THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — An earthquake beneath the sea shook northern Greece and western Turkey Saturday, with more than two dozen injuries reported on a Turkish island.
In Istanbul and in other parts of Turkey residents fled homes in panic after the quake struck at midday.
An earthquake measuring M6.6 on the Richter scale hit Nicaragua on April 11, 2014 affecting a total of 2 403 homes of which 178 collapsed, were totally destroyed or rendered uninhabitable. The remaining 2 225 homes suffered partial damage.
A series of volcanic ash plumes originating from Indonesian Batu Tara volcano are being detected on satellite imagery. It seems that the volcano has entered a stronger phase of eruptions during the past few days.
Geologists say they've discovered rocks long thought vanished, the youngest remains of the oldest and biggest impact crater on Earth. In the abraded heart of South Africa's Vredefort impact craterlurk striking green-black rocks, some of the only remnants of a magma sea that once filled the gaping crater, according to a study to be published this May in the journal Geology. Until now, geologists thought nearly all of these "impact melt" rocks were lost to time. Some 6 miles (10 kilometers) of Vredefort crater has worn away since it was whacked open 2.02 billion years ago. "It's like discovering a new rock type in the Grand Canyon," said study co-author Desmond Moser, a geochronologist at Western University in Ontario, Canada.
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and Spitzer Space Telescope have discovered what appears to be the coldest "brown dwarf" known -- a dim, star-like body that surprisingly is as frosty as Earth's North Pole.
Strong earthquake on December 20, 2010 in Iran was predicted three days before the shock
This has been communicated by the press service of the Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes (GNFE) headquartered in London, UK. Professor Elchin Khalilov, GNFE President, has commented on the forecast of the strong earthquake in Iran.
Dear Professor Khalilov, could you please comment on the forecast of the strong earthquake which occurred December 20 in southern Iran?
As you know, a strong magnitude 6.3 earthquake occurred in southern Iran on December 20, 2010. The epicenter was located 214 km south-east of the city of Zahedan. The first and strongest shock hit the Kerman province. As many as three remote mountain villages in the country's southeast were turned into ruins. About ten people have been reported killed and hundreds more injured.
On December 17, 2010, the Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes (GNFE) placed on its website a forecast for the Iran earthquake in the forecast map. The forecast for a strong earthquake in Iran with magnitude over 5 and 90% probability was given for the period between 17 and 27 December 2010. Short-term forecasts are made for the entire territory of the Eastern Hemisphere; therefore, the forecast covered the bulk of the Iranian territory. This is due to the fact that today the Global Network has only four ATROPATENA earthquake forecast stations – in Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Indonesia and Turkey. To accurately identify the location of an earthquake epicenter in Iran, at least four stations across the country are needed.
Meanwhile, the forecast for the Iranian territory was not the only one to confirm. Within the same period of time, GNFE provided forecasts for the territory of Indonesia and Central Asia which proved to be completely accurate. By now, another short-term strong earthquake forecast we made for the Japan region has been confirmed.
As is known, a strong magnitude 7,4 earthquake occurred on 21 December 2010 at 17:19 GMT off the coast of Japan, in the Bonin Islands area. A possible tsunami alert has been issued in Japan.
Here is given a section of GNFE forecast map where green circles designate strong earthquakes with magnitude over 5 the forecasts for which have been confirmed (within a week following the official announcement).
Could you tell us how exactly earthquakes are forecast?
Special ATROPATENA earthquake forecast stations whose physical principle I patented with PCT, Geneva in 2005 have been set up in Baku (Azerbaijan), Islamabad (Pakistan), Yogyakarta (Indonesia) and Istanbul (Turkey).
These stations record three-dimensional gravitational field anomalies occurring usually 3-6 days before a strong earthquake at a great distance (up to ten thousand kilometers) from the epicenter of the expected earthquake. These anomalies are caused by tectonic waves, or stress waves generated by the focuses of future earthquakes prior to the shock. Our stations register those waves and track their movement. The stations' records are used for identifying the direction towards the focus of a future earthquake, and the intersection point of the straight guide lines indicates the earthquake's epicenter. There are parameters that allow us to estimate the magnitude of a future earthquake and the number of expected shocks. For example, anomalies during largest earthquakes can be detected much earlier and observed for a long time, as it was during a series of strong earthquakes in Italy from April 06 to April 09, 2009. The anomaly before the Italian earthquakes lasted for more than 20 days prior to the shocks and two days after it had disappeared, the first of four catastrophic earthquakes occurred on 6 April 2009 claiming hundreds of lives. That anomaly was registered by the Network's both stations available at the time, located in Baku and Islamabad.
The Iran earthquake was preceded by a gravity anomaly which lasted for 13 days before the shock. All four ATROPATENA stations recorded this pre-earthquake anomaly. As an example, I would like to demonstrate the anomaly before the Iran earthquake, which was registered by the Baku ATROPATENA-AZ station, together with a standard forecast map showing the Iranian strong earthquake forecast.
All ATROPATENA stations continuously transmit all recorded data to the central database located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and accessible to research groups from GNFE member countries.
The ATROPATENA station set includes standard seismic stations that record all seismic events at the station's location to eliminate the influence of seismic vibrations on the readings of gravitational laser sensors. The ATROPATENA station's entire sensing system operates inside insulated tanks with permanently sustained deep vacuum. The data is collected using laser-optical systems. The personnel do not enter the rooms where the stations are installed since the stations are fully automated and controlled from a single center, and all data are received from the central database.
Who was informed of the GNFE forecast for Iran?
