December 1, 2004 By December 2004, 197 international volunteers and 2,582 national staff for Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) were providing emergency assistance in 27 locations in Darfur in areas with more than 600,000 displaced people. MSF doctors and nurses conducted an estimated 78,000 consultations each month. MSF's main activities continued to focus on treating malnourished children in therapeutic feeding centers (TFCs) and supplementary feeding centers (SFCs); treating patients suffering from diseases like respiratory infections, diarrhea, hepatitis E, and malaria; running blanket feeding programs; and providing clean water and improving sanitation to reduce the risk of disease. WEST DARFURGeneral ActivitiesEl GeneinaMSF Teams carry out medical, nutritional, hygiene and sanitation activities in hospitals, health centers and therapeutic feeding centers. There are currently estimated to be 100,000 residents, and 80,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) in the town. MSF works in the pediatric department of El Geneina hospital and runs a therapeutic feeding center. The hospital operation theatre has been restored and MSF now works in the surgery department. MSF is working in Abu Zhar Camp, located in the center of town with an estimated 8,800 IDPs. A clinic established just outside the camp provides curative and preventive care to the camp population as well as the surrounding community. MSF is also working in Al Ryad Camp, with an estimated population of 15-18,000. A comprehensive outpatient consultation center and a small admission ward have been established. Other activities include antenatal care and nutritional screening. MSF also works on the chlorination of water wells throughout El Geneina town and follows-up a small camp called Madina with a population of about 5,000. HabilahThe population of 22,300 IDPs and 7,000 residents benefit from an MSF 20-bed clinic. Blanket supplementary food distribution has been given and therapeutic food treatment is ongoing. KerenekThere are 22,000 IDPs living in a camp and 5,000 residents. MSF activities include outpatient consultations and an inpatient clinic with 20 beds. Blanket supplementary food distribution has been done and therapeutic food treatment is ongoing. MornayThere are about 80,000 people living in Mornay, 95% of whom are IDPs. MSF works in the hospital, runs two out patient departments and a therapeutic feeding center. MSF teams also carry out blanket feeding distribution and work on water supply. ZalingeiMSF works in the pediatric ward; runs two out patient departments; runs a therapeutic feeding center; carries out blanket feeding; and works on water supply. Zalingei has a population of 30,000 residents and 60,000 IDPs. NiertitiNiertiti has 15,000 IDPs and 10,000 residents. MSF runs an inpatient department, an outpatient department and a therapeutic feeding center, as well as working on water supply and providing blanket feeding. GoloMSF is running the outpatient department in Golo Hospital, providing rehabilitation and antenatal care. There is an ongoing measles vaccination campaign in Golo and Gildo which has covered 15,000 people to date. Garsila, Deleig, Um Kher, Mukjar, Bindisi and Um DukhumMSF is running therapeutic, supplementary and blanket feeding programs focusing on children under 5, their families and malnourished pregnant women. MSF is providing basic health and antenatal care through fixed and mobile clinics, as well as in-patient care. MSF is also working on water and sanitation, sexual violence and mental health. In total, MSF is providing assistance to a target population of more than 350,000 displaced people in West Darfur. General Health SituationTeams are giving nearly 54,000 consultations per month in the eleven locations where MSF works. There are currently about 800 inpatient admissions per month into MSF facilities in west Darfur. The main pathologies are still diarrhea, malaria, acute respiratory infections, hepatitis and urinary tract infections. Malaria is still the main cause of inpatient admission and has remained a major problem towards the end of the rainy season. In Kerenek, malaria accounted for 42% of all inpatient admissions in recent months. Admissions due to the Hepatitis E epidemic have been particularly high in the Kerenek and Habila areas accounting for 6 to 9% of the consultations in these towns. Hepatitis E admissions are now stable in Niertiti and there has recently been a reduction in cases in Mornay and Zalingei (a total of 5,500 cases in Mornay and Zalingei so far). There are still sporadic cases of measles, and some children are under TB treatment in Zalingei and Mornay. The fact that the populations in the camps have been predominantly affected by communicable diseases such as diarrhea and hepatitis can be clearly attributed to the water and sanitation problems associated with crowded temporary settlements. With the onset of the dry season, additional health problems such as meningococcal meningitis, diarrheal diseases, typhoid and shigellosis are anticipated. Nutritional situationIn general, the nutritional situation in the camps has dramatically improved over the last month. There are now very few patients in the therapeutic feeding centers in El Geneina, Mornay, Zalingei and Niertiti. More than 5,000 severely and moderately malnourished children have been treated in MSF therapeutic feeding centers in West Darfur to date. MSF is still distributing survival rations to several sites, to make up for the shortfall in