Update 08:51 UTC, April 26 :
Monitoring and prevention efforts will be stepped up as secondary geological events overlapping with the flood season present a tremendous challenge for disaster relief operations in Sichuan province's quake-hit areas, said a senior official of the provincial government on Thursday. Probe teams have discovered more than 1,900 high-risk spots in Lushan and Baoxing counties, Zhong Mian, executive deputy governor of Sichuan province, said at a news conference in Beijing. The two counties in Ya'an were the areas most affected by the magnitude-7 earthquake on April 20. "Ya'an is a place with abundant rainfall and heavy rain is very common during the flood season. Strong rain in the earthquake zone will easily trigger devastating geological disasters," Zhong said.
He said the weather has caused landslides along the major route for transporting disaster relief materials, which has made relief work difficult. Read more in this China Daily in-depth article.
ER remark : On request of the Prime Minister and the government, the relief operations are also investing a lot of energy to avoid secondary triggered events like landslides. The attention that this topic gets so short after the earthquake is a great step forward in earthquake response and should be an example for other countries.
Update 15:24 UTC, April 25 :
A 78-year-old man was rescued on Wednesday afternoon in Baoxing county, five days after an earthquake hit the area, according to the municipal government on Thursday. The man is the first survivor saved after the "golden rescue time," or the immediate 72 hours after the quake. He was found on a hill top at Muping Township of Baoxing County by the Beijing-based Lantian rescue team at about 1 pm Wednesday, and was sent to Baoxing People's Hospital by helicopter. The man suffered a rib fracture but is in stable condition.
Update 08:05 UTC, April 25 :
- Water safety remains a problem rescuers said on Wednesday. The specialized services sampled 15 sites from mountain springs, rivers, wells and water treatment plants in six villages in Longmen township, Lushan county. Analyzed in a laboratory set up in a tent, the water was found to be slightly turbid, organically contaminated and unsuitable for drinking. It can be used for washing clothes and showering. Villagers are informed not to drink water directly from mountain springs, rivers or wells. Villagers are thaught to use simple water treatment measures. Putting two potable water purification tablets in 15 liters of water and boiling it makes it safe to drink.
- School Classes are expected to fully resume on Saturday in the quake-hit region, according to the provincial educational department. Students prepare for important exams in improvised schoolrooms. Students elsewhere in the quake zone resumed classes on Tuesday. Priority is being placed on those facing college or high school entrance exams.
- China's State Council urged more efforts to minimize casualties and resettle affected residents. Chinese Premier Li Keqiang presided over the cabinet meeting and led the leaders to pay a silent tribute to quake victims. The rescue cannot be given up although the "golden rescue time," or the first 72 hours after the quake, is over. Rescuers should continue their all-out efforts in a scientific way, checking every corner to search for survivors, said a statement issued after the meeting.
Update 07:55 UTC, April 25 :
- The M4.5 @ 19 km depth earthquake early Thursday in Sichuan was not an aftershock but a new earthquake to the south of Chengdu. During that new earthquake we have counted 47 injuries, 24 collapsed houses and 4000 houses damaged
Update 09:25 UTC, April 24 :
- The fatality and missing statistics have been updated again. Now 196 people killed and 21 still missing. The numbers are only varying slightly. Double counting is almost absent during this earthquake, another major improvement.

- In urban housing, 67100 rooms have collapsed (around 9,500 buildings), and 71800 rooms have been severely damaged (around 10,000 buildings).
(by comparison, the Sichuan earthquake had around 5,360,000 rooms collapsed and around 21,000,000 rooms damaged.
- This earthquake is around 3-4% of the economic loss extent of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake. By comparison, the fatalities are about 0.25% of those from the much larger 2008 event.
- Models of direct loss from this event based on damage are coming out to between 4.1 billion (low, CATDAT) and 6.8 billion USD (high, Ampeng Group).
- The losses reported so far are totalling to around 10 billion CNY or 1.5 billion USD but this is expected to increase.
Earthquake damage estimate
Along with the 193 dead and 25 missing, the economic losses are predicted to be around 4.46 billion CNY in Ya'an alone. According to the Ampang Group - a Chinese group, the total losses could total 42.26 billion CNY (around 6.8 billion USD) if the functions from Sichuan are used. We will have to wait and see if the actual losses meet this figure.
Update 12:33 UTC, April 23 :
- The 7.0-magnitude earthquake that hit Lushan, Sichuan Province, on Saturday left 193 dead, 25 missing and 12,211 injured as of 6 a.m. Tuesday, the Ministry of Civil Affairs announced.