According to GNFE Charter, information related to short-term earthquake forecasts is strictly confidential; they are distributed among the countries-members of the Global Network only. Among those informed of the Iranian and other forecasts were the Pakistan Center for Earthquake Studies, the earthquake forecast research group at the Government of the Indonesian Province of Yogyakarta, GNFE Scientific Center for Earthquake Prediction in Istanbul, as well as GNFE secretariat in London and GNFE European Representative in Germany.
Given that the problem of earthquake forecasting affects the strategic interests of any country involved in a forecast, GNFE has no legal right to provide forecasts for countries which are not members of the Global Network and have not signed with it an international agreement about clear distribution of rights and duties between the parties. Nor are we legally entitled to disclose forecast-related information to third parties and the mass media. After an earthquake has occurred, the information may be made public by GNFE administration's decision.
Mr. Khalilov, why are the restrictions on releasing forecast-related information so tough? Isn't it humane to inform everyone of the expected earthquake so that people could be saved?
Earthquake prediction is a very serious business which requires professionalism and strict regulation of how the operational forecasts are delivered. Otherwise, uncontrolled information may lead to panic and chaos causing irreparable damage to the country and people. There have been numerous instances when some scientists or institutions would come up with a short-term forecast of a strong earthquake, which brought about mass panic in those cities virtually paralyzing the activity of government agencies: law enforcers, emergency medical services, firefighters, rescue workers who should be the first to react in case of an earthquake.
Imagine that the population of a city with one million residents (i.e. not a very large one) is informed via the media that a strong earthquake is expected for a certain time. What will happen? Almost everyone will try to evacuate for that period their families, friends and relatives as far away from the area of the expected earthquake as possible. Do not forget that it concerns everybody including doctors, police officers, rescue workers, military personnel, government employees, i.e. those who must be at their post on full alert at the moment. General chaos, traffic jams, attempts to save the most valuable items from apartments, followed by looting and inability to control the situation if a strong earthquake does occur. What could be worse? And when it comes to larger cities, megalopolises with a population of more than 10 million people such as Istanbul, Mexico City, San Francisco, Tokyo, what can one expect?
That is why each Global Network member country appoints its government's representative to deliver the forecasts first-hand, and assigns a research structure to be directly involved in studying and forecasting earthquakes within GNFE system.
What happens after a forecast is officially given to a GNFE member country?
Following that, the only functions of GNFE are to further monitor the situation and provide relevant information on further developments. Some corrections can be made to forecasts delivered, e.g. about higher or lower number of expected shocks, their intensity and more precise location of the epicenter.
As to making concrete decisions about evacuation or other measures, it is the exclusive prerogative of the country's government and GNFE is not allowed to interfere in this process. However, following the government's request, GNFE can provide its recommendations for optimal decision making. Besides, GNFE has drawn up standard instructions on how government agencies should possibly respond to receipt of strong earthquake forecasts depending on the forecast's category (reliability degree).
Usually, when discussing the problem of earthquake prediction, it is always said that there is only one officially confirmed forecast for China in 1975, which helped save the residents of a small town with a population of slightly over 100 thousand people. Is that really so?
The phrase itself is classical and historic. In the late 70's, this fact was mentioned in many seismology textbooks and various other publications. Even in my monograph co-authored by Academician Sh. Mehdiyev and published in 1988, this phrase was cited. But it has been more than 35 years since the Chinese forecast and during all that time, a lot of officially confirmed short-term forecasts have been made by Japanese, Russian, Chinese, Italian and other world scientists including GNFE. They just have not enjoyed the same wide publicity since the Chinese forecast was the first confirmed earthquake prediction in the history of science, but far from being the last.
From August 1, 2009 when GNFE using three ATROPATENA stations in Baku, Islamabad and Yogyakarta started its full-scale operation to December 21, 2010, we have officially issued 133 earthquake forecasts, 92% of which have been confirmed. Below are given some diagrams showing the general statistics of GNFE forecasts and forecast dynamics since they started to be officially delivered.
Is GNFE planning to set up new stations in other countries?
It certainly is. For example, Ukraine represented by the Institute of Geophysics of the National Academy of Sciences has been recently included in the Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes. In the first half of 2011, the latest ATROPATENA CRYSTAL modification of the ATROPATENA earthquake forecast station will be set in operation in the Ukrainian Institute of Geophysics; this modification is now being successfully tested at GNFE Research and Production Center in Istanbul. A number of other countries wanting to join the Network have expressed their desire to have ATROPATENA stations installed in 2011 as well.
Can we consider the problem of earthquake prediction solved?
Of course not. The problem of short-term earthquake prediction is just beginning to find its solution and we still have much to do. In particular, we are developing a new software program that will automatically identify the coordinates of a future earthquake's epicenter and routinely produce raw forecasts to be further refined by scientists. We recently completed forecast management software which automates the process of making and analyzing forecasts by different national research groups involved in GNFE. Development of so huge an infrastructure as GNFE is impossible without using up-to-date software applications and information technologies.
Ideally, the problem of short-term earthquake prediction can be considered solved after the entire globe is covered with a dense network of ATROPATENA stations. Forecasting earthquakes will be as easy as identifying parameters of the earthquakes that have already occurred by now using a dense network of seismic stations.
We thank you for the comprehensive and interesting information and wish you further development of the Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes in the name of security and for saving lives of many people on our planet.

