Dengue fever is spreading across Latin America and the Caribbean in one of the worst outbreaks in decades, causing agonizing joint pain for hundreds of thousands of people and killing nearly 200 so far this year. The mosquitoes that carry dengue are thriving in expanded urban slums scattered with water-collecting trash and old tires. Experts say dengue is approaching record levels this year as many countries enter their wettest months. "If we do not slow it down, it will intensify and take a greater social and economic toll on these countries," said Dr. Jose Luis San Martin, head of anti-dengue efforts for the Pan American Health Organization, a regional public health agency. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta has posted advisories this year for people visiting Latin American and Caribbean destinations to use mosquito repellant and stay inside screened areas whenever possible. "The danger is that the doctors at home don't recognize the dengue," said Dr. Wellington Sun, the chief of the CDC's dengue branch in San Juan. "The doctors need to raise their level of suspicion for any traveler who returns with a fever." Dengue has already damaged the economies of countries across the region by driving away tourists, according to a document prepared for a PAHO conference beginning Monday in Washington. Some countries have focused mosquito eradication efforts on areas popular with tourists. Mexico sent hundreds of workers to the resorts of Puerto Vallarta, Cancun and Acapulco this year to try to avert outbreaks. Health ministers from across the region meet at the PAHO conference and San Martin said he will urge them to devote more resources to dengue fever. The tropical virus was once thought to have been nearly eliminated from Latin America, but it has steadily gained strength since the early 1980s. Now, officials fear it could emerge as a pandemic similar to one that became a leading killer of children in Southeast Asia following World War II. Officials say the virus is likely to grow deadlier in part because tourism and migration are circulating four different strains across the region. A person exposed to one strain may develop immunity to that strain - but subsequent exposure to another strain makes it more likely the person will develop the hemorrhagic form. "The main concern is what's happening in the Americas will recapitulate what has happened in Southeast Asia, and we will start seeing more and more severe types of cases of dengue as time progresses," Sun said. The disease - known as "bonebreak fever" because of the pain - can incapacitate patients for as long as a week with flu-like symptoms. A deadly hemorrhagic form, which also causes internal and external bleeding, accounts for less than 5 percent of cases but has shown signs of growing. So far this year, 630,356 dengue cases have been reported in the Americas - most in Brazil, Venezuela, or Colombia - with 12,147 cases of hemorrhagic fever and 183 deaths, according to the Pan American Health Organization. With the spread expected to accelerate during the upcoming rainy season in many countries, cases this year could exceed the 1,015,000 reported in 2002, according to San Martin. In Puerto Rico, where 5,592 suspected cases and three deaths have been reported, some lawmakers called this week for the health secretary to resign. In the Dominican Republic, which has reported 25 deaths this year, the health department announced Thursday that it would train 2.5 million public school students to encourage parents and neighbors to eliminate standing water. Researchers have not yet developed a vaccine against dengue and Sun said that for now, the only way to stop the virus is to contain the mosquito population - a task that relies of countless, relentless individual efforts including installing screen doors and making sure mosquitoes are not breeding in garbage. "It's like telling people to stop smoking," he said. "They may do it for a while, but they don't do it on a consistent basis and without doing that, it's not effective." While dengue is increasing around the developing world, the problem is most dramatic in the Americas, according to the CDC. Health officials believe the resurgence of the malaria-like illness is due partly to a premature easing of eradication programs in the 1970s. Migration and tourism also have carried new strains of the virus across national borders, even into the United States, which had largely wiped out the disease after a 1922 outbreak that infected a half-million people. Mexico has been struggling with an alarming increase in the deadly hemorrhagic form of dengue, which now accounts for roughly one in four cases. The government has confirmed 3,249 cases of hemorraghic dengue for the year through Sept. 15, up from 1,924 last year. The CDC says there is no drug to treat hemorrhagic dengue, but proper treatment, including rest, fluids and pain relief, can reduce death rates to about 1 percent. San Martin said he use the meetings starting Monday to urge enforcement of trash disposal regulations, more investment in mosquito control and new incentives for communities to participate. http://news.aol.com/story/ar/_a/dengue-fever-surges-in-latin-america/20070930122409990001?ncid=NWS00010000000001

