Netanyahu Warns of Syria Attack Over Chemical Weapons

Netanyahu: Israel will not hesitate to attack in Syria if it feels chemical weapons will end up in the hands of Hizbullah.By Elad Benari First Publish: 10/17/2012, 4:15 AM

Prime Minister Netanyahu addresses EU diplomats-Reuters

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu warned on Tuesday that Israel would not hesitate to launch a military operation in Syria if it feels that there is a threat that the country’s stockpile of chemical weapons will end up in the hands of terrorist organizations such as Hizbullah.“Israel will consider a military operation if it feels there is a fear that chemical weapons will leak to terrorist groups like Hizbullah," Netanyahu said during his meeting with European Union diplomats in Jerusalem.He added that “Hizbullah is actively engaged in the massacre of the Syrian people." Netanyahu also referred to the support that President Bashar Al-Assad's regime receives from Iran, saying that “without Iran - Assad would survive.”Syria has admitted it has chemical weapons and has threatened to use them if attacked by external forces. It claimed it will not use these weapons on rebels fighting to oust Assad.Recent reports from Syria indicated that Assad has transferred a battery of advanced missiles to the al-Masna border crossing, which is the central route used to transfer equipment and weapons to Hizbullah. Members of the Syrian opposition said that one of two major chemical arsenals of the Syrian regime is located near that border crossing.U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta recently indicated that the Syrian regime has moved some chemical weapons to safeguard the material as it wages war against rebel forces but the main storage sites for its arsenal remain secure.French President Francois Hollande recently warned that the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian regime would provide a legitimate cause for a foreign intervention.In his meeting with EU representatives, Netanyahu referred to the peace agreement with Egypt and expressed his opposition to any future change in the wording of the agreement."Any change may lead to the cancellation of the peace treaty," said the prime minister and expressed the hope that the new regime in Egypt will work harder to prevent terrorist attacks in the Sinai Peninsula.

Euro-tsar to have veto powers on national budgets, Schaeuble says

Today @ 09:26 OCT 17,12 By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - The EU should have its own "currency commissioner," according to an ambitious new plan set out by German finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble.Under Schaeuble's plan, which would include further changes to the EU treaties, a new European commissioner responsible for economic and currency affairs would need to sign off on national budgets before they could be implemented by governments.Outlining the proposals to journalists on his flight returning to Berlin from the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank in Tokyo on Tuesday (16 October), Germany's finance minister said that his leader, Angela Merkel, was fully behind him."When I put forward such proposals, you can take it as a given that the chancellor agrees," he said.Schaeuble also wants the currency commissioner to have similar status to the competition commissioner, who has a mandate to make decisions on EU competition policy without the agreement of the rest of the college of commissioners, arguing that this independence would "depoliticise" the role and improve decision making.It would also create two tiers of MEP within the European Parliament, with decisions relating to the eurozone being made only by MEPs from countries using the euro.The question of creating a special committee for the eurozone has support from some MEPs, and was suggested by the likes of Pervenche Beres, the French centre-left chairwoman of the employment committee, in 2011, but is widely seen as a divisive step by deputies.The plans would built on the six legislative files on economic governance agreed by the 17 eurozone countries in 2011 and came into force in January.They are now required to present national budgets to the commission to show how they intend to meet debt and deficit reduction targets.However, while the commission has the power to ask for additional tax rises or spending cuts to meet budget targets and to impose fines on countries which fail to deliver, it does not have formal veto powers.Schaeuble's salvo is the latest sign that Germany is prepared to deepen fiscal and political integration and builds on proposals already agreed by Merkel's governing Christian Democrat party (CDU).However, with Merkel finding it increasingly tough to force measures relaxing the terms of bailout conditions and increasing the firepower of the EU rescue fund, the ESM, through the Bundestag, her government is only offering the carrot of deeper European integration in exchange for strict supervision powers at EU level.
Schaeuble's suggestions come as EU leaders prepare for Thursday's summit in Brussels.Alongside discussions on the commission proposals to establish the European Central Bank as the single supervisor of the eurozone's banking sector, politicians are also expected to focus on Spain's solvency.Despite informally requesting up to €100 billion to support its private banks, Spain is widely expected to request a formal bailout before the end of 2012.Leaders will also discuss European Council President Herman Van Rompuy's "ideas paper" which was sent to national capitals last week.The Van Rompuy paper also raised the possibility of having a finance minister for the eurozone, as well as a special budget, alongside the prospect of establishing new EU-level instruments to ease debt financing.The mooted instruments include short-term eurobills and a "debt redemption fund" first proposed by a German advisory panel of economic experts.

