Measuring Earthquakes - 12 of 15
Measuring Earthquakes FAQs - 15 Found
The earliest seismoscope was invented by the Chinese philosopher Chang Heng in A.D. 132. This was a large urn on the outside of which were eight dragon heads facing the eight principal directions of the compass. Below each dragon head was a toad with its mouth opened toward the dragon. When an earthquake occurred, one or more of the eight dragon-mouths would release a ball into the open mouth of the toad sitting below. The direction of the shaking determined which of the dragons released its ball. The instrument is reported to have detected an earthquake 400 miles away that was not felt at the location of the seismoscope. The inside of the seismoscope is unknown: most speculations assume that the motion of some kind of pendulum would activate the dragons.

Engineers Explain 45nm Delays, Errata
Kristopher Kubicki

Engineers blame simulation for quad-core "showstopper"
More than a few people noticed Intel's roadmap originally slated 45nm
desktop quad-core processors for January, only to have the company change the hard launch date to a not-so-firm "Q1 2008." So what happened? In a series of interviews, the tale of quad-core
began to unfold.
Processor engineers, speaking on background, detailed the problem. "Intel is very sensitive to mean time to failures. During a simulation, at high clock frequencies, engineers noticed an increase of potential failures after a designated amount of time."
He continues, "This is not acceptable for desktop customers that require longterm stability. It's a showstopper."
Previous reports of errata degrading the L2 and L3 cache performance were described as "false" -- desktop
processors do not even have L3 cache. Microcode and BIOS updates issued by Intel since November do not fix or address the "showstopper" bug affecting the launch of the
quad-core Q9300, Q9450 and Q9550 processors
The condition does not affect Xeon quad-core processors. Xeon uses a different stepping than the quad-core processors, which fixes this simulated condition. The quad-core 45nm Extreme Edition processor
launched in November
is also unaffected.
The company would not detail when the processors, originally scheduled for a January 20 launch but announced at CES last week, will see the light of day. Conservative estimates from ASUS and Gigabyte put the re-launch sometime in February. Intel completely removed its January 20 launch from its December 2007 roadmap and has not issued a new roadmap since.
Intel spokesman Dan Snyder says more. "We publicly claimed we will launch its 45nm mainstream processors in Q1 2008, and that's exactly what we did." In fact, the company announced 16 new 45nm processors last week; most of which already shipped to manufacturers -- with the exception of the quad-core desktop variants affected by the showstopper simulation bug.
Taiwanese media was
quick to pin the simulated problem on complacency and lack of competition from AMD
. Intel employees quickly denied the allegation, with the additional claim that the report was "humorous."
At CES last week, Snyder elaborates. "The tick-tock model prevents Intel from missing its launch dates. If the 'tock' team misses a target date, it doesn't affect the 'tick' team."
Tick-tock, the strategy of alternating cycles of architecture change and process shrink, became official company policy on January 1, 2006.
As to why the new Macbook Airs still use the 65nm Core 2 Duo processors?
Even after Foxconn alluded the new notebooks would get 45nm treatment
? Another Intel spokesman declined to respond, only stating, "Our partners are free to choose any of Intel's currently supported processors."

Ugh). Hm. You know, I'm wondering if we should have "isValidIfname" at all in domain_conf.c. The thing is that if you think about different platforms that this could be running on (Windows, Linux, Solaris, etc), and the number of different drivers that go through here (Qemu, Xen, ESX, Virtualbox, Phyp, openvz, ONE, UML), it seems like we have to allow everything to cover all bases. Indeed, there is very little else in domain_conf.c that does validity checking, probably for just this reason. Charles, Laine, what do you think about just removing this check completely? -- Chris Lalancette

On day 7 I'm sure twilight will come to Maddy's mind but for me....
I will remember these images.
This tunnel ran under the road leading to the Marymere Falls.
I'm used to grey dry moss back at home.
I was in awe over their moss...
green and lush covering every thing that stands still.
I had high hopes for good hair on this trip.
With no humidity I was some excited....
well mix no humidity with a continuous misty rain and you get this..
A ponytail everyday..ha!
Back home temps are reaching over 100 oh my!
I will try and remember the cool crisp air here.

