WATCH OUT FOR ECONOMIC WAR

JERUSALEM DIVIDED

ZECHARIAH 12:1-5 King James Bible
1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.

JOEL 3:2
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

ZECHARIAH 14:1-9 King James Bible
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

Jordan's King: All roads lead to Jerusalem - Israel faces all out war in 18 months if it does not cede to Jerusalem to Palestinian state MAY 1,09
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/

Israel faces all-out war within 18 months if it does not come to terms with the Arab world and allow the establishment of a new Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem, according to Jordan’s King Abdullah II. The Hashemite monarch also declared on America's Meet the Press television program that threats from Iran and Al Qaeda will fade away once Jerusalem is divided.His position basically echoed the Palestinian Authority (PA) stand that its demands are a condition for peace and are not a matter for negotiation, despite diplomatic and media language about Israel and the PA each making concessions.The king responded to virtually every question concerning the Middle East by pointing to Jerusalem. In Arab and Muslim minds, the most emotional aspect is the Palestinian cause and that of Jerusalem. And from there leads all the other problems,he argued.When program host David Gregory asked if it’s not a fantasy to think that the problem of Al Qaeda will disappear so easily, the Jordanian monarch answered, What -- what is Al Qaeda’s platform is -- is the plight of the Palestinians in Jerusalem under occupation.Gregory challenged him that the terrorist organization may not believe what it says, but King Abdullah II was unmoved. You can’t really take them that seriously when the core issue, the major grievance in the Arab and Muslim world is solved,he explained.

He followed the same track concerning Iran and any crisis you want to talk about…. All roads lead back to Jerusalem.Any crisis you want to talk about…. All roads lead back to Jerusalem.The king, who visited U.S. President Barack Obama during his visit to the United States, was equally emphatic and simplistic concerning the Iranian nuclear threat, which worries the Arab world as well as Israel.Asked by Gregory what is the best way for the U.S. to persuade Iran to retreat from its nuclear program, King Abdullah II responded, Solving the Israeli-Palestinian problem. Gregory asked, That’s it? and the king explained, That allows us to then solve the Israeli-Arab-Muslim problem.He continued, Let me go back to saying I think that the challenge we have here in America is connecting the dots. If you have an issue of the threat that Iran poses to Israel, which is what Netanyahu was saying, the best way of solving that problem is solving the core issue, which is the Palestinian problem and that of Jerusalem.There’s more of an incentive for the Iranians to continue down that path when there’s an argument that they want to use in front of their people that Palestinians are under occupation.The Jordanian monarch held out the chance for Israel to make peace with 57 countries that do not recognize Israel today. Look, Israel, if you solve the Palestinian problem, if you allow us to solve the problems of Jerusalem, we all want to have peace with you.He warned that if Israel does not deal with the Arab demands over Jerusalem within the next 18 months, there will be another conflict between Israel and another protagonist. He charged that outside interference, meaning the U.S., is a requirement to force a peace agreement.America is providing a new image of what and how things should be done. And I think that the world has a belief in the president, a lot of faith in what he has to say. Obviously the pressure on the president is to deliver,he added.So Israel has to decide, does it want to make a relationship with 57 nations or does it want to stay Fortress Israel?

Majority of Israelis would like to join EU, see NATO in West Bank
http://www.jpost.com/ MAY 1,09

Almost two-thirds of Israeli Jews support sending NATO troops to the West Bank in a peacekeeping capacity, according to a poll conducted by Jerusalem-based KEEVOON Research. Israeli Jews supported the presence of NATO peacekeepers in Palestinian areas by 62 percent to 34%, the study found. But that support was not shared among Israeli Arabs, who opposed the idea by 44% to 24% - though a third said they did not know or refused to answer the question. We are seeing a change in the readiness for third-party intervention in the conflict,according to Dr. Lars Hansel, head of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung office in Jerusalem, which commissioned the study. Three or four years back, there was no readiness for international involvement, but I think this changed because of the EU monitoring mission in Rafah, which was seen positively, and the German marines deployed on the Lebanese coast, who are seen [by Israelis] as a welcome development. We are clearly sensing a shift in discourse in Israel about this,Hansel said. Indeed, a majority of respondents (54%) supported outright Israeli membership in NATO (33% did not). Support rose to 60% when only Jewish responses were counted.This high support was almost identical among Jerusalem and Tel Aviv residents - 65% and 64%, respectively - suggesting that this view cut across social, religious and political divisions. A similar majority was maintained among the voters of all major parties, including Labor (70%), Israel Beiteinu (67%), Kadima (63%) and the Likud (59%).The study also found that more than two-thirds of Israelis (69%) would like to join the European Union, with just 18% opposing the idea. Support was higher among Jews (75%, with 15% opposing) than among Arabs (40% vs 30% opposing). To test the strength of this support, the survey presented a hypothetical situation in which Israelis would be able to live or work anywhere in Europe, the shekel would have to be replaced eventually with the euro, and the Law of Return might be amended.Even then, support for joining the EU narrowly defeated opposition by 44% to 43%.According to Hansel, there is a general attraction to the EU, which is interesting because it is based not only on economic issues, but also on values. The study showed that Israelis liked the EU in part because it promotes democracy and pluralism. For Israelis, the EU stands for certain values and a certain kind of prosperity.