- European Union (EU) foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton on Tuesday sent condolences to China over the earthquake. "On the eve of my visit to Beijing, the news of the earthquake in Sichuan Province has profoundly moved me. I send my condolences to the families of those affected," said Ashton in a statement.
- Giant panda habitats near the epicenter of the 7.0-magnitude earthquake have suffered only minor effects , the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said on Tuesday. Aerial remote sensing images showed that the scale of landslides triggered by the quake in the giant pandas' base located in badly hit Baoxing County, Ya'an City, has not been that large so far, said the CAS.
- Rain began falling Tuesday morning in southwest China's Lushan County, hampering relief work and posing new threats such as rain-triggered landslides. In the village of Yuxi in Baosheng Township, hundreds of residents have moved from the tents they built to water-resistant ones.
- Medical workers take care of a newborn boy in a tent functioned as temporary hospital in quake-hit Taiping Township of Lushan County. Both mother and baby were fine. The boy's mother Yang Yan, a 20-year-old woman and father arrived at the hospital in the early morning on Tuesday, after taking a long journey for over three hours from their home in Xingmin Village of the Taiping Township.
Update 22:14 UTC, Monday 22nd April :
- Just at the time that we wrote this update and wanted to mention that the strong aftershocks were almost over, the strongest aftershock in 24 hours struck (early morning local time). The strength was limited to M4.5 at 19 km following the China seismological bureau. Other agencies in the world have reported higher values but we do trust the skills of the Chinese seismologists. Let's hope that the combination of this aftershock with the rain did not provoke landslides and has not made any more damage or injuries.
- The tea industry, one of the pillars of the local economy in Ya'an city was seriously affected by the disaster, farmers and companies said. Ya'an produced about 66,000 metric tons of tea last year. But as farmers were preparing this year's new spring tea, the city was hit by the quake. "On top of losses from a drought a few months ago, we expect much less production this year," said a local official
- Zhang Yichuan is a nurse in Lushan county. Just likes other medical staff, she was busy with rescuing people injured in the earthquake in SW China, but no one knew her mother just died in the quake. After learning the bad news and surrounded by tears and sadness, she still decided to return to work. She lost her mother, but didn't want others to lose theirs. "There are more people who need my help", she said.
Update 14:09 UTC, Monday 22nd April :
New report from the Chinese government : 192 are being confirmed dead and the number of injured has increased to 12,211 injured.
As the roads to Boaxing county have mostly been cleared from initial rubble, a lot of injured from Boaxing are currently being transported to the neighboring county hospitals.
- Rain is currently pouring out of the sky. This can seriously hamper the last couple of hours of the Golden time (time of 72 hours after the mainshock which enables rescuers to get people alive from below the rubble). Additionally, due to the aftershocks in combination with a mountainous landscape, the chance on landslide will increase considerably.
Update 13:41 UTC, Monday 22nd April :
A total of 198 rescuers from Russia will arrive at an airport in southwest China's Sichuan Province around noon on Monday and rush to the quake-hit Ya'an City, according to the provincial seismological bureau. The headquarters of the China Earthquake Administration has advised the Russian rescuers to go the worst-hit Baoxing County.
- Many governments from all over the world have offered condolences to the Chinese people for their hard suffering.
- Army helicopters have operated the first airdrop operations to deliver food and water for thousands of homeless survivors. Loaded with bottled water, instant noodles and other food, an Air Force helicopter took off from Qionglai Airport to Baosheng township. The Air Force has also deployed a second helicopter to drop food and water to Baosheng.
- 2360 aftershocks have been recorded by seismologists since the mainshock. Only a small percentage has been felt by the people. ER has the impression that the frequency of the moderate to strong aftershocks has been seriously dropped today. No guarantee however that it will be over.
- 1.5 million people have been affected by this earthquake in various ways
- Good news from Baoxing county where communications have now been restored
- Electricity has been restored in Lushan county
Update 13:03 UTC, Monday 22nd April :

- Traffic is almost normally again in Ya'an except for what is called "rescue highways" reserved for rescue and earthquake linked services.
- Insurance companies have started to payout the first compensations for earthquake related filings.
Summary 09:40 UTC, Monday 22nd April :
Rescuers race against time for quake victims <http://europe.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2013-04/22/content_16434347.htm>
Chinese rescue workers are in a race against time to save countless lives as aftershocks, landslides and rain hamper rescue efforts in Sichuan quake zone.
Meishan City has come through with their estimate of losses with some staggering numbers:-
Buildings both residential, commercial and industrial have had 352165 rooms damaged to various extents with a total loss of 2.036 billion yuan (330 million USD).
