Indonesia Tsunami and Volcanic Eruptions

(The Wall Street Journal – Oct 29, 2010) JAKARTA—The combined death toll from a tsunami and volcanic eruptions in Indonesia climbed to 449, as aid workers shifted their focus to prevent outbreaks of disease among survivors of the twin disasters earlier this week.
