Webmersion Reports
Newspapers see further presence decline as China builds a cyber army. Lest you fear,
cyber sophistication is now being taught in greater numbers in colleges and universities around
the world. The webmersion trends are, as many trends these days, mixed. While
we naturally fear the new, necessity drives us towards further development. In the webmersion
spotlight, these battling trends can be seen.
Newspapers Lose Record Nunbers in last quarter

While it may not mean the end for conventional newspapers, certainly the latest downturn
is indicative of the descent of print and the further rise of digital.

The recent round of attacks on Tibetan Activists has raised concerns that China may
be developing a concerted team of hackers, clones, and other digital miscreants.

GREENNEWS REPORT
The full effects of green conversion, carbon offsets, and other green-related reforms
may not be as smooth or as beneficial as seemed obvious.

The scramble for those carbon offset dollars has begun. Here, businesses are ratcheting up
for the potential new business in carbon offsetting, the scheme where a carbon emitter
pays a company to reduce carbon levels somewhere else.
Here is another example. This Australian company is talking about underground
carbon storage. It denies its interest is connected to anything other than local concerns,
but critics are doubtful.

Yvo de Boer, the executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change...
"There's a double worry. The low oil price means that a lot of renewable energy projects
are being pushed onto the backburner and at the same time there's less investment capital around,"
The reality of climate change technology and development is the economy.

CASHREPORTS
The Bailout Strategy of nations such as Britain and America are starting to yield results, just not
all the right kinds.

London Banks fail to use the money given to them by the government.
While Small Businesses get declined for credit, London Banks continue to take
government bailout cash.
China has been bailing out companies, but not to the extent of the US and England. But, the recent
dramatic profit losses of one of its major companies may trigger more bailout response.

Major Chinese Industry loses billions. When a raw material provider such as Chalco (aluminum provider)
shows such losses, the underpinnings of that economy, production, cannot be healthy.
The powers that be, the folks who make their living understanding economies, don't seem to be getting
behind the Obama method of forcing green technology on America with Stimulus Cash and new tax schemes.

Warren Buffet pans the Obama cap and trade scheme, cites overwhelming economic cost.
Technology offers great opportunities for new growth, but all new growth comes at the expense of others.
Here's one such loser.

Newspapers see loss of advertising revenues, subscriptions.....has the era of paper ended?
Finally, the government's role is debated. When Obama's auto team forced out Rick Wagoner of GM, some are asking
if this is the role government should be making, forcing CEOs (even those that might deserve it) out. It sets the precedent
for future force-outs of CEOs who might not be as obviously removable as Wagoner.
http://r.reuters.com/ceh53c
The President of the United States forces a CEO out. Wagoner's departure sends a chilling message
to the other CEOs, play nice or get lost. Is this the proper role of government?
