A million people living on the shores of Lake Geneva could be at risk from devastating tsunamis, scientists have warned.

In the sixth century a tsunami triggered by a rockfall on the lake destroyed several villages, sent a 26ft wave crashing over Geneva's city walls, and caused many casualties.
Experts investigating the event said a similar disaster could easily happen again, and Geneva with its 200,000 inhabitants was especially vulnerable.
BEIJING, Oct. 30 (Xinhuanet) -- Tropical storm Son-Tinh has made landfall in south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region after sweeping across Hainan Island. Local authorities in Guangxi have recalled shipping and reinforced port facilities. Some flights have also been cancelled or delayed.

VANCOUVER—The second largest earthquake in Canadian history was still rattling nerves Sunday, with aftershocks off the northern coast of British Columbia.
On Saturday night, a massive 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit about 30 kilometres north of Sandspit, B.C., in the Haida Gwaii islands shortly after 8 p.m. local time, sending tremors north through the island chain and south as far as Metro Vancouver.
Superstorm Sandy may no longer officially be a "hurricane", but its fearsome size and unusual intensity have locked in the impacts that we feared days ago.
Sandy made landfall around 8 p.m. ET Monday near Atlantic City, N.J. as a "post-tropical cyclone" with a minimum central pressure of 946 mb, or 27.94 inches of mercury.
A port facility in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, went up in flames.
As Hurricane Sandy churned inland as a downgraded storm, residents up and down the battered mid-Atlantic region woke on Tuesday to lingering waters, darkened homes and the daunting task of cleaning up from once-in-a-generation storm surges and their devastating effects.

As we ascend, we gain consciousness of the more subtle aspects of our being and begin to connect with all that is.
We are one with the cosmos whether we realize it or not. Realizing it, though, quickens our spiritual energy and allows us access to higher realms. In those higher realms lies the awareness that we are more than just finite physical beings living one life in one place at one point in time. Connecting with this awareness is to awaken to the truth and take a step forward, and upward, on our soul’s journey. This upward movement is known as ascension because the more we remember who we are and embody that truth, the higher our energy vibrates; we ascend up the scale from the gross physical plane to the subtle spiritual plane. As we ascend, we gain consciousness of the more subtle aspects of our being, with the ultimate outcome being a complete identification with the light body, an experience of unification with the cosmos.
I’d like to make a note on the current hurricane Sandy, because there’s been a lot of buzz on it and different sources have been saying different things. The idea of weather manipulation will almost always come into play when it comes to powerful weather of this sort, and I can feel that the intensity of hurricane Sandy is catalytically initiating yet another planetary balancing and cleansing, as has been suggested.
As we pass through life on the physical plane, things happen. We contract flus and colds and viruses, and we sustain physical injuries, like falling off our bikes as children or experiencing sports injuries. As adults, we may throw our back out or experience a serious car accident, in the process, acquiring bruises, cuts, sprains, infections, lacerations, and sometimes broken bones.
Some of us may also experience serious illnesses of an internal nature like cancer or hepatitis, heart disease or multiple sclerosis. Eventually we pass through old age and the progressive infirmity and death of the physical body. These are the givens–they are all to be expected as part of what it means to be an embodied, living being. But these are all effects, and what the shaman is primarily interested in is the cause.
My dear readers… life is changing as we know it… on all coasts… on all levels… be present for this experience, for we only come this way, but once… make each moment count… be in meditation for messages of spirit to come through… and you will always be in the knowing… the old is now being washed away… the new is now birthing… be curious in the new energies…
Breathe in the Stars
… we are here now… our hearts now beat as one… living our soul songs… breathing in the stars… exhaling out our love…
