2ND TYPHOON(HURRICANE) LASHES PHILIPPINS IN A WEEK

HOARDING OF GOLD AND SILVER

DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD
then the angel said, Financial crisis will come to Asia. I will shake the world.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

REVELATION 13:16-18
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all,(WORLD SOCIALISM) both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(6-6-6) A NUMBER SYSTEM

THIS IS INTERESTING COULD IT BE DEC 21,2012 THAT THE STOCK MARKET COLLAPSES FOR GOOD AND THE EU INVENTS A MICROCHIP IMPLANT SYSTEM THAT CONTROLS ALL TRANSACTIONS AND INDIVIDUALS AT ALL TIME.WE WILL SEE.I WISH DEC 21,2012 WOULD BE THE DATE THAT JESUS COMES FOR US IN THE CLOUDS AT THE RAPTURE SO WE DO NOT GO THROUGH THE 7 YRS OF HELL ON EARTH.COME QUICKLY KING JESUS(GOD)

As most of you know the federal reserve was established 12/23/1913. The term of this charter is 100 years. Supposedly according to leap years this charter is to end on that magical Mayan date. Some say the date is 2013, I know the math is funny.

Iran assails two-state solution for Palestinians
APBy ALI AKBAR DAREINI - Associated Press | AP – OCT 1,11


TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran's supreme leader assailed a two state solution for Israel and the Palestinians on Saturday, saying the Palestinian bid for statehood at the United Nations is doomed to fail.Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said the Palestinians should not limit themselves to seeking a country based on the pre-1967 borders — which would implicitly recognize Israel — because all land belongs to Palestinians.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has asked the U.N. Security Council to recognize an independent Palestinian state in the West Bank, east Jerusalem and Gaza Strip — areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war.Israel and the U.S. oppose the U.N. bid, saying there is no substitute for direct negotiations. But with Israel continuing to build settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, Abbas says there is no point in talking.Iran doesn't recognize Israel and considers it an archenemy.Khamenei, who spoke at a pro-Palestinian conference in Tehran, once again called Israel a cancerous tumor that should be removed.Iran supports the militant Palestinian Hamas group, which rules Gaza and which does not back the statehood bid pushed by Abbas and his Western-backed Fatah.

Our claim is freedom of Palestine, not part of Palestine. Any plan that partitions Palestine is totally rejected, Khamenei told the gathering. Palestine spans from the river (Jordan) to the sea (Mediterranean), nothing less.Khamenei claimed that a two state solution would mean giving in to the demand of the Zionists and that it would trample the rights of the Palestinian people to live on their land.

Palestinians plan to oust Tony Blair from his role as Middle East peace envoy over bias to Israel-PLO motion to declare former PM persona non grata to be held later this week By Kirsty Walker and Phoebe Greenwood Last updated at 1:42 AM on 30th September 2011

Tony Blair’s job as a Middle East peace envoy is in jeopardy after officials in the Palestinian Authority accused him of acting like an extreme Israeli diplomat.
Senior figures in the Palestine Liberation Organisation are reported to be planning to sever all contact with the former prime minister.They described Mr Blair as persona non grata and said they were looking to isolate the former PM so his position became untenable on the international stage.Mr Blair has been viewed with an element of distrust by some Palestinians ever since his appointment as the envoy of the Quartet on the Middle East – the mediating body comprising the United States, the EU, the UN and Russia.He was handed the job the day he left Downing Street in June 2007. But antagonism has mounted over allegations that he lobbied European powers to vote against a Palestinian bid for statehood which was submitted to the UN last week.One senior Palestinian official told the Daily Mail yesterday: He does not represent the international community but works according to his own opinion, which he shares with the more extreme Israelis. We see him as an Israeli diplomat.

We will not be unhappy to see his back but when he leaves is something for the Quartet to decide.Another added: There is no one within the Palestinian leadership that supports or likes or trusts Tony Blair, particularly because of the very damaging role he played during our UN bid.He is considered persona non grata in Palestine. Although we can’t prevent him from coming here, we can hopefully minimise the role he can play because he is not a mediator, he is totally biased on one side.Mr Blair has been based between London and the luxurious American Colony Hotel in Jerusalem since leaving 10 Downing Street in 2007.A storm of suspicion and disapproval has been building among Palestinians since his first days in the region. Many were surprised and disappointed when he failed to speak out against Israel’s invasion of Gaza in January 2009, which left as many as 1,417 Palestinians dead.
Anger: Blair's failure to address Israel's continuing building of settlements in the West Bank was key to his draft proposal being rejected.Anger: Blair's failure to address Israel's continuing building of settlements in the West Bank was key to his draft proposal being rejected.Many also accuse Mr Blair of placing his business interests above his diplomatic responsibilities. A conflict of interest was posed by his £2million-a-year job as consultant for investment bank JP Morgan and his executive role at Tony Blair Associates.Labour MP Paul Flynn said: There is no question in my mind that Tony Blair is incredibly sympathetic to the Israeli cause and throughout his time as an envoy there has been a question mark about whether he fully understands the position of the Arab countries.He is not the honest broker that he pretends to be.A spokesman for the Palestinian Authority said its negotiators often talked to people they did not like.A spokesman for Mr Blair insisted he had no plans to leave the Middle East, adding: He is there for the long term, as he has been from day one.

Merkel questions new Israeli settlements
APAP – OCT 1,11


BERLIN (AP) — German Chancellor Angela Merkel has told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the decision to green-light new Jewish housing units in east Jerusalem has raised doubts that the Israeli government is interested in starting serious negotiations with the Palestinians, her spokesman said Friday.Steffen Seibert said in a statement that Merkel called Netanyahu to tell him it is now necessary to dispel those doubts.Seibert said Merkel told Netanyahu it is important to start negotiations as soon as possible on a two-state solution and that in the meantime both sides must refrain from provocative acts.Germany enjoys close relations with both Israel and the Palestinians, and has been frequently involved in acting as a neutral party to help negotiations between the two sides.Merkel has also been a strong supporter of the need for a negotiated two-state solution.But in the latest setback, Israel announced Tuesday that it has approved the new construction in the Jewish neighborhood of Gilo in southeast Jerusalem. The Palestinians condemned the plan, and the U.S., European Union and United Nations all swiftly expressed their disappointment over the settlements, which raised already heightened tensions after last week's Palestinian move to seek U.N. membership.

The Palestinians have demanded that Israel halt all settlement construction in east Jerusalem, which the Palestinians claim as their future capital, and the adjacent West Bank — territories captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war — as a condition for resuming peace talks.Since capturing east Jerusalem, Israel has annexed the area and ringed it with about 10 Jewish enclaves that are meant to solidify its control. Gilo, which is close to the Palestinian city of Bethlehem, is among the largest, with about 50,000 residents. Israel's annexation of east Jerusalem has not been internationally recognized.

China vows to punish posters of Internet rumors
APAP – OCT 1,11


BEIJING (AP) — China is vowing anew to punish people who post rumors and falsehoods on the Internet as the government tries to rein in forums that have increasingly become sources of debate and criticism.A spokesperson for the State Internet Information Office, a regulatory body under China's Cabinet, said in a statement released late Friday that Internet rumors and hoaxes were malignant tumors that harm social stability. The unnamed spokesperson's statement, which was carried by the official Xinhua News Agency, called on Internet users to abide by laws and stop spreading rumors, and urged websites to up their policing of content.Drawing the spokesperson's particular ire were the salacious, sarcastic postings on the popular Twitter-like Sina Weibo service that purported to be from a 22-year-old prostitute but were really posted by a 31-year-old male editor. Xinhua said the prostitute's diary account attracted more than 250,000 followers before the author's true identity was discovered and the account shut down.Social media sites that are platforms for users to generate content are posing a challenge for China's authoritarian government, which is used to controlling what media tell people. After a crash on the showcase high-speed rail system in July, the government lost control of the message on the Internet, as people questioned, criticized and ridiculed the official response.

Soon afterward, the government began issuing warnings about untrammeled speech on the Internet and the need for companies to remove rumors and false news, which are widely seen as code words for criticisms. The spokesperson's statement ordered local authorities and websites to penalize offenders.Under Chinese regulations, spreading rumors is punishable by five to 10 days in jail plus a 500 yuan ($80) fine. In March this year, a resident of the city of Hangzhou received the maximum penalty for warning people to stay away from seafood from eastern China because the seas were being contaminated by leaks from the Japanese nuclear power plant damaged by the earthquake and tsunami.Twitter-like micro-blogs, which have about 200 million users in China, have come under particular scrutiny. After Sina Corp. received a pointed visit from a Politburo member, the company said it would freeze the accounts on its widely used Weibo service for a month of anyone found spreading rumors.

