Muscat: Two back-to-back earthquakes were recorded closer to Oman by the Earthquake Monitoring Centre at Sultan Qaboos University in the last 24 hours but there were no reports of damage to property or loss of life. While an earthquake measuring 4.8-magnitude was reported in the Arabian Gulf around midnight, the other was reported from southern Iran with 4.2-magnitude on Tuesday evening. Speaking to Times of Oman, Dr Issa Al Hussain, director, Earthquake Monitoring Centre, Sultan Qaboos University (SQU), said that they record around 150 earthquakes from all over the globe every month. “Locally we record around four to five quakes every month but most of them are weak and its epicenter is far away from Oman,- he said. But given Oman’s close vicinity to where the Arabian plates meet the Eurasian plates, how much risk does it pose to the Sultanate? Earthquake potential Though having a little chance, tsunami did hit the Sultanate on November 27, 1945, following an earthquake situated offshore Pakistan. “That time the epicentre of the earthquake was Makran region where we recorded 8.1-magnititude,- he said. Another expert said that the southern part of Oman is also at risk from tsunamis generated offshore in Indonesia. “However, the wave height there is not likely to be very high as demonstrated following the earthquake in 2004, when the tsunami reached only 3m in Oman,- another expert said. The social media has been abuzz since last night with many concerned residents taking to Twitter and Facebook to confirm if indeed there was an earthquake that had things rattling in their wake. However, Hussain denied reports about mild tremors that residents of Oman reportedly said they had felt. “While one of them was 542km away from Muscat, the other was 671km away from Muscat so it is not possible that it affected the Oman residents,- he added. Through a network of 21 seismic stations at various locations across the Sultanate, the Earthquake Monitoring Centre is capable of registering and measuring shock-waves of all sizes.

Volcanic Activity
Increased Seismic Activity in Iceland’s Katla Volcano
Increased seismic activity was detected in Mýrdalsjökull glacier in south Iceland, under which the volcano Katla lies, last night. Twenty-six minor earthquakes were picked up by sensors, all of which had their epicenter within the Katla crater.

A seismic activity expert on watch at the Icelandic Meteorological Office informed ruv.is that the earthquake swarm had started at 1 am and continued through 5 am.
However, there is no reason to be concerned about an imminent volcanic eruption or glacial outburst in Katla. The earthquakes were all shallow and originated in seismic activity in the geothermal system.

Fires, Smoke in Central Russia
Russia has declared a state of emergency in several eastern regions due to hundreds of wildfires. NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image of fires and smoke in north central Russia on June 15, 2012, at 05:50 UTC (1:50 a.m. EDT) The red spots are where the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument that flies aboard the Terra satellite detected heat signatures. Dry conditions, agricultural burning, lightning and human involvement have contributed to many wildfires across Siberia over the last few weeks.

Dayton declares Duluth flood state of emergency
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Gov. Mark Dayton has declared a state of emergency and authorized the National Guard to help Duluth cope with its flood damage.
The governor issued the executive order Wednesday afternoon, a few hours after promising Duluth Mayor Don Ness that the state would provide all possible assistance.
Dayton plans to travel to Duluth on Thursday morning to discuss further how the state can help.
Dayton also asks people who live in or were planning to travel in the Duluth area to follow the requests of local authorities to stay off of affected roads and highways so emergency crews can do their work.
In Carlton, several residents have been evacuated. Some residents in Thomson Township in Carlton County were urged to leave after the Thompson Reservoir overflowed. Residents of Duluth’s Fond du Lac neighborhood had also urged to evacuate.

