...warning about the risk of a local tsunami, according to Fauzi, the department's chief. Fauzi told Time his agency subsequently relayed text messages warning of the quake to about 400 Indonesian officials in disaster management, but there was little they could do: there were no alarm bells to ring on the beach, no emergency broadcasts to transmit over the radio or TV, no way to warn the people on the coast. The Ministry of Research and Technology, which heads the development of Indonesia's tsunami-warning system, came under criticism for failing to raise a clear alert, but officials...

Each novel had a different conspiracy for Hammer to expose: drugs in I, the Jury, the call-girl racket in My Gun Is Quick, a blackmail ring in Vengeance Is Mine!, illegal gambling in The Big Kill, the Mafia in Kiss Me.

"We haven't heard very much about the way these views can be rendered into a very satisfying harmony. And I do hope...
...cars in 2009, and until then we don't see any competition. None of the big manufacturers has plans for this segment," boasts Gerhard Heilmaier, Loremo ceo. How is the Loremo different? Unlike a traditional car frame, which is built to divert energy in a crash in a ring around the passengers, the Loremo's frame consists of three steel girders running from front to back that transport the energy of a crash underneath the passengers. That innovation means Loremo's frame weighs only about 100 kg, compared to 300 kg for the frame of a similar-size conventional...
