Continua el martirio in Australia
Come gavevo scritto; gavevo menzionado el grave pericolo che se trovava una mia nipote che la vivi a Port Albert a Sud-Est del Victoria. El fogo xe rivado fin a 5 Km dal`abitato. Per fortuna e per grazia de Dio el vento ga girado dal Sud verso el Nord. In tal modo i xe restai fora pericolo. Pero' tutta la gente del logo i ga passa la notte vizin la spiaggia.
A sua anche mia fia, mamma de questa nipote la vivi nel Nord a Myrtleford, piccola cittadina dove el 70% xe italiani, e vivi diversi triestini.
Xe una zona a a valle, ma xe circonda de montagne. Anche ella la se trova sotto avviso de lassar la zona residenziale.

Vic bushfires death toll 'could top 200'16:45 AEST Mon Feb 9 200915 minutes agoVIEWS: 0| FLOCKS: 0| 0 comments so far
Victoria's bushfires death toll is likely to climb as firefighters continue to battle 31 blazes.
Feb 09, 2009
The death toll from Victoria's bushfires could top 200 as authorities sift through the piles of ash that were once entire communities.
The official toll rose to 130 on Monday.
The bushfires have now claimed 33 people in the small hamlet of Kinglake and nine in Kinglake West.
Ten people have now been confirmed dead at nearby Marysville.
New deaths have been reported at Narbethong where eight people died and Yarra Glen which has one fatality.
The toll for St Andrews has been revised down from 10 to six.
A total of 19 people have been killed in Gippsland, with nine fatalities in the town of Callignee and one in Upper Callignee.
Police disaster identification teams have worked throughout the night to process of identifying and remove the remains.
Interstate police have also arrived to assist in removing remains.
Senior fire and parks officials have told staff they fear there may be more than 200 deaths when the heartbreaking task of cleaning up is complete.
The fires are already Australia's worst natural disaster by far: worse than Ash Wednesday, Black Friday, Cyclone Tracy and even the Bali bombings.
Country Fire Authority (CFA) volunteers are struggling to cope emotionally.
There are so many bodies. Many don't even look like bodies and will require the attentions of specialised police Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) teams.
DVI coordinator Inspector Greg Hough said the identification process would take a long time as fatalities had occurred across the state.
He called on families to do what they could to help identify loved ones but conceded that in many cases "it will be done forensically".
More than 750 houses have been destroyed and 330,000 hectares have been burnt.
There are 31 fires still raging throughout Victoria after record heat and wild winds set the state ablaze on Saturday.
The biggest current threat is in Beechworth, in the state's north, where a blaze is burning out of control, while the Churchill fires in Gippsland are also threatening homes.
The Beechworth blaze has burnt 30,000 hectares and continues to threaten the communities of Stanley, Bruarong, Dederang, Gundowring, Gundowring Upper, Kancoona, Kancoona South, Coral Bank, Glenn Creek and Running Creek.
The fire has skirted Beechworth and is heading towards Yackandandah.
"There are seven or eight small settlements in the path of this fire and those residents have been urged to get their fire plans under way," Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) spokesman Geoff Russell said.
All fire-devastated areas will be treated as crime scenes to determine if arson was involved, Victorian Police Commissioner Christine Nixon said.
An emotional Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said deliberately lit fires amounted to "mass murder".
"What do you say about anyone like that? There are no words to describe it other than mass murder.
"This is of a level of horror that few of us anticipated."
A doctor treating burns victims at The Alfred hospital in Melbourne said the scale of the disaster was worse than the Bali bombings, which killed 202 people including 88 Australians.
Twenty serious burns patients have been admitted to The Alfred in 24 hours, all with burns to more than 30 per cent of their bodies.
"This is by far the worst disaster I've ever been involved with," Dr De Villiers Smit told reporters.
Emergency relief operations are underway throughout the state including a massive exercise at Whittlesea, which is serving survivors from Kinglake and its surrounds.
As refugees flooded down the mountain from Kinglake and surrounding townships into Whittlesea, relief workers headed the other way, taking desperately needed food, water and fuel supplies to those who have remained behind.
"That's the second phase of the operation. First it's been making the area safe for firefighters to work in, but also getting supplies and resources to people on the mountain who decided to stay and protect their properties," CFA spokesman Dave Wolf told AAP.
The Kinglake fire has cut a vast swathe across the central highlands from Wandong, south to Kinglake and nearby St Andrews, and northeast towards the upper Goulburn Valley.
The township of Marysville has been almost entirely destroyed.
One fire official said the blaze had a perimeter extending "hundreds of kilometres" and may take weeks to contain.
The Churchill fires have so far burnt an estimated 32,000 hectares, a CFA spokeswoman said.
Residents of the Glenhope area in central Victoria have also been warned a section of the Redesdale fire has flared up and could affect their town.
The death toll surpasses that from the 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires, in which 75 people died in Victoria and South Australia, and the Black Friday bushfires of 1939, which killed 71.
Britain's Queen Elizabeth II has expressed shock at the loss of life and devastation.
"I was shocked and saddened to learn of the terrible toll being exacted by the fires this weekend," Her Majesty said in a statement.
"I send my heartfelt condolences to the families of all those who have died and my deep sympathy to the many that have lost their homes in this disaster."
Former Nine Network Melbourne newsreader Brian Naylor, 78, and his wife Moiree were among the people who died at tiny Kinglake West as the flames swept in on Saturday.
Ninety-two firefighters from Tasmania will arrive to help the firefighting effort on Monday, in addition to the 150 NSW firefighters currently helping fight the Beechworth fires

Ogi i ga dito per radio che un omo politico australian ga parlà de "omicidio di massa", perchè bona parte dei incendi xe dolosi.
I ga ciapà due piromani, un omo sui quaranta anni e un muleto de 15. I ris'cia una condanna a 25 anni de preson. Ghe auguro che la "giustizia delle carceri" no li fazi tornar fora vivi.

