Two Significant Earthquakes Rattle Virgin Islands In One Day
Contributed by Andrea Milam,Monday, 21 August 2006

Monday, August 14, was a busy day for seismologists in the Virgin Islands. Two significant earthquakes shook the region — a 5.0 on Monday morning, and a 4.5 on Monday evening.A magnitude 5.0 earthquake rocked the territory at 9:09 a.m., according to the Puerto Rico Seismic Network.The earthquake originated at 19.022 degrees north, 64.636 west, or 50 miles north-northeast of Charlotte Amalie, at a depth of 13.3 miles.At 9:30 that evening, a magnitude 4.5 quake again rattled the territory. The evening’s quake was centered at 19.008 degrees north, 64.728 west, or 47 miles north-northeast of Charlotte Amalie, at a depth of 4.3 miles.

August 14 was an active day, with more than 30 recorded earthquakes, most in the 2.0-3.0 range, according to the Puerto Rico Seismic Network. Monday morning’s quake was the second strongest in the region for 2006.

A magnitude 5.3 earthquake, located at 19.358 degrees north, 63.787 degrees west, occurred on March 2 at 11:35 p.m. Monday morning’s quake was enough to shake items such as potted plants and, in some cases, send residents scurrying outside, but no significant damage was reported.

LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(MASS CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Fourth tropical depression forms in Atlantic Mon Aug 21, 6:12 PM ET

MIAMI (Reuters) - The fourth tropical depression of the 2006 Atlantic hurricane season formed on Monday in the far eastern Atlantic and was expected to become Tropical Storm Debby as it approached the southernmost Cape Verde islands. By 5 p.m. (2100 GMT), the depression was about 250 miles southeast of the islands, and moving toward the west-northwest at 12 miles per hour, the Miami-based U.S. National Hurricane Center said.It was too early to predict whether the weather system would eventually reach the Gulf of Mexico or the U.S. East coast, both battered last year by a record hurricane season that produced 28 storms, including Hurricane Katrina.Oil traders, wary of storms since hurricanes ripped through oil and gas platforms in the Gulf in 2004 and 2005, said they were keeping an eye on the depression.

The hurricane center said the government of the Cape Verde islands had issued a tropical storm warning as the depression's maximum sustained winds reached 35 mph (55 kph).Once it reaches 39 mph (63 kph), the system will be categorized as a tropical storm and be given a name, Debby. That was expected to occur within the next 24 hours, the hurricane center said.The 2006 Atlantic hurricane season has been quiet to date. So far, only three tropical storms have formed -- Alberto, Beryl and Chris. Strong wind shear -- the difference in wind speed and direction at different levels of the atmosphere -- has disrupted some of the tropical weather systems that eventually become cyclones.In comparison, nine storms developed by August 7 last year.Last year Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans after coming ashore in Louisiana on August 29, killing around 1,300 people and Hurricane Wilma, later in the season, at one point became the strongest Atlantic storm on record.Hurricane experts say it is not unusual for the first two or three months of the June 1 to November 30 storm season to see little activity. The worst part of the season is usually between mid-August and late October.

Mekong flooding claims dozens
Tuesday, August 22, 2006 Posted: 0104 GMT (0904 HKT)

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (Reuters) Cambodia and Vietnam are trying to rush aid to thousands of people left homeless from heavy rain that have claimed more than four dozen lives in the two countries.

In Cambodia, torrential rains swelling the annual Mekong floods have killed at least eight Cambodians and damaged several thousand hectares (acres) of paddy fields, officials said.

The government was seeking United Nations help to get food to thousands of villagers made homeless by the floods, Nhim Vanda, deputy chairman of the national disaster committee, told Reuters on Monday.Cambodia's Red Cross had distributed food to nearly 10,000 people in the southern province of Kampot, the hardest hit, but others were still awaiting help, provincial governor Thach Khorn said.Four people were killed in Kampot, where the floods had damaged more than 4,000 hectares (10,000 acres) of paddy fields, he said.

