Jul 31, 2009 in
Hurricane
My mom and her friend just started an on-line hurricane supply website it has generators, first aid kits for any where from single person to 16 people first aid kits and children and animal first aid kits, crank tv/radio, flashlights, candles, batteries of all sizes, lanterns, helpful hints, and connects with a broward county top of the line tree service for before or after the storm.
Its something they built with helping others on their minds. We haven’t had any hits and i wanna do my part in helping her. She wants me to advertise as much as possible on-line without spending a dime. Can you help.
Maybe if you have any suggestions on souping up the page you can check it out at www.onestophurricaneshop.net

It was a minor quake and I know Illinois is at high risk for them, and not just because of the New Madrid Fault but many other ones too. It was a little shake and last year I hear a sonic boom and the power went out, so if you did feel the quake that just happened right now go here: http://pasadena.wr.usgs.gov/shake/cus/html/unknown_form.html

Does Minnesota have a fault line?
Jul 31, 2009 in
Earthquake Questions
I heard through the grape vine that there is a fault line deep down in the crust in the southern central part if minnesota near mankato. I don’t know if ths is true or not, but it is part of a snow belt that we have herethat always gets hit hard with snow every year. Just wondering if they are not possibly a hundred percent true.
we, as land based, feel the impact and danger of the tsunami, but how are marine life animals effected if even affected at all? do even deep sea animals know the impact and difference in the water of the tsunami?

Silly question, but would opening all the doors and windows in my house (presumably with me not in it ) theoretically prevent it from being taken by a tornado?

When an earthquake occurs…?
Jul 30, 2009 in
Earthquake Questions
When an earthquake occurs, two types of sound waves are generated and travel through the earth. The primary, or P, wave has a speed of about 8.0 km/s and the secondary, or S, wave has a speed of about 4.5 km/s. A seismograph, located some distance away, records the arrival of the P wave and then, 78 s later, records the arrival of the S wave. Assuming that the waves travel in a straight line, how far is the seismograph from the earthquake?
Can you tell me how you did it if you get this? Thanks!

how are inmates kept safe when something like this happens? Does anyone care or just figure that if they did they crime this is their punishment?
Criminal or not, every human has the right to be safe.

Semi bright flashes in the sky?
Jul 29, 2009 in
Earthquake Questions
in the last month or so, I’ve seen several flashes that lit up the entire night sky on three different occasions. The last time I saw a group of three randomly spaced flashes accompanied by a low pitch, brief humming sound that reached me about 5 seconds later. About twenty minutes later there was an earthquake. I looked up earthquake flashes and they are said to look like auroras, but the flashes i saw were completely even in brightness over the whole sky, unlike auroras. Anyone have any ideas what they might be?

Earthquake Questions
my room is currently filled with my gymnastics memorabilia on my walls– all walls except for that one annoying blank spot above my day bed. i’m hesitant to put a huge picture frame there incase of an earthquake. so far i’ve been taping pictures of me and my friends, but it looks a bit tacky. i just need some good creative ideas for that wall above my bed.
thanks
