NEW FOR TODAY:
2 TIMOTHY 3:
Gay Marriage Amendment Carries New Support (Supporters say the amendment will win as many as seven new votes from freshmen elected after the amendment received its last vote in 2004. Their support is expected to produce a majority for the amendment in the 100-member chamber.)
AMERICA:
US super-embassy emerges in the heart of Baghdad (Protected by 15ft thick walls and ringed by military guards, it signals the seriousness of America's intentions to retain a large and long-term presence in the country. The £315 million building's existence is meant to be a secret.)
ANTI-CHRISTIANITY:
Does 'PG' rating mean 'pro-God'? (A new family film featuring miracles and a pro-God theme has earned a rating of "PG" from the Motion Picture Association of America due to fears it might offend people who have no faith or a different faith.) <- Now I've heard it all!!!
ARMAGEDDON/EZEKIEL 38-39 PLAYER(S):
China's military space power growing (Asian superpower will pursue offensive anti-satellite system)
Russia faces demographic disaster (The country's population is declining by at least 700,000 people each year, leading to slow depopulation of the northern and eastern extremes of Russia, the emergence of hundreds of uninhabited "ghost villages" and an increasingly aged workforce.)
BIG BROTHER:
Upcoming Launch of the New 'Tag and Track' System and Location Services (The technology locates and/or tracks vehicles, objects, assets or people. Our customers will deploy a portable receiver or reader devices network whether inside or outside a building which will be used to pick up the signal transmitted by our "Tag and Track" Tracker with its integrated RFID Tag.)
High hopes for drone in LA skies (Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drone aircraft, are about to be launched for the first time by the police in Los Angeles.)
CANADA:
Secret meetings set? (Politicians, royalty and tycoons from Europe and North America have been meeting secretly every year since 1954, spawning a string of conspiracy theories.)
MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS:
Experimental Drug Activates "Death" Receptors on Cancer Cells (Results show Apo2L shrunk tumors in one patient with sarcoma and stabilized cancer growth in about 56 percent of study participants.)
Gardenia Fruit Compound may Treat Diabetes (A new study shows the extract contains a chemical called genipin, which may target some of the pancreatic dysfunctions of diabetes.)
Skin Rash Determines Survival in Liver Cancer Patients (When researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute looked at the effects of lapatinib, a new chemotherapy drug for liver cancer, they found the development of a skin rash was directly linked to how the patient responded to the treatment.)
NATURAL DISASTERS:
55 Die in China's Worst Flooding in 30 years (At least 55 people have been killed and 12 are missing amid the worst flooding in eastern China in three decades, the government said on Thursday.)
Are there really more hurricanes? (AS THE season for hurricanes cranks up, so do the arguments about what is causing them. Now a meteorologist claims that the apparent increase in recent years - blamed on global warming - is an illusion.)
Merapi Spews Biggest Clouds Yet; Indonesia Evacuates Residents (Indonesia's Mount Merapi volcano released its biggest clouds of superheated gasses and ash in almost a month, sending nearby villagers fleeing for safety and prompting the government to evacuate residents from the area.)
Spain heading for worst drought since 1947 as reservoir levels fall (Spain's reservoirs are in a worse state than last year as the country heads for what some experts are predicting will be the worst drought for 60 years.)
TERRORISTS/TERRORISM:
Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi Killed in Air Raid (Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, al-Qaida's leader in Iraq who led a bloody campaign of suicide bombings and kidnappings, has been killed in an air raid north of Baghdad... a major victory in the U.S.-led war in Iraq and the broader war on terror. Iraq's prime minister and U.S. officials said his identity was confirmed by fingerprints and a first-hand look at his face.)
Police Detain a Man at British Parliament (Police briefly locked down Britain's Houses of Parliament on Wednesday after a powdery substance was sprayed in the main lobby.)
NEW FOR YESTERDAY:
EUROPEAN UNION:
Turkey sleepwalking into crisis with EU (Far from accelerating Turkey’s march towards membership, the start of entry talks last Oct. 3 seems to have prompted a step back on both sides, with Turks questioning Europe’s sincerity, while many Europeans fret about whether they want Turkey at all.)
