BRAC Report Goes to PresidentKatrinaBase-closure panel finds overestimation of savings
The final Base Re-alignment and Closing Commission report has been sent to the President. The final version notably maintains Ellsworth AFB of South Dakota as a going concern. Hopefully, the report is accepted.
The Pentagon overestimated savings from base closings by $30 billion and some of its plans for streamlining the Army, Navy and Air Force might have made the services less efficient, a federal commission that reviewed the process said yesterday.With its five months of work complete, the Base Realignment and Closure Commission voiced its concerns even as it approved roughly 86 percent of what Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld recommended as he sought to save money by getting rid of extra space in the domestic military network. That's on par with previous years, when commissions changed only about 15 percent of what the Pentagon proposed.

French, Dutch Reluctant to Commit national Suicide?FEMA Dumps Brown As Katrina Relief Chief
Call a spade a spade: Pres. Bush appointing this guy as head of FEMA was NOT a positive move. Pulling him out of the Katrina situation into a role of "overall supervision" is effectively kicking him upstairs to get him out of the way.
This is a necessary move, and frankly, the Chief hopes that he is gracefully moved out altogether after some period of time, to complete the process of error correction.
His replacement, Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen has HIS ducks in a row, and will be a major improvement.
Perspective on KatrinaEurope faces up to double rejection of treaty
Interesting report from across the pond: The Frogs and the Dutch seem poised to vote NON! on the proposed Eurocratic Constitution. Oooops. There goes the push for a fully integrated United States of Europe, or whatever it would have been called.
Pesky democracy! Those sheeple just don't vote the way their leaders say they should!