Google privacy policy breaks law, EU data chiefs say

16.10.12 @ 20:22 By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - Search-engine Google has been ordered to re-write its data collection rules after EU regulators found that they were in breach of EU data protection laws.A letter to Google CEO Larry Page signed by 24 of the EU's 27 national data protection regulators said that the software-giant had "not demonstrated that your company endorses the key data protection principles of purpose limitation, data quality, data minimisation, proportionality and right to object."The regulators, who collectively make up the Article 29 working party on data protection, also spelt out a 12-point plan for Google to comply with EU law on data protection and retention as well as the e-privacy directive.These include requirements to get explicit consent from users to use and combine their data and create a simple opt-out mechanism for users. Google should also publish how it uses and processes personal data. However, they have steered clear of accusing the software-giant of intentionally breaking the law and of possible fines or other sanctions.
The report concludes a long-running investigation into Google's practices led by French data regulator CNIL starting in March over the ways that Google collects personal data.Google changed its data collection practices in March after warning customers using its Gmail and Google+ network of the change. It had claimed that the new Privacy Policy, which allows the company to collect and combine data from any of its services, enabled it to improve the accuracy of its search results and targeted adverts and was not in breach of European law.Following the announcement, Auke Haagsma, director of ICOMP, a group of software companies including Microsoft that campaigns against Google's dominant market status, told this website that the "unprecedented action by close to 30 privacy enforcement agencies all over Europe shows the severity of Google’s violations.”“Google wants us to believe that enforcing the privacy laws will end the Internet as we know it, but the opposite is true. It is only if users’ trust that their personal data will not be collected and used against their wishes, that they feel confident enough to use all the important possibilities that the internet offers,” he said.MEPs also lined up to launch broadsides against Google with MEPs Angelika Niebler and Philippe Juvin, who chair the centre-right EPP's working group on Internet policy, commenting that "Google must change its standards and raise them."For his part, Belgian centre-left MEP Marc Tarabella, said that it was "unacceptable that European consumers are not clearly aware of what Google does with data inputted by them in good faith into the search engine."Monique Goyens, director general of the European Consumer Organisation (BEUC), said that the investigation confirmed "our concerns that Google's privacy policy sits on the wrong side of EU data protection rules".Google said it needs time to come with full response."We have received the report and are reviewing it now," said Peter Fleischer, Google's global privacy counsel.
"Our new privacy policy demonstrates our long-standing commitment to protecting our users' information and creating great products. We are confident that our privacy notices respect European law."The ruling comes as the European Parliament prepares to enter negotiations on plans to overhaul EU data protection rules.The reforms published by the European Commission in January include steps to increase people's control over their personal data, giving them the right to remove their data from company lists. It also tightens the rules on how companies can use data.

