Colorado to gain jobs in '10, forecast says
|
15.1.2010 |
Vail Colorado: News |
| Colorado should see job growth returning and home prices start rising again this year as the U.S. economic recovery gains traction, according to a forecast Wednesday from Vectra Bank Colorado.
The U.S. economy should grow 2.5 percent to 3 percent this year, adjusting for inflation, predicted economist Jeff Thredgold at Vectra Bank's 17th Annual Economic Forecast Breakfast.
While not especially robust, that recovery and a global rebound are the two precursors needed for Colorado to enjoy consistent job growth again.
"Colorado will move out of its own recession by the latter part of 2010," Thredgold said.
Still, the need to unwind the massive debts accumulated by households, businesses and government will translate into a recovery ... |

NewsTrust Yahoo Pipes Feed |
| A scientist in the middle of the ClimateGate scandal received economic stimulus funds last June.
As NewsBusters reported on November 28, Penn State University is investigating Professor Michael Mann, the creator of the discredited " Hockey Stick Graph ," for his involvement in an international attempt to exaggerate and manipulate climate data in order to advance the myth of manmade global warming.
According to the conservative think tank the National Center for Public Policy Research, Mann received $541,184 in economic stimulus funds last June to conduct climate change research.
With this in mind, NCPPR issued a press release Thursday asking for these funds to be returned:
In the face of rising unemployment and record-breaking ... |

| by Joseph E. Stiglitz It is said that a near-death experience forces one to reevaluate priorities and values. The global
economy has just escaped a near-death experience. The crisis exposed
the flaws in the prevailing economic model, but it also exposed flaws
in our society. Much has been written about the foolishness of the risks that the financial sector undertook, the devastation that its institutions have brought to the economy, and the fiscal deficits that
have resulted. read more |

IT IS SAID THAT A NEAR-DEATH experience forces one to reevaluate priorities and values. The global economy has just escaped a near-death experience. The crisis exposed the flaws in the prevailing economic model, but it also exposed flaws in our society. Much has been written about the foolishness of the risks that the financial sector undertook, the devastation that its institutions have brought to the economy, and the fiscal deficits that have resulted. Too little has been written about the underlying moral deficit that has been exposed—a deficit that is larger, and harder to ... |

| The Conservative plan for overseas aid treats Africa as a laboratory for free-market ideology
You don't win general elections in Britain by fighting poverty in poor countries. That has to be good news for David Cameron, because the Conservative programme on international development would be a sure-fire vote loser.
Whatever your take on New Labour, its credentials on development are impressive. As a nation we have become more generous in our dealings with the world's poorest people, moving from the lower leagues to the premier division of leadership on poverty reduction.
Aid has been an important part of the transition. The £9bn development assistance programme represents 0.5% of our GDP – three times the share in 1997. Britain has ... |

| EIA sees US natgas production down 3 pct in 2010
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U.S. Energy Information Administration on Tuesday slightly raised its estimate for domestic natural gas production in 2010 but still expected output this year to be down 3 percent from 2009 levels.
In its January Short-Term Energy Outlook, EIA said it expected marketed natural gas production to be down 1.8 billion cubic feet per day, or 3 percent, this year, primarily due to steep declines from initial production at newly drilled wells and the lagged effect of reduced drilling activity.
(Reuters) - The U.S. Energy Information Administration on Tuesday said it expected world oil demand to rise to 86.65 million barrels per day in 2011, up 1.47 million bpd from 2010.
