From MOSNEWS:
Terrorists will paralyze the Internet on August 26, a Russian expert in antivirus programs said on Tuesday.
Speaking at a conference hosted by Russian Information Agency Novosti, Aleksandr Gostev from Kaspersky Labs said information on this terrorist attack was published on special websites. He did not elaborate.
First of all, the United States and Western Europe will suffer from the attack, Gostev was quoted by the agency as saying. The head of the labs, Yevgeny Kaspersky, reminded the audience that similar attacks had earlier paralyzed the Internet in South Korea. He added that it would be “impossible” to stop terrorist organizations if they “get down to business”.

A Site For All of Us Sinners
The Confraternity of Penitents
The Confraternity of Penitents is similar to a Catholic Third Order in that its members live a Rule of Life in their own homes. Saint Francis of Assisi originally gave this Rule of Life to medieval penitents. May the Holy Spirit guide you, as a little child of God, as you discern whether our Holy Lord is calling you to embrace a life of Catholic penance, conversion, prayer, and sacrament, for the glory of Almighty God, in love of Him and of all.

Russia's 8/24?
From CNSNews:
The near-simultaneous crashes of two Russian passenger planes shortly after taking off from the same airport late Tuesday prompted concerns of a possible terrorist attack, perhaps linked to forthcoming elections in Chechnya.
A Tupolev Tu-134 flying from Moscow to Volgograd crashed in the Tula region 90 miles south of Moscow around 11 p.m. local time, killing all 43 passengers and crew aboard, according to the Russian emergency ministry.
At almost exactly the same time, a Tu-154, a larger airliner, went missing on a flight from Moscow to a Black Sea resort. Its wreckage was later found in southern Russia's Rostov region.
The larger aircraft, operated by Siberia Airlines, departed from Moscow's Domodedovo airport 40 minutes before the other plane, a Volga-Avia Express flight, took off from the same location.
In a statement posted on its website, Siberia Airlines confirmed that its flight 1047, carrying 46 passengers and crew, had disappearing from radar screens at about 11 p.m. The wreckage had been located and "according to the available information, all passengers and flight crew members are dead."

Why Are People Who Visit Island Getting Sick?
From CNN:
The wide scope of an outbreak that sickened hundreds of travelers to a Lake Erie resort island will make it difficult to find a source for the illness, infectious disease experts said.
Some say they suffered nausea and diarrhea after traveling to South Bass Island in recent weeks, while some say they fell ill in early June.
Others never set foot on the quaint tourist getaway, only stopping nearby.
"It's not like you have 600 people who went to the same wedding, and they all had the coleslaw," said Brian Harrington, a professor of public health at the Medical College of Ohio.
The number of gastrointestinal illnesses rose again on Monday, with 750 people now saying they fell ill after visiting the island and the surrounding area. The island is about halfway between Toledo and Cleveland.
