The Earthquake Disaster in Haiti

All our best going out to the victims of the Haitian Disaster especially to the children and those who lost children

A few facts before we get to the tragedy, that is being well covered by others already…and just so we’re all on the same page…Haiti is in the Caribbean, and comprises the western one-third of the island of Hispaniola, between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, due west of the Dominican Republic, which comprises the rest of the island.

Thousands in Dark After Northwest Storm

Thousands in Dark After Northwest Storm

Sunday December 17, 2006 10:16 AM

SEATTLE (AP) - Residents of the Pacific Northwest struggled to stay warm Saturday after the worst windstorm in more than a decade knocked out power to more than 1.5 million homes and businesses and killed at least six people.

More than 600,000 customers in Washington and Oregon still had no power Saturday, and utilities said some might have to wait into next week for their lights to go back on.

Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire declared a state of emergency, and with temperatures expected to drop over the weekend, officials warned people not to use outdoor grills, propane heaters or other carbon monoxide-producing equipment indoors.

Firefighters in Kent found 33 people from four families suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning Friday night, fire Capt. Kyle Ohashi said. They had taken their barbecues inside to cook or heat their apartments as temperatures dipped into the 30s.

The Main Pages are Done : Feedback Wanted

There are two pages to the Main Portal template
which will lead into the sub-domains...


























































































All that is left to do on these pages is connect the links, ad the Adsense ads, add the messages from fox and mg, and upload to the site...

Hi mg,

"I need to talk about this....not being anal but the end project. Is there any...ANY faster way than in the blog or PMs on AO???"

I'm assuming you're talking about the forums??? or...the website??? or...my intentions/plans for both???

I realize PM's and the blogs are a slow form of communication but right now that's all we have. It doesn't look like I'm ever going to be able to access the forums where they are...even tried to go through an on-line proxy...and still got locked out.

So...if you have any questions...or want to discuss possibilities...it looks like our options right now are somewhat limited.

Eg ;)

Eg ;)

Looks good so far

Looks good so far! Is this replacing the current template we have up?

Main Portal Page Update















Well...

going to have to do
this in four
screen shots
to see it all...



















Hi mg,

Well...not for me...I'm still locked out...cleared cache...clicked log-on, messages, Idle Chat, members, and every time was redirected to the screenshot posted below.

Still only have access to veiw the front page...whatever he did...on purpose or by sheer stupidity..he should box, market and sell it to places like AO to keep out the trolls..talk about a SPECtacular solution :D

Eg ;)

EDIT: cleared cache again...tried your link in the PM...still same.
