As most of you know, Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines on November 7th, causing an unimaginable amount of damage. Haiyan is the strongest recorded tropical cyclone in history to make landfall, and has caused at least 10,000 deaths, probably a lot more. The Philippines are truly suffering right now, in what is probably the greatest natural disaster ever to hit the country. And this is a place that regularly gets more than it's share of earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, erupting volcanoes and typhoons. For those interested in helping out, here's a link to a NY Times article on easy ways to help the disaster victims. I am sure that every cent or minute of time will be much appreciated.
