US Public Pensions Face $2 TRILLION Deficit
The US public pension system faces a higher-than-expected shortfall of more than $2,000bn that will increase pressure on many states’ strained finances and crimp economic growth, according to the chairman of New Jersey’s pension fund.
The estimate by Orin Kramer will fuel investors’ concerns over the deteriorating financial health of US states after the recession. “State and local governments are correctly perceived to be in serious difficulty,” Mr Kramer told the Financial Times. READ MORE ...

Y2K REVISITED: SOFTWARE BUG THAT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE 2010 PREVENTS BANK CARD USE IN GERMANY
FRANKFURT — More than 25 million German bank cards have been hit by a software bug that cropped up on New Year's Day, the country's savings bank association and private banks said on Tuesday.
The problem has hit cardholders trying to use cash machines or make payments throughout the country and abroad, stems from software unable to recognise the year 2010, and might take a week to resolve, the DSGV association said in a statement.
A global alert had gone out 10 years ago amid widespread fears of a similar problem, dubbed Y2K, which is linked this time to some computer's inability to recognize the year 2010
Clients at two of the biggest German retail banks, Postbank and Commerzbank, have also been affected but on Tuesday a Postbank EC card functioned normally for at least one transaction, AFP noted.
A Commerzbank spokeswoman said only some of the bank's cards had been affected and that some of its machines had already been adapted to accept those in question, but did not provide detailed figures.
Postbank declined to comment.
In addition, almost half of the 45 million eurocheque (EC) debit cards issued by savings and regional banks were affected by the glitch, as were 3.5 million of their roughly eight million credit cards, DSGV said.
The association added that the bug, which it termed a delayed "Year 2000 problem," should be completely eliminated "by next Monday," January 11.
It has sporadically affected ATM cash machines and stores across Germany and abroad, but around 25,700 machines have already repaired, DSGV said.

"USDA Concerned With Climate Change Models’ Effect On Food Production."   Anti-Greens are ‘Criminals’, According to Interpol, Environmental crime is a serious and growing international problemThe UN and Interpol How the UN will gain power By Barry NapierIt is interesting that the man who cast aside the US Constitution like a rag, and imposes his own laws without consent, has agreed to allow an international police authority to overrule the US government. Barack Obama signed an Executive Order giving express permission for Interpol to supersede the laws and police authorities of the USA. Some have seen this as heralding loss of sovereignty. The truth is, the USA already lost it when it voted for Obama. Before the election he promised to hand over sovereignty to the UN, and this will indeed occur if the people allow him to carry on implementing his own Executive Orders without the consent of Congress or the people! InterpolInterpol operates with the consent of 188 member countries (so far). Its aim is to combat international crime and seek cross-country police cooperation. This is based on the “limits of existing laws in different countries and in the spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights” (which has itself caused more mayhem than it is worth). Its constitution prohibits being involved in political, military, religious or racial conflict. Tell that to the fairies! In 2005, Interpol briefed members of the UN’s Security Council Counter Terrorism Committee on its work to combat terrorism and its “growing cooperation with the UN in a range of anti-crime areas”. But, what is considered to be ‘crime’? Whatever the UN decides it will be. Interpol has an office in the UN’s New York building. The links between Interpol and the UN are very strong, if not interwoven. Interpol spokesmen say that Interpol can give “teeth and real impact to Security Council Resolutions”.

Dead fish provoke alert around Gulf of Mexico
Mexican officials issued a vigilance alert Tuesday after thousands of dead fish washed up on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico.
Veracruz state governor Fidel Herrera issued the alert after fishermen reported dead fish along several kilometers (miles) of beaches off eastern Mexico.
"We have to determine if it was a natural phenomenon or if it is more generalized," Herrera told journalists, adding that Mexican Marines had taken samples from other coastal areas.
Investigators were studying the fish to determine the cause of the deaths, said Aurora Parissi, director of Veracruz state public health laboratory.
They were also studying possible links to dead fish which appeared last month on beaches in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas and the US state of Texas, both also on the Gulf of Mexico.