Damage to roads and bridges has caused 882 million yuan damage (143 million USD)
Damage to reservoirs, ditches, dikes, water infrastructure has caused 372 million CNY damage (60 million USD)
Damage to schools and hospitals - 261 million CNY (42 million USD).
Within Meishan city, Hongya County has 1.032 billion yuan of damages and Danleng county has 359 million CNY.
The total loss here is over 3.836 billion yuan, which when calculating back through the other damage locations, will probably lead to a 15-20 billion CNY total pricetag - around 2.5-3 billion USD.
Of this, the insurance loss will be likely less than 1%.
Summary 04:10 UTC, Monday 22nd April :
- The death toll has risen to 188 with 25 missing = 213 people.
- 171000 people are currently being cared for in 60000 tents.
- 26441 rooms (around 8000 houses) have collapsed.
- 142449 rooms (around 40000 houses) have been severely damaged.
- around 500,000 rooms are expected to have slight damage (around 150,000 additional houses/buildings).
- 214 reservoirs and 118.54km of dikes have been damaged in Sichuan province.
We again appeal to the world press to get their facts right. As with the Sichuan earthquake and many other Chinese earthquakes, CATDAT and earthquake-report.com are one of the only correct sources hence why our damaging earthquake reports and databases are the most reliable in the world. Chinese authorities count in rooms (roof between 2 lateral supports) and not in houses. It is impossible that there is more than 1 house per person!

- More than 10,000 soldiers, including 8,000 field forces and 5,000 militia, have arrived at the disaster-hit areas by foot, trucks and helicopters.
- The soldiers will search for survivors household by household and distribute materials to the affected villages.
- Sadly, a military vehicle carrying 17 soldiers en route to the quake-hit area plummeted off a cliff around Saturday noon, killing one soldier and badly injured two.
- About 200 technicians from China Mobile (Sichuan branch) have been dispatched to disaster-hit areas to repair the telecommunications network.
- Infrastructures remain intact in Sichuan but are badly damaged and broken in the epicenter and nearby.
- The State Grid Corporation of China (electricity) said the major lines in the province are operating smoothly, but those in the quake-hit area are severely damaged.
- In Lushan county, two transformer substations have halted service, with one of them unable to resume operation. Five hydropower stations in Ya'an are disconnected.
- According to the nation's major telecommunications companies, as many as 279 telecommunication base stations have collapsed due to the quake (ER repeats over and over that also base stations should be earthquake resistant - Telecommunications base stations are collapsing all over the world, again and again ...).
- The earthquake has also damaged 34 reservoirs or dams in Sichuan and affected the water supply for 303,000 people, according to the provincial water resources department.
- Sichuan has rich oil and gas resources, with many pipelines and refineries. Sinopec, Asia's largest refiner, said no damage had been reported at its production facilities in the quake-hit regions.

China's emergency response on disasters have made tremendous progress after the Wenchuan earthquake (we can only underwrite this claim - congratulations from ER)
Update 15:16 UTC : The video below shows the Chinese Prime Minister Li Keqiang visiting the heavily damaged epicenter area. We can confirm that the authorities almost immediately after the earthquake started bringing out reports and sending reinforcements to the earthquake zone. New leaders who really want to be an example for the population.
Li Keqiang was on the ground while the aftershocks were still going on.
Update 15:00 UTC
- Firefighters have pulled out 93 people from collapsed structures, including 91 survivors, as of 7:40 p.m Saturday
- The provincial military command also distributed over 1,000 sets of tents, small engines, protective oral-nasal masks and gloves to the area.
- In the meantime, the PLA Air Force (PLAAF) has opened four landing spots for helicopters in county seat and three townships of Lushan. The PLAAF have sent more than 10 sorties of rescue resources to the area.
- The PLA's General Staff Department on Saturday afternoon decided to equip a total of 260 sets of Beidou satellite positioning advices to the military units in the disaster area, and 103 sets have already entered the area as of 5 p.m. Beijing Time.
Update 14:50 UTC : It will be soon dark in China. Some electricity grids are still working but we can imagine that rescue work will be hampered by the night. Information from then on will be less informative. ER will however continue to bring you the latest information from the earthquake zone.
Update 14:19 UTC : The Governor of Sichuan is currently giving a detailed overview of what is going on in the earthquake zone and which efforts are being used to counter the misery.
- Chongqing eight houses collapsed, and one slightly injured
- Yunnan Province, nearly 900 houses were damaged
- Shaanxi Liuba County earthquake triggered the collapse of the mountain, one death
Update 14:19 UTC : - Of the many injured, 5,427 came from Ya'an. One person was even killed in the Shaanxi province (Province of Xi'an). Even more surprised about some fatalities as far as a couple of hundred km from the epicenter. As we do not know the exact reason of their deth, it may also have been secondary reason like heart attacks etc.