Slovakia poses increasing threat to EU bail-out fund
30.09.11 @ 16:57 By Honor Mahony and Renata Goldirova


Plans to strengthen the firepower of the eurozone's bail-out fund may be put in jeopardy by Slovakia, where a coalition stalemate is prompting the government to consider asking for a special derogation.Last in line to vote, Slovakia's parliament is supposed to pass two pieces of legislation - one agreeing the framework of the new fund and a second piece that would formally raise Bratislava's guarantees from €4.4 billion to €7.7 billion.However, the junior ruling coalition party Freedom and Solidarity remain steadfastly opposed to raising the country's contribution, depriving the centre-right Christian Union party of Prime Minister Iveta Radicova of the necessary threshold of votes.According to sources in Bratislava, the government is now looking to see if it can secure a formal declaration on its contribution, understood to mean that Slovakia's money would be ring-fenced.But Brussels on Friday (30 September) promptly dismissed the hoped-for exit route, reminding Slovakia that it fully signed up to a 21 July agreement of EU leaders that would increase the fund to €440 billion, and each participating country's share in it.Other member states, when the political reality was very difficult, voted and ratified the agreements concerning the enhancement of the EFSF, said the European Commission's economic affairs spokesperson, making a special reference the eurozone's paymaster Germany, which on Thursday agreed to raise it share of guarantees from €123 bllion to €211 billion.He noted that the euro has been very beneficial for Slovakia and that it is in the selfish interest of Slovak citizens and politicians to have the changes greenlighted.The spokesperson also rejected the notion that Brussels was considering some sort of contingency plan. There is no plan B because we have a Plan A,he said.

Privately, the language of EU officials has been stronger. One high-ranking official said the mooted demand would be unacceptable while others noted that Slovakia's international reputation would take a hammering if it failed to ratify the fund.
Slovakia's EU commissioner Maros Sefcovic, currently on a trip to his home country, said he was convinced that that the solution being considered by the government would be hardly acceptable for our partners.The enhanced fund, whose new rules would allow it to buy the debt of eurozone countries, capitalise troubled banks and give pre-emptive credit lines to governments, needs to be approved by all 17 eurozone states.Slovakia, where political debate has focussed on the justification for per capita poorer Slovaks bailing out richer Greeks, emerged almost immediately as the country likely to have the most profound problems.The Slovak debate is likely to make markets even more sceptical about the eurozone's political willingness to take all necessary measures to save the single currency.The €440 billion is already viewed as far too small to deal with possible contagion to Spain and Italy and the Europe's under-funded banks, with informal talks already underway to leverage the fund to give it a credit capacity of €2 trillion.

EU offers to buy Belarus for $9bn
30.09.11 @ 16:57 By Andrew Rettman


EU leaders have promised authoritarian Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko $9 billion if he frees political prisoners and holds normal elections.Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk unveiled the offer at a press event at an EU summit with post-Soviet countries in Warsaw on Friday (30 September). The money would come in the form of loans from two EU banks, the EIB and EBRD, and from the International Monetary Fund in Washington. Lukashenko would not have to step down as part of the deal. But he would have to free political prisoners and, later on, hold EU-and-US-recognised elections, which would most likely see him ejected.For the first time we see a situation in which the EU, very decisively and in a spirit of solidarity, makes help for Belarus conditional on tangible changes. These are not radical changes. This is the bare minimum that any European person expects, Tusk said.The EU's offer comes amid an economic crisis in the former Soviet republic. But Lukashenko has shown no interest so far.He refused to send an ambassador to join the 25-or-so EU and post-Soviet leaders in Warsaw. The Poles set up an empty chair and a Belarus name tag to symbolise their invitation despite his snub.

The last time the EU proposed money for reforms - $3 billion in December - Lukashenko reacted with a massive crackdown on opposition, which saw police manhandle EU ambassadors on the streets of Minsk. The last time the IMF lent him money to stabilise the rubel, he spent part of it on bigger wages for officials in the run-up to elections.EU countries in Warsaw also signed a declaration condemning repression in Belarus. But the leaders of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine refused to add their names. Diplomats say Georgia feared revenge in the form of Belarus' recognition of its breakaway provinces. Ukraine feared trade problems with its neighbour.EU leaders again warned Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, who was in Warsaw, not to jail his political rival, former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko, if he wants an EU trade and political association pact to ever come into life.The same day in Kiev prosecutors said she should get seven years for an allegedly illegal gas deal with Russia. Polish diplomats were worried she might be jailed on the day of the summit. But the judge put off the verdict until 11 October.
The Warsaw event was designed to promote the Eastern Partnership policy - a mixed bag of visa and trade pacts, as well as mini-projects like training post-Soviet civil servants in a new academy in Poland, designed to pull the countries closer to the West.Tusk noted that while the summit declaration acknowledged the European aspirations of some of the six nations, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine had hoped for more explicit language on EU accession. We don't today have strong enough signals to say this, neither from the EU side, nor from the side of our partners, Tusk explained, referring to enlargement fatigue in the union and inadequate reforms in the EU aspirants.

For his part, Hungarian leader Viktor Orban, speaking alongside Tusk, made clear some EU countries see the Eastern Partnership as preparation for future expansion. The Eastern Partnership project will perhaps one day merge with the Balkan project, he said, referring to EU commitments to take in former Yugoslav countries.The summit made Tusk look like an international statesman in the run-up to Polish elections on 9 October.EU commission chief Jose Manuel Barroso praised his exceptional leadership.Orban said he was wonderful and brave. Tusk's pro-EU Civic Platform party currently leads the eurosceptic Law and Justice opposition by 12 points in polls.

Earthquakes Can Ravage Coral Reefs, Study Reveals
LiveScience.comLiveScience.com – SEPT 30,11


Coral reefs are plagued by a long list of problems that can injure the fragile ocean ecosystems: Ocean acidification due to global warming, plankton blooms, emerging diseases, pollution and overfishing. Researchers have now added one more to that list: earthquakes.Just as earthquakes can cause devastation on the ground, they can also be catastrophic underwater, a new study has found.In May 2009, a 7.3 magnitude earthquake hit the western Caribbean, causing avalanches in half of the lagoonal reefs in Belize studied by Richard Aronson, head of the department of biological sciences at the Florida Institute of Technology. It was, however, not the first event to wipe out large portions of the reef.Aronson and his team have been studying the same 144-square-mile (373 square kilometers) area for more than 20 years and their data provide insight on how to better manage the world's reefs to protect them from disasters, both natural and manmade.You can't say, we can develop this coastline and leave this one area as an example of coral reef or intertidal habitat, Aronson told OurAmazingPlanet.Because if something bad happens, then you have nothing.

Series of unfortunate events

The coral reefs along the shelf lagoon in Belize are estimated to be about 8,000 to 9,000 years old, based on Aronson's work. For at least half of that time, staghorn coral dominated the mixture of coral species, until 1986, when white-band disease ripped through seas and oceans, killing many reefs. With 99 percent of the staghorn coral gone, lettuce coral came in throughout the next decade.Then the episodic El NiƱo–Southern Oscillation came along in 1998, and the warmer waters it brought to the region bleached the coral — bleaching is a process where coral's symbiotic algae are expelled, turning it white.The reefs were already weakened from these two events, and to make matters worse, the particular reef Aronson studied is uncemented, meaning it's not securely fastened to the lagoon walls as most other reefs are. Then, in 2009, the earthquake hit.The surface just slabbed off,Aronson said, likening it to an avalanche in a ski bowl. He and his team estimated that a similar event occurred about 2,000 to 4,000 years before, and it took that long for the reef to fully recover. By happenstance we have all of these unprecedented things going on at the same time,he said.

