Up to 1,000 people may have been trapped by a landslide in the southwestern Mexico state of Oaxaca, Gov. Ulises Ruiz said Tuesday morning.
A hill about 650 feet wide (200 meters) collapsed early Tuesday, sending tons of mud atop up to 300 houses, Ruiz told CNN affiliate Televisa.
Rescue officials, heavy machinery as well as police and military authorities were on their way to the scene, Ruiz said.
"We expect to get there in time to rescue these people," he said.

Everyone needs, and deserves our prayers. God does not punish us. He is a God of love.

I missed parrot's comment. sniff. don't censor parrot.
I am also interested in the question Pugs raised about getting products to review. I recently looked at Buzz for Stuff and it seems that they want the buzz before they send you any stuff, and the stuff may not even be what they want you to buzz about. It doesn’t look like what I thought it would.

Then go take care of her and quit commenting on news that you don't care about.
Actually, no, that's about 1/1000 as important.
This is the most insanely self-centered comment I've ever read.
If you cant show any compassion, why should you expect any? Should we give a sh!t that your wife is sick and you have no health insurance? To be honest with you, I did, without even knowing you or your situation or that you even have a situation, care about you and yours simply because you are a fellow human being. Until people like you get out of your me, me, me mindset, the world will continue to hate each other. I'll pray for you make room in your heart for others, and I'll pray for your wife to get better, just because thats what humans do for each other. God be with you and yours.
Go get a job then instead of sitting at ur computer showing the world what a racist moron u r