general food distributions made by the World Food Program (WFP). MSF has distributed almost 350,000 supplementary rations so far. These distributions will be end by mid-December and some of our nutritional activities are now being handed over to other organizations. Living Conditions for Displaced People and ResidentsThe structure of the shelters varies from camp to camp. Those who were displaced a year ago have more structured semi-permanent housing but those who migrated recently or fled their villages in a hurry are still living in poor makeshift structures in over-extended camps. The water supply, drainage and sanitation status also varies from camp to camp. MSF reports that a huge amount of work has been done to improve the living conditions of the displaced people in the sites where they are working (Mornay, Zalingei, El Geneina and Niertiti) especially in terms of water distribution. However, there is still much work to be done to improve living conditions in some of the other camps, such as Habilah and Kerenek. A survey conducted in September in these two camps indicated that only 20 to 30% of the displaced population have basic utensils required for daily cooking and carrying water. SOUTH DARFURGeneral ActivitiesKass, Kalma (Nyala), Shariya, Muharia, Labado, El SerefThe MSF teams carry out about 3,000 consultations a week over the five locations, with a total target population of 225,000 IDPs. The teams run therapeutic, supplementary and blanket feeding programs focusing on children under 5, their families and malnourished pregnant women. They also provide basic health care through fixed and mobile clinics, as well as antenatal and in-patient care. 20% of patients are under 5 years old. There are also programs targeting victims of Sexual and Gender Based Violence and those suffering from mental health problems. Water and sanitation work continues and there are currently 939 latrines under construction. MSF is providing about 2,500 cubic meters of chlorinated water per day. General Health SituationThe main diseases seen are watery and bloody diarrhea, acute respiratory infections, eye problems, pneumonia and malaria. Nutritional situationAdmissions into the therapeutic feeding center are stable in Kalma, decreasing in Kass and Labado and increasing in Muhajuria and Shariya. In the last week of November there were 805 admissions into the MSF TFCs in South Darfur, and 4,624 beneficiaries of the supplementary feeding program. General ActivitiesKebkabyiaThe team have shifted the focus of operations from working in the Ministry of Health hospital to running three outpatient health centers in different parts of town. However, supervision of nursing care, consultations and drug consumption continues in the hospital. Over the three months of August, September and October, MSF gave 30,000 outpatient consultations in the hospital outpatient department and the three Kebkabyia health centers. Respiratory infections were the most common health problem. A measles vaccination campaign was completed in Kebkabyia in September, with an estimated coverage of 75%. Seraf UmraMSF is supporting the health center, with a short-stay capacity of 30 beds. It provides an average of 700 consultations per week, 33% of which are for children under 5. There is also a therapeutic feeding center run by MSF in Seraf Umra, currently caring for 62 children. Teams are assessing villages in the surrounding area and providing measles vaccinations. KormaThe team has been trying to set up a permanent base in Korma but work has been interrupted several times because of security incidents. A health center which had been damaged back in March was refurbished by MSF and nurses and medical assistants were given training. The team started giving medical consultations in the third week of November, but had to evacuate on November 24th due to fighting in the town of Tawilla. They have since returned to Korma and are giving 500 consultations per week. The team is also working in Seraf Ayat, a nearby village where there are 1,500 IDPS. MSF has provided food and non-food items and is vaccinating against measles. Jebel Si regionA mobile team vaccinated 8,000 children in the south region of the Jebel Si during November, and confirmed there to be a measles outbreak in the area. They also did a fast nutritional screening and gave 400 medical consultations, mainly for diarrhea suspected measles cases, respiratory infections and conjunctivitis. The team will now set up a new project in the area, with mobile clinics. A blanket food distribution is planned. El Fashir, Tunjur, Shangil Tobaya, Dar es SalaamMSF teams are running therapeutic feeding centers in El Fashir and Shangil Tobaya; supplementary feeding centers in El Fashir, Tunjur, Shangil Tobaya and Dar es Salaam. Outpatient clinics are operating full time in Zam-Zam camp, Shangol Tobaya and Dar es Salaam and twice a week in Tunjur. Measles vaccination campaignTeams vaccinated 15,660 children in three IDP camps and eight villages. General Health SituationThe main diseases seen in the clinics throughout North Darfur are acute respiratory infections, watery diarrhea and skin and eye infections. Malaria cases are dropping significantly since the end of the rainy season. After a peak of 230 cases of malaria in Seraf Umra during the first week of November, malaria cases have now dropped to account for about 5% of all consultations. It is now the winter period and is getting very cold at night so teams are preparing for an increase in problems such as meningitis.