"One of the largest sunspots in years is rotating over the sun's northeastern limb… Naturally, such a large sunspot has potential for strong flares. NOAA forecasters estimate a 50% chance of M-class solar flares during the next 24 hours. One such eruption has already occured: An M4-flare at 2200 UT on Nov. 2nd produced a bright flash of extreme UV radiation (SDO movie) and hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. The CME is not heading our way. Future CMEs could have greater effect as AR1339 turns toward Earth in the days ahead…" (Source)
Are we facing weather that will make last winter seem like a walk in the park?
"... The winter of 2010 to 2011 saw several intense superstorms break out across North America and Northern Europe. Meteorological experts are predicting far worse for the 2011 to 2012 winter season. Some regions may be trapped in snowfall of historic proportions. The possibility of being snowbound for up to a week or more will increase.
People living in areas that run the risk of being inundated by winter superstorms might consider taking advance precautions. Having enough foodon hand is a logical step..." (Helium.com)
"…Space weather forecasters are predicting an upswing in solar activity that may result in catastrophes on Earth.
The sun is on the upswing of an 11-year cycle called solar maximum, which is ripe for solar flares. The sun's volatility is expected to reach an apex sometime in May 2013, said William Murtagh, a space weather scientist with the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration. Scientists are racing to understand the effects its energy might have on the U.S power grids in hopes that potential cataclysm can be avoided…

Three months after welcoming her first child, Keira Knightley has finally revealed the name of her baby girl – Edie.
SIA reports citing the Hello Magzine that, the 30-year-old actress, who prefers to keep her personal life out of the spotlight, opened up about motherhood in a new interview with Elle magazine in celebration of the mother-baby bond.
"The love is astonishing," Keira said of her little girl. "It's a very primal, primal love. That's quite extraordinary. And the ability to have no sleep and continue going. It's not pleasant – I never thought that I could actually do it for the amount of time that I've done it." added the actress.

Vienna, one of Europe's coolcapitals
The capital of Austria, Vienna is a medieval city with modern appeal. In Vienna, art, music, theatre, food and architecture overlap to create one of the most culturally dynamic cities in the world. In Vienna, design and art- from furniture to jewelry - comes naturally as artists take inspiration from the breathtaking environs and elegant Viennese style. Vienna restaurants are world-famous and are distinguished as their own cultural attraction. However, food in Vienna is also influenced by the varied culinary traditions of Austria's many neighboring countries.

