Half a million people in the Indian state of Bihar remain stranded in villages which have been devastated by massive flooding, officials say. A BBC correspondent reports chaotic scenes as soldiers try to reach those cut off and people attempt to scramble from rooftops into rescue boats. With 1.2 million people homeless, India is struggling to cope with the crisis. The flood waters are spreading to new areas, and conditions in relief camps are overcrowded and unsanitary. The floods are known to have killed at least 75 people in Bihar but the death toll could climb once the situation in remote areas emerges. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7591006.stm More news from the same site: An earthquake in south-western China has killed 22 people and injured more than 100, state media says. The 6.1 magnitude earthquake struck at 1630 local time (0730 GMT), close to the town of Panzhihua in Sichuan province, near the border with Yunnan. Xinhua news agency reported that attempts to assist survivors were being hampered by heavy rain. Both provinces were severely affected by a devastating earthquake in May which left almost 70,000 people dead. I went there looking for Chinese weather charts. Stupid I know; to say the site is a crap-fest is to invite their security to get on my back once more. And issuing death threats to certain stupid BBC officials is a dangerous sport these days. Pity.

5.2 2008/09/01 11:01 -22.9 -174.9 Tonga Region
5.5 2008/09/01 07:06 -15.7 -176.4 Fiji Region 5.2 2008/09/01 06:15 -23.3 -179.9 S Of Fiji Islands 5.1 2008/09/01 05:31 -15.3 -176.4 Fiji Region Take them down! Wait, two almost pairs means both storms if said storms ar in the same small basin? As of mid day 1st September their speeds were 115 mph and 50 mph, Gustav and Hanna, respectively. And if the broaching of Gustav brings a quake to the west coast of ther USA? Does that mean the arrival of a low or an high onland at any time and any place can also signify an earhtquake. And was the death of hundreds just to see worth it? I have to confess that my interest at least would never have been piqued had they not been interesting. But the deaths are down to people like the Major of New Orleans or what used to be New Orleans in the days when it was a major city. I wonder how many died in socialist Cuba. It would emphasise my point if there were fewer than in the free countries nearby. |

Powerful Gustav leaves Cuba; New Orleans evacuates By WILL WEISSERT – 15 hours ago HAVANA (AP) — Cubans returned from shelters to find flooded homes and washed-out roads Sunday, but no deaths were reported after a monstrous Hurricane Gustav roared across the island and into the oil-rich Gulf of Mexico. Gustav hit the Isla de la Juventud south of the Cuban mainland just short of a top-scale Category 5 hurricane with screaming 140 mph (220 kph) winds that toppled telephone poles and fruit trees, shattered windows and leveled some homes: http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5g...Gi8owD92THN402 |

It would emphasise my point if there were fewer than in the free countries nearby. Gustav earlier killed 94 people by triggering floods and landslides in Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Jamaica. Jamaica's Emergency Management office on Sunday raised Gustav's death toll there to 10 from seven, and Haiti upped its count from 66 to 76. But in Cuba, none of the reported injuries were life-threatening. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5g...Gi8owD92THN402 I doubt you can call Haiti a free country but on a scale of chimpanzee to human, it is more like the USA than Cuba in its style of government. Sounds daft does it not? Then you find out the USA's dirtiest secret: Mexico is considered a free country in every aspect of USA life except its political arena. Which explains the border patrol mentality, it's soooo Russian. Pity it only works on Manuels and not Gustavs. |
