http://chrissydev.blogspot.com/2010/09/road-failure-video-from-thailand.html
AGU Dave's Landslide Blog. Tuesday, September 14, 2010. Road failure video from Thailand. Thanks to my former student Kurtis Garbutt. For the heads up on this one. The video below shows the progressive development of a road in Thailand. I suspect that this initiated as a culvert failure, with multiple collapses due to undercutting:. The final frames of the video show an overview of the site. Check out where the people are standing! As an aside, Kurtis also runs a very interesting blog on natural hazards.

Pool wisdom.com site. 8220;I’m not homesick”. An old lady on her wheelchair was coming to the War Memorial in Harow. She struggled to stand up, a small step by step, finally moved to the base of memorial. Carefully but solemnly, she put the wreach at the cenotaph. The hymns kept playing, while the lady sat on her wheelchair still regardless of the heavy rain. If those tears can be seen in heaven, her family member who died in second world war will notice how painful these lady has been gone through.

Still this time a lot of people doubt the real function of the conference. Last year, in Copenhagen, the conference reached an agreement with no legal standing. Basically, no improvement. China, as the largest developing country in the world, seems to be the only one to blame by the world, especially western countries. However, is this true? I fully doubt it.

Google “journalists beaten”, you can get 342,000 results. However, I’m not going to talk about how dangerous the journalists’ personal safety is.