Netanyahu may seek to legalize West Bank outposts

PM reportedly mulling adoption of controversial Levy Report; opposition MKs call it ‘electioneering’

By Gabe Fisher and Mitch Ginsburg October 17, 2012, 10:16 am 4 - THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking to implement sections of the Levy Report, which recommends the legalization of unauthorized Jewish settlements in the West Bank and declares Israel’s presence in the territory legal by international law, Israel Radio reported on Wednesday.The report on the settlements, written at Netanyahu’s behest and named for retired Supreme Court justice Edmund Levy, who led the three-person panel of experts that wrote it, was released in early July. It recommends easing restrictions on Jewish settlement in the West Bank by regulating zoning and planning, halting scheduled demolitions and planning building in accordance with population growth.The report also concludes that the establishment of settlements in the West Bank does not breach international law, and that Jews can legally make their homes there, because “Israel does not meet the criteria of ‘military occupation’ as defined under international law.”“A belligerent occupation is between two sovereigns,” panel member Alan Baker, a former Israeli Ambassador to Canada and a legal adviser to the Foreign Ministry, told The Times of Israel in a phone interview. “We could not accept the definition that this is a classic occupation. That is the novelty of this report.”In the report, Levy, Baker and retired justice Techiya Shapira wrote that ever since the 1917 Balfour Declaration, no sovereign state had formally annexed the West Bank territory and that, consequently, the Geneva Convention was not applicable.According to Wednesday’s report, Netanyahu and his staff have been preparing a draft resolution that would implement much of the Levy Report’s conclusions, while seeking to avoid the international and legal fallout of such a move.When the report was first released, it was roundly condemned by the Israeli left, and rejected by international allies such as the US.On Wednesday morning, opposition parliamentarians were quick to condemn the prime minister.Labor Party leader Shelly Yachimovich termed the decision “a transparent election ploy,” while Shaul Mofaz, the leader of the opposition Kadima party, said he would contact Israel’s attorney-general and request that he look into the legality of the initiative.Kadima MK Israel Hasson likened the proposal to “a flamethrower on a barrel of gasoline,” saying the Palestinians feel they have no political future and that the situation is very volatile. He said the government was attempting to prevent the future creation of a Palestinian state.Coming out in defense of the initiative, Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz of Netanyahu’s Likud party told Israel Radio that the prime minister did not intend to push for an extension of official Israeli sovereignty over West Bank settlements. Netanyahu’s purpose, he said, was merely to “settle some issues” and improve the daily lives of Jewish residentsof the West Bank.

Israel might intervene to prevent Syria’s chemical weapons from falling into wrong hands, PM says

Erdoğan holds surprise meeting with Ahmadinejad to ‘bridge differences’ over Assad crisis

By Michal Shmulovich October 17, 2012, 12:16 am 2 - THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

Israel would consider a military option against Syria to ensure that the country’s chemical weapons do not reach the hands of extremists, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday.“Israel will do everything it takes to ensure Syria’s chemical weapons do not fall into the hands of terrorist organizations — and if such a situation arises, then Israel will weigh a military option,” Netanyahu told a group of European ambassadors in Jerusalem.The prime minister also noted that Iran and Hezbollah have assisted Syrian President Bashar Assad in his 19-month crackdown against opposition groups.The growing fear is that extremist fighters and other groups may get their hands on Syria’s vast chemical and biological weapons stockpiles if Assad falls. The threat of the weaponry falling into rebel hands has grown as the uprising has intensified in recent months, particularly after four members of Assad’s inner circle were killed in a Damascus suicide bombing in July. The US also reportedly recently sent a secret military task force to Jordan to prepare for possible scenarios in which the stockpiles get loose.Also on Tuesday, Turkey’s Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan held surprise talks in Azerbaijan with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on the Syrian uprising, Today’s Zaman reported. The meeting came amid the countries’ growing discord over how to grapple with the escalating Syrian conflict.In an effort to end the bloodshed in Syria, the two leaders agreed to form new lines of communication and dialogue between their foreign ministries.“We have agreed to bolster communication at the level of the foreign ministries to bridge differences over the unfolding Syrian conflict. The constant deliberation and communication would help to reduce differences,” Erdoğan said in a press conference after returning from Baku late on Tuesday, the Turkish paper added.

