Next phase of underwater MH370 search begins-AFP-OCT 6,14-YAHOONEWS

The hunt for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 entered a new phase on Monday with the resumption of the underwater search for the aircraft, officials said.Until now experts had been concentrating on mapping the seabed in the southern Indian Ocean search zone where the plane carrying 239 people is thought to have crashed in March.The Malaysian-contracted GO Phoenix vessel has now arrived in the area and begun its work scanning the ocean floor for the jet, the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) said."The vessel GO Phoenix, with equipment and experts provided by Phoenix International, has arrived in the search area in the southern Indian Ocean, and commenced underwater search operations," the bureau said in a statement. Australia has been spearheading the hunt for the plane which is believed to have hit the ocean after mysteriously diverting off-course from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing and running out of fuel.The search for MH370 has been frustrated by a lack of solid information about the jet's final hours and the vast and largely unexplored area in which it is presumed to have crashed.After massive air and sea surface searches failed to locate any sign of the Boeing 777-200, and an undersea probe also came up empty-handed, experts analysed satellite transmissions from the plane to pinpoint the best area to search for the plane.Given the unknown nature of the ocean floor in that area -- since found to include extinct volcanoes, sheer ridges and deep trenches -- a bathymetric survey to map the seabed was considered vital before an underwater search could start.This survey, which has mapped some 110,000 square kilometres (44,000 square miles) of the remote area since May, has paved the way for the work of the GO Phoenix that will conduct a deep-water, side scan sonar search.The GO Phoenix will tow sensitive underwater equipment over the seabed in the hunt for irregularities, such as large parts of the aircraft that could still be in intact like the engines and fuselage, the ATSB has said."With this system, detailed high resolution images of the search area will be collected and analyzed in real time... in an effort to locate the wreckage of MH370," Phoenix International said in a statement late last month.

- Authorities 'cautiously optimistic' -

Australian authorities have said they are "cautiously optimistic" that the plane will be located in the refined search zone, although they have said the process could take up to a year."What we have is a plan to cover the high priority areas, (but) we don't really have any sense of when in the course of that year we're likely to find something," ATSB chief Martin Dolan told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation."All we want to indicate to everyone is we're cautiously optimistic in the course of a year we'll locate the missing aircraft."But he admits there is still uncertainty, given the limited data experts have to work with."We're by no means 100 percent confident but we know we're searching the highest probability areas and we remain cautiously optimistic we'll be successful," he said."Within those priority areas, where the aircraft is most likely to be, we have very good vessels, equipment and crews who'll be undertaking the search, so we've positioned ourselves to give every prospect of success."Australia and Malaysia are jointly funding the underwater search which will also include two other vessels, Fugro Discovery and Fugro Equator, from later this month.GO Phoenix is expected to search for about 12 days before sailing to the Western Australian port of Fremantle to be resupplied.

A fire and explosion at a military explosives facility near the Iranian capital Tehran has left at least two people dead, reports say.The semi-official Iranian Students News Agency (Isna) said the fire was in an "explosive materials production unit".A pro-opposition website reported a huge blast near the Parchin military site, south-east of the capital, but this was not confirmed.Parchin has been linked to Iran's controversial nuclear programme.The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has not been given access to the complex since 2005.Analysts say the IAEA suspects Iran of experimenting with explosives capable of triggering a nuclear weapon at Parchin.

Windows shattered

The pro-reform website Sahamnews said the explosion on Sunday evening was so intense that windows of buildings 15km (nine miles) away were shattered.The glare from the blast could also be seen from a great distance, the report added.Isna, quoting Iran's defence industries organisation, said: "Unfortunately, due to the incident, two workers of this production unit lost their lives."It gave no further details.Last month, the IAEA said more activity had been conducted at the Parchin military base.It said Iran had also missed a deadline to answer further questions about its nuclear programme.Iran is in negotiations with six world powers on a permanent agreement over its nuclear industry.The West suspects Iran of trying to develop a nuclear weapon but Iranian leaders insist they only want atomic energy.Talks are focused on lifting Western sanctions in exchange for a scaling-back of Iran's uranium enrichment programme, and a deadline for the agreement has been set for 24 November.

UK faces 'nuclear option' if it scraps European rights charter-Today @ 17:30-SEPT 6,14-EUOBSERVER-By Nikolaj Nielsen

BRUSSELS - The European Commission may seek to suspend the UK's voting rights at the EU level should it withdraw from the European convention of human rights.The threat surfaced after a Tory policy document issued last week by the UK’s justice secretary Chris Grayling revealed plans to downgrade the jurisdiction of the European court of human rights to that of an advisory body.UK conservatives want to renegotiate the decades-old pact with the Strasbourg-based human rights watchdog, the Council of Europe, should the court's judgments remain binding.“In the event that we are unable to reach that agreement, the UK would be left with no alternative but to withdraw from the European convention of human rights,” notes the eight-page position paper.EU member states also have an “explicit obligation” to the convention under the EU treaty rules.Should a Conservative-led UK government decide to scrap it, the commission could invoke article seven of the treaties.“Such a situation, which the commission hopes will remain purely hypothetical, would need to be examined under articles 6 and 7 of the Treaty on European Union,” a commission source told this website.Article 7 is commonly referred to as the ‘nuclear option’ of the commission’s enforcement arsenal and could lead to the suspension of a member state's voting rights.It has never been used. Austria was once threatened over fourteen years ago when the centre-right party went into government with the far-right Freedom Party.

Invoking the article is also not easy.

A large backing of member states and the European Parliament must “determine the existence of a serious and persistent breach” of values outlined in the charter of fundamental rights.London-based think tank Open Europe says making such a legal argument for a values breach, should the UK withdraw, would be difficult because there is a commitment to enshrine the convention in Britain’s domestic law.Prime minister David Cameron had mooted the policy move earlier this month when he pledged to scrap the UK’s human rights act.“Let me put this very clearly: we do not require instruction on this from judges in Strasbourg,” said Cameron in a speech at a party conference in Birmingham.Critics describe the Tory policy brief and Cameron's pronouncements as an attempt to attract Ukip voters in the lead up to the elections and possible referendum to leave the EU.

Few case rules against UK at Europe court

The origins of the Tory grief is rooted, in part, in three disputed judgments handed down by the Strasbourg-based court on prisoner voting, life sentences for prisoners, and the deportation of alleged terrorist Abu Qatada.All three decisions are unpopular in the UK, sparking complaints against the overall binding nature of the European court judgments on British law.While the judgments are binding, their enforcement is limited to exerting peer pressure from the council of ministers, a political body.

The UK wins most of the cases brought against it.

Last year, the court dealt with 1,652 applications concerning the UK - 1,633 or 98.8 percent were declared inadmissible or struck out.Only in eight cases – or 0.4 percent - did the court find at least one violation of convention rights.The UK has had a total of 499 judgments passed onto it between 1959 and 2013. By comparison, Turkey has had 2,994, Italy 2,268, Russia 1,475 and France 913.

There are four possible scenarios for the UK and the Council of Europe.

First, it can remain a member. Second, it can withdraw after a six-month notice and join Belarus as the only other European nation not in the body.Greece, while under military dictatorship rule, is so far the only country to have ever withdrawn membership.Third, the Council can either accept specific arrangements for the UK, which don’t apply to the other 46 states running the risk that Russia, Turkey, Azerbaijan, possibly others may also make similar demands.Fourth, the Council can accept in principle that the court’s judgement just becomes advisory.The UK was among the first to ratify the European convention of human rights in 1950.

Three at-risk commissioners try to win over MEPs-Today @ 12:28-OCT 6,14-EUOBSERVER-By Honor Mahony

BRUSSELS - Three of the five commissioners that are facing difficulties in their European Parliament hearings spent their weekend doing homework, handing in elaborate responses running to thousands of words. The Hungarian (Tibor Navracsics), Czech (Vera Jourova) and British (Jonathan Hill) commissioners, in charge of education, justice and financial services, respectively, were all sent back to the drawing board after inconclusive hearings last week.Of the three, only Hill is actually to face another cross-examination, while the others are hoping their written replies alone will convince wavering MEPs.

