EARTH WORSHIP

DEUTERONOMY 17:3-4
3 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:

2 KINGS 23:5
5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

Analysis: Ontario green energy plan feels the heat
Reuters By Nicole Mordant | JULY 22,11

VANCOUVER (Reuters) - An ambitious plan to feed renewable energy into the power grid of Canada's economic heartland is under fire and could flame out altogether in the autumn, just two years after its launch.Ontario's opposition Progressive Conservative party, who are leading in the polls ahead of an October 6 election, has vowed to scrap a provincial program that pays above-market rates to producers of energy from sources such as the sun and wind.The goal is to generate 13 percent of Ontario's energy from renewable sources by 2018 and zero from coal by late 2014. The government says the clean energy sector has created more than 13,000 jobs and is on track to reach 50,000 by end-2012.Critics say the ratepayer-funded program is an expensive experiment that is increasing costs for consumers.Even if the so-called feed-in tariff, or FIT, program dodges the political ax, it remains riddled with problems. Its roll-out has sputtered under the weight of bureaucracy, too few staffers to manage the crush of applications and legal challenges, industry players say.It is like opening up a great restaurant and just having one waiter and then blaming it on the people wanting to come and eat there, said Paco Caudet, general manager of Siliken Canada, a unit of Spanish solar panel manufacturer Siliken.We did expect some hiccups and uncertainties. But it is just way beyond what we expected. ... It is a great lack of planning,Caudet told Reuters.

Siliken opened an Ontario factory in May, two years after the provincial government led by the Liberal Party unveiled the Green Energy Act, intended to create thousands of clean energy jobs while the province shuts down coal-fired power stations.Five months later, in October 2009, it launched the FIT program, modeled on programs in Germany, Spain and Italy that turned those nations into big producers of renewable energy.Over the past two years, the province has signed or offered 21,000 FIT contracts to small, medium and large clean energy projects and lured investment commitments of C$20 billion ($21.2 billion).

POLITICAL UNCERTAINTY JUST ONE WORRY

The Conservative threat to scrap the program and the biggest investment commitment made under it -- a C$7 billion pledge by South Korea's Samsung C&T -- has rattled the industry even though the party has said it will honor existing contracts.Had the policies been certain and there'd been years to run on them, we would have spent more time developing in Ontario than we did, said Jeff Jenner, chief executive of Sprott Power Corp, a small renewable power producer.For others political uncertainty is less of a worry than practical issues such as the delays in hooking renewable energy systems to the grid. The longer it takes systems to hook up, the slower manufacturers' sales.Hydro One, the utility that manages Ontario's transmission network, earlier this year asked the energy regulator for a six-month exemption from the time requirements for connect small systems to the grid. It said the volume of requests had been well beyond its expectations.Since launching the microFIT program, an adjunct to the FIT scheme for small renewable projects, the Ontario Power Authority, the province's electricity planning agency, has received 27,000 applications as of the end of March.At the end of the first quarter, it had 220 megawatts worth of applications waiting for connection.The resources allocated within Hydro One and the OPA to implement this program are totally insufficient. They are saying the program is over-subscribed, and I am saying it is under-implemented,said Caudet.The OPA said it was working hard to sign up new supply and ensure Ontario has reliable and sustainable electricity.In the last two months alone, we've announced contract offers for over 800 mid-sized FIT projects, and 25 large-scale projects. All told, these project announcements represent over 2,000 MW of clean, renewable energy potential,it said in an emailed statement.Hydro One was not immediately available for comment.A series of unexpected rule changes to the FIT and microFIT programs have also drawn anger from the industry. These include a deep rate cut for small ground-mounted solar systems and a moratorium on the development of offshore wind power in February.

FULL SPEED AHEAD

A central element of the Canadian-born FIT scheme is a made-in-Ontario clause. It stipulates that between 25 percent and 60 percent of the equipment used to set up wind and solar projects must be made in the province.The provision is aimed at boosting jobs in a province whose manufacturing sector took a beating during the North American auto sector's collapse in 2008-2009 and is slowly recovering.It's under attack on several fronts. Japan, for one, has complained to the World Trade Organization that the measure is protectionist. A wind energy company owned by U.S. oil tycoon T. Boone Pickens is also threatening legal action under the North American Free Trade Agreement.Despite the challenges, the Ontario government is pressing ahead with its green energy plans, announcing new ventures and jobs almost weekly, partly as it enters electioneering mode.The biggest threat to the success of clean energy in Ontario and the creation of thousands of jobs is the ill-conceived pledges by opposition politicians, Ontario Energy Minister Brad Duguid said in an emailed statement.Some companies remain hopeful about the future of the industry not least because the Conservatives have said they want renewable energy to be part of Ontario's electricity mix, just not through the award of overly generous contracts.
We will replace the FIT program with a competitive and transparent process that gets energy for Ontario families at a price they can afford,Conservative Party energy critic John Yakabuski said in an email.(Editing by Frank McGurty)

U.S., Canada power grids ready for heatwave
ReutersBy Scott DiSavino | JULY 22,11

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Power grid operators in the U.S. Northeast and Midwest and Ontario, Canada, said they have enough power resources to meet expected high demand on Thursday as consumers crank up their air conditioners to escape a brutal heatwave.
Power usage this week has already been higher than the grids expected for this summer and set a new demand record in the Midwest but was not expected to break records in the U.S. Northeast or Ontario set in 2006 before the economic recession, the grids said.In the U.S. Midwest, the Midwest ISO said demand for power on Wednesday reached 103,975 megawatts, breaking the 12-state region's previous record of 103,246 MW set in July 2006.Power companies across the region said they had enough electricity to meet the demand, but warned heavy usage could stress some power lines and generating facilities, which could leave some customers in the dark temporarily.The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) issued excessive heat warnings and watches for cities from the Midwest to the East Coast with temperatures expected to top 100 degrees F in many places.The mercury in New York City, the biggest metropolitan center in the United States, was expected to reach 100 degrees F, which matches the record set on this day in 1991. The humidity meanwhile will make it feel more like 108 degrees, according to weather forecaster AccuWeather.com.Thunderstorms on Friday will break the heatwave in the Midwest, while the East Coast will have to wait until Sunday for temperatures to return to near normal levels in the upper 80s and low 90s, AccuWeather said.

CLOSE BUT NO RECORD

PJM, which operates the biggest power grid in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic and Midwest, forecast electric usage would peak at 154,300 MW on Thursday, which is much higher than the 149,000 MW peak the grid forecast for this summer but still below the 158,448 MW peak record set in August 2006.New York ISO, which operates the state's grid, forecast the peak would top 33,200 MW Thursday, which is higher than the 32,700 MW peak the grid forecast for the summer but still a little shy of the 33,939 MW peak record set in August 2006.In New England, ISO New England forecast demand this week would peak on Friday at about 27,400 MW, which is just below the grid's 27,500 MW peak forecast for the summer and the 28,130 MW peak record set in August 2006.In Ontario, the grid operator forecast demand Thursday would top 25,900 MW, which is much higher than the 23,500 MW peak the grid forecast for this year summer but still below the 27,005 MW peak record set in August 2006.One megawatt powers about 1,000 homes in the United States and Canada.Several utilities, including New York power company Consolidated Edison, have already asked customers to conserve power on Thursday to make it easier to keep the lights on and air conditioners humming for everyone.Some utilities and energy service companies have also activated their demand response programs, which pay customers to reduce usage during peak demand times when needed.Customers can reduce their power usage by turning up the air conditioner thermostat, turning off lights, elevators and other electrical equipment, and for those with backup generators on site, producing their own electricity.(Reporting by Scott DiSavino; Editing by Alden Bentley)

The absurdity of attacks on Walid Shoebat: An editorial opinion July 21, 2011 By Lee Kaplan By Lee Kaplan, analyst and commuications director

As more and more evidence emerges to prove CNN did a smear job against Walid Shoebat certain individuals persist in trying to discredit this man by claiming he lied about his terrorist background. The simple truth is Walid has not lied about his background and has been providing US law enforcement intelligence information for years that is valued by those in the know.If you want somethng to pass the sniff test, you should know that Walid Shoebat has been denied admittance to Israel or the Palestinian Authority and Canada for years because of his background in terrorism. If, as Shoebat’s opponents would claim he’s a phony or liar, then why would these governments deny him entry? Government intelligence agencies are privy to internal information that the average American never sees. For Walid to be denied entry to Israel he would have to have some type of record as a terrrorist that the amateur sleuths, bloggers and agents for CAIR do not have.Israel admits every creep from the ISM, even those who admit to working with and for terror groups abroad. A case in point is Huwaida Arraf, a co-founder of the ISM and flotillas and Paul LaRudee, another co-founder of the flotillas. Canada denied admittance to Walid after CAIR did a campaign to bar him from the county because they complained he was an ex-terrorist wanting to enter, and despite the fact he was entering to lecture against terrorism.Walid once told me.When I wasw a terrorist everyone called me a freedom fighter. Now that I speak out against terrorism and in support of Israel they scream I am a terrorist and should be barred from speaking. Go figure.Yes. Go figure.

The best example of the value of Walid’s work is the fact that Mosab Yousef is still conning left-wing Jewish groups that he is pro-Israel and then getting into US churches. A major controversy right now is Jewish funding of something called the Olive Tree Initiative in the UC college system which is also using California taxpayer money to send college kids to the West Bank to listen to anti-Israel propaganda dispensed by ISM activists and Arab speakers like PFLP supporter Mazen Qumsiyeh.Walid grew up with Qumsiyeh and even participated with him in lynching an Israeli soldier once.Then there is the case of Knesset member Ibrahim Sarsur. An Arab-Israeli parliamentarian, he lectures students in the OTI program that he is a loyal Israeli citizen. One problem: Walid translated a video of Sarsur speaking to Arab children inside an Israeli state school where he told them to grow up to kill the Jews and destroy Israel, that Jerusalem would be the next Caliphate.Regarding Yousef, the Son of Hamas, who Jewish groups in America still won’t recognize as no friend of Israel, but someone designed to get into the churches and urge peace by Israel no longer being a Jewish state, Walid translated him on Al Jazeera television. Asked by a caller on a talk show that if the caller had knowledge of a planned attack on a busload of Israelis, if he should contact the Israeli police, Yousef told him absolutely not, that that would betray the Palestinian revolution. Again, this was in Arabic and Walid was the only one who revealed this and translated it. The PLO/Hamas role in trying to de-legitimize Israel in the American mind includes getting Americans to thnk peace will be at hand if Israel isn’t a Jewish state but a new state of Palestine dominated by Arabs and particularly Muslims. To achieve this goal the PLO even set up SABEEL which is a Christian Arab group designed to use replacement theoology. It tours US churches getting Christians to accuse the Jews of Christian flight from Bethlehem when it is really due to Muslim attempts at hegemony in the region.So, Walid allegedly doesn’t have his story straight about bombing a bank 35 years ago where nobody was killed? He allegedly didn’t spend two weeks in prison for terrorist activities? This too, is usually second-hand information that is not true. Would these people prefer though that he had killed people before they would allow him to lecture law enforcement about terrorists and the mindset they grew up in, such as he did himself? The argument is nonsense.

