Upcoming heat wave prompts concerns among British Columbia firefighters-The Canadian PressBy The Canadian Press |– Sat, 26 Jul, 2014
VANCOUVER - Firefighters in British Columbia are concerned another heat wave will spark more fires across the province.An information officer with the B.C. Wildfire Management Branch, says temperatures are expected to rise again next week, especially in the southern interior, where they could reach the mid-30s.Kevin Skrepnek says rainfall throughout the province this week gave firefighters a break, but expectations of hot, dry conditions are raising concerns.Roughly 2,500 personnel have been committed to battling the blazes provincewide.The largest fire is the 520-square-kilometre blaze in Chelaslie River, south of Burns Lake in the north-central area of the province, which has not affected populated areas.Evacuation orders throughout B.C. were rescinded this week thanks to provincewide showers, though some residents have been warned they may have to leave again at a moment's notice.Ninety-five wildfires are burning in B.C.There have been 698 fires in the province since April 1, compared with 518 fires this time last year.

Ebola kills Liberian doctor, 2 Americans infected-Associated Press-By JONATHAN PAYE-LAYLEH -JULY 27,14-YahooNews
MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — One of Liberia's most high-profile doctors has died of Ebola, officials said Sunday, and an American physician was being treated for the deadly virus, highlighting the risks facing health workers trying to combat an outbreak that has killed more than 670 people in West Africa — the largest ever recorded.A second American, a missionary working in the Liberian capital, was also taken ill and was being treated in isolation there, said the pastor of a North Carolina church that sponsored her work.Dr. Samuel Brisbane, a top Liberian health official, was treating Ebola patients at the country's largest hospital, the John F. Kennedy Memorial Medical Center in Monrovia, when he fell ill. He died Saturday, said Tolbert Nyenswah, an assistant health minister. A Ugandan doctor died earlier this month.The American physician, 33-year-old Dr. Kent Brantly, was in Liberia helping to respond to the outbreak that has killed 129 people nationwide when he fell ill, according to the North Carolina-based medical charity, Samaritan's Purse.He was receiving intensive medical care in a Monrovia hospital and was in stable condition, according to a spokeswoman for the aid group, Melissa Strickland."We are hopeful, but he is certainly not out of the woods yet," she said.Early treatment improves a patient's chances of survival, and Brantly recognized his own symptoms and began receiving care immediately, Strickland said.The American missionary, Nancy Writebol, was gravely ill and in isolation in Monrovia, her husband, David, told a church elder via Skype, according to the Rev. John Munro, pastor of Calvary Church in Charlotte, N.C.Munro said the couple, who had been in Liberia for about a year, insisted on staying there despite the Ebola threat. "These are real heroes — people who do things quietly behind the scenes, people with a very strong vocation and very strong faith," Munro said.There is no known cure for the highly contagious virus, which is one of the deadliest in the world. At least 1,201 people have been infected in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, according to the World Health Organization, and 672 have died. Besides the Liberian fatalities, 319 people have died in Guinea and 224 in Sierra Leone.Ominously, Nigerian authorities said Friday that a Liberian man died of Ebola after flying from Monrovia to Lagos via Lome, Togo. The case underscored the difficulty of preventing Ebola victims from traveling given weak screening systems and the fact that the initial symptoms of the disease — including fever and sore throat — resemble many other illnesses.Health workers are among those at greatest risk of contracting the disease, which spreads through contact with bodily fluids.Photos of Brantly working in Liberia show him swathed head-to-toe in white protective coveralls, gloves and a head-and-face mask that he wore for hours a day while treating Ebola patients.Earlier this year, the American was quoted in a posting about the dangers facing health workers trying to contain the disease. "In past Ebola outbreaks, many of the casualties have been health care workers who contracted the disease through their work caring for infected individuals," he said.There is no known cure for Ebola, which begins with symptoms including fever and sore throat and escalates to vomiting, diarrhea and internal and external bleeding.The WHO says the disease is not contagious until a person begins to show symptoms. Brantly's wife and children had been living with him in Liberia but flew home to the U.S. about a week ago, before the doctor started showing any signs of illness, Strickland said."They have absolutely shown no symptoms," she said.A woman who identified herself as Brantly's mother said the family was declining immediate comment when reached by phone in Indiana. Besides Brantly and the two doctors in Liberia, Sierra Leone's top Ebola doctor and a doctor in Liberia's central Bong County have also fallen ill.The situation "is getting more and more scary," said Nyenswah, the country's assistant health minister.Meanwhile, the fact that a sick Liberian could board a flight to Nigeria raised new fears that other passengers could take the disease beyond Africa.Nigeria's international airports were screening passengers arriving from foreign countries, and health officials were also working with ports and land borders to raise awareness of the disease. Togo's government also said it was on high alert.Security analysts were skeptical about the usefulness of these measures."In Nigeria's case, the security set-up is currently bad, so I doubt it will help or have the minimum effectiveness they are hoping for," said Yan St. Pierre, CEO of the Berlin-based security consulting firm MOSECON.An outbreak in Lagos, a megacity where many lived in cramped conditions, could be a major public health disaster.The West Africa outbreak is believed to have begun as far back as January in southeast Guinea, though the first cases weren't confirmed until March.Since then, officials have tried to contain the disease by isolating victims and educating populations on how to avoid transmission, though porous borders and widespread distrust of health workers have made the outbreak difficult to bring under control.News of Brisbane's death first began circulating on Saturday, a national holiday marking Liberia's independence in 1847.President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf used her Independence Day address to discuss a new taskforce to combat Ebola. Information Minister Lewis Brown said the taskforce would go "from community to community, from village to village, from town to town" to try to increase awareness.In Sierra Leone, which has recorded the highest number of new cases in recent days, the first case originating in Freetown, the capital, came when a hairdresser, Saudata Koroma, fell ill. She was forcibly removed from a government hospital by her family, sparking a frantic search that ended Friday. Kargbo, the chief medical officer, said Sunday that Koroma died while being transported to a treatment center in the east of the country.__Associated Press writers Colleen Slevin in Denver, Clarence Roy- Macaulay in Freetown, Sierra Leone, and Heather Murdock in Lagos, Nigeria, contributed reporting.

