Awareness on Eye Pledging and Eye Donation ‘Gift Your Sight’ Campaign @ iGate Bangalore on 22nd Feb 2006 The campaign was conducted to increase the Awareness of Eye Donation among the public‚ as of now‚ Bangalore. This is in-line with my efforts to spread the message among the people of the Importance of eyes and Importance of eye donation‚ done after death. Lots of eyes are getting wasted‚ either thru burial of the dead body or thru burning. Instead of this‚ eyes can be donated so that a Corneally-blind

TAMOY LOGAN GRADE 8E What is a Tsunamis? Tsunami are waves caused by sudden movement of the ocean due to earthquakes‚ landslides on the sea floor‚ land slumping into the ocean‚ large volcanic eruptions or meteorite impact in the ocean. • Tsunamis generally consist of a series of waves withperiods ranging from minutes to hours‚ arriving in a so-called "wave train".[4] Wave heights of tens of metres can be generated by large events. Although the impact of tsunamis is limited to coastal areas‚ their

Cascadian Tsunami "Barely had they set foot in the city in mourning the death of their benefactor‚ they feel the earth shake beneath their feet‚ the sea rises bubbling in the harbor‚ and breaks the vessels that are to anchor. Swirls of flames and ashes covered the streets and public places; houses collapsed‚ roofs are reversed on the foundations‚ and foundations disperse‚ and thirty thousand inhabitants of all ages and sexes were crushed under the ruins‚ said the sailor‚ whistling and swearing:

Tsunamis‚ the ins and outs What is a tsunami? Tsunamis (Japanese for “Harbor Wave”) are series of waves that are characterized by their massive wavelengths‚ often about 120 miles long‚ whereas a normal wave has one of about 333 feet‚ and destruction that they bring when they hit land. They are often called tidal waves‚ but incorrectly so. They have virtually nothing to do with the tides. Tsunamis can range from a few feet in height to over a hundred feet

A tsunami is a giant wave of series of waves usually caused to be a volcanic eruption or earthquakes o the seabed. As the Tsunami travels through deep water‚ the wave may

The Causes of Tsunami All tsunamis are caused by the sudden displacement of large volumes of water. All are the result of violent events with enough power to displace large volumes very rapidly. Moreover‚ Tsunamis are often referred to high waves of water caused by changes in the flow and surge of the ocean. On the other hand‚ Tsunamis can be caused by a few different factors‚ which are an earthquake‚ a large-scale undersea landslide‚ a submarine volcanic eruption (Cause of Tsunami‚ n.d.).

Main article: Historic tsunami[->0] As early as 426 B.C.[->1] the Greek[->2] historian Thucydides[->3] inquired in his book History of the Peloponnesian War[->4] about the causes of tsunami‚ and was the first to argue that ocean earthquakes must be the cause.[5]HYPERLINK \l "cite_note-Smid.2C_T._C._103f.-5"[6] The cause‚ in my opinion‚ of this phenomenon must be sought in the earthquake. At the point where its shock has been the most violent the sea is driven back‚ and suddenly recoiling with

Multiple Wave Damage * Tsunamis arrive with multiple waves‚ with the stronger ones typically arriving after the first one hits. Given the shape of the underwater shore‚ significant amounts of water get pushed upward and higher at the coast‚ allowing the tidal water to flow higher than it normally would. Anything that is loose on the ground gets swept up and bounced around like cork. Because water is so heavy as a mass‚ it can move cars‚ wood‚ metal‚ cement‚ and debris. All of this material with