Morsi Adviser Calls to Change Israel Peace Treaty

Egyptian presidential adviser Mohammed Ismat Seif Al-Dawla has called to urgently change the peace treaty signed in 1979 with Israel.By Chana Ya'ar First Publish: 10/17/2012, 9:57 AM

Egyptian natural gas pipeline hit by RPG in Sinai-Reuters

Egyptian presidential adviser Mohammed Ismat Seif Al-Dawla has called to urgently change the peace treaty signed in 1979 with Israel.Al-Dawla, an aide to President Mohammed Morsi, issued the call during a speech he delivered Monday at a conference on “Camp David and its Impact on Egypt's National Security.” The presidential adviser said that in its current form, the historic treaty maintains the national security of the “Zionist enemy” more than it helps Egypt's national security.The Cairo government aide claimed that amending the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel is important to help restore Egyptian control over the lawless Sinai Peninsula, where terrorists have established training and operational bases from which to carry out attacks against Israel -- and sometimes against Egyptian and Jordanian citizens and interests as well. The Egyptian natural gas pipeline has been attacked and natural gas supplies to both Jordan and Israel were disrupted due to terrorist sabotage from the Sinai no less than 15 times in a little over a year.Al-Dawla was quoted last month by the independent Dostor daily newspaper as saying he was soon present Morsi with a proposal to amend the 1979 treaty, based on “popular demand and a strategic and security need.”In response, a spokesman for the Egyptian president said there is currently no need to amend the peace treaty with Israel. Speaking from New York on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly at the time, spokesman Yasser Ali said Egypt has the troops it needs in the Sinai to restore security and will continue until success is achieved."With all due respect to all political and intellectual luminaries on the presidential advisory panel, only the president and his spokesman speak for the presidency,” Ali said, according to the state news agency MENA.A week prior, Al-Dawla had also told the el-Gareeda newspaper that Cairo gives Washington more than it receives, according to the Egypt State Information Service (Cairo). He was also quoted as saying that Egypt has never been an ally of the United States.The Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood, the movement which Egypt's President Mohammed Morsi belongs to, called last Thursday for a jihad (holy war) to liberate Jerusalem from Israeli rule. Although Morsi has repeatedly said he would respect international treaties previously signed by Cairo, there have been multiple calls from his own Muslim Brotherhood backers, and others in the country, to "revise" the accords.
  

Israel Asks UN to Send Humanitarian Boat to Syria, not Gaza

Israel tells the UN to try to convince pro-Arab activists not to sail to Gaza. "Activists should sail to Syria," says Prosor.By Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu First Publish: 10/17/2012, 9:10 AM

Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations Ron Prosor has asked the international organization to convince pro-Arab activists not to try to sail the “Estelle” boat to Gaza and try to break the maritime embargo onHamas. Syria is need of the aid, he added.The Swedish ship carrying activists is expected to reach Gaza by Saturday, but the IDF previously has stopped almost every attempt to break the blockade imposed to prevent terrorists and weapons from reaching Gaza.Prosor pointed out the campaign to bring humanitarian goods to Gaza by sea is redundant because “there is not a single civilian good that cannot enter Gaza." He said there is a true humanitarian crisis in Syria, where the ship should be headed, AFP reported.He noted, however, "They understand that it is much easier to face news cameras in Tel Aviv than bullets in Damascus."
"I call on the Secretary-General, the Security Council, and all responsible members of the international community to take immediate action to end this provocation," Prosor wrote to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and to the council's president for October, Guatemalan envoy Gert Rosenthal.
"I want to stress that Israel is not interested in confrontation, but remains determined to enforce its naval blockade of the Gaza Strip -- and will take all lawful actions to this end," Prosor wrote."Their clear provocation raises tensions and could easily spark a serious escalation of the conflict."There are 17 activists aboard the boat, including passengers from Canada, Israel, Norway, Sweden and the United States.
Two years ago, terror activists from the Turkish-based IHH organization clashed with Israeli Navy commandos who tried to stop their Mavi Mamara boat and five other ships from reaching Gaza.Three dozen IHH passengers viciously clubbed the commandoes as they boarded the boat by rope from a hovering helicopter. Three of the commandos were temporarily kidnapped until the Navy soldiers were able to overcome the attackers, nine of whom were killed in the ensuing clash.

