Statements about the doctrine or the future made by current LDS Prophet, and the church view on those I was looking at this mormon.org page that mentions that "The current prophet and President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Thomas S. Monson."


Does the LDS church assert that doctrinal statements made by the
current Prophet are either "inspired", "infallible", or both?
Has the Prophet made any statements about (near)future events that
Mormons expect to happen?


(I am separating "inspired" and "infallible" because I am not sure how they are interpreted in this context.)

Inspired, definitely, but not infallible. Prophets are merely mortal men.

Yes, actually. Just a couple months ago, President Monson announced that four new temples would be built in the near future, and named the cities they will be built in.