Nearly half of Israelis welcomed EU aid to the Palestinians.

After being told that the European Union is the largest donor to the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza and is committed to improving their humanitarian and economic situation,47% of Israelis said this caused their support for the European organization to increase, while 37% said it diminished their support. Similarly, 54% said the EU's support for a two-state solution encouraged them to support the EU, while 34% said it hurt their support. Israelis were less forgiving on the question of a potential EU dialogue with Hamas, however, as 59% said it would reduce their support for the EU. And though they generally held a high opinion of the European organization (63% favorable), Israelis were evenly split (36% to 34%) on whether it had advanced or impeded the peace process in recent years. Unlike with NATO, opinion on the European Union seemed to depend heavily on political and religious belief and age. Large majorities of Kadima, Labor and Meretz voters and most Israelis over 51 said they liked the European umbrella organization, while much of the opposition came from large segments of the young Israeli population, the Orthodox, and voters for Arab parties.The study asked Israelis to rate their opinions of several well-known foreign leaders. The results showed that Israelis were as susceptible to the charisma of the new American president as people from any European country: Barack Obama was the most popular of the world leaders, with a favorability rating of 74% and just 11% saying they had an unfavorable view of him.The high figures indicate that Obama's popularity is widespread even among Israel's political Right.After Obama, Middle East negotiator and former British prime minister Tony Blair is the next-most popular foreign leader, with 68% favorable to 14% unfavorable.French President Nicolas Sarkozy came third with 64%. That marks a doubling of support for the French presidency compared to Sarkozy's predecessor Jacques Chirac. In 2007, Chirac had 29% approval and 63% disapproval among Israelis. EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana came in last among foreign leaders mentioned in the poll, with 26% approval and 28% disapproval.The study put a particular focus on Israelis' views of Germany, finding that two-thirds had a favorable opinion of the country. Fully 62% of Israelis believe Chancellor Angela Merkel, Germany's first female chancellor, improves the country's image abroad.

The survey included a battery of other questions.

Asked about their main concern vis-a-vis their government, Israelis said they were overwhelmingly more concerned about the economy than foreign policy by a margin of 61%to 12%. In the wake of February's election (the study was conducted from April 1 to 5), the poll found a significant swing toward optimism among Israelis compared with the last poll from 2007. Two years ago, fully 77% of respondents said the country was going in the wrong direction. By 2009, that figure had dropped to 50%. However, Israelis' views of Turkey took a sharp turn for the worse, in the wake of the bitter diplomatic dispute between the two countries over Operation Cast Lead in January. Approval for Turkey dropped from 65% in 2007 to just 34% in the current study. The survey also questioned Hebrew-speaking respondents about the countries from which their grandparents had come, concluding that 40% of Israeli Jews had European origins and were likely eligible for European citizenship. The 2007 poll found a similar figure of 36%.

A weekend storm and flood threat MAY 2,09

Sunday AccuWeather-A stalled front will focus clusters of thunderstorms that will bring periods of heavy downpours from the southern Plains, across the Tennessee Valley, into the southern Mid-Atlantic this weekend. Late yesterday, parts of Middle Tennessee and northern Alabama experienced widespread flash flooding, with as much as 3 to 5 inches of rain falling. Through this weekend, the threat for heavy downpours, including rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches, will include central and eastern Oklahoma, northern and northeastern Texas, much of Arkansas, southern Missouri, northern Mississippi, northern Alabama, northern Georgia, much of Tennessee, much of Kentucky, much of West Virginia, and much of Virginia. An area of heavier rain / repeated downpours will likely bring rainfall amounts over 5 to 8 inches to parts of central and eastern Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee. Flash flooding will remain a widespread threat through the weekend, with additional river flooding developing from the southern Plains, to the Tennessee Valley. Isolated severe thunderstorms, capable of large hail and locally damaging winds, will also be possible in any of these areas. Frequent and dangerous lightning will also accompany the thunderstorms. The greatest risk for severe thunderstorms will be over northern and northeastern Texas, southern Arkansas, and northern Louisiana. Here, more widespread large hail, damaging winds, and isolated tornadoes will be possible.