This is something I started doing a while back and chances are, even if you are a dedicated Technmarketing reader, you missed some of my interviews. Many people have asked me for an organized and updated list of everyone I interviewed, so here it is. I will be updating the list as I interview more people.

You're watching...

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Hi I'm Bill O'Reilly thanks for watching -- denied the bias crime cover up in Virginia Grohl said as a subject of this evening's talking points memo.
Last week defector reported on a bias assaulted nor for that left two newspaper reporters injured.
Shortly after 11 PM on April 14 26 year old -- genre stunning.
And 31 year old David Forster were coming home from the theater when someone threw a rock at deer vehicle.
Forster got out to confront the assailant and we set upon by approximately five African American young man who beat him.
The thugs and attack this respond.
As a crowd of about thirty.
Surrounding the vehicle.
And witnessed the assault.
Hysterical mr.
sonic called 911 in the police Iraq.
The initial police report described the assault as a bias crime and a sixteen year old has been arrested.
But now the Norfolk police say it was not a bias crime and are refusing to release the 911 tape.
Saying that would hurt their investigation.
How could that be possible.
In addition.
Both victims have filed complaints against the Norfolk Police Department alleging the investigation was mishandled and the cops didn't really walked.
To -- the assailants or even find them.
At the same time the newspaper the reporters work for the Virginian pilot.
Didn't cover this story for two weeks despite the fact the reporters had to take a week off from work to do with their rules.
The editor the pilot Dennis -- declined to be interviewed by me but did talk to Jesse Watters.
This story has been blown out of proportion.
And asked not to diminish the fact that I had to reporters who got beaten.
But what it amounts to is.
A street altercation not a mob attacked no evidence that it was a racial attack.
We spoke to some people today he said it you know there may have been some trade on more and retribution you had people on ABC.
Saying -- when people come around this neighborhood that are from this neighborhood they're better watch out.
You know if you have.
Black mobs five or six people beating up -- white people.
You don't think that the Jimmie deserves to know that.
Well was it a black Marbury was that a street altercation -- a handful of people.
You -- reporters said that it was about thirty people on the street or mystery yes but a handful were involved in the fight a handful.
But they were outmanned by quite its considerable amount of people sure sure and a woman was attacked a woman was involved.
But again.
Simple assault.
It was not a mob attacked and there's no way for me to know whether it was racially motivated.
Well here's some advice to mr.
-- It's -- Rob the find out whether it was racially motivated that's what the press does.
You don't sit around.
Wonder Green.
And ignoring the story.
That's absurd.
It didn't take long for Jesse to -- neighborhood guys say they saw what happened when the two reporters were solved.
And -- guys came after him like five or six are full all fifteen.
-- -- all love would be.
You -- haven't yet.
And they were will put up on the girls cigarette you know -- now.
If it is really deserve it.
Was it a racial thing like betrayed by Martin's situation I thanks.
Now the story gets even more disturbing the victims mistress Romney and mr.
Have received death threats and had to leave the Norfolk area for time.
They're not security guard's providing protection because the situation so fall.
In the face of all this Virginia's attorney general Ken could you -- he says his offense will not intervene.
Or even provide oversight.
Could -- Delhi also says he will not.
Ask that the 911 tape he relates.
Susan victims have filed formal charges.
Against in Norfolk Police Department.
Were obviously having trouble getting a handle on a case we find the attorney general's apathy troubling to say the least.
So we call Virginia governor Bob McDonnell who late this afternoon.
Said he would take a look at the case.
The governor has the power to order -- state investigation which this situation badly needs.
Finally unlikely -- on Martin's situation which the national media aggressively covered factor is the only national news program reporting the story.
Yes -- bombs killed and these two reporters are alive but it is inconceivable.
That had a white mob.
Set upon two black Americans.
The media would sit it out.
But that's what's happening in the Virginia case.
That's not that tough towards the united debriefing of -- wars joins us now.
-- to two.
Reporters who got beat up yeah -- right or what's their situation now.
Will physically did heal from their injuries but there's still incredibly shaken up.
The male victim was from South Dakota he wasn't a street Smart kid he was very naive at this point he knows he should never been exited the vehicle.
And right now it feels a little emasculated because he was beaten up in front of his girlfriend and wasn't able protect.
And the girl came out to try to save him.
Right and came out of the -- and she's got to be up and from what I hero also she's been hysterical and livid at the local press coverage she called in to a local news reporter and was complaining at the top of her lungs about.
The -- for trial that they're getting in the news down at all what do you mean by that I mean what is she upset about exactly I think what this local press is doing is they're taking everything from the police report and their kind of discounting.
The eyewitness testimony from these two reporters so that the the woman who was assaulted doesn't think that -- the cases being reported accurately doesn't -- as far as serious she says she doesn't like the report -- down there are from the local press but actually they're pleased with the fact that now the gang unit has taken over the investigation.
Within the Norfolk repeated.
Now he's saying they have received death threats yes the two reporters they have one about what they do they just get beat up.
I think there's a lot of racial animosity in Norfolk and I think because the story was so explosive.
And because it was two weeks before it came out it was like a top was put on this powder keg and all of -- -- exploded.
And a lot of people the black community in the wake a trademark and Martin are kind of using this as.
Leverage your kind of avenues to do you think that this attack was racially motivated awaited his budget kids hanging around 11 o'clock at night and up and do and they decided Austro personally I don't think they hate white people but they did tell me.
They target white people because he gives who's a threat who told one of the eyewitnesses is they attack like people.
Because it's an easy mark they -- taken down and gives him street cred.
The editor didn't look very good show and now he didn't I mean you know well I'm not sure enemy -- you flood zone would reportedly find out and we say you -- -- not from around every city down from New York you've got ten times as much information as his whole staff has gotten Ronnie weeks right.
So what do you think that's all about his -- afraid of the stories -- leave you must be afraid I think he's afraid of the story I think is bad PR for the city it's bad PR for the beach community gets a lot of tourism.
And if he was a Smart businessmen he would -- the story.
So -- the -- -- massive clicks massive distribution everywhere -- used to -- and now because he waited so long he put his -- reporters in danger.
Wahid has certainly don't have that back now and now they're getting death threats so anyway I know we're gonna continue covering the story particularly the state level we expect the governor of Virginia.
To intervene here it needs to be that needs to -- we need to get to 911 tape also that needs to happen.
I just -- thanks for.

