    Chaotic scene as civilians work to put out another garment-factory fire in Bangladesh

    Reuters

    A worker calls for help as he is trapped in a garment factory after a fire broke out in Dhaka, Bangladesh, Nov. 26. The trapped worker was eventually rescued.

    Just two days after a garment-factory fire that killed at least 112 people, another fire broke out at a garment factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh on Monday. This time, there were no reports that anyone had died in the blaze, but the chaos at the scene, where workers and civilians struggled to put the fire out themselves, highlighted unsafe conditions in an industry rushing to produce for major retailers around the world. Read story

    Maryam Aslam weeps while enquiring about her missing brother who worked in a garment factory, in Karachi. Pakistani officials say the death toll from devastating factory fires that broke out in two major cities has killed hundreds.

    Two separate blazes in Pakistan broke out Tuesday night, one at a garment factory in the southern port city of Karachi and another at a shoe manufacturer in the eastern city of Lahore. 

    Pakistan registered murder charges against factory bosses and government officials over the deaths of the more than 289 people in the country's worst industrial disaster, police said.

    75 years on, Hindenburg airship disaster still shocks

    NY Daily News Archive via Getty Images

    The zeppelin Hindenburg flies over Manhattan, April 1, 1936, a year before its fiery demise.

    NY Daily News Archive via Getty Images

    The Hindenburg dirigible attempting to land at Lakehurst, N.J. May 9, 1936, a year before the disaster.

    On May 6, 1937, the Hindenburg airship burst into flames while attempting to land in Lakehurst, N.J. Of the 97 people on board, 35 were killed, and one person on the ground died as well. According to the AP:

    Slideshow: The Hindenburg disaster

    A look back at the historic airship and its demise.

    Launch slideshow

    The huge airship — more than three times longer than a Boeing 747 — was engulfed in flames and sank to the ground in less than a minute. Photographers and newsreel crews on hand for the landing captured the scene, and a shocked radio station broadcaster recorded the often replayed phrase “Oh, the humanity and all the passengers!”

    The 804-foot-long Hindenburg was cutting-edge technology, with its fabric-covered, metal frame held aloft by more than 7 million cubic feet of lighter-than-air hydrogen. Flammable hydrogen had to be used because of a U.S. embargo on nonflammable helium.

    It was “the Concorde of its day back in 1936 and ’37,” said Carl Jablonski, president of the Navy Lakehurst Historical Society. But after the fire, he said, it would be called the “Titanic of the sky.”

    Continue reading.

     

    According to Asbury Park Press:

    “The Hindenburg cut the time in half of the fastest ocean liner,” said Robert Buchanan of Waretown, the last known surviving member of the civilian landing crew that handled mooring lines for the airship.

    “I find it hard to explain how horrible it was,” Buchanan told the audience. “The flames were entirely surrounding — you couldn’t see the sky, and you knew the ship was falling on you.”

    A Pakistani airliner crashed just short of landing in Islamabad on Friday, killing all 127 people aboard, the country's Civil Aviation Authority told NBC on Friday.

    The flight data recorder has been located, NBC’s Fakhar Rehman reported from Islamabad, and the so-called "black box" was expected to reveal why the plane went down. But the apparent cause was that pilots were flying low under heavy clouds and hit high-tension wires as they approached Benazir Bhutto International Airport, he said.

    Medical personnel attend to a patients that were evacuated from a hospital damaged by the earthquake in Ometepec, Guerrero on March 21.

    A powerful and prolonged earthquake rocked Mexico on Tuesday, toppling houses near the epicenter in the south, cracking building facades in Mexico City and briefly terrifying a population well schooled in natural disasters.

    The brunt of the shaking apparently was taken by the southern states of Guerrero and Oaxaca, near whose shared border the epicenter of the quake was pinpointed 12 miles below the surface.

    By Natalia Jimenez, NBC News

    A huge fire yesterday at a refugee camp along the border of Myanmar and Thailand destroyed about 5,000 homes. We published the photos of the flames engulfing the bamboo shacks yesterday in PhotoBlog. Due to the flammable nature of the bamboo, the fire quickly spread. The camp is home to about 17,000 Myanmar refugees fleeing fighting between the army and ethnic minorities.

    According to AP:

    No casualties were reported from the fire that destroyed about a fifth of the dwellings at the Umpiem Mai camp in Tak province, Thai district official Pot Ruworanan said.

    The Thailand Burma Border Consortium, which coordinates aid for the refugrees, said on its website that an undetermined number of people suffered burns and three mosques and two nursery schools were destroyed.

    Maintenance workers inspect the damage to one of the spires on Benedictine Hall at St. Gregory's University in Shawnee, Okla. on Nov. 6, 2011. Two earthquakes in the area in less than 24 hours caused one of the towers to topple, and damaged the remaining three.

    AP reports

    SPARKS, Okla. — Oklahoma residents more accustomed to tornadoes than earthquakes have been shaken by weekend temblors that cracked buildings, buckled a highway and rattled nerves. One quake late Saturday was the state's strongest ever and jolted a college football stadium 50 miles away.

    The magnitude 5.6 earthquake was Oklahoma's strongest on record, said Jessica Turner, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey. Centered near Sparks, 44 miles northeast of Oklahoma City, it could be felt throughout the state and in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, northern Texas and some parts of Illinois and Wisconsin. It followed a magnitude 4.7 quake early Saturday that was felt from Texas to Missouri. Read more ...

    Chad Devereaux clears up bricks on Sunday that fell from three sides of his in-laws' home in Sparks, Okla. The weekend earthquakes were among the strongest yet in a state that has seen a dramatic, unexplained increase in seismic activity.

    Local residents, police officers and rescue workers evacuate a victim after a landslide in Manizales, Colombia on Nov. 5, 2011.

    Colombia continues to struggle under one of the worst rainy seasons on record. The latest mudslide killed four and left 28 people missing in Manizales. Heavy rains and mudslides have caused the evacuation of almost 250,000 people throughout the country.

    Rescue workers search for victims in Manizales on Saturday. The Red Cross says at least 28 people were missing after a landslide was caused by heavy rains.
