Earthquake In China,Hundreds dead Toll Expected To Rise

Philip Wen
China correspondent for Fairfax Media






Premier Li Keqiang , who was travelling to the disaster area, also urged local authorities to try everything possible to save those injured and buried in rubble, while emphasising the importance of maintaining social order in the quake zone.

More than 400 aftershocks, all measuring below 5 in magnitude, as well as heavy rain, hampered rescue efforts overnight.

The Zhaotong party secretary said there had been great difficulty in moving a large number of victims, because of blocked roads and a lack of resources.

The main road leading to the most heavily affected area was initially blocked by a landslide but had been cleared by late Sunday, according to the state news media.

The earthquake, which struck on Sunday at 4.30pm local time, was powerful enough to be felt in two neighbouring provinces, Chinese state broadcaster CCTV said.

Ma Liya, a resident of Zhaotong, told state news agency Xinhua that the streets there were like a “battlefield after bombardment.”  Read more


Fisherman's bid to sell world's oldest message in a bottle on eBay thwarted

Konrad Fischer pulled the beer bottle from the water off the coast of Kiel in northern Germany in March this year.

“This is certainly the first time such an old message in a bottle has been found,” said Holger von Neuhoff from the International Maritime Museum in Hamburg.

“Particularly with the bottle intact.” Within the sealed bottle, Mr Fischer found a postcard dated May 17, 1913.

The postcard was written by a 20-year-old baker’s son, Richard Platz, and simply asked the finder to send the bottle on to his address in Berlin.

More than 100 years later, researchers tracked down Mr Platz’s granddaughter, Angela Erdmann.

While Mr Fischer tried to sell the bottle on eBay so he could repair his 78-year-old boat Maria, Ms Erdmann was working to ensure that the sale could never go ahead.

On Monday, Ms Erdmann succeeded in putting in a claim of ownership for the bottle, halting the auction minutes before it was due to end at €3660 ($5240). Read more
