7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Aftershocks rock region, 29may06

MORE than 400 aftershocks have hit central Indonesia since Saturday's powerful 6.2 magnitude earthquake killed, an official said yesterday.The strongest of the 450 aftershocks registered magnitude 5.2 and struck about two hours after the quake, said Handi, an official at the Meteorology and Geophysics Agency who uses only one name. Others measured less than magnitude 4, he said. The first quake struck at 5:54am on Saturday on the densely populated Java island.

DANIEL 7:23-24
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.

This next story will be the EU headed by a dictator who destroys through peace and deception. And controls the world regions (10) in the future for world control and domination.

DANIEL 8:23-25
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

West not serious about free trade: PNGTuesday May 30 09:00 AEST

Western nations are not serious about opening their economies to allow the fair trade of goods and services with developing countries, says Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister Michael Somare. Market access to developed countries was still restricted by non-tariff barriers such as prohibitive quarantine and legal requirements, he said in his opening address to the African Caribbean Pacific (ACP) and European Union (EU) Council of Ministers' Meeting being held in Port Moresby this week.

Referring to negotiations over a new Economic Partnership Agreement between the EU and ACP countries, Somare said the EU's requirement for countries to be World Trade Organisation (WTO) compatible in the new trading arrangement could be costly to some ACP states and undermine their fragile economies.Such a situation would certainly not address the fundamental objective of the ACP-EU partnership arrangement, which is to reduce and eventually eradicate poverty. While the WTO system is proposing greater liberalisation and globalisation through the lifting of trade barriers, it appears that developed countries are not serious in opening up their economies for fair trade of goods and services.

Somare said the new ACP-EU trading arrangement was meant to be developmental in nature, requiring substantial development assistance to enable ACP countries to integrate smoothly into the international trading system.So we are all surprised by the position of the European Union on this important matter and I would, therefore, urge all ACP states to take a firm, united position on this critical issue, ©AAP 2006

Heavy, flooding rains in southeast Texas B. Bernard, Senior Meteorologist, The Weather

Channel Mon May 29, 12:12 PM ET Heavy, flooding rains are likely to persist in southeast Texas near Houston and Beaumont through tonight. Rainfall already has exceeded 12 inches today in parts of Chambers County and 10 inches in parts of Liberty County. A nearly stationary upper-air disturbance and moist low-level flow from the Gulf of Mexico may contribute to another 5 to 8 inches of rainfall in portions of the region by tomorrow morning.

Elsewhere, a few severe thunderstorms are expected today along and in advance of a cold front
pushing eastward through the mid-section of the nation. The area at risk extends from eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin southward into Oklahoma. The greatest threat, however, probably will focus on the upper Mississippi Valley, Iowa, northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri.
