[DailyMail] Fleas in two Arizona counties have tested positive for the plague, the same catastrophic Bubonic disease that killed millions, according to officials.
Navajo County Public Health officials confirmed on Friday that fleas in the region tested positive for the disease following similar reports from Coconino County Public Health Services District in Arizona.
Both are located in the northern part of the state.
'Navajo County Health Department is urging the public to take precautions to reduce their risk of exposure to this serious disease, which can be present in fleas, rodents, rabbits and predators that feed upon these animals,' the public health warning states.

Big Friggn Deal. Always a handful of cases in New Mexico every year. One of the unofficial mottos of the state is "Land of Flea, Home of the Plague". Because the medical establishment is aware and the health authorities have procedures and protocols, neighboring state tend to dump victim on them, usually too late in the process, so the state gets the death count.
Simple precautions include wearing long pants outside urban areas and avoiding dead animals. Certainly keeps the infection rate down to a handful.

I seem to see 'new' warning signs posted almost every time we travel to prairie dog areas, so P2K is correct.
Just take some precautions as so noted above.

Prairie dogs, and, in this case, likely squirrels. The animals have to be big enough not to immediately die, so larger than mice or chipmunks. We get it occasionally in east San Diego County mountains

Here in Colorado a group of prairie dogs gets a positive test every year. One year it hit the open space behind my sister's house and wiped them all out. The coyotes had a hard time of it and left after invading the neighborhood looking for food and eating a few small dogs. The bald eagle population that was there moved away too as there was no food source for them.
Been 5 years and the prairie dog still haven't come back.

Heh. Every week there seems to be a new posting for a lost pet on the exit from the development out here in the sticks. Seems the urbanites don't grasp the connection of country living and feeding the local indigenous species.

Even if you caught the plague wouldn't modern medicine help just a little? Seems bringing up the "catastrophic Bubonic disease that killed millions" is more than a little over the top.

Yea, they have plenty of antibiotics that work well against plague and they even have immunizations. We had a series of 3 plague shots we got in the military. Those really fucked me up. Felt like I got a really bad flu for 3 days each time.

Even if you caught the plague wouldn't modern medicine help just a little? Only if your caretaker was aware of this possibility & acted in time. It is possible to contract the plague in NM while driving cross country, and then show up in an Atlanta ER with the usual vague symptoms. Per Wiki: "Patients will die without early treatment, some within 36 hours." A very long time ago, I worked at a NM hospital. The only plague patient we had that year was a child missed on the first vision by a specialist in pediatric infectious illness, who just happened to have the ER job that night. He even thought of plague as a possibility, but dismissed it. Within 24 hours the child was back, got the right treatment & survived.
Plague is a disease that affects humans and other mammals. It is caused by the bacterium, Yersinia pestis. Humans usually get plague after being bitten by a rodent flea that is carrying the plague bacterium or by handling an animal infected with plague. Plague is infamous for killing millions of people in Europe during the Middle Ages. Today, modern antibiotics are effective in treating plague. Without prompt treatment, the disease can cause serious illness or death. Presently, human plague infections continue to occur in the western United States, but significantly more cases occur in parts of Africa and Asia.
Recommended antibiotic treatment for plague:
Begin appropriate IV therapy as soon as plague is suspected. Gentamicin and fluoroquinolones are typically first-line treatments in the United States. Duration of treatment is 10 to 14 days, or until 2 days after fever subsides. Oral therapy may be substituted once the patient improves.

Jeebus, who kicked over the beehive and got em all cranked up?
All previous attempts to drive President Trump out of office have failed, so everyone is transferring their energy to the latest thing, I suspect. Habit extinction burst, "a predictable and common blast of defiance from the recesses of a brain denied familiar rewards."
Here is some great advice from Canine University magazine: “The worst thing you could ever do is give in to a temper tantrum. This goes for adults too, because if you spend enough time observing other people you will notice that people who are used to getting their way will start a temper tantrum immediately after you have refused their request. If you patiently restate your position and stay calm you will see the person eventually give up. Depending upon how long he carries on will tell you how other people have responded to the person in the past. If he has been rewarded for having a fit often enough the extinction burst will be spectacular, enjoy! If it’s short lived, it will be over as quick as it started and you can feel good that you haven’t encouraged it. The best way to eliminate a tantrum is to not give in, wait out the extinction burst (walking away works wonders) and reinforce the absence of the tantrum with your attention as soon as the person stops.”
[DAWN] NAIROBI: Kenya’s defeated opposition coalition vowed on Saturday they would not halt their bid to overturn a "sham" election result, which sparked violent protests that have left 11 people dead.
Protests flared in opposition bastions as soon as President Uhuru Kenyatta was declared the victor on Friday night after an election his rival Raila Odinga claimed was massively rigged.
Kenya is no stranger to post-election violence, and scars still run deep from a disputed 2007 vote which led to two months of ethno-political festivities, leaving 1,100 dead and 600,000 displaced.However protests remained isolated on Saturday, with several hundred demonstrators engaging in running battles with police who quickly dispersed what Interior Minister Fred Matiangi referred to as "criminal elements".