They are the biggest members of the crowded asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and scientists hope that by studying them up close, some of the secrets of the early solar system will be revealed. Most importantly, Dawn has three ion engines that will provide a gentle yet increasingly accelerating thrust. Electrons will bombard Dawn's modest supply of xenon gas, and the resulting ions will shoot out into space, nudging the spacecraft along. Even "Star Wars" had only twin ion engines with its T.I.E. Fighters, Rayman noted earlier in the week. "Dawn does the 'Star Wars' T.I.E. Fighters one better," he said. www.yahoo.com

But the new system would let cameras analyze images in real time 24 hours a day. Ed Yohnka, spokesman for the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois, said he was concerned that more cameras and more sophisticated technology would lead to abuses of authority. "It is incumbent on the city to ensure that there are practices and procedures in place to sort of watch the watchers," he said. lol watch the watchers thats an eerie statement www.yahoo.com

Microsoft has been plagued by Xbox 360 problems in recent months. In July, the software maker said it would spend more than $1 billion to repair broken Xbox 360 consoles, and in August it disclosed that some Wireless Racing Wheel game controllers were overheating and smoking. lol omgosh FIRE FIRE Within hours after die-hard fans finally got their hands on a copy of "Halo 3," blogs brimmed with reports that special limited-edition packaging is scratching the video game disks.Microsoft Corp., which owns the studio that makes "Halo 3," responded quickly on its Xbox Web site with details for a replacement program. Customers can fill out a form and send in their scratched limited-edition disks for a free exchange through the end of December. A Microsoft spokesman and a member of the company's outside PR firm did not immediately respond to calls and e-mails from The Associated Press requesting more information Microsoft is selling the limited-edition version, which comes in a tin decorated with the "Halo 3" logo, for $70. A regular copy of the game costs $60, and a "legendary" version, which comes with a replica of the helmet worn by game protagonist Master Chief, costs $130. The game officially went on sale early Tuesday.Richard Mitchell, the lead writer of the Xbox 360 Fanboy blog, said one of the disks that came in his limited-edition set is scratched but the damage didn't seem to interfere with its playing. The AP received several review copies of "Halo 3" in limited-edition tins. Both the game disk and an "essentials" disk had come loose from plastic housing designed to keep them in place. The game disk had been scratched but seemed to work fine. lOOk at all this HaLo stuff man mega profits for Mr GaTez http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/08470B23-FA08-41E4-996E-8A61A3EB468B/0/bannerdefault.jpghttp://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/A3907E63-FE73-4F63-8AED-C4AA3AF1AF79/0/boxHaloLegendblack.jpg Legendary Edition: Individually numbered and available while supplies last, the Legendary Edition includes a copy of Halo 3 in a collectible Spartan Mjolnir Mark VI helmet case, as well as an exclusive collection of storyboard art and the same bonus disc included with the Limited Edition.

http://www.lcdrepair.net/backlightpurchase.html you just gotta figure out which one it says look in back panel of monitor for this http://laptops.home.att.net/lcd-lable.htm

OK If it was mine I would disassemble it and remove the CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) and replace it first. Those break easy and arnt expensive. It probably is a certain watt, size, volts. Im betting there is a generic replacement from sharp or somewhere. From what I have read on that site I gave the link to there is only 2 wires that you have to unsolder and re solder when you have the new one. http://lcdrepair.net/lcd-repair.htm go here watch this the bulb is 26.00 new ALOT less than 400.00 lol

wow you are going to maybe have trouble finding a replacement screen for that..maybe a refurbished one. heres some info When your laptop screen works, but is so dim that you can only read it in a dark room after eating carrots all day, the problem is likely the backlight or the inverter. Replacing a Dell notebook backlight provides a somewhat standard illustration, and I show how to replace a Sony laptop inverter for variety. All the screen related laptop repairs are highly similar, in fact, the components are often made by a single manufacturer, with Sharp being a leading supplier. Of course, you can always go the homemade laptop route:-). I just posted the first draft of a series of laptop troubleshooting flowcharts, starting with laptop power problems, when the laptop just won't turn on. http://www.fonerbooks.com/laptop_8.htm http://www.fonerbooks.com/laptop/Sony_9.jpg http://www.daileyint.com/hmdpc/laptop/display.gif