Flash Flood in Australia on Friday, 22 June, 2012 at 03:06 (03:06 AM) UTC.
| Description | |
| Emergency services volunteers were forced to abandon their vehicle this morning after it became trapped in a flooded ditch in Koo Wee Rup. The State Emergency Service utility was door-knocking residents in the inundated town southeast of Melbourne when it ran into the deep ditch, leaving the nose of the vehicle submerged. There are reports the deluge has risen to about half a metre along Boundary Drain Road, one of the worst hit streets in the flood-ravaged town. SES spokeswoman Dimity York said volunteers were specially trained and all vehicles were fitted with funnels, nevertheless it demonstrated the perils of driving through floodwaters. “It’s further reinforcement that if specially trained personnel can get into that situation then no one should ever drive through floodwater,” Ms York said. She said emergency services would have to wait until floodwaters receded until they could retrieve the stricken vehicle. Meanwhile, Melbourne Water engineers were struggling to fix a broken levee gate which allowed flooding to billow over the town’s boundary drain, intensifying flooding in the area. SES spokesman Toby Borella said a combination of high tides and floodwaters surged through the open gate, causing the channel to overflow and spill onto William Street. Mr Borella said the pressure floodwaters were putting on the gate meant engineers were finding it difficult to close.
He said they didn’t know why the gate had failed. At comes as at least 30 homes have been evacuated in Koo Wee Rup as parts of Gippsland succumbed to flooding overnight. State Emergency Service spokesman Lachlan Quick said emergency services began door-knocking early this morning after torrential rain threatened properties. He said further evacuations could be expected throughout the day, with the downpour not expected to ease until later tonight. “With any luck we can see it (the water level) drop today, (but) we never expect it to ease that quickly. We have to be prepared for the worst,” Mr Quick said. Despite concerns, he said only a handful of properties had so far been inundated. Police warned a number of arterial roads in the area bounded by Longwarry Rd, Bridge Rd, the Westernport Highway, South Gippsland Highway and Koo Wee Rup Rd were affected by flooding. So far, the South Gippsland Highway north of Lang Lang, near the intersection of McDonalds Track has been closed. The Bass Highway at Wonthaggi is closed. Inverloch-Kongwak Road at Kongwak as well as Outtrim-Inverloch Rd at Outtrim are closed. |

| Today | Fire | USA | State of New York, Oswego [Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Plant] |  |
|
Fire in USA on Friday, 22 June, 2012 at 03:11 (03:11 AM) UTC.
| Description | |
| A small equipment fire that lasted for about 17 minutes today caused the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station to reduce its plant power to 62 percent and declare an “unusual event.” The fire was discovered at 2:51 p.m. on one of the plant’s three feedwater pumps, said Jill Lyon, speaking for Constellation Energy Nuclear Group. The plant’s onsite trained personnel extinguished the fire by 3:08 p.m., she said. The “unusual event” was declared at 3:05 p.m. when it was apparent the fire would last more than 15 minutes. The fire was extinguished at 3:08 p.m. and the “unusual event” was declared over at 4 p.m., Lyon said. No personnel were injured and no workers were evacuated, Lyon said. The plant will continue operating at 62 percent while inspectors investigate the cause of the fire, she said. At the lower power level, one pump can maintain reactor water level, she said. An “unusual event” is the lowest level of four emergency classification levels for a nuclear plant. Because of the federal regulations, any event out of the ordinary is reported to federal, state and local authorities. By definition, the event poses no risk to the public or to plant employees, she said. The top three classifications are: “general emergency,” “site area emergency” and “alert,” she said. |
New circuits work in high radiation levels
by Staff Writers
Salt Lake City (UPI)

U.S. researchers say microscopic mechanical devices that withstand intense radiation and heat can be used in robots dealing with damaged nuclear power plants.
Such devices can withstand high amounts of radiation that can quickly fry silicon-based electronic circuits, University of Utah engineers reported Tuesday.
Such electronic circuits were in robots sent to help contain the meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant after Japan’s catastrophic 2011 earthquake and tsunami, they said.
“Robots were sent to control the troubled reactors, and they ceased to operate after a few hours because their electronics failed,” Utah researcher Massood Tabib-Azar said.
Tabib-Azar and his colleagues have been working on mechanical substitutes for such electronics and showed their devices, known as micro-electro-mechanical systems, kept working despite intense ionizing radiation and heat by dipping them for two hours into the core of the University of Utah’s research reactor.
“We have developed a unique technology that keeps on working in the presence of ionizing radiation to provide computation power for critical defense infrastructures,” Tabib-Azar said. “Our devices also can be used in deep space applications in the presence of cosmic ionizing radiation, and can help robotics to control troubled nuclear reactors without degradation.”