A European public prosecutor in 2016

Jourova, whose portfolio spans a large policy area including consumers and gender equality, faced the most questions (45) across a wide-range of issues running from Roma rights, to data protection, to women on company boards and corporate laws.Among her answers she pledges to try and get the European public prosecutor’s office in place by 2016; do her "utmost" to unblock an equality law that would ban discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation; "revitalise" negotiations on a failed maternity leave law; and uphold the principle of free movement of people which "should not be taken hostage for political purposes".In answer to MEPs' concerns that her portfolio is too broad, she noted that: "While the portfolio covers a wide-range of areas, it has a coherent set of values.""I intend to put people at the centre of my work, based around the three principles of more choice, more protection and more trust."While Jourova had the most questions to answer, Hill's replies to his 23 questions were the lengthiest with the document running to 22 pages.

UK commissioner to serve in the "general interest'

In it, the British Conservative, who came under fire for giving vague answers last week, sought to allay MEPs' concerns about his alleged closeness to the financial sector and about his nationality, as the UK is set to take political centre-stage in the coming years over its EU membership."If confirmed, I will be a European Commissioner, serving the general interest, not any one member state's interest," he said.In response to a question about which financial services clients he had worked for when he was a lobbyist he noted that he has "no directorships, no shares, indeed have no interests at all, in any financial services companies".He also notes that the period since he left a consultancy was "three times as long" as the 18 months required by EU commission rules for a person taking up new employment in the same sector.On eurobonds - a form of debt mutualisation across the eurozone favoured by several MEPs, but highly controversial - Hill noted that it is "very unlikely that a consensus on issuance of eurobonds can be achieved at this time".While questions to Hill and Jourova stayed mainly on upcoming policies, Navracsics was asked to explain several past policy moves by the Hungarian government which have caused clashes with Brussels.

Taking distance from Orban

Over the course of his six replies, the former foreign minister made several attempts to distance himself from Budapest, noting a couple of times that he "no longer belongs" to the government.His lengthiest answer is on Hungary's media law, which critics say is an attempt to clamp down on free press."Numerous aspects of this original text did not reflect my personal views," said Navracsics. He added that the final version came about after discussion with the EU institutions, however.He promised to "fully respect" media freedom and pluralism when he is commissioner."I regret that sometimes in the past, not enough importance has been given to this important aspect by the Hungarian government, to which I no longer belong."Asked about Hungary's "highly controversial policies in the field of education," Navracsics noted that the government's attempts to centralise education policies were due to earlier decentralisation leading to poorer education standards rather than any "ideological ambition".When asked to "officially and publicly condemn" Hungary's media and judiciary reforms "that you inspired" he said the process of discussing the laws with Brussels had been instructive and the laws were changed in light of demands by the EU and by the Council of Europe, a human rights watch dog."I learnt that it would have been wise to engage in these discussions and consultations earlier, and in a more sensitive manner as regards the importance of fundamental rights and the rule of law across the European Union."

NATO chief says 'spearhead' plan doesn't breach treaty with Russia-Reuters-By Wiktor Szary-OCT 6,14-YAHOONEWS

LASK AIR FORCE BASE Poland (Reuters) - NATO's plan to beef up its military presence in eastern Europe does not violate a post-Cold War deal struck with Russia on military force levels in the region, new alliance chief Jens Stoltenberg said on a visit to Poland on Monday.At an air force base in central Poland, Stoltenberg said he was committed to implementing a plan for a new "spearhead" rapid reaction force, conceived to reassure NATO member states in eastern Europe alarmed by Russia's intervention in Ukraine.Moscow has said this increased military presence on its western flank could violate a 1997 agreement on the type and size of forces NATO can station in former Soviet states.Asked about the pact in an interview at the Lask air force base, Stoltenberg told Reuters that NATO's increased military presence was in accordance with the U.S.-led bloc's international obligations."There is no contradiction between more military presence in this area and also respecting the rule-based international order," said Stoltenberg, a former Norwegian prime minister.The previous NATO chief, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, was an outspoken critic of Russia's actions in Ukraine. Since his appointment to the job Stoltenberg has, at times, used more conciliatory language towards Russia.His choice of Poland as the venue for his first trip outside NATO headquarters was symbolic. Poland is one of the most hawkish of the ex-Soviet alliance members towards Russia.Stoltenberg, 55, who in his youth was an anti-war activist, is known for his skills in forging compromise and his knowledge of Russia. As Norwegian premier, he built a personal friendship with Russia's then-president, Dmitry Medvedev.

RADAR PLANE

But Stoltenberg said on Monday there had been no change in the fundamental position that NATO had to be, first and foremost, a strong military alliance."We need to keep NATO strong, we need to help keep our neighborhood stable in cooperation with our partners and we need a rock-solid bond between the United States and Europe."That creates the best foundation for a more constructive, more cooperative relationship with Russia," Stoltenberg said.Relations between Moscow and NATO are at a post-Cold War low over Russia's actions in Ukraine, where Moscow - as well as supporting separatists - annexed the Crimean peninsula in March after protesters overthrew Kiev's pro-Moscow president.NATO has made clear it will not intervene militarily in Ukraine, which is not an alliance member.Stoltenberg spoke to Reuters on board a NATO-operated AWACS early warning radar aircraft, in front of banks of computer screens. The plane was on the tarmac at the Lask airfield, used by U.S. and Polish aircraft as a base for joint exercises.During his visit, he spoke to aircrews from the United States, Canada, Portugal, Germany and other NATO states who, from bases elsewhere in the region, patrol the alliance's air space to detect any incursions by Russian aircraft.He used tough language to describe Russia's role in Ukraine, saying in particular he was concerned about breaches of a ceasefire agreed between Kiev and the pro-Moscow separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.NATO accuses the Kremlin of using its military to support the rebels, an accusation that Russia has denied."Russia has violated international law and has violated its international commitment and violated the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine," Stoltenberg said."We call on Russia to respect international law and to-respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine and to use their influence on separatists to make them respect the ceasefire," he said. "Russia has to change their actions, their behavior."(Writing by Christian Lowe; Editing by Mark Heinrich)

Hong Kong democracy protests fade, face test of stamina-Reuters-By John Ruwitch and Clare Baldwin-OCT 6,14-YAHOONEWS

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Pro-democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong rolled into early Tuesday with hundreds of students remaining camped out in the heart of the city after more than a week of rallies and behind-the-scenes talks showing modest signs of progress.Student-led protesters early on Monday lifted a blockade of government offices that had been the focal point of their action, initially drawing tens of thousands onto the streets. Civil servants were allowed to pass through the protesters' barricades unimpeded. Several streets through downtown Hong Kong, which houses offices for international banks, luxury malls and the main stock exchange, remained barricaded and vehicle-free, although pedestrians could walk freely through the area.Over the past week, tens of thousands of protesters have demanded that the city's Beijing-appointed leader Leung Chun-ying quit and that China allow Hong Kong people the right to vote for a leader of their choice in 2017 elections.The stalemate appeared late on Monday to be nearing a potential turning point, however, when a senior official said formal talks to address the protesters' demands and end the demonstrations may begin later in the week.After preparatory discussions with student representatives on Monday night, Lau Kong-wah, the Hong Kong government's Undersecretary of Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, said both sides had agreed on general principles for the formal talks."I think today's meeting was successful and progress has been made," he told reporters."We both hope to hold these discussions soon as possible and we hope that we will be able to begin them within this week."The 'Occupy Central' protests, an idea conceived over a year ago, have presented Beijing with one of its biggest political challenges since it crushed pro-democracy demonstrations in and around Tiananmen Square in the Chinese capital in 1989.Facing separatist unrest in far-flung Tibet and Xinjiang, Beijing fears that calls for democracy in Hong Kong could spread to the mainland. The Communist Party leadership has dismissed the Hong Kong protests as illegal but has left Leung's government to find a solution.