Start as for Muscular Dystrophy, but where MD cuts left 12' up from the handcrack to a finger crack, place a 2" or 2.5" cam and cut ever so slightly left to a flake and seam. A questionable medium nut can go behind the flake, and up and high right some micro cams or a small TCU can be placed with a little reach, in an open spot in the seam. This is visible from the ground. Move up past those moves (10a, crux?) to a stance where you can reach around to the right and set a few nuts in a crack for the right hand (hard to see until you look for it) which are good nuts. Pull up and layback on this hold a tad (10a? maybe this is the crux) to reach for positive holds above, then do the easy moves from there to the belay on the ledge above. You can finish on Laughing At The Moon or Muscular Dystrophy. Rossiter's description and topo are poor. The position of the route is clear, but there are a few issues: 1) The route is sure easy for 10b (9+/10a, my partner agreed) 2) The route is well protected for an S (partner agreed) 3) There is no fixed pin, which was prominent in the description and topo.
The route was rated S in Rossiter's books. The books also mention a fixed pin, which is not there and has not been for a while. Nonetheless, the route protects reasonably on some small-to-mediam nuts and micro-cams. I placed the bottom 2 sizes of micro-Camalots and then a #7 BD nut next to a BD copper-steel nut (#4?). That was the hard part. I got a few nuts in later as well. I never felt as though I was risking a long fall.
Just backing up Tony's assessment. For sure not "S", for sure not 5.10b, and definitely no pin; however, I think it's two stars when combined with Laughing at the Moon in one pitch. Kick ass!
The first 30' are nice, steep climbing. I agree that the crux is not S and that the old rating of 5.9+ is more like it. However, some quality and an S can be added to the route, by continuing straight up a 5.8ish slab (no pro, ledge ) after the crux rather than going up the easy corner to the left. By itself, this climb is a solid one star.
Huge rails up a short route. Easy 5.9. Soft touch for the grade.
The pin was courtesy of Leigh "Manuel" McGinley and me in 1987. The new Rossiter guide hadn't come out yet, the route was dirty and poorly protected before the crux, and the were lots of new bolt routes going in. So we climbed it in trad style ground up, placed the pin on lead, and named it "Lone Justice". Rossiter published the next year and correctly identified it as the Bat, noted the pin, and incorrectly rated it 10- s. I agree that it is a better start to Laughing or MD.
You internet guys must have bats between your ears if you think this is well protected.... I say put that short/fat blade back where it belongs and don't kid yourself about those micro cams....
Does every route have to have protection every ten feet? Why would you want to ruin a fine (though not great) natural line with some fixed gear? The climbing is fairly secure and easy, so what if you have to run it out a tad (and only a tad).
Scott, That "short flat blade" you mention would probably occupy the space where the bomber #7 stopper I mentioned goes. The climb is not runout. If a pin is replaced and over time becomes questionable (which it will), the gear will be lacking in desirability. I say let the climber place his pro and place it well. I don't think that you will say a good #7 stopper won't hold a fall, so... As far as trusting microcams and their ability to hold goes.... I don't have bats between my ears. Yes, you've been climbing for a lot longer than me, and climbing harder at that, but we've both been climbing since before the little cams were invented, and it seems a majority of people think that they are pretty good. I'm not talking #00 Friends (aid pieces) I am talking the red and yellow micro-Camalots. They will hold if the rock does.
I second the recommendation to link this with the upper pitch of LATM. I used a 70m rope, but a 60m might work. A great ~200ft pitch....
A nice pitch and with long runners above the crux section can easily be linked with Laughing at the Moon into a 60m three star 5.10 or go a little left and straight up after the ledge to reach the anchor at the top of the 'second pitch" of Muscular Dystrophy for a 25m rappel/top-rope. Micro cams C3 #1 and 0 below and a #4 micro stopper at the crux make it a solid pro sew-up. No need for a pin- well worth doing alone or a nicer start to MD.
A 60m will work to link all the way up through 'Laughing'. Walk off. Sick link up that can be done with a standard Eldo rack. Recommend this to 5.10- Eldo onsighters for sure. #1 TCU/Mastercam-ish placement below the low crux is good (I tested it).
PG Plenty of gear, but there were a few pieces I didn't want to test. Probably wouldn't get hurt, though
Fun route, a little exciting but there is more gear than it appears from the ground. Wasn't sure I was going to do it, because from the ground, there looks to be no gear, but once you get going, there are plenty of opportunities. Plan on using lots of small gear and working for your placements.