ISRAEL HAPPENINGS:
Israel braces for new terror war (Army issues warning as terror leaders detail to WND '3rd intifada')
New Religious-Zionist Pamphlet: "Our Way at This Time" ("We are in the midst of the Divine process of the Return to Zion. We are seeing, with our own eyes, the fulfillment of the vision of the Prophets and of our prayers after 2,000 years of exile. At the same time, we are also in a period of crisis, placing before us fundamental questions as to the way in which this vision will be fulfilled and how we are to relate to the difficult events we are experiencing.) <- FEATURE!!!
LAST DAYS DECEPTIONS:
Europe's Oldest "Book" Read With High-Tech Imaging (The text, Obbink said, is "a philosophical treatise about the nature of the gods and the soul.")
MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS:
Beta-Blockers: Friend or Foe? (A recent report linked the class of blood pressure-lowering drug known as beta-blockers with an increased stroke risk, and study authors concluded they should not be a first-choice option for treating hypertension. Now, Canadian researchers are questioning this in a new meta-analysis.)
Better Drugs for Kidney Cancer (New research reveals the drug sunitinib malate (Sutent) is a more effective agent for the treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) than cytokine.)
Black Women: Higher Death Rate for Breast Cancer (Black women have a lower rate of breast cancer than white women but suffer a higher mortality rate. Now, a new study reveals when younger, premenopausal, black women get breast cancer, they are more than twice as likely as older women -- black or white -- to get an aggressive breast cancer.)
Breathing With Emphysema (Patients with severe forms of the disease can opt for surgery to cut off part of the lung, but it can be risky. Now, there's an easier solution under study.)
HPV Testing Finds Precancerous Lesions Better than Pap Smears (Cervical cancer can be successfully treated if caught early. If precancerous cells are detected, it can even be prevented.)
Survival After Cardiogenic Shock (A new study revealed treating these patients with emergency angioplasty or bypass surgery could significantly increase their survival rates.)
X-rays Target Brain Tumors, Spare Healthy Tissue (Scientists have developed a method for treating brain and spinal cord tumors in rats that delivers radiation to a cancerous growth while doing little or no damage to surrounding healthy tissues.)
NATURAL DISASTERS:
11,000 Flee Indonesia Volcano (MOUNT MERAPI, Indonesia - Officials evacuated 11,000 villagers from around Mount Merapi volcano as it shot out lava and superheated clouds of gas, authorities said Tuesday.)
Study: Clean Air, Global Warming Mean More Hurricanes (Cleaner air and more Atlantic hurricanes may come as a pair, according to a new study comparing rising global sea surface temperatures with sun-blocking pollution particles.)
OCCULT:
Dark carnival of Satanists meet in Hollywood (Satanists from around the world gathered in Hollywood for a mass to mark June 6, 2006, or "6-6-6," and to mock fears over the date known by dark believers as the number of the beast.)
ONE WORLD CURRENCY:
US to forge future of European financial markets (After years of jostling and failed talks between the British, French and German markets, the deal-making ability of US operators NYSE and Nasdaq looks set to create a trans-Atlantic, rather than pan-European, trading area. The New York Stock Exchange Group said Thursday it planned to acquire the European stock market Euronext for about 10 billion dollars (7.7 billion euros) in cash and stock, creating the first trans-Atlantic securities market.)
SCIENCE:
Harvard funds human cloning (The world’s richest university has put its clout behind medical research opposed by President Bush)
Scientists to try to clone human embryos (Scientists have long held out the hope of "therapeutic cloning" against diseases like diabetes, Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injury. But such work has run into ethical objections, a ban on federal funding and the embarrassment of a spectacular scandal in South Korea.)
Tiny Robots Control Cockroaches (The devices work by at first fooling the bugs into believing the devices are fellow roaches and then leading the insects away from darkness into light, according to a recent announcement made by the European Union Information Society Technologies Program.)
Have a blessed, peaceful day in the Lord! Peg.