HARD TO QUIT

Protest leaders have promised to carry on with the "Occupy" demonstrations until their demands are met."Unless (we) gain significant achievement then there is no way to quit. It has to end when, and only when, the government promises something, otherwise it is impossible to persuade the people to quit," said Alex Chow, leader of the Hong Kong Federation of Students."The pressure generated here will also be delivered to Beijing because China still has to rule Hong Kong and they have to stabilise Hong Kong. How the Hong Kong government responds to the citizens will affect stability. If they handle it in a very adverse way then it will also affect mainland China."The protests have ebbed and flowed over the past week, with people leaving the streets overnight to return later. Police have taken a hands-off approach since last Sunday when they fired tear gas and pepper spray at protesters, creating a public relations mess and provoking more people to join the unrest."I hope students can persist. If we retreat now we will lose the power to negotiate," said Chow Ching-lam, who was studying on the ground at the main protest site.Fearing a crackdown after city leaders called for the streets to be cleared so businesses, schools and the civil service could resume on Monday, protesters who have paralysed parts of the former British colony with mass sit-ins pulled back from outside Leung's office.Some banks that had closed branches during the unrest of the past week opened for business on Monday.

DISCREPANCIES ON TALKS

A first meeting to pave the way for formal talks between government officials and student representatives was held on Sunday and another was expected on Tuesday, students said."Whether we will get results from our discussions depends on the sincerity of the government and their attitude towards the occupying protesters," Lester Shum, vice secretary of the Hong Kong Federation of Students, told a news conference late on Monday. Shum said he hoped the formal talks could start before Sunday.Across Victoria Harbour in the gritty Mong Kok neighbourhood, some protesters also pulled back from where scuffles had broken out at the weekend with supporters of the government, prompting police to use pepper spray and batons again.The protests have disrupted businesses and helped wipe close to $50 billion off the value of shares on the Hong Kong stock exchange.The World Bank said the protests were hurting Hong Kong's economy, but the impact on China was limited at this point."What we anticipate is obviously a greater impact on the Hong Kong SAR (Special Administrative Region), so slower growth in 2014 than was being anticipated earlier," World Bank East Asia and Pacific Chief Economist Sudhir Shetty said on Monday."But at this stage our best estimates ... are that there isn't as yet significant spillover to the broader Chinese economy," he told a media briefing on the latest East Asia Pacific Economic Update.(Additional reporting by Clare Jim, Twinnie Siu, James Pomfret, Clare Baldwin, Joseph Campbell, Yimou Lee, Diana Chan, Kinling Lo and Venus Wu; Writing by Paul Tait and Jeremy Laurence; Editing by Mark Heinrich)

Dutch goals for renewable energy criticised as unrealistic-Today @ 09:28-OCT 6,14-EUOBSERVER-By Peter Teffer

Brussels - The feasibility of a Dutch agreement on energy that had been heralded as “an important step towards a cleaner future”, has been thrown into question a year after it was signed.The 'Energy Agreement for Sustainable Growth', presented in September last year, was a typically Dutch piece of cooperation between government, unions, employers and environmental organisations.However, the aim of achieving a 14 percent share of renewable energy by 2020, and 16 percent in 2023, is criticised as unrealistic in a leaked report by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and several other organisations.The report will be released on Tuesday (7 October) but was published by RTLZ on Friday (3 October).The “most plausible estimate” for 2020 is that 10.6 percent of Dutch energy will be from renewable sources.If planned policy changes are implemented, the best case scenario will be 12.4 percent, one page from the leaked report said.The 2023 goal will also not be reached easily: “In favourable conditions, the share can end up at 16 percent, but if there are setbacks, at 13 percent.”In 2012, the share of renewable energy in the Netherlands was 4.5 percent according to Eurostat, well below the EU average of 14.1 percent. Only Malta, Luxembourg and the UK have lower shares.The 14 percent goal is what the Netherlands should achieve if the European goal of 20 percent renewable energy in 2020 is to be met.The leader of the social democrats in parliament, Diederik Samsom, said it would be “unacceptable” if the Energy Agreement targets aren't met.“These goals are the absolute minimum. If they are in danger of not being achieved, we expect additional measures from the government”, Samsom wrote in a blog.Samsom, an ex-Greenpeace activist, leads his centre-left party in a coalition government with the centre-right liberals of prime minister Mark Rutte. His party was criticised by his former employer on Friday (3 October) for not being ambitious enough.During a debate in parliament last week, the social democrats did not support proposals from the opposition to try to achieve “ambitious” targets in climate negotiations later this month.“The Netherlands is going to the climate negotiations in Brussels empty-handed”, Greenpeace Netherlands wrote.

October summit

Government leaders will discuss targets for 2030 in the negotiations, which should be concluded in Brussels on 23 and 24 October.The European Commission hopes that the market share of renewable energy by that year will be 30 percent, but six Eastern and Central European states last week declared that such goals must be “realistic”.Economic affairs minister Henk Kamp was criticised in the Lower House of the Dutch parliament last week for climate goals that are “too non-committal”.If EU-wide targets are not translated into goals for individual member states, “they have a lot less chance of succeeding”, Green MP Liesbeth van Tongeren said in parliament.Kamp denied being non-committal. He said the European Commission should “try to let all European countries do what is necessary to achieve the desired ambitious European contribution”. Meanwhile, according to a report from the University of Vienna published Monday (6 October), the Netherlands is not the only country that will have difficulty reaching the 2020 targets.The researchers write that half of the EU member states "will fail to meet their 20% Renewables target by 2020, as progress stands today".

Islamic State raises flag in eastern Kobani, Kurds say town has not fallen-Reuters-By Daren Butler-OCT 6,14-YAHOONEWS

MURSITPINAR Turkey (Reuters) - Islamic State raised its flag on a building on the outskirts of the Syrian frontier town of Kobani on Monday after an assault of almost three weeks, but the town's Kurdish defenders said its fighters had not reached the city centre.A black flag belonging to Islamic State was visible from across the Turkish border atop a four-storey building close to the scene of some of the most intense clashes in recent days.The radical al Qaeda offshoot has been battling to seize the predominantly Kurdish town after taking over large swathes of territory in northern Syria and Iraq in recent months.Air strikes by American and Gulf state warplanes have failed to halt its advance on Kobani, which it has besieged from three sides and pounded with heavy artillery.Local sources inside Kobani confirmed that the group, formerly known as ISIL, had planted its flag, but said Kurdish forces had repelled its advances so far."ISIL have only planted a flag on one building," said Ismail Eskin, a journalist in the town. "That is not inside the city, it's on the eastern side. They are not inside the city. Intense clashes are continuing. The bodies of 25 (Islamic State) fighters are there."Mortars have rained down on residential areas of Kobani, and stray fire has hit Turkish territory in recent days. But Kurdish pleas for more effective military help have so far gone unanswered, despite the presence of Turkish tanks arrayed along the border, within sight of the town.Islamic State also fought intense battles over the weekend for control of Mistanour, a strategic hill overlooking Kobani. A video released by the group on Sunday appeared to show its fighters in control of radio masts on the summit, but the footage could not be independently confirmed and Eskin said fighting for the high ground was continuing on Monday.

ONCE A HAVEN

Until recently, the city had hardly been touched by the civil war that has ravaged much of Syria, and even offered a haven for refugees from fighting elsewhere, as President Bashar al-Assad chose to let the Kurdish population have virtual autonomy.But now Islamic State wants to take the town to consolidate a dramatic sweep across northern Iraq and Syria, in the name of an absolutist version of Sunni Islam, that has sent shockwaves through the Middle East.Beheadings, mass killings and torture have spread fear of the group across the region, with villages emptying at their approach and an estimated 180,000 people fleeing into Turkey from the Kobani region.On Sunday, one female Kurdish fighter blew herself up rather than be captured by Islamic State after running out of ammunition, local sources and a monitoring group reported. Turkish hospitals have been treating a steady stream of wounded Kurdish fighters being brought across the frontier.Witnesses who had fled Kobani said that old women were being given grenades to throw, and young women with no fighting experience were being armed and sent into battle.Kobani's defenders vowed not to relinquish the town, raising fears of a massacre if Islamic State do break through."If they enter Kobani, it will be a graveyard for us and for them. We will not let them enter Kobani as long as we live," Esmat al-Sheikh, head of the Kobani Defence Authority, said by telephone earlier on Monday."We either win or die. We will resist to the end," he added as heavy weapons fire echoed from the eastern side of town.