Israel: Gaza militants fired anti-aircraft missile

By JOSEF FEDERMAN | Associated Press – 17 hrs ago OCT 17,12

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli defense officials say that Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip have for the first time fired an anti-aircraft missile at Israeli aircraft.The officials say the militants fired the Strela shoulder-fired missile at an Israeli helicopter operating over Gaza last week, but missed their target.
The officials, speaking under condition of anonymity because they were discussing a military operation, said Israeli intelligence has long believed that Gaza militants possessed these weapons, but this was the first time they were fired. They said the air force has taken special precautions for several years assuming the threat existed.Israel believes the weapons originated in Libya and were smuggled through tunnels along the Egyptian border.Palestinian militant groups have never acknowledged possessing the weapons.

Russia's Putin sacks member of Medvedev's cabinet

By Gleb Bryanski | Reuters – 44 mins ago OCT 17,12

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin sacked a member of Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev's cabinet on Wednesday after five months in office, asserting his authority over a government some analysts predict will be short-lived.Putin signed a decree dismissing Regional Development Minister Oleg Govorun, one of two ministers he had publicly criticized last month, and replacing him with Igor Slyunyayev, a former governor of Kostroma region northeast of Moscow.The Kremlin has dismissed suggestions that Putin was unhappy with the government, but his criticism of the two ministers added to speculation that he could dismiss Medvedev's cabinet, particularly if economic conditions worsen.
It was the first change in the cabinet Putin unveiled two weeks after his May 7 inauguration to a new presidential term after consultations with Medvedev, the protege who served as president during Putin's four-year stint as prime minister.The decree gave no reason for the dismissal and Putin made no mention of Govorun in a meeting with Slyunyayev.He told Slyunyayev he had been recommended by Medvedev, in line with protocol, but the move emphasized that Putin holds ultimate authority.Russia's paramount leader since his initial 2000-2008 presidency, Putin has sometimes used sackings to keep subordinates in line and maintain balance between rival Kremlin factions.Putin had singled out Govorun and the labor minister for criticism at a budget meeting a month ago. He suggested they had failed to implement decrees he issued upon taking office and urged Medvedev, who was not present, to reprimand them.He also said the cabinet's draft three-year spending plan had failed to cover his commitments.Analysts had said after the meeting that Putin was laying the groundwork for the potential dismissal of the government, especially if economic conditions worsened.Putin told the new minister to pay particular attention to moving Russians out of the dangerously decrepit housing that is a common cause of complaint in far-flung regions, where Putin draws strong support as city-dwellers tire of his 12-year rule.The Regional Development Ministry oversees housing and utility development programs in the regions, seen as crucial to securing popular loyalty in the course of Putin's six-year term."There are many tasks ahead of the ministry but one I would like you to pay a particular attention to: resettlement of people living in decrepit houses in hazardous condition," Putin told Slyunyayev at their meeting shown on state TV.Locals in the regions say living standards are low and utility rates too high, complaints analysts say Putin, who took office following the largest opposition protests of his rule, may be forced to hear more of in the future.Sources have also said Govorun, 42, had a difficult relationship with his deputy, St. Petersburg businessman Vladimir Kogan, Putin's friend from his time as deputy mayor of Russia's second-largest city and a member of his inner circle.(Editing by Steve Gutterman and Diana Abdallah)