Groundwater levels drop in Southwestern U.S. in ongoing drought-Reuters-By By Sharon Bernstein and Jennifer Chaussee July 25, 2014 2:22 AM
(Reuters) - Underground stores of water in the southwestern United States have receded dramatically amid ongoing drought that has parched states from Oklahoma to the Pacific Coast and is costing California billions in lost crops and jobs, a new study shows.The study released Thursday by the University of California, Irvine, shows that groundwater in the Colorado River basin has dropped by 40 million acre-feet over the past five years, the equivalent of two of the nation's largest reservoirs."If drought conditions like this continue, there is a possibility we will entirely deplete our groundwater storage," said researcher Stephanie Castle, the report's author.The data comes as policymakers are wrestling over how to manage the use of groundwater, accessed via wells and often the last resort for farmers unable to buy water from reservoirs in dry years. Using satellite data, Castle tracked the ebbing water in the Colorado River basin, which stretches through seven states.Underground water is an important backup during times of drought, relied on by farmers and others with access to wells when streams and reservoirs become depleted.As drought conditions have continued, the underground water in the basin - not to be confused with the water in the river itself or the huge reservoirs it feeds - receded at a far faster rate than expected, Castle said.Most of the reduction was in the Lower Colorado River Basin, she said.In bone-dry California, the reservoirs that millions rely on for their water have also become depleted in the drought, new data from state water officials showed Thursday.The newly released data show that each of the state’s 12 major reservoirs are below historical averages, while 10 of them are below 50 percent capacity and the five largest below 40 percent capacity.Northern California's Lake Shasta, the state's largest reservoir, is holding 1.6 million acre-feet of water, just 36 percent of its total capacity and nearly half the amount it held last year. Neighboring Lake Oroville and Trinity Lake, the second- and third-largest reservoirs, are at 37 percent capacity, also nearly half that of last year."The reservoirs are clearly holding less water this year than they did a year ago today and that is a concern that we all share," said Doug Carlson, a spokesman for the California Department of Water Resources.(The story is refiled to clarify location of greatest groundwater reduction in paragraph 8)(Reporting by Sharon Bernstein in Sacramento and; Jennifer Chaussee in San Francisco; Editing by Eric Walsh)

