Correct. "Oil prices have moved to a higher level, and they're going to stay there," says Wyss. Expect crude to remain around $50 a barrel, while gasoline could reach $5 a gallon within the next few years. There will always be blips in both directions. A hard landing for the Chinese real estate market, for example, could stall growth and cause a sudden drop in oil prices. "People would be terrified [by such an economic slowdown]," says Jim Rogers, a prominent commodities investor. "But it wouldn't last." Politics can also create short-term volatility: trouble in Saudi Arabia...

As Brown celebrates Soldier of Fortune's tenth anniversary this month, he makes no apology for the combative style--either his or the magazine's. Since its founding as a quarterly with a print...
...likely to be the final demand on the Colorado River's bounty. No reclamation work even close to CAP's size is currently planned; Congress, mindful of criticism of pork-barrel projects, has not authorized a major new water program since 1976. Yet Lamm's own state is likely to need more water by the end of the century. Congress has funded parts of an ongoing $1.2 billion reclamation project in Utah that would involve the Colorado's water. Since the river's harvest is fixed, and already overal-located, experts warn that the only way to accommodate these...