Iran claims 'dozens' of its drones reached Israel

By ALI AKBAR DAREINI | Associated Press – 18 hrs ago OCT 17,12

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — A senior Iranian military official claimed Tuesday that Iranian-made surveillance drones have made dozens of apparently undetected flights into Israeli airspace from Lebanon in recent years to probe air defenses and collect reconnaissance data. An Israeli official rejected the account.The Iranian official declined to give further details on the purported missions or the capabilities of the drones, including whether they were similar to the unmanned aircraft launched last week by Lebanon's Hezbollah and downed by Israeli warplanes. It also was impossible to independently verify the claims from the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to brief the media.The Iranian assertions appear to be part of the Islamic Republic's widening strategy to boast about military advances — including warships and longer-range drones — that Tehran says could reorder the balance of power in the region as the West and its allies boost pressure over Iran's nuclear ambitions. Iran's leaders also seek to portray Israel as vulnerable to Tehran and its proxies.But an Israeli security official rejected the Iranian claims, saying last week's interception of a drone was the first time such an infiltration had occurred. He said Israel spotted the unmanned aircraft well before it entered Israeli airspace, determined it was not "dangerous" and then shot it down over uninhabited desert according to plan. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because an Israeli military investigation is still under way.The Iranian official claimed drones made by the Islamic Republic have made "dozens of flights over Israel" since the summer 2006 war between Hezbollah and Israel. He said Israeli defenses had been unable to detect the surveillance craft."The one that was shot down last week was not the first and will not be the last to fly into Israeli airspace," the official said.Iran has often used its military moves to send messages to Israel and the U.S., which has key bases in Gulf Arab states such as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. Tehran last year sent warships into the Mediterranean Sea for the first time since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Last month, Iranian military leaders gave details of a new long-range drone and tested fired four anti-ship missiles just before U.S.-led naval drills in the Gulf.At the time, a senior Revolutionary Guard commander, Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, also warned that U.S. bases in the Gulf could face retaliatory strikes if Israel attacks Iran's nuclear sites.On Tuesday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Rahmin Mehmanparast described Iran's military developments, including drones and missiles capable of reaching Israel, as a safeguard against a possible Israeli attack on nuclear sites.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Natanyahu last month urged the international community to set a "red line" on Iran's uranium enrichment, which the West and its allies fear could lead to the development of atomic weapons. Iran says its nuclear efforts are only for energy and research."Basically, the possibility of a war breaking out increases when countries don't have the might to defend themselves. But when countries are powerful ... the possibility of aggression decreases," Mehmanparast told reporters.A member of the Iranian parliament, Abbas Ali Mansouri, said the drone's flight also showed Hezbollah's growing battlefield capabilities as Tehran's main client militia. Hezbollah could take an even higher profile for Iran if Syrian rebels oust Bashar Assad's regime in Damascus, another critical ally for the Islamic Republic."It's crucial that Hezbollah is able to gather remarkable intelligence from inside Israel," he said.At the United Nations, Israeli Ambassador Ron Prosnor called Assad, Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a "trio of terror."The Hezbollah drone flight took place a month after Iran unveiled a new long-range unmanned aircraft, which has been described by military officials as a key strategic addition to Iran's military capabilities with the ability to carry out reconnaissance missions or be armed with "bombs and missiles."The Shahed-129, or Witness-129, has a range of 2,000 kilometers (1,250 miles) that can stay aloft for 24 hours, Iranian officials say.But it's unclear whether the new drone contains any elements of an U.S. RQ-170 Sentinel drone that went down in eastern Iran in December. Iran said it has recovered data from the American unmanned aircraft and claimed it was building its own replica.Iran frequently makes announcements about its strides in military technology, but it is virtually impossible to independently determine the actual capabilities or combat worthiness of the weapons Iran is producing.___Associated Press writer Josef Federman contributed to this report from Jerusalem.

