| Earthquake early warning system shows promise | | 2008-07-10 09:17:57 | | Using remarkably sensitive new instruments, seismologists have detected minute geological changes that preceded small earthquakes along California's famed San Andreas Fault by as much as 10 hours. If follow-up tests show that the preseismic signal is pervasive, researchers say the method could form the basis of a robust early warning system for impending quakes.

| 8.1 Magnitude Earthquake on July 18, 2008 | | 2008-07-08 19:28:00 | | There are rumors circulating online that there would be a 8.1 Magnitude Earthquake on July 18, 2008 that will hit Philippines. Others say that it was passed through emails, text messages and even posted on blog posts about this chain mail coming from Juseleeno Nobulega Daroose , who predicted that a 8.1 Magnitude Earthquake on July 18, 2008 would hit Philippines and that would be few more days from now.But, according to Phivolcs Director Renato Solidium Jr. from Philvocs, “There is no basic science behind it,”. Many believes on the chain mail passed by Juseleeno Nobulega Daroose, and many don't. Others just call it a hoax, spreading again on the internet. But the point on that is, why try to prepare? Be ready what will happen on that day. If it's true or not, to prepare would be best thing to do. Agree with me?Prior to this, an Earthquake Details / Report was reviewed by a seismologist for the 5.4 Magnitude Earthquake that hit Philippines last July 06, 2008.Take a look at the Ear | | By: The Blogger and The Blog | | |

| Earthquake in China Could Cause Inflation | | 2008-05-28 19:05:00 | | The earthquake disaster which strike China a few days ago could boost inflation the region. Sichuan is an important region for agriculture production in China. The recovery process and reconstruction could add to higher price of some related goods. The pressure is on the transportation cost because of the massive reconstruction needed to repair the damages in the affected areas.However Sichuan is just a small percentage of China GDP, around 4% and the disaster strike on the mountainous area where there just some few factories. An official from the government planner (NDRC) stressed that the quake cannot change the fundamental of economic development for China.

| Earthquake in China Has Stoked Nationalism and Freed the Olympics from Criticism | | 2008-05-27 20:10:39 | | I asked a couple of weeks ago what the effect of the Sichuan earthquake would be. The main focus of the article was a possible rise in nationalism. As TIME Magazine points out in an article linked below, that forecast definitely was realized. But there was another geopolitical consequence: sympathy for China from the rest of the world after weeks of China-bashing. The earthquake, in the long run, probably came at the best of times for the government in Beijing.Time: China: Roused by Disaster"We Chinese people are growing closer and closer together," says Wu Xiangping, 28, who took a leave from his job at a Beijing advertising firm to join the relief effort.

That was before protests in Tibet. Protests in Lhasa and the harsh crackdown that followed inspired a new group of protesters that wanted greater autonomy and freedom, if not independence, for Tibet.
