- The government of Myanmar is still reluctant to allow aid to enter there country. Although the number of dead being bantered about around the Internet is in access of 60,000 those in control are still reluctant to let in foreign workers. As food and water are denied the million plus survivors, more deaths will occur because of the lack of food, water and basic services. Will this be the straw that breaks the camel's back in regarding the people of Myanmar rising up against there dictatorial government? Time will tell.
- The death toll following Monday's 7.9 earthquake in China continues to rise. BBC America this morning is reporting the death toll to be just under 15,000. The Chinese government is stepping up their rescue efforts and are allowing the media unprecedented access to the disaster area.

Last night I found the coolest web sight by Microsoft. It downloaded quickly over my DSL line and after restarting my computer I was able to take a couple of tours prior to sleeping last night. The sight? Microsoft's Worldwide Telescope
After I had it downloaded it took up a spot on my desktop. I am still trying to wade through the tremendous amount information that is found on this sight. It has a number of tours that one can take around the universe and galaxy. After having downloaded this sight I have come to realize that my computer time will probably increase.