"WE NEED MORE HELP"

Speaking last week, the co-chair of the Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) told Reuters that Islamic State had brought large parts of its arsenal from its de facto capital at Raqqa, 140 km to the southeast, to the assault on Kobani."If (Islamic State) is defeated here in Kobani, it will be defeated in Raqqa and throughout Syria," Asya Abdullah said."We are happy about the U.S. air strikes. But really, this is not enough. We need more air strikes to be effective against (Islamic State) weapons, to eradicate and destroy (them)."On Monday, Kurdish politicians confirmed that the PYD's other co-chair, Saleh Muslim, had met Turkish officials to urge them to allow weapons into Kobani from Turkey, although no further details were available.Turkey has so far given no hint that it could join the fight against Islamic State close to its borders, beyond gestures of self-defense such as returning fire at Islamic State fighters in response to mortar shells landing on Turkish territory.Over the weekend, President Tayyip Erdogan vowed to retaliate if Islamic State attacked Turkish forces, and on Monday Turkish tanks deployed along the border for the second time in a week, some with guns pointing towards Syria, apparently in response to stray fire.Still, Islamic State's release last month of 46 Turkish hostages, and a parliamentary motion last week renewing a mandate allowing Turkish troops to cross into Syria and Iraq, have raised expectations that Ankara may be planning a more active role.

Its calculations are complex, however.

For three decades, Ankara has fought an armed insurgency by its own Kurdish PKK militants demanding greater autonomy in Turkey's southeast.Analysts say it is now wary of helping Syrian Kurdish forces near Kobani as they have strong links with the PKK and have maintained ambiguous relations with Assad, to whom Turkey is implacably opposed.Against that are warnings from the leaders of Turkey's Kurds that allowing Syria's Kurds to be driven from Kobani would spell the end of Erdogan's delicately poised drive to negotiate an end to his own Kurdish insurgency and permanently disarm the PKK.(Additional reporting by Hamdi Istanbullu in Mursitpinar, Mariam Karouny in Beirut, Ayla Jean Yackley and Humeyra Pamuk in Istanbul, Writing by Jonny Hogg; Editing by Kevin Liffey)

Islamic State group publicly kills 6 Iraqi troops-Associated Press-By QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA October 5, 2014 10:45 AM-YAHOONEWS

BAGHDAD (AP) — Militants from the Islamic State group on Sunday publicly killed six Iraqi soldiers captured in an embattled western province where the extremists continue to advance despite an expanding U.S.-led campaign of airstrikes, residents said.The killings took place in the town of Hit, about 140 kilometers (85 miles) west of the capital, Baghdad, which the Islamic State fighters overran on Thursday night.The Iraqi soldiers — one in uniform and five in civilian clothes — were lined up against a wall in Hit and shot in the head, the residents said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they feared for their own safety. The militants also bombed a police station in Hit, they said.The fall of Hit was the latest victory by the Islamic State group as it battles the Iraqi military in western Anbar province.Since launching airstrikes in August against the militants in Iraq, the U.S. has hit Islamic State group's positions in Anbar multiple times. On Sunday, U.S. Central Command said that it conducted six airstrikes in Iraq the previous day, including one in Hit in which it destroyed two Islamic State Humvees. The U.S. military also conducted four airstrikes in the nearby city of Fallujah, and in northern Iraq, it conducted one strike in the town of Sinjar, CENTCOM said.___Associated Press writer Vivian Salama in Baghdad contributed to this report.

FALSE POPE FROM THE VATICAN

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

REVELATION 17:1-5,9,15-18
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication,(VATICAN IN POLITICS) and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman (FALSE CHURCH) was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour,(VATICAN COLOURS)(ANOTHER REASON WE KNOW THE FALSE POPE COMES FROM THE VATICAN) and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.(THE VATICAN IS BUILT ON 7 HILLS OR MOUNTAINS)

16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast,(WORLD DICTATOR) these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.(BOMB OR NUKE THE VATICAN)

10/ 6/2014 - VATICAN INSIDER-Francis opens Synod, urging participants to speak their mind and listen humbly-The Pope at the Synod-Today the Pope introduced the first working session of the Synod: it is not good for cardinals to keep what they really think to themselves just because they believe the Pope thinks differently. The archbishop of Barcelona says: we are Samaritans. In today’s world, it’s no longer 99 sheep and one that has goes astray, but the other way round-Iacopo Scaramuzzi
vatican city-Introducing the first session of the Extraordinary Synod on the Family this morning, Pope Francis said he wants Synod Fathers to speak their mind and listen with humility. The gathering began today in the New Synod Hall and will end on 19 October, in two weeks time.“One general and basic condition is this: speak out. Nobody should say: 'I can't say this or they will think this of me...,' Francis said. “We must all say what you feel with parresia (unabashedly). After the last Consistory (February 2014), when the family issue was discussed, one cardinal wrote to me saying: it is a pity some cardinals didn’t have the courage to say certain things out of respect fort he Pope, believing that the Pope may have thought differently. This is not good; this is not what synodality is about, because we must say everything we feel we need to say, in the spirit of the Lord, without pusillanimity and without fear. At the same time, we must listen humbly and embrace with an open heart what our brothers tell us. These two attitudes express synodality. This is why I ask you please to adopt these two fraternal attitudes, in the name of the Lord: to “feel with parresia” and “listen humbly”. Do this calmly and peacefully, because the Synod always takes place cum Petro et sub Petro and the Pope’s presence is a guarantee for everyone and protects the faith. Dear brothers, let us all work together to ensure a solid spirit of synodality.”The Pope took the central seat, flanked by the Secretary of the Synod Cardinal Lorenzo Baldisseri and the Relator General, the Archbishop of Budapest Peter Erdö, as well as the three delegate presidents, the Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal André Vingt-Trois, the Archbishop of Manila, Louis Antonio Tagle, the Archbishop of Aparecida, Raymundo Damasceno Assis and the Special Secretary, the Bishop of Chieti, Bruno Forte. An ebony statuette of the Sacred Family stood on the table. The statuette was given tot he Pope as a gift by bishops of the Democratic Republic of Congo who recently went on their visit “ad limina apostolorum”.After thanking the Synod Fathers, Bishops’ Conferences and staff of the Secretariat of  the Synod  (“They worked tirelessly and they continue to work to ensure the success of the Synod: thank you so much and may the Lord reward you!”). The Pope underlined stressed: “I wanted the spirit of synodality to be reflected in the election of the relator, the secretary general and the delegate presidents. The first two were elected by the post-Synodal Council directly. This was also elected by those who participated in the last Synod. Since delegate presidents must be selected by the Pope, I asked the post-Synodal Council itself to propose candidates and I nominated the individuals the Council suggested to me,” the Pope underlined. “You make the voice of particular Churches heard, you bring together local Churches through the Bishops’ Conferences. The universal Church and particular Churches are divine creations; understood as such, local Churches are a human creation. You make these voice heard in synodality. It is a big responsibility: presenting the realities and problems of the various Churches to help them walk along the path of the Gospel of the family.”Before the break and before Cardinal Peter Erdö presented his Relatio ante disceptationem, the Secretary of the Synod, Cardinal Baldisseri, presented the meeting, by reminding participants of the various phases that preceded this gathering, expected changes and the work schedule. He also gave some practical tips on communication: “Don’t use Twitter during the debate, so as to ensure confidentiality,” the Tuscan cardinal told Synod Fathers. “You are free to talk to journalists and give interviews outside the Synod hall. It is up to each individual participant to decide what to say, helping to develop the debate on all the various issues being discussed.”

