Myanmar cyclone toll estimates soar.



The death toll from a killer cyclone in Myanmar could be "in the region of 100,000 or even more," the chief of the USA Humanitarian Affairs said " his organization already has confirmed 38,491 deaths -- much more than the 22,000 figure from Myanmar's government. "






The weather report say there won't be second cyclone.




"The government had authorized five more U.S. flights to land in Myanmar with supplies. The flights will deliver 46 pallets loaded with bottled water, plastic sheeting and hygiene kits as well as crackers and powdered milk" said a U.S. Marine spokesman.