Update 14:07 UTC : 34 reservoirs have been damaged to a different extend. Not dangerous at this moment, but in case of a major M6+ aftershock, these reservoirs are forming a real risk to all the villages at lower levels.
The authorities have in the meanwhile evacuated the villages who have the highest risk to be flooded in case of a reservoir burst.
- 41 aftershocks have been recorded at a Magnitude M3 or higher.

Update 13:49 UTC : Our Bottom Map 1 looks more and more like a big red surface. The red buttons show the location of the aftershocks as reported by the main international agencies.
The death toll is now 157
- Donations numbers are now shown on the Chinese TV and people start to donate to empower the rescue efforts. Also private organizations are helping not only with money but also by sending goods and offering transport means.
Update 13:45 UTC : Chinese rescue forces are acknowledging the important role of the Internet in today's earthquake. As Mobile communications were only short time interrupted, people did start to send pictures from the devastation together with their location to the Rescue numbers. Even more, people are also using Portable routers enabling other people to make use of their 3G signal. Modern technology at the side of rescue efforts.
Update 13:01 UTC : 6000 people are now reported as injured
Update 12:56 UTC : The China Meteorological Bureau expects rain in Lushan
- Some seriously injured people have been transported to Chengdu, the provincial capital who has a lot more facilities
Our tribute goes to 2 soldiers who have died earlier today while rescuing people
Update 12:45 UTC : We are posting regular updates on TWITTER and FACEBOOK about the continuing events. Please subscribe to our accounts if you want to become a well informed world citizen.
We can propose you also to leave this page open in a browser tab. It will refresh even in the background. When you return you will always have the latest numbers and information
Update 12:43 UTC : 7,941 soldiers are at work in the earthquake zone at this moment. 10,000 more are standing by to be dispatched if a call comes from the disaster command.
Update 12:31 UTC : Earthquake-report.com expresses their admiration towards the Chinese SAR and Relief forces. They are doing a very great job. Chinese authorities have invested huge amounts of money in the organization of disaster response. It will not be perfect and people will be critical from all sites, but as 24/24 7/7 followers of earthquake disasters we are well placed to compare disaster response. We can only admire the efforts of the Chinese community.
Update 12:26 UTC : The death toll has further risen to 156. More than 2,000 people injured and this is currently expected to increase with numbers of slightly injured yet to be added from certain locations.
Update 12:22 UTC : As could be expected, aftershocks are continuing to strike the greater earthquake area, until now only limited in strength (maximum M5.2 ). Let's hope that there will be no M6 in the coming days. M6.0+ would be dangerous for unstable damaged structures and for the rescue personnel working.
Update 11:50 UTC: 54 people were rescued from collapsed houses in recent hours. Among them, two children and a pregnant woman.
It is impossible to tell the individual stories of all earthquake victims here. But we think this one is the best example to show the cruelty of this fatal quake:
A seven year old child was rescued from his collapsed home. He survived 9 hours in the arms of his killed mother. She protected the life of this boy with her body and had to die for it, while her son survived the quake without physical injuries.
Update 11:05 UTC : Number of casualities in Chengdu is also rising. 6 people were killed and 188 more injured in this town. So far, most of the casualities (57) coming from Lushan, one of the towns very close to the epicenter.
There are reports of 200 people in a small village trapped by a landslide blocking a road.
Update 10:42 UTC : Number of fatalities rises to 124.
Update 09:45 UTC : Overview of earthquake fatalities (total so far: 113) by town:
Lushan : 57, Baoxing : 6, Chengdu : 4, Tianquan : 3, Xinjin : 1, Hongya : 1, Luding : 1, Deyang : 1 and unknown: 39
Update 09:31 UTC : 113 people are confirmed dead. Meanwhile, it is estimated, that 90% of all houses in Ya'an area were damaged due to the earthquake.
Update 09:27 UTC : Chengdu, the largest town of Sichuan with approx. 10 mio inhabitants, is 100 northeast of the epicenter. 4 people were killed and 125 more were injured there by the quake.
Update 09:20 UTC : The good news: A man in Ya'an was found under the debris of a collapsed house. He was unconscious but obviously alive.
Update 09:11 UTC : A rumor in the internet currently scares people in Sichuan. It says Chengdu will be hit by an M 9.3 earthquake in the coming days. Of course this rumor is without any scientific evidence. We are shocked that some people use this terrible situation for a message like this. All we can say is, earthquakes are not predictable, neither by scientist, nor by "normal" people. So don't believe something like this!