10/ 6/2014 - VATICAN INSIDER-Francis: The Synod and the young who don’t want to marry-The number of couples living with each other rises-The drop in the number of church marriages is an issue that seems to have faded into the background in the debates that are currently taking place. Francis talks about this in an interview-ANDREA TORNIELLI

vatican city-Pope Francis looks at the young. At the many many young people who prefer to live together rather than get married. He said this in the context of the Synod, in an interview with Joaquín Morales Solá, published yesterday in Argentinian newspaper La Nación. “The family is such a precious and important part of today’s society and the Church... A great deal of emphasis has been placed on the divorced. Naturally, this issue will be discussed. But for me, the new trends among young people are just as important. Young people are not marrying. This is today’s culture. Many young people prefer to live together without getting married. What should the Church do? Cast them away from its bosom? Or should it approach them, understand them and try to bring the Word of God tot hem? I prefer the second option.”What seems to have slipped the minds of those engaged in the recent debates over the indissolubility of marriage, is that the number of people getting marriage in church, is dropping. And yet none of the Synod Fathers want to call the principle of the indissolubility of marriage into question. In Milan, to name but one example, 1,329 marriages were registered in the first half of this year. Only one in three of these was celebrated in a religious ceremony (374), while a just under a thousand couple (955) opted for a civil marriage ceremony. In one out of four cases, one of the spouses had come out of a failed marriage. The average age of first marriage is 37 for men and 33 for women, compared to 32 and 29 in 1991. In Milan, the number of singles is more than double that of married couples.To deal with this phenomenon by simply blurting out condemnations, wistfully looking back at the “good old days” and driving home religious doctrines, would clearly be counter-productive. The Church cannot just detach itself from the processes that have taken place over the last thirty to forty years, simply accusing today’s culture without asking itself why it has become so difficult for people to testify the beauty of the family.In yesterday’s homily, Francis recalled that “bad pastors burden people with an unbearable weight,” a weight they do not have to carry themselves. Francis wants this Synod to be careful and compassionate in its examination of the real experiences of families, including wounded and “irregular” families. Evangelising means being capable of embracing, being compassionate and understanding others. This has a priority over lists of rules and precepts. In this sense, Francis does not intend to change the Church’s doctrine on indissolubility, but is asking the entire Church to change its perspective, becoming more sensitive to the reality of people’s lives, proclaiming the Gospel and mercy in a calmer manner.In his interview with La Nación, the Pope also answered a question on the book which five cardinals published, opposing Cardinal Kasper’s suggestion regarding the administration of the sacraments to remarried divorcees: “It did not worry me. Everyone has an opinion to contribute.”

10/ 5/2014 - VATICAN INSIDER-Teenage mothers and polygamy: The global challenges the Pope faces-Francis with cardinals and bishops on the eve of the Synod-More than half the bishops at the Synod on the Family come from non-European countries-ANDREA TORNIELLI

vatican city-More than half (106 bishops) of the almost two hundred individuals participating in the Extraordinary Synod on the Family which opened today in the Vatican hail from Asia, Latin America, Africa and Oceania. It would be very short-sighted of us to therefore focus our attention exclusively on hot issues affecting European societies and Churches which are facing the challenge of secularism, to the detriment of the challenges and problems faced in other parts of the world. Aware of the complexity of said challenges and problems, the Synod’s Secretariat carried out a comprehensive consultation of the world’s Catholic communities in order to put together the document that is to form the basis of its work on the family. The document describes the real situation, that is, how men and women really experience family life and not how the Church would like them to live it.The Synod will need to address the issues affecting real families, rather than “the family” in general. There are parts of Africa where arranged marriages take place between 10-year-old girls and 60-year-old men. In countries like Niger and Chad, 70% of women between the ages of 20 and 24 were married before their 15th birthday.It is not easy for the Church to speak about a “natural law” – as bishops of Africa, Asia and Oceania pointed out – in places where polygamy is considered natural, as is disowning a wife for not being able to bear male sons. In Melanesia, meanwhile, our idea of a “traditional” family, is seen as a Western model that is hard to get one’s head around. This is because of the existence of matriarchal societies in which it is the responsibility of the mother’s brothers to educate a child rather than the biological father.Turning our focus back to the West, not only has the family landscape changed a great deal over the past 30 years – with fewer marriages being registered and an increase in the number of couples opting for civil partnerships and new legislation that recognizes same-sex unions – many people now work Sundays too, complicating family relations. Then there are the financial problems families face and the lack of policies to support them.To think that the Synod focuses entirely on the clash between those who suggest opening up the sacraments to remarried divorcees and those who have stated that this is not in any way open for discussion would be an oversimplification of the real situation.Pope Francis wants there to be a real and free debate. He does not want to impose set frameworks and has never strategically tried to sway the discussions. The fact that he chose some cardinals who are notoriously against a softer approach to this issue, is proof of this. But a Synod is different to a party conference or a shareholders’ meeting: for faithful, the Synod is a meeting in which participants seek to “walk together”, guiding each other and listening to a God who is greater than we are capable of imagining Him. It would therefore be wrong to try to fit Him neatly into neat boxes as some do, portraying those in favour of a more open attitude as swashbucklers who are prepared to chase after worldly tendencies, and those who are against, as staunch defenders of the doctrine. It would also be wrong to imagine Him like a boxing ring, where people try to claim back rights they believe are theirs, taking the end result for granted.What is certain, is that the Pope, Gospel in hand, continues to urge people to leave behind legalist mindsets: “The Church is called to be the house of the Father, with doors always wide open,” the house of the father, where there is room for everyone. As of tomorrow, the Synod is called to discuss, not the geometrical details of doctrinal formulae, but the problems, wounds and real experiences of people, as well as the urgent need for the Gospel to be proclaimed to these people, by welcoming and being close to them. Many hope that bishops will not only speak out against the customs of a “liquid” society and “attacks” on the family, but that they will also reflect on the causes of the gap that exists between the Church’s teaching and the daily lives of many Christians.

Ebola patient in Dallas 'fighting for his life' says CDC head-Reuters-October 5, 2014 11:09 AM-YAHOONEWS

DALLAS (Reuters) - The first person to develop Ebola in the United States was struggling to survive at a Dallas hospital on Sunday after his condition worsened to critical, the director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control said.Thomas Eric Duncan became ill after arriving in Dallas from Liberia two weeks ago - heightening concerns that the worst Ebola epidemic on record could spread from West Africa, where it began in March and has killed more than 3,400 people."The man in Dallas, who is fighting for his life, is the only patient to develop Ebola in the United States," CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden said on CNN's "State of the Union."Duncan's case has highlighted problems that American public health officials are trying furiously to address: The Dallas hospital that admitted him initially did not recognize the deadly disease and sent him home, only for him to return two days later in an ambulance."The issue of the missed diagnosis initially is concerning," Frieden said, adding that public health officials had redoubled their efforts to raise awareness of the disease."We're seeing more people calling us, considering the possibility of Ebola - that's what we want to see," he said on CNN. "We don't want people not to be diagnosed."Frieden said he was confident the disease would not spread widely within the United States. U.S. officials are also scaling up their response in West Africa, where Ebola presents an enormous challenge, he added."But it's going to take time," Frieden said. "The virus is spreading so fast that it's hard to keep up."In Dallas, a spokesman for Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, Wendell Watson, said Duncan remained critical on Sunday. He would not elaborate.In Nebraska, another hospital is preparing for the arrival of an Ebola patient who contracted the disease in Liberia, a spokesman said on Sunday. Nebraska Medical Center spokesman Taylor Wilson would only identify the patient as a male U.S. citizen expected to arrive on Monday.Fox TV in Boston identified the Nebraska patient as Ashoka Mukpo, a freelance NBC cameraman working for NBC who contracted Ebola in Liberia. It said he was expected back in the United States on Sunday.The Nebraska hospital last month also treated, and released, Dr. Rick Sacra, an American missionary who also contracted Ebola in Liberia. Sacra was admitted to a Massachusetts hospital on Saturday for a likely respiratory infection that is not believed to be a recurrence of the disease, hospital officials there said.The CDC has identified 10 people who had direct contact with Duncan as being at greatest risk of infection. Another 40 were being monitored as potential contacts, out of a group of 114 people initially evaluated for exposure risks, though none from either group has shown symptoms, Frieden said.Ebola, which can cause fever, vomiting and diarrhea, spreads through contact with bodily fluids such as blood or saliva.