Coral conservation

The reef will return, but it is tough to say what it will be made of and if the former dominant species will come back. There are some juvenile lettuce corals in deeper water, so Aronson said that it's possible they will provide the seed for new corals. However, the recovery will likely take centuries to millennia instead of decades.One key to conservation, both on land and underwater, will be to have large connected areas — and not just pockets of smaller reefs — to ensure that when one area is devastated there are reserves that can provide seed stock so the damaged area can regrow.Corals do have the capacity to adapt just like everything on this planet, Aronson said. There's some probability that there will be another event of this sort in this area in the next thousand of years. If we're really going to plan for the long term, let's really plan for the long term.

Canadian Arctic nearly loses entire ice shelf
APBy CHARMAINE NORONHA - Associated Press | AP – SEPT 30,11


TORONTO (AP) — Two ice shelves that existed before Canada was settled by Europeans diminished significantly this summer, one nearly disappearing altogether, Canadian scientists say in new research.The loss is important as a marker of global warming, returning the Canadian Arctic to conditions that date back thousands of years, scientists say. Floating icebergs that have broken free as a result pose a risk to offshore oil facilities and potentially to shipping lanes. The breaking apart of the ice shelves also reduces the environment that supports microbial life and changes the look of Canada's coastline.Luke Copland is an associate professor in the geography department at the University of Ottawa who co-authored the research. He said the Serson Ice Shelf shrank from 79.15 square miles (205 square kilometers) to two remnant sections three years ago, and was further diminished this past summer.

Copland said the shelf went from a 16-square-mile (42-square-kilometer) floating glacier tongue to 9.65 square miles (25 square kilometers), and the second section from 13.51 square miles (35 square kilometers) to 2 square miles (7 square kilometers), off Ellesmere Island's northern coastline.This past summer, Ward Hunt Ice Shelf's central area disintegrated into drifting ice masses, leaving two separate ice shelves measuring 87.65 and 28.75 square miles (227 and 74 square kilometers) respectively, reduced from 131.7 square miles (340 square kilometers) the previous year.It has dramatically broken apart in two separate areas and there's nothing in between now but water, said Copland.Copland said those two losses are significant, especially since the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf has always been the biggest, the farthest north and the one scientists thought might have been the most stable.
Recent (ice shelf) loss has been very rapid, and goes hand-in-hand with the rapid sea ice decline we have seen in this decade and the increasing warmth and extensive melt in the Arctic regions, said Ted Scambos, lead scientist at the National Snow and Ice Data Center at the University of Colorado, remarking on the research.

Copland, who uses satellite imagery and who has conducted field work in the Arctic every May for the past five years, said since the end of July, pieces equaling one and a half times the size of Manhattan Island have broken off. Co-researcher Derek Mueller, an assistant professor at Carleton University's geography and environmental studies department, said the loss this past summer equals up to three billion tons. Copland said their findings have not yet been peer reviewed since the research is new, but a number of scientists contacted by The Associated Press reviewed the findings, agreeing the loss in volume of ice shelves is significant.Scambos said the loss of the Arctic shelves is significant because they are old and their rapid loss underscores the severity of the warming trend scientists see now relative to past fluctuations such as the Medieval Warm Period or the warmer times in the pre-Current Era (B.C.).Ice shelves, which began forming at least 4,500 years ago, are much thicker than sea ice, which is typically less than a few feet (meters) thick and survives up to several years.Canada has the most extensive ice shelves in the Arctic along the northern coast of Ellesmere Island. These floating ice masses are typically 131 feet (40 meters) thick (equivalent to a 10-story building), but can be as much as 328 feet (100 meters) thick. They thickened over time via snow and sea ice accumulation, along with glacier inflow in certain places.The northern coast of Ellesmere Island contains the last remaining ice shelves in Canada, with an estimated area of 217 square miles (563 square kilometers), Mueller said.Between 1906 and 1982, there has been a 90 percent reduction in the areal extent of ice shelves along the entire coastline, according to data published by W.F. Vincent at Quebec's Laval University. The former extensive Ellesmere Island Ice Sheet was reduced to six smaller, separate ice shelves: Serson, Petersen, Milne, Ayles, Ward Hunt and Markham. In 2005, the Ayles Ice Shelf whittled almost completely away, as did the Markham Ice Shelf in 2008 and the Serson this year.

The impact is significant and yet only a piece of the ongoing and accelerating response to warming of the Arctic, said Dr. Robert Bindschadler, emeritus scientist at the Hydrospheric and Biospheric Sciences Laboratory at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland.Bindschadler said the loss is an indication of another threshold being passed, as well as the likely acceleration of buttressed glaciers able to flow faster into the ocean, which accelerates their contribution to global sea level.Copland said mean winter temperatures have risen by about 1 degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) per decade for the past five to six decades on northern Ellesmere Island.(This version CORRECTS Corrects in paragraph 3 that Serson Ice Shelf shrank to two remant sections three years ago, not five years ago; and in paragraph 13 the size of the last remaining ice shelves in Canada.

2nd typhoon in week lashes rain-soaked Philippines
APBy OLIVER TEVES - Associated Press | AP – OCT 1,11


MANILA, Philippines (AP) — The second typhoon in a week battered the rain-soaked northern Philippines on Saturday, adding misery to the lives of thousands of people, some of whom were still perched on rooftops from previous flooding.Thousands of people were ordered to evacuate their homes after Typhoon Nalgae slammed ashore south of northeastern Palanan Bay in Isabela province with winds of 100 miles (160 kilometers) per hour and dangerous gusts of 121 mph (195 kph). At least one person was killed in a landslide.The fast-moving typhoon blew westward, barreling across the mountainous regions of Luzon Island. It weakened slightly as it reached the shore of La Union province around 4 p.m. (0800 GMT), about seven hours after it made landfall.Forecasters said it will be over South China Sea by Saturday night and is expected to regain strength over the water as it heads farther west toward Hainan and Vietnam.A landslide in northern Bontoc province smashed into a passenger van on a mountain highway, killing one passenger and injuring another, Civil Defense chief Benito Ramos said.The typhoon took a similar path across areas on Luzon saturated by Typhoon Nesat, which trapped thousands on rooftops and sent huge waves that breached a seawall in Manila Bay. The Office of Civil Defense said the death toll from Nesat has risen to 52 after two more victims drowned in its floodwaters. It said 31 others were missing.

Nesat also pummeled southern China and was downgraded to a tropical storm just before churning into northern Vietnam on Friday afternoon, where flood warnings were issued and 20,000 people evacuated. There were no immediate reports of casualties in Vietnam and the country did not appear to have suffered any major problems.In the Philippines, nearly 400,000 hunkered down in evacuation centers and in homes of relatives and friends along the new typhoon's path. There was heavy rainfall of about an inch (25 millimeters) an hour within the storm's 340-mile (630-kilometer) diameter that put the northern provinces including the capital on alert.Isabela authorities earlier shut down electricity in the province to prevent accidents from falling power pylons and snapped cables.The howling winds toppled trees and blew away tin roofs of some houses in Isabela's provincial capital of Ilagan. In nearby Luna township, a bus with about 30 passengers fell on its side on a rice field because of the strong winds, but no one was seriously injured, police said.The ground is still supersaturated and it cannot absorb more water, said Graciano Yumul, the Philippines' weather bureau chief. This will just flow down to rivers and towns, and there is a big possibility that landslides, flash flooding and flooding could occur.He urged residents still refusing to leave their homes despite the floods from Typhoon Nesat to evacuate because the water was going to rise as Typhoon Nalgae, aggravated by the seasonal monsoon, dumped more rain over the northern region, including the capital, Manila, later Saturday.Yumul said the evacuation is non-negotiable because lives are at stake.At least five towns in the rice-growing province of Bulacan and Pampanga, north of Manila, remained submerged three days after Typhoon Nesat had moved on.We have nowhere to go, Celenia Espino of Calumpit township said from her home, which was filled with knee-deep murky water. We have no means of transportation out of here.She was one of the thousands who sought shelter on rooftops with no food, water and electricity, while a procession of other residents waded in chest-deep water down main roads to reach dry land.Ramos said rescue boats would be sent for the residents before nightfall.Elsewhere, Ramos said there had been no contact with several coastal towns facing the Pacific Ocean that were in the path of the typhoon hours after it made landfall. There was no electricity and mobile telephone cell sites had been damaged and communication to the area would be re-established after the typhoon passed, he said.Civil defense officer Evaliza Agamata of Nueva Vizcaya — one of the four provinces facing the Pacific that are affected — said 5,000 people had been ordered evacuated from there, adding to 6,000 still in evacuation centers from the earlier typhoon.In the last four months, prolonged monsoon flooding, typhoon and storms across Southeast Asia, China, Japan and South Asia has left more than 600 people dead or missing.In India alone, the damage is estimated to be worth $1 billion, with the worst-hit state of Orissa accounting for $726 million.