Update 09:01 UTC : According to new reports, more than 3000 people were injured by the quake. Death toll is still at 102.
Update 08:56 UTC : One of the injured soldiers, whose bus falled into a river, died in hospital.
Update 08:49 UTC : New death tolls now arriving every few minutes. After new correction at leas 102 people are confirmed dead.
Update 08:40 UTC : Unfortunately we have to say that the death toll reached the number of 100.
Also a good news: A popular Chinese online news agency donates 1 mio. chinese Yuan (~160000 US-Dollar) for the earthquake victims. Money, that is urgently needed.
Update 08:30 UTC : Death toll rises to 82.
Update 08:27 UTC : A bus carrying 17 soldiers to earthquake area fell down a cliff into a river. One of the soldiers died, 5 others were seriously injured.
Update 08:05 UTC : About 80,000 prisoners have been evacuated from prisons in Sichuan. Among them, more than 2,000 were evacuated from a prison in Ya'an county. No deaths were reported among the prisoners, but one person was injured in the leg. Yes, this number of 80,000 is correct - this is for the whole of Sichuan. This must be an amazing amount of coordination by police.
Update 08:03 UTC : The Chinese response has been exceptional with the scale of the disaster also helping things compared to the 2008 earthquake. The Chinese are the best in the world for disaster response, with provincial seismological bureaus and even city-based disaster response.
Update 08:01 UTC : The death toll remains at 78, with around 2500 injured and 80,000 displaced/relocated/affected. It is likely that the economic losses will be over 1 billion USD, but less than 5 billion USD (up to 30 billion RMB). This depends a lot on the damage extent in Ya'an City.
Update 07:59 UTC : The earthquake has also had a few births, with one reported from an earthquake shelter, so it is not all gloomy.
Update 07:57 UTC : The power grid of Lushan county was damaged and water supply was cut off after the quake. Tents, water and food are badly needed.
- No student deaths have been reported, according to the education authority.
Update 07:32 UTC : 78 deaths and 2260 injured are the current numbers coming out of Sichuan. We are waiting for second confirmation.
Update 07:29 UTC : Unfortunately, there has been 1 death and 7 injured as a result of a car crash from soldiers coming to rescue people in Ya'an. Our thoughts are with their families as with all of the affected people.
Update 07:24 UTC : The Ministry of Civil affairs has launched a National Emergency III response, which is less than a IV response.
Cracks can be seen in Modong Reservoir and Miaoxi Reservoir in Lushan county, and Shiyang Reservoir in Tianquan county. People downstream of this have been evacuated and structural checks are being made to the reservoirs.
Here is a more global view of reservoir hazard due to earthquakes. A reminder that the risk of the green dots is probably more as most countries of low seismicity do not have as higher quality earthquake construction.
Update 07:15 UTC : Like the 2008 Sichuan earthquake a lot of landslides have been seen from aerial footage of the earthquake.
The National Red Cross starts Emergency Response Mechanism for this earthquake and in addition, there are around 2000 medical workers currently on the scene.
Update 07:08 UTC : Although aftershocks can occur within 1.5 fault lengths of an earthquake, this is likely not an aftershock of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake. It is significantly far away from the end of the earthquake slip & fault model that was computed by seismologists after. It is possibly the stress transfer however from the 2008 earthquake which may have influenced this quake with a slight increase in stress in the fault zones around the 2008 fault break due to stress release and transfer.
Update 07:03 UTC : This quake has been felt in all the surrounding Provinces (see our I Have Felt It reports below). The Chengdu Railway system has been partially reopened and in addition the prime minister is currently flying over the scene to gauge the destruction.
Update 07:00 UTC : The total of 71 deaths remains. As of 13:00 local time, firefighters from Sichuan province have rescued 34 people out of the debris of the quake, of whom 32 people, including a pregnant woman and two children, survived.
Update 06:55 UTC : Flood prevention office of Lushan county said that cracks can be seen in Modong Reservoir and Miaoxi Reservoir in Lushan county, and Shiyang Reservoir in Tianquan county. People in downstream have been evacuated.
Update 06:50 UTC : 71 have now been confirmed killed (at least from CCTV sources). All patients in Lushan hospital are sound and safe. Firefighters in Ya'an saved 9 rubble-trapped people. CCTV says 71 have been killed but still shows a TV banner with 56 deaths, so we will need to be cautious however since CCTV gets info from Rescue authorities directly this is a better source than Reuters!
Update 06:46 UTC : Cracks have appeared in some Lushan reservoirs. This could prove dangerous if another major quake comes along before repairs can be made. The 1933 Diexi earthquake some of our readers will remember caused over 5000 deaths via flooding after downstream towns were decimated by a huge wave of water from a failed reservoir and quake lakes formed by landslides.