Not much to know about incentivized projects yet
That will happen in March 2010, the same time Capital Ale House and Wegmans will collect their first year's worth of incentives.
Kybecca and Capital Ale House both have collected the Economic Development Authority grants that were part of their incentive agreements.
The EDA wrote a $25,000 check to Capital Ale House as partial reimbursement for the facade work it did before opening, and $24,000.45 in checks for the heating and cooling awning Kybecca installed at its wine bar.
Some of those checks went directly to the contractors who performed the work.
These grants are made from the funds the EDA collects in fees it charges private businesses to access tax-free financing. They are not made with tax dollars.
Capital Ale House's agreement gives it a 10-year, $75,000 reduction of its business license taxes. The bar must generate at least $100,000 a year in sales and meals taxes to be eligible for the incentive.
Wegmans' agreement promised it a $1.7 million reduction of its business license taxes over 10 years. The grocery store must generate at least $300,000 a year in local taxes to qualify.
When March rolls around, these three businesses will have to report to the city that they've made the investments and maintained the employment levels that made them eligible for economic incentives in the first place.

The Game of Shorting China MediaExpress Has Been Exposed [View article]
What can happen is companies responding at the speed of the web. A successful bear raid can cause damage to a stocks value that lasts for a significant amount of time. This should be recognized by IR departments, with the defense of the stock taken as a core function.
IR departments should have a "bear raid" plan in place, in the same way every company has a plan for fires, power loss, natural disaster, etc. The attacks are based on false information or false interpretations of information. The company has 24/7 access to the real information. An information web response to an attack, specific and pointed, can be assembled in a matter of hours. Conference calls can be scheduled in minutes. Lack of understanding about a company's metrics, filings and structure can be addressed with investor education. Auditors, while needing time for the audit, can issue a press release saying that they are aware of allegations and are actively engaged in doing their job.Feb 14, 2011. 09:14 AM | 4 Likes |Link to Comment
U.S. Listed Chinese Stocks: Mistreated and Undervalued (Part 2) [View article]
a) It would be challenging to argue that the growth in our markets across the last 7 months can continue unabated for an extended period of time. b) While unfounded bear raids create extreme dips in pps that should be attractive to value investors, price volatility and the risk that raiders claims may be even 1% true (thus creating a significant longer term dip in pps) scares away the small investor and renders the companies "untouchable" for many institutional managers (either by charter or the plain realities of professional risk).
The net result is that when the bulk of investors find themselves struggling with the chop of a market that is peaking or approaching decline, nimble and unencumbered funds will have already staked their claims in what stands to be one of the few remaining areas of promising hyper growth.Feb 13, 2011. 01:09 PM | 4 Likes |Link to Comment