The well-known adage, "Time is money," recognizes the value of time. It is the one resource that cannot be regained. It is also the resource that seems to be most wasted. People have always struggled to manage their time. Although technology has made it easier to waste time, by using the internet, it can also help us use time wiser.
In addition to our own robust appointment scheduling tool, here are five time-management apps for the iPhone that will make managing life easier.
Checklist Wrangler
Checklists are an essential component of any organizational strategy. People use them every day in life, when they create grocery lists, to-do lists or any other kind of list. However, checklists are also notoriously difficult to manage. They often get lost, and there are simply too many to organize. In some ways, a bunch of checklists is like an unmanageable herd of steers. This is where Checklist Wrangler shines. This app is a true wrangler; it is the cowboy for checklists. Checklist Wrangler can handle any time of checklist. At home it can be used to create a grocery list, and at work it can be used to help monitor a nuclear reactor. It can also create lists for today, this week, this year and even a lifetime. There are several templates people can choose for each of these lists. Once created, they can be organized and emailed to other people.
Checklist Wrangler is useful for managing multiple checklists, but having an app dedicated to grocery shopping can help ease the frustration of shopping. Of all the grocery apps available, Shopper stands above the rest. Shopper comes in two versions, a basic one and an advanced one. Basic Shopper comes with a large list of common grocery items, but it is not exhaustive. Of course, this list can be added to manually. With the advanced version, the iPhone's camera can take a picture of a barcode, and Shopper will upload the item. It also can be coordinated between multiple people in a household and keeps users current on coupons and recalls.
Things is another list-making app that stands out from the crowd. It is designed to create lists and organize them around due-dates. Two features make this app unique. First, it has an option to postpone tasks until tomorrow. Although this might be dangerous, it can help people grasp their immediate situation. There also is a "someday" option, which is another potentially dangerous feature.
Omnifocus allows users to organize their lives across multiple platforms, as long as they are Apple devices. With it, people can manage tasks by location, person, date or project. It also can incorporate verbal notes, geographical information and photos.
ITimeSheetLIte is useful for tracking time. People may want to see where their day went, but it is really designed for professionals. This app provides an easy and convenient way to log time spent working on projects. With it, clients can be billed accurately, and professionals can focus on their work.
These five apps will help anyone become more organized. For the most part, they focus on creating and managing lists. That is, after all, the most difficult part of managing time. The best choice will depend on the specific situation.

Frilly hemmed denim micro-minis, button emblazoned vest tops, vintage wash jeans - is the latest high summer collection from Per Una Due the one to turn around Marks & Spencer's flagging fortunes? Well, to be perfectly honest, probably not.
But, with all the action at boardroom level these days it is good to be reminded the retail giant is primarily about clothes, not takeover bids and allegations of insider trading.
Launched in March, Per Una Due is the younger, more trend-led sister to George Davis's successful Per Una range. Aiming to take on the likes of Topshop, H&M and Zara, it prides itself on a fast turnover of stock, with new items hitting the store rails every four weeks.
The latest instalment will be in the shops next Thursday. High summer is a notoriously trend-free zone but Per Una Due has hit on some of this season's key pieces - the tea dress, the full, swingy skirt and the fitted, shrunken jacket - as well as great holiday basics: see the polka-dot-andchevronstriped bikini.
Even prices have edged a little closer to the rest of the high street: feminine floral print dresses at £45, jeans at £35 and rose print vest tops going for £19.50.
As always with M&S the product itself is hard to fault. The problem is that for fashion-hungry youth the M&S brand just doesn't have the all-important "cool" factor - mums might pick up a few items for their daughters but, left to their own devices, girls will no doubt head straight to Topshop.
Though this exclusive preview image, shot in Brighton, puts an optimistic spin on the range, all may not be so rosy back at Baker Street HQ. It is rumoured Per Una Due may become the first casualty under the new Stuart Rose regime - although the Due team are working on an autumn 2004 launch.
News that plans for a Per Una Due "stand-alone" store on the King's Road have now been put on hold indefinitely can only be seen as a blow for the fledgling range.

So, I spedilly finish my breakfast. Then, Viento nods. We all get into a huddle and then we start floating. Then, as my heart beats quickly, we zoom through the air, on our way to Hangman's Forest.