Mount Etna Spraying Lava Into the Sky-By Epoch Video | July 24, 2014-Last Updated: July 24, 2014 7:03 am-YahooNews
Mount Etna erupts, spewing molten lava into the night sky. The activity was concentrated in two mouths, the most southern of which produced “strombolian” explosions – lava bombs, flaming cinders, and rocks shooting at altitudes of tens to hundreds of meters into the air.Etna is an active stratovolcano located on the east coast of Sicily. It is tallest active volcano in Europe with hight 3,329 m (10,922 ft).Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of activity.The nutritious volcanic soils is used in agriculture across the lower slopes of the mountain and the broad Plain of Catania to the south.History of volcanic activity of Mount Etna comes down to half a million years ago and took place beneath the sea off the ancient coastline of Sicily.Current eruptions of Etna follow a variety of patterns. Most occur at the summit where are five distinct craters—the Northeast Crater, the Voragine, the Bocca Nuova, and the Southeast Crater Complex.Etna is one of the most visited attractions in Sicily.

9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.(A DAYS WAGES FOR A LOAF OF BREAD)

Groundwater levels drop in Southwestern U.S. in ongoing drought-Reuters-By By Sharon Bernstein and Jennifer Chaussee July 25, 2014 2:22 AM
(Reuters) - Underground stores of water in the southwestern United States have receded dramatically amid ongoing drought that has parched states from Oklahoma to the Pacific Coast and is costing California billions in lost crops and jobs, a new study shows.The study released Thursday by the University of California, Irvine, shows that groundwater in the Colorado River basin has dropped by 40 million acre-feet over the past five years, the equivalent of two of the nation's largest reservoirs."If drought conditions like this continue, there is a possibility we will entirely deplete our groundwater storage," said researcher Stephanie Castle, the report's author.The data comes as policymakers are wrestling over how to manage the use of groundwater, accessed via wells and often the last resort for farmers unable to buy water from reservoirs in dry years. Using satellite data, Castle tracked the ebbing water in the Colorado River basin, which stretches through seven states.Underground water is an important backup during times of drought, relied on by farmers and others with access to wells when streams and reservoirs become depleted.As drought conditions have continued, the underground water in the basin - not to be confused with the water in the river itself or the huge reservoirs it feeds - receded at a far faster rate than expected, Castle said.Most of the reduction was in the Lower Colorado River Basin, she said.In bone-dry California, the reservoirs that millions rely on for their water have also become depleted in the drought, new data from state water officials showed Thursday.The newly released data show that each of the state’s 12 major reservoirs are below historical averages, while 10 of them are below 50 percent capacity and the five largest below 40 percent capacity.Northern California's Lake Shasta, the state's largest reservoir, is holding 1.6 million acre-feet of water, just 36 percent of its total capacity and nearly half the amount it held last year. Neighboring Lake Oroville and Trinity Lake, the second- and third-largest reservoirs, are at 37 percent capacity, also nearly half that of last year."The reservoirs are clearly holding less water this year than they did a year ago today and that is a concern that we all share," said Doug Carlson, a spokesman for the California Department of Water Resources.(The story is refiled to clarify location of greatest groundwater reduction in paragraph 8)(Reporting by Sharon Bernstein in Sacramento and; Jennifer Chaussee in San Francisco; Editing by Eric Walsh)

Mount Etna Spraying Lava Into the Sky-By Epoch Video | July 24, 2014-Last Updated: July 24, 2014 7:03 am-YahooNews
Mount Etna erupts, spewing molten lava into the night sky. The activity was concentrated in two mouths, the most southern of which produced “strombolian” explosions – lava bombs, flaming cinders, and rocks shooting at altitudes of tens to hundreds of meters into the air.Etna is an active stratovolcano located on the east coast of Sicily. It is tallest active volcano in Europe with hight 3,329 m (10,922 ft).Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of activity.The nutritious volcanic soils is used in agriculture across the lower slopes of the mountain and the broad Plain of Catania to the south.History of volcanic activity of Mount Etna comes down to half a million years ago and took place beneath the sea off the ancient coastline of Sicily.Current eruptions of Etna follow a variety of patterns. Most occur at the summit where are five distinct craters—the Northeast Crater, the Voragine, the Bocca Nuova, and the Southeast Crater Complex.Etna is one of the most visited attractions in Sicily.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.