Finally, our law enforcement officials are not total fools. If a guy with no real information or knowledge deigned to lecture them and charge fees for it, they would never use him. Walid was in fact asked for a repeat visit to South Dakota by Homeland Security because those who attended his lecture before believed his information helped them in their jobs. The hysteria coming from Walid’s enemies, usually people with personal grudges or from the Hamas front group CAIR should not be taken seriously by those of us concerned about fighting the War on Terror and protecting the people of the United States.There are so-called intelligence writers on the Web who really know little of what they speak about and/or only express opinions. Walid Shoebat is one whose experience growing up in a culture imbued with terrorism, someone who was recruited early on but had an epiphany and left it, is worth listening to. I urge anyone who questions this to read Walid’s books or visit his website at www.shoebat.com . CAIR should have been closed down years ago and the CNN report only shows the risk we take in allowing these militant Islamic front groups to continue to lobby within our shores.

Euro leaders agree second Greece bailout and overhaul of rescue fund HONOR MAHONY 21.07.2011 @ 23:21 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Following weeks of political and market turbulence, eurozone leaders on Thursday undertook radical steps to safeguard the single currency agreeing the beginnings of a European Monetary Fund and a fresh bailout for Greece.
With the one-day emergency summit representing something of a make-or-brake gathering for the 17-nation eurozone, leaders were quick to underline the far-reaching and credible nature of the agreement.For the first time, the politics and the markets are coming together, said European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso, with markets having to date doubted the fundamental commitment of leaders to saving the eurozone.EU council president Herman Van Rompuy said the deal proved we will not waver in defence of our common currency.Under the agreement, Greece is to get a fresh bailout, but with a lower interest rate (around 3.5%) and with a minimum of 15 years to pay back the loans.The total official financing will amount to an estimated 109 billion euro, says the final agreement.Pushed by Germany, the private sector will also be involved but eurozone leaders stressed several times that private sector contribution will be voluntary and will not be part of any potential future bailouts for other countries.There remains a question mark over whether rating agencies will view the deal as a default, having previously said they take a dim view of involving the private sector.German chancellor Angela Merkel indicated it was a risk she is willing to take. We all know rating agencies are going to take a close look at this. I can't prejudge their rating. But I think that for markets it's important to achieve sustainability and for that it's very important to have private sector involved.

European monetary fund

Eurozone leaders also attempted to put out potential future fires by agreeing an overhaul of the eurozone's €440bn bailout fund so that it can act pre-emptively.
Under the deal, which will have to be ratified by national parliaments, the fund will be entitled to help out countries with credit line before they get to the stage of needing long-term aid and recapitalise banks through loans to governments. This aid could also be supplied to countries not in a bailout programme, something that is not the case currently.We have agreed to create the beginnings of a European Monetary Fund, said French president Nicolas Sarkozy.Merkel, who forced Paris to back down on a proposed bank levy in return for giving new powers to the rescue fund, said the move was historic.What we are doing now is an example for deeper integration - handing over and transferring more competences to EU institutions. This is a historic day.Barroso, who on the eve of the summit said the history would harshly judge the leaders if they failed to reach a deal, urged them to defend and implement it with determination.Greek prime minister George Papandreou said the deal will mean (a) lightening of the burden on the Greek people whom he referred to as proud and industrious.While European stocks rallied when draft conclusions were leaked earlier in the day, some commentators were already highly critical of the deal.Sony Kapoor, managing director of policy group Re-Define Europe, said: EU leaders have missed the boat, yet again.The leaders pay lip service to the need for growth and investment in Greece but this is no Marshall Plan. The debt overhang will hurt growth and investment even as EIB and other EU funds seek to stimulate it.He also said the changes to the rescue fund were based on excessive conditionality with Merkel stressing several times that the enhanced fund will need unanimity from member states in order to act.

European Central Bank chief does not exclude Greek default VALENTINA POP Today JULY 22,11 @ 09:40 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - European Central Bank chief Jean Claude Trichet on Thursday (21 July) said that he could not prejudge if ratings agencies would declare a selective default of Greek bonds, but noted that eurozone leaders have prepared for that event with €55bnn for bank recapitalisations and improving the creditworthiness of Greek government debt.Admitting that eurozone leaders had disregarded his advice on avoiding a selective default for Greece or any other credit event, Trichet however stressed that the leaders prepared themselves with the exact tools he recommended.He also insisted that the red line the ECB had set for private sector involvement in the second Greek bailout - that it be voluntary, not compulsory - had been respected by eurozone leaders.It would be the first time in the history of the eurozone that one member country defaults, prompting government assistance and forcing the ECB to buy up bonds with no market value, but secured by the EU bailout fund. Despite the leaders' reassurances that it is a one-off, this would create a precedent and may further spook markets when it comes to other euro-countries' debt and economic troubles.At the closing press conference, the outgoing central banker put a brave face on the situation with his institution having been repeatedly adopted measures it had previously rejected or warned against.We've said from the very beginning: It is you [leaders] who are responsible. But they've also ignored our advice when they didn't respect the Stability and Growth Pact or when we had called for stronger economic co-ordination and measures to boost competitiveness, he said.On the eve of the special eurozone summit, Trichet went to Berlin where German chancellor Angela Merkel had already been debating for hours with French President Nicolas Sarkozy on having banks involved in a second bailout for Greece.

The meeting lasted for another three hours, but in the end, Trichet accepted that private banks will be involved and that the ECB may have to buy up Greek bonds declared as defaulted by ratings agencies, as long as they are backed up by stronger and sound collateral from the EU's bailout fund, the EFSF.And in case of a 'selective' Greek default, eurozone leaders have foreseen two measures recommended by the ECB, sid Trichet referring to €20bln to be pumped into ailing banks and €35bn for improving the creditworthiness of Greek government debt.He said that eurozone leaders stressed clearly that the private sector involvement was a one-off due to exceptional conditions in Greece, and that this was as much as we could get so as to calm markets' concerns regarding similar measures for other bailed out countries, such as Portugal and Ireland.The decision to give the EFSF more flexibility in order to prevent contagion and help out countries before they even have to ask for a bailout was also strongly promoted by the ECB, as well as the growth-boosting measures for Greece and technical assistance from the EU and the IMF.But in the end the main issue is implementation and hard work done by Greece, Trichet said, once more stressing the need to for the Mediterranean country to sell its state-owned companies and assets, a programme Athens estimates to be worth €50bn.Privatisation is key and it is a big card in its hands, there isn't any other country with such big assets,the Frenchman said.Implementation as desired by the ECB still has a rocky way ahead, as the country's trade unions are carrying out one protest after another against the austerity measures and deregulation efforts of the Greek government.

For the fourth day in a row, Greek taxi drivers on Thursday blocked ports and airports on the islands of Crete and Corfu - both Meccas for tourists from all over Europe.The cab drivers are fighting a licensing overhaul which would make it easier for newcomers to compete on the market, a measure which is part of the reform package agreed in the EU-IMF bailout conditions.Tourism makes up 16 percent of Greece's GDP and the government had counted on a 10 percent increase in revenues from this sector this year.

Ireland and Portugal get lower interest rates on bailouts VALENTINA POP 21.07.2011 @ 23:49 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Ireland and Portugal on Thursday (21 July) were given longer deadlines and lower interest rates to pay back their loans under their respective EU-IMF bailouts, but eurozone leaders made it clear that no private investors will be involved in their rescue, as it is the case with Greece.Similarly to Greece, both Ireland and Portugal will be given 15 to 30 years to repay their loans, as opposed to the current 7.5 year-deadline and their interest rate will be lowered to around 3.5 percent.Leaders however drew a clear distinction between the one-off private sector involvement in the Greek case and the other eurozone countries under an EU-IMF bailout, an attempt to stem the downgrading spiral by ratings agencies that both Ireland and Portugal have been drawn into.Saluting the robust response of the eurozone leaders, Portuguese Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho said that the new deal will allow Portugal and Ireland to see increased the conditions for success and calm markets.The recent downgrade to 'junk' status by Moody's ratings agency - both for Portugal and Ireland - was made because the agency feared the private sector would be involved in other bailouts as well.It was very important that the eurozone countries agreed that the Greek situation is unique and has no parallel in any other European country, like Portugal and Ireland, Coelho pointed out.Meanwhile, Irish Prime minister Enda Kenny welcomed having obtained the same loan conditions as his Greek and Portuguese colleagues.The conclusions of today's meeting of leaders mark a significant improvement in the programme of support and ultimately it reduces the cost of our debt, thereby lightening the burden on the taxpayer, Kenny told reporters at the end of the meeting.He estimated that the lowering of the interest rate by two percent should be worth the order of between €600 to €800 million a year.

Despite reassurances by Kenny that Ireland did not to make any concessions on its low tax corporate rates, the final conclusions of eurozone leaders note Ireland's willingness to participate constructively (...) in the structured discussions on tax policy issues.To International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde, the crucial element agreed on Thursday was that eurozone leaders decided to prop up countries under existing bailout programmes until they regain market access.This would open the way for further financial assistance down the line, possibly under a standby loan that the EU bailout fund would be able to give out under its new powers, modelled on the IMF.