No matter what Rhett Butler says, frankly, we do give a you-know-what, especially when it comes to "Gone With the Wind." And that means celebrating the Oscar-winning film's history.
The N.C. Museum of History exhibit, "Real to Reel: The Making of Gone with the Wind," showcases mementos from the filming of the 1939 flick. The 120 items come from the personal collection of Jim Tumblin, a former head of the Universal Studios makeup and hair department.
It includes costumes, Vivien Leigh's Academy Award, story boards and scripts.
Oh, the costumes. The stars of the exhibit are the clothes: Scarlett O' Hara's dress from the Shantytown scene; Bonnie Blue's velvet dress from her final scene; and the uniform that Ashley Wilkes wore when he returned home at the end of the Civil War.
Curator Katie Edwards said the exhibit also takes note of the ugliness of the times, such as the original segregation of the California set and the banning of the black actors from the December 1939 premiere in Atlanta.
The movie "is definitely a romanticized version of the Old South," Edwards said. " ... That's why we delve into the racial conflicts."
The details: Admission is free. The exhibit is on display through Jan. 13. The museum is at 5 E. Edenton St. in Raleigh and is open daily. Go to ncmuseumofhistory.org.

War has changed. Or has it?
With Call of Duty coming out every November like clockwork and a slew of shooters jumping on that "modern warfare" bandwagon it can be easy to succumb to shooter fatigue. That doesn't mean I can borrow a page from classic gaming history and turn in a review that reads "just another shooting game" though; each Call of Duty game brings something to the table that's worth talking about. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 moves the franchise forward in some ambitious ways, but it's held back by the very structure the series is known for.

Item | Icon | Description |
Intention actions suggested | A yellow bulb indicates that PhpStorm just proposes to alter your code. It covers a range of situations from warning correction to suggestions for code improvement (like micro-refactorings). | |
Specific intention action | This sign appears in the suggestion list before each specific intention action. If an intention action alert is disabled, the sign turns to . Disabled intention action is still available and can be enabled again. | |
Quick-fix suggested | A red bulb with an exclamation mark indicates that PhpStorm suggests a way to fix an error. It is related to Create from usage intentions and Quick fixes. | |
Disabled | Alert is disabled, but the intention action is still available and can be enabled again. |
Intention action types
Find descriptions of specific intention actions on the Intentions page of the Settings dialog, where they are grouped according to the areas of their usage. Generally, intention actions can be divided into several categories, for example:
- Create from usage
- This type of intention action creates new code items: classes, methods, etc. They are smart enough to analyze your code and provide actions suitable for a particular case. The main concept behind this type is that you can begin using new things without declaring them first. You are not taken away from your current task for mundane minutiae like creating declarations, new files, etc. which PhpStorm handles while you keep focused.
- Quick fixes
- This type of intention action responds to common coding mistakes: using an improper access modifier, or an expression of the wrong type, or missing resources, etc. PhpStorm catches these kinds of problems as you type, and provides a quick way to fix them using Intentions Actions with appropriate suggestions for the error.
- Micro-refactorings
These intention actions appear for code that is syntactically correct, but can be structurally improved by such things as:
- Converting code constructs.
- Splitting declarations and assignments.
- Splitting or merging statements and tags, etc. - Edit <Injected Language> Fragment
- For string literals that represent language injections, the Edit <Injected Language> Fragment intention action is available. You can use this intention action to open the corresponding code fragment in a separate editor.

Definition (Encyclopedia of Global Resources)
Earthquakes occur following the rapid release of energy stored in rocks. Rocks beneath the Earth's surface are continually subjected to forces in all directions. When the forces exceed the limits which the rocks can sustain, they respond by either folding or breaking. If the forces are relatively rapid and the rocks are brittle, then the rocks actually break. The result is a shaking of the ground. This shaking is most prominent on the Earth's surface.
(The entire section is 77 words.)
Overview (Encyclopedia of Global Resources)
An earthquake first originates at a point called the focus, which is beneath the Earth's surface. This fracture, which begins at a point, grows from a microscopic crack into a large fault which can extend for many kilometers. However, as mentioned, this fracture will be propagated only through brittle material. In other words, faults will not extend indefinitely into the Earth's subsurface. Nor will they extend indefinitely through brittle material, because there will be a point where there is insufficient energy remaining to break rock far removed from the initial source of a fracture. Focal depths of earthquakes occur over a range of depths, extending from just below the Earth's surface to a depth of approximately 700 kilometers. Below this great depth rocks are no longer brittle and thus cannot break.
In addition to the more obvious effects of seismic activity on the surface, earthquakes cause a considerable amount of subsurface activity. Seismic energy passing through brittle rock produces faults and cracks of varying sizes throughout the rock. These fissures serve as conduits for fluids, which can move through the rock much more readily than they could before the rock was broken. If the fluids contain dissolved minerals, these will be deposited in concentrated amounts. Such is the case when molten rock rises below the surface and is injected into cracks. Concentrated deposits of gold, silver, and other valuable metals are...