Colpabilita'
Certamente la colpabilita' de alcuni incendi iera dolosi, infatti la polizia ga fatto due arresti. Pero' resta una question: come mai le autorita' comunali delle varie localita', ga da el permesso de costruir delle case nelle zone circondade de alberi, savendo el grave pericolo che la gente andava incontro? Costruir delle case nei boschi xe come darghe el permesso de costruir dove xe delle polveriere. I saveva che i podeva andai incontro a delle vere sciagure. Chi che compra un toco de terra per costruirse una casa, non el sa el pericolo, causa l`inesperienza. Ma non xe amissibile questo fatto dalle autorita' comunali.Percio' el governo statale dovara' far delle ricerche e portar in causa i responsabili.Almeno spero.
Purtropo la gente xe incosciente. Anche se i sa che xe pericolo i costruisi lo stesso. Basta veder in Sicilia tute le casete costruide sull'Etna, che vien coverte de lava ogni tanti anni. E in America, me par in California, xe un posto dove i costruissi tute le case dei VIP, soto un canalon pien de alberi, che ciapa fogo ogni pochi anni. El vento caldo ciapa velocità zo per el canalon e brusa tuto.

Sono le stessissime spiegazioni che ho avuto da un guardaboschi del sud argentino dove abbondano estese foreste!pacifico ha scritto: Pero' resta una question: come mai le autorita' comunali delle varie localita', ga da el permesso de costruir delle case nelle zone circondade de alberi, savendo el grave pericolo che la gente andava incontro?

Nei casi come questi è praticamente impossibile combattere tanti fronti di fuoco, nonostante un Paese avanzato disponga di dispositivi antiincendio moderni e sofisticati.
Con tutto il dispiacede nell`animo, amici australiani vogliamo desiderarvi sollievo!

Inondazioni nel Nord dell`Australia
Si infatti diverse cittadine e paesi i se trova sotto acqua, dovudo a grandi piove e straripamenti dei fiumi. I ga annunzia' che tre persone le xe sparide. I pensa che le xe stade divorade dai cocodrili. Nel 1956 la moglie de un cacciator, la ga sparado a uno mazadolo.Questo nel fiume Norman vizin el golfo de Carpentaria. El misurava 29 piedi. I denti iera grossi come bottiglie de latte, el gaveva 4 metri de diametro.serlilian ha scritto:Ma go sentì che xe grossi problemi anche nell'Australia del Nord, a causa dele alluvioni provocade dele piove monsoni eccezionali!
Sulla piazza del comun de Normantown (popolazion 250) i ga messo una replica de sto cocodril. Adesso no xe piu' permesso de cacciarli. I xe lori che i ghe da la caccia all`omo.

Grazie per le bele parole Arnie, e si, certamente ghe xe stado dei ati de eroismo, oviamente specialmente da parte dei pompieri, la magioranza volontari, che riscia la propria vita senza motivi de lucro.Arnie Coburg ha scritto:Dear Aussies:

El mal resta che purtropo sti foghi continua a brusar, no solo, ma sti mone che continua a impizar foghi dolosi. Due xe stade ciapade, ma altri xe ancora ancora a piede libero.
E stamatina i morti xe rivadi a 181...'desso i temi che'l numero dei decesi pol rivar a superar i 300....
In tuta sta disgrazia, el publico ga dona`, fin deso, oltre 30 milioni de dolari per aiutar le vitime de sta tragedia a almeno ricominciar a farse una vita.
Come che Serlilian ga dito, el primo ministro, Kevin rudd, ga ciama` i colpevoli de sti foghi dolosi, assassini in massa, e nissuna persona decente pol darghe torto...
Quel che i pompieri ga suggeri`, xe che sta gente dovessi esser forzai a tirar fora dai auti dove che i xe morti, i corpi dele persone decese a causa del fogo!
E sto fine stimana i prevedi che le temperature tornera` a alzarse.
El stato del Victoria continua a brusar, mentre el Queensland setentrional, specialmente nela zona de Ingham, xe soto acqua: Australia, paese dai enormi contrasti.

Pochi giorni fa gavevimo un ciclon sula costa del Queensland ,per fortuna el se ga intensifica' al largo dela costa, ma questa nave de carigo con tanti contenitori a bordo pieni de prodotti chimici se ga trova' vicin el centro del ciclon e la ga perso tanti de questi contenitori in mar i quali ga inquina' la costa causando tanto dano, al momento i sta' ciamando la Marina Militar per individuar sti contenitori sommersi cercando de limitar