Dora weakens to Category 1 hurricane off Mexico
JULY 22,11

MIAMI – Hurricane Dora has weakened to a Category 1 storm in the Pacific off Mexico, but nearby coastal areas are still on alert.Its top winds dropped early Friday to 90 mph (150 kph). A Tropical Storm warning was in effect for the southern Baja California peninsula, including resort-dotted Los Cabos.Dora continued to move gradually away from the coast, but waves generated by the hurricane battered shore communities. The foundations of a small lighthouse about 35 miles (60 kilometers) east of Acapulco toppled Wednesday. About 60 thatch-roofed restaurants on beaches in the area, around La Penitas and La Bocana, were damaged or swept away by the storm.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said the center of the hurricane was about 255 miles (415 kilometers) south of Cabo Corrientes.Port authorities in Los Cabos ordered a suspension of boat tours and other tourism services near the natural stone Arch, the city's landmark. Civil protection officials were preparing four shelters at elementary schools in case of any flooding.The fourth hurricane of the eastern Pacific season was moving northwest at about 9 mph (15 kph) and was forecast to stay offshore. Forecasters said it was expected to continue weakening Friday.In the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Cindy posed no threat to land as it moved eastward even farther out to sea. Tropical Storm Bret has weakened to a tropical depression as it moved away from the Bahamas and stayed well off the U.S. Atlantic coast.

Bangladesh floods kill 6, displace thousands
By FARID HOSSAIN, Associated Press – Fri Jul 22, 3:12 am ET

DHAKA, Bangladesh – Floods triggered by monsoon rains in southern Bangladesh have killed 6 people, displaced more than 10,000 and washed away shrimp farms close to the Bay of Bengal, authorities said Friday.The region's Matamuhuri and Bakhkhali rivers overflowed after five days of heavy rain and inundated about 200 villages, chief government administrator Zainul Bari said. The displaced have taken shelter in school buildings in the flood-hit district of Cox's Bazar, he said.He said flood waters damaged shrimp farms and paddy crops in the affected areas.Bari said government relief workers are handing dried food and clean drinking water to the displaced.Also Friday another government official Shafiq Mia said six flood-related deaths have been reported in the area, 296 kilometers (185 miles) south of Dhaka.

Dhaka's Ittefaq newspaper reported that flood waters swamped parts of a highway in the area disrupting road transportation. Many marooned people are using boats to go about.Monsoon floods are common in Bangladesh, a tropical delta nation of 150 million people.

OZONE DEPLETION JUDGEMENT ON THE EARTH DUE TO SIN

ISAIAH 30:26-27
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold,(7X OR 7-DEGREES) as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people,(ISRAEL) and healeth the stroke of their wound.
27 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

MATTHEW 24:21-22,29
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake (ISRAELS SAKE) those days shall be shortened (Daylight hours shortened)
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

REVELATION 16:7-9
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

Massive, deadly heat wave spreads from Midwest to East By Barbara Goldberg – Thu Jul 21, 7:35 pm ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Sweating crowds on the East Coast and in the Midwest flocked to waterfronts and urban cooling centers on Thursday to escape a massive heat wave that has killed at least 22 people this week.The National Weather Service issued excessive heat warnings for wide swaths of the country's mid-section and East Coast, saying the combined heat and humidity could spike the heat index or real feel of the warmth to 115 degrees through Saturday.By early Thursday afternoon in New York City, the thermometer hit 91 but it felt more like 112, according to Accuweather.com.

Other cities watching their local heat indexes rise into the triple digits because of the oppressive mix of high temperatures and humidity included -- among others -- Tulsa, St. Louis, Buffalo, and Washington, D.C., according to the weather service.In Chicago, where a five-day heat wave in 1995 killed hundreds, the city endured a fifth consecutive day of abnormally high temperatures with the heat index hitting 110 in the early afternoon -- and forecasters warned the heat wave could continue into the weekend.In Oklahoma, where the heat has exacerbated a severe drought, Governor Mary Fallin said she planned to ease commercial vehicle restrictions to speed delivery of hay and other feed to cattle whose grazing areas have been destroyed by the weather.Fallin said she would amend an existing drought-related emergency declaration she issued earlier this year to allow hay-haulers to operate bigger trucks with heavier loads on the state's roads.We have cattle that are starving, Fallin told Reuters,and we have certain areas of the state where we need to get the hay delivered to the farmers and the ranchers and the cattlemen.With the promise of refreshing ocean breezes, Boston's whale-watching ships and high speed tourist boats sold out their trips by mid-morning on Thursday.Cooling centers in Richmond, Virginia, and New York City welcomed overheated residents and a truck labeled Water Fountain on the Go cruised Manhattan streets, offering to refill empty water bottles to keep residents hydrated.Con Edison expected scattered outages in coming days amid an anticipated all-time high in electrical demand in New York, said utility spokesman John Micksid.Unhealthy smog levels triggered by the heat were reported in Chicago, where residents were asked by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to reduce polluting activities such as idling cars and mowing lawns.By the weekend the heat was expected to cover nearly 50 percent of the country and impact nearly half the population, according to AccuWeather.com forecaster Mary Yoon.What makes this heat wave so impressive is the pure size and longevity, said Yoon.

Through the rest of this week and into the weekend at least 15 states starting from the Southern Plains and Midwest and much of the Northeast will witness 90 degree plus temperatures with high humidity, she said.Longstanding records in Philadelphia and other cities may melt away by Friday, when the mercury was expected to spike, according to meteorologist Meghan Evans of AccuWeather.com.Do not take this threat lightly,the NWS warned in a statement on its website, noting the extreme temperatures are particularly dangerous for the elderly and the very young.The length of this heat wave will pose a very real and dangerous health risk to these at-risk groups and those that do not have access to air conditioning.The low pressure system that barreled east was expected to bring powerful thunderstorms with hail to New England, forecasters said.In the central United States, where the high temperatures have killed nearly two dozen already, more deaths were tied to the heat.

An elderly woman whose body was found in her bedroom in St. Louis, where a working air conditioner had not been turned on despite 99 degree temperatures, was determined on Wednesday to have died of heat stroke.Similar causes of death were reported Thursday in Kansas City, Missouri, where a woman in her early 80s died, and in Hutchinson, Kansas, where three elderly people were found dead in their separate homes on Wednesday.Of those who died in Hutchinson, one had a ceiling fan and another, a 76-year-old man, an air conditioner.He had an air-conditioning unit in the window but didn't use it because he didn't want to pay the electric bill, said Hutchinson Police Sergeant Thad Pickard.Two people died from the heat in an Illinois county near the Mississippi River on Wednesday, St. Clair County Coroner Rick Stone said on Thursday.They were identified as Willie Gill, 72, of East St. Louis, Illinois, whose body was found dead of heat stroke in a ditch near his home; and Kevin Miller, 51, of Belleville, Illinois, who was found dead of a heat-related heart attack on his front porch, which faced westward toward the setting sun.
Temperatures in the area, which is about 15 miles east of St. Louis, reached 100 degrees on Wednesday and again on Thursday.(Additional reporting by Bruce Olson, Lauren Keiper, Kevin Murphy, Karin Matz, Colleen Jenkins and James B. Kelleher; Editing by Greg McCune)

Israeli PM turns to Arab TV in call for peace
APBy ARON HELLER - Associated Press | JULY 22,11

JERUSALEM (AP) — With a September deadline looming, Israel's prime minister turned to the Arabic media Thursday for the first time since taking office two years ago in an attempt to lure the Palestinians back to peace talks, saying everything is on the table.Benjamin Netanyahu's interview with the Al-Arabiya satellite channel reflects Israeli concerns over Palestinian plans to seek U.N. recognition of their independence this fall. But it also highlights Netanyahu's new strategy of engaging directly with the Arab public.Netanyahu has fielded questions from Arabs before on YouTube and even made a recorded plea to Arab viewers to submit questions. But the face-to-face Al-Arabiya interview is his first of its kind. Netanyahu's office called the move the beginning of a new era and promised more such interviews in the near future.The interview, which aired Thursday evening, comes as Israel is scrambling to counter the Palestinian U.N. initiative this fall. Israel fiercely opposes the move, saying a Palestinian state should be formed through negotiations and not by unilateral steps.Peace negotiations have been stalled since 2008, and the Palestinians have refused to negotiate while Israel continues to build homes in Jewish settlements.Although the vote will be largely symbolic, the Palestinians hope to isolate Israel and put pressure on it to make concessions.In the interview, Netanyahu says he is willing to negotiate anywhere and with anyone who accepts Israel's right to exist.Everything is on the table. But we need to get to the table, Netanyahu said.I'm prepared to negotiate with President Abbas directly for peace between our two peoples right now. We can do it here in my home in Jerusalem, we can do it in Ramallah, we can do it anywhere,he said.

Netanyahu said he realized he would have to make difficult compromises for peace, but he offered few new details about his plans.The Palestinians seek all of the West Bank and east Jerusalem — areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war — as parts of a future independent state. Netanyahu has said he wants to keep parts of the West Bank, and he opposes any division of Jerusalem.Netanyahu also addressed the regional unrest in Syria and Egypt.You know anything that I say will be used — not against me — but against the process of genuine reform that Syrian people would like to see. We don't intervene in Syria but it does not mean we are not concerned. We'd like the peace and quiet on the Israeli-Syrian border to be maintained and I would like to ultimately, have that turned into a formal peace between Israel and Syria, Netanyahu said. I think the people, the young people of Syria deserve a better future.Netanyahu said he hopes the Arab Spring will result in democracies in the Arab world.If there's genuine democracy in the Arab world, in the Arab countries, then there will be genuine peace. Because a genuine democracy reflects the desires of the people, and most people Arabs, Jews, anyone they don't want their sons and daughters dying on battlefields.He said, If it goes toward an Iranian-style dictatorship, as it did, unfortunately in Iran and in Lebanon, then it's bad. It's bad for the peoples there, but it's also bad for peace.Ofir Gendelman, Netanyahu's spokesman for the Arab media, said Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya was chosen as a conduit for Netanyahu's outreach because it is a professional station that reaches 40 million Arabs. He refused to discuss why Al-Jazeera, the top-rated Arab media outlet, was not selected. Al-Jazeera's coverage has been accused of stirring up anti-Israel sentiment on the Arab street.Gendelman said Netanyahu's office also communicates with the Arab world via Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.There are a lot of issues the prime minister wants to address,he said.The goal of the interview is twofold: to convey the message that he wants to resume negotiations and express via the interview how important Arab public opinion is to him.Israel's most pressing concern at the moment is what happens in September. No one knows exactly how the vote will unfold.The United States opposes the plan and, as one of the five permanent members of the Security Council, could veto a Palestinian membership request and derail the process.

