October Snow in Colorado

The first big snowstorm of the season hit Colorado in the last week of October 2009. Hundreds of flights were cancelled at Denver International Airport, and interstate highways leading from Denver to Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming were closed due to blizzard conditions. Some locations in Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming received several feet of snow.

Sunny skies on October 31, 2009, allowed the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite to capture this view of the whitened landscape. Snow highlights the rugged mountains as well as the urban and agricultural landscapes of the plains. Denver appears as a grayish patch near image center, and a broad swath of snow sweeps eastward to the Kansas state line. The patchwork of fields and pastures that dominates the Colorado plains is most obvious around the margins of the snowy areas.

TOKYO — November 3, 2009 - Former President George W. Bush threw out the ceremonial first pitch before Game 3 of the Japan Series between the Yomiuri Giants and Nippon Ham Fighters.

Bush, wearing a Yomiuri warmup jacket, took the mound Tuesday at Tokyo Dome and threw a pitch to Giants catcher Shinnosuke Abe that bounced once in the dirt before being caught.

Bush chatted briefly with several players after walking off the field and watched the game in a private box with former Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi. Also in the box were Japanese home run king Sadaharu Oh and U.S. Ambassador John Roos.

The Giants won the game 7-4 to take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series, Japan's version of the World Series.

ColumbiaReports.com | 9,000 at risk from Galeras and Huila volcanos - Both volcanos are on a code orange alert and could errupt imminently

Around 9,000 people living in the risk zones of the Galeras and Huila volcanos have ignored orders to evacuate the vicinity, national emergency services warned Tuesday. Both volcanos are on a code orange alert and could errupt imminently.

"The community in the high threat area have listened to advice and have not evacuated to safe points. Occupation is minimal in the hostels we have provided, there are only 160 people. These shelters can accommodate five thousand people at least," national emergency services director Carlos Ivan Marquez told Caracol Radio.

Officials in southern Colombia Sunday issued a code orange alert for the newly-active Galeras volcano which they said could erupt in a matter of days or weeks.

Authorities said they are continuing to monitor the nearby Nevado del Huila volcano, also on orange alert, where sizeable volcanic activity also has been detected in recent weeks.

Marquez asked locals to heed emergency warnings and evacuate from the high risk areas.

The International Red Cross is maintaining constant monitoring of the two volcanos. The aid organization is ready to implement a hospital system and deliver humanitarian supplies of food if necessary