Solar Activity Causes Changes In Humans And Affects Our Health -
Scientists Say
MessageToEagle.com – As our Sun goes through its 11-year cycle that is due to peak in 2013 or 2014, scientists worry about dangerous solar flares that could practically wipe out a lot of our electronic civilization.
There has also been concern in what way our Suns’ abnormal behavior can effect human health.
Some scientists say there is actually a correlation between the rise and fall of solar activity and the human consciousness
Professor Raymond Wheeler of the University of Kansas has come to the same conclusions that Russian scientist Alexander Chizhevsky discovered in 1915, namely that solar storms directly cause conflict, wars and even death among humans on Earth.
In the 1930′s Wheeler began a lifetime study that analyzed world climate and cultural activities back to the dawn of recorded civilization. He presented his research in his book, Climate: The Key To Understanding Business Cycles.
There is no doubt according to Wheeler that weather does affect us.
Wheeler’s studies show studies that there exists a most important 100-year-cycle of climatic changes that influences human affairs in a profound manner.
The cycle occurs in four distinct phases, which are descriptive of worldwide conditions rather than specific areas.
The four phases are disturbed by secondary leads and delays — as much as 10 years — in isolated and widely separated areas.Prof. Wheeler stated: “The climatic curve is intended to represent — as far as one curve can — the weather trend in the world as a whole at any one time.
| The curve has no absolute significance. The meaning of the curve at any one time is relative to the pattern of the 100-year old cycle as a whole.”The 100-year weather cycle and its phases are not of precisely equal duration. The cycle can contract to 70 years or expand to 120.
The cycle is divided into a warm and a cold phase, each of which has a wet and dry period. Because people are affected by weather, the cycles of weather produce similar patterns of behavior and events in history during the same phases of the century-long weather cycle. The phases are: (1) Cold-Dry, (2) Warm-Wet, (3) Warm-Dry, and (4) Cold-Wet. We are now in a cold-dry phase, which will prevail until about 2000 A.D. |
Our Sun affects our mental and physical health. The Sun’s activity as it interacts with the Earths magnetic field, effects extensive changes in human beings perspectives, moods, emotions and behavioral patterns.

During solar minimums and maximums the geomagnetic fields begin to intensify. The magnetic fields interact with human electrochemically within the brain. It affects psychological mechanisms creating anomalous hormonal swings and significantly mutated brain-wave activity.
Wheeler expanded on Chishevsky’s work by studying violence during 1913; measuring the time between battles and severity. These findings were compared with the suns 11 year sunspot cycle.
The results showed that as the sun cycle peaked, there was a rise in human unrest, uprisings, rebellions, revolutions, and wars between nations. As the magnetic fields intensified, the reaction within the human brain was a mixture of deadly emotional tantrums and unadulterated killing sprees.
As Wheeler further compared his findings with human history, he found a startling pattern that could be traced back 2,500 years.
In solar cycle 22, at the sun’s maximum we experienced Iraq invading Kuwait and the US entering the first battle against Saddam Hussein.
Just eleven years later, as the sun became active again, 9/11 and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq ensued.
In the latter half of 2010, the sun reached another peak that affected the Earth’s magnetic field; we witnessed dissent in Tunisia, Egypt and Yemen.
Those global uprisings spread to Syria, Libya, Iran and China as riots continued across the European landscape.
This civil unrest has now reached its influence across the modernized world and even into Middle Eastern countries, Africa and Asia.
It is projected, based on Wheeler’s research, as the sun’s activity increases, so will the violence on Earth.
We are now entering the 24th solar cycle.
A surge in solar activity by 50 times more than previously recorded is anticipated. NASA and other space agencies have been warning of this fact.
Through 2011 and onto 2012, the X-flares are expected to endure toward their maximum. As this incredible activity is being witnessed, we are assured that more wars, toppling countries and populations will be displaced.
In 2012 we are seeing these events coming to pass; with only more intensification to come.
In what way will Earth be affected during this solar peak?
Wheeler’s predecessor was a man named Dr. Robert Becker. Becker was an author, expert in biological electricity and a Professor with State University.
In 1963, Becker, along with his colleague, Dr. Freedman, discovered that there was a marked correlation between solar activity and psychotic outbreaks of mass insanity on Earth.
Becker and Freedman made their most dire predictions of incredible violence to culminate in the years 2012 and 2013.
So far, history has proven them correct.
There obviously appears to be connection between solar activity and psychotic outbreaks of mass insanity on Earth. The world is not ending, but there might be some rough times ahead according to these scientists.

