Renee Schoof, McClatchy Newspapers: "An environmental watchdog group asked the Department of Justice's inspector general on Monday to investigate whether the department had prematurely halted a criminal prosecution of BP for a 2006 oil spill in Alaska. Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility filed the complaint on behalf of Scott West, who as the special agent in charge for the Environmental Protection Agency participated in the federal and state investigation of the spill."

Maya Schenwar, Truthout: "As the Bush administration rumbles to an end, it is pushing with increasing urgency for a commitment to a long-term US presence in Iraq. Though the military aspect of this 'commitment' has garnered substantial publicity, the administration is equally invested in the economic aspect: securing US control over Iraqi oil before Bush leaves office, according to experts in the field."

Rupert Read, Green Party city councillor for the Wensum Ward, at the spot on Earlham Green Lane, where Orange are planning to put a phone mast.

SARAH HALL

11 November 2008 17:00

People living in one city ward have united to oppose plans for another mobile mast by forming a campaign group to stop it being set up near their homes.

Earlham Mast Fight has already collected 100 signatures of support in its fight against a 20-metre mast being put up on an industrial estate on Guardian Road.

The mast has been proposed by Orange and it is the third application in just one month in the Wensum ward, with applications already submitted for two masts close to the Co-op in Earlham Green Lane.

Beschäftigte und Arbeitslose im medialen und rechtlichen Halbschatten

„In Unternehmen und Staat werden die Rechte von Beschäftigten, Noch-Beschäftigten und Arbeitslosen laufend eingeschränkt und verletzt. Selbst die bestehenden Rest-Gesetze werden missachtet, vor allem aber werden sie in Grauzonen umgangen, die mit hohem juristischem Aufwand geschaffen werden. Millionen Betroffener befinden oder glauben sich in einer Erpressungssituation. Widerspruch, Widerstand, ja allein die interne oder gar öffentliche Feststellung der nackten Tatsachen unterbleiben aus Furcht vor Entlassung, Nichtzahlung von Transferleistungen oder sonstigen Strafmaßnahmen. Hilferufe aus dieser allgegenwärtigen, aber verdrängten Welt gelangen nur an den Rändern aus dem medialen und rechtlichen Halbschatten in die Öffentlichkeit…“ Artikel von Werner Rügemer in BIG Business Crime Nr.4/2008 vom 28 Oktober, 2008 http://www.linksnet.de/de/artikel/23778


Engagement am Arbeitsplatz - Viel Luft nach oben

„Nur jeder zweite Arbeitnehmer in Deutschland ist den eigenen Angaben zufolge mit seiner Arbeit zufrieden und zugleich motiviert, für seinen Arbeitgeber einen besonderen Einsatz zu leisten. Rund ein Drittel zeigt am Arbeitsplatz hingegen nur eingeschränktes Engagement. Zwischen 10 und 20 Prozent aller erwerbstätigen Bundesbürger können sogar als ausgesprochen unzufrieden, demotiviert und ihrem Arbeitgeber nur wenig verbunden gelten. Dies zeigt der aktuelle "YouGov PeopleIndex 2008" des Marktforschungs- und Beratungsinstituts psychonomics AG, der quartalsweise das Engagement, die Identifikation und die Bindung der Beschäftigten in Deutschland sowie relevante Einflussfaktoren im Unternehmen ermittelt. 10.000 Arbeitnehmer im Alter von 16 bis 62 Jahren werden im Rahmen der Studie regelmäßig befragt. (…) Dies bleibt nicht ohne Folgen: Die wirtschaftlichen Folgen eines Teufelskreises aus mangelndem Vertrauen, fehlender Wertschätzung, geringem Engagement und den üblichen wechselseitigen Schuldzuschreibungen sind enorm…“ Pressemeldung vom 16.10.2008 http://www.presseportal.de/meldung/1283165

Minnesota is becoming to 2008 politics what Florida was in 2000 or Washington State in 2004 — a real mess. The outcome will determine whether Democrats get 58 members of the U.S. Senate, giving them an effective filibuster-proof vote on many issues. When voters woke up on Wednesday morning after the election, Senator Norm Coleman led Al Franken by what seemed like a relatively comfortable 725 votes. … Late Sunday night, the difference had gone down to just 221 — a total change over 4 days of 504 votes. Amazingly, this all has occurred even though there hasn’t even yet been a recount. Just local election officials correcting claimed typos in how the numbers were reported. Counties will certify their results today, and their final results will be sent to the secretary of state by Friday. The actual recount won’t even start until November 19...

The GOP has been laid low, thanks to politicians who swapped their principles for power and lost both. As the chief electoral vehicle for conservative and free-market ideas, the Republican Party cannot regain America’s confidence, nor should it, until the guilty have been catapulted into the nearest volcano. Comrade George W. Bush has spearheaded the most aggressive federal expansion since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. As a delivery system for socialism, he has been the most effective Trojan Horse since that pine steed rolled into Troy...

Deborah Sontag, The New York Times: "Soon after Antonio Torres, a husky 19-year-old farmworker, suffered catastrophic injuries in a car accident last June, a Phoenix hospital began making plans for his repatriation to Mexico. Mr. Torres was comatose and connected to a ventilator. He was also a legal immigrant whose family lives and works in the purple alfalfa fields of this southwestern town. But he was uninsured. So the hospital disregarded the strenuous objections of his grief-stricken parents and sent Mr. Torres on a four-hour journey over the California border into Mexicali."

Ryan Singel, Wired.com: "When Barack Obama takes the oath of office on January 20, Americans won't just get a new president; they might finally learn the full extent of George W. Bush's warrantless domestic wiretapping. Now privacy advocates are hopeful that President Obama will be more forthcoming with information. But for the quickest and most honest account of Bush's illegal policies, they say don't look to the incoming president. Watch instead for the hidden army of would-be whistle-blowers who've been waiting for Inauguration Day to open the spigot on the truth."

The Mini-Depression and the Maximum-Strength Remedy

Robert Reich, TPM Cafe: "This is not the Great Depression of the 1930s, but nor is it turning out to be merely a bad recession of the kind we've experienced periodically over the last half century. Call it a Mini Depression. The employment report last Friday shows job losses accelerating, along with the number of Americans working part time who'd rather be and need to be working full time. Retail sales have fallen off a cliff. Stock prices continue to drop. General Motors is on the brink of bankruptcy. The rate of home foreclosures is mounting."
