Life of Priyooh

It was very shocking reading stories about australian bush fire. Heat everywhere. Even kevin rudd the PM said, it was like a Hell. Today, the deaths climb to 186.

Members of the Victorian police force’s Disaster Victim Identification team have spent days searching through the rubble and ash of fire-ravaged towns for anything that can identify those caught in the blazes.

In many cases very little, except small amounts of DNA and pieces of jewellery, remain. Police then have the painstaking task of cross-referencing the DNA with the long lists of missing persons.

Stephen Fontana, assistant police commissioner, said the job of identifying victims was a difficult and slow task but “had to be done properly”.

“We’ve actually got a team looking at unaccounted for persons and that’s checking… data that we have in terms of residents that lived in those areas, bearing in mind there may have been visitors to those areas,” he said.

Christine Nixon, the police commissioner, warned that more bodies would be found as police gained access to several properties previously too unsafe to access.

It’s also shocking news from here.

THE gruesome reality of the search through the rubble of Victoria’s fires has become clearer as police admit it is difficult to determine whether remains come from one person, or even if they are human.

Police today announced the death toll from the savage fires had risen to 189, only eight more than their last update on Thursday, and would continue to rise.

The revised toll included 40 from the hamlet of Strathewen from its population of 200, while 36 have so far been confirmed dead in Marysville which is expected to lose 100 of its 500 residents.

While 10 more victims were identified in Strathewen and 21 more in Marsyville, the number of dead has gone down in some areas after remains were fully identified.

The toll in the Churchill fire in Gippsland dropped from 21 to 10.

It’s very horror, i hope the firefigter can overcome this problem

Just read an interesting story here. It seems like microsoft is very angry toward the creator of this worm.

The spreading Conflicker/Downadup worm is now viewed as such a significant threat that it’s inspired the formation of a posse to stop it, with Microsoft leading the charge by offering a $250,000 reward to bring the Conflicker malware bad guys to justice.

It’s also said that

The money will be paid for “information that results in the arrest and conviction of those responsible for illegally launching the Conflicker malicious code on the Internet,” Microsoft said today in a statement, adding it is fostering a partnership with Internet registries and DNS providers such as ICANN, ORG, and NeuStar as well as security vendors Symantec and Arbor Networks, among others, to stop the Conflicker worm once and for all.

Wow, i can’t wait to find the programmer who creates Conflicker got cought. Great news microsoft!