Definition (Encyclopedia of Global Warming)
An earthquake is a shaking or trembling of the ground caused by energy coming from volcanic eruptions or from rocks breaking during the geologic process known as faulting. This process takes place as a result of differential movements of segments of the Earth's crust known as plates. The plate tectonics theory has identified seven major crustal plates, as well as several minor plates, which are thought to be colliding with one another, separating from one another, or sliding past one another like books on a tabletop. The sudden movements of these plates, as they separate, collide, or slide past one another, are believed to cause most of the planet's earthquakes.
Volcanoes can cause earthquakes too, but these earthquakes are generally minor and occur only during periods of heightened volcanic activity. Some additional causes of earthquakes include landslides that drop large quantities of earth suddenly on underlying surfaces, and human activities, such as blasting during surface or underground mining operations. The shock waves from underground nuclear tests can generate vibrations similar to earthquakes as well.

Significance for Climate Change (Encyclopedia of Global Warming)
Concerns have been raised that climate change may lead to earthquakes in Alaska, or elsewhere, and these concerns may not be entirely unwarranted. Many glaciers and ice sheets are located in regions of past or continuing geologic activity, where crustal movements are still taking place. Removal of ice cover during periods of global warming might be sufficient to activate ancient faults in these areas and set off earthquakes of considerable magnitude. The rate at which the ice melts may not need to be rapid to cause such activity. Rocks can build up strains over a period of years without breaking at all, until the tension is suddenly released in a devastating shock. Scientists describe this process as elastic rebound. While the rocks on either side of a fault slowly slide past each other, the fault itself may remain "locked," with no movement taking place. Meanwhile, the rock masses on both sides of the fault begin to stretch, in a fashion similar to the stretching of an elastic band. When the strain in the rocks becomes too great, the fault will break, and the rocks on either side will snap back to their original dimensions.
There is clear evidence that the removal of ice from the Earth's surface following the ice ages is causing significant upward movement of the crust in several places. In parts of Scotland, Scandinavia, and Canada, the amount of rise has been dramatic. Interior Scandinavia has risen...

New Way of Detecting Exomoons Broadens Search for Extraterrestrial Life
So far, the search for extraterrestrial life beyond our solar system has focused on finding Earth-like planets. And sure, planets are great, since we know at least one of them harbors life. But David Kipping of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics thinks that search might be a tad too narrow. In a new paper, Kipping described how current technology can be re-tasked to search for another life-bearing body: moons.
Looking for extraterrestrial life on moons is nothing new. After all, the search for alien life within our solar system generally focuses on Jupiter's ice moon Europa. However, this is the first time anyone has proposed looking for moons with life outside of our solar system.
The method suggested in the paper involves measuring changes in the orbit of large planets caused by the presence of moons. A similar technique, detecting the wobble of stars by the gravity of large planets, lead to the discovery of the first planets outside our solar system. This just refines that technique to smaller bodies. The paper identifies 25,000 stars close enough and visible enough to warrant further inspect, with a goal of finding a moon as small as 20 percent the size of Earth, and as large as our planet.
Of course, in the event that they find a habitable moon, we have to make sure it's not inhabited by annoying, ursine guerrillas, as they seem to be able to defeat an entire legion of the Emperor's best troops with nothing but sticks and rocks. Those are some aliens you don't want to mess with.
(1) We find Earth-size rock with possible life 10 years from now.
(2) We build giant lazer and start zapping prime numbers at them in 20 years.
(3) They get the message in 120 years.
(4) They happen to be devopled enough to notice it on a tiny rock far, far away.
(5) They build their own lazer and start replying.
(6) 190 years from now we get the first reply.
(7) For 100 years we are just trying to sync up and start developing a base language.
(8) 300 years from now we have the first true interstelluar conversation - just don't ask a question you can't wait 200 years to answer - instead, just keep shipping each other all your culture, tech, and history and maybe, after a few hundred more years, you will begin to understand life on another planet that no human will ever see.
The interesting thing about the possibility of habitable moons is that we've already found gas giants in the habitable zones of other stars. Considering that most of them found so far are bigger than Jupiter, they might have more total mass in their moon systems, as well, meaning possibly larger moons than our gas giants. In our solar system, Saturn's moon Titan has an atmosphere and is bigger than the planet Mercury. Perhaps a larger moon than Titan (maybe Mars-sized or larger) orbiting a gas giant in the habitable zone of one of another star could support an earth-like biosphere, instead of Titan's frozen methane atmosphere. For a fictional example of one of these exomoons (discounting the moon of Endor), you might refer to Allen Steele's Coyotes series, set on a hypothetical moon of the real gas giant 47 Ursae Majoris B. Given how common gas giants appear to be, and how many moons ours have, it's possible that there may be more habitable moons than habitable planets like earth.
but what happens if the laser is calibrated wrong and instead of communicating, we accidently start vaporizing everyone on that planet. we might end up in the first ever interstellar war when they start start shooting back.
yeh, like if they built tech in the 190 years that was easily fucked up by red light coz it doesnt exist in their system or something, and we accidentaly brought down their internet. then they`ed try to kill the stupid species that pissed them off so much by making them have to do work coz they cant play quantum solitare at work anymore.
i know i would
Hmmm, drunk postings, anyone?
Anyway, on a serious note, there are some potential life-supporting advantages to moons orbiting gas giants. For starters, we know that in the Jupiter system of moons, tidal heating keeps the subsurface of Europa a vast liquid ocean, as it feels tugs from the other moons and Jupiter itself. The same effect makes its sister moon Io the most volcanic object in our solar system. A little closer in to the parent star, and the moon of an extrasolar gas giant could have its habitable zone expanded by heating from plate tectonics and resulting volcanoes and hot springs. Also, the presence of plate tectonics on a body smaller than Earth (which probably would not exist without tidal assistance) could keep the carbon cycling, rather than becoming locked into rocks as in Mars, or in a runaway greenhouse effect like Venus (neither of which have active plate techtonics).
On the down side, Europa and Io exist within Jupiter's deadly radiation belts, so if such radiation belts are present around most of the extrasolar gas giants, their moons probably won't have habitable surfaces unless they are in orbits outside (or possibly inside, if the belts extend out far enough)these belts. There is also the problem with tidal locking, in which a moon is forced to keep one side facing the planet it orbits as the larger body's gravity slows the rotation of the moon to match its orbital period. This would make for some very long day/night cycles if the moon had a fairly slow orbit around its planet. However, a moon orbiting out beyond the radiation belts of the gas giant might not be tidally locked if it orbits far enough away. Or, if it is closer in but orbits fast enough, the day/night cycle might not be so long as to present a problem for photosynthesis or a stable climate.
At any rate, you'd have a pretty stunning view of the sky from one of these moons. Guess Star Wars might have gotten some of the science right after all.
<Im Awsome>lol The thing a bout extraterrestrial life is we can never come to the conclusion of their being no extraterrestrial life forms becaus following the belief of the universe being endless there could be an endless amount of life bearing planets in distant glaxies

