why not have available a heavy duty adjustable timer to turn off at night since most people do not need for 10 hours?
this would be like every one turning off eqivalent of
800 (60 watt) light bulbs.

sure it may take 2 hours to heat up but we save 8 hours of energy.

could you imagine the savings of hydro demand.

I remember there was an episode called "Wedding Headlock", which I never saw, I must admit, I guess I do sort of feel bad for Hogan because I heard Linda mentioned on the show that she was thinking about leaving him.

1. _____ are also known as "L waves." Compressional waves Shear waves
Surface waves Transverse waves

2. A single seismogram locates the _____ of an earthquake. epicenter focus
plate boundary none of these

3. Which statement about the cause of building collapse during an earthquake is FALSE? Buildings on bedrock survive earthquakes better than buildings on soil. Most buildings can survive horizontal shaking better than vertical shaking.
Soils under buildings may settle from severe shaking. Some soils under buildings become liquefied because of severe shaking.

4. The part of the seismograph that moves during an earthquake is the: base drum
pen record sheet

5. Which best describes foundation damage? The foundation cracks during the earthquake Buildings built on soil sink due to settling after an earthquake
The foundation is not strong enough to withstand the earthquake waves even though the building is none of these

6. The place in the Earth where the earthquake actually occurs is known as the _____. epicenter focus
plate boundary none of these

7. The point on the surface of the Earth directly above where the earthquake actually occurs is the _____. epicenter focus
plate boundary none of these

8. What are the two major causes of structural damage during an earthquake? ground shaking and flooding foundation failure and flooding
ground shaking and foundation failure none of these

9. Why might cloudy water be indicative of an upcoming earthquake? cloudy water has low sediment content, which may indicate an upcoming earthquake cloudy water has high sediment content, which may indicate an upcoming earthquake
cloudy water indicates an increase in elevation, which may indicate earth movement none of these

10. Why are multiple seismographs needed to properly measure the magnitude of an earthquake? because each seismograph measures a particular type of wave because one seismograph can only determine how far away the epicenter is, not in which direction
both of these neither of these

11. Why are earthquakes generally more destructive than volcanoes? They are caused by plate motions Earthquakes are always accompanied by tsunamis
The area affected by an earthquake is larger They occur only in populated areas

12. What is the name of the scale used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake? the epicenter scale the elastic-rebound scale
the fault scale the Richter scale

epicenter fault

14. Which is the most accurate measurement of an earthquake's magnitude? Richter Scale seismic moment scale

15. How many seismograms are needed to locate the epicenter of an earthquake? 1 2
3 4

16. Earthquakes that cause damage over larger areas are most likely to have occurred at: collision boundaries diverging boundaries
sliding boundaries subduction boundaries

17. Why did the Alaskan earthquake of 1964 have a higher seismic moment than the San Francisco earthquake of 1906? because it caused more damage because it had a higher Richter rating as well
because it released more total energy none of these

18. Which of the following is indicative of an upcoming earthquake? a decrease in elevation an increase in resistance
a clear water well none of these

19. This type of wave is the most dangerous. compressional waves shear waves
transverse waves surface waves

20. _____ are also known as "P waves." Compressional waves Shear waves
Transverse waves Surface waves

21. The part of a seismograph that does NOT move during an earthquake is the: base drum
pen record sheet

22. Which of the following is the major cause of earthquakes? the motion of lithospheric plates an erupting volcano
a collapsing cavern the impact of a meteor

23. One seismograph station, by itself, can determine the: direction to the epicenter location of the epicenter
distance to the epicenter location of the plate boundary

24. What is the name of the theory about the cause of earthquakes? the epicenter theory the elastic-rebound theory
the fault theory the Richter theory

25. A seismograph left on the moon could be used to determine: the thickness of the moon's lithosphere the exact distance between Earth and the moon
the composition of the moon's atmosphere the gravitational force between Earth and the moon

26. A state with little need for reliable earthquake forecasts is: Alaska California
Missouri Wyoming

27. How many earthquakes occur every year? one thousand one hundred thousand
one million one hundred million

28. This type of wave produces vertical motion and travels only through rock. compressional waves shear waves
transverse waves surface waves

29. Expansion and contraction of the rock material through which a wave passes is a characteristic of: compressional waves shear waves
transverse waves surface waves

30. _____ are also known as "S waves." Compressional waves Shear waves
Transverse waves Surface waves

I'm making oatmeal muffins, and thinking about adding some cranberries from my freezer.
I know from making sauce that the berries have to pop to absorb sugar and become tasty.
Will the bake time in the oven be long enough for them to sweeten?
And if so, my recipe makes 2 dozen muffins. How much cranberry should I add?
Thanks for any advice.

So, met a girl last weekend, spent a few hours getting to know each other, and we kissed a few times goodbye. She lives 90mins away and was in town visiting a relative. Talked to her a few days later and had a good a conversation with her we said we wanted to see each other this weekend and we haven't decided if I'm going up there or if she's coming down here again. I live in a condo in the city (bars, restaurants, theatres...you name it) and she lives in a house in the country. She didn't seem to mind coming down again... how would you work this date?
