What is the SUPERBUG NDM-1 bacteria? ...Resistant to all antibiotics and is easily spread!

Klebsiella pneumoniae
"The World Health Organisation yesterday announced that the swine flu pandemic is over. Unfortunately, there is a new threat: NDM-1 bacteria.

Lancet Infectious Diseases reports that 50 cases of people infected with this new superbug - potentially more of a risk to hospital patients than the notorious MRSA - have so far been identified.

The researchers warn that the potential for NDM-1 bacteria to become endemic worldwide is 'clear and frightening' and say we must develop new drugs to fight the threat now."

"Some of my Panamanian friends point out that the United States government (IRS) wants to force Panama to “open its books.” And that to do so would be “one way street” information sharing.

This is because the U.S. doesn’t have any tax information Panama wants!

That’s because Panama, unlike the United States, has a sensible “territorial tax system.” Panama doesn’t tax earnings outside its national borders. So Panama therefore doesn’t care what Panamanians earn in the U.S. or anywhere else."

"The agenda of the United-Nations-funded and -run International Baccalaureate Curriculum is making massive inroads into America's public schools, with operations already established in more than 1,000 locations.

Worldview Weekend President and Founder Brannon Howse says the program is trying to train American students to embrace an anti-Christian worldview.

'This U.N. curriculum is extremely hostile to Christians. It's hostile to American values and ideas and very big on humanism, redistribution of wealth, and very big on pluralism and that all religions are equal,' Howse told WND."

BBC News - New 'superbug' found in UK hospitals

E. coli
"Although there have only been about 50 cases identified in the UK so far, scientists fear it will go global. Tight surveillance and new drugs are needed says Lancet Infectious Diseases.

"The fear would be that it gets into a strain of bacteria that is very good at being transmitted between patients”

"NDM-1 can exist inside different bacteria, like E.coli, and it makes them resistant to one of the most powerful groups of antibiotics - carbapenems"

DID YOU KNOW THERE WAS A 100% CHANCE OF AN EARTHQUAKE TODAY!

YES! There's a 100 percent chance of an earthquake today! Though millions of persons may never experience an earthquake, they are very common occurrences on this planet. So today -- somewhere -- an earthquake will occur.

It may be so light that only sensitive instruments will perceive its motion; it may shake houses, rattle windows, and displace small objects; or it may be sufficiently strong to cause property damage, death, and injury.

It is estimated that about 700 shocks each year have this capability when centered in a populated area. But fortunately, most of these potentially destructive earthquakes center in unpopulated areas far from civilization.

Since a major portion of the world's earthquakes each year center around the rim of the Pacific Ocean (Ring of Fire), referred to by seismologists as the circum-Pacific belt, this is the most probable location for today's earthquake. But it could hit any location, because no region is entirely free of earthquakes.

Stating that an earthquake is going to occur today is not really "predicting earthquakes". To date, they cannot be predicted. But anyone, on any day, could make this statement and it would be true. This is because several million earthquakes occur annually; thereby, thousands occur each day, although most are too small to be located. The problem, however, is in pinpointing the area where a strong shock will center and when it will occur.

Earthquake prediction is a future possibility, though. Just as the Weather Bureau now predicts hurricanes, tornadoes, and other severe storms, the NEIC may one day issue forecasts on earthquakes. Earthquake research was stepped up after the Alaska shock in 1964. Today, research is being conducted by the USGS and other federal and state agencies, as well as universities and private institutions. Earthquake prediction may some day become a reality, but only after much more is learned about the earthquake mechanism