Lazarus tried to keep the tremor out of his voice as he encouraged Melissa out of the door with just his wallet and shaking nerves. As they walked through their town, Lazarus stopped and got some cigarettes. For once, Melissa said nothing as he smoked the whole pack one after another.
'Do you remember how to get back to James' town?' he asked, dropping the tenth cigarette butt on the floor.
'Sure,' she grasped his hand, preventing him from lighting the next cigarette that was hanging from between his lips. 'This way,' she said, pulling him in the direction of the woods. She led him through the dense woodland with a certainty that Lazarus couldn't doubt. To Melissa's irritation, he eventually got the cigarette lit as they walked hand in hand.
'Do you have to?' she snapped eventually. Lazarus gave her a sheepish look.
'Sorry,' he muttered, reluctantly dropping the cigarette on the ground. A light frost was falling around them, the leaves crunching under their feet loudly. They glanced at each other as they realised just how much noise Lazarus was making. He blushed, and turned his eyes to the ground, concentrating on quietening his footfall.
Eventually the woodland once again became tarmac and the edge of James' town. A muscle jumped in Lazarus' jaw and he resisted the urge to go buy another pack of cigarettes. The smoke may not kill him, but Melissa might if he gave into the temptation. They walked down the dark streets, passing through the patches of hideous orange light occasionally. The lights illuminated the two creatures, holding hands, their knuckles paled with the strength of their grip – their fear of letting go of each other.
They looked around them as they walked, but they failed to look up. James followed their path, walking along the edges of roofs, looking down. Lazarus paused, looking around, his nostrils flaring as a breeze carried James' scent down towards them. Melissa turned too, but they noticed James too late. The vampire leapt down from the roof to "greet them".
'Hello!' James said brightly. 'Pray tell, what brings you back to my... humble town?' he smirked and looked at Lazarus. Lazarus held the eye contact with a cold gaze. But it was Melissa that spoke, and James' misogynistic behaviour only served to make Melissa's words even angrier.
'I come to challenge you. A fight – to the death. Each person brings along a comrade, to fight alongside.' She paused, taking in the calm look upon James' face. 'And no mortal weapons,' she added, narrowing her eyes a little. James nodded slowly.
'Ahh. When? And where?' he asked with a tired sigh that reminded Melissa of a child bored of its toys.
'The forest clearing, just outside this town. Tomorrow night.' She snarled. 'To clarify, who shall you bring? I of course will bring Lazarus.' James glanced at Lazarus, who was keeping quiet through the exchange.
'Nothing to say, dog?' James sneered. Lazarus' eyes managed to get even colder, though the icy glare wasn't putting James off at all.
'What would I have to add? This is a vampire thing. And as you so astutely noticed, I am a dog.' Lazarus replied. James laughed and turned his attention back to Melissa.
'I shall bring Fenris, Beta to the wolf pack in my town.' He walked towards Melissa grabbing her chin between his finger and thumb and kissed her firmly. 'To which, I accept your challenge.' Lazarus did his best to restrain himself. So he only punched James in the side of the head. James retreated a couple of steps, laughing.
'One question. For Lazarus, if I may.' He said, eyeing the werewolf. Lazarus' teeth were bared and he growled.
'Did you enjoy sleeping with a corpse?' James snickered as Lazarus' face fell. Lazarus was doing his best to avoid falling for the vampire's provocative remarks. Melissa put a hand on his shoulder, but he shook it off, lunging for James. James simply jumped upon the roof of a nearby house and laughed again before disappearing into the night. His laughter still floated back to them on the breeze. Lazarus swore loudly and slammed his fist into the wall of the building that James had sought refuge from.
Melissa calmly put her hands on his shoulders again, murmuring in his ear: 'His time will come,' she told him. She kissed him softly on the cheek and turned him around so he faced her.
'It will, I know. I tried. I tried not to let him provoke me. Sorry.' He sighed.
'It's fine although we should savour tonight, there is the chance it might be our last.' She sighed, slightly down-heartened. Lazarus arched an eyebrow at her.
'Now who's being the pessimist?' he laughed and kissed her gently. Melissa didn't join him in the laughter, though.
'I'm sorry, I can't help it. I'm just so scared,' she cried. Lazarus' eyes softened and he hugged her tightly. He kissed her again, trying to relieve the tension, but it wouldn't go.
'We'll be okay,' he said, forcing a smile onto his lips.
'I hope so,' she replied. He took her hand and pulled her out of the road as a car sped towards them.
'C'mon.' He said, looking back the way they came from the woods. 'That cave wasn't too far from here, was it? We can sleep there today.'
'Déjà vu.' She smiled. 'But no, it wasn't. This way,' she said, leading him back into the woods. The frost had already melted, though the sun was only just rising. Its light stroked the horizon, a thin band of pink appearing in the darkness. They turned their backs on it and walked.