Halifax wildfire controlled, most evacuees going home
Up to 1,200 people forced to leave their homes overnight Thursday
Last Updated: Friday, May 1, 2009 | 4:13 PM CBC News

The foundation is all that's left of one home off Purcells Cove Road. (CBC)
Most of the 1,200 people forced to flee their Halifax homes returned on Friday — some having to face the damage and destruction caused by a wildfire that tore through their community.Fire officials credited the daylong rainfall for helping get the fire under control.An evacuation order remained for only three streets, meaning about 40 homes of the 427 that had been evacuated remained off limits. But more people were expected to return later in the evening.Eight homes were destroyed in the fire and another 10 damaged. No major human injuries were reported, but officials said two cats and a dog are known to have perished.The CBC's Brian Dubreuil said he spoke with one family who returned to find their home destroyed.They told me they could see the ruins still smouldering and there was areas of the forest, the grass around their home that still had flames around it,Dubreuil said.Resident Michael Smith, whose own house escaped the flames, told CBC News that he was amazed that more homes weren't damaged.He said he had mixed feelings about that because three of his neighbours' homes were destroyed.They're all burned to a crisp. They're all gone. There's nothing there. Why our house was spared, I have no explanation,he said, although he speculated it may have been because there were no trees close to his home.Police announced late Friday that one of the damaged homes had been set alight by an arsonist, probably at the height of the fire as evacuations were underway. No other details were released.

It's kind of scary
Early Friday morning, police were going door to door on Purcells Cove Road, near the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron, ordering more families to get out of the area as the fire closed in.Harriette King was told she had 10 minutes to leave.We got packed up last night when we knew there was a slight possibility we would have to go, said King.I live on the ocean side of Purcells Cove Road, so it's kind of scary.The view of the fire from a helicopter at 10 a.m. Friday. (CBC) Neighbours homes gone

Sonja McVeigh was anxious to see the state of her home. McVeigh, her husband and their 10-month-old baby fled the flames Thursday afternoon.McVeigh said her husband spoke with a police official, who told him their house was the only one untouched on Aaron's Way off Purcells Cove Road.It's unbelievable, McVeigh said.The fire chief even said that sometimes this happens, that the fire literally jumped the road, went around our house and apparently it's unscathed. But we are thinking of our neighbours and it's surreal.The fire lights up the Halifax skyline on Thursday. (CBC)
Don Fox, with Halifax Regional Police, said officers were patrolling the area as a security measure.The fire started Thursday afternoon in the Spryfield area and shifted toward Purcells Cove Road. Initially, about 300 homes were evacuated.The fire came up quickly on Brett Ryan's home on Fortress Drive, near Purcells Cove.Within five minutes it had gone from being just thick dark smoke to actually flames 60 feet (18 metres) in the air coming up over the houses across the street from us,Ryan said.

The family got out quickly, but not before grabbing some photographs, son Quinn's baseball glove, the dog, and two pet rats.We literally got out with our lives. Like if I'd been three minutes later, I wouldn't have got up that road,Ryan said.As fire officials declared an evacuation zone several kilometres wide, police threw up roadblocks, leaving some angry family members on the outside.They didn't even know they were supposed to get out,one man yelled out to police at Williams Lake and Purcells Cove roads. His home was 200 metres inside the evacuation zone. The officer told him he couldn't go in to be with his children.This is an emergency situation, the officer responded.Fire officials aren't saying what caused the fire, but they said it spread quickly due to wind gusts and dry fallen brush caused by Hurricane Juan in 2003.

Swine flu deaths ebb; Mexico hopes worst is over By ALEXANDRA OLSON, Associated Press Writers MAY 2,09

MEXICO CITY – Mexico reported no new deaths from swine flu overnight — more reason to be optimistic that the worst is over at the epicenter of the outbreak. But the virus keeps spreading around the world, with new cases confirmed in Europe and Asia, and governments banning flights and preparing quarantines.The World Health Organization said it has sent 2.4 million treatments of anti-flu drug Tamiflu to 72 developing countries, taking the drugs from a stockpile donated by Roche Holding AG.At this point it's important that all countries have access to antivirals, said Dr. Mike Ryan, the agency's global alert and response director.China worked aggressively to track down people who may have been near a sick Mexican tourist, sealing 305 people inside a Hong Kong hotel where he stayed and hospitalizing 15 fellow passengers. The man developed a fever after arriving in the Chinese territory and was isolated in stable condition Saturday.South Korea reported Asia's second confirmed case — a woman just back from Mexico — and other governments also prepared to quarantine passengers, eager to show how they have learned from the deadly SARS epidemic in 2003, when Hong Kong was criticized for imposing quarantines too slowly.U.S. President Barack Obama also urged caution on Saturday in his radio and Internet address.This is a new strain of the flu virus, and because we haven't developed an immunity to it, it has more potential to cause us harm, Obama said. Unlike the various strains of animal flu that have emerged in the past, it's a flu that is spreading from human to human. This creates the potential for a pandemic, which is why we are acting quickly and aggressively.Mexico said it had no confirmed deaths from swine flu overnight, even as its confirmed caseload grew to 443. The U.S. count rose to 161 and there were 705 confirmed swine flu cases worldwide, although the real number is believed to be much higher. The virus also has been detected in Canada, New Zealand, Israel and eight European nations.

