I was surfing the web and i saw this site, pretty cool.
Currently im running and adult site:Wellness
k, just want to say hi :)
Can i link you from my site? im looking for quality content like yours. If no let me know if i can add u in exchange for a montly fee or something.

Honolulu Advertiser, 3/29: “‘I’m baffled an earthquake this size didn’t trigger a tsunami near the epicenter,’ said Robert Cessaro, a geophysicist at the ‘Ewa Beach center, which is operated by the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA.”

New York Post, 3/29: “Experts are amazed that yesterday’s earthquake failed to generate a tsunami like the huge tidal wave that hit last December.”

Chicago Tribune, 3/30: “‘Right now, it is really puzzling, said Philip Liu, a water wave expert at Cornell University who traveled to Sri Lanka in January to study December’s tsunamis. ‘We have our jobs cut out for us.’”

Duluth News Tribune, 3/29: “‘The mystery is why there was not a large tsunami right near’ the site of the quake, said Frank Gonzalez, who heads the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s tsunami inundation mapping efforts.”

WBNS-TV: “Hawaii Monday’s deadly earthquake near Indonesia has tsunami experts puzzled.”

Shall I go on? I’m not making this up. These interviews were given hours after the earthquake, which struck at 6:09 a.m. HST on 3/28.

The real issue is whether the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center’s warning procedures deserve scrutiny and enhancements that might save lives. Yes, I want to bitch about things, and one of them is that 300,000 people died in December in part because no procedures were in place at the Warning Center that might have saved some of them.

The job of the PTWS is to inform the national governments of the participating pacific rim nations. The buoys trigger automatic warnings in ground stations around the Pacific. It is the responsibility of the various participating governments to issue warnings, evacuation orders, etc. Each participant in the system has its own methods and criteria for performing this action.

On the other hand Carlson just seems to want bitch about things. First he says with respect to the most recent 8.3 magnitude quake off Sumatra that some countries were quick to issue warnings. These warnings, however, were not the result of a non-existant Indian Ocean warning system, but simply a (understandable) reaction to the word that a magnitude 8+ quake had been detected.

Then he seems to think that scientists were puzzled that there was no Tsunami. Well with regard to the latter case, I don’t think any scientist, once the analysis of the p and s waves determined it was a deep strike-slip quake, was puzzled. And the fact that there would be no tsunami from this one was pretty well known within an hour or so after the temblor.

If we and the Europeans can collaborate in matters like this in other places around the world that are suffering under tyrannical regimes we can have a worthwhile impact. How much better to engage people by making facts available than to use military force.

It is all well and good to bring to our attention non traditional sources of news, and it is certainly understandable that the sources which you cite are universally left leaning. But your credibility is at stake when you fail to do a bit of filtering out of the more outrageous, unproven or just plain mendacious.

With respect to Dr. Chomsky, I cannot manage to give much respect to one who’s sole idea is that the U.S. is responsible for all evil in the world. While I found his work on linguistics enlightening, I find his political pronouncments nothing short of ludicrous. His heart may be in the right place, but it seems that his mind is out to lunch.
