Atlas shrugged

For all that I feel that news these days is 90% disasters/ mishaps (natural or man-made) this website was a reminder of the other calamities that miss international headlines. Wonder what is plaguing the world we live in? Bombs, terrorism attacks and more bad news are vividly displayed here:

p.s: It is also interesting to note the different types and intensity of conflicts in different regions.

I think its going to get a little bit confusing here. Not used to finding other people called Suramya.