Several studies suggest an intensification of the Asian summer monsoon rainfall with increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, the state-run Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology said. Still, it is not clear that this is entirely because of climate change, especially in India, it said.The damage from the earlier typhoon in the Philippines was estimated at $91 million.Nalgae, a Korean word for wing, was forecast to reach Luzon's western shore Saturday evening and exit into the South China Sea as a weakened category-1 typhoon as it moves toward China's Hainan Island on Monday.Associated Press writer Margie Mason in Hanoi, Vietnam, contributed to this report.

US missile strike kills 3 in northwest Pakistan
APBy ISHTIAQ MAHSUD - Associated Press | AP – OCT 1,11


DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan (AP) — A U.S. missile strike killed three suspected militants in a Pakistani tribal region near the Afghan border on Friday, a reminder of the weapons at American disposal at a time of intense strain with Islamabad, two Pakistan officials said.Stepping up the tempo of the missile strikes is seen as one possible American option if Pakistan does not act on Washington's stepped up demands to attack Afghan militants sheltering on the Pakistani side of the border.Last week, U.S. officials accused Pakistan's spy agency of assisting the Haqqani militant faction in attacks on Western targets in Afghanistan, the most serious allegation yet of Pakistani duplicity in the 10-year war.The drone-fired missiles hit a vehicle near the Angore Adda border town of South Waziristan, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. The victims were associates of Maulvi Nazir, a prominent militant commander in the region, according to the officials.South Waziristan was the main sanctuary for the Pakistani and foreign militants until the military launched an offensive there in 2009. The region has also witnessed scores of American drone attacks.

The missile attacks are seen at the most effective weapon Washington has at hitting al-Qaida and Afghan militants like the Haqqanis in the northwest. There were more than 100 such attacks last year; this year there have been around 50.Most have hit targets in neighboring North Waziristan, considering the main militant sanctuary and the base of the Haqqani network. The Pakistani army has refused to launch an operation in North Waziristan despite U.S. demands, leading to speculation that Washington may consider more unilateral options.Sending ground troops in could risk a confrontation with Pakistani soldiers and lead to a rupture in the alliance.Drone strikes are unpopular, but have been tolerated by the Pakistani army.

CIA Target Their Own Asset: Nightly News Report
Infowars Nightly News Oct 1, 2011


During the news blitz, Infowars Nightly News discusses top al Qaeda operative and CIA double-agent Anwar al-Awlaki, who was reportedly killed by a predator drone in Libya. Documents now famously prove that he dined at the Pentagon with top brass just months after 9/11, despite being connected to at least three hijackers and being interviewed by the FBI multiple times. Awlaki has since emerged as a key link between dozens of alleged terror plots inside the U.S. and abroad, including the Ft. Hood shootings, the Underwear Bomber, shoebomber Richard Reid and more.

Radical US-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki killed-Anwar al-Awlaki, a US-born al-Qaeda leader, was killed in a drone strike in central Yemen, the country’s military has announced.U.S.-born radical Yemeni cleric Imam Anwar al-Awlaki By Damien McElroy, Foreign Affairs Correspondent 10:22AM BST 30 Sep 2011

Fluent in English and driven by a hatred of his homeland, Awlaki has been a pivotal figure in the group. A skilled propagandist, he was the spokesman for al-Qaeda in the Arabian Penninsula (AQAP) and had inspired daring attacks by the group worldwide.
Yemeni security forces said they had conducted an operation to target Awlaki and his bodyguards in Marib province. Western sources said a US drone strike had hit his convoy in a remote area and that local military commanders had confirmed his death.
President Barack Obama authorised the US military to target Awlaki last year, a controversial and legally fraught move in light of his US citizenship. Awlaki had inspired serval audacious attacks in recent years including the 2009 Christmas underwear bomber, an attack in Fort Hood military base by a US army major and the stabbing of Stephen Timms MP.One tribal chief in the area of the attack said that the plane that carried out the strike was likely to be American, adding that US aircraft had been patrolling the skies over Marib for the past several days.

US planes have been flying overhead for days now, said the tribal source would requested anonymity. Then this morning, at about 9:30, what appeared to be a US aircraft fired on the two cars Awlaqi and his fellow operatives are believed to have been travelling in.Born in New Mexico in the United States in 1971, Awlaki is a U.S. citizen. He graduated in civil engineering from Colorado State University and holds a master’s degree in educational leadership from San Diego State University.Awlaki’s family is well-known in Yemen. His father is a former agriculture minister, Nasser al-Awlaki.Awlaki is a former imam of mosques in Denver, San Diego and Falls Church, Virginia. Two of those mosques were attended by some of the September 11, 2001, hijackers. He travelled to Yemen in 2004, where he taught at a university before he was arrested and imprisoned in 2006 for suspected links to al Qaeda and involvement in attacks.He was released in December 2007 because he said he had repented, a Yemeni security official said. But he was later charged again on similar counts and went into hiding.Last year the U.S. administration authorised operations to capture or kill Awlaki. Awlaki is a proven threat, said a U.S. official at the time. He’s being targeted.Michael Leiter, America’s chief counter-terrorism official said Awlaki and AQAP probably posed the most significant risk to the US homeland.He reportedly survived an attack by a U.S. drone in Yemen in May, according to Al- Arabiya television, which cited a member of his tribe.He is an excellent role model for what al-Qaeda wants its recruits to be in terms of English language, having exposure to the United States or the West, and adhering to the doctrine of al-Qaeda, said Theodore Karasik, director of research at the Dubai-based Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis.A May 18 report by analyst Carl Ungerer of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute said Awlaki was the world’s main Islamic-militant security threat because he can recruit directly in English to persuade a broader, more disparate group of people to operate on their own, rather than in the centralized organization built by Osama bin Laden and largely dismantled since 2001.

Ya’alon: No Negotiations with this PA Leadership-Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya’alon in a Rosh Hashanah interview: Facing this PA leadership there are no prospects for peace.By Elad Benari, Canada First Publish: 9/29/2011, 12:04 AM

Israel’s Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Strategic Affairs, Moshe Ya’alon, gave a special interview to Arutz Sheva on Wednesday for Rosh Hashanah. During the interview Ya’alon summed up last week’s events in the United Nations and said that Israel should not conduct negotiations with the Palestinian Authority as long as its current leadership remains the same.Arutz Sheva: One can summarize the events at the UN and say that you are quite satisfied with Netanyahu’s speech.Ya’alon: We’re satisfied not just with Netanyahu’s speech but also by the Palestinians’ failure to make their unilateral move. The Palestinians have been consistently avoiding negotiations since the dawn of Zionism. It was seen in Arafat’s response to Barak’s offer in 2000, it was seen when Abbas avoided Olmert’s offer in 2008, and now Abbas is avoiding negotiations by going to the United Nations unilaterally. We are also satisfied by the fact that all these threats and scenarios of a tsunami, international isolation and an intifada did not come true, and the move appears to be a failure.Is it indeed a failure? They are going to the Security Council and promoting it there. We’re relying on an American veto. It’s not exactly a failure.

Unfortunately in the United Nations, with us being the only Jewish state alongside 22 Arab countries and more than 50 Muslim countries, there is no place to look for justice, and yet the Palestinians have no majority in the Security Council to pass their application. There is an important American stance here which is going to veto, a stance which, by the way, was changed due to Israel’s actions, and now the U.S. is in the same position as us, that the unilateral move is unacceptable and will bring about a second Hamastan. We need to see Obama’s speech as a significant process of change since he took office.How much will we have to pay politically for this embrace? We already heard Netanyahu saying in the United States that he is willing to talk about freezing construction.We talk about entering negotiations without preconditions and say that we are ready to talk about everything, but the fundamental questions we raised were answered with a resounding no, for example of a future consent, not a condition for beginning negotiations, to recognize Israel as a Jewish nation, and we were told that it will never happen. So what can we talk about? Abbas is asking what will happen with the Arabs of 1948 and what will happen with the right of return. Barak revealed the face of Arafat, Olmert revealed the face of Abbas even though he and Livni claim that the process was stopped because of the elections, which is a lie. With our demand for recognition we exposed Abbas’ true face and we did it without it even costing us a political price.As someone who knows the PA’s internal dialogue very well, do you believe that there is one PA leader who could accept this demand and stay alive?