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] In a speech on the occasion of the National Women’s Day, the Tunisian President announced the formation of a committee to study the issue of individual rights and to activate them further and to consider equality between men and women in all fields.
Despite the wide rights of women in Tunisia compared to other Moslem countries, however, arbitration in inheritance is still based on the Sharia or Islamic law, where the man’s share equals to that of two women.
President Beji Caed Essibsi stressed that equality between men and women, which was approved by the Tunisian constitution, should cover all areas, including equality in inheritance. "If we think about harmony, because the constitution dictates this, we must go in this direction."
OPINION: How did the women of Tunisia defeat murderous Moslems?
He said that inheritance is not a religious matter, but rather a matter for human beings. "God and His Messenger have left the matter for human beings to act," he said.
The President also called on the Prime Minister and the Minister of Justice to review and change publication No. 73, which prohibits Tunisian woman from marrying a foreigner if his Islamic faith is not recognized by the Mufti, adding that the Tunisian Constitution recognizes freedom of belief and freedom of conscience in its sixth chapter and holds the state responsible for ensuring the protection of these freedoms.

[All Africa] Embattled Zim-bob-wean Deputy President Emmerson Mnangagwa reportedly offered to resign last week over what he called repeated "public humiliation" by President Bob Muggsy Mugabe Octogenarian President-for-Life of Zim-bob-we who turned the former Breadbasket of Africa into the African Basket Case... 's wife Grace.
According to Zim-bob-we Independent, Mnangagwa handed in his resignation letter to President Mugabe, 93, last week on Monday, but the nonagenarian rejected it saying the deputy president was "jumping the gun".
Unnamed sources claimed that Grace's recent public outburst against Mnangagwa was one of the reasons that he wanted to resign.
The sources said that Mnangagwa believed there was a plot against him by the system to kicking him out.
"The vice-president gave mainly two reasons for seeking to quit. First, he cited public attacks and humiliation by Grace at the Zanu-PF headquarters on July 27 and the same thing two days later, on July 29, in Chinhoyi. Second, Mnangagwa said he now believes there is a plot against him by the system, given recent developments and allegedly false intelligence reports which on many issues made him think Mugabe wanted him to be his successor," the unnamed sources were quoted as saying.
Grace recently told a ruling party youth rally that she wasn't sure if she and the vice president were still friends.
Speaking mostly in Shona, she also said she'd been approached by unnamed people who wanted to take to the streets to remove Mnangagwa from office.
The First Lady had previously told Zim-bob-we's vice presidents - Mnangangwa and Phelekezela Mphoko - at a campaign rally in Chinhoyi that they were serving at her husband's will.

China is key in the Nork dust up. It's not clear they want to step up to the plate.

On the world stage before bullets and bombs actually decide conflict, power and influence are assessed as much by how things look are they are by actual facts. We have let the NorKs look far more potent than they are and are making the Chinese look like the power center with us the hamstrung Goliath. We have warned the Norks, now shut up and move assets to show intent. Next provocation, take some kinetic act to show lack of tolerance and capability.
[MIAMIHERALD] One of Venezuela’s most powerful leaders may have put out an order to kill Florida Sen. Marco Rubio The diminutive 13-year-old Republican U.S. Senator from Florida... , a fervent critic of the South American country’s government, according to intelligence obtained by the U.S. last month.
Though federal authorities couldn’t be sure at the time if the uncorroborated threat was real, they took it seriously enough that Rubio has been guarded by a security detail for several weeks in both Washington and Miami.
Believed to be behind the order: Diosdado Cabello, the influential former military chief and politician from the ruling socialist party who has publicly feuded with Rubio.
At a July 19 Senate hearing, the same day he was first spotted with more security, Rubio repeated his line that Cabello -- who has long been suspected by U.S. authorities of drug trafficking -- is "the Pablo Escobar of Venezuela." A week ago on Twitter, Cabello dubbed the senator "Narco Rubio."

