet his twin goals of making permanent his first-term tax cuts, which are set to expire by 2010, and cutting the deficit in half by 2009, the year he leaves office.
The administration's new budget projects that this year's deficit will soar to an all-time high of $423 billion, surpassing the old mark in dollar terms of $412 billion set in 2004, as the costs of rebuilding from last year's devastating hurricanes and the continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan push spending higher.
Democrats, hoping to wrest control of Congress from the Republicans in this year's election, charged that Bush was forced into an austere spending plan because of the estimated $1.4 trillion over the next decade that it will cost to extend his first-term tax cuts, which Democrats claim primarily benefit the very wealthy.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., said Bush's budget was sending a clear message "that the most important thing to this administration are tax cuts being made permanent for the wealthiest of Americans."
In addition to strict limits on most discretionary, non-security spending in the budget, Bush sought drastic cuts or total elimination on 141 programs that would produce savings of nearly $15 billion in 2007.
The targeted programs included 42 in the area of education ranging from drug-free schools to federal support for the arts, technology and parent-resource centers.
Those proposed cuts were coming at a time when the administration is seeking more spending to train 70,000 high school math and science teachers as part of Bush's new American Competitiveness Initiative designed to relieve anxiety about the country's ability to compete with emerging economic powers such as China and India.
Even previously favored agencies such as the National Institutes of Health were not immune from the budget knife with overall funding essentially frozen and many individual programs seeing budget cuts. That brought objections from groups ranging from the American Heart Association to the American Diabetes Association.
Robert A. Rizza, president for medicine and science of the American Diabetes Association, said Bush's proposed cuts in diabetes research and prevention "would weaken the federal resources needed to fight this national epidemic."
Bush's budget submission is just the opening round in what opponents are promising will be a spirited fight in Congress over spending priorities.
"The president's budget slashes resources for exactly the priorities we should be supporting — groundbreaking medical research, health care for our seniors, and education for our kids," said Sen. Tom Harkin (news, bio, voting record), D-Iowa.

Number of bankrupt British families hits record
Sat Feb 4, 1:56 PM ET
LONDON (AFP) - The number of British households declaring bankruptcy because of an unmanageable burden of debt hit a record high last year, according to official figures
The total of 67,580 bankruptcies was 45 percent up on 2004 and the highest since the statistic began to be recorded 45 years ago.
Analysts warned the figure could hit 100,000 in the current year, a new rise of almost 48 percent.
Steve Treharne, head of personal insolvency at consultants KPMG, said Saturday: "The bankruptcy bubble is getting bigger, but seems unlikely to burst for some time yet."
The number of households who saw their homes repossessed because they could not meet their mortgage repayments rose by 22 percent in the second half of 2005 to 5,630.
The total for the year was 10,260, 70 percent up on 2004.
Those who fell behind on their mortgage payments increased 20 percent between the first and the second half of 2005.
British households' private debt soared to 1.130 trillion pounds (1.650 trillion euros, 2.011 trillion dollars) following the Christmas season. On credit cards alone it stands at two-thirds of the total in the whole European Union.
i agree, RU, PLEASE make this a "pay" board

whats OT?, it a discussion of BKMP and their share structure as reported by different sites
RU, "be careful" of what?...
are you threatening me?
btw address me by my alias or not at all
GOINGUP11, i just gave several examples of their "errors", including
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=9567619
regarding knobias and the accuracy of the share info they publish
they state 10B AS, with the "source" of 01/09/06
yet wyoming state inc docs indicate unlimited AS
since they are wrong about the AS, isnt it quite possible they are also wrong about the OS?
is SW still involved with "network marketing resources inc"
in which he held 33% of misecurity [old MSCU, which became MSCP which became WYPB which became WYPH], and does "network marketing resources inc" have a stake in BKMP?