Feds raid Massachusetts lab tied to meningitis outbreak

By Toni Clarke and Svea Herbst-Bayliss and Bill Berkrot | Reuters – 9 hrs ago OCT 17,12

BOSTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - Federal agents on Tuesday raided the Massachusetts pharmacy linked to a widespread meningitis outbreak that has killed 16 people and sickened more than 200 others, federal prosecutors said.Agents from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration searched the New England Compounding Center, or NECC, in the Boston suburb of Framingham, with officers from the local police department providing support, Framingham police said.The raid took place as calls came for an even wider probe into whether the once obscure pharmacy may have broken federal laws dealing with controlled substances, and as additional meningitis cases were announced.Carmen Ortiz, U.S. attorney for Massachusetts, said in a statement, "I can confirm that this office and our law enforcement partners are investigating allegations concerning the New England Compounding Center."Ortiz said it was "entirely premature" to speculate about what might be uncovered.A lawyer for NECC, said the raid was unnecessary and that "asking would have produced the same result.""It is difficult to understand the purpose of this search, since we have been clear that (NECC) would provide, and has provided, anything requested. We've been clear that warrants weren't needed," Paul Cirel, of the firm Collora LLP in Boston, said in a statement.
The entrance to NECC's headquarters - a squat, nondescript brown brick building - was cordoned off with yellow "caution" tape.An officer with the Framingham motorcycle unit guarded the front door. Lights were on inside, and a number of people, including uniformed agents, were seen moving around inside the facility into the night.The FDA's criminal unit, the Office of Criminal Investigations, is a team of agents with specialized knowledge and training to investigate violations of food and drug laws. It pursues about 1,200 criminal cases each year.The raid came as a leading U.S. lawmaker called for an investigation of whether the compounding pharmacy violated federal laws covering potentially addictive drugs.The U.S. meningitis outbreak is widening. A 16th death was announced on Tuesday, a patient from southwest Virginia, that state's Department of Health said in a statement.Overall, there are 231 confirmed meningitis cases, according to Tuesday's tally from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an increase of 19 on the day.
"We will see more patients reporting in ill and we'll have to treat many more," Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious diseases expert at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, said on "CBS This Morning."The FDA on Monday widened its investigation of the cause of the fungal meningitis outbreak to other drugs made by NECC.Nearly 14,000 people nationwide are at risk of infection because they received injections from suspect steroid medications shipped to 76 facilities in 23 states.Besides the meningitis cases, two additional patients have a different type of fungal infection from injections in their joints (as opposed to back injections).Massachusetts Democratic Representative Edward Markey, a senior member of the committee that oversees business, called on the Justice Department to investigate whether NECC violated federal laws designed to stem illegal activity in controlled drugs.The company already faces multiple investigations by the FDA and several states, but Markey's request could launch an even more serious probe involving the Drug Enforcement Administration, which oversees sales of potentially addictive, or "controlled" drugs.
'CAN'T ASSURE THE STERILITY'
The FDA said on Monday it was looking into two other drugs made by NECC.
The agency said it had received reports of a patient with possible meningitis who received an injection of a different steroid from the one found to have caused the deaths. It said on Tuesday that one transplant patient was infected with a fungus after receiving a drug used in open heart surgery made by NECC. The FDA originally said two such patients were infected.Another patient identified by the FDA received an injection of the steroid triamcinolone, also supplied by NECC.During a conference call on Tuesday with doctors on the meningitis outbreak, FDA official Janet Woodcock stressed that the two additional products had not been linked to confirmed infections. She asked doctors to contact patients injected since May to make sure they had no signs of infection.NECC said in a statement that it was reviewing the new information from the FDA.
The FDA has been inspecting the NECC facilities. Woodcock said that based on the condition of the plant and other factors, "we really can't assure the sterility of these products."The legal threat to NECC also mounted as more victims of meningitis filed lawsuits, including two filed by Michigan residents this week.
All but eight of the 23 states that received suspect medications from the Massachusetts specialist pharmacy have reported at least one case of fungal meningitis.Meningitis is an infection of the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms include headache, fever and nausea. Fungal meningitis is not contagious.