Mexico has taken extraordinary measures to combat the epidemic, ordering all nonessential government and private businesses to shut down for five days, at a tremendous cost to its economy. In the wide valley where traffic and crowds can be stifling even on a Saturday, Mexico City streets were strangely quiet, its usually crowded markets shuttered and even parks locked down.I'm going crazy in my house with this confinement,retiree Rocio Lara said in Mexico City. There is nowhere to go, nowhere to spend your time.Mexico City's mayor Marcelo Ebrard said they had expected exponential growth in the number of persons complaining of swine flu symptoms, and that the outbreak seems to be slowing instead.It should soon become clear whether the epidemic is really stabilizing in Mexico, but many questions remain about how the disease kills, said the leader of an international team of flu-fighters now operating in the capital.That is the big question: Is it stabilizing or not? And it is too early to say, but I think we are getting systems in place where we are going to be able to get a handle on this soon, said Dr. Steve Waterman of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Waterman also warned against taking false comfort from the fact that only one person has died outside Mexico, saying more deaths are likely as the epidemic evolves.The U.S. government said schools with confirmed cases should close for at least 14 days because children can be contagious for seven to 10 days from when they get sick. More than 430 U.S. schools had closed, affecting about 245,000 children in 18 states.With the disease on its doorstep, mainland China suspended all direct flights from Mexico, and sealed off the Metropark Hotel, where the 25-year-old Mexican stayed before he became Asia's first confirmed case late Friday. Health workers in white bodysuits patrolled the lobby, and mask-wearing police enforced a seven-day quarantine. One guest, Olivier Dolige of Paris, said they were taking Tamiflu as a precaution — and trying to make the best of it.Speaking with The Associated Press using his computer's video-conferencing program, Dolige said he will turn 43 on Tuesday in quarantine. I think about having my birthday with water and bad cake,he wrote.No champagne.Scientists trying to determine the mortality rate said this virus does not appear to match the ferocity of past killers. Most people think it is unlikely this is going to be as virulent as the 1918 epidemic. From what we know so far, it doesn't seem like it is as virulent,Waterman said.

The virus has been circulating for over a month in a city of 20 million of high population density. It could have been much worse,agreed CDC epidemiologist Marc-Alain Widdowson. The two CDC doctors spoke during a tour of Mexico's Intelligence Unit for Health Emergencies, where teams of doctors and scientists monitor the outbreak in real time and plasma screens enable frequent video conference calls with leaders from the Atlanta-based CDC, the World Health Organization and other institutions. Health Secretary Jose Angel Cordova cited other indications that the disease is not very contagious: Mexican investigators who visited 280 relatives of victims found only 4 had contracted the disease, and that the number of people hospitalized with suspected cases is declining. But he stressed that it's too early for the government to declare the epidemic is subsiding. Getting fast and effective care is important, said Hugo Lopez-Gatell Ramirez, deputy director general of epidemiology at the center. Among the 16 confirmed swine flu deaths in Mexico, the average time victims waited before going to a doctor was seven days. For those who were sickened but recovered, the average wait was three days. Lopez-Gatell said that even before the swine flu outbreak, Mexican authorities had been monitoring a higher-than-usual number of flu cases and an unusual phenomenon in which otherwise healthy young adults were falling ill with pneumonia in greater numbers. There had been 15 flu outbreaks in this year's flu season, as opposed to the 5 or 6 that Mexico normally sees.He said that put Mexico on guard and led to a fast reaction when unexplained illnesses began in March. Despite some international criticism of the Mexican response, Lopez-Gatell said no mistakes were made. We would have done everything the same if we had it to do over again,he said. Associated Press writers David B. Caruso and Malcolm Ritter in New York, Lauran Neergaard in Washington and Paul Haven and Juan Carlos Llorca in Mexico City contributed to this report.

Canada sees first person-to-person case of H1N1 flu Thu Apr 30, 6:28 pm ET

OTTAWA (Reuters) – The province of Nova Scotia has recorded the first case of the new H1N1 flu strain spreading from one person to another within Canada, a medical official said on Thursday.A spokesman for the Atlantic province's department of health promotion said the victim had contracted a mild case of swine flu from a student who had returned from Mexico on an organized school trip.We have recorded the first person-to-person transmission of (H1N1) in Canada. All the cases in Nova Scotia have had mild symptoms,said Lucas Wide, a spokesman for Nova Scotia's Health Promotion and Protection department.The province has reported eight cases so far, four of them pupils who had been to Mexico on the school trip.Separately on Thursday, federal officials reported 15 new cases of the flu in Canada, including the first confirmed case in the province of Quebec, bringing the national total to 34. All are considered mild.(Reporting by David Ljunggren; editing by Rob Wilson)

