Tsunami Warning Issued for Western Coast of U.S. (Update1)
June 14 (Bloomberg) -- A tsunami warning was issued for the western coasts of the U.S. and parts of Mexico and Canada after a 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of California, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said in an e-mail alert. A second earthquake struck 76 miles west-northwest of Sacramento, the state's capital.
A tsunami warning was in effect for the coastal areas of the California-Mexico border to the northern tip of Vancouver, British Columbia, the West Coast Tsunami Warning Center said. A warning indicates that coastal locations in the warned area should be prepared for flooding, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The first earthquake, measuring a 7.4 on the Richter scale, struck at 6:50 p.m. San Francisco time, centering 90 miles northwest of Eureka, California. A second earthquake measuring a 5.1 struck at 7:57 p.m. 92 miles northeast of San Francisco.
A tsunami watch was issued for the coastal areas of Vancouver to Sitka, a town of southeast Alaska. A tsunami watch means a tsunami has not been confirmed, though a recent earthquake may have generated large waves that could affect the area.

Republican Values:
1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.
4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

When would this tsunami be expected to hit?

So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.

Minutes from now, I would imagine. This is breaking news.

There were tornadoes in Ontario tonight.
http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2005/06/14/1088593-cp.html
This happened when I was a kid. I remember standing on the balcony of our apartment and watching it move through Barrie.
"Thunderstorm and tornado warnings were updated throughout the evening across the region north of the Toronto area known as Tornado Alley that was devastated 20 years ago when storms spawned deadly tornadoes in and around Barrie. "

Sometimes we let the preoccupations of this cruel world get the best of us and we lose track of the things that really matter.
If you don't risk anything, you risk even more.

I was looking at the pacific ocean when the alert hit. I headed east right away. Everyone was running to their car with their guitars and cat's.

That's fucking scary. I live on Vancouver Island, and my town apparently sits above hundreds of abandoned mines... that's not a very comforting fact.