Official: Enterovirus 68 virus caused boy's death-Associated Press-October 4, 2014 6:31 PM-YAHOONEWS

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — A virus that has been causing severe respiratory illness across the country is responsible for the death of a 4-year-old boy, a state medical examiner determined.Hamilton Township health officer Jeff Plunkett said the Mercer County medical examiner's office found the death of Eli Waller was the result of enterovirus 68. The virus has sickened more than 500 people in 43 states and Washington, D.C. — almost all of them children.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said earlier this week that four people infected with the virus had died, but it's unclear what role the virus played in the deaths.Some children are especially vulnerable to infection because of pre-existing conditions, though the medical examiner said that was not the case in the New Jersey boy's death. Most of the severe cases nationwide have involved children because they generally have not been exposed to enteroviruses as often as adults have and are less likely to have developed immunity to them, officials say.Township officials said the boy's parents have asked for privacy."When you're given the news that a virus was the cause of death to your child, of course they were saddened, even more so because they won't get the answers or closure they need," Mayor Kelly Yaede said. "The mother said, 'We will never find out where he contracted this.'"The enterovirus germ is not new; most people who catch the virus experience only a runny nose and low-grade fever. It was first identified in 1962 and has caused clusters of illness before.This year, the virus has gotten more attention because it has been linked to hundreds of severe illnesses. Beginning last month, hospitals in Kansas City, Missouri, and Chicago have received a flood of children with trouble breathing.

Japan volcano victims leave photos of last moments-Associated Press-By MARI YAMAGUCHI October 5, 2014 8:52 AM-YAHOONEWS

TOKYO (AP) — The victims include hiking enthusiasts from a major insurance company. Members of a group of nature lovers studying wild plants. A construction manager who snapped about 100 photos — found on his scratched and dented camera — to show his wife what she was missing because she had to work that day.More than 50 people died when Mount Ontake, a popular hiking destination in central Japan, erupted without warning on Sept. 27 in the country's deadliest volcanic eruption since World War II.Together, they paint a typical picture of weekend recreational hikers in Japan. A few children and senior citizens, but mostly middle-aged working people enjoying the first Saturday of the fall foliage season.Most were between 30 and 59 years old, and lived within a few hours' drive or train ride from the mountain. Three were children, and only five were 60 or older."The best season for the leaves just started, the weather was beautiful, it was the weekend, and it was lunchtime," said Masahito Ono, a Nagano prefecture tourism official.Hiking has become one of Japan's most popular outdoor activities. The core fans are middle-aged climbers with some experience, but there are a growing number of beginners: health-conscious senior citizens and fashionable women who sport a casual "mountain girl" look. The number of hikers in Nagano surged to 730,000 last year, a 30 percent increase from five years ago.With modest slopes and a ropeway that takes visitors part way up, 3,067-meter (10,062-foot) Mount Ontake is one of the easier climbs in the region, recommended as a day-trip for beginners. Several hundred people are believed to have been on the mountain when it erupted at 11:52 a.m.Rescuers have found 51 bodies, and at least a dozen other people are still missing. Most of the bodies were found at the summit, with others on a trail a short way down.Hideomi Takahashi, 41, was among nine climbers from a major Japanese insurance company, Sompo Japan Nipponkoa Holdings Inc. They worked at two branches near Tokyo. Only three survived.At Takahashi's funeral on Thursday, his family showed a close friend an iPhone with at least six photos from what would be the last few minutes of his life: a cotton candy-like cloud floating next to the mountain in a clear blue sky, a sacred gate to a mountaintop shrine, some of his colleagues making their way up. The last photo, apparently shot by a colleague, shows Takahashi standing next to the "Mount Ontake summit" sign, giving a thumbs-up."When I saw the iPhone still worked, I thought it's like a miracle," said the friend Hiroyuki, who asked that only his first name be used after he was criticized online for posting some of the photos on Twitter. He has since taken the tweets down.Takahashi seems happy in the final photo, but he's not quite smiling. "Maybe he saw signs of the eruption," Hiroyuki said, adding he has trouble accepting that his best friend died, leaving behind his wife and two children.Construction company employee Izumi Noguchi, 59, was climbing alone, as his usual hiking companion, his wife, Hiromi, had to work, she told Japanese broadcaster NHK and other TV stations. His compact camera was banged up, but the memory chip inside was undamaged. She printed all 100 shots. The last one is of an enormous plume billowing from the crater behind a mountaintop lodge."This is an amazing photo. But I wish he had fled instead of taking pictures. I'd rather have him back," Hiromi said. "I hope to hike up there someday, perhaps 10 years later. I want to see what my husband saw."Yasuo Ito, 54, didn't even have time to eat the lunch he packed.His wife, also named Hiromi, told NHK that Ito, a prefecture-funded housing agency employee, was among six members from a nature conservation volunteer group. Only three survived.She identified his body Thursday and received his ash-coated knapsack. She pulled out a lunchbox, which survived despite cracks on a side, then opened the top. His handmade egg salad sandwiches were untouched."Poor thing, he should have eaten this," she said. "He must be getting hungry by now."

Typhoon Phanfone Hits Japan; Typhoon Vongfong Next? By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 3:30 PM GMT on October 06, 2014-YAHOONEWS

Typhoon Phanfone made landfall as a Category 1 storm with 80 mph winds on Japan's main island of Honshu at 7:16 pm EDT Sunday, October 5, 2014 near the city of Hamamatsu in western Shizuoka Prefecture, about 125 miles west-southwest of Tokyo, according to the Japan Meteorological Agency. A few hours later, the core of the typhoon passed over Tokyo, where sustained winds of 53 mph, gusting to 70 mph were recorded. More than 2 million people across Japan were advised to evacuate as Phanfone came ashore. In Okinawa, Japan, three U.S. servicemen were swept away by Phanfone's 12 - 15 foot waves; the body of one was recovered, but the other two remain missing. Heavy rain from Phanfone triggered at least two mudslides in Japan. Two men went missing after mudslides in Yokohama, in Kanagawa Prefecture. A 21-year-old surfer and college student is also missing after going surfing in waters just south of Tokyo off the coast of Kanagawa Prefecture. Phanfone brought heavy rains to Japan, with 19.17" (487 mm) falling at Mount Amagi, Shizuoka Prefecture, 10.06" in Tokyo and 12.72" in Yokohama. A peak gust of 101.8 mph was recorded at Omaezaki, Shizuoka Prefecture, at 8:07 a.m. Monday, and a sustained wind of 72 mph was observed at Irozaki on the southern tip of the Izu Peninsula, Shizuoka Prefecture, at 9:01 a.m.Monday.Figure 1. Typhoon Phanfone approaching Japan, as seen by the MODIS instrument on NASA's Aqua satellite at 04:55 UTC October 5, 2014. At the time, Phanfone was a Category 2 storm with 105 mph winds.