Company warned officials of flu 18 days before alert was issued
By LES BLUMENTHAL McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON -- A Washington state biosurveillance firm raised the first warning about a possible outbreak of swine flu in Mexico more than two weeks before the World Health Organization offered its initial alert about a public health emergency of international concern.Both federal and international health officials had access to the warning from Veratect Corp. Later e-mails calling attention to the company's subsequent report that the disease was possibly spreading in Mexico were sent to 10 officials of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Robert Hart, the company's chief executive.Hart said he wasn't sure why health officials didn't act sooner. They have a lot of other responsibilities,Hart said on Thursday.But every day makes a difference.CDC officials in Atlanta said they were aware of Veratect's claims and hadn't been working with the company.We have nothing to add about their claims, said CDC spokesman Llelwyn Grant, adding that the CDC and other public health agencies had plans in place to deal with a flu pandemic and responded rapidly once they became aware of the Mexican outbreak.Veratect, based in Kirkland, Wash., uses a technique known as data mining to automatically search tens of thousands of Web sites daily for early signs of looming medical problems or civil unrest anywhere in the world. Anything of interest is turned over to a team of 35 analysts to determine its significance and to post on the company's Web site. The company markets access to its Web site to government agencies, businesses and others and has tried unsuccessfully to sell its service to the CDC, the World Health Organization and the Department of Homeland Security.

Rep. Norm Dicks, D-Wash., who talked with the CDC, the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies as late as January about Veratect, said the federal government had made a mistake in not purchasing the company's program, especially in light of the flu outbreak.I am very upset about this,Dicks said. Not to have it is totally ridiculous. This is a perfect example of why they needed this and now we are paying a price.Earlier this year, Hart said, Veratect gave free access to its Web site to the CDC and the WHO on a trial basis.On April 6, 18 days before the WHO issued its alert, Veratect reported on its Web site a strange outbreak of respiratory disease in La Gloria, Mexico, noting that local residents thought the outbreak was linked to contamination from pig breeding farms nearby.Hart said the information was available to the CDC and many state and local health authorities. The company's server showed an epidemiologist at the Pan American Health Organization, which is part of the World Health Organization, looked at the message about the La Gloria outbreak twice, on April 10 and 11, Hart said.Ten days after the warning was first issued, on April 16, Veratect reported the disease was possibly spreading in Mexico with an unspecified number of atypical pneumonia cases detected at a hospital in Oaxaca. Because of the heightened concern, an automated e-mail was sent to 10 people at the CDC to notify them the report was available.With the outbreak apparently spreading, Hart said the company's chief scientist, James Wilson, called people he knew at the CDC's Emergency Operations Center on April 20 to alert them to what was happening in Mexico. At that point, the CDC was focused on possible swine flu events in Texas and California, and a physician at the emergency operations center indicated the CDC was not aware of the spreading outbreak in Mexico, Hart said.We thought this deserved immediate attention and they started looking at it,Hart said.

Four days later, the World Health Organization made its announcement.

Veratect's warnings came as President Barack Obama prepared for his trip to Mexico, arriving in Mexico City on April 16. The White House said Thursday that an Energy Department staffer who was part of the advance team for Obama's visit is suspected of having contracted swine flu in Mexico and transmitting it to his family in Maryland. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said the man, who wasn't identified, never got within 6 feet of the president.Hart said his company's system operated as it was supposed to.We don't make predictions, he said.We give the earliest wisp of smoke before the fire.Hart said he wasn't critical of the CDC or other health organizations, adding that what was needed was an effective global health monitoring system that Veratect should be a part of.Hindsight is great and it's hard to say whether (the delay) altered anything, he said.The only way to stop anything like this is to break the cycle.Others, however, cautioned that the use of data mining to track a possible disease outbreak was untested and said a number of questions about its effectiveness remained unanswered.This approach is not yet vetted, said Dr. Marguerite Neill, an infectious disease specialist at Brown University and a spokeswoman for the Infectious Disease Society of America.It is an interesting idea, but we haven't used it before.Neill said the problem with using information picked up through data mining was determining whether it was just an indication of a routine disease outbreak or something much more serious.It needs to be put in a clinical or epidemiological context,she said.I'm not sure Veratect can do that.

Experts hope flu stays mild as Canadian cases rise to 51

People line up wearing surgical masks, to prevent contracting the swine flu, as they wait to see a doctor at a mobile health clinic on Friday in Mexico City, Mexico.Photograph by: Joe Raedle, Getty ImagesAs the number of cases of human swine flu in Canada climbed to 51, Canada’s chief public health officer expressed optimism that the outbreak might turn out to be relatively mild.And a new poll suggests Canadians, for the most part, are staying calm.The Ipsos Reid poll, conducted exclusively for Canwest News Service and Global National, says fewer than half of those surveyed, 47 per cent, said they are somewhat or very much concerned that they or someone in their family might contract swine flu over the coming weeks or months.

Eight in ten — 81 per cent — have confidence federal Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq is taking the right steps to deal with swine flu's spread, and most supported the actions of their local hospitals and health officials.I think what this poll says is that no one's panicked out there,said John Wright, senior vice president at Ipsos Reid Public Affairs. I don't want to downplay this, but I think the reality is that a lot of Canadians are looking at this in a very pragmatic, sensible fashion.The poll suggests Canadians have given a vote of confidence to public officials, he said.