The Twelfth Insight
BY Nicola Conville Freelance Journalist
By James Redfield, Random House, $34.95.

Daughters pay tribute to man killed in road smash
Published at 16:47, Thursday, 17 January 2013
The devastated daughters of a pedestrian killed in a road collision have paid an emotional tribute to their devoted dad, saying he was "their world."
Related: Cumbria police appeal for help after man's death
James Henry Smith, of Hyde Street, Workington, was in collision with a car on the town's Oxford Street, on Tuesday evening.
The 54-year-old grandfather, who was known as Jim, died the following day in hospital from his serious head injuries.
His daughters, Sharon Smith, of Egremont and Alisha Smith, of Workington, have spoken about the heartbreak of losing their dad.
"He was our world," said the grieving daughters. "He was one in a million. We can't imagine life without our dad, we will miss him so much."
Mr Smith was born and brought up in Whitehaven with his three brothers and sister, before moving to Workington with his late wife Norma.
His daughter's said that when his wife died suddenly in 2011, it was like their dad had "lost his right arm."
"They were soul mates," they said. "They used to spend all their time together so when she died, he was lost.
"However he found comfort in his dog called Wally. They were inseparable."
A joiner by trade, Mr Smith had his own joinery business before working for several other firms – latterly Jackson's Timber Yard in Whitehaven.
"Joinery was his hobby as well as his profession," said his daughters. "He would make furniture rather than buy it and when we were young, he'd make us wooden toys.
"He thoroughly enjoyed his holidays to Florida – he went seven times. He enjoyed reading books like Stephen King and Harry Potter – he also enjoyed crosswords and spent hours watching crime stories on TV.
"He was a devoted dad, always there for us when we needed him and would always be the first person we would turn to. He always told us he loved us, making sure we knew.
"He was a grandad to two boys and a girl who he loved dearly. He was always supportive and would stand by us, even if he didn't agree with the decisions we had made. He didn't judge and always put others first."
The collision which claimed Mr Smith's life happened at 5.45pm on Tuesday near to the Oxford Street junction with Park Lane.
A 50-year-old woman from Workington, who was driving the grey Honda CR-V which collided with Mr Smith, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of driving without due care and attention and has since been released on bail.
Police inquiries are continuing into the incident and officers are appealing for help from the public who saw the incident.
They also want to speak to anybody who saw Mr Smith, who was wearing a long, hi-visibility yellow jacket and carrying a rucksack, attempting to cross the road at Oxford Street near to the bus station, or by Corporation Road.
Anyone with information should call the roads policing unit on 101.