Connecting with the Mexican cartels to carry out a wet job in America, might elicit a warning to certain parties involved.
[TheNewspapers.com] The Director of the Department of information and press of the foreign Ministry of Russia Maria Zakharova commented on the growing tension around the situation on the Korean Peninsula. According to the official representative the Ministry of foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, the parties to the conflict came to a dangerous edge.
"The situation on the Korean Peninsula is indeed very close to the potential likelihood of violent conflict", ‐ said official representative of MFA of Russia.
According to Maria Zakharova, in this situation, non-constructive is the position of the government of North Korea, but the United States.
"If you look at the rhetoric of Washington and the rhetoric of Pyongyang... it became almost the same. In the issue of the nuclear programme of the Korean Peninsula. It turns out that the United States has put himself on a level of rhetoric with the authorities of the DPRK," she said.
Moreover, according to the diplomat, the American highest political circles of the very best such hysteria.
"The story of North Korea as a nuclear problem of the Korean Peninsula as a whole is now played exactly like the American political map," suggested Zakharova.
However, in Washington about the possibility of nuclear war with North Korea, expressed more optimistic. So, the head of the Central intelligence Agency Michael Pompeo, citing intelligence, said that while there is no evidence of the possibility of such negative developments.
I heard a lot of arguments that the U.S. is on the brink of nuclear war with North Korea. But I have no intelligence who would say that we have reached this situation," said Pompeo, unable to restrain himself from another "formidable studs" to the North Korean authorities and adding that "strategic patience" of the United States against recalcitrant Pyongyang has really dried up.
[Free Beacom] CIA Director Mike Pompeo appeared on "Fox News Sunday" to discuss North Korean nuclear development, which he said is proceeding at an "ever-alarming rate."
Pompeo said he could not get into specifics but said that North Korea's progress has gone on for decades. When host Chris Wallace pressed him about how close North Korea is to being able to hit the U.S. mainland, Pompeo said that it was alarming but hard to define.
"It's difficult to put a timeline to these things," Pompeo said. "But each time they test another missile, or if they should conduct a nuclear weapons test, they develop expertise, they expand the envelope, and so it is probably fair to say they are moving toward that at an ever-alarming rate."
Pompeo also said that the problem has been ongoing through previous U.S. administrations, but he argued President Donald Trump was making strides to effect change.
"They've been growing closer for two decades plus ... Previous administrations haven't taken this on," Pompeo said. "President Trump has made it clear that it is his intention to protect the American people."
He pointed specifically to the U.N. sanctions against North Korea.
"You saw this past week we made real progress," Pompeo added. "My hat's off to the president, Secretary Tillerson, Ambassador Haley. They have united the world with sanctions against North Korea: a 15-0 vote. We've seen the Chinese say for among the first times, they believe the answer has to be a denuclearized peninsula. That's exactly the policy for the Trump administration."
[38North] Recent commercial satellite imagery reveals several developments suggesting that North Korea may be accelerating the development of the sea-based leg of its nuclear forces. Of particular interest in the imagery is that netting or tarps have been suspended above both the fore and aft decks of the SINPO-class submarine obscuring any activity taking place beneath them. This was last done prior to the July 9, 2016 test of the Pukguksong-1, suggesting that the North may be preparing for a new series of "at sea" test launches, has undertaken modifications or upgrades to the submarine’s launch systems, or is developing a more advanced version of the Pukguksong-1. Recent ejection tests of an SLBM also support the assessment that an at-sea SLBM test may be forthcoming.
Additionally, imagery of the Mayang-do Navy Shipyard and Submarine Base shows the same number of ROMEO-class submarines that are usually berthed there, indicating that a recent spike in ROMEO activity in the East Sea (Sea of Japan) was a singular rather than force-wide event.
Commercial satellite imagery from August 7, although partially cloud covered, provides a limited look at the status of the SINPO-class[1] experimental ballistic missile submarine (SSBA), the submersible test stand barge and parts of the Mayang-do Navy Shipyard and Submarine Base.
As noted in our July report, sometime during the last week in May, the SINPO-class submarine was repositioned forward along its dock and the submersible test stand barge was moved to a position aft of the submarine (both had previously been in their former positions since December 9, 2016). Since the July report, netting or tarps have been suspended above both the fore and aft decks of the submarine obscuring any activity taking place beneath them. The only other time this was seen was during May-July 2016 and prior to the failed July 9, 2016 Pukguksong-1 test. It is unclear if this activity is signaling a forthcoming at sea SLBM test, although the recent ejection tests would support such an assessment. No activity is noted on or near the submersible test stand barge in the latest image. Continues.
#4
No. Given the submersible barge involved and the previous launch attempts, the NorKs prefer a submerged eject-and-launch, though surface-to-launch is also a possible.

