You know according to Alex Collier if we let all the dolphins on earth die we are all f*cked. According to him and other sources Dolphins come from another planet in our solar system and originate from somewhere else. And if we let them die or kill them all we are pretty much doomed

Officials say Atlanta's largest hospital has found the bacteria that causes Legionnaire's disease and that it likely sickened four patients. Grady Memorial Hospital officials say Thursday lab tests showed legionella bacteria in water samples taken from patient rooms on two floors. Four patients who had stayed in those areas have come down with Legionnaire's disease since Jan. 1. The positive samples were taken from bathrooms, not air vents. Officials say the water system is being flushed with hyperchlorinated water, but patients still are not being allowed in the areas. About 80 beds were taken out of service. Legionnaires' disease is an infection that can cause deadly pneumonia. People get it from inhaling contaminated mist or vapor.)

Clinton Arrives in Indonesia
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/19/washi ... lo.html?hp
JAKARTA, Indonesia — Reaching out to the world’s most populous Muslim nation and the boyhood home of her boss, President Barack Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived in Indonesia on Wednesday, saying she wanted to pay tribute to its hard-won democracy. “Indonesia has experienced a great transformation in the last 10 years,” she said, hearkening to the Asian financial crisis of 1998, which triggered the ouster of the autocratic regime of President Suharto.Mrs. Clinton said that her decision to come here — a 3,600-mile detour from her tour of Japan, South Korea, and China — was also driven by a desire to recognize Southeast Asia, a region that senior Obama administration officials said had been neglected by the Bush White House.

U.S. Ambassador says IMF agreement beneficial for Turkey

U.S. Ambassador to Turkey James Jeffrey said that his country believed that a new program with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) would be beneficial for Turkey, the Anatolian Agency reported. Talks between the IMF and Turkish government for a loan agreement are yet to be finalized. The negotiations between the parties were suspended in late January when Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said the Fund made two unacceptable demands, the details of which he did not elaborate. The Turkish government has been criticized over its reluctance to seal an IMF deal, after the latest $10 billion accord expired in May, ahead of the upcoming local elections due to the spending curbs imposed by the Fund.

GREECE: ATHENS, BOMB NEAR US BANK DEFUSED
http://www.agi.it/world/news/2009021815 ... 6-art.html
Athens, 18 Feb. - A time bomb has been defused by Greek bomb-disposal experts in front of the American Citibank in Athens, reported local sources, specifying that it was a rudimentary but powerful bomb made from a gas tank tied to explosives. It was hidden in a stolen car which was parked next to the building in the northern Kifissia district. A security guard issued a warning after he saw three men enter the bank's car park with the car and leave it there. It is yet another incident recently registered in Athens, where tensions have risen since the death of a young demonstrator, the 15-year-old Alexis Grigoropoulos, who was killed on December 6 by a stray bullet fired by a policeman.