There's nobody who receives poor marks.

Canadian public health officials confirmed 17 new cases Friday: one in New Brunswick, the province's first; six in Nova Scotia; four in Ontario; two in Alberta and four in B.C. The new cases brought Canada's total to 51.Like the others before it, the new cases are considered mild and the patients are expected to recover.Despite the new cases, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. David Butler-Jones said there are several encouraging signs that suggest the outbreak might not be a catastrophic pandemic on the scale of the 1918 Spanish flu.We don't know exactly where it's going to go, but what gives me short-term optimism is that we're at the end of what would be normally flu season, so the chances are that this will die down over the summer, said Butler-Jones.That would buy time to develop a vaccine and do more planning, so that whatever we face in the fall, whether it's mild or severe, we're in a better position to deal with it.Meanwhile, the World Health Organization said Friday researchers had cleared the first step toward a swine-flu vaccine.A senior WHO official said they are in negotiations with a few dozen manufacturers worldwide to arrange production of a vaccine, although she cautioned it could take four to six months for the first doses to be produced.Unless really there is very soon a signal that (the spread of the outbreak) might not continue, it seems mostly likely that the manufacturers will proceed,said Dr. Marie-Paule Kieny, WHO director of the Initiative for Vaccine Research.Butler-Jones said negotiations were also continuing between the Canadian government and GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals, the drug manufacturer that has agreed to supply Canada with a vaccine. We're in a good position, once things are in place, to move forward,said Butler-Jones.Kieny said researchers have identified the virus in their laboratories, the first stage toward vaccine production.

Researchers at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other research centres worldwide are currently tweaking the virus so samples can be turned into a vaccine, a process that should conclude in mid- to late May.Manufacturers would then further adapt the virus to their production methods, grow the virus in eggs so it can be harvested in large quantities, then design a formulation to be administered to human patients.The vaccine would also have to undergo human clinical trials and receive approval from state regulatory authorities worldwide.Although the number of confirmed cases continued to increase around the world, WHO gave no indication Friday it would raise its pandemic alert level.The WHO alert level is at five on a scale of six, with six being considered a full-scale pandemic.WHO has noted human-to-human transmission so far appeared to be confined to North America. To move to level six, WHO would have to observe human-to-human transmission in at least two global regions.

We are very aware of the situation, but qualitatively the situation has not changed, said WHO spokesman Gregory Hartl.Canadian officials said a national citizen readiness campaign educating Canadians on basic precautions against the flu will kick off Saturday with advertisements in newspapers across the country. Information will also be disseminated through Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.I think Canadians agree that we need to take every precaution possible,Aglukkaq said.Meghan Cumby, a spokeswoman for the New Brunswick Department of Health, said a woman in her 20s who had recently travelled to southeastern Mexico had contracted the new flu strain. The woman did not require hospitalization, Cumby said.Four more cases of swine flu have been reported in Ontario, bringing the total in that province to 12. Two lived in Toronto, the other two in Durham, and all were considered mild cases.In Alberta, health officials said a young woman who had been travelling in Mexico, and a middle-aged woman who had been travelling in Tennessee, had contracted the flu.The B.C. government said it had confirmed four more cases, bringing the province's total to 15. B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell said the cases are mild and the patients are recovering.Vancouver's Killarney secondary school sent a note to parents Friday notifying them that a student tested positive for the flu. The school will remain open, as public health officials have determined the risk to others is very low.All the new Nova Scotian cases are mild and are connected to an outbreak at King's-Edgehill School in Windsor, a government official said.Globally, 14 countries have now reported cases of swine flu, with China, France and Denmark confirming cases Friday. The new cases brought the global total to 591.Hong Kong officials identified a traveller from Mexico as the first confirmed case in Asia.Mexico has been hardest hit by the outbreak, with 176 deaths believed to be linked to the strain.However, Mexican officials expressed some optimism Friday the outbreak there appeared to be stabilizing. Mexican authorities said they were encouraged by the fact the rate of new cases emerging was falling.

Mexico was all but shut down Friday, after Mexican President Felipe Calderon asked residents to stay home during the Cinco de Mayo holiday from May 1 to May 5.He has also urged Mexican businesses to close.In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Protection on Friday raised the country's number of confirmed cases to 141. There has been one confirmed death in the U.S., a toddler from Mexico City who was found dead in Texas.Health officials continue to remind the public the seasonal flu is also responsible for making thousands of people sick and for killing an average of 4,000 Canadians every year. Normally, fewer than 0.1 per cent of people with influenza die, if they have no underlying medical conditions.The Ipsos Reid poll found 15 per cent of those surveyed said they were very much concerned with catching swine flu, while 33 per cent said they are somewhat concerned. Only in Atlantic Canada is a majority (55 per cent) concerned about contracting swine flu.For the survey, a randomly selected sample of 1,001 adults were interviewed by phone from April 29 to April 30. With a sample this size, results are considered accurate to within 3.1 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.With files from Reuters.Canwest News Service.