When you were seventeen, you were so broken that when you scraped your leg at the skate park that day, the sight of your blood scared you so much you cried in my arms for an hour. You were a teenage boy inconsolably weeping over a skinned knee.
When you were sixteen, you filled your heart with vodka and your mind with whiskey. You had been drowning for so long you weren't even interested in the surface anymore. You were my sweet sun from the beaches of California, but you asked me, the New England girl who'd only ever seen the ocean that sunk the Titanic, to be your lifeguard.
When you were fifteen, you were so confident in yourself that whenever the blades tore deep into your paled skin, you wouldn't bat an eye. You'd promise me that it would heal up fast, no problem at all. Every cut scarred so horribly that you were no longer able to tell the difference between the ones you gave yourself and the ones everyone else gave you.
When you were fourteen, you slept anywhere and everywhere except in your own room. Your parents didn't care if it was illegal to lock you out, and you didn't want to be around them in the first place, so you slept on all of our friend's floors, or in your backyard, if they were mad. You told me it was kinda fun.
When you were thirteen, you dropped your necklace in the gap between your front porch and its stairs, where the wood had rotted away and all the bugs you hated most had moved into. You loved that necklace as if it were your soul, but you couldn't bring yourself to plunge your hand into the unknown. I watched your anxiety seep into your veins and make your eyes well up, and before I could let my owninsectophobia get the best of me, I bit my cheek and retrieved it for you. I'd never seen someone so grateful.
When you were twelve, you were so baffled by me letting you take the last chocolate milk at lunch that you wrote me an angry letter listing all of the reasons why I shouldn't be nice to you because you didn't deserve it. That was the first time I disobeyed someone's command.
When you were eleven, you were so happy that it broke your parents' hearts, so they moved you across the country to where the wind blew cold so your soul would turn to ice. You loved the change of seasons. You loved how the leaves would turn the colors of your hair and how the snow would fall so heavy it would cancel school.
When you were ten, you loved the world and all of the living things in it so deeply that you even stopped seeing all of the evils humanity brought to your own home.
When you were nine, no matter how hard he hit you, you would shrug it off like a good strong boy.
When you were eight, you wouldn't listen to your teachers and you had to sit out during recess almost every day.
When you were seven, you stopped believing in a benevolent creator. You were a tiny little outspoken atheist that liked to wear hawaiian shirts with sweatpants.
When you were six, you always had a pack of those candy cigarettes the ice cream truck sold, and you were always swearing.
When you were five, that was the first time he showed you what color your blood was, and how it can pool up under your skin and cover your body with different sized spots like you were some sad version of a dalmatian.

The gourmet kitchen & pantry is fully stocked with all the necessities (small appliances and staples) that a chef will require to whip up a fantastic meal to delight family members or friends. The kitchen boasts of a granite island, stainless steel appliances (large fridge with a water filtration system, a gas range with hood fan, dishwasher and microwave).

There are many things to do in these areas, watch TV, chill out to some music, cozy up to the fireplace, surf the net, snuggle up on the cozy furniture to read a book, my favorite unwind and relax in a ergonomics reclining chair that looks out at the amazing view, or better yet admire and converse with those in the kitchen preparing your wonderful meal.

