A. A Satellite is A GeoStationary Body revolving alongwith our Earth at same speed i.e 24 Hrs per Day. An Operator in a Weather Station can control the Movement of Satellite and focus it on desired location. For India if there is a disaster such as Floods, Cyclones, Hurricanes etc in Mumbai or Chennai then INSAT 2,3, 4 and S Type 108 Satellites can be launched and activated to focus on Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Chennai, New Delhi and Bangalore Cities. News Channels and Radio Broadcasters such as BBC, CNN are connected to 24 HRS Online Satellites for their supply fo News, Information and Important Databases.

What is the difference between a disaster and a catastrophe?
Q. What is the difference between a disaster and a catastrophe? im not quite sure if its A or B, im rally considering A, because they are two words that mean kainda the same thing, but catastrophe is more more like omg ahh thats crazy.. lol more serious dengrous. A. They are two words that mean essentially the same thing B. A community recovers from a disaster within a few years. If the system is so badly damaged that recovery efforts stall, affecting the way of life in the community for decades or even permanently, then it becomes a catastrophe.

A. The differences of the level of severity's are disaster, catastrophe, tragedy and atrocity respectively. Sometimes more than one can also define. disaster: a calamitous event, esp. one occurring suddenly and causing great loss of life, damage, or hardship, as a flood, airplane crash, or business failure. catastrophe: a sudden and widespread disaster. tragedy: a dramatic composition, often in verse, dealing with a serious or somber theme, typically that of a great person destined through a flaw of character or conflict with some overpowering force, as fate or society, to downfall or destruction. atrocity: an atrocious (extremely or shockingly wicked, cruel, or brutal) act, thing, or circumstance.

What disaster is equilivent to a nuclear bomb?
Q. What type of natural disaster of equal to that of a hydrogen bomb? Equal as in most destructive to a specific location, and most fatal to population. 10.0 Earthquake? F5 Tornado? 10 Degrees of latitude Hurricane? Volcanic Eruption? Mega Tsunami? Meteor?
Asked by Aaron - Fri Jul 11 05:04:49 2008 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments
A. They all could be equivalant. Its just a matter of where the disater hits as to how much damage it produces. An F5 tornado took a whole town off the map (Greensburg KS May 4, 2007). It literally leveled everything, and it looked like a hydrogen bomb went off only there was no crater. A meteor though would probably wipe out half the world, with the after effects it would have on the world (Mega tusnamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the insuing ice age that could follow) would be comparabe to thousnads of H bombs going off at once

What are the practical ways we can do to prepare ourselves for any disaster here in the Philippines?
Q. As the damage wrought by the typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng have shown, Disaster preparedness (I say preparedness because NO ONE can stop a natural calamity from occuring except God) is as important as Disaster response.

Always have a ready supply of canned goods, flashlights and battery operated radio. Do not wait for predictions/forecasts by various agencies.

In a disaster response zone, which profession is needed the most?

Q. Ever since I heard about all the dogs left behind during Katrina and the ones that were not allowed into shelters because their owners didn't have proper crates for them, i have been so worried the same would happen to my dogs.

They are best because the dog has full view out of the metal bars to see it's surroundings. Dogs in plastic vari kennels don't have a very good view out and can become more agitated in them.

How to make a change in a balance sheet due to natural disaster?
Q. This is for accounting homework.. The farm has barns and sheds worth $19,100 A tornado struck and completely destroyed one of the barns, worth $45,00. It was not insured against this type of disaster. Explain what changes will be required in your balance sheet to reflect the loss of this barn.
Asked by Pretty_Bunny - Fri Jun 26 11:32:39 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Your transaction entry should consist of three items: 1. Credit assets for the original cost of the barn. 2. Debit accumulated depreciation for the amount associated with the barn. 3. Debit Extraordinary Expenses with the balance. By the way, it doesn't matter if this occurs within the "normal" tornado belt or someplace where a tornado occurs once in a century. The loss of property, even in the tornado belt, is a rare occurrence. Hope this helps Jerry-the-bookkeeper

A. Your transaction entry should consist of three items: 1. Credit assets for the original cost of the barn. 2. Debit accumulated depreciation for the amount associated with the barn. 3. Debit Extraordinary Expenses with the balance. By the way, it doesn't matter if this occurs within the "normal" tornado belt or someplace where a tornado occurs once in a century. The loss of property, even in the tornado belt, is a rare occurrence. Hope this helps Jerry-the-bookkeeper

A. The cars and motorcycle should be covered under their own policies. Depending on the type of boat and trailer, same with them. (If it is a small boat, under $40k, it might have coverage). What will be covered for your house depends on your policy. If the replacement cost of your house is $250k, and you have $250k of coverage, it will be replaced completely, less your deductible. Most home policies have coverage for personal property (not counting vehicles and large boats) of 50% of the value of your home. In this case, up to $125k. This seems to be enough to cover your personal stuff. You need to try to remember what company insured your house and vehicles, and give them a call. Hopefully you were insured up to the value of your house.… [cont.]