U.S. Planners: Swine Flu Worst Case is 2 Million Dead MAY 1,09
http://www.newsmax.com/

If the Mexico swine flu becomes a global pandemic, the routines and comforts of daily life would vanish in the blink of an eye. Small towns and big cities alike would go into a protective crouch.The worst case scenario, according to U.S. government planners: Two million dead. Hospitals overwhelmed. Schools closed. Swaths of empty seats at baseball stadiums and houses of worship. An economic recovery snuffed out.

We're nowhere close to that. But government leaders at all levels, and major employers, have spent nearly four years planning for the worst in a series of exercises. Their reports, as well as interviews with policymakers, paint a grim picture of what could happen if the swine flu gets severely out of control. A full-scale pandemic — like the 1918 Spanish flu — would sicken 90 million Americans, or about 30 percent of the population. It could claim the lives of about 2 percent of those infected, about 2 million people, according to government experts. To put that in perspective, the regular flu causes about 30,000 deaths each year. This may or may not be the killer flu,said Kim Elliott, deputy director of the Trust for America's Health, and independent public health group.But it certainly does seem to have that potential, because it's a novel virus.A pandemic moves with explosive speed and comes in successive waves. That's why planners start with the worst case. If a pandemic strikes, the government estimates that nearly 10 million patients would have to be admitted to the hospital, and nearly 1.5 million would need intensive care. About 750,000 would need the help of mechanical ventilators to keep breathing. No one would be immune from the consequences, even those who don't get sick, according to worst-case exercises run by local and national agencies. Schools would be closed to try to block the spread of illness, for example, but school buses might be used to take flu victims to alternative clinics rather than overcrowded hospitals. A 2006 report on the Washington region found both Maryland and Virginia would run out of hospital beds within two weeks of a moderate outbreak. People who got sick would be isolated, and their relatives could be quarantined. But even if families weren't required to stay home, many would do so to take care of sick relatives, or because they were afraid of getting sick themselves. Hotels, restaurants and airlines would face loss of business as business travel and meetings would be replaced by teleconferences.

In the cities, commuters who do go to work might drive, bike or walk instead of using mass transit. On the subway, people would be asked to wear protective masks. Movie buffs would avoid theaters and rent DVDs instead. In 1918, authorities even called on churches to cancel services, to the chagrin of some pastors. As entire societies turn inwardly, the global economy would take a direct hit. Trust for America's Health estimated in 2007 that a severe pandemic would shrink U.S. output by about 5.5 percent.It could be a real blow to any type of recovery, said Elliott.The whole idea of a just-in-time economy means we depend on each other globally.But wait a minute. Catch your breath. Even if the new swine flu from Mexico turns out to be especially aggressive, the worst consequences could be averted.The nation has made strides in stockpiling antiviral medicines, speeding the production of vaccines and laying down basic public health guidelines. The government got serious about worst-case planning during the 2005 bird flu scare, as the lessons of Hurricane Katrina loomed large.

We have a playbook that was developed and is being followed, said Michael Leavitt, who as secretary of Health and Human Services oversaw pandemic planning for President George W. Bush. It's a substantially better picture than what we faced three years ago.There are gaps. Some states have not stockpiled their full allocation of antiviral medicines, critical in treating and preventing diseases during the early stages of a pandemic, before a vaccine has been developed. And Elliott said the federal government has not fulfilled some elements of its own plan, such as purchasing preventive doses of antivirals that would be reserved for medical personnel and first responders. So far, antiviral medicines are proving effective against the Mexico flu. Dr. Jeff Runge, former chief medical officer for Homeland Security, said it's clearly not a pandemic yet, but it's too early to tell. The next week or two will be critical.Runge seemed confident.We've come a long ways since we've been doing this pandemic flu planning,he said.

Forget Nukes -- Watch Out for Economic War MAY 1,09
http://www.foxbusiness.com

Fought with currencies, embargoes and hackers, economic warfare may lack the shock and awe of conventional battles but it could still pose a threat to the U.S., especially in these troubling economic times.Picture this hypothetical dreamed up by a national security expert obsessed with economic catastrophe:Angry that U.S. policies aimed at boosting the economy have devalued their $2 trillion of currency reserves, the Chinese decide to stop buying Treasurys just as America tries to finance its massive spending plans. In response, the U.S. imposes trade sanctions against China, which in turn pushes for a global currency. From there, the U.S. accuses China of manipulating its own currency and things escalate further.Without a shot being fired, those actions represent a type of unfriendly economic competition that some are very worried about.

Unstable Escalation

I think it’s very likely the participants wouldn’t call it a war. Each side would say they are acting in their best interest. But this could lead to an unstable escalation, said James Rickards, co-head of threat finance and market intelligence at consulting firm Omnis.The struggling U.S. economy and scary financial crisis could make such an escalation more likely and more damaging.On the one hand, you could say it [would have] less of an impact because we’re already in a more defensive posture due to the recession,said Dan Goure, vice president of the Lexington Institute, a nonprofit public-policy research organization.On the other hand, we’re closer to the edge so we have fewer resources.Rickards was more unequivocal, saying flatly,It definitely raises the stakes which could play out in some financial warfare scenarios.

