Winds during thunderstorms powerful as tornado

Straight-line wind speeds recorded Monday at Lahoma in Garfield County were as powerful as an EF-1 tornado and a Category 2 hurricane. The Oklahoma Mesonet recorded winds at 96 mph during Monday night’s thunderstorm. Wind speeds with EF-1 tornadoes are between 86 and 110 mph, and 95 mph is the highest wind speed in Category 1 hurricanes. “What we saw yesterday can be more damaging than a weak tornado in many cases,” said forecaster Marc Austin with the National Weather…

Rising fears sink shares of global banks

Mounting concerns over the potential fallout of Europe’s debt crisis and the prospect of squeezed profits from low interest rates are slamming the shares of the world’s banks. Not only are there fears of the potential impact of the debt troubles, but also the new reality of at least two more years of low rates in the United States, which will further pressure thinning lending margins. Investors are looking ahead to 2012, when a slowing economy is expected to take a deep toll on profits in the financial sector. As the debt woes in the 17-member euro zone spread beyond just the smaller countries, some of the world’s major banks have tried to calm concerns about contagion by emphasizing how much better capitalized they are today as compared with the crisis of three years ago.

French bond yields spiked on the news, causing the spread between the country’s 10-year bonds and 10-year German bunds to climb to a record 87 basis...

Poll: Majority of public has lost faith in government ability to fix economy

Barely one in four Americans has confidence that the federal government has the ability to fix economic problems, and most share Standard & Poor’s indictment of the country’s policy-making process, according to a new Washington Post poll. The spreading lack of confidence is matched by an upsurge in dissatisfaction with the country’s political system and a widespread sense that S&P’s characterization of U.S. policy-making as increasingly “less stable, less effective and less predictable” is a fair one. The results have sharp edges for both...

Would-be terrorists looking to capitalize on U.K. riots

NEW YORK — Islamist extremists are trying to capitalize on the riots engulfing Britain, calling on their followers to help incite further violence so that a terror attack can be launched amid the chaos. Via “jihadist” websites, the extremists say English-fluent Muslims should infiltrate social media with messages that encourage the rioters so that the police remain “preoccupied” by the disturbances, according to the Washington-based monitoring group SITE. The extremists are characterizing the violence as “useful” for London-based terror cells, saying the...