If that’s the situation then we would be better off not to ignore it or sweep it under the rug. It has been my contention ever since I was head of Military Intelligence in 1995, when I realized that even in Oslo they did not recognize Israel’s right to exist within borders of any kind, and that the entire move was meant to be a Trojan horse that will allow them to enter Palestine. It is good that the people of Israel know this and not fool themselves. One of the worst things that happened to us is that we adopted their narrative and we covered up the fact that never have they had a leadership that was willing to recognize Israel’s right to exist.So this demand for recognition is only to expose their faces? It’s not a real requirement for negotiations? This is a genuine and basic demand, because without it any agreement we sign would be just another stage in the conflict. People ask why we did not demand this from the Egyptians and the Jordanians and the answer is simple: because they have no claim on Sheikh Munis, Haifa, Akko and Ashkelon. In contrast, the Palestinians view Israeli Arabs as being part of them so they are not prepared to see a return to 1949 armistice lines as an end to the conflict.Do you believe that there is some sort of outline of an agreement that ensures the Palestinian state will be demilitarized and that Hamas would not take over it the next day? We’re not there yet, because of their lack of willingness to recognize us. After all, in his speech Abbas denied the connection of the Jews to their land. He spoke only of the Muslim and Christian connection to Israel. He argues that there is no Jewish nation. Does anyone think we can sign an agreement with them when their young generation is brought up according to such perceptions? It appears from what you are saying that you do not really believe there are any prospects to these negotiations.

In this situation facing this leadership there definitely are no prospects, and it’s better that all of us know this. It’s important that an Israeli majority that recognizes reality take shape, without illusions of peace now or disengagement. When we are united, the world opinion will be with us.The left and the world say that the Netanyahu government has a credibility problem. Maybe they’re right, because here you are proving how little chance such negotiations have and yet you’re still talking about the vision of two states.We say that we do not want to rule over them. They have political independence and we are ready to strengthen it in those areas for which they are responsible, but if they do not respect our right to exist, why should we start talking with them about territory? We are ready to have them conduct their lives in their area of autonomy.And given all this, when will the Likud government fulfill its nationalist platform and finally build after so many years in Judea and Samaria? Because of the sensitivity of the situation which we received, of political processes that previous governments conducted, we have been cautious. We had to accept commitments of previous governments, including a commitment not to establish new Jewish communities, but insisted on continuing construction. So there are periods of sensitivity but construction continues and the number of residents in Judea and Samaria is growing.Before the events at the UN there was talk of the possibility of annexing Judea and Samaria as a response to the PA’s move. Is it feasible? There is no doubt that the Palestinians going to the UN is a gross violation of the Oslo Accords. We held discussions about the possibilities that lie in our hands in response to this move. We are considering our options. We will hold discussions with the Prime Minister about both the Quartet’s offer as well as the Palestinian move on and make our decisions.As a member of the ministerial team on Migron, do you know what exactly happened that night of the destruction, and why?

It was clear that the three homes were built without permits. Minister Begin and I were in talks with the residents of the community about some ways to deal with the problem. Unfortunately, we were surprised with a move that was decided by the defense minister. The issue is being clarified among the ministers and the prime minister and the defense minister. I hope that lessons can be learned from that incident, too.Thank you very much.Thank you, and I wish to take this opportunity to wish you and all the people of Israel a Shana Tova, a good new year.(Arutz Sheva’s North American Desk is keeping you updated until the start of Rosh Hashanah in New York.

PA Statehood Bid Submitted to UN Sub-committee-The PA's unilateral statehood bid has been submitted to a 15-member Security Council sub-committee for further debate. By Elad Benari, Canada First Publish: 9/28/2011, 9:14 PM

The Palestinian Authority’s request for statehood at the United Nations moved to the next level on Wednesday, after the UN Security Council unanimously approved to transfer the request to a sub-committee for further examination.According to a report on Israel’s Channel 10 News, the sub-committee will be made up of representatives from the 15 members of the Security Council. It will review the request and submit conclusions in a few weeks’ time.The report noted that the sub-committee will first meet to discuss the bid on Friday, adding that such requests usually take a period of up to 35 days to discuss but that in this case it will likely take longer.Meanwhile, the PLO’s Observer in the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, welcomed the move and expressed hope that the process will be expedited.

We are grateful to the Security Council for promoting our request, Mansour was quoted as saying after the meeting at the UN headquarters in New York.The process is advancing step by step and we hope that the Security Council will bear the responsibilities it faces and approve our request.In contrast, Israel’s Ambassador to the UN, Ron Prosor, said that Israel is once again calling on the PA’s leadership to return to direct negotiations which will discuss all core issues.A real and lasting Palestinian state will not be achieved by the force of external factors, but only through direct negotiations, stressed Prosor.Prosor added that the Israeli government has not yet arrived at a final decision on whether to agree to the timetable for negotiations presented last week by the Middle East Quartet. Earlier on Wednesday it was reported that the Israeli Cabinet is likely to accept the timetable.In any case, Prosor stressed that the plan to build 1,100 new housing units in the Gilo neighborhood of Jerusalem should not be an obstacle to negotiations.Everything on the table, everything is negotiable, but the Palestinians use every excuse to avoid negotiations, he was quoted as saying.(Arutz Sheva’s North American Desk is keeping you updated until the start of Rosh Hashanah in New York.

Climate change to cost Canada billions: panel
ReutersBy David Ljunggren | Reuters – SEPT 29,11


OTTAWA (Reuters) - Climate change will cause damage in Canada equivalent to around 1 percent of GDP in 2050 as rising temperatures kill off forests, flood low-lying areas and cause more illnesses, an official panel said on Thursday.The National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy said Canada's Conservative government - criticized by green activists for not doing enough to fight global warming - should take measures to mitigate the effects of climate change, which most scientists blame on greenhouse gas emissions.The north of Canada, the world's second largest country, is warming up at a much faster pace than the rest of the Earth.
Climate change presents a growing, long-term economic burden for Canada, said the NRTEE, which the government set up in 1988 to provide advice on environmental issues.

According to the most likely scenario outlined by the panel, the damage done by global warming would be between 0.8 percent and 1 percent of GDP by 2050 and could hit almost 2.5 percent by 2075.The magnitude of costs depends upon a combination of two factors: global emissions growth and Canadian economic and population growth, the panel said.Depending on how fast the world heats up and what actions Ottawa takes, the NRTEE said the damage in 2050 could range from C$21 billion ($20 billion) to C$43 billion a year.The panel recommended several measures to help limit damage from climate change:
* enhance forest fire prevention, control pests, and plant climate-resilient tree species
* prohibit new construction in areas at risk of flooding in coastal areas
* install pollution control technologies to limit ozone formation.

Opposition legislators said the report showed the Conservatives needed to do much more to fight global warming.Our coastal communities, our forestry industry, and the health of Canadians will all suffer unless we take action right now. Yet this out-of-touch government has produced no plan to deal with the impact of climate change, said Laurin Liu of the official opposition New Democrats.Environment Minister Peter Kent responded by saying the report showed the importance of adapting to climate change.Canadians, he told legislators, wanted a strong, stable, environmentally responsible ... government to take care of the environment, and that is exactly what we are doing.The NRTEE said Canada would benefit from a global treaty that systematically reduced carbon emissions beyond 2012, when the first stage of the Kyoto Protocol expires.Canada walked away from Kyoto after the Conservatives took power in 2006 and subsequently adopted a much more modest target for emissions cuts. John Bennett of the Sierra Club mocked Kent by condemning what he said was a stubborn, deaf, environmentally irresponsible, antiquarian government.
The NRTEE largely dismissed the idea that global warming could help a northern country like Canada by reducing heating costs and making it easier to grow certain kinds of crops.(Reporting by David Ljunggren; editing by Peter Galloway)

Flood-ravaged Philippines braces for new typhoon
AFPAFP – SEPT 29,11


The death toll from a typhoon that pummelled the Philippines climbed to 43 as authorities warned another storm was set to strike and endanger nearly a million people enduring horror floods.Typhoon Nesat dumped enormous amounts of rain across the main island of Luzon on Tuesday and huge tracts of farming lands remain under water.The government said nearly a million people had been affected by the flooding, and that another typhoon was forecast to dump more rain across Luzon from Saturday.
Our problem is the floodwaters have yet to be flushed out to sea and rains dumped on nearby mountains are still on their way down to the plains, Science Undersecretary Graciano Yumul said on ABS-CBN television on Friday.Then Nalgae strikes it will suck the wet southwest monsoons into these same areas and any fresh rains are bound to worsen the flooding.The government's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said the death toll from Nesat had risen to 43, up from 39 late Thursday as disaster reports trickled in from isolated areas.Thirty other people remain missing, mostly poor fishermen who went to sea in small outriggers ahead of Nesat, it said.