If that happens, the Palestinians could go to the General Assembly and seek recognition there as a nonmember observer state, a largely symbolic nod. Still, widespread support in the General Assembly would signal that a majority of countries support Palestinian statehood in the pre-1967 lines.The Palestinians insist that their U.N. bid does not rule out a return to negotiations.Palestinian leaders have called on their people to take to the streets in nonviolent protests in September and Israeli officials are concerned that these could spiral out of control and set off a new round of fighting.Israeli Cabinet Minister Moshe Yaalon dismissed these concerns Thursday, telling foreign reporters that he can't see any change on the ground after September.He called the unilateral option one of the balloons inflated in the last two years by those who thought we might be threatened.Yaalon, a former military chief, also rejected the argument that the current status quo is untenable.
The situation is not sustainable? It's sustainable. It's not going to be solved in the near future. We can live with it. We can survive with it,he said.

AP Exclusive: Iran prez said pushing for nukes
APBy GEORGE JAHN - Associated Press | JULY 22,11

VIENNA (AP) — Iran's president wants to shed the nation's secrecy and forge ahead openly with developing nuclear weapons but is opposed by the clerical leadership, which is worried about international reaction to such a move, says an intelligence assessment shared with The Associated Press.That view, from a nation with traditionally reliable intelligence from the region, cannot be confirmed and contrasts with assessments by other countries that view Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as relatively moderate on the nuclear issue compared to the country's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.Attempts to interpret Iran's goals are important because as it expands uranium enrichment, it is moving closer to being able to make a nuclear weapon by the day, even as it asserts that it is not interested in such arms and its programs are geared only to making reactor fuel.

A U.S. official cited one assessment he has seen suggesting Ahmadinejad may be more moderate — more open to talks with the international community on resolving nuclear concerns than Khamenei. He asked for anonymity because his information was privileged.But a blunt comment by Ahmadinejad last month raises questions. While repeating that Iran does not want nuclear arms, he openly reinforced its ability to make them, telling Iranian state TV that if we want to make a bomb, we are not afraid of anybody.That defiant statement fits the scenario laid down by the intelligence assessment shared with the AP, depicting Ahmadinejad as wanting to move publicly to develop a nuclear program.Ahmadinejad is pushing to shake free of the restraints Iran has imposed upon itself, and openly push forward to create a nuclear bomb,says the assessment shared with the AP. But Khamenei, whose word is final on nuclear and other issues, wants to progress using secret channels, due to concern about a severe response from the West,says the report.The varying views reflect the difficulties that intelligence agencies face when probing a secretive nation that plays its cards close to its chest. Lines of division are murky. Alliances shift and positions change, leaving governments and private analysts frustrated as they try to nail down Tehran's nuclear end game.They converge, however in noting that recent political divisions between Ahmadinejad and Khamenei have spilled over to encompass Iran's nuclear activities to a greater degree than before.While much about Iran's nuclear program is opaque, the growing capacity — if not the intention — to make weapons is on the record, captured in International Atomic Energy Agency reports documenting the expansion of Iran's enrichment program from its clandestine beginnings more than a decade ago to one that has produced enough material for more than two nuclear bombs.

More recently Iran has begun enriching to higher levels that would lessen the time needed to make weapons-grade material. And its stonewalling of an IAEA probe based on U.S. and other intelligence of secret work on components of a nuclear weapons program is adding to concerns raised by Tehran's refusal to freeze enrichment despite U.N. sanctions.Intelligence reports of tensions between Ahmadinejad and the ruling clerics are in line with other signs showing Ahmadinejad at odds with Khamenei with less than two-years to go into his presidency.In recent months, Ahmadinejad apparently fired — and was forced by Khamenei to reinstate — his interior minister in what some analysts see as a rebuffed attempt by the president to eliminate rivals to candidates he would like to see in positions of power, once his second and last term ends in 2013. That prompted an outburst of public criticism and led rivals in parliament to start proceedings that could in the most extreme case lead to impeachment.Reports of disagreement on nuclear issues predate that dispute, but some officials from member nations of the Vienna-based IAEA see tensions over the future of the nuclear program sharpening.Proliferation expert David Albright of the Institute for Science and International Security says his briefings from European government officials who have seen the latest U.S. intelligence assessment on the Islamic Republic seem to support the assessment shared with the AP that Khamenei is worried about how the world would react to a nuclear-armed Iran.There is a lot of caution in the regime about the implication of building nuclear weapons, says Albright. Asked whether Ahmadinejad or Khamenei have been the most circumspect, he says the implication is that it was the Supreme Leader.
The leadership is worried about starting a nuclear weapons race and worried about the international impact,said Albright, naming reactions from regional powers Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Turkey as that of greatest concern to Tehran. Both Egypt and the Saudis have indicated that they would contemplate acquiring nuclear weapons if Iran had them.

One theory voiced by government officials and private analysts is that Iran might be looking to reach the level just short of making nuclear weapons — but able to do so quickly if it feels threatened. That would fit in with Khamenei's reported cautious stance.In any case, Ahmadinejad seems to be further weakened by the dispute. That leaves the Revolutionary Guard — the military-industrial powerhouse that is increasingly asserting itself in most aspects of Iran's society — as a beneficiary says the intelligence assessment.Khamenei has decided to transfer engagement with the most sensitive parts of the nuclear program, including activity that can be used for nuclear weapons, from ... the group of scientists at the Defense Ministry, who are identified with Ahmadinejad, to a special body in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp.,it says.This, due to the increasing lack of trust the Leader has in people in sensitive positions, who are identified with the President.The summary interprets the apparent decision to give the guard greater say over nuclear issues as a boost to its quest to establish its status as a leading power force in the regime.George Jahn can be contacted under http://twitter.com/georgejahn

Two Koreas likely to meet to discuss nuclear issue: report Reuters By Jack Kim | JULY 22,11

SEOUL (Reuters) - The nuclear envoys of South and North Korea are expected to meet on the sidelines of an Asian forum in Bali on Friday in the first high level contact since tensions spiked on the Korean peninsula last year, a news report said.Wi Sung-lac, South Korea's nuclear envoy, and Ri Yong-ho, North Korea's vice foreign minister who handles its nuclear diplomacy, will meet for unofficial talks on the sidelines of the ASEAN foreign ministers meeting, Yonhap news agency said.The South and the North are holding working-level coordination, Yonhap quoted a government official as saying in Bali. If the meeting (by the envoys) is set, it will be formally announced.The foreign ministry in Seoul could not confirm the report.North Korea walked away from the six-way nuclear talks more than two years ago but last year called for its resumption. South Korea and the United States want discussions between the rival Koreas as a preconditions to the resumption of the full negotiations.A U.S. official in Bali who did want to be quoted said it would be the most consequential meeting between the two sides in some time.It will take some time to understand and fully digest what has gone on between the north and south.Tensions rose to the highest level in years when a South Korean navy ship was sunk last year in a torpedo attack killing 46 sailors. South Korea blamed the North but Pyongyang denied any role. The North shelled a South Korean island in November.(Reporting by Jack Kim; Editing by Jeremy Laurence)

Who will get the budget egg on the face, Democrats, Republicans, Obama or the American people? Posted on July 21, 2011 by LAURIE ROTH

So far I can feel the yoke dripping down my forehead and nose and that isn’t a good sign. The truth is America is getting drowned in a vat of rotten eggs with these absurd compromises and budget discussions all based on ridiculous priorities and lies. As you recall, our Un American President has threatened not to send out the social security checks to our seniors, saying there wouldn’t be enough to pay them if the House and the Senate wouldn’t come to an agreement by August 2nd. The people, especially our seniors aren’t stupid. Most know this is based on total fabrication and lies. There is absolutely enough money to pay our critical bills according to Treasury reports! The key here that most of these political morons won’t notice or acknowledge is key bills.I wrote about this last week. Here it is again for those of you who are being persuaded by our Drama Queen President’s lies. By May 16, 2011, we had brought in 1,333,454 trillion. By July 1st, just 3 months later our revenue had grown to 1,629,630 trillion. The difference and revenue was 296,176 billion.Quite interestingly, our critical bills add up to 270,151 billion, social security, Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Affairs, Federal workers wages and insurance benefits. Do the math. We even have 26,025 billion left to pay other stuff.

Why then is the GOP even talking about compromising even with a Democrat controlled Senate? Short term, long term, in between term deficit increase…..no, no and NO.
If Speaker Bhoener and the Republicans can’t get any of their reduction plans put in place, they must hold their ground since there is plenty of money to pay our main bills. Otherwise, they are forcing Americans into more tax increases and dipping us in more rotten egg programs that are a waste of national time and money.Obama is scared and planning to manipulate political points from this financial, debt ceiling crisis, apparently at the expenses of our seniors. Our Federal Reserve is talking with the treasury and they have plainly said that we will default and won’t be able to borrow any more money by August 2nd, if there is no agreement signed. They are in contingency planning mode right now. Gee, I wonder what that means? Martial law, forced taxation everywhere, God only knows.Remember, this debt ceiling crisis is only here because of greedy, stupid spending orgies by the progressive left and addiction by our leaders to money and power gone nutso. If the truth was really told to the American people about ALL the waste and redundant programs our political class and President are addicted to and protecting, you would not only storm congress and the White House with pitchforks and loud, angry voices, but find that we are spending over 1 trillion in total waste and fraud.How do you make a debt ceiling compromise based on total, fraudulent numbers and lies? First you get the liars out of the House, Senate and White House, then start telling the truth about our REAL debt and budget needs. I am exploring a Presidential run as a conservative Independent, nothing special, just a woman who has ideas and cares about her country. You can see all my ideas in my book out by the end of July, The People’s President Look for it first in www.amazon.com then your local book stores. My exploratory web site will also be up by the end of the month, www.laurieroth2012.com. Let’s raise the roof rather than the debt ceiling.

