Gulf and Southeast brace for Ivan's tropical storm return
Gulf and Southeast coastlines face a renewed threat as Ivan regenerates into a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico. Forecasters warn of 50 mph winds and 5 to 10 inches of rain with potential coastal flooding and beach erosion along Texas and Louisiana shores. Offshore crews head home as authorities urge preparations in Cameron Parish and low-lying areas. A tropical storm warning is in effect from the Mississippi River mouth to Sargent, Texas.

Hurricane Jeanne Could Threaten U S Southeast Coast Again
Hurricane Jeanne now appears likely to loop back toward land and threaten the U S Southeast, with forecasters warning residents from Florida to Maryland to monitor the storm. It was about 485 miles east of Great Abaco Island moving west at 5 mph with sustained winds near 9 mph. Fatalities in Haiti exceed 1,070 as the system remains dangerous with surf and rip currents along the southeastern U S coast while Karl weakens at sea and Lisa remains distant in the Atlantic.

Bush pushes five year extension of tax cuts debate continues
Lawmakers moved toward final passage of a five year extension after Bush resisted a one year deal paid for by closing corporate loopholes. The package would preserve child tax credits at 1000 dollars, keep a 10 percent bracket, and extend marriage penalty relief, AMT relief, and business breaks totaling about 131.4 billion over ten years. Some senators sought broader corporate tax cuts but were blocked amid election pressures. Europe imposes 11 percent tariffs tied to an illegal export subsidy, with penalties rising as talks proceed.

Military eyes biggest changes in international bases since the 1950s
Washington reports that over the next decade the United States will abandon 35 percent of Cold War era bases abroad while expanding a lean network of forward operating sites in Asia Africa the Middle East and Eastern Europe to support counterterrorism efforts. The plan foresees the most profound overseas realignment since the 1950s with troop withdrawals from Germany and South Korea offset by new lily pad bases.
