			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>DT the fifth of May, 2010 </strong></p>
<p><strong>London, The Great Britain</strong></p>
<p>The volcanic ash from the environmental catastrophe that occurred because of the volcanic eruption in Iceland this month has compelled the authorities of the British air traffic to seal the air space which falls above the land of Scotland and the northern Iceland. This order was clearly announced on Wednesday immediately some hours after the ban lift.</p>
<p>There can be no landings and take offs on Wednesday. This is confirmed news from the civil aviation authority of the Great Britain which was announced on Tuesday night. The authorities had expressed fear about the worsening of the situation as the cloud of ash is expected to change its direction of movement towards England and Wales.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img style="float: center; padding: 3px; margin: 10px; border: 4px solid gray;" src="http://www.mokshapress.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/European-air-space-300x199.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The northern airports of Ireland ordered a flight suspension till further notice from Dublin. There can be a restriction on the flight operations that start from the southern part of the nation by the afternoon, as clearly said by the authorities of the civil aviation of Ireland.</p>
<p>In the last month, the European air space was closed for six days because of this major environmental catastrophe. There was a great discomfort to hundreds of passengers apart from a loss worth billions of dollars in the air space sector plus other associated sectors also.</p>
<p>As per the met office forecasts, the ash concentration exceeds the permissible limit put by the engine manufacturers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DT&#8212;13-02-2010, Kashmir, India</p>
<p>There has been a terrible downpour in the entire valley since Sunday. This has brought down the temperature to several degrees Celsius. As per the department of meteorology, there is a lot of activity of the western disturbances. As per the predictions of the department, these disturbances will be active for another two days.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-142" title="The Entire Valley Of Kashmir Is Flooded With Heavy Rains" src="http://www.mokshapress.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/The-Entire-Valley-Of-Kashmir-Is-Flooded-With-Heavy-Rains-300x210.jpg" alt="The Entire Valley Of Kashmir Is Flooded With Heavy Rains" width="300" height="210" />There was a heavy down pour that started from the evening of Sunday. The rain lasted for the entire Sunday night with increment in the velocity of showers in the morning of Monday. The summer capital received the rainfall on a scale of 11.8 mm. The maximum temperature recorded was 24.9 degrees Celsius and the minimum was above 11 degrees Celsius.</p>
<p>There are reports of terrible rainfall across parts of north as well as the south Kashmir. Due to the heavy downpour, there has been an overflow in the drainage systems. Because of the strike by the municipal employees, the garbage collection by the side of the drains has caused a problem and has become a matter of concern. The overflow of the water has led to the drain choking.</p>
<p>This has caused deep inconvenience to the pedestrians across the residency road of the city. There are strong predictions by the department of meteorology that the rains may increase in intensity and can continue for a week or so. The prime benefit associated with this rainfall is the increase in crop production.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>12th April, 2010, Solomon islands, Honiara</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A devastating earthquake of the intensity of 6.8 on the Richter scale struck the Solomon Islands in the area of west pacific coast on Sunday. However, there have been no sirens of warning regarding the eruption of the tsunami nor has any damage been reported so far. As per the geological and seismic experts, the earthquake made a strike at a depth of 60 km with an epicenter of 102 km. The exact spot of strike of the earthquake was the south west of kira kira located o the Makira Island.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="alignleft" title="A Major Earthquake Strike On Solomon Islands" src="http://cdn.picapp.com/ftp/Images/f/7/9/8/Solomon_Islands_Riots_889a.jpg" alt="" width="263" height="162" />As per the warning center that deals with the pacific tsunamis, there is no need to worry on the account of this earthquake but warned that such earthquakes can be devastative in the circumference area of 100 kilometers from the center of eruption. The high level authorities and researchers associated with the center categorically said that preventive measures should be taken in the epicenter region of the earthquake.</p>
<p>There was a revision in the measurement of scale of the earthquake when initially it was found to be 7.1 on the Richter scale. Since the January of 2010, the Solomon Islands have been the hot targets of the earthquakes and the largest of them was 7.2 on the Richter scale. This generated a local tsunami as high as eight feet.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This earthquake left as many as one thousand people in the island homeless. The much disastrous was the one that came in the month of august 2007 killing more than 50 and leaving thousands homeless. This quake was 8.o on the Richter scale and generated a devastating tsunami.</p>