Missing Dwarf Galaxies Puzzle Scientists
MessageToEagle.com – The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a new view of the dwarf galaxy UGC 5497, which looks a bit like salt sprinkled on black velvet in the image.
The object is a compact blue dwarf galaxy that is infused with newly formed clusters of stars.
The bright, blue stars that arise in these clusters help to give the galaxy an overall bluish appearance that lasts for several million years until these fast-burning stars explode as supernovae.
| UGC 5497 is considered part of the M 81 group of galaxies, which is located about 12 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major (The Great Bear).
UGC 5497 turned up in a ground-based telescope survey back in 2008 looking for new dwarf galaxy candidates associated with Messier 81. According to the leading cosmological theory of galaxy formation, called Lambda Cold Dark Matter, there should be far more satellite dwarf galaxies associated with big galaxies like the Milky Way and Messier 81 than are currently known. |
Finding previously overlooked objects such as this one has helped cut into the expected tally — but only by a small amount.
Astrophysicists therefore remain puzzled over the so-called “missing satellite” problem.

The field of view in this image, which is a combination of visible and infrared exposures from Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys, is approximately 3.4 by 3.4 arcminutes.

Biological Hazard in USA on Friday, 22 June, 2012 at 03:09 (03:09 AM) UTC.
| Description | |
| Jefferson County Public Health has confirmed that a squirrel from the Idledale area has tested positive for bubonic plague. Plague is a highly infectious bacterial disease carried by various types of wild rodents and is transmitted primarily by flea bites. Squirrels, rodents, prairie dogs and other mammals, such as rabbits and cats are susceptible to plague because they carry fleas. “The risk of residents contracting plague is extremely low,” said Jefferson County Public Health Director Dr. Mark Johnson. “We want people to be aware that summer marks the beginning of the plague season, and just a few simple precautions will further reduce that risk. The best way to prevent plague is to control the presence of rodents and fleas in and around the home. In addition, people should avoid contact with any species of wild rodents, especially sick or dead rodents. If a dead rodent is found, do not handle the animal directly, use gloves and place it in a plastic bag. Dogs and cats should be confined so they cannot prey on infected rodents and then bring the disease home with them. Pet owners who live close to rodent populations should use flea-control products recommended by their veterinarian. Controlling fleas on pets will prevent the transfer of fleas to humans. If these precautions are taken, the probability of contracting plague is extremely low. Anyone experiencing these symptoms should consult a physician immediately: sudden onset of high fever; muscle pain; malaise, or a general feeling of being ill; nausea; and vomiting. Jefferson County Public Health will continue its plague surveillance of rodent populations in the county. | |
| Biohazard name: | Bubonic Plague |
| Biohazard level: | 4/4 Hazardous |
| Biohazard desc.: | Viruses and bacteria that cause severe to fatal disease in humans, and for which vaccines or other treatments are not available, such as Bolivian and Argentine hemorrhagic fevers, H5N1(bird flu), Dengue hemorrhagic fever, Marburg virus, Ebola virus, hantaviruses, Lassa fever, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever, and other hemorrhagic or unidentified diseases. When dealing with biological hazards at this level the use of a Hazmat suit and a self-contained oxygen supply is mandatory. The entrance and exit of a Level Four biolab will contain multiple showers, a vacuum room, an ultraviolet light room, autonomous detection system, and other safety precautions designed to destroy all traces of the biohazard. Multiple airlocks are employed and are electronically secured to prevent both doors opening at the same time. All air and water service going to and coming from a Biosafety Level 4 (P4) lab will undergo similar decontamination procedures to eliminate the possibility of an accidental release. |