Strong quake rocks northeast Japan
AP – SEPT 29,11


TOKYO (AP) — A strong earthquake has rocked northeastern Japan, which is still recovering from the devastating tsunami six months ago.The quake Thursday had a preliminary magnitude of 5.6. There were no immediate reports of damage and no tsunami warning was issued.The earthquake was centered off Fukushima, which was severely hit by the quake and tsunami in March that left more than 21,000 people dead or missing. Fukushima is about 150 miles (240 kilometers) northeast of Tokyo.
The March disaster touched off the worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl, generating meltdowns, fires and explosions at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear facility.The plant's operator said there were no signs of abnormalities at the plant from the quake on Thursday.

Europe again steps back from brink in debt crisis
ReutersBy Stephen Brown and Madeline Chambers | Reuters – SEPT 29,11


BERLIN (Reuters) - Following a now-familiar script, Europe again averted disaster in its debt crisis when German lawmakers rallied behind Chancellor Angela Merkel to approve a stronger euro zone bailout fund on Thursday.But bigger challenges loom for the euro zone now. Financial markets are already anticipating a likely Greek default and demanding more far-reaching measures to prevent the crisis that began in Athens from spreading far beyond Europe and its banks.The Bundestag (lower house) overwhelmingly approved new powers for the 440-billion-euro EFSF fund to make precautionary loans, help recapitalize banks and buy distressed countries' bonds in the secondary market.Despite a rebellion by 15 backbench Euroskeptics, Merkel won 315 votes from her own center-right coalition, enough to avoid the humiliation of having to rely on the opposition Social Democrats and Greens to pass the plan.The result of the vote is a strong signal for Europe. The broad majority in parliament clearly shows that Germany is committed to the euro and to protecting our currency, said Hermann Groehe, general secretary of her Christian Democratic party.The measure was part of a July 21 agreement by euro zone leaders meant to solve the crisis by providing a second bailout for debt-stricken Greece, partly funded by private sector bondholders, and providing more firepower to prevent contagion engulfing bigger EU economies Spain and Italy.

But that deal failed to stop Italian and Spanish borrowing costs soaring, forcing the European Central Bank to intervene in August to buy their bonds, and may yet unravel in Greece, which has fallen behind again on its deficit reduction targets, pushing it closer to default.There is a growing realization, even among the more reticent, that the July 21 package is yesterday's war, and we need to go further, a senior EU official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.The euro and European shares ticked up and safe-haven German bonds fell after the closely-watched vote in Europe's pivotal power, where public opposition to further bailouts is rife.But analysts said financial markets and outside powers still want a more comprehensive response from European Union policymakers to the debt crisis.U.S. President Barack Obama kept up a drum beat of criticism of the EU's crisis management, saying on Wednesday: "In Europe, we haven't seen them deal with their financial system and banking system as effectively as they need to.EU officials are already working on ways of leveraging up the rescue fund, but kept those legally and politically fraught options under wraps ahead of the German vote to avoid antagonizing waverers in the Bundestag.Underscoring the sensitivity, German Economy Minister Philipp Roesler, leader of the liberal Free Democrats, junior partners in Merkel's coalition, said on a visit to Brussels after the vote that Berlin does not want to leverage the bailout fund.The European Commission welcomed German approval of the EFSF boost and said it was confident the ratification process would be complete throughout the 17-nation currency area by mid-October.Elsewhere in Europe, there was a sense of relief. French President Nicolas Sarkozy telephoned Merkel to congratulate her and invited Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou to talks in Paris on Friday to discuss Greece's precarious debt situation. Papandreou met Merkel in Berlin on Tuesday.Cyprus also back the EFSF's new powers on Thursday, taking the number of states that have approved to 12. Of the remainder only Slovakia's endorsement looks politically tricky.

PAIN IN SPAIN, ITALY

Despite the German vote, developments in Spain and Italy highlighted the stark challenges still facing the euro zone in coping with the sovereign debt crisis.
Spain's ruling Socialists abruptly shelved plans to boost public coffers by selling part of the state lottery for up to 9 billion euros ($12 billion), in the face of tough market conditions, political opposition and banks' funding concerns.The backtracking, a day before book building was supposed to begin on the public offering of 30 percent of Loterias, was a blow a few weeks before a November 20 election, which opinion polls show the center-right People's Party sweeping.Banks involved in the sale, Santander and BBVA, saw the Loterias flotation as a direct rival to their efforts to bolster their capital by enticing Spaniards to withdraw deposits to invest in lottery shares.Italy meanwhile had to pay the highest yield on a 10-year bond since the introduction of the euro in 1999 at an auction on Thursday, the first long-term sale since Standard & Poor's cut the country's sovereign credit rating.Rome's funding costs remain under pressure despite ECB bond-buying and a pick-up in risk appetite due to expectations of a stronger euro rescue fund. Analysts say the government's tentative crisis response has harmed investor confidence.Italy sold 7.86 billion euros of long-term bonds, moving closer to an overall issuance target of 430 billion euros for the year, but the 10-year yield rose to 5.86 percent at the auction, up from 5.22 percent a month ago.That's eye-watering yield levels, said David Schnautz, a rate strategist at Commerzbank.In Athens, senior officials of the troika of European Commission, ECB and International Monetary Fund resumed talks aimed at checking that Greece has met the terms of its bailout program after adopting new austerity measures. The Greek Finance Ministry called the climate positive and creative.The government will run out of money to pay salaries and pensions in October unless it receives the next 8 billion euro installment of emergency loans. It pushed an unpopular new property tax through parliament this week despite public anger.Anti-austerity protesters blocked the entrances to several ministries before the start of the talks.Around 200 finance ministry employees gathered in front of their ministry, shouting: Take your bailout and leave.The occupations are carried out today when the troika returns to our country and as we face new barbaric measures which were decided and are being decided for further wage reductions ... new tax hikes and mass layoffs, public sector ADEDY said in a statement.(Additional reporting by Erik Kirschbaum in Berlin, Alexandria Sage in Paris, Elizabeth O'Leary and Judy MacInnes in Madrid, Valentina Za in Milan, Ingrid Melander in Athens; editing by Ron Askew; Writing by Paul Taylor; editing by Janet McBride)

Analysis: Bernanke leaves investors mulling QE3 odds ReutersBy Steven C. Johnson and Karen Brettell | Reuters – SEPT 29,11

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Ben Bernanke put markets on notice this week: Despite already having spent trillions of dollars to stimulate growth, the Federal Reserve would do more if inflation falls too far and the threat of deflation grows.Bond investors are taking the Fed chairman at his word. If things get worse, some predict the central bank will go beyond targeting interest rates and move straight to outright buying of mortgage securities, municipal debt and even stocks.When I think of the Fed I think everything is on the table until it isn't, said Eric Green, chief economist and head of interest rate strategy at TD Securities in New York.If the economy appears on the verge of deflation, the Fed will have to go very big and be very creative, and that means munis are on the table, mortgage-backed securities, corporate (bonds), equities, he said.Everything is possible because the Fed has broken new ground and they will continue to do so if they feel they have to, exit strategy be damned.The Fed has pushed short-term interest rates to record lows and last week announced it would attempt to push down long-term rates by selling $400 billion of short-dated Treasuries to buy an equal amount of debt with maturities of seven years and up, in a policy dubbed Operation Twist.This was designed to help the housing market by lowering long-term borrowing costs. It would also encourage investors to sell Treasuries for higher-yielding assets, which should boost stocks and corporate profits, encourage hiring and investment and provide a jolt to consumer sentiment and prices.