Boehner and Obama NOT Close to Deal
- Judi McLeod Thursday, July 21, 2011

When it comes to the big scoop, you just can’t beat talk show radio.In the last segment of today’s Rush Limbaugh show House Speaker John Boehner told the radio giant that contrary to all the rumors circulating, there is no deal on the budget talks that would see substantial spending cuts and seek future revenues through a tax overhaul. There is no deal now and there never was, Boehner insists.Even though heralded by the New York Times there is no deal. Boehner worried that we are entering unchartered territory in risking default, adding that Republicans had been trying to cut our debt and balance our budget.Told by Limbaugh that Americans are worried that the Republicans would cave in to the Obama regime with some sort of deal, Boehner answered It would have been nice if the Democrats had put a plan on the table but the president has refused.Boehner was adamant about there being no deal even as a New York Times story posted on the Drudge Report today made it sound like a slam dunk.The Obama administration has informed Democratic Congressional leaders that President Obama and Speaker John A. Boehner were starting to close in on a major budget deal that would enact substantial spending cuts and seek future revenues through a tax overhaul, Congressional officials said Thursday.(The New York Times, July 21, 2011).

With the government staring at a potential default in less than two weeks, the officials said the administration on Wednesday night notified top members of Congress that an agreement between the president and Mr. Boehner could be imminent. The Congressional leaders, whose help Mr. Obama would need to bring a compromise forward, were told that the new revenue tied to looming agreement to increase the debt limit by Aug. 2 would be produced in 2012 through a tax code rewrite that would lower individual and corporate rates, close loopholes, end tax breaks and make other adjustments to produce revenue gains.Limbaugh, at noon hour and Mark Levin, between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. EST seem to be teaming up to produce the unvarnished truth for Americans largely disenfranchised by a mainstream media who seem to be promulgating the propaganda of an often scare-tactic driven government.With an estimated combined 28 million radio listeners between them, Limbaugh and Levin are closing in on the mainstream media keeping Americans in touch with what is really happening at the White House.Limbaugh + Levin ≠Obama will become Dictator, Michael Zak of the Grand Old Partisan website wrote yesterday headlines.What is Barack Obama’s endgame? What are his true intentions.? What does he really want? Yesterday, two radio titans predicted very bad things are heading America’s way. On his program, Rush Limbaugh said he thinks that President Obama will follow through on his threat and invoke the 14th Amendment as an excuse to raise the debt ceiling (that is, borrow money) without congressional authorization. On his program a few hours later, Mark Levin said that if Obama does that, he would be acting as a dictator.Barack Obama, Dictator of the United States of America? Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin think It Can Happen Here, wrote Zak.Limbaugh and Levin are the two of the most powerful names in talk show radio today. Their co-jointly closing in on the truth opens doors for Americans left in the dark by a mainstream media.Even with the mainstream media in his pocket, it will be more difficult for Obama to hype it with the two Big L’s closing in on the chase.Tune in on Mark Levin 6 p.m. tonight.

FAMINE COULD KILL MILLIONS IN SOMALIA

Less Invasive TSA Body Scanners Do Nothing To Address Radiation Risk Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com Thursday, July 21, 2011

The TSA has saturated mainstream media with its unveiling of new less invasive security scanners that do not show images of a person’s naked body, but the new devices do nothing to address concerns voiced by numerous health authorities – the fact that the machines rely on firing cancer-causing radiation to produce the image in the first place.The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Administrator John Pistole announced today that the agency will install new software on some body-scanning machines to make images less revealing and air passengers feel less stripped down, reports Time.The new technology, called Automated Target Recognition, will be installed on millimeter wave machines, which make up about half of the 488 full-body scanners in use at U.S. airports. Images will no longer be passenger-specific, but instead will auto-detect items that could pose a potential threat using a generic outline of a person for all passengers, according to the TSA statement.The new technology is expected to be installed in all US airports that use the millimeter wave scanners by the end of the year. It will then be added to the other type of device used which relies on backscatter x-ray technology to produce the image.

However, both the millimeter wave and backscatter x-ray devices will continue to emit radiation that respected health authorities have warned will cause cancer. Despite claims to the contrary, the millimeter wave machines tear apart DNA to produce their image, while the backscatter devices fire ionizing radiation into the body.Numerous highly respected universities and health bodies, including Johns Hopkins, Columbia University, the University of California, and the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety, have all warned that the health threat posed by the scanners has not been properly studied and could lead to increased cancer rates.Despite the TSA lying in claiming that Johns Hopkins had verified the safety of the scanners, Dr Michael Love, who runs an X-ray lab at the department of biophysics and biophysical chemistry at the Johns Hopkins school of medicine, has publicly warned that statistically someone is going to get skin cancer from these X-rays.A study conducted last year by Dr David Brenner, head of Columbia University’s center for radiological research, also found that the body scanners are likely to lead to an increase in a common type of skin cancer called basal cell carcinoma, which affects the head and neck.As we reported last month, leaked documents published by the Electronic Privacy Information Center revealed how TSA workers became concerned over a cancer cluster amongst screening agents at Boston Logan International Airport, and how the federal agency tried to cover-up the complaints.

Despite these massive health concerns, the TSA has ignored calls for it to use readily available scanners that do not emit any form of radiation whatsoever, and are already successfully being used for security applications by corporations such as Sony.So why is the TSA reticent to switch to using devices that do not emit harmful radiation? Because it would require more than a software upgrade to do so, the whole machine would have to be replaced, and thousands of Americans getting cancer just isn’t a good enough reason for the federal agency to spend a few million dollars making the change.Another reason is the fact that the radiation-free scanners being used by Sony are not owned by companies like Rapiscan who are clients of the massive post-9/11 private shadow Homeland Security industry. People like former DHS director Michael Chertoff, who aggressively pushed body scanners in the days after the highly suspicious Christmas Day bomber incident, do not make money out out radiation-free scanners, which is probably a very good reason why you don’t see the TSA in any rush to use them in airports.

Legions Of Biometric Face Scanning Cameras To Be Installed At Heathrow Airport Within Weeks Steve Watson Prisonplanet.com July 21, 2011

In addition to full body scanners and enhanced grope downs, the latest big brother nightmare to hit airports comes in the form of biometric facial recognition cameras, set to be rolled out in terminals at London’s Heathrow Airport in September.After an eighteen month trial, the Aurora Imaging Recognition (AIR) biometric system with enhanced image infrared cameras has been approved for use in the airport at terminals 1 and 5, reports the London Evening Standard.Heathrow Skyport describes the process that travelers will have to undergo after the system is adopted:
Passengers are enrolled into the system and the biometric photo is linked with the boarding pass number on entry into the common user lounge, otherwise known as the departure lounge, at the first security check point.Each passenger is then verified against their previous enrolment when the airside area before heading towards their departure gate.It has the ability to identify people from a distance of 40cm to one metre, meaning that personal space is not imposed upon, and has been designed for people of different heights, including wheelchair users and children.Tests conducted by the independent airport operator BAA and the UK Border Agency found that each face scan takes approximately 4-5 seconds.There is no indication that anyone will be allowed to opt out of the procedure, meaning that for all travelers it will be compulsory to have a face scan and be added to the database in order to fly out of the terminal.The justification for the system is to prevent passengers swapping tickets in the departure lounge, potentially allowing an international passenger to fly domestically, thus bypassing immigration checks.

The operators also say that the system will help identify potential terrorists, however it is not clear how this is possible given that they also claim that all data collected will be stored for up to 24 hours and then destroyed.It is exactly this kind of loose justification and the bandying about of the word terrorism to sell nothing more than pure security theatre that has led to such a rampant backlash against the TSA takeover in the US.The British government has been moving toward the use of such systems for some time. Three years ago we reported that passport control officers at UK airports were to be phased out in favour of the biometric cameras.It was then revealed two months later that Interpol, the International Criminal Police Organization, wishes to integrate a facial database with its already existing fingerprint and DNA databases.The organization, is planning to expand its role into the mass screening of passengers moving around the world by creating a face recognition database to catch wanted suspects, reported the London Guardian at the time.Such a database will hold the records of every citizen who has ever traveled in and out of virtually every country in the world, representing intelligence agency style bulk interception of information.We have previously noted that the vast array of databases currently being employed by intelligence agencies, government and law enforcement agencies worldwide were designed to be linked together in a system which will tie in the management and control of all facets of life for citizens to one central hub.2008 saw the announcement of a vast intelligence program to establish a global biometric database known as Server in the Sky that will collate and provide an International Information Consortium with access to the biometric measurements and personal information of citizens across the globe in the name of fighting the war on terror.As reported by the London Guardian, the long term plan is being formulated by the FBI with the cooperation of the home offices and law enforcement agencies of American allies. The technology is being supplied by the US defense company Northrop Grumman.Furthermore, the use of such technology, as we have already seen, will not be limited to the passport control office.

A 2007 British government report muted an extensive upgrade to cctv systems all across the country to incorporate facial scanning technology. The report suggested a central database of every camera and a network allowing access to it could be beneficial.In the US there are several schemes that use Facial Recognition Technology in conjunction with Federal agencies, tying the technology to traditional documents such as drivers licenses, passports and credit cards.A biometric face recognition system has already been approved in China and is expected to be used at airports, customs entrances, banks, post offices, residential areas and other public places in the near future.Other proposals include placing the cameras in every seat on aircraft and installing software to try and automatically detect terrorists or other dangers caused by passengers.We are assured that cigarette vending machines will employ the technology in order to enforce smoking laws. Similarly, supermarkets in the UK have already started trialing the technology with the justification being a crackdown on underage drinking.In Japan facial scanning cameras are being installed in train and bus stations to replace tickets in a move to make the individual features of the face a unique bar code as part of an antiterrorism and anticrime initiative.Police in Tokyo are also asking home and shop owners to mount the cameras outside their properties. Police investigating an incident in the neighborhood would have access to these images.according to reports.Cell phones and computers are now also being produced with face scanning cameras, and even facebook has now integrated facial recognition software.The prospect of the technology being so widely used was recently even critisized by Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt. A prominent Bilderberger and a man who once said that internet users should have no expectation of privacy, Schmidt said Show us 14 photos of yourself and we can identify who you are, before warning governments of adopting any foolish legislation that would see facial recognition technology become a part of everyday life.