Update 06:45 UTC : We have unconfirmed reports of 58 deaths.
Update 06:35 UTC : As with the "fake death toll" of Reuters sources in the Iran earthquake about a week ago of 40 deaths in Iran when there were actually 0 killed in Iran, there is no evidence that this earthquake has killed over 57 people despite all the death tolls above them currently in world press.
Update 06:30 UTC : The toll of 135 severely injured and 600-700 slightly injured is expected to rise. Ya'an City has around 1.53 million people living over an area of 15,300km2. As for the 57 deaths, this toll has not changed for a long time, and is generally updated fast in China following these events like the 7.9 earthquakes which killed 81 people last year.
Update 06:27 UTC : Along with the 6600+ troops that have been sent to the area previously in the last few hours - (this coordination and rescue effort is nothing short of amazing), 40 emergency repair vehicles, 20 satellite phones, 100 kilometers of fiber optic cable, 128 oil tankers, emergency communications vehicles, etc. emergency communications supplies, tents, drinking water and many more supplies have been sent to the area.
This will allow for quick resupply of basic needs for the people in Ya'an and other majorly affected areas.
Update 06:07 UTC : The video below is showing the aerial images we have reported from before. The Chinese Prime Minister is currently in an airplane towards the epicenter area to see with his own eyes what the extend of the damage is.
- Rescuers in Lushan had pulled 27 survivors out of rubble
- No children reported injured in the damaged kindergarten
Update 05:55 UTC : some more pictures to show our readers the extend of the damage. The death toll still stands at 56 since quite some time now.
Update 05:38 UTC : The current earthquake has about 30 times less energy released than the M7.8 Wenshuan 2008 earthquake.
Update 05:31 UTC : This report is partly based on CCTV where we can follow live what is happening in China. Local sources, Live tv signal and the earthquake technical data are helping us out to deliver a complete information of this earthquake.
Update 05:24 UTC : As mostly with earthquakes, it were mostly older buildings and houses who have collapsed.
- The picture below is from a Chinese TV host who married today and who went immediately on air after the earthquake struck.

Comic for December 02, 2020
28 minutes ago
Truly, this Sunday will be "Low"!
"You are the ones who are happy; you who remain within the Church by your Faith, who hold firmly to the foundations of the Faith which has come down to you from Apostolic Tradition. And if an execrable jealousy has tried to shake it on a number of occasions, it has not succeeded. They are the ones who have broken away from it in the present crisis. No one, ever, will prevail against your Faith, beloved Brothers. And we believe that God will give us our churches back some day."
-- St. Athanasius

|Drug: AZT+3TC+ABV (Trizivir) Drug: Switching to LPV/r monotherapy (Kaletra)
|Phase 4
In recent years mayor progress has been made in therapeutic approaches with the introduction of HAART, which has meant a huge fall in morbidity-mortality in Western countries.
However, despite having a variety of potent HAART combinations, some patients do not obtain adequate suppression. The causes of virological failure are complex, and one of the most significant factors is the incomplete compliance with the prescribed dosage of highly-active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). The development of fixed dose combination products is most commonly used to help simplify the dosages and improve treatment compliance.
One of the main problems associated with the treatment of HIV infection is the change in body structure, generally grouped under the term of lipodystrophy. These usually include fat accumulation in the stomach, or abdominal girth, and, even worse, atrophy in the face, arms, and legs. It is usually associated with metabolic disorders, with increased levels of triglycerides, cholesterol and/or insulin resistance.
The incidence of lipodystrophy increases progressively over time in patients starting treatment with antiretroviral agents. It is estimated that, after 2 years of treatment, 20%-30% of patients experience moderate or severe lipodystrophy.
Trizivir® is a combination of three antiretroviral agents: Abacavir, Lamivudine and Zidovudine in a tablet. All of them belong to the group of nucleoside/nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs.
The main advantage of Trizivir is the possibility of simplifying antiretroviral treatment. Multiple studies have been performed showing that simplification of HAART with Trizivir enhances compliance and improves quality of life in patients maintaining the efficacy of previous antiretroviral treatments.
Kaletra® (lopinavir+ritonavir) is a combination of two protease inhibitors: lopinavir plus a low dose of ritonavir, enhancing the action of the former.
Previous studies have shown that most patients treated with Kaletra monotherapy have an undetectable viral load after 48 weeks. Monotherapy failures were not associated with the development of primary resistance mutations.