THEORY AND REALITY

That, at least, is the theory.But fear that the economy may already be in recession has been pushing down stocks, commodities and Treasury yields for several months. U.S. stocks <.SPX> are more than 10 percent weaker since the start of August.As a result, market expectations for U.S. inflation have retreated to levels last seen in September 2010, shortly before the Fed began a $600 billion bond buying program, the second installment of a policy known as quantitative easing, or QE.When asked about this after a speech on Thursday, Bernanke said, if inflation falls too low or inflation expectations fall too low, that would be something we would have to respond to because we do not want deflation.The expected rate of inflation over the next 10 years as measured by the gap between Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS) and cash government bonds fell as low as 1.70 percent last week. At 1.83 percent on Thursday, it was still below the Fed's unofficial inflation target around 2 percent.St. Louis Fed President James Bullard chimed in on Thursday, saying he was troubled by the decline in market inflation expectations. But he added that deflation was not yet a risk and that the bar to more Fed easing remained high.

That could change, though.If inflation stays very low, that's going to create a clear path for more forms of unconventional easing, said Jim Caron, head of interest rate strategy at Morgan Stanley. I don't know how much the market is paying attention to that. But I wouldn't count anything out.

TREASURY ALTERNATIVES

With interest rates already at record lows, Caron said a QE3 would likely target assets other than Treasuries.Mortgage debt is one candidate, and because the market is not as liquid as the government bond market, the Fed might have more success pushing investors into riskier assets.During QE2, households, one of the largest groups of Treasuries buyers, simply increased investments in other low-risk debt such as agencies, municipal and corporate bonds when the Fed started buying Treasuries.The point would be to force (investors) into other risk assets knowing that the Bernanke put is no longer imagined, it's actually in place, Green said.If the Fed is buying equities, it wants to create more favorable conditions, which means stronger risk assets, tighter credit spreads and lower rates.

MISLEADING SIGNALS?

Even as the risks rise, the Fed will have to tread carefully. Data showed core consumer prices, which remove energy and food costs, rose at a 2 percent rate in the 12 months to September, near the top of the Fed's comfort zone.That seems to clash with signals from the TIPS market, but some say those signals may be misleading.
Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser, one of three central bank officials to vote against Operation Twist, said Thursday that Europe's debt crisis has increased the safe-haven appeal of U.S. government debt, with falling yields narrowing the spread between cash bonds and TIPS.One of the driving factors that led the Fed to embark on QE2 was indeed concern about deflation risk, said Michael Pond, Treasury and inflation-linked strategist at Barclay's Capital.But this time, he added,if the Fed only looks (at TIPS), they would likely be misguided here in thinking the market is pricing in disinflation.(Editing by Burton Frierson and Dan Grebler)

Asia stocks muted after mixed US economic data
APBy PAMELA SAMPSON - AP Business Writer | AP – SEPT 30,11


BANGKOK (AP) — Asian stocks were mixed Friday following a choppy session on Wall Street as investors struggled to make sense of conflicting reports on the health of the U.S. economy.Japan's Nikkei 225 index rose 0.3 percent to 8,723.12. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 index fell 0.5 percent to 3,990.10. Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 1.7 percent to 17,711.95 and South Korea's Kospi dipped 0.6 percent to 1,759.60.
Benchmarks in mainland China, Taiwan, Malaysia, New Zealand and the Philippines were higher, while Singapore's fell.In New York on Thursday, the Dow Jones industrial average ended higher after data showed first-time applications for unemployment benefits fell to a five-month low. The U.S. government also raised its estimate of economic growth in the April-June period.But other economic reports were weak. A trade group reported that chief executives of the nation's largest companies are more pessimistic than they were just three months ago. Also, fewer Americans signed contracts to buy homes in August, the second straight month of declines.The Dow Jones industrial average rose 1.3 percent to close at 11,153.98 after a day of big swings. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 0.8 percent to 1,160.40. The Nasdaq composite index lost 0.4 percent to 2,480.76.In Europe on Thursday, stocks surged after Germany passed a measure to expand the powers of a regional bailout fund.

The measure, which must be approved by all 17 countries that use the euro, will allow the bailout fund to buy government debt and lend money to troubled European countries. Finland approved the measure Wednesday.Oil rebounded following the news out of the U.S. and Europe. Benchmark oil for November delivery was up 56 cents to $82.72 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose 93 cents to finish at $82.14 per barrel on the Nymex on Thursday.In currency trading, the euro slipped to $1.3557 from $1.3591 late Thursday in New York. The dollar weakened to 76.51 yen from 76.79 yen.

Facebook under pressure over privacy: source
By Stephen Mangan | Reuters – SEPT 30,11


LONDON (Reuters) - Facebook faces regulatory scrutiny in Ireland, site of its European headquarters, over its handling of personal information, the Financial Times reported on Friday.The newspaper said the Irish data protection commissioner is to conduct a privacy audit of Facebook's activities outside the United States and Canada after complaints by European and U.S. privacy campaigning groups to the Irish commissioner and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.The groups raised concerns over Facebook's frictionless sharing of reading, listening and viewing activity as well as the use of cookies to track users' browsing.The FT reported that Gary Davis, Irish deputy data protection commissioner, said his office would conduct a detailed audit of the group's activities outside the United States and Canada next month.
This audit will examine the subject matter of the complaint but also will be more extensive and will seek to examine Facebook's compliance more generally with Irish data protection law.Facebook's European headquarters are in Dublin, which makes its operations outside the United States and Canada subject to Irish and European data protection legislation.Facebook was unavailable for immediate comment.(Reporting by Stephen Mangan; Editing by Gary Hill)

Merkel coalition easily passes EU rescue-fund vote
29.09.11 @ 15:34 By Leigh Phillips


In a major domestic victory German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the Bundestag - the country’s lower house of parliament - has robustly backed a strengthening of the eurozone’s multi-billion euro rescue fund.The Bundestag: A night of arm-twisting of rebels assured the passage of the draft law (Photo: Torkil SĆørensen/norden.org)
With Merkel’s free-market-liberal coalition allies in the Free Democrats increasingly taking a critical line on Europe and its series of bail-outs for peripheral states, fears were widespread ahead of the vote that the chancellor might not be able to win enough votes within her own coalition to push through the changes to the European Financial Stability Fund without the indignity of having to rely on the opposition Social Democrats and Greens.However, after heavy late-night arm-twisting of rebels, the legislation was approved 523 to 85, with three abstentions. A full 315 members of the governing coalition voted in favour, four more than the 311 needed to win without depending on help from the centre-left.

Just 15 members of the coalition voted against the government.The FDP is battling a massive plunge in popular support, with some polls putting the party on just two percent - far beneath the five percent required to enter parliament. If an election were to be held today, it is likely that the party would be wiped out.Many in the party argue that Germany has already contributed more than enough to European rescues of peripheral countries and that Greece in particular should be left to deal with its alleged profligate ways on its own.Die Linke, the left-wing party, made up the bulk of the 85 dissenters. The group, like many in the FDP, is opposed to the EU-IMF bail-out packages, but for very different reasons, arguing that the rescues are not of peripheral states, but of banks of the core EU countries and that the austerity that comes attached to the rescues hits ordinary people.The chancellor can now breathe a sigh of relief for her own position. A reliance on opposition votes would likely have spelt the end of the governing coalition.Today we will make an important contribution to our nation, to Europe and to the stability of the euro, coalition parliamentary leader Volker Kauder said after the vote.The approval gives the green light from Europe’s biggest economy for the EFSF to purchase government bonds in secondary markets and to participate in bank recapitalisation actions.

The changes to the rescue fund also crucially hike Germany’s contribution to €211 billion, up from €123 billion.Coalition members were also worried that even as the latest expansion of the EFSF, European officials were quietly at work on a still larger rescue operation amounting to as much as €2 trillion.EU officials and core-nation domestic sources have confirmed that various options on a leveraging of the EFSF are under consideration.German finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble lashed out at suggestions that such a plan was underway.Nothing is being kept secret or being kept quiet, he said during the debate in the Bundestag.He emphasised that today’s vote is only about the new sums and the new powers of the EFSF and nothing else.So every suspicion and every uncertainty is indecent and inappropriate, he said.
However, the minister appeared to leave the door open to adjustments to the bail-out fund, saying: The guidelines on the enlarged EFSF have not been finally negotiated.He continued that the parliament would have to approve these guidelines indicating that this will allow MPs to see what framework is being negotiated.The changes to the EFSF must be approved by all 17 eurozone states. A total of nine so far have done so, including Finland on Wednesday.