The outbreak has raised questions about how the pharmaceuticals industry operates. NECC engaged in a practice called drug compounding that is not regulated by the FDA, which generally oversees drug manufacturers.In compounding, pharmacies prepare specific doses of approved medications, based on guidance from a doctor, to meet an individual patient's need.A Reuters investigation found that NECC solicited bulk orders from physicians and failed to require proof of individual patient prescriptions as required under state regulations, emails to a customer showed.State pharmacy regulators have said that NECC violated its license in Massachusetts by not requiring patient prescriptions before shipping products.

The states reporting cases of meningitis are Tennessee, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, New Jersey, Texas, Idaho, Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio and Florida.

Rafael expected to brush Bermuda; Hurricane Paul headed towards Baja

Posted by: Dr. Jeff Masters, 3:24 PM GMT on October 15, 2012

+17

Tropical Storm Rafael is intensifying as it pulls away from the Lesser Antilles Islands. Data from the Hurricane Hunters and satellite loops show that Rafael has gotten more organized this morning, with a blow-up of very heavy thunderstorms near the center that have created a large Central Dense Overcast (CDO), the hallmark of an intensifying tropical storm that is near hurricane strength. Rafael is experiencing high wind shear near 20 knots, and this shear is expected to remain constant through Tuesday, which should allow Rafael to intensify into a Category 1 hurricane. Sporadic heavy rains from Rafael will gradually diminish today over the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. A tropical storm warning has been posted for Bermuda, but if Rafael follows the official NHC forecast track, tropical storm-force winds will remain just offshore from Bermuda as Rafael makes its closest pass by the island on Tuesday evening. The 11 am EDT wind probability forecast from NHC gave Bermuda a 29% chance of experiencing tropical storm-force winds between Monday night and Wednesday morning, and a 1% chance of experiencing hurricane-force winds. The models are pretty tightly clustered showing a track for Rafael to the east of Bermuda, putting the island on the weaker (left front) side of the storm.

Hurricane Paul forms in the Eastern Pacific
Hurricane Paul is putting on a burst of rapid intensification, and is a strong Category 1 hurricane with 90 mph as it heads northwards towards Mexico's Baja Peninsula. Paul will have favorable conditions for intensification through Tuesday morning, when wind shear is predicted to rise to the high range, above 20 knots. Paul should be weakening quickly as it approaches the coast of Baja Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, but heavy rains from the storm will spread over Baja beginning on Tuesday night, and these rains will be capable of causing flooding problems. Paul's formation brings this year's tally of named storms in the East Pacific to sixteen, making 2012 just the third year since records began in 1949 that both the Eastern Pacific and Atlantic have had at least sixteen named storms. The other years were 2003 and 2008. On average, the Eastern Pacific experiences one named storm after October 15, which would bring this season's total activity to 17 named storms, 10 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes. An average Eastern Pacific season has 15 named storms, 8 hurricanes, and 3 major hurricanes.

A rare early-season major tropical cyclone in the Southwest Pacific
It's springtime in the Southern Hemisphere, where Category 3 Tropical Cyclone Anais is churning southwestwards towards Madgascar. According to Meteo France in La Reunion Island, Anais is the earliest major hurricane to form during the Southwest Indian Ocean's tropical cyclone season, which typically runs from November to May. Anais' formation in mid-October is akin to getting a major hurricane in the Atlantic during April--something which has never occurred (the earliest major hurricane on record in the Atlantic occurred on May 21, 1951.) Anais is the second earliest hurricane of any kind to form so early in the Southwest Indian Ocean tropical cyclone season, after Tropical Cyclone Blanche of October 10, 1969. Anais has moved over cooler waters, and has weakened slightly to 115 mph winds, down from the peak 120 mph it had on Sunday. Further weakening is expected over the next few days as wind shear increases and the waters beneath continue to cool, and Anais is not expected to directly impact any land areas.