Typhoon Vongfong hits the Mariana Islands
Category 2 Typhoon Vongfong plowed through the U.S. Mariana islands of Guam, Rota, Saipan, and Tinian on Sunday as a Category 2 storm with 105 mph winds. The eye passed just north of the island of Rota, about 25 miles north of Guam. According to the Guam Pacific Daily News, about 70% of Rota lost power, but there were no injuries and only minor damage--buildings on the island are built mostly of concrete, limiting the amount of damage a typhoon can do. Winds at Andersen AFB on the north end of Guam reached 44 mph with a peak gust of 60 mph, but were undoubtedly higher on Rota. Vongfong dumped 7.69" of rain on Guam. The typhoon is expected to turn more to the northwest later in the week, and could be a threat to Japan in 6 - 7 days. Satellite loops show Vongfong is moderately well-organized, with plenty of low-level spirals bands, good upper-level outflow, but no eye visible. With the typhoon over warm waters of 30°C (86°F) and under moderate wind shear of 10 - 20 knots, intensification into a Category 4 storm by Wednesday appears likely, before cooler waters and higher wind shear induce weakening late in the week as the typhoon approaches Japan.Figure 2. MODIS satellite image of Typhoon Vongfong taken at approximately 9 pm EDT October 5, 2014. At the time, Vongfong was a Category 1 storm with 90 mph winds, and had just passed through the Mariana Islands, passing just north or Rota. Image credit: NASA.

Simon weakening rapidly
In the Eastern Pacific, Tropical Storm Simon has weakened to sustained winds of 45 mph at 11 am EDT Monday, after topping out as a Category 4 hurricane with 135 mph winds at 11 pm EDT Saturday. Simon was the eighth intense hurricane so far in the Eastern Pacific (east of 140°W), putting this year in a tie with 1992 for the highest number of of major hurricanes in one season. Simon will likely dissipate by Tuesday, and its remnants will slosh to the northeast over the central coast of Mexico's Baja Peninsula and into Mainland Mexico, bringing 3 - 6" of rain into these regions though Wednesday. Deep moisture from Simon will flow northeastward into the Southwest U.S. this week, bringing a round of heavy rains for Arizona and New Mexico. There will not be as much moisture associated with Simon compared to the what the remnants of Hurricane Odile brought in September; rainfall amounts of 1 - 2" can be expected over Arizona and New Mexico Tuesday - Thursday from Simon's remnants.Figure 3. Predicted precipitation for the three-day period 8 am EDT Monday - 8 am EDT Thursday from the NWS Weather Prediction Center. A plume of 1 - 2" of rain is predicted over Northern Mexico and the Southwest U.S. from the remnants of Hurricane Simon.

Quiet in the Atlantic
Our top three models for predicting tropical cyclone genesis show nothing developing over the next five days in the Atlantic. However, the models predicts that an area of low pressure will develop over Central America near Nicaragua late this week, with the European model putting the focus of the low over Nicaragua's Pacific waters, while the GFS model prefers a location in the Southwest Caribbean. NHC is leaning towards the solution offered by the European model, and in their 8 am EDT Tropical Weather Outlook, give a 5-day probability of 20% for a tropical depression to form off the Pacific coast of Nicaragua this week. We should not discount the GFS model's prediction, though, and keep an eye on the Southwest Caribbean this week. Anything that develops should move slowly to the northwest, bringing very heavy rains to much of Central America late this week.Hurricane expert Steve Gregory offers his latest take on the tropics and the large-scale weather pattern over North America in his Sunday afternoon post.

Ambassadors Ask UN to Recognize Yom Kippur as Official Holiday-United Nations ambassadors from 32 countries asked that Yom Kippur be recognized as an official UN holiday.By Hillel Fendel-First Publish: 10/4/2014, 10:30 PM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

Ambassadors to the United Nations from no fewer than 32 countries have asked that Yom Kippur be recognized as an official UN holiday.The UN currently marks 10 holidays, but none of them are Jewish. Among the recognized holidays are Christmas and Good Friday (Christian) and Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha (Muslim).The 32 ambassadors wrote a letter to the General Assembly this past July, JNS.org reports, requesting that Yom Kippur – an annual day with a "universal" message – be added to the list.The letter described the messages of Yom Kippur as follows: “Every person’s deeds are weighed on the heavenly scales of justice and the blessings of the coming year are determined by the good deeds performed in the service of others." The ambassadors wrote that these messages deserve to be marked by the United Nations.The idea was first launched by Israeli Ambassador to the UN Ron Prosor this past May. He sent his own letter to his 192 UN ambassadorial colleagues, asking them to join Israel’s campaign to have the holiday recognized. This would not only "upgrade" the status of the Jewish Day of Atonement internationally, but would also allow Jewish UN employees to have a day off on the holy day.Several major Jewish organizations and leaders are also advocating for the cause. B’nai B’rith International Executive Vice President Daniel S. Mariaschin co-wrote a New York Times op-ed in favor of the campaign in August. The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations and the World Jewish Congress have also come out in favor.Appropriately, a key prayer in the Yom Kippur liturgy states, "Place Your fear, our G-d, upon all Your creations… and all should be in awe of You… Let them all become one union to do Your will whole-heartedly."

Yom Kippur Ends; Preparations for Sukkot Begin-Hundreds of thousands of Jews attended prayer services in synagogues and fasted on the Day of Atonement.By Gil Ronen-First Publish: 10/4/2014, 7:14 PM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

Hundreds of thousands of Jews attended prayer services in synagogues in Israel and fasted on the Yom Kippur, Day of Atonement. According to polls held in previous years, the proportion of Israeli Jews who fast on Yom Kippur is between 65% and 75%.For the less religiously observant Israelis, the day is one spent with the family and with books, on which there is no television or internet, and no traffic on the streets except for children on bicycles.Preparations are now beginning for the Sukkot holiday, which begins Wednesday evening. The coming days will see thousands of sukkot – improvised huts with palm fronds and other leafy branches as roofing – being erected from Eilat to the northern tip of the Golan, throughout the Promised Land.The Tzohar Rabbis organization conducted about 250 prayer quorums on Yom Kippur, with the participation of over 40,000 people.

Sweden breaks EU ranks to recognise Palestine-03.10.14 @ 18:49-EUOBSERVER-By Andrew Rettman

BRUSSELS - The new left-wing government in Sweden has promised to recognise Palestine, amid EU criticism of Israel’s latest settlement expansion.The Swedish PM, Stefan Lofven, made the pledge at his inauguration speech in parliament on Friday (3 October).“The conflict between Israel and Palestine can only be solved by a two-state solution, negotiated in accordance with international law. It must guarantee both the Palestinians and Israelis' legitimate demands for national sovereignty and security”, he said.“A two-state solution requires mutual recognition and a will to peaceful co-existence. Sweden will therefore recognise the state of Palestine”.The step is the first ever by a sitting member of the EU.Six former Communist EU countries, as well as Cyprus and Malta, recognised Palestine in the 1980s before they joined the European Union.But their pre-EU policies have little meaning today: When Palestine asked the UN in 2012 to recognise it as an “observer state” the Czech Republic was the only EU country which voted No despite recognising its sovereignty in 1988.Fourteen others voted in favour, while the rest abstained in a sign of ongoing division in the bloc.Lofven’s announcement caught both Swedish and EU diplomats by surprise.A Swedish source told this website it “marks a really big shift in the Social-Democratic party”. An EU contact said Palestine has stepped up its “lobbying campaign” in Europe: “They had hoped that France would take the step after [Palestinian] president Abbas visited Paris last month, but this didn’t happen”.The Swedish move came the same day the EU published a statement criticising Israel’s plan to build thousands of new settler homes in East Jerusalem.The EU communique used forceful language - “condemned” - and said “development of relations between the EU and Israel will depend on the latter's engagement towards a lasting peace”.Some analysts saw it as a sign of impending action.But the EU contact said it is not. “The wording is not new and was taken from recent [EU] Council conclusions”, he said.The European Commission is currently drafting a code for EU retail labels on settler exports, but the work is still ongoing.It recently banned exports of settler milk and poultry products saying Israeli food safety authorities, which certify the goods, have no jurisdiction in Palestine. But this is part of a tidying-up process of existing EU law rather than a political sanction.The new settlements mark the first expansion in East Jerusalem for more than 10 years.The EU source said one set of settler homes, in Silwan, is “very sensitive” because it is in the Holy Basin - a part of the old city which hosts Jewish and Muslim sacred sites.A second bloc, in Givat Hamatos, “greatly diminishes” prospects of a two-state solution because it helps enclose Jerusalem, which is claimed by both sides as their capital, in a ring of Jewish-only suburbs.