Slovakia remains a potential hurdle, with one of the four coalition parties in the government, the libertarian Freedom and Solidarity party, having been steadfastly opposed to the bail-out mechanism.However, late on Wednesday, the party’s parliamentary leader, Jozef Kollar, indicated to TV Markiza that the party is close to an agreement with the other parties on giving its assent.Kollar said that the condition the party is attaching to its backing is that Slovakia would not have to contribute to the fund.Prime Minister Iveta Radicova is pushing for a vote before the autumn EU summit, meaning 16 October at the latest.

Banks to pay fair share under EU transactions tax
Today SEPT 29,11 @ 09:28 By Leigh Phillips


The European Commission on Wednesday (28 September) unveiled plans to slap a tax on financial transactions in the EU, a scheme that the EU executive hope will raise some €57 billion a year in revenues.Banks must be made to pay their fair share the commission says (Photo: Trois TĆŖtes)Jose Manuel Barroso, the president of the commission announced that the college of commissioners had adopted the proposal, long expected and dreaded by the City of London, during his state of the union address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg.All financial transactions in which at least one party is located in the EU would come under the purview of the proposed rules. The commission would like to see both derivative contracts and trades in shares and bonds taxed at 0.1 percent from January 2014.Brussels said that now, when governments are putting the squeeze on public services in order to unwind heavy public debtloads, was the time to introduce such a measure to ensure that the financial sector makes a fair contribution.Public debt in all 27 EU member states jumped from below 60 percent of GDP to 80 percent at the beginning of the crisis, largely as a result of the financial sector receiving €4.6 trillion in assistance from governments.The commission also said in a statement outlining the proposals that banking world is currently under-taxed by comparison to other sectors.The aim is also to establish new minimum tax rates and harmonise different existing taxes on financial transactions in the EU, aiming to reduce distortions in the bloc’s single market.

Our project is sound and workable. I have no doubt this tax can deliver what EU citizens expect; a fair contribution from the financial sector, said tax commissioner Algirdas Semeta upon the announcement of the proposal.The move would aim to capture a slice of 85 percent of transactions between financial institutions, but citizens themselves and non-financial-sector businesses would exempt. Mortgages, bank loans, insurance contracts and other financial activities carried out by individuals or small businesses fall outside the scope of the proposal, the commission said.The plans have strong support from French President and current chair of the G20 Nicolas Sarkozy, who is likely to raise the EU plan at the next meeting of the world’s leading economies in Cannes on 3 November.Germany, Spain, Finland, Luxembourg, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Greece and Portugal are also believed to be committed backers of the move at an EU level.However the UK, home to the City of London financial district, is implacably opposed and has suggested that it will veto the move.Britain says it is not opposed in principle, but that it must be imposed at a global level, otherwise banks will simply move out of the EU to more amenable tax climates.The government will continue to engage with its international partners on financial transaction taxes and has no objection to them in principle, said the British treasury. But any financial transaction tax would have to apply globally and there are a number of practical issues that need to be worked through. These issues are underlined by the commission's own analysis.Oxfam, the anti-poverty organisation that has long campaigned for such a Robin Hood Tax, welcomed the proposals, but said that the funds must be used not merely to shore up EU budgets, but distributed to help poor countries facing chilling reductions in aid, trade, and investment.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — U.S. accusations that Pakistan is supporting Afghan insurgents have triggered a nationalist backlash and whipped up media fears of an American invasion, drowning out any discussion over the army's long use of jihadi groups as deadly proxies in the region.The reaction shows the problem facing the United States as it presses Pakistan for action: Strong statements in Washington provoke a negative public response that makes it more difficult for the army to act against the militants — even if it decided it was in the country's interest to do so.Pakistan's mostly conservative populace is deeply suspicious of U.S. intentions a decade after Washington forged an alliance with Islamabad. Many people here believe the U.S. wants to break up Pakistan and take its arsenal of nuclear weapons, and America is very unpopular throughout the country.By contrast, Pakistanis lack unity against Islamic militants. Politicians and media commentators are often ambiguous in their criticism of the Pakistani Taliban, despite its carrying out near weekly bombings in Pakistan over the past four years.One small private television channel has aired an advertisement that features images of Adm. Mike Mullen, America's top military officer, and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta along with scenes of the Pakistani army fighting and raising the country's flag.Each time the Americans appear, a shrill voice sings: Enemies, you have challenged a nation which has a growing knowledge of the Quran and the support from Allah. Our task in this world is to eliminate the name of the killers! Mullen's comments on Capitol Hill last week set off the storm.

He said the Haqqani network, the most deadly and organized force fighting American troops in Afghanistan, was a veritable arm of Pakistan's premier spy agency, the strongest public statement yet by U.S. officials on Pakistan's long suspected duplicity.He and other U.S. officials suggested that the U.S. would use any means necessary to defend itself. That raised speculation here that America might deploy troops in Pakistan's North Waziristan territory, the Afghan border region where the Haqqanis are based.Most analysts view that scenario as highly unlikely because of the risks it entails for U.S. interests in the region. But it has not stopped right-wing politicians and retired generals that are well represented on TV talk shows from speculating on the threat of American boots on Pakistani soil.On Thursday, the leaders of the country's feuding political parties will put aside their differences to sit under one roof to discuss the issue. In announcing the meeting, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said the lawmakers will discuss the security situation in the wake of threats emanating from outside the country.The Sunni Ittehad Council, an organization representing the country's Barelvi sect, often referred to as the most moderate among Pakistani Muslims, issued a statement saying it was obligatory on all Muslims to wage jihad against the United States if it attacked Pakistan.The Pakistani government and the armed forces should start preparing to counter any possible American attack as Islamic law suggests keeping the horses ready' to counter any sort of foreign aggression, the statement said.
There have been a few small street protests since Mullen's comments, but nothing major.

In some respects, the situation mirrors the atmosphere after the May 2 American helicopter raid on Osama bin Laden, which was carried out without the knowledge of the Pakistani army. There was outrage then over the infringement of the country's sovereignty by the U.S., but little on how bin Laden had been living in the army town of Abbottabad for so long.Now, the focus is on Pakistan's public humiliation at the hands of a supposed ally — and the threat of American action.There appears to have been little debate on whether Pakistan is right to allow the Haqqani network free reign in parts of the country. Nor has there been much discussion of Pakistan's historical use of militant proxies in India. This is all the more striking because the Haqqani network and other militants are allied, at least ideologically, to the Pakistani Taliban, who carry out attacks inside Pakistan.The dominant right-wing narrative in Pakistan following Mullen's comments has been that the United States is losing the war in Afghanistan and wants to pin the blame on Islamabad. The threat posed by the Haqqani network is seen as exaggerated, and tackling them now is thought not to be in Pakistan's interest.The anger this week at America coincided with the visit of Chinese Public Security Minister Meng Jianzhu, allowing the media and politicians to peddle another populist trope: that Beijing will be able to replace the United States as a source of funds if and when Pakistan chooses to sever its ties with Washington.American allegations and threats have extremely endangered our country's security and sovereignty. It is high time ... we should consult our friendly neighbors and other countries out of this region and get their support, said an editorial in the right-wing mass circulation paper, Nawa-i-Waqt.Most analysts say this hope is misplaced, noting that Beijing shares international concerns about Pakistan as a breeding ground for terrorism and has shown little sign it wants to prop up the government. The hope also fails to address how China would replace American influence on institutions like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund.Anti-American sentiment in Pakistan was already rife and growing, following the shooting deaths of two Pakistanis by CIA operatives in Lahore in January and the raid on bin Laden. Both events were portrayed here as further evidence of the malign intentions of the United States.

The Pakistani media tend to focus on the supposed American threat because that's what Pakistanis want to read and hear about, said Cyril Almedia, a liberal political analyst and columnist. But he said there were signs that those who wanted to see the alliance with the United States break down may be disappointed, noting that the army — which receives billions from the United States in aid — had been relatively muted in its reaction.Emotions are running high, but there are indications the military is performing a delicate balancing act, Almedia said.On the one hand, it is trying to give a response that satisfies a paranoid, conservative population and the rank-and-file, yet also a feeling that this is not the moment to cause a complete rupture with the United States.(This version corrects Panetta now defense secretary, no longer CIA head.)
