Date of disaster:
December 26, 2004

Type of Disaster:
Undersea megathrust earthquake

Description of Disaster:
On december 26, 2004 an undersea megathrust earthquake occurred at 00:58:53 UTC , with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The quake itself is known by the scientific community as the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake. This earthquake resulted in a tsunami wich is usually refered to as the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, Asian Tsunami, Indonesian Tsunami, and Boxing Day Tsunami.

Visuals of the Disaster:

According to the U.S. Geological Survey a total of 227,898 people died . Measured in lives lost, this is one of the ten worst earthquakes in recorded history, as well as the single worst tsunami in history.

The tsunami caused serious damage and deaths as far as the east coast of Africa, with the furthest recorded death due to the tsunami occurring at Rooi Els in South Africa, 8,000 km away from the epicentre. In total, eight people in South Africa died due to abnormally high sea levels and waves.

Relief agencies report that one-third of the dead appear to be children. This is a result of the high proportion of children in the populations of many of the affected regions and because children were the least able to resist being overcome by the surging waters. Oxfam went on to report that as many as four times more women than men were killed in some regions because they were waiting on the beach for the fishermen to return and looking after their children in the houses.

In addition to the large number of local residents, up to 9,000 foreign tourists enjoying the peak holiday travel season were among the dead or missing, especially people from the Nordic countries.

States of emergency were declared in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and the Maldives. The United Nations estimated at the outset that the relief operation (which is presently still underway) would be the costliest in human history. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan has stated that reconstruction would probably take between five and ten years. Governments and non-governmental organisations fear the final death toll may double as a result of diseases, prompting a massive humanitarian response.

The Three Part Paragraph

Hellen Keller said; “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it.” This can be seen all around us. Many people have faced great obstacles in their lives but have found ways to overcome and actually benefit from these obstacles. For example, Greg Barton, the 1984, 1988, and 1992 U.S Olympic medalist in kayaking, was born with a serious disability. He had club feet, his toes pointed inward, and as a result, he could not walk easily. Even after a series of operations, he still had limited mobility. Even so, Greg was never defeated. First, he taught himself to walk, and even to run .Then, he competed on his high school running team. He knew, though, he would never become an Olympic runner, so he looked for other sports that he could play. Happily, he discovered kayaking, a perfect sport for him because it required minimal leg and foot muscles. Using his upper body strength, he was able to master the sport. Finally, after many years of training and perseverance, Greg made the 1984 Olympic team. He says of his accomplishments, “Each step of the road has been made easier by looking just as far as necessary – yet not beyond that.” In short, even though that road was paved with obstacles, he was able to overcome them and achieve the impossible

LANCE AMSTRONG

Lance Armstrong was born on September 18 of 1971 in Plano, Texas. He is a professional road racing cyclist and became famous because he survived testicular cancer; a tumor had metastasized to his brain and lungs in 1996 and after that, he has won “Tour de France” during seven consecutive years being the first man to do so and becoming a legend of Cycling. His cancer treatments included brain and testicular surgery and extensive chemotherapy, and his prognosis was originally poor, less of 40 percent to survive. He chose a treatment to avoid the lung toxicity associated with the drugs and that may have saved his cycling career. In 1998 he made a comeback in Paris, Niza with bad results with the U.S Postal Team. But that year he won in Luxemburg and had a great performance in “La Vuelta a España”. Later in 1999 he started with his victory of seven consecutive wins in “Tour de France”. Showing that faith is the last thing we should lose, and that every obstacle can be overcome with perseverance and hard work

THE WRITING PROCESS: EDITING

Editing is check for grammar, spelling, punctuation and capitalization

*GRAMMAR: Concentrate first on verbs. For example, if you have written about a past event in your life, you will need to check that the verbs are in past tense. Once you have checked the verbs, you should check carefully those aspects of grammar that you personally have most difficulty with.

*SPELLING: When you read though your writing, you may stop at words that you have spelled incorrectly, and you should check them in the dictionary or ask someone.
If you are writing on a computer, you should run the spell check. This will help you correct most of your mistakes


*PUNCTUATION: You must check to make sure you have not written any run-on sentences or sentence fragments. In correcting these problems, you usually need to change the punctuation. You can check to make sure that other aspects of your punctuation are correct. For example: Have you punctuated correctly sentences that contain direct speech? Are your end punctuation marks correct? Have you used commas correctly?

*CAPITALIZATION: Check that your sentences all start with a capital letter. You also need capital letters for all proper nouns.

Hi my name is Heberto Bravo; I was born on February 5 of 1990 in Maracaibo; I'am student of public accountacy in Urbe... I really like sports, specially soccer...

I really think that in every process the most important part is not the result but the way you get to it. Because we can learn many things during the process before acomplishing an actual purpose.. and for that reason I chose this quote... "Finding the right Question is more valuable an rewarding than finding the right answer"