Wimbledon Bookfest draws to a close with Darcey Bussell and Roddy Doyle
6:00am Saturday 12th October 2013 in Leisure By Charlotte Goodwin, Reporter
Wimbledon's annual BookFest will welcome its final literary events this weekend.
The two-week-long festival has already staged a variety of events to entertain audiences including Michael Palin exploring Brazil, Joanna Tollope with her adaption of Sense and Sensibility and David and Carry Grant giving children a musical experience.
Fiona Razvi, festival director, said: "We have had a more diverse audience than we have ever had before and we have more exciting things for people to come along to this weekend."
This weekend the festival will be joined by Roddy Doyle whose musical The Commitments recently opened in the West End.
Darcey Bussell will reveal the stories behind her collection of photographs and on Saturday Wimbledon Common will stage comedy evening starring Shappi Khorsandi.
Children and family events include magic and music from actor David Wood, jokes and fun from comedian Tim Vine.
BookFest would not be complete without a visit from The Wombles who will share story-telling and singing with writer and musician Julian Butler.
Ms Razvi said some of her highlights had been the school events and Wayne Hemmingway's talk to students about creative industries during the festival.
Bookfest is a community driven project largely run by volunteers.
To get involved visit wimbledonbookfest.org where you can support the project by becoming a friend and benefit from special ticket rates, launch party invitations, free programmes and regular e-newsletters.

Local newspapers help sew Ireland's cultural fabric - the importance of regional press at a community level