Part 1: Lost in the Big City
A juvenile fiction... mainly written as practice a while ago. Pete and Joley are young orphans trying to find their Uncle in the big city (of...??). Events and people they meet lead them on quite the journey in hopes of finding a new home, security, and all the things children hope for. Feel free to add a paragraph.
The worry was starting to set in. What looked familiar before now stood as question marks. "Have we passed that building before?" Joley asked, not really wanting an answer.
Pete sighed. "Maybe."
It had been seven hours since their feet left the 247 LX bus, landing them in middle of this foreign forest of skyscrapers. The misery of sitting shoulder-to-shoulder on sticky leather seats now sounded like a dream come true. After at least a thousand steps retraced, some thirty attempts to glean information from local street vendors, and trying to make sense of confusing and complex city maps, being lost was the only sure thing left.
Pete gazed up at the beating sun. It was 3 o'clock in the afternoon. He recalled the almost-forgotten excitement he shared with his sister early that morning. Was it really just that morning? A lifetime had passed since then. The two siblings had been planning such an adventurous escape for weeks. Finally, their only chance came and they took it. Was it a mistake? Pete asked himself. What have we done?
For three long years the Pete and Joley lived on the very outskirts of town. People had probably forgotten such country existed. Mrs. Jones had promised their uncle they would be "part of the family". Untrue to her words, however, the children were treated like stray dogs. You'll be sorry, Pete always muttered to himself before going to sleep every night on their makeshift bed of mildewed hay and tattered blankets. Mrs. Jones had put a few boards up on the back of the house barely providing shelter from the rains and snow. "Yah keep out a trouble nah or yah can join them pigs in the barn," She had said roughly. "These are hard times, yah know." We'll escape, Mrs. Jones and one day you'll be sorry! Pete was only 8 years old then and Joley just turning 5.
"My feet… I just don't know..." Joley collapsed on a nearby bench. The bench looked as though it had been through a hurricane, faded green paint revealing splinters in most places and the wooden slats wobbly from use. Regardless of its appearance, the bench welcomed the travelers with open arms as if understanding all their woes.
Pete sighed as he slumped next to Joley. "It's gonna be a'ight, sis."
"Where is Uncle Riley?" Joley began to cry. She had been trying to be tough like her brother, but her tired eyes couldn't hold back the tears any longer.
"I…" Pete tried to think of something comforting to say, but the words couldn't be found. His dry mouth and chapped lips tried again, "We will find him. We'll find that donut shop, too. Remember?"
Uncle Riley was Momma's brother. He was kind and cared for Pete and Joley as long as he could. At least once a week, they he would take them to a small donut shop just down the street from his apartment. Dipped in chocolate and covered in sprinkles, Joley could still remember how the donut would melt in her mouth. What she would give to have one of those now!
"I remember," her face brightening with such a delicious thought. But what was the shop called? She shook her head and wiped her nose with dirt-streaked hands. She thought she could be brave, but she was downright terrified. Maybe Uncle Riley had been right. "City ain't a place for young'ins."
"Don't move." A voice pierced the children's thoughts like a dagger. "Move and you'll regret it." The voice said again.

We read with interest the article by Patterson et al1 in a recent issue of CHEST (June 2013) that demonstrated a high proportion of daytime sleepiness using the Epworth Scale in patients with sarcoidosis. The authors concluded that sleepiness could be a contributing factor to fatigue in some of these patients. The authors are careful to point out that daytime sleepiness is not the same as fatigue, as emphasized by Brown2 in the accompanying editorial. We recently published a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study examining the treatment of sarcoidosis-associated fatigue with armodafinil.3 In that study, we screened all patients for OSA and only included in the study those patients with an apnea/hypopnea index < 6/h. All patients then underwent an overnight sleep study followed by a multiple sleep-latency test before and after each treatment arm.
Despite the absence of OSA, we found one-half of the patients with sarcoidosis had a sleep onset latency of < 8 min, indicative of hypersomnolence. Furthermore, despite using two fatigue instruments, there was no difference in the fatigue severity for those patients with or without a shortened sleep-onset latency. In addition, armodafinil significantly improved fatigue in these patients, including those with objective evidence of hypersomnolence.
Fatigue can be due to several factors in patients with sarcoidosis, including not only sleepiness but also depression, medications, and ongoing inflammation from the disease.4 However, patients with sarcoidosis may still have marked fatigue without either depression or sleep apnea. For these patients, treatment with stimulants3,5 may be useful.