To be sure, despite the worries from some experts, there is little to indicate an all-out economic war is in the offing, especially given shows of solidarity like at the recent G-20 meeting in London.They are all trying to go through this by working together and with coordinated fiscal stimulus. This is not something where there’s any talk of warfare, except potentially the Chinese situation,said Ernest Preeg, a former American ambassador to Haiti and a former White House economic official.

A Dry Run for Economic Warfare

Still, the Pentagon is apparently concerned enough to hold its first ever war game focused on economic warfare, according to a person familiar with the event. There was good news and bad news. The good news was the game worked successfully. The bad news is China won,the person told FOX Business.The Pentagon is planning similar war games in the future, the person said, underscoring worries about U.S. vulnerability during the current crisis.Even though this was a Bush Administration initiative, I think it resonated kind of well with the Obama Administration because they are a little bit more forward thinking” in terms of linking the economy with geopolitics, the person said.The existence of the war game was first disclosed by Politico.

China: A Formidable Opponent

It’s not surprising China won the war game, as the country is thought to be the most worrisome potential opponent. In fact, Chinese officials wrote a book in 1999 called Unrestricted Warfare, focusing on non-traditional modes of conflict such as economic war.If we’re doing our first war game in 2009 and they wrote the book 10 years ago, we’re a decade behind,said Goure.Like many military engagements, an economic war might have murky beginnings.I don’t think a country will wake up and say, I am declaring economic war on the United States. I think it will be tit for tat and misreading of intentions. It just escalates,said Rickards. Such an economic engagement can take various forms, including everything from currency dumping and cyber attacks on critical infrastructure to oil blockades and economic sanctions.

The form that seems most likely, China dumping its holdings of U.S. Treasurys, is actually probably the most far-fetched.In peacetime, that idea has very little plausibility because it will do much more damage to them than us,said Goure, citing the loss of value of their investments.Instead, China, which held 24.07% of foreign-owned Treasury securities as of January, could decide to stop buying U.S. debt, though the intentions behind such a move could be debated.It’s hard to say if that’s economic warfare or just good business practice,said Goure, half-joking.An economic war between the U.S. and another adversary would hardly be the world’s first. Countries have resorted to such measures in the forms of trade embargoes, blockades and protectionism for centuries.To take one recent example, the U.S. has considered economic sanctions to punish Iran for its nuclear programs. In response, Iran has said it could hold the world’s oil supply hostage by blocking the Persian Gulf’s export routes, a move that would likely damage the global economy.In a globalized world, the ability of one country to impact the economy of another, and hence affect it strategically, has grown exponentially from what it was before,said Goure.

Calling all Terrorists! Calling all Terrorists! MAY 2,09

Our country is really and profoundly in danger as our President and Napolitano have reminded us.As you know by now we are surrounded by a sea of domestic terrorists, just waiting to do us in or blow things up.Don’t you dare go out to dinner alone with your Pastor you might get murdered. Don’t even think about having coffee with anyone who is a vet or pro life, your throat will get slit.Your friend who wants fiscal responsibility with Government who you work with……well, watch your back! Granted even the Homeland Security report identifying so many patriots across our land as potential terrorists at least had the kindergarten level of honesty to say they had no statistics, facts or proof of that….they were just operating on theories and speculation. Isn’t that precious! Last I heard from my Mom and most my teachers growing up you weren’t supposed to yell FIRE in a crowded theatre……especially if there ain’t one!

It’s fascinating I think that now we are forbidden to talk about our war with Islamic Fundamentalists, radical Islam or Terrorists. Now we are fighting the ever so sensitive and meaningless,overseas contingency operation.We have heard speech after speech from the Obama administration about how we are not to be insensitive and inflammatory by using terms like Terrorist.For that matter,Obama declared to the Muslim world at the G20 meeting that we would never attack Islam. Apparently he had called the Psychic hotline which is off the air. The fascinating part is that with all the training, manipulation and concern about NOT using the term terrorism, that is precisely how the homeland security report identifies the made up homegrown dangers. WE ARE DOMESTIC TERRORISTS. No need to be sensitive there! For that matter, the report is a LIE so why be sensitive? Only to Fundamentalist Muslims worldwide are we to be ever so sensitive as they plan to manipulate more of Sharia law into place.That is of course,in-between our Pastors, returning Vets, prolifers, those who support our sovereignty and states rights, second amendment supporters, Christians and Tea Party attendees, blowing up buildings, attacking children, burning down clinics and planning assassinations! What is the new mental illness coming folks…..I have so many I want to follow this. Let me see…..Islamaphobe, Homophobe, racist……now drum roll……..Terrorista phobe. I guess there is not enough medication for me. Back to blowing up buildings.
