Global Warming: Cold Spring 2011 In The Washington DC Metro Area

It is looking like Spring 2011 is going to be amongst one of the
coldest on record. After a warm spell last week, many people were
looking forward to a warm start.

Instead, it has been unseasonably cold in the Washington Dc Metro
area, with temperatures regularly getting close to freezing at night.

Yesterday,and today, they are calling for snow late at night, with
equally low temperatures.

It has also been raining. The cold weather and rain, make it rather
less interesting for area residents and tourists to go out and enjoy
the annual Cherry Blossom festival in downtown Washington DC.

Temperatures today will be in the high thirties, and lows will
continue to be in the forties through the weekend.

This must be hard to explain for Global Warming advocates.

End Game for Laurent Gbagbo, Ble Goude and Muammar Qaddafi Families

With a lot of uncertainty hanging over the Middle East, a new era is
dawning in the world, what many have dubbed a New World order that
will define much of the way we live and interact in the 21st century.

In the Arab World, rebels have been found wanting in their bid to oust
strongman, Muammar al Qaddafi. Under cover of an internationally
sanctioned No-Fly zone, the rebels fighting Qaddafi loyalists made
significant gains last week, only to lose ground quickly when faced
with heavy artillery.

The Qaddafi family is proving tenacious, and is now pushing west, to
the rebel stronghold of Benghazi. It seems the only way to stop him
would be to have the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court
examine allegations of terrorism, especially the 1988 bombing of a
PanAm flight over the Scottish village of Lockerbie.

A key prosecution witness to this case could be the Foreign Minister
of Libya, who is an insider and former head of Libya's secret
services. He defected yesterday, the 30th of March 2011, and flew from
Tunisia to London on a private flight. He is still being debriefed by
British Intelligence.

Further South in Africa, Forces loyal to president elect in Cote
d'Ivoire, Alassane Ouattara have been making gains as they advance to
the economic capital, Abidjan. The capital of the country,
Yamossoukro, has fallen, and just Abijan and a small area around it
remain under the control of Mr Gbagbo.

Laurent Gbagbo, his wife Simone Gbagbo and Ble Goude, leader of the
populist Jeune Patriots (Young Patriots) have been slammed with
international travel bans. They also may be exposed to indictment from
the ICC.

The time when people could cling on to power, and stifle progress of
countries is now in the past. The American president has made it clear
these despots MUST leave power.

Barack Obama will prevail in Libya and Cote d'Ivoire.