Exclusive: Fed planning for potential default
By Kristina Cooke and Tim Ahmann – Wed Jul 20, 5:07 pm ET

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) – The Federal Reserve is actively preparing for the possibility that the United States could default as a deadline for raising the government's $14.3 trillion borrowing limit looms, a top Fed policymaker said on Wednesday.Charles Plosser, president of the Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank, said the U.S. central bank has for the past few months been working closely with Treasury, ironing out what to do if the world's biggest economy runs out of cash on August 2.We are in contingency planning mode, Plosser told Reuters in an interview at the regional central bank's headquarters in Philadelphia. We are all engaged. ... It's a very active process.Plosser said his gut feeling was that President Barack Obama and Congress will come to an agreement to increase the Treasury's borrowing authority in time to avert a default on government obligations.Obama was due to meet with top Republicans in Congress on Wednesday to discuss the latest attempts to end the dispute over raising the country's debt ceiling, a row which has raised the prospect of the Treasury Department running out of money to pay its bills next month.

The Treasury has repeatedly said default was unthinkable and that there was no alternative to raising the debt ceiling. Plosser's remarks marked the most extensive public comments yet on preparations for a default from a U.S. official.A Treasury spokesperson could not be immediately reached for comment.One aspect of the Fed's contingency planning is purely operational: the Fed is developing procedures about how the Treasury would notify it on which checks would get cleared and which wouldn't, Plosser said.The Fed effectively acts as the Treasury's bank -- it clears the government's checks to everyone from social security recipients to government workers.We are developing processes and procedures by which the Treasury communicates to us what we are going to do, Plosser said, adding that the task was manageable.How the Fed is going to go about clearing government checks. Which ones are going to be good? Which ones are not going to be good? There are a lot of people working on what we would do and how we would do it,he said.Plosser added that there are difficult questions that the Fed itself had to grapple with.The Fed lends to banks at the discount window against good collateral. But what happens if U.S. Treasuries no longer fit that bill? Do we treat them as if they didn't default, in which case we would be saying we are pretending it never happened? Or do we treat them as if they defaulted and don't lend against them? Plosser said.Those are more policy questions.Plosser, who was a vocal critic of some of the Fed's extraordinary lending during the financial crisis -- which he said veered into fiscal policy and risked the central bank's independence -- warned it would be crucial for the Fed not to do the Treasury's work for it.We have to be very careful that we don't become, that we don't conduct fiscal policy in this context, he said.That we don't substitute for the inability of the Treasury to borrow in some circumstances.

INCLINED TO TIGHTEN

Plosser, a noted policy hawk on inflation, argued the Fed might need to raise interest rates before the end of the year, despite recent evidence of renewed economic weakness.He said he expects the economy to grow at a 3-3.5 percent annual rate over the second half of 2011 with the jobless rate declining to around 8.5 percent by year's end.The more my forecast comes to fruition the more I'm going to feel like we may have to act, said Plosser, who is a voting member of the Fed's monetary policy-setting committee this year.I'd like to have a little more confidence in that forecast.Plosser pinned the slowdown in economic growth over the first half of the year to easily identifiable factors, such as weather, a spike in oil prices and supply disruptions from Japan's earthquake. He also cited uncertainty stemming from Europe's fiscal morass and the wrangling over U.S. debt in Washington.

I don't see the fundamentals of the economy as changed that much,he said.Yeah, there's been some shocks and disruptions, but the underlying forces that are going to cause us to continue a slow, moderate recovery are still in place.That said, the Fed, which is charged with ensuring financial stability, would clearly feel the responsibility to step in as a lender of last resort if markets seized up after a U.S. default, he added.Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke last week warned that a default could have catastrophic effects on financial markets.Plosser, a former dean of the Simon School of Business at Rochester University, was more circumspect.It could be very bad. At some level we don't really know what the consequences could be. It could be very serious. It could be less serious. Do we really want to run that experiment?(Editing by Chizu Nomiyama and Leslie Adler)

Latest DHS Fear-mongering: al-Qaeda Plans to Take Out Nuke Plant Infowars.com July 21, 2011 Kirt Nimmo

The Department of Homeland Security has issued a report warning that insiders are likely to conduct a terror attack on a major utility facility, including a chemical or oil refinery. The warning was sent out on Tuesday.Based on the reliable reporting of previous incidents, we have high confidence in our judgment that insiders and their actions pose a significant threat to the infrastructure and information systems of U.S. facilities,the bulletin states.Past events and reporting also provide high confidence in our judgment that insider information on sites, infrastructure, networks, and personnel is valuable to our adversaries and may increase the impact of any attack on the utilities infrastructure.The feds cite a supposed intelligence trove discovered at a house in Pakistan where Osama bin Laden was allegedly killed by Navy SEALS. The government has yet to provide conclusive evidence of the assassination and changed important details of its narrative numerous times. Neighbors in Abbottabad said they never saw the six foot five terrorist at the compound where he was allegedly killed and describe the much lauded assassination as a hoax.Information supposedly gleaned from this unsubstantiated trove is at the heart of the latest DHS effort to frighten Americans into accepting the ongoing conversion of America into a Gestapo police state.The only way you can actually kill the large scale number of Americans that [bin Laden] literally was calculating was through the use of this critical infrastructure, Chad Sweet, former DHS chief of staff and co-founder of the Chertoff Group, told ABC News.The Chertoff Group was at the forefront of the effort to sell dangerous radiation emitting naked body scanners to the government and install them at airports. Warnings of impending terrorist attacks from the co-founder of a group that has profited handsomely in the contrived war on manufactured terror and has endangered the public health in the process should be considered suspicious.

There are a lot of very sensitive facilities where someone can get a job on the inside, can get access to a control room, flip a switch which causes an electric power grid to short circuit, and causes a pipeline to explode, said another war on terror opportunist, former national security official Richard Clarke.In order to make the case a terrorist working for cave dwellers may pitch the nation into the dark ages at any minute, the corporate media is exploiting the case of Sharif Mobley, portrayed as an American recruit to al-Qaeda.The corporate media characterized Mobley as a terrorist after he was arrested in Yemen and later killed a guard during an escape attempt. After it was discovered the New Jersey man had worked as a contract laborer at several U.S. nuclear power plants between 2002 and 2008, the establishment media went into a feeding frenzy of hysterical reporting on imagined threats by al-Qaeda.Mobley’s lawyer, Cori Crider of the London-based human rights group Reprieve, told the Atlantic City Press he did not behave like a plotting terrorist. He was making plans to return to the United States with his Philadelphia-native wife, his 3-year-old daughter and his newborn son.Mobley was not conspiring with al-Qaeda, but was in fact attempting to get out of Yemen after authorities allowed the inept so-called underwear bomber to fly from Amsterdam to Detroit. Following the botched (choreographed) attack, Muslims in Yemen faced increased scrutiny.It was never established that Mobley posed a threat to the nuclear plant where he worked. The threat is purely insinuation and propaganda hyped-up by the corporate media as it reads from a Pentagon generated script.

The whole thing seems very murky to me. There were stories at the time of dozens of foreigners who were rounded up in Yemen. But there was never any follow-up about what happened to them,said Christopher Boucek, an associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.The fact Mobley had contact with the new face of Islamic evil, Anwar al-Awlaki, is cited as proof of his connection to al-Qaeda. The former resident of Las Cruces, New Mexico, is said to be the new Osama bin Laden.Not mentioned is the fact al-Awlaki was a popular Islamic lecturer who sold millions of CDs before taking a more radical stance toward non-Muslims during the Iraq War. Also not mentioned is the fact he dined at the Pentgagon and his recent behavior demonstrates that he is an intelligence operative recuriting patsies who are used to score propaganda victories in the war on manufactured terror.Awlaki is a CIA operative Webster Tarpley told Alex Jones in October. Part 2.DHS spokesman Matthew Chandler admitted that the agency has no specific, credible intelligence of an imminent threat posed to the private-sector utilities,but said several recent incidents [Mobley working at a nuclear plant] highlight the ongoing threat to infrastructure in the utility sectors.The DHS bulletin dovetails with government claims that hacker terrorists plan to take out America’s vulnerable power grid. Like the supposed threat to nuclear plants based on an imaginary treasure trove of intelligence grabbed from a CIA created terrorist who in fact died in late 2001, the hacker narrative is based on insinuation, ideologically driven conjecture, and half truth.The ghost of Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda have had almost a decade to launch attacks on the United States, but have failed to do so. The government claims it has foiled a number of terror plots in the making, but when these are more closely examined it is discovered that most were arranged by the FBI through informants and agents provocateurs. The government has a dismal record when it comes to terror related convictions.In fact, there is little threat to the United States by terrorists. In a free an open society, it would be relatively easy for terrorists to accomplish any number of horrific terror attacks, but this has not happened.

Although it remains heretical to say so, the evidence so far suggests that fears of the omnipotent terrorist — reminiscent of those inspired by images of the 20-foot-tall Japanese after Pearl Harbor or the 20-foot-tall Communists at various points in the Cold War (particularly after Sputnik) — may have been overblown, the threat presented within the United States by al Qaeda greatly exaggerated,writes John Mueller, a professor of political science at Ohio State University.The massive and expensive homeland security apparatus erected since 9/11 may be persecuting some, spying on many, inconveniencing most, and taxing all to defend the United States against an enemy that scarcely exists.More to the point, the DHS keeps releasing these patently absurd terror bulletins and warnings primarily to condition the public to the fantasy that al-Qaeda is still out there. An exaggerated ten foot tall al-Qaeda has been used now for over a decade – since Clinton and the embassy bombings in Africa – to propagandize the public as the government continues to build a massive police state (complete with a high-tech surveillance apparatus) and conduct bogus and illegal wars in geostrategic regions of the world.

UN bid will not affect peace process: Abbas
JULY 20,11

Spain's Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero (R) welcomes Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas (L) at the Moncloa palace in Madrid. Abbas said his efforts to seek UN membership for the Palestinians would not affect negotiations that we want to continue to have with Israel.Spain's Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero (R) welcomes Palestinian president …Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said his efforts to seek UN membership for the Palestinians would not affect negotiations that we want to continue to have with Israel.Abbas is in Spain as part of a foreign tour aimed at drumming up support for United Nations recognition of a Palestinian state amid a long stalemate in peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians.But the Palestinians' plan to seek UN membership for a state on the lines that existed before the 1967 Six Day War is opposed by among others Israel and the United States. It risks being blocked by a US veto at the UN Security Council.