HAZMAT in USA on Friday, 22 June, 2012 at 02:59 (02:59 AM) UTC.
| Description | |
| It was a 90-degree afternoon, and the Garfield Park pool was packed. David Yates, 13, had just zipped down a slide and splashed into the water when he noticed a bad taste in his mouth – like bleach. At the same time – across a pool that features shallow wading areas, two large water slides and a children’s playhouse – others were making the same discovery. Mayhem ensued. Jamie Rahmany, in the baby pool with her son, noticed kids coughing around her. Patricia Tanner, a mother of three sitting just out of the pool, saw children vomiting. And Shari Patton, a mother with two children at the pool, smelled a sharp odor that was likened to ammonia, or chlorine. Patton yanked her kids out of the water and rushed them to a shower room for a rinse. Around her, swimmers were leaving the pool and grabbing shirts, towels, whatever they could to cover their faces and shield them from the smell. Pool staff quickly began giving the children water, with kids drinking from the same cups. The source of the chaos was what officials described as a toxically out-of-balance mixture of pool chemicals that were pumped into the water around 2 p.m. Thursday. The solution sickened scores and sent more than 80 people – most of them children – to four local hospitals. Most were treated and released within a couple of hours. Some were being kept Thursday evening for observation, but there was no indication that anyone had been seriously harmed. The emergency was serious enough that first responders initially referred to the scene as one of “mass casualties.” They set up a triage area. In addition to several ambulances, two IndyGo buses were brought in to take the victims to the hospitals. For a time, the city’s emergency room capacity was strained by the numbers. Mayor Greg Ballard stopped what he was doing to visit the scene on the city’s Southside.
Exactly how the noxious mixture came about wasn’t clear, according to Lt. Derrick Sayles of the Indianapolis Fire Department, because the pool’s operator was among those being treated. Sayles said the source seemed to be the improper use of a pool cleaning chemical called ACID Magic. Sayles said the machine that pumps chemicals into the pool had been shut down and restarted. As it was restarted, the combination of ACID Magic, sodium and water flowing into the pool was wrong. Dr. James Mowry, director of the Indiana Poison Control Center at IU Health Methodist Hospital, which handled 45 of the Garfield pool patients, described the resulting mixture as a chlorine gas. In this case, the mixture was just strong enough to irritate eyes and lungs and induce vomiting. But in super-high concentrations — as with chemical weapons used during World War I — the gas can be lethal. How the misapplication of chemicals occurred will be investigated, Sayles said. The mayor said other city pools will be checked to ensure they aren’t susceptible to similar problems. The Indianapolis Star requested health inspection and maintenance reports on the Garfield Park pool from county and city officials Thursday but was told those records were not immediately unavailable. Garfield Park’s pool was closed for the rest of the day. It’s not known when it will reopen. Jen Pittman, the city’s marketing director, said the city will not provide refunds to pool visitors but will provide them with a complimentary pass for another day, once it does reopen. David Yates, the 13-year-old who tasted the chemical after surfacing from his splash off the water slide, turned down care from emergency officials, even at the urging of his baby sitter. He left the Garfield Park pool with a reddened face, puffy eyes and irritation in his chest. When his mother, Heather Lightle, arrived home a couple of hours later, she found David with his eyes matted shut and a green substance oozing from the corners. She took him to the emergency room immediately. He was treated and released a few hours later. Lightle was angry that emergency responders at the scene didn’t force him to go to the emergency room. And she was angered by what happened with the chemicals at the pool. |

HAZMAT in Israel on Thursday, 21 June, 2012 at 10:01 (10:01 AM) UTC.
| Description | |
| A dozen fire fighting and hazardous materials teams were called to a Haifa plant Thursday morning to contain a chemical leak that could spill into the Haifa Bay. The leak was reported at the Carmel Olephin plant, which produces chemicals for use in plastic products, including polypropylene and polyethylene. According to Ynet, the chemicals in question were undergoing a reaction in their storage tank, which the teams were attempting to contain first by cooling and and then by diluting the material. Israel Radio reported that the leak started around 7 a.m. Haifa Bay is home to some of Israel’s largest chemical plants and is often cited as one of the country’s most polluted areas. Two weeks ago, a leak of acrylamide at Ben-Gurion International Airport, also used to make plastics, was discovered. One man was lightly injured in that incident. |