- Why reform is needed in the Irish Senate over abolition - realizing the Seanad's 'real potential'
Local newspapers are vital to Ireland's communities |
I've always been a news junkie. But more than anything else, I'm a local news junkie. Considering that I live 3,000 miles from where I was born and raised on Boston's southern fringe, I am lucky to be able to access the local newspapers I grew up reading – the Milton Times, Patriot Ledger and Dorchester Reporter foremost among them – online. Perusing them regularly and conveying what I glean from them to my father on the phone often leads him to retort that I know more about what's going on at home than he does.
Local newspapers play a vital role in the communities they are based in. To a far greater extent than national or even regional newspapers, the reporters who staff them have their "ears to the ground" and understand what is important to local people.
As such, and in addition to writing stories about what would ordinarily be regarded as newsworthy, local newspapers are close enough to communities that they cover important milestones and events in the lives of local people. These milestones and events – from births to first communions to 50th wedding anniversary celebrations; from sporting triumphs to town elections to unfortunate tragedies – are newsworthy to the people who live through them. Local newspapers give these milestones and events their pride of place.
It is with this unrepentant bias that I have truly enjoyed this week's celebration of local newspapers in Ireland. As An Taoiseach (Irish prime minister) Enda Kenny observed in his remarks to launch Local Newspaper Week, "[W]eek after week, our people depend on their local newspapers to provide an accurate perspective on issues of national interest. And every week they deliver; fulfilling the responsibility of meeting the highest journalistic standards and breaking stories of public interest. Anyone who has practised politics in Ireland knows the important role played by local papers and the unique trust and bond Irish communities have with their local papers."
And the statistics provide ample evidence to support the Taoiseach's view. 76% of Irish households purchase their local paper at least once a month. 95% of Irish people read the local paper in households where there is one available. They read local papers for 69 minutes on average, as compared to reading national newspapers for just 29 minutes on average. What's more, in excess of 70% of Irish people agree that the local newspaper plays an important role in their community and that it is a tradition to have the local newspaper in the house.
The story of just one local newspaper, the Tuam Herald, is instructive and was featured on an RTÉ (Ireland's national radio and television broadcaster) programme, Nationwide, highlighting Local Newspaper Week. The Herald, coincidentally, is celebrating its 175th anniversary this year. The family-owned and run paper has an extraordinary history with which I am somewhat familiar, given my own north Galway background. What I wasn't aware of, however, is that it has been a breeding ground for a number of Ireland's most high profile and legendary journalists.
RTÉ's recently retired Western Editor, Jim Fahy, cut his journalistic teeth at the Tuam Herald. To Irish people, Fahy is synonymous with the West, where he is revered for his common touch and folksy manner. Additionally, the Herald boasts the distinction of launching the careers of two future editors of Ireland's two premier broadsheet newspapers: the Irish Times and the Irish Independent. Kevin O'Sullivan, present editor of the Times, and Gerry O'Regan, former editor of the Independent, both started out in journalism at the Tuam Herald. They were interviewed for the programme and were lavish in their praise for the on the job training they received while working at the Herald and attribute their subsequent success to their earlier work at this local institution.
As prominent Irish journalists whose careers began at local newspapers, O'Sullivan and O'Regan are the rule, not the exception. And these journalists' loyalty to their roots is unflinching. For instance, Harry McGee of the Irish Times, one of the country's most respected political writers, remains a weekly contributor on politics in the West of Ireland to the local newspaper that he once worked for, the Connacht Tribune.
Yet in the midst of this week that celebrates all that is great about local newspapers, it would be foolhardy to ignore the significant challenges they face. Like all newspapers, local papers have struggled to develop a strategy to deal with the reality that so many people, particularly young people, now turn to the internet to get their news. Experts discussed the undeniable conundrum presented by this irreversible trend at a conference earlier this week.
The discussion centred on two views as to the appropriate model. One is that local newspapers should make their content freely available online and seek to capitalise on advertising revenue generated by traffic to their websites, especially now that so many young Irish men and women have emigrated, but still want to keep abreast of what's happening at home. The other is that local newspapers should install paywalls, and ask visitors to their websites to subscribe to view their content. The second view banks heavily on the fact that people are now accustomed to shopping and paying for goods and services online.
Each model has its pluses and minuses. But the fact that newspapers around the world have succeeded using either of the two or a combination of the two is encouraging. Moreover, the strong and resilient culture of printed newspaper buying in Ireland augurs well for the future.
When I first moved to Ireland, the local newspaper in Galway, the Connacht Tribune, was a valuable source of information about my new home. All these years later, it still is. And the local newspapers I read every week online serve as a virtual bridge across the Atlantic to my old home. Judging by the requests I field before trips back to Boston from Irish emigrant friends, I know that they feel the same way.
In sum, local newspapers help to bind the ties that people have to their communities, no matter if they have never left, or if they are half a world away. Long may they prosper.

@Larry - well written and well said. I also enjoy reading my hometown paper for local news about my small rural Midwest community. It's a breath of fresh air from the regional paper I read. The local paper often has historical, personal, and informative articles - ones that are rarely found in national papers because they're so specific to that community. Having grown up on a 1000 acre farm, I read about the land/livestock sales in the area: who bought and sold and for how much. I know who married, died, or had a baby. It's the local paper that keeps me in touch with the community I grew up in, no matter how far away I live from it. I always look forward to reading about what's going on with everyone "back home."

Hit: Rachel Bilson wears playful take on menswear
Dis: We love Nelly but here comes the constructive dis…The bowed mesh heels are adorable, but all wrong with this dress. The subtle gold belt would be best in black patent for a truly '50s feel. And although the red floral dress is lovely, its length doesn't do her any favours. Your hem should always fall to the thinnest part of your leg – usually right above or below the knee – otherwise your leg appears thicker than it truly is.
Hit: The Canadian actress Sara Chalke wearing Pink and Red.
Hit: Cate Blanchette wearing Givenchy Resort Collection. The contradicting blouse has it all with a prim and proper buttoned up collar and fluttering sleeves in stark black versus white. Paired with a paisley pencil skirt, these unusual combinations are divine, made only better by a sleek deep side part and seriously smoky eyes.
Dis: This maxi skirt and crop top combo has potential but it's not exactly well made. In a lighter fabric, the skirt train could flow, but it's folding under the heavy weight, looking more like dated raver wear than red carpet cool.
