Turkmenistan's Flaming Sinkhole To Hell June 03, 2010 Fascination with the sinkhole led me to a cool website called Crookedbrains and a fascinating post from March 14, 2009, titled "12 Amazing Holes In The Earth" (how can you not read that?) -- the first one of which is in the village of Darvaza (or Derweze) in the Karakum desert of Turkmenistan. It's a giant crater formed after the collapse of an underground cavern in 1971. Apparently, geologists discovered that the cavern contained huge deposits of natural gas, and the thing was set alight to prevent the toxic discharge of the gas. To the surprise of everyone, it's been burning ever since. www.rferl.org/content/A_Hole_Nother_Thing__Turkmenistans_Gates_Of_Hell/2060664.htmlFlaming Crater, Darvaza Turkmenistan 1/6 - Phillips Connor www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEjoga1yrn0johnhbradley.com/pictures2.asp?var=070707darvaza

Everett neighborhood is sinking Posted on March 17, 2011 at 2:54 PM Updated today at 10:59 AM EVERETT, Wash. -- People living in the Valley View neighborhood of southeast Everett are waiting and watching. A two story house on their block is tilted at a 20 degree angle and could collapse at any moment. A crack in the earth that first appeared six weeks ago is now threatening about four homes. The City of Everett has "red tagged" the home on Burl which is collapsing. That means no one is allowed near the property. www.king5.com/home/Everett-Neighborhood-is-Sinking-118195279.html

Why China’s Largest Cities are Sinking Aug 12, 2011 The extraction of groundwater supplies has created major problems in most of China’s largest cities. The scale of extraction has been such that for coastal cities, such as Tianjin, Hebei and Shandong, and Shanghai, there has been major saline intrusion. This is a serious issue which in some countries has led to contamination of fresh groundwater and even an inability to water crops. But there is an even more fundamental problem caused, to the very stability of the ground on which cities stand. Significant subsidence, of over 2m, has been found in at least 50 cities. andrewlainton.wordpress.com/2011/08/12/why-chinas-largest-cities-are-sinking/

Sinkhole probe goes hi-tech Published: 22/03/2012 at 10:27 AM City engineers have been attracting considerable attention in the Rama IV area as they use their high-tech gadgets to try to find what caused Sunday's large sinkhole. Above ground they were seen yesterday wheeling a bulky ground penetrating radar (GPR) system down the middle of the road between Lumpini Tower and the Thai-Belgium Bridge. www.bangkokpost.com/learning/easier-stuff/285493/sinkhole-probe-goes-hi-tech
