98 tornadoes hit America in just 24 hours



FIVE people have been left dead after more than 100 tornadoes tore through the Midwest and Plains states of America.

Hardest hit was the north west Oklhoma town of Woodward where downed power lines had disabled the storm warning system.

There were at least 120 reports of tornadoes touching down over the weekend, mainly in Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa.

Woodward Mayor Roscoe Hill said sirens were apparently not working when the tornado hit. He said the sirens had been sounding loudly from storms yesterday afternoon.

In other parts of the country state officials in Iowa said a hospital in Creston had been damaged in high winds, but no injuries had been reported.

America apologises for SRK detention



America's prestigious Yale University, which had invited Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan, on Saturday said that his detention was "unfortunate" but things were sorted out in the end.

As SRK himself would tell you, what is most important in his movies is how they end rather than how they begin.

And yesterday, things began in an unfortunate manner, but ended in a way that left everyone happy," Yale's Assistant Secretary of international affairs George Joseph said in an emailed statement Khan was detained for over two hours at the White Plains airport in New York by immigration authorities on Friday.

Tremors rattle Mexico and America





A strong earthquake struck a sparsely populated area in the mountains of western Mexico on Wednesday, and caused tall buildings to sway more than 200 miles away in Mexico City.

People evacuated some buildings in the capital, but the city government said helicopter flights detected no signs of damage. Authorities in Michoacán state, where the tremor was centered, also had no immediate reports of damage.



The U.S. Geological Survey initially reported a preliminary reading of 7.0 magnitudes for the quake, but later downgraded it to 6.5.

A quake of that magnitude is capable of producing severe damage in an urban area, but this one occurred about 41 miles below the surface and a tremor's power to cause damage is often dissipated when it is so deep.
