NDTV:
At least four houses perched on a hillside in Shimla have been washed away by a landslide caused by heavy rain, which has been battering parts of Himachal Pradesh since last week. Two people have died and 5-10 are feared trapped.
The incident took place in the city’s Krishna Nagar area around 5.30 pm today. A disturbing video of the landslide shows a tree leaning precariously and then falling on one of the houses, whose roof gets damaged. There’s a heart-stopping pause for a few seconds until the ground gives way, sending the damaged house and at least three others crashing down the hill.
Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said two people died in the incident. more
Global warming, no doubt. If the Feds would fund lucrative grants saying it was caused by global cooling, well, by gawd, the damage would have been caused by global cooling.
Did Oprah own one of the houses like in Montecito, California?
Don’t worry.
BeechMother can sort it out … for only a hundred dollars an hour.
P.S. Some dude once said, “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