[The Hill] An African-American CEO of a major pharmaceutical company has resigned from a presidential council in a direct response to President Trump's remarks about "many sides" being to blame for violence over the weekend in Charlottesville.
Merck CEO and Chairman Kenneth C. Frazier said he was leaving Trump's American Manufacturing Council, arguing U.S. leaders must "clearly reject expressions of hatred, bigotry and group supremacy."
"Our country's strength stems from its diversity and the contributions made by men and women of different faiths, races, sexual orientations and political beliefs," Frazier said in a statement.
"America's leaders must honor our fundamental values by clearly rejecting expressions of hatred, bigotry and group supremacy, which run counter to the American ideal that all people are created equal," he continued.
"As CEO of Merck, and as a matter of personal conscience, I feel a responsibility to take a stand against intolerance and extremism."

[DAWN] PESHAWAR: A local court on Saturday dismissed the bail petition of a private school’s principal tossed in the clink Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! on the charge of sexually abusing several women and blackmailing them by making their objectionable videos.
Additional district and sessions judge Hayat Gul Mohmand pronounced that keeping in view the evidence on record, the petitioner and accused, Attaullah Marwat, didn’t deserve to be freed on bail.
The accused, who is also the owner of the school, was arrested after a case was registered against him on July 14, 2017, at the Hayatabad cop shoppe on the complaint of a male student, who had claimed the accused had sexually exploited students and teachers and making their objectionable videos by installing secret cameras in different parts of the school.
The accused had recorded a statement with a magistrate on July 19 confessing to have sexually abused several women and making their objectionable videos on the premises.
However, women are made to be loved, not understood... he had denied having sexually abused any of his students. The petitioner’s lawyer contended that none of the alleged victims had deposed against the petitioner and that the entire case was based on hearsay.
The state prosecutor contended that a student of the school had informed the police about the misdeeds of the petitioner. He added that the said student had told the police that the petitioner was involved in exploitation of students and teachers.
The complainant had told the police that the petitioner had sexually exploited students, teachers and outsider women, but none of them disclosed that fearing backlash from him.

Seahawks DE Michael Bennett became the latest NFL player to sit for the national anthem, ahead of Sunday’s preseason game against the Chargers. He referenced the still-unsigned Colin Kaepernick (of whom Bennett has said, "of course he’s being blackballed"), but Bennett said this weekend’s white supremacy rally in Charlottesville and accompanying violence is what spurred him to act.
"Seeing everything in Virginia...I just wanted to be able to use my platform to continuously speak out on injustice," Bennett said.
Bennett remained on the bench with a towel over his shoulders during the playing of the anthem in Los Angeles, rising to join his teammates after the song finished.
Bennett said he will continue to sit for the anthem this season, joining other players like Marshawn Lynch, who did so during the Raiders’ preseason game on Saturday.
Nothing to say about the Antifa groups, of course. Some doublespeak / ass covering follows; 'I love the military' and stuff like that, in the column.

The Obama-Rot starts at the top but has set in
[SanDiegoUnionTribune] A day after Navy Vice Adm. James Crawford III was grilled about his alleged role in scuttling the defense of a Navy SEAL accused of rape, attorneys under his command maneuvered to fire the bulk of the legal team asking the questions.
In a series of motions and responses filed between Aug. 1 and Friday with a special armed forces court in Washington, D.C., the Navy’s attorneys seek to remove three military lawyers assigned to assist the appeal of Senior Chief Special Warfare Operator Keith Barry.
Barry was convicted in 2015 of raping a woman in San Diego. The military judge was faced with deciding whether he secured consent from the female victim during a month-long relationship between 2012 and 2013.
He maintained his innocence even after he was sentenced to prison and given a dishonorable discharge, claiming that she was using the criminal justice system to punish him for ending their relationship.
Seeking clemency, he appealed the military judge’s decision to Rear Adm. Patrick Lorge, the commander of Navy Region Southwest who is now retired. In a sworn affidavit, Lorge admitted that he did not believe Barry was guilty but instead of vacating the verdict took advice from Crawford to let it stand.
Crawford urged him to appease Capitol Hill and White House critics unhappy with the military’s handling of sexual assault cases and warned that going soft on Barry could end Lorge’s Navy career, the retired flag officer wrote in his statement.
Lorge’s words were echoed by a pair of sworn affidavits from junior legal aides who recalled him discussing Crawford’s advice.
"The Barry case has been forwarded to a new convening authority, senior to the original convening authority, and the fact-finding process is underway," said Patricia Babb, spokeswoman for the Office of the Judge Advocate General, in an email to The San Diego Union-Tribune.
