Described as a 22-year-old "wild child", the new girlfriend of Tiger Woods has been spending time on his yacht with him. As the Masters is only two weeks away, it's good to know that Tiger's putter may be back to its usual calmness, and that his smooth stroke should be back in driving form!

Is Ghana prepared for a Tsunami? Early Warning System may save lives

Considering that many are predicting more extreme weather and the possibility of higher sea levels, is Ghana investing the capital and human resources to deal with potential crises? Are there any early warning systems in place to warn people to move inland and seek higher ground? Sometimes there can be an hour or more before a tsunami hits, so a warning system can save many lives.

Also, for tsunamis and even severe hurricanes, there should be procedures in place to rapidly shut down and fortify oil production platforms and wells, and these should be tested in simulation drills.

If any readers know of coastal emergency plans in Ghana that are relevant to this post, please provide them in the Comments section below. Suggestions for ways to protect people and communities from extreme weather events are also welcome!

Ghana refugees wait inside Tunisia-Libya border

At Ras Jdir on the Tunisia border, thousands of Bangladheshi migrant workers, desperate to leave Libya, pressed up against the gates of the frontier crossing, angry at their government for sending no help.

Groups of West African migrant workers also in the crowd chanted for help and held up the flags of Ghana and Nigeria.

About 70,000 people have passed through the Ras Jdir border post in the past two weeks, and many more of the hundreds of thousands of foreign workers in Libya are expected to follow.

Back in Accra, the second batch of Ghanaians stranded in Libya have arrived in Ghana with another planeload expected tomorrow. The 95 returnees arrived at the Kotoka International Airport on Tuesday evening. This brings to 150 the total number of Ghanaians that have been evacuated from Libya.

The repatriation became necessary due to increasing anti-government protests that have rocked the Maghrebian country in recent times. An estimated four thousand Ghanaians in the North African country have been registered out of the estimated 10,000 Ghanaians expected to be airlifted home. There has been enormous pressure from Ghanaians both home and abroad for Government to evacuate her citizenry following the political unrest in Libya.

Reports say over 2,000 people have been killed in the democratic uprising, a figure that has been disputed by the Libyan authorities.
