Manhole Covers

Holes ae appearing apparently all over North Warwickshire as manhole covers are being stolen from off the roads.
It is supposedly the latest trend around these parts to sell metal for its scrap value because of the high prices they can get for it when selling to countries like china etc.
Just wait for the first serious accident / death and then the idiots will realise how stupid they really are.
Well, perhaps they won't because they are the same sort of people who steal copper from live railway lines etc.
Perhaps they'll end up in jail where they can try and steal the bars to sell for scrap instead.

World Food Crisis

Greed is the only answer why there is a sudden food crisis, and the whole culture of thinking about global warming. Conventional sources of fuel, coal, oil are beginning to diminish and people are no longer willing to invest so much in them, because of the whole lecturing about the damage such fossil fuels contribute to tbe global warming crisis, so now biofuels are suddenly on the increase, taking over from wheat and rice as the most preferred crop to grow because it brings in far more reward for the farmers than foodcrops.

Biofuels are the future, but to what extent the effect they have on food shortages and price rises in the world. I was reading Der Spiegel online (www.spiegel.de) where there is a brilliant and comprehensive article today about investors trading in food futures markets and driving up prices of crops at the end of the harvest time before the harvest is even ready. Then they are now making huge profits (93% on wheat prices) which in turn are attracting more investors and to hell with the consequences.

Who cares about real crops and real people who can no longer afford basic foodstuffs such as rice or wheat because people in plush offices are playing gambling games on their super-cool laptops and looking at figures around the world as if it were simply a game to bet upon and to try and gain as much profit as they can. Quote "Capitalism is lterally consuming itself". Quote "Many investors either don't care or are simply oblivious to the fact that by investing in the global casino, they could be gambling away the daily food supply of the world's poorest people." Guys. We need to pray. We need to pray for the world. Not for this crisis to disappear for it is predicted in the Bible; so much as pray for salvation, for endurance, for love to shine through to help those in need, and mostly for us to be in a position to help where we can, for only then will this crisis lessen the effects on the people of the world.