To date the development of lipoatrophy appears to occur more frequently in patients with a NRTI- containing regimen. The combination of abacavir, zidovudine and lamivudine has been investigated in patients naive to antiretroviral treatments and in patients already treated with NRTIs.
In this setting, we designed this clinical trial to establish the potential benefit of Kaletra in monotherapy for the prevention of lipoatrophy. For this purpose, we will compare keeping on treatment with TZV in patients with viral suppression vs switching to Kaletra in monotherapy in order to prevent fat changes.
Since the purpose of the study is to establish the ability of Kaletra to prevent the development of and exclude patients with acute intolerance to Kaletra, the patients assigned to the experimental group will be treated for 4 weeks with Trizivir and Kaletra before switching to Kaletra monotherapy.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy's vast destruction, financial advisors across the country may be experiencing a sudden rush of clients pouring into their offices, eager to revisit their financial plans and make sure they are in the best possible shape.
This is only to be expected, said Barbara Friedberg, a professor of finance at Santa Clara University in California who also manages money privately for some clients, since most investors don't really account for force majeure. When events like Sandy happen, people go into a tailspin.
Sure, thoughts of cataclysmic events do crop up every now and then, and there are some who worry about these things more than others. However, as a general rule, very few individuals factor the unexpected into their financial thinking and planning, Friedberg said, because the human brain resists change, and "people are slow to update their beliefs to new evidence."
Weather services had been warning about the dangers of Sandy for days before the hurricane hit the East Coast, but nevertheless, there were many who didn't heed the warnings: people who said, "We never lose power so we won't lose power now," Friedberg said.
That mindset extends to financial planning, she explained, manifesting itself as a "conservatism bias" in behavioral parlance, meaning that very few people account for the impacts of natural disasters on investment portfolios and financial plans.
If and when these events occur, there's no doubt that their effects can be disastrous. But when they do take place, these force majeure events also result in investors acting out of complete panic in a manner that can sometimes be quite irrational.
"Investors also manifest another behavioral bias known as forecasting error, where they give too much weight to recent events," Friedberg said. "People go from thinking 'that kind of thing can never happen to us' to feeling completely distressed and out of control, believing then that we'll just have more unexpected events of the same magnitude."
Whether or not Hurricane Sandy served to add fuel to the argument put forth by a growing number of scientists that global climatic change will only engender more ferociously unpredictable weather phenomena, Friedberg believes that it's up to investment advisors to see this period as an opportunity to create balance between conservatism and forecasting error.
Financial advisors have a good opportunity now to educate their clients as to the importance of extensive financial planning, Friedberg said.
"After a catastrophic event of this nature, people really wake up as there's a sense of urgency that comes about," she said. That offers advisors the perfect platform from which to talk about such products as natural disaster insurance, which many investors may otherwise brush off.
More importantly, it also creates an opportunity to thoroughly revise a financial plan, making sure that all legal documents clients need for their working lives as well as their retired lives – including estate planning and legacy documents — are in place and up to date. The strength of natural disasters like Hurricane Sandy cannot be quantified and could result even in the loss of life.
It may seem that events like Sandy are happening more frequently than they used to, so this is a good time for advisors to take advantage of their clients' frenzied mindsets by having them think more about the unthinkable, while ensuring that they still remain rational in that thinking, Friedberg said.
"There is an urgency that comes about after events like Sandy, and once people have either experienced loss or seen loss, they start to want to plan for it," she said.

Stories Last Shared: A Tribute to Porter Wagoner
Porter Wagoners' songs will carry on in us like an everlasting sunset. I had spoken with Porter just a few days before his 80th birthday to record this interview. What was meant to be a one hour feature promoting his new Wagonmaster CD, has instead been rewritten into a special one-hour-farewell tribute for a gentleman who spent his lifetime creating for us, and in his words proclaimed, "It's the best album I've made in my whole career." I promise that you won't be alone if a few tears suddenly fall from your eyes as he sings.

Anderson Cooper 360 Features MAN MAN
Yesterday, CNN's AC360 devoted the RidicuList segment to the Man Man song "End Boss," an homage to host Anderson Cooper's colleague, Wolf Blitzer. Host Anderson Cooper, obviously thrilled, played the song from the band's new album On Oni Pond, noting that the lyrics feature Wolf on a series of delightfully surrealistic adventures. "Wolf crisscross dying lawns, sniff hard on dying lawns." and "wolf cuts loose in the barrio, lemon vodka mixed with churros." Cooper then unveiled a photo of singer Honus Honus wearing a tunic emblazoned with images of Blitzer's head.
In response, Honus Honus commented, "Anderson, you're welcome at any Man Man show and if the Wolf tunic hasn't been stolen I will happily let you rock it. I'm sure you'll look much more handsome in it anyway."