In the western province of Kampong Speu, a 14-year-old girl was swept away by a flash flood while cutting grass to feed cattle and two children drowned in the northeastern province of Kratie, officials said.Nhim Vanda said that while the floods had damaged rice crops in the short term, they might be beneficial overall.Floods have killed people and destroyed infrastructures, but at the same
time they are also bringing fertile marsh soil,he said.The floods also damaged roads, bridges and schools, officials said.In Vietnam, flooding, landslides and lightning have killed 15 people and left one missing since this past weekend in Vietnam, bringing the country's toll in a week of torrential rain to 42, according to reports in that country.Thousands have been evacuated to higher ground
as water levels in the northern region's main rivers were expected to continue rising with more rainfall forecast for the coming week, state media quoted a government report as saying on Sunday.Northern Vietnam is not the country's key area for rice production, but more rain also was expected in the southern Mekong Delta rice basket in coming days. However, most of the summer-autumn rice crop has already been harvested.Natural disasters, especially floods and storms, kill several hundred people in Vietnam each year, mainly during the storm season between May and October.

This year's rains and floods caused no damage to the coffee crop in the Central Highlands where coffee trees are planted on higher ground.Officials said four people were killed in a landslide in the northern province of Yen Bai on Saturday.

Lightning killed two people in Nghe An province and two more on the outskirts of capital Hanoi while five were swept away in flash flooding.Sunday's Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper said two people drowned as their boat capsized early on Saturday on a river in the southern province of Dong Nai.

Another man was swept away and reported missing in the northern province of Phu Tho after he tried to save his fish pond, the government report said.As of Friday, at least 27 people were reported killed in northern and central regions of the Southeast Asian country.Copyright 2006 Reuters.

REVELATION 6:7-8
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Mosquito Infestation' in China Leaves 26 Dead
By Osman Erol, Cihan News Agency, Beijing,Monday, August 21, 2006,zaman.com

In China, the death toll stemming from the mosquito-borne disease Encephalitis B rose to 26.With the seven additional deaths, the encephalitis death toll reached 26 in Shanghai province, northern China, reporters said. Officials took all emergency precautions to bring the outbreak under control. Children and those residing outside of cities make up 82 percent of those affected by the diseases, Shanghai Province Health Bureau reported. Encephalitis can appear in people who have been bitten by mosquitoes carrying the disease. The disease leads to the inflammation of the brain and subsequent paralysis of the central nervous system, if left untreated, leaves 60 percent of those infected dead. Each year 50,000 “Encephalitis B” cases appear in Asia, and 15,000 result in death, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) records.The outbreak first appeared in Shanghai on July 13.

Train crashes kill 60 in Egypt and Spain

TRAIN accidents in Egypt and Spain killed more than 60 people yesterday while the Channel Tunnel was also closed to passengers following a fire. A passenger train travelling towards a railway station in northern Egypt collided with a second train, killing at least 58 people and injuring 143 — in the latest accident on Egypt’s dilapidated third-class railway service.In Spain at least five people died in a train derailment in northern Spain.The six-carriage, long-distance train was carrying 460 passengers.

A spokeswoman for the state rail company RENFE said the train had derailed shortly before 4pm local time (3pm Irish time) near the town of Villada, in the Palencia province of northern Spain. There was no immediate indication of terrorism or other foul play, said Civil Guard spokesman Ruben Marcos.The train was heading from the northwest Galicia region through the Basque region toward the border with France when it derailed in the station in Villada.The accident came just over a month after 43 people were killed when a subway train derailed in downtown Valencia in eastern Spain. That accident — the worst for a subway system in Spain — was blamed on excessive speed.Egypt’s official Middle East News Agency quoted Minister of Health Hatem el-Gabaly on the death toll for the accident that happened at 7am local time (5am Irish time) outside the town of Qalyoub, about 12 miles north of the capital Cairo.Mr el-Gabaly said four of the wounded were in a critical condition.

The front part of one train was crumpled in, while mangled carriages from both trains lay on their sides or on the edge of a neighbouring cornfield. Both trains were southbound and carrying commuters to Cairo from the Nile Delta towns of Mansoura and Benha.The train from Mansoura was going at least 50mph when the collision occurred, having failed to heed a stop signal outside Qalyoub station, police sources said.A fire that broke out as a result of the incident was extinguished.Meanwhile, the decision to suspend all Channel Tunnel services came after a smoke alarm was activated on a Eurotunnel freight shuttle train carrying 34 people at around 12.30pm.The train occupants were safely evacuated into the service tunnel.No one was injured in the incident, which saw the tunnel closed for four and a half hours.