A few of them then went up to her and stretched out their hands for a handshake. Poonam calmly shook hands thinking they were from the crew.

After throwing a ball to Giles, Dessens gingerly hopped around the mound and Colorado trainer Keith Dugger came out to check on him. The Rockies quickly decided to take him out.
Mark Redman replaced Dessens with one out and a runner on first. The Rockies purchased the contract of Redman from Triple-A Colorado Springs earlier in the day.
Dessens went 2 1-3 innings, allowing no hits, two walks and one run. He also had three strikeouts.

Oh boy! Can you say YUMMY! These were fantastic. I didn't have fluff so I cut 3 large marshmallows into 1/3s and placed them on the tortilla. These were super good and fast. I only had creamy peanut butter on hand and it was 5 stars.
Delicious! And, with a combination of marshmallow, peanut butter and chocolate it's sure to be a winner. This was so easy to put together and made for a quick and easy dessert. I opted to use up some mini marshmallows I had on hand and the crunchy peanut butter really took these over the top. Perfect when you have a craving for something sweet! Be sure to serve with a tall glass of ice cold milk for a real treat that's great for kids of all ages!
These were very indulgently yummy. I liked them just fine, but my 2 y.o. didn't care for them, which I don't get, cause the kid loves peanut butter...and chocolate. Maybe marshmallow was a turnoff. I would definitely make these for another set of kids, but not for my family.

No. I think it just comes down to the simple fact that over the past few years that when I think of Star Trek, I think of Kirk, Spock and the Enterprise. For me, they are Star Trek.
Before the spin-offs came, they were Star Trek. Now that the spin-offs have gone, they are Star Trek. Another Star Trek? I want it to feature Kirk, Spock and the Enterprise.
That is where my heart truly has always been. The spin-offs feel like filler.

"Big Switch Networks ecosystem ensures customers the broadest range of choice in physical and virtual infrastructure and applications, coupled with the industry's only open network application platform.

"Software-defined networking and network virtualization enable more robust, responsive IT infrastructures," said James Davis, Senior Vice President, Global Network Services, Fidelity Investments.

Franklin County Sheriff Announces Bid For Columbus Mayor
Franklin County Sheriff Zach Scott said, Wednesday, he will run for Mayor of Columbus next year.
Governor Strickland today suspended use of promotional lottery tickets following a report by Inspector General Tom Charles.
The state watchdog says Lottery Director Michael Dolan displayed improper action and "a lack of good judgment" when he sent 100 lottery tickets to a state trooper who earlier pulled him over for a possible traffic violation.
Strickland put an immediate hold on the handing out of lottery tickets for marketing or promotional use pending the development of a new policy on ticket giveaways.
The report released Tuesday in Columbus says the trooper stopped Dolan on Interstate 71 on Jan. 26 for driving without a front license plate. The trooper gave Dolan a verbal warning about the violation and for not wearing a seat belt.
The report says Dolan sent a letter to the trooper on Jan. 28 thanking him for the courtesy he showed during the stop and enclosing the promotional lottery tickets. The report says Dolan regularly gives promotional tickets to police departments.

No immediate help , but in a similar scenario I set up an SSL tunnel to a target server with "stunnel" and then ran RDP through that.
I didn't realise MS supported this over HTTP[S]. AIUI you get the RDP activex control from a web page, but that control makes a normal RDP connection to the target server port 3389.
Is proper RDP over HTTP a new feature for R2? Regardless I'd run up some network monitor (e.g. windump|ethereal) and verify whether the client is trying to contact to the server port 3389.