Hi Guys.. Hope you've had a good week and earnt a few quid to spend for your own pleasure ?? I suggest a good (...) Cox-Common
Sluts Cox-Common
He had actually done all he might for his siblings' household. He had actually taken care of his bros' will make sure Julia was well offered for and assisted his 2 oldest nieces and nephew get settled in their brand-new tasks.
Ernesto led her to the cooking area, put some coffee for both, took a seat and looked Julia directly in the eyes, and asked; 'What's troubling you Julia, exists something else you wish to state prior to I leave tomorrow early morning?'
Tomorrow never ever came, the next early morning, Julia's loud cry filled the home. Ernesto came rapidly to his bro's space, however regretfully, his sibling was now gone. The funeral service had actually brought the little household together, and then, everybody was house once again.
Ernesto Fuentes got off the aircraft at Cox-Common, and after getting his one piece of baggage for his brief stay to see his ailing sibling. After a couple of words and some intros, Ernesto went in to see his sibling, Phillipe.
It had actually been years given that he had actually seen his sibling, and now, seeing him as he lay in his bed, he looked so much older, helpless, and exhausted. Julia came in with some coffee and sweetbread for Ernesto, and then he and his sibling talked.
' Being my bros' other half, and offering him a great household is excellent enough for me. I do not require anything else.'
' However I have another thing to ask of you, then you are totally free to live your life.'
Throughout the years, his partner had actually died, Ernesto had actually ended up being totally included with his work, a lot so, that prior to he understood it, practically 12 years had actually passed. Because that time, he had actually ended up being familiar with living alone, his kids had actually matured, went to college, wed, and moved away. Sure, they visited him typically, as did he, however, he never ever believed as soon as about relocating with them.
' You understand Ernesto, all you have actually provided for us has actually been great. My 2 earliest have you to thank for their tasks, you have actually set my affairs in order, and now I will have a pension to live off. All these things would not have actually been possible without you.'
Ernesto might not envision what else he might perhaps do. All the important things he had actually done, had actually been for his sibling and his household. Being a lawyer, the documents and the legalities included had been simple, now, what else could she perhaps desire?
My God Julia call girl Cox-Common, do you understand how old my kids are? They are nearly as old as you!'
' No, this will just not work brothels Cox-Common, and it would be far much better if we both forget we even had this discussion!'
Julia took a look at him, with unhappiness in her eyes, she carefully took his face in her hands. It was a long time out prior to she spoke once again.
Ernesto Fuentes got off the aircraft at Cox-Common, and after getting his one piece of baggage for his brief stay to see his ailing sibling. After a couple of words and some intros, Ernesto went in to see his bro, Phillipe.
Ernesto might not believe anything else to state, so he simply took a seat and put his head in his hands.

Bigger, badder and better for 2009, our two bang-bang behemoths East and West dance will host many of the biggest names in dance music. From disco to dubstep and booty bass to breaks, these two big tops will be filled from top to bottom by day with musical treats to suit all manner of ear-tastes.
When the sun is well and truly down, we're hugely excited to announce that the Novak 3D Disco will be making its festival world premiere in the Dance Village as part of our nightly entertainment. Featuring eye-popping high-definition graphics, and revisiting more pop-culture than you could with a time-travelling DeLorean, 3D Disco combines cutting-edge club music with a classic twist and epic visuals that spill from the screens… literally!
As if this sensory overload isn't enough, exclusively at Glastonbury 3D Disco meets Silent Disco, to turn our after-hours entertainment into a groundbreaking audio-visual experiment, and make sure there's somewhere to party 'til the sun comes up!
And don't forget the outdoor G-stage for all those ravers who can't wait to stomp their feet firmly into the famous Glastonbury dirt. Come rain or shine it'll be blasting out a soundtrack of squelching basslines, tribal rhythms and four-to-the-floor head bangers.
The leftfield stylings of the inimitable Pussy Parlure will, as ever, be held in the beautiful oversized music box that is their 1930's Spiegeltent. With comedic cabaret, must-move music and plenty of burlesque bounce, fans of the fringe won't have far to travel.
So, from esoteric treats for true musical swashbucklers to conventional curios for the less adventurous amongst us, the Dance Village has something for everyone. Add to all this the mellowing influence of the triple-domed Magic Bubbles area offering friendly food and carefully orchestrated chill-out; the mysteriously named Boudoir which is… well you'll just have to wait and see; and make-over masters Bitch-n-Stitch on hand to pimp-out your party, and, well what more could you want? Oh yeah, then there's the rest of the Festival! Enjoy!
