snark Forum Administrator User ID: 6788036 United States 03/20/2012 03:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Update : GOOD preliminary news : Only light damage is currently reported out of the epicenter area. Based on our own experience, we think it is far too soon to have a final estimate, but after such an earthquake, we like to hear that the damage is not general. Quoting: Luisport - Update : A concrete walkway bridge has collapsed on a microbus. No reports yet about victims. Some people have been hospitalized by a nervous breakdown. - Update : Everybody in the country could be found on the streets after evacuating houses and buildings. The situation on the roads of the bigger cities is simply chaotic. Everybody wants to drive back home. [link to earthquake-report.com] Thanks! T For Texas, T For Tennessee! The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |

MrRumpleSteelskin User ID: 12851643 United States 03/20/2012 03:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't usually post dream related stuff, but last night I had a dream that I was trying to navigate through collapsed multicolored concrete rubble. The color scheme is what really stood out with deep orange and red like what you would see in central and South America. When I woke up (due to my insane crackhead neighbor yelling outside like she does every other night) I just chalked it up to all the earthquake talk recently. I don't know about this being some kind of premonition, but it sure is interesting. Thought I'd share. If I have another dream with a similar feel, I'll post about it. There may very well be something to this 188 day cycle thing after all.... Quoting: MrRumpleSteelskin *Corrected. I have a migraine today, as well. I'm more susceptible to bad writing when my head feels like it's being squeezed in a vice. |

The depth has been recalculated to 20 km. All this explains the lesser than originally expected intensity. [link to earthquake-report.com] |

These points of intersection are called equinoctial points: classically, the vernal point and the autumnal point. By extension, the term equinox may denote an equinoctial point. An equinox happens each year at two specific moments in time (rather than two whole days), when there is a location (the subsolar point) on the Earth's equator, where the center of the Sun can be observed to be vertically overhead, occurring around 20 March and 22 September each year.

Butterfly User ID: 3705 Netherlands 03/20/2012 04:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Equinox THAT IS TODAY! An equinox occurs twice a year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is inclined neither away from nor towards the Sun, the center of the Sun being in the same plane as the Earth's equator. The term equinox can also be used in a broader sense, meaning the date when such a passage happens. The name "equinox" is derived from the Latin aequus (equal) and nox (night), because around the equinox, the night and day have approximately equal length.

I realize Mexico City seems to be okay, but is there damage where the earthquake actually struck? Quoting: snark Remote farming town of Ometepec. It may be a while until we get much in the way or reports about damage to buildings. Fortunately Luisport has information that there were few reported injuries. I Support Our First Responders |