Netanyahu to Sweden: Unilateral Moves Won't Work-PM Netanyahu responds to Sweden's announcement it would recognize "Palestine", says unilateral moves will not bring peace.By Hezki Ezra-First Publish: 10/6/2014, 1:15 AM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu had a message for Sweden on Sunday, a day after Sweden’s Prime Minister said his country would recognize the “state of Palestine.”Netanyahu clarified that unilateral actions will only reduce the chances of reaching a peace agreement with the Palestinian Authority (PA)."Unilateral measures are contrary to agreements. They will not bring peace closer, they only move it further away, he said, adding, "An agreement will only be achieved in negotiations that will ensure Israel's national interests and, first and foremost, the security of Israeli citizens.”Sweden’s announcement on Saturday raised the ire of Israel and the United States, and Israel said it would summon Sweden's ambassador to Israel over the move.On Sunday, however, Sweden effectively retracted the statement from Saturday."The prime minister said that the conflict between Israel and Palestine can be solved through the two-state solution, by negotiations in accordance with the principles of international law,” the Swedish Embassy in Israel said in a statement.The solution “must guarantee the legitimate demands of both Palestinians and Israelis, to self-determination and security. The two-state solution requires mutual recognition and the will to live together in peace. The prime minister summed up by saying that as a result, Sweden would recognize the Palestinian state,” the statement added.

Netanyahu: Criticism of Construction is Against American Values-In CBS interview, Prime Minister Netanyahu says he is "baffled" by U.S. condemnation of Israeli plans to build in Jerusalem.By Ben Ariel-First Publish: 10/6/2014, 3:45 AM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said in an interview which aired Sunday on CBS that the White House’s rebuke of Israeli construction in Jerusalem goes “against American values”.In the interview, which was recorded on Thursday and of which excerpts were quoted by The Associated Press (AP), Netanyahu said he did not accept restrictions on where Jews could live, and said that Jerusalem’s Arabs and Jews should be able to buy homes wherever they want.He said he was “baffled” by the American condemnation.“It’s against the American values. And it doesn’t bode well for peace,” Netanyahu told CBS. “The idea that we’d have this ethnic purification as a condition for peace, I think it’s anti-peace.”The recently backlash against Israel is mainly over a plan to build 2,610 new homes in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Givat Hamatos.The housing units were slated for construction since 2012 and were given final approval last week.State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki criticized the move, using unusually harsh language in doing so.She said the step would send a “troubling message” and added the construction would “poison the atmosphere not only with the Palestinians but also with the very Arab governments with which Prime Minister Netanyahu said he wanted to build relations.”Netanyahu later fired back at the United States’ criticism, telling NBC News' Andrea Mitchell that the U.S. should study the facts before it criticizes Israel over its construction."I think the important thing is to just get the facts right. I mean start with the facts," he told Mitchell.Psaki later rejected Netanyahu’s claims, saying, “I think we have our information clear, and we responded to the facts on the ground.”The White House declined to comment on Netanyahu’s statements in the CBS interview, noted AP.In the same interview, Netanyahu warned that the “Islamic State” (ISIS), Hamas and Iran are locked in a competition to become the dominant Islamist power in the Middle East, which threatens both the United States and Israel."ISIS has got to be defeated because it's doing what all these militant Islamists are trying to do. They all want to first dominate their part of the Middle East, and then go on for their twisted idea of world domination," he said."The difference between ISIS and Hamas and ISIS and Iran and so on is they all agree that the world should be an Islamist hill, but ... each of them wants to be the king of the hill," he added."They want to accumulate enough power to then carry out their mad ambitions," said Netanyahu.The Israeli prime minister also warned in the interview about what he believes are the dangers of making a deal on nuclear capabilities with Iran."This is the greatest terrorist regime in the world. And we don't want them to have the ultimate weapon of terror, which is nuclear weapons. My fear is that they would get the ability to enrich enough uranium for a bomb in a very short time, weeks, months, and that's the deal that I hope is not signed," Netanyahu said.He said that such a deal would be bad for both the U.S. and Israel because Iran will not allow inspectors into the state and will exploit a time of crisis around the world to enrich enough material for a bomb that can be taken out of Iran by ship."I think it would endanger the future of our common civilization," he said of Iran, or a power like ISIS, gaining a nuclear weapon."The greatest danger that I see from these militant Islamists is that they will marry their mad ideologies to weapons of mass death. That is a threat not only to my people, the Jewish people and the Jewish state of Israel, but to your people. They view us as one because of our tolerant societies, whom they think is weak and corrupt," he said.

Over One Million People Visit Western Wall Over High Holidays-Huge crowds visit Jewish holy site in ten days between Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur.By Haim Lev and Tova Dvorin-First Publish: 10/5/2014, 3:38 PM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

More than a million people visited the Western Wall to ask for Divine mercy and forgiveness during the ten-day High Holiday period between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, it was announced Sunday.At its peak, over 100,000 people - from across Israel and around the globe - attended the holy site in one night alone: during selichot prayers on Yom Kippur Eve.The central selichot prayer was attended by both Sephardic Chief Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef and Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi David Lau. An additional assembly started by Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef zt"l includes a mass prayer rally for selichot at the Wall, followed by a ceremony to annul "evil decrees" for the upcoming year. The ceremony attracted at least 100,000 people as well. The large turnout is significant for Israel, which has suffered a fall in tourism following the Gaza war in July and August.The Israeli economy emerged relatively unscathed, however, and tourism figures look likely to bounce back. Israel has seen a record number of travelers to the Jewish state for the holidays, with an estimated 1.4 million people due to visit between Rosh Hashanah and the holiday of Sukkot.

PA Ambassador: If Our UN Bid is Rejected, We'll Go to ICC-PA's UN ambassador: We will join the ICC if the Security Council refuses to set a deadline for Israel to withdraw from Judea and Samaria.-By Ben Ariel-First Publish: 10/3/2014, 6:15 AM-ISRAELNATIONALNEWS

The Palestinian Authority’s (PA) UN ambassador, Riyad Mansour, threatened on Thursday that his government will join the International Criminal Court (ICC) if the UN Security Council refuses to set a deadline for Israel to withdraw from Judea and Samaria.According to The Associated Press (AP), Mansour said the PA turned to the Security Council "to force Israel to negotiate in good faith the end of occupation within a time frame."He added that PA hopes the Security Council will adopt a draft resolution, the contents of which were exposed Wednesday, that would set a deadline of November 2016 for an Israeli pullout from Judea, Samaria, Gaza and eastern Jerusalem, with a goal of establishing an independent Palestinian state living side by side with Israel."But if this additional door of peace is closed before us, then we will not only join the ICC to seek accountability," Mansour said in an interview with AP."We will join other treaties and agencies" to build evidence "that we exist as a nation, we exist as a state although the land of our state is under occupation," he declared.After the collapse the last U.S.-led talks earlier this year, Mansour said the Palestinians believe it is "futile" to go back to "the old-style negotiations that led to failure."He told AP that the Palestinians hope that under Security Council pressure, Israel will negotiate by agreeing on final status issues, starting with setting borders based on lines predating the 1967 Six Day War, with minor adjustments. If the council resolution is vetoed and the PA joins the International Criminal Court, it would also open the door to war crime charges against Palestinian Arabs, but Mansour told AP that PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has made clear that the Palestinians are prepared to be held accountable by the world's war crimes tribunal for any wrongdoing."But it is obvious that the one who is extremely afraid of this option is the Israelis, and those who are protecting the Israelis," the ambassador said.The PA has been threatening for years that it will sue Israel at the ICC. The PA’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Riyad al-Maliki, recently met with ICC officials and inquired about the legal procedures necessary for the PA to join the ICC and sign the Rome Statute, thus allowing it to take action against possible Israeli war crimes in Gaza.That move came after the PA requested to join 15 international agencies in breach of the conditions of the peace talks that were going on with Israel at that time.A senior PA official recently said, however, that Abbas had blocked the initiative to turn to the ICC in order to push forward a new peace talks bid.
