Chances are if you have worn any technical Alpinestars products in the past 10 years Yann either designed them or had something to do with it. He has been a long time friend, one time Motocross riding buddy (I didn’t own a camera back then but our friend JP made a video of the 1st time Yann hit a jump ramp and 2nd time I did 11 years ago) and is possibly the most competitive person I know. Always one to have a .....

Interesting and well made documentary. Crooks at the highest level. .....

Some food for thought for a Sunday. Excellent follow on chat from the must watch video I posted last week. .....

Perhaps there was a time when it wasn’t important to be knowledgeable, but now is not that time. I highly recommend everybody watch/listen to this, because it is the best thing I have seen for a while showing the big picture of where we are, and where we are going: Since all our money is loaned onto existence, our economy has to grow exponentially.

Yesterday the International Energy Agency (IEA), an OECD organisation, decided to raid these meager savings in order to try and keep the global growth party alive. The recognition that high oil and energy prices were threatening a weak and faltering recovery is an admission by the OECD that high oil .....

Not like it wasn’t expected or anything. Is there a plan B? hell no. I am no fan of nuclear power really but it seems all countries are decommissioning their nuclear plants right about the time we will need them more than ever. LONDON (Reuters) – OPEC followed this week’s failure to reach an output deal with a forecast world oil supplies would begin to fall short later this year, draining inventorie .....

I read this full chapter of the WEO report and pulled out some excerpts for you. They try to put a positive spin on it somewhat, but clearly acknowledge for the first time the serious nature of peak oil on the global economy. This fact alone is fairly significant, even if rather late: The persistent increase in oil prices over the past decade suggests that global oil markets have entered a period of increased scarcit .....