Whatever happens and whatever the reaction and the result of our action in the UN, we know conclusively that we will return to the negotiating table to reach the best solutions with the Israelis, Abbas said in a speech in Arabic at the headquarters of the Union for the Mediterranean in Barcelona.The efforts that we have taken to go to the United Nations in September will not be detrimental to peace nor to negotiations that we want to continue to have.The speech came hours after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was willing to hold peace talks with the Palestinians immediately.I'm prepared to negotiate with president Abbas directly for peace between our two peoples right now. We can do it here in my home in Jerusalem, we can do it in Ramallah (in the West Bank), we can do it anywhere, he told Arabic-language television station Al-Arabiya.Talks between Israel and the Palestinians have been on hold since September over the issue of settlement construction.The negotiations broke down shortly after they started when a partial settlement freeze expired, which Israel refused to renew.Since then, the Palestinians have said they will not talk while Israel builds on land they want for their future state, turning instead to the United Nations where they hope to obtain recognition and membership for a state on the lines that existed before the Six Day War.The United States has been cool to the idea of UN recognition and has urged the Palestinians and Israel not to take unilateral steps that could jeopardise a final peace settlement.During talks with Abbas in Madrid earlier, Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero urged Israel and the Palestinians to return to the negotiating table.Zapatero called for work to continue on finding a consensual solution that will allow both sides to resume their dialogue and return to the bargaining table, the Spanish government said in a statement.Spanish Foreign Minister Trinidad Jimenez later said Spain was linking any recognition of a Palestinian state to efforts by the Israelis and Palestinians to agree on the basic elements of a solution.

Barroso lays down the line for EU summit
HONOR MAHONY 20.07.2011 @ 14:24 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Amid continued uncertainty over whether Thursday's (20 July) summit will be a success, European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso has stepped into the breach with a list of five must-do tasks for eurozone leaders to achieve at the emergency meeting.Calling on the 17 eurozone countries to show European responsibility, Barroso said that the summit must at a minimum provide clarity on a second bailout for Greece and on the feasibility and limits of private sector involvement.Leaders need to come to the table saying what they can do and what they want to do and what they will do. Not what they can't do and won't do (Photo: consilium.europa.eu)Leaders should also be clear on how the European Financial Stability Facility, the eurozone's rescue fund, can be made more flexible, on what still needs to be done to repair the banking sector, and on measures to keep the banking system in liquidity.Barroso's laying down of the line is a direct challenge to German chancellor Angela Merkel, who has been playing for time as she insists on involving the private sector in a second Greek bailout, with Germans deeply unhappy at the prospect of more loans going to the Mediterranean country.

I urge all the leaders to show the ethics of European responsibility. I have been making the case that it is in the self-interest of every member state to commit. It is true for those who have to reduce deficit and debt, and it is also true for those who are asked for support and solidarity.A summit without a response will mean negative consequences will be felt in all corners of Europe and beyond.Barroso is the first leading EU politician both to spell out the seriousness of the eurozone crisis, which lately has been lapping at the heels of Spain and Italy, and what is needed as a response.The EU got a major fright in recent days when borrowing costs rose in Italy and Spain with markets simply doubting the political commitment behind the public assurances that member states would do whatever it takes to manage the crisis.The International Monetary Fund, which will be part of any new bailout for Greece, has been clamouring for some clarity from the EU and has warned about the global consequences of inaction.Angela Merkel, however, yesterday put the brakes on any suggestions that Thursday's meeting would see a comprehensive solution to the debt crisis.Further steps will be necessary and not just one spectacular event which solves everything,she said.

Stricter bank rules

Barroso also used the press conference to announce the setting up of a special taskforce on Greece, to support delivery of the EU-IMF programme and accelerate absorption of EU funds.The task, which will be based in Brussels but have a support team in Athens, will make its first report in October.Meanwhile, EU financial services commissioner Michel Barnier on Wednesday announced another flank in the bloc's attempt to prevent a recurrence of the financial crisis.Under the proposals, which have to be agreed by member states and parliament, banks will be forced to raise some €460 billion in capital by 2019 to act as a buffer against another crisis.
We cannot let such a crisis occur again and we cannot allow the actions of a few in the financial world to jeopardize our prosperity,said Barnier.

Germany, France reach accord on Greek bailout
By Gernot Heller and Emmanuel Jarry – JULY 20,11

BERLIN/PARIS (Reuters) – Germany and France have reached a common position on a second bailout of Greece in their effort to prevent the country's debt crisis from spreading through Europe, officials said on Thursday.The accord came after seven hours of talks late into Wednesday night between German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy in Berlin, sources in both governments said.Details of the common position were not revealed. European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet joined Merkel and Sarkozy for part of their talks.The accord between the two most powerful states in the euro zone will now be presented to a crisis summit in Brussels on Thursday of all 17 leaders of the bloc, who are trying to prevent fears of a Greek debt default from poisoning access to the bond market for bigger states such as Italy and Spain.The new bailout would supplement a 110 billion euro ($156 billion) rescue plan for Greece launched in May last year. It is expected to include fresh emergency loans to Athens from euro zone governments and the International Monetary Fund, and possibly a range of other measures.Worried about the impact on financial markets and wary of angering their own taxpayers, euro zone governments have struggled for several weeks to agree on major aspects of the plan, especially a contribution by private sector investors.

The euro rose moderately against the dollar in response to the Franco-German announcement, but markets may remain nervous until the details are revealed. Providing fresh money to Greece and arranging for commercial banks to participate could face legal and technical obstacles.The head of the European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, warned on Wednesday the global economy would suffer if Europe could not summon the political will to act decisively on Greece.Nobody should be under any illusion: the situation is very serious. It requires a response, otherwise the negative consequences will be felt in all corners of Europe and beyond, Barroso told a news conference.Britain's finance minister George Osborne, in an interview with the Financial Times published on Thursday, urged euro zone leaders to "get a grip" on the debt crisis when they met on Thursday and said failure could produce an economic crisis as serious as the recession which followed the global credit crash of 2008.

NOT CLEAR

Barroso said a solution to Greece's problems must include steps to ensure the sustainability of Greek public finances, private sector involvement in funding for Athens, more flexible use of the euro zone's bailout fund, repair of the region's banking system, and liquidity to keep the Greek economy going.It was not clear how many of these steps were included in the Franco-German accord.Four competing proposals have been circulating for private sector involvement: a rollover of Greek government bonds as they mature, a swap of bonds for debt with longer maturities, a buy-back of Greek debt at a discount to its face value, and a tax on European banks.
Germany and France have been at odds on these proposals, with Berlin promoting a bond swap and France suggesting a rollover or a tax. The ECB has complicated the argument by opposing any step that might cause credit rating agencies to declare Greek debt in default; this would probably be the case for all proposals except the tax, which the banks hate.German newspaper Bild, citing diplomatic sources, reported that top European commercial bankers including Deutsche Bank Chief Executive Josef Ackermann and the head of a large French private bank would attend Thursday's summit to discuss the private sector contribution.The IMF, whose new head Christine Lagarde will also attend, has told euro zone leaders they should put more money into their bailout fund, the 440 billion euro European Financial Stability Facility, and let it buy government bonds of weak states on the secondary market. Investors also hope it will be permitted to extend precautionary credit lines to countries at risk.But Germany previously blocked these steps and while a source close to euro zone talks told Reuters earlier this week the ideas were back on the table, there has been no clear sign that Berlin has changed its mind.The steps would require changes in the EFSF's rules that would have to be ratified by national parliaments, and could fall foul of critics in Germany, the Netherlands and Finland.Regardless of the details of the Franco-German accord, Thursday's summit is very unlikely to mark a complete resolution of the crisis, as Merkel herself acknowledged earlier this week.

Officials have estimated the private sector contribution may total only about 30 billion euros, a tiny amount compared to Greece's 340 billion euro mountain of sovereign debt. So the second bailout may simply keep Greece afloat for a number of months before a tougher decision has to be made on writing off more of its debt.In any case, many economists believe the only way out of the euro zone's debt crisis in the long run may be closer integration of national fiscal policies -- for example, a joint euro zone guarantee for countries' bonds, or issuance of a joint euro zone bond to finance all countries.Germany has firmly ruled out such steps, but Osborne said the second Greek bailout would only be a step toward a necessary fiscal union in the euro zone.(Writing by Andrew Torchia; Editing by Matthew Jones)

IMF says property bubble in China a concern
– JULY 20,11

WASHINGTON, Jul (Reuters) – The International Monetary Fund said on Wednesday it remains concerned with the potential for a property price bubble in China even though the country's elevated inflation rate may peak within the next month or two.
While efforts by China to cool the real estate sector have reduced transaction volumes and property price increases, prices in some larger cities still look bubbly, Nigel Chalk, IMF mission chief to China, told reporters while discussing the IMF's annual health check of the Chinese economy.As long as the cost of financing is low and other investment options are sparse, the propensity for property bubbles will remain and the government will have to take progressively tighter administrative measures to stem demand and dampen house price inflation, the IMF review said.Chalk said China could address the risk of recurring property price bubbles by raising the cost of capital, introducing property taxes and developing alternate household savings vehicles.While inflation, which has become a pressing social and economic issue in China, was set to ease in coming months, unpredictable shocks from higher food and commodity prices were a risk that could push inflation higher again, the fund said.Some part of current inflation was likely being suppressed by administrative measures, it cautioned, adding: This may stifle the appropriate supply response to higher prices and could lead to the inflationary dynamic showing more inertia and persistence during this cycle.He said Chinese officials had raised during discussions the issue of high public debt in the United States, Britain and elsewhere as a risk that could impact Chinese policies going forward.

Beijing has pressed the United States to take responsible measures to boost market confidence in the dollar and U.S. government debt, underscoring investor worries that Washington could default on its debt unless lawmakers raise a $14.3 trillion debt ceiling by an August 2 deadline.The IMF repeated that the Chinese currency remains substantially below medium-term fundamentals. It said allowing the yuan currency to rise was vital for planned financial reforms and rebalancing demand in China.A footnote in the report by an IMF internal group put the yuan as undervalued somewhere between 3 percent to 23 percent against a basket of currencies, depending on the type of methodology used to calculate its value.For the first time ever, the IMF has this year evaluated how policies of five largest economies including China, the United States, Euro zone, Japan and Britain are affecting the global economy.It said China's exchange rate regime alone may only have modest direct effects in tackling global economic imbalances. But the undervaluation of the currency held back progress in promoting economic rebalancing within China, away from an export-led growth model toward more domestic consumption.The IMF said the Chinese authorities disagreed with staff exchange rate assessment and emphasized there had been progress in improving the mechanism for setting the exchange rate.The fund urged China to immediately move ahead with its five-year plan for financial reforms although warned that it was a complicated and risky exercise that needs to be managed carefully and sequenced correctly.In order to move ahead with financial reform, a prerequisite for that will be to have a more appreciated renminbi which will reduce the pace of reserve accumulation, lessen the amount of liquidity injected into the financial system and allow China to move ahead in a safe way, said Chalk.(Reporting by Lesley Wroughton; Editing by Ramya Venugopal)

Chabad is Zionist, Rabbi Says-A spokesman for the Chabad-Lubavitch Chassidic movement says the sect is Zionist in its support for Israel.by Chana Ya'ar Last Update: 20/07/11, 8:48 AM

A spokesman for the Chabad-Lubavitch worldwide Chassidic movement says the sect is Zionist in its support for Israel.Rabbi Menachem Brod of Kfar Chabad told Arutz Sheva in an exclusive interview Tuesday that the traditional definition of the term has morphed into one that has become unclear.Brod set about clarifying what the Chabad-Lubavitch movement defines Zionism to mean in the practical sense of the word, making it clear that its Jewish origins have not changed.If the definition of 'Zionism' is defined as detachment from Jewish roots and becoming a nation like any other, we oppose that – and so did all the great Torah leaders. But if Zionism is about loving the land, about national security, settling the land, then Chabad definitely supports those important activities, he declared.Brod, who serves as the movement's spokesman in Israel, was responding to criticism from the Reform movement-affiliated group Hiddush (Hebrew for innovation).The group had attempted to persuade Knesset members to call off a Knesset event – an evening to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Federation of Jewish Communities of the CIS. The event was held to honor Chabad for its decades-long outreach to Jews in the former Soviet Union.

Hiddush argued that the Knesset should not support Chabad because it is anti-Zionist.
No MKs responded to the appeal, however, and the event was held as scheduled.Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who addressed a Tel Aviv hall filled to capacity at the event, told the Chabad emissaries, You stand atop of the mountain, and the Jewish people gathered at its base salute you. I am the first .Among the hundreds of Chabad emissaries from the former Soviet Union to attend the event were Russia's Chief Rabbi, Berel Lazar and philanthropist Lev Leviev, head of Africa-Israel.

UN: Famine in Somalia; Millions Could Die-The United Nations has declared a famine in Somalia as the worst drought in 60 years endangers some 12 million people. by Chana Ya'ar Published: 20/07/11, 7:10 PM

The United Nations has officially declared a famine in Somalia as the worst drought in 60 years endangers some 12 million people in the African nation.At least 20 percent of households face extreme food shortages, more than 30 percent of the population is affected by acute malnutrition and there are at least two deaths per 10,000 people each day, according to the UN definition of famine.Al-Qaeda-linked rebels known as the Shebab control southern Bakool and Lower Shabelle – two specific regions in the south also known as Somalia's breadbasket -- which have been especially hard-hit by the drought.The terror-linked rebels expelled relief groups two years ago, accusing them of being Christian crusaders and Western spies, sealing the fate of many of those who now find themselves trapped there.Aid groups are now warning that many will die without urgent action -- and funding -- according to a statement issued by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs for Somalia.An estimated 3.7 million people – nearly half of the war-ravaged nation's population – face a food crisis, according to the UN agency. Of those, an estimated 2.8 million people are living in the south, said Mark Bowden, UN humanitarian coordinator for Somalia.

If we don't act now, famine will spread to all eight regions of southern Somalia within two months due to poor harvests and outbreaks of infectious diseases, said Bowden.If we are not able to intervene immediately, tens of thousands more Somalis may die, he said, adding that malnutrition rates there are currently the highest in the world, with peaks of 50 percent in some southern areas.More than 78,000 Somalis have fled to nearby Ethiopia and Kenya in the past two months to escape the conflict and famine.The Food and Agricultural Organization appealed Wednesday for $120 million for the 12 million drought victims in the Horn of Africa.UN agencies are set to meet Monday in Rome to discuss the crisis as world leaders call for mass mobilization to contain what is being referred to as one of the planet's worst unfolding humanitarian disasters.Somalia, a nation in ongoing conflict for 20 years, has been by far the hardest-hit but by no means the only African nation to be affected by the drought. Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda and Djibouti are suffering the effects of a drought as well.It has been impossible to determine whether neighboring Eritrea is also affected, according to the AFP news agency, since it is one of the most secretive countries in the world. The US has urged the country to reveal whether its own food situation is at risk as well.

Iran: US Drone Shot Down over Nuclear Site-Iran says it shot down an unmanned US drone that was gathering information on a uranium enrichment facility. The US has not commented.by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu Published: 20/07/11, 5:29 PM

Iran says it shot down an unmanned U.S. drone that was gathering information of a uranium enrichment facility at the Fordo nuclear site in the central Qom region, according to official government media. The United States has not commented.National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Ali Aqazadeh Dafsari announced that the Revolutionary Guards air defense officers brought down the drone.Iran's Foreign Ministry said that the Islamic Republic is installing a new generation of uranium enrichment centrifuges in the country's nuclear facilities for what he called Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.The Fordo site is situated adjacent to a military complex for protection in case of an attack, and Iran did not admit that the site existed until Western intelligence sources identified it two years ago.It reportedly is buried nearly 300 feet underground in a mountainous region. Israel and the Saudi Arabia suspect that Iran is using the facility for 20-percewnt low-enriched uranium that could allow it to produce a nuclear weapon.Estimates of when Iran will be able to manufacture and to deliver a nuclear warhead vary from several months to three years.

Jailed Barghouti Urges Millions to Rally-Jailed terrorist Marwan Barghouti appeals to Palestinian Authority Arabs to stage a million-man march for a pro-PA resolution in the UN. by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu Published: 20/07/11, 6:06 PM

Terrorist Marwan Barghouti has written from his jail cell an appeal for millions of Palestinian Authority Arabs to march in September to show support for a United Nations resolution to declare the PA an independent country based on its own definition of borders.Barghouti, serving five life sentences for planning mass-murder suicide attacks against Jews, is unarguably the most popular figure n the Palestinian Authority, including PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad.He previously has called for a mass march on Jerusalem, but this week his letter to Arabs was published in full in Palestinian Authority media.Promoting his self-styled image of a terrorist-turned intellectual peace-seeker through peaceful resistance, Barghouti called on Arabs to stage a peaceful million-man march during the United Nations General Assembly in September.

Nearly two dozen dead as heat wave moves east
By Karin Matz – Wed Jul 20, 4:55 pm ET

CHICAGO (Reuters) – A heat wave baking the central and southern United States was blamed on Wednesday for at least 22 deaths this week as forecasters warned that the abnormally hot weather could last into August as it moves east.The National Weather Service said 141 million people in more than two dozen states were under a heat advisory or warning because of the soaring temperatures, the most recent in a series of heat waves that have scorched the country's midsection off and on since late May.

In Wichita, Kansas, where temperatures have reached 100 degrees or more on 24 days so far this year, forecasters warned that the mercury would hit at least 100 degrees each day through next Tuesday.It's just draining, physically draining, said Chris Vaccaro, a Weather Service spokesman.AccuWeather.com predicted the effects of the current heat wave -- in terms of stress on the power grid, damage to roads and bridges, and lost lives -- could eclipse the effects of the deadly heat wave of the summer of 1995, which claimed hundreds of lives in Chicago alone.When all is said and done, with the number of days of extreme heat and humidity of the current heat wave, it may be more significant and impact a larger area, said AccuWeather's Jim Andrews.Hospitals in Wichita treated 25 heat-related illnesses, according to the National Weather Service. In Des Moines, Iowa, 16 people have been hospitalized because of this week's high temperatures.The high heat and humidity have been stressing U.S. crops, particularly corn, which is now in a key growth stage when heat and moisture can cut final yields.

Grain traders in Chicago and Kansas City also said the drought and heat in the Plains was beginning to cause concern about the fate of next year's output of hard red winter wheat crop, the primary bread wheat of the United States, which is grown in a parched swath from Texas to South Dakota.Farmers plant that crop each autumn and harvest the following summer. But if rains did not come soon, farmers may not plant wheat because of the powdery dry soil.The prolonged brutal heat was also endangering livestock. Up to 1,500 cattle have died in South Dakota because of the heat wave, according to the state's veterinarian, Dustin Oedekoven, and he expects that number to rise.The weather is certainly extraordinary, Oedekoven said, adding that high day-time heat and humidity with little relief at night has made it a challenge to keep livestock comfortable.In Wisconsin, dairy farmers like Dave Daniels, the owner of Mighty Grand Dairy farm in Kenosha County, were blaming the prolonged heat for a drop in his herd's milk production.In Indianapolis, homeowners were being asked to stop watering their lawns through at least Sunday.We are asking our customers to curtail lawn-watering activities in order to maintain adequate water pressure for our customers and firefighting activities, said Matthew Klein, executive director of the Indianapolis Department of Waterworks, owner of Indianapolis Water.(Reporting by Karin Matz, Sam Nelson, Bob Burgdorfer, Meredith Davis, Steve Olafson, Tim Ghianni, Kevin Murphy, Daniel Lovering, Susan Guyett and Brendan O'Brien; Writing by James B.

Casey Anthony Hoax: Defense Attorney Denies She Landed at Orlando Airport By JESSICA HOPPER (@jesshop23) July 19, 2011

Video that showed a Casey Anthony look-a-like hurrying from a private plane at an Orlando airport was an attempt to play a joke on media outlets that have tried to track down Anthony's whereabouts.The plane is owned by Todd Macaluso, a former member of Anthony's defense team. The same plane is believed to have whisked Anthony away after her release from jail Sunday and has been sighted in several cities since her release.Anthony's lawyer Jose Baez told ABC News that the woman at the Orlando Executive Airport today was not Anthony and Macaluso is fooling around.Macaluso could not be reached for comment.After leaving jail Sunday, Anthony was believed to have left the area on Macaluso's private jet.
